Analysis of 415 adverse events in dental practice in Spain from 2000 to 2010
2013
Introduction: The effort to increase patient safety has become one of the main focal points of all health care profes - sions, despite the fact that, in the field of dentistry, initiatives have come late and been less ambitious. The main objective of patient safety is to avoid preventable adverse events to the greatest extent possible and to limit the negative consequences of those which are unpreventable. Therefore, it is essential to ascertain what adverse events occur in each dental care activity in order to study them in-depth and propose measures for prevention. Objectives: To ascertain the characteristics of the adverse events which originate from dental care, to classify them in acco…
Antígona, desde el teatro clásico al Derecho Puro. Perspectivas de la enseñanza a través del método del case-study
2019
espanolEl presente trabajo tiene como objetivo tomar la teoria del “case – study” y aplicarla de forma original a la ensenanza del Derecho, a traves del analisis de la obra de teatro clasico Antigona de Sofocles. Es menester desatacar que son cada vez mas frecuentes los factores que nos demuestran que los alumnos encuentran dificultades para superar el abismo que media entre las abstracciones teoricas y las situaciones confusas que se presentan en la realidad. Para cubrir esa carencia formativa el metodo de estudio de casos es un intento de aprendizaje grupal orientado a extraer el maximo beneficio posible de las experiencias y conocimientos de los otros. Asi Antigona como obra de teatro pu…
Improving operational performance in altered gravity
2022
Human motor adaptation is crucial to remain efficient when exposed to unfamiliar environments. In these contexts, the efficient strategies developed by the brain to optimise movement can prove deficient. Dexterous manual movement execution in space therefore require the learning of new coordinated motor actions. Traditionally, adaptation mechanisms are tested in laboratory using robotic devices that disturb the limb specifically involved in the task while the dynamics of the rest of the body remain unchanged. Although participants build a more accurate representation of the task over repetitions, these approaches are limiting as they do not reflect the ecological adjustment to globally modi…
Apple-products phytochemicals and processing: a review.
2009
Epidemiological studies have linked the consumption of apples with reduced risk of some cancers, cardiovascular disease, asthma, and diabetes. Extensive research exists on apples and the health benefits of their beverages and phytochemicals. The purpose of this paper is to review the most recent literature in this area focusing on phytochemicals, phytochemical bioavailability and antioxidant behavior.
Effect of Supplementation with Wheat Bran Aqueous Extracts Obtained by Ultrasound-Assisted Technologies on the Sensory Properties and the Antioxidant…
2015
Phenolic compounds have antioxidant properties and activate endogenous detoxification defense systems able to scavenge the reactive species of oxygen. The external layers of wheat caryopsis, largely constituting by-products of the milling industry such as bran and various middlings, contain relevant amounts of phenolic compounds. The aim of the research has been to evaluate the effect of supplementation with wheat bran aqueous extracts, obtained by ultrasound-assisted technologies, on the sensory properties and antioxidant activity of dry pasta. The HPLC-DAD characterization of the extract evidenced the presence of ferulic and p-coumaric acids. The supplemented pasta showed significantly h…
Growth of nanometric CuGaxOystructures on copper substrates
2005
This paper presents an alternative method based on the metal–organic chemical vapour deposition technique to obtain new nanowire structures. Here, the metal–organic precursor acts as a catalyst and interacts with a metallic substrate to produce 3D structures such as nanowires. In the present case, trimethyl gallium interacts with a copper metallic substrate to build a single-crystalline CuGaxOy wire structure. Electronic microscopy techniques on image or diffraction modes have provided the structural and chemical characterization of the obtained nanowires.
La morale della storia. Osservazioni sul terzo libro di Diodoro
2013
Il profondo lavoro di revisione che, in modo molto incisivo a partire dagli anni ’80 ma con interventi importanti già in anni precedenti, ha modificato il giudizio storiografico su Diodoro consente di gettare una luce nuova su un’opera in realtà centrale per la comprensione di ampi periodi della storia greca e per l’analisi della sua ricezione nel I secolo a.C.
La teoria della subalternità e il caso dei dalit in India
2008
Il subalterno è lo schiavo soddisfatto, il servo che idolatra il padrone, la donna che perpetua il modello del patriarca, il marginale che finisce per odiarsi: colui che ha interiorizzato la visione del mondo del dominante e crede legittimo il suo stato di minorità. Egli, subendo la cosiddetta violenza epistemica, si fa complice di chi rende angusta la sua esistenza: le fonti del suo istinto sono inquinate, alterate le ragioni dei suoi desideri ed egli vuole contro il proprio interesse. I subalterni sono il neo delle rivoluzioni e la falla di ogni progresso: quella porzione di popolazione che ha partecipato ma non ha compreso, le cui condizioni di vita non sono cambiate, subordinati prima a…
Some results concerning simple locally finite groups of 1-type
2005
AbstractIn this paper several aspects of infinite simple locally finite groups of 1-type are considered. In the first part, the classes of diagonal limits of finite alternating groups, of diagonal limits of finite direct products of alternating groups, and of absolutely simple groups of 1-type are distinguished from each other. In the second part, inductive systems of representations over fields of characteristic zero (which are known to correspond to ideals in the group algebra) are studied in general for groups of 1-type. The roles of primitive respectively imprimitive representations in inductive systems are investigated. Moreover it is shown that in any proper inductive system the depth…
Symmetric units and group identities
1998
In this paper we study rings R with an involution whose symmetric units satisfy a group identity. An important example is given by FG, the group algebra of a group G over a field F; in fact FG has a natural involution induced by setting g?g −1 for all group elements g∈G. In case of group algebras if F is infinite, charF≠ 2 and G is a torsion group we give a characterization by proving the following: the symmetric units satisfy a group identity if and only if either the group of units satisfies a group identity (and a characterization is known in this case) or char F=p >0 and 1) FG satisfies a polynomial identity, 2) the p-elements of G form a (normal) subgroup P of G and G/P is a Hamiltonia…
