Sarcopenia and appendicular muscle mass as predictors of impaired fasting glucose/type 2 diabetes in elderly women
2021
Elderly women exhibit a high risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D), but no definitive data exist about the possible role of postmenopausal increases in visceral adiposity, the loss of lean body mass, or decreases in the sum of the lean mass of arms and legs (appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASMM)). This retrospective, longitudinal study investigated whether body composition (bioelectrical impedance analysis) predicted the development of impaired fasting glucose (IFG) or T2D in a cohort of 159 elderly women (age: 71 ± 5 years, follow-up: 94 months) from southern Italy (Clinical Nutrition and Geriatric Units of the “Mater Domini” University Hospital in Catanzaro, Calabria region, and the “P. Giacco…

Trattamento riabilitativo nella rottura traumatica del tendine quadricipitale nella malattia di Pompe
2013
La glicogenosi di tipo II o malattia di Pompe è una rara miopatia metabolica a trasmissione A.R., causata da mutazioni nel gene che codifica l'enzima lisosomiale alfa-glucosidasi acida, catalizzatore del processo di degradazione del glicogeno a glucosio. Presso l'U.O.C. di riabilitazione dell'A.O.U.P Paolo Giaccone giungeva nel marzo 2013 il signor B.G, di anni 52 con diagnosi di "postumi di intervento chirurgico di riparazione del tendine quadricipitale destro", per sottoporsi a trattamento riabilitativo in regime di DH; il paziente era affetto a glicogenosi metabolica di tipo II, diagnosticata nel 2007. nel nostro paziente l'esercizio terapeutico mirato al recupero del ROM e del tonotrofi…
The difficulty of applying exclusion criteria in ethical portfolios
2018
A main problem for socially responsible investors is deciding which companies should be included in their investment portfolio. Small investors may decide not to invest in companies they know are not behaving responsibly. Therefore, discredited companies will not be included in their portfolios, as they will understand those companies cannot be defined as ethical. To implement this procedure properly and apply it to big portfolios is a complex exercise which requires big amounts of information and the problems faced by investors applying such exclusion criteria to select their portfolio.
Biomechanical analysis of Ascending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm (ATAA)
2021
According to the reports of the World Health Organisation (WHO), cardiovascular diseases are the number one cause of death worldwide. Specifically, arterial disease and degeneration are the major reasons for cardiovascular death and disability. Because these diseases are dependent on the changes of the mechanical properties of the arterial wall, it is very important to know as much as possible about the structural composition of arteries. The human aorta is the biggest artery in the body and consists of three main parts, ascending aorta, aortic arch and descending aorta. The walls of the arteries consist of three layers, the intima, media and adventitia, where each of the layers has differe…

Marx y Engels y la división sexual del trabajo en la familia: ambigüedades, equívocos y vacíos teóricos
2018
Dada la importante influencia de Marx y Engels en el análisis de la estructura social, no sorprende el notable impacto de su obra en el estudio del papel de la mujer en la familia. Sin embargo, su herencia en este ámbito sociológico ha dado lugar a interpretaciones muy polarizadas. Este artículo quiere aportar algo de luz evidenciando las contradicciones del marxismo al estudiar el papel de la mujer en la familia. Para ello se comparan las contribuciones de Marx y Engels para calibrar posibles diferencias en las posturas de dos autores que en otros ámbitos han presentado un pensamiento muy homogéneo. Los resultados obtenidos permiten afirmar que, a pesar de su innegable influencia en el pen…
Food-Based Dietary Guidelines around the World: A Comparative Analysis to Update AESAN Scientific Committee Dietary Recommendations
2021
Food-Based Dietary Guidelines (FBDG) include dietary recommendations based on food groups according to the general and accepted nutrition principles and current scientific evidence. Adoption of FBDG contributes to the prevention of malnutrition in all its forms, promotes human health, and reduces environmental impact. The present review aims to perform an international comparative analysis of the FBDG adopted in different countries from three different continents (America, Asia, and Europe), with particular reference to the Spanish Food Safety and Nutrition Agency (AESAN, Agencia Española de Seguridad Alimentaria y Nutrición) Scientific Committee dietary recommendations. A total of twelve c…
Reproductive Physiology ofAedes(Aedimorphus)vexans(Diptera: Culicidae) in Relation to Flight Potential
2001
Total protein, lipid, and glycogen of Aedes vexans (Meigen) were related linearly to body size at eclosion. Starvation after emergence led to the determination of minimal irreducible amounts of protein, lipid, and glycogen and the availability of the teneral reserves, whereas access to sucrose revealed the potential for reserve synthesis. Glycogenesis and lipogenesis increased reserves approximately 10-fold the teneral value within 1 and 2 wk after emergence, respectively. Carbohydrate feeding was an essential behavior before blood feeding and oogenesis commenced. Female flight was tested on a flight mill. Maximal flights of 10-17 km in a single night occurred at 2 wk posteclosion and paral…
