Estrategia de revascularización invasiva en el síndrome coronario sin elevación del segmento ST. El debate continúa

2009

Revascularization strategy in the setting of non-ST-segment acute coronary syndromes remains a controversy. Evidence obtained from clinical trials, generally performed in selected patients, reveals heterogeneous and insufficient results when a routine invasive revascularization strategy and a conservative one are compared. The conflicting results among trials are due to differences in: a) baseline characteristics; b) methodology and protocols applied and; c) objectives and outcomes definitions. Although present guidelines recommend that a routine invasive strategy should be used in high risk non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes, there is no consistent evidence that supports thi…

ASSESSMENT OF BEACH LITTER ALONG THE COAST: CASE STUDY OF THE CITY OF CADIZ (SPAIN)

2016

The United Nations Environment Program defines as waste all the persistent marine debris deposited or abandoned in the sea (marine litter) and beach (beach litter) environment. Thus including all substances or products abandoned or involuntarily dispersed into the sea or on the coastline. It has been estimated that, all around the world, about 10 million tons of waste coming from domestic, commercial and industrial activities reach the seas every year. Moreover, waste floating adrift in the seas and oceans can be carried very far away, reaching different places from the ones they were originated. Further, damage may result to various human activities and equipment, such as navigation, energ…

Modeling visual sampling on in-car displays: The challenge of predicting safety-critical lapses of control

2015

In this article, we study how drivers interact with in-car interfaces, particularly by focusing on understanding driver in-car glance behavior when multitasking while driving. The work focuses on using an in-car touch screen to find a target item from a large number of unordered visual items spread across multiple screens. We first describe a cognitive model that aims to represent a driver?s visual sampling strategy when interacting with an in-car display. The proposed strategy assumes that drivers are aware of the passage of time during the search task; they try to adjust their glances at the display to a time limit, after which they switch back to the driving task; and they adjust their t…

Musical affect regulation in adolescents: A conceptual model

2019

Adolescents actively use music for affect regulation. In this chapter, affect is considered as a broad umbrella term containing moods, emotions, motivational impulses, and energy levels. Theoretical and empirical research has recently been unveiling the components involved in affect self-regulation, such as the psychological functions of music listening, affective goals, regulation strategies, and musical mechanisms. The study of these components and of their interactions has resulted in a better understanding of the dynamics between music engagement, wellbeing, and psychological development among adolescents. The purpose of this chapter is to present a conceptual model of musical affect se…

Some Quantitative Aspects of Stability Management Strategy in a Bank

2012

Abstract The stability of commercial bank system is the result of balanced development, which can be characterised by equilibrium and security over a longer period of time. The history of commercial bank system development indicates that reaching and sustaining this qualitative and quantitative state requires regulations and management. One of the most important parts of commercial bank management system is correctly chosen strategy in the circumstances of a changing environment. Strategy gives a possibility to look into the future of the commercial bank, forecast its goals, areas, scale and potential operational results in relation to resource sources and expenses. Nowadays a commercial ba…

Variation and change in English resultative constructions

2010

AbstractThe system of English resultative constructions is in a state of flux characterized by variation between two of its most prominent competitors,way-constructions as inShe worked herwayto the topand reflexive structures as inShe worked herselfto the top.Although this competition has occasionally been addressed in the literature (cf. Jackendoff, 1990:213; Kirchner, 1951:158; Salkoff, 1988:54ff.), the present findings reveal that the long-standing rivalry between these structures has resulted in an increased use of theway-construction at the expense of reflexive structures. In addition, the coexistence ofway-constructions with semantically overlapping reflexive structures eventually cul…

LE AREE INTERNE PER LO SVILUPPO DEL TERRITORIO E LA COMPLEMENTARITÀ DI PROGRAMMI E STRUMENTI FRA LE POLITICHE EUROPEE DI SVILUPPO RURALE E DI COESIONE

Le Aree Interne rappresentano un tema particolarmente importante per la programmazione e la spesa dei fondi comunitari nel periodo 2014-2020 perché costituiscono il più grande esempio di complementarità fra le Politiche europee di sviluppo rurale e di coesione. Per lo sviluppo di queste Aree è stata creata una Strategia Nazionale per le Aree Interne (SNAI) che mira alla valorizzazione ed al recupero di tutti quei territori (rurali, montuosi, svantaggiati) dal carattere marginale rispetto alla disponibilità e all’offerta di servizi essenziali. La peculiarità di tale Strategia è quella di promuovere lo sviluppo di aree che sono uniformemente distribuite in tutto il comprensorio nazionale a di…

Strict compliance with ESC therapeutic guidelines after myocardial infarction treated with invasive strategy correlates with improved 18-month outcom…

2020

Abstract Background Despite improved early outcomes in patients (pts) with acute myocardial infarction (MI) in Poland with prevalent strategy of primary angioplasty by radial access, mid- and long-term outcomes are unsatisfactory. Objective We hypothesized that strict implementation of secondary prevention ESC guidelines in post-infarction management may be related with improved mid-term clinical outcomes Methods We compared 18-month outcomes of pts treated for MI with primary invasive strategy in a tertiary university hospital (NSTEMI 470/47%, or STEMI 535/53%; N=1005; Gr-L) with similar subset from national databases AMI-PL and PL-ACS (N=117307; NSTEMI 50966/43%, STEMI 64078/57%; Gr-Pol).…
