Promoting Sustainable Behavior Change in Body Weight Control
There is a wide acknowledgement of obesity as a relevant clinical entity. Such relevance can be inferred by the huge worldwide amount of research and related health promotion and clinical efforts. Though the evidence sustains some cues for the therapeutic success, the overall long-term effectiveness of obesity treatment tends to be not so satisfactory. Scientific literature is not unequivocal in key areas of nu...
Integrated Disease Management: A Critical Review of Foreign and Portuguese Expe...
Introduction: The present article reviews findings from empirical evaluations of integrated disease management programmes. The objective is to provide insights on integration levels, priority interventions and their effect on patient outcomes.Material and Methods: The literature review identified 1 251 articles, published from 2006 to 2011. Upon a detailed screening 61 articles were selected for bibliometric a...

Role of Notch signaling on the differentiation of early lymphoid progenitors ce...
Moreira, Pedro Miguel LopesDissertação para a obtenção do grau de Mestre em Genética Molecular e Biomedicina ; The lymphoid organs, thymus and spleen, are essential for the differentiation of T and B cells, respectively. One of the signaling pathways involved in processes of cell differentiation is the Notch signaling pathway. Work conducted by our group demonstrated that Notch ligands, receptors and target genes are expressed in the th...

Análise de vigas sanduíche de alumínio - aglomerado de cortiça
Moreira, Pedro José DiasA produção de estruturas mais leves vai de encontro ao aumento da preocupação atual com o meio ambiente. Com estruturas mais leves consegue-se sistemas mais eficientes, como é disto exemplo, a industria dos transportes. Um caminho para se obter estruturas mais leves é a utilização de materiais mais leves sem prejudicar a rigidez estrutural. Os materiais compósitos já são há algum tempo usados com o objetivo de ...
Food consumption, physical activity and socio-economic status related to BMI, w...
Abreu, Sandra; Santos, Rui; Moreira, Carla; Santos, P. C.; Mota, Jorge; Moreira, PedroObjective: To examine the association between obesity and food group intakes, physical activity and socio-economic status in adolescents. Design: A cross-sectional study was carried out in 2008. Cole’s cut-off points were used to categorize BMI. Abdominal obesity was defined by a waist circumference at or above the 90th percentile, as well as a waist-to-height ratio at or above 0?500. Diet was evaluated using a...
Mismatch negativity in childhood temporal lobe epilepsy: a proposed paradigm fo...
Tomé, David; Moreira, Pedro; Marques-Teixeira, João; Barbosa, Fernando; Jääskeläinen, SatuBackground: Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is a neurological disorder that directly affects cortical areas responsible for auditory processing. The resulting abnormalities can be assessed using event-related potentials (ERP), which have high temporal resolution. However, little is known about TLE in terms of dysfunction of early sensory memory encoding or possible correlations between EEGs, linguistic deficits, a...
Biomechanical models for human gait analyses using inverse dynamics formulation
Moreira, Pedro; Lugrís, Urbano; Cuadrado, Javier; Flores, PauloThe main goal of this work is to present planar biomechanical multibody models, suitable to be used in inverse dynamic analyses. The proposed approach is straightforward and computationally efficient for the study of different human gait scenarios for normal and pathological. For this, a biomechanical model of the lower limb of the human body was developed. The biomechanical model consists of three bodies (thig...
Internet interventions in physical activity and dietary behavior for adolescent...
Ferro-Lebres, Vera; Gonçalves, Gustavo; Aires, Luísa; Moreira, Pedro; Ribeiro, José CarlosPurpose of Study: To perform a review on internet interventions for adolescents focusing physical activity and dietary behavior and to understand the effect of schools and teachers involvement in the outcomes. Background: Although the well known benefits of a healthy lifestyle (high physical activity levels and a healthy eating pattern), the adolescents of most industrialized countries fail to meet dietary and ...
