A sexualidade é uma função biológica humana que não se atém à genitalidade e sim à corporalidade total. Segundo a Neuroendocrinologia, a função sexual é um fenômeno biopsicossocial complexo no qual estímulos internos e externos são modulados pelo sistema nervoso central e periférico, resultando em uma cascata de alterações bioquímicas, hormonais e circulatórias que culminam no resultado sexual ...

The appendix is found in the hernial sac in around 1% of inguinal hernias and an inflamed appendix is found in only 0.13% of cases. A variant of this, an appendix inside a femoral hernia, is called a Garengeot hernia 4. In 1937, Ryan described 11 cases of acute appendicitis (within an inguinal hernia) among 8,692 cases of appendicitis 12. Another author 1 reported 10 cases of appendicitis withi...

Sexual dysfunctions have been the most prevalent group of sexual disorders and include a large number of populations of both sexes.The research of sexual behavior and treatment of women with sexual distress arises many questions related to differences in sexual response of men and women.

A study 3,000 Americans ages 18 to 59 found that sexual dysfunction was more prevalent for women (43%) than men the same age group (31%), marker poor health directly related specifically (Laumann et al., 1999). multitude studies show a circular relati...

Laboratory selections for resistance of Tribolium castaneum, adults to low oxygen concentrations (LOC) and high carbon dioxide concentrations (HCC) have shown that this species is capable of developing low but significant levels of resistance to the respective modified atmospheres (MAs). Also resistance obtained in adults was partially transferred to the eggs and larvae. Studies on the modes of...

In the fruitfly Drosophila melanogaster, the paralogue genes spalt (sal) and spalt related (salr) encode putative transcription factors with spaced sets of zinc-finger motifs. They belong to a gene family expressed from early development in nervous tissue in humans and several animal groups (Kühnlein et al., 1994; Barrio et al., 1996). The importance of sal homologues for neuronal development h...

Prevalence data suggest that more than 40% of women experience sexual problems and that 12% of these women are distressed by the problem. In the 1960s, Masters and Johnson introduced what is now considered the classic linear model of female sexual response based on a physiologic foundation. Recently, Rosemary Basson introduced a nonlinear interconnected model which emphasizes the importance of ...
