Ageing and COPD affect different domains of nutritional status: the ECCE study
2010
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and ageing may contribute to malnutrition. We aimed to explore whether COPD and ageing determine malnutrition in different manners. 460 stable COPD outpatients (376 males and 84 females) from the Extrapulmonary Consequences of COPD in the Elderly (ECCE) study database were investigated (age 75.0±5.9 yrs; forced expiratory volume in 1 s 54.7±18.3% predicted). Nutritional status was evaluated using the Mini Nutritional Assessment® (MNA) questionnaire. From the MNA, three scores exploring the domains of the nutritional status were calculated: body composition, energy intake and body functionality scores.

Risk and Complication Management in Esophageal Cancer Surgery: A Review of the Literature
2015
Esophagectomy for cancer is a highly complex and demanding two-cavity procedure associated with a considerable morbidity and mortality. There are several controversies with regard to the optimal risk and complication management. Strategies include patient selection, optimization of malnutrition, hospital and surgeon volume, intraoperative anesthesiological and surgical measures, and postoperative management of complications. In this article, we review the literature on these aspects that have an impact on outcomes after esophagectomy.

From deception to frankness: Benefits of ontogenetic shift in the anti-predator strategy of alder moth Acronicta alni larvae
2014
Abstract Animals can avoid prédation by masquerading as objects that are not food to their predators. Alder moth Acronicta alni larvae go through an impressive ontogenetic change from masquerade to highly conspicuous appearance: early larval stages resemble bird droppings but in the last instar the larval coloration changes into striking yellow-and-black stripes. We hypothesized that such a change may be driven by differential prédation favoring dissimilar anti-predator strategies in different life stages. We show with a series of laboratory assays that larvae are distasteful to birds regardless of their developmental stage, suggesting that ontogenetic color change is not driven by the diff…
Aktywność biologiczna a struktura elektronowa pochodnych 1,3,4- tiadiazoli
2017
Przedmiotem badania była próba znalezienia korelacji między aktywnością biologiczną i właściwościami elektronowymi układów opartych na pochodnych tiadiazolu. Aktywność biologiczna związku chemicznego związana jest z jego cechami fizykochemicznymi. Jednym z najbardziej użytecznych parametrów w przewidywaniu aktywności biologicznej danej substancji, a także prognozowaniu o jej aktywności toksycznej jest lipofilowość, która stanowi ważny dyskryptor wykorzystywany w projektowaniu nowych leków oraz w ocenie aktywności substancji leczniczych już istniejących na rynku farmaceutycznym.Poszukiwanie korelacji pomiędzy strukturą chemiczną związku i właściwościami a aktywnością biologiczną stanowi prze…
GENDER VIOLENCE IN THE POST-PATRIARCHALIZATION OF GLOBAL AGE: A COMPARATIVE PERSPECTIVE OF ITALY AND SERBIA
2014
RODNO NASILJE U POST-PATRIJARHALNOM GLOBALNOM DOBU: KOMPARATIVNA PERSPEKTIVA ITALIJE I SRBIJE Cilj ovog rada je da ponudi razumevanje interpretativnog dualizma između italijanskog i srpskog društva u pogledu rodnog nasilja nad ženama. U radu se, u komparativnom pristupu, ukazuje na elemente kontinuiranog opadanja muške dominacije u Italiji i opadanja patrijarhalne moći u Srbiji, kao rezultate varijeteta istorijskih i socijalnih uzroka. Emancipacija žena predstavlja snagu koja se suprotstavlja nasilju od partnera u nekim porodičnim kontekstima. Dok globalizacija i nezaposlenost čine deprivaciju muškaraca u u pogledu tradicionalne moći, sa druge strane, "muškarac u padu" čini "identitetski re…

Early screening of new accumulating versus non-accumulating tree species for the phytomanagement of marginal lands
2019
International audience; The use of fast-growing trees producing a high quantity of biomass can bring significant practical and economic benefits to the reclamation of marginal lands. The present study aims to identify new shrub/tree species to offer a wider range of shrubs/trees useful for phytomanagement practices. We implemented three experimental sites in France of 1 ha each (Thann, Carrières-sous-Poissy and Leforest) contaminated by different potentially toxic elements (PTE) with a total of 38 different tree species. After two years of growth, the element concentrations in stem and leaf biomasses, tree survival rate and growth of plants were assessed. Although the three sites had elevat…
