Leishmaniasis in travelers: A literature review.
2014
Leishmaniasis is a vector-borne protozoan infection whose clinical spectrum ranges from asymptomatic infection to fatal visceral leishmaniasis. Over the last decades, an increase in imported leishmaniasis cases in developed, non-endemic countries, have been pointed-out from a review of the international literature. Among the possible causes are increasing international tourism, influx of immigrants from endemic regions and military operations. The main area for the acquisition of cutaneous leishmaniasis, especially for adventure travelers on long-term trips in highly-endemic forested areas, is represented from South America, whereas popular Mediterranean destinations are emerging as the mai…
Influence of operator’s experience on the shaping and centering ability of WaveOne single-file system
2015
Aim. The aim of this study was to assess the influence of operator experience on the centering ability of WaveOne reciprocating system on S-shape simulated root canals. Methods. Forty S-shaped canals in resin blocks were assigned in two groups (n=20 for each group). Groups 1 was shaped by an expert operator, postgraduate in endodontics with more of ten years experience, while a not expert operator, a student in the last year of study, with poor endodontic experience performed shaping in Groups 2. A first survey of canals has been made with K-file 10 to assess the working length (WL), after that the glide path was achieved with PathFile 1, 2, and 3 (Dentsply Maillefer) at the WL. Subsequentl…
Influència de la curvatura del conducte radicular i del moviment en la fatiga cíclica dels instruments de sistemes de llima única
2015
L’objectiu de l’estudi ha sigut avaluar la resistència a la fatiga cíclica de quatres sistemes de llima única en conductes corbats, estudiar la influència del moviment i de l’àrea de la secció transversal. Metodologia. S’utilitzaren un total de 240 llimes noves de 4 sistemes de llima única amb un diàmetre a la punta de 0,25mm: 60 llimes WaveOne Primary (Densply-Maillefer), 60 llimes Reciproc R25 (VDW), 60 llimes OneShape (Micro-Mega) i 60 llimes F360 #25 (Komet Brasseler); que foren dividides de manera aleatòria en 24 grups (ni=10). Prèviament a l’estudi tots els instruments van ser inspeccionats amb un lupa estereomicroscòpica de 16 augments, per a anàlisi morfològic i per descartar qualse…
Luontoarvot ja ihmisvaikutukset soiden arvottamisessa : esimerkkinä Keski-Suomen suot
2016
Soita arvotetaan esimerkiksi maankäytön suunnittelua varten. Suunnittelua ohjaavat erilaiset ohjelmat ja tavoitteet, joita seuraamalla pyritään vähentämään turhia selvityksiä. Valtakunnalliset alueidenkäyttötavoitteet luovat päällimmäiset ohjeistukset maakuntakaavoille, joiden avulla voidaan ennalta ohjata käyttöalueita ja suojelualueita. Suunnittelua varten soita pyritään arvottamaan niiden luontotyypin ja luonnontilaisuuden perusteella. Arvottamisessa ihmisen vaikutus näkyy soilla erityisesti niiden luonnontilaisuudessa. Tutkimuksen mukaan suurimpina vaikuttajina luonnontilaisuuteen nähdään olevan mm. metsätalouden, turvetuotannon, suojelualueiden ja sijainnin. Suon muutosherkkyyteen vaik…
Molecularly imprinted polymer solid phase extraction of fungicides from wine samples
2014
In order to preconcentrate iprodione fungicide in white wine samples, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) specific for iprodione were synthesized using two polymerization approaches: precipitation (MIPp) and bulk polymerization (MIPb). A comparison of the performance of the MIPs and the corresponding non-imprinted polymers (NIPs) was conducted in batch studies. In this case, the MIPp revealed better recognition properties toward iprodione in wine samples than the MIPb. The MIPp and MIPb were then used as sorbents on solid phase extraction cartridges (MISPEp and MISPEb consecutively) in order to pre-concentrate iprodione from white wine samples. The optimization of the MISPE elution step w…
A review of Devenir Soi by Jacques Attali: through the lenses of liberalism and Buddhism
2015
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to reinterpret Attali’s worldview through the lenses of liberalism and Buddhism by mobilizing the relevant literature, beyond the mere book review. This paper is an essay based on the book “Devenir Soi” by Jacques Attali, published in France in 2014. These analytical grids were chosen, because freedom and self-realization are two themes that pervade the book. Design/methodology/approach – After presenting the book structure, the objective and the methodological approach, we uncover Attali’s interrogation, namely how to free oneself from the omnipresence of evil, the withering away of the State and growing xenophobic populist self-entitlement. We make …
Polar Localization of a Tripartite Complex of the Two-Component System DcuS/DcuR and the Transporter DctA in Escherichia coli Depends on the Sensor K…
2014
The C4-dicarboxylate responsive sensor kinase DcuS of the DcuS/DcuR two-component system of E. coli is membrane-bound and reveals a polar localization. DcuS uses the C4-dicarboxylate transporter DctA as a co-regulator forming DctA/DcuS sensor units. Here it is shown by fluorescence microscopy with fusion proteins that DcuS has a dynamic and preferential polar localization, even at very low expression levels. Single assemblies of DcuS had high mobility in fast time lapse acquisitions, and fast recovery in FRAP experiments, excluding polar accumulation due to aggregation. DctA and DcuR fused to derivatives of the YFP protein are dispersed in the membrane or in the cytosol, respectively, when …
A New Universal-Environment Adaptive Multi-processor Scheduler for Autonomous Cyber-Physical System
2012
International audience; Robot, spaceship and other applications that can be called autonomous Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are all smart embedded systems, which usually run in open environment by themselves with inhered intelligent capabilities. Besides the application intelligence, the researches of adaptive platform for such systems have also become topics recently. Based on the analysis of current work, a new environment adaptive scheduler (¦Á-S) for multiprocessor platform of a cyber-physical system is proposed in this article. And then, its related structures, models, and reasoning methods are studied deeply. Different from the existing ones, ¦Á-S can schedule all tasks according to th…
Hybrid multiple diffraction in semipolar wurtzite materials: (\bf 01\overline{1}2)-oriented ZnMgO/ZnO heterostructures as an illustration
2017
X-ray diffraction has been widely used to characterize the structural properties (strain and structural quality) of semiconductor heterostructures. This work employs hybrid multiple diffraction to analyzer-oriented Zn1−xMgxO layers grown by molecular beam epitaxy on ZnO substrates. In such a low-symmetry material system, additional features appear in symmetric reflection scans, which are described as arising from hybrid multiple diffraction. First, the Bragg conditions necessary for these high-order processes to occur are introduced and applied to explain all the observed satellite reflections, identify the planes that contribute and computea priorithe angles at which they are observed. Fur…
