Botelho-Fontela, Sofia; Ferreira, Sílvia; Paixão, Gustavo; Pereira-Pinto, Ricardo; Vaz-Velho, Manuela; Pires, Maria dos Anjos; Payan-Carreira, RitaTraditional outdoor pig farming is renowned for its emphasis on animal welfare and the production of highly valued, quality meat. While seasonality is known to impact certain animals, particularly those raised outdoors, there is a lack of research on Bísaro boars, a native Portuguese breed. This research study was conducted on a total of 20 male entire Bísaro pigs, reared in outdoor pens from 4 to 13 months old...
Growth Performance, Carcass and Meat Traits of Autochthonous Arouquesa Weaners ...
Sacarrão-Birrento, Laura; Gomes, Maria José; Silva, Severiano R.; Silva, José A.; Moreira, Duarte; Vieira, Raquel; Ferreira, Luís Mendes; Pereira, PedroArouquesa is an autochthonous bovine breed known for its Arouquesa PDO beef labeling.

Two trials differing in diet and weaning age were conducted. The first trial included a TF group fed the traditional way and weane...
Is there a need for attenuation correction in the 99mTc-DMSA scans on pediatric...
Nogueira, Fábio; Lemos, Joana; Oliveira, Marta; Silva, José A.; Sousa, Maria C.; Cunha, Lídia; Metello, Luís F.Introduction: The quantification of th e differential renal function in adults can be difficult due to many factors - on e of the se is the variances in kidney depth and the attenuation related with all the tissue s between the kidney and the camera. Some authors refer that t he lower attenuation i n p ediatric patients makes unnecessary the use of attenuation correction algorithms. This study will com pare the...
Ichthyofauna assemblages from two unexplored Atlantic seamounts: Northwest Bank...
Monteiro, Pedro; Ribeiro, Daniel; Silva, José A.; Bispo, João; Gonçalves, J. M. S.Underwater censuses by divers were used to study the fish assemblages from two unexplored Atlantic seamounts in the Cape Verde archipelago. Fifty three species of 27 families were recorded: 27 in Northwest Bank and 46 in João Valente Bank. Northwest Bank had dense schools, while João Valente Bank had higher species richness and smaller schools. Both seamounts were dominated mainly by coastal species directly de...
