Cold Exposure Affects Lipid Metabolism, Fatty Acids Composition and Transcription in Pig Skeletal Muscle
2021
Cold exposure promotes glucose oxidation and modulates the lipid metabolism in adipose tissue, but it is still not fully clear whether cold exposure could affect meat quality and fatty acid metabolism in skeletal muscle of pig in vivo. Here, we kept finishing pigs under cold or room temperature overnight and determined the effects of cold exposure on meat quality, fatty acids composition and transcriptional changes in skeletal muscle of pigs. We found that cold exposure significantly reduced the meat colour24 h and pH24 h, without affecting carcass characteristics and other meat quality traits. Considerable changes were found in the proportions of individual fatty acids and the total conten…
Strain effects in phosphorus bound exciton transitions in silicon
2023
Donor spin states in silicon are a promising candidate for quantum information processing. One possible donor spin readout mechanism is the bound exciton transition that can be excited optically and creates an electrical signal when it decays. This transition has been extensively studied in bulk, but in order to scale towards localized spin readout, microfabricated structures are needed for detection. As these electrodes will inevitably cause strain in the silicon lattice, it will be crucial to understand how strain affects the exciton transitions. Here we study the phosphorous donor bound exciton transitions in silicon using hybrid electro-optical readout with microfabricated electrodes. W…

Educación artística : revista de investigación
2019
Resumen: En este artículo se presenta una experiencia artística realizada en diez centros de enseñanza secundaria de L’Horta Nord y Camp de Morvedre (València) sobre los procesos de construcción identitaria mediante actitudes artísticas contemporáneas, en este caso, a través del videoarte. Utilizando la Investigación educativa basada en las artes (Arts Based Educational Research) se ha llevado a término la realización y posterior análisis interpretativo de todas las producciones videográficas fundamentadas en el autorretrato tradicional, por tanto, han conformado unos resultados muy interesantes que inducen a reflexionar sobre la utilización y desarrollo de estos nuevos géneros contemporáne…
Tēvu iesaiste pirmsskolas vecuma bērnu aprūpē un audzināšanā, vecāku depresijas simptomi un bērnu uzvedības problēmas
2019
Pētījuma mērķis bija noskaidrot, kādas sakarības pastāv starp tēvu iesaisti pirmsskolas vecuma bērnu aprūpē un audzināšanā, vecāku depresijas simptomiem un bērnu uzvedības problēmām. Pētījuma respondenti bija bioloģiskie vecāki bērnam bez hroniskas saslimšanas un attīstības traucējumiem, vecumā no 3 līdz 5 gadiem, kas dzīvo kopā, un pētījuma veikšanas brīdī bija sasnieguši vismaz 21 gada vecumu. Pētījumā piedalījās 110 vecāku pāri, kuros 110 bija mātes vecumā no 23 līdz 49 gadiem (M=34,94, SD=4,57) un 110 bija tēvi vecumā no 27 līdz 59 gadiem (M=36,89, SD=5,82). Pētījumā tika izmantota Depresijas, trauksmes, stresa aptauja (Lovibond & Lovibond, 1995), Pirmsskolas vecuma bērnu uzvedības novē…
Perception of pathogenic or beneficial bacteria and their evasion of host immunity: pattern recognition receptors in the frontline
2015
International audience; Plants are continuously monitoring the presence of microorganisms to establish an adapted response. Plants commonly use pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) to perceive microbe- or pathogen-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs/PAMPs) which are microorganism molecular signatures. Located at the plant plasma membrane, the PRRs are generally receptor-like kinases (RLKs) or receptor-like proteins (RLPs). MAMP detection will lead to the establishment of a plant defense program called MAMP-triggered immunity (MTI). In this review, we overview the RLKs and RLPs that assure early recognition and control of pathogenic or beneficial bacteria. We also highlight the crucial func…
Plasma PAF-acetylhydrolase in patients with coronary artery disease: results of a cross-sectional analysis.
2003
Inflammation underlies both onset and perpetuation of atherosclerosis. Plasma lipoproteins transport the platelet-activating factor-acetylhydrolase (PAF-AH) with potentially anti-inflammatory activities. Our aim was to determine whether PAF-AH activity was associated with inflammatory markers and with coronary artery disease (CAD). PAF-AH activity and a panel of inflammatory mediators were measured in plasma of 496 patients with CAD and in 477 controls; 276 patients presented with stable angina pectoris and 220 with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Individuals within the highest quartile of PAF-AH activity had an 1.8-fold increase in CAD risk [95% confidence interval (CI), 1.01 to 3.2; P = 0.…
Prevalence of Pneumococcal Serotypes in Community-Acquired Pneumonia among Older Adults in Italy: A Multicenter Cohort Study
2022
Pneumococcal community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is a leading cause of mortality. Following the introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) in children, a decrease in the burden of the disease was reported. In parallel, an increase in non-vaccine serotypes was also noted. The objective of this study was to assess the current serotype-specific epidemiology of pneumococci among Italian older adults hospitalized for CAP. A prospective study was conducted between 2017 and 2020 in four Italian regions. Subjects aged ≥65 years hospitalized with confirmed CAP were tested for pneumococci using both pneumococcal urinary antigen and serotype-specific urine antigen tests able to identify all…
«Cual doctora en cielo graduada...». The feminine poetry for literary contests in honor of the beatification and canonization of Teresa of Ávila (Val…
2015
L’objectiu d’aquest estudi és examinar les composicions poètiques aportades per dones als tres certàmens celebrats a València i Barcelona, amb motiu de la beatificació (1614) i posterior canonització (1622) de Teresa de Jesús; dos moments clau per a la consolidació de la fama de la carmelitana avilesa que van possibilitar l’exhibició pública i impressió de poesia femenina. Analitzem també la participació femenina catalana al certamen celebrat a Saragossa el 1614 per la beatificació. L’estudi està enfocat des d’una perspectiva femenina, a través de la revisió de dihuit poesies amb signatura de dones que ens han transmès les extenses relacions impreses. Al llarg del comentari dels poemes, ana…
Decir y discurso directo en los relatos de la conversación coloquial
2015
Una de las constantes de la conversación coloquial es la presencia continuada de relatos de experiencia personal, impactantes o banales, contados por un hablante o por varios, en calidad de relato prototípico, con un clímax determinado, o bien como mera relación encadenada de experiencias. Entre estos y otros rasgos, destaca el empleo del discurso directo o dramatización, forma predilecta de representación de las palabras, pensamientos o incluso de enunciados exhibidos como nunca dichos, que se atribuyen a los eventuales personajes de esas historias pasadas, futuras y aun imaginarias. Esta investigación analiza el uso particular del discurso directo y de la forma verbal "decir" a partir del…
