Anthropometric measures of 9-to 10-year-old native tibetan children living at 3700 and 4300m above sea level and han Chinese living at 3700m
2015
A high residential altitude impacts on the growth of children, and it has been suggested that linear growth (height) is more affected than body mass. The aim of the present study was to estimate the prevalence of obesity, overweight, underweight, and stunting in groups of native Tibetan children living at different residential altitudes (3700 vs 4300 m above sea level) and across ancestry (native Tibetan vs Han Chinese children living at the same altitude of 3700 m), as well as to examine the total effect of residential altitude and ancestry with stunting. Two cross-sectional studies of 1207 school children aged 9 to 10 years were conducted in Lhasa in 2005 and Tingri in 2007. Conventional …
Economic Impact of 'Third-Wave' Cognitive Behavioral Therapies:A Systematic Review and Quality Assessment of Economic Evaluations in Randomized Contr…
2018
The term third-wave cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) encompasses new forms of CBT that both extend and innovate within CBT. Most third-wave therapies have been subject to randomized controlled trials (RCTs) focused on clinical effectiveness; however, the number and quality of economic evaluations in these RCTs has been unknown and may be few. Evidence about efficiency of these therapies may help support decisions on efficient allocation of resources in health policies. The main aim of this study was to systematically review the economic impact of third-wave therapies in the treatment of patients with physical or mental conditions. We conducted a systematic literature search in PubMed, Psy…
Prevalence and characteristics of antidepressant drug prescriptions in older Italian patients.
2012
ABSTRACTBackground: During last few decades, the proportion of elderly persons prescribed with antidepressants for the treatment of depression and anxiety has increased. The aim of this study was to evaluate prevalence of antidepressant prescription and related factors in elderly in-patients, as well as the consistency between prescription of antidepressants and specific diagnoses requiring these medications.Methods: Thirty-four internal medicine and four geriatric wards in Italy participated in the Registro Politerapie SIMI–REPOSI study during 2008. In all, 1,155 in-patients, 65 years or older, were enrolled. Prevalence of the use of antidepressants was calculated at both admission and dis…
Association between clusters of diseases and polypharmacy in hospitalized elderly patients: results from the REPOSI study.
2011
BACKGROUND: Although the association between multimorbidity and polypharmacy has been clearly documented, no study has analyzed whether or not specific combinations of diseases influence the prescription of polypharmacy in older persons. We assessed which clusters of diseases are associated with polypharmacy in acute-care elderly in-patients. METHODS: This cross-sectional study was held in 38 Italian internal medicine and geriatric wards participating in the Registro Politerapie SIMI (REPOSI) study during 2008. The study sample included 1155 in-patients aged 65 years or older. Clusters of diseases, defined as two or more co-occurring specific chronic diseases, were identified using the odds…
Satvara izstrāde vienotai lietotāja ievades klienta un servera puses validācijai
2016
Lietotāja ievades validācija ir pašsaprotams process jebkurā nopietnā sistēmā. Slikti dati un izvairīšanās no to apstrādes var novest pie drošības riskiem, negaidītas sistēmas darbības vai sliktas pieredzes lietojot sistēmu. Parasti sistēmām servera puses un klienta puses validācijas tiek veidotas atsevišķi, taču uzdevumi bieži vien pārklājas. Kā bakalaura darba mērķis tika izvirzīts izpētīt klienta un servera puses validācijas risinājumus, atrast kopīgās raksturīpašības un izveidot sistēmu, kas ļauj vienuviet pārvaldīt izmaiņas, nodrošināt kļūdu ziņojumu tulkojumus, neatkārtot darbības, kas jau veiktas citā solī. Bakalaura darbā izvirzītā hipotēze – vienota satvara izstrāde klienta un serv…
Due note etimologiche circostanziali circa il Ms.II.D.54 (BNN) attribuito a Baffi
2019
Within the investigations on the attribution of some manuscripts to the famous philologist P. Baffi and now kept at the National Library of Naples (BNN), this brief contribution investigates in detail some of the passages contained in Ms.II.D.54 (f. 234r et f. 325r), in order to understand its meaning and to evaluate and validate its attributing hypotheses.
Measurements on partial discharge in on‐site operating power transformer: a case study
2018
This study presents the case study of a substation in-service power transformer referred to the on-site partial discharge (PD) detection and evaluation methods. An original methodology for simultaneous application of three methods is proposed: electrical, acoustic and ultra-high frequency. Transformer is powered by the power grid and no external generator is required according to the proposed methodology. Furthermore, several possibilities of applying these concurrent measurements and benefits of such solution in terms of result interpretation, interference resistance and on-site measurement applicability are indicated. The proposed methodology allows for a fast, accurate and secure PD diag…
Neutron scattering and imaging: a tool for archaeological studies
2015
International audience; Neutron scattering and neutron imaging are powerful techniques for studying the structure of objects without damage, which is an essential prerequisite for investigations in Cultural Heritage domain, particularly in Archaeology. The deep penetration of neutrons in most materials allows for the study of relatively large objects. The contrast between similar materials, like metals in alloys, or that due to the presence of hydrogen atoms gives information about the internal structure of objects that have been modified or repaired in the past. Imaging and tomography give a 3-dimensional view of the whole object, permitting discrimination between different parts of the ob…
Un estudio comparativo entre dos herramientas de respuesta de audiencia en las aulas universitarias
2019
El objetivo de este texto es investigar la influencia del uso de herramientas tecnológicas en las aulas universitarias. En concreto, analizamos y evaluamos la aplicación de dos herramientas de respuesta de audiencia libres (específicamente Socrative y Kahoot!) como herramientas que fomentan la participación y asistencia de los alumnos a las sesiones teóricas y facilitan el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje. Se analiza si estas herramientas pueden ser utilizadas como motivadoras, fomentadoras de la participación del alumnado y facilitadoras del aprendizaje. Además, la opinión de los estudiantes sobre la utilidad de estas herramientas en el aula y como métodos de enseñanza-aprendizaje. La mues…
Atomic Layer Deposition and Properties of Lanthanum Oxide and Lanthanum-Aluminum Oxide Films
2006
Atomic layer deposition (ALD) of lanthanum oxide on glass and silicon substrates was examined using lanthanum silylamide, La[N(SiMe 3 ) 2 ] 3 , and water as precursors in the substrate temperature range of 150-250 °C. The effect of pulse times and precursor evaporation temperature on the growth rate and refractive index was investigated. The films remained amorphous regardless of the deposition conditions. The resulting La 2 O 3 films contained noticeable amounts of hydrogen and silicon and were chemically unstable while stored in ambient air. Lanthanum aluminum oxide films were achieved with stoichiometry close to that of LaAlO 3 at 225°C from La[N(SiMe 3 ) 2 ] 3 , Al(CH 3 ) 3 , and H 2 O.…
