Conservation Challenges Imposed by Evolutionary History and Habitat Suitability...
Gama, Mafalda; Banha, Filipe; Anastácio, PedroClimate change and associated shifts in temperature and precipitation patterns have become an increasing concern as drivers of ongoing biodiversity loss. The Mediterranean region is particularly vulnerable, being both a biodiversity hotspot and a region very prone to desertification. Freshwater mussels are amongst the most threatened invertebrate taxa worldwide. Unio tumidiformis is an endemic and endangered sp...

The silent extinction of freshwater mussels in Portugal
Lopes-Lima, M.; Reis, J.; Alvarez, Maria G.; Anastácio, P. M.; Banha, F.; Beja, P.; Castro, P.; Gama, Mafalda; Gil, M. G.; Gomes-dos-Santos, A.Freshwater mussels are one of the most threatened animal groups in the world. In the European Union, threatened and protected mussel species are not adequately monitored, while species considered to be common and widespread receive even less attention. This is particularly worrying in the Mediterranean region, where species endemism is high and freshwater habitats are severely affected by water scarcity. In the...
Non-Native Decapods in South America: Risk Assessment and Potential Impacts
de Oliveira, L. R.; Brito, Gustavo; Gama, Mafalda; Ovando, X. M. C.; Anastácio, P.; Cardoso, S. J.Biological invasions pose significant challenges in the Anthropocene, impacting ecosystem biodiversity and functioning. Ecological Niche Modeling is widely used to evaluate potential areas at risk of invasions, aiding in the prevention of invasive-species expansion and guiding conservation efforts in freshwater ecosystems. The main objectives of this study were to model the ecological niche and evaluate remaini...

Arrhythmogenic Left Ventricular Cardiomyopathy: A Successful Case of Extracorpo...
Gama, Mafalda; Cardoso, Isabel; Palma Anselmo, Mónica; Aguiar Rosa, Sílvia; Gaspar da Costa, Pedro; Fortuna, PhilipA 24-year-old man suffered a witnessed cardiac arrest after a padel game. Basic life support was immediately provided. The pre-hospital emergency services team continued the resuscitation efforts, and the patient was accepted for extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The return of spontaneous circulation was achieved in 45 minutes. The initial assessment revealed a ST-segment elevation in leads V4-V6 an...
