Recent Advances in Derivation of Functional Hepatocytes from Placental Stem Cells
2013
Abstract: End-stage liver diseases are one of the leading causes of death in the world. Often orthotopic liver transplantation represents the final therapeutic choice. The limits of this approach are the scarcity of donor livers available, and the many side effects related to the administration of immune suppressants to the patients. Cellular therapy for liver diseases is increasingly being viewed as a promising strategy to provide hepatocytes to replenish the parenchymal cells of the organ. This technique suffers of some important limitations, such as the difficulty in isolating sufficient cell numbers (e.g. when adult or foetal hepatocytes are used for transplantation), the limited viabil…

Dzieje ludności żydowskiej na terenach latyfundium Zamoyskich za czasów linii kanclerskiej (Jan „Sariusz”, Tomasz, Jan „Sobiepan” Zamoyscy). Przyczyn…
2014
Celem artykułu jest omówienie dziejów ludności żydowskiej na terenach należących do rodziny Zamoyskich w okresie od drugiej połowy XVI do drugiej połowy XVII wieku, w kresie rządów założyciela ordynacji Jana „Sariusza” Zamoyskiego (1542 – 1605), jego syna Tomasza Zamoyskiego (1594 – 1638) oraz wnuka Jana „Sobiepana” Zamoyskiego (1627 – 1665), ostatniego ordynata z tzw. linii starszej, zwanej też „kanclerską”. Zostały w nim omówione warunki polityczne, jakie towarzyszyły osiedlaniu się Żydów w latyfundium Zamoyskich (w szczególności w większych ośrodkach miejskich: Zamościu, Szczebrzeszynie, Tomaszowie, Kraśniku oraz Tarnogrodzie) oraz aspekty społeczne, kulturowe i gospodarcze ich funkcjono…
Promoting self-employment: Does it create more employment and business activity?
2021
International audience; We assess the economic impact of reforms promoting self-employment in the three countries that have implemented such reforms since the early 2000s: the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and France. To that end, we use an unbalanced cross country-industry dataset of 4,226 observations, including 12 OECD countries and 20 market industries, over the 1995-2016 period. We first observe, using country-level data, that the share of self-employed workers in total employment is quite stable or declines over the period in all countries in our dataset, except in the three countries where large reforms promoting self-employment have been implemented, and only after these reforms. …
El auto sacramental y la alegorización de la historia: "El socorro de Cádiz" de Juan Pérez de Montalbán
2012
Este trabajo estudia la relación excepcional entre acontecimientos históricos y género sacramental, a partir de un auto que se dio por perdido durante bastantes años. Se trata de El socorro de Cádiz de Juan Pérez de Montalbán en el que se alegoriza la defensa de Cádiz contra los ingleses en 1625. This paper analyzes the exceptional relationship between historical events and the sacramental genre, based on an «auto» that was considered lost during many years. This «auto» is El socorro de Cádiz by Juan Pérez de Montalbán, in which the playwright allegorizes the defense of Cádiz against the English in 1625.
Approaching the precursor nuclei of the third r-process peak with RIBs
2013
The rapid neutron nucleosynthesis process involves an enormous amount of very exotic neutron-rich nuclei, which represent a theoretical and experimental challenge. Two of the main decay properties that affect the final abundance distribution the most are half-lives and neutron branching ratios. Using fragmentation of a primary $^{238}$U beam at GSI we were able to measure such properties for several neutron-rich nuclei from $^{208}$Hg to $^{218}$Pb. This contribution provides a short update on the status of the data analysis of this experiment, together with a compilation of the latest results published in this mass region, both experimental and theoretical. The impact of the uncertainties …
In search of a theoretical framework of factors influencing work and life balance
2021
Work and life balance (WLB) has gained noticeable attention amid the pandemic. Even before the outbreak of COVID-19, the increasing pace of life encouraged the investigation of individual and organisational aspects of WLB. Physically and mentally healthy people help society develop and grow. Health issues caused by work and life imbalance lead to dissatisfaction with both work and life, which, in turn, leads to higher stress and stress-related illnesses, for instance, burnout. From the organisational point of view, WLB is a factor in analysing the efficiency of an enterprise. The consequences of a work-life imbalance are intentional or unintentional absence, high employee turnover, low prod…
Hollywood y la Guerra Civil española: análisis de sus tres únicas cintas de ficción coetáneas (1937-1938) = Hollywood and the Spanish Civil War: anal…
2017
<p>El presente artículo propone un análisis comparativo de las tres únicas películas realizadas por Hollywood sobre la Guerra Civil española mientras esta se desarrollaba: <em>The Last Train From Madrid</em> (James Hogan, 1937), <em>Love Under Fire</em> (George Marshall, 1937) y <em>Blockade</em> (William Dieterle, 1938). A la postre, se demostrará que, en contra de lo afirmado por buena parte de la historiografía, las tres –y no únicamente <em>Blockade</em>– efectúan una denuncia de la intervención de las potencias del Eje en la Guerra Civil española.</p><p>The purpose of this article is to provide a comparative analysis of …
La vocalidad del violín en el norte de Italia en torno a 1600
2021
Throughout the present research I intend to demonstrate the powerful link between the vocal practice in accompanied monody and the way Early Italian violin music ought to be interpreted. Due to the scarce amount of articulation and ornamentation in this music, I consider that historical criteria should be found in order to back up the subjective choices in its performance. According to this, I focus on reviewing sources that describe the vocal practice around 1600, but also contemporary sources in which we can find instructions addressed to bow instruments. Besides, a catalogue of articulations and ornamentations present in early editions of printed violin music is attached. Last, I comment…
