Introduction: This study aimed to compare the 3-year rates of local recurrence (LR) and overall survival (OS) for open (OPEN) and laparoscopic (LAP) surgeries in a Portuguese registry. Material and Methods: This observational study included patients who underwent rectal cancer resection performed in 16 hospitals between July 2014 and December 2019. The radiologic staging and the specimen images of the first thr...
Background and Aims: Hepatic steatosis is very frequent in thegeneral population, mostly associated with obesity and insulinresistance. Typical dietary patterns have been difficult to identifywith controversial information. We aimed to estimate in a represen-tative sample of the Portuguese adult population, what was thecontribution of the dietary pattern in what concerns macronutrientsand food groups for the pr...
Background and Aims: Fatty liver is very frequent in the general population. Although many studies evaluated the prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease there is scarce information regarding alcoholic fatty liver. We aimed to estimate the prevalence of alcoholic hepatic steatosis, and to what extent it depended on obesity and its interaction.
Asthma and rhinitis have a complex etiology, depending on multiple genetic and environmental risk factors. An increasing number of susceptibility genes are currently being identified, but the majority of reported associations have not been consistently replicated across populations of different genetic backgrounds.
Depending on the final application envisaged for a given biomaterial, many surfaces must be modified before use. The material performance in a biological environment is mainly mediated by its surface properties that can be improved using suitable modification methods. The aim of this work was to coat poly(dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS) surfaces with biosurfactants (BSs) and to evaluate how these compounds affect the...
