Hypernatremia, a rare condition in newborns, is marked by elevated plasma sodium levels exceeding 150 mEq/L. It is more common in newborns who are exclusively breastfed or with excessive weight loss. Hypernatremic dehydration (HD) presents severe risks, including cerebral edema and other neurological complications. A female newborn, 12 days old (birth weight: 2800g), was brought to the Emergency Department due to a 30% decrease in birth weight and reduced urine output. The newborn was solely breastfed every 2 hours, with a good notion of adequate reflexes and tolerance. Physical examination revealed a skeletal appearance, jaundice, sunken eyes and skin turgor. Blood pressure measurement was unsuccessful, while capillary blood glucose was 96g/dL. A saline bolus (10 mL/Kg)was administered. Venous blood gas analysis showed pH 7.39, lactate 4.3 mmol/L, HCO3-21.8 mmol/L, and Na+ 180 mEq/L.

Aim: The objective of this study was to determine the histological degree of breast cancer malignancy using the automated principle of machine learning with the free access computer programs Cell Profiler and Tanagra. Methods and results: Digital photographs of neoplastic tissue histological slides were obtained from 224 women with breast cancer. The digitized images were transferred to the Cell Profiler software and treated according to a predetermined algorithm, resulting in a database exported to the Tanagra software for further automated classification of the histological degree of malignancy. The Kappa index of agreement between the medical pathologist and the automated analysis performed in the Tanagra software was 0.91 for the tubular score, 0.55 for the nuclear score, and 0.49 for the mitotic index score.

Introduction:The elderly undergo bio psychosocial and functional changes that reduce their ability to adapt to the environment. In addition, pathological processes occur that make the elderly more susceptible to frailty. Methodology:The methodology used for this analysis was based on a literature review, in which the sources were obtained from the SciELO, Google Scholar, and PubMed data platforms. Discussion: Ageing raises concerns about the impact on the quality of life of these individuals (Lenardt et al., 2016). According to Who (1995), quality of life is an individual's perception of their position in life according to the context in which they live and their relationship with expectations, goals, and concerns. In this sense, it can be seen that quality of life suffers from internal and external influences (Jesus et al., 2018).

Introduction: When addressing the COVID-19 pandemic, one must also address its remnants, as well as the Long COVID-19 Syndrome,or just Long COVID-19, which addresses a group of symptoms common to COVID, but which persist even after the infectious picture has ended. The main symptoms are fatigue, dyspnea, joint and muscle pain,headaches, and brain fog. Other symptoms, such as arrhythmias, anxiety, and sleep disorders, have been described, but the cause of these sequelae and the reason for them are not known for certain. Methodology: This is a literaturere view based on the SciELO and PubMed data platforms. The search period was July 2023, meeting the inclusion criteria of articles from 2000 to 2023, in Portuguese and English, online, and in full text. The following health descriptors (DeCS) were used as strategies to better evaluate the texts: "Long COVID syndrome", "COVID" and "Post COVID syndrome".

International regulatory organizations for quality control of X-ray systems, such as the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), have implemented protocols for acceptance testing of digital mammography and breast tomosynthesis equipment, aiming to establish quality standards in radiology services. However, these guidelines are usually based on tests with breast phantoms with standardizedthicknesses and compositions, often not representative of the patient population profiles at those services. In a prior study, we developed a computational system designed to automatically tracking and managing data extracted from the image acquisition processes of digital mammography and breast tomosynthesis, stored on a DICOM SCP (Service Class Provider) server. This approach enables obtaining technical reports characterizing exposure parameters and tests have shown that the reference levels outlined in international standards for breast composition and radiation dose do not accurately reflect the characteristics of the actual patient population. Thus this study describes data collection and corresponding analysis for the dose tracking process primarily on three digital mammography systems of different radiological services. Extensive image datasets from these systems were obtained using a new application described previously, with a focus on dose profiles generated during exposures. Graphical representations resultingfrom the datasets are presented, along with analysis of skin entrance and mean glandular doses distributions, average kV and mAs applied during the exams together with the target/filter combinations, radiographic density distribution, as well as the age and breast thickness characteristic of the respective population submitted to exposures in each of those mammography services. Additionally, the extent of information and ease of acquisition provided by the tool for performance evaluation of digital mammography services is discussed
国际原子能机构（IAEA）等负责 X 射线系统质量控制的国际监管组织已经实施了数字乳腺 X 射线照相术和乳腺断层合成术设备验收测试协议，旨在建立放射服务的质量标准。然而，这些指南通常都是基于具有标准化厚度和成分的乳房模型进行测试，而这些模型通常并不能代表这些服务机构的病人群体特征。在之前的一项研究中，我们开发了一个计算系统，用于自动跟踪和管理从数字乳腺 X 射线照相术和乳腺断层合成术图像采集过程中提取的数据，这些数据存储在 DICOM SCP（服务类提供商）服务器上。测试表明，乳腺成分和辐射剂量国际标准中列出的参考水平并不能准确反映实际患者群体的特征。因此，本研究描述了主要针对不同放射服务机构的三台数字乳腺 X 射线摄影系统的剂量跟踪过程的数据收集和相应分析。这些系统的大量图像数据集是通过之前介绍过的一种新应用软件获取的，重点是曝光过程中产生的剂量曲线。数据集生成的图表展示了皮肤入口剂量和平均腺体剂量分布、检查期间使用的平均 kV 和 mAs 以及目标/滤波器组合、放射密度分布，以及每个乳腺 X 射线照相服务机构接受照射人群的年龄和乳房厚度特征。此外，还讨论了数字乳腺 X 射线照相服务性能评估工具所提供信息的范围和获取的难易程度。

The aging process of the face is characterized by transformations in the skin, bone, and adipose tissue. As the understanding of these changes has expanded, so too has the range of available filler products in the market. To maximize the effectiveness of hyaluronic acid, it is crucial to have a comprehensive understanding of its rheological properties. The numerous commercially available brands of hyaluronic acid differ in several aspects, such as the purity of their raw materials, methods of manufacturing, concentration of hyaluronic acid, presence and level of cross-linking, and ability to provide volume and withstand degradation. Aiming at the most assertive use of this product, features as viscosity (η), complex modulus (G*), elastic modulus (G"), tan d, cross-linking, concentration and swelling factor must be addressed, correlating them with their expected clinical effects.

Purpose: The mechanical behavior of two different implant drill systems for osteotomy preparation using polyurethane foam models were evaluated. Methods: Fourteen polyurethane foam models and 28 Neodent® drills and 28 Dentoflex® drills were used. In a controlled environment, the perforations were timed, and an infrared digital thermometer and a K-type sensor were used to measure the temperature before and after perforations. Each group was divided into 7 subgroups: S5 = 5 perforations, S10 = 10 perforations, S15 = 15 perforations, S20 = 20 perforations, S30 = 30 perforations, S40 = 40 perforations, and S50 = 50 perforations. Results: In the S5 and S10 subgroup, drilling time of the drills with three helical cutting edges was longer (p <0.05) and temperature 1 was lower (p = 0.034) in the S10 group.

Background: In today’s dynamic health systems, technology plays an essential role in education and nursing practice. Therefore, it is necessary to study the changing role of nurses and highlight the need for appropriate information technology educational programs to integrate with the ever-increasing pace of technology. Nursing informatics helps improve vital nursing processes, such as documentation, which is a critical aspect of the profession and essential for effective patient care. Before electronic health records, nurses recorded patient information on charts, which could easily be mismanaged. Today, nursing informatics simplifies documentation and automates the transmission of patient data via connected devices to provide access for nurses, physicians, and patients.
