A estética representa uma qualidade cada vez mais requisitada pela sociedade na atualidade. A busca pela aparência ideal expandiu-se também na medicina dentária, aumentando as exigências por resultados perfeitos. A medicina dentária tem desenvolvido novas técnicas e novos materiais com a ambição de reproduzir as propriedades estéticas e funcionais dos dentes naturais. Os sistemas totalmente cerâmicos têm sido alvo de grande entusiasmo dado as suas características inerentes. O seu potencial na reabilitação oral estética tem derrotado as suas antecessoras metalocerâmicas. À semelhança do esmalte e da dentina, os sistemas totalmente cerâmicos exibem boas propriedades óticas de translucidez, opacidade, fluorescência e opalescência, resultado da interação com a luz. Ainda que não seja possível dissociar as propriedades óticas das propriedades mecânicas de um dente natural para o sucesso de uma restauração, a heterogeneidade das cerâmicas têm sido exitosas enquanto sistema que combina diferentes propriedades para diferentes indicações clínicas. Esta variabilidade deve-se a diferentes composições químicas e a diferentes processos de fabricação, entre outros, que acentuam ou atenuam qualidades em cada sistema totalmente cerâmico. Este trabalho pretende abordar e comparar os sistemas cerâmicos atuais (cerâmicas com base em sílica, cerâmicas com base de alumina, cerâmicas com base em zircónia) de acordo com as suas propriedades óticas e a consequente aplicação clínica tendo em conta as características dos dentes naturais.

In modern society, the body health is a very important issue to everyone. With the development of the science and technology, the new and developed body health monitoring device and technology will play the key role in the daily medical activities. This paper focus on making progress in the design of the wearable vital sign system. A vital sign monitoring system has been proposed and designed. The whole detection system is composed of signal collecting subsystem, signal processing subsystem, short-range wireless communication subsystem and user interface subsystem. The signal collecting subsystem is composed of light source and photo diode, after emiting light of two different wavelength, the photo diode collects the light signal reflected by human body tissue. The signal processing subsystem is based on the analog front end AFE4490 and peripheral circuits, the collected analog signal would be filtered and converted into digital signal in this stage. After a series of processing, the signal would be transmitted to the short-range wireless communication subsystem through SPI, this subsystem is mainly based on Bluetooth 4.0 protocol and ultra-low power System on Chip(SoC) nRF51822. Finally, the signal would be transmitted to the user end. After proposing and building the system, this paper focus on the research of the key component in the system, that is, the photo detector. Based on the study of the perovskite materials, a low temperature processed photo detector has been proposed, designed and researched. The device is made up of light absorbing layer, electron transporting and hole blocking layer, hole transporting and electron blocking layer, conductive substrate layer and metal electrode layer. The light absorbing layer is the important part of whole device, and it is fabricated by perovskite materials. After accepting the light, the electron-hole pair would be produced in this layer, and due to the energy level difference, the electron and hole produced would be transmitted to metal electrode and conductive substrate electrode through electron transporting layer and hole transporting layer respectively. In this way the response current would be produced. Based on this structure, the specific fabrication procedure including substrate cleaning; PEDOT:PSS layer preparation; pervoskite layer preparation; PCBM layer preparation; C60, BCP, and Ag electrode layer preparation. After the device fabrication, a series of morphological characterization and performance testing has been done. The testing procedure including film-forming quality inspection, response current and light wavelength analysis, linearity and response time and other optical and electrical properties testing. The testing result shows that the membrane has been fabricated uniformly; the device can produce obvious response current to the incident light with the wavelength from 350nm to 800nm, and the response current could be changed along with the light wavelength. When the light wavelength keeps constant, there exists a good linear relationship between the intensity of the response current and the power of the incident light, based on which the device could be used as the photo detector to collect the light information. During the changing period of the light signal, the response time of the device is several microseconds, which is acceptable working as a photo detector in our system. The testing results show that the device has good electronic and optical properties, and the fabrication procedure is also repeatable, the properties of the devices has good uniformity, which illustrates the fabrication method and procedure could be used to build the photo detector in our wearable system. Based on a series of testing results, the paper has drawn the conclusion that the photo detector fabricated could be integrated on the flexible substrate and is also suitable for the monitoring system proposed, thus made some progress on the research of the wearable monitoring system and device. Finally, some future prospect in system design aspect and device design and fabrication aspect are proposed.

