In order to define irradiation treatment as a routine conservation methodology, it is imperative to develop chemometric indicators with the ability to distinguish irradiated from unirradiated foodstuffs. Electron spin resonance, photostimulated luminescence and thermoluminescence methods were employed to monitor radiation-induced markers, as well as different chemical compounds produced from the lipidic fractio...
O hemangioma cavernoso é uma neoplasia vascular que apesar de benigna pode causar significativo prejuízo estético e, por vezes, funcional. Os autores relatam o caso de uma criança de sexo feminino com três meses em que o hemangioma teve um crescimento rápido, invadindo a órbita esquerda e determinando o encerramento da fenda palpebral direita, em que se obteve excelente resposta clínica à terapêutica com cortic...
This paper discusses the benefits of using a hardwarecoprocessor to improve the determinism and performanceof a Real-Time Kernel. The proposed coprocessor wasmodeled with the VHDL hardware description language andimplemented in a FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array).It is able to manage (schedule, preempt and dispatch) several tasks, either periodic or aperiodic. The preemption of the task running on the Centra...
The necessity for better radios with increased flexibility,easier design and verification led a paradigm shift infavour of the Software-Defined Radio (SDR). On the otherhand, the SDR implementation of Next Generation WirelessNetworks (NGWN) will require significantly higher power efficiency than current processors can provide.In this paper, we present a baseband processing architecturedesigned to shorten the ga...
Our goal was to study the symbiotic performance of two Mesorhizobium ciceri strains, transformed with an exogenous 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase gene (acdS), in chickpea plants under salinity stress. The EE-7 (salt-sensitive) and G-55 (salt-tolerant) M. ciceri strains were transformed with an acdS gene present on plasmid pRKACC. Salinity significantly reduced the overall growth of plants inoculate...
Gastric Dilatation is a potentially fatal gastrointestinal pathology caused by aerophagy. It is mainly caused by rapid consumption of food, excitation or exercising near the time of feeding, which promotes the entrance of air into the stomach (Robbins et al, 2011). With this work we aim to emphasize the care given by veterinary nurses in this pathology.
A banda gástrica é um método eficaz na obtenção da perda de peso, mas tem uma taxa de complicações a longo prazo que pode ser considerada elevada. Entre elas, a migração intragástrica é rara (0.6-10%) consiste na erosão da banda através da parede gástrica até ao lúmen por um processo de destruição e auto-regeneração com processo infeccioso mínimo. Neste trabalho analisamos os aspetos clínicos, analíticos e ter...
Techn. Report TR-HASLab:01:2013 ; The production of safety critical software is bound to a number of safety and certification standards in which estimating the risk of failure plays a central role. Yet risk estimation seems to live outside most programmers’ core practice, involving simulation techniques and worst case analysis performed a posteriori. In this paper we propose that risk be constructively handled...
Unlike fish, amphibia and even mammalial peripheral nerves, human central nervous system (CNS) axons have a very limited regeneration capability and do not spontaneously re-grow if lesioned. After damage or disruption, for instance caused by brain/ spinal cord injury (SCI) or stroke, a cascade of cellular and biochemical reactions occurs around the lesion site that creates a harsh environment for axons to regen...
