The future outlook on allergen immunotherapy in children: 2018 and beyond

2018

Abstract Allergen immunotherapy (AIT) is the only currently available immune-modifying and aetiological treatment for patients suffering from IgE-mediated diseases. In childhood, it represents a suitable therapeutic option to intervene during the early phases of respiratory allergic diseases such as rhino-conjunctivitis and asthma, which is when their progression may be more easily influenced. A growing body of evidence shows that oral immunotherapy represents a promising treatment option in children with persistent IgE- mediated food allergy. The efficacy of AIT is under investigation also in patients with extrinsic atopic dermatitis, currently with controversial results. Furthermore, AIT …

Consensus statement of the Italian society of pediatric allergy and immunology for the pragmatic management of children and adolescents with allergic…

2020

AbstractThe COVID-19 pandemic has surprised the entire population. The world has had to face an unprecedented pandemic. Only, Spanish flu had similar disastrous consequences. As a result, drastic measures (lockdown) have been adopted worldwide. Healthcare service has been overwhelmed by the extraordinary influx of patients, often requiring high intensity of care. Mortality has been associated with severe comorbidities, including chronic diseases. Patients with frailty were, therefore, the victim of the SARS-COV-2 infection. Allergy and asthma are the most prevalent chronic disorders in children and adolescents, so they need careful attention and, if necessary, an adaptation of their regular…

L’intégration de l’éducation au dé-veloppement durable dans l’enseignement du FLE en Finlande

2010

Kestävä kehitys on pohja hyvinvoinnillemme ja mahdollistaa tulevienkin sukupolvien hyvän elämän. Asiaan perehtyneille on selvää, että tarvitsemme luonnon tarjoamia tuotteita ja palveluita omaan selviämiseemme, puhumattakaan henkisestä hyvinvoinnistamme. Kaikki eivät sitä kuitenkaan ole sisäistäneet, vaikka nykyään jo opetussuunnitelmat, saati sitten kansainväliset strategiat, velvoittavat kestävän kehityksen kasvatukseen kouluissa ja näin ollen myös kielten opetuksessa ja ranskan oppikirjoissa. Ovatko oppikirjojen tekijät kuitenkaan ottaneet huomioon näitä velvoitteita, jotka jo moraalisesti sitovat niitä noudattamaan? Näkyykö kestävän kehityksen kasvatus ranskan kielen oppikirjoissa, ja jo…

Geometry of Quadrangles in Almqvist’s The Queen’s Tiara

2018

Quadrangles are repeatedly used in construction of scenes in Swedish author C. J. L. Almqvist’s novel The Queen’s Tiara. They limit and frame views. Repeating these structures creates connections between scenes. They form in relations between characters. Several quadrangular structures form around one main character called Tintomara, when she involuntarily attracts characters that fall in love in her. Also, quadrangles inside and beside each other are visible in scenes. Almqvist presented these forms in the elementary geometry textbook he published a year before this novel. peerReviewed

Adopting magnetocaloric heat pumping and refrigeration for electrical vehicle

2017

International audience; Refrigeration process is based on conventional gas compression and expansion techniques. However, this technique has numerous disadvantages since it generates greenhouse gas and is partly responsible for global warming. This paper exposes analternative method: magnetocaloric refrigeration that presents the advantage to combine high-energy efficiency and respect of theenvironment. Magnetic heat pumping and cooling is compared to conventional method applied on vehicle air conditioning system.Simulation results are used to demonstrate the approach.

Counter-Clock World: How Planning Backwards Helps in Moving Forward in Collapsing Environments

2021

Research on corporate decline and turnarounds as well as the strategic use of history have so far remained two separate research fields. We integrate these two fields with a thought experiment, proposing ways in which strategists can work with, and through time in managing and turning around declines. Our thought experiment involves two very different types of analogies: a textual one from Philip K. Dick’s science fiction novels, on the one hand, and a visual one from Einsteinian relativity science, on the other hand. Inspired and informed by these different conceptualizations of the past and time, we develop four forms of backward strategizing to successfully manage a struggling corporatio…
