Récit de voyage et expérience de l'espace : la Méditerranée écrite et vécue par Josep Piera
2018
Based on some literary extracts (autobiographical prose and poetry) of the Valencian writer Josep Piera, the relationship between the experience of the journey and the writing that comes along as a result of it is analyzed. Three key concepts are discussed : the journey, the Mediterranean and literature. As we will see, the Mediterranean is understood here as a close and familiar world : a mythical, historical, cultural and vital geographical space. The places visited (Greece, Naples, Sicily, etc.) interact and produce a dialogue with the geographical space and the notion of human time.

Divdabja ar piedēkli -oš- semantika un lietojums
2019
Darba mērķis ir izpētīt un noskaidrot, kā latviešu valodā tiek veidots un lietots divdabis ar piedēkli -oš-. Ja sākotnēji šis divdabis ir veidots galvenokārt no nepārejošiem verbiem, tad mūsdienu latviešu valodā sastopams liels skaits divdabju, kas veidoti no pārejošiem verbiem. Bakalaura darba uzdevumi ir:1) iepazīties ar teorētisko literatūru saistībā ar aplūkojamo tematu; 2) dažādos preses izdevumos un “Līdzsvarotajā latviešu valodas korpusā” atrast tagadnes darāmās kārtas divdabju piemērus;3) analizēt divdabju ar piedēkli -oš- semantiku un lietojumu teikumā. Bakalaura darbā ir ievads, trīs nodaļas: divdabis ar piedēkli -oš- latviešu valodā – veidošana un semantika; divdabis ar piedēkli …
Morphological and Postural Changes in the Foot during Pregnancy and Puerperium: A Longitudinal Study
2021
The aim of this study is to observe the morphological and postural changes to the foot that take place during pregnancy and the puerperium. Method: In this descriptive, observational, longitudinal study, we analysed 23 pregnant women, with particular attention to morphological and postural aspects of the foot, at three time points during and after pregnancy: in weeks 9–13 of gestation, weeks 32–35 of gestation and weeks 4–6 after delivery. The parameters considered were changes in foot length, the Foot Posture Index (FPI) and the Hernández Corvo Index, which were analysed using a pedigraph and taking into account the Body Mass Index (BMI). The same procedure was conducted in each review. Re…
Image compression based on a multi-directional map-dependent algorithm
2007
Abstract This work is devoted to the construction of a new multi-directional edge-adapted compression algorithm for images. It is based on a multi-scale transform that is performed in two steps: a detection step producing a map of edges and a prediction/multi-resolution step which takes into account the information given by the map. A short analysis of the multi-scale transform is performed and an estimate of the error associated to the largest coefficients for a piecewise regular function with Lipschitz edges is provided. Comparisons between this map-dependent algorithm and different classical algorithms are given.
Banks’ unfairness and the vulnerability of low-income unbanked consumers
2018
This paper’s objective was to explore low-income unbanked consumers’ perceptions of bank fairness and the way these perceptions were linked to consumer experiences of vulnerability. Qualitative data were used to analyse low-income consumers’ perceptions about banks’ services and communications. The study finds that although consumers’ financial inclusion is partially hindered by their personal circumstances, the perceived unfair treatment by banks has an even more negative impact on their financial inclusion. Low-income unbanked individuals report banks avoiding them, discriminating against them and impeding their financial inclusion. Banks’ perceived unfairness towards low-income consumers…

Voriconazole and squamous cell carcinoma after lung transplantation: A multicenter study
2017
This study evaluated the independent contribution of voriconazole to the development of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in lung transplant recipients, by attempting to account for important confounding factors, particularly immunosuppression. This international, multicenter, retrospective, cohort study included adult patients who underwent lung transplantation during 2005-2008. Cox regression analysis was used to assess the effects of voriconazole and other azoles, analyzed as time-dependent variables, on the risk of developing biopsy-confirmed SCC. Nine hundred lung transplant recipients were included. Median follow-up time from transplantation to end of follow-up was 3.51 years. In a Cox re…
The role of cMET in non-small cell lung cancer resistant to EGFR-Inhibitors: Did we really find the target?
2014
Abstract: The advent of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) represented the most important innovation in NSCLC treatment over the last years. However, despite a great initial activity, secondary mutations in the same target, or different alterations in other molecular pathways, inevitably occur, leading to the emergence of acquired resistance, in median within the first year of treatment. In this scenario, the mesenchymal-epidermal transition (cMET) tyrosine kinase receptor and its natural ligand, the hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), seem to play an important role. Indeed either the overexpression or the amplification of cMET, as well as the overexpr…
