Transcriptomic metaanalyses of autistic brains reveals shared gene expression and biological pathway abnormalities with cancer
2019
Este es el artículo que se ha publicado de forma definitiva en: https://molecularautism.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s13229-019-0262-8 En este artículo también participa Joan Climent, Vera Pancaldi, Lourdes Fañanás, Celso Arango, Mara Parellada, Anaïs Baudot, Daniel Vogt, John L. Rubenstein, Alfonso Valencia y Rafael Tabarés-Seisdedos. Background: Epidemiological and clinical evidence points to cancer as a comorbidity in people with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). A significant overlap of genes and biological processes between both diseases has also been reported. Methods: Here, for the first time, we compared the gene expression profiles of ASD frontal cortex tissues and 22 cancer t…
Teaching competence strategies to students through teamwork
2016
El Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior plantea desarrollar y evaluar métodos de aprendizaje centrados en la adquisición de competencias, que permitirán al alumno enfrentarse a distintos tipos de situaciones, tanto en contextos académicos como profesionales. Este nuevo planteamiento, implica el uso de diferentes metodologías didácticas, entre las que se encuentra el trabajo en grupo. Sin embargo, para el profesor universitario es un desafío evaluar los resultados del aprendizaje en grupo y no siempre se muestra como una tarea sencilla. En el presente trabajo se realiza una aproximación a los diferentes métodos de evaluación de la competencia realizar trabajos en grupo, mediante una revisió…

Corporate governance and determinants that explain CEO compensation in Indonesia
2011
Masteroppgave i økonomi og administrasjon - Universitetet i Agder 2011 This thesis examines determinants that can help explain CEO remuneration in an Asian emerging market, focusing on Indonesia. Our sample consists of 46 Indonesian stock listed companies, and we use data from recently expanded rules on disclosure to analyze the level and structure of compensation for the CEO - domestically known as the president director. Looking at corporate governance arrangements, firm performance, and CEO characteristics, our empirical evidence reveals a significant positive relationship between firm size and CEO pay. No further significant relationships are found between CEO compensation and our remai…
Determinants of CEO compensation in Pakistan from 2007 to 2009
2010
Masteroppgave i økonomi og administrasjon - Universitetet i Agder 2010 Most studies of the determinants of executive compensation are based on the experience of developed countries. This paper examines the relationship between firm size, firm performance and board composition on CEO compensation, in the context of an emerging and developing economy of Pakistan. Data for 83 listed firms from Lahore stock exchange, Pakistan has been used for 2007 to 2009. The findings show that firm size is one of the major determining factors of CEO compensation rather than performance. A family recruited CEO has a negative and significant effect upon the CEO compensation. In this study we also look at a num…
New physics in $B$ meson mixing: future sensitivity and limitations
2020
The mixing of neutral mesons is sensitive to some of the highest scales probed in laboratory experiments. In light of the planned LHCb Upgrade II, a possible upgrade of Belle II, and the broad interest in flavor physics in the tera-Z phase of the proposed FCC-ee program, we study constraints on new physics contributions to Bd and Bs mixings which can be obtained in these benchmark scenarios. We explore the limitations of this program, and identify the measurement of |Vcb| as one of the key ingredients in which progress beyond current expectations is necessary to maximize future sensitivity. We speculate on possible solutions to this bottleneck. Given the current tension with the standard mo…
Functionnal aspects of biodiversity towards biocontrol in agricultural soils

Body Mass index, family lifestyle, physical activity and eating behaviour on a sample of primary school students in a small town of western Sicily.
2012
<p><strong>Background</strong>: Obesity is actually a discernible issue in prosperous western society and is dramatically increasing in children and adolescents. Many studies indicate that obesity in childhood may become chronic disease in adulthood and, particularly, those who are severely overweight have an increased risk of death by cardiovascular disease. Understanding the determinants of life style and behavior in a person’s youth and making attempts to change children’s habits is considered a key strategy in the primary prevention of obesity. This study aims to find a correlation between Body Mass Index, (BMI), physical activity and eating behavior and to identify, e…
Body mass index and factors associated with overweight and obesity: a crosssectional in a small city of Western Sicily (Italy)
2012
<p><strong>Background</strong>: although the epidemiological features of overweight and obesity have been well described, especially for very populous urban areas, less evidences are available for small urban areas. The aim of the present work was to assess BMI and factors associated with overweight and obesity in a representative sample of general population of a small city of Western Sicily (Italy).</p><p><strong>Methods</strong>: four hundred and eleven randomly selected adult subjects from general population living in a small Sicilian city with 7 144 inhabitants were interviewed by a standardized questionnaire investigating life-styles, eating h…
