Stability and marginal bone loss in implants placed using piezoelectric osteotomy versus conventional drilling: systematic review and meta-analysis.
2021
Background The main objective of this systematic review was to compare primary and secondary implant stability between placement with piezoelectric osteotomy and conventional drilling, comparing marginal bone losses as a secondary objective. Material and Methods An electronic search was conducted using PubMed (MEDLINE), Scopus, and Cochrane Library (Wiley) databases, besides a manual search. Results A total of 153 articles were retrieved, 39 from Pubmed, 44 from Scopus, and 70 from the Cochrane Library. After removing duplicates, 112 articles (1 from the manual search) were screened, and 9 were finally selected for qualitative and statistical analyses. Conclusions Piezoelectric surgery is a…
Soil water repellency assessment in olive groves in Southern and Eastern Spain
2016
Soil water repellency (SWR) has been reported under different soils, land uses and regions of the world, particularly in forest land and after wildfires, yet the understanding of this variable in agricultural lands is still rather limited. This study presents the characterization from field-based measurements of SWR in four contrasted olive groves (Olea europaea L.) in Spain in terms of different environmental conditions and management: abandoned and commercial farms under permanent cover crop, conventional tillage and herbicide use. The main objectives were [1] to evaluate the potential occurrence, intensity and persistence of soil water repellency in different types of olive groves and [2…
Long-term cropping systems and tillage management effects on soil organic carbon stocks and steady state level of C sequestration rates in a semiarid…
2010
A calcareous and clayey xeric Chromic Haploxerept of a long-term experimental site in Sicily (Italy) was sampled (0–15 cm depth) under different land use management and cropping systems (CSs) to study their effect on soil aggregate stability and organic carbon (SOC). The experimental site had three tillage managements (no till [NT], dual-layer [DL] and conventional tillage [CT]) and two CSs (durum wheat monocropping [W] and durum wheat/faba bean rotation [WB]). The annually sequestered SOC with W was 2·75-times higher than with WB. SOC concentrations were also higher. Both NT and CT management systems were the most effective in SOC sequestration whereas with DL system no C was sequestered. …

In the conquest of Valencia in 1238 and its subsequent Christianization we find the genesis of the convent city. Over the centuries the dominant presence of convents and monasteries determined various aspects of the city, urban development being one of them. However, the influence and power that these monasteries exercised diminished gradually with the reduction in the number of their members and foundations. The point of no return comes with the nineteenth century when the successive confiscations and the consolidation of the bourgeoisie mean its fading. This study aims to make an approach to the role that the destruction of convents and monasteries played in the urban development and prog…
La capilla de la Virgen del Carmen y el arquitecto Vicente Gascó
2021
El presente trabajo revela parte del proceso constructivo y aspectos de culto de la capilla de la Virgen del Carmen (1774-1783), titular del antiguo convento carmelita de la ciudad de Valencia, constituyendo uno de los mejores ejemplos de arquitectura académica en la capital. En el año 1776, hallándose la capilla pendiente de proseguir la obra, tuvo lugar el informe para proceder al tallado, inspirado en la obra de Palladio, así como dos justiprecios de su coste. La investigación se completa con nuevas aportaciones a la biografía de su principal artífice, el arquitecto Vicente Gascó Masot (1734-1802). Entre ellas sobresale, dentro del inventario de bienes post mortem, su rica y variada bibl…

Copenhagen failure : a rhetorical treatise of how speeches unite and divide mankind
2010
The purpose of this treatise is to analyse five of the Copenhagen Climate Convention's main speeches to see how they supported or weakened the agreement possibilities in the convention. Particular focus will be on the elements that divide or unite negotiators and whether the summit's failing outcome is already built in the pre-planned speeches held at the main podium. Theoretically, the study builds on Kenneth Burke's identification thesis and Elizabeth L. Malone's climate change debate analysis. I combine these in my analysis using a revised version of Malone's argument family classification tool putting it into Burke's theoretical framework. The central concept is Burke's identification, …
Children’s Right to Play and Its Implementation: A Comparative, International Perspective
2021
The child's right to play is specifically addressed in the framework of the Convention on the Rights of the Child. The international recognition of this right is the central theme of this study. Through a documentary analysis of the reports of the States Parties to the Convention and the Concluding Observations of the Committee on the Rights of the Child, the study assesses the recognition of this right. The entry into force of General Comment 17 on the right of the child to rest, recreation, play, recreational activities, cultural life and the arts (art. 31) in 2013 should have marked a turning point in policies on children in the States Parties, but this did not occur. Policies cannot be …
CONTRAHERE E ANIMUS CONTRAHENDI IN SALVIO GIULIANO
2022
The paper deals with the category of negotium in Salvius Iulianus. The author rejects the thesis according to which the jurist would have developed a concept of negotium as an objective relationship between two distinct assets. From the examination of Iul. 15 dig. D. 18.5.5 and Iul. 18 dig. D. 12.1.20 has rather taken shape the image of a jurist attentive to the will of the contracting parties, in the determination of id quod actum est.
