Diagnosis of Tinea pedis and onychomycosis in patients from Portuguese National...
Viegas, Carla; Sabino, Raquel; Parada, Helena; Brandão, João; Carolino, Elisabete; Rosado, Laura; Verissimo, CristinaABSTRACT - Tinea pedis and onychomycosis are two rather diverse clinical manifestations of superficial fungal infections, and their etiologic agents may be dermatophytes, non-dermatophyte moulds or yeasts. This study was designed to statistically describe the data obtained as results of analysis conducted during a four year period on the frequency of Tinea pedis and onychomycosis and their etiologic agents. A q...

Isolates from hospital environments are the most virulent of the Candida paraps...
Sabino, Raquel; Sampaio, Paula; Carneiro, Catarina; Rosado, Laura; Pais, CéliaBackground: Candida parapsilosis is frequently isolated from hospital environments, like air and surfaces, and causes serious nosocomial infections. Molecular studies provided evidence of great genetic diversity within the C. parapsilosis species complex but, despite their growing importance as pathogens, little is known about their potential to cause disease, particularly their interactions with phagocytes. In...
Assessment of fungal contamination in a group of Lisbon's gymnasiums with a swi...
Viegas, Carla; Alves, Célia; Carolino, Elisabete; Pinheiro, Catarina; Rosado, Laura; Santos, Carlos SilvaThe study’s main purpose was the assessment of the environmental fungal contamination, the exploration of possible associations between related environmental variables and the study of the relationship between fungal contamination of air and surfaces. A descriptive study was developed based upon air and surfaces monitoring for fungal contamination in ten indoor gymnasiums with a swimming pool located in Lisbon’...
Possíveis implicações da contaminação fúngica num aviário
Viegas, Carla; Viegas, Susana; Veríssimo, C.; Rosado, Laura; Santos, Carlos SilvaIntrodução – Apesar de em Portugal se verificar o aumento da indústria da produção de aves para consumo humano, apenas alguns estudos incidem sobre a qualidade do ar interior e as implicações da sua degradação. Objectivos – Descrever a contaminação fúngica num aviário, analisar possíveis associações com a temperatura ambiente e a humidade relativa e o possível impacto na saúde dos consumidores e trabalhadores d...
New polymorphic microsatellite markers able to distinguish among Candida paraps...
Sabino, Raquel; Sampaio, Paula; Rosado, Laura; Stevens, David A.; Clemons, Karl V.; Pais, CéliaAmong the Candida species causing bloodstream infections, Candida parapsilosis is one of the most frequently isolated. The objective of the present work was the identification of new microsatellite loci able to distinguish among C. parapsilosis isolates. DNA sequences with trinucleotide repeats were selected from the C. parapsilosis genome database. PCR primer sets flanking the microsatellite repeats were desig...
The Sensitivity and Resistance of Yeasts Isolated from Women with Vulvovaginal ...
Moallaie, Hossein; Verissimo, Cristina; Brando, João; Rosado, LauraBackground and Purpose: Due to the ever-increasing use of antifungal drugs especially those of azole group, the prevalence of recurrent forms of vaginal infections and the number of drug-resistant yeasts are on the rise. Therefore, the rpesent study is conducted to investigate the sensitivity and resistance of yeasts isolated from vaginal infections to antifungal drugs. Methods and Materials: This cross-sectio...
Prevalência de fungos nas superfícies: o caso dos ginásios com piscina
Viegas, Carla; Alves, Célia; Carolino, Elisabete; Rosado, Laura; Santos, Carlos SilvaIntrodução - Os ginásios com piscina poderão constituir um ambiente potenciador da disseminação fúngica, devido não só às variáveis ambientais, como a temperatura e humidade do ar, mas também devido ao crescente número de frequentadores desses espaços e às medidas higio-sanitárias aplicadas. Objectivos - Descrever os fenómenos ambientais da contaminação fúngica no pavimento dos ginásios com piscina e explorar e...
Monitorização da qualidade das areias em zonas balneares: relatório
Brandão, João; Rosado, Carmen; Silva, Cecília; Alves, Célia; Almeida, Cristina; Carrola, Cristina; Veríssimo, Cristina; Noronha, Graça; Parada, HelenaA qualidade ambiental das praias tem vindo a adquirir uma importância crescente entre os critérios de escolha de destino turístico. Apesar de nos últimos anos a legislação ter evoluído no sentido do ordenamento da zona costeira e do tratamento de águas residuais, o único indicador da qualidade relacionado com a saúde publica que pode permitir aos utentes uma escolha orientada, é a qualidade da água balnear. Ju...
