A circular economy approach in the development of superabsorbent Polymeric matr...
Álvarez-Castillo, Estefanía; Oliveira, Sónia; Bengoechea, Carlos; Sousa, Isabel; Raymundo, Anabela; Guerrero, AntonioThis manuscript focuses on the production of polymeric matrices enriched in minerals and antioxidant compounds. The biopolymers employed are obtained from different by-products of the agro-food industry (porcine plasma protein, pea protein concentrate and soy protein isolate), which helps to revalorize them. Two different manufacturing techniques are employed to produce these matrices: 3D-printing and injection...
Anticoagulation improves survival in patients with cirrhosis and portal vein th...
Guerrero, Antonio; Campo, Laura del; Piscaglia, Fabio; Scheiner, Bernhard; Han, Guohong; Violi, Francesco; Ferreira, Carlos; Téllez, LuisBackground & aims: Previous meta-analyses demonstrated the safety and efficacy of anticoagulation in the recanalization of portal vein thrombosis in patients with cirrhosis. Whether this benefit translates into improved survival is unknown. We conducted an individual patient data (IPD) meta-analysis to assess the effect of anticoagulation on all-cause mortality in patients with cirrhosis and portal vein thrombo...
Development of innovative clean label emulsions stabilized by vegetable proteins
Cabrita, Marta; Simões, Sara; Álvarez-Castillo, Estefanía; Castelo-Branco, Diogo; Tasso, Ana; Figueira, Diogo; Guerrero, Antonio; Raymundo, AnabelaThe consumer’s perception that food is one of the main determining factors for health increases the demand for foods in line with this trend.
