Exploring the potential of dichloroacetate in targeting oral cancer metabolism
Teixeira, João; Cunha, Andrea; A. Silva, Patrícia M.Background: Oral cancer represents a significant global health burden, and its incidence is steadily rising [1]. A hallmark of cancer is metabolic reprogramming - most notably, a shift toward aerobic glycolysis, commonly known as the Warburg effect. This altered metabolic phenotype supports rapid proliferation, enhances survival under hypoxic conditions, and contributes to resistance to conventional therapies. ...

A road map to find in 3D printing a new design plasticity for construction – Th...
Teixeira, João; Schaefer, Cecília Ogliari; Rangel, Bárbara; Maia, Lino; Alves, Jorge LinoRecent years are showing a rapid adoption of digital manufacturing techniques to the construction industry, with a focus on additive manufacturing. Although 3D printing for construction (3DPC) has notably advanced in recent years, publications on the subject are recent and date a growth in 2019, indicating that it is a promising technology as it enables greater efficiency with fair consumption of material, mini...
The problems of a visually impaired user in the process of buying fashion products
Teixeira, João; Cunha, Joana; Amaral, Inês Castro Vasconcelos MartinsIn today’s society, sight is the most relevant sense, as we rely heavily on it to gather information from the external environment (Davidoff 2001). However, given the high rate of ageing of the population, we often speak of users with visual impairment (Baker et al. 2002). The world of fashion is critical for the visually impaired user, namely in his socialization process, however, since we live in a contempora...
Avaliação das condições de manipulação de citotóxicos em serviços farmacêuticos...
Silva, Beatriz; Teixeira, João; Trindade, Joana; Madureira, Alexandra; Moreira, Fernando; Santos, MarleneAs atividades citostática, mutagénica e teratogénica dos fármacos citotóxicos colocam estes fármacos num patamar potencialmente perigoso para os profissionais que os manipulam e administram. Desta forma, avaliar a segurança e os riscos da exposição na manipulação, padronizar e uniformizar procedimentos, e adquirir boas práticas de utilização de equipamentos de proteção coletiva, equipamentos de proteção individ...
Economic and financial model to the mass‐rearing of Macrolophus pygmaeus (Rambu...
Dutra, Tiago M.; Batista, Maria Da Graça; Teixeira, João; Todorova, Silvia; Oliveira, Luísa; Tavares, João; Borges, Isabel; Soares, António O.ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND - Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) is a major pest of tomato produced in glasshouses and open field, causing severe damages to crops, reducing the quality of tomato fruits. The current maintenance of the pest populations below the economic threshold is not achieved by natural and classical control, thus requiring the continuous application of biological control agents (BCAs), under an augmentative o...
Following the Alphabet... For the Diagnosis of an Acute Hepatitis E: Case Report
Janeiro, Cláudia; Simões, Guilherme; Santos, Rita; Teixeira, João; Vale, LuisClassically viral hepatitis is associated with the virus of A,B and C hepatitis or it can be caused by other viruses. Eventhough it is not endemic in Portugal, authors report a sporadiccase of a patient with the diagnosis of acute hepatitis whichcame to be revealed as an acute hepatitis E. With this reportauthors want to show a rare cause of acute hepatitis, whosediagnosis should be considered after the exclusi...
Influence of supplementary cementitious materials on fresh properties of 3D pri...
Teixeira, João; Schaefer, Cecília Ogliari; Maia, Lino; Rangel, Bárbara; Neto, Rui; Alves, Jorge LinoThe development of printers and materials for 3D Printing Construction during the last two decades has allowed the construction of increasingly complex projects. Some of them have broken construction speed records due to the simplification of the construction process, particularly in non-standard geometries. However, for performance and security reasons the materials used had considerable amounts of Portland ce...
