Low Anterior Resection Syndrome, A Predictable Complication?

 Introduction: Rectal cancer is the fifth most frequent neoplasm in both sexes in Portugal. With the evolution of preoperative imaging tests, surgical techniques and neoadjuvant therapy, anterior rectal resection (ARR) has become the gold standard in the treatment of this condition. Nevertheless, functional outcomes arise, namely the development of Low Anterior Resection Syndrome (LARS). It is defined as L...

In this work, carried out on a corpus of opinion texts produced by students of Portuguese as a Foreign Language, at level B1, whose theme focused on a comparative perspective between two cultures, native and host, we proceeded to a descriptive-qualitative analysis of modifying mechanisms of illocutionary force, attenuation and reinforcement, which the students resorted to. The results allowed to observe that th...

Application of Markov chains in the prediction of rock slopes degradation

In this paper it is proposed a degradation model for rock slopes, which will integrate a global tool for sustainable management of road infrastructures, currently under development. The proposed model is based on a continue-time Markov chain and predicts the evolution of a Slope Quality Index (SQI) over time. Taking advantage of the memoryless property of Markov models, the proposed model is able to predict the...
