Heavy Higgs of the Twin Higgs models
2018
Twin Higgs models are the prime illustration of neutral naturalness, where the new particles of the twin sector, gauge singlets of the Standard Model (SM), ameliorate the little hierarchy problem. In this work, we analyse phenomenological implications of the heavy Higgs of the Mirror Twin Higgs and Fraternal Twin Higgs models, when electroweak symmetry breaking is linearly realized. The most general structure of twin Higgs symmetry breaking, including explicit soft and hard breaking terms in the scalar potential, is employed. The direct and indirect searches at the LHC are used to probe the parameter space of Twin Higgs models through mixing of the heavy Higgs with the SM Higgs and decays o…
Occurrence and exposure assessment of mycotoxins in ready-to-eat tree nut products through ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled with …
2020
Tree nuts have become popular snacks due to their attributed benefits in the health state. Nevertheless, their susceptibility to fungal contamination lead to the occurrence of potentially dangerous mycotoxins. Hence, the aim of this work was to evaluate the presence of mycotoxins in ready-to-eat almonds, walnuts, and pistachios from Italian markets. The most relevant mycotoxin found in almonds was α-zearalanol in 18% of samples (n = 17) ranging from 3.70 to 4.54 µg/kg. Walnut samples showed frequent contamination with alternariol, present in 53% of samples (n = 22) at levels from 0.29 to 1.65 µg/kg. Pistachios (n = 15) were the most contaminated commodity, with β-zear…
Kościół dla wybranych? O specyfice indyjskich chrześcijan knānāya
2015
Nazwą knānāya (także „południowcy”) określa się jedno z ramion indyjskiego chrześcijaństwa, którego członkowie doszukują się swojej genezy w starożytnej emigracji perskich chrześcijan, przybyłych do Indii pod przewodnictwem kupca Tomasza z Kany. Charakterystyczną cechą tej grupy jest silne przywiązanie do tradycji i bezwarunkowa ochrona tożsamości łączącej współczesnych „południowców” z ich przodkami. Sam fakt głębokiego przywiązania do tradycji i w konsekwencji jej silna ochrona nie powinien dziwić, wszak jest to jedno z podstawowych praw każdej wspólnoty i każdego człowieka. Jednakże knanaici, chcąc zachować „czystość krwi”, zupełnie nie dopuszczają do siebie niczego i nikogo z zewnątrz. …

Early decision of gastrostomy tube insertion in children with severe developmental disability: a current dilemma
2011
Background: Healthcare professionals advise earlier gastrostomy tube (GT) placement in children with severe developmental disabilities, marked feeding disorders and risk of malnutrition. However, a delay in acceptance of the procedure by parents/guardians is the main issue of concern. The present study aimed to investigate: (i) parental satisfaction with GT feeding and whether parents/carers would have accepted earlier GT placement and (ii) subsequent nutritional outcome. Methods: Twenty-six disabled children with GT feeding were recruited. A structured questionnaire by telephone was held to record parental perceptions of GT (mainly satisfaction with the procedure and patient management).…
Disorders of malnutrition among the Saharawi children
2011
It is first article that reviews the literature on the problem of disorders of malnutrition among Saharawi children. Most of the studies reveal problems mainly of celiac disease, goiter, geophagia, undernutrition, wasting, stunting, overweight, scurvy, rickets and iron-deficiency anaemia.
Presbyphagia and dysphagia in old age
2020
Although presbyphagia is a clinically relevant problem among elderly population, possibly leading to dysphagia in old age, it remains a still underestimated health condition. The present review analyzes swallowing related anatomical and functional changes during aging, both in healthy people and in those affected by dysphagia. First of all, dysphagia in old people must not be confused with presbyphagia. To distinguish these two different conditions, a correct definition of both should be considered. Subsequently, a comprehensive evaluation including instrumental analysis should be carried out. The aim of this narrative review is to analyze the current knowledge of this clinical condition an…
770 Risk Factors Associated with Anemia and Nutritional Status in Infants
2012
Background Growth assessment is an integral part of infants health. An understanding of anemia risk factors is essential to identify the groups that are more vulnerable. The Aim of the study was to identify the risk factors for malnutrition in the vulnerable age group of 6 to 12 months and to evaluate possible related risk factors with anemia. Methods The cross-sectional study which evaluated 206 infants aged between 6–12 months who attended the Pediatric Clinic during the years 2010–2011 for inadequate growth. Mothers were interviewed to collect informations regarding socioeconomic status and nutrition practices. Nutritional status was evaluated by anthropometric measurements using growth …
Religious Organizations and Local Self-government Units as Entities Cooperating in The Enforcement of Criminal Judgements
2019
Związki wyznaniowe oraz jednostki samorządu terytorialnego to podmioty współdziałające w wykonywaniu kar, środków karnych, kompensacyjnych, zabezpieczających, zapobiegawczych oraz przepadku. Można je również traktować w kategoriach organów społecznej kontroli nad wykonywaniem tych orzeczeń. Współdziałanie takich podmiotów uzyskało rangę dyrektywy ustawowej i służyć ma readaptacji społecznej skazanych i zapobieganiu przestępczości. W przypadku przedstawicieli związków wyznaniowych współdziałanie posiada także charakter wychowawczy i poprawczy. Religious organizations and local self-government units are entities cooperating in the implementation of penalties, penal, compensatory, protective a…
