Interstitial lung disease in Sjögren’s disease
Duarte, Ana Catarina; Matias, Susana; Bargado, Carolina; Bandeira, Matilde; Romão, Vasco C.; Marques Gomes, Carlos; Bernardes, MiguelIntroduction: Apart from exocrine glands involvement with sicca symptoms, several extra-glandular manifestations can occur in Sjögren’s disease (SjD) such as pulmonary manifestations. Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is the most common lung manifestation in SjD. We aim to evaluate the presence of ILD in a national cohort of patients with SjD, identify variables associated with its development and progression, as...
Nursing interventions in parental education in the diagnosis of oncological dis...
Vieira, Ana Rita; Marques , Goreti; Silva , SofiaIntroduction: The diagnosis of an oncological disease in children is an overwhelming moment for the whole family, especially the parents, and implies the acquisition of a set of knowledge and skills, making nursing intervention in parental education essential. Objective: To map the available scientific evidence on nursing interventions applied to parental education in the context of the diagnosis of cancer in c...
Communication in the age of disinformation: The untruth of the day
Vieira, Ana RitaLies and disinformation are ancient phenomena that have permeated human history. Over the years, the rise of the digital world has drastically accelerated the spread of these concepts, making it almost imperceptible to distinguish between truth and lies.This evolution, despite its advantages, has also awakened a dark side where the increased spread of disinformation is evident. In this scenario, the manipulatio...
Mitochondrial genomes of the European sardine (Sardina pilchardus) reveal Plioc...
Vieira, Ana Rita; Sousa, Filipe; Bilro, João; Viegas, Mariana Bray; Svanbäck, Richard; Gordo, Leonel S.; Paulo, Octávio S.The development of management strategies for the promotion of sustainable fisheries relies on a deep knowledge of ecological and evolutionary processes driving the diversification and genetic variation of marine organisms. Sustainability strategies are especially relevant for marine species such as the European sardine (Sardina pilchardus), a small pelagic fish with high ecological and socioeconomic importance,...
Increasing biological knowledge for better management of by-catch species: Age,...
Sequeira, Vera; Sousa, Inês; Neves, Ana; Vieira, Ana Rita; Silva, Elisabete; Silva, Frederica; Duarte, Ana Marta; Mendes, Susana; Ganhão, RuiGurnards are a valuable by-catch of mixed demersal fisheries and are commercially important in European waters, but they are often discarded, reported under “mixed gurnards” and with incomplete biological information by species. In the present work, a total of 558 piper gurnard specimens of between 10.9 and 44.4 cm (1 to 11 years) and 425 red gurnard specimens of between 10.2 and 42.1 cm (0 to 9 years) from the...
Annual variations in the mineral element content of five fish species from the ...
Pinto, Filipa R.; Duarte, Ana M.; Silva, Frederica; Barroso, Sonia; Mendes, Susana; Pinto, Edgar; Almeida, Agostinho; Sequeira, Vera; Vieira, Ana RitaThe most consumed fish species in Portugal do not correspond to the most caught fish species on the Portuguese coast. From the point of view of ocean sustainability and economics, it is important to study unexploited or underexploited fish species that have the potential to be introduced into the food market. This potential can be reflected by their nutritional value, where mineral elements are often overlooked...
Reproduction of the Blue Jack Mackerel, Trachurus picturatus, in Western Portug...
Neves, Ana; Sequeira, Vera; Vieira, Ana Rita; Silva, Elisabete; Silva, Frederica; Duarte, Ana Marta; Mendes, Susana; Ganhão, Rui; Assis, CarlosBlue jack mackerel, Trachurus picturatus, is the fifth most landed fish species in mainland Portugal, but information on its reproductive biology is scarce. From September 2018 to August 2019, 626 specimens were collected from commercial vessels to clarify the reproductive strategy of the T. picturatus population off the west coast of Portugal. The proportion and length range of males and females were similar. ...
Seasonal study of the nutritional composition of unexploited and low commercial...
Duarte, Ana M.; Silva, Frederica; Mendes, Susana; Pinto, Filipa R.; Barroso, Sonia; Silva, Elisabete; Neves, Ana; Sequeira, VeraTarget species diversification is essential for fisheries sustainability and fish market revitalization. Fish discards are a widely recognized problem resulting from fisheries worldwide, and are of major concern for all sector players, from administrations, to fishermen, and scientists. However, non-target species are seldom studied, and information on nutritional profiles and seasonal changes in nutritional pr...
Modelling fish growth with imperfect data: The case of Trachurus picturatus
Neves, Ana; Vieira, Ana Rita; Sequeira, Vera; Silva, Elisabete; Silva, Frederica; Duarte, Ana Marta; Mendes, Susana; Ganhão, Rui; Assis, CarlosGrowth modelling is essential to inform fisheries management but is often hampered by sampling biases and imperfect data. Additional methods such as interpolating data through backcalculation may be used to account for sampling bias but are often complex and time-consuming. Here, we present an approach to improve plausibility in growth estimates when small individuals are under-sampled, based on Bayesian fittin...
