Dieta del delfín de Risso (Grampus griseus) en el Mediterráneo occidental
2006
The diet of Risso’s dolphin in the Mediterranean is described based on 15 animals stranded between 40°25’N 00°32’W and 37°35’N 00°45’E from April 1987 to January 2003. The prey were mainly oceanic cephalopods. Pelagic octopods, especially A. argo, were the most abundant (mean = 41.28%; SD±34.32). Species belonging to the families Ommastrephidae, Histioteuthidae and Onychoteuthidae were also frequent components of its diet. The bathymetric distribution of cephalopods shows that Risso’s dolphin preferentially feeds on the middle slope (600 to 800 m depth) in the Mediterranean.
Hatte Stefan I. von Serbien eine tochter namens Komnene? Zur aktue llen diskussion über die Chomatenos-akten zu Stefan Nemanjic und Seinem bruder Sava
2013
This contribution examines the article ?Stefan Nemanjic i njegov brat Sava u spisima Dimitrija Homatina? by Vlada Stankovic (2012) critically. On the basis of Chomatenos files (nos. 1, 3, 10, 13 and 86), he tried to obtain new details about in what way and with what results political and ecclesiastical communication between Epiros and Serbia took place in the period 1215-1219/20. In the course of this, as this present study shows, he repeatedly reached rash, questionable or untenable conclusions. Also the question raised by him - with a critical intention - about the name of Stefan Nemanjic?s daughter is now once again discussed and finally decided in such a way as this was already done in …
Development of a green fluorescent tagged strain of Aspergillus carbonarius to monitor fungal colonization in grapes.
2011
An enhanced green fluorescent protein has been used to tag an OTA-producing strain of Aspergillus carbonarius (W04-40) isolated from naturally infected grape berries. Transformation of the fungus was mediated by Agrobacterium tumefaciens. The most efficient transformation occurred when the co-cultivation was done with 104 conidia due to higher frequency of resistance colonies (894 per 104 conidia) and lower background obtained. To confirm the presence of the hph gene in hygromycin resistant colonies, 20 putative transformants were screened by PCR analysis. The hph gene was identified in all the transformants. Variation on the expression levels of the eGFP was detected among the transformant…
Blefaritis asociada al tratamiento con Cetuximab en adenocarcinoma colorrectal avanzado
2008
espanolCaso clinico: Mujer de 52 anos diagnosticada de adenocarcinoma colorrectal, remitida a nuestro servicio por presentar tras iniciar tratamiento con Cetuximab reaccion adversa palpebral. Discusion: El Cetuximab es un anticuerpo monoclonal cuya diana es el receptor del factor de crecimiento epidermico. Ha sido incorporado recientemente al tratamiento de tumores, principalmente el cancer colorrectal metastatico y los tumores del area otorrinolaringologica. Su tolerancia es en principio mejor que la de los agentes quimioterapicos clasicos. Sin embargo, no esta exento de efectos secundarios. La toxicidad palpebral asociada a Cetuximab ha sido recientemente descrita, por lo que la patogenia…
Hva, hvem og hvordan? : håndbok i helse-, miljø- og sikkerhetsarbeid
2003
Alt som skjer innenfor en virksomhet skal tilfredsstille lovfestede og forskriftsmessige krav til tilsattes helse, miljø og sikkerhet (HMS). Dette er et viktig satsningsområde innenfor norsk arbeidsliv, og det er regulert av arbeidsmiljøloven med tilhørende forskrift om internkontroll. Imidlertid er det et langt stykke vei å gå fra bestemmelser i lov og forskrift til et funskjonelt og realistisk HMS-opplegg i den enkelte virksomhet. Denne boken er en slags "loggbok" for eget arbeid og egen bevisstgjøring gjennom de siste 6- 7 års arbeid innen HMS-sektoren ved Høgskolen i Agder.
Sovereign Debt Litigation in Argentina: Implications of the Pari Passu Default
2015
On 31 July 2014, Argentina defaulted on its sovereign bonds for the second time in the 21st century. It was also its eighth default since independence1; at such frequency, this was perhaps not an especially noteworthy event. What made it so extraordinary was not that another domestic financial crisis triggered the payment default, but rather an injunction handed down by a federal district court in New York. However, despite public outrage, the wider impact of this decision is likely to be limited. That is even more so if reforms that have already started continue to be implemented. The case dates back to Christmas Eve 2001, when the interim Saa administration declared a payment suspension o…
Materialities in supported housing for people with mental health problems : a blurry picture of the tenants
2020
Our daily lives and sense of self are partly formed by material surroundings that are often taken for granted. This materiality is also important for people with mental health problems living in supported housing with surroundings consisting of different healthcare services, neighbourhoods, buildings or furniture. In this study, we explored how understandings of tenants are expressed in the materialities of supported housing. We conducted ethnographic fieldwork in seven different supported accommodations in Norway and analysed the resultant field notes, interviews, photographs and documents using Situational Analysis. The analysis showed that supported housing materialities expressed a blur…
Studies regarding supported housing and the built environment for people with mental health problems : A mixed-methods literature review
2019
Abstract Places where people live are important for their personal and social lives. This is also the case for people with mental health problems living in supported housing. To summarise the existing knowledge, we conducted a systematic review of 13 studies with different methodologies regarding the built environment in supported housing and examined their findings in a thematic analysis. The built environment of supported housing involves three important and interrelated themes: well-being, social identity and privacy. If overregulated by professionals or located in problematic neighbourhoods or buildings, the settings could be an obstacle to recovery. If understood as meaningful places w…
Overcoming barriers to evidence-based patient blood management: a restricted review
2020
Abstract Background Blood transfusions are associated with a range of adverse patient outcomes, including coagulopathy, immunomodulation and haemolysis, which increase the risk of morbidity and mortality. Consideration of these risks and potential benefits are necessary when deciding to transfuse. Patient blood management (PBM) guidelines exist to assist in clinical decision-making, but they are underutilised. Exploration of barriers to the implementation and utilisation of the PBM guidelines is required. This study aimed to identify common barriers and implementation strategies used to implement PBM guidelines, with a comparison against current expert opinion. Methods A restricted review a…
What matters to older adults? Exploring person‐centred care during and after transitions between hospital and home
2021
Aims and objectives To explore person-centred care provided to a group of older adults (65+) by understanding their experiences of care received, their participation in care and what matters to them during and after the transition process between hospital and home. Background Although facilitating person-centred care (PCC) has gained increasing importance globally over the last few decades, its practical implementation has been challenging. This has caused difficulties in determining its core elements and best practices. Person-centred care aims to deliver healthcare services based on individuals' preferences. Several approaches have been developed to better implement person-centred care pr…
