Cognitive impairments, including memory loss and attention deficits, persist in both severe and mild cases of COVID-19, impacting daily functioning, according to researchers at the University of So Paulo. Their study, which involved 302 volunteers, highlights the importance of cognitive rehabilitation strategies to overcome these lasting effects, even for those with mild symptoms. Studies have shown that when a patient was found to have acute COVID-19, the most severe effects of [...]

The upper boundary of the Southwest Atlantic mesophotic zone is now considered to be closer to 15-18 meters, according to a Brazilian study conducted in So Paulo that has challenged the 30-meter estimate and highlighted significant differences in species and ecology at this depth. The subtropical ocean region along the South American coastline has been redefined by scientists. They discovered that the upper boundary of the mesotrophic zone is actually occupying shallower waters than [...]

A bread made with probiotic yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae UFMG A-905 has been created by Brazilian researchers. This bread has been shown to prevent asthma symptoms in mice, and the bread has been patented to do so. The bread demonstrated reduced airway inflammation and asthma biomarkers in test subjects. The researchers hope that the bread can be utilized as a widely available natural food product to help manage asthma, although further trials with humans are needed. Researchers in [...]

In 2005, the MAE-USP team stumbled upon a burial unit that has since been re-analyzed using innovative techniques. The hypothesis that the Southern Jê's predecessors caused the disappearance of sambaquis-built communities along the Santa Catarina state coast for over 5,000 years has been rejected by archaeological research conducted near Laguna. The history of ancient sambaqui builders in Santa Catarina has been reconstructed by Brazilian researchers, who have found that they [...]

According to a study, IPA, a molecule found in the gut, has the potential to decrease influenza virus viral activity and inflammation in mice, with human trials being the next step towards confirming this. Researchers at the State University of Campinas in Brazil and the Pasteur Institute in Lille, France, discovered that mice exposed to influenza virus suffered a significant reduction in both viral load and inflammation after being given a specific substance. A study conducted by [...]

The University of São Paulo conducted a study that found COVID-19 to be highly damaging to male fertility. The study revealed that COVID-19 can remain in sperm for longer than three months, which may potentially reduce the quality of sperm. Despite the lack of PCR testing, the discovery of SARS-CoV-2 under the microscope in male reproductive cells raises the awareness of potential effects on natural conception and assisted reproduction. The COVID-19 virus can disrupt the [...]

A Brazilian study published in the journal Clinical Nutrition has revealed that an increased intake of ultra-processed foods can result in depression. The findings highlight the potential impact of high-processed foods on mental health. Major depressive disorder, or depression, is a prevalent and severe mental illness that causes individuals to feel sad, hopeless, and lack interest in activities that they once enjoyed. It can also cause physical symptoms like sleep disturbances, appetite, [...]

A Brazilian study has revealed that jaboticaba peel, which has phenolic compounds present in it, has been found to have beneficial health effects when used as a powder supplement. A study conducted by State University of Campinas researchers, who included 49 participants, discovered that takingenvironnemental with a dietary supplement (50% g/day, 15 g) for five weeks improved glucose metabolism after a meal. Despite being a popular pick-up stop in Brazil, the peel of the Jaboticaba berry [...]

The Sao Paulo-based P. squamosissimus was caught in the Chavantes reservoir. While it may be a competitor to indigenous species, it has become an important fishing resource in many parts of the country. The dominant fish population in the Jaguari reservoir and surrounding rivers in So Paulo, Brazil is due to the invasive species, including the Silver croaker, which has become a significant problem for the region's fish populations, causing a loss of a significant portion of the native [...]
