Dietary Profile of Women With Chronic Muscle Temporomandibular Disorder: An Observational Study.

Background: Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) is the main chronic pain that affects the face, and it is associated with dietary changes due to pain and dysfunction. However, there is a scarcity of studies on its impact on nutrition and vice versa.

Objectives: To assess and compare the intake of energy and nutrients among chronic TMD myalgia and asymptomatic women and to evaluate data according to dietary reference intakes (DRI) and the World Health Organization (WHO) values.

Synthesis and Structure-Activity Relationship of Thiourea Derivatives Against .

Leishmaniasis, caused by protozoa and transmitted by vectors, presents varied clinical manifestations based on parasite species and host immunity. The lack of effective vaccines or treatments has prompted research into new therapies, including thiourea derivatives, which have demonstrated antiprotozoal activities. We synthesized two series of ,'-disubstituted thiourea derivatives through the reaction of isothiocyanates with amines.

Sex Differences in Patients with Stroke: A Hospital-Based Multicenter Prospective Study in Brazil.

Introduction: Stroke in Brazil disproportionately affects women, despite men having higher age-adjusted incidence and mortality rates. Women's longer lifespan contributes to their increased stroke burden, particularly among older individuals.

Objective: This study examines sex disparities in stroke epidemiology and treatment in Fortaleza, Brazil, addressing the lack of sex-specific stroke data.

Interaction between the dopaminergic and endocannabinoid systems promotes peripheral antinociception.

Background: Dopamine has been widely related to pain modulation, at central and peripheral levels. In this study we aimed to investigate the mechanisms involved in peripheral antinociception, evaluating the interaction between the dopaminergic and endocannabinoid systems in this event.

Methods: Male Swiss mice (30-40 g) were pre-sensitized by administration of the hyperalgesic PGE (2 μg/paw).

Relationship between white-coat hypertension and office isolated systolic or diastolic hypertension: an ambulatory blood pressure monitoring study.

This study investigated the prevalence of white-coat hypertension (WCH) among individuals with office isolated systolic hypertension (ISH), isolated diastolic hypertension (IDH), and systolic-diastolic hypertension (SDH). We evaluated 9122 individuals [57.0 ± 14.
