Collaboration interprofessionnelle et émergence de la confiance en management hospitalier
2022
Patient support requires interprofessional collaboration that is complex to implement in hospital organizations. According to the literature, this is closely linked to the emergence of trust. This emergence depends on organizational factors that are only partially identified in the literature, the links established remaining minimal and imprecise. We propose in this qualitative study carried out with 32 agents of the public hospital service to specify and complete these links. In particular, this work opens up new perspectives regarding organizational factors such as connectivity, values, common goals, etc. The identified factors are declined through 2 perspectives directly transposable in …
SURFACE AND MECHANISTIC PROPERTIES OF RECYCLED BITUMINOUS MIXTURES
2019
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Problem Often, when the characteristics of a bituminous mixture are analised, there are major differences between in-lab and in-situ results. This is due to the fact that the procedures and techniques implemented during the design phase (in lab) may be different from those used on site. Then, is very important to be able to predict the main properties of a mixture particularly when innovative materials are used. For example, when crumb rubber is used, phisical and volumetric properties of mixes may change over time, in particular due to the swelling phenomenon that it alters different properties of the mixture (e.g., viscosity). This study aims to investigate the main aspe…
NFIB Haploinsufficiency Is Associated with Intellectual Disability and Macrocephaly
2018
The nuclear factor I (NFI) family of transcription factors play an important role in normal development of multiple organs. Three NFI family members are highly expressed in the brain, and deletions or sequence variants in two of these, NFIA and NFIX, have been associated with intellectual disability (ID) and brain malformations. NFIB, however, has not previously been implicated in human disease. Here, we present a cohort of 18 individuals with mild ID and behavioral issues who are haploinsufficient for NFIB. Ten individuals harbored overlapping microdeletions of the chromosomal 9p23-p22.2 region, ranging in size from 225 kb to 4.3 Mb. Five additional subjects had point sequence variations c…
Transmission of HIV Drug Resistance and the Predicted Effect on Current First-line Regimens in Europe
2016
Transmitted human immunodeficiency virus drug resistance in Europe is stable at around 8%. The impact of baseline mutation patterns on susceptibility to antiretroviral drugs should be addressed using clinical guidelines. The impact on baseline susceptibility is largest for nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors.
Il sostegno e il miglioramento delle coltivazioni sub-tropicali in Sicilia traggono vantaggio dallo studio e dalla promozione delle loro proprietà nu…

Negli ultimi decenni si è assistito a un continuo progresso scientifico in ambito nutrizionale che ha trovato le sue basi da una parte nella scoperta dei principi nutritivi contenuti negli alimenti e dall'altra nell'elaborazione di precise linee guida a larga diffusione. Un'inadeguata alimentazione, infatti, oltre a incidere sul benessere psicofisico, rappresenta uno dei principali fattori di rischio per l'insorgenza di numerose patologie croniche. Secondo l'Organizzazione Mondiale della Sanità (OMS) il rischio di insorgenza di malattie cardiovascolari, metaboliche e di alcuni tumori si abbassa considerevolmente grazie a una corretta e sana alimentazione.
CHARACTERIZATION OF RUBBERIZED ASPHALT FOR RAILWAY SUB-BALLASTS
Tesi di dottorato sotto la supervisione del professore Gaetano di Mino del Dipartimento di Ingegneria Civile di Palermo), come borsista Marie-Curie all'interno del progetto SUPRITN 2013/2017. Il mio lavoro e la linea della ricerca riguarda i conglomerati bituminosi con granulato di gomma per lo strato di sub-ballast nelle linee ferroviarie. L’attività di ricerca comprende il mix-design dell’asfalto con aggiunta di gomma, la caratterizzazione e le prestazioni per la ferrovia in termini di comportamento meccanico e lo smorzamento delle vibrazioni. In particolare con l’avvento dell’alta velocità, diversi studi hanno evidenziato ottime caratteristiche fisico-meccaniche per ciò che riguarda il c…
A (des)confiança dos jornalistas espanhóis às instituições públicas a partir do estudo de fatores organizacionais
2016
Existe un creciente interés en la bibliografía científica por conocer las prácticas y rutinas de las y los periodistas en distintos contextos (Hanitzsch et al., 2011). La confianza que tienen estos profesionales en las instituciones públicas es una variable clave para comprender su cultura profesional (Hanitzsch & Berganza, 2012; Brants, de Vreese, Möller & van Praag, 2010; van Dalen, Albæk & de Vreese, 2011), así como el interés y la confianza de la ciudadanía en la política (Cappella & Jamieson, 1997). Este estudio pretende conocer el nivel de confianza de las y los periodistas españoles en las instituciones públicas y verificar si el tipo, alcance y propiedad del medio influyen en dichos…
Estimate the mean electricity consumption curve by survey and take auxiliary information into account
2012
In this thesis, we are interested in estimating the mean electricity consumption curve. Since the study variable is functional and storage capacities are limited or transmission cost are high survey sampling techniques are interesting alternatives to signal compression techniques. We extend, in this functional framework, estimation methods that take into account available auxiliary information and that can improve the accuracy of the Horvitz-Thompson estimator of the mean trajectory. The first approach uses the auxiliary information at the estimation stage, the mean curve is estimated using model-assisted estimators with functional linear regression models. The second method involves the au…
Propiedades psicométricas de la Escala de Ansiedad y Depresión de Goldberg (GADS) en población ecuatoriana
2019
Abstract The objective of the present study was to analyze the psychometric properties of validity and reliability of the Goldberg Anxiety and Depression Scale (GADS) in Ecuadorian university students, since a cultural validation of the instrument has not been found in Ecuador. The study population consisted of a non-probabilistic sample of 600 participants (59.6% women and 40.4% men, M = 21 years, SD = 2.82). The factorial structure was examined with the method of extraction by Parallel Analysis of unweighted least squares (ULS) and of prominent rotation. In both, internal consistency was evaluated by Cronbach's alpha coefficients and composite reliability. Like the original version, both …
