The general objective of this research was to propose a new fire risk index, specifically the Fire Risk Atlantic Forest (FIAF) index in Itatiaia National Park (PNI). data were collected from two levels (2 and 10 m) micrometeorological tower, with time series on an hourly scale, daily 2018 2021. Two multiple regression models generated for collection (FIAF 2 and, based statistical criteria choic...

Emergent surgery is necessary in patients with strangulation ileus. However, such procedures are associated high morbidity and mortality. A retrospective analysis was performed to determine whether the preoperative C-reactive protein/albumin ratio (CAR); neutrophil/lymphocyte (NLR); prognostic nutritional index (PNI) good indicators of mortality or undergoing emergent operations for treatment 1...

Neuropathic pain is caused by peripheral nerve injury (PNI). One hallmark symptom is allodynia (pain caused by normally innocuous stimuli), but its mechanistic underpinning remains elusive. Notably, whether selective stimulation of non-nociceptive primary afferent Aβ fibers indeed evokes neuropathic pain-like sensory and emotional behaviors after PNI is unknown, because of the lack of tools to ...

1. Primates meet their nutritional goals by prioritizing certain nutritional parameters when choosing the types and quantities of different foods. 2. There are five major models applied in primate nutritional ecology, each of which proposes that diet selection subserves a different primary nutritional goal: (i) energy maximization; (ii) nitrogen (protein) maximization; (iii) avoidance or regula...

Aim: The incidence of adverse postoperative outcomes in surgeries for femur fractures is high and associated with malnutrition. In this study, it was aimed to determine the independent factors 6-month survival patients fracture evaluate predictive value prognostic nutrition index (PNI).
 
 Material Method: One hundred sixteen operated on only femoral were divided into non-survival gro...

BACKGROUND We aim to investigate the prognostic value of several nutrition-based indices, including the prognostic nutritional index (PNI), performance status, body mass index, serum albumin, and preoperative body weight loss in patients with gastric cancer (GC). MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the records of 1,330 consecutive patients with GC undergoing curative surgery bet...

OBJECTIVE Determine the prognostic value of perineural invasion (PNI) in patients with transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the bladder treated with radical cystectomy. MATERIALS AND METHODS From January 1993 to January 2005, 113 people were selected from 153 patients with TCC of the bladder treated with radical cystectomy. The association between the presence of PNI and other pathologic char...

Accumulating evidence indicates that peripheral nerve injury (PNI) activates spinal microglia that are necessary for neuropathic pain. Recent studies using bone marrow (BM) chimeric mice have reported that after PNI, circulating BM-derived cells infiltrate into the spinal cord and differentiate into microglia-like cells. This raises the possibility that the population of spinal microglia after ...
