As Inquirições Gerais são um tema de grande relevância para o estudo da história política, social e económica em Portugal. Realizadas entre 1220 e 1343, ao longo dos reinados de Afonso II, Afonso III, Dinis e Afonso IV, tiveram propósitos diferentes consoante o rei que as ordenou. Foi sobretudo através desse processo de averiguação régia que ganhou corpo, de forma contundente, uma política executada a partir de...
© 2022 American Academy of Neurology; Background and objectives: Declines in stroke admission, IV thrombolysis (IVT), and mechanical thrombectomy volumes were reported during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. There is a paucity of data on the longer-term effect of the pandemic on stroke volumes over the course of a year and through the second wave of the pandemic. We sought to measure the effect of the C...
Nos dias que correm, os sistemas inteligentes são progressivamente mais comuns e a sua integração na vida do ser Humano tem um impacto bastante positivo no seu quotidiano. Uma das maneiras imprescindíveis para tal começa na nossa própria casa ao torná-la inteligente. Ao abrigo do conceito de Smart Home, implementou-se um protótipo automatizado composto por um estore (prova de conceito) sinalizado por luzes LED,...
Escherichia coli represents the main cause of diarrhoea in pigs. Saliva can provide information about the pathophysiology of diseases and be a source of biomarkers. We aimed to identify changes in the salivary proteome of pigs with diarrhoea caused by E. coli. Saliva samples were collected from 10 pigs with this disease and 10 matched healthy controls. SDS-PAGE (1DE) and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DE...
Introduction: Since the publication of endovascular treatment trials and European Stroke Guidelines, Portugal has re-organized stroke healthcare. The nine centers performing endovascular treatment are not equally distributed within the country, which may lead to differential access to endovascular treatment. Our main aim was to perform a descriptive analysis of the main treatment metrics regarding endovascular ...
Archaeological excavations conducted in Quinta do Almaraz (Almada, Portugal) between 1986 and 2001 have allowed to identify a settlement with an important Iron Age occupation. These interventions provided a large assemblage of faunal remains and its study has enabled a detailed analysis of the diet, lifestyle, and habits of the people who lived in Almaraz during the 1st millennium B.C. The most abundant mammal ...

Several polymers are researched for tendon repair as polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polylactic acid (PLA). These are biocompatible and useful in scaffolding repair though with minimal success due to long-term failure. There is a need to improve such scaffolds' design and physical–chemical nature. This work concerns surface functionalization of polymeric braids (PET and PLA) that fulfill the high mechanica...
