Achilles tendon rupture (ATR) is a common injury. The knowledge of seasonal factors´ impact is incomplete, but may provide means for preventive approaches for Achilles tendon related morbidity. The aim of this study was to investigate seasonal variations in ATR incidence in relation to injury mechanism, adverse events including risk of re-rupture, ...

The purpose of this study was to investigate potential changes in the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) structure of alpine ski racers over the course of an entire season using quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (T2* mapping). The dominant legs of three alpine ski racers were examined on a 3-T MR scanner four times at 3-month intervals. Multi-e...

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: To evaluate seasonal variation of 25(OH)vitamin D [25(OH)D3] levels, and factors associated with it, in healthy adult men, who exercised outdoors for 50 min., at least twice a week, from 10AM to 4PM, in a Brazilian semitropical region. METHODS: Blood samples were collected at the end of each season for 25(OH)D3, measured by liqui...

Aquaporins are transmembrane protein channels which are known to help the passage of water and solutes across the cell membranes. AQP1, AQP3 and AQP5 are isoforms of aquaporin known to aid in transepithelial water movement. AQP3 is also known to aid in glycerol transport. The present study was conducted to investigate the role of AQP1, AQP3 and AQP...

Soil respiration, soil enzymes, and microbial biomass are important in carbon cycling in the terrestrial ecosystem which is generally limited by environmental factors and soil carbon availability. Hence, we tried to assess the factors affecting the functional aspects of these processes in a semi-arid climate. We monitored soil respiration (surface)...

Mercury (Hg) biomagnification in fish food chains is a relevant subject due to the high fish consumption of the Amazonian population and the high toxicity of this metal. In the Amazon, floodplain lake hydrodynamics change considerably along the four seasons of the hydrological cycle (rising water, high water, falling water and low water), which can...
