Influenza della tecnica di misura della distribuzione granulometrica sulla stima della curva di ritenzione idrica del suolo

2011

Le distribuzioni granulometriche ottenute sia con il tradizionale metodo per stacciatura-sedimentazione (SH) che con il metodo della diffrattometria laser (LD) sono state utilizzate per determinare le curve di ritenzione idrica di 40 suoli siciliani attraverso modello di Arya e Paris (AP). La curve di ritenzione idrica determinate con il metodo SH sono risultate più accurate di quelle ottenute dal metodo LD. Fra le differenti procedure applicative utilizzate, i risultati migliori si sono ottenuti utilizzando per ciascun suolo un valore del parametro  determinato attraverso una procedura di ottimizzazione. Infine, è stata proposta una relazione tra il parametro  e il contenuto in argilla c…

Feinstruktur eines dritten, nicht-cili�ren Propriorezeptors an der Mandibel vonOryzaephilus surinamensis (L.) (Insecta, Coleoptera)

1978

A third proprioceptor is described in the head ofOryzaephilus, which—just as the other two—presumably controls the movement of the mandible. It consists of two muscle fibres between the anterior arm of tentorium and the dorsal base of mandible, and a sensory cell, which sends a dendrite to the muscle insertion. The numerous endings of the dendrite lie between the touching surfaces of muscle fibres and epidermis cells. They do not show any ciliary structures and are not surrounded by glia cells or connective tissue.

Validación de los datos de radiación solar UV del Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) a partir de medidas con base en tierra en la costa mediterránea

2016

<p align="justify">The erythemal UV daily dose (EDD) and the local noon UV Index (UVI) obtained from the Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI), on board NASA’s Aura satellite, have been validated for the period 2005-2013 using ground based measurements at 5 different sites in the Mediterranean coast: Murcia, Valencia, Palma de Mallorca, Barcelona and Rome (where only measurements of the local noon UVI were available). Ground based measurements were made using YES UVB-1 radiometers in Murcia, Valencia, Palma de Mallorca and Barcelona, and a Brewer MKIV 067 spectrophotometer in Rome. The results of the validation showed good agreement between the satellite instrument and the ground based me…

Komandas darbs ķirurģisko pacientu aprūpes procesā

2016

Bakalaura darbs izstrādāts par tēmu – Komandas darbs ķirurģisko pacientu aprūpes procesā. Tēmas aktualitāti nosaka apstāklis, ka joprojām nav pārliecinošu pētījumu, kas pierādītu komandas darba pārākumu par citiem darba organizācijas veidiem. Pētījuma pamatā pielietota M. Leiningeres māszinību teorija. Bakalaura darba mērķis bija: analizēt komandas darbu ķirurģisko pacientu aprūpē, vienas nodaļas ietvaros. Bakalaura darba uzdevumi bija analizēt literatūras avotus par komandas darba organizēšanu, apkopot komandas locekļu pieredzi saistībā ar komandas darba modeļa ieviešanu ķirurģijas nodaļā, veicot ekspertu intervēšanu, izstrādāt intervijas jautājumus komandas locekļiem, veikt intervijas, ap…

Exploring the cellular uptake of hectorite clay mineral and its drug carrier capabilities.

2022

In the last years, the use of clay minerals for pharmaceutical purposes has increased due to their interesting properties. Hectorite (Ht) is a clay belonging to the smectite group which has attracted attention for applications in biology, tissue engineering and as drug carrier and delivery system. However, the mechanisms involved in Ht cellular uptake and transport into cells, are still unclear. Herein, we used a labeled Ht (Ht/1Cl) to study both the cellular uptake, by confocal laser scanning microscopy, and internalization pathways involved in the cellular uptake, by various endocytosis-inhibiting studies and fluorescence microscopy. These studies highlighted that Ht can penetrate the cel…

Chemotherapy-Induced Neuropathy and Diabetes: A Scoping Review

2021

Although cancer and diabetes are common diseases, the relationship between diabetes, neuropathy and the risk of developing peripheral sensory neuropathy while or after receiving chemotherapy is uncertain. In this review, we highlight the effects of chemotherapy on the onset or progression of neuropathy in diabetic patients. We searched the literature in Medline and Scopus, covering all entries until 31 January 2021. The inclusion and exclusion criteria were: (1) original article (2) full text published in English or Spanish; (3) neuropathy was specifically assessed (4) the authors separately analyzed the outcomes in diabetic patients. A total of 259 papers were retrieved. Finally, eight art…

In vitro study of the apical microleakage with resilon root canal filling using different final endodontic irrigants

2015

Background: Endodontic microleakage or microfiltration refers to the percolation of fluids and micro-organisms at the interface of the obturation material and the walls of the root canal system. The aim of this in vitro study was to compare apical microfiltration of Resilon root canal filling by employing three dif ferent final irrigant solutions. Material and Methods: 128 single-rooted teeth were employed. The crowns were sectioned horizontally at the cemento-enamel junction and instrumented with 5.25% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and 17% EDTA gel to obtain an instrumented 040 apical caliber. An intermediate irrigation was performed with distilled water. The roots were then randomly assigne…

2021

Dystonia, a debilitating neurological movement disorder, is characterized by involuntary muscle contractions and develops from a complex pathophysiology. Graph theoretical analysis approaches have been employed to investigate functional network changes in patients with different forms of dystonia. In this study, we aimed to characterize the abnormal brain connectivity underlying writer's cramp, a focal hand dystonia. To this end, we examined functional magnetic resonance scans of 20 writer's cramp patients (11 females/nine males) and 26 healthy controls (10 females/16 males) performing a sequential finger tapping task with their non-dominant (and for patients non-dystonic) hand. Functional …

O obrzędowym charakterze cyklu "Dziadów" Adama Mickiewicza raz jeszcze

2013

The publication presented in the review is an interesting and much-needed research proposal, which combines the discourse of a philologist, an ethnographer, and a cultural anthropologist. This approach is innovative in the literary studies research on this Polish master dramatist; it constitutes a valuable source not only for literary commentators of Mickiewicz’s series but also for Belorussian folklore scholars, or for those investigating the merging of Polish and Belorussian culture. It makes us realize that, among others, by means of his drama, the poet introduced the Belorussian rite of dziady – a pagan festival in honour of ancestral spirits – into Polish culture. The rite is, for the …

New insights from recently migrated CROP multichannel seismic data at the outermost Calabrian arc accretionary wedge (Ionian sea)

2011

This study addresses selected aspects of the stratigraphic-structural setting of the outermost Calabrian Arc accretionary wedge and underlines relationships between structural development and Messinian evaporite stratigraphy through the analysis of re-processed CROP multichannel seismic reflection profiles. A detailed seismostratigraphic analysis, calibrated with P-velocities compiled by previous works, images a general bipartition of the Messinian evaporite deposits: the transparent «lower subunit» appears to have undergone ductile-flow deformation», with the development of salt-cored thrusting structures, and the layered «upper subunit» appears to be characterized by brittle deformation. …
