Acute Urinary Retention and Menstrual Cup Use: Case Report

This case report of acute urinary retention describes a triggered by lower urinary tract infection and simultaneous menstrual cup use and the need to specifically question the use of a menstrual cup in women of childbearing age. The anatomical proximity of the bladder and ureters, combined with the thinness and plasticity of the vaginal, wall caused the bladder of the patient to become entrapped in the menstrua...

I Congresso Infantojuvenil do Município de Gondomar - Livro de Resumos

O Observatório do Desporto Infantojuvenil do Município de Gondomar tem como objetivo utilizar a investigação e a proximidade com a comunidade enquanto estratégias basilares para que existam experiências desportivas mais positivas. Não obstante, detetam-se diversos desafios na realidade atual. Presentemente, verifica-se que (a) apenas realizar ações de formação sobre o desenvolvimento de jovens é insuficiente pa...

A dataset of acoustic measurements from soundscapes collected worldwide during ...

Political responses to the COVID-19 pandemic led to changes in city soundscapes around the globe. From March to October 2020, a consortium of 261 contributors from 35 countries brought together by the Silent Cities project built a unique soundscape recordings collection to report on local acoustic changes in urban areas. We present this collection here, along with metadata including observational descriptions o...

KPC-3-, GES-5-, and VIM-1-Producing Enterobacterales Isolated from Urban Ponds

Carbapenems are antibiotics of pivotal importance in human medicine, the efficacy of which is threatened by the increasing prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE). Urban ponds may be reservoirs of CRE, although this hypothesis has been poorly explored. We assessed the proportion of CRE in urban ponds over a one-year period and retrieved 23 isolates. These were submitted to BOX-PCR, PFGE, 16S r...

MAMMALS IN PORTUGAL: A data set of terrestrial, volant, and marine mammal occur...

Mammals are threatened worldwide, with 26% of all species being included in the IUCN threatened categories. This overall pattern is primarily associated with habitat loss or degradation, and human persecution for terrestrial mam mals, and pollution, open net fishing, climate change, and prey depletion for marine mammals. Mammals play a key role in maintaining ecosystems func tionality and resilience, and theref...

A Cellular Automata Model for Integrated Simulation of Land Use and Transport I...

Cellular automata (CA) models have been used in urban studies for dealing with land use change. Transport and accessibility are arguably the main drivers of urban change and have a direct influence on land use. Land use and transport interaction models deal with the complexity of this relationship using many different approaches. CA models incorporate these drivers, but usually consider transport (and accessibi...

Open Science Laboratory for Manufacturing: an education tool to contribute to s...

This paper presents a Cyber Physical System (CPS) laboratory based on Open Design, called Open Science Laboratory for Manufacturing (OSLab4Man), with educational and research purpose and the potential contribute and (direct and indirect) effects regarding the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). A short introduction describing the 17 SDG, the education for sustainability role, and the relevance of the frame...
