Myxozoans are microscopic cnidarians that mainly parasitize fishes. The present study aimed to describe a new myxozoan parasite from the gills of Boulengerella cuvieri (Spix and Agassiz, 1829) by morphological and molecular ...
Peripheral blood eosinophils and nine years mortality in copd patients
(2021-01-01)
Background: Eosinophil counts increase during chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbation and influence the response to different agents (such as inhaled and systemic corticosteroids), as well as increase the ...
Bone loss in hepatitis B virus-infected patients can be associated with greater osteoclastic activity independently of the retroviral use
(2021-12-01)
Nucleoside/nucleotide analogs such as tenofovir, have been used as long-term therapy for the treatment of hepatitis B and side effects such as the reduction in bone mineral density have been associated with their use. To ...

Probing the top-Higgs sector with composite Higgs models at present and future hadron colliders
(2021-03-01)
We study the production of tt¯ h and tt¯ hh at hadron colliders, in the minimal Composite Higgs Models, based on the coset SO(5)/SO(4). We explore the fermionic representations 5 and 14. A detailed phenomenological analysis ...
