Age effects on EEG correlates of the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test
Dias, NS; Ferreira, D; Reis, J; Jacinto, LR; Fernandes, L; Pinho, F; Festa, J; Pereira, M; Afonso, N; Santos, NC; Cerqueira, JJ; Sousa, NBody and brain undergo several changes with aging. One of the domains in which these changes are more remarkable relates with cognitive performance. In the present work, electroencephalogram (EEG) markers (power spectral density and spectral coherence) of age-related cognitive decline were sought whilst the subjects performed the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST). Considering the expected age-related cognitive...
Transplant glomerulopathy: clinico-pathologic features
Silva, C; Cotovio, P; Marques, M; Afonso, N; Sancho, MR; Carvalho, F; Trindade, H; Carreira, A; Campos, M; Nolasco, FTransplant glomerulopathy is a sign of chronic kidney allograft damage. It has a distinct morphology and is associated with poor allograft survival. We aimed to assess the prevalence and clinic-pathologic features of transplant glomerulopathy, as well as determine the functional and histological implications of its severity. We performed a single-centre retrospective observational study during an eight-year per...

Prognostic Factors in Adult Patients with Idiopathic IgA Nephropathy
Silva, C; Afonso, N; Cotovio, P; Marques, M; Carvalho, F; Carreira, AIntroduction. IgA nephropathy is the dominant primary glomerular disease found throughout the majority of the world’s developed countries. Accurately identifying patients who are at risk of progressive disease is challenging. We aimed to characterise clinical and histological features that predict poor prognosis in adults. Patients and Methods. We performed a single-centre retrospective observational study of b...
