Research paper thumbnail of Accidents with Lepidoptera (Insecta): Biology, Poisonous, Clinical Manifestations, Treatment, Prevention, and Therapeutic Possibilities

These accidents are caused by contact with the bristles on the abdomen of females of certain species, belonging to the genus Hylesia Hübner, 1820 (Family: Hemileucidae). Therefore, the simple fact of penetration of the bristles seems to be capable of causing intense inflammatory, popular, and pruritic reactions. Pararama (pararamose) is the common name for a stinging caterpillar found in the artificial rubber plantations of Pará, Brazil, the larval stage of the moth Premolis semirufa (Walker, 1856) (Famíly: Erebidae). Therefore, accidental contact with the small bristles of the caterpillars or with those of the cocoons causes a chronic inflammatory reaction in the interphalangeal joints that leads to ankylosis. The morbid condition mainly affects rubber tappers and is classified as an occupational disease. Eruca=larva; erucism is poisoning caused by a moth larva. The main families of Lepidoptera fireworms that cause erucism accidents are Megalopygidae, Saturniidae, and Arctiidae. The caterpillars of the Megalopygidae family have a body covered with long, harmless bristles that cover the smaller, sharp spines that carry poison glands this manuscript aims to report the biological characteristics of venomous Lepidoptera (Insecta) and their biological, clinical manifestations, treatment, prevention, and therapeutic possibilities. That paper is a narrative review of the literature, which is designed to explain and discuss a certain subject from a theoretical or contextual perspective, to allow the reader to acquire or update knowledge on a specific topic. The scientific articles that made up this review were searched on Google Scholar, Biological Abstract, HAL, Qeios, ResearchGate, Scielo, and SSRN. The following descriptors in Health Sciences (DeCS) were used: biological therapy, larva, wound, debridement, and healing. The following inclusion criteria were considered: original articles and reviews, published nationally and internationally in full, available electronically, and published in Portuguese, English, and Spanish. The exclusion criteria were dissertations, theses, monographs, and conclusion work, duplicates, and those that required payment to access the content in full.

Research paper thumbnail of Study of the Bionomy and the Therapeutic Potential of a Substance Obtained from Spider Venom (Arthropoda: Araneae

The vast majority have venom that is not very toxic to the human body, as is the case with crabs. However, the venom of other spiders affects humans more seriously. This manuscript aims to verify the bionomics of spiders and their therapeutic potential (Arthropoda: Araneae). Regarding the type of research source, As for the type of research source, it was worked with scientific articles published in national and international magazines. This type of production is commonly the most valued in all bibliographic production and is the easiest to access. Access to articles was through virtual libraries such as SciELO, the University of São Paulo, Latin American Literature, and the University of Brasília. This library has a specific section for Hymenoptera, with journals and article texts available in full. Considering only this section constitutes a limitation of the study since articles belonging to journals that are part of other sections of the electronic library could also contribute to the discussion of the production of knowledge. However, in principle, within these articles, there could not necessarily be a discussion focused on biology, ecology, and taxonomy.

In leech saliva, in addition to substances that prevent blood clotting, there are also analgesic and anesthetic compounds that reduce pain. This article aims to study the characteristics of the leech (Annellida: Hirudinea: Rhynchobdelliformes) and its use in Medicine. This is a narrative review of the literature, which is indicated to explain and discuss a certain subject from a theoretical or contextual perspective, to allow the reader to ask questions and update knowledge on a specific topic.

Research paper thumbnail of Evaluation of the Efficiency of Neural Enolase (NSA) in the Diagnosis of Viral Encephalitis: A Medical Review

It is an inflammatory process of the meninges, the membranes that cover the central nervous system. Enolase isoenzyme found in neuronal and neuroendocrine tissues. Its levels in tissues other than erythrocytes are negligible. Its measurement is useful for monitoring tumors of neuroendocrine origin, such as neuroblastoma, pheochromocytoma, medullary thyroid carcinoma, small cell lung carcinoma, melanoma, and some pancreatic tumors. NSE concentrations in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are often elevated in diseases that result in relatively rapid neuronal destruction. This review aims to evaluate the efficiency of neural enolase (NSA) in diagnosing viral encephalitis. The methodology used an integrative literature review and a synthesis process to develop the study, expand the understanding of knowledge, and achieve the expected results. The integrative literature review is a method that aims to synthesize results obtained in research on a topic or issue, in a systematic, ordered, and comprehensive way. It is called integrative because it provides broader information on a subject/problem, thus constituting a body of knowledge. To carry out the study, a search for scientific articles was carried out through the Virtual Health Library, in the SCIELO, LILACS, and PUBMED databases, using the terminologies registered in the Health Sciences descriptors, encephalitis, enolase, virus, and diagnosis.

Going from a saltwater creature to a freshwater creature is not easy, however, and several modifications in appearance and physiology are necessary to survive the dramatic change in salinity. Their return to freshwater is not random, based on chemical signals left by the migration of lamprey larvae to return to rivers They can return to the same place they came from, but, unlike Pacific salmon, this precision is not always guaranteed, however, this transformation and the mapping of rivers require a lot of energy, and the animals resort to parasitization to survive. Lamprey swimming is among the most efficient in the world, as its movements generate zones of low pressure around the body, pulling the body through the water rather than pushing. The objective of this article was to characterize lampreys (Cyclostomata; Petromyzontiformes; Petromyzontidae) regarding their ecological and medicinal importance. The methodological analysis included studies of a particular topic. In its construction process, it is necessary to go through six essential stages: Identification of the theme and selection of the hypothesis or research question; establishment of criteria for inclusion and exclusion of studies/sampling or literature search; definition information to be extracted from selected studies/categorization of studies; evaluation of included studies; interpretation of results; and presentation of knowledge review/synthesis To carry out the study, a search for scientific articles was carried out through Virtual Health Library, in the SCIELO, LILACS, and PUMED databases, using the terminologies registered in the Health Sciences descriptors. Regarding the inclusion criteria, the following were used: Full articles, in Portuguese, and English

Its head is flat and its mouth is equipped with a row of sharp, conical teeth. The color of this animal is always very dark, but the ventral part of the body is yellowish and they have poor vision. This group of fish is known for their ability to generate and detect electrical fields in the environment in which they occur, and these characteristics are used in communication, prey detection, defense, reproduction and even to help these animals move in the absence of light. This manuscript aims to describe the biology, ecology, morphology, geographic distribution, life cycle, habitat, and therapeutic use of electric fish (Chordata: Actinopterygii: Gymnotiformes). Concerned with establishing a public profile of quality research in the area, we sought to answer these questions based on a literature review in the main journals (national and international) classified by the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES). Complement this analysis with other documents such as books, theses, dissertations, scientific journals, documents, and digital platforms.
