El objetivo del presente artículo es la exposición sucinta de la exclusión de las mujeres en la resolución del 27 de Julio de 2017 en el que se explicita el convenio de colaboración entre la Dirección General de Salud Pública, Calidad e Innovación y la empresa Gilead Servicios S.L.U. Este convenio es la formalización de la entrada e implementación de la profilaxis preexposición ante el VIH en el territorio nacional. La profilaxis preexposición ante el VIH es una novedosa intervención biomédica de carácter preventivo aplicada en personas que no viven con el VIH, que contiene como parte fundamental la ingesta diaria de un medicamento llamado Truvada, formado por dos componentes farmacológicos…
Management of macular edema due to branch retinal vein occlusion with intravitreal injections of pegaptanib sodium
2009
Purpose To evaluate the efficacy of Pegaptanib Sodium as single therapy for macular edema due to non-ischemic branch retinal vein occlusion. Methods In this uncontrolled prospective pilot study 17 patients have been included with non-ischemic branch retinal vein occlusion. All of them showed macular edema in the OCT with central foveal thickness higher than 350 microns (mean, 541 +/- 140) and decrease in visual acuity lower than 0,5 Snellen ETDRS charts notation (mean, 0,16+/-0,14). After an initial injection of Pegaptanib Sodium evaluations were programmed every 5 weeks and further retreatments were developed in cases with macular thickness higher than 300 microns. No other therapies were …
Secondary Vitrectomy with Internal Limiting Membrane Plug due to Persistent Full-Thickness Macular Hole OCT-Angiography and Microperimetry Features: …
2020
Purpose. To study the features in OCT-angiography and microperimetry in eyes with persistent full-thickness macular hole (FTMH) closed with the secondary plana vitrectomy (PPV) with autologous internal limiting membrane (ILM) plug. Methods. Secondary PPV was performed with closing the persistent FTMH with ILM plug, C3F8 tamponade, and face-down positioning. Four patients were followed for 6 months with best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) measurement, SD-OCT and OCT-A, and microperimetry. The results were compared with the fellow eye; in two patients, it was the healthy eye, and in two remaining eyes, successfully closed FTMH after primary PPV. Results. ILM flap was integrated in all cases w…
Current Clinical Application of Microperimetry: A Review.
2018
Microperimetry (MP) is a technology that allows the study of retinal sensitivity at different foveal and parafoveal areas as well as eye fixation. It is a technique of functional evaluation, providing a direct correlation between anatomical and functional outcomes. There are a great variety of studies which evaluate the repeatability or reliability of measurements obtained with this technology and also describe and explore different clinical applications. MP has been shown to be useful in the characterization of sensory and motor conditions, such as amblyopia or nystagmus. Concerning ocular pathology, several studies have confirmed the usefulness of MP for evaluating and analyzing different…
Emotional tone, analytical thinking, and somatosensory processes of a sample of Italian Tweets during the first phases of the COVID-19 pandemic : obs…
2021
Background The COVID-19 pandemic is a traumatic individual and collective chronic experience, with tremendous consequences on mental and psychological health that can also be reflected in people’s use of words. Psycholinguistic analysis of tweets from Twitter allows obtaining information about people’s emotional expression, analytical thinking, and somatosensory processes, which are particularly important in traumatic events contexts. Objective We aimed to analyze the influence of official Italian COVID-19 daily data (new cases, deaths, and hospital discharges) and the phase of managing the pandemic on how people expressed emotions and their analytical thinking and somatosensory processes …
Hemocyanin in mollusks--a molecular survey and new data on hemocyanin genes in Solenogastres and Caudofoveata.
2008
The most common respiratory protein of mollusks is the blue, copper-containing hemocyanin (van Holde and Miller, 1995). It is not bound to hemocytes but suspended in the hemolymph. Its molecular mass ranges from 3500 10 to 8000 10 Da (dalton) or even more (Herskovits, 1988). These differences in molecular weight are due to the fact that the basic decamers that constitute the barrel-shaped protein may aggregate to didecamers or multidecameric elongated particles (Herskovits, 1988). In cephalopods and chitons (Polyplacophora), there are exclusively decamers, whereas in protobranch bivalves and gastropods the predominantly observed aggregation state is didecamers (Herskovits, 1988; van Holde a…
Choroidal thickness in glaucoma patients and glaucoma suspects measured by spectral domain coherence optical tomography
2012
Purpose: The aim of our study was to evaluate and compare retro-foveolar choroidal thickness (RFCT) of healthy subjects, individuals with intraocular hypertension, patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), patients with normal tension glaucoma (NTG) and patients with primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) by spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT).Methods: Sixty-five healthy eyes, 30 eyes with intraocular hypertension, 90 eyes with POAG, 30 eyes with NTG and 20 eyes with PACG were included in this cross-sectional study. RFCT, foveolar retinal thickness and average retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFL) were measured by SD-OCT (Spectralis HRA-OCT, Heidelberg Engineer…
How does a simulated soccer match affect regional differences in biceps femoris muscle architecture?
2017
Soccer is played by thousands of athletes across the globe and its participation increases the overall risk of injury, in particular, hamstring strain injuries (HSI). Biceps femoris (BF) has been shown to be involved the in 5 out of 6 HSI cases and risk factors including fatigue and short BF fascicle length (FL) have been identified. Furthermore, previous studies suggest that different muscle regions may undergo different strains during dynamic tasks, which could contribute to injury risk. The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of a soccer match on regional differences in the BF muscle architecture. A secondary aim was to assess the reliability of the extended field of vi…
Fovisma virziens kā radošās darbības veicinātājs vizuālajā mākslā 3. klasē mākslas skolā
2021
Diplomdarba autore Linda Kapakle izstrādājusi diplomdarbu “Fovisma virziens kā radošās darbības veicinātājs vizuālajā mākslā 3. klasē mākslas skolā”. Diplomdarba mērķis ir izpētīt radošās darbības veicināšanas iespējas mācību tēmā “Fovisms”. Mācību uzdevumi paredzēti tēmas vispusīgai iepazīšanai un skolēnu radošās darbības veicināšanai, uzsvaru liekot uz fovisma virziena mākslinieciskās izteiksmes līdzekļu izmantošanu. Par diplomdarba uzdevumiem tika izvirzīta fovisma virziena izpēte un Anrī Matisa mākslinieciskās darbības analīze, radošuma jēdziena un pusaudžu vecumposma izpēte, uzdevumu kopas un mācību materiālu izstrāde mācību tēmas apguvei, kā arī uzdevumu kopas un mācību uzskates mater…
Dažādu mākslas virzienu iepazīšana attēlojot augus
2015
Diplomdarba tēma- Dažādu mākslas virzienu iepazīšana attēlojot augus. Diplomdarba mērķis ir 8.klases skolēnos rast izpratni par trīs mākslas virzieniem – neoimpresionismu, fovismu, kubismu. Uzsvars tiek likts uz mākslas virzienu vizuālajiem elementiem, nevis tematiku- auga attēls tiek izmantots tikai kā apvienojošs elements. Diplomdarba autore ir izvirzījusi vairākus uzdevumus, lai sasniegtu diplomdarba mērķi. Uzdevumu ietvaros tiek pētīta literatūra par mākslas virzieniem, to vizuālajiem elementiem un ievērojamākajiem māksliniekiem. Tiek pētīta konkrētā vecumposma īpatnības, kā arī veikta mācību uzdevumu kopas izveide un īstenošana praksē, izvēloties piemērotākās metodes un veicot novēroju…
