Cortisol reactivity and negative affect among preterm infants at 12 months duri...
Moutinho, J.; Baptista, J.; Mesquita, A. R.; Wolke, D.; Toscano, C; Moreira, C.; Bernardo, A.; Soares, I.The purpose of this study was to investigate correlates of preterm (PT) infant’s cortisol reactivity and the association to infant negative affect, during a mother-infant interaction procedure. Participants included 48 infants born prematurely (gestational age < 37 weeks) and their mothers, assessed when infants were 12 months old corrected for prematurity. The examined variables comprised both neonatal and env...
Invasive and Subcutaneous Infections Caused by Filamentous Fungi: Report from a...
Veríssimo, C; Toscano, C; Ferreira, T; Abreu, G; Simões, H; Diogo, J; Carvalho, D; Santiago, F; Lima, A; Queirós, AM; Sabino, RInvasive fungal infections (IFI) have significantly increased over the past years due to advances in medical care for the at-risk immunocompromised population. IFI are often difficult to diagnose and manage, and can be associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. This study aims to contribute to understanding the etiology of invasive and subcutaneous fungal infections, their associated risk factors, and...
Candida species contamination of preservation fluid-outcome of renal transplant...
Rodrigues, B; Natário, A; Vizinho, R; Jorge C, C; Weigert, A; Martinho, A; Toscano, C; Marques, T; Machado, DBACKGROUND: Fungal infections are a rare but important cause of morbidity and mortality in kidney transplantation. Fungal contamination of the kidney preservation fluid may, sometimes, be the cause of these infections. However, the clinical consequences of fungal contamination of this fluid are not completely understood and literature on this topic is controversial. The purpose of this study was to determine th...

Cristino, J M; Calado, E; Calheiros, I M; Costa, D; Costa, M N; Diogo, J; Felicio, M L; Ferro, M L; Da Fonseca, J C; Guimarães, M A; Lito, L; Marques, JIn 1994, Microbiology Laboratories of ten Portuguese hospitals analysed isolated microorganisms found in blood and urine samples and studied antimicrobial susceptibilities of the most frequent bacterial pathogens. From 63780 blood samples, the most frequent were Staphylococcus spp. and from 69189 urine samples significant numbers of Escherichia coli, Enterococcus spp., Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Candida spp. we...
