Izdegšana un to saistība ar personības iezīmēm profesionālā dienesta karavīriem un zemessargiem

2019

Pētījuma mērķis ir noskaidrot, vai izdegšana ir saistīta personības iezīmēm profesionālā dienesta karavīriem un zemessargiem. Kā arī- kuras no šīm militārpersonas grupām ir tendēti izdegt visvairāk. Pētijumā piedalījās divas respondentu grupas- profesionālā dienesta karavīri( n=31) un zemessargi (n=31). Respondenti bija 11 sievietes un 51 vīrietis vecuma grupā no 20 līdz 56 gadu vecumam un šo respondentu grupu vidējais vecums bija 35,6 gadi. Tika veidotas divas grupas, atbilstoši pētījuma korelatīvi aprakstošajam dizainam. Respondenti aizpildīja divas aptaujas: 1. Izdegšanas klīnisko apakštipu aptauja (Marin, Campayo, 2010).

Reflektoiva oppilas suomalaisessa perusopetuksen opetussuunnitelmallisessa arviointidiskurssissa

2023

Oppilaan itsearvioinnista on muotoutunut keskeinen osa arviointia suomalaisessa perusopetuksessa viime vuosikymmeninä, mutta oppilaalta on odotettu itsearviointia paljon tätä pidempään. Artikkelissa analysoidaan oppilaan itsearvioinnin historiaa suomalaisessa opetussuunnitelmapolitiikkadiskurssissa ja erityisesti sitä, miten itsearviointi on problematisoitunut eri tavoin ajan kuluessa. Tutkimuksessa hyödynnetään Carol Bacchin poststrukturalistiseen perinteeseen sijoittuvaa politiikkaongelmien rakentumista tarkastelevaa tutkimusstrategiaa ja analysoidaan suomalaisia oppivelvollisuuskoulun opetussuunnitelmia. Siinä missä kansakoulun aikana itsearviointi rakentui ratkaisuksi kriittisesti ajatt…

The Particularities of Pharmaceutical Care in Improving Public Health Service during the COVID-19 Pandemic

2021

Nowadays, humanity is confronted with one of the most difficult challenges. Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) was identified for the first time in Hubei, China in December 2019 and produced the COVID-19 pandemic, a devastating disease that led to many complications and deaths. The authorities and the global healthcare system have been alerted regarding the prevention and treatment of this pathology. Even though worldwide quarantine was declared, health care professionals, including pharmacists, have been at the frontline in this war. Since the beginning of the pandemic, the authorities relied on the involvement of the community, hospital, or clinical pharmacists i…

Appropriateness of requests for human serum albumin at the University Hospital of Palermo, Italy: a prospective study

2015

Abstract OBJECTIVE: First, to assess the appropriateness of requests for albumin using current guidelines; second, to evaluate physicians' compliance with this protocol. DESIGN: Descriptive, prospective study. SETTING: 'Paolo Giaccone' University Hospital in Palermo (Italy). PARTICIPANTS: The six departments with the highest orders for albumin. INTERVENTION: An experimental, pharmacist-driven process for daily orders of albumin was activated over a period of 1 month. Pharmacy personnel handed out order forms on six different wards. Physicians were required to select one of a number of intended uses listed on the form. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Data on albumin and serum protein levels; number o…

A first-order phase transition for pulsar surface

2012

In this paper, we explain the existence of a possible first-order phase transition that may occur over the external solid crust of a pulsar, by means of an interpretation of a particular formal model (drawn from Theoretical Astrophysics) whose thermodynamical phenomenology shows a possible first-order phase transition (according to Landau’s Phenomenological Theory).

Folate-targeted gold nanorods for effective combined photothermal-chemotherapy of osteosarcoma

2016

Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common primary malignant neoplasm of bone. The annual incidence of osteosarcoma is 8-11 per million in the age group of 15-19 years. Despite its rarity, it has been reported to be the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in children and young adults. In particular with regard to OS therapy, a variety of nanostructures have been exploited in the areas of OS imaging. Among them, Gold nanorods (AuNRs) have unique optical and chemical-physical properties that make them appealing for biomedical applications such as photothermal therapy, drug delivery and imaging of solid tumors. The noble metal core is biologically inert, contributing to low toxicity and go…

NIR LASER-RESPONSIVE FOLATE-TARGETED GOLD NANORODS AS EFFICIENT THERANOSTIC TOOL FOR OSTEOSARCOMA TREATMENT

2017

Folate-targeted gold nanorods (GNRs) are here proposed as selective theranostic agents for osteosarcoma treatment. Taking advantage of the attractive physiochemical and optical properties of GNRs they can be proposed as effective and selective platform to obtain a targeted intracellular drug release, photothermal therapy and cancer imaging, which may improve therapeutic outcomes of osteosarcoma. An amphiphilic polysaccharide graft-copolymer, named INU-LA-PEG-FA, and a folic acid functionalized α,β-poly(N-2-hydroxyethyl)-D,L-aspartamide (PHEA-FA), have been synthesized to act as coating agents for GNRs. The obtained polymer-coated GNRs were characterized in terms of size, shape, zeta potenti…

The vegetation of mining dumps in SW-Sardinia

2005

The vegetation of mining dumps of SW-Sardinia includes several endemic or rare species, that have been confined to such artificial habitats by a millennial mining activity. The extreme edaphic specialisation of these species reflects with unusual fidelity the heterogeneity of substrata, therefore creating a system of plant communities that largely contributes to the environmental diversity of this part of the island. The phytosociological study presented in this paper recognized eight associations, distinguished by the cluster analysis in two main groups, the first including hemicrypto-chamaephytic vegetation, the second including nanophanerophytic garigues. Six associations are belonging t…

Deepening Inside the Pictorial Layers of Etruscan Sarcophagus of Hasti Afunei: An Innovative Micro-Sampling Technique for Raman/SERS Analyses

2019

The Hasti Afunei sarcophagus is a large Etruscan urn, made up of two chalky alabaster monoliths. Dated from the last quarter of the third century BC, it was found in 1826 in the small town of Chiusi (Tuscany- Il Colle place) by a landowner, Pietro Bonci Casuccini, who made it part of his private collection.
