Body mass index and sperm quality: effects of overweight and underweight
(IVIRMA Global, IVIRMA Global, 2013)
We previously reported a negative association between body mass index (BMI) and sperm motility and seminal alpha-glucosidase concentrations (NAG), suggesting that epididymis may be a target organ for weight-linked alterations. ...
Enteric viruses in surface waters from Argentina: molecular and viable-virus detection
(2018)
Water resources contaminated with wastewater are an important source for the dissemination of enteric viruses with an impact on the health of the population. The aim of the study was to assess the viral contamination of ...
Clinical and clinically oriented anatomy for medical students
(Federación Internacional de Asociaciones de Anatomistas, 2013-06-06)
Medicine curriculum in the University of on Cordoba was changed in 1973. Until that time Anatomy was developed into four different courses: descriptive anatomy, topographic anatomy, surgical technique and surgical anatomy ...
Brachiocephalic trunk anomalies and variations
(Revista Argentina de Anatomía Clínica, 2013-05-24)
Knowledge of anatomical anomalies and variations on the brachiocephalic trunk (BCT) are important in medical practice, mainly for the interpretation of diagnostic images, in surgical procedures of thorax and neck, and may ...
Ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency: identification of mutations, computational validation, and phenotypic correlation in argentinian patients
(2013)
Ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (OTCD; Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man [OMIM] 311250) is an urea cycle defect with Xlinked inheritance. In hemizygous males, neonatal or late onset depends on the degree of ...
Creatine metabolism and hyperammonemia in argentinian patients with ornithine transcarbamilase deficiency
(2013)
Introduction: Creatine (Cr) biosynthesis requires 2 enzymes, arginine–glycine amidinotransferase and guanidinoacetate methyltransferase, and it can be taken up by cells using transporters. Recent studies demonstrated the ...
Application of concept mapping for histology and system immune learning
(American Society for Cell Biology (ASCB), American Society for Cell Biology (ASCB), 2013)
The main objective of this work in University Teaching, National Technological University, Cordoba Regional Faculty, Argentina, was to characterize the implementation of the strategy of concept mapping for learning Histology ...
cDNA isolation and expression of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-dependent cytochrome P450 reductase gene in the Chagas disease vector Triatoma infestans
(American Society of Tropial Medicine and Hygiene, 2018)
Pyrethroid resistance has been detected in Triatoma infestans (Hemiptera: Reduviidae), which was atributed to target site insensitivity and increased oxidative metabolism of the insecticide by cytochrome P450s. NADPH ...
St. Louis Encephalitis
(2013)
St. Louis encephalitis virus (SLEV) was isolated for the first time during a human encephalitis outbreak in St. Louis, Missouri (USA) in 1933 (Lumsden 1958). The viral isolation was carried out from a brain sample of a ...
NLRP3 inflammasome and caspase-1/11 pathway orchestrate different outcomes in the host protection against trypanosoma cruzi acute infection
(2018)
Infection with protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi results in activation of nucleotide-binding domain and leucine-rich repeat containing receptors (NLRs). NLR activation leads to inflammasome formation, the activation of ...
