The clinical efficacy of continuous infusion of piperacillin/tazobactam in critically ill patients with microbiologically documented infections is currently unknown. We conducted a retrospective multicenter cohort study in 7 Portuguese intensive care units (ICU). We included 569 critically ill adult patients with a documented infection and treated with piperacillin/tazobactam admitted to one of the participatin...

Introdução: A infecção VIH/SIDA mantém-se uma importante causa de morbilidade e mortalidade nos países em vias de desenvolvimento, onde a terapêutica antiretroviral só está disponível para um número restrito de doentes. Nos países desenvolvidos, há tendência para estabilização da epidemia mas é ainda frequente o diagnóstico em fases tardias, com subaproveitamento dos benefícios do tratamento, aqui facilmente a...
This paper studies the modifications induced in low-pressure radio-frequency (rf) capacitively coupled nitrogen plasmas, by the addition of a few amount of hydrogen (up to 5%). The work is an intermediate step towards the study of N2-CH4 plasmas, for the simulation of the ionospheric chemistry of Saturn's satellite Titan. The plasmas are studied using both experiments and simulations. The experimental setup is...
Comunicação em Poster ; This paper studies the modifications induced in low-pressure radio-frequency capacitively coupled nitrogen plasmas, by the addition of a few amount of hydrogen (up to 5%). The plasmas are studied using both experiments (electrical and optical emission spectroscopy measurements) and simulations (using a fluid+kinetic code). Results reveal that the electron density increases with the amou...
Ulva compressa, Gelidium microdon, Osmundea pinnatifida, Fucus spiralis and Cystoseira abies-marina from the coast of S. Miguel Island were screened for their in vitro cytotoxicity against HeLa tumour cell line, antioxidant potential and total phenolic content. From each alga, the hexane fraction (HF) of the methanol extract, the methanol residue (MF) and the dichloromethane extract (DE), were obtained and eval...
Apresentação em poster ; The present work involves the study of Capacitively Coupled Plasmas (CCPs) produced at 13.56 MHz radio-frequency (RF) and 0.2 to 1.2 mbar pressures. The main characteristics of the CCP source, which is described with more detail in reference [1], are the following: (i) the discharge is confined laterally by a grounded cylindrical metallic grid; (ii) the gas is continuously injected int...
