Motivation and Benefits of Implementation and Certification according ISO 9001 ...
Santos, Gilberto; Costa, José Batista; Leal, AThe aim of the research is to analyze the different aspects associated with the motivation and benefits of certified ISO 9001 companies in Portugal. A total of 426 certified Portuguese companies were surveyed. The response rate was equal to 61.03 percent. Our results suggest that the main motivation for certification were “improvement of quality”, “improvement of company image”, “marketing advantage”, “give emp...
Neuropsychological Abnormalities in Children with the Panayiotopoulos Syndrome ...
Lopes, R; Simões, M; Leal, APanayiotopoulos syndrome (PS) is a common epilepsy syndrome associated with rare clinical seizures and unknown localization of the epileptogenic area. Despite findings of normal development in patientswith PS, recent neuropsychological studies point to subtle and diverse cognitive impairments. No well-outlined hypothesis about the localization of the brain dysfunction responsible for these impairments has been ...
Effects of 8-Month Aquatic Training on Bone Mass Density In Post Menopausal Wom...
Adsuar, JC; Tomas-Carus, P; Parraca, JA; Leal, A; Olivares, PR; Gusi, NObjective: To evaluate the effect of an aquatic training program on bone mass density (BMD) in post- menopausal women with fibromyalgia (FM). Design: Randomised controlled trial (ISRCTN53367487). Settings: Faculty of Sport Science Subjects: Twenty-four postmenopausal women with FM (mean age, 56, SD, 7 years) were randomised to intervention (n=12) or control group (n=12). Interventions: The experimental group re...
Dosimetric effect by shallow air cavities in high energy electron beams
Zarza-Moreno, M.; Carreira, P.; Madureira, L.; Miras del Rio, H.; Salguero, F. J.; Leal, A.; Teixeira, Nuno; Jesus, A. P.; Mora, G.This study evaluates the dosimetric impact caused by an air cavity located at 2 mm depth from the top surface in a PMMA phantom irradiated by electron beams produced by a Siemens Primus linear accelerator. A systematic evaluation of the effect related to the cavity area and thickness as well as to the electron beam energy was performed by using Monte Carlo simulations (EGSnrc code), Pencil Beam algorithm and Ga...
O Volume da Aurícula Esquerda como Marcador Ecocardiográfico de Prognóstico em ...
Ferreira, F; Galrinho, A; Soares, RM; Branco, LM; Abreu, J; Feliciano, J; Papoila, AL; Virella, D; Leal, A; Cruz Ferreira, RIntrodução: O aumento da aurícula esquerda (AE) é um marcador de mortalidade na população geral. Os doentes com miocardiopatia dilatada (MCD) têm um amplo espetro de tamanhos deAE, mas a importância clínica desta observação tem sido pouco estudada. Objectivo: Avaliar a importância prognóstica a longo prazo do volume da AE (VAE) em doentes com MCD. Métodos: Estudo pro...
Feasibility of Focal Transcranial DC Polarization with Simultaneous EEG Recordi...
Faria, P; Fregni, F; Sebastião, F; Dias, AI; Leal, AWe aimed to investigate the feasibility of an experimental system for simultaneous transcranial DC stimulation(tDCS) and EEG recording in human epilepsy. We report tolerability of this system in a cross-over controlled trial with 15 healthy subjects and preliminary effects of its use, testing repeated tDCS sessions, in two patients with drug-refractory Continuous Spike-Wave Discharges During Slow Sleep (CSWS). ...
Benefícios da Terapêutica de Ressincronização Cardíaca na «Miocardiopatia Muito...
Lousinha, A; Oliveira, MM; Feliciano, J; Galrinho, A; Branco, LM; Cunha, PS; Hamad, H; Ramos, R; Abreu, J; Leal, A; Santos, S; Soares, RMINTRODUCTION: Recent clinical trials have studied parameters that could predict response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) in patients with advanced heart failure. Left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVEDD) is regarded as a possible predictor of response to CRT. OBJECTIVE: To study the response to CRT in patients with very dilated cardiomyopathy, i.e. those at a more advanced stage of the pathol...
N170 Asymmetry as an Index of Inferior Occipital Dysfunction in Patients With S...
Lopes, R; Cabral, P; Canas, N; Breia, P; Foreid, JP; Calado, E; Silva, R; Leal, AObjective: Localizing epileptic foci in posterior brain epilepsy remains a difficult exercise in surgery for epilepsy evaluation. Neither clinical manifestations, neurological, EEG nor neuropsychological evaluations provide strong information about the area of onset, and fast spread of paroxysms often produces mixed features of occipital, temporal and parietal symptoms. We investigated the usefulness of the N17...
Resposta sorológica de coelhos imunizados com antígenos de Pythium insidiosum a...
Leal, A.T.; Santúrio, Jânio Morais; Leal, Adriana Bardemaker Monteiro; Pinto, Alexandre Machado; Griebeler, Josiane; Flores, Eduardo FurtadoPythium insidiosum é um fungo zoospórico que se desenvolve em locais alagadiços e que pode infectar humanos e animais, principalmente eqüinos. A infecção natural nesta espécie resulta em pitiose clínica, uma doença granulomatosa de difícil tratamento. Uma das opções terapêuticas é a imunoterapia com antígenos obtidos de culturas do agente. Com o objetivo de avaliar o efeito de adjuvantes na resposta sorológica ...
Antifungal activity of the naphthoquinone beta-lapachone against disseminated i...
Medeiros,C.S.; Pontes-Filho,N.T.; Camara,C.A.; Lima-Filho,J.V.; Oliveira,P.C.; Lemos,S.A.; Leal,A.F.G.; Brandão,J.O.C.; Neves,R.P.The in vivo antifungal activity of the naphthoquinone beta-lapachone against disseminated infection by Cryptococcus neoformans was investigated. Swiss mice were immunosuppressed daily with dexamethasone (0.5 mg per mouse) intraperitoneally for 3 days, the procedure was repeated 4 days later, and the animals were then challenged intravenously with C. neoformans (10(6) CFU/mL) 1 week later. Seven days after infec...
