In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we assess the methodological approach, content, and effectiveness of training initiatives addressing medical students' knowledge, attitudes, confidence and discrimination perception towards LGBTQIA + people....
Predictive Value for Increased Red Blood Cell Distribution Width in Unprovoked ...
Febra, Cláudia; Spinu, Verónica; Ferreira, Filipa; Gil, Victor; Maio, Rui; Penque, Deborah; Macedo, AnaAcute venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common worldwide disease admitted to emergency departments (ED), usually presenting as pulmonary embolism or lower limb deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Due to the lack of typical clinical and biomarker diagnostic features of unprovoked VTE, early identification is challenging and has direct consequences on correct treatment delay. Longitudinal, prospective, observational stud...

COVID-19 fatality rates in hospitalized patients: systematic review and meta-an...
Macedo, Ana; Gonçalves, Nilza; Febra, CláudiaCoronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered coronavirus. Although general and local public health report deathly cases, case fatality rates are still largely unknown. Thus, we sought to evaluate the mortality of COVID-19.
Diagnostic role of mean-platelet volume in acute pulmonary embolism: a meta-ana...
Febra, Cláudia; Macedo, AnaAcute pulmonary embolism (PE) is the third most fatal cardiovascular disease. PE is frequently misdiagnosed due to its clinical presentation's heterogeneity and the inexistence of biomarkers for its immediate diagnosis. Mean platelet volume (MPV) has shown a potential role as a biomarker in acute PE. In this analysis, we aimed to systematically compare the MPV in patients with and without definite diagnosis of ...
