Seroprevalence of antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 among health care workers in a ...

"Background: Health care workers (HCW) are presumably exposed to a higher risk of infection by SARS-CoV-2 and could possibly represent a source of transmission to susceptible patients. Thus, characterization of SARS-CoV-2 infection among HCW is necessary to better understand the determinants of viral transmission and properly implement strategies to prevent dissemination and protect HCW and vulnerable patients....

Dynamics of a Dual SARS-CoV-2 Lineage Co-Infection on a Prolonged Viral Sheddin...

A few molecularly proven severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) cases of symptomatic reinfection are currently known worldwide, with a resolved first infection followed by a second infection after a 48 to 142-day intervening period. We report a multiple-component study of a clinically severe and prolonged viral shedding coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) case in a 17-year-old Portuguese f...

Mononeuritis multiplex: an uncommon neurological manifestation of cytomegalovir...

BACKGROUND: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivation with neurological involvement in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is increasingly rare since the introduction of antiretroviral therapy (ART). Manifestations include encephalitis, myelitis, polyradiculopathy and, less commonly, mononeuritis multiplex (MNM). We report a case of disseminated CMV disease with gastrointestinal and peripheral and ...

Estrutura e dinâmica do tecido ósseo

O tecido ósseo é uma forma especializada de tecido conjuntivo constituído por uma fase mineral, formada essencialmente por cristais de fosfato de cálcio, sob a forma de hidroxiapatite, que assenta numa organizada matriz colagénica. A combinação da fase mineral e da fase orgânica confere ao tecido ósseo propriedades únicas, que o tornam muito resistente às solicitações mecânicas. Apesar seu aspeto aparentemente ...

Assessment of anthropogenic sources of water pollution using multivariate stati...

Multivariate statistical techniques were applied to evaluate spatial/temporal variations, and to interpret water quality data set obtained at Alqueva reservoir (south of Portugal). The water quality was monitored at nine different sites, along the water line, over a period of 18 months (from January 2006 to May 2007) using 26 water quality parameters. The cluster analysis allowed the formation of five different...
