Spectrum of ankylosing spondylitis in Portugal. Development of BASDAI, BASFI, B...

The availability of population-specific normative data regarding disease severity measures is essential for patient assessment. The goals of the current study were to characterize the pattern of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) in Portuguese patients and to develop reference centile charts for BASDAI, BASFI, BASMI and mSASSS, the most widely used assessment tools in AS. AS cases were recruited from hospital outpatie...

Optical properties of titanium oxycarbide thin films

The optical properties of TiC x O y thin films, deposited by reactive dc magnetron sputtering at different oxygen flow, were investigated by spectroscopic ellipsometry in the energy range of 0.75–4.5 eV. The dielectric functions measured in the energy range of intraband transitions were analyzed using the classical Drude theory. These results show that free plasma energy and the damping constant of the fil...

First principles study of point defects in titanium oxycarbide

We have performed first principles density functional theory calculations to study the formation energy of point defects in TiC, TiO and TiCO compounds. The formation energy of isolated vacancies were obtained for different equilibrium conditions. For binary compounds, we have also calculated the formation energy of antisite defects. It was found that the defect formation energies strongly depend on the chemica...

Association of IL23R and ERAP1 genes with ankylosing spondylitis in a Portugues...

OBJECTIVE: Association between ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and two genes, ERAP1 and IL23R, has recently been reported in North American and British populations. The population attributable risk fraction for ERAP1 in this study was 25%, and for IL23R, 9%. Confirmation of these findings to ERAP1 in other ethnic groups has not yet been demonstrated. We sought to test the association between single nucleotide polym...

Characterization of patterns of food packaging usage in portuguese homes

This study aimed to further refine the exposure assessment of migrants from food-contact materials by characterizing, at the household level, food packaging usage (amount and type) in Portuguese urban families. Packages from domestic use were collected from a sample of 105 consumers from 34 households over a 30-day period. Collected packages (more than 6000 items) were characterized in the laboratory and data w...

Variação espacial para o cultivo do arroz no Brasil conforme prognósticos de mu...

Este trabalho avalia o efeito que as possíveis mudanças climáticas advindas do aquecimento global, previstas pelo ?Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (Houghton et al., 2001), poderão provocar na aptidão climática da cultura do arroz, tendo por base a metodologia utilizada no Zoneamento Agrícola do Ministério da Agricultura, Pecuária e Abastecimento (MAPA), que está em vigor desde a safra de 1996. ; 2005
