Autoria: Weiss, H.
Resumo: In the late 1920s, Siegfried Kracauer studied the then new middle class in Berlin, asking why they were not more disruptive of the structures that bore down on them. I ask the same about insecure professionals in contemporary Berlin, using Kracauer's book Die Angestellten as foil. Kracauer demonstrated that, in the 1920s, they still perceived themselves as workers, albeit white-collar and salaried workers. Berlin's professionals today perceive themselves and most everyone else as autonomous individuals possessing human capital that can appreciate or depreciate as the result of their actions. Work is but one of the sites in which a classless, self-formed identity can be cultivated and calibrated in all aspects of life. I show how this perception plays out in professionals' attitudes toward their work lives and after-work activities.2025-01-01T00:00:00ZStrengthening memory: The impact of resistance training on cognitive health in aging and cognitive impairmentEnnahli, K.Miguel, D.http://hdl.handle.net/10071/371962026-05-11T12:01:51Z2026-01-01T00:00:00ZTítulo próprio: Strengthening memory: The impact of resistance training on cognitive health in aging and cognitive impairment
Autoria: Ennahli, K.; Miguel, D.
Resumo: This review examines resistance training (RT) as a pathway for preserving declarative memory in later life, addressing a critical gap in the literature where RT has been largely subsumed under general physical activity despite its distinct neurobiological profile. We aimed to clarify whether RT uniquely supports declarative memory vulnerable to healthy aging, mild cognitive impairment, and early neurodegenerative pathology. We conducted a multilevel synthesis of evidence from randomized controlled trials, neuroimaging studies, electrophysiology, and molecular research examining RT effects on memory, brain structure, network connectivity, and underlying biological mechanisms. Particular attention was given to hippocampal subfields, default-mode and fronto-hippocampal networks, and exercise-responsive neurotrophic, vascular, metabolic, and inflammatory pathways. Across modalities, converging evidence indicates that RT attenuates hippocampal and precuneus atrophy, preserves white-matter integrity, strengthens functional connectivity within memory networks, and enhances neural efficiency indexed by oscillatory and event-related electrophysiological markers. Biologically, RT reliably increases insulin-like growth factor-1 and improves insulin sensitivity, endothelial function, and inflammatory balance, creating a plastic milieu that supports hippocampal resilience. Cognitive benefits are most consistent in mild cognitive impairment, with parallel improvements in mood, functional independence, and quality of life. These findings position RT as a scalable, cost-effective intervention that compares favorably with other intervention modalities. Progressive RT should be considered a core component of prevention and care strategies for cognitive aging, with implications for clinical practice, community programs, and public health policy.2026-01-01T00:00:00ZTransporte rodoviário, acidente de viação e direito ao reembolso do segurador e do fundo de garantia automóvelPoças, L.http://hdl.handle.net/10071/371872026-05-11T09:13:25Z2025-01-01T00:00:00ZTítulo próprio: Transporte rodoviário, acidente de viação e direito ao reembolso do segurador e do fundo de garantia automóvel

Resumo: No contexto da Lei do Seguro Obrigatório de Responsabilidade Civil Automóvel, está previsto um leque de situações em que o segurador ou o Fundo de Garantia Automóvel estão obrigados a indemnizar o lesado por danos decorrentes de acidente de viação, conservando, não obstante, o direito a serem depois reembolsados pelo responsável civil. Neste quadro, o presente estudo visa analisar o sentido e alcance de cada uma dessas previsões legais (aferindo da coerência, pertinência e completude desse elenco), determinar o seu âmbito de aplicação, compreender os respetivos fundamentos e discutir a sua função à luz do sistema de seguro obrigatório de responsabilidade civil automóvel. Por outro lado, o texto visa igualmente circunscrever e testar a plasticidade dos institutos do direito de regresso e da sub-rogação legal, que formalmente dão suporte jurídico a uma figura funcional com uma natureza comum: um direito ao reembolso, que encontra solo fértil no seguro obrigatório. Para tanto, recorrer-se-á às potencialidades do método jurídico, lançando mão do invulgarmente abundante acervo doutrinário e jurisprudencial que o tema tem vindo a propiciar.2025-01-01T00:00:00ZBarriers and facilitators of digital health use among older adults: Insights from participatory workshopsBobrowicz-Campos, E.Camilo, C.Medeiros, A.Fernandes, C.
