Gender dynamics in a masculine professional context: The case of the Portuguese...

This article aims to understand the experiences of women working in the Portuguese Air Force, a traditionally male professional environment, and the perspectives of their male counterparts on the subject, considering women’s minority status and symbolic gender asymmetries in the military. This study draws on 16 semi-structured interviews with Air Force personnel, evenly split by gender. Findings reveal four mai...

Study about eating habits of higher education students

Introduction: The transition from secondary school to university is associated with many changes, at the social and surrounding influences’ levels, which may be a risk factor for unhealthy lifestyles. It is known that the years spent at the university may be associated with poor eating habits, with levels of fast-food consumption higher than desirable, possibly low intake of fruits and vegetables and breakfast ...

First intention epicardial VT ablation : what are the results?

Introduction: Ventricular tachycardia (VT) endocardial mapping and ablation may not be sufficient in several arrhythmogenic contexts, because ventricular myocardium may comprise intricate endocardial, intramural and epicardial substract. Thus, epicardial ablation has lately become a complementary and necessary tool to approach some VTs in different types of cardiomyopathies.

Behavioural lateralization and shoaling cohesion of fish larvae altered under o...

Recent studies have shown that the behaviour and development of coral reef fish larvae is hampered by projected future CO2 levels. However, it is uncertain to what extent this effect also occurs in temperate species. The effects that elevated pCO2 (~2000 µatm) levels, which are expected to occur in coastal upwelling regions in the future, have on shoaling behaviour and lateralization (turning preference) of fis...

Carga aerodinâmica em sombreamentos em cascata

A arquitetura recorre, por vezes, a dispositivos de sombreamento de grandes dimensões, com formas e configurações de montagem cuja resposta à ação do vento carece de caracterização. Os sombreamentos em cascata, instalados no exterior de fachadas e constituídos por uma série de lamelas paralelas entre si, colocam desafios particulares do ponto de vista da avaliação aerodinâmica que condicionam a carga imposta pe...

Effects of inter-annual freshwater inflow shifts on the community structure of ...

The objective of this study was to evaluate how inter-annual changes in freshwater inputs have affected the decapod assemblages in the Guadiana estuary. Three major areas in the estuary were sampled during the summer, in 2001 (high inflow year and before the filling of the Alqueva dam), in 2002 (low inflow and after filling of the Alqueva dam), and in 2008 and 2009 (low inflow and after consolidation of the imp...
