EDITORIAL Rudolph Virchow’s Public Health Engagement and Theodor Khoury’s Legacy Consolato M. Sergi 09/May/2024DOI: 10.31744/einstein_journal/2024ED01003 Virchow: the multitalented physician Virchow was a multifaceted German physician (). He excelled in anthropology, biology, pathology, and politics. Virchow pursued his medical education at Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität in Berlin. While at the Charité hospital, he studied the typhus outbreak in Upper Silesia (1848), establishing the basis for public health in Germany.() Virchow linked the Rickettsia prowazekii outbreak to poverty.(,) Virchow contended that eradicating social disparity was the sole means to avert future epidemics.() Virchow’s crusade against antisemitism was extraordinary, prompted by […] More einstein (São Paulo). 09/May/2024;22:eAO0676. ORIGINAL ARTICLE Retrospective analysis of 1,203 cases of referral to a quaternary vascular surgery outpatient clinic within the Unified Health System, São Paulo, Brazil Felipe Soares Oliveira Portela , Carlos Augusto Rossetti , Thulio Fernandes de Souza , Arthur Souza Magnani , Marcelo Fiorelli Alexandrino da Silva , Maria Fernanda Cassino Portugal , [...] 09/May/2024DOI: 10.31744/einstein_journal/2024AO0676 Highlights Forty-three percent of referrals from basic healthcare units to a specialized vascular surgical service were regarded as inappropriate. The main reasons for inappropriate referrals included study participants without an indication for surgery and those referred to the wrong specialty. A high proportion of inappropriate referrals resulted in the subutilization of highly complex services. Use of telemedicine will assist in reducing the rate of inappropriate referrals. ABSTRACT Objective: Consequently, in this study, we aimed to evaluate 1,203 cases of referral […] More einstein (São Paulo). 09/May/2024;22:eAO0637. ORIGINAL ARTICLE Low grip strength and gait speed as markers of dependence regarding basic activities of daily living: the FIBRA study Juliana Carvalho Segato Marincolo , Daniela de Assumpção , Mariana Reis Santimaria , Ivan Aprahamian , Mônica Sanches Yassuda , Anita Liberalesso Neri , [...] 09/May/2024DOI: 10.31744/einstein_journal/2024AO0637 Highlights A total of 11.7% had concomitant limitations in activities of daily living, slow gait speed, and low muscle strength. Grip strength was not associated with limitations in activities of daily living. Slow gait speed increases the likelihood of limitations in activities of daily living. Gait speed is an essential variable for screening functional decline in older people. ABSTRACT Objective: To determine whether low muscle strength and low gait speed increase the risk of disability related to basic activities of […] More einstein (São Paulo). 06/May/2024;22:eAO0764.

PEG-coated gold nanoparticles exhibited very low cytotoxicity effects. This in vivo study did not reveal hematopoietic, renal, or hepatic alterations. The histopathological analysis did not present any tissue or cellular damage. ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the in vitro and in vivo toxicities of polyethylene glycol-coated gold nanoparticles synthesized using a one-step process. Methods: Gold nanoparticles were prepared via a co-precipitation method using polyethylene glycol, and the synthesis product was characterized. For […] More einstein (São Paulo). 06/May/2024;22:eAO0514.

Non-white and older women are more likely to develop hypertension. Maternal conditions determine most cases of preterm delivery among women with hypertension. ABSTRACT Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of hypertensive disorders during pregnancy among Brazilian women with preterm births and to compare the epidemiological characteristics and perinatal outcomes among preterm births of women with and without hypertension. Methods: This was a secondary cross-sectional analysis of […] More...
