This study focuses on bimodal meta-volcanic rocks present in the Iberian Massif, in the ´Evora-Aracena Metamorphic Belt of the Ossa-Morena Zone (OMZ), near the boundary with the South Portuguese Zone. New petrological, geochemical (whole-rock and Sr–Nd isotopes) and LA-ICP-MS U–Pb zircon geochronology data are presented to track the magmatic evolution of both felsic and mafic rocks and their respective geodynam...

Fungal infections have emerged as a significant public health concern, especially with the increasing incidence of severe mycoses caused by pathogens such as Aspergillus fumigatus, Candida auris, Candida albicans, and Cryptococcus neoformans. These fungi, listed as critical priorities by the World Health Organization, pose a heightened risk due to rising antifungal resistance and their severe impact on immunoco...
As revisões sistemáticas, meta-análises e análises bibliométricas de literatura são pouco comuns e (re)conhecidas nas ciências sociais. Partindo de exemplos de dois projetos de investigação sociológica, refletimos sobre as potencialida-des de conhecer o campo desta forma mais sistemática e inclu-siva da literatura, capaz de incluir centros e periferias temáticas e metodológicas, e protagonistas e atores secundá...
Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is a global health challenge, prompting widespread use of conventional risk assessment tools (SCORE2 in Europe and the ASCVD Risk calculator in the United States) to guide preventive strategies. Emerging evidence indicates that high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hsTn) may refine risk stratification.
SUMMARY: Geochronological data from the pre-Mesozoic basement of the Lusitanian Basement (West of the Porto-Tomar Fault) was obtained. Results show a predominant Cadomian/Pan-African and Eburnean inheritance/source, placing this sector as a peri-Gondwanan domain. However, two major differences can be seen in the data: samples with a clear absence in Mesoproterozoic ages vs. samples with a clear presence of thes...
ABSTRACT: The Papoa Volcanic Breccia (Peniche, West Portugal) is a Mesozoic pyroclastic deposit that includes numerous igneous and metamorphic xenoliths belonging to the Variscan basement of the Lusitanian Basin, in which this unit outcrops. These rocks correspond mostly to syenogranites and diatexites affected by intense pyrometamorphism and, despite their strong secondary alteration by weathering, they still ...

SUMÁRIO: Dados geoquímicos obtidos em meta-riólitos da região de Viana do Alentejo incluídos na formação Xistos de Moura permitem diferenciar 3 grupos distintos: Grupo I – rico em HREE com assinatura orogénica; Grupo II – também enriquecido em HREE, mas apresentando natureza anorogénica; e Grupo III - anorogénico, mais enriquecido em REE que os anteriores. Tais informações, quando combinadas com dados geocronol...
