Prostate Multiparametric-MRI (mp-MRI) Accuracy for Localization of Clinically S...
Caceiro, Rui; Quaresma, Vasco; Curvo Semedo, Luis; Faria, Carlos; Marconi, Lorenzo; Figueiredo, ArnaldoIntroduction: Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) has been increasingly used to guide prostate cancer management. Most studies are focusing on the detection of prostate cancer rather than localization of tumors within the gland, which is fundamental to plan treatment. We aimed to evaluate mpMRI for accurate localization of tumor nodules and examining the predictors of detection. Methods: Retrospe...
Progress in Nanofluid Technology: From Conventional to Green Nanofluids for Bio...
Cardoso, Beatriz D.; Souza, Andrews; Nobrega, Glauco; Afonso, Inês Santos; Neves, Lucas Boniatti; Faria, Carlos; Ribeiro, J.E.; Lima, Rui A.Nanofluids (NFs), consisting of nanoparticles (NPs) suspended in base fluids, have attracted growing interest due to their superior physicochemical properties and multifunctional potential. In this review, conventional and green NF technology aspects, including synthesis routes, formulation, and applications, are discussed. Conventional NFs, involving NPs synthesized using physical and chemical approaches, have...
Palliative care patient complexity criteria: scoping review
Salgueiro, Diana; Camões, Ana; Serralheiro, Ana; Faria, Carlos; Fernandes, OlgaBackground: the multifaceted nature of palliative care requires continuous monitoring by a specialised team to ensure appropriate referral. Objective: to map existing evidence on the concept of complexity in palliative care and establish a consensus on classification processes for patients with palliative care needs. Methodology: a scoping review was conducted following the Joanna Briggs Institute methodology, ...
Angiossarcoma Hepático: Caso Clínico
Alves, Telma; Rodrigues, Ricardo; Terra, Carolina; Faria, Carlos; Paixão, Joana; Silva, FátimaO angiossarcoma hepático é um tumor vascular raro dentro do grupo das neoplasias malignas do fígado, tendo uma baixa prevalência. Não apresenta sinais/sintomas ou marcadores tumorais específicos. É uma patologia altamente agressiva, com uma taxa de mortalidade elevada. Os autores descrevem o caso de um doente do sexo masculino, 69 anos, com perda ponderal significativa, dor abdominal no quadrante superior direi...

Nas primeira...
A tree-based approach to forecast the total nitrogen in wastewater treatment pl...
Faria, Carlos; Oliveira, Pedro; Fernandes, B.; Aguiar, Francisco; Pereira, M. A.; Novais, PauloWith the increase in the world population, there has been an increase in environmental problems worldwide. One of these problems is the quality of the water, which can cause problems to society’s well-being and the environments surrounding it. Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTPs) emerged to address this problem. It is necessary to pay attention to the different substances present in the waterwaters treated in th...
Human–robot interaction in industrial settings: perception of multiple particip...
Alves, Carla; Cardoso, André; Colim, Ana; Bicho, Estela; Braga, A. C.; Cunha, João; Faria, Carlos; Rocha, Luís A.In environments shared with humans, Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) should be designed with human-aware motion-planning skills. Even when AMRs can effectively avoid humans, only a handful of studies have evaluated the human perception of mobile robots. To establish appropriate non-verbal communication, robot movement should be legible and should consider the human element. In this paper, a study that evaluates ...
Network nodes for ocean data exchange through submarine fiber optic cable repea...
Martins, M. S.; Cruz, Nuno A.; Silva, António; Ferreira, Bruno; Zabel, Fred; Matos, Tiago; Jesus, Sergio; Pinto, André; Pereira, Eduardo; Matos, AníbalAs humanity progresses and globalization advances, humanized environment and associated systems increase in complexity and size. In earth systems, oceans represent an essential element of equalization and normal functioning. Ocean-atmospheric interactions are nowadays believed to be at the heart of all earth vital signs and climatic behaviours, and therefore are essential to accurate monitoring and understandin...
Trajectory tracking for the inspection of deformable objects considering manipu...
Borges, Carlos Alberto Peixoto; Ribeiro, José Miguel Maia; Louro, Luis; Vicente, Paulo Sérgio Cunha; Faria, Carlos; Monteiro, Sérgio; Bicho, EstelaThis work deals with the manipulation of deformable objects for defect inspection purposes. The required inspection movements, obtained from mimicking demonstrated trajectories, are realized with a 7-DoF serial arm and a fixed grasp support. These trajectories can be realized in different zones, as such, we use this freedom, with the various possibilities for the inverse kinematics problem and the elbow redunda...
Physical ergonomic improvement and safe design of an assembly workstation throu...
Colim, Ana; Faria, Carlos; Cunha, João; Oliveira, João; Sousa, Nuno Miguel Alves; Rocha, Luís A.One of the key interesting features of collaborative robotic applications is the potential to lighten the worker workload and potentiate better working conditions. Moreover, developing robotics applications that meets ergonomic criteria is not always a straightforward endeavor. We propose a framework to guide the safe design and conceptualization of ergonomic-driven collaborative robotics workstations. A multi-...
