  1. Prospective observational study of adenoidal biofilms in a paediatric population and their clinical implications. INTRODUCTION: Adenoids are nasopharyngeal lymphoid tissue with a relevant role in host defence against infection of upper respiratory tract. Nevertheless, adenoids are also a reservoir of microorganisms that can cause infections of upper respiratory tract and otitis particularly in children. OBJECTIVE: Evaluate and compare the association between biofilm assembly on adenoids and the incidence of r. 2018.

  2. Multilocus sequencing typing as a tool to investigate childhood Haemophilus influenzae invasive disease in Portugal. Background: Haemophilus influenzae is an important cause of serious childhood invasive disease despite the use of the vaccine against serotype b strains (Hib). Six capsular types, a-f, have been identified to date, although most of strains are non-capsulated (NC). Multilocus Sequencing Typing (MLST) is a powerful method that allows a precise and unambiguous characterization of H. influenzae genoty. 2016.

  3. Vigilância laboratorial e epidemiológica da infeção a Haemophilus influenzae, após a introdução da vacina para o H. influenzae serotipo b no Programa Nacional de Vacinação: apresentação de estudos realizados no INSA, 1989-2013. O Haemophilus influenzae (H. influenzae) é um microrganismo Gram negativo cujo nicho ecológico é o trato respiratório humano. Enquanto a maior parte da população de H. influenzae existe como agente colonizador da nasofaringe, ainda continua a ser, globalmente, um patogénico com significado na clínica. É responsável por tanto por infeções localizadas das mucosas, como é o caso da otite média, ou da. 2013. Bajanca-Lavado, Maria Paula. http://hdl.handle.net/10400.18/2905.
  4. Alteração à epidemiologia da Infeção a Haemophilus influenzae, após a introdução da vacina para o H. influenzae serotipo b. Análise de estudos realizados no INSA, 1989-2012. Resumo: O Haemophilus influenzae (H. influenzae) é um microrganismo Gram negativo cujo nicho ecológico é o trato respiratório humano. Para além de colonizar a nasofaringe de pessoas saudáveis, o H. influenzae é normalmente responsável por infeções respiratórias e ainda infeções invasivas graves como a meningite e a septicemia, principalmente nas crianças (Tristram, 2007).
