Abordagem de enfermagem no cuidado da ferida cirúrgica com deiscência: estudo d...
Oliveira, Ana Catarina; Agostinho, Inês; Picoito, RicardoIntrodução: As complicações cirúrgicas, como a deiscência da ferida operatória, representam um desafio na área neurocirúrgica, podendo comprometer recuperação da pessoa e aumentar o risco de infeção. Esta condição pode ser diagnosticada até 30 dias após a cirurgia (Borges & Diccini, 2004). Diversos fatores podem contribuir para a ocorrência desta coentre mplicação, incluindo infeção da ferida cirúrgica, nutriçã...

Oliveira, Ana CatarinaO principal objetivo deste relatório é a descrição detalhada de todo o meu percurso de desenvolvimento de competências comuns e específicas enquanto enfermeira especialista e mestre em enfermagem com base nas experiências vividas em estágio e no projeto de intervenção profissional que está preconizado a realizar durante este ciclo de estudos. Através da análise crítica e reflexiva do percurso para a aquisição d...
CD20+ T cells in monoclonal B cell lymphocytosis and chronic lymphocytic leukem...
Rodrigues, Cristiana; Laranjeira, Paula; Pinho, A. C. O.; Silva, Isabel; Silva, Sandra; Coucelo, Margarida; Oliveira, Ana Catarina; Simões, Ana TeresaIntroduction: In monoclonal B cell lymphocytosis (MBL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), the expansion of malignant B cells disrupts the normal homeostasis and interactions between B cells and T cells, leading to immune dysregulation. CD20+ T cells are a subpopulation of T cells that appear to be involved in autoimmune diseases and cancer. Methods: Here, we quantified and phenotypically characterized CD20...
Efficiency and predictability of maxillary expansion with Invisalign® system
Rocha, Ana Sofia; Gonçalves, Maria; Oliveira, Ana Catarina; Pinho, TeresaThe Invisalign® system aims to ensure aesthetics and achieve positive clinical results; however, its efficacy is still debatable. Along with lower incisor intrusion and upper molar distalization, arch expansion is one of the most predictable movements that may be achieved using clear aligners. This makes the system a conceivable method for the correction of crowding and posterior dentoalveolar crossbites. The a...
Evaluation of the effect of mouthwashes on titanium alloy miniscrews: a systema...
Es-Samti, Lamiae; Oliveira, Ana Catarina; Santos, Sofia; Santos, Catarina; Sousa-Santos, PrimaveraOrthodontic miniscrews (MSs) are increasingly used in orthodontics, providing good treatment results, particularly Ti-6Al-4V MSs. Sometimes, after placing the MSs, orthodontists prescribe mouthwashing to avoid risk of infection, thus ensuring good stability and optimizing the final treatment result. The aim of this review is to analyze the effects of chlorhexidine (CHX) and sodium fluoride (NaF) mouthwashes on ...
Evaluation of the themes chosen for the dissertation of the Integrated Master’s...
Azevedo, Mariana; Ferreira, Maria João; Cantante, Juliana; Oliveira, Ana Catarina; Lobo, Ana Paula; Sousa-Santos, Primavera; Vale, TeresaThe Children’s Oral Health and Prevention Service at IUCS-CESPU comprises three areas – Pediatric Dentistry, Orthodontics and Preventive Dentistry –, which, in the final years of the Integrated Master’s Degree in Dental Medicine, are taught within the scope of a single subject, the Pediatric Dentistry Clinic. Many of the topics covered here have stagnated due to a lack of knowledge, making it essential to recog...
Coronal repercussions of maxillary central incisor torque with clear aligners –...
Oliveira, Ana Catarina; Rocha, Ana Sofia; Sousa-Santos, Primavera; Pinho, TeresaRecent years have witnessed a big evolution of clear aligner technology, due to the growing importance of aesthetics and comfort. An adequate coronal torque value has a significant impact on smile aesthetics and on the patient’s soft tissue profile. The aim of this systematic review is to evaluate the current knowledge about the efficacy of the maxillary central incisor coronal torque in the InvisalignÒ system....
Three-dimensional evaluation of impacted maxillary canines and repercussions on...
Leitão, Rita; Rocha, Ana Sofia; Oliveira, Ana Catarina; Peres, Ana Luísa; Pinho, TeresaMaxillary canines have very important roles in aesthetics and function. They are the second most frequently impacted teeth. One of the most severe complications associated with impacted maxillary canines is root resorption of adjacent teeth. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) provides three-dimensional multiplanar images and detailed information on dentofacial structures. The aim of this systematic review is ...
Metabolic Disruption of Gold Nanospheres, Nanostars and Nanorods in Human Metas...
Soares, Sílvia; Pereira, Cláudia; Sousa, André P; Oliveira, Ana Catarina; Sales, M. Goreti F.; Correa-Duarte, Miguel A; Guerreiro, Susana GNanomaterials offer a broad spectrum of applications in biomedicine. The shapes of gold nanoparticles could modulate tumor cell behavior. Spherical (AuNPsp), stars (AuNPst) and rods (AuNPr) shapes of polyethylene glycol coated-gold nanoparticles (AuNPs-PEG) were synthesized. Metabolic activity, cellular proliferation, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were measured and the impact of AuNPs-PEG in metabolic enzym...
