Water is one of the main sources human pathogenic microorganisms in developing countries. Therefore, new low-cost water treatment technologies are required to prevent public health problems. The goal this work was develop a purification technology using magnetic nanoparticles, be applied outlet point where contact time between two phases minimal. For that, six different nanomaterials were synthesised based on iron oxide (FeO): FeO, mixed oxides Fe with Mn, Co or Cu, composite FeO activated...
Obesity coupled with binge eating disorder (BED) is an increasing problem. Incorporation of treatment strategies that address both problems in people comorbid symptoms major interest. This study aimed to investigate the feasibility and preliminary long-term outcomes a brief emotion-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (EF-CBT) program. Ten women obesity BED received group intervention. Standardized outcome measures assess general distress, emotional processing, behavior, weight loss were...
This study aimed to assess the acute effects of two isoenergetic but micronutrient-diverse meals—a Mediterranean-like meal (MdM) and a fast food-like (FFM)—on autonomic nervous system (ANS), lung function, airway inflammation response. Forty-six participants were enrolled in randomized cross-over clinical trial, consuming meals: FFM (burger, fries, sugar-sweetened drink) MdM (vegetable soup, whole wheat pasta, salad, olive oil, sardines, fruit, water). Pupillometry...
Children spend a large part of their time at schools, which might be reflected as chronic exposure. Ultrafine particles (UFP) are generally associated with more severe toxicity compared to fine and coarse particles, due ability penetrate cell membranes. In addition, children tend susceptible UFP-mediated adults, various factors including undeveloped immune respiratory systems inhalation rates. Thus, the purpose this study was determine indoor UFP number concentrations in Portuguese primary...
Data from studies assessing the intake of potassium, and concomitant sodium-to-potassium ratio are limited. The aim this study was to evaluate potassium in 8–10 year-old children. A cross-sectional survey carried out January June 2014 data 163 children (81 boys) were included. Potassium estimated by 24-h urine collection coefficient creatinine used validate completeness collections. Urinary sodium also analysed. dietary recall provide information on sources potassium. Height weight measured...
The importance of hydration is undoubtable but reliable data on status and its relation with diet lacking.We aimed to evaluate the beverages food intake in children.A sample 172 (50% male), 7-11 year-old children was included this survey. Participants completed a 24 h urine collection; hours recall corresponding day collection applied, weight height were measured parents/caregivers fi lled lifestyle socio-demographic questionnaire. free water reserve used assess status. intakes compared...
The effect of a pre-exercise meal as countermeasure to exercise induced immunodepression is poorly known. Also, sedentary behavior associated with increased cardiometabolic risk but studies on immune changes are lacking. Therefore, we aimed assess: 1) the impact Mediterranean (MdM) compared fast-food type (FFM) exercise-induced immunological and 2) an acute period neuro-immune-endocrine status.
Prostate cancer is the second-most common malignancy in males. Despite more frequently metastasizing to bone, regional lymph nodes, and liver, brain can also be affected. These metastases simulate meningiomas, making diagnosis difficult. Here, we report case of a 62-year-old male with sudden onset confusion dysarthria spontaneous resolution but amnesia for event. On neurological exam, patient had left exophthalmos palpebral ptosis. He was referred emergency room, where he underwent...
