Ileal intussusception is the invagination of the small intestine within itself and accounts for 1% of cases of acute obstruction. However, physicians do not initially consider intussusception as a possible diagnosis of obstruction due to its rarity in adults. Herein, we report the case of a 22-year-old male who was admitted to the Emergency Department with continuous abdominal pain. Ultrasonography and computed...
INTRODUCTION: ABO-incompatible liver transplantation (ABOi LT) is considered to be a rescue option in emergency transplantation. Herein, we have reported our experience with ABOi LT including long-term survival and major complications in these situations. PATIENT AND METHODS: ABOi LT was performed in cases of severe hepatic failure with imminent death. The standard immunosuppression consisted of basiliximab, c...
Thyroid disease is common in pregnant women.We report a 10 weeks gestation pregnancy with hyperemesis gravidarum, hypertension crisis and hyperthyroidism
We conducted a study of the phenology of four cultivars of Olea europaea L. ('Arbequina', 'Cobrançosa', 'Galega Vulgar' and 'Picual') based on observations of phenological stages, flowering times and modeling the flowering dates, using as reference an olive grove in Elvas. We conducted a modeling study of flowering dates following the model of De Melo Abreu et al. (2004). In the year 2011 the floral initiation ...
Prediction of flowering of olive trees should account for chilling requirements, using an appropriate chilling unit for the accounting of chilling accumulation. After chilling requirements are satisfied, dormancy break takes place. Thereafter, the trees enter the forcing phase, in which the thermal time approach is used, but an appropriate base temperature must be determined. Such a model was developed, calibra...
Os dados para a calibração e validação dos modelos resultam dum projeto FCT que se encontra no terceiro ano. Abrange quatro cultivares (Arbequina, Cobrançosa, Galega, Picual), quatro localizações principais (Mirandela, Santarém, Elvas e Moncarapacho). Os dados das temperaturas horárias foram obtidos a partir de estações meteorológicas localizadas na vizinhança dos ensaios. Os dados do vingamento foram obtidos a...
A qualidade do azeite pode ser um elemento diferenciador, permitindo a prática de melhores preços num mercado cada vez mais competitivo. Os constituintes que mais têm sido apontados como tendo propriedades benéficas para a saúde são a composição acídica elevada em monoinsaturados, os valores elevados de tocoferóis, nomeadamente do atocoferol (vitamina E), e de polifenóis. A cultivar, a temperatura e o índice de...
Chronic Granulomatous Disease (CGD) is a primary immunodeficiency disorder characterized by recurrent purulent infections of the skin, lungs, and reticuloendothelial organs, primarily due to staphylococci, enteric bacteria, fungi, and occasionally mycobacteria. More than two thirds of all cases are X-linked and result from defects in the CYBB gene that encodes the gp91-phox subunit of NADPH oxidase. The authors...
Simpósio Nacional de Olivicultura, 5º, Santarém, 24-26 de Setembro, 2009 ; Phenological development of the olive tree is important for studying its adaptability, for management and simulation of growth and yield of olive orchards. Nevertheless, most studies that predict the date of flowering of the olive do not consider its chilling requirements, that are low, but may not be satisfied in some years, under mild...
O vingamento da azeitona é o resultado dos processos vegetativo e reprodutivo que decorrem durante o ciclo bianual da oliveira. O factor genético tem uma grande importância, mas diversos trabalhos experimentais concluíram existir uma preponderância dos factores ambientais. Neste trabalho experimental, realizado durante dois anos consecutivos com árvores adultas, em safra, de `Cobrançosa', `Conserva De Elvas', `...
