An integrative review of potential diagnostic biomarkers for complex regional p...
Lopes, Revelino; Santos, André; Gomes, Teresa; Ribeiro, Júlia; Rodrigues, Ivone; Paiva, Bruno; Nzwalo, Isa; Catamo Vaz, Deise Haua da Silva; Baco, JamalBackground: Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a rare, chronic, painful, neurological, debilitating disorder. Despite the substantial impact on quality of life, diagnosis remains challenging due to its complex pathophysiology and subjective clinical criteria. This integrative review aims to synthesize current research on potential diagnostic biomarkers for CRPS. Methods: A systematic search was conducted ...
Exploring Quantum Key Distribution Routing Algorithms
Barreirinhas, João; Girão-Silva, Rita; Gomes, Teresa; Gunkel, MatthiasQuantum Key Distribution allows the exchange of symmetric keys with information-theoretic security between adjacent nodes. Key relay techniques in Quantum Key Distribution Networks (QKDNs) address the need for symmetric keys between nodes that are either too distant for establishing a quantum link or separated by intermediate nodes. The Secure Key Rate is limited, which triggers a need to use buffers (Quantum K...
PRESERFLO Microshunt™ versus Non-Penetrating Deep Sclerectomy for Glaucoma Mana...
Cunha, Bruna; Gil, Pedro; Lopes, Edgar; Elisa-Luís, Maria; Reina, Maria; Gomes, Teresa; Cardigos, JoanaPurpose: To compare the short-term efficacy and safety of the PRESERFLO™ MicroShunt (PF) versus Non-Penetrating Deep Sclerectomy (NPDS) with Esnoper®. Methods: Retrospective comparative cohort study at a tertiary hospital including 79 eyes from 79 patients submitted to surgery (32 PF implantation, Group 1 and 47 NPDS, Group 2) between January 2022 and August 2023, with one year follow-up. Outcome measures inclu...
A New Linear Path Pair Availability Constraint for Network Design
Martins, Lúcia; Santos, Dorabella; Girão-Silva, Rita; Gomes, TeresaIt is essential for network operators to guarantee required levels of availability in the network without incurring in excessive costs. We address the optimization problem of upgrading links at a given cost, to achieve end-to-end availability guarantees in the network, via pairs of working and backup paths. These guarantees are expressed as nonlinear path pair availability constraints which cannot be readily li...
Simulation Study on the Impact of Variable SKR and Outdated Information in QKD ...
Boavida, Luís; Gomes, Teresa; Girão-Silva, Rita; Johann, Tim; Giemsa, Daniel; Gunkel, MatthiasQuantum Key Distribution (QKD) networks seek to address the challenges of secure communications in post-quantum networks. QKD modules are used to ensure secure key rates (SKRs). Due to the generation process, there may be some fluctuations in the key creation rate. In order to decrease the impact of these fluctuations, buffers are used in each link, designated as quantum key pools (QKPs). These QKPs are periodi...
Deciphering plant health status: the link between secondary metabolites, fungal...
Gomes, Teresa; Pereira, J.A.; Moya-Larano, Jordi; Poveda, Jorge; Lino-Neto, Teresa; Baptista, PaulaPlant-associated microorganisms are increasingly recognized to play key roles in host health. Among several strategies, associated microorganisms can promote the production of specific metabolites by their hosts. However, there is still a huge gap in the understanding of such mechanisms in plant-microorganism interaction. Here, we want to determine whether different levels of olive leaf spot (OLS) disease incid...

Comma: interface de aprendizagem à distância - a intervenção do designer no aux...
Gomes, TeresaO presente relatório integra-se no plano de estudos do Mestrado em Design de Comunicação da Escola Superior de Artes e Design e visa a elaboração de um projeto de web design no âmbito do Design Social. O seu intuito é analisar a função social do design no Auxílio à Situação de Emergência Social da Crise dos Refugiados. O contexto de desenvolvimento decorre da apresentação Breaking Borders Through Art, um projet...
Multiclass data plane recovery using different recovery schemes in SDN: a simul...
Jorge, Luisa; Melo, Paulo; Gomes, TeresaTo provide dependable services SDN networks need to be resilient to link or switching node failures. This entails, when faults occur, ensuring differentiated types of recovery, according to carried traffic, to routing paths. However, the choice of the recovery scheme best suited to each traffic class is not direct, nor is obvious the impact of the combination of various recovery schemes, according to traffic cl...
Determining the Minimum Cost Steiner Tree for Delay Constrained Problems
Martins, Lúcia; Santos, Dorabella; Gomes, Teresa; Girão-Silva, RitaWe address a variant of the Steiner tree problem for delay constrained problems. The addressed problem consists in determining the minimum cost Steiner tree, while guaranteeing that the delay between any two terminal nodes does not exceed a given maximum value. This problem is known as the bounded diameter Steiner minimum tree problem. We propose a compact formulation based on integer linear programming (ILP) t...
