Production of Anti-Endomysial Antibodies in Cultured Duodenal Mucosa: Usefulness in Coeliac Disease Diagnosis
2002
Although anti-endomysial antibodies (EmA) have been found in the supernatants of cultured intestinal mucosa from patients with coeliac disease (CD), in no study has the clinical reliability of this new diagnostic tool been investigated. Our aims were to evaluate the clinical usefulness of the in vitro production of EmA in CD diagnosis in consecutive patients with suspected CD, and to evaluate the reliability of the in vitro challenge in CD patients on a gluten-free diet (GFD).For the former aim, consecutive patients who were due to undergo intestinal biopsy for suspected diagnosis of CD were enrolled: according to the final diagnosis, these patients were divided into two groups: Group 1 com…
Redemption and home in the african american city upon a hill: hannah crafts’s the bondwoman’s narrative.
2019
The Bondwoman’s Narrative (1857) is a novel in which the black female slave Hannah Crafts aims at the remodeling of her society and to gain self–assertion through a deeply Christian commitment and a total and honest respect to the values it impinges drawing broadly on the Bible and reshaping biblical imagery to convey her message and to submit her subjectivity and her Americanness. By using the national continuum of jeremiad rhetoric and her attachment to the values of the Christian creed, the novel partakes and yet takes a different direction from slave narratives by cagily forerunning Du Bois’s praised theory of the double consciousness. In so doing, it positions its protagonist as the fi…
Uso problemático del smartphone: el papel de los Cinco Grandes, la Tríada Oscura y la impulsividad
2021
Abstract. Este estudio examinó las relaciones entre los rasgos de personalidad de los cinco grandes (extraversión, afabilidad, neuroticismo, responsabilidad y apertura a la experiencia), la tríada oscura (maquiavelismo, psicopatía y narcisismo), la impulsividad y el uso problemático del smartphone. Doscientos dos participantes (52.48% hombres), con edades comprendidas entre los 18 y los 58 años, completaron el Ten-Item Personality Inventory, la Smartphone Addiction Scale, el Dirty Dozen y la escala de impulsividad de Plutchik. Los análisis de correlación mostraron que el uso problemático del smartphone estaba significativamente asociado a la extraversión, el neuroticismo, la impulsividad y …
Rasgos de personalidad, bienestar y malestar psicológico en usuarios de redes sociales que presentan conductas disruptivas online
2021
The present study focused on the analysis of online disruptive behavior that usually occurs among social network users. Individuals who perpetrate such behavior are commonly known as trolls or haters (Cheng, Danescu-Niculescu-Mitzil, & Leskovec, 2015). In general, they post comments, photos or provocative videos that do not pursue any purpose other than annoying or obtaining pleasure or fun (Brandel, 2007; Phillips, 2011). Recent studies have shown that certain personality traits are associated with the presence of such disruptive behavior. In this research, we studied normal personality traits, psychopathological traits, and dark personality traits in relation to disruptive behavior. The n…
Algunas reflexiones sobre el alcoholismo femenino
2005
En el presente trabajo se pretende interesar al lector en el análisis del fenómeno del alcoholismo femenino. Se tratan diversos temas como el contexto en el que se socializan las mujeres, teniendo en cuenta los cambios acaecidos en la familia como institución y el rol de la mujer en la sociedad. Otra cuestión con referencia a ese contexto es la prevalencia del consumo de alcohol en el colectivo de mujeres en España y las nuevas tendencias de dicho consumo. Se revisan brevemente los diferentes enfoques teóricos que enmarcan la comprensión e interpretación del alcoholismo, incidiendo en los aspectos de la desviación social y el control social. Para finalizar, algunas consideraciones sobre la …
Non-celiac wheat sensitivity: differential diagnosis, triggers and implications.
2015
Abstract Non allergy-non-celiac wheat sensitivity (NCWS) has become a common and often overrated diagnosis. Skepticism mainly relates to patients with prominent intestinal symptoms in the absence of general or intestinal signs of inflammation. There is consensus that the major wheat sensitivities, celiac disease and wheat allergy, have to be ruled out which may be difficult for wheat allergy. The non-inflammatory intolerances to carbohydrates, mainly lactose and FODMAPs (fermentable oligi-, di-, monosaccharides and polyols), which cause bloating or diarrhoea, can usually be excluded clinically or by simple tests. Recent studies and experimental data strongly indicate that NCWS exists in a s…

Typy kryminalistycznej analizy informacji
2022
Kryminalistyczna analiza informacji jest stosunkowo młodą, choć dynamicznie rozwijającą się dziedziną, wpływającą istotnie na proces wykrywczy oraz proces dowodzenia sądowego. Za najbardziej upowszechnioną na gruncie praktyki śledczej uznać można analizę kryminalną, jednak w literaturze wyróżnia się również analizę wywiadowczą oraz analizę dowodową, które nie mają jeszcze ugruntowanej pozycji. Ponadto, dodatkowym problemem jest brak jednolitego aparatu pojęciowego związanego z kryminalistyczną analizą informacji. Celem tego artykułu jest zaznajomienie Czytelnika z istotą poszczególnych typów analizy informacji oraz wyjaśnienie najistotniejszych pojęć na podstawie współczesnego dorobku nauki…

Guided collaboration and computers: Some of its effects on learning outcome
2004
The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of different treatments on learning outcome, into a collaborative learning context. It was used a factorial design, consisting of two factors, each one with two categories. The first factor was to give students specific roles to play to guide the kinds of interactions and activities that students engage in, versus to allow students to make their own decisions about when and how to use the teacher instructions. The second one was to develop a simple hypertext, versus to write an extended essay. It was found that the factor 'specific roles' favored the learning outcome, whereas the factor 'hypertext development' was not statistically sig…
