Synthesis and Physicochemical Stability of a Copaiba Balsam Oil (Copaifera sp.) Nanoemulsion and Prospecting of Toxicological Effects on the Nematode Caenorhabditis elegans.

Nanoemulsions are dispersions of oil-in-water (O/W) and water-in-oil (W/O) immiscible liquids. Thus, our main goal was to formulate a nanoemulsion with low surfactant concentrations and outstanding stability using Copaiba balsam oil (Copaifera sp.). The high-energy cavitation homogenization with low Tween 80 levels was employed. Then, electrophoretic and physical mobility properties were assessed, in addition to a one- and two-year physicochemical characterization studies assessment. Copaiba balsam oil and nanoemulsions obtained caryophyllene as a major constituent. The nanoemulsions stored at 4 ± 2 °C exhibited better physical stability. Two years after formulation, the nanoemulsion showed a reduction in the particle size. The size underwent changes in gastric, intestinal, and blood pH, and the PdI was not changed. In FTIR, characteristic bands of sesquiterpenes and overlapping bands were detected. When subjected to freezing and heating cycles, nanoemulsions did not show macroscopic changes in higher concentrations. Nanoemulsions subjected to centrifuge force by 1000 rpm do not show macroscopic instability and phase inversion or destabilization characteristics when diluted. Therefore, the nanoemulsion showed stability for long-term storage. The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans was used to assess the potential toxicity of nanoemulsions. The nanoemulsion did not cause toxicity in the animal model, except in the highest concentration tested, which decreased the defecation cycle interval and body length. The toxicity and stability outcomes reinforce the nanoemulsions' potential for future studies to explore pharmacological mechanisms in superior experimental designs.

Dynamics of magnetic inhomogeneity in La2CoMnO6 films probed by Raman spectroscopy.

We report the dynamic effects of magnetic inhomogeneity on the temperature evolution of the Raman modes in polycrystalline La2CoMnO6 (LCMO) films. The LCMO films were obtained via chemical solution deposition and annealed at different temperatures, 700, 800 and 900 °C. Temperature-dependent Raman spectroscopic studies uncover anomalous phonon energy behaviors, associated with strong spin-phonon couplings revealed even at ambient conditions. This effect, which is observed to occur well above ferromagnetic ordering temperature is ascribed to short-range Mn4+/Co2+ ferromagnetic clusters. Moreover, our study has shown that spin-phonon coupling strength is governed by competing antiferromagnetic (AFM) and ferromagnetic (FM) interactions. These results significantly enhance the understanding of the complex spin-phonon coupling mechanism to provide insights into magnetic inhomogeneity in systems with two or more magnetic sublattices. These findings suggest the presence of similar effects in other double perovskites within the RE2CoMnO6 (RE = rare earths) family, which exhibit analogous magnetic sublattice and order-disorder defects.

Factors Associated with Hypersensitivity, Management, and Treatment Options for Teeth with Molar Incisor Hypomineralisation.

Tooth hypersensitivity is a common symptom in molar incisor hypomineralisation (MIH) patients and can affect children's quality of life. During daily routine, children with MIH often report sensitivity to various thermal and mechanical stimuli, and difficulty in achieving effective analgesia is a common issue becoming a challenge for dentists. Research has focused on the possible pathophysiological mechanisms behind this phenomenon, which, in turn, have not been determined. Even with the apparently intact enamel of MIH-teeth, the porosity of the hypomineralised enamel acts as an open door for the invasion of oral microorganisms, which reach the dentinal tubules, and stimulate subclinical inflammatory reactions in the pulp. Tissue inflammation may, in turn, lead to morphological and cytochemical changes within sensory neurons, resulting in sensitization of these nerve fibers. This phenomenon is complex, and the treatment modalities focus on inflammation management followed by tubule obliteration by using different materials and technologies. In conclusion, this chapter reviews the concept and etiology of hypersensitivity in teeth with MIH and summarizes the clinical management according to the best evidence available.

