The habit of adding salt to food at the table and its association with socio-demographic, anthropometric and dietary characteristics in Brazilian older adults
Introduction: Adding salt to food at the table is a recognized behavior linked to long-term preference for salty foods and overall daily salt intake. Given its impact on quality of life and life expectancy, several consumer awareness campaigns target the reduction of discretionary salt use. To inform such strategies in aging populations, we aimed to explore the association between socio-demographic, anthropometric and dietary characteristics and …
Landscape science, coastal instruments, and landscape change
Since the mid-20th century, European landscapes, especially coastal regions, have faced significant transformations influenced by global and national trends, mainly driven by coastalisation. While studies have explored various aspects of coastal landscape changes across Europe and beyond, a fundamental gap remains: understanding how the conceptualisation and integration of landscape within coastal planning instruments impact broader landscape cha…
Cooking Skills and Mediterranean Diet Adherence
Background: Cooking skills represent an important yet often overlooked form of social and cultural capital, influencing dietary quality and health outcomes. As modern societies face growing challenges related to unhealthy eating patterns and a loss of traditional food practices, understanding the societal role of culinary competence becomes critical. This study explored the association between culinary skills, adherence to the Mediterranean diet,…
Does landscape play a role in the governance of the coastal region? An evolutionary perspective from Portugal since 1950
The landscape crisis and the climate crisis strongly affect coastal landscapes in many coastal regions worldwide. Evidence shows that the difficulty of governing coastal regions has increased alongside the attractiveness of contemporary societies for settlements near the coastline. There is a growing debate in landscape governance conceptualisation and operationalisation, in landscape research. Despite the significant progress on this theme, empi…
A manifesto for coastal landscape governance
There is an urgent demand for substantial reforms in the governance of coastal regions. Recent research advocates for a transformative shift in European coastal governance system towards a landscape governance approach. This perspective, informed by a narrative literature review on coastal and landscape governance, explores the potential value of coastal landscape governance, drawing on the Council of Europe Landscape Convention. Our results, pre…

The Effects of Covid-19 Lockdown on the Perception of Physical Activity and on the Perception of Musculoskeletal Symptoms in Computer Workers
Lockdown resulting from the pandemic led to a change in the health habits of the computer workers community. Sedentary work, together with less active lifestyles, aggravated by the COVID-19 pandemic leads to impacts on physical activity (PA) and can contribute to the development of musculoskeletal symptoms (MSS). Aim(s): Understand the effects of lockdown on the perception of physical activity levels and on the perception of frequency of musculos…
Positive Effects of an Online Workplace Exercise Intervention during the Covid-19 Pandemic on Quality of Life Perception in Computer Workers
After 17 weeks of workplace exercises, it became clear that the intervention group positively increased their QoL perception, with this improvement being significant in the Pain domain, which resulted in an improvement in their health condition. Therefore, further studies are needed to determine the optimal exercise for CWs, with detailed exercise types, different intensities and focused on various health conditions
Food Insecurity Levels among University Students
Background: University students may be vulnerable to food insecurity (FI) due to limited financial resources, lower purchasing power, and increasing housing and food costs. This study aimed to assess the prevalence and severity of FI and its associated factors among university students attending a public Portuguese university. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was designed, and data were collected using a self-reported online questionnaire valida…
A Oficina De João De Ruão
Este artigo pretende estruturar o conhecimento sobre a oficina de João de Ruão, colocando em discussão o problema das relações oficinais, da gestão do trabalho e dos escultores que a historiografia artística tem associado ao Mestre normando.Partindo da organização socio-laboral coimbrã, e inquirindo sobre qual seria o ambiente formativo deste artista na Normandia – um assunto tão inexplorado quanto difícil, pela parcimónia de dados – , que também…
Effect of Instability and Bodyweight Neuromuscular Training on Dynamic Balance Control in Active Young Adults
The aims of this study were to analyse the effects of unstable and stable bodyweight neuromuscular training on dynamic balance control and to analyse the between-group differences after the training period. Seventy-seven physically active young adults (48 males, 29 females, 19.1 ± 1.1 years, 170.2 ± 9.2 cm, 64.1 ± 10.7 kg) were distributed into an unstable training group (UTG), a stable training group (STG), and a control group (CG). Training was…
