Aprendizagem do nó de oito em crianças dos 6 aos 9 anos de idade
Torres, D.; Rosa, Paulo; Sovela, A.; Escobar, C.; Inácio, G.; Rodrigues, H.; Silva, I.; Serrão-Arrais, Ana; Catela, DavidCrianças com 10 anos já conseguem realizar um nó tão complexo e essencial em várias atividades como o de 8 simples. Fomos verificar se crianças com menos de 10 anos conseguiam executar este nó. Quarenta e uma crianças entre os 6 e os 9 anos (6,98±0,91) (meninas=24- 7,0±0,89 anos; meninos= 6,94±0,97), exploraram a sua execução (A) através de vídeo na perspetiva própria, com possibilidade de visualizações interca...
Risk-benefit assessment of cereal-based foods: a case study under RiskBenefit4E...
Martins, Carla; Boué, Géraldine; Alvito, Paula; Brazão, Roberto; Carmona, Paulo; Carvalho, C.; Correia, D.; Fernandes, Paulo; Lopes, C.Cereal-based foods, including breakfast cereals (BC) and infant cereals (IC), are among the first solid foods introduced in infants’ diets. BC and IC are sources of nutrients that have beneficial effects on health. However, they can also be a source of potentially harmful chemical or microbiological contaminants, or of nutrients that at high consumption levels may lead to adverse health effects. Young children ...
One stent versus two stents for distal LM PCI: insights from the experience of ...
Santos, R.; Menezes, Miguel Nobre; Carrilho-Ferreira, Pedro; Calhaz-Jorge, Carlos; Francisco, A. R.; Oliveira, Eduardo Infante de; Duarte, J.Distal left main (LM) PCIremains a challenge. One of the most debated issues is whether to use a single vs 2 stent provisional strategy. While most studies and guidelines favour a single stent strategy, the recent DK-CRUSH V trial has shown better results with a 2 stent strategy.
Exposure assessment of Portuguese population to multiple mycotoxins: the human ...
Martins, Carla; Vidal, A.; De Boevre, M.; De Saeger, S.; Nunes, C.; Torres, D.; Goios, A.; Lopes, C.; Assunção, R; Alvito, P.Mycotoxins constitute a relevant group of food contaminants with several associated health outcomes such as estrogenic, immunotoxic, nephrotoxic and teratogenic effects. Although scarce data are available in Portugal, human biomonitoring studies have been globally developed to assess the exposure to mycotoxins at individual level. In order to overcome this lack of data, the present study concerned the analysis ...
Mycotoxins in adult population from Portugal: Overall results and determinants ...
Vidal, Arnau; De Saeger, Sarah; Sarah, De Saeger; Nunes, Carla; Torres, D.; Goios, A.; Lopes, Carla; Assunção, Ricardo; Alvito, Paula; De Boevre, MartheHuman biomonitoring (HBM) is recognized as an important tool to assess the Human exposure to chemicals, contributing to describe trends and patterns of exposure over time and to identify population groups that could be under risk. Mycotoxins, fungi secondary metabolites that produce toxic effects in humans, are important compounds found in foods usually consumed worldwide in a daily basis. In Portugal, scarce d...
Nut consumption in Portugal: the balance between the risks and the benefits reg...
Assunção, Ricardo; Jakobsen, Lea; Alvito, Paula; Carmona, P.; Carvalho, C.; Lopes, C.; Martins, C.; Monteiro, Sarogini; Nabais, P.; Correia, D.Nuts are rich sources of cis-unsaturated fatty acids, fibre, vitamins, minerals, and a number of bioactive substances and the regular consumption of nuts are being associated with a reduction in all-cause mortality, particularly cardiovascular disease (CVD). At the same time, the occurrence of mycotoxins in nuts, including the most potent carcinogenic aflatoxins (AFTs), has been reported by several authors worl...
Exposure of Portuguese population to mycoestrogens: a public health concern?
Martins, Carla; Vidal, Arnau; De Saeger, Sarah; Nunes, Carla; Torres, D.; Goios, A.; Lopes, C.; Assunção, Ricardo; Alvito, Paula; De Boevre, M.Alternariol (AOH) and zearalenone (ZEN) are mycotoxins that occur widely in food commodities, with particular incidence in cereals [1,2]. Both mycotoxins present estrogenic effects, therefore, it is crucial to assess the human exposure and the associated risk [2,3]. To date, there is a lack of human studies to assess exposure to ZEN and AOH through biomarkers analysis in Portugal. In the scope of the National F...

Risk-benefit assessment of foods: lessons learned from a capacity building expe...
Boué, Géraldine; Alvito, Paula; Brazão, Roberto; Carmona, P.; Fernandes, Paulo; Martins, C.; Membré, Jeanne Marie; Monteiro, Sarogini; Nabais, P.Introduction: Risk-benefit assessment of foods (RBA) has emerged recently to estimate the overall impact of food, food ingredients and diets on human health. Significant methodological progress has been made and its value is now recognized to support the decision-making process in public health to prevent food-associated diseases and promote wellbeing in populations. Purpose: At this time, few research groups h...