Impact of Molar Incisor Hypomineralisation on Quality of Life.

Oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) is a multifaceted concept that surpasses an exclusively clinical perception and includes functional, social, emotional, and environmental issues. The measure of OHRQoL represents a holistic approach for research and clinical practice. Negative impacts of oral conditions on OHRQoL in childhood can reflect on health development, especially in a life stage marked by social and cognitive maturation. Therefore, such problems can impact negatively on the daily lives of the individuals and their families. Individuals with molar incisor hypomineralisation (MIH) experience more frequent posteruptive breakdown, an elevated risk of tooth decay, filling failures, the need for recurrent dental treatment, and a higher prevalence of dental hypersensitivity. Children with severe MIH may struggle with everyday activities, such as brushing their teeth, speaking, smiling, chewing, and consuming hot or cold foods. MIH-affected incisors may exhibit opacities that can impact the aesthetics of their smiles. This condition may discourage children from smiling and can indirectly affect their parents as well. The management modalities are focused on solving functional, aesthetic, and hypersensitivity problems and to evaluate OHRQoL values before and after therapies. Therefore, this chapter aims to discuss how MIH affects the OHRQoL of children and the questionnaires that can be used to evaluate that impact.

Detection and Analysis of Florfenicol Residues and Metabolites in Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) Tissues Post-Oral Administration in Tropical Waters.

Water temperature is a critical environmental parameter that significantly influences fish metabolism. This study assessed the metabolism of florfenicol (FF) in tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) at water temperatures typical of tropical and subtropical regions. Fish were treated with FF by oral administration of a dose of 10 mg kg-1 bw for 10 consecutive days. Fish fillet, liver, and kidney were sampled during the treatment phase (1, 5, and 10 days) and posttreatment (1, 2, 3, and 5 days after the last FF administration). FF, florfenicol amine (FFA), monochloro florfenicol (FFCl), and florfenicol alcohol (FFOH) were determined in the sampled tissues using a validated LC-LC-MS/MS method. The highest FF, FFA, and FFOH concentrations were determined on day 5 during the treatment phase. For FF, the concentration order is kidney > liver > fillet, while for the metabolites FFOH and FFA, the order is liver > kidney > fillet. In fillet and liver, the concentrations of FFOH were higher than the FFA concentrations, indicating that FFOH was the primary metabolite in these tissues. FFCl was only quantified at concentrations lower than 90 µg kg-1 in all tissues. The results indicated that FF can be readily absorbed and rapidly eliminated in tilapia cultivated in warm water environments. This study revealed FFOH as the primary and most persistent metabolite in tilapia farmed in warm water, followed by FFA.

Evaluation of Antimicrobial Resistance Patterns of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Strains Isolated among COVID-19 Patients in Brazil Typed by Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy.

This study aimed to characterize Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains isolated from hospitalized patients during the COVID-19 pandemic. This was achieved using phenotypic and molecular techniques, including their antimicrobial resistance profile and biofilm formation. Eighteen strains were isolated from a hospital in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and identified by VITEK®2, MALDI-TOF/MS (VITEK MS® and MALDI Biotyper®), and 16S rRNA sequencing. Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, antimicrobial susceptibility testing, and biofilm formation and disinfectant tolerance tests were applied to evaluate the virulence characteristics of the strains. VITEK®2 (≥99%), VITEK MS® (≥82.7%), and MALDI Biotyper® (score ≥ 2.01) accurately identified the P. aeruginosa strains, but 16S rRNA sequencing did not differentiate the species P. aeruginosa from P. paraeruginosa. FTIR typing identified three different clusters, but no correlation between the phenotypical or antimicrobial susceptibility testing patterns was found. Most strains exhibited resistance to various antimicrobials. The exceptions were sensitivity to amikacin and norfloxacin, and consequently, these could be considered potential treatment options. Most strains (n = 15, 83.3%) produced biofilms on polystyrene. Sodium hypochlorite treatment (0.5%/15 min) was shown to be the most effective disinfectant for biofilm elimination. P. aeruginosa biofilm formation and tolerance to disinfectants demonstrate the need for effective cleaning protocols to eliminate contamination by this organism in the hospital environment and medical equipment.

