Nonsurgical Procedures for Keratoconus Management

2017

Objectives. To describe the past 20 years’ correction modalities for keratoconus and their visual outcomes and possible complications.Methods. A review of the published literature related to the visual outcomes and possible complications in the context of keratoconus management using nonsurgical procedures for the last 20 years (glasses and contact lenses) was performed. Original articles that reported the outcome of any correction modalities of keratoconus management were reviewed.Results. The most nonsurgical procedure used on keratoconus management is the contact lens fitting. Soft contact lenses and soft toric contact lenses, rigid gas-permeable contact lenses, piggyback contact lens sy…

Molecular basis of burn wound healing in diabetics: the effect of vitamin B17, metformin, and autologous fat stem cells

Effects of whole-body vibration exercise on muscular strength and power, functional mobility and self-reported knee function in middle-aged and older…

2013

Abstract Background Whole-body vibration training using vertical-vibration machines is called “acceleration training” (AT). The purpose of this study was to elucidate the effect of AT on lower-limb muscular strength and power, functional mobility and self-reported knee function in middle-aged and older Japanese women with knee pain. Methods Thirty-eight middle-aged and older Japanese women (aged 50–73 years) with knee pain were divided into two groups: (1) the AT group (n = 29) engaged in AT three times per week for eight weeks, and (2) the control group (C group, n = 9). The AT program consisted of flexibility training, strength training of mainly the quadriceps and surrounding muscles and…

On the Convergence of Affective and Persuasive Technologies in Computer-Mediated Health-Care Systems

2015

This paper offers a portrayal of how affective computing and persuasive technologies can converge into an effective tool for interfacing biomedical engineering with behavioral sciences and medicine. We describe the characteristics, features, applications, present state of the art, perspectives, and trends of both streams of research. In particular, these streams are analyzed in light of the potential contribution of their convergence for improving computer-mediated health-care systems, by facilitating the modification of patients’ attitudes and behaviors, such as engagement and compliance. We propose a framework for future research in this emerging area, highlighting how key constructs and …

Evidencialitātes izteikšanas līdzekļi latviešu valodā

2014

Anotācija Promocijas darbs „Evidencialitātes izteikšanas līdzekļi latviešu valodā” uzskatāms par pirmo pētījumu, kas par galveno analīzes objektu izvirza evidencialitāti un tās izpausmi latviešu valodā. Evidencialitāte ir semantiska kategorija, kuras galvenā funkcija ir norāde uz informācijas ieguves avotu. Darba mērķis – analizēt evidencialitāti kā semantisku kategoriju, balstoties latviešu valodas materiālā. Promocijas darba teorētiskajā daļā aplūkota evidencialitātes jēdziena izpratne valodniecībā un analīzes iespējas, tās vēsturiskie aizsākumi un attīstība līdz mūsdienām, tipoloģija, tiešas un netiešas informācijas šķīrums un ar to saistītā problemātika, epistēmiskās modalitātes un evid…

Costruzione dei rilevati stradali e ferroviari: valutazione delle metodologie di progetto delle terre trattate con calce

2010

Nella costruzione delle opere civili e, soprattutto, delle infrastrutture di trasporto, elemento qualificante per la minimizzazione degli impatti economici ed ambientali è l’adozione del trattamento con calce dei terreni argillosi di scavo, di per sé non idonei ad essere impiegati nei manufatti in terra, e la loro utilizzazione - previo trattamento con calce, appunto - per la costruzione di rilevati ed altre opere in terra. La tecnica del trattamento con calce delle terre argillose permette di ottenere diversi vantaggi di ordine tecnico, economico ed ambientale. I progressi tecnologici conseguiti negli ultimi decenni, particolarmente per quanto riguarda gli studi di progetto, i mezzi di can…

MODULATION OF FOOD REWARD BY ADIPOSITY SIGNALS

2006

Extensive historical evidence from the drug abuse literature has provided support for the concept that there is functional communication between central nervous system (CNS) circuitries which subserve reward/motivation, and the regulation of energy homeostasis. This concept is substantiated by recent studies that map anatomical pathways, or which demonstrate that hormones and neurotransmitters associated with energy homeostasis regulation can directly modulate reward and motivation behaviors. Studies from our laboratory have focused specifically on the candidate adiposity hormones, insulin and leptin, and show that these hormones can decrease performance in behavioral paradigms that assess …

"Qui s'engage sur quoi ? L'épineuse question de l'évidentialité dans les textes de type "pronostic" en allemand à partir d'un corpus de prévisions fi…

2018

National audience; L’exposé vise à proposer une approche intégrative des modalités épistémiques et de l’évidentialité dans un type de texte spécialisé contraint : le discours de conjoncture économique avec un focus particulier sur sa dimension prévision/pronostic. Intégratif s’entend comme une tentative de saisie holistique du moule discursif sous-jacent indexant la mise en œuvre d’un lexique-grammaire particulier sur des contenus et connaissances spécialisés conduisant à la fossilisation de répertoires restreints.Le corpus analysé est double : il comprend d’une part un corpus de texte en allemand, langue originale, en l’espèce les 12 rapports mensuels de la Bundesbank de 2016, et d’autre p…
