Figueiredo, A.; Almeida, M.A.; Almodovar, M.T.; Alves, P.; A, Araujo; Araújo, D.; Barata, F.; Barradas, L.; Barroso, A.; Brito, U.; Camacho, E.Objective: The main aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety profile of Nivolumab, an immune-checkpoint-inhibitor antibody, in advanced, previously treated, Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) patients, in a real world setting. Methods: We performed a retrospective, multicentre data analysis of patients who were included in the Portuguese Nivolumab Expanded Access Program (EAP). Eligibility crite...
New WC-Cu composites for the divertor in fusion reactors
Dias, Marta; Pinhão, N.; Faustino, R.; Martins, Ricardo; Ramos, A. S.; Vieira, M. T.; Correia, J.B.; Camacho, E.; Fernandes, F. M. Braz; Nunes, B.ABSTRACT: The requirements for the divertor components of future fusion reactors are challenging and therefore a stimulus for the development of new materials. In this paper, WC-Cu composites are studied for use as thermal barrier between the plasma facing tungsten tiles and the copper-based heat sink of the divertor. Composite materials with 50% vol. WC were prepared by hot pressing and characterized in terms ...
Team approach to ERCP-directed single-brush cytology for the diagnosis of malig...
Urbano, M.; Rosa, A.; Gomes, D.; Camacho, E.; Calhau, C. A.; Leitão, M.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical usefulness of single-brush cytology performed at ERCP as initial method for detecting pancreatobiliary malignancy, ensuring a very close relationship between endoscopists, cytotechnicians, and cytopathologists. STUDY DESIGN: All 125 cytodiagnoses considered in this study correspond to the first brushing for each patient, collected by one of the three members of a fixed team o...
