Polimorfismos en el gen de la apolipoproteína E y riesgo de hipercolesterolemia: un estudio de casos y controles en una población laboral de Valencia
2000
Fundamento El gen de la apolipoproteina E (apoE) presenta tres variantes comunes (alelos ɛ2, ɛ3, ɛ4), cuya frecuencia alelica y asociacion con los lipidos plasmaticos varia segun las poblaciones. Nuestro objetivo fue estimar la asociacion entre estas variantes geneticas y el riesgo de hipercolesterolemia en la poblacion mediterranea espanola. Pacientes y metodo Se ha realizado un estudio de casos y controles en una poblacion laboral de Valencia. Se identificaron 330 casos (148 varones y 182 mujeres) con hipercolesterolemia moderada (colesterol total > 200 mg/dl o con tratamiento hipolipemiante) y un intervalo de edad entre 20–60 anos. Se seleccionaron 330 controles normocolesterolemicos apa…
A new method to evaluate the influence of the glenosphere positioning on stability and range of motion of a reverse shoulder prosthesis
2019
Abstract Purpose Shoulder instability and reduced range of motion are two common complications of a total reverse shoulder arthroplasty. In this work, a new approach is proposed to estimate how the glenoid component positioning can influence the stability and the range of motion of a reverse shoulder prosthesis. Materials and methods A standard reverse shoulder prosthesis has been analysed. To perform virtual simulation of the shoulder-prosthesis assembly, all the components of the prosthesis have been acquired via a 3D laser scanner and the solid models of the shoulder bones have been reconstructed through CT images. Loads on the shoulder joint have been estimated using anatomical models d…
A Real time locating system for local fleet management
2006
Abstract Local locating systems are necessary where a big number of units are handled. In this case, we propose a management system for parking spaces for vehicles that are distributed among eight different-sized lots on a 1.8 million square meter premises. In order to quickly locate each particular vehicle in this area, a new real time location system (RTLS) has been successfully installed. The vehicle location system Moby-R automatically monitors every vehicle movement and tracks its current parked position. All the vehicles are given a data carrier which is attached to the inside rear-view mirror with a special hanger, precisely locating the vehicle within approximately five meters
Partial trisomy 9p and partial monosomy 6q resulting from paternal reciprocal translocation 6;9: Overlapping manifestations of characteristic phenoty…
2003
We report on a female infant with partial trisomy 9p (p13.3→pter) and monosomy 6q (q26-qter) resulting from a paternal balanced reciprocal traslocation t(6;9)(q26;p13.3). Both trisomy 9p and monosomy 6q are recognized phenotypes with characteristic patterns of anomalies. This patient is the first reported with a partial deletion 6q and a partial duplication 9p resulting in an overlapping phenotype including intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR), craniofacial and skeletal abnormalities, congenital heart defect, hypotonia and developmental delay. We present the clinical follow-up of this patient from birth to age 4 years: the phenotypic manifestations of trisomy 9p syndrome are mildly expres…
Dataset of a globally relevant stock of soil nitrogen in the Yedoma permafrost domain
2022
This dataset merges nitrogen data from the Yedoma domain. It includes numerous fieldwork campaigns, which take place since 1998. In total 467 samples from the active layer (seasonally thawed layer), 175 samples from perennially frozen Holocene cover deposits, 479 samples from thermokarst deposits in drained thermokarst, 175 in-situ thawed, diagenetically (anaerobic microbial decomposition possible during unfrozen phase) altered Yedoma deposits (called Taberite), and 917 samples from frozen Yedoma deposits are included. Moreover it includes a NH4+ and NO3- quantification basing on of 658 samples, including 378 data points for NH4+ (active layer, 93; Holocene cover, 108; thermokarst sediment,…
Language Anxiety Levels in Urban, Suburban and Rural Secondary Grammar School Students
2012
The main purpose of this study is to investigate language anxiety levels in Polish secondary grammar school students from urban (N = 223), suburban (N = 48) and rural areas (N = 122). The results show that rural students suffer from significantly higher levels of anxiety over the length of their secondary school education when compared to their urban and suburban peers. These results confirm the findings in the literature of the field, further demonstrating that social and educational deprivation of rural adolescents continues to prevail. However, this study also shows that the language anxiety levels of all the study participants significantly decrease towards the end of their secondary sc…
Residential location and youth unemployment: The economic geography of school-to-work transitions
2003
In response to increased international policy attention to youth unemployment this study investigates post-secondary school transitions of school leavers. Multinomial logit models are estimated for male and female German youth. The models control for individual, parent, and household characteristics, for those of the youth’s region of residence and local labor markets. The findings suggest that immigrant youth has particularly low participation rates in continued education, and that youth unemployment is centered in high unemployment states and metropolitan areas. More generous academic benefit policies seem to be correlated with increased academic enrollment, and men’s transitions to the m…
The Wheres and Hows of Residential Choice
2016
International audience; A wide variety of choices and decisions are open to individuals when looking for a place to live: a flat or a house, renting or buying depending on one’s resources and plans; living in a city centre to enjoy its buzz, or in a certain district to have a school close by, or on the outskirts in a more village-like setting; and in this last case, how far from urban centres and major access routes? What ultimately are individuals’ preferences? All these questions presuppose looking at how they perceive and evaluate the urban environment so as to better grasp what it is that leads to residential satisfaction. However, it is not the evaluation or satisfaction in itself that…
