Retos de la investigación psicológica en salud mental
2016
The magnitude and impact of mental disorders does not correspond to the resources devoted to research and attention. Although we have made significant progress in their understanding and the efficacy of the psychological treatments, we are still far from an optimal situation. This paper focuses on one of the major issues which we consider fundamental challenges and needs in this area, the increase in research focusing on psychopathology, especially on the mechanisms and processes that explain and maintain mental disorders, as a key point for the design and development of new psychological interventions for the prevention, treatment, and promotion of mental health. The aim is to promote disc…
Wronskian Addition Formula and Darboux-Pöschl-Teller Potentials
2013
For the famous Darboux-Pöschl-Teller equation, we present new wronskian representation both for the potential and the related eigenfunctions. The simplest application of this new formula is the explicit description of dynamics of the DPT potentials and the action of the KdV hierarchy. The key point of the proof is some evaluation formulas for special wronskian determinant.
Speeding up of microstructure reconstruction: II. Application to patterns of poly-dispersed islands
2015
We report a fast, efficient and credible statistical reconstruction of any two-phase patterns of islands of miscellaneous shapes and poly-dispersed in sizes. In the proposed multi-scale approach called a weighted doubly-hybrid, two different pairs of hybrid descriptors are used. As the first pair, we employ entropic quantifiers, while correlation functions are the second pair. Their competition allows considering a wider spectrum of morphological features. Instead of a standard random initial configuration, a synthetic one with the same number of islands as that of the target is created by a cellular automaton. This is the key point for speeding-up of microstructure reconstruction, making u…
Monitoring of the action of drugs in melanoma cells by dynamic laser speckle
2014
Abstract. This work presents the development of a protocol based on the dynamic laser speckle designed tomonitor the reaction of cancer cells of line MEL-RC08 to the application of the drug Colcemid in two differentconcentrations: 0.2 and 0.4 μg∕mL. The protocol was designed using the forward scattering approach with anHe-Ne laser of 632.8 nm illuminating the samples, a control, and two variations of Colcemid, being monitoredalong 8 h. The data were analyzed numerically in the time and in the frequency domain, and the results pre-sented the ability of the technique to monitor the action of the drug, particularly Colcemid (0.4 μg∕mL). © 2014Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers …
On finite soluble groups in which Sylow permutability is a transitive relation
2003
A characterisation of finite soluble groups in which Sylow permutability is a transitive relation by means of subgroup embedding properties enjoyed by all the subgroups is proved in the paper. The key point is an extension of a subnormality criterion due to Wielandt.
Clinical experience with different pegylated interferons: Is there a difference?
2009
Abstract The acute phase of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection represents a key point in the evolution of hepatitis C. The infection either resolves spontaneously, or progresses into chronic disease. However, the asymptomatic nature of acute hepatitis C contributes to difficulties in detection, diagnosis and hence, the assessment of therapy when indicated. Controversies in chronic HCV related to the implications of both selected predictors of treatment outcome and clinical experience with structurally different Peg-IFNs are discussed.
Accretion-ejection connection in the young brown dwarf candidate ISO-ChaI 217*
2014
As the number of observed brown dwarf outflows is growing it is important to investigate how these outflows compare to the well-studied jets from young stellar objects. A key point of comparison is the relationship between outflow and accretion activity and in particular the ratio between the mass outflow and accretion rates (Ṁout/Ṁacc). The brown dwarf candidate ISO-ChaI 217 was discovered by our group, as part of a spectro-astrometric study of brown dwarfs, to be driving an asymmetric outflow with the blue-shifted lobe having a position angle of ~20°. The aim here is to further investigate the properties of ISO-ChaI 217, the morphology and kinematics of its outflow, and to better constrai…
Oscillating ultra-cold neutron spectrometer
2019
The energy spectrum of ultra-cold neutrons (UCN) is very often a key point to determine the systematic effects in precision measurements utilizing UCN. The proposed novel method allows the in-situ measurements of the UCN velocity distribution and its time evolution. In addition, the proposed UCN spectrometer can be a handy diagnostic tool for monitoring the UCN spectrum in critical places in the transport system connecting an UCN source with experiments. In this paper, we present the preliminary results from measurements and simulations using the oscillating UCN spectrometer at the PSI UCN source.
Oilseed treatment by ultrasounds and microwaves to improve oil yield and quality: An overview.
2016
International audience; Efficiency is a key point to ensure the profitability in the production of vegetable oils from oilseeds. To maximize the recovery yields of seed oils, the traditional process involves mechanical expression followed by subsequent chemical extraction using organic solvents (e.g. hexane). Besides health, environmental, and economic related issues to the use of organic solvents, thermal treatment of seeds during conventional oil extraction process inevitably leads to chemical changes (e.g. changes in macronutrients such as protein denaturation/degradation in the meal, oil oxidation, and changes in minor constituents such as fatty acids, sterols, phenolic compounds and to…
Implication of Human Capital in the Development of SMEs through the ICT Adoption
2013
Abstract ICT adoption in SMEs and the attraction of benefits from use of these technologies remains a key point in their development. For an enterprise to take part in the digital economy must have a defined basis for innovative adopting, meaning a premise for the development of ICT infrastructure. Given that firms are not a self-driven machinery, human capital is a major factor of influence in enterprise digitization. Considering this, in this paper will analyze the effects generated by human capital on the level of ICT adoption in SMEs in Romania.
