CO2 Concentration in Day Care Centres is Related to Wheezing in Attending Children

Poor ventilation at day care centres (DCCs) was already reported, although its effects on attending children are not clear. This study aimed to evaluate the association between wheezing in children and indoor CO2 (a ventilation surrogate marker) in DCC and to identify behaviours and building characteristics potentially related to CO2. In phase I, 45 DCCs from Lisbon and Oporto (Portugal) were selected through a...

Alergia a Medicamentos Reportada em Crianças que Frequentam Infantários

Introdução: A prevalência de alergia a fármacos na população geral não se encontra devidamente caraterizada, existindo poucos estudos publicados que tenham abordado esta situação em crianças com idades inferior a seis anos de idade. Este estudo tem como objetivo principal estimar a prevalência de alergia a medicamentos reportada pelos pais de crianças de infantários de Lisboa e do Porto. Material e Métodos: No ...

Simulation of a stand-alone residential PEMFC power system with sodium borohydr...

Catalytic hydrolysis of sodium borohydride (NaBH4) has been investigated as a method to generate hydrogen for fuel cell applications. The high purity of the generated hydrogen makes this process a potential source of hydrogen for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). In this paper, a PEMFC power system employing a NaBH4 hydrogen generator is designed to supply continuous power to residential power ...

Fixed Drug Eruption Due to Etoricoxibe - A Case Report

Development and evaluation of a novel topical treatment for acne with azelaic a...

Azelaic acid (AzA) is used in the treatment of acne. However, side effects and low compliance have been associated with several topical treatments with AzA. Nanotechnology presents a strategy that can overcome these problems. Polymeric nanoparticles can control drug release and targeting and reduce local drug toxicity. The aim of this study was to produce and evaluate an innovative topical treatment for acne wi...

A sodium borohydride hydrogen generation reactor for stationary applications: E...

Ruthenium on nickel-foam catalyst was prepared for hydrogen production from the hydrolysis reaction of an alkaline NaBH4 solution. Experiments were carried out at five temperatures (30, 40, 45, 50 and 60 °C) in a 0.1 dm3 small batch reactor. To understand the kinetic behaviour of the hydrolysis reaction in the presence of this catalyst, the experimental data were fitted to three kinetic models (zero-order, firs...

Psiquiatria comunitária na equipa da Brandoa: realidade assistencial em Dezembr...

O Serviço de Psiquiatria do Hospital Prof. Doutor Fernando Fonseca, EPE (HFF) foi o primeiro serviço em Portugal com base no hospital geral a desenvolver um modelo integrado de cuidados de saúde mental na comunidade, orientado para as necessidades da população e apoiado em equipas multidisciplinares. Este modelo assenta na continuidade de cuidados pela mesma equipa, no seguimento assertivo dos doentes na comuni...

Penalty fuzzy function for derivative-free optimization

Penalty and Barrier methods are normally used to solve Nonlinear Optimization Problems constrained problems. The problems appear in areas such as engineering and are often characterised by the fact that involved functions (objective and constraints) are non-smooth and/or their derivatives are not know. This means that optimization methods based on derivatives cannot net used. A Java based API was implemented, i...