O estudo desenvolveu-se no âmbito do sistema educativo angolano, com professores peritos de Química que lecionavam a 7a classe (12-13 anos de idade), com o objetivo de caraterizar o conhecimento desses professores sobre o currículo tendo em conta que o currículo de qualquer disciplina e de qualquer nível de ensino representa as aprendizagens consideradas relevantes pelos decisores devendo considerar as capacidades e aspirações do aluno, a língua, o meio e a cultura, a história e a arte, as exigências de trabalho e as interações de caráter societal. Dai que o professor, para poder planear as atividades de ensino e aprendizagem, tem, necessariamente, de conhecer o currículo no sentido de proporcionar ao educando os saberes da disciplina e explorar as articulações necessárias para a sua digna integração na complexa sociedade atual. Para o efeito, entrevistamos 16 professores selecionados como peritos. Num desenho metodológico exploratório, a técnica utilizada foi a entrevista e os dados foram submetidos à análise de conteúdo e categorizados. Os resultados revelaram que os professores peritos manifestaram um considerável domínio de conhecimento do currículo de Química e valorizaram a articulação vertical e horizontal dos seus conteúdos.

In modern society, blood donor motivation and recruitment is a fundamental part of health care delivery. Well defined and documented programmes exist throughout the world but new ideas are always welcome. The situation in the Sudan is different and much remains to be done by way of comparison with elsewhere. This thesis outlines the objectives of a study, how it was supported, sponsored and achieved. It describes briefly the geography of the Sudan, the source of Sudanese economy, climate, culture and historical backgrounds. The problems of existing services in the Sudan are reviewed and a brief account of the demographic characteristics of the Sudanese population is given. Two surveys done in West of Scotland and in the Sudan are described in detail. This work discloses and compares the positive motives that enhances giving of blood and the negative motives that hinders its donation. The comparison is between an Eastern Society with a voluntary motivation not fully activated because of lack of understanding and awareness of the need to give blood voluntarily for strangers and Western Society with a well established voluntary system of donation. An addition to this research was the investigation into the immunity to tetanus and hepatitis in the Sudanese population. An estimate of the percentage of individuals with detectable levels of hepatitis A and B antibodies and tetanus antibodies is included since there is a need to establish a plasmapheresis programme as part of a good Blood Transfusion Service for the procurement of specific immunoglobulin's. This work has revealed major differences between the West of Scotland and the Sudan and suggestions are made for their resolution. The main conclusion and comparison are summarised in Chapter 7. It is hoped that many of the suggestions in this thesis can be introduced in the Sudan at an early date.

For treating chronic pain, a multifactorial condition, is needed a suitable diagnosis which allows the differentiation in its many components. Diabetic neuropathy is a worldwide disease with great impact in the modern society. Diabetes may leads to the production of reactive oxygen species that are associated to oxidative stress, which may be a key factor in the development of diabetic neuropathy. The main goal is to inquire a potential association between chronic pain, diabetic neuropathy and oxidative stress. Thus, was performed a meta-analysis that permitted the causal evaluation between oxidative stress and diabetic neuropathy, and, a pain evaluation was accomplished in a convenience sample using validated surveys – Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) and Douleur Neuropathique 4 (DN4). Through the meta-analysis it was possible evaluate oxidative stress biomarkers, such lipid peroxidation, superoxide dismutase and catalase activities, and reduced glutathione. 9 studies were selected and all were performed in mouse models. The levels of lipid peroxidation were increased in all the studies, however the levels of the other biomarkers were diminished in diabetic models comparatively to healthy controls. In the evaluation of convenience sample, 84 surveys were collected along the four seasons: summer, autumn, winter and spring. The pain complaints were described in terms of local, intensity, impact, relief by medication and its effect on daily activities using BPI questionnaire. The scores obtained in BPI indicate the presence of moderate to severe pain, with increased complaints in autumn and spring, and implications in daily activities, transversal to all groups. To determine the main features associated with neuropathic pain it was used DN4 questionnaire. The DN4 indicated the presence of nearly 50% of patients with neuropathic pain. The results suggest that being female, the increased age and being retired can influence chronic pain and neuropathic pain in patients. As main conclusions, it was possible to verify an association between oxidative stress, and neuropathic pain, and, also, that weather conditions may influence the pain complaints and its prevalence.

