Assessment of genetic variation for pathogen-specific mastitis resistance in Valle del Belice dairy sheep
2016
Background: Mastitis resistance is a complex and multifactorial trait, and its expression depends on both genetic and environmental factors, including infection pressure. The objective of this research was to determine the genetic basis of mastitis resistance to specific pathogens using a repeatability threshold probit animal model. Results: The most prevalent isolated pathogens were coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS); 39 % of records and 77 % of the animals infected at least one time in the whole period of study. There was significant genetic variation only for Streptococci (STR). In addition, there was a positive genetic correlation between STR and all pathogens together (ALL) (0.36 ±…
Determination of milk production losses and variations of fat and protein percentages according to different levels of somatic cell count in Valle de…
2018
The somatic cell count (SCC) of milk is widely used to monitor udder health and the milk quality and because of its positive genetic correlation with mastitis this trait was included in breeding schemes of dairy sheep. The aim of this study was to estimate the loss in milk yield (MY) and related composition resulting from different levels of somatic cell count in Valle del Belice dairy sheep. Data were collected between 2006 and 2016 in 15 flocks following an A4 recording scheme. Somatic cell count (SCC), fat and protein percentage (F% and P%) were determined using mid-infrared spectroscopy. To evaluate loss in test day MY, F% and P%, five different classes of SCC were arbitrarily defined: …
Kildare rebellion (1534-1535) in the Annals of the Four Masters
2020
Abstract One of the most important Irish historical sources, which are the Annals of the Four Masters, written in the modern period, provide us with unusually valuable information about the history of the Emerald Island. In addition to data from the ancient or medieval periods, it also contains material from the difficult 16th and 17th centuries for Ireland, when it came under the yoke of English Protestants, who were initially represented by the Tudors and then by the Stuart dynasty. The Annals of the Four Masters also witnesses the resistance of the Irish, both those from Hiberno Normans and Gaelic Irish, to the demands of new authorities, including the rejection of Catholicism and total …
Interpretar el concepte de RSE en estudiants de postgrau: repte per a la RSU
2019
espanolLas universidades que adoptan seriamente la Responsabilidad Social Universitaria (RSU) asumen la responsabilidad de formar profesionales comprometidos con la sociedad en la que viven, dotados de competencias eticas y con un fuerte sentido de ciudadania. En el caso de los postgrados que forman los futuros lideres empresariales, estas universidades deben otorgar a la Responsabilidad Social Empresaria (RSE) un lugar central en su malla curricular. Contar con informacion sobre el conocimiento e interpretacion de este concepto que poseen los nuevos estudiantes es un insumo critico para el diseno adecuado de programas academicos orientados a ese fin. En este documento se presentan los resu…
Homeward : caratteri, strategie compositive, poetiche dell’abitare
2020
Il volume raccoglie dei saggi elaborati a partire da alcune lectures universitarie che, attraverso l’esposizione e il commento di alcuni edifici esemplari, testimoniano la possibile ricerca di un testo “ideale”. Una traccia di fondo tiene insieme maestri come Soane, Schinkel, Loos, Asplund, Taut, Mies van der Rohe, Le Corbusier, Kahn, e si riflette nelle loro opere: tutti hanno avuto una grande passione per l’architettura classica. Dai più lontani nel tempo sino a quelli più prossimi, c’è stata una trasmissione di questioni, di principi e insegnamenti come discendenze, lungo trame riscontrabili in filigrana. Si indaga con ampi riferimenti critici il legame delle opere con le circostanze che…

Utilizzo di un modello diffusivo 2D di acque basse PER LA simulazione in tempo reale di scenari di inondazioni
2010
I recenti cambiamenti climatici e le sempre più frequenti inondazioni rendono particolarmente attuale l’utilizzo di sistemi di allerta per facilitare l’evacuazione precoce della popolazione e la messa in sicurezza dei beni. I suddetti sistemi sono basati in parte sulla previsione a breve termine delle piogge, in parte sulla stima del processo di trasformazione afflussi-deflussi e della propagazione dell’onda di piena. Nella presente memoria il modello diffusivo MAST 2D ad avanzamento spaziale e temporale già proposto da alcuni degli autori viene ulteriormente migliorato per una più rapida soluzione ed una migliore adattabilità all’uso del calcolo parallelo. Viene introdotta una nuova soluzi…
Reaching professional skills with the Final Master Thesis: Collaboration towards actual solutions
2019
[EN] In order to motivate the student through a professional experience, and to improve the teaching-learning process by letting the student gain experience, we implement a collaborative learning-through-service methodology. This method increases the student involvement level and the deep understanding of the tools. As a matter of example, we present the implementation of this method in the Final Master Thesis (FMTh) of the Master on Corporate Finance at the University of Valencia (UV). In these FMTh, students have to valuate an actual innovation developed by UV researchers (on chemistry, in this case) with the goal of helping them to transfer (sell) this innovation to the industry. This co…

Background: Subclinical mastitis (SCM) is an inflammatory condition of the mammary gland. We examined the effects of SCM on human milk (HM) composition, infant growth, and HM intake in a mother&ndash
Hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation for advanced systemic mastocytosis
2014
Purpose Advanced systemic mastocytosis (SM), a fatal hematopoietic malignancy characterized by drug resistance, has no standard therapy. The effectiveness of allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (alloHCT) in SM remains unknown. Patients and Methods In a global effort to define the value of HCT in SM, 57 patients with the following subtypes of SM were evaluated: SM associated with clonal hematologic non–mast cell disorders (SM-AHNMD; n = 38), mast cell leukemia (MCL; n = 12), and aggressive SM (ASM; n = 7). Median age of patients was 46 years (range, 11 to 67 years). Donors were HLA-identical (n = 34), unrelated (n = 17), umbilical cord blood (n = 2), HLA-haploidentical (n = 1)…