Cannabis Uses in Dentistry: A Bibliometric Analysis.

Background: This bibliometric review seeks to understand metrics of papers, authors, journals, and universities, about the benefits of the therapeutic application of Cannabis sativa (CS), as well as the most harmful effects associated to its use. Methods: The main search strategy applied to the topic was conducted in Web Of Science Core Collection on February 2024. A crossmatch of the number of citations was performed in Scopus and Google Scholar. The analyses were carried out in VOSviewer and Altmetric for PubMed and Google Scholar. Results: Of a total of 196 records, 53 articles were included for analysis. There were 25 publications on either therapeutic or harmful effects. In the ranking of subjects, those of greatest interest were general oral health and periodontics, with 53% of the total. The most cited paper was authored by Thomson et al. (2008) with 85 citations, allowing the University of Otago to be the most cited. Although JAMA was the most cited journal, in the dental field this corresponded to the Journal of Clinical Periodontology. In relation to the distribution by country, the United States received the largest number of citations and New Zealand second. Related to dentistry, in the cluster analysis, keywords more occurrent were "periodontal disease" and "periodontitis". Conclusions: In the past 4 years, there has been a superlative growth in CS papers related to oral health effects. This growth follows the social and political events related to CS legalization in some countries and reveals that the use of CS in dentistry is an emerging research field.

Prevalence of hypomineralized second primary molars and association with socioeconomic characteristics and dental caries in a Brazilian population of preschoolers: a cross-sectional study.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the prevalence of hypomineralized second primary molar (HSPM) and its association with socioeconomic characteristics and dental caries in a Brazilian population of preschoolers. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 603 preschoolers, enrolled in public preschools in Itajaí (state of Santa Catarina, Brazil), took part in the study. To assess the participants' socio-economic characteristics, an original questionnaire was formulated and sent to the children's parents. The clinical evaluation was carried out by a calibrated examiner using the deft/DMFT index for dental caries and Ghanim et al. (Ghanim et al., Eur Arch Paediatr Dent, 2015) criteria for HSPM. The data were analyzed through Poisson regression, using STATA statistical software, and the association analyses were presented by prevalence ratios (PR). RESULTS: The prevalence of at least one HSPM-affected second molar was 24.5%. The prevalence of HSPM was associated to the city's geographical regions of the Educational hubs (p < 0.001). A significant association was found between dental caries and HSPM (p = 0.003; PR: 1.31; 95% CI 1.09-1.56). Children with HSPM were 31% more likely to experience dental caries than children without HSPM. Geographical regions of educational hubs were also significantly associated with HSPM (p < 0.001). None of the socioeconomic characteristics was associated with HSPM (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION: HSPM is a common developmental defect of enamel in children in our study. The HSPM distribution was associated with the city's geographic regions. Children with HSPM are more likely to experience dental caries. Socioeconomic characteristics were not associated with HSPM.

Anterior tibial tendon transfer in idiopathic clubfoot: pull-out vs. other fixations - a systematic review.

PURPOSE: Review the literature and describe the complications associated with each of the anterior tibial tendon transfer (ATTT) techniques described. METHODS: A systematic review of the literature was performed with the keywords ''clubfoot'', ''Ponseti'' and ''anterior tibial''. Studies in patients with clubfoot recurrence, who underwent ATTT, whose method of tendon fixation was different from the classical method, were included. RESULTS: Six studies were included in this systematic review, which described multiple techniques for tibialis anterior fixation: bone anchors, interference screws, endobotton, K-wires, transosseous suture, and suture to the plantar fascia. In the papers that described postoperative complications, no major complications were reported, however the samples are generally small. CONCLUSION: Several options have now emerged for tendon fixation in tendon transfers around the foot and ankle, including ATTT for treatment of relapsed clubfoot. To our knowledge this is the first paper that questioned the potential complications associated with the use of these new techniques. Due to the scarcity of published works in favor of other fixation methods, we believe that the traditional method is the optimal one for the transfer of the tendon of the tibialis anterior muscle.

