Determining the effects of Eugenol on the bond strength of resin-based restorative materials to dentin : a meta-analysis of the literature
2020
Este artículo se encuentra disponible en la siguiente URL: https://www.mdpi.com/2076-3417/10/3/1070/htm Este artículo pertenece al número especial " Permanent and long-term biodegradable biomaterials". The aim of this study was to determine whether the residual presence of eugenol in coronal dentin may compromise the bond strength of resin-based restorative materials. A search was performed on MEDLINE/Pubmed, Scopus, and by hand search for relevant papers. No restriction was applied for language and publication date. The studies selected for analysis tested specimens with reduced size (micro-shear bond strength ( SBS) and micro-tensile bond strength ( TBS)) of adhesive systems and resin-bas…

Durability of Dolutegravir-Based Regimens: A 5-Year Prospective Observational Study
2021
This study evaluates the frequency and causes of dolutegravir (DTG) discontinuation along 5 years of follow-up, in both antiretroviral treatment (ART)-naive and experienced people living with HIV (PLWH). This is a prospective multi-center cohort study enrolling PLWH on DTG from July 2014 until November 2020. DTG-durability was investigated using the Kaplan-Meier survival curve. The Cox proportional-hazards model was used for estimating the hazard ratio (HR) of DTG discontinuation for any cause, and for adverse events (AEs). Nine hundred sixty-three PLWH were included, 25.3% were women and 28.0% were ART-naive. Discontinuations for any causes were 10.1 [95% confidence interval (95% CI) 8.9-1…
Analysis of ecological shifts in the two‐age structured population model with Allee effect and environmental noise
2020
We study noise-induced transformations in the two-age structured population model with the Allee effect and environmental fluctuations. In this bistable model, ecological shifts are associated mathematically with random transitions between basins of coexisting attractors. The following phenomena are revealed and studied: (i) noise-induced extinction, (ii) stochastic regeneration, and (iii) excitement of random mixed-mode oscillations. Constructive abilities of the analytical method of confidence domains are demonstrated in the parametric study of these phenomena.
Sustainability Assessment of Agricultural Systems in Paraguay: A Comparative Study Using FAO’s SAFA Framework
2019
Sustainability is a topic that is at the center of current discussions in the political, economic, social, and environmental fields. For its analysis, an integral and multidisciplinary vision is needed. This work aims to assess the sustainability of agricultural systems in Paraguay through a comparison applying SAFA (Sustainability Assessment of Food and Agriculture Systems) indicators. The research focuses on 15 case studies on the territory of the Eastern Region of Paraguay divided into five classes of agricultural systems: agribusiness, conventional peasant family farming, agroecological peasant family farming, neo-rural farming, and indigenous agriculture. Data were collected through in…
The importance of social value in agroecological farms: adjusting the common good balance sheet to improve their sustainable management
2021
Organic farming offers the producers the possibility of focusing on their business while obtaining a competitive advantage. Nevertheless, this is centered in specific activities of the production process, thus only creating environmental value. Therefore, it is not an approach based on sustainability. As a consequence of this, it becomes necessary to enlarge this approach toward people (social value) and profitability (economic value). The objective of this work is to describe a tool based on the Economy for the Common Good model applied to the agroecological sector. We propose to adapt the Common Good Matrix to the characteristics of agroecological farms to offer a useful tool to manage an…
Management practices in Finnish manufacturing establishments : evidence from FMOP
2018
Edistysaskeleet aineiston keräämisessä ovat nostaneet johtamiskäytännöt esiin osana vastausta kysymykseen tuottavuuseroista. Kvantitatiiviseen kyselytyökaluun perustuvat tutkimukset ovat löytäneet kumulatiivista näyttöä johtamiskäytäntöjen kyvystä selittää tuottavuuseroja. Kyseisen työkalun nimi on Management and Organizational Practices Survey. Tässä tutkielmassa tarkastellaan Suomen johtamis- ja organisaatiokäytäntöjen kyselyllä eli FMOP-kyselyllä kerätyn aineiston avulla Suomen tehdasteollisuuden toimipaikkojen johtamiskäytäntöjä. Tarkoituksena on selvittää, onko Suomessa tilastollisesti merkitseviä alueellisia eroja johtamiskäytäntöjen laadussa. Helsinki-Uusimaata verrataan muihin Suome…
Management Practices and Allocation of Employment: Evidence from Finnish Manufacturing
2020
We analyse variation in the management practices across countries and across regions within a country. For cross-country comparisons we use the Finnish Management and Organizational Practices Survey (FMOP) to calculate a management score for Finnish manufacturing that is compared to corresponding measures obtained from similar data in the US and Germany. Scores measured by unweighted averages of the establishments in these countries show that Finland is only slightly behind the US and on par with those of Germany. With the FMOP data, we then perform an Olley-Pakes decomposition of the management score using a moment-based estimation procedure. Our decomposition shows no statistically signif…
