Abstract

This communication comes from a practical proposal of the rehabilitation of structures in villages from the neighbourhood of Bairro da Serafina e Liberdade, in Campolide, Lisboa, developed during the 3rd year, in the course unit of Architecture VI, in the integrated Master of Architecture, from ISCTE-IUL, presented in the academic year of 2015/2016. We should consider that the type of intervention proposed serves new types of families which determine a redesign of the housing programme, bearing in mind the local context where it is localized. This way, this presentation is shown in a study more centred in the reinterpretation of the collective dwelling of the houses, focusing in the collective shared spaces, like the kitchen. In the proposed rehabilitation, it is stimulated and privileged the sharing of a common space – the kitchen, so that the residents have better housing conditions, with more agreeable spaces where fire is used, bearing in mind the small dimensions of the fires. It is important to notice that most houses of the block are totally or practically unoccupied. So, in order to propose a new way of housing, an inter-generational contact between old and new residents is promoted, as well as better living conditions and well-being. This way, it is very important to understand: (1) the essential characteristics of the structures in villages in Lisboa, so that the essential is kept and preserved in a rehabilitation proposal; (2) the importance of the kitchen in the house; (3) the type of space: preparation, confection and eating; (4) the way the kitchen adapts itself to be shared by different fires and if this space of preparation, confection and eating may have no fire at all. info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion

Abstract

The study carried out within this presentation focuses on minimalist Portuguese architecture. The concept of minimal art, comprehensive movement to the different artistic areas, emerged in the twentieth century, more specifically from 1960s. This artistic movement, characterised by the absence of ornaments and focused on the essence of the form, its purity and its simplicity, became to be called minimalism in the late 1960s. The intention to renounce ornamentation and begin to admire the simplicity of the form, manifested itself long before the appearance of the minimalist architecture, namely from the 1920s having as major drivers Adolf Loos, Le Corbusier and Mies van der Rohe. It was only in the early 1970s that the appearance of minimalist architecture was officially considered. This architectural style results from the application of the minimal art principles in the conceptual thinking of spaces. It can be considered that second half of the twentieth century was considerably marked by the presence of minimalist architecture, and it remains to this day. In this way, the main theme of this presentation has as primary purpose to analyse the impact that the minimalist architecture has had and has in the national context, trying to determine if can be considered that exists a Portuguese minimalist architecture. For this, a framework will be made based on the contextualization and historical evolution of the concept of minimalism, followed by a brief study of twentieth century architecture, relating them to the Portuguese architecture of that same century. After the awareness of the minimalist context and its relationship with Portuguese architecture will be made, based on its characteristics, a study of several cases in which minimalism is present in the works of Portuguese architects. info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion

Abstract

Introduction: Childhood obesity is an important public health issue, especially in developed countries, with a multifactorial nature. We purpose to evaluate the prevalence of overweight and obesity in a group of children and analyze related risk factors., Material: Study including 207 children aged 5-6 years old enrolled in Urban Extension of ACES Ave III - Famalicão. Data were collected from connector plugs school health and phone interview of parents., Methods: Cross sectional observational study. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS software and parametric tests were used to verify the statistical significance of data, considering statistical significance for p values <0.05., Results: The overall prevalence of overweight was 46.9% and obesity 28.5%, and the majority were girls. Odds ratio revealed that obesity risk increased with birthweight (<2500 g: 1.28; 2500-3000 g: 1.84; 3000 g-3500 g: 1.83; 3500 g-4000 g: 2.00 ), the number of hours of sleep (<9 hours: 1.5, 9-10 hours: 1.75;> 10 hours: 1.89), the number of hours of television (<2 hours: 1.71; 2-4 hours: 1.81;> 4 hours: 1.89) and intake of fruit juice as the main drink (not: 1.70; yes: 1.80). The obesity risk was higher when parents were overweight and obese (father/mother: normal-weight: 1.58 / 1.62; pre-obese: 1.93 / 2.10, obese: 1.86 / 1 79), lived in rural areas (urban: 1.67, rural: 1.75) and have basic education (father/mother: 1st-4th class: 2.20 / 2.58, 5th 9th class: 1.80/ 1.69; 10th-12th class: 1.38 / 1.65; university: 1.78 / 1.76). There was a association between the number of siblings and obesity (zero: 1.84; a: 1.68; two: 1.87; three: 1.75). The physical activity acted as a protective factor for obesity (practice: 1.74; not practice: 1.78)., Conclusions: The results of this study revealed the need for immediate implementation of measures involving health professionals, parents and educators. Knowledge of various risk factors allows for the adoption of preventive strategies to mitigate the impact of childhood obesity.

Abstract

Purpose: Evaluation of the efficacy and tolerability of nifedipine oros in patients with mild to moderate essential hypertension without major target organ damage and the anti-hypertensive effect along the 24 hours., Methods: Two hundred and three patients were studied. After two weeks placebo running period single dose of nifedipine oros (30 mg/day) was administered for 8 weeks. At the end of the 4th week, the non-responders (diastolic blood pressure > 90 mmHg or reduction in diastolic pressure < 10 mmHg), had the dosage increased to 60 mg/day. Laboratory tests and 24h blood pressure monitoring (60 patients) were performed at the beginning and at the end of the study., Results: One hundred and ninety one patients completed the study. Fifty nine percent were considered responders at the end of the 4th week with nifedipine oros 30 mg/day and 41% needed dosage increment to 60 mg/day. At the end of the 8th week, all patients were considered responders to nifedipine oros. The blood pressure control extended throughout the 24h of the day. The most common adverse events were edema (14.6%) and headache (12.4%). Good and very good tolerability were informed by 85% of the patients., Conclusion: Nifedipine oros was able to control blood pressure efficaciously along the 24h period without important side effects. The possibility of once day dosage, increases the patient adherence to anti-hypertensive therapy.

Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate clinical efficacy and tolerability of isradipine SRO (I.SRO), 5 mg O.D. in essential hypertensives., Methods: Eighty-three of 87 selected outpatients with a mean age of 51.3 years (ranging from 25 to 65), 33 male, 48 white, 29 black and others of different races, who had clinical supine and orthostatic diastolic blood pressure (DBP) > or = 95 mmHg and < or = 115 mmHg underwent the study. After a three-week wash-out period, patients received I.SRO 5 mg O.D. at 8:00 am for a six-week period (phase I). After this phase, patients received I.SRO 5 mg O.D. at 8:00 pm for a six-week period (phase II). The patients had a follow-up with an interval of three weeks and the ambulatorial blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) for 24 hours was performed with a SpaceLabs 90207 or Del Mar Avionics devices after the wash-out period and at the end of phases I and II. Measurements were performed at 15-min intervals during the day (6 am to 10 pm) and at 30-min intervals during the night (10 pm to 6 am)., Results: a) Heart rate did not show significant changes during the treatment period (phases I and II) when compared with the wash-out period; b) causal blood pressure: at the end of both treatment periods (phases I and II) there were statistically significant decreases (p < 0.001) in supine SBP and DBP compared with wash-out values. The mean SBP decreased from 161.6 +/- 14 to 144.3 +/- 13 mmHg (phase I) and to 141.8 +/- 13 mmHg (phase II). The mean DBP decreased from 103.4 +/- 6 to 91.2 +/- 7 (phase I) and to 89.1 +/- 8 (phase II); c) ABPM: the mean systolic 24-h ambulatory blood pressure was significantly reduced (p < 0.001) from 148.8 +/- 17 to 137.2 +/- 15 mmHg (phase I) and to 133.4 +/- 13 mmHg (phase II). The mean diastolic 24-h ambulatory blood pressure was significantly decreased (p < 0.001) from 94.3 +/- 9 to 87.0 +/- 9 (phase I) and to 85.8 +/- 8 mmHg (phase II). The mean daytime and nighttime, systolic and diastolic 24-h ambulatory blood pressure were: wash-out--152.3 +/- 17, 140.2 +/- 21, 97.4 +/- 9, 86.8 +/- 13; phase I--139.9 +/- 15, 130.0 +/- 17, 89.3 +/- 9, 81.3 +/- 10; phase II--136.7 +/- 13, 125.3 +/- 15, 88.5 +/- 8, 79.1 +/- 10, respectively. Blood pressure load (percentage of systolic blood pressure values > 140 mmHg or of diastolic blood pressure values > 90 mmHg) was significantly reduced from 62.2/62% (SBP/DBP), on the was-out, to 37.9/39.9% (SBP/DBP) on phase I and to 32.3/34.3% (SBP/DBP) on phase II; d) side effects: most frequently related were palpitations (2.3%), headache (1.1%), flush (1%) and ankle oedema (1%). They were in general, mild-to-moderate and disappeared after the first 3 weeks of treatment. Only two patients were withdrawn because of headache (one of them with previous diagnosis of migraine)., Conclusion: I.SRO, given by oral route, in the dosage of 5 mg O.D. as monotherapy, was effective and well tolerated, promoted significant reduction on 24-h ambulatory blood pressure attenuating the early morning rise and did not interfere with the circadian rhythm of blood pressure. No significant differences were detected in the BP lowering effect when I.SRO was given during the morning or evening. These results may indicate that the drug is as suitable as one of the first choice for treating mild and moderate hypertensive patients.

Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate during 12 weeks the effectiveness and safety of once-a-day fosinopril (10 or 20 mg/day comparative to placebo) in mild to moderate hypertensives according to an open design comparative to placebo., Methods: One hundred and nineteen patients were studied; 52 +/- 11 years (mean +/- sd) range 18 a 76 years, 86 women and 33 men, 57% whites, 26% blacks and 17% mulattos, 71 mild hypertensives (95 < or = diastolic pressure < or = 104mmHg) e 48 moderate hypertensives (101 < diastolic pressure < or = 115mmHg)., Results: There was a significant reduction in systolic/diastolic pressure on the 6th week of treatment (from 161 +/- 16/103 +/- 7 before to 148 +/- 16/94 +/- 9mmHg on the 6th week). On the 12th week of treatment there was an additional significant reduction in systolic/diastolic pressure (from 148 +/- 16/94 +/- 9 on the 6th week to 145 +/- 17/89 +/- 8mmHg on the 12th week). There was a "favorable" response in 71% of the patients on the 12th week; 62% showed diastolic pressure < or = 90mmHg and 9% presented diastolic reduction > or = 10mmHg. There was no difference in the normalization rates between whites and non-whites, mild and moderate hypertensive, obese and non-obese patients, under or above 50 years of age and those patients from no drug-treatment to those on 3 drug before the study. There was no clinically relevant changes in laboratory evaluations before and at the end of the study. The number of adverse reactions was reduced in comparison with previous treatment., Conclusion: Fosinopril, according to our and others data, is effective and safe for the treatment of mild to moderate hypertensives, in whites or non-whites, obese or non-obese, younger or older than 50 years and receiving 0 or 3 drugs before the study.
