TL;DR: A more comprehensive neuroanatomical model of the default-mode network (DMN) including subcortical structures such as the basal forebrain, cholinergic nuclei, anterior and mediodorsal thalamic nuclei is proposed and found that thalamus and basal fore brain are central to the DMN.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The results indicate that Tg(CaMKII-hA2AR) rats exhibit depressive-like behavior, hyperlocomotion, and altered exploratory behavior, which may explain the depressive signs found in aging, chronic stress, and Alzheimer’s disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Patients With Undetermined Stroke Have Increased Atrial Fibrosis: A Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study.
Ana Catarina Fonseca,Pedro Nascimento Alves,Nuno Inácio,João Pedro Marto,Miguel Viana-Baptista,Teresa Pinho-e-Melo,José M. Ferro,Ana G. Almeida +7 more
TL;DR: The LA phenotype that was found in patients with undetermined cause supports the hypothesis that an atrial disease may be associated with stroke.
Book ChapterDOI

João Balsa,Pedro Neves,Isa Brito Félix,Mara Pereira Guerreiro,Pedro Nascimento Alves,Maria Beatriz Carmo,Diogo Marques,A.A. Dias,Adriana Henriques,Ana Paula Cláudio +9 more
TL;DR: A version of an application prototype developed in the context of the VASelfCare project works as an intelligent anthropomorphic virtual relational agent that has the role of assisting older people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in medication adherence and lifestyle changes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Undetermined stroke genesis and hidden cardiomyopathies determined by cardiac magnetic resonance
Ana Catarina Fonseca,João Pedro Marto,Daniela Pimenta,Tatiana Guimarães,Pedro Nascimento Alves,Nuno Inácio,Miguel Viana-Baptista,Teresa Pinho e Melo,Fausto J. Pinto,José M. Ferro,Ana G. Almeida +10 more
TL;DR: Although rare, cardiomyopathies should be considered as a possible cause of ischemic stroke classified as of undetermined etiology after standard evaluation.
