Texture analysis is an umbrella term for multiple image analysis techniques that quantify and characterize the distribution of the image’s gray levels. It has a natural application in biomedical image analysis, where texture-based techniques are increasingly being incorporated into neuroimaging research. In this chapter, the role of texture analysis in the field of neuroimaging is addressed. Neuroimaging applic...
No Santuário de Nossa Senhora da Lapa foi descoberta uma escultura feminina com manto, cujo percurso tem sido atribulado. Neste momento, encontra-se no Museu Arqueológico do Alto Paiva. Neste artigo relatamos o percurso recente desta escultura e apresentamos as hipóteses associadas a um possível Santuário, com raízes pré-romanas.
A transição agroecológica pretende responder ao paradigma de adequar a capacidade produtiva dos sistemas agrícolas à crescente necessidade de disponibilizar alimentos seguros e saudáveis, sem comprometer os recursos naturais, os processos ecológicos e a biodiversidade.

Early-life exposure to air pollutants, including ozone (O3), particulate matter (PM2.5 or PM10, depending on diameter of particles), nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and sulfur dioxide (SO2) has been suggested to contribute to the etiology of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). In this study, we used air quality monitoring data to examine whether mothers of children with ASD were exposed to high levels of air pollutants duri...
Introduction: Accurate prevalence estimates for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) are fundamental to adequately program medical and educational resources for children. However, estimates vary globally and across Europe, and it is therefore wise to conduct epidemiological studies in defined geo-cultural contexts. Methods: We used a population screening approach to estimate the prevalence of ASD in the Centro region...
