Effect of Calcium Ions on the Disintegration of Enteric-Coated Solid Dosage Forms.
2015
To investigate the effect of calcium ions on the disintegration of enteric-coated dosage forms, disintegration testing was performed on enteric-coated aspirin tablets in the presence and absence of calcium in the test media. The results show that the presence of calcium ions retards the disintegration of enteric-coated dosage forms. This finding, which has not been reported in scientific literature, sheds light on the importance of conducting well-designed detailed investigations into the potential of calcium from dietary sources, calcium supplements, antacids, and/or phosphate binders affecting the absorption of drugs formulated into enteric-coated dosage forms. Moreover, it shows the nece…
La représentation des causes de l'état de santé par les infirmiers et les points de vue envisagés des patients et des aidants naturels : une approche…
2008
This study examines the representation of the determining factors of patients' states of health in therapeutic care situations. We describe the average representation of experienced hospital nurses (n=44) and the differences which they consider to exist between their own and their patients' points of view. Taking as our starting point the purpose of the care provided and the asymmetry of the carer/patient relationship, we hypothesize, on the one hand, that nurses will have a representation of their patients' state of health which is based on the care to be provided, with the factors determining the state of health being necessarily perceived as having a general impact on patients' lives whi…
A HOMOFOBIA EM EDUCAÇÃO FÍSICA NA ESCOLA: UMA REVISÃO SISTEMÁTICA
2020
Resumen: La Educación Física (EF) es una de las asignaturas escolares que más promueve un ambiente hostil y marginal para las personas homosexuales. Por ello, este trabajo tiene como objetivo analizar los artículos empíricos sobre las creencias, las actitudes y los comportamientos homofóbicos presentes en la EF escolar mediante una revisión sistemática. Además de varios aspectos bibliométricos de interés, emergieron cuatro grandes temas derivados del análisis: 1) la heteronormatividad y el heterosexismo imperante; 2) la existencia de homopositividad; 3) la homonegatividad atenuada; y 4) las propuestas para la acción. Estos temas se discuten en detalle y se concluye que pese a observarse mej…
Bariery rozwoju rodzinnych gospodarstw rolnych w opinii ich właścicieli z województwa opolskiego = Barriers to the development of family farms in the…
2018
Celem opracowania jest identyfikacja zmian w zachowaniach organizacyjnych i produkcyjnych właścicieli towarowych gospodarstw rolnych służących zapewnieniu trwałości gospodarstw oraz poznanie głównych barier, których przezwyciężenie jest istotne dla budowania potencjałów rozwojowych rolnictwa i obszarów wiejskich w województwie opolskim. W badaniach uwzględniono czynniki egzogeniczne i endogeniczne, w szczególności: politykę rolną, wielowarstwowe otoczenie instytucjonalne, gotowość rolników do inwestowania, zmiany w technologii produkcji, poszukiwanie nisz specjalizacyjnych. Źródłem informacji były badania ankietowe przeprowadzone wśród właścicieli gospodarstw, produkujących głównie na rynek…
Ficciones inmunitarias. Sobre la lógica de la inmunidad en la cultura contemporánea
2018
This article develops the concept of “immunitarian fiction” taking as paradigmatic examples epidemics and zombie narratives, which share the idea of contagion as the main matrix of their narrative. The article tries to address the following question: in what way do these fictions, and other similar ones, participate in the imaginary of immunity and, at the same time, show some of their internal contradictions? For this, the text reflects on a set of cultural products of mass diffusion (novels, television series, cinematographic works). We analyze, in the first place, how these fictions highlight the fears and social anxieties linked to the tensions of the “immune paradigm” and represent the…
Unveiling the Role of Multiple blockholders: Evidence from Closely Held Firms.
2019
Research Question/Issue. This paper disentangles how the modes of ownership distribution among multiple blockholders and their heterogeneity shape principal–principal conflicts and, in turn, affect firm performance. The paper offers empirical evidence from a panel of Italian closely held firms over the period 2009–2014. Research Findings/Insights. We explore the principal–principal conflicts among blockholders across two distinct control structures. When a single blockholder controls the firm, principal–principal conflicts are shaped by the trade‐off between the alignment effect and the monitoring effect. In this scenario, we find that the relationship between the two largest blockholders' …

Fatigue Monitoring Tool for Airline Operators (FMT)
2017
Abstract A Fatigue Monitoring Tool (FMT) model was constructed for an operational airline in order to manage the fatigue levels of their crews in accordance with Fatigue Risk Management System (FRMS) practices. This article describes the implementation of the Fatigue Monitoring Tool model and the airline’s aims to put the recent scientific findings on aviation fatigue into practical use. The model consists of proxy points allotted to various duties and rest periods.
The Theory of Forms Without Substance a Romanian Legal Transplant Theory Ahead of its Time
2020
Abstract Comparative law and legal history show us that law is dynamic, always in continuous development, change, or mutation. This dynamic dimension has become a central concern for the comparative law scholars. The circulation of legal models in the world (e.g. legal transplant, legal transfer, legal borrowing, legal migration) is an evergreen issue. This phenomenon has provoked numerous doctrinal disputes, which have been encapsulated in complex theories on its possibilities and impossibilities. In the present article, we will not explore the many modern theories regarding legal transplantation (or under other metaphors). Instead, we will go back in time, in the second half of the ninete…
Empiricism and Relationism Intertwined: Hume and Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity
2016
Einstein acknowledged that his reading of Hume influenced the development of his special theory of relativity. In this article, I juxtapose Hume’s philosophy with Einstein’s philosophical analysis related to his special relativity. I argue that there are two common points to be found in their writings, namely an empiricist theory of ideas and concepts, and a relationist ontology regarding space and time. The main thesis of this article is that these two points are intertwined in Hume and Einstein.
