O edema pulmonar de pressão negativa (EPPN) também descrito na literatura como edema agudo do pulmão pós-obstrutivo ou pós-extubação traqueal, é uma entidade rara, com uma incidência de aproximadamente 0.1 % em doentes anestesiados. Os autores descrevem o caso, ocorrido após extubação traqueal, de um doente submetido a orquidectomia por via laparoscópica sob anestesia geral balanceada. Relatam a fisiopatologia,...
Tobacco smoking is the cause of more than half million deaths/year in the European Union (EU). Monitoring smoking prevalence is an important tool to evaluate the epidemic and its evolution and to assess the effectiveness of preventive measures. The comparison between countries may help us identify good control practices. OBJECTIVE: To describe the current state and evolution of the smoking epidemic in several E...

Introdução A introdução da prática de aférese veio alterar substancialmente a qualidade da colheita, diminuindo a “lesão da colheita” e incremento da qualidade dos componentes finais. No nosso hospital, o facto de termos a segunda maternidade do país e uma Unidade de Cuidados Intensivos Neonatais e Pediátricos, veio de alguma maneira contribuir para a introdução desta técnica na nossa prática. Com este trabal...
Aqueous solutions of a copolymer derivative of a polyacrylamide showed very interesting behavior, that in which the system evolves from one kind of double criticality (pressure−hypercritical point) to another (temperature−hypercritical point) as polymer molecular weight decreases. While in the neighboring region of the former point one expects a change from contraction to expansion upon mixing with increasing p...
Phase diagrams of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAM) as well as of hydrophilically-modified copolymers in aqueous solution were determined. A high-accuracy He-Ne Laser scattering technique was used for the detection of operational spinodal (sp) and cloud-point (cp) curves. Polymer concentration was varied from 0.5 to 20 wt.%. In the case of copoly(PNIPAAM/vinylsaccharide) several different chain lengths were...
Concerning a revision about the mutual influence between the diabetes, the diabetic and his family, the author reviews the literature about the psychosocial area of the Family Physician content's work. It is also confirmed the high prevalency of the chronic disease and the importance of the family ecosystem, not only as support but also as problem to the bearing person of such type of disease. Studies of chroni...
