Exposure to green, blue, and biodiverse spaces and their associations with loneliness in urban adults
Emerging evidence suggests green space may reduce loneliness, while the role of blue space and biodiversity remains under-researched. This study examines associations between exposure to green, blue, and biodiverse spaces and loneliness in adults in Porto, Portugal and explores potential effect modifiers. Loneliness was assessed in 2022 in 657 EPIPorto cohort participants using the UCLA Loneliness Scale (>32 indicating 'high loneliness'). Vegetat…

Mutations associated with viral resistance to integrase in individuals initiating dolutegravir-containing antiretroviral therapy
Retrospective cohort aimed to analyze viral resistance mutations to integrase in people living with HIV/Aids (PLWHA) in Brazil. Patients receiving first-line therapy with a three-drug antiretroviral (ART) regimen containing dolutegravir (DTG), with HIV-1 genotypic resistance test available after starting treatment, were included. Data from three national databases related to antiretroviral dispensing, LT CD4+ cell count and HIV viral load (VL), a…
Housing Insecurity and Older Adults’ Health and Well-Being in a Gentrifying City
Using 2022 data from 600 adults (≥ 60 years) in Porto, Portugal, we explored the association between housing insecurity and various health outcomes. We examined housing conditions, affordability, and stability in relation to loneliness, quality of life, cognitive function, perception of healthy ageing, and sleep using regression models. Older adults without house heating (β = 2.293; 95%CI = 0.753, 3.833), with leaks/dampness/rot (β = 3.741; 1.818…
Cortical auditory evoked potentials in 1‐month‐old infants predict language outcomes at 12 months
The neurophysiological assessment of infants in their first developmental year can provide important information about the functional changes of the brain and supports the study of behavioral and developmental characteristics. Infants’ cortical auditory evoked potentials (CAEPs) reflect cortical maturation and appear to predict subsequent language abilities. This study aimed to identify CAEP components to two auditory stimulus intensities in 1‐mo…
Social Support and Cognitive Impairment
(1) Background: In an ageing society, social relationships may benefit cognitive performance with an impact on the health of older people. This study aims to estimate the effect of different social support sources on the risk of cognitive impairment in a sample of older Portuguese people. (2) Methods: From the Portuguese EpiPorto cohort study, we followed a sample of participants with 60 to 85 years ( N = 656) between 2009 and 2015 (4.63 mean yea…
Total body percentage and motor coordination among Portuguese schoolchildren
Children’s motor coordination may affect their activity pattern and thereby influence their bodyfatness. The aim of the present study was to analyse the relationship between motor coordination and total body fat percentage, in a Portuguese sample of schoolchildren aged 9–12 years. Method: The sample comprised 596 urban schoolchildren (girls 46?9%), aged 9–12 years (mean 9?61 ( SD 0?55) years) from North of Portugal. Total body fat percentage was …
