ABSTRACT Purpose This study investigated the effects of two levels of noise on the performance of young students of three educational levels and tested their ability to maintain attentional focus in reading and writing tasks. Methods 162 school children in the third, fourth and fifth grades were placed in three groups according to their educational level: Control Group (CG), Experimental Group A (GEA) and Experimental Group B (GEB). All groups were submitted to a Sustained Attention Test, Reading...

Deceased after circulatory death (DCD) donors offer a viable solution to the current organ shortage, particularly the Maastricht Class III (arrest subsequent to cessation of life support in the hospital). Although current results from these donors are very satisfactory, the number of included donors is too low and future expansion of inclusion criteria will likely decrease organ quality, with negative consequences on the complication rate. This donor type thus represents a priority in terms of scientific...
Abstract Purpose To examine the craniofacial and airway morphology as well as the quality of life before and after passive myofunctional therapy (PMFT) for 1 year in children with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Methods Forty children with OSA wearing an oral device nightly (treatment group) and seventeen without the device (control group) were followed up...
