Validation of eating habits subscale in children (sehan: spanish version) from 10 to 12 years.
2015
Introducción: Es necesario identificar hábitos alimentarios de riesgo para frenar el aumento de la prevalencia del sobrepeso infantil y garantizar el derecho a la salud del niño. Para ello, se requiere el uso de instrumentos validados en contextos escolares y familiares. Objetivo: Validar una Subescala de Hábitos Alimentarios en Niños (SEHAN), para su uso en escolares españoles entre 10 y 12 años. Método: Las propiedades psicométricas de la SEHAN se estudiaron en 3 apartados: Validez y lógica del instrumento, fiabilidad y consistencia interna, y validez criterial. En el primer apartado participó un grupo de 5 expertos, que valoró la suficiencia, claridad, coherencia y relevancia del instrum…
A plant sociological approach for extensive green roofs in Mediterranean areas
2013
Extensive Green roofs can be an important mean for environmental mitigation if designed according to the principles of restoration ecology. Moreover, if optimally executed, properly managed and of sufficient extension, they could be assimilated to meta-populations of natural habitats, worth to be included in the biodiversity monitoring networks. The best example supporting this hypothesis is the Lake water plant Moos in Wollishofen (Zurich, Switzerland) where, on three 100 years old units of extensive green roofs, occur most of the typical flora of Mesobromion, including high density of some endangered orchid species. With this work, we propose a methodology approach for green roofs in Medi…
A dual process model to predict adolescents’ screen time and physical activity
2021
OBJECTIVE: Many adolescents report a lack of physical activity (PA) and excess screen time (ST). Psychological theories aiming to understand these behaviours typically focus on predictors of only one behaviour. Yet, behaviour enactment is often a choice between options. This study sought to examine predictors of PA and ST in a single model. Variables were drawn from dual process models, which portray behaviour as the outcome of deliberative and automatic processes. DESIGN: 411 Finnish vocational school students (age 17-19) completed a survey, comprising variables from the Reasoned Action Approach (RAA) and automaticity pertaining to PA and ST, and self-reported PA and ST four weeks later. M…
A conspectus of Tephroseris (Asteraceae: Senecioneae) in Europe outside Russia and notes on the decline of the genus
2021
Tephroseris is generally considered a difficult genus. Based on the examination of extensive herbarium material and considering the existing literature, we recognize seven species in Europe outside Russia. These are T. palustris, T. integrifolia with subsp. integrifolia, subsp. aurantiaca, subsp. capitata, subsp. maritima, subsp. serpentini and subsp. “tundricola”, T. balbisiana, T. crispa, T. helenitis, T. longifolia and T. papposa. Phylogenetic analysis of ITS and ETS sequences showed that these species fall into three lineages. These are: (1) T. palustris, clearly related to Arctic species of the genus; (2) T. integrifolia; and (3) the remaining species. Molecular dating of the T. integr…
Il pluralismo familiare in Italia: unioni civili e convivenze.
2019
The law n. 76/2016 gives legal recognition to the families not based on marriage, by regulating the civil unions between persons of the same sex and the cohabitation. The essay analyzes the existing rules, highlighting its critical aspects and the doubts of interpretation.
The working partner in family enterprise : European and national issues
2021
The essay focuses on the discipline of the work done by one partner in the company of the other in cross-border couples and on the problems involved in this case. More specifically the focus is on the hermeneutical problems that arise both at the level of European legislation and at the level of Italian national discipline which is applicable according to European conflict criteria, showing the ambiguities and wide areas of shadow left uncovered by the latter.
La nueva oportunidad de la hipoteca inversa
2021
The reverse mortgage is a credit or loan guaranteed by a mortgage that falls on the applicant?s habitual residence, granted at once, or through periodic benefits, to a person who must be over a certain age or prove a degree of disability or dependency, and is not due until the time of death. In view of the doubts that the future of the public pension is raising and the concentration of savings in Spanish property, the reverse mortgage is once again being put on the table as a viable alternative to complement a public pension with little revaluation, in view of the increase in life expectancy and expenses after retirement.
Safety Evaluation of α-Lipoic Acid Supplementation: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Placebo-Controlled Clinical Studies
2020
Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) is a natural short-chain fatty acid that has attracted great attention in recent years as an antioxidant molecule. However, some concerns have been recently raised regarding its safety profile. To address the issue, we aimed to assess ALA safety profile through a systematic review of the literature and a meta-analysis of the available randomized placebo-controlled clinical studies. The literature search included EMBASE, PubMed Medline, SCOPUS, Google Scholar, and ISI Web of Science by Clarivate databases up to 15th August 2020. Data were pooled from 71 clinical studies, comprising 155 treatment arms, which included 4749 subjects with 2558 subjects treated with ALA an…
Augstā purva biotopu atjaunošana īpaši aizsargājamās dabas teritorijās Latvijā 2010-2013
2013
Purvs ir viena no jutīgākajām dabas ekosistēmām. Projekta mērķis ir atjaunot augstā purva biotopus četru dabas liegumu – Melnā ezera purva, Aklā purva, Rožu purva, Aizkraukles purvu un mežu – degradētajās platībās un pievērst sabiedrības uzmanību Latvijas dabas vērtībām.
Augstā purva biotopu atjaunošana īpaši aizsargājamās dabas teritorijās Latvijā
2010
Purvs ir mitra dzīvotne, kurai raksturīga aktīva kūdras veidošanās. Tā ir mājvieta daudziem augiem un dzīvniekiem, kuri nespēj dzīvot citur. Neskarti augstie purvi ir rets un apdraudēts biotops Eiropā. Nosusināšana, kūdras ieguve, mežu stādīšana un zemes rekultivācija pēdējās desmitgadēs ir nelabvēlīgi ietekmējusi purvus. Meliorācijas sistēmu ietekmes dēļ Aizkraukles purvā un mežos, Aklajā, Rožu un Melnā ezera purvā purva biotopi ir izmainījušies. Projekta mērķis ir atjaunot dabisko ūdens līmeni projekta vietās – augstā purva biotopos, kurus ir ietekmējusi nosusināšana – tādējādi aizsargāt Eiropas un Latvijas nozīmes purva biotopus, augus un dzīvniekus.
