The effect of smoking on lung function changes during a 16-week combined exerci...
Silva, Fernanda M.; Ferreira, José P.; Teixeira, Ana M.; Monteiro, Diogo; Duarte-Mendes, PedroPurpose To investigate the longitudinal changes in lung function of sedentary middle-aged workers over a 16-week combined exercise training program. Methods Thirty-six sedentary workers (53.70 ± 6.92 years old) were randomly allocated to either a combined aerobic and resistance training program (n = 18) or a control group (n = 18). Lung function was evaluated through spirometry using a portable flow spirometer ...
Effects of combined aerobic-resistance training on health-related quality of li...
Silva, Fernanda M.; Ferreira, José P.; Teixeira, Ana M.; Massart, Alain; Duarte-Mendes, PedroIIntroduction: Poor quality of life and psychological stress have been associated with worse clinical outcomes, including anxiety and depression disorders, cardiovascular diseases, metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, and premature mortality. Evidence suggested that physically active adults were more likely to report better quality of life and increased capacity to deal with stress, compared to their sedentary ...

Changes in metabolic and inflammatory markers after a combined exercise program...
Silva, Fernanda; Duarte-Mendes, Pedro; Ferreira, José P.; Carvalho, Eugénia; Monteiro, Diogo; Massart, Alain; Farinha, Carlos; Soares, Carlos M.Purpose: We investigated the effects of a 16-week combined exercise training on body composition, metabolic and inflammatory markers in sedentary middle-aged workers. We also assessed whether significant alterations in metabolic markers were associated with changes in health-related outcomes. Methods: This randomized controlled trial involved 46 participants randomly allocated into control and exercise groups. ...
The effects of combined exercise training on glucose metabolism and inflammator...
Silva, Fernanda; Duarte-Mendes, Pedro; Teixeira, Ana; Soares, Carlos M.; Ferreira, José P.This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to determine the magnitude of the effect of combined exercise training on glucose metabolism markers, adipokines, and inflammatory cytokines in non-diabetic sedentary adults. PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane Library electronic databases and reference lists of included studies were explored for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that included physically ina...
Approaching a new era in orbital debris mitigation: a holistic overview of econ...
Ferreira, José P.; Ferreira, MariaThe number of orbiting bodies has increasingly grown in an unrestricted and unregulated manner over the last decade, and one collision can trigger a cascade effect that may affect the access to space for a long time span. To aid in the mitigation of such problem, the arrival of on-orbit servicing brings hope into the panorama, setting its foundations in the arising of the New Space economy. Recently, several pr...
Prevalence of burnout syndrome in university students: A systematic review
Rosales-Ricardo, Yury; Rizzo-Chunga, Florentino; Mocha-Bonilla, Julio; Ferreira, José P.Background. Burnout syndrome is a social and health problem in college students. Objective. To synthesize evidence from previous studies on the prevalence of burnout syndrome in university students in their three-dimensional approach. Method. The search strategies followed the PRISMA guidelines and were based on the following descriptive terms: “burnout,” “studies,” “prevalence,” “students.” Pubmed, Web of Scie...

Growth and weight status of Brazilian children with autism spectrum disorders: ...
Toscano, Chrystiane; Ferreira, José P.; Gaspar, Joana M.; Carvalho, Humberto M.Objective: This study examined the growth status and physical development of Brazilian children with autism spectrum disorders from 4 to 15 years of age. Furthermore, it was examined whether variation in growth patterns and weight status was influenced by the use of psychotropic medications. Methods: One-hundred and twenty children aged 3.6---12.1 years at baseline (average = 7.2 years, SD = 2.3 years) diagnose...
