Bartolomeu de Messines is integrated in the A2 – 1998 Southern Motorway, which connects Lisbon to the Algarve. It begins shortly after the Almodôvar Interchange, to the West of Gomes Aires, crosses the entire Preliminary Study: Caldeirão Mountain Range, and ends after crossing the Gavião River, which lies to 1999 the East of S. Bartolomeu de Messines. Final Design: Special reference is made to the topographical difficulties encountered in the zone 1999/2000 set out for the alignment, which lead to the design of 22 viaducts and a longitudinal profile that resorted to gradients with longitudinal declivities larger than 3% and Technical Assistance: longer than 420 m. In these areas (since approximately km 5,6 to km 21,0) three 2000/2002 traffic lanes in each direction were provided for, which resulted from an analysis carried out for implementation of additional climbing lanes.

Who was incredibly generous and always available along the process. Thanks for being demanding, realistic and for always being ready to listen and answer to my questions. This project would not have moved forward without his precious guidance. Special thanks also to professor Jorge Mendes for his advice during the development of this dissertation. The most important lesson I have learned in the past two years was not to give up. I thank Helena for never letting me do so and for her unconditional support; my parents, and my sister for being my greatest inspiration and example of resilience and hard work - I would not be half of what I am today without them; Ricardo for listening to my very specific technical questions; my grandparents and Rafa, for keeping my heart warm; Cláudia and Zara for making this long road so much fun and for teaching me so much. iv ABSTRACT One of the measures used to evaluate the success of an education system is the retention rate.

  • Incidence of Multiple Sclerosis in Northern Lisbon, Portugal: 1998-2007
    de Sá et al. BMC Neurology (2014) 14:249 DOI 10.1186/s12883-014-0249-1 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Incidence of multiple sclerosis in Northern Lisbon, Portugal: 1998–2007 Joao de Sá1, Enrique Alcalde-Cabero2,3, Javier Almazán-Isla2,3, Fernando García-López2,3 and Jesús de Pedro-Cuesta2,3,4* Abstract Background: There are few, recent, well assessed, multiple sclerosis (MS) incidence surveys on European populations. This study sought to measure MS incidence in a Northern Lisbon population and assess it using capture-recapture methods (CRMs). Methods: Among the population residing in the Northern Lisbon Health Area, registered MS diagnoses were obtained from general practitioners in three primary-care districts covering a population of 196,300, and a neurology unit at the main referral hospital. Cases with onset during the periods 1978–1997 and 2008–2012 were excluded due to perceived poor access to image-supported neurological diagnosis and administrative changes in patient referral respectively. Age- and sex-specific incidences for the period 1998–2007 were calculated using McDonald diagnostic criteria, and CRMs were used to correct age-specific incidence rates. The corrected figures were also adjusted for age using the European Standard Population as reference. Results: When applied to 62 MS patients with onset in the period 1998–2007, the rates per 100,000 population were as follows for both sexes: crude, 3.16; age-adjusted, 3.09 (95% CI 2.32 to 3.87); CRM-adjusted, 4.53 (95% CI 3.13 to 5.94); and age- and CRM-adjusted, 4.48 (3.54-5.41).

    Odivelas municipality The birth of Odivelas municipality Odivelas is one of the newest counties of Portugal, having been created on November 19, 1998. Is located in the district of Lisbon, Region of Extremadura. As part of the Lisbon Metropolitan Area, has borders with the municipalities of Loures, Amadora, Lisbon and Sintra. Since 2013, it is administratively divided into 4 parishes, Odivelas, Union of Parishes Pontinha and Famões, Union of Parishes of Póvoa de Sto. Adrião and Olival Basto and the Union of Parishes of Ramada and Caneças, distributed in an area of 26.4 km2. Geographically the Odivelas municipality takes the peripheral territorial status of the capital Lisbon, currently being a county with a recognized urban and social quality and outstanding at national level, with enhanced identity and being the holder of good references in structural areas such as education, action and social support, sport and culture. Brief history: Philologically, the word “Odivelas” comprises two elements "Odi" and "velas". The first is of Arab origin and means "watercourse". "Velas" is a Latin word referring to the sails of windmills. The history of Odivelas municipality is associated with King Dinis, since the birth of Odivelas region dates back to the thirteenth century when King Dinis decided to erect in Odivelas, a monastery, invocating St. Denis and St. Bernard, attracting to this territory and the surrounding regions, members of the court nobility, artists and the people. The Odivelas municipality also refers to other landmarks, including the Caneças Aqueduct associated with the various waterways, remaining in the county, as well as the installation of Movement Command Post of the Armed Forces, in Pontinha, in April 1974, constituting a major symbol of Portugal’s democracy.
