Aneurysmal Degeneration of the Brachial Artery after Vascular Access Creation: ...

True peripheral artery aneurysms proximal to a longstanding arteriovenous fistula is a well-recognized complication. Late aneurysmal degeneration is rare. This study analyzed the characteristics, therapeutic options, and outcomes of true donor brachial artery aneurysms (DBAA) after arteriovenous fistula (AVF) for hemodialysis. We retrospectively collected the data of patients with DBAA after AVF creation, surgi...

The Congolobe project, a multidisciplinary study of Congo deep-sea fan lobe com...

The presently active region of the Congo deep-sea fan (around 330,000 km(2)), called the terminal lobes or lobe complex, covers an area of 2500 km(2) at 4700-5100 m water depth and 750-800 km offshore. It is a unique sedimentary area in the world ocean fed by a submarine canyon and a channel-levee system which presently deliver large amounts of organic carbon originating from the Congo River by turbidity curren...

Ciprofloxacin wastewater treated by UVA photocatalysis: Contribution of irradia...

Photocatalysis has become an attractive process to treat wastewater since it allows a rapid and efficient degradation of micropollutants in water. A solution of ciprofloxacin (CIP) was photocatalytically treated by ultraviolet A light (UVA) and titanium dioxide (TiO2) or zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles. Toxicity of CIP and of the treated CIP solutions, as well as the toxicity of TiO2 and ZnO irradiated nanoparti...

Drug-drug interactions and risk factors of interactions in oncology

Drug-Drug interactions (DDI’s) are a frequent occurrence in clinical practice and in particular in oncology. Cancer patients are assumed as a risk group, mainly due to the high number of drugs related, as well as the changes inherent in the cancer context. In the context of cancer, the studies on DDI's in oncology are reduced in number, presenting incidences ranging from 12% to 63%, depending on the type of pop...

O contributo da reconciliação terapêutica para a utilização segura e eficaz de ...

Os erros de medicação apresentam-se como uma importante causa de eventos adversos em pacientes hospitalizados, nomeadamente em momentos de transição de cuidados de saúde, tendo acrescidos custos significativos e implicações para a saúde e bem-estar dos pacientes. A reconciliação terapêutica tem sido reconhecida como um processo importante nos momentos de transição de cuidados de saúde para evitar erros de medic...

Bioremediation of an Iron-Rich mine effluent by Lemna minor

Contamination of water resources by mine effluents is a serious environmental problem. In a old coal mine, in the north of Portugal (São Pedro da Cova, Gondoma),forty years after the activity has ended, a neutral mine drainage, rich in iron (FE) it stills being produced and it is continuously released in local streams (Ribeiro de Murta e Rio Ferreira) and in surrounding lands. The species Lemna minor has been s...
