Exposure to indoor wood smoke, rather than hypoxemia, is a risk factor for cognitive impairment in COPD patients living at high altitude

Mauricio González-García · Nadia Juliana Proaños · Alejandro Casas-Herrera · Abraham Alí-Munive · y 2 más

Background In the general population without COPD, indoor air pollution from biomass is a causal factor of cognitive impairment (CI). CI is also common in patients with tobacco smoke COPD and has been associated with hypoxemia and cardiovascular comorbidities. CI and its risk factors have not been evaluated in COPD pat...

Evaluation of lung and abdominal point-of-care ultrasound congestion findings at discharge to predict rehospitalization and death in adults with acute heart failure: systematic review and metaanalysis

E Acosta Gutierrez · S Velasco Malagon · S Salinas · C Espinosa · y 1 más

Abstract Background Congestion is a central pathophysiological feature of acute heart failure (AHF). However, its definition and, therefore, depletive therapy and discharge decisions remain challenging for clinicians. Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is a tool that might allow the evaluation of organic congestion; howe...

Molecular and demographic landscape of advanced cutaneous melanoma: A 10-year experience of a national reference laboratory in Colombia (2014–2023).

e21523 Background: Cutaneous melanoma (CM) exhibits significant biological heterogeneity. While BRAF V600 mutations are reported in 40-50% of cases globally, their frequency varies by ethnicity. In Latin America, subtypes like acral lentiginous and mucosal melanoma are more prevalent, presenting distinct mutational pro...

3D-printed ceramic scaffolds with colloidal silver and Moringa oleifera extracts for potential antimicrobial water treatment

Ana Isabel Moreno Florez · Carolina Duque Uribe · Melissa Ocampo Avendaño · Maria Acosta · y 6 más

Ceramic filters are an effective, low-cost solution for water potabilization, particularly in rural communities. The integration of 3D printing has advanced this traditional approach by enabling precise control over design parameters that govern filtration efficiency. Gyroid-type ceramic scaffolds for water treatment w...

One small step for citizens, one giant leap for science: iNaturalist records boost our understanding of the evolution of parental care in a clade of arachnids

Glauco Machado · Bruno A Buzatto · Daniel S Caetano · Edgardo Flores · y 16 más

Abstract Citizen-science platforms have become powerful tools for documenting natural history, but their potential for reconstructing behavioural evolution remains largely unexplored. Here, we combine field and laboratory records with a systematic survey of iNaturalist observations to investigate the evolution of paren...
