Evidence and witness of a child victim of sexual abuse in Italian penal process.
2008
A cross-sectional study on smartphone uses among pregnant women attending childbirth classes in the Metropolitan Area of Palermo, Italy: The Stop-Pho…
2022
Background: Prevalence of mobile device addiction has increased over the years; both women and men have assimilated the mobile phone as a central component of their personal existence: integrating it into their lifestyle or becoming so dependent on it that life without it has become unimaginable. Smartphones generate radio-frequency electromagnetic fields. While short-term exposure in adults was considered quite safe, effects of long-term exposure or exposure during pregnancy on fetuses or during breastfeeding on newborns are not well studied yet. The objective of the present study was to investigate the prevalence and usage characteristics of smartphones among a sample of pregnant women, a…
Phenazine antibiotics produced by fluorescent pseudomonads contribute to natural soil suppressiveness to Fusarium wilt
2009
Natural disease-suppressive soils provide an untapped resource for the discovery of novel beneficial microorganisms and traits. For most suppressive soils, however, the consortia of microorganisms and mechanisms involved in pathogen control are unknown. To date, soil suppressiveness to Fusarium wilt disease has been ascribed to carbon and iron competition between pathogenic Fusarium oxysporum and resident non-pathogenic F. oxysporum and fluorescent pseudomonads. In this study, the role of bacterial antibiosis in Fusarium wilt suppressiveness was assessed by comparing the densities, diversity and activity of fluorescent Pseudomonas species producing 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol (DAPG) (phlD+) …
Percutaneous Coronary Revascularization for Chronic Total Occlusions A Novel Predictive Score of Technical Failure Using Advanced Technologies
2016
Objectives The aims of this study were to describe the 10-year experience of a single operator dedicated to chronic total occlusion (CTO) and to establish a model for predicting technical failure. Background During the last decade, the interest in percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) of chronic total occlusions (CTOs) has increased, allowing the improvement of success rate. Methods One thousand nineteen patients with CTO underwent 1,073 CTO procedures performed by a single CTO-dedicated operator. The study population was subdivided into 2 groups by time period: period 1 (January 2005 to December 2009, n = 378) and period 2 (January 2010 to December 2014, n = 641). Observations were ra…
Psychometric properties of the Cyber-Violence Scale in Adolescent Couples (Cib-VPA)
2018
Resumen La utilización que los adolescentes hacen de las redes sociales, móviles e internet, para ejercer violencia hacia la pareja resulta preocupante. Por esta razón, es necesario disponer de instrumentos fiables, específicos para población adolescente y que permitan evaluar tanto situaciones de acoso como de victimización. El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar las propiedades psicométricas de la Escala de Ciber-violencia en Parejas Adolescentes (Cib-VPA). Esta escala consta de dos subescalas, ciberacoso perpetrado y cibervictimización, con 10 ítems cada una relativos a conductas agresivas y de control que pueden ser perpetradas o sufridas a través de redes sociales en parejas adolesce…
¿Quién decide qué y cómo? el conflicto en torno a la participación ciudadana en el contexto del desarrollo de la iniciativa urbana: Cuenca-San Antón …
2018
This article describes the main results of an ethnographic study on citizen participation carried out in the context of the development of the Urban Initiative (2007-2015): Cuenca-Barrio de San Antón. Managed by the City Council of Cuenca and financed by the European Regional Development Funds (FEDER) under the Ministry of Economy and Finance at the Government of Spain The results of the research show how in the context of the application of neoliberal policies, citizen participation becomes the trigger for new conflicts between institutions and citizens. In this sense, it is worth noting how, in practice, institutions in their capacity as experts and not willing to dis-empower themselves, …
Le combat de Victor Schoelcher contre la légalité de l'esclavage : l'abolition de 1848
2009
How has the French State been able to maintain slavery for more than fifty years after the Déclaration des droits de l'homme et du citoyen of 1789? The slave was considered, in a legal scope, not as a person but as a « movable », he was considered as an object that could be bought, sold, mutilated and tortured! Abolished for the first time in 1794, reinstated in 1802 by Napoleon Bonaparte, slavery would definitively disappear in France only in 1848, thanks to Victor Schoelcher's (1804-1893) decisive action. This great humanist, by a tireless fight, managed to impose an immediate abolition – and not a progressive one as in Britain – showing that if this institution was certainly legal, it wa…
Victor Schoelcher, abolitionniste et républicain : approche juridique et politique de l'oeuvre d'un fondateur de la République
2000
The aim of this judicial and political analysis is to reveal Victor Schoelcher's decisive influence in the fight for equal rights and for the republic, in the French mainland as well as in its colonies. His well known fight against slavery was just a part of his humanist defense of the republican principles : Liberty, Equality, Fraternity. Schoelcher truly was a founder of the republic, taking part in the barricade insurrections against the 1851 coup and fighting against any kind of slavery or absolutism. His work addressed many aspects of our society, among which : - Slavery and the colonies (legal status of slaves, emancipated slaves and of the colonies) - Rights and liberties of men and …
The Black Mediterranean: A View from Sicily
2021
While Italy has recently experienced nationalist drives, Sicily and in particular the City of Palermo, one of the major ports of refuge for countless migrants arriving in Europe from the African shores, has distinguished itself as an experimental site where to rethink and challenge notions of residence, mobility, citizenship and belonging. Through a series of cultural initiatives, Palermo has become a hub for frontline artists, writers, intellectuals, and activists who have gathered to explore the historically and contemporary ways in which black voices have been silenced and black bodies have been ambiguously imagined in Western-dominated global culture. Investigating these questions is fu…
Saldus ievērojamākie kultūrvēsturiskie objekti
2019
Pētījuma temats ir “Saldus ievērojamākie kultūrvēsturiskie objekti”. Pētījuma galvenā problēma ir apkopotas informācijas trūkums par Saldus brīvprātīgo ugunsdzēsēju biedrību, Saldus Kalnsētas parku un Saldus Sv. Jāņa evaņģēliski luterisko baznīcu dažādās atmiņas informācijas institūcijās kā Saldus pilsētas bibliotēka, Jaņa Rozentāla Saldus vēstures un mākslas muzejs un citās iestādēs. Bakalaura darba mērķis ir izpētīt pētāmo objektu attīstību. Padziļinātāk izpētīt šo objektu veidošanās laiku, raksturojumu, apkārtnes raksturojumu, bijušos un tagadējos īpašniekus un svarīgākos notikumus. Pētījumā kā galvenās datu vākšanas metodes tika izmantotas dokumentu analīze un daļēji strukturēta intervi…
