- Abordagem à pessoa com lesões de pele associadas à humidadePublication . Almeida, Armando; Sousa, Filomena; Grilo, Liliana; Alves, Paulo; Ramos, PauloA preservação da integridade cutânea está considerada, à luz dos conhecimentos atuais, como um forte indicador da qualidade dos cuidados de saúde prestados, nomeadamente ao nível da prevenção de lesões. As Lesões de Pele Associadas à Humidade (LPAH) são causadas pela prolongada exposição da pele a fluidos e seus constituintes, de várias fontes. Existe um conjunto de mecanismos que interagem entre si, de forma a manter a homeostasia cutânea, impedindo a sua lesão. Contudo, em situações agudas ou crónicas, este equilíbrio fica comprometido e é necessária a intervenção externa para a prevenção e tratamento das lesões cutâneas. A APTFeridas elaborou este documento, com o apoio da 3M, como guia de orientação para as melhores práticas de prevenção e tratamento de Lesões Associadas à Humidade da Pele. Neste documento, para além de uma revisão da literatura, também encontrará instrumentos que ajudam na prática clínica, constituindo uma mais valia para a melhoria dos cuidados prestados à pessoa em risco ou com lesão de pele associada à humidade.

- Determinants of brand love in wine tourismPublication . Dias, Alvaro; Sousa, Bruno; Santos, Vasco; Ramos, Paulo; Madeira, ArlindoWine tourism provides a multisensory experience through various wine tourism activities. It also adds value to the regions and their producers by enhancing the wine knowledge and sensory experience of the visitors. This study explores the determinants of brand love in wine tourism. Using survey data from wine tourists in Portugal, a structural equation modelling was performed to test the conceptual model. An Importance-performance matrix analysis was also used to obtain additional insights. The results show that the wine tourism enhances brand love. This implies that emotions (i.e., a sense of belonging) towards the overall location is associated with the satisfaction and the quality perception that the winery exhibits. Furthermore, although the consumer’s active participation in wine tourism does not impact brand love directly, its influences occur through the mediating effect of the relation quality. From an interdisciplinary managerial perspective, the present study provides insights into tourism management (i.e., wine tourism) and marketing (i.e., brand management and consumer behaviour).
- Developing a wine experience scale: a new strategy to measure holistic behaviour of wine touristsPublication . Santos, Vasco; Ramos, Paulo; Almeida, Nuno; Santos-Pavón, EnriqueThis study develops a scale to measure wine tourism experiences and was tested in Portugal, in two of the main wine tourism centres: Porto and Madeira. The wine experience scale combines experience traits with the traditional approach to scales related to wine tourism. The development of the scale follows the most recognised validated procedures. Data were collected from a total of 647 international wine tourists in the wine cellars of the two main fortified wine tourism regions visiting areas: Porto and Madeira. Structural equation modelling (SEM-AMOS) was used as the main analysis and validation tool. The resulting 18-item wine experience scale comprises four major dimensions: (1) Wine storytelling, (2) wine tasting excitement, (3) wine involvement, and (4) winescape. All these showed reliable and validated indicators. This new scale presents a valid new tool to better measure and evaluate experiences in a wine tourism setting. This study offers a broad range of use for academics, managers, planners, and practitioners. It shows how a new measurement tool focused on the wine tourism experience in terms of several outcomes and applications, addressing important practical managerial implications, can have an impact on academic research. Most previous tourism scales still fail to measure the specifics of wine settings. This is the first scale that comprises the dimensions of experience with wine senses, applied in a relevant wine destination where research is still limited. The results are relevant in boosting the increasingly recognized awareness of Portugal as wine tourism, as well as bringing experience scales to the body of knowledge.
- Encouraging wine storytelling in the tourist experience: a preliminary studyPublication . Santos, Vasco Ribeiro; Sousa, Bruno Barbosa; Ramos, Paulo; Dias, Álvaro; Madeira, ArlindoWine tourism has long since ceased to be just a visit to wine producing regions and wineries, just to taste or buy wine. In fact, wine tourism has become more complex as a tourist product, due to the requirement of visitors to obtain a differentiated experience, composed of multiple elements Wine tourism activities consist of, above all, wine tastings and cellar, wine house and wine museum visits. Currently, and in the future, wine tourism has provided and boosted the creation of genuine and unique tourist experiences, more and more differentiated tailor-made. This preliminary approach aims to evaluate the role of wine storytelling as an antecedent in the wine tourism experience, namely on other constructs as winescape attributes, sensorial attraction, wine excitement and cultural experience. A range of practical implications are provided for wine tourism managers, marketers and wine guided tours namely on the importance on the training the storytelling skill by the wine cellars staff. The new vogue of wine tourism forces us to challenge and re-visit the power relationships that exist within contemporary tourism and the host–guest relationship. As an interdisciplinary approach, this research contributes positively to the development of theory in relationship marketing and tourism contexts in wine management (theoretical implications). At the end, guidelines for future work will be presented.

- Pathogenic and non-pathogenic microbes in the wound microbiome-how to flip the switchPublication . Liegenfeld, Sophie Charlotte; Stenzel, Svenja; Rembe, Julian-Dario; Dittmer, Mandy; Ramos, Paulo; Stuermer, Ewa KlaraThe wound microbiome refers to the specific community of microbes, including bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms, that are present in and around a wound. This microbiome plays a crucial role in wound healing, as it includes both healing-promoting and pathogenic microbes. The balance between these microbes significantly influences the healing process; a balanced microbial colonization can support wound healing and prevent infections, while an overgrowth of pathogenic microbes can lead to delayed healing processes and complications. The composition of the wound microbiome can vary depending on the type of wound, cause, genetic predisposition, and (social) environment. In this scope review, the complex interactions in the wound microbiome will be highlighted and the importance of non-pathogenic microbes for wound healing will be discussed. In addition, possible therapeutic approaches to restore a healthy microbiome and prevent infections will be addressed. A deeper understanding of these dynamics could open up new perspectives for the treatment of wounds and the development of strategies to combat wound infections.
