The InBIO Barcoding Initiative (IBI) Orthoptera dataset contains records of 420 specimens covering all the eleven families occurring in Portugal. Specimens were collected continental Portugal from 2005 to 2021 and morphologically identified species level by taxonomists. A total 119 corresponding about 77% orthopteran known
Contents The uterus plays an essential role in mammalian reproduction and is a target of several hormonal protocols used to improve fertility cattle. Many studies highlighted the importance e CG treatment following fixed‐time artificial insemination improving follicular growth, ovulation pregnancy rates Moreover, has been implicated angiogenesis, leading important changes uterine blood flow vascularisation. However, there still lack information regarding specific alterations induced by upon...
Introduction The EDE-Q-7 Portuguese version presented good reliability and validity in women fro the general population (Pereira et al. 2022). Objectives aim of our study was to analyse psychometric properties a sample during perinatal period. Methods Participants were 346 with mean age 31.68 years old (± 4.061; range: 18-42). 160 pregnant (second or third trimester) 186 post-partum (mean baby´s age=4.37 months 2.87; 1-12). They answered an online survey including Screen for Disordered...
Introduction Despite the increased knowledge about prevalence and consequences of eating disorders (ED), they continue to be underdiagnosed undertreated. Being more common in women childbearing age, perinatal period may play a decisive role incidence course these pathologies. The Screen for Disordered Eating (SDE) was developed screen ED primary care. Objectives Our aim analyze psychometric properties Portuguese Version SDE during period. Methods Participants were 346 with mean age 31.68...
Introduction Reduplicative paramnesia (RP) is a very rare content-specific delusional misidentification syndrome (DMS). RP entails the delusion that place, an object, or event has been duplicated exists in two different places at same time. thought to result from organic rather than psychiatric cause distinguishing it other DMS. It suggested damage right frontal and temporal lobe plays crucial role, although areas involved visuospatial processing have also reported. Objectives The aim of...
The orders Neuroptera and Raphidioptera include the species of insects known as lacewings snakeflies, respectively. In Portugal, these groups account for over 100 species, some which are very difficult to identify by morphological analysis. This work is first sample DNA sequence snakeflies Portugal. A reference collection was built with captured specimens that were identified morphologically. barcode sequences 658 bp obtained from 243 54 species. results showed most can be successfully...
The InBIO Barcoding Initiative (IBI) Hemiptera 01 dataset contains records of 131 specimens Hemiptera. Most have been morphologically identified to species or subspecies level and represent 88 in total. this correspond about 7.3% continental Portuguese hemipteran diversity. All were collected Portugal. Sampling took place from 2015 2019 are deposited the IBI collection at CIBIO, Research Center Biodiversity Genetic Resources.This increases knowledge on DNA barcodes distribution Six species,...
Background: Syphilis and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections are similarly transmitted commonly coexist. HIV affects the natural history, clinical manifestations, treatment response to syphilis. The study goal was determine risk factors associated with a positive anti-Treponema pallidum antibody test in HIV-infected patients. Methods: A case-control conducted from August December 2014 an infectious diseases care hospital Mexico City. Cases were males over 18 years, diagnosis for...
To study the central neural mechanisms involved in malignant ventricular arrhythmia, concentrations of norepinephrine cerebrospinal fluid were measured during behavioral stimulation and coronary artery occlusion. Pigs instrumented via thoracotomy with catheters to measure mean arterial pressure plasma catecholamines silk snares around left anterior descending for occlusion after recovery from surgery. Cannulas placed lateral ventricle brain sample fluid. Behavioral arousal was induced by...
This paper is a review of physiological and behavioral data on motor cortex stimulation (MCS) its role in persistent neuropathic pain. MCS has been widely used clinical medicine as tool for the management pain that does not respond satisfactorily to any kind conventional analgesia. Some important mechanisms involved nociceptive modulation still remains unclear. The aim this study was describe introduce effectiveness electrical treatment disease. ascending pathways are activated by peripheral...
Recent developments on ethanol-based DNA (etDNA) metabarcoding have shown that it is possible to extract meaningful information about macroinvertebrate community diversity and composition from the ethanol used preserve bulk samples. The major advantages of this molecular approach are reduced processing time costs, possibility keep specimens intact for other experiments. Yet, organisms with highly sclerotised exoskeleton or rare in sample been found release a lower amount into solution tend...
