Article Synopsis
- Cognitive impairments arise from conditions like brain injuries, dementia, and aging, impacting daily life and leading to societal challenges, while traditional rehab methods often fail to meet individual patient needs and require significant resources.
- The paper presents NeuroAIreh@b, an innovative AI-driven approach for personalized neurorehabilitation that combines cognitive profiling with virtual reality to improve training sessions.
- Initial studies demonstrate the effectiveness of NeuroAIreh@b with stroke patients, suggesting potential for larger trials to validate its benefits.
Studying the occurrence of Leishmania in bats would help toward clarifying the role of these animals in epidemiological cycles. Therefore, the objective of this study was to detect Leishmania spp. in bats from the Brazilian State of Espírito Santo.

Because they are usually resistant to many antifungal drugs available in clinical settings, studies of alternative targets in fungal cells and therapeutic approaches are necessary. In the present work, we evaluated the antifungal activity of miltefosine against and species and how this phospholipid analogue affects the fungal cell.

Method: low-cost and easy-to-purchase materials, such as upholstery foam, ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) sheet, plastic propulsion pump, saline container, water, school paint, serum equipment, rubber tubing for tourniquet, and a leg and an arm of a ghost mannequin, were used. In the model assembly, we created an active bleeding simulation system, which could only be controlled with the correct application of the tourniquet.
