Ajallisuus ja rationaalisuus COVID-19-pandemian vaiheissa : järkytys, välitila ja "paluu normaaliin"
2022
Artikkeli selvittää COVID-19-pandemian ajallisia ja intersubjektiivisia ulottuvuuksia eksistentiaalisen fenomenologian näkökulmasta. Teoreettisena lähtökohtana ovat erityisesti Martin Heideggerin ja Jean-Paul Sartren ajallisuuden ja autenttisuuden analyysit sekä Edmund Husserlin kuvaus uskomuksista pidättäytymisestä (epokhē). Esitän, että pandemian alkuvaiheen erityislaatuinen ajallinen ulottuvuus liittyy maailmavarmuuden järkkymiseen ja elämän haurauden kohtaamiseen. Kun kuoleman mahdollisuus hallitsee inhimillistä kanssakäymistä, olemassaoloa alkaa luonnehtia odotus ”normaaliin” palaamisesta ja nykyisyyden todellisuus hämärtyy. Analysoin tätä problematiikkaa ennen kaikkea epokhēn, autentt…
Preparation protocols for SEM visualization of charred fossil plants: the case of Weichselia reticulata pinnule anatomy
2021
The cosmopolite Mesozoic fern Weichselia reticulata presents many peculiarities in the anatomy of its stem as well as in the architecture of its leaves. Previous analyses of the ultrastructure of their pinnule laminas provided some insight on xeromorphic traits. In this work new protocols for the preparation of charred compression foliage specimens embedded in a limestone matrix for their observation under SEM are presented, which enhance the observation of different plant tissues. The preparation with HCl allows for the visualization of the whole lamina, from the upper to the lower epidermis, which had not been done to date. Additionally, collodion, latex, or wax coverings of the fossils b…
One-year renal and cardiac effects of bisoprolol versus losartan in recently diagnosed hypertensive patients: a randomized, double-blind study.
2009
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Hypertension is a significant cause of chronic renal injury and its effective treatment is capable of reducing the rate of renal failure. beta-Adrenoceptor antagonists (beta-blockers) have been reported to induce a deterioration in renal function, while several data have indicated a renoprotective effect of treatment with the angiotensin II type 1 receptor antagonist losartan. Previous studies of the interaction between the selective beta(1)-blocker bisoprolol and kidney function were performed only for short- and medium-term periods. The aim of this study was to compare the antihypertensive efficacy and renal and cardiac haemodynamic effects of bisoprolol with th…
Agustí Bartra i la negritud
2014
El poeta Agustí Bartra (1908-1982) va ser traductor d’alguns dels poetes neoafricans més importants del segle xx. El present treball vol incidir en les reflexions que, a propòsit d’aquestes traduccions, ens ajuden a configurar la poètica del mateix Bartra. Temes tan centrals com la funcionalitat de la poesia, el seu caràcter soteriològic, el paper del mite o del temps, són presents en Bartra com en alguns dels poetes de la negritud. Més enllà d’un interès antropològic, una efusió exòtica o revolucionària, Bartra acara la poesia neoafricana des de la seva exemplaritat, i supera, d’aquesta manera, els tractaments asimètrics, paternalistes o merament ideològics d’alguns dels qui, des d’Occiden…
The effect duration of candesartan cilexetil once daily, in comparison with enalapril once daily, in patients with mild to moderate hypertension.
2001
To determine the antihypertensive efficacy, effect duration and safety of the angiotensin II type 1 receptor blocker candesartan cilexetil and the angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor enalapril once daily in patients with mild to moderate hypertension.A multicenter, randomised, double-blind parallel group study was performed in Finland, France, the Netherlands, Spain and Sweden. Three-hundred-and-ninety-five men and women in the age range 20-80 years with primary hypertension were randomised to an 8-week double-blind treatment period with either candesartan cilexetil 8-16 mg or enalapril 10-20 mg once daily, with forced dose titration after 4 weeks. Non-invasive ambulatory blood pressure…
Immunonutritive Scoring in Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma Undergoing Transarterial Chemoembolization: Prognostic Nutritional Index or Control…
2021
ObjectivesThe Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI) and Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score are immunonutritive scoring systems with proven predictive ability in various cancer entities, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We performed the first evaluation of the CONUT score for patients undergoing transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) and compared CONUT and PNI in the ability to predict median overall survival (OS).MethodsBetween 2010 and 2020, we retrospectively identified 237 treatment-naïve patients with HCC who underwent initial TACE at our institution. Both scores include the albumin level and total lymphocyte count. The CONUT additionally includes the cholesterol level. …
La relation Beauvoir-Sartre ou le dialogue existentiel et intellectuel maître(sse)-disciple
2019
The legendary relation between Simone de Beauvoir and Jean-Paul Sartre was based on a specific communion of the two existentialists ’ souls and bodies. It is Sartre that is generally considered to be the spiritual guide of this duo and that is why his role should be approached with caution in order to show that Beauvoir was by no means an epigone of her master. A contrario, it is the inspiration stemming from her literary output that can be found in a handful of works authored by the founder of Les Temps modernes (Modern Times). This impact is particularly conspicuous in the play entitled Dirty Hands, referring to The Second Sex, in which the author reflects on the concept of myth and shows…
Angiotensin Receptor Neprilysin Inhibition Compared With Enalapril on the Risk of Clinical Progression in Surviving Patients With Heart Failure
2015
Background— Clinical trials in heart failure have focused on the improvement in symptoms or decreases in the risk of death and other cardiovascular events. Little is known about the effect of drugs on the risk of clinical deterioration in surviving patients. Methods and Results— We compared the angiotensin-neprilysin inhibitor LCZ696 (400 mg daily) with the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor enalapril (20 mg daily) in 8399 patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction in a double-blind trial. The analyses focused on prespecified measures of nonfatal clinical deterioration. In comparison with the enalapril group, fewer LCZ696-treated patients required intensification of med…
