Physiological Stress Response and Oxidative Status in Tambaqui () Fed Diets Supplemented with Selenium.

The present study aimed to evaluate the physiological responses to transport stress in juvenile tambaqui () fed a diet supplemented with hydroxy-selenomethionine (OH-SeMet; Selisseo, Adisseo) and determine through stress biomarkers whether selenium supplementation could reduce the impact of transport stress on tambaqui resilience. Juvenile fish (15.71 ± 1.

Influence of Opacifiers and Different Dentin Thicknesses on the Optical Properties of a Darkened Teeth with Limited Sound Tissue Reduction.

Objective: To evaluate color masking and relative translucency parameter (RTP) of increasing dentin thicknesses from different resin composites, with or without opacifiers, on a veneer dental preparation and resin disks.

Material And Methods: Artificial darkened lateral incisors with 1mm-thick veneers preparations were used to evaluate color masking of different resinous materials, with or without opacifiers: IPS Empress Direct (ED) with or without ED Opaque; and Essentia (ES) with or without ES Masking Liner. For the RTP test; disc-shaped specimens were performed and evaluated with a spectrophotometer (VITA Easyshade) against black and C4 backgrounds.

Sensing in Inland Waters to Promote Safe Navigation: A Case Study in the Aveiro's Lagoon.

Maritime navigation safety relies on preventing accidents, such as collisions and groundings. However, several factors can exacerbate these risks, including inexistent or inadequate buoyage systems and nautical charts with outdated bathymetry. The International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) highlights high costs and traditional methods as obstacles to updating bathymetric information, impacting both safety and socio-economic factors.

Health-Related Quality of Life with Iatrogenic Inferior Alveolar Nerve Injuries Treated with Photobiomodulation: A Comparative Study.

: Photobiomodulation therapy (PBM) creates a biostimulatory or modulatory effect, promoting tissue regeneration and improving patients' health-related quality of life (HRQoL). PBM has shown promise as an effective treatment and management strategy for peripheral nerve injuries, including inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) damage. This study aims to assess the impact of PBM on HRQoL in patients with iatrogenic IAN injuries.
