Rama, TA; Morgado, JM; Henriques, A; Escribano, L; Alvarez-Twose, I; Sanchez-Muñoz, L; Moreira, A; Romão, J; Órfão, A; Matito, ABackground: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are frequently avoided in mastocytosis, because of a potential increased risk for drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs) due to inhibition of cyclo-oxygenase (COX), subsequent depletion of prostaglandin E2 and release of leukotrienes. Objectives: Here, we aimed at determining the prevalence of mast cell (MC) mediator release symptoms triggered by NSAIDs ...
Até onde irá o Terreno Finisterra? Proposta de correlação com os “Terrenos” Var...
Moreira, Noel; Dias, R; Ribeiro, A; Romão, J; Pedro, J; Noronha, FO Maciço Ibérico foi subdividido num conjunto de terrenos tectonoestra tigráficos com características próprias, entre os quais os Terrenos Finisterra (TF) e Ibérico (TI).

Crustal stretching process denounced by mafic magmatism in the Finisterra Terra...
Moreira, Noel; Noronha, F; Pedro, J; Romão, J; Dias, R; Sousa, M; Ribeiro, A; Roseiro, JoséThe occurrence of a new tectono-stratigraphic terrane (Finisterra Terrane), located in the westernmost domains of the Porto-Tomar-Ferreira do Alentejo Shear Zone, has been highlighted in the last few years. Nevertheless, there are several gaps in the geological knowledge of this Terrane, including the interpretation of existing data in the framework of the new tectono-stratigraphic terrane proposal, with an ind...

The PBPI-P wa...

It is absolutely critical to make the differential diagnosis with deep cervical infections in order to avoid invasive treatme...

Tympanoplasty in children: A review of 91 cases
Ribeiro, JC; Cerejeira, R; Silvestre, N; Romão, J; Paiva, AOBJECTIVES: There is a marked diversity in the reported success rates for achieving an intact tympanic membrane following tympanoplasty. Controversy exists about the factors thought to influence surgical outcome. These facts have important implications for the selection of patients who would benefit the most. This study reviews the factors thought to determine the anatomical and functional success of tympanopla...
