South American Indians : a case study in evolution

TL;DR: Origins and early differentiation Historical populations, and the physical, biotic, and cultural environment Population structure Ecology, nutrition, and physiological adaptation Disease patterns Morphology Discontinuous genetic variability - description, analysis by system, and multivariate analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nuclear morphometric analysis (NMA): screening of senescence, apoptosis and nuclear irregularities.

TL;DR: An analytic tool to quantify the number of cells in a population that present characteristics of senescence, apoptosis or nuclear irregularities through nuclear morphometric analysis is presented, based on nuclear image analysis and evaluation of size and regularity of adhered cells in culture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Historical genetics: spatiotemporal analysis of the formation of the Brazilian population.

TL;DR: The estimated relative proportions of the above‐indicated continental contributions showed intermediate values between those obtained with uniparental (mtDNA, Y‐chromosome) data, and a higher percentage of European heritage as compared to previous autosome results.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Impact of Gastric Bypass on Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease in Morbidly Obese Patients.

TL;DR: For most morbidly obese patients, in addition to causing significant weight loss, GBP reduces GERD symptoms, improves reflux esophagitis, and decreases esophageal acid exposure for longer than 3 years.
Journal ArticleDOI

The impact of gastric bypass on gastroesophageal reflux disease in patients with morbid obesity: a prospective study based on the Montreal Consensus.

TL;DR: GBP ameliorated GERD syndromes in most patients 6 months after the procedure, resulting in quality of life improvement and less proton pump inhibitors usage.
