A machine learning proposal method to detect milk tainted with cheese whey.

Cheese whey addition to milk is a type of fraud with high prevalence and severe economic effects, resulting in low yield for dairy products, nutritional reduction of milk and milk-derived products, and even some safety concerns. Nevertheless, methods to detect fraudulent addition of cheese whey to milk are expensive and time consuming, and are thus ineffective as screening methods. The Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy technique is a promising alternative to identify this type of fraud because a large number of data are generated, and useful information might be extracted to be used by machine learning models.

Differential gene expression pattern and plasma sex steroids during testicular development in Genyatremus luteus (Perciforme: Haemulidae) (Bloch, 1790).

The aim of the current study is to evaluate gene expression patterns of LH (lhr) and estrogen (er) receptors and plasma steroid levels during testicular development in Genyatremus luteus. Males were histologically classified as immature (n=7), maturing (n=7) and mature (n=7), based on the cellular structure of their testes. Plasma 11-KT concentration recorded peak at the final maturation stage.

Palliative care in emergency care: invoking Kairos and rethinking health care systems.

Acute crises of decompensation of a chronic disease are, in most cases, handled in an Emergency Room setting. In these services, emergency care professionals face several challenges, such as incomplete information on the patient's disease, scarce resources, and the pressure of having to make decisions in a short time. In this context, what can be done to provide patient-centered care that is at the same time technically appropriate and aligned with their values? Understanding the patient's situation in relation to their disease; talking to the patient about their clinical condition, comprehending their values and feelings; and understanding time as Kairos - that is, the time of the consultation as an opportunity to understand the patient's needs and build a shared therapeutic plan - are possible solutions to this challenge.

Guided Endodontics: Static vs. Dynamic Computer-Aided Techniques-A Literature Review.

(1) Background: access cavity preparation is the first stage of non-surgical endodontic treatment. The inaccuracy of this step may lead to numerous intraoperative complications, which impair the root canal treatment's prognosis and therefore the tooth's survival. Guided endodontics, meaning computer-aided static (SN) and dynamic navigation (DN) techniques, has recently emerged as a new approach for root canal location in complex cases.

Morphological Changes in Major Salivary Glands in Mice Treated With a Choline and Methionine Deficient Diet.

Background/aim: It has been shown that the methionine-choline deficient (MCD) diet induces hepatocarcinogenesis, but not in extrahepatic organs, such as the testis, and pancreas, although may increase chemical-induced carcinogenesis in the colon, mammary gland, esophagus, and pancreas. Accumulating evidence suggests that salivary glands are very susceptible to stress conditions, such as radiation, hyperglycemia, and exposure to xenobiotics in vivo. This study aimed to analyze the histological changes on the major salivary glands (parotid, submandibular, and sublingual) after MCD diet administration.

Effect of dietary Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) on the intestinal function of post-weaned piglet: An approach combining proteomics, metabolomics and histological studies.

The effect of dietary Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) and CAZyme supplementation was assessed on the gut of weaned piglets, using an integrated NMR-metabolomics approach combined with Tandem Mass Tag labelled proteomics. Thirty weaned male piglets were assigned to one of the three following diets (n = 10): cereal and soybean meal basal diet (Control), basal diet with 10% Spirulina inclusion (SP) and SP diet supplemented with 0.01% lysozyme (SP + L).

Proinflammatory State in the Odontogenesis of Fetuses Exposed to Different Types of Fatty Acids during Pregnancy.

Objectives: The aim of the present study was to analyze the possible changes caused by the maternal ingestion of different types of fatty acids during pregnancy in the proinflammatory state in the odontogenesis of the fetuses.

Subject And Methods: Twenty-four jaws (n = 6 per group) of Wistar rats were collected on the 20th day of intrauterine life. Mothers were separated on the first day of pregnancy into 4 groups according to diet, as described below: control group (C) - diet with soy oil as a source of fat; saturated fatty acid group (S) - diet with lard in saturated fatty acids; trans-fatty acid group (T) - diet with vegetable fat, rich in trans-saturated fatty acids; and polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) group - diet with fish oil, rich in PUFAs.

Audiological biomarkers of tinnitus in an older Portuguese population.

Tinnitus is a phantom sound perceived in the absence of external acoustic stimulation. It is described in a variety of ways (e.g.

Effect of Temperature on Mechanical Behavior of Concrete Reinforced with Different Types of GFRP Bar.

Glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars have been increasingly used as reinforcement in concrete structures. However, when the bars are exposed to high temperatures, there is a change in the internal structure of the polymer which affects the tensile strength of the matrix and its adhesion with the fibers, reducing the mechanical strength of the bar. In addition, with increasing temperature, the bar-concrete interface is also damaged by the decomposition of hydration products from the cement paste and the loss of surface adhesion.

Phosphodiesterase 10A Inhibition Modulates the Corticostriatal Activity and L-DOPA-Induced Dyskinesia.

The facilitation of corticostriatal transmission is modulated by the pharmacological inhibition of striatal phosphodiesterase 10A (PDE10A). Since L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia is associated with abnormal corticostriatal transmission, we hypothesized that inhibition of PDE10A would modulate L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia (LID) by regulating corticostriatal activity. 6-OHDA-lesioned rats were chronically treated with L-DOPA for one week.

Complementary tool in diagnosis of hydatidiform mole: Review.

Hydatidiform mole is an abnormal pregnancy in which two copies of paternal genetic material are present. Molar gestation is divided into complete and partial hydatidiform moles. Clinical, morphological, and cytogenetic characteristics are usually sufficient to distinguish them, but and the rare cases that are necessary to know the paternal origin to establish the diagnosis and segment?

The physiological functions of human peroxisomes.

Peroxisomes are subcellular organelles that play a central role in human physiology by catalyzing a range of unique metabolic functions. The importance of peroxisomes for human health is exemplified by the existence of a group of usually severe diseases caused by an impairment in one or more peroxisomal functions. Among others these include the Zellweger spectrum disorders, X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy, and Refsum disease.

Negative terpinen-4-ol modulate potentially malignant and malignant lingual lesions induced by 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide in rat model.

Our aim was to verify the modulative TP-4-ol capacity in 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide induced oral rat cancer. The stereoisomers of TP-4-ol were used against the human tongue squamous cell line and the negative stereoisomer showed lower IC50. Thirty-one Holtzman rats (120-130 g) were cancer-induced by 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide (4-NQO/8 weeks/25 ppm) and 32 Holtzman rats (120-130 g) were used to healthy and TP-4-ol toxicity experiments.

3D-printed hydroxyapatite scaffolds for bone tissue engineering: A systematic review in experimental animal studies.

The use of 3D-printed hydroxyapatite (HA) scaffolds for stimulating bone healing has been increasing over the years. Although all the promising effects of these scaffolds, there are still few studies and limited understanding of their interaction with bone tissue and their effects on the process of fracture healing. In this context, this study aimed to perform a systematic literature review examining the effects of different 3D-printed HA scaffolds in bone healing.

High-fat diet during sexual maturation induces hyperplastic differentiation of rat prostate and higher expression of AR45 isoform and ERα.

We examined the consequences of high-fat diet (HFD) on prostate histophysiology in two periods along sexual maturation of rats and the impact on the gland in adulthood. After weaning, male Wistar rats were fed a balanced diet (4 % fat-C3, C6, C9) or a HFD (20 % fat- HF3, HF6, HF9) for 3, 6 or 9 weeks. Fat deposit weights, blood glucose and levels of serum testosterone and estrogen were measured.
