Hence, here, we evaluated the contents of minerals, antioxidants, phenolics, glucosinolates, pigments, colour, texture and flavour of water-boiling broccoli and green bean pods, with four mineral...

Hipólito, Nádia; Martins, Sara; Ruivo, Adriana; Flora, Sofia; Silva, Cândida G.; Marques, Alda; Brooks, Dina; Cruz, JoanaIntroduction: COPD often leads to loss of independence in daily activities which may increase the dependency on the informal caregiver, resulting in caregiving burden. Several instruments have been used to assess caregiving burden in COPD; however, their measurement properties have been poorly investigated in this population. This study assessed the construct validity and reliability of the Informal Caregiver B...
