Chrono-nutrition and post-bariatric weight loss: insights from the Portuguese C...
Rodrigues, J.; Magalhães, V.; Santos, M. P.; Reis, C.; Pichel, F.; Soares, P.; Santos, J.; Vilela, S.Background: Post-bariatric weight loss varies substantially, and a large proportion of patients respond poorly. The literature highlights the importance of chrono-nutrition for weight regulation. This study aims to explore the chrono-related factors associated with poorer weight loss. Methods: This study was conducted within the ChronoWise project, an ongoing prospective cohort study following patients undergoi...

Bisphenol A and cardiometabolic risk in adolescents: Data from the Generation X...
Magalhães, V.; Severo, M.; Costa, SA; Correia, D.; Carvalho, Catarina; Torres, Duarte; Casal, S.; Cunha, S.; Lopes, C.Background and aims: Bisphenol A (BPA), an endocrine disruptor widely used in food contact materials, has been linked to a worse health pro file. This study intends to estimate the association between BPA exposure and cardiometabolic patterns at adolescence. Methods and results: Data from the Portuguese population -based birth cohort Generation XXI at the age of 13 were used (n = 2386 providing 3 -day food diar...
Application of a self-supervised learning technique for monitoring industrial s...
Magalhães, V.; Costa, M. Fernanda P.; Ferreira, Manuel João Oliveira; Pinto, T.; Figueiredo, V.Supervised learning has reached a bottleneck as they require expensive and time-consuming annotations. In addition, in some problems, such as in industrial spaces, it is not always possible to acquire a large number of images. Self-supervised learning helps these issues by extracting information from the data itself, without requiring labels and has achieved good performance, closing the gap between supervised ...

Group B Streptococcus Hijacks the Host Plasminogen System to Promote Brain Endo...
Magalhães, V.; Andrade, E.; Alves, J.; Ribeiro, A:; Kim, K.; Lima, M.; Trieu-Cuot, P.; Ferreira, P.Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is the leading cause of meningitis in neonates. We have previously shown that plasminogen, once recruited to the GBS cell surface and converted into plasmin by host-derived activators, leads to an enhancement of bacterial virulence. Here, we investigated whether plasmin(ogen) bound at the GBS surface contributes to blood-brain barrier penetration and invasion of the central nervous s...
