Tick Bites - the View from Inside-Out
2009
The tick feeding process in humans and its effects on the host skin have been studied histologically on specimens of tick bites, some of which included the attached parasite, and on ticks extracted from lesions or caught in the wild. The specimens, included in paraffin, were stained with hematoxylin-eosin, orcein–Giemsa for elastic fibers, periodic acid-Schiff for polysaccharides, Weigert method for fibrin, Warthin-Starry stain for spirochetes, and Bodian’s method for nerve fibers. The mouthparts of the attached ticks were embedded in a cement cone, with the chelicerae and the hypostome lining the oral canal, while the basis capituli contained the pharynx with its anti-reflux valves, the hy…
A lethal Tick-Borne Encephalitis (TBE) due to TBE virus in Sicily (Italy): A case of IgG+/IgM-response?
2018
Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is an important viral infection of the central nervous system with high morbidity and mortality. With the increase of tourism TBE is becoming a problem also outside endemic regions. Italy is considered a country with low incidence of TBE and geographically restricted to the central and north eastern part of the country. In the south of Italy there is no evidence of disease presence, but neither is there much evidence of its absence. We report our experience about a lethal case of meningoencephalitis with a single-phase clinical course of the disease likely due to TBEV infection in a 13-year-old man. This is the first report of an autochthonous case of TBE in Si…
E-Government in Marketing a Country: A Strategy for Reducing Transaction Cost of Doing Business in Tanzania
2011
Published version of an article in International Journal of Marketing Studies, 3(4), 2-16. Also available from the publisher at http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ijms.v3n4p2 There are limited studies examining the role of Investment Promotion Agencies (IPA’s) and their respective marketing techniques used in attracting Foreign Direct Investment (FDI). Using an exploratory case study approach, this article addresses this research gap by exploring the role of e-government as a promotion technique in eliminating barriers to FDI inflows in Tanzania; particularly barriers related to information accessibility and bureaucratic procedures facing foreign investors in acquiring relevant licenses and business…

New Literacy for Reading Using ICT
2014
This article will analyse the key strategies in the relationship between reading and writing in the area of ICT and the resulting importance in supporting literacy in this area so that the education system as a whole (primary and secondary schools and universities) can be guided to make full use of the opportunities ICT can provide. ICTs are able to help improve overall comprehension, evaluate general perspectives and raise awareness of the value of cooperation and, as a result, the essential quality of individuals and their contributions. These contributions are far-reaching and strategic. The benefits of applying ICT in reading and writing are also felt in oral expression and can result i…
Zemesgrāmatu ieraksta publiskās ticamības principa piemērošanas trūkumi Latvijā
2022
Zemesgrāmatu ieraksta publiskās ticamības princips ir nozīmīgs instruments, kas nodrošina paļāvību personām, ka zemesgrāmatās veiktie ieraksti atbilst patiesajam tiesiskajam stāvoklim. Kā viens no šī principa pamatmērķiem ir labticīgā nekustamā īpašuma ieguvēja aizsardzība. Tomēr pašlaik spēkā esošais tiesiskais regulējums Latvijā neparedz šī principa efektīvu funkcionēšanu praksē. Bakalaura darba ietvaros tiek izvērtēti problemātiskie tiesiskie aspekti Latvijā, kas neļauj zemesgrāmatu ieraksta publiskās ticamības principam efektīvi funkcionēt, lai nodrošinātu civiltiesiskās aprites stabilitāti nekustamo īpašumu atsavināšanas darījumu jomā. Darbā arī tiek izvērtēts Vācijas tiesiskais regulē…
Tiesas kritēriji, nosakot prevalējošo tiesību principu, kauzalitātes un abstrakcijas principu kolīzijas gadījumā.
2016
Īpašuma iegūšana ar nodošanu sastāv no diviem posmiem: tiesiskā darījuma, kurā tiek atspoguļota kontrahentu griba nodot īpašuma tiesības no vienas puses un saņemt tās, no otras puses, un paša īpašuma nodošanas. Strīdi par to vai tiesiskā darījuma trūkumi ietekmē īpašuma tiesību pāreju vai arī īpašuma tiesību nodošana notiek arī tad, ja šis darījums ir absolūti spēkā neesošs, praksē var izraisīt situāciju, kurā tiesa strīda gadījumā nepareizi noregulē tiesiskās attiecības starp strīdā iesaistītajām pusēm. Darbā noskaidrots, ka likuma normas un arī tiesa nav noteikusi konkrētus kritērijus, lai noteiktu, kurš no darbā apskatītajiem principiem prevalē to kolīzijas gadījumā.
Brecha digital y comunicación entre escuela y familia.
2018
En este trabajo pretendemos mostrar cómo la brecha digital, en sus diferentes significados/realidades, constituye un factor de exclusión social en tanto que dificulta el acceso a la cultura y producción de conocimiento actual. Aquí abordamos la brecha digital desde dos perspectivas distintas: desde las diferencias en el acceso a los medios tecnológicos y desde una perspectiva generacional y de uso. Los estudiantes, generalmente nativos digitales, han desarrollado unas habilidades y competencias frente a las tecnologías que en la mayoría de los casos superan a la de las familias, haciendo que el uso tecnológico y la apropiación que se hace del dispositivo por parte de cada uno sea diferente.…
Les xarxes socials com a recurs educatiu
2012
L’ús de les xarxes socials amb finalitats educatives afavoreix l’aprenentatge col·laboratiu i l’intercanvi d’informació. Aquest article presenta una experiència de l’ús de les xarxes socials com a recurs educatiu, concretament de la plataforma Ning, amb la finalitat d’animar el professorat perquè les utilitze en la seua pràctica docent. La xarxa Ning té l’avantatge de disposar d’un entorn privat per als membres del grup que permet personalitzar el treball del curs dins d’una comunitat virtual particular. A més, potencia la interacció comunicativa i possibilita incloure-hi diferents materials multimèdia i recursos produïts tant pel professorat com per l’alumnat. The use of social networks fo…
Trabajo y TIC en los mayores de 45 años. Un análisis de la introducción al ciberespacio desde la esfera laboral
2018
The inequality in access to cyberspace due to age at the beginning of the twenty-first century was followed by an economic crisis that intensified many socio-labor dynamics. Through a contextualization with INE data and a qualitative sample, the following work tries to capture the attitudes about ICT related to their previous labor trajectories on those over 45 years of age; and, on the other hand, its introduction to cyberspace from work as a conditioner in the perception of crisis, the maintenance of employment or their way out to retirement.
