Impact of a program based in eating habits and physiotherapy on anthropometric parameters in patients with coronary artery disease: randomized contro…

2021

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Introduction. On the one hand, physical training such as High intensity interval training (HIIT) and on the other, eating habits, it is often prescribed to patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Nevertheless, the combination of HIIT and eating habits in CAD with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) there is no consensus on using a combined protocol of both. Purpose. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of an HIIT program with eating habits, with a program based in HIIT, on anthropometric parameters in CAD patients with PCI. Methods. A randomized controlled trial was carried out in a hospital.  44 pati…

Thompson Sampling Guided Stochastic Searching on the Line for Non-stationary Adversarial Learning

2015

This paper reports the first known solution to the N-Door puzzle when the environment is both non-stationary and deceptive (adversarial learning). The Multi-Armed-Bandit (MAB) problem is the iconic representation of the exploration versus exploitation dilemma. In brief, a gambler repeatedly selects and play, one out of N possible slot machines or arms and either receives a reward or a penalty. The objective of the gambler is then to locate the most rewarding arm to play, while in the process maximize his winnings. In this paper we investigate a challenging variant of the MAB problem, namely the non-stationary N-Door puzzle. Here, instead of directly observing the reward, the gambler is only…

The requirement for the inclusion of formulation efficacy trials in pesticide preregistration evaluations

2008

BACKGROUND: Optimization of biocide use could serve to reduce the risks of biocides on human health. To optimize the risk/benefit ratio, it is important to develop procedures for evaluating the efficacy of biocide formulations. The authors examined the effectiveness of ten pyrethroid insecticide aerosol formulations registered for the household control of flies. Tests were performed using adult Musca domestica L. Knockdown effects and mortality were measured in a test chamber using the manufacturer's recommended discharge time. RESULTS: The knockdown effect varied greatly between aerosols of similar composition. The knockdown 15 min post-treatment was 66–98% for flies placed 120 cm above fl…

«1912, l'affaire Bonnot : les effets contradictoires d'une crise sécuritaire sur les polices et la gendarmerie»

Article en ligne. Consultable : URL : http://socio-logos.revues.org/document521.html; À la veille du premier conflit mondial, la poursuite de malfaiteurs motorisés mobilisa l'ensemble des forces de l'ordre dont disposait alors la République. Si, en avril-mai 1912, les meneurs de la « bande à Bonnot » sont tués et stoppe la course des « bandits tragiques », ces morts ne marquent pas le terme de l'affaire pour les policiers et les gendarmes. Les pouvoirs publics ne peuvent accepter le renouvellement d'une telle crise sécuritaire, dont la durée s'expliquerait par les disfonctionnements des relations entre composantes de la force publique.

« La police judiciaire en débat : les effets contradictoires de l'affaire Bonnot sur les polices et la gendarmerie »

2006

À la veille du premier conflit mondial, la poursuite de malfaiteurs motorisés mobilisa l'ensemble des forces de l'ordre dont disposait alors la République. Si, en avril-mai 1912, les meneurs de la « bande à Bonnot » sont tués et stoppe la course des « bandits tragiques », ces morts ne marquent pas le terme de l'affaire pour les policiers et les gendarmes. Les pouvoirs publics ne peuvent accepter le renouvellement d'une telle crise sécuritaire, dont la durée s'expliquerait par les disfonctionnements des relations entre composantes de la force publique. L'organisation de la police judiciaire est sur la sellette. Plusieurs réformes structurelles et fonctionnelles touchent les services civils d…

In vitro antifungal activity of lactic acid bacteria against mycotoxigenic fungi and their application in loaf bread shelf life improvement

2016

Food spoilage caused by mycotoxigenic fungi represents an important food safety problem. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are used as starter cultures in a larger number of food products. In this study, 16 strains of LAB were cultivated in MRS broth under anaerobiosis. Then, cell free supernatants were obtained by centrifugation and their antifungal activity against Aspergillus parasiticus and Penicillium expansum was tested using the disc-diffusion method. Furthermore, the LABs that showed in vitro antifungal activity were used in bread fermentation with yeast in order to study fungal growth inhibition and aflatoxin (AF) reduction in processed bread previously inoculated with A. parasiticus. The…

Ķermeņa lietojums” Džordžo Agambena politiskās ontoloģijas kontekstā

2022

Šajā darbā tiek apskatīts Džordžo Agambena Homo Sacer projekts, meklējot ķermeņa lietojuma paradigmas izcelšanos un funkcionēšanas mehānismus modernajā Rietumu pasaules pārvaldībā. Maģistra darbā uzmanība vērsta uz Agambena politiskās ontoloģijas priekšstatiem, par vienu no šīs sistēmas pamatelementiem izvirzot ķermeņa lietojuma konceptu. Darbā, balstoties uz Homo Sacer grāmatu tekstiem, rasts skaidrojums lietojuma un tādējādi arī ķermeņa lietojuma nozīmei modernitātes un nākamības politiskās ontoloģijas kontekstā. Pētījumā secināts, ka ķermeņa lietojums, līdzīgi kā citas paradigmas, ir būtisks kailās dzīvības pārvaldes mehānisms, ko iespējams pārvarēt, tikai skatot esamību dzīves-formas ie…

Gaussian Mixture Models and Model Selection for [18F] Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography Classification in Alzheimer’s Disease

2015

We present a method to discover discriminative brain metabolism patterns in [18F] fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET) scans, facilitating the clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease. In the work, the term "pattern" stands for a certain brain region that characterizes a target group of patients and can be used for a classification as well as interpretation purposes. Thus, it can be understood as a so-called "region of interest (ROI)". In the literature, an ROI is often found by a given brain atlas that defines a number of brain regions, which corresponds to an anatomical approach. The present work introduces a semi-data-driven approach that is based on learning the charac…
