RESUMO: Introdução: O treino de exercício assume uma importância fundamental nos programas de reabilitação respiratória, contudo permanece desconhecida qual a intensidade de treino efectiva na mudança dos resultados centrados no doente. Objectivos: Foram estudados os efeitos de duas intensidades de treino aeróbio na qualidade de vida relacionada com a saúde, no controlo de sintomas e na tolerância ao exercício, num programa de reabilitação respiratória para doentes com DPOC. Métodos: Trinta e quatro doentes com DPOC de estádios GOLD de ligeiro a muito grave, foram alocados aleatoriamente a intensidades de treino de exercício aeróbio de 60% ou 80% da intensidade máxima avaliada na prova de esforço num programa ambulatório de reabilitação respiratória de 20 sessões. Foram avaliados resultados centrados no doente pela aplicação do questionário respiratório de St.George, do índice de dispneia de Mahler, do questionário de actividades da vida diária do London Chest, da prova de 6 minutos, da prova de endurance a carga constante e da prova de esforço máxima incremental. Resultados: Apesar de existirem melhorias significativas em todos os resultados para ambos os grupos, a diferença média intergrupal por efeito da intensidade de treino aeróbio a 60% ou 80% da carga máxima em prova de esforço não foi significativa no questionário respiratório de St.George (p=0,306), no índice de dispneia de Mahler (p=0,378), no questionário de actividades da vida diária do London Chest (p=0,425), na prova de marcha de 6 minutos (p=0,917), na prova de endurance a carga constante (p=0,504) e na prova de esforço máxima incremental (p=0,117). Verificou-se ainda que a média das diferenças intergrupais na prova de endurance a carga constante e na prova de marcha de 6 minutos não apresentou qualquer associação com a idade dos doentes. Conclusões: O estudo permite concluir que não existem diferenças significativas nas alterações médias da qualidade de vida relacionada com a saúde, do controle de sintomas e da tolerância ao exercício em doentes com DPOC como efeito de duas intensidades de treino aeróbio. Os autores propõem para a prática clínica em reabilitação respiratória, a aplicação de intensidades de treino aeróbio individualmente adaptadas, de pelo menos 60% da carga máxima na prova de esforço inicial. -------------------------------ABSTRACT: Introduction: Exercise training is an important component of pulmonary rehabilitation, but it remains questionable as how training intensity changes patient-centered outcomes. Aims and objectives: The effects of two aerobic exercise training intensities in health-related quality of life, symptoms control and exercise tolerance in COPD patients were studied. Methods: Thirty-four COPD patients from mild to very severe GOLD stages were randomly assigned to a 60% or 80% aerobic exercise training intensity in a twenty-session outpatient pulmonary rehabilitation program. Patient-centered outcomes were assessed with St.George's respiratory questionnaire, Mahler dyspnoea index, London Chest activity of daily living, six minute walk test, constant work rate test and maximal incremental test. Results: Although there were significant improvements in all outcomes for both groups, there were no differences in mean change in St.George's respiratory questionnaire (p=0,306), Mahler dyspnoea index (p=0,378), London Chest activity of daily living (p=0,917), six-minute walk test (p=0,504), constant work rate test (p=0,504) and maximal incremental test (p=0,117), as an effect of aerobic exercise training intensity of 60% or 80%. Mean changes in constant work rate and six-minute walk test were not age-related. Conclusions: It is concluded that there are no differences in mean changes in health-related quality of life, symptoms control and exercise tolerance in COPD patients as an effect of two aerobic exercise training intensities. Therefore, the authors suggest that individually tailored exercise intensities above 60% should guide clinical practice in pulmonary rehabilitation.

