Bacterial diseases associated with the Mollicutes class can lead to decreased milk production and reproductive disorders in cattle, causing significant economic losses and compromising animal welfare. This study aimed to investigate the presence of Mollicutes and Ureaplasma diversum in the reproductive tract of dairy cows and determine the associated risk factors, as well as identify circulating strains of Ureaplasma in herds....
Adequate training in Psycho-Oncology is essential to prepare psychologists to address the complex psychosocial needs of patients with cancer. However, this content remains inconsistently incorporated into undergraduate psychology curricula, and evidence regarding students’ perceived preparedness remains limited. To evaluate differences between expectations and self-reported training experiences in Psycho-Oncology among undergr...
Cancer is projected to become the leading cause of death in Brazil within the next decade. Despite this growing burden, oncology education remains inconsistently structured in undergraduate medical curricula, potentially limiting physicians’ preparedness for cancer care. To compare expectations and perceptions of oncology education between independent cohorts of first- and sixth-year medical students and to assess whether acad...
In vitro–in vivo correlation of drug release profiles from medicated contact lenses using an in vitro eye blink modelNARA Subscribed
There is still a paucity of information on how in vitro release profiles from drug-loaded contact lenses (CLs) recorded in 3D printed eye models correlate with in vivo profiles. This work aims to evaluate the release profiles of two drug-loaded CLs in a 3D in vitro eye blink model and compare the obtained results with the release in a vial and the drug levels in tear fluid previously obtained from an animal in vivo study. In v...
AMAZONIA CAMTRAP: A data set of mammal, bird, and reptile species recorded with camera traps in the Amazon forestNARA Subscribed
The Amazon forest has the highest biodiversity on Earth. However, information on Amazonian vertebrate diversity is still deficient and scattered across the published, peer‐reviewed, and gray literature and in unpublished raw data. Camera traps are an effective non‐invasive method of surveying vertebrates, applicable to different scales of time and space. In this study, we organized and standardized camera trap records from dif...
Aim Water availability is the major driver of tropical forest structure and dynamics. Most research has focused on the impacts of climatic water availability, whereas remarkably little is known about the influence of water table depth and excess soil water on forest processes. Nevertheless, given that plants take up water from the soil, the impacts of climatic water supply on plants are likely to be modulated by soil water con...
Sponges and their associated microorganisms are the most prolific source of marine natural products, and many attempts have been made at creating a marine sponge cell line to produce these products efficiently. However, limited knowledge on the nutrients sponge cells require to grow and poor genetic accessibility have hampered progress toward this goal. Recently, a new sponge-specific nutrient medium M1 has been shown to stimu...
Mammalian carnivores are considered a key group in maintaining ecological health and can indicate potential ecological integrity in landscapes where they occur. Carnivores also hold high conservation value and their habitat requirements can guide management and conservation plans. The order Carnivora has 84 species from 8 families in the Neotropical region: Canidae; Felidae; Mephitidae; Mustelidae; Otariidae; Phocidae; Procyon...
