Are victims also judged more positively if they say their lives are just?
Alves, H. V.; Breyner, M. M.; Nunes, S. F.; Pereira, B. D.; Silva, L. F.; Soares, J. G.Non-victims who express high versus low personal belief in a just world (PBJW) are judged as having more social value, both social utility (i.e., market value) and social desirability (i.e., affective value). Our goal was to test whether this pattern differed when the targets were presented as innocent or noninnocent victims of enduring suffering. A hundred and eighty-six participants of both sexes took part in...
Correlation between total nitrite/nitrate concentrations and monoamine oxidase ...
Nunes, S. F.; Figueiredo, I. V.; Pereira, J. S.; Lopes, M. C.; Caramona, MargaridaThe aim of this study was to determine the correlation between total nitrite/nitrate concentrations (NOx) and the kinetic parameters of monoamine oxidase enzymes (MAO-A and MAO-B) and semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO) in human mesenteric arteries. Arteries were from non-diabetic and type 2 diabetic patients with sigmoid or rectum carcinoma for whom surgery was the first option and who were not expose...
Monoamine oxidase and semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase kinetic analysis in...
Nunes, S. F.; Figueiredo, I. V.; Pereira, João; Lemos, E. T.; Reis, F.; Teixeira, F.; Caramona, M. M.Monoamine oxidase (MAO, type A and B) and semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO) metabolize biogenic amines, however, the impact of these enzymes in arteries from patients with type 2 diabetes remains poorly understood. We investigated the kinetic parameters of the enzymes to establish putative correlations with noradrenaline (NA) content and patient age in human mesenteric arteries from type 2 diabetic p...
