Felgueiras, H; Parra, J; Cruz, S; Pereira, P; Santos, A; Rua, A; Meira, D; Fonseca, P; Pedrosa, C; Cardoso, J; Almeida, C; Araújo, M; Santos, EBACKGROUND: In multiple sclerosis (MS), even in the absence of a clinical episode of optic neuritis (ON), the optic nerve and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) may be damaged leading to dyschromatopsia. Subclinical dyschromatopsia has been described in MS associated with lower motor and cognitive performances. OBJECTIVES: To set the prevalence of dyschromatopsia in eyes of MS patients without a history of ON, to...

A deep-water crinoid Leptometra celtica bed off the Portuguese south coast
Fonseca, P; Abrantes, F; Aguilar, R; Campos, A; Cunha, M; Ferreira, D; Fonseca, TP; Henriques, V; Machado, M; Mechos, A; Pérez, S; Relvas, PThe existence of a wide bed of the crinoid Leptometra celtica (M’Andrew and Barrett 1857), at approximately 500mdepth, off the Portuguese south coast is inferred from remotely operated vehicle (ROV) transects carried out as part of a research project (IMPACT) aimed at evaluating the impact of bottom trawling on the burrowing crustacean Norway lobster (Nephrops norvegicus) fishing grounds. The crinoid bed is loc...
