Clinical justification of dental radiology in adult patients: A review of the literature
2007
Although the radiological doses used by dentists are low individually, patients are often exposured to many repeat dental radiographic examinations. The ‘routine’ use of dental radiography, such as screening of all patients using dental panoramic radiography (DPRs) or a random decision to take a dental radiograph, will inevitable lead to unnecessary patient exposure. The use of Radiographic Referral Criteria has now become a legal requirement for all practitioners following the adoption of European Legislation. All exposures to x-rays should be clinically justified and each exposure should be expected to give the patient a positive net benefit. Recently the European Commission has published…
Terroryzm islamski a bezpieczeństwo globalne
2016
Gwałtowny wzrost liczby zamachów terrorystycznych na przełomie XX i XXI w. w wymiarze międzynarodowych wyraźnie wskazuje na zwiększenie aktywności ugrupowań terrorystycznych o charakterze religijnym, który kojarzony był z ugrupowaniami terrorystycznymi o rodowodzie islamskim. Aktywność tych ugrupowań była ukierunkowana na przeprowadzanie różnego typu ataków w wielu częściach świata, co w naturalny sposób odczytane było jako prowadzenie działań terrorystycznych w skali globalnej. Z jednej strony ataki terrorystyczne powodowały liczne ofiary wśród ludności cywilnej oraz ogromne straty materialne, z drugiej fundamentaliści islamscy osiągnęli inny bardzo ważny dla nich cel propagandowy – wywoła…
Residential mobility as a cause and consequence of vulnerability among the elderly in Reunion Island
2021
Sur la base d’une revue de la littérature et d’un corpus de quatorze entretiens semi-directifs, l’objet de cet article est de mettre en relation les facteurs de vulnérabilité du territoire réunionnais, ceux des personnes âgées de ce département français d’outre-mer ainsi que ceux éventuellement issus d’une mobilité résidentielle. Pour cela, une analyse macroscopique et une analyse individuelle sont proposées autour des facteurs de vulnérabilité dans les registres économiques, sanitaires, sociaux et environnementaux. Ces deux niveaux d’analyse indiquent la nécessité d’une approche territoriale fine pour mieux comprendre la vulnérabilité des personnes âgées et ses liens avec la mobilité résid…

The Effect of Islamic Work Ethics on Work Outcomes
2010
This study was conducted to investigate the effect of Islamic work ethic on work outcomes (job satisfaction, organizational commitment and turnover intention). The study used a sample of 49 employees from 10 institutions of Islamic microfinance in Demak regency, Central Java Indonesia. The empirical testing indicates that Islamic work ethic has positive effects on both job satisfaction and organizational commitment; whereas there is no significant evidence of the effect of Islamic work ethic on turnover intention. Implication, limitation and suggestion for future research are discussed.
Assessing violence in the family : social work, courts, and discourses
2016
This article investigates social work, decision-making, and gendered violence in the family in Finland. Discourses on gendered violence in the family are compared in custody disputes, handled in district courts, and out-of-home placements, dealt with in administrative courts. Both data sets altogether include 237 cases. Proceedings in both courts share a legislative emphasis on the ‘child’s best interest’ principle, and both contexts also rely on documentation provided by social workers. The examination of the two studies is based on discourse analysis, through which we have identified hegemonic discourses that are active in both courts. The study found that violence was often disregarded o…
Spunti critici sull’aggiornamento della normativa europea in tema di qualità dell’aria
2022
This paper aims at presenting an argument in favour of the need for a prompt update of the European legislation on air quality, by taking its cue from the current situation in Italy. The paper starts by providing a definition of outdoor air pollution and by referring to the most influential Italian scientific studies on the main health risks connected. The perspective then shifts to the analysis of the relevant legislation at both European and national level in an attempt to systematically recompose the complex framework of plans and regulations adopted for the containment and prevention of outdoor pollution. In this framework, the analysis of the three infringement procedures opened agains…
Validez y eficacia de los pactos matrimoniales
2018
Los pactos matrimoniales es un tema de actualidad en nuestra sociedad. En este trabajo se ha pretendido abordar el tema de la validez y eficacia de los pactos matrimoniales y como encajan en nuestro ordenamiento jurídico. Por una parte tenemos que tener en cuenta la autonomía de la voluntad de las partes, pero se debe conjugar con el derecho de ius cogens y con los derechos inalienables tan presentes tradicionalmente en el derecho de familia. Es un tema además eminentemente práctico que trata de resolver evitar futuros conflictos y ahorrar tiempo y gastos a las partes, lo cual se conseguirá en el momento que se disponga de una regulación clara y precisa sobre la materia. Actualmente no hay …
Combustion behavior of black liquors : droplet swelling and influence of liquor composition
2017
The combustion of black liquor (BL) in a recovery boiler is a central process in a kraft pulp mill for recovering the cooking chemicals and for producing heat and power. This work explored the most important combustion behavior of BL, the swelling of in-flight droplets, from the viewpoint of liquor composition. It also studied the combustion behavior of BL droplets obtained from two biorefining subprocesses (carbonation and hot-water pretreatment, HWP) and sulfur-free pulping alternatives (soda-anthraquinone (AQ) and oxygen-alkali pulping). The formation of a plastic state essential for the swelling of BL droplet was found to result from the melting of an array of carbohydrate-derived aliph…
"The Dutch Legacy in the Indonesian Parliament"
2013
th century; Parliamentary procedure Abstract The Indonesian parliament, the DPR, today presents its similar characteristics as the Dutch parliament in the 19 th century. The historical trajectories show that when establishing the core of the parliament institution, the founding fathers copied what the colonial government had been practiced, and maintained during the authoritarian regime in Indonesia, accordingly the Dutch legacy lingered. Consequently, in the wave of democratic era, after the fall of the authoritarian president, the same institution should have adapted itself into a more democratic institution, but remained weak due to its outdated characteristics. This paper shows the hist…
