Users' satisfaction evaluation based on ISO standards for tourism and travel mo...
Almeida, C.; Alturas, B.This study is based on the results of a survey applied to a sample of 201 users which gave them an opportunity to identify points of improvement that will be used in a proposal for a new application. In addition, it aimed to obtain data that allows analysis metrics to be applied to ISO (International Standard Organization) standards and attempts to understand why individuals use these applications, based on the...
O direito à participação das crianças na Abordagem Reggio Emilia: uma perspetiv...
Ribeiro, Cristiana; Almeida, C.; Castro, A.Este artigo é fruto de uma reflexão conjunta sobre a abordagem Reggio Emilia, que nasce de uma visita e formação presencial no berço desta metodologia inspiradora. As palavras respeito, compromisso, sensibilidade e participação ainda ecoam nas nossas vivências pedagógicas. Marca- nos o compromisso inabalável de todos os envolvidos para com os direitos das crianças, evidenciado pela participação ativa que exerce...
Modelo in vitro de polarização de macrófagos modelado pelo shift hormonal em di...
Almeida, C.; Rocha, A. C.; Soares, R.; Baylina, Pilar; Costa, R.; Alves, M. G.; Fernandes, R.; BAYLINA MACHADO, PILARExistem diferentes estímulos que polarizam macrófagos in vitro, estando descritos 2 principais fenótipos: M1 e M2. Entre esses estímulos, o efeito da testosterona e do estradiol neste processo ainda não é totalmente compreendido. Sabe-se que em ambiente diabético existe uma redução da concentração de testosterona e um aumento progressivo de estradiol. As citocinas inflamatórias são respostas produzidas após dif...
Longitudinal analysis of select bacterial species composition among women with ...
George, S.; Dong, C.; Aaron, K.; Sherman, A.; Van Gerwen, O.; Tamhane, A.; Taylor, C.; Sousa, Lúcia Filipa Guimarães Vieira; Almeida, C.; Cerca, NunoObjective Key BV-associated bacteria that may be important in incident BV (iBV) pathogenesis are Gardnerella species and Prevotella bivia. We quantified the amount of these bacterial species in clue cell biofilms in longitudinal vaginal specimens from iBV cases and controls using peptide nucleic acid fluorescence in situ hybridization (PNA-FISH). Study Design Women with optimal vaginal microbiota self-collected...

Silva, E.; Viegas, D.; Martins, A.; Almeida, J.; Almeida, C.; Neves, B.; Madureira, P.; Wheeler, A. J.; Salavasidis, G.; Phillips, A.; Schaap, A.By creating a dependable, transparent, and cost-effective system for forecasting and ongoing environmental impact monitoring of exploration and exploitation activities in the deep sea, TRIDENT seeks to contribute to the sustainable exploitation of seabed mineral resources. In order to operate autonomously in remote locations under harsh conditions and send real-time data to authorities in charge of granting lic...
High performance of ionic-liquid-based materials to remove insecticides
Francisco, R.; Almeida, C.; Sousa, Ana Catarina A.; Neves, M.C.; Freire, M.G.Neonicotinoids are systemic insecticides commonly used for pest control in agriculture and veterinary applications. Due to their widespread use, neonicotinoid insecticides (neonics) are found in different environmental compartments, including water, soils, and biota, in which their high toxicity towards non-target organisms is a matter of great concern. Given their widespread use and high toxicity, the developm...
CMS physics technical design report: Addendum on high density QCD with heavy ions
d'Enterria, D.; Ballintijn, M.; Bedjidian, M.; Hofman, D.; Kodolova, O.; Loizides, C.; Lokthin, I. P.; Lourenço, C.; Mironov, C.; Petrushanko, S. V.Made available in DSpace on 2022-04-28T20:22:10Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2007-11-01; This report presents the capabilities of the CMS experiment to explore the rich heavy-ion physics programme offered by the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The collisions of lead nuclei at energies , will probe quark and gluon matter at unprecedented values of energy density. The prime goal of this res...
We got a taste for protest! leadership transition and political opportunities f...
Almeida, C.; Sá, A. L.; Faria, P.The protest boom in the African continent since 2011 has spanned different political regimes, including resilient authoritarian regimes. In this chapter we contribute to the study of protests in authoritarian states by exploring the political opportunities for protest arising from leadership change in Angola. We argue that the unprecedented transition of leadership at the top of the Angolan state in 2017 change...
Supported Ionic Liquids materials to remove insecticides
Francisco, R.; Almeida, C.; Sousa, A. C. A.; Neves, M.C.; Freire, M. G.Neonicotinoids insecticides are generally used to control pests in agriculture and for veterinary applications.1,2 Due to their extensive use, these compounds can be found in various environmental compartments, such as water, soils, and biota, which can be a problem of concern due to their toxicity against non-target organisms.2 Given this, it is of utmost priority to develop innovative and effective strategies...
