Nature-based interventions using technology for health: a scoping review
Moreira, Tiago; Simões de Almeida, RaquelBackground: nature-based interventions are generally recognized for their ability to improve health and wellbeing. Objectives: this scoping review maps the evidence on the use of technology to enhance nature-based interventions, examining various digital tools and their impact on maximizing the benefits of nature-based experiences. Methodology: a scoping review was carried out following the PRISMA ScR guideline...
Post-Activation Potentiation Enhancement of Countermovement Jump Performance us...
Peixoto, Rafael; Canário-Lemos, Rui; Moreira, Tiago; Vilela, Guilherme; Chaves, Gabriela Lucas; Aidar, Felipe José; Casanova, Filipe; Monteiro, GabrielaPost-activation performance enhancement (PAPE) refers to the temporary improvement in physical abilities resulting from a previous conditioning activity (CA), and velocity-based resistance training has been proposed to optimise PAPE. The present study aimed to evaluate the optimal rest interval to induce PAPE in the countermovement jump using heavy parallel squats monitored by the velocity loss (VL) threshold. ...
Drop set versus traditional strength training protocols equated in volume on mu...
Vilaça-Alves, José; Brito, João; Machado, Beatriz; Canário-Lemos, Rui; Moreira, Tiago; Matos, Filipe; Peixoto, Rafael; Monteiro, Gabriéla; Garrido, NunoPurpose The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of two strength training protocols, equated in volume, on the elbow flexor muscle thickness (MT) in women. Methods Twenty-seven women (mean±sd, age 21.89±2.85 years; stature,167.82±5.90 cm; body mass 63.01±7.20 kg; estimate of body fat mass, 19.19±2.88%) were divided in three experimental groups: a drop-set (DS), a traditional (TR), and a control grou...

Para além disso, verifica-se que a comercialização de produtos alimentares à base de plantas tem vindo a aumentar, apresentando-se como alternativa aos...
Warfarin genetic biomarkers in VKORC1 and CYP2C9*2 genes: Advancing personalize...
Moreira, Tiago; Pereira, Eduarda; Costa, Inês F.; Sousa, António J.S.F.; Morais, Stephanie L.; Ferreira-Fernandes, Hygor; Pinto, Giovanny R.Background: The genetic variants of vitamin K epoxide reductase complex (VKORC1) and in the cytochrome CYP2C9*2 genes have been identified to influence the anticoagulant warfarin and influence its plasmatic levels. Therefore, the pharmacogenetic information on these genes is useful for reducing warfarin adverse reaction [1]. Objectives: This work addresses the development of disposable electrochemical genosenso...

New ruthenium-cyclopentadienyl complexes affect colorectal cancer hallmarks sho...
Brás, Ana Rita; Fernandes, Pedro; Moreira, Tiago; Morales-Sanfrutos, Julia; Sabidó, Eduard; Antunes, Alexandra M. M.; Valente, Andreia; Preto, AnaColorectal cancer (CRC) is among the most deadly cancers worldwide. Current therapeutic strategies have low success rates and several side effects. This relevant clinical problem requires the discovery of new and more effective therapeutic alternatives. Ruthenium drugs have arisen as one of the most promising metallodrugs, due to their high selectivity to cancer cells. In this work we studied, for the first tim...
The attitude of portuguese physical education teachers toward physical fitness
Marques, Adilson; Balsa, Diogo; Domingos, Marta; Cavalheiro, Rafael; Carreira, Tiago; Moreira, Tiago; Ribeiro, Tiago; Gouveia, Élvio R.In this study, we aimed to examine how Portuguese physical education teachers per ceive the development of physical fitness through fitness tests in schools. The participants were 764 Portuguese teachers teaching at middle-school and high-school levels. The Physical Education Teacher Attitudes Toward Fitness Tests Scale (PETAFTS) was used to collect the data. The means and confidence intervals for each attitude...

Avaliação da qualidade proteica de alimentos de origem vegetal disponíveis em P...
Motta, Carla; Diniz, Dalila; Moreira, Tiago; Santos, Mariana; Bento, Ana Cristina; Castanheira, IsabelEstudos têm demonstrado que uma alimentação de base vegetal está associada a diversos benefícios para a saúde, entre os quais a um equilíbrio do peso corporal, contribuindo no combate à obesidade. No entanto, e por existir um consumo reduzido de vegetais e leguminosas em Portugal, este estudo teve como objetivo caracterizar a qualidade proteica destes e de outros grupos de alimentos de base vegetal, como forma ...
