Avaliação e melhoria da qualidade da prescrição antibiótica em cistites agudas ...
Ortiz, Joana; Vinagre, Leonardo; Bispo, Renato; Mateus da Costa, Mar; Neto, Madalena; Palma, Luís Palma; Vital Pinheiro, Joana; Gonçalves, JoanaIntrodução: As infeções do trato urinário são uma das principais causas de prescrição de antibióticos nos cuidados de saúde primários. Uma auditoria à qualidade da prescrição de antibióticos nas cistites agudas não complicadas a um agrupamento de centros de saúde em Lisboa mostrou uma conformidade global de 35,81%. Perante este resultado elaborou-se um trabalho de melhoria de qualidade. Objetivo: Melhorar a qua...
Closing the temporal blind spot: Six additional electrodes increase patient-lev...
Batista, Carla; Soares, Joana Isabel; Coelho, Paulo; Ferreira, Simão; Rosenzweig, Ivana; Borges, Daniel Filipe; Borges, Daniel Filipe; Ferreira, SimãoTo quantify the additional detection yield of the 25-channel electrodearray recommended by the International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology(IFCN), which includes six inferior-temporal electrodes beyond the conventional 10–20 International System (IS) in identifying interictal epileptiform discharges(IEDs) and focal slow activity (SA). We analyzed 258 consecutive adult EEGs (routine or sleep-deprived; me...
Artificial Intelligence-Driven User Interaction with Smart Homes: Architecture ...
Lemos, João; Ramos, João; Gomes, Mário; Coelho, PauloThe evolution of Smart Grids enabled the deployment of intelligent and decentralized energy management solutions at the residential level. This work presents a comprehensive Smart Home architecture that integrates real-time energy monitoring, appliance-level consumption analysis, and environmental data acquisition using smart metering technologies and distributed IoT sensors. All collected data are structured i...
Response to: Does reliability benefit from superior visualization of epileptifo...
Batista, Carla; Soares, Joana Isabel; Coelho, Paulo; Ferreira, Simão; Rosenzweig, Ivana; Borges, Daniel Filipe; Borges, Daniel Filipe; Ferreira, SimãoWe thank Dr. Kleine for his thoughtful letter regarding our study and for highlighting both the anatomical rationale and the recognized clinical relevance of inferior-temporal electrodes. We welcome the opportunity to clarify specific numerical points and to provide the inter-reviewer agreement data he requested. Our study was intentionally designed as a prospective, blinded, within-subject technical validation...
A multidisciplinary engineering-based approach for tunnelling strengthening wit...
Barros, Joaquim; Costelha, Hugo; Bento, David; Brites, Nelson; Luís, Rui; Patrício, Hugo; Cunha, Vítor M.C.F.; Bento, Luís; Miranda, TiagoThis paper describes the relevant research activities that are being carried out on the development of a novel shotcrete technology capable of applying, autonomously and in real time, fibre reinforced shotcrete (FRS) with tailored properties regarding the optimum structural strengthening of railway tunnels (RT). This technique allows to apply fibre reinforced concrete (FRC) of strain softening (SSFRC) and strai...
Pachydysostosis of the Fibula in a Case of Familial Adenomatous Polyposis.
Oliveira, Daniela; Maia, Sofia; Balacó, Inês; Coelho, Paulo; Almeida, Susana; Venâncio, Margarida; Saraiva, Jorge; Nishimura, Gen; Sousa, Sérgio BBackground: Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) is a colorectal cancer (CRC) predisposition syndrome caused by germline APC mutations and characterised by an increased risk of CRC and colonic polyps and, in certain forms, of specific prominent extraintestinal manifestations, namely osteomas, soft tissue tumours and dental anomalies. Pachydysostosis of the fibula is a rare clinical entity defined by unilateral ...

Wastewater Electrolysis for Hydrogen Production
Cartaxo, Marco; Fernandes, José; Gomes, Mário; Pinho, Henrique J. O.; Nunes, Valentim; Coelho, PauloDue to its highest gravimetric energy density, H2 has been regarded as the preferred clean-energy carrier, with potentially environmentally-friendly production through the solar-assisted WS. Since human activities generate enormous amounts of WW, H2 production from this new resource has gained attention as an emergent technology. This paper addresses the most relevant and current aspects of H2 production from W...
Algorithms for automated diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases based on ECG data...
Pinto, Rui João; Silva, Pedro Miguel; Duarte, Rui P.; Pimenta, Luís; Gouveia, António Jorge; Gonçalves, N.J.A.P.; Coelho, Paulo; Zdravevski, EftimThe prevalence of cardiovascular diseases is increasing around the world. However, the technology is evolving and can be monitored with low-cost sensors anywhere at any time. This subject is being researched, and different methods can automatically identify these diseases, helping patients and healthcare professionals with the treatments. This paper presents a systematic review of disease identification, classi...
Creative dance associated with traditional Portuguese singing as a strategy for...
Coelho, Paulo; Marmeleira, José; Cruz-Ferreira, Ana; Laranjo, Luis; Pereira, Catarina; Bravo, JorgeBackground: Multimodal forms of exercise can influence several physical and mental factors important for successful aging. In the present study, we introduce a new type of multimodal intervention, combining movement (creative dance) with traditional singing. This study aims to compare physical fitness, functional physical independence, depressive symptoms, general cognitive status, and daytime sleepiness among ...
