Nursing diagnoses identified in the care of people undergoing percutaneous coro...
Sá, Bruno; Gomes, Bruno; Pinto, Cristina; Príncipe, Fernanda; Fajardo Gomes, Aramid; Sá, Bruno; Gomes, Bruno; Pinto, Cristina; Príncipe , FernandaIntroduction: Cardiovascular diseases continue to be the leading cause of death worldwide, killing an average of 17.9 million people a year. In terms of techniques and procedures, Percutaneous Coronary Intervention is the most used hemodynamic procedure in Acute Coronary Syndrome and Coronary Artery Disease. The nurse's role in relation to these procedures is developed in three phases: before, during, and after...
HBM4EU chromates study: overall results and recommendations for the biomonitori...
Santonen, Tiina; Porras, Simo P.; Bocca, Beatrice; Bousoumah, Radia; Duca, Radu Corneliu; Galea, Karen S.; Godderis, Lode; Göen, Thomas; Hardy, EmilieExposure to hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] may occur in several occupational activities, e.g., welding, Cr(VI) electroplating, and other surface treatment processes. The aim of this study was to provide EU-relevant data on occupational Cr(VI) exposure to support the regulatory risk assessment and decision-making. In addition, the capability and validity of different biomarkers for the assessment of Cr(VI) exposur...
New “Omics” Approaches as Tools to Explore Mechanistic Nanotoxicology
Ventura, Célia; Torres, Vukosava; Vieira, Luís; Gomes, Bruno; Rodrigues, António Sebastião; Rueff, José; Penque, Deborah; Silva, Maria JoãoIn the last years, “omics” approaches have been applied to study the toxicity of nanomaterials (NM) with the aim of obtaining insightful information on their biological effects. One of the most developed “omics” field, transcriptomics, expects to find unique profiles of differentially expressed genes after exposure to NM that, besides providing evidence of their mechanistic mode of action, may also be used as b...
Crowd quantification with flow direction estimation : a low-cost IoT-enabled so...
Santil, Ricardo; Gomes, Bruno; Paiva, Sara; Lopes, Sérgio IvanMonitoring crowds in public environments is of great value for understanding human routines and managing crowd routes in indoor or outdoor environments. This type of information is crucial to improve the business strategy of an organization, and can be achieved by performing crowd quantification and flow direction estimation to generate information that can be later used by a business intelligence/analytic laye...
Towards edge intelligence in smart spaces
Gomes, BrunoAfter more than two decades of existence, the internet of things has been revolutionizing the way we interact with the world around us. Although, in its origins, the adoption of a cloud computing paradigm supported this ubiquitous computing model, the increasing complexity of IoT systems has led to the gradual fading of the traditional hierarchical model of cloud computing. The search for solutions to the probl...

Santonen, Tiina; Alimonti, Alessandro; Bocca, Beatrice; Duca, Radu Corneliu; Galea, Karen S.; Godderis, Lode; Göen, Thomas; Gomes, Bruno; Hanser, OgierThe EU human biomonitoring initiative, HBM4EU, aims to coordinate and advance human biomonitoring (HBM) across Europe. Within its remit, the project is gathering new, policy-relevant, EU-wide data on occupational exposure to relevant priority chemicals and developing new approaches for occupational biomonitoring. In this manuscript, the hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) study design is presented as the first example...

Santonen, Tiina; Alimonti, Alessandro; Bocca, Beatrice; Duca, Radu Corneliu; Galea, Karen S.; Godderis, Lode; Göen, Thomas; Gomes, Bruno; Hanser, OgierBackground: The EU human biomonitoring initiative, HBM4EU, aims to co-ordinate and advance human biomonitoring across Europe and develop new approaches for biomonitoring. Hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) is an important occupational carcinogen, which compounds are currently authorized in Europe. In addition, a binding limit value for occupational exposure to Cr(VI) has been recently agreed in EU. These regulatory a...
