50 Anos do ensino formal das profissões de diagnóstico e terapêutica em 110 anos de história

Os 50 Anos de ensino das profissões de Diagnóstico e Terapêutica tem registado uma evolução muito significativa nos últimos 30 anos. A formação tem por base as competências facultando a capacitação dos profissionais no desenvolvimento das suas atividades profissionais. A formação de profissionais de Diagnóstico e Terapêutica constitui uma mais valia para a prestação de cuidados de saúde. É necessário criar estratégias para que a procura, por parte de candidatos, seja proporcional ao número de vagas disponíveis. É nosso objetivo suscitar uma reflexão conjunta sobre estratégias a adoptar face à realidade atual!

Growth of the [110] oriented TiO2 nanorods on ITO substrates by sputtering technique for dye-sensitized solar cells

TiO2 films have been deposited on ITO substrates by dc reactive magnetron sputtering technique. It has been found that the sputtering pressure is a very important parameter for the structure of the deposited TiO2 films. When the pressure is lower than 1 Pa, the deposited has a dense structure and shows a preferred orientation along the [101] direction. However, the nanorod structure has been obtained as the sputtering pressure is higher than 1 Pa. These nanorods structure TiO2 film shows a preferred orientation along the [110] direction. The x-ray diffraction and the Raman scattering measurements show both the dense and the nanostructure TiO2 films have only an anatase phase, no other phase has been obtained. The results of the SEM show that these TiO2 nanorods are perpendicular to the ITO substrate. The TEM measurement shows that the nanorods have a very rough surface. The dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) have been assembled using these TiO2 nanorod films prepared at different sputtering pressures as photoelectrode. And the effect of the sputtering pressure on the properties of the photoelectric conversion of the DSSCs has been studied.

Síntesis, caracterización y ensayos cinéticos del nanocomposite RuO2/TiO2/MWCNT/Pt en la producción fotocatalítica de combustibles solares bajo iluminación UV y VIS

Se prepararon partículas de nanocomposites basados en TiO2 y nanotubos de carbono multicapa platinizados para la obtención de combustibles solares. Se evaluó la actividad fotocatalítica del material en la producción de hidrógeno, en procesos de degradación de ácido fórmico, y en la obtención de hidrocarburos a partir de la reducción de CO2 en agua. Los nanocomposites fueron sintetizados por medio de la técnica sol-gel. Se estudió el efecto de la proporción y el diámetro de los nanotubos de carbono en la actividad del material bajo iluminación ultravioleta y visible. Se estudió el efecto de la adición de RuO2 (0,5% wt.) en la actividad bajo iluminación visible. Los materiales fueron caracterizados por ATR, XRD, BET, HRTEM y SEM. Se obtuvieron sólidos macroporosos, con contenido de fase anatasa superior al 99% y tamaño cristalino comprendido entre 15 y 21 nm. Los resultados cinéticos mostraron una producción óptima de hidrógeno para el composite TiO2/(5wt.%)MWCNT/Pt(60-80 nm), con eficiencia cuántica y eficiencia energética de 1,27% y 0,27%, respectivamente. En el caso de radiación visible, la producción de hidrógeno fue nula para los composites TiO2/MWCNT/Pt, mientras que para el sistema RuO2/TiO2/MWCNT/Pt se observó que la adicción de MWCNT inhibía la actividad fotocatalítica del composite RuO2/TiO2 en la región del visible. Por otra parte, en los ensayos de reducción de CO2 no se detectó ningún producto de reacción.

Registries in rheumatological and musculoskeletal conditions. Paediatric Behçet's disease: an international cohort study of 110 patients. One-year follow-up data.

OBJECTIVE: To set-up an international cohort of patients suspected with Behçet's disease (BD). The cohort is aimed at defining an algorithm for definition of the disease in children. METHODS: International experts have defined the inclusion criteria as follows: recurrent oral aphthosis (ROA) plus one of following-genital ulceration, erythema nodosum, folliculitis, pustulous/acneiform lesions, positive pathergy test, uveitis, venous/arterial thrombosis and family history of BD. Onset of disease is <16 years, disease duration is ≤3 years, future follow-up duration is ≥4 years and informed consent is obtained. The expert committee has classified the included patients into: definite paediatric BD (PED-BD), probable PED-BD and no PED-BD. Statistical analysis is performed to compare the three groups of patients. Centres document their patients into a single database. RESULTS: At January 2010, 110 patients (56 males/54 females) have been included. Mean age at first symptom: 8.1 years (median 8.2 years). At inclusion, 38% had only one symptom associated with ROA, 31% had two and 31% had three or more symptoms. A total of 106 first evaluations have been done. Seventeen patients underwent the first-year evaluation, and 36 had no new symptoms, 12 had one and 9 had two. Experts have examined 48 files and classified 30 as definite and 18 as probable. Twenty-six patients classified as definite fulfilled the International Study Group criteria. Seventeen patients classified as probable did not meet the international criteria. CONCLUSION: The expert committee has classified the majority of patients in the BD group although they presented with few symptoms independently of BD classification criteria.

Structural and functional characterization of (110)-oriented epitaxial La2/3Ca1/3MnO3 electrodes and SrTiO3 tunnel barriers

La2/3Ca1/3MnO3 (LCMO) films have been deposited on (110)-oriented SrTiO3 (STO) substrates. X-ray diffraction and high-resolution electron microscopy reveal that the (110) LCMO films are epitaxial and anisotropically in-plane strained, with higher relaxation along the [1¿10] direction than along the [001] direction; x-ray absorption spectroscopy data signaled the existence of a single intermediate Mn3+/4+ 3d-state at the film surface. Their magnetic properties are compared to those of (001) LCMO films grown simultaneously on (001) STO substrates It is found that (110) LCMO films present a higher Curie temperature (TC) and a weaker decay of magnetization when approaching TC than their (001) LCMO counterparts. These improved films have been subsequently covered by nanometric STO layers. Conducting atomic-force experiments have shown that STO layers, as thin as 0.8 nm, grown on top of the (110) LCMO electrode, display good insulating properties. We will show that the electric conductance across (110) STO layers, exponentially depending on the barrier thickness, is tunnel-like. The barrier height in STO (110) is found to be similar to that of STO (001). These results show that the (110) LCMO electrodes can be better electrodes than (001) LCMO for magnetic tunnel junctions, and that (110) STO are suitable insulating barriers.
