   Immune checkpoint inhibitors against Programmed Cell Death Protein 1/Programmed Cell (PD-1/PD-L1) and CTLA-4/B7 axes have had limited success in hematologic malignancies, requiring the need to explore alternative targets such as T-cell immunoreceptor with Ig and ITIM domains (TIGIT)/CD155 to impr...

2. Optic nerve sheath diameter and ophthalmic artery doppler in pregnant patients. Can ocular sonography play a role as a point-of-care ultrasound for anaesthesiologists? A pilot study

   EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ANAESTHESIOLOGY, v.40, n.7, p.531-534, 2023

3. Influence of polymorphisms in <i>IRS1</i>, <i>IRS2</i>, <i>MC3R</i>, and <i>MC4R </i>on metabolic and inflammatory status and food intake in Brazilian adults: An exploratory pilot study

   NUTRITION RESEARCH, v.119, p.21-32, 2023

   Polymorphisms in genes of leptin-melanocortin and insulin pathways have been associated with obesity and type 2 diabetes. We hypothesized that polymorphisms in IRS1, IRS2, MC3R, and MC4R influence metabolic and inflammatory markers and food intake composi tion in Brazilian subjects. This explorat...

4. Post-operative pain management by nurses in an intensive care unit: a best practice implementation project

7. Comparison of Quality of Life in Breast Cancer Survivors with and without Persistent Depressive Symptoms: A 12-Month Follow-Up Study

   INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH, v.20, n.4, article ID 3663, p, 2023

   Although breast cancer treatments reduce mortality, their adverse effects can increase depression which impacts one’s quality of life (QoL). Physical activity (PA) seems to improve the QoL of breast cancer survivors (BCS). However, an unanswered question is the influence of PA on the QoL in BCS w...
