2013
International audience; Vinculada ao Programa de Pós-Graduação em Políticas Públicas daUniversidade Estadual do Ceará (UECE), a revista O público e o privadoapresenta seu Dossiê 22, cuja temática é “Políticas públicas, cidadese patrimônio”. Tendo sido organizado no contexto do intercâmbio deproduções acadêmicas entre a UECE, a Université de Bourgogne (UB) erepresentantes de uma rede de pesquisa nacional, cuja reflexão elegeu aarte e a cultura como elementos fundamentais, o Dossiê 22 projeta o perfilde uma revista que se configura como suporte para reflexões que buscamevidenciar ligações entre as particularidades que marcam a empiria locale a apreensão das mais diversas formas assumidas pela…
Benefits of area-wide traffic calming measures: outcomes still to assess
2008
The role of traffic calming schemes in urban network management is mainly to minimize undesirable effect of traffic in residential areas; in this context accident reduction can be a realistic objective. Several studies, indeed, inform us that traffic calming is a major part of the treatments available to reduce road accidents in urban areas. Paradoxically the increase of the accident rate per kilometre travelled has been observed in the urban context as result of the wellknown accident migration phenomenon. In connection to these considerations, the effectiveness of traffic calming measures on road safety is discussed in this paper. Then, after a synthetic exposition of the conceptual formu…
Basic Empathy Scale: A Systematic Review and Reliability Generalization Meta-Analysis
2022
The Basic Empathy Scale (BES) has been internationally used to measure empathy. A systematic review including 74 articles that implement the instrument since its development in 2006 was carried out. Moreover, an evidence validity analysis and a reliability generalization meta-analysis were performed to examine if the scale presented the appropriate values to justify its application. Results from the systematic review showed that the use of the BES is increasing, although the research areas in which it is being implemented are currently being broadened. The validity analyses indicated that both the type of factor analysis and reliability are reported in validation studies much more than the …
Distribution patterns of phytoplankton functional groups in connected/isolated reservoirs in an urban drinking water system
2015
Eighteen reservoirs belonging to an urban drinking water system (Zhuhai city, South China) were investigated in the dry and flood seasons of 2013 to evaluate how hydrological connectivity may affect the specie richness and functional composition of phytoplankton. Eleven among the studied water bodies are connected through pipelines and seven are isolated. Twenty one phytoplankton functional groups were identified in the studied reservoirs. Cluster analysis showed that phytoplankton similarity is higher among connected reservoirs than among isolated ones. The average α-diversity is high in the connected reservoirs, but the average β-diversity is much higher in the isolated reservoirs. The hi…
The Romanian Academic Novel and Film through the Postcommunism/Postcolonialism Lens
2019
The last two decades have witnessed an intensified academic interest in a potential rapprochement between Postcolonial Studies and Postcommunist Studies, the former a firmly established discipline in global academia, while the existence of the latter as a discipline in its own right is still debatable. As the possibility of this alliance is – as was to be expected – both contested and supported by various scholars, this article attempts to investigate this issue as illustrated by the postcommunist Romanian academic novel. Aware as it is of contemporary intellectual debates, the genre of the academic (or campus) novel seems particularly suitable for shedding light on the matter: academic fic…
Metas evolutivas y representaciones del futuro en personas mayores sanas y con enfermedades crónicas
2012
Los seres humanos somos organismos intencionales, orientados hacia metas, perfilados hacia el futuro, poseemos ilusiones, expectativas, esperanzas, temores o amenazas que orientan nuestras acciones, dan significado e influyen la vida, para que seamos, hasta cierto punto, arquitectos del propio desarrollo. Las metas, su mantenimiento y cambio en diferentes situaciones, son un medio de adaptación fundamental a las diferentes circunstancias y contextos que nos toca vivir. Esa estructura de metas va ajustándose, para aprovechar las oportunidades que están a nuestro alcance o mitigar el impacto de los obstáculos y adversidades. El envejecimiento, como proceso generalmente asociado a una mayor pr…
Unveiling Neuromarketing and Its Research Methodology
2022
Neuromarketing is the union of cognitive psychology, which studies mental processes, neurology and neurophysiology, which study the functioning and responses of the brain and body physiology to external stimuli, and marketing, which studies valuable exchanges, to explain marketing effects on customers’ and consumers’ behaviours and on buying and decision processes. It includes a set of research techniques that, by observing and evaluating how the brain and other body parts respond, avoids possible biases and provides truthful and objective information on consumer subconscious. The term “consumer neuroscience” covers academic approaches using techniques such as fMRI, Eye Tracking, or EED. Th…
Ārpusšūnu cirkulējošo nukleīnskābju izpēte hipofīzes adenomas pacientos
2019
Līdz šim literatūrā nav ziņojumu par ccfDNA un cirkulējošo miRNS izpēti HA pacientu plazmā. Darbā tika novērtēta iespējamība detektēt HA izcelsmes ccfDNA plazmā, veicot mērķētu NGS pozīcijās, kuras saturēja HA somatiskās mutācijas, un veikts pētījums par miRNS sastāva izmaiņu detektēšanu plazmā 24 stundas pēc HA rezekcijas. HA eksomos atklātās somatiskās mutācijas tikai detektētas septiņās no 16 pārbaudītajām pozīcijām ccfDNA amplikonos. Divās ccfDNA pozīcijās mutantā alēle bija vairāk nekā 2% no kopējā nolasījumu skaita, kas varētu liecināt par šo ccfDNA izcelsmi no HA. Piecās pozīcijās no diviem HA pacientiem mutantās alēles īpatsvars ccfDNA bija ap 50%, kaut gan šīs mutācijas netika kons…
miRNAs in the metaplastic transformation of the esophagus: something in the way toward carcinogenesis.
Background: Barrett's esophagus (BE) is a precancerous lesion that predisposes to development of esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) and it is associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease. Genetic changes involved in the metaplastic progression from squamous esophageal mucosa toward Barrett’s metaplasia and adenocarcinoma are almost unknown and there is an increasing interest in the developing of more objective biomarkers that can improve risk prediction. Several evidences suggest that some miRNAs are differentially expressed in the BE and EAC. Among them, miR-143, miR-145, miR-194, miR-203, miR-205, miR-215 appear to have a key role in the metaplasia and in neoplastic progression. Aim: The …