Public involvement in healthcare is a prominent policy in countries across the economically developed world. A growing body of academic literature has focused on public participation, often presenting dichotomies between good and bad practice: between initiatives that offer empowerment and those constrained by consumerism, or between those which rely for recruitment on self-selecting members of the public, and those including a more broad-based, statistically representative group. In this paper I discuss the apparent tensions between differing rationales for participation, relating recent discussions about the nature of representation in public involvement to parallel writings about the contribution of laypeople’s expertise and experience. In the academic literature, there is, I suggest, a thin line between democratic justifications for involvement, suggesting a representative role for involved publics, and technocratic ideas about the potential ‘expert’ contributions of particular subgroups of the public. Analysing recent policy documents on participation in healthcare in England, I seek moreover to show how contemporary policy transcends both categories, demanding complex roles of involved publics which invoke various qualities seen as important in governing the interface between state and society. I relate this to social-theoretical perspectives on the relationship between governmental authority and citizens in late-modern society.

Um dos grandes desafios para a valorização de Portugal como destino cultural, assenta na agregação de toda a oferta que o nosso país apresenta. A música, por tudo aquilo que representa para o nosso país, apresenta as características certas para se tornar num elo de ligação entre a cultura e as pessoas. Nos últimos anos assistimos a uma alteração do consumo de música através de aplicações que emergiram e que alcançaram o seu espaço na sociedade moderna. Paralelamente, temos presenciado no nosso país a um aumento de concertos e espetáculos ao vivo, número de espectadores e de receitas de bilheteira, gerando receitas em torno dos 70 000 000 de euros. Beneficiando da experiência e conhecimento na área musical, este projeto visa desenvolver uma aplicação mobile que funcione como agregador de toda a informação relativa a espetáculos musicais ao vivo na área de Lisboa. Na base da construção do Plano de Negócios foi utilizado o programa FINICIA do Instituto de Apoio às Pequenas e Médias Empresas e à Inovação (IAPMEI) que revelou todas as conjeturas necessárias à sua realização e implementação. Os indicadores de validade do projeto, recolhidos através do questionário online com base no método Delphi, comprovaram a relevância da criação de uma aplicação mobile focada na área da música em Lisboa. De acordo com os indicadores de viabilidade utilizados neste projeto, nomeadamente a Taxa Interna de Rendibilidade (TIR), o Valor Atual Líquido (VAL) e o Período de Payback, foi possível determinar que o mesmo é economicamente viável.

La sociedad actual se enfrenta con problemas hasta ahora desconocidos que necesitan una rápida y efectiva solución. El progresivo aumento de la esperanza de vida ha dado lugar a que hoy en día nos encontremos con sociedades envejecidas y necesitadas de protección. Se habla incluso de la «cuarta edad» y de la aparición de un nuevo fenómeno demográfico denominado «envejecimiento del envejecimiento», esto es, el aumento de la población con edad superior a ochenta años. A demás, aunque la vejez no implica necesariamente enfermedad, la tasa de discapacidad crece con la edad. A lo que se debe añadir que muchas de estas personas tienen hijos discapacitados que, con toda probabilidad y debido a los avances médicos, sobrevivirán a sus ancianos padres y necesitarán medios materiales y/o personales para continuar con sus vidas. Para paliar estos problemas existe, entre otras medidas, el denominado contrato de alimentos; y especialmente útil para alcanzar este cometido resulta su configuración a favor de terceras personas. Pero su régimen jurídico cuando se celebra para beneficiar a una persona que no es parte contractual presenta importantes peculiaridades derivadas de la especial relación generada entre alimentista y alimentante. Estas particularidades serán objeto de análisis en este trabajo.
