Several studies have shown that basic emotions are responsible for a significant enhancement of early visual processes and increased activation in visual processing brain regions. It may be possible that the cognitive uncertainty and repeated behavioral checking evident in Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is due to the existence of abnormalities in basic survival circuits, particularly those associated with ...
O presente trabalho resulta da adaptação e actualização do artigo «O Complexo Vulcano--Sedimentar da Faixa Piritosa: Estratigrafia, Vulcanismo e Mineralizações Associadas no Contexto da Zona Sul Portuguesa» de autoria de Oliveira et al., inserido no Livro Geologia de Portugal no Contexto da Ibéria, editado por Rui Dias, Alexandre Araújo, Pedro Terrinha e Carlos Kulberg e publicado pela Universidade de Évora, e...
Puerperal psychosis (PP) is an exuberant clinical syndrome with an estimated frequency of 1 case per 1,000 childbirths that has been most consistently associated with the bipolar disorders spectrum. Available evidence is scarce, namely regarding management and treatment. The authors present the clinical case of a 28 year-old first-time mother, with no psychiatric history, who developed a florid psychotic syndro...
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) involves failures in two main inhibitory processes, namely cognitive (obsessions) and behavioral (compulsions). Recent research has supported two cortical-subcortical pathways on OCD pathogenesis: (a) the frontostriatal loop (dorsolateral-caudate-striatum-thalamus) responsible for impairments of behavioral inhibition; (b) the orbitofrontal loop (orbitofrontal, medial prefront...
During the last three years geoscientists of various institutions have developed a project aiming the setup of a geoconservation strategy in Portugal (Brilha, 2009). One of the main goals of the project was the establishment of an inventory of the most important Portuguese geosites, under the scientific point of view. In a near future, national authorities will consider this inventory as a technical support for...
The Berrocal area is situated in the northern limb of Valverde del Camino anticlinal in the Spanish sector the Iberian Belt and exposes the upper part of the Phyllite-Quartzite Group. Recent studies on palynostratigraphy and sedimentology of the Berocal section indicates that the stratigraphic succession is late Famennian age (VH miospore biozone) and was accumulated on the offshore zone of a siliciclastic shel...
This work constitutes the first contribution for the systematisation of the geological heritage knowledge in Portugal, following the international recomendations for the characterisation of geological heritage (IUGS, ProGEO). The application of the ProGEO methodology has resulted on the creation of fourteen frameworks with international relevance, established by consensus among the Portuguese geological communi...
