Methods: Beyond pulmonary and respiratory muscle functions...
Measurement of respiratory function with a mobile application: comparison with ...
Pinheiro, Catarina; Viana, Paulo; Amaral, Rita; Jacinto, TiagoMobile apps can improve home measurements of pulmonary function via built-in phone sensors, (e.g. microphone). This could promote greater access to health interventions for patients with respiratory diseases, reducing the need of face-to-face visits..
Identification (GC and GC-MS) of unsaturated acetates in Elasmopalpus lignosell...
Jham, Gulab N.; Silva, Alexsandro A. da; Lima, Eraldo R.; Viana, PauloTwo insect colonies of Elasmopalpus lignosellus were reared in our laboratory, the first being initiated from pupae obtained from a cornfield in the region of Sete Lagoas, Minas Gerais and the second from a cornfield in the region of Goiânia, Goiás. From the two colonies, two extracts were prepared from the pheromone glands of virgin E. lignosellus females. The extract obtained from the first colony was designa...

Efeito do envelhecimento cronológico na função pulmonar. Comparação da função r...
Ruivo, Susana; Viana, Paulo; Martins, Cristiana; Baeta, CristinaO sistema respiratório sofre alterações inerentes ao envelhecimento e o conhecimento dessas modificações contribui para a detecção e prevenção de disfunções respiratórias em idosos. O objectivo deste estudo foi comparar o padrão respiratório entre adultos e idosos saudáveis, não fumadores, confrontando os valores espirométricos e de expansibilidade torácica, de forma a confirmar a acção do envelhecimento na fun...
Impact of acute exercise intensity on plasma concentrations of insulin, growth ...
Ribeiro, Laura; Calhau, Conceição; Pinheiro-Silva, S; Santos, Alejandro; Alçada, Manuel; Guimarães, João; Pina, Alexandra; Maia, Bruno; Pereira, FábioObesity is increasing all over the world, its morbidity justifying a serious effort to improve the situation. Diet and physical exercise constitute major measures to fight obesity. We aimed to investigate the effect of acute exercise intensity over plasma insulin, growth hormone and somatostatin responses. Plasma levels of insulin, growth hormone, somatostatin and glucose were measured at baseline, after 15 min...
