Non-sponsored brand-related user-generated content: Effects and mechanisms of c...

Purpose – The current study investigates whether users’ engagement with the social media platform is affected as they engage in non-sponsored brand-related user-generated content (UGC). The concept of non-sponsored brand-related UGC encapsulates various social media patterns in which individuals choose how to consume, contribute or create brand related content with no formal brand incentive or control. Design/m...

Metabolomics and transcriptomics to decipher molecular mechanisms underlying ec...

Mycorrhizas are known to have a positive impact on plant growth and ability to resist major biotic and abiotic stresses. However, the metabolic alterations underlying mycorrhizal symbiosis are still understudied. By using metabolomics and transcriptomics approaches, cork oak roots colonized by the ectomycorrhizal fungus Pisolithus tinctorius were compared with non-colonized roots. Results show that compounds pu...

Laser surface texturing of Ti-6Al-4V by nanosecond laser: Surface characterizat...

The development of smart biomedical implants with intrinsic communication system between sensors and actuators, or between implant and patient, remains a challenge for scientific community. Titanium and its alloys, especially Ti6Al4V, are the most used materials in the implant's fabrication. The present work is concerned with implant internal communication printing process and presents a detailed study on titan...

Crescimento de genótipos de feijão-caupi irrigados com água salina

O feijão-caupi tem grande importância socioeconômica, pois é um componente da dieta alimentar, especialmente pelo seu valor nutritivo e fonte de renda para agricultura familiar. Entretanto é uma cultura sensível a salinidade da água de irrigação e solo, o que impossibilita o cultivo em áreas afetadas por sais. Neste sentido, objetivou-se com o trabalho avaliar o crescimento de genótipos de feijão-caupi irrigado...

Nursing care in gastric dilatation in dogs

Gastric Dilatation is a potentially fatal gastrointestinal pathology caused by aerophagy. It is mainly caused by rapid consumption of food, excitation or exercising near the time of feeding, which promotes the entrance of air into the stomach (Robbins et al, 2011). With this work we aim to emphasize the care given by veterinary nurses in this pathology.

Cuidados de enfermagem em timpanismo

O timpanismo ruminal designa-se pela acumulação excessiva de gases e por vezes fluidos no retículo-rúmen, incapazes de serem eliminados pelo organismo, o que resulta no aumento anormal do abdómen (Radostits et al, 2007). Afecta ruminantes e é uma situação que pode desenvolver-se rapidamente e pôr em risco a vida do animal (Streeter, 2009). Este estudo sintetiza a etiologia, o diagnóstico, o tratamento e aconsel...

Pulmonary and subcutaneos emphysema

Emphysema is an accumulation of air quite frequent in dogs, being the Pekingese the most susceptible breed. Given the lack of collateral ventilation, horses, cattle, sheep and pigs are also susceptible to this condition (Porter et al., 2011). The main objective of this work is to highlight the care that should be given by veterinary nurses to emphysematous patients.
