Endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) involving renal and visceral arteries remains a great challenge. Several techniques have been developed over the time to treat juxtarenal, pararenal and thoracoabdominal aneurysms, highlighting the fenestrated and branched endografts, parallel prostheses as Chimney, Periscope and Sandwich Techniques and the use of flow modulation by multilayer stent. We report a case of saccular juxtarenal aortic aneurysm with high surgical risk for complex airway access due to a history of radical laryngectomy for laryngeal neoplasm. Due to chronic aorto-iliac obstructive disease, ostial stenosis of renal artery and limited diameter of the suprarenal aorta, we discarded options involving fenestrated/branched endografts and involving parallel prostheses techniques. We present this case as a therapeutic challenge and a successful treatment option in the short-term evaluation.

This study aimed to technically and economically evaluate the Forwarder performance in the first cutting wood extraction from a Eucalyptus grandis plantation. Technical analysis included a movement and timing study by continuous method, and the productivity was determined using the extracted wood volume in cubic meters. Economical analysis included operational costs parameters and wood extraction cost. Results referred to the effective operational performance. Loading and unloading activities responded for more than ¾ of the total time of effective Forwarder operational cycle. Operational costs were influenced by maintenance and repair costs. The estimated cost of extraction was US$ 0.97 per cubic meter.

Os peptídeos têm sido amplamente estudados e demonstrados como uma estratégia promissora no combate a micro-organismos patogênicos, devido aos inovadores mecanismos de ação que apresentam e a menor indução de resistência nos microorganismos. Os peptídeos da família das Histatinas, naturalmente presentes na saliva humana, são os principais agentes que auxiliam na cicatrização e oclusão de feridas, re-epitelização e, além disso, dispõem de mecanismos de ação contra microorganismos, em especial, a Candida albicans. O agente etiológico da Candidiose bucal é a Candida albicans, um patógeno de origem fúngica, que acomete indivíduos de todas as idades, indivíduos imunologicamente debilitados e, especialmente, os usuários de próteses dentárias. Um importante fator de virulência da Candida albicans é a habilidade de formar biofilmes, estrutura comunitária microbiana revestida por exopolissacarídeos, capaz de aderir-se a superfícies lisas. Os biofilmes associam-se com a capacidade de causar infecções, com o desenvolvimento de resistência contra o sistema imune do hospedeiro e contra os antifúngicos. O uso indiscriminado e a exposição prolongada aos antifúngicos induz o surgimento de resistência a esses medicamentos, além disso existem cepas de Candida albicans resistentes ao tratamento com antifúngicos azólicos. Devido a isso surge a necessidade de desenvolvimento de novos alvos terapêuticos. O objetivo desse estudo consiste no desenvolvimento de análogos da Histatina-5 com algumas modificações estruturais, a fim de potencializar a ação terapêutica já comprovada dos peptídeos da família das Histatinas. A Histatina-5GH apresenta maior carga positiva que os demais peptídeos devido a troca de duas glicinas na estrutura da Histatina-5 por duas histidinas. Por sua vez, a Histatina-5SC possui o resíduo de serina C-terminal substituído por...

With advances in health care, has been na increase of demand for material that could replace the functions of the human body parts, thus evolved biomedic prosthesis which today are responsible for the constant improvement of the quality of life. The Titanium alloys are widely used as implants due to its properties, like high mechanical resistance, biocompatibility and corrosion resistance, and the addition alloying elements like Zirconium, may improve some of those properties. Such properties are related to the microstructure and consequently to the type of processing performed. The purpose of this dissertation was to characterize the experimental alloy Ti15Zr after route of processsing and heat treatment in order to extend the knowledge about this alloy. The latter has been abtained by fusion of pure metals in a arc melting furnace with an inert argon atmosphere. The material has been homogenized in a tube furnace at 950ºC for 24h and cold worked by swaging, after that, bars with 10 mm of diameter were obtained by the process of rotary forging. The samples were solubilized at 900º C for 2 hours and quenched in water. After that, 4 samples were submitted to the aging, at 400º C, 450º C, 500º C and 550º C. The microstructure and phase analysis was done by optical microscopy and X-rays diffraction (XRD), the mechanical characterization was carried out by microhardness test and finally, evaluation of corrosion resistance of the alloy by electrochemical tests. The XRD and the optical microscopy made it possible to analyze that the heat treatment influenced the phase shifting from α to α', and probably affected the alloy hardness, at the first aged sample at 500º Chas been a sudden increase in the value of hardness, probably by appearance of omega phase, unwanted phase to the medical application duo to great fragility, and finally ...
