EFFECTS OF SHIFT WORK ON CARDIOVASCULAR ACTIVITY, SERUM CORTISOL AND WHITE BLOOD CELLS COUNT IN A GROUP OF ITALIAN FISHERMEN
2012
We analyzed the effects of working activity and working shifts on the circadian rhythmicity and circadian phase relations of serum cortisol level, white blood cells count, resting heart rate and systolic/diastolic blood pressure in a group of italian fishermen. We observed a shift-induced displacement of cortisol secretion and a modification in leukocyte count. Moreover, systolic/diastolic blood pressure and resting heart rate were markedly influenced by the night shift, whereas no appreciable changes were observed after the morning and afternoon shifts, compared to pre-working values. These data suggest that the human circadian system is greatly influenced by shift work, and serum cortisol…
Improving the Use of Simulation in Nursing Education: Protocol for a Realist Review
2020
BackgroundNursing education has evolved in line with societal needs, and simulation-based learning (SBL) is increasingly being used to bridge the gap between practice and education. Previous literature reviews have demonstrated the effectiveness of using SBL in nursing education. However, there is a need to explore how and why it works to expand the theoretical foundation of SBL.ObjectiveThis review aims to understand how, why, and in what circumstances the use of simulation affects learning as part of the bachelor’s program in nursing.MethodsA realist review will be conducted in accordance with the realist template for a systematic review. In particular, we will identify and explore the un…
Nouvelles technologies et aide à la compréhension de documents techniques : Construction et expérimentation d'un simulateur de fonctionnement de grue…
2001
Reading skills are more and more required to succeed professional examination. French crane drivers are concerned with this problem. In order to help them, we have conducted a study with three main steps. First, we carried out a cognitive work analysis. Second, we test several analogical modalities of written presentations focusing on the construction of a specific simulator. Finally, two experiments are presented showing a significative effect of this simulator on the comprehension of cranes technical documentation.

Cognition, metacognition and the patient perspective : new ways to evaluate and rehabilitate schizophrenia patients in forensic psychiatric care
2016
This research focused on factors associated with schizophrenia as well as on the feasibility and effectiveness of group metacognitive training (MCT) in schizophrenia patients with a history of violence in a high-security forensic hospital setting. One of the aims was to scrutinize reasoning ability in regards to jumping to conclusions (JTC) cognitive bias and the expression of cognitive insight (insight into one’s own thinking), a metacognitive ability. A second aim was to examine the associations of these factors with each other and with insight into illness and delusions. Moreover, the patients’ health-related quality of life (HRQOL) was explored. A further objective was to study the pote…
Datortomogrāfijas protokola pielietošana smadzeņu nāves apstiprināšanai
2020
Bakalaura darba tēma ir “Datortomogrāfijas protokola pielietošana smadzeņu nāves apstiprināšanā”. Attīstoties intensīvās terapijas un transplantoloģijas nozarēm, smadzeņu nāves diagnostikā nepieciešams papildus veikt izmeklējumus, kas nodrošina ātru un efektīvu rezultātu, veicot apstiprinājumu smadzeņu nāves diagnozei. Datortomogrāfijas angiogrāfija ir viens no tiem. Bakalaura darba izvirzītā hipotēze ir: datortomogrāfijas protokols smadzeņu nāves apstiprināšanai katrā slimnīcā ir atšķirīgs. Darba mērķis ir noskaidrot datortomogrāfijas protokola pielietošanu smadzeņu nāves apstiprināšanai 3 Latvijas slimnīcās. Pētniecības uzdevumi ir apkopot un analizēt literatūru par galvas smadzeņu anatom…
International distance learning design experiences. Above the clouds, a project for a temporary event in the Bolognetta valley
2021
The health emergency due to the spread of COVID-19 has required a methodological and technological adaptation to the entire world of teaching and researching, in order to define in a brief time new methods for designing and teaching. In consideration of this, Campus Asia1 decided to organize one of the key events of its educational offer in a distance learning form, an international winter school with overn eighty participants and five international guest universities. Together with Kyushu University (China), Tongji University (Japan) and Pusan National University (South Korea), the edition held between 15 and 26 February 2021 saw the participation of two European partner universities, the …
