Investigation of insulin resistance in narcoleptic patients: dependent or independent of body mass index?
2011
Alice Engel1,2, Jana Helfrich1, Nina Manderscheid1, Petra B Musholt3, Thomas Forst3, Andreas Pfützner3, Norbert Dahmen1,21Department of Psychiatry, University of Mainz, Germany; 2Fachklinik Katzenelnbogen, Katzenelnbogen, Germany; 3IKFE, Institute for Clinical Research and Development, Mainz, GermanyBackground: Narcolepsy is a severe sleep-wake cycle disorder resulting in most cases from a lack of orexin, the energy balance-regulating hormone. Narcoleptic patients have been reported to suffer from an excess morbidity of Type 2 diabetes, even after correction for their often elevated body mass index.Methods: To explore whether narcolepsy is specifically associated with a propensity …
The need for information in purchase situation and the information behavior in front of the shelf : use and effects of electronic interactive communi…
1999
The classic approach of buying behavior supposes that the consumption value derives from the evaluation of the technical, functionnal and symbolic features of the product. But, most of recents works use an experiential approach, for which the anticiped situation of consumption or use and the self concept are the essential elements of the consumption value. This thesis, devoted to information behavior in buying situation, attemps to conciliate these two paradigms until here opposite. The first part of this search investigates the concept of need for information. Its results, according to us, the activation ot two schemes, the first concerning the product acquisition, the second relative to t…
Photoinduced Electron Transfer in a Porphyrin-Fullerene Dyad at a Liquid Interface
2022
The excited-state properties of an amphiphilic porphyrin–fullerene dyad and of its porphyrin analogue adsorbed at the dodecane/water interface are investigated by using surface second-harmonic generation. Although the porphyrin is formally centrosymmetric, the second-harmonic spectra of both compounds are dominated by the intense Soret band of the porphyrin. Polarization-selective measurements and molecular dynamics simulations suggest an angle of about 45° between the donor–acceptor axis and the interfacial plane, with the porphyrin interacting mostly with the nonpolar phase. Time-resolved measurements reveal a marked concentration dependence of the dynamics of both compounds upon Q-band e…

Vivir Mejor: Diseño, desarrollo y evaluación de una intervención online para cambios de estilos de vida en personas con obesidad e hipertensión.
2017
El sobrepeso, la obesidad y la hipertensión son importantes problemas de salud asociadas a graves consecuencias físicas y psicosociales. Los cambios en los estilos de vida son considerados elementos clave en la prevención y tratamiento para estas condiciones médicas. Ambas pueden ser evitadas y/o mejoradas con la instauración de comportamientos saludables, como seguir una dieta saludable y la práctica de actividad física, entre otros. Los datos indican que los tratamientos habituales en los hospitales y los servicios de salud para promover estos cambios en los hábitos no son lo suficientemente eficaces. Urgen soluciones innovadoras que ayuden a intervenir de manera eficaz y coste-efectiva e…

Variability of the human gut microbiota in space, time, and associated with the irritable bowel syndrome
2013
Esta tesis doctoral se centra en el estudio de una de las comunidades microbianas más complejas y de mayor interés biomédico: la microbiota asociada al intestino distal de humanos. El objetivo principal ha sido estudiar las alteraciones potenciales de la microbiota intestinal en relación con el síndrome del intestino irritable (SII), el desorden funcional del tracto gastrointestinal más común en sociedades occidentales. Nuestra aproximación forma parte de una visión actual sobre las relaciones entre microorganismos y hospedadores que trasciende la clásica y estrecha mirada sobre patógenos concretos y enfermedades infecciosas y la desplaza hacia una concepción más de conjunto, que valora los…
Obesity as a predictor of falls among older women
2012
In older people’s falls often lead to hospitalisation and lengthy recovery in health care institutions and this may be conducive to financial strain on health care systems. The propensity or risk of falling rises as the individual gets older and frailer. Fear of falling, previous history of falling, poor mobility, limitations in Activities of Daily Living (ADL), side effects of medications, hazardous environment, poor vision and hearing, poor postural balance and gaits impairment are among the frequent factors that give rise to falls amongst older people. However, studies focused on obesity as a risk factor for falls are rarer. The aim of this study was to find out whether obesity increases…
