Solidaridad y universalidad de los derechos
2019
Esta tesis aborda el principio de indivisibilidad entre la universalidad de los derechos y los deberes del ser humano apelando a un corolario: el deber de solidaridad. Para ello se analiza el sentido de la noción de solidaridad y la doble tensión en la que se mueve el concepto a través de la dicotomía público/privado y abierto/cerrado que la caracteriza, examinándose las dos dimensiones mutuamente condicionantes que lo componen: la ético-política y la jurídica. Ello nos permite examinar la problemática que encierra la configuración de la solidaridad como un valor jurídico, fuente de deberes también jurídicos, y ponderar la correspondencia entre dignidad, deberes y derechos. Así, primero se …
bbFISH-ing in the sonication fluid
2019
Abstract By 2030, the annual number of combined total hip and knee arthroplasty is estimated to reach 3.5 to 4 million in the US alone. In the context of a constant increase of the number of primary and revision total hip and knee arthroplasty, an increased risk of complication is expected. Prosthetic joint infections (PJIs) represent major cause of healthcare expenditure and morbidity. PJI still remain the most common and feared arthroplasty complication. A rapid and correct diagnosis of infection is decisive for a correct therapeutical management. In this setting, the Academic Emergency Hospital Sibiu adopted and implemented, with the beginning of September 2016, a new strategy for the di…

Participation in Social Media: Studying Explicit and Implicit Forms of Participation in Communicative Social Networks
2016
The diverse forms of participation in social media raise many methodological and ethical issues that should be acknowledged in research. In this paper, participation in social media is studied by utilising the framework of explicit and implicit participation. The focus is on the communicative and communal aspects of social media. The aim of the paper is to promote the reconsideration of what constitutes participation when online users create connections rather than content. The underlying argument is that research on social media and the development of methods should concentrate more on implicit forms of participation.
Prevalence of aphthous stomatitis in patients with inflammatory bowel disease after the treatment with monoclonal antibodies: a systematic review and…
2022
Currently, the most frequently employed therapies in the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), i.e., Crohn's Disease (CD), Ulcerative Colitis (UC) or unclassified IBD (IBD-U) are monoclonal anti-TNFs and anti-integrin therapies, such as vedolizumab (VDZ). Forty-seven per cent of these patients present extra-intestinal manifestations, the second most prevalent being aphthous stomatitis (AS). The present study aims to investigate which of the two therapies is associated with a lower prevalence of AS after treatment. An electronic search of the MEDLINE (via PubMed), Web of Science, SCOPUS, LILACS and OpenGrey databases was carried out. The criteria used were those described by the PR…
Spatio-temporal Dynamical Analysis of Brain Activity during Mental Fatigue Process
2021
Mental fatigue is a common phenomenon with implicit and multidimensional properties. It brings dynamic changes of functional brain networks. However, the challenging problem of false positives appears when the connectivity is estimated by Electroencephalography (EEG). In this paper, we propose a novel framework based on spatial clustering to explore the sources of mental fatigue and functional activity changes caused by them. To suppress the false positive observations, spatial clustering is implemented in brain networks. The nodes extracted by spatial clustering are registered back to functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) source space to determined the sources of mental fatigue. The…
Postępy w fotowoltanice w Polsce i na świecie = Progress in photovoltaics in Poland and the world
2015
W artykule przedstawiono postęp w zakresie uzyskiwanych sprawności przez ogniwa i moduły fotowoltaiczne (PV) wykonane z różnych materiałów i za pomocą różnych technologii. Zawarto w nim szczegółowe zestawienia tabelaryczne sprawności oraz ich parametrów technicznych. Zwrócono uwagę na nowe obiecujące technologie, które jeszcze nie mają rekordowych sprawności, ale z uwagi na proces ich wytwarzania rokują nadzieje na uzyskanie bardzo dużych sprawności albo tanich wielkopowierzchniowych modułów do komercyjnego zastosowania. Ponadto, omówiono ekonomiczne skutki wdrożenia nowo zawartych zapisów w uchwalonej w lutym 2015 r. Ustawie o Odnawialnych Źródłach Energii (OZE) dla rozwoju rozproszonych i…
Prognostic value of HSP27 in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma: a retrospective analysis of 57 tumours.
2006
Background: The aims of the present study were to assess the prevalence of HSP27 expression in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and to verify whether HSP27 can be considered to be a marker of prognosis in patients with OSCC. Materials and Methods: The immunohistochemical expression of HSP27 was evaluated in 57 OSCC, who received standard treatment and monitoring. After grouping for HSP27 expression, OSCCs were statistically analysed for the variables age, gender, histological grading, TNM, staging and survival rate. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed. Results: HSP27 was found to be reduced in 31 OSCC and was normally expressed in 26 OSCC. The pattern and intensity of HSP…
Informed consent in dentistry and medicine in Spain: Practical considerations and legality.
2021
The healthcare practice of dentistry, as well as medicine, is framed within a legal environment. Patients have the right to know all the information related to any action performed on them and dental or medical doctors are obliged to obtain their patient?s prior written informed consent (IC) before undertaking any healthcare procedures. Here we reviewed the legality and jurisprudence in Spain regarding IC. We also used INFLESZ text readability analysis software to analyse a sample of official Spanish informed consent documents (ICDs) from different surgical and interventional procedures related to dentistry and oral cavity interventions. It is a mistake to confound IC with ICDs. This error …
