Life Águeda – Restoring River Connectivity For Migratory Fish In The Vouga Rive...
Pedro, S.; Alexandre, CM; Mateus, CS; Quintella, BR; Boavida-Portugal, J; Lança, M.J.; Belo, AF; Pereira, E; Rato, AS; Oliveira, IC; Silva, SPresentation of the results of the work carried out on this subject in the Vouga River basin
An acclimatization period in a cage promotes site fidelity of hatchery-reared d...
Silva, AF; Castro, JJ; Pereira, E; Marques, JP; Silva, T; Lino, PG; Candeias-Mendes, A; Pousão-Ferreira, P; Pinto, B; Costa, JL; Almeida, PRThe influence of an in-situ acclimatization period of five weeks, seeking the settlement and fidelity of hatchery-reared dusky groupers (Epinephelus marginatus) to the release sites in restocking actions, was tested using acoustic biotelemetry. Eight tagged adult groupers were submitted to the wild conditions in a fish farm cage, while seven remained in the hatchery and tagging location until they were all rele...
Legacy Mercury Re-emission and Subsurface Migration at Contaminated Sites Const...
Zhu, W; Li, ZG; Li, P; Sommar, J; Fu, XW; Feng, XB; Yu, B; Zhang, W; Reis, AT; Pereira, EThe re-emission and subsurface migration of legacy mercury (Hg) are not well understood due to limited knowledge of the driving processes. To investigate these processes at a decommissioned chlor-alkali plant, we used mercury stable isotopes and chemical speciation analysis. The isotopic composition of volatilized Hg(0) was lighter compared to the bulk total Hg (THg) pool in salt-sludge and adjacent surface soi...
A Zero-Shot Learning Approach for Task Allocation Optimization in Cyber-Physica...
Pereira, E; Reis, J; Rosaldo J. F. Rossetti; Gil Manuel GonçalvesThe design and reorganization of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs) faces challenges due to the growing number of interconnected devices. To effectively handle disruptions and improve performance, rapid CPS design and development is crucial. The Task Resources Estimator and Allocation Optimizer (TREAO) addresses these challenges, by simulating and optimizing the tasks assignment to the CPS machines, recommending sui...
A report on a survey among Portuguese Association of Interventional Cardiology ...
Costa, H; Vinhas, H; Calé, R; Pereira, E; Santos, J; Paulo, G; Jorge, E; Brochado, B; Melica, B; Baptista Gonçalves, R; Infante de Oliveira, EIntroduction and objectives: Concerns surrounding the consequences of ionizing radiation (IR) have increased in interventional cardiology (IC). Despite this, the ever-growing complexity of diseases as well as procedures can lead to greater exposure to radiation. The aim of this survey, led by Portuguese Association of Interventional Cardiology (APIC), was to evaluate the level of awareness and current practices...
Integrated Use of Bioaccumulation, Genotoxic, and Haematological Endpoints to A...
Mieiro, CL; Coelho, JP; Reis, AT; Castro, D; Figueira, P; Martinho, F; Pardal, MA; Pereira, E; Pacheco, M; Lopes, CBBiosorption successfully remediates saline water contaminated with legacy contaminants, but its effects on the health of marine organisms remain unclear. Therefore, our aim was to address this knowledge gap with data on the accumulation ability, as well as the cytogenetic and biochemical effects in turbot (Scophthalmus maximus). To this end, we exposed turbot for seven days to a mixture of remediated metals (Re...
In Vitro Hepatotoxic and Neurotoxic Effects of Titanium and Cerium Dioxide Nano...
Rosário, F; Costa, C; Lopes, CB; Estrada, AC; Tavares, DS; Pereira, E; Teixeira, JP; Reis, ATConsidering the increasing emergence of new contaminants, such as nanomaterials, mixing with legacy contaminants, including metal(loid)s, it becomes imperative to understand the toxic profile resulting from these interactions. This work aimed at assessing and comparing the individual and combined hepatotoxic and neurotoxic potential of titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs 0.75–75 mg/L), cerium oxide nanopar...
Influence of Human Milk on Very Preterms' Gut Microbiota and Alkaline Phosphata...
Morais, J; Marques, C; Faria, A; Teixeira, D; Barreiros-Mota, I; Durão, C; Araújo, J; Ismael, S; Brito, S; Cardoso, M; Macedo, I; Pereira, E; Tomé, TThe FEEDMI Study (NCT03663556) evaluated the influence of infant feeding (mother's own milk (MOM), donor human milk (DHM) and formula) on the fecal microbiota composition and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity in extremely and very preterm infants (≤32 gestational weeks). In this observational study, preterm infants were recruited within the first 24 h after birth. Meconium and fecal samples were collected at ...

In this observational study, preterm infants were recruited within the first 24 h after birth. Meconium and fecal samples were collected at ...
Extremely preterm neonates have more Lactobacillus in meconium than very preter...
Morais, J; Marques, C; Teixeira, D; Durão, C; Faria, A; Brito, S; Cardoso, M; Macedo, I; Pereira, E; Tomé, T; Calhau, CGrowing evidence suggests that maternal microbiota can influence the neonates’ gut colonization. However, the mechanisms of vertical bacterial transmission remain poorly defined. We believed that the first colonizers of the newborn come from the mother’s gut and vagina during pregnancy and that this is independent of the mode of delivery. We conducted an observational longitudinal study to evaluate the link bet...
