Welcome aboard: are birds migrating across the Mediterranean Sea using ships as stopovers during adverse weather conditions?
2022
Birds use stopovers during migration to interrupt endurance flight in order to minimize immediate and/or future fitness costs. Stopovers on ships is considered an exceptional and anecdotal event in the ornithological literature. This does not match the experience we had in the summer of 2021, during an oceanographic campaign in the Central Mediterranean, when we regularly observed on average 2.8 birds, of at least 13 species, stopping on board during the 25 days of the campaign. The median stopping time was 42 min, ranging from a few minutes to overnight stays on board. The probability of finding a bird stopping aboard increased with wind force and cloud cover. Birds also stopped more often…

SAT0373 Role of Inkt Cells in Patients with Primary Sjogren Syndrome
2015
Background iNKT cells represent a T cell subset at the bridge between innate and adaptive immunity, playing a role in regulating auto-antibody-producing B cells before their entry into germinal centers. Therefore the absence and/or reduction of iNKT cells seem to increase auto-reactive B cell activation. Primary Sjogren9s syndrome (pSS) is a systemic autoimmune disease in which lymphocyte infiltration and organization in lymphoid structures of inflamed salivary glands occur. Objectives The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of iNKT in the salivary glands and peripheral blood of patients with pSS and their function by using CD1d/aGalactosylceramide (aGalaCer) tetramers. Metho…
Cellul�re Immunreaktionen gegen�ber homologen leberspezifischen Antigenen (HLP) bei chronischen Leberentz�ndungen
1974
Es wird eine Zweiphasentechnik des Leukocyten-Migrations-Inhibitionstestes beschrieben und zum Nachweis einer cellularen Immunreaktion gegenuber Leberantigenen bei chronisch-entzundlichen Lebererkrankungen eingesetzt. Mit dieser Technik wurde bei 85% der Patienten mit hypergammaglobulinamischer Verlaufsform einer chronisch-aktiven Hepatitis und 42% der Patienten mit aktiv fortschreitenden kryptogenen Lebercirrhosen eine Migrationshemmung nachgewiesen. Lebergesunde Kontrollen zeigten keine, Patienten mit dem Zustand nach Hepatitis und chronisch-persistierender Hepatitis selten eine Leukocytenmigrationsinhibition gegenuber leberspezifischen Antigenen. 17% der Patienten mit chronisch-aktiver H…
Bidding for Research Funds. Inter-Fields Differences and Predictors of the Evaluation Scores: Insights from a Romanian National Competition for Postd…
2021
This study sought to address an important gap in the existent knowledge about the development of the Romanian research system by looking at a very specific population of young scholars who participated in the national competition for postdoctoral grants (2016) which included over 900 participants. The paper is structured by two main research objectives. Firstly, the analysis if focused on differences between scientific fields by looking at research entities which host young scholars’ grant proposals, gender balance, young scholars’ academic performance measured through a standardized indicator (Google Scholar H index), share of people trained abroad, and information about the evaluation pro…
