Abstract:

Reactive species (RS)- induced OS is detrimental to spermatozoa, leading to the damage of many biomolecules, such as lipids, proteins and DNA. Several lifestyle factors, such as alcohol and tobacco consumption, are known to induce OS and have been studied for their negative effects on male reproductive system. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of acute lifestyle changes, namely alcohol and tobac

Mestrado em Biomedicina Molecular<br>Infertility is a clinical condition that affects about 15% of reproductive-aged couples worldwide. Half of these cases are due to male factors. A large percentage of male infertility cases are idiopathic, however, in the last years the influence of oxidative stress in decreased semen quality has been discussed. The lifestyle, including consumption of alcohol, tobacco, drugs and the alteration in circadian cycle, has been proposed as responsible for the increase of reactive oxygen species (ROS). This increase leads to an alteration of the balance between oxi

Abstract:
Land contamination is an issue of concern in land regeneration and the built environment. To ensure the sustainability of the built environment, it is important that the risk to human health due to land contamination is addressed adequately. Current generic assessment criteria (GAC) values used in the assessment of contaminated land in the United Kingdom (UK) are very conservative. Although this is protective of human health, it may lead to un-necessary and costly remediation of land or result in land being left un-used. This highlights the need for improved understanding of human exposure to

Abstract:
Afferent feedback from arterial baroreceptors modulates sensorimotor responses, but it is unknown whether it can also interfere with high-order cognition. In Study One, electrocutaneous stimuli (ranging from non-painful to very painful) were randomly delivered across the cardiac cycle. Pain ratings were highest at R+300 ms, whereas nociceptive reflex responses did not vary. Study Two followed up these findings by presenting the stimuli in blocks of either ascending or descending intensities. Nociceptive responses to painful stimuli were attenuated during systole; pain ratings did not vary rega

Abstract:
Most people associate stress with negative feelings. This is the physical and psychological response of the body that helps us better cope with a critical situation. The body releases hormones that speed up the heart rate and bring the muscles into full combat readiness. But chronic stress can have severe consequences. Stress can be caused by everyday worries, problems at work, or an accidental quarrel with relatives. More serious life circumstances, such as a doctor's disappointing diagnosis, war, or the death of a loved one, lead to chronic stress. Stress affects a person's emotions, mood, a

The frequent non-availability of an automated oracle makes software testing a tedious manual task which involves the expensive performance of a human oracle. Despite this, the literature concerning the automated test data generation has mainly focused on the achievement of structural code coverage, without simultaneously considering the reduction of human oracle cost. One source of human oracle cost is the unreadability of machine-generated test inputs, which can result in test scenarios that are hard to comprehend and time-consuming to verify.
