The Person with Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) presents changes in several determinants of health-related quality of life, including mobility, fatigue, pain and depression. The regular application of adjusted rehabilitation programs suggest improvements in the functionality and quality of life of the Patients.Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of rehabilitation programs in Persons with Guillain-Barré Syndr...
Currently, given the technological evolution, data and information are increasingly valuable in the most diverse areas for the most various purposes. Although the information and knowledge discovered by the exploration and use of data can be very valuable in many applications, people have been increasingly concerned about the other side, that is, the privacy threats that these processes bring. The system Privas...
The technology of nowadays allows to easily extract, store, process and use information about individuals and organizations. The increase of the amount of data collected and its value to our society was, at first, a great advance that could be used to optimize processes, find solutions and support decisions but also brought new problems related with lack of privacy and malicious attacks to confidential informat...
Purpose: Managing credit risk is crucial for a company’s solvency. Most of the company’s receivables are in credit. Prompt payments are almost insignificant, and the delay of turnover payments has become a tendency, especially with the 2007/2008 financial crisis. Therefore, companies must know how to set individual credit to customers, how to protect from non-payments, how to act timely and how to minimize inde...

Background Actinobacillus succinogenes is a promising bacterial catalyst for the bioproduction of succinic acid from low-cost raw materials. In this work, a genome-scale metabolic model was reconstructed and used to assess the metabolic capabilities of this microorganism under producing conditions. Results The model, iBP722, was reconstructed based on the functional reannotation of the complete genome sequence ...
Actinobacillus succinogenes, a gram-negative bacterium, is one the most promising natural producers of succinate. This chemical has been well established as a bio-based chemical platform to produce bulk chemicals (e.g. 1,4-butanediol) and other biomaterials, but the costs associated with the bioproduction of succinate are still discouraging. One of the reasons is that succinate is often produced together with o...
