Análisis de las publicaciones españolas sobre Documentación e Informática Médica

1994

Se estudia la producción española de documentación e información médicas, en sus distintas áreas de especialización, hasta el año 1991. Se analiza el crecimiento de la producción de los diferentes tipos de documentos sobre la disciplina, así como las materias, instituciones de procedencia y distribución geográfica . Los resultados muestran la gran dispersión de los trabajos sobre el tema y el predominio de los estudios dedicados a la documentación clínica, producidos en instituciones hospitalarias.

Colloidal stability of halloysite clay nanotubes

2019

Abstract The colloidal stability of halloysite clay nanotubes dispersion is reviewed showing the strategy and the mechanism to obtain stable systems in water and apolar solvents. The selective modification of halloysite inner/outer surfaces can be achieved by exploiting electrostatic interactions. The adsorption of anionic surfactants onto the halloysite cavity allows generating inorganic cylindrical micelles that can be separated from the solvent. On the other hand, the functionalization of halloysite shell by positively charged surfactants drives to obtain stable water-in-oil emulsions. The interactions with ionic and nonionic polymers alters the dispersability of halloysite due to electr…

The intensification of absorbance changes in leaves by light-dispersion

1979

In dispersive samples, like leaves, the absorbance of pigments is intensified. The intensification is due to a longer optical path through the dispersive sample. However, in chloroplast suspensions the optical path is not much longer than in clear solutions. The factor of intensification β (=the lengthening of the optical path) is calculated by comparing the absorbance of leaves and the absorbance of chloroplast suspensions with equal pigment-content. This method also includes the influence of possible sieve effects which could decrease absorbance. The measurements are carried out with high- and low-light leaves of different thickness and pigment content. The intensification of absorbance w…

Multicomponent solid dispersion as a formulation strategy to improve drug permeation: A case study on the anti-colorectal cancer irinotecan

2019

Abstract Multicomponent solid dispersions (MSD)s are frequently proposed as efficient drug delivery systems to improve drug solubility and bioavailability. In this study, the effects of specific excipients, such as mannitol, inulin, poly(methyl methacrylate-co-methacrylic)acid (PMMA) and cellulose acetate phthalate (CAP) have been tested to potentially improve irinotecan (IRN) permeation in the intestinal tract with the intention to protect the drug from the gastric environment. MSDs were formulated as microparticles by Spray-Drying technique. Raw materials and microparticles have been characterized by FTIR analysis to determine hydrogen bonding. SEM images were recorded to investigate morp…

Optical rotatory dispersion and circular dichroism of poly-L-lactide. A reply to a letter by M. Goodman and M. D'alagni (1)

Ein optisch aktives Polyamid mit atropisomeren Binaphthyl-Grundbausteinen

1968

Zur Darstellung eines optisch aktiven Polyamids mit atropisomeren Grundbausteinen in der Hauptkette wurde (+)-2.2′-Diamino-binaphthyl-(1.1′) (II) hergestellt. Die Drehwerte in einigen Losungsmitteln sowie optische Rotationsdispersion (ORD), Circulardichroismus (CD) und UV-Spektrum werden angegeben. Durch Grenzflachenpolykondensation von II mit Terephthaloylchlorid wurde ein optisch aktives Polyamid (III) erhalten. Drehwerte, ORD und CD von III werden gemessen und mit denen des als Modellsubstanz dargestellten (+)-2.2′-Dibenzamido-binaphthyls-(1.1′) (IV) verglichen. Beide Substanzen zeigen mehrere COTTON-Effekte, die hinsichtlich ihres Vorzeichens ubereinstimmen. In ihrer Lage sind jedoch di…

The simplex dispersion ordering and its application to the evaluation of human corneal endothelia

2009

A multivariate dispersion ordering based on random simplices is proposed in this paper. Given a R^d-valued random vector, we consider two random simplices determined by the convex hulls of two independent random samples of sizes d+1 of the vector. By means of the stochastic comparison of the Hausdorff distances between such simplices, a multivariate dispersion ordering is introduced. Main properties of the new ordering are studied. Relationships with other dispersion orderings are considered, placing emphasis on the univariate version. Some statistical tests for the new order are proposed. An application of such ordering to the clinical evaluation of human corneal endothelia is provided. Di…

Price dispersion, competition, and the role of online travel agents: Evidence from business routes in the Italian airline market

2014

Abstract In this article, using data from the Italian airline market, we study the role of online travel agents (OTAs) in driving price dispersion as compared to the effect of airlines’ websites. Specifically, we investigate how distinctive factors between OTAs and airlines’ direct channels influence price dispersion. We find that after controlling for OTAs’ features related to airline competition, price dispersion should be lower in the OTA channel relative to airlines’ direct channels. On the other hand, we also find that OTAs’ features related to the presence of airline competition play in favor of higher price dispersion in such indirect channel.
