Introdução: A Gastroenterite Aguda (GEA) é uma patologia com importante morbilidade sendo a segunda causa de internamento na idade pediátrica. Objetivo: Caracterizar a GEA, em crianças internadas em dois hospitais da área de Lisboa com diferentes características demográficas. Métodos: Estudo prospetivo de maio 2011 a junho 2012. Pesquisados potenciais agentes etiológicos por técnicas convencionais e de biologia...
OBJECTIVE: To assess the feasibility of a pure endoscopic closure method for vesical perforations using fully absorbable material. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A pilot experimental study was performed in eight anaesthetized female pigs. Four 10-mm and four 20-mm endoscopic full thickness cystotomies were created. An endoscopic suturing machine (RD-180®; LSI Solutions, Victor, NY, USA) was deployed through the workin...
Pectus Carinatum (PC) is a chest deformity consisting on the anterior protrusion of the sternum and adjacent costal cartilages. Non-operative corrections, such as the orthotic compression brace, require previous information of the patient chest surface, to improve the overall brace fit. This paper focuses on the validation of the Kinect scanner for the modelling of an orthotic compression brace for the correcti...
Introdução: A prevalência da alergia alimentar, em idade pediátrica, é cerca de 4-6%. Os principais alimentos responsabilizados por alergia são o leite e clara do ovo, sendo a clínica de alergia, geralmente transitória.

Schistosoma haematobium is a parasitic flatworm that infects millions of people, mostly in the developing world, and is associated with high incidence of bladder cancer, although why is not clear. Previously, we have used CD-1 mice to show that Schistosoma haematobium total antigen (Sh) has a carcinogenic ability. Sh intravesically instillation induced the development of several urothelial lesions, namely nodul...
Purpose Although bioabsorbable screws promise to degrade within months up to several years after implantation, often this does not happen. In fact, other problems such as screw breakage, tunnel enlargement, allergic or foreign body reactions, cyst or abscess formation, and delayedmigration of ‘‘biodegradable’’ screws have been reported. This study aims to provide relevant basic science knowledge and recent insi...

The authors report a rare case of a 48-year-old male with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) who initially presented with a bilateral proliferative retinopathy. The patient complained of recent visual loss and floaters in both eyes (BE). Ophthalmologic evaluation revealed a best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of 20/50 in the right eye and 20/200 in the left eye (LE). Fundoscopy showed the presence of bilateral peri...
Rooms for music education have specific requirements, in particular, from the point of view of its acoustic behavior. However, Regulation of Acoustic Requirements of Buildings establishes requirements for school buildings but does not consider the specificity of music schools buildings. Furthermore, there are music schools in buildings that were not constructed for such purpose and it is necessary to rehabilita...
