Chronotype, Time of Day, and Children's Cognitive Performance in Remote Neurops...
Bettencourt, Catarina; Pires, Luís Miguel; Almeida, Filipa; Vilar, Manuela; Cruz, Hugo; Leitão, José; Gomes, Ana AllenResearch on the influence of chronotype and time of day (TOD) on cognitive performance, especially in children, is limited. We explored potential interactive effects, hypothesizing that performance differs when comparing preferred vs. non-preferred TOD. In total, 76 morning-type (MT = 37) or evening-type (ET = 39) children from the third and fourth grades (48.7% girls; M age = 8.05; SD age = 0.51), identified t...
Genomic and Epigenetic Advances in Focal Cortical Dysplasia Types I and II: A S...
Jesus-Ribeiro, Joana; Pires, Luís Miguel; Melo, João Daniel; Ribeiro, Ilda Patrícia; Rebelo, Olinda; Sales, Francisco; Freire, AntónioIntroduction: Focal cortical dysplasias (FCDs) are a group of malformations of cortical development that constitute a common cause of drug-resistant epilepsy, often subjected to neurosurgery, with a suboptimal long-term outcome. The past few years have witnessed a dramatic leap in our understanding of the molecular basis of FCD. This study aimed to provide an updated review on the genomic and epigenetic advance...
Copy number variants prioritization after array-CGH analysis - a cohort of 1000...
Carreira, Isabel Marques; Ferreira, Susana Isabel; Matoso, Eunice; Pires, Luís Miguel; Ferrão, José; Jardim, Ana; Mascarenhas, Alexandra; Pinto, MartaBackground: Array-based comparative genomic hybridization has been assumed to be the first genetic test offered to detect genomic imbalances in patients with unexplained intellectual disability with or without dysmorphisms, multiple congenital anomalies, learning difficulties and autism spectrum disorders. Our study contributes to the genotype/phenotype correlation with the delineation of laboratory criteria wh...
