ESPERIENZE SFAVOREVOLI INFANTILI E VIOLENZA DOMESTICA IN ETÀ ADULTA

2014

La letteratura internazionale ha identificato relazioni interpersonali conflittuali/disturbate in età adulta come sequele a lungo termine di situazioni traumatiche precoci(Bifulco& Thomas, 2013; Valdez et al., 2013). Una storia di abusi infantili(emotivi, fisici, sessuali…) può aumentare il rischio di incorrere in altre forme di maltrattamento in età adulta, inclusa la violenza domestica (IPV-Intimate Partner Violence) (Widom et al., 2008; Kim et al, 2009; Alexander, 2009).Risulta pertanto importante l’approfondimento delle condizioni di sviluppo sottostanti allo strutturarsi di tali problematiche. La Childhood Experience of Care and Abuse(CECA)Interview (Bifulcoet al., 1994; Giannone, Schi…

Assessing Hydrus-2D model to investigate the effects of different on-farm irrigation strategies on potato crop under subsurface drip irrigation

2019

The objective of this paper was to assess the performance of Hydrus-2D model to simulate the effects of different on-farm irrigation strategies applied on potato crop. The ability of the model to simulate the stress coefficient (Ks), obtained as the ratio between actual and maximum transpiration, and to define the productive function of potato crop under the semi-arid conditions of central Tunisia were also evaluated. Experiments were carried out on potato crop under full (FI) and deficit irrigation (DI) and two different water qualities supplied by means of a subsurface drip irrigation system. Results evidenced that the model, despite some discrepancies locally observed, can fairly accurat…

Age and case mix-standardised survival for all cancer patients in Europe 1999-2007: Results of EUROCARE-5, a population-based study

2015

Background: Overall survival after cancer is frequently used when assessing a health care service’s performance as a whole. It is mainly used by the public, politicians and the media, and is often dismissed by clinicians because of the heterogeneous mix of different cancers, risk factors and treatment modalities. Here we give survival details for all cancers combined in Europe, correlating it with economic variables to suggest reasons for differences. Methods: We computed age and cancer site case- mix standardised relative survival for all cancers combined (ACRS) for 29 countries participating in the EUROCARE-5 project with data on more than 7.5 million cancer cases from 87 population-based…

Validating an apple dry matter production model with whole canopy gas exchange measurements in the field

1999

The simplified apple dry matter production model developed by Lakso and Johnson (1990) was modified by inputing tree-specific parameters from a study of seasonal growth and gas exchange of 4-year-old Empire/M.9 apple trees, and light and temperature response curves developed for Empire apple organs. Measurements of the seasonal trend of diurnal net C02 and canopy water vapor exchange were made at intervals on three four-year-old 'Empire'/M.9 slender spindle apple trees in the orchard from 10 days after bloom until 25 days after harvest. The tree canopies were enclosed in clear plastic "balloon- type" chambers (similar to Corelli and Magnanini, 1993) that was monitored continuously for more …

Effects of partial rootzone drying and rootstock vigour on dry matter partitioning of apple trees (Malus domesticacvar Pink Lady)

2011

SUMMARYThe effects of partial rootzone drying (PRD) and rootstock vigour on dry matter accumulation and partitioning among leaves, shoots, fruits, frame and roots of apple trees (Malus domesticaBorkh. cvar Pink Lady) were investigated in 2005 near Caltavuturo, in Sicily. In a first field trial, trees on MM.106 rootstock were subjected to: conventional irrigation (CI), maintaining soil moisture above 0·80 of field capacity; PRD irrigation, where alternating sides of the rootzone received 0·50 of the CI irrigation water; and continuous deficit irrigation (DI), where 0·50 of the CI water was equally applied to both sides of the rootzone. In a second trial, trees on M.9 or MM.106 were subjected…

Cardiac output following fetoscopic coagulation of major placental vessels in fetal sheep.

2008

Objectives To measure changes in cardiac output (CO) after partial cord occlusion in fetal sheep in order to investigate pathophysiological fetal adaptation mechanisms in a simulated acute placental insufficiency model under standardized conditions, with the aim of finding relevant methods for monitoring human fetuses during stress situations. Methods We used minimally invasive, percutaneous endoscopic techniques to close umbilical vessels in mid-gestational fetal sheep. Placental blood flow was reduced by preferentially closing first arterial and then the concomitant venous umbilical vessels within a short time interval. The investigations were carried out on 11 pregnant ewes at a median g…

Lavoro Domestico

2015

Il lavoro domestico presenta numerose peculiarità che ne rendono complesso l’inquadramento dal punto di vista della salute e della sicurezza dei lavoratori. In primo luogo il soggetto casalingo trascorre molto tempo all’interno delle mura domestiche, con tempi di esposizione alle diverse noxae lesive lunghi e difficilmente quantificabili; in secondo luogo è estremamente difficile promuovere in modo capillare le attività tipicamente svolte negli altri ambiti lavorativi, quali l’attuazione delle misure di prevenzione e protezione del lavoratore, la valutazione dei rischi, l’informazione e la formazione o la sorveglianza sanitaria. I vari fattori di rischio, sia per la sicurezza sia per la sal…

Socioeconomic factors and cervical cancer mortality in Spain during the period 1989?1997

2002

A study was made of cervical cancer (CC) mortality trends in Spain during the period 1989–1997 at National, Autonomous Community and Provincial levels, in relation to different socioeconomic factors. Data were obtained from the Spanish National Institute of Statistics (Instituto Nacional de Estadistica, INE). The crude mortality rates were age-adjusted using the indirect method and Gross Domestic Product (GDP) as socioeconomic status (SES) indicator. National CC age-adjusted mortality rates have increasing slightly, varying from 3.09 deaths/100,000 women in 1989 to 3.42 in 1996. The highest age-adjusted mortality rates corresponded to Seville, Palencia and Orense, with 4.13, 4.06 and 3.98 c…

The use of zooplankton metrics to determine the trophic status and ecological potential: An approach in a large Mediterranean watershed.

2021

In the European Water Framework Directive, zooplankton was not included as a Biological Quality Element despite its important place in the aquatic trophic web. In the present study on zooplankton abundances and biomasses, we used several metrics to test their ability to detect differences among trophic statuses and ecological potential levels, and collected a large sum of data in more than 60 reservoirs at Ebro watershed, on more than 300 sampling occasions over 10 years. Our results indicate that most zooplankton metrics are correlated to environmental variables that determine reservoirs’ trophic states, especially chlorophyll a and total phosphorus. The metrics with better sensitivity to …
