2. Avaliação psicológica e intervenção farmacológica de crianças autistas em dois serviços públicos
A intervenção farmacológica e a avaliação psicológica no autismo têm sido um grande desafio na prática clínica e pesquisas na área, dada a heterogeneidade de quadros clínicos e multiplicidade etiológica. O presente estudo analisou os prontuários de 165 pacientes de um serviço público de saúde mental da infância e adolescência em Brasília e

3. Análise de Impacto do Polimorfismo Genético do Subtipo C do HIV-1 na Interação da Protease Viral com o Inibidor Nelfinavir por Modelagem e Dinâmica Molecular / Analyse the Impact of Genetic Polymorphism of subtype C of HIV-1 Protease Inhibitors in the Interaction Viral With the Inhibitor Nelfinavir by Modeling and Molecular Dynamics
The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) can be divided into HIV-1 and HIV-2. The former can be divided into groups: M, N and O. Group M, which represents 90% of infections, is divided into several subtypes (A, B, C, D, F, G, H, J and K). It is known today that the most prevalent subtype in the world (and in Africa) is the subtype C, although the most studied

5. Postcardiotomy Right Ventricular Failure: Experience with Pulmonary Arterial Balloon Counterpulsation and Pulmonary Arterial Venting
From 1981 through 1985, 3,057 patients underwent cardiac operations using cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) at our institution. When we reviewed these cases, we found that in ten cases (0.32%) right ventricular or biventricular failure had prevented weaning from CPB. All ten patients were also refractory to pharmacologic intervention and to systemic intraaortic b

6. Nuclear localization and function of polypeptide ligands and their receptors: a new paradigm for hormone specificity within the mammary gland?
The specific effects triggered by polypeptide hormone/growth factor stimulation of mammary cells were considered mediated solely by receptor-associated signaling networks. A compelling body of new data, however, clearly indicates that polypeptide ligands and/or their receptors are transported into the nucleus, where they function directly to regulate the exp

7. Association of α1-Antitrypsin Deficiency With Lung and Liver Diseases
α1-Protease inhibitor (α1-Pi) deficiency is associated with emphysema, neonatal hepatitis and cirrhosis. The deficiency associated with emphysema has multiple alleles. Cigarette smoke may influence the onset of emphysema in a twofold manner: by overwhelming the concentration of α1-Pi by increasing elastase release, and by inactivating the α1-Pi active si

8. Stroke. Revolution in therapy.
Stroke remains the third leading cause of death in this country, although recent advances in both clinical and basic science research have revolutionized the concept of stroke. Studies of primary and secondary stroke prevention have now documented the means to prevent thousands of cases of stroke each year. Three distinct strategies are evolving for interven

9. Refractory Depressed and Anxious States in Hyperthymic Women: A Case Series Generated by a Speaking Engagement
The author discusses 4 referrals that were the direct result of a case description from his own practice that he presented during a lecture on the treatment of mixed anxious and depressive illness in primary care. The cases depict energetic, productive women who suffer fatigue and episodic depressions. These cases suggest that hyperthymic temperaments compli

10. Mental stress and myocardial ischemia. Correlates and potential interventions.
In past years, indirect evidence has suggested a link between mental stress and coronary artery disease. Recent research in coronary artery disease patients has confirmed the observation that mental stress is a potent trigger of myocardial ischemia in both the laboratory and the field. The pathophysiologic effects of mental stress appear to operate via alter

11. The Benefits of Exercise for the Clinically Depressed
Millions of Americans suffer from clinical depression each year. Most depressed patients first seek treatment from their primary care providers. Generally, depressed patients treated in primary care settings receive pharmacologic therapy alone. There is evidence to suggest that the addition of cognitive-behavioral therapies, specifically exercise, can improv

12. A family of Acrp30/adiponectin structural and functional paralogs
Biochemical, genetic, and animal studies in recent years have established a critical role for the adipokine Acrp30/adiponectin in controlling whole-body metabolism, particularly by enhancing insulin sensitivity in muscle and liver, and by increasing fatty acid oxidation in muscle. We describe a widely expressed and highly conserved family of adiponectin para
