Improving Motor Competence of Children: The Super Quinas Intervention Program i...
Rodrigues, Luis P.; Cordovil, Rita; Costa, Júlio A.; Seabra, André; Guilherme, José; Vale, Susana; Luz, Carlos; Flôres, Fábio; Lagoa, Maria JoãoThe objective of this study was to describe the effects of an extra hour of a structured motor program on the motor competence (MC) of children 6–10 years old. The need for movement interventions to enhance MC among school-aged children has gained vital importance in the last years, given the negative secular trends reported. Hence, the Portuguese Football Federation organized an intervention program on MC to b...
Vesicoperineal Fistula: A Rare Rectal Cancer Treatment Complication
Moreira, Luísa; Margarida, André; Vasconcelos, Marta; Garção, Nunes; Luz, CarlosA vesicoperineal fistula is an uncommon entity, described as an aberrant tract between the bladder lumen and the cutaneous surface of the perineum. We present the case of a 78-year-old male who underwent abdominoperineal resection and chemoradiotherapy for the treatment of non-metastatic, locally advanced rectal cancer. Five years later, he developed a pelvic floor hernia and underwent perineal mesh repair. A f...

Mapeando o currículo: cruzando competências e áreas de conteúdo
Valente, Bianor; Ferreira, Nuno Martins; Mendes, Luís; Melo, Nuno; Brunheira, Lina; Almeida, Pedro; Pereira, Susana; Estrela, AntóniaA abordagem baseada em competências é uma das tendências fortes nos A abordagem baseada em competências é uma das tendências fortes nos currículos atuais. Em Portugal, as Aprendizagens Essenciais (AE) definem explicitamente os conhecimentos, capacidades e atitudes a serem alcançados em cada ano ou ciclo de escolaridade em cada componente curricular. Esta perspetiva tem sido adotada como uma forma de promover um...
Effect of motor competence and health-related fitness in the prevention of meta...
Pombo, André; Cordovil, Rita; Rodrigues, Luis Paulo; Moreira, Ana Catarina; Borrego, Rute; Machado, Margarida; Costa, Vânia; Almeida, AnaPurpose: In the last decades we have seen an increase in sedentary behaviors and a decrease in physical activity in children when compared to past generations. This lifestyle is commonly associated with the development of clustering risk factors that define metabolic syndrome (MetS). Knowing that motor competence (MC) development can influence lifelong physical activity habits, it is reasonable to assume that c...

Profiles of motor competence and its perception accuracy among children: Associ...
Almeida, Gabriela; Luz, Carlos; Rodrigues, Luís Paulo; Lopes, Vitor; Cordovil, RitaThe main goals of this study were to identify profiles in school-aged children based on actual Motor Competence (MC) and accuracy of Perceived Motor Competence (PMC) and to examine how children with different profiles differ in terms of Physical Fitness (PF) and Body Fat percentage (BF%). The MC of a total of 287 children (51.6% boys, aged between 6 and 10 years-old) was assessed using the Motor Competence Asse...
Motor Competence Assessment (MCA) Scoring Method
Rodrigues, Luis Paulo; Luz, Carlos; Cordovil, Rita; Pombo, André; Lopes, Vitor P.The Motor Competence Assessment (MCA) is a quantitative test battery that assesses motor competence across the whole lifespan. It is composed of three sub-scales: locomotor, stability, and manipulative, each of them assessed by two different objectively measured tests. The MCA construct validity for children and adolescents, having normative values from 3 to 23 years of age, and the configural invariance betwee...
