Evaluation of MSW incineration bottom ash for environmentally safe geotechnical...
Bandarra, B. S.; Monteiro, L. R.; Veloso, G; Abreu, P.; Sousa, H.; Martins, R. C.; Pereira, J. L.; Coelho, P. A. L. F.; Quina, Margarida J.Circular economy envisages resource efficiency and minimization of the negative impacts of waste on the environment and human health. This work considers municipal solid waste incineration bottom ash (IBA) for safe use in geotechnical works, through physical, chemical, ecotoxicological, and geotechnical analysis of samples with different weathering periods. Low leaching potential and no relevant ecotoxic effect...
Predictors of myositis in mixed connective tissue disease: a multicentre retros...
Melo, A. T.; António, M. Silvério; Martinho, J. Martins; Guimarães, F.; Dourado, E.; Oliveira, D.; Lopes, J.; Saraiva, A.; Gago, A.; Correia, M.Objectives: We aimed to identify clinical and serological predictors of myositis in mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD). Methods: We performed a nationwide, retrospective, multicentre study including adult-onset MCTD patients fulfilling at least one of the following diagnostic criteria: Sharp’s, Kasukawa, Alarcón-Segovia, or Kahn’s. Univariable analysis was performed using Chi-square, Fisher exact, Student’s...

Thrombus aspiration in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction: result...
Pereira, H.; Caldeira, D.; Teles, R.; Costa, M.; Silva, P.; Ribeiro, V.; Brandão, V.; Martins, D.; Matias, F.; Pereira-Machado, F.; Baptista, J.BACKGROUND: We aimed to evaluate the impact of thrombus aspiration (TA) during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (P-PCI) in 'real-world' settings. METHODS: We performed a retrospective study, using data from the National Registry of Interventional Cardiology (RNCI 2006-2012, Portugal) with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients treated with P-PCI. The primary outcome, in-hospital mortality...

Multi-messenger Observations of a Binary Neutron Star Merger
Pierre Auger and other collaborations (3541 authors); Mura, G.La; Abreu, P.; Andringa, S.; Assis, P.; Blanco, A.; Cazon, L.; Conceição, R.; Diogo, F.On 2017 August 17 a binary neutron star coalescence candidate (later designated GW170817) with merger time 12:41:04 UTC was observed through gravitational waves by the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo detectors. The Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor independently detected a gamma-ray burst (GRB 170817A) with a time delay of $\sim 1.7\,{\rm{s}}$ with respect to the merger time. From the gravitational-wave signal, th...
Muon counting using silicon photomultipliers in the AMIGA detector of the Pierr...
Pierre Auger collaboration (422 authors); Abreu, P.; Andringa, S.; Assis, P.; Blanco, A.; Cazon, L.; Conceição, R.; Diogo, F.; Espadanal, J.; Lopes, L.AMIGA (Auger Muons and Infill for the Ground Array) is an upgrade of the Pierre Auger Observatory designed to extend its energy range of detection and to directly measure the muon content of the cosmic ray primary particle showers. The array will be formed by an infill of surface water-Cherenkov detectors associated with buried scintillation counters employed for muon counting. Each counter is composed of three...
Search for High-energy Neutrinos from Binary Neutron Star Merger GW170817 with ...
ANTARES, IceCube, Pierre Auger, LIGO Scientific, Virgo collaboration (1941 authors); Abreu, P.; Andringa, S.; Assis, P.; Blanco, A.; Cazon, L.The Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo observatories recently discovered gravitational waves from a binary neutron star inspiral. A short gamma-ray burst (GRB) that followed the merger of this binary was also recorded by the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (Fermi-GBM), and the Anti-Coincidence Shield for the Spectrometer for the International Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory (INTEGRAL), indicating particle acceler...
