BACKGROUND: Pseudomyxoma peritonei is an uncommon condition with an estimated incidence of one to two per million (worldwide) per year. It is characterized by the peritoneal deposition of mucinous tumors, most commonly of the appendix, and occasionally from the ovary, coupled by mucinous ascites. CASE PRESENTATION: We report the case of a 76-year-old woman who presented with increased abdominal girth and dyspn...
A exploração caprina de leite tem evoluído no sentido de alguma intensificação, com recurso a raças de elevado potencial produtivo, de que é exemplo a raça Murciana- Granadina. O leite constitui a principal fonte de receita destas explorações. Complementarmente, vendem animais para carne e, as de melhor nível genético, animais para reprodutores. Analisaram-se os pesos de 241 cabritos da raça Murciana-Granadina,...

Background and Aims: The ability of Influenza A (infA) viruses to counteract and manipulate the host response to infection is well acknowledged. In addition, the activation of the PI3K/Akt survival pathway by the infA NS1 protein has been described as one of the strategies to delay the apoptotic response of the infected cell. As influenza B (infB) viruses differ genetically and phenotypically from infA viruses,...

In this work, the effect of high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) treatment of wine, as substitute of SO2, was evaluated by quantification of microbial load, antioxidant capacity, and colour. For this purpose, red wine of two consecutive harvests (2008 and 2009) was produced without the addition of SO2. At the end of the alcoholic fermentation, the wine was pressurized at 350 MPa for 20 min at 20 ºC. After nine month...
