Cis caramelo sp. nov. is described based on specimens collected in the North, Northeast, and Southeast Regions of Brazil. It stands out for being more similar to the species of Cis Latreille from Africa than South America. Cis caramelo sp. nov. fits into the Cis neserorum species-group, being morphologically similar to Cis aster Souza-Gonçalves & Lopes-Andrade, but differing in the presence of a sex patch on the first abdominal ventrite of males and in the morphology of the aedeagus, with a wide tegmen lacking acute tips on the sides and a penis wide and sclerotized at its basal portion, abruptly narrowed and membranous apically. Brief descriptions and images of immatures of C. caramelo sp. nov. are also provided.

Background: Candy cane syndrome (CCS) is a rare complication of laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB). It occurs due to redundancy in the blind loop at the gastro-jejunal anastomosis.
Objective: To evaluate the type of symptoms, anatomic and functional findings, and outcome after treatment.
Cx43 can form functional channels at the nuclear envelope and modulate gene expression in cardiac cells.

Classically associated with gap junction-mediated intercellular communication, connexin43 (Cx43) is increasingly recognized to possess non-canonical biological functions, including gene expression regulation. However, the mechanisms governing the localization and role played by Cx43 in the nucleus, namely in transcription modulation, remain unknown. Using comprehensive and complementary approaches encompassing biochemical assays, super-resolution and immunogold transmission electron microscopy, we demonstrate that Cx43 localizes to the nuclear envelope of different cell types and in cardiac tissue.

The One Step Nucleic Acid Amplification (OSNA) is being adopted worldwide for sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) staging in breast cancer (BC). As major disadvantage, OSNA precludes prognostic information based on structural evaluation of SLNs. Our aim is to identify biomarkers related to tumor-microenvironment interplay exploring gene expression data from the OSNA remaining lysate.

Rheumatology, Centro Hospitalar e Universitario de Coimbra, Coimbra, Portugal.
Objectives: Our primary objective was to establish preliminary normal reference curves for ultrasound-dermal thickness and skin stiffness in the 17 Rodnan skin sites, considering the effect of gender and age on these measures. As an exploratory objective, we investigated the effect of body mass index and the menopause on skin ultrasound measures.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 140 healthy volunteers, aged 20-79 years.
