PERICARDIOCENTESE DEVIDO À EFUSÃO PERICÁRDICA EM GOLDEN RETRIEVER: RELATO DE CASO Open
This report describes a clinical case of pericardial effusion in a 5-year-old, 32-kg Golden Retriever dog that presented with exercise intolerance, progressive weakness, and episodes of syncope. Imaging tests, such as chest radiography and…

Dynamic range models improve the near-term forecast for a marine species on the move Open
Population dynamic models are widely used to predict demography. However, they have rarely been extended to biogeographical applications despite widespread calls to do so. We developed a process-based dynamic range model (DRM) that estimat…

Performance of the Edwards Sapien 3 bioprosthesis in atrioventricular valve position: a case series Open
Background The Edwards Sapien percutaneous valve (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, CA, USA) is a promising therapeutic option for congenital atrioventricular disease mostly because of the possibility to accommodate somatic growth with balloon…

Ventilatory Burden as a Measure of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Severity Is Predictive of Cardiovascular and All-Cause Mortality Open
Rationale: The apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), used for the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea, captures only the frequency of respiratory events and has demonstrable limitations. Objectives: We propose a novel automated measure, termed "ven…

Bullous pemphigoid in infants and a major differential diagnosis: linear IgA bullous dermatosis Open
Bullous pemphigoid is an autoimmune subepidermal dermatosis which is difficult to be differentiated from other bullous dermatosis, like the linear IgA bullous dermatosis, rarely seen in children (there are less than 15 cases reported in th…

WEST SYNDROME ASSOCIATED WITH LISSENCEPHALY - CASE REPORT Open
Lissencephaly is a rare condition with a poor prognosis. It is characterized by a cerebral malformation due to deficient neuronal migration, which occurs between the 12th and 16th weeks of gestation. This deficient migration can generate c…

0743 Should We Use AHI or RDI to Diagnose Obstructive Sleep Apnea? Open
Introduction Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) is defined based on clinical complaints and polysomnography events. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) was initially diagnosed based on the apnea hypopnea index (AHI), but the ICSD-3 has defined the…

391 Upper Airway Resistance Syndrome is associated with high Cyclic Alternating Pattern Open
Introduction Upper Airway Resistance Syndrome (UARS) is suspected in individuals with excessive daytime sleepiness, fatigue, and sleep fragmentation associated with increased respiratory effort. UARS can negatively impact daytime function.…

Using craniofacial characteristics to predict optimum airway pressure in obstructive sleep apnea treatment Open
Introduction: Manual titration is the gold standard to determinate optimal continuous positive airway pressure, and the prediction of the optimal pressure is important to avoid delays in prescribing a continuous positive airway pressure tr…
