Diabète de type 2 chez le sujet âgé : quelles spécificités ?

2012

Type 2 diabetes, whose prevalence has increased among elderly aged over 75 years, has a number of specific features which differ from that in young people: heterogeneous population, association with other cardiovascular risk factors and several comorbidities, different therapeutic constraints and risks, and lower life expectancy. By using a standardized geriatric assessment it is possible to determine therapeutic and glycemic goals for each patient. In the elderly, main complications of diabetes are hypoglycemia and foot lesions. In order to avoid malnutrition, lifestyle and dietary rules should not be too strict. Recommendations for the prescription of oral antidiabetic agents are the same…

Psiholoģiskais romāns latviešu literatūrā (1920-1940): žanra poētika

2017

Pētījums “Psiholoģiskais romāns latviešu literatūrā (1920–1940): žanra poētika” ir mēģinājums raksturot psiholoģiskā romāna žanra specifiku un izpausmes Latvijas pirmās brīvvalsts laikā. Pētījumā skatīti 10 romāni: Pāvila Rozīša “Divas sejas” (1921) un “Uguns ceļi” (1924), Kārļa Zariņa “Dzīvība un trīs nāves” (1921) un “Dārza māja” (1930), Jāņa Jaunsudrabiņa “Nāves deja” (1924) un “Ziema” (1925), Kārļa Ieviņa “Sievietes meklēšana” (1926), Ādolfa Ersa “Mīlestības varavīksne” (1930), Jāņa Veseļa “Dienas krusts” (1932) un Aīdas Niedras “Sieva” (1938). Pētījumā tiek definēts psiholoģiskā romāna žanrs, skaidroti latviešu prozas procesi 20. gadsimta 20.–30. gados, klasificētas 20. gadsimta 20.–30…

On presentations for mapping class groups of orientable surfaces via Poincaré's Polyhedron theorem and graphs of groups

2021

The mapping class group of an orientable surface with one boundary component, S, is isomorphic to a subgroup of the automorphism group of the fundamental group of S. We call these subgroups algebraic mapping class groups. An algebraic mapping class group acts on a space called ordered Auter space. We apply Poincaré's Polyhedron theorem to this action. We describe a decomposition of ordered Auter space. From these results, we deduce that the algebraic mapping class group of S is a quotient of the fundamental group of a graph of groups with, at most, two vertices and, at most, six edges. Vertex and edge groups of our graph of groups are mapping class groups of orientable surfaces with one, tw…

Impact on Air Quality of the COVID-19 Lockdown in the Urban Area of Palermo (Italy).

2020

At the end of 2019, the first cases of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) were reported in Wuhan, China. Thereafter, the number of infected people increased rapidly, and the outbreak turned into a national crisis, with infected individuals all over the country. The COVID-19 global pandemic produced extreme changes in human behavior that affected air quality. Human mobility and production activities decreased significantly, and many regions recorded significant reductions in air pollution. The goal of our investigation was to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 lockdown on the concentrations of the main air pollutants in the urban area of Palermo (Italy). In this study, the trends in the average…

COVID-19 Infection Process in Italy and Spain: Are the Data Talking?

2020

Background: COVID-19 has spread successfully worldwide in a matter of weeks. After the example of China, all the affected countries are taking hard-confinement measures to control the infection and to gain some time to diminish the big amount of cases that arrive to hospital. Although the measures in China reduced the percentages of new cases, this is not seen in other countries that have taken similar measures, such as Italy and Spain. Now we are in the middle of a battle trying to prevent the healthcare system from collapsing while it effectively responds to the needs of patients who are infected and require hospitalization. Methods: Using China as a mirror of what could happen in our cou…

Prevalence of SARS-CoV-2-IgG Antibodies in Children with CKD or Immunosuppression

2021

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) rapidly spread from China as a pandemic, with Italy one of the most affected countries worldwide. Unlike adults, children have a milder presentation of COVID-19, even when affected by CKD or on immunosuppressive therapy for glomerulopathies and kidney

Exposing Empirical Links between COVID-19 Situation Report and Available Data: The Case of Nigeria

2020

Ever since the index case of COVID-19 was announced in Nigeria, the number of confirmed cases has gradually increased to 46,140 (about 4.5% of total confirmed cases in Africa) as the time of writing this article. This seemingly low number of confirmed cases has provoked heated debates among researchers. This cross-sectional study explores the Nigerian COVID-19 report to expose some links between the number of confirmed cases, testing, and some environmental conditions. The findings reveal that there is no state in Nigeria which has up to 12 confirmed cases per 10,000 population. That means, the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases is less than 0.15% of the population of people across each sta…
