Masteroppgave ledelse ORG917 - Universitetet i Agder 2017 Dropout is considered a major social problem in Norway, and approximately 3 out of 10 students do not finish upper secondary school within 5 years. The consequences of dropout are negative for both individuals and society. One of the consequences is that young adults without secondary education may be experiencing difficulties getting in to a labour market that increasingly requires highly-skilled labor. There are many reasons why students drop out of school, and there are no easy solutions. Therefore, a number of studies have been exploring possible causes for drop out in the recent years. Existing research has primarily been aimed …

Contributo allo studio dell'eccezione nel processo civile. 1) Concetti e principi generali

2013

La storia della teoria dell’eccezione, scrive Schwalbach, mostra una serie ininterrotta di malintesi. Ed in effetti l’istituto, dalla sua lontana origine nel processo formulare romano ad oggi, è stato caratterizzato da complesse e spesso contraddittorie evoluzioni e trasformazioni, parallelamente al mutare del contesto storico-sociale ed allo sviluppo della scienza giuridica. Tuttavia, scomparso il pretore e il mondo romano, scomparsa la visione medievale dell’impero e della compilazione giustinianea, l’istituto è, tuttavia, sopravvissuto legando indissolubilmente il suo significato alla teoria dell’azione. Definire l’eccezione vuol dire definire, innanzitutto, definire l’azione, osserva Co…

In this context, efforts to find and promote holiday forms that have a low environmentalimpact, forms known as ecotourism, ecological tourism, tourism in protected areas, green tourism. Tourism industry stakeholders have become increasingly sensitive to environmental issues and few are those who now believe commercial activities have nothing to do with the development of ecological actions. Also many tour operators believe that the natural resources have economic value only if they are reasonably valued.

The role of the European Society of Human Genetics in delivering genomic education

2021

The European Society of Human Genetics (ESHG) was founded in 1967 as a professional organisation for members working in genetics in clinical practice, research and education. The Society seeks the integration of scientific research and its implementation into clinical practice and the education of specialists and the public in all areas of medical and human genetics. The Society works to do this through many approaches, including educational sessions at the annual conference; training courses in general and specialist areas of genetics; an online resource of educational materials (EuroGEMS); and a mentorship scheme. The ESHG Education Committee is implementing new approaches to expand the r…

Comparing SARS-CoV-2 case rates between pupils, teachers and the general population: results from Germany

2021

Given the inconsistent state of research regarding the role of pupils and teachers during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in Germany, statewide and nationwide data of infection case rates were analyzed to contribute to the discourse. Infection data from official sources ranging from mid to late 2020 were collected, prepared and analyzed to answer the question if pupils, teachers and general population differ in infection case rates or not. Statewide and nationwide data showed that pupils and teachers infection case rates exceeded those of the general population. However, present data do not necessarily indicate that SARS-CoV-2 cases of pupils and teachers infections took place at schools. Actually,…

Prevalence of lumbosacral radiculopathy in two Sicilian municipalities

2009

Objectives - As part of a door-to-door survey of neurologic diseases, we investigated the prevalence of lumbosacral radiculopathy (LR) in two Sicilian municipalities (N = 14,540, as of November 1, 1987). Material & methods - During phase 1, we administered a brief screening instrument to subjects in the study population. In phase 2, study neurologists using specified diagnostic criteria investigated those subjects who screened positive. Our case finding was restricted to subjects who manifested symptoms of LR in the six months preceding the prevalence day. Results - We found 143 subjects affected by LR (112 definite, 31 possible) yielding a crude prevalence of 9.8 cases per 1,000 population…

Glucose lowering and anti-atherogenic effects of incretin-based therapies: GLP-1 analogues and DPP-4-inhibitors

2009

Type 2 diabetes is a chronic, progressive disease with a multi-faceted pathophysiology. Beyond the known defects of insulin resistance and beta-cell insufficiency, derangement of incretin hormones normally produced from the gut wall in response to food intake play an important role. In recent years, the 'incretin-based' therapies (IBTs) have been developed to address hyperglycemia through either mimicking the action of the endogenous incretin glucagon-like polypeptide (GLP-1) (GLP-1 receptor agonists) or by inhibiting the activity of the enzyme that degrades GLP-1 (the dipeptyl peptidase-4 inhibitors).We reviewed available evidence on the glucose lowering and anti-atherogenic effects of IBT…
