Improving accuracy of the intermediate splint in substantial intermaxillary sagittal discrepancies using an extra anterior anchorage point: technical…
2021
Background To describe a technical feature that increases the stability of the intermediate splint in patients where bimaxillary surgery with great maxillary/mandibular advancements are planned. Material and Methods Prospective evaluation of the intermediate splint dental vertical penetration in patients undergoing bimaxillary surgery where great sagittal discrepancy occur in the anterior sector between the upper and lower jaws when the intermediate splint is placed by adding an extra intermaxillary fixation (IMF) screw (2x9 mm) placed between the central incisors of the maxilla and fixed to the most anterior aspect of the intermediate splint following the direction of the sagittal maxillo-…
Évaluation des activités de rééducation GAPP à l'école primaire
1991
International audience; Les GAPP (groupes d'aide psycho-pédagogique, transformés récemment en réseaux d'aide) ont été créés vers 1970 pour répondre aux besoins temporaires d'élèves en difficulté à l'école primaire. Cette structure a été peu évaluée et le texte propose une évaluation d'une part du fonctionnement des services et de l'allocation des moyens alloués aux différents GAPP, d'autre part, des effets des rééducations entreprises sur les acquisitions et carrières scolaires des élèves.Les résultats montrent des aléas importants dans l'allocation des moyens, ainsi qu'une très substantielle variété dans le fonctionnement des différents GAPP. Concernant les effets, et pour ce qui concerne …

A Prospective Open‐Label Observational Study of a Buffered Soluble 70 mg Alendronate Effervescent Tablet on Upper Gastrointestinal Safety and Medicat…
2021
Upper gastrointestinal (GI) side effects are a main reason for discontinuing bisphosphonate treatment, an important therapeutic option for osteoporosis patients. Consequently, the development of novel formulations with improved tolerability is warranted. In this multicenter prospective, observational, postauthorization safety study conducted in Italy and Spain, postmenopausal women (PMW) with osteoporosis (naïve to bisphosphonates) were treated weekly with a buffered soluble alendronate 70 mg effervescent (ALN-EFF) tablet (Binosto®) and followed for 12 ± 3 months. Information was collected on adverse events (AEs), medication errors, persistence, and compliance using the Morisky-Green questi…
[Role of visual analysis of first-pass contrast-enhanced MRI in reperfused myocardial infarction].
2006
The aim of this work is to evaluate the relationship between improvement of regional myocardial function and visual analysis of contrast-enhanced (CE) MRI in patients after acute myocardial infarction. MRI was performed on 19 patients 1 and 11 weeks after a reperfused acute myocardial infarction. Perfusion data (first-pass images [FPI] and delayed CE images) were acquired after an intravenous bolus of gadolinium-DTPA and visually analyzed using a 17 segment model. Each segment was then classified in 3 groups, according to the presence or absence of FPI and CE patterns at baseline study: group 0: normal-appearing segments; group 1: segments with delayed hyper-enhancement but no early hypo-en…
Gamificación en la evaluación del aprendizaje: valoración del uso de Kahoot!
2018
En estas líneas se presenta un trabajo descriptivo, de índole cualitativa, con el que se pretende analizar la valoración que un grupo de estudiantes del Grado de Magisterio de la Universitat de València realizan de la utilización de la aplicación Kahoot!, en las clases de segundo curso de la asignatura de Necesidades Educativas Especiales. Esta herramienta fue utilizada de forma espontánea por el alumnado para evaluar a sus compañeros y compañeras tras las exposiciones de los trabajos grupales. De los 30 alumnos y alumnas matriculados, tan sólo 18 acudían regularmente a las clases y 11 completaron todo el curso. Por tanto, los participantes en el estudio fueron 11 alumnos del grupo 21R, 4 c…
Imaging of Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors: From Diagnosis to Evaluation of Therapeutic Response
2016
Once considered an obscure tumor entity with poor prognosis, gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are nowadays recognized as the most common mesenchymal tumors of the alimentary tract. GISTs differ from other mesenchymal neoplasms at pathology since 90% of them exhibit strong immunohistochemical staining for KIT, a tyrosinase kinase growth factor receptor. In the early 2000s, the ability of imatinib mesylate, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, to inhibit KIT established a new paradigm for cancer treatment. A reduction in lesion size may not be observed or may appear many months after therapy; thus, tumor response criteria alternative to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors were dev…
Voltage gradient electrophoresis of nucleic acids on agarose gels.
1993
A very simple method is described which allows the separation of DNA molecules in a wide molecular weight range (from 0.6 to about 30 kb) in the same electrophoresis agarose gel. This is based on the achievement of a voltage gradient through a simple device consisting of a Plexiglas plate placed slantwise with respect to the gel surface plane, submerged in the electrophoretic running buffer. Further applications of our system are also described.
Quantitative RT-PCR measurement of human cytochrome P-450s: application to drug induction studies.
2000
A quantitative RT-PCR assay has been developed that is able to measure the mRNA content of the major human CYPs (1A1, 1A2, 2A6, 2B6, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, 2E1, 3A4, and 3A5). The technique is highly specific, reproducible, rapid, and sensitive enough to quantitate low and high abundant mRNAs. The PCR primers were selected to specifically match each CYP mRNA, to have a very close annealing temperature, and to render PCR products of similar sizes. The PCR conditions were designed to allow the simultaneous measurement of the various human liver CYPs in a single run. To achieve precise and reproducible quantitation of each cytochrome mRNA, a external standard (luciferase mRNA) is added to the probes …
Semi-automatic quantitative RT-PCR to measure CYP induction by drugs in human hepatocytes
2003
An assay has been developed for the quantitative measurement of CYP mRNA content of the major human isoforms (1A1, 1A2, 2A6, 2B6, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, 2E1, 3A4 and 3A5) in human hepatocytes. The method is based on the conversion of mRNAs into their corresponding cDNAs, followed by PCR amplification using appropriate primers. Making use of appropriate internal and external standards it is possible to estimate changes in CYP mRNA content of hepatocytes. The technique has been standardised to run semi-automatically. This procedure can be used to assess the CYP induction potential of new pharmaceuticals at a pre-clinical stage of development. To this aim, human hepatocytes obtained from functional l…
