La falta de reproducibilitat de la investigació: L'estadística com a legitimació del resultat
2014
La investigació científica es legitima mitjançant la replicació dels seus resultats, però els esforços per replicar afirmacions enganyoses exhaureixen el finançament. Ens centrarem en una d’aquestes errades: els resultats de proves estadístiques que ofereixen falsos positius a causa de l’atzar. Els mètodes estadístics clàssics confien en un p-valor per a ponderar les proves enfront d’una hipòtesi nul·la, però les proves d’hipòtesis bayesianes ofereixen resultats més fàcils de comprendre, sempre que hom puga especificar distribucions a priori per a la hipòtesi alternativa. Descriurem noves proves, les UMPBT, tests bayesians que ofereixen una especificació per defecte de les alternatives a pr…
La aplicación del derecho extranjero en iberoamérica y la unión europea: : paralelismos desde la diferencia
2021
The potential application of a foreign law constitutes the logical outcome of any Private International Law? system. However, and despite its relevance, this issue lacks a common answer in the EU. In contrast to this, the analysis of the solutions drafted in Latin America as regards this issue grants a novel dimension to the European situation on this issue as well as highlights a meritorious reality that shows a high and very relevant degree of harmonization
Problem Transformation Methods with Distance-Based Learning for Multi-Target Regression
2020
Multi-target regression is a special subset of supervised machine learning problems. Problem transformation methods are used in the field to improve the performance of basic methods. The purpose of this article is to test the use of recently popularized distance-based methods, the minimal learning machine (MLM) and the extreme minimal learning machine (EMLM), in problem transformation. The main advantage of the full data variants of these methods is the lack of any meta-parameter. The experimental results for the MLM and EMLM show promising potential, emphasizing the utility of the problem transformation especially with the EMLM. peerReviewed
Implementation of IUCN criteria for the definition of the Red List of Ecosystems in Italy, Plant Biosystems.
2020
The present work is aimed at presenting the data, methods and criteria that are being used for the assessment of ecosystem collapse risk in Italy.
Implementation of Computer Assisted Experimental Work in Analytical Chemistry Laboratory Teaching
2019
[EN] Computer-Assisted Experimental Work (CAEW) consists in the incorporation of computer-connected apparatus in the laboratory. This is a new insight into teaching of Classical Analytical Chemistry, wherein the experiments are usually manually conducted. However, it does not represent a complete break with traditional methodology, as the design and goal of the experiment are essentially the same. In this work, we present the implementation of CAEW to a practical included in the Laboratory part of “Analytical Chemistry IV”, taught at the fourth academic year of the Degree in Chemistry: “Potentiometric titration of a mixture of iodure and chlorure with silver”. Three couples of students used…
A Novel Pathophysiological Mechanism Contributing to Trigeminal Neuralgia
2016
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a form of neuropathic pain that affects the fifth cranial nerve, the most widely distributed nerve in the head. Although TN has been associated with a variety of pathological conditions, neurovascular compression on the trigeminal nerve, as it exits the brain stem, is the most frequent reported cause. This compression provides a progressive demyelination of the nerve and a subsequent aberrant neural transmission. Although several studies have clarified some physiopathological mechanisms underlying TN, the molecular basis remains vague. Very recently the substitution of methionine 136 by valine (MET126Val) in sodium channel Nav1.6 in a case study of typical TN ha…
Biometaanin ja -vedyn tuotantopotentiaali Suomessa
2010
Globaali tarve edistää kestävää kehitystä, vähentää ympäristökuormitusta ja hidastaa ilmastonmuutosta edellyttää mm. materiaalivirtojen tehokasta hallintaa ja paluuta uusiutuvien ja kierrätettävien resurssien käyttöön. Biokaasuteknologia tarjoaa yhden ratkaisun, yhdistäen jätteiden käsittelyn ja energian tuotannon. Kiinnostus biokaasuteknologian käyttöön on lisääntynyt viime vuosina myös Suomessa. Suunnitteilla on useita biokaasulaitoksia. Lisäksi useat tahot ovat tehneet selvityksiä biokaasun hyödyntämiseksi. Tämän työn tavoitteena oli selvittää biokaasuprosessin raaka-aineeksi soveltuvien erilaisten biomassojen määrät ja sijainnit Suomessa. Tavoitteena oli myös selvittää näiden jakeiden m…

Perimenopausal women show modulation of excitatory and inhibitory neuromuscular mechanisms.
2021
Background Menopausal transition exposes women to an early decline in muscle force and motor function. Changes in muscle quality and function, especially in lower limbs, are crucial, as they expose individuals to increased risk of falls. To elucidate some of the related neuromuscular mechanisms, we investigated cortical inhibition and peripheral muscle twitch force potentiation in women during the early and late stages of perimenopause. Methods Participants were 63 women aged 48–55 years categorized as early (EP, n = 25) or late (LP, n = 38) perimenopausal according to serum follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels and menstrual diaries. EP women had an irregular menstrual cycle and FSH 2…
A Perturbed Cauchy Viscoelastic Problem in an Exterior Domain
2023
A Cauchy viscoelastic problem perturbed by an inverse-square potential, and posed in an exterior domain of RN, is considered under a Dirichlet boundary condition. Using nonlinear capacity estimates specifically adapted to the non-local nature of the problem, the potential function and the boundary condition, we establish sufficient conditions for the nonexistence of weak solutions.