RESUMO: Este estudo foi realizado com o objectivo de conhecer os efeitos da desinstitucionalização dos doentes psiquiátricos crónicos durante o processo de encerramento do Hospital Miguel Bombarda (2007-2011). Este processo incluiu a fusão, em 2008, dos dois principais hospitais psiquiátricos de Lisboa- Hospital Miguel Bombarda (HMB) e Hospital Júlio de Matos (HJM), no Centro Psiquiátrico Hospitalar de Lisboa (CHPL). Foi criado um grupo controlo de pacientes ainda hospitalizados no CHPL (n=166) para comparação com o grupo de casos desinstitucionalizados (n=146). Desta amostra inicial (n=312) apenas 142 (76 casos e 66 controlos) foram incluídos, sendo as principais causas de exclusão: diagnóstico (patologia orgânica, demência ou debilidade mental, como diagnóstico primário) e transferência entre hospitais. A desinstitucionalização foi principalmente avaliada em termos de psicopatologia, utilização de serviços, satisfação, crime, condição de “sem abrigo” ou morte. Os resultados mostraram que a maioria dos doentes crónicos pode sair do hospital psiquiátrico para a comunidade sem agravamento da psicopatologia, aumento do crime ou da condição de “sem abrigo”. A satisfação parece estar aumentada na população desinstitucionalizada. A mortalidade, por outro lado, revelou-se uma questão problemática: apesar de não ter sido possível estabelecer uma comparação entre casos e controlos, a Taxa de Mortalidade Standard encontrada neste estudo foi muito superior ao esperado, de acordo com os resultados encontrados na literatura. Um estudo longitudinal da mesma população poderá ser objecto de futura investigação, possivelmente comparada com outra população similar de um programa de desinstitucionalização noutro país.--------- RÉSUMÉ: Cette étude a été menée afin de déterminer les effets de la désinstitutionnalisation des patients chroniques lors de la fermeture de l'hôpital Miguel Bombarda (2007-2011). Ce processus comprenait la fusion en 2008 de deux grands hôpitaux psychiatriques de Lisbonne: À savoir, Hôpital Miguel Bombarda (HMB) et Hôpital Julio de Matos (HJM), maintenant Centre de l'Hôpital Psychiatrique de Lisbonne (CHPL). Il a été créé un groupe contrôle des patients toujours hospitalisés à CHPL (n = 166) pour comparer avec les cas désinstitutionnalisés (n = 146). De cet échantillon initial (n= 312) à peine 142 (76 cas et 66 contrôles) ont été inclus, les principales raisons d'exclusion: diagnostique (maladie organique, démence ou d'arriération mentale comme diagnostic primaire) et les transferts entre hôpitaux. La désinstitutionnalisation a été principalement évaluée en termes de psychopathologie, de l'utilisation des services, la satisfaction, la criminalité, les “sans abri” et de la mort. Les résultats ont montré que la majorité des malades chroniques peuvent quitter l'hôpital psychiatrique et s´intégrer dans la communauté sans aggravation de la psychopathologie, augmentation de la criminalité ou du nombre de “sans-abri”. La satisfaction semble être en hausse dans la population désinstitutionnalisée. Toutefois, la mortalité s'est avéré être une question problématique, même si il n´a pas été possible d'établir une comparaison entre les cas et les contrôles, le Taux de Mortalité Standard estimé dans cette étude fut beaucoup plus élevé que prévu, en tenant compte des résultats établis dans la littérature. Une étude longitudinale de la même population pourra faire l'objet de futures recherches, peut-être comparé à une population similaire d'un programme de désinstitutionnalisation dans un autre pays. ----------- ABSTRACT:This study was conducted to assess the effects of deinstitutionalization of “long-stay” patients during the process of closing Hospital Miguel Bombarda (2007-2011). This process included the fusion, in 2008, of the two main psychiatric hospitals in Lisbon- Hospital Miguel Bombarda (HMB) and Hospital Júlio de Matos (HJM), into Centro Psiquiátrico Hospitalar de Lisboa (CHPL). A control group of still institutionalized patients in CHPL (n=166) was used as a comparison with the deinstitutionalized population (n=146). Of this 312 initial sample only 142 (76 cases and 66 controls) were included, the main causes of exclusion being diagnoses (organic disease, dementia and mental retardation- as first diagnoses) and transference between hospitals. Deinstitutionalization is mainly evaluated in terms of psychopathology, use of services, satisfaction, crime, vagrancy and deaths. The results show that most long-stay patients can successfully leave psychiatric hospitals and be relocated in the community without an increase in psychopathology, crime or vagrancy. Satisfaction seems to be improved in those patients. On the other hand, mortality remains an issue of concern: Although there was no possibility of comparing it between cases and controls, the Standard Mortality Rate (SMR) in our study was found to be much higher than expected judging by other studies results. A longitudinal further study of this same population will be the matter for a future investigation, possibily compared with another similar population from a desinstitutionalization programme in another country.

The Archipelago of the Azores (Portugal) is located between 378 and 418N and 258 and 318W and crosses the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. It is the most isolated archipelago in the Atlantic, situated 1600 km west of mainland Portugal and 3500 km from the eastern coast of the United States of America. At present, the only population of seals occurring in the Portuguese territory is found on Desertas Islands, Archipelago of Madeira, where a colony of 24 Mediterranean monk seals, Monachus monachus (Hermann, 1779), still persists (Pires and Neves 2001). Nonetheless, historical accounts reported by Frutuoso (1983) dating from the early to late 1500s mention sightings of ‘‘sea wolves’’ (the old Portuguese folk term for the Mediterranean monk seal) at several sites along the Azorean Island of Santa Maria. Little is known about the occurrence of monk seals in this area over the past five centuries, but the species certainly did not escape deliberate killing by the first settlers. While the early monk seal reports by Frutuoso (1983) are the only reports referring to the presence of colonies of seals in the Azores, more recently several sightings and strandings of vagrant seals of other species have been noted.

In the stock market, information takes on special relevance, due to the market’s permanent updating and the great fluidity of information existent therein. Just as in any other negotiations, the party with the better information has a bargaining advantage, as it is able to make more advantageous business decisions. However, unlike most other markets, the proper functioning of the stock market is greatly dependent on investors’ trust in the market itself. As such, if there are investors who, due to any condition they possess or office they hold, have access to relevant information which is not accessible to the general public, distrust is bred within the market and, consequently, investment is lessened. Thus, there is a need to prevent those who hold privileged information from using it in abusive ways. In Portugal, abuse of privileged information is set out and punished criminally in Article 378. of the Portuguese Securities Code (‘Código dos Valores Mobiliários’). In this dissertation, I have set out, firstly, to analyze the inherent conditions for there to be a crime of abuse of privileged information; secondly, to analyze two well-known cases, which took place and were decided in other jurisdictions, and attempt to understand how these cases would fall under Article 378. of the Portuguese Securities Code. Whereas the first case, Chiarella v. United States, was scrutinize under Article 378 of the Portuguese Securities Code, in the second, Lafonta v. AMF, the conclusion arrived at was that the crime taken place was different. This analysis allowed, on one hand, the application to a particular case of prerequisites and concepts which were explained, at a first approach, from a more theoretical perspective; on the other hand, it also allowed the further development of specific aspects of the regime, namely the difference between an insider and a tipee, as well as to more clearly set out the limits to the precise character of the information at hand.
