Abnormal Responses in Cognitive Impulsivity Circuits Are Associated with Glycos...
Jorge, Helena; Duarte, Isabel C.; Paiva, Sandra; Relvas, Ana Paula; Castelo-Branco, MiguelPublished online: March 22, 2022; Background: Risky health decisions and impulse control profiles may impact on metabolic control in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). We hypothesize that the neural correlates of cognitive impulsivity and decision-making in T1DM relate to metabolic control trajectories. Methods: We combined functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), measures of metabolic trajectories (glycosyl...

NEW PARADIGMS IN THE MANAGEMENT OF COMPLEX WOUNDS
Jorge, Helena; Silva, Cláudia; Pinto, Cíntia; Almeida, Ana; Mendes Pedro, LuísIntroduction: The treatment of wounds is a topic with growing interest due to the physical and psychosocial implications, to the costs associated with the treatments and also due to the stress caused to the patients, families and the health system. The World Health Organization (WHO) considers chronic wounds as an epidemic due to its high prevalence. In Portugal the available epidemiological data is limited but...
Successful metabolic control in diabetes type 1 depends on individual neuroecon...
Jorge, Helena; Duarte, Isabel C.; Correia, Bárbara R.; Barros, Luísa; Relvas, Ana Paula; Castelo Branco, MiguelThe supplementary material for this article can be found at https://doi.org/10.1017/S0033291721000386; Neurobehavioral decision profiles have often been neglected in chronic diseases despite their direct impact on major public health issues such as treatment adherence. This remains a major concern in diabetes, despite intensive efforts and public awareness initiatives regarding its complications. We hypothesize...
Tribal love: The neural correlates of passionate engagement in football fans
Duarte, Isabel C.; Afonso, Sónia; Jorge, Helena; Cayolla, Ricardo; Ferreira, Carlos; Castelo-Branco, Miguel; Cayolla, RicardoThe tribal character of the affective link between football fans and their teams is a well-recognized phenomenon. Other forms of love such as romantic or maternal attachment have previously been studied from a neuroimaging point of view. Here we aimed to investigate the neural basis of this tribal form of love, which implies both the feeling of belongingness and rivalry against opposing teams. A pool of 56 part...
Visual Perception and Reading: New Clues to Patterns of Dysfunction Across Mult...
Rodrigues, Ana Pina; Rebola, José; Jorge, Helena; Ribeiro, Maria José; Pereira, Marcelino; van Asselen, Marieke; Castelo-Branco, MiguelPURPOSE. The specificity of visual channel impairment in dyslexia has been the subject of much controversy. The purpose of this study was to determine if a differential pattern of impairment can be verified between visual channels in children with developmental dyslexia, and in particular, if the pattern of deficits is more conspicuous in tasks where the magnocellular–dorsal system recruitment prevails. Additio...

Holding family by the ends: Grandparents’ dilemmas as fulltime caregivers
Jorge, Helena; Lind, WolfgangCaring for a grandkin on a full-time basis, when biological parents are permanently absent, is an unexpected task for grandparents. However, in contemporary society, this is an increasingly emergent problem in many countries. The increase in unemployment, divorce, emigration, teenage pregnancy, drug use, detention, terminal diseases or biological parents’ death push grandparents to assume responsabilities that ...
