Is COVID‐19 infection more severe in kidney transplant recipients?
2021
International audience; There are no studies which have compared the risk of severe Covid-19 and related mortality between transplant recipients and non-transplant patients. We enrolled two groups of patients hospitalized for Covid-19, i.e., kidney transplant recipients from the French Registry of Solid Organ Transplant (n=306) and a single-center cohort of non-transplant patients (n=795). An analysis was performed among subgroups matched for age and risk factors for severe Covid-19 or mortality. Severe Covid-19 was defined as admission (or transfer) to an intensive care unit, need for mechanical ventilation, or death.Transplant recipients were younger and had more comorbidities compared to…
Hyperosmolar therapy for acute brain injury: study protocol for an umbrella review of meta-analyses and an evidence mapping
2020
Introduction Acute brain injury is a challenging public health problem worldwide. Elevated intracranial pressure is a common complication after acute brain injury. Hyperosmolar therapy is one of the main therapeutic strategies for the management of intracranial hypertension. This study protocol outlines an umbrella review of meta-analyses which will investigate the benefits and harms of hyperosmolar therapy routinely used for the management of acute brain injury in the intensive care. Methods and analysis We will search PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews. We will include meta-analyses of primary research studies (eg, randomised controlled trials, observat…
Decomposition Process of Carboxylate MOF HKUST-1 Unveiled at the Atomic Scale Level
2016
HKUST-1 is a metal-organic framework (MOF) which plays a significant role both in applicative and basic fields of research, thanks to its outstanding properties of adsorption and catalysis but also because it is a reference material for the study of many general properties of MOFs. Its metallic group comprises a pair of Cu2+ ions chelated by four carboxylate bridges, forming a structure known as paddle-wheel unit, which is the heart of the material. However, previous studies have well established that the paddle-wheel is incline to hydrolysis. In fact, the prolonged exposure of the material to moisture promotes the hydrolysis of Cu-O bonds in the paddle-wheels, so breaking the crystalline n…
Modelling of proffesional competences in health care units – preliminary assumptions
2023
Purpose: The aim of the article is to present the theoretical assumptions of the model of professional competencies in health care units. It was assumed that competences are a multidimensional concept and require an integrated approach that allows for the construction of a competency model that reflects their real complexity. A list of professional competencies will be presented, which will be subject to empirical verification in the course of future research by the authors in order to identify key competencies. Design/methodology/approach: The proposed lists of professional competencies (six domains) was created and are based on the analysis of healthcare competencies models - the study of…
Modelling of managerial competences in health care units – preliminary assumptions
2022
Purpose: The aim of the article is to present the theoretical assumptions of the model of managerial competences in health care units. It was assumed that competences are a multidimensional concept and require an integrated approach that allows for the construction of a competency model that reflects their real complexity. A list of managerial competencies will be presented, which will be subject to empirical verification in the course of future research by the authors in order to identify key competencies. Design/methodology/approach: The proposed lists of managerial competencies (six domains) were created and are based on the analysis of healthcare competencies models – the study of the l…

Ciò che dicono (e non dicono) le Sezioni Unite sul rapporto tra stalking, omicidio aggravato e lesioni aggravate
2022
Le Sezioni Unite hanno chiarito che il reato di omicidio commesso nei confronti della stessa persona offesa del reato di atti persecutori integra un reato complesso. Il presente contributo esamina le conseguenze che questo principio ha sul tema parallelo del rapporto tra il delitto di atti persecutori e il delitto di lesioni personali aggravate perché commesso dall'autore dello stalking nei confronti della stessa vittima. The United Sections have clarified that the crime of homicide committed against the same offended person as the crime of persecutory acts integrates a complex crime. This article examines the consequences that this principle has on the parallel theme of the relationship be…
Phylogenetic diversity and affiliation of tropical African ectomycorrhizal fungi
2022
Ectomycorrhizal fungi form a mutualistic symbiosis with plant roots, and are key for nutrient cycling in many ecosystems. Here we study the ectomycorrhizal fungal communities in the Oueme Superieur reserve forest in Benin (West Africa). We use phylogenetic methods to test if the species from the study site are closer to other tropical African species than to species from other regions. The Oueme Superieur community was represented by nine Operational Taxonomic Units in Amanitaceae, one in Boletaceae, one in Cantharellaceae, one in Cortinariaceae, two in Inocybaceae, fourteen in Russulaceae and three in Sclerodermataceae. Of these thirty-one Operational Taxonomic Units, twenty had no record …
Nefarmakoloģiskās atsāpināšanas metodes jaundzimušo intensīvās terapijas nodaļā
2018
Bakalaura darba tēma – Nefarmakoloģiskās atsāpināšanas metodes jaundzimušo intensīvās terapijas nodaļā. Šī tēma ir aktuāla, jo ik gadu pasaulē nāk ap 15 miljoniem bērnu , no kuriem vismaz viens no 10 jaundzimušajiem piedzimst pirms laika. Savukārt Latvijā katru gadu pirms laika jeb agrāk par pilnām 37 grūtniecības nedēļām dzimst vairāk nekā 1000 bērni, tie ir aptuveni 6% no kopējā dzimušo skaita. Darba izstrādāšanas mērķis - Noskaidrot un analizēt nefarmakoloģisko atsāpināšanas metožu izmantošanu procedūru sāpju novēršanai jaundzimušajiem intensīvās terapijas nodaļā. Pētniecības uzdevumi ir apkopot un analizēt literatūru par procedūru sāpēm jaundzimušajiem un nefarmakoloģiskām atsāpināšanas…

2018
Wprowadzenie. Transfuzja krwi jest częstym zabiegiem u noworodków. Osoba podejmująca decyzję o jego przeprowadzeniu musi być świadoma, że ratuje on życie i jest obciążony wieloma powikłaniami. Cel pracy. Określenie częstości wykonywania transfuzji uzupełniających u noworodków leczonych na Od-dziale Anestezjologii i Intensywnej Terapii Dzieci i Noworodków (OAITDiN) w Uniwersyteckim Szpitalu Klinicznym w Opolu latach 2012–2016. Ustalenie, czy istnieje istotna zależność między wiekiem noworodka a liczbą transfuzji. Zidentyfikowanie najczęstszych wskazań do przeprowadzenia transfuzji. Materiał i metody. Przeprowadzono analizę retrospektywną dokumentacji medycznej techniką nowoczesną polegającą …
