Forty years of a Postgraduate Program in Cardiology at a Brazilian public university: indicators of its graduates.

Purpose: To evaluate the profile of graduates of the Postgraduate Program (PGP) in Cardiology of a public federal university, according to sociodemographic factors and professional trajectory.

Methods: The variables were collected from databases from the observed institution and digital platforms. The analysis of differences between the various levels of degrees was carried out in three cohorts: the entire historical series (graduates from 1978-2021), the first 20 years (1978-1997) and the second 20 years (1998-2018).

Psychological stress and cardiovascular risk among women in Brazilian communities: a cross-sectional study.

This study aims to evaluate the perceptual stress and cardiovascular risk among women in a large cross-sectional study performed in Brazilian communities. Subjects aged over 18 years were included out of 500 public basic health units (BHU) in Brazil.

How long does the biological effect of a red light-emitting diode last on adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells?

This research investigated the duration of the influence of red light-emitting diodes (LED, 630 nm; output power: 2452.5 mW; laser beam: 163.5 cm; irradiance: 15 mW/cm; radiant exposure: 4 J/cm) on different periods after irradiation (6, 12, 24, 48, and 72 h) on adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells' (AdMSCs) metabolism and paracrine factors.