Additionally, a first record of M. quadridentata from Brazil is presented.

Effectiveness of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy in the treatment of peri-implantitis: systematic review and meta-analysis.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the current scientific evidence on the effectiveness of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) as an adjunctive treatment to mechanical debridement in the treatment of peri-implantitis. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses was followed. A protocol was registered in the International Prospective Registry of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO #CRD42022361684). The search was carried out in seven databases, with no restrictions regarding language or year of publication. Our work included studies that compared clinical periodontal parameters between individuals treated with mechanical debridement associated with aPDT and a control group of patients who had undergone mechanical debridement alone. Study selection, data extraction, and risk of bias assessment (RoB 2.0) were performed by two review authors. Meta-analysis was performed. The mean difference (MD) and a 95% confidence interval (CI) were provided. Four hundred and seven-four studies were identified, of which five studies were included. The meta-analysis demonstrated that aPDT adjunctive to mechanical debridement in subjects with peri-implantitis resulted in greater reduction in probing depth 3 months after treatment than among subjects receiving treatment with mechanical debridement. Most of the included studies exhibit a low risk of bias. Adjunctive aPDT to mechanical debridement contributes to the improvement of peri-implant clinical parameters in individuals with peri-implantitis, in particular probing depth.

The COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil: space-time approach of cases, deaths, and vaccination coverage (February 2020 - April 2024).

OBJECTIVE: To assess the evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil and its macro-regions, considering disease incidence and mortality rates, as well as identifying territories with still rising disease indices and evaluating vaccine coverage and population adherence to COVID-19 immunization. METHODS: An ecological study conducted in Brazil with COVID-19 cases and deaths reported between February 2020 and April 2024, obtained through the Coronavirus Panel. Historical series were constructed from incidence and mortality rates to assess the pandemic's evolution, and temporal trends were estimated using the Seasonal Trend Decomposition using Loess (STL) method. The Spatial Variation in Temporal Trends (SVTT) technique was employed to identify clusters with significant variations in temporal trends. Vaccination was analyzed considering the percentage of vaccinated and unvaccinated population in each municipality of the country. RESULTS: Brazil recorded a total of 38,795,966 cases and 712,038 deaths from COVID-19 during the study period. Incidence and mortality rates showed three waves of the disease, with a fourth wave of smaller amplitude. Four clusters with significant case growth and two with increased deaths were identified. Vaccine coverage varied among municipalities, with some regions showing low vaccination rates and others with high immunization adherence. CONCLUSION: The study provided a comprehensive overview of coronavirus behavior in Brazil, and its results highlight the ongoing importance of vaccination and the need to direct efforts and resources to areas of higher risk.

Seroprevalence and risk factors for Neospora caninum and Toxoplasma gondii in dairy cattle from São Paulo State, Brazil.

Neospora caninum is a major cause of reproductive loss in cattle worldwide as it leads to abortion and animal repositioning. Although Toxoplasma gondii does not cause a reproductive problem in cattle, consuming raw or uncooked beef poses the risk of transmission. This study aimed to evaluate the occurrence of anti-N. caninum and anti-T. gondii antibodies in dairy cattle in the West and Northwest regions of São Paulo State, Brazil. A total of 653 serum samples from dairy cows were analyzed using an indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA). Epidemiological data from the farms were associated with the serological results of the animals by logistic regression based on the presence of antibodies. The frequencies of the antibodies against N. caninum and T. gondii were 41.6% (272/653) and 11.5% (75/653), respectively. A statistically significant association was observed between: the serum anti-N. caninum antibodies and breed, history of food supplementation for calves, introduction of outside animals that later presented reproductive problems, and history of reproductive problems by the trimester of gestation. The present study highlights the importance of neosporosis in dairy cattle in the study regions and that the inclusion of this parasite in the investigation of animals with reproductive disorders is important.

