Effects of Polyacrylic Acid Pre-Treatment on Bonded-Dentine Interfaces Created with a Modern Bioactive Resin-Modified Glass Ionomer Cement and Subjec…
2018
Objectives: Resin-modified glass ionomer cements (RMGIC) are considered excellent restorative materials with unique therapeutic and anti-cariogenic activity. However, concerns exist regarding the use of polyacrylic acid as a dentine conditioner as it may influence the bonding performance of RMGIC. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different protocols for cycling mechanical stress on the bond durability and interfacial ultramorphology of a modern RMGIC applied to dentine pre-treated with/without polyacrylic acid conditioner (PAA). Methods: The RMGIC was applied onto human dentine specimens prepared with silicon-carbide (SiC) abrasive paper with or without the use of a PAA c…
Well-defined polypeptide-based systems as non-viral vectors for cytosolic delivery
2017
A convenient cytosolic drug delivery constitutes a very powerful tool for the treatment and/or prevention of several relevant human diseases. Along with recent advances in therapeutic technologies based on biomacromolecules (e.g. oligonucleotides or proteins), we also require the development of technologies which improve the transport of therapeutic molecules to the cell of choice. This has led to the emergence of a variety of promising methods over the last 20 years. Despite significant progress, these methods still suffer from several shortcomings including low/variable delivery efficiency, high cytotoxicity, and perhaps most importantly, ineffective endosomal/lysosomal escape. In this co…
In Vitro Evaluation of Poly(lactide-co-glycolide) In Situ Forming Gels for Bedaquiline Fumarate Salt and Pharmacokinetics Following Subcutaneous Inje…
2021
This study evaluated in vitro and in vivo drug release of bedaquiline from in situ forming gels (ISGs) containing 200 mg eq./g bedaquiline fumarate salt prepared with four different grades of poly(d,l-lactide) (PDLLA) or poly(d,l-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) with a lactide/glycolide ratio of 50/50 or 75/25 and acid (A) or ester (E) end-capping in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone at a polymer/solvent ratio of 20/80% (w/w). Mean in vitro drug release in 0.05 M phosphate buffer pH 7.4 with 1% (w/v) sodium lauryl sulphate was 37.3, 47.1, 53.3, and 62.3% within 28 days for ISGs containing PLGA5050A, PDLLA, PLGA7525A, and PLGA7525E, respectively. The data suggested that drug release was primarily controlle…
Applicazioni della Spettroscopia nel vicino infrarosso (fNIRS) e della Mirror Therapy per la riabilitazione dell’arto superiore in pazienti post-stor…
2021
L’ictus cerebrale negli ultimi 20 anni registra un aumento della sua incidenza sulla popolazione italiana, conseguente anche ad un aumento dell’è demografica media. L’ictus determina un’ampia gamma di deficit funzionali che possono essere recuperati con un progetto riabilitativo mirato ed anche rimanere in parte o in toto permanenti. Negli ultimi anni è stato affermato che l’approccio multidisciplinare sembra essere necessario per contribuire ad un recupero funzionale del paziente in tempi brevi. Cercando di garantire al paziente, quanto più possibile, la restituzione di una vita quanto più autonoma possibile, nell’espletamento delle attività di base di vita quotidiana. Lo scopo dell’interv…
The acute effects of different high-intensity conditioning activities on sprint performance differ between sprinters of different strength and power …
2021
The purpose of the present study was to examine the effect of different conditioning activities (CAs) on short-term increase in sprint performance. In twelve male sprinters (21.1+2.6 years, 100 m performance: 11.5+0.6 s) their body composition, half squat maximum strength, 100 m sprinting and countermovement jump performances were evaluated. The performance of a 50 m sprint (splits at 10 m, 30 m and 50 m) was evaluated before and 5, 10 and 15 min after four postactivation performance enhancement CAs on different occasions: [1] 3 sets x 4 s maximum isometric half squat (IHF), [2] 3 sets x 3 consecutive countermovement jumps (cCMJs), [3] 3 repetitions x 30 m overspeed sprinting (OVSP) and [4]…
A Dual Role for Hyperbaric Oxygen in Stroke Neuroprotection: Preconditioning of the Brain and Stem Cells
2018
Stroke continues to be an extremely prevalent disease and poses a great challenge in developing safe and effective therapeutic options. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has demonstrated significant pre-clinical effectiveness for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke, and limited potential in treating chronic neurological deficits. Reported benefits include reductions in oxidative stress, inflammation, neural apoptosis, and improved physiological metrics such as edema and oxygen perfusion, all of which contribute to improved functional recovery. This pre-clinical evidence has failed to translate into an effective evidence-based therapy, however, due in large part to significant inconsistenc…
Profilaktyka i terapia fonoholizmu wśród uczniów szkół podstawowych
2020
Wobec nasilającego się zjawiska fonoholizmu wśród dzieci i młodzieży szczególnego znaczenia nabierają obecnie działania związane z profilaktyką i terapią tego typu zaburzeń. Istotne w nich role mają do odegrania nauczyciele, a także, co oczywiste, rodzice. Ich wysiłki jednak będą skuteczne dopiero wtedy, gdy opanują oni wiedzę dotyczącą mechanizmów powstawania omawianych patologii, zrozumieją cele i zadania, jakie się w tej kwestii przed nimi stawia, sami zaprezentują wartościowe wzorce postępowania. Materiał przytoczony w artykule (w tym wyniki badań sondażowych, przeprowadzonych w grupie rodziców uczniów szkół podstawowych) świadczy o tym, że ani jedni, ani drudzy nie do końca odpowiednio…
Patients’ conceptions of undergoing physiotherapy for persistent low back pain delivered in Finnish primary healthcare by physiotherapists who had pa…
2020
To explore the conceptions of patients with persistent low back pain (LBP) of undergoing physiotherapy delivered in Finnish primary healthcare by physiotherapists who had participated in brief training in Cognitive Functional Therapy (CFT). As part of a feasibility implementation study exploring CFT in management of LBP in the Finnish primary healthcare system, we interviewed nine patients from four geographical areas in Finland after receiving care. We used a phenomenographic approach to explore the variation in their conceptions. The analysis revealed four descriptive categories: “hung out to dry,” “stuck,” “making sense and taking control,” and “holistic approach to care and living,” tha…
Processus attentionnels et apprentissage moteur
2012
International audience; Le but de cet article est de synthétiser les travaux portant sur les effets de l’attention volontaire sur l’apprentissage d’une habileté motrice. Les premiers modèles d’apprentissage considèrent que l’apprenant franchit plusieurs étapes au cours desquelles la sollicitation des processus attentionnels diminue (Fitts & Posner, 1967). Ainsi, la réalisation d’un mouvement nécessiterait d’engager de l’attention en début d’apprentissage alors qu’elle serait automatique en fin d’apprentissage. Cet article propose de vérifier cette affirmation au regard des recherches récentes qui révèlent que l’apprenant débutant module volontairement son attention a fin d’optimiser la réal…
