A retrospective study of the clinical relashionship between the use of removabl...
Campina, C.; Gomes, J.; Maia, P.; Proença, L.; Marques, J. F.; Marques, J.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the prevalence of fibrous lesions in the oral mucosa, associated with the use of removable dentures, at the Egas Moniz University Clinic between 2016 and 2019. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We evaluated 240 clinical histories of individuals who were rehabilitated with removable dentures who consulted the department of Oral Rehabilitation in the University Dental Clinic of IUEM, between 2016 and ...
A comparative model study between the survivability of dental implants versus d...
Alcobia, M.; Gomes, J.; Maia, P.; Proença, L.; Marques, J. F.; Marques, J.Aim: The aim of this Systematic Review is to compare the survival rate of teeth autotransplantation with immediate implant placement in cases of singular loss of teeth and obtain a clinical recommendation for similar cases. Materials And Methods: The research will be conducted by two independent reviewers in PubMed search and it will include studies from January 2017 to December 2020. The survival rate of both ...
iFloW: an integrated logistics software system for inbound supply chain traceab...
Santos, Nuno António Lira Fernandes Faria; Barbosa, Diogo Jorge Fernandes Serra; Maia, P.; Fernandes, Fábio André Oliveira; Rebelo, Márcio PereiraVisibility plays an important role in supply chain management. Such visibility is not only important for better planning, but especially for real-time execution related with the traceability of goods. In inbound supply chain management, logistics planners need to trace raw materials from their requests in order to properly plan a plant’s production. The iFloW (Inbound Logistics Tracking System) integrates logis...
Post-fire plant diversity and abundance in pine and eucalypt stands in Portugal...
Maia, P.; Keizer, J.; Vasques, A.; Abrantes, N.; Roxo, L.; Fernandes, P.; Ferreira, A.; Moreira, F.This study concerned the mid-term regeneration of the woody understory vegetation of pure and mixed stands of Pinus pinaster Ait. and Eucalyptus globulus Labill. in northern and central Portugal following wildfires in 2005 and 2006. Pine and eucalypt stands are the most widespread and most fire-prone forest types in Portugal. The main aim was to investigate the importance of biogeography, topography, forest typ...

OptFlux3: an improved platform for in silico design of cellular factories
Rocha, I.; Vilaça, Paulo; Maia, P.; Soares, Simão; Rocha, MiguelThe rational design of cellular factories for industrial biotechnology aims to create optimized organisms for the production of bulk chemicals, pharmaceuticals, food ingredients and enzymes, among others. Metabolic engineering (ME) plays a key role in this process, supported by the latest advances in genetic engineering in combination with computational tools to define targets for strain improvement. OptFlux is...
An integrated computational environment for elementary modes analysis of bioche...
Maia, P.; Vilaça, P.; Rocha, I.; Pont, M.; Tomb, J. F.; Rocha, MiguelElementary Flux Modes (EFMs) have been claimed as one of the most promising approaches for pathway analysis. These are a set of vectors that emerge from the stoichiometric matrix of a biochemical network through the use of convex analysis. The computation of all EFMs of a given network is an NP–hard problem and existing algorithms do not scale well. Moreover, the analysis of results is difficult given the thous...
Wildfire effects on the soil seed bank of a maritime pine stand: the importance...
Maia, P.; Pausas, J. G.; Arcenegui, V.; Guerrero, C.; Pérez-Bejarano, A.; Mataix-Solera, J.; Varela, M. E. T.; Fernandes, I.; Pedrosa, E. T.This study addressed the impacts of wildfire and, in particular, its severity on the seed bank of the litter/ash layer and the topsoil of a Mediterranean pine plantation (Pinus pinaster Ait.) in north-central Portugal. The study location was selected for presenting a homogeneous pine cover before the fire, on the one hand, and, on the other, heterogeneous patches with distinct degrees of damage to the pine crow...
AIBench: a rapid application development framework for translational research i...
Rocha, Miguel; Glez-Peña, Daniel; Reboiro-Jato, M.; Maia, P.; Díaz, Fernando; Fdez-Riverola, FlorentinoApplied research in both biomedical discovery and translational medicine today often requires the rapid development of fully featured applications containing both advanced and specific functionalities, for real use in practice. In this context, new tools are demanded that allowfor efficient generation, deployment and reutilization of such biomedical applications as well as their associated functionalities. In t...
The study of soil, hydrological, erosion and vegetation processes following wil...
Keizer, J.; Nunes, J.; Sande Silva, J.; Gomes Pereira, L.; Vieira, D.; Varela, M.; Prats, S.; Pinheiro, J.; Pereira, V.; Mendes, H.; Malvar, M.The EROSFIRE-II project (PTDC/AGR-CFL/70968/2006) has as overall aim to predict soil erosion risk in recently burnt forest areas, including following common post-fire forest management practices. Although the project’s main focus is on onsite erosion processes, also the export of sediments out of small catchments is addressed. To this end, a study area of about 60 ha located near to the village of Colmeal (muni...
