Impact of physical layer impairments on C+L-band metro networks

To ensure future data traffic capacities, multi-band transmission in optical networks is being proposed, by adding wavelength division multiplexing channels in the L-band to the existing C-band channels. In this work, we study the filterless drop and waste amplified and unamplified solutions used in metro networks with L-band tributary nodes. The cost and power consumption of these nodes is evaluated, as well a...

A importância dos artrópodes ixodídeos para a Saúde Pública na Região de Saúde ...

As doenças transmitidas por vetores têm reemergido → alterações climáticas, demográficas, genéticas nos agentes patogénicos, resistências a inseticidas e mobilidade de populações e bens. Os ixodídeos são um dos vetores com mais impacto na Saúde Pública. Este estudo pretende caracterizar a distribuição de ixodídeos por critérios temporo-espaciais, ambientais e parasitismo, no âmbito da Rede de Vigilância de Veto...

Desenvolvimento de uma versão portuguesa do nutritional risk screening NRS 2002

The Nutritional Risk Screening (NRS 2002) is a tool that was developed by the Danish Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition. It is a valid system that allows the detection of the risk of undernutrition or of undernutrition in hospitalized individuals and is applied by health professionals. A Portuguese language version of NRS 2002 was developed with linguistic and cultural equivalence to the original usin...

Distillates composition obtained of fermented Arbutus unedo L. fruits from diff...

The fruits of Arbutus unedo L., a shrub that grows spontaneously in countries around the Mediterranean basin, are traditionally harvested and used for the production of a distilled spirit. The main objective of this work is to compare the chemical profile of distillates obtained from fermented A. unedo fruits. Fifteen distinct distillates were obtained from ten clones and five seedlings, and they were evaluated...

Age-related expression of TGF beta family receptors in human cumulus oophorus c...

During ovarian follicle growth, local cellular interactions are essential for oocyte quality acquisition and successful fertilization. While cumulus cells (CCs) nurture oocytes, they also deliver oocyte-secreted factors (OSFs) that activate receptors on CCs. We hypothesized that disturbance of those interactions contributes to age-related lower reproductive success in women submitted to assisted reproductive te...

Loss of thermal refugia near equatorial range limits

This study examines the importance of thermal refugia along the majority of the geographical range of a key inter- tidal species (Patella vulgata Linnaeus, 1758) on the Atlantic coast of Europe. We asked whether differences between sun-exposed and shaded microhabitats were responsible for differences in physiological stress and ecological perfor- mance and examined the availability of refugia near equatorial ra...

Systematisation of seismic retrofitting in vernacular architecture

This paper aims to identify and to systematize the data obtained during the working process of the research project 'SEISMIC-V –Vernacular Seismic Culture in Portugal' in terms of seismic- retrofitting elements earthquake -resistant reinforcement implemented in vernacular buildings. The data will be distinguished based on the structural seismic strengthening and according to the following criteria: strengthenin...
