Probing the aurone scaffold against Plasmodium falciparum: design, synthesis and antimalarial activity

  • Authors: Carrasco MP, dos Santos DJ, Gois A, Gonçalves L, Guedes RC, Gut J, Hänscheid T, Machado M, Moreira R, Newton AS, Nogueira F, Rosenthal PJ
  • Publication Year: 2014
  • Journal: European Journal of Medicinal Chemistry
  • Link: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24813880

A library comprising 44 diversely substituted aurones derivatives was synthesized by straightforward aldol condensation reactions of benzofuranones and the appropriately substituted benzaldehydes. Microwave enhanced synthesis using palladium catalyzed protocols was introduced as a powerful strategy for extending the chemical space around the aurone scaffold.

Sample size for estimating a binomial proportion: comparison of different methods.

  • Authors: Gonçalves L, Pascoal C, Pires A, Rosario de Oliveira M
  • Journal: Journal of Applied Statistics
  • Link: https://apps.webofknowledge.com/full_record.do?product=UA&search_mode=GeneralSearch&qid=7&SID=T1zdDDEYC1eBxhDSCne&page=1&doc=2

The poor performance of the Wald method for constructing confidence intervals (CIs) for a binomial proportion has been demonstrated in a vast literature. The related problem of sample size determination needs to be updated and comparative studies are essential to understanding the performance of alternative methods.

Urban Planning and Health Inequities: Looking in a Small-Scale in a City of Cape Verde

  • Authors: Alves D, Amado M, Cabral J, Correia A, Craveiro I, Delgado AP, Gonçalves L, Lapão LV, Santos Z, Simões R
  • Publication Year: 2015
  • Journal: PLoS One
  • Link: http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0142955

The lack of high-quality data to support evidence-based policies continues to be a concern in African cities, which present marked social, economic and cultural disparities that may differently impact the health of the groups living in different urban contexts. This study explores three urban units—formal, transition and informal—of the capital of Cape Verde, in terms of overweight/obesity, cardiometabolic risk, physical activity and other aspects related to the urban environment.

Healthcare access and the patterns of maternal health care utilization among poor and non-poor women living in urban areas in Portugal

  • Authors: Craveiro I, Ferrinho P, Gonçalves L, Sousa B
  • Publication Year: 2013
  • Journal: Health
  • Link: http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?paperID=40475

Studies on attitudes and practices are increasingly used but not specifically related to the motivations for the use of reproductive health care among women of fertile age, living in urban areas and in different social contexts.

Clinical and laboratory features in acute generalized pustular psoriasis: a retrospective study of 34 patients

  • Authors: Borges-Costa J, Filipe P, Gonçalves L, Marques Gomes M, Silva R, Soares de Almeida L
  • Journal: American Journal of Clinical Dermatology
  • Link: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=Clinical+and+laboratory+features+in+acute+generalized+pustular+psoriasis%3A+a+retrospective+study+of+34+patients

BACKGROUND:
Acute generalized pustular psoriasis (AGPP) is a rare variant of psoriasis that can be lethal without proper treatment. It can be caused by the withdrawal of corticosteroids and, among its extra-cutaneous manifestations, liver abnormalities are frequently under-reported or attributed to drugs.
