Caching is the practice of storing data in proximity or within a faster storage system for rapid retrieval. This occurs at various locations, and in this paper, we will delve into the different areas where data caching is possible. We will closely examine the challenges associated with caching and explore ways to address them through a comparative study of middle-tier caching solutions. Additionally, we will explore the range of caching solutions available in the computer science ecosystem.
Nutcracker syndrome (CNS) is characterized by compression of the left renal vein (LRV) between the abdominal aorta and the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) due to a reduction in the aortic-mesenteric angle. Stenosis of the ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) occurs due to obstruction of urinary flow at the anatomical confluence of the proximal ureter with the renal pelvis, due to intrinsic or extrinsic forces, and may be congenital or acquired.

A mortalidade materna e a Razão de Mortalidade Materna (RMM) são importantes indicadores a fim de avaliar a qualidade assistencial. Destaca-se a importância de conhecer as disparidades locais com intuito de subsidiar processos de gestão e políticas de saúde. Portanto, o objetivo deste estudo foi traçar o perfil da mortalidade materna no Amapá, norte do Brasil, entre os anos de 2017 e 2021. Foram coletados dados do Departamento de Informática do Sistema Único de Saúde (DATASUS) sobre os números de mortalidade materna.
Background: Epidemics are an unexpected, often sudden, increase in the incidence of a particular disease within a community or region. A pandemic occurs when an epidemic spreads throughout the world, crossing international borders and affecting large numbers of people. Epidemics and pandemics can be prevented and mitigated by predicting their occurrence well in advance, so medical records can be considered one of the tools through which an epidemic can be predicted.