Long-read RNA-Seq for the discovery of long noncoding and antisense RNAs in plant organelles.

Plant organelle transcription has been studied for decades. As techniques advanced, so did the fields of mitochondrial and plastid transcriptomics. The current view is that organelle genomes are pervasively transcribed, irrespective of their size, content, structure, and taxonomic origin. However, little is known about the nature of organelle noncoding transcriptomes, including pervasively transcribed noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs). Next-generation sequencing data have uncovered small ncRNAs in the organelles of plants and other organisms, but long ncRNAs remain poorly understood. Here, we argue that publicly available third-generation long-read RNA sequencing data from plants can provide a fine-tuned picture of long ncRNAs within organelles. Indeed, given their bloated architectures, plant mitochondrial genomes are well suited for studying pervasive transcription of ncRNAs. Ultimately, we hope to showcase this new avenue of plant research while also underlining the limitations of the proposed approach.

Assessing biological self-organization patterns using statistical complexity characteristics: a tool for diffusion tensor imaging analysis.

OBJECT: Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) are well-known and powerful imaging techniques for MRI. Although DTI evaluation has evolved continually in recent years, there are still struggles regarding quantitative measurements that can benefit brain areas that are consistently difficult to measure via diffusion-based methods, e.g., gray matter (GM). The present study proposes a new image processing technique based on diffusion distribution evaluation of López-Ruiz, Mancini and Calbet (LMC) complexity called diffusion complexity (DC). MATERIALS AND METHODS: The OASIS-3 and TractoInferno open-science databases for healthy individuals were used, and all the codes are provided as open-source materials. RESULTS: The DC map showed relevant signal characterization in brain tissues and structures, achieving contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) gains of approximately 39% and 93%, respectively, compared to those of the FA and ADC maps. DISCUSSION: In the special case of GM tissue, the DC map obtains its maximum signal level, showing the possibility of studying cortical and subcortical structures challenging for classical DTI quantitative formalism. The ability to apply the DC technique, which requires the same imaging acquisition for DTI and its potential to provide complementary information to study the brain's GM structures, can be a rich source of information for further neuroscience research and clinical practice.

Evaluation of in vivo and in vitro efficacy of solasonine/solamargine-loaded lipid-polymer hybrid nanoparticles against bladder cancer.

Solasonine (SS) and solamargine (SM) are alkaloids known for their antioxidant and anticancer properties, which can be further enhanced by encapsulating them in nanoparticles. This led to a study on the potential therapeutic benefits of SS and SM against bladder cancer when encapsulated in lipid-polymer hybrid nanoparticles (LPHNP). The LPHNP loaded with SS/SM were prepared using the emulsion and sonication method and their physical-chemical properties characterized. The biological effects of these nanoparticles were then tested in both 2D and 3D bladder cancer cell culture models, as well as in a syngeneic orthotopic mouse model based on the MB49 cell line and ethanol epithelial injury. The LPHNP-SS/SM had an average size of 130 nm, a polydispersity index of 0.22 and a positive zeta potential, indicating the presence of chitosan coating on the nanoparticle surface. The dispersion of LPHNP-SS/SM was found to be monodispersed with a span index of 0.539, as measured by nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA). The recrystallization index, calculated from DSC data, was higher for the LPHNP-SS/SM compared to LPHNPs alone, confirming the presence of alkaloids within the lipid matrix. The encapsulation efficiency (EE%) was also high, with 91.08 % for SS and 88.35 % for SM. Morphological analysis by AFM and Cryo-TEM revealed that the nanoparticles had a spherical shape and core-shell structure. The study showed that the LPHNP-SS/SM exhibited mucoadhesive properties by physically interacting with mucin, suggesting a potential improvement in interaction with mucous membrane. Both the free and nanoencapsulated SS/SM demonstrated dose-dependent cytotoxicity against bladder cancer cell lines after 24 and 72 h of treatment. In 3D bladder cell culture, the nanoencapsulated SS/SM showed an IC50 two-fold lower than free SS/SM. In vivo studies, the LPHNP-SS/SM displayed an antitumoral effect at high doses, leading to a significant reduction in bladder volume compared to the positive control. However, there were observed instances of systemic toxicity and liver damage, indicated by elevated levels of transaminases (TGO and TGP). Overall, these results indicate that the LPHNPs effectively encapsulated SS/SM, showing high encapsulation efficiency and stability, along with promising in vitro and in vivo antitumoral effects against bladder cancer. Further evaluation of its systemic toxicity effects is necessary to ensure its safety and efficacy for potential clinical application.

