Improving visual attractiveness to enhance city-river integration - a methodolo...

The relationship between rivers and cities has evolved from a natural coexistence and interdependence to a progressive relationship of segregation and disintegration. This article uses a planning experiment to explore and discuss some concerns about visual attractiveness of city–river landscapes in promoting spatial integration of cities and rivers. It presents a methodological approach integrating expert opini...

How landscape ecology can promote the development of sustainable landscapes in ...

In Europe, landscape research has a long tradition of drawing on several disciplines. ‘National schools’ of landscape research developed, which were related to the characteristic landscapes found in the different countries and to specific linguistic meanings and legal traditions when using landscape related concepts. International co-operation demands a certain harmonization of these concepts for better mutual ...

Cervical abscess in an immunocompetent patient with Mycobacterium malmoense pul...

BACKGROUND: Mycobacterium malmoense is a nontuberculous mycobacteria seen mainly in two age groups and with different clinical presentations. Most patients are male adults presenting clinical symptoms and signs similar to those of pulmonary tuberculosis. The second group is formed by immunocompetent children with localized cervical lymphadenitis. Although cervical adenitis is the main extrapulmonary manifestati...

Relata-se a ocorrência de metacercárias de Diplostomum compactum (Trematoda: Diplostomidae) infectando Geophagus brasiliensis (Teleostei: Cichlidae) do reservatório de Barra Bonita, rio Tietê, estado de São Paulo, Brasil. As metacercárias foram coletadas no globo ocular, fixadas em solução de AFA e coradas com carmim. As análises morfológicas e morfométricas de cinco espécimes foram realizadas por meio do siste...

CD26/DPPIV and response to hepatitis B vaccination

The prevention of hepatitis B is important, since it is responsible for significant morbidity and mortality around the world. Unfortunately, hepatitis B vaccine does not always induce protective immunity. The lack of immune response to vaccine (non-responders) can depend on individual characteristics. The objective of this study was to correlate the CD26/DPPIV cellular expression and DPPIV serum activity with H...

Structural Changes During Air Drying of Fruits and Vegetables

This work aims at reviewing structural changes occurring in convective air drying of fruits and vegetables. These include changes in physical properties, such as volume, porosity and bulk and particle density, which directlyaffect textural attributes of the products. Models relating with water content physical properties are also summarised. At microscopic level, the phenomena observed byprevious authors is des...

Structural changes during air drying of fruits and vegetables: a review

Cerebral toxoplasmosis after renal transplantation. Case report and review.

Infection caused by Toxoplasma gondii is a frequent event in Portugal. When this occurs in immunocompetent individuals, it is rarely a matter of concern; the contrary occurs with immunosuppressed patients or in pregnancy. Transplant patients are treated with immunosuppressive drugs which mainly disturb their mechanisms of cellular immunity, and that opens the way to infections by opportunistic intracellular mic...
