Assessing the Presence of in Pastureland Using IoT Sensors and Remote Sensing: The Case Study of Terceira Island (Azores, Portugal).

Spores from the fungus are commonly found on Azorean pastures. When consumed by cattle along with the grass, these spores cause health issues in the cattle, resulting in animal suffering and financial losses. For approximately two years, we monitored meteorological parameters using weather stations and collected and analyzed grass samples in a laboratory to control for the presence of spores.

Molecular and entomological surveillance of malaria vectors in urban and rural communities of Benguela Province, Angola.

Background: Malaria is a major public health problem in Angola, with Anopheles gambiae sensu lato (s.l.) and An.

The postnatal development of the compartments in human lymph nodes up to 15 years of age.

The postnatal development of normal human lymph nodes (LN) is largely unknown but is of relevance for intranodal desensitization and for comparison to lymphoma. Superficial inguinal lymphoid (LN) of 25 children (newborn up to 14 years) were studied by routine histology and immunohistology for T and B lymphocytes. The LN were obtained from the legal medicine department at necropsy.

Delayed splenic pseudoaneurysm identification with surveillance imaging.

Background: Recent studies have shown that nonoperative management of patients with splenic injury has up to a 90% success rate. However, delayed hemorrhage secondary to splenic artery pseudoaneurysm occurs in 5% to 10% of patients with up to 27% of patients developing a pseudoaneurysm on delayed imaging. The goal of our study was to evaluate the safety and utility of delayed computed tomography (CT) imaging for blunt splenic injury patients.
