Exercise intensity agreement, need satisfaction, and exercise behavior: A sex-m...
Teixeira, D. S.; Andrade, A. J.; Faria, J.; Marques, P.; Bastos, V.; Rodrigues, F.; Sousa, A. M.; Pereira, H. V.Several theoretical frameworks have been used to understand exercise adherence. Basic psychological needs (BPN), grounded on self‐determination theory, have received large attention for this purpose. More recently, the hedonic theory and the assumptions related to the exercise characteristics (e.g., intensity) that can bolster positive affective responses have been revitalized. This study aimed to explore the a...

Airborne fibers: passive sampling and environmental contamination
Lucala, J.; Barbosa, J.; Faria, J.; Prata, J. C.Background: Microplastics are synthetic particles or fibers <5mm [1] released from plastic objects into the environment, contaminating indoor and outdoor air and leading to human exposure with unknown consequences [2]. Only a small number of studies with a high geographical distribution have determined the concentration of airborne microplastics, especially of fibers. Objective: This work aimed at conducting...
Evaluation of the systemic oxidative stress status upon in vivo exposure to tra...
Cardoso, C.; Dinis-Oliveira, R. J.; Leal, S.; Barbosa, J.; Faria, J.Background: Tramadol and tapentadol are synthetic centrally acting analgesic opioids, used in the treatment of moderate to severe pain [1]. Despite their optimized therapeutic and safety profiles, these compounds are associated with adverse effects, namely CNS and respiratory depression, abuse and dependence [2, 3]. Oxidative stress is one of the main toxicity mechanisms triggered by opioids [1, 4, 5]. Objectiv...
The preference for and tolerance of exercise intensity: an exploratory analysis...
Marques, P.; Andrade, A. J.; Evmenenko, A.; Monteiro, D.; Faria, J.; Rodrigues, F.; Cid, Luis; Teixeira, D. S.Health clubs are considered one of the most relevant contexts of exercise. However, they suffer from high dropout rates and struggle to keep exercisers enrolled in the long run. Considering the exercise intensity-affect relation, the main objective of this exploratory study was to test the relation of the discrepancy between the intensity traits and current exercise training intensity, and possible differences ...

Teixeira, D. S.; Ekkekakis, P.; Andrade, A.; Rodrigues, Filipe; Evmenenko, A.; Faria, J.; Marques, P.; Cid, Luis; Monteiro, DiogoThe aim of the present study was to translate and adapt the Preference for and Tolerance of the Intensity of Exercise Questionnaire to Portuguese (PRETIE-Q-PT), and to analyze its psychometric properties (factorial validity with gender invariance analyses, reliability, temporal stability, and construct validity). The sample was composed of 445 Portuguese participants (55.9%women), with a mean age of 29.6 years ...
Finding Out The Neurological Consequences Of Covid-19
Alves, A.I.; Freitas, C.; Viveiros, A.; Ribeiro, L.; Faria, S.; Freitas, D.; Faria, R.; Faria, J.t- Introduction: Since the first official case of COVID-19 in China in December 2019, researchers have been trying to uncover the mechanism of action of the severe acute respiratory syndrome Coronavirus 2 (Sars-CoV-2), which attacks several organs in addition to the lungs and causes circulatory changes that can lead to death not only from lung failure but also due to commitment of other organs. Objective: The a...

Towards a genome-wide transport systems encoding genes tracker
Lagoa, D.; Liu, Filipe; Ferreira, Eugénio C.; Faria, J.; Henry, C.; Dias, Oscar[Excerpt] Introduction: TRIAGE, is a tool currently embedded in merlin , which performs the identification of transport systems and automatically generates transport reactions for every metabolite transported by those carriers. Reactions generated by TRIAGE can be directly integrated in GSM models, as all metabolites involved have KEGG and/or ChEBI identifiers. Up to our knowledge, this is the only tool capable...
