Clinical, Economic, and Humanistic Impact of Short-Bowel Syndrome/Chronic Intes...
Silva, R; Guerra, P; Rocha, A; Correia, M; Ferreira, R; Fonseca, J; Lima, E; Oliveira, A; Vargas Gomes, M; Ramos, D; Andreozzi, V; Santos, MDIntroduction: This study aimed to assess the clinical, economic, and humanistic impact of short-bowel syndrome/chronic intestinal failure (SBS/CIF) in Portugal. Methods: This is a retrospective multicenter cohort chart review study, with a cross-sectional component for quality-of-life (QoL) evaluation. Inclusion criteria comprised patients with SBS/CIF, aged ≥1 year, with stable parenteral nutrition (PN). Data ...
Maternal child-feeding practices and dietary inadequacy of 4-year-old children
Durao, C; Andreozzi, V; Oliveira, A; Moreira, Pedro; Guerra, A; Barros, H; Lopes, CThis study aimed to evaluate the association between maternal perceived responsibility and child-feeding practices and dietary inadequacy of 4-year-old children. We studied 4122 mothers and children enrolled in the population-based birth cohort - Generation XXI (Porto, Portugal). Mothers self-completed the Child Feeding Questionnaire and a scale on covert and overt control, and answered to a food frequency ques...
Hospital Resource Utilization and Treatment Cost of Skeletal-Related Events in ...
Félix, J; Andreozzi, V; Soares, M; Borrego, P; Gervásio, H; Moreira, A; Costa, L; Marcelo, F; Peralta, F; Furtado, I; Pina, F; Albuquerque, C; Santos, ABACKGROUND: Skeletal-related events (SREs) occur frequently in patients with bone metastases as a result of breast (BC) and prostate (PC) cancers. They increase both morbidity and mortality and lead to extensive health-care resource utilization. METHODS: Health care resource utilization by BC/PC patients with at least one SRE during the preceding 12 months was assessed through retrospective chart review. SRE-tr...
Prognostic Value of a New Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing Parameter in Chronic...
Toste, A; Soares, R; Feliciano, J; Andreozzi, V; Silva, S; Abreu, A; Ramos, R; Santos, N; Ferreira, ML; Cruz Ferreira, RINTRODUCTION: A growing body of evidence shows the prognostic value of oxygen uptake efficiency slope (OUES), a cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) parameter derived from the logarithmic relationship between O(2) consumption (VO(2)) and minute ventilation (VE) in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the prognostic value of a new CPET parameter - peak oxygen uptake efficiency (POUE)...
Valor Prognóstico da Normalização da Resposta Ventilatória ao Exercício para o ...
Toste, A; Soares, RM; Feliciano, J; Andreozzi, V; Silva, S; Alves, S; Ferreira, ML; Abreu, A; Cruz Ferreira, RCardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is an objective method for assessment of functional capacity and for prognostic stratification of patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). In this study, we analyzed the prognostic value of a recently described CPET-derived parameter, the minute ventilation to carbon dioxide production slope normalized for peak oxygen consumption (VE/VCO2 slope/pVO2). METHODS: We prospe...
Resultados da Angioplastia Primária num Centro de Referência. Evolução Intra-Ho...
Ramos, R; Patrício, L; Bernardes, L; Cacela, D; Sousa, L; Fiarresga, A; Gonçalves, JM; Toste, A; Lousinha, A; Oliveira, JA; Ferreira, ML; Andreozzi, VINTRODUCTION: Primary angioplasty is accepted as the preferred treatment for acute myocardial infarction in the first 12 hours. However, outcomes depend to a large extent on the volume of activity and experience of the center. Continuous monitoring of methods and results obtained is therefore crucial to quality control. OBJECTIVE: To describe the demographic, clinical and angiographic characteristics as well as...
Serial Changes in Oxidized Low-Density Lipoprotein Associated with Culprit Vess...
Napoleão, P; Selas, M; Toste, A; Turkman, A; Andreozzi, V; Viegas-Crespo, AM; Pinheiro, T; Cruz Ferreira, RThe aim of the present study was to investigate variations in oxidized LDL (oxLDL) at the onset of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and over the recovery period, exploring their relationship with coronary disease severity. A follow-up of 50 AMI patients was evaluated against 25 healthy volunteers (reference group). The AMI patients were evaluated at three time points: at admission before the administration of ...
