Health Impact Assessment (HIA) is a proactive, evidence-based approach that integrates health considerations into decision-making across sectors to prevent adverse effects and promote equity. While global interest in HIA growing, its implementation varies by country. In Portugal, despite existing legal frameworks some previous capacity-building efforts, not fully institutionalized, practice within the Public System (PHS) remains largely undocumented. To address this, we conducted an online...

Abstract Human leukocyte antigen (HLA)‐B*51 is a well‐known genetic factor associated with Behçet’s disease (BD). To analyse the influence of HLA‐B*51 and other HLA class I alleles in BD susceptibility Portuguese population its association severity, we studied 78 patients 208 healthy controls. The were classified into two severity groups as described by Gul et al. As expected, higher frequency was found. HLA‐Cw*16 significantly patients. Regarding HLA‐B*27 severe group compared controls mild...

Abstract Background Health promotion and disease prevention programme registries (HPPRs), also called ‘best practice portals’, serve as entry points practical repositories that provide decision-makers with easy access to (evidence-based) practices. However, there is limited knowledge of differences or overlaps howe current national HPPRs in Europe function, the context circumstances which these were developed, mechanisms utilised by each HPPR for assessment, classification quality...