Anatomical study of the safety corridor for bridge plating positioned on the lateral border of the humerus.

PURPOSE: This study shows the danger zone and the safety corridor in the lateral approach with bridge plating by measuring the distance between the lateral side of the plate positioned on the lateral aspect of the humerus and the radial nerve after it pierces the lateral intermuscular septum, in the different forearm positions. METHODS: Forty arms of 20 human cadavers were used, the radial nerve was identified and marked on the lateral surface the radial nerve at the exit of the lateral intermuscular septum and anteriorisation of the nerve in relation to the humeral shaft and the lateral epicondyle was also marked. The distances were measured with a digital caliper. A submuscular extraperiosteal corridor was created, proximally between the biceps brachialis and deltoid muscle and distally between the triceps and brachioradialis muscle, followed by the positioning of the low contact large fragments contoured plate with 14 combined holes (fixed and cortical angle), inserted from distal to proximal. Measurements were performed in four positions (elbow flexion with forearm pronation, elbow flexion with forearm supination, elbow extension with forearm pronation and elbow extension with forearm supination). RESULTS: Significant statistical differences occurred with the different positions, and the elbow flexion with forearm supination was shown to be the position that provides the safest submuscular extraperiosteal corridor in a lateral approach of the humerus. CONCLUSION: The danger zone of radial nerve is an area that extends from 15 cm to 5 cm proximal to the lateral epicondyle and the safest way to create a submuscular and extraperiosteal corridor in the lateral region of the humerus is with the elbow in flexion and the forearm in supination.

Hybrid Nanosystem Formed by DOX-Loaded Liposomes and Extracellular Vesicles from MDA-MB-231 Is Effective against Breast Cancer Cells with Different Molecular Profiles.

Drug delivery selectivity is a challenge for cancer treatment. A hybrid pegylated pH-sensitive liposome-extracellular vesicle isolated from human breast cancer cell MDA-MB-231 was developed to investigate its in vitro activity against breast cancer cells of different molecular profiles to overcome this inconvenience. The hybrid nanosystem was produced by film hydration, and doxorubicin (DOX) was encapsulated in this system using the ammonium sulfate gradient method. The characterization of this hybrid nanosystem revealed a mean diameter of 140.20 ± 2.70 nm, a polydispersity index of 0.102 ± 0.033, an encapsulation efficiency of doxorubicin of 88.9% ± 2.4, and a great storage stability for 90 days at 4 °C. The fusion of extracellular vesicles with liposomes was confirmed by nanoflow cytometry using PE-conjugated human anti-CD63. This hybrid nanosystem demonstrated cytotoxicity against human breast cancer cell lines with different molecular subtypes, enhanced anti-migration properties, and exhibited similar cellular uptake to the free DOX treatment. Preliminary acute toxicity assessments using Balb/C female mice indicated a median lethal dose of 15-17.5 mg/kg, with no evidence of splenic, liver, heart, bone marrow, and renal damage at a dose of 15 mg/kg. These findings suggest the hybrid formulation as a versatile nanocarrier for the treatment of various breast cancer subtypes.
