[Clinical phenotype of abdominal obesity and dynapenia: Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Aging (ELSI-Brazil)].

This study aims to examine the prevalence of abdominal obesity-dynapenia phenotype, identified by the presence of abdominal obesity and dynapenia, and understand its associated factors with a representative sample of the Brazilian population. Data were collected from the baseline of the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Aging (ELSI-Brasil) 2015-2016. Abdominal obesity was determined by a waist-to-height ratio ≥ 0.

Enhancing Beef Hamburger Quality: A Comprehensive Review of Quality Parameters, Preservatives, and Nanoencapsulation Technologies of Essential and Edible Oils.

Essential and edible oils have applications in reducing oxidative processes and inhibiting the growth of microorganisms in meats and their derivatives, providing a natural alternative to synthetic preservatives. This preservative action meets the demand for clean labels and safe products, aiming to replace synthetic additives that pose potential health risks. Advances and limitations in applying essential and edible oils in meat preservation, highlighting their preservative properties or ability to improve nutritional profiles, are explored in this study.

Prognostic Implications of Decorin, E-Cadherin and EGFR Expression in Inflammatory and Non-Inflammatory Canine Mammary Carcinomas.

Inflammatory mammary carcinoma (IMC) is the most aggressive variant of invasive mammary tumours in dogs and in women. Decorin is an extracellular matrix molecule whose expression can be reduced or absent in various human cancers, which is associated with a poor prognosis. E-cadherin is a cell adhesion protein whose expression is reduced in several neoplasms.

Growth and metabolic functions of Schizolobium amazonicum subjected to nickel doses.

Anthropic activities such as industries, agriculture and mining has generated public concern for its numerous irregular disposals of its waste, the incorrect deposition of heavy metals such as nickel (Ni) has caused the degradation and contamination of groundwater and water. Studies that point out cheap and efficient solutions have been an obstacle to the advancement of solutions for degraded area recovery programs. For this, a vegetable home experiment was developed, with an entirely randomized design with 5 treatments being a control (no metal) and 4 nickel concentrations (200 μM/L; 400 μM/L; 600 μM/L and 800 μM/L) with 6 repetitions.
