Decompressive craniectomy (DC) has been the main surgical treatment of refractory high intracranial pressure (ICP) in traumatic brain injury (TBI) for decades. Basal cisternostomy emerged as a novel option in brain trauma, with results still unclear. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis comparing cisternostomy added to conventional DC versus DC alone for the treatment of TBI.

TB represents a serious public health threat, and it is characterized by high transmission rates, prevalence in impoverished regions, and high co-infection rates with HIV. Moreover, the serious side effects of long-term treatment that decrease patient adherence, and the emergence of multi-resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causing agent of TBs, pose several challenges for its eradication.

With the connection of the energy-producing plants to a central station in Brazil the situation is aggravated since demands in different regions of the country affect the water flow. Using downstream flow data from the Tucuruí dam over a 50-year period, we tested whether the variation in water flow has changed.
