Three-dimensional models of physeal fractures in the femur for the teaching of veterinary medicine.

Purpose: To develop and assess three-dimensional models of physeal fractures in dog femurs (3D MPFDF) using radiographic imaging.

Methods: The study was conducted in three phases: development of 3D MPFDF; radiographic examination of the 3D MPFDF; and comparative analysis of the anatomical and radiographic features of the 3D MPFDF.

Results: The base model and the 3D MPFDF achieved high fidelity in replicating the bone structures, accurately maintaining the morphological characteristics and dimensions such as length, width, and thickness, closely resembling natural bone.

Covid-19 rapid test by combining a Random Forest-based web system and blood tests.

The disease caused by the new type of coronavirus, Covid-19, has posed major public health challenges for many countries. With its rapid spread, since the beginning of the outbreak in December 2019, the disease transmitted by SARS-CoV-2 has already caused over 2 million deaths to date. In this work, we propose a web solution, called Heg.

Quality of life in women with microprolactinoma treated with dopamine agonists.

Objectives: To evaluate QOL in women with microprolactinomas treated with dopamine agonists, comparing the patients with normal versus those with elevated prolactin levels, and to identify clinical and biochemical influences on patients' QOL.

Material And Methods: A cross-sectional evaluation was performed in two University referral centers. Fifty women with microprolactinoma answered the SF-36 questionnaire by the time of their clinical evaluation.
