The current Covid-19 pandemic has affected more than 920,000 people and killed more than 46,000 worldwide. Most affected patients have a mild condition, but a small percentage, from the percentage point of view, but large in absolute numbers, may have a severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), with fever, cough, pulmonary infiltrates and hypoxemia, and may progress for respiratory failur…
The emergency physician's ability to quickly diagnose and make a prognosis about the evolution of a seriously ill patient can not only save lives but also help to reduce the burden on medical services. Unfortunately, not all diseases have specific markers that can help physicians in this decision (as is the case of troponin in patients with acute myocardial infarction). So our main goal i…
There is evidence that obesity complications such as type 2 diabetes and dyslipidemia can be attributed, at least partially, to the inflammatory response that occurs within adipose tissue.However, it is still unclear whether inflammation alone may play a role in the genesis of obesity. We also do not know the influence of an acute inflammatory event, such as that observed in sepsis, on en…

IntroductionSepsis is characterized by a dysregulated immune response to infection, which can lead to multiple organ failure and death. The main factor associated with the morbidity and mortality of the condition is the uncontrolled inflammatory response. However, the metabolic changes that occur in circulating leukocytes are not yet fully understood, nor is it clear how the oral microbio…
Delirium is defined as a state of a lowered level of consciousness, with a sudden onset or rapid evolution, which may be associated with agitation and hallucinations. It occurs more commonly in the elderly, as a complication of other disorders, whether infectious, toxic, or metabolic. Its diagnosis is based on the clinical picture that may be difficult to be perceived initially. There is …
There is a huge shortage of data on emergency care patient care throughout Brazil. This lack of data is even more evident when we focus attention on the elderly population.In this project, we aim to identify the population of patients seeking an Emergency Service, particularly those over 60, their clinical and laboratory differences from younger populations, and to assess whether severity…
In recent years we have witnessed an exponential increase in data processing and storage capacity in digital form, as well as statistical analysis capable of making the analysis of this data useful information.From a generic point of view, the concept of Big Data refers to the daily generation of a huge and very diverse amount of data that can no longer be analyzed by humans alone. One of…
