Work-related biomechanical exposure and job strain in midlife separately and jointly predict disability after 28 years: a Finnish longitudinal study

2017

Objectives We investigated whether the extent of biomechanical exposures and job strain in midlife separately and jointly predict disability in old age. Methods Participants of the Finnish Longitudinal Study on Aging Municipal Employees (FLAME) in 1981 (aged 44–58 years) responded to disability questionnaires in 2009 (1850 women and 1082 men). Difficulties in performing five activities of daily living (ADL) and seven instrumental ADL (IADL) were used to assess severity of disability (score range: 0–12, 0=no disability). Information on biomechanical exposures and job strain was collected by questionnaire at baseline. Adjusted prevalence proportion ratios (PR) and 95% confidence intervals (95…

Next generation water-smart management systems: large scale demonstrations for a circular economy and society

Water security is among the most crucial challenges for water management today. As a consequence, innovative water management solutions and alternative water resources are required. The EU-funded WATER-MINING project will exhibit and validate innovative next-generation water resource solutions at the pre-commercial demonstration-scale in accordance with relevant legislation, such as the Water Framework Directive, Circular Economy and EU Green Deal packages. It will combine water management services with the improvement of renewable resources such as mining water. It is envisaged that the value-added end products will offer supplies of regional resources to increase economic growth. The proj…

Museo storico dei Motori e dei Meccanismi

The energy is neither created nor destroyed but is transformed. To carry out this process and get the form of energy from time to time more useful, many machines were invented, whose development and whose applications have had significant effects in the scientific, economic and social. From the Industrial Revolution onwards, the use of machines has spread everywhere, in the energy sector, industry, transport, household etc. Understand the history and prospects of development therefore it means to enrich their scientific and cultural heritage. The Museum houses important collections of engines, mechanisms, industrial, scientific and educational that, since the founding of the Royal Applicati…

11,12-EET Stimulates the Association of BK Channel α and β1 Subunits in Mitochondria to Induce Pulmonary Vasoconstriction

2012

In the systemic circulation, 11,12-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (11,12-EET) elicits nitric oxide (NO)- and prostacyclin-independent vascular relaxation, partially through the activation of large conductance Ca(2+)-activated potassium (BK) channels. However, in the lung 11,12-EET contributes to hypoxia-induced pulmonary vasoconstriction. Since pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells also express BK channels, we assessed the consequences of BKβ(1) subunit deletion on pulmonary responsiveness to 11,12-EET as well as to acute hypoxia. In buffer-perfused mouse lungs, hypoxia increased pulmonary artery pressure and this was significantly enhanced in the presence of NO synthase (NOS) and cyclooxygenase (…

EQCM and Quartz Crystal Impedance Measurements for the Characterization of Thiophene-Based Conducting Polymers

1999

AbstractEQCM was extensively used to investigate ion-transport phenomena during dopingundoping processes of electronically conducting polymers. Several early studies assumed that the polymer films were rigidly coupled to the quartz crystal so as to relate the mass change to the quartz crystal resonant frequency change via the Sauerbrey equation. However, the rigidity of electronically conducting polymer films is doubtful and it has to be demonstrated. Quartz crystal impedance analysis near the resonance is of paramount importance to get insight into the viscoelastic properties of the film [1] and to avoid misleading in the interpretation of EQCM data.This contribution presents and discusses…

Los deberes de los administradores en situación de insolvencia inminente en la propuesta de Directiva sobre marcos de reestructuración.

2019

La última versión de la Propuesta de Directiva sobre marcos de reestructuración preventiva de 28 de marzo de 2019, ha recuperado en su art. 19 la obligación de los administradores de tomar en consideración el interés de los acreedores en las situaciones de insolvencia inminente. Dicha obligación supone una modulación del contenido del interés social en dicha situación, el cual junto al interés de los socios, comprende también el interés de los acreedores. Esta configuración compleja del interés social obliga por tanto a analizar cuál es el concreto contenido de los deberes de los administradores en dicha situación de insolvencia inminente, habida cuenta de su orientación hacia la consecució…
