Hypovitaminosis D in Young Basketball Players: Association with Jumping and Hopping Performance Considering Gender
2021
This study aimed to verify whether a group of young well-trained basketball players presented deficiencies in vitamin D concentration, and to analyze whether there was an association between vitamin D concentration and jumping and hopping performance. Gender differences were considered. Twenty-seven players from an international high-level basketball club (14 female, 16.00 ± 0.55 years

Utilisation de systèmes à base de folksonomies dans un processus de veille : propositions pour l'organisation et l'exploitation des informations coll…
2009
L'utilisation de folksonomies dans le cadre d'un processus de veille est un phénomène qui peu à peu est intégré aux pratiques de la veille sur l'Internet. Les folksonomies lorsqu'elles sont considérées comme sources d'information présentent un grand intérêt dans la mesure où elles permettent d'identifier et de surveiller l'émergence de nouveaux concepts ainsi que leurs représentations. Leur dimension collaborative et sociale facilite l'identification de cibles et d'experts. La diversité des ressources décrites au moyen de folksonomies permet d'élargir le champ des recherches d'information à des domaines parfois mal couverts par les outils plus traditionnels que sont les moteurs de recherche…
Apports des folksonomies dans le cadre d'un processus de veille : vers la prise en compte des spécificités informationnelles
2009
L'utilisation de folksonomies dans le cadre d'un processus de veille est un phénomène qui peu à peu est intégré aux pratiques de la veille sur l'Internet. Les folksonomies lorsqu'elles sont considérées comme sources d'information présentent de nombreux attraits. Leur dimension collaborative et sociale facilite l'identification de cibles et d'experts. La diversité des ressources décrites permet d'élargir le champ des recherches d'information à des domaines parfois mal couverts par d'autres outils. Cependant les informations recueillies doivent être analysées, traitées, organisées et stockées de façon spécifique. Nos propositions concernent particulièrement les aspects de d'organisation et de…
Structural behaviour differences in low methoxy pectin solutions in the presence of divalent cations (Ca 2+ and Zn 2+ ): a process driven by the bind…
2014
International audience; In this paper, we compare the interactions between low methoxy pectin (LMP) and either Ca2+ or Zn2+ in semi-dilute solutions. Intrinsic viscosity and turbidity measurements reveal that pectin-calcium solutions are more viscous, but yet less turbid, than pectin-zinc ones. To get a molecular understanding on the origin of this rather unexpected behavior, we further performed isothermal titration calorimetry, small angle neutron scattering experiments, as well as molecular dynamics simulations. Our results suggest that calcium cations induce the formation of a more homogeneous network of pectin than zinc cations do. The molecular dynamics simulations indicate that this …
Veronico beccabungae-callitrichetum stagnalis (Oberd. 1957) Müller 1962, a plant association new to Poland - Quality of habitat
2011
The paper presents a community of water plants that is new to Poland, <em>Veronico beccabungae-Callitrichetum</em> stagnalis (Oberd. 1957) Müller 1962. This community belongs to the class <em>Potametea</em>. It was discovered in the village of Odrowąż near the town of Krapkowice in Silesia (SW Poland). <em>Veronico beccabungae-Callitrichetum stagnalis</em> in Poland occurs within an irregularly shaped shallow underwater spring, located in the distal part of the Oder River’s flood terrace. This plant community covered 0.2 ha in 2008. <em>Callitriche stagnalis</em> predominated in this community. Species such as <em>Callitriche hamulata<…
Funkcjonowanie duszpasterstw więziennych wyrazem równouprawnienia kościołów i związków wyznaniowych w Polsce
2016
n this text, the way of realization of the equality principle of churches and religious associations towards the state is introduced. The principle is one of the most essential in the system of the contemporary Polish religious law in relation to the functioning of the priesthoods in the national penitentiaries.
Discovering Gender-Specific Knowledge from Finnish Basic Education using PISA Scale Indices
2014
The Programme for International Student Assessment, PISA, is a worldwide study to assess knowledge and skills of 15- year-old students. Results of the latest PISA survey conducted in 2012 were published in December 2013. According to the results, Finland is one of the few countries where girls performed better in mathematics than boys. The purpose of this work is to refine the analysis of this observation by using education data mining techniques. More precisely, as part of standard PISA preprocessing phase certain scale indices are constructed based on information gathered from the background questionnaire of each participating student. The indices describe, e.g., students’ engagement, dri…
The three wives problem and Shapley value
2015
We examine the Talmudic three wives problem, which is a generalization of the Talmudic contested garment problem solved by Aumann and Maschler (1985) using coalitional procedure. This problem has many practical applications. In an attempt to unify all Talmudic methods, Guiasu (2010, 2011) asserts that it can be explained in terms of “run-to-the-bank”, that is, of Shapley value in a “cumulative game”. It can be challenged because the coalitional procedure yields the same result as the nucleolus, which corresponds to a “dual game”. As Guiasu's solution is paradoxical (it has all the appearances of truth), my contribution consists in explaining the concepts, particularly truncation, that play …
Rare variant analyses across multiethnic cohorts identify novel genes for refractive error
2023
Refractive error, measured here as mean spherical equivalent (SER), is a complex eye condition caused by both genetic and environmental factors. Individuals with strong positive or negative values of SER require spectacles or other approaches for vision correction. Common genetic risk factors have been identified by genome-wide association studies (GWAS), but a great part of the refractive error heritability is still missing. Some of this heritability may be explained by rare variants (minor allele frequency [MAF] ≤ 0.01.). We performed multiple gene-based association tests of mean Spherical Equivalent with rare variants in exome array data from the Consortium for Refractive Error and Myopi…
