European territorial cooperation towards territorial cohesion?
Medeiros, E.; Scott, J.; Ferreira, R.; Boijmans, P.; Verschelde, N.; Guillermo-Ramírez, M.; Gyula, O.; Peyrony, J.; Soares, A.Understood in some conceptual analysis as a pillar of territorial cohesion and due to its critical role in promoting territorial integration, territorial cooperation is often presented as one of the major positive achievements of European Union (EU) Cohesion Policy. In this context, this article proposes a conceptual framework to assess the contribution of the European Territorial Cooperation process, including...
Predictors of health-protective and helping behaviors during the Covid-19 pande...
Fontes, A.; Pereira, C. R.; Menezes, S.; Soares, A.; Almeida, P.; Carvalho, G.; Arriaga, P.The COVID -19 pandemic dramatically affected people's lives. In this study, we explored the role of social and personal factors underlying individuals' adaptive responses during the critical onset period of the outbreak. In particular, we tested two models on the mediating role of health-protective behaviors in the relationship between social support, resilience, and helping behavior. A sample of 1085 participa...
Perceção e competência motora em prática autocontrolada na execução do rolament...
Serrão-Arrais, Ana; Catela, David; Soares, A.; Gouveia, L.; Castro, L.; Matos, M.; Branco, Marco A. C.A trave é um aparelho desportivo feminino, embora com origem gímnica masculina, que impõe constrangimentos físicos específicos. Fomos verificar se crianças praticantes de ginástica artística desportiva (N=35; 9,2±1,7 anos; experiência- 3,7±1,6 anos; 7 meninos) coincidiam na escolha e capacidade efetiva de realização do rolamento à frente na trave, perante diferentes níveis de dificuldade da tarefa. Os meninos r...
Ethics 4.0: Ethical dilemmas in healthcare mediated by social robots
Soares, A.; Piçarra, N.; Giger, J. - C.; Oliveira, R.; Arriaga, P.This study examined people's moral judgments and trait perceptions toward a healthcare agent's response to a patient who refuses medication. A sample of 524 participants was randomly assigned to one of eight vignettes in which the type of healthcare agent (human vs. robot), the use of a health message framing (emphasizing health-losses for not taking vs. health-gains in taking the medication), and the ethical d...

Novo algoritmo para atribuição de potência por circuito em redes ópticas elásticas
Fontinele, A.; Santos, I.; Lacerda, J.; Soares, A.; Cartaxo, A. V. T.; Campelo, D. R.Este artigo apresenta um estudo em redes ópticas elásticas considerando o problema de Power, Routing, Modulation Level and Spectrum Assignment (PRMLSA). O presente estudo se concentra na atribuição de potência por circuito. Nesse contexto, o algoritmo de Power Assignment by Binary Search (PABS), um novo algoritmo que realiza atribuição de potência por circuito de forma adaptativa, é proposto. O algoritmo PABS é...
Subtelomeric Rearrangements: Presentation of 21 Probands with Emphasis on Famil...
Soares, A.; Soares, G.; Mota-Freitas, M.; Oliva-Teles, N.; Fortuna, A.Intellectual disability affects 2% - 3% of the general population, with a chromosomal abnormality being found in 4% - 28% of these patients and a cryptic subtelomeric abnormality in 3% - 16%. In most cases, these subtelomeric rearrangements are submicroscopic, requiring techniques other than conventional karyotype for detection. They may be de novo or inherited from an affected parent or from a healthy carrier ...
Management of Locally Advanced Esthesioneuroblastoma in a Pregnant Woman
Guerreiro, I.; Vieira, C.; Soares, A.; Braga, A.; Jácome, M.; Dinis, J.Esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) is a rare malignant tumor that commonly develops in the upper nasal cavity. Standard treatment is not established, especially in locally advanced disease which portends the worse prognosis. Hereby, we report a case of a 27-year-old, 23-week pregnant woman, with a 2-month history of progressively growing right cervical lymphadenopathy, nasal obstruction, anosmia, frequent episodes of ...
Investigating collapse structures in oceanic islands using magnetotelluric surv...
Martínez-Moreno, F.J.; Monteiro Santos, Fernando Acácio; Madeira, José; Pous, J.; Bernardo, I.; Soares, A.; Esteves, M.; Adão, F.; Ribeiro, J.One of the most remarkable natural events on Earth are the large lateral flank collapses of oceanic volcanoes, involving volumes of rock exceeding tens of km3. These collapses are relatively frequent in recent geological times as supported by evidence found in the geomorphology of volcanic island edifices and associated debris flows deposited on the proximal ocean floor. The Island of Fogo in the Cape Verde arc...
A review on current advances in the energy and environmental performance of bui...
Soares, N.; Bastos, J.; Pereira, L. Dias; Soares, A.; Amaral, A. R.; Asadi, E.; Rodrigues, E.; Lamas, F. B.; Monteiro, H.; Lopes, M. A. R.; Gaspa, A. R.Nowadays, debates addressing climate change, fossil fuels depletion and energy security highlight the need for a more sustainable built environment in order to reduce energy consumption and emission trends in the buildings sector. Meeting these targets is a challenge that calls for innovative research to improve the use of renewable energy sources, new technologies, and holistic tools and methodologies. Such re...
