Innovative Learning in Undergraduate Medical Teaching: Perspective Based on Thi...
Rendas, António; Neuparth, Nuno; Carreiro-Martins, Pedro; Dores, Hélder; Oliveira, Beatriz; Costa, Teresa; Rosado-Pinto, Patrícia; Fonseca, MartaWe reviewed an innovative project in undergraduate medical education, which used problem-based learning and concept maps in pathophysiology teaching. We analyzed publications starting in 1995 and until 2024, to identify factors contributing to its continuity and impact, nationally and internationally.Problem-based learning was based on the methodology developed by Howard Barrows, a founder of the method. In 199...
Avaliação de idosos institucionalizados por espirometria e condensado brônquico...
Belo, Joana; Carreiro-Martins, Pedro; Papoila, Ana Luísa; Palmeiro, Teresa; Caires, Iolanda; Alves, Marta; Nogueira, Susana; Aguiar, Fátima; Mendes, AnaNo estudo geriátrico dos efeitos na saúde da qualidade do ar interior em lares da 3.ª idade de Portugal (GERIA) foi estabelecido como objetivo principal de estudar os efeitos da qualidade do ar interior (IAQ) de equipamentos residenciais para pessoas idosos (ERPI) na saúde respiratória de idosos institucionalizados. Um total de 269 idosos responderam a um questionário elaborado pela equipa de investigadores do ...
Profiling Persistent Asthma Phenotypes in Adolescents: A Longitudinal Diagnosti...
Amaral, Rita; Jácome, Cristina; Almeida, Rute; Pereira, Ana Margarida; Alves-Correia, Magna; Mendes, Sandra; Rodrigues, José Carlos CidraisWe aimed to identify persistent asthma phenotypes among adolescents and to evaluate longitudinally asthma-related outcomes across phenotypes. Adolescents (13-17 years) from the prospective, observational, and multicenter INSPIRERS studies, conducted in Portugal and Spain, were included (n = 162). Latent class analysis was applied to demographic, environmental, and clinical variables, collected at a baseline med...

Feasibility of a mobile app to improve inhaler adherence in real‐world patients...
Jácome, Cristina; Rute, Almeida; Amaral, Rita; Pereira, Ana Margarida; Vidal, Carmen; Freire, Sara Lopéz; Mendez Brea, Paula; Antolín- Amerigo, DarioInspirerMundi app aims to transform adherence into a positive experience through gamification and social support, while allowing objective monitoring of inhaler adherence. This study assessed the feasibility of the app in adolescents and adults with persistent asthma.
The potential role of peak nasal inspiratory flow to evaluate active sinonasal ...
Araújo-Martins, José; Brás-Geraldes, Carlos; Neuparth, NunoAlthough the pathophysiology of nasal polyposis is incompletely understood, rhinologists have seldom studied it with rhinomanometry or peak nasal inspiratory flow (PNIF) due to technical limitations and the perception that polyp size might impair reproducibility and the usefulness of recordings. The objective of this study is to assess how measures of rhinomanometry and PNIF relate to disease activity. Nineteen...
The impact of indoor air quality on respiratory health of older people living i...
Belo, Joana; Carreiro-Martins, Pedro; Papoila, Ana L.; Palmeiro, Teresa; Caires, Iolanda; Alves, Marta; Nogueira, Susana; Aguiar, Fátima; Mendes, AnaIn the Portuguese Geriatric Study of the Health Effects of Indoor Air Quality in Senior Nursing Homes, we aimed to evaluate the impact of indoor air contaminants on the respiratory symptoms and biomarkers in a sample of elderly living in nursing homes. A total of 269 elderly answered a health questionnaire, performed a spirometry and 150 out of these collected an exhaled breath condensate sample for pH and nitr...

Belo, Joana; Carreiro-Martins, Pedro; Papoila, Ana L.; Palmeiro, Teresa; Caires, Iolanda; Alves, Marta; Nogueira, Susana; Aguiar, Fátima; Mendes, AnaIn general, seven million deads are dur to the indoor and outdoor environment exposure. The elderly are identified as the one of the principal risk groups: the progressive decline of biological functions; cumulative environmental exposure; 90% of the time is in indoor spaces. The main goal of this study was to describe the impact of environmental exposure from the point of view of IAQ in respiratory health in a...
