“At least we have something to discuss over lunch…” The implications for knowledge management when implementing a new library system. A Norwegian exp…
2017
This article investigates how staff and management in Norwegian academic libraries have experienced the implementation of the new library management system Alma. As a new library management system is introduced, the need for learning on demand emerges. An anonymous survey was sent to all academic libraries in Norway, resulting in a total of 626 responses. This article presents the findings from this survey and provides some reflections on how a firm grip on knowledge management could have helped make such a transition easier.
Renowacja zabytkowych organów świdnickiej firmy Schlag & Söhne w kościele parafialnym pw. Wszystkich Świętych w Strzelcach (diecezja świdnicka)
2019
Celem niniejszego artykułu jestudokumentowanie przeprowadzonych w 2018 roku prac konserwatorskich organów kościoła parafialnego w Strzelcach. Instrument ten został wybudowany w 1891 roku przez fabrykę organową Schlag & Söhne ze Świdnicy i oznaczony jaKo opus 343. firmy. Organy posiadają dziewięć głosów podzielonych na dwa manuały i pedał. Unikalnym elementem technicznym instrumentu jest połączenie mechanicznej traktury z wiatrownicami typu skrzyniowego. Remont trwał od maja do lipca 2018 roku. Jego wykonawcą był zakład organmistrzowski Antoniego Szydłowskiego z Mędłowa. Organom przywrócono pełną sprawność techniczną i brzmieniową. Dokonano pełnej rewaloryzacji wszystkich elementów instrumen…
Tout savoir sur le treat and extend : organisation et optimisation. Les Cahiers d'Ophtalmologie
2019
La dégénérescence maculaire liée à l’âge (DMLA) est actuellement la première cause de handicap visuel dans les pays développés chez les plus de 50 ans. Elle touche en effet environ 8% de la population française et plus de 25% des plus de 75 ans. La constatation d’une insuffisance de traitement lors d’un régime « réactif » a poussé les cliniciens à proposer d’autres types de régimes. Le « Treat and Extend » (T&E) est né de la volonté d’adapter les intervalles de retraitement des patients pour une prise en charge plus personnalisée.
Relationship Between Visual Field Sensitivity and Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness Measured by Scanning Laser Polarimetry and Optical Coherence To…
2009
Purpose: To evaluate the correlation between automated achromatic perimetry (AAP) and the output of two retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) analysers: scanning laser polarimetry (GDx-VCC) and optical coherence tomography (OCT). Methods: Quantitative RNFL measurements with GDx-VCC and Stratus-OCT were obtained in one eye from 52 healthy subjects, 38 ocular hypertensive (OHT) patients and 94 glaucomatous patients. All patients underwent a complete examination, including AAP using the Swedish interactive threshold algorithm (SITA). The relationship between RNFL measurements and SITA visual field global indices were assessed by means of the following methods: analysis of variance, bivariate Pearso…

Observe while it happens : catching photoactive proteins in the act with non-adiabatic molecular dynamics simulations
2020
Organisms use photo-receptors to react to light. The first step is usually the absorption of a photon by a prosthetic group embedded inside the photo-receptor, often a conjugated chromophore. The electronic changes in the chromophore induced by photo-absorption can trigger a cascade of structural or chemical transformations that culminate into a response to light. Understanding how these proteins have evolved to mediate their activation process has remained challenging because the required time and spacial resolutions are notoriously difficult to achieve experimentally. Therefore, mechanistic insights into photoreceptor activation have been predominantly obtained with computer simulations. …
Varying plant protein sources in the diet of sea bass Dicentrarchus labrax differently affects lipid metabolism and deposition
2010
The liver activity of lipogenic enzymes, the lipid content in various tissues, and plasma lipid levels of major, were measured in sea bass (D. labrax) fed over 96 days either a, fish meal-based control diet or preparations where 70% of fish meal protein was replaced by wheat gluten singly or in combination with pea or soybean meals. Relative to the controls, sea bass fed the wheat gluten-based diet resulted in stimulated lipogenesis in liver and increased lipid deposition in muscle. The opposite occurred when a substantial amount of soybean meal was included in the diet. Mesenteric fat depots were apparently insensitive to major changes in dietary protein source in fish showing similar inta…
Pressure support ventilation + sigh in acute hypoxemic respiratory failure patients: Study protocol for a pilot randomized controlled trial, the PROT…
2018
Background Adding cyclic short sustained inflations (sigh) to assisted ventilation yields optimizes lung recruitment, decreases heterogeneity and reduces inspiratory effort in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF). These findings suggest that adding sigh to pressure support ventilation (PSV) might decrease the risk of lung injury, shorten weaning and improve clinical outcomes. Thus, we conceived a pilot trial to test the feasibility of adding sigh to PSV (the PROTECTION study). Methods PROTECTION is an international randomized controlled trial that will be conducted in 23 intensive care units (ICUs). Patients with AHRF who have been intubated from 24 h to 7 days and under…
Processus attentionnels et apprentissage moteur
2012
International audience; Le but de cet article est de synthétiser les travaux portant sur les effets de l’attention volontaire sur l’apprentissage d’une habileté motrice. Les premiers modèles d’apprentissage considèrent que l’apprenant franchit plusieurs étapes au cours desquelles la sollicitation des processus attentionnels diminue (Fitts & Posner, 1967). Ainsi, la réalisation d’un mouvement nécessiterait d’engager de l’attention en début d’apprentissage alors qu’elle serait automatique en fin d’apprentissage. Cet article propose de vérifier cette affirmation au regard des recherches récentes qui révèlent que l’apprenant débutant module volontairement son attention a fin d’optimiser la réal…
