Tracheal Surgery - a 10-year Center Experience
M. Castro, Patricia; Silva, Cátia; Lima, António; Miranda, José; Guerra, MiguelBackground: Tracheal surgery is a specialized field in which many disciplines work jointly due to the variety of indications and the extended topography. The main indications for surgery include inflammatory (generally post-intubation), congenital or post-traumatic stenoses, benign or malignant neoplasms and tracheal lacerations, whether iatrogenic or traumatic. The purpose of this study is to review the manage...
Assessing the Efficiency of Collective Decisions in Corporate Context
Miranda, José; Fdez-Riverola, Florentino; Leite, Lara; Gonçalves, Raquel; Vicente, Henrique; Neves, JoséThis study evaluates the effectiveness of the corporate collective decision-making process in daily operations, using a unique blend of Mathematical Logic and Entropy in the representation and processing of knowledge. This approach aims at boosting system management and the performance of decision-makers both individually and as a group. The corporate collective decision-making process is inherently intricate, ...
Outcomes Of Surgically Treated N2-Positive Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Rei, Joana; Castro, Patrícia; Guerra, Miguel; Miranda, JoséIntroduction: The role of surgery in the treatment of stage IIB/IIIA lung cancer is still a matter of debate. To assess the outcomes of N2-positive patients, we performed a retrospective 10-year study including all patients with histologically proven N2 disease submitted to lung resection surgery by the same surgical team in three different hospitals. Materials and Methods: Demographic, clinical, surgical and s...
Third-Degree Atrioventricular Block And Asystole After Lung Resection: A Rare C...
M. Castro, Patricia; Rei, Joana; Silva, Cátia; Miranda, José; Guerra, MiguelSurgical resection remains the optimal therapeutic option for early-stage operable NSCLC. Despite significant advances in recent years related to anesthetic and surgical techniques, cardiopulmonary complications remain major causes for postoperative morbimortality. In this paper we present a case of a patient who developed complete AV block followed by asystole after lung resection surgery. The patient un...
A Sustainable Approach to Marketable Banking Stress and Burnout
Miranda, José; Machado, Joana; Neves, Mariana; Fdez-Riverola, Florentino; Vicente, Henrique; Neves, JoséIt is now widely acknowledged that working in marketable banking (MB) can be a major source of stress. Meeting overly ambitious commercial targets or adapting to changes in the industry can often result in stressful situations within MB. The banking industry is known for being one of the most stressful industries to work in, as evidenced by extensive research on the topic spanning several decades. Managing stre...
Spreading Through Air Spaces And Thinking About Lung Metastases
M. Castro, Patricia; Rei, Joana; Silva, Cátia; Miranda, José; Guerra, MiguelIntroduction: Spread through air spaces (STAS) is a novel pattern of invasion in primary lung cancers, which was introduced in the 2015 World Health Organization classification. Several studies have validated STAS to be a predictor of clinical outcome in lung adenocarcinoma. However, little is known about STAS as a mode of intraparenchymal diffusion of pulmonary metastases (PMs). Objectives: The aim of this stu...
Geração, análise e aplicação de paisagens neutras em ecologia
Cambui, Elaine; Vasconcelos, Rodrigo; Mestre, Frederico; Boscolo, Danilo; Miranda, JoséAs mudanças na estrutura e configuração das paisagens, oriundas de processos naturais ou antrópicos têm motivado um aumento nos estudos em Ecologia de Paisagens nos últimos anos. Os modelos neutros de paisagens surgem como uma possibilidade de entender tais mudanças, uma vez que a configuração e arranjo dos ambientes na paisagem são determinados por algoritmos analíticos e não por processos biológicos e físicos...
An Entropic Approach to Technology Enable Learning and Social Computing
Alves, Vitor; Miranda, José; Dawa, Hossam; Fernandes, Filipe; Pombal, Fernanda; Ribeiro, Jorge; Fdez-Riverola, Florentino; Analide, CesarUnderstanding one’s own behavior is challenging in itself; understanding a group of different individuals and the many relationships between these individuals is even more complex. Imagine the amazing complexity of a large system made up of thousands of individuals and hundreds of groups, with countless relationships between those individuals and groups. However, despite this difficulty, organizations must be m...
