Background: Rhodnius neivai, a kissing bug found in the dry regions of Colombia and Venezuela, has limited documented occurrences. While it is not deemed a significant vector for Chagas disease, distributional and ecological studies are essential in monitoring species domiciliation and shedding light on the evolutionary aspects of the Rhodniini tribe.
Objectives: The study aims to provide a detailed revision of R.
Impact of Buriti Oil from Palm Tree on the Rheological, Thermal, and Mechanical Properties of Linear Low-Density Polyethylene for Improved Sustainability.

Recent advancements highlight the utilization of vegetable oils as additives in polymeric materials, particularly for replacing conventional plasticizers. Buriti oil (BO), extracted from the Amazon's palm tree fruit, boasts an impressive profile of vitamins, minerals, proteins, carotenoids, and tocopherol. This study investigates the impact of incorporating buriti oil as a plasticizer in linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) matrices.

Central University of Venezuela (Universidad Central de Venezuela, Department Guest Professor Periodontic and Dental Surgery Postgrade, Orcid: https://orcid.org/0009-0001-2480-886x.
Aim: The present study clinically analyzes implant survival of immediate implant placement cases using the drilling through roots (DTR) technique for anatomically-guided implant site preparation, as an aid to placing immediate dental implants in multi-radicular teeth.
Materials And Methods: This clinical analysis utilized patients' electronic dental records who underwent immediate implant surgery using the DTR technique. All immediately placed implants were followed up regularly every year, after restoration.
Cross-Sectional and Prospective Associations between Parkinsonism and Parkinson's Disease with Frailty in Latin America.

Background: Little is known about the relationship between parkinsonism or Parkinson's disease (PD) and frailty in Latin America.
Objective: The study aimed to determine the cross-sectional and prospective associations between parkinsonism and PD with frailty in a large multi-country cohort in Latin America. Frailty was assessed using three different models to explore which definitions are more appropriate to screen for frailty in a PD population.
Resistance and the regimen: The microthanatopolitics of Venezuelan antiretroviral scarcity and HIV drug adherence failures.

Institute for Global Health, University College London, United Kingdom. Electronic address:
The Venezuelan State does not provide adequate antiretroviral therapy (ART) for the population living with HIV, resulting in pharmaceutical scarcity, involuntary treatment pauses, and adherence failures. Such a situation may result in the development of resistance to certain ART drugs, meaning that Venezuelans with HIV may have their treatment options reduced for the remainder of their lives. It can take a number of years for a person to acquire late-stage HIV/AIDS and for death to occur, and so I focus on the microbiological death of CD4 cells over time - a concept I call 'microthanatopolitics'.
