Efficacy and cost-effectiveness of an ACT and compassion-based intervention for...
Trindade, Inês A.; Soares, Andreia; Skvarc, David; Carreiras, Diogo; Pereira, Joana; Lourenço, Óscar; Sampaio, Filipa; Sousa, Bruno deBreast cancer is the most diagnosed cancer in women worldwide and carries a considerable psychosocial burden. Interventions based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and compassion-based approaches show promise in improving adjustment and quality of life in people with cancer. The Mind programme is an integrative ACT and compassion-based intervention tailored for women with breast cancer, which aims to p...
International Classification of Orofacial Pain: Portuguese Translation (2024)
Parreira, Elsa; Fonseca, Júlio; Brás, Alice; Pereira, Joana; Pereira, Liliana; Oliveira, Renato; Moutinho, Rita; Machado, SaraThe new International Classification of Orofacial Pain (ICOP) (1st Edition), a joint venture of the International Headache Society, American Academy of Orofacial Pain (AAOP), Orofacial and Head Pain Special Interest Group (OFHP SIG) of the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) and International Network for Orofacial Pain and Related Disorders Methodology (INfORM), lists all causes of orofacial ...
A curated dataset on the distribution of West Palaearctic freshwater bivalves
Lopes-Lima, Manuel; Aldridge, David C.; Álvarez, María G.; Araujo, Rafael; Barea-Azcón, José Miguel; Bikashvili, Ani; Bragado, Dolores; Bylyna, LiliaFreshwater bivalves (FWB) are attracting scientific and societal attention given their essential ecosystem services, ecological functions, and poor conservation status. Current knowledge of the spatial distribution of West Palearctic FWB is poor preventing the understanding of biogeography and conservation planning. One of the priorities of the pan-European networking project "CONFREMU - Conservation of freshwa...
Importance of epidemiological studies in the preventing of pressure ulcers
Ramos, Andreia; Valente, Carla; Cabrita, Patrícia; Fernandes, Karina; Pereira, Joana; Santos, Nuno; Henriques, Maria FernandesCurrently, the existence of interruptions associated with pressure continues to be a present and current reality among hospitalized sick people. Pressure Ulcers (PU) are therefore considered a significant problem in health institutions, as they represent a considerable impact at a clinical, social and economic level, as well as a negative impact on the quality of life of patients and caregivers. PU are consider...
Restoring neuropetide Y levels in the hypothalamus ameliorates premature aging ...
Ferreira-Marques, Marisa; Carmo Silva, Sara; Pereira, Joana; Botelho, Mariana; Nóbrega, Clévio; López‐Otín, Carlos; Almeida, Luís Pereira deThe hypothalamus has been recognized as a regulator of whole-body aging. Neuropeptide Y (NPY), highly abundant in the central nervous system and produced by the hypothalamus, enhances autophagy in this brain region and mediates autophagy triggered by caloric restriction, suggesting a potential role as a caloric restriction mimetic and an aging regulator. Considering that hypothalamic NPY levels decline during a...
Nanoparticle platforms for encapsulation of therapeutic deep eutectic systems t...
Oliveira, Filipe; Pereira, Joana; Neca, Carolina; Mansor, Muhamad Hawari; Gao, Zijian; Muthana, Munitta; Duarte, Ana Rita C.Given the growing interest in deep eutectic systems (DES) for their remarkable physicochemical and biological properties, and their alignment with green chemistry principles, we explored their therapeutic potential against colorectal cancer (CRC) in this study. The reported promising selective toxicity of therapeutic deep eutectic systems (THEDES), combining a terpene (menthol, thymol, perillyl alcohol and limo...
Green approach for obtaining bioactive compounds from Pterocaulon polystachyum ...
Rodrigues, Victor Hugo Silva; Vladic, Jelena; Pereira, Joana; Monteiro, Hugo; Paiva, Alexandre; Vargas, Rubem Mário Figueiró; Cassel, EduardoA green approach for the extraction of bioactive compounds from Pterocaulon polystachyum was studied. The extraction process was optimized regarding time, temperature, solid/liquid ratio and technique, either ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) or heating and stirring. Eleven deep eutectic solvents (DES) based on choline chloride, menthol and betaine were evaluated to identify the most effective solvent to ext...

Patterns of Genetic Connectivity in Southern European Salmo trutta L. Populations
Pereira, Joana; Silva, Sara; Almeida, Rita; Domingues, Andreia; Alves, Maria; Almieda, Pedro; Alexandre, Carlos; Mateus, CatarinaSalmonid fish species are highly threatened by climatic and anthropogenic pressures, since they are very sensitive to thermal stress and habitat degradation. Salmo trutta L. is a salmonid with a distinct lifestyle, such as the holobiotic (brown trout) and the anadromous (sea trout) ecotypes. Near the southern limit of the species distribution, Iberian trout populations are arguably more vulnerable to environmen...
