The Fundão dam collapse occurred on November 2015 in Mariana city (Brazil), provoking a series of ecological impacts over the Doce river basin and its nearshore environment. However many impacts over fishery target fauna (fish and shrimp) are still unknown or underestimated due to the lack of baseline data in the region. In the present study we assessed the isotopic niches modeled from δC and δN signatures of six estuarine fish species before and after the impact to assign potential shifts at the population- and community-level. We showed isotopic niche has altered in all studied species irrespective of its trophic group and habitat use. Niche community metrics indicated a depletion of trophic diversity and basal resources of the whole community after the impact. Food web changes as we reported here can impair the energy transfer through the food chain and put at risk the sustainability of small fisheries that rely upon local resources.

Nursing Department, Cyprus University of Technology, Limassol, Cyprus.
Objectives: Cancer-related cachexia affects approximately 50% to 80% of cancer patients and contributes significantly to cancer-related mortality, accounting for 20% of deaths. This multifactorial syndrome is characterized by systemic inflammation, anorexia, and elevated energy expenditure, leading to severe weight loss and muscle wasting. Understanding the underlying mechanisms is critical for developing effective interventions.

The systematic review synthesized the current scientific evidence on the recommendations for pelvic rehabilitation in the management of sexual dysfunctions secondary to gynecological cancer. Twelve literature reviews, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses were included, evaluating the methodological quality using the Joanna Briggs Institute Risk of Bias Assessment tool. The results highlight the efficacy of pelvic floor exercises, alone or with biofeedback, and education and information provided to patients, with a high degree of recommendation.

Background: Radiologically Isolated Syndrome (RIS) characterized by abnormalities on MRI that do not manifest as clinical symptoms of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) but raise suspicion for MS. Considering that RIS often evolves into MS, various diagnostic criteria have been established, and each suggested biomarker warrants thorough consideration and discussion. In this study, metabolomic profiling of body fluids of patients who were being followed up with a pre-diagnosis of RIS or MS and had not yet received any treatment was conducted.

This review documents the importance of postoperative interventions that accelerate the functional recovery of the thoracic surgical patient. Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) pathways aim to mitigate the harmful surgical stress response. Improvements to the entire patient pathway, by removing unnecessary care elements while introducing evidence-based interventions, have synergistic effects.

Preeclampsia is a life-threatening complication that develops in 2-8% of pregnancies. It is characterized by elevated blood pressure after 20 weeks of gestation and may progress to multiorgan dysfunction, leading to severe maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. The only definitive treatment is delivery, and efforts are focused on early risk prediction, surveillance, and severity mitigation.
