Introduction:The Hugo™ RAS system represents a novel robotic platform recently implemented in our department. Despite its introduction, there is still a scarcity of data regarding extraperitoneal robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (eRARP) carried out using this system. Our primary aim is to compare perioperative, early functional, and oncological outcomes of eRARP with the Hugo RAS System during our centre’s ...
RESUMO: Este trabalho apresenta um modelo geofísico da parte norte do Cratão do São Francisco, com base na razão Vp/Vs média e espessura da crosta, obtidos a partir de dados de Função do Receptor (FR). Os dados foram adquiridos ao longo de um perfil W-E de aproximadamente 800 km de extensão. A inversão dos dados de FR mostra uma crosta com espessura entre 40-43 km, uma Vp/Vs de ~ 1,75 sob a Bacia do São Francis...
This work presents the design and implementation of Codeflex, a web-based platform and repository of programming problems, that enables the learning and practice of competitive programming in multiple programming language paradigms. The Codeflex programming platform performs automatic evaluation of submitted solutions for a very diverse set of programming languages, in real time, considering the specificities a...
Proteus mirabilis is an opportunistic pathogen and is responsible for more than 40% of all cases of catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs). Healthcare-associated infections have been aggravated by the constant emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains. Because of this, the use of phages to combat bacterial infections gained renewed interest. In this study, we describe the biological and...
Gastrointestinal involvement in Waldenström macroglobulinemia is an extremely rare lymphoproliferative disorder. We describe a Waldenström macroglobulinemia patient presenting with diarrhea, dyspepsia, weight loss and malabsorption. Endoscopic studies revealed diffuse deposition of immunoglobulin M and kappa light chains in the mucosa of the small intestine. Later, on evaluation in the Haemato-Oncology clinic, ...
Introduction: In Portugal, a colorectal cancer screening program based on faecal immunochemical test followed by colonoscopy was shown to be cost-effective for individuals between 50 and 74 years old. We report the first findings of the implementation of a population-based program In Northern Portugal.Material and Methods: In the pilot phase, eligible subjects were allocated either to a direct mailing invitatio...
