On-Demand Hospital Manufacturing of Baclofen Lozenges Using Pharmaceutical 3D PrintingNARA Subscribed
Purpose Dysphagia in neurological patients complicates oral drug administration. Manual preparation of lozenges/troches lacks precision and scalability. This study investigates the feasibility of implementing a pharmaceutical 3D printer in a hospital pharmacy for the automated production of personalized baclofen troches. Methods Baclofen troches were manufactured in a hospital pharmacy setting, both manually and via pharmaceut...
Mechanical traumatic injuries as a cause of death in free-ranging neotropical non-human primates living in anthropogenic matricesNARA Subscribed
Traumatic injuries are a major cause of morbidity and mortality in free-ranging non-human primates (NHPs), often associated with anthropogenic pressures such as habitat loss, urbanization, and interactions with domestic animals. This study characterized some epidemiological, spatial, and pathological patterns of mechanical traumatic injuries in free-ranging non-human primates from anthropogenically altered areas of the Federal...
Functional diversity of Brazilian bees: revealing the unique patterns of the NeotropicsNARA Subscribed
Bees are essential for ecosystem functioning, pollinating many wild and crop plant species. Predicting which species are most vulnerable to global changes, and how their loss may impact ecosystems and human well-being, is critical. Comprehensive information on bee response and effect traits is fundamental to these assessments. However, the Raunkiærian shortfall—insufficient trait data—remains significant for bees, particularly...
Cortical volumetry and longitudinal cognitive changes in Parkinson’s disease: insights from the COPPADIS cohortNARA Subscribed
Cognitive decline is a major non-motor symptom in Parkinson’s disease (PD), often linked to brain atrophy. This study examines the relationship between cortical atrophy and age groups in predicting cognitive decline in PD over five years. 188 PD patients from the COPPADIS cohort were stratified by age: young (30–55 years, N = 47), middle-aged (56–65 years, N = 59), and older adults (66–75 years, N = 82). Baseline cortical volu...
Motivation Here, we make available a second version of the BioTIME database, which compiles records of abundance estimates for species in sample events of ecological assemblages through time. The updated version expands version 1.0 of the database by doubling the number of studies and includes substantial additional curation to the taxonomic accuracy of the records, as well as the metadata. Moreover, we now provide an R packag...
