Tripeptides featuring dehydrophenylalanine and homophenylalanine: homo- versus ...

Over the years, our research group developed dehydrodipeptides N-capped with aromatic moieties as protease-resistant efficacious hydrogelators, affording self-assembled hydrogels at low (critical) concentrations. Dehydrotripeptides, with different dipeptide sequences and (D,L) stereochemistry, open a wider chemical space for the development of self-assembled soft nanomaterials. In this work, a small library of ...

Gestão de risco na reabilitação de uma mina de água

The main purpose of this research work was the application, “on site“, of general prevention principles.

KARYDAKIS FLAP ON SACROCOCCYGEAL PILONIDAL DISEASE: A BRIEF REVIEW AND DEPARTME...

Introduction: The sacrococcygeal pilonidal disease (SPD) represents a group of abscesses or sinuses with hairy content, occurring in the intergluteal cleft. Karydakis flap (KF) technique is based on the excision of SPD with a mobilized fasciocutaneous flap, with lateral suture lines. With this flap, by decreasing tension in the surgical wound, leads to less pain, faster recovery and, therefore, it reduces recur...

Reputation risk mitigation in investment strategies

We consider an investment model in which a firm decides to invest in the market, taking into account its future revenue and the possible occurrence of adverse events that may impact its reputation. The firm can buy an insurance contract at the investment time to mitigate reputation risk. The firm decides when to enter the market and the insurance strategy that maximizes its value. We consider three types of ins...

Exploração de moluscos no Garb al-Andalus: dados da Rua da Sé (Silves, Algarve)

A alimentação das populações do Algarve na época Almóada (sécs. XII-XIII) incluiu recursos malacológicos de origem marino-estuarina. A partir da análise dos invertebrados provenientes de uma intervenção arqueológica realizada no ano de 2018 em Silves, foram caracterizados aspetos desses recursos e da sua utilização pelas comunidades islâmicas. O estudo incidiu na identifi cação taxonómica dos materiais (+7 kg),...

Erro e Discrepância no Diagnóstico Radiológico

Discrepâncias entre relatórios dos exames da Radiologia e seus subsequentes desfechos nos pacientes não são necessariamente considerados erro ou má prática.  O desempenho, avaliado pelo relato e interpretação dos achados pelo especialista em Radiologia, pode não ser perfeito ou exímio, e algumas discrepâncias, ou mesmo erros, são inevitáveis. O erro ou discrepância, na interpretação e relato dos achados pelo es...

ARP Case Report nº 28: Encephalopathy Associated with Congenital Intrahepatic P...

A 78-year-old female patient was admitted to the emergency department of our institution with a history of psychomotor retardation, myoclonus and dysarthria, over the last 2 months. Her past medical history only included atrial fibrillation with a rapid ventricular response. The neurological examination confirmed the findings mentioned above and an electroencephalography was performed which showed the presence ...
