Developing orally administered pediatric formulations presents significant challenges due to the unique characteristics of pediatric patients. Terbinafine hydrochloride (TER), a powerful antifungal agent, is effective against various fungal infections, including Tinea capitis, which is common in children. However, its low aqueous solubility necessitates innovative pharmaceutical strategies to enhance its effectiveness.

Objective: To assess the pragmatic adequacy of the Interactive Theory of Breastfeeding based on the Fawcett's Model.

Method: Theoretical study, according to evaluation criteria proposed by Fawcett. The six questions suggested in the model were used, answered based on searches in scientific literature, consultation in legislation supporting nursing professional practice and information from the authors of the theory.

Article Synopsis
  • Current genetic diversity and population connectivity are crucial for endangered species like the Hyacinth Macaw, especially due to threats like illegal harvesting.
  • Genetic monitoring can guide conservation efforts and inform strategies for managing viable populations and reintroducing animals from captive breeding.
  • The study revealed four genetically distinct clusters of Hyacinth Macaws in Brazil, with significant diversity and declining effective population sizes, underlining the importance of preserving all wild populations to protect their evolutionary potential.

Article Synopsis
  • - Multiple mucocutaneous diseases, including oral lichen planus and oral discoid lupus erythematosus, have oral lesions often mistakenly labeled as "pre-cancerous", leading to confusion about their actual cancer risk.
  • - The study aimed to connect the occurrence of squamous cell carcinoma in these diseases to the concept of "Marjolin ulcer", which refers to cancer developing in chronic wound areas.
  • - Findings suggest that rather than being inherently "pre-malignant," these diseases may lead to squamous cell carcinoma primarily in long-standing, scarred lesions, indicating a need for careful monitoring of chronic oral conditions.

Many previous studies presented the effectiveness of ketoconazole (KTZ) against leishmaniasis. However, the bioavailability and therapeutic efficacy of free KTZ are limited due to its low aqueous solubility. In this study, an inclusion complex (IC6HKTZ) was prepared with p-sulfonic acid calix[6]arene (CX6SOH) to improve the solubility and efficacy of KTZ against Leishmania amazonensis and Leishmania infantum promastigotes.

Aim: To perform a simultaneous concept analysis of the concepts associated to nursing diagnoses ineffective airway clearance, ineffective breathing pattern, and impaired gas exchange.

Background: Concepts about respiratory manifestations need to be well defined, especially in the current pandemic scenario. For that, the simultaneous concept analysis can help in the clarity and differentiation of similar concepts.

Studies on the breeding of vulnerable and endangered bird species are hindered by low numbers of individuals, inaccessible location of nests, unfavourable environmental conditions, and complex behavioural patterns. In addition, intraspecific variation may emerge only following long-term, systematic observations of little-known patterns and processes. Here, data collected over 30 years were used to determine growth model of hyacinth macaw (Anodorhynchus hyacinthinus) chicks in the Pantanal biome of Brazil.

While Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM) is characterized by an almost unifying mutation in MYD88, clinical presentation at diagnosis and response to therapy can be widely different among WM patients. Current prognostic tools only partially address this clinical heterogeneity. Limited data compiling both molecular and cytogenetic information have been used in risk prognostication in WM.
