Cross-transmission of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus in patients undergoing ...
Fram,D.; Castrucci,F.M.; Taminato,M.; Godoy-Martinez,P.; Freitas,M.C.S.; Belasco,A.; Sesso,R.; Pacheco-Silva,A.; Pignatari,A.C.; Barbosa,D.The objective of this study was to investigate the occurrence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE) cross-transmission between two patient groups (long-term dialysis and kidney transplant patients). Molecular typing, by automated ribotyping with the RiboPrinter Microbial Characterization System (Qualicon, USA), was used to analyze VRE isolates from 31 fecal samples of 320 dialysis patients and 38 fecal sam...
Predictors of restenosis after percutaneous coronary intervention using bare-me...
Lima-Filho,M.O.; Figueiredo,G.L.; Foss-Freitas,M.C.; Foss,M.C.; Marin-Neto,J.A.The objective of this study was to identify intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), angiographic and metabolic parameters related to restenosis in patients with dysglycemia. Seventy consecutive patients (77 lesions) selected according to inclusion and exclusion criteria were evaluated by the oral glucose tolerance test and the determination of insulinemia after a successful percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) wit...
Characterization and phytoremediation of abandoned contaminated mining area in ...
Canha, N.; Freitas, M.C.; Anawar, H.M.; Dionísio, I.; Dung, H.M.; Pinto-Gomes, Carlos; Bettencourt, A.This study aims to find out a vascular plant species that accumulate relatively high concentrations of arsenic (As) for its use as phytoremediator ar abandoned and contaminated mining areas, such as São Domingos mines (Portugal). The assessement of As contamination levels in soils and plants of other similar sites in the north of the coutry (Castromil ando Poço de Freitas) was also conducted and the sample anal...

Freitas, M. C.; Pacheco, A. M. G.; Anawar, H. M.; Dionísio, I.; Dung, H. M.; Canha, N.; Bettencourt, A.; Henriques, F.; Pinto-Gomes, CarlosThis study has determined contamination levels in soils and plants from the Sa˜o Domingos mining area, Portugal, by k0-INAA. Total concentrations of As, Sb, Cr, Hg, Cu, Zn and Fe in soils were very high, exceeding the maximum limits in Portuguese legislation. Concentrations of toxic elements like As, Sb and Zn were highest in roots of Erica andevalensis, Juncus acutus, Agrostis castellana and Nicotiana glauca. ...
Effect of metabolic control on interferon-gamma and interleukin-10 production b...
Foss-Freitas,M.C.; Foss,N.T.; Donadi,E.A.; Foss,M.C.The objective of the present study was to evaluate the production of cytokines, interferon-g (INF-g) and interleukin-10 (IL-10), in cultures of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from type 1 and type 2 diabetic patients and to correlate it with inadequate and adequate metabolic control. We studied 11 type 1 and 13 type 2 diabetic patients and 21 healthy individuals divided into two groups (N = 11 and 10)...
Natural to anthropogenic forcing in the Holocene evolution of three coastal lag...
Dinis, J. L.; Henriques, V.; Freitas, M. C.; Andrade, C.; Costa, P.In the coast of Central Portugal three lagoons were created by the Holocene flooding of diapiric-related depressions but experienced afterwards a significant sediment accumulation. Fast environmental and morphological changes after the Middle Holocene were clearly forced by anthropogenic activities since the Middle Ages and show a strong feedback on the human communities. Erosion in the studied watersheds depen...
Dermatoses em pacientes com diabetes mellitus
Foss,N T; Polon,D P; Takada,M H; Foss-Freitas,M C; Foss,M COBJETIVO: Ainda é desconhecida a relação do diabetes com fatores determinantes ou precipitantes de lesões dermatológicas em pacientes diabéticos. Assim, o objetivo do estudo foi investigar a presença de lesões cutâneas, não referidas pelo paciente diabético e sua relação com o controle metabólico da doença. MÉTODOS: Foram examinados 403 pacientes, dos quais 31% eram diabéticos do tipo 1 e 69% do tipo 2. Em ambu...
Caracterização do grânulo de amido de bananas (Musa AAA-Nanicão e Musa AAB-Terra)
Freitas,M.C.J.; Tavares,D.de Q.O amido de bananas tem sido pesquisado na área de nutrição a partir da introdução do conceito de Amido Resistente. O amido de Musa AAA-Nanicão e Musa AAB-Terra foram caracterizados quanto as suas respostas fisiológicas [12]. Em continuidade, o presente trabalho estudou características físicas e morfológicas dos grânulos de amido de ambas as espécies de banana comparando-as com amido nativo de milho comercial. O...

Bilha, J.; Andrade, C.; Azerêdo, Ana C.; Barriga, F.; Cachão, M.; Cunha, P. P.; Crispim, J. A.; Dantas, P.; Duarte, L. V.; Freitas, M.C.; Granja, M. H.This work constitutes the first contribution for the systematisation of the geological heritage knowledge in Portugal, following the international recomendations for the characterisation of geological heritage (IUGS, ProGEO). The application of the ProGEO methodology has resulted on the creation of fourteen frameworks with international relevance, established by consensus among the Portuguese geological communi...
