Abstract. aep
1) The study assessed the appropriateness of 174 patient admissions to an internal medicine ward in Portugal using the prospective Appropriateness Evaluation Protocol (AEP).
2) They found that 17.7% of admissions were inappropriate, similar to other studies in the Iberian Peninsula. The most common reason for appropriateness was intravenous therapy.
3) Patients admitted on weekends had significantly longer hospital stays than those admitted on weekdays, possibly due to lack of elective care on weekends.
Abstract. legibilidad
This study analyzed the legibility of epicrisis reports for 108 deceased patients in the department of internal medicine at a hospital in Portugal in 2002. The reports were written by 13 different doctors, with only 6 being typewritten and fully legible. 30 reports (27.77%) had some degree of illegibility, though only 1 was fully unclear. No reports were completely illegible. Legibility defects were slightly higher for patients with shorter average stays of 5 days or less before death. The study concludes that introducing electronic epicrisis reports could help address legibility issues, and that staffing levels on weekends did not influence mortality or report quality.

Abstract Infections on Internal medicne
This study aimed to understand the magnitude and characteristics of infectious diseases among patients admitted to the internal medicine ward of a Portuguese hospital over one month. A total of 25 out of 73 patients admitted during the study period had infectious diseases, representing 41 infectious episodes. The most common infections were urinary tract infections (44%) and pneumonia (29%). The majority (83%) of cultures grew pathogens, most commonly E. coli (21%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (11%), and fungi (11%). Infections increased patient mortality by 10% and length of stay by 3.5 days compared to other patients. Pressure ulcers accounted for 12% of infections and were all hospital-acquired. Empiric antibiotic therapy was ineffective in
Clinical trials
1) The document summarizes key aspects of evaluating clinical trials, including types of trials and potential biases.
2) Clinical trials aim to test interventions in a controlled manner to determine safety and effectiveness. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are considered the gold standard for limiting biases.
3) However, biases can still influence trials in many ways, such as through selection of participants, administration of interventions, measurement of outcomes, and reporting/publication of results. It is important to critically appraise trials to assess risk of biases.
Abstract. rickettsiosis
This study analyzed 30 patients admitted to a hospital in southern Portugal between 1998-2003 with spotted fever. Spotted fever is endemic to the Mediterranean region and transmitted by ticks. The average age was 43 years and 70% were male. Most cases occurred between June-August. Rural environments and contact with dogs were identified as risk factors. The most common symptoms were fever (100%) and rash (90%). Half of patients developed hepatitis and 40% thrombocytopenia. Doxycycline treatment was started early in 93% of patients and all patients recovered well with an average hospital stay of 5.9 days. The study concludes that spotted fever is common in the region likely due to rural areas, treatment with doxycy

This is the case: I found interesting to analyze if there were another factors not related with the requirements of acute care causing innappropriateness. Results showed facts, from my perspective, not appropriate to be changed. SADEMI 2001: Escritura Médica (Abstract submitted)
This abstract was accepted, the Director Medicine making despective comments about importance, pertinence and Interest of the study. During the Congress, it was a study calling the attention of many assistens. My boss (Director of Medicine and friend), mantained his position: it´s a "cute" study to be presented on a regional meeting, but that´s all. the study was published as an original article on the Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine, presenting a high individual impact factor. Chiefs can also be wrong.

Protocolo de estudio de pluripatología
Este documento contiene un protocolo de estudio de pluripatología para un paciente. Recopila datos personales del paciente como nombre, edad, sexo y número de historia clínica. También incluye información sobre ingresos hospitalarios previos, categorías de patologías crónicas, comorbilidades según la escala de Charlson y detalles sobre la continuidad asistencial tras el último alta hospitalaria.
El paciente pluripatológico en los Servicios de Medicina Interna
This study was carried out as a part of a multicenter-based, global study to find out the real weight of patients with high comorbidity admitted to the wards of Internal Medicine, thus making possible developing strategies to improve delivery of care and acesibility to health care to avoid progression of any intercurrent condition that, utreated, alter the fragile balance of the clinical status of the affected, requirring an admission on an acute care unit.
The first concurrent AEP 2001
The Appropriateness Evaluation protocol (AEP) presents as a limiting factor, the need to do long, time-sparing, studies, which provides information of past events. As we had obtained a very good feedback from this tool, a one-day-study was done, with patients inward at the time and compared results with the other versions (preospective and restrospective AEP). Although data were not useful for stattistic study, they do presented a view of inappropriateness and its causes with a minimum investment in terms of time, thus favouring rapid and synchronic interventions to correct this parameter.
Hyperthyroidism presenting as a diarrheic syndrome
One of the first persons I attended as an independent Physician on my third year of Internship. I found the clinical feature extremely vague, since data collected before the admission were focused on diarrhea, weight loss, anemia, and blood tests suggesting a mild liver dysfunction with an INR of 5 at admission. All these data, together with the fact of the patient being 56yo, made me think in an intestinal neosplasm. results of Thyroid function tests were avalaible after an important part of the workup had been done.
The case, besides presenting clinical interest, is the startpoint of a polemic about the need of considering delay of the resultsof tests when a diagnostic process is going to be initiated.

Insulin theraphy on DM type 2: What´s the evidence?
Este documento discute evidências sobre o uso de insulina no tratamento de diabetes mellitus tipo 2. Apresenta estudos que mostram que o controle glicêmico estrito com insulina ou sulfonilureias reduz o risco de complicações microvasculares. Também mostra que a adição de insulina quando a terapia máxima com sulfonilureias é inadequada pode melhorar o controle glicêmico sem aumentar o risco de hipoglicemia ou ganho de peso. Além disso, a combinação de insulina com sulfonilureias

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
