This study examines the external and internal intensity profiles of male and female participants during a WF tournament, addressing a gap in research on game demands and induced load. Methods: The study involved 176 players aged 50 + participating in a 4...
Progesterone and brassinosteroids synergistically enhance progesterone removal ...
Pinto, A; da Silva, DC; Cardoso, A; Fernandes, F; Soares, C; Patricia Valentao; Fernanda Fidalgo; Jorge TeixeiraProgesterone (PROG) has been detected at various concentrations in the environment and has adverse effects on humans and wildlife. This work evaluated the impact of PROG in Solanum nigrum L. plants, its removal capacity, and how 2,4-epibrassinolide (24-EBL) affects this process. Three treatments were used: (1) control, (2) irrigation with 0.8 mu M PROG, and (3) treatment with 0.8 mu M PROG after a pre-treatment...
Burnout and coping strategies among Professors during COVID-19: Portugal-Brazil...
Pinto, A; Carvalho, C; Rodriguez, S; Simões, A; Carvalhais, C; Gonçalves, FJ; Santos, JThe global pandemic experienced in recent years led Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) to close their facilities to safeguard the health and safety of the academic community. This reality overloaded professors in terms of work, often leading them to the limit of exhaustion and impacting on their performance, quality of life and well-being, taking, in many cases, to burnout. This study aims to identify and cha...

Natural Protein Intake in Children with Phenylketonuria: Prescription vs. Actua...
Pinto, A; Daly, A; César Rocha, J; Ashmore, C; Evans, S; Ilgaz, F; Hickson, M; MacDonald, AIn phenylketonuria (PKU), an important component of the UK dietary management system is a 50 mg phenylalanine (Phe)/1 g protein exchange system used to allocate the Phe/natural protein intakes according to individual patient tolerance. Any foods containing protein ≤ 0.5 g/100 g or fruits/vegetables containing Phe ≤ 75 mg/100 g are allowed without measurement or limit. In children with PKU, we aimed to assess th...
Prevalence and Characteristics of Osteochondrosis in Lusitano Purebred Horses
Coelho Ramos, AS; Pinto, A; Crespo, J; Marques, JP; Bettencourt, E; Gama, LT; Monteiro, SObjectives: This is the first comprehensive study in Lusitanos that aims to study the radiographic prevalence and localisation of osteochondrosis in different joints. Methods: A radiographic protocol of the metacarpo/ metatarsophalangeal, tarsocrural and femoropatellar joints was done in 302 Lusitanos, and findings were clas- sified using a 0-4 scale: 0 - normal joint contours; 1 – minimal (minimal and smooth f...

The Impact of the Quality of Nutrition and Lifestyle in the Reproductive Years ...
Gama, MI; Pinto, A; Daly, A; César Rocha, J; MacDonald, AA woman's nutritional status before and during pregnancy can affect the health of her progeny. Phenylketonuria (PKU), a rare disorder causing high blood and brain phenylalanine (Phe) concentrations, is associated with neurocognitive disability. Lifelong treatment is mainly dietetic with a Phe-restricted diet, supplemented with a low-Phe protein substitute. Treatment adherence commonly decreases in adolescence, ...
Suitability and Allocation of Protein-Containing Foods According to Protein Tol...
Gama, MI; Adam, S; Adams, S; Allen, H; Ashmore, C; Bailey, S; Cochrane, B; Dale, C; Daly, A; De Sousa, G; Donald, S; Dunlop, C; Ellerton, C; Evans, SIntroduction: There is little practical guidance about suitable food choices for higher natural protein tolerances in patients with phenylketonuria (PKU). This is particularly important to consider with the introduction of adjunct pharmaceutical treatments that may improve protein tolerance. Aim: To develop a set of guidelines for the introduction of higher protein foods into the diets of patients with PKU who ...
Acetalization of glycerol over silicotungstic acid supported in silica
Castanheiro, J; Pinto, A; Lopes, ME; Santos, FIThe acetalization of glycerol with butanal was carried out in the presence of silicotungstic acid (HSiW) immobilized in silica, by sol-gel technique, at 70ºC. The products of glycerol acetalization with butanal were (Z + E)-(2-propyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl) methanol and (Z + E)-2-propyl-1,3-dioxan-5-ol. Catalysts with different amount of HSiW were prepared. The catalysts were characterized by FTIR, XRD, ICP and N2 a...
