Na sequência da Resolução da Assembleia da República n.º 90/2010, de 10 de agosto, o Ministério da Saúde incumbiu a Direção-Geral da Saúde de elaborar uma tabela nacional de funcionalidade para pessoas com doenças crónicas, de acordo com a Classificação Internacional de Funcionalidade, Incapacidade e Saúde (CIF) da Organização Mundial de Saúde (OMS). A Direção-Geral da Saúde, ainda em 2010, através do Departam...
Introdução: Os suportes vasculares restaurativos transitórios (sVRT) foram recentemente aprovados para intervenção coronária percutânea (ICP) na Europa e possuem propriedades muito inovadoras. O objetivo desta declaração de posição é rever criticamente a informação e os estudos com os sVRT disponíveis e contribuir para uma reflexão científica que promova o seu uso racional com orientações estruturadas para a su...

Publicado em "Journal of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine", vol. 7, supp. 1 (2013) ; The present work aims at evaluating the potential of recently developed 3D silk-based biotextile structures to support hASCs adhesion, proliferation and osteogenic differentiation. The 3D spacer structures were processed by using a knitting technology. Two knitted silk layers were assembled and spaced by a monofila...
BACKGROUND: Bioresorbable vascular scaffolds (BVS) were recently approved for percutaneous coronary intervention in Europe. The aim of this position statement is to review the information and studies on available BVS, to stimulate discussion on their use and to propose guidelines for this treatment option in Portugal. METHODS AND RESULTS: A working group was set up to reach a consensus based on current evidenc...

In this work the content in seven metals was analysed in samples from a leachate, collected in a sanitary intermunicipal landfill. Samples were collected in three stages of the wastewater treatment plant, just before the biological treatment, just after the biological treatment and from the ultrafiltration permeate. Pb, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Cd, Zn content was determined. Fe was the most abundant of the analysed meta...
Human Adipose-derived Stem Cells (hASCs) became an emerging possibility for tissue replacement therapies, such as bone tissue regeneration. Due to their osteogenic differentiation potential, easy isolation, expansion and in vitro proliferation, they have become a highly potential source of seed cells to be seeded in bone tissue engineering (TE) constructs and have demonstrated promising prospects in bone regene...
Introduction: Anatomical variations of the extensor tendons to the fingers are of great clinical interest, due to the relatively high frequency of tendon injury in clinical practice. Material and methods: During routine dissection of the right upper limb of a 67-year-old female preserved corpse, the extensor indicis proprius (EIP) muscle belly originated 3 independent tendons, each with a separate fascial sheat...
Therapy with bone marrow-derived cells has been used in ischemic patients with reported success. The aim of this study was to determine the therapeutic efficacy of fresh and frozen human umbilical cord blood cells (hUCB) in Wistar rats submitted to permanent occlusion of the left coronary artery. Three hours after myocardial infarction, 2 x 10(7) hUCB cells or vehicle were administered by intramyocardial inject...
