Immunometabolism: Bridging the Gap Between Immunology and Nutrition
It is common ground that all cells require nutrients to develop, differentiate, and maintain their inherent activities. However, the idea that cells can rapidly alter their metabolism to perform specific functions under the pressure of different microenvironments was just brought to the light. These changes are particularly important for immune cells, as they need to respond quickly to opportunistic pathogens or tissue damage and prevent their spread. The field that investigates the interplay between immunology and metabolism is so-called immunometabolism and has supported the hypothesis that all diseases have a metabolic aspect.
XV Mediterranean Conference on Medical and Biological Engineering and Computing – MEDICON 2019
This book gathers the proceedings of MEDICON 2019 – the XV Mediterranean Conference on Medical and Biological Engineering and Computing – which was held in September 26-28, 2019, in Coimbra, Portugal. A special emphasis has been given to practical findings, techniques and methods, aimed at fostering an effective patient empowerment, i.e. to position the patient at the heart of the health system and encourages them to be actively involved in managing their own healthcare needs. The book reports on research and development in electrical engineering, computing, data science and instrumentation, and on many topics at the interface between those disciplines. It provides academics and professionals with extensive knowledge on cutting-edge techniques and tools for detection, prevention, treatment and management of diseases. A special emphasis is given to effective advances, as well as new directions and challenges towards improving healthcare through holistic patient empowerment.
Active Aging and Disease Management
Population aging and the associated burden of chronic diseases are one of the main challenges in public health worldwide. This Research Topic on "Active Aging and Disease Management" provides a comprehensive overview of population aging through fourteen comprehensive papers. Chapter 1 discusses an overview of health systems in active and healthy aging, while Chapter 2 focuses on the role of lifestyles, exercise and new technologies. Chapter 3 debates psychological and cognitive issues in aging and finally in Chapter 4, an older people self assessment is proposed and the role of communities and supporters are highlighted. We think that real social and health care integration at community level could be the key point to deliver effective health promotion and preventive intervention. Enjoy the reading!

Interdisciplinaridade e Universidade
A riqueza teórica e a polissemia do conceito de interdisciplinaridade, cujas fronteiras surgem com frequência mal definidas em relação a conceitos afins como a multidisciplinaridade e a transdisciplinaridade, têm contribuído para que nem sempre sejam claros os seus contornos metodológicos. Ainda assim, é crescente a convicção entre académicos e investigadores sobre a necessidade de romper com as limitações epistemológicas e metodológicas do quadro disciplinar tradicional. A coexistência de múltiplos olhares sobre a mesma problemática, condição essencial para a compreensão da realidade na sua complexidade, tem vindo a ganhar cada vez mais espaço entre investigadores e pr...
