Sistema de gestão e controlo da atribuição de endereçamento de rede

Com a evolução tecnológica, a informática assumiu um papel fulcral na nossa vida actual tanto numa vertente doméstica como para as mais variadíssimas organizações. As redes IP estão disseminadas por todo o lado, escritórios, habitações, estabelecimentos de ensino, espaços comerciais, com as mais diversas topologias e dimensões, que como qualquer recurso devem ser bem geridas. O presente projecto insere-se neste contexto, pretendendo criar um sistema para dar apoio no controlo e gestão de endereçamento IP dados por um servidor DHCP. A problemática central que este projecto pretende tratar é a detecção da configuração forçada de endereços IP por parte dos utilizadores, notificando tais situações aos administradores de rede. O sistema é constituído por vários componentes como Linux, MySQL, ISC DHCP, SNMP, PHP, APACHE e irá interagir com equipamentos de rede que possuam tabelas de endereços para que a informação, nestas encontradas, seja comparada com a informação dos endereços fornecidos pelo servidor DHCP. O sistema dá suporte a uma página web que pretende auxiliar algumas configurações e fornecer informações estatísticas sobre a rede.

Effects of lower limb strengthening on balance and function in persons who suffered a stroke

Introduction - Cerebrovascular diseases, and among them, cerebral vascular accidents, are one of the main causes of morbidity and disability at European Union countries. Clinical framework resulting from these diseases include important limitations in functional ability of the these patients Postural control dysfunctions are one of the most common and devastating consequences of a stroke interfering with function and autonomy and affecting different aspects of people’s life and contributing to decrease quality of life. Neurological physiotherapy plays a central role in the recovery of movement and posture, however it is necessary to study the efficacy of techniques that physiotherapists use to treat these problems. Objectives - The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of a physiotherapy intervention program, based on oriented tasks and strengthening of the affected lower limb, on balance and functionality of individuals who have suffered a stroke. In addition our study aimed to investigate the effect of strength training of the affected lower limb on muscle tone.

Stability of extemporaneously prepared captopril oral liquid formulation for paediatric patients

Captopril, an inhibitor of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), is used to treat medical conditions like hypertension and heart failure, and it is usually administered in tablet form for adults. Since this dosage form is not recommended for infants and children up to 6 years, hospital pharmacies have to prepare liquid formulations for oral administration of captopril. Traditionally, concentration of captopril used in the formulations is 1mg/ml. The problem is that captopril is prone to oxidation, and its stability in solution is affected by pH, concentration of captopril, the presence of oxygen or metal ions. The influence of different formulation ingredients on the properties of physical and chemical stability of captopril in liquid preparations has been evaluated. Main of the study: to evaluate the stability of captopril for 30 days when formulated in a 1 mg/ml suspension adjuvanted with citric acid.
