May the intentional candidate win: The effect of global performance information...
Braga, J.; Jacinto, S.In organizational contexts, managers often have to judge and predict others' performance. Previous research has consistently shown that when predicting someone's performance, people expect that a local sequence of successful outcomes will continue—the hot-hand. The present work proposes that hot-hand predictions occur when local streaks are dispositionally attributed to the agents' intentionality and explores h...
Ocular Changes During Pregnancy
Marcos-Figueiredo, P.; Marcos-Figueiredo, A.; Menéres, P.; Braga, J.Pregnancy is needed for the perpetuation of the human species, and it leads to physiological adaptations of the various maternal organs and systems. The eye, although a closed space, also undergoes some modifications, most of which are relatively innocuous, but they may occasionally become pathological. For women, pregnancy is a susceptibility period; however, for many obstetricians, their knowledge of the ocul...
Modified Pereira Suture as an Effective Option to Treat Postpartum Hemorrhage d...
Moleiro, M.; Guedes-Martins, L.; Mendes, A.; Marques, C.; Braga, J.Nowadays, postpartum hemorrhage is the major cause of maternal mortality and morbidity worldwide. Uterine atony is its main cause; thus, prophylactic measures, as well as medical and surgical fast approaches, have been developed to manage it. The uterine compression sutures are a possible treatment that preserves the uterus and, consequently, the fertility potential. Bearing that in mind, we report two cases of...

Cardiotoxicity in haematological diseases : are the tyrosine kinase inhibitors ...
Francisco, A. R. Gaspar Lopes; Alves, D.; Gonçalves, I. S.; Menezes, M. N.; Silva, G. Lima da; Guimarães, T.; David, C.; Braga, J.; Guerra, L.Introduction: Chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity is a growing concern. The true cardiotoxic impact of new drugs such as tyrosine kinase inhibitors is unknown, especially the ones used for chronic myeloid leukaemia. We aim to evaluate nilotinib and imatinib induced cardiotoxicity. Methods: Single-center prospective study of consecutive patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia treated with tyrosine kinase inhibit...

Pielonefrite aguda na gravidez complicada por síndrome de dificuldade respirató...
Castro, D.; Gonçalves, J.; Braga, J.O síndrome de dificuldade respiratória aguda (SDRA) caracteriza-se por lesão pulmonar aguda e acarreta hipoxemia, infiltrados pulmonares intersticiais difusos e diminuição da compliance pulmonar. É um evento raro e na gravidez estima-se que ocorram 16-17 casos por 100.000 gravidezes. Dentro dos factores etiológicos do SDRA destacam-se: os não relacionados com a gestação (pneumonia bacteriana, pneumonite química...
Causas biológicas de depressão em doentes com Lúpus Eritematoso Sistémico: um e...
Braga, J.; Campar, A.A elevada prevalência de depressão em doentes com lúpus eritematoso sistémico (LES) pode resultar tanto do impacto psicossocial desta doença crónica como de lesão do sistema nervoso central (SNC). Recentemente, a base biológica de depressão no LES tem vindo a ser confirmada, sob influência de vários factores, que serão revistos neste artigo. A evidência publicada aponta para a participação de alterações bioquím...
Successful pregnancy in a severely hypoxemic patient with pulmonary alveolar pr...
Belchior, I.; Cerdeira, A.; Santos, M.; Braga, J.; Aragâo, I.; Martins, A.Abstract Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a rare disorder characterized by abnormal accumulation of a lipoproteinaceous material in the alveoli, which may lead to respiratory failure and has an associated high risk for infections. The mainstay treatment for PAP is whole lung lavage. A pregnant woman, previously diagnosed with primary PAP, the most common form of PAP, was admitted with dyspnea and worseni...
