Iliopsoas Grade 2 Myotendinous Junction Injury in an Elite Football Player: Ret...
Fernandes, A; Cunha, P; Silva, J; Duarte, C; Estaca, A; Bettencourt, M; Reis e Silva, MGroin pain is a common injury in professional footbal and widely acknowledged as a complex medical issue. Iliopsoas pathology stands as the second‐most common cause of athletic groin injury, yet iliopsoas traumatic muscle injuries are infrequent and inadequately documented in the literature. This case report outlines a grade 2 myotendinous junction injury of the iliopsoas in a football player competing in the P...

Return to Play After the Diagnosis of Reactive Arthritis in a Professional Foot...
Fernandes, A; Cunha, P; Pinto, J; Duarte, C; Estaca, A; Pereira, T; Bettencourt, M; e Silva, MR; Fernandes, SIn professional football, most of the injuries are traumatic; however, these athletes may suffer from rheumatologic diseases, that may present as sports-related injuries. Reactive arthritis (ReA) is classified as a sub-group of the spondyloarthritis family and is relatively rare. In this article, we highlight the successful return to play (RTP) process after the ReA diagnosis in an elite football player in the ...
Validation of a Heart Failure Risk Score in a Cohort of Cardiac Resynchronizati...
Cardoso, I; Cunha, P; Laranjo, S; Grazina, A; Viegas, J; Portugal, G; Valente, B; Lousinha, A; Brás, P; Brás, M; Cruz Ferreira, R; Oliveira, MThe heart failure risk status (HFRS) is a validated dynamic tool for risk score prediction, based on the TriageHF™ algorithm (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA), for the occurrence of a heart failure (HF) event in the 30 days following a remote monitoring (RM) transmission. The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of the HFRS in predicting an unplanned hospital admission due to HF decompensation in a re...
Exhaled breath condensate pH determinants in school-aged children: A population...
Tiago Rama; Paciencia, I; Rufo, JC; Silva, D; Cunha, P; Severo, M; Padrão, Patrícia; Moreira, Pedro; Delgado, L; Moreira, AndréBackground Exhaled breath condensate (EBC) pH is a promising biomarker of airway inflammation. Lack of method standardization and interstudy variability precludes its use in clinical practice. While endogenous determinants have been described, underlying mechanisms for variability are mostly unknown. Thus, we aimed to assess the association between asthma and EBC pH in children, while studying potential environ...
A cross-sectional study of the impact of school neighbourhood on children obesi...
Paciência, I; Cavaleiro Rufo, J; Mendes, F; Farraia, M; Cunha, P; Silva, D; Delgado, L; Padrão, Patrícia; Moreira, Pedro; Moreira, AndréSchools' neighbourhoods provide an important environmental context that may influence the risk of obesity among children. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of neighbourhood surrounding schools on obesity and body composition in schoolchildren. Data on 845 children aged 7 to 12 years old from 20 primary schools were considered. Anthropometric measurements and bioelectrical impedance analysis were pe...
The Influence of Eating at Home on Dietary Diversity and Airway Inflammation in...
de Castro Mendes, F; Cunha, P; Paciencia, I; Rufo, JC; Farraia, M; Silva, D; Padrão, Patrícia; Delgado, L; Moreira, André; Moreira, PedroConsidering the negative impact of a lack of dietary diversity on children's nutritional status, we aimed to describe dietary variety according to eating at home frequency and assessed its association with respiratory outcomes in school-aged children. This cross-sectional study included 590 children (49% girls) aged 7 to 12 years from 20 public schools located in city of Porto, Portugal. Daily frequency of eati...

de Castro, Mendes, F; Paciência, I; Cavaleiro Rufo, J; Silva, D; Cunha, P; Farraia, M; Delgado, L; Garcia-Larsen, V; Severo, M; Moreira, A; Moreira, PBackground: Inhalation of fine particulate matter (PM) can cause systematic inflammation and oxidative stress, which may further aggravate the development and progression of asthma. Although nutritional intake of fatty acids and antioxidants may attenuate some effects of fine PM, the role of the inflammatory potential of diet has not been addressed. Therefore, we aimed to investigate possible modulatory effects...
