Measurements of alveolar pO2 using 19F-MRI in partial liquid ventilation.
2003
Rationale and Objectives: Partial liquid ventilation using Perfluorcarbon (PFC) is an innovative treatment of acute respiratory distress syndrome. However, the underlying mechanisms are not totally clear. The aim was to investigate the distribution of oxygen partial pressure within the PFC-filled lung (ppO 2 ). Methods: Nine pigs underwent partial liquid ventilation, receiving 20 mL PFC/kg bodyweight (bw). Measurements were obtained by a chemical shift selective TurboFLASH sequence at different axial lung levels. ppO 2 was calculated from 1 9 F-MRI by nonlinear curve T 1 -fitting technique after noise correction. Results: Quantification and distribution of ppO 2 was performed successfully. …
Responsabilità genitoriale
2016
La voce enciclopedica si sofferma sulle implicazioni penalistiche della disciplina civilistica della famiglia, e, più in particolare, della responsabilità genitoriale, al fine di comprendere l’evoluzione del ruolo del genitore nel diritto penale.
I ‘‘diritti dell’interessato’’ nel Regolamento generale sulla protezione dei dati personali
2019
The essay analyzes the Regulation EU 2016/679 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data and it pursues the specific goal of providing a unitary reading of the so-called rights of the data subject, whose is proposed a framing as a set of powers, faculties and remedies intended to make up the content of the unitary right of the protection of personal data. The examination of these individual subjective prerogatives allows us to better define the extent and nature of the right of the protection of personal data, also in order to test the consistency of the discipline contained in the Regulation with the proclaimed …
Wireless HROV Control with Compressed Visual Feedback Using Acoustic and RF Links
2020
AbstractUnderwater cooperative robotics offers the possibility to perform challenging intervention applications, such as recovering archeological objects as within the context of the MERBOTS research project, or grasping, transporting and assembly of big objects, using more than one mobile manipulator, as faced by the TWINBOT project. In order to enhance safety during the intervention, it is reasonable to avoid the umbilical, also giving more mobility to the robots, and enabling a broader set of cooperative movements. Several solutions, based on acoustic, radiofrequency (RF) or Visual Light Communication (VLC) have been proposed for underwater communications in the literature. This paper pr…
A TDMA-Based MAC Protocol Supporting Cooperative Communications in Wireless Mesh Networks
2011
This paper proposes a TDMA-based medium access control protocol which enables cooperative communications in multi-hop wireless mesh networks. According to the proposed scheme, each router at the two-hop neighbourhood of each other is allocated to a specific time slot for accommodating either direct or cooperative transmissions in a coordinated manner, controlled by mini-slots which are part of the time slot. Benefiting from the elaborate mini-slot design, channel resources are fairly and efficiently allocated to each router so that no handshake is needed prior to each packet transmission. By providing access priority to cooperative transmission through an optimal relay which is determined b…
A mini-slot-based cooperative MAC protocol for wireless mesh networks
2010
This paper proposes a TDMA-based medium access control protocol with cooperative communications enabled in wireless mesh networks. The proposed scheme is based on a multi-hop scenario which is extended from the conventional one-hop triangle cooperative transmission scenario. Benefiting from the elaborate mini-slot design, channel resources are fairly and efficiently allocated to each router so that no handshake is needed prior to every packet transmission. By giving priority for channel access to cooperative transmission performed by an optimal helper which is determined based on the received SNR, higher successful transmission rate can be achieved. Numerical results demonstrate that the pr…
Broadband Internet Access via Multi-Hop Wireless Mesh Networks: Design, Protocol and Experiments
2010
Published version of an article from the journal: Wireless Personal Communications. The original publication is available at Spingerlink. http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11277-009-9907-9 While bandwidth for Internet access in urban areas is steadily increasing in recent years, many rural areas are still suffering from the effect of the digital divide. This paper presents a broadband Internet access paradigm developed in the context of the ADHOCSYS project, which was financed by the European Commission under the 6th Framework Program Information and Society Technologies, within the strategic objective of Broadband for All. Aiming at providing reliable Internet access in rural and mountainous regi…
Realizing women´s right to maternal health: A study of awareness of rights and utilization of maternal health services among reproductive age women i…
2019
BackgroundMaternal mortality rates are still unacceptably high in many countries, indicating violation of women´s human right to life and health. Access to adequate information about maternal health rights and available services are essential aspects of realizing women´s right to accessible health care. This study aimed at assessing awareness of the right to access maternal health services among women who had recently given birth, and the association between such awareness and the utilization of maternal health services in two districts in Tanzania.MethodsThis study was cross sectional in design. Interviews were conducted with women who gave birth within one year prior to the survey in two …
: Entering University in Taiwan: the Reform
2005
A reform of further education is presently at work in Taiwan, which concerns university access: the programme for diversified admissions in university. In a first place, the author analyses the implementation of this reform and gives a historical light to it. He briefly presents the former programme for admission, the main problems met by students and the repercussions for secondary education. The author then turns towards the problems raised by the Programme for Diversified Admission in University, such as fairness and credibility. He eventually suggests ameliorations to the Programme, as taking all-year results in secondary schools into account, and modifying the way universities are fund…
