Baumgartner JN, da Silva TF, Valencia E, Susser E.
PMID: 24288454
Cad Saude Colet. 2012 Jan;20(4). doi: 10.1590/S1414-462X2012000400005.

Global mental health movements increasingly highlight the importance of social integration for individuals living with severe mental illnesses. However, this important individual-level outcome is rarely measured in programs. As part of RedeAmericas, a pilot regional randomized controlled trial of...

BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIM: Worldwide some endoscopy units routinely continue to use manual reprocessing techniques for disinfection of side-view endoscopes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcome quality of manual reprocessing techniques for removal and inactivation...

Automatic Masking for Robust 3D-2D Image Registration in Image-Guided Spine Surgery.

Proceedings of SPIE--the International Society for Optical Engineering

Ketcha MD, De Silva T, Uneri A, Kleinszig G, Vogt S, Wolinsky JP, Siewerdsen JH.
PMID: 27335531
Proc SPIE Int Soc Opt Eng. 2016;9786. doi: 10.1117/12.2216913. Epub 2016 Mar 18.

During spinal neurosurgery, patient-specific information, planning, and annotation such as vertebral labels can be mapped from preoperative 3D CT to intraoperative 2D radiographs via image-based 3D-2D registration. Such registration has been shown to provide a potentially valuable means of...

Proceedings of SPIE--the International Society for Optical Engineering

De Silva T, Punnoose J, Uneri A, Goerres J, Jacobson M, Ketcha MD, Manbachi A, Vogt S, Kleinszig G, Khanna AJ, Wolinksy JP, Osgood G, Siewerdsen JH.
PMID: 28572694
Proc SPIE Int Soc Opt Eng. 2017 Feb 11;10135. doi: 10.1117/12.2256028. Epub 2017 Mar 03.

INTRODUCTION: Fluoroscopically guided procedures often involve repeated acquisitions for C-arm positioning at the cost of radiation exposure and time in the operating room. A virtual fluoroscopy system is reported with the potential of reducing dose and time spent in...

This dataset contains information on the occurrence of Neotropical fishes (Actinopterygii, Chondrichthyes, Sarcopterygii) collected in South America, mostly from the Brazilian Amazon. The ichthyology collections of the Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi (MPEG: http://www.museu-goeldi.br/) include specimens collected between 1900 and...

What Factors Guide the Selection of Medicinal Plants in a Local Pharmacopoeia? A Case Study in a Rural Community from a Historically Transformed Atlantic Forest Landscape.

Evidence-based complementary and alternative medicine : eCAM

da Silva TC, da Silva JM, Ramos MA.
PMID: 29576793
Evid Based Complement Alternat Med. 2018 Jan 21;2018:2519212. doi: 10.1155/2018/2519212. eCollection 2018.

The criteria that local people use for selecting medicinal plants have been a recurrent topic in pharmacology and ethnobotany. Two of the current hypotheses regarding this phenomenon, ecological apparency and diversification, attempt to explain the inclusion of "apparent" and...
