Prevalence and clinical characteristics of late Onset Axial Spondyloarthritis: ...

Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) typically starts before the fourth decade oflife. Consistent with that, the Assessment of SpondyloArthritis international Society (ASAS)classification criteria for axSpA should be applied only in patients with chronic back pain startingbefore 45 years of age. It has, however, been suggested that axSpA can sometimes start later in lifewith a distinctive phenotype, the so-called ‘l...

Milk related excipients in medications: concerns with cow’s milk protein allergy

Validation of app and phone versions of the Control of Allergic Rhinitis and As...

Assessment of asthma control at every opportunity is recommended. Control of Allergic Rhinitis and Asthma Test (CARAT) is a patient reported outcome measure commonly used to assess asthma control in clinical practice.It includes ten questions answered in a 4 point Like rt scale that address upper and lower airway symptoms, sleep interference, limitation of activities , and the need to increase medication over a...

Patient-physician discordance in assessment of adherence to inhaled controller ...

Objective: We aimed to compare patient's and physician's ratings of inhaled medication adherence and to identify predictors of patient-physician discordance. Design: Baseline data from two prospective multicentre observational studies. Setting: 29 allergy, pulmonology and paediatric secondary care outpatient clinics in Portugal. Participants: 395 patients (≥13 years old) with persistent asthma. Measures: Data o...

Advances in materials science and engineering assessment of gamma radiation haz...

Geologic materials are a potential source of external gamma radiation in buildings due to the presence of radioisotopes (K-40 and isotopes from U and Th decay families). The contents of these radioisotopes can be evaluated by laboratory analyses that require the extraction of samples, with associated financial and time constraints, and it is also difficult to perform on materials already applied in existing str...

Corrosion behavior of WC-Co coatings deposited by cold gas spray onto AA 7075-T6

Made available in DSpace on 2018-12-11T17:36:20Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2018-01-01; This work reports a morphological, mechanical, and corrosion resistance characterization of WC-12Co and WC-25Co coatings deposited by cold gas spray (CGS) onto AA 7075-T6 alloy. Cross-sectional images of the coatings revealed dense structures with low porosities. The coating thicknesses were 65 μm for W...

Evaluation of nasal patency in children: Data of737 consecutive rhinomanometry ...

Rhinomanometry is a simple and useful method for objective evaluation of nasal airway patency. However, there is a lack of published studies in pediatric patients. We aimed to evaluate nasal patency assessed by rhinomanometry and its variation after administration of an intranasal vasoconstrictor in children.

Physical activity during pregnancy and its effects on fetal parameters in the s...

The physical activity (PA) during pregnancy still remains controversial due to the risk and protective effects on the fetal parameters (cephalic perimeter, abdominal perimeter, femur length and fetal weight). The American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) recommends that pregnant women do, at least, 150 weekly minutes of moderate PA during a week (WK). This study aimed to (1) verify the relation between the acc...
