Instruments for assessing the quality of life in patients with visual impairment: a scoping review protocol (Preprint) Open
BACKGROUND Visual impairment affects approximately 2.2 billion people worldwide and has significant impacts on various aspects of life, including physical, social, economic, and emotional domains. Assessing the quality of life of these in…

Net Benefit of Early Anticoagulation for Stroke With Atrial Fibrillation Open
Importance The net clinical effect of early vs later direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) initiation after atrial fibrillation–associated ischemic stroke is unclear. Objective To investigate whether early DOAC treatment is associated with a ne…

DONOR SCREENING AS AN ESSENTIAL FACTOR IN THE EFFICIENCY OF DOUBLE PLATELET COLLECTION BY APHERESIS Open
Background/case studies: The need for platelets collected by apheresis in Brazil has been gradually increasing. Blood banks that seek quality and transfusion safety choose to use it whenever available. However, the challenge of attracting …

Existence and Stability of Four-Vortex Collinear Relative Equilibria\n with Three Equal Vorticities Open
We study collinear relative equilibria of the planar four-vortex problem\nwhere three of the four vortex strengths are identical. The $S_3$ invariance\nobtained from the equality of vorticities is used to reduce the defining\nequations and…
