Much or More? Experiments of Rationality and Spite with School Children

Copyright © 2014 North American Journal of Pyschology. ; In a competitive environment the maximization of self-interest and the minimization of the other's interest can be seen as the two faces of the same coin. However, these motivations can lead to very different behaviors. In order to understand how these are expressed, we designed an experiment to measure the ability of children and teenagers to react to s...

Consensus document on coding of cardiac magnetic resonance examinations in Port...

One of the obstacles to more frequent and appropriate use of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) in Portugal has been the lack of specific codes that accurately describe these examinations as they are currently performed. In this consensus document, recommendations are made for updating and standardizing CMR codes in Portugal. Guidance on which techniques and codes should be used in the most common clinical scenar...

Documento de Consenso Sobre Codificação de Exames de Ressonância Magnética Card...

Um dos obstáculos a uma utilização mais frequente e apropriada da ressonância magnética cardíaca (RMC) em Portugal tem sido a ausência de códigos específicos que descrevam adequadamente os exames tal como são efetuados actualmente. Este documento de consenso fornece recomendações para a atualização e uniformização dos códigos empregues na RMC. São igualmente feitas recomendações quanto às técnicas e códigos a u...

Phaeohyphomycosis Caused by Alternaria Infectoria Presenting as Multiple Vegeta...

The genus Alternaria is one of the most common black moulds and appears to be increasing as a causative agent of subcutaneous phaeohyphomycosis, particularly among immunosuppressed patients. A 53-year-old patient who had received a kidney transplant presented with multiple verrucous lesions on the distal extremities. Positive histopathology and cultures, in addition to rDNA ITS region sequencing, identified the...

Low-level laser therapy, at 830 nm, for pain reduction in experimental model of...

Chronic pain, resulting from nerve compression, is a common clinical presentation. One means of conservative treatment is low-level laser therapy, although controversial. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of two doses of low-level laser, at 830 nm, on pain reduction in animals subjected to sciatica. Eighteen rats were used, divided into three groups: GS (n=6), sciatica and simulated treatment; G...

Ulcerações Dolorosas do Couro Cabeludo

A arterite temporal é um vasculite sistémica que afecta vasos de médio e grande calibre, em particular a artéria temporal. Os autores apresentam o caso de um doente observado por ulcerações extensas e dolorosas da região parieto-temporal direita, com cefaleia hemicraniana homolateral, amaurose fugaz e claudicação mandibular. As artérias temporais eram espessadas, dolorosas e sem pulso à palpação. Analiticamente...

Systemic Allergic Dermatitis to Epsilon-Aminocaproic Acid

Síntese de beta-N-acetilglicosaminídeos de arila modificados em C-6 como potenc...

We report herein the synthesis of aryl beta-N-acetylglucosaminides containing azido, amino and acetamido groups at C-6 as potential antimicrobial agents. It was expected that these compounds could interfere with the biosynthesis and/or biotransformation of N-acetylglucosamine in fungi and bacteria. None of the compounds showed antimicrobial activity against bacteria (Bacillus subtilis, Micrococcus luteus, Staph...

Cardiac Angiosarcoma. A Review

Based on a case of a patient with angiosarcoma (AS) of the right atrium with superior vena cava syndrome associated with urticaria and polyarthralgias, who died soon after surgery, the authors present a brief review of the subject of cardiac AS, an extremely rare pathology, usually diagnosed late due to its non-specific symptomatology. Several topics are discussed, including mechanisms of clinical manifestation...
