Analysis of Primary/Containment Coupling Phenomena Characterizing the MASLWR Design During a SBLOCA Scenario

2012

Today considering the world energy demand increase, the use of advanced nuclear power plants, have an important role in the environment and economic sustainability of country energy strategy mix considering the capacity of nuclear reactors of producing energy in safe and stable way contributing in cutting the CO2 emission (Bertel & Morrison, 2001; World Energy Outlook-Executive Summary, 2009; Wolde-Rufael & Menyah, 2010; Mascari et al., 2011d). According to the information’s provided by the “Power Reactor Information System” of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), today 433 nuclear power reactors are in operation in the world providing a total power installed capacity of 366.610 G…

Il principio di «non respingimento» e la nozione di sbarco in «luogo sicuro» in sede penale. I casi Rackete e Vos Thalassa a confronto

2021

Nel corso del 2020, la giurisprudenza penale si è misurata, direttamente o indirettamente, con nozioni e principi derivanti dal diritto internazionale del mare e dal diritto dei rifugiati. Segnatamente, ci riferiamo alla nozione di sbarco in «luogo sicuro» e al principio di «non respingimento». Ci soffermeremo su due casi. Il primo è la nota e mediaticamente rilevante vicenda Rackete, su cui è intervenuta, nel gennaio del 2020, la corte di cassazione. Il secondo è il caso Vos Thalassa, deciso dalla Corte d’Appello di Palermo nel giugno del 20202. Entrambe le vicende traggono origine da episodi di immigrazione via mare, avvenuti secondo le consuete e spesso tragiche modalità: partenza dalle …

Peran Sektor Pertanian Arti Luas dalam Perekonomian Papua (Pendekatan Model Input-Output)

2018

The aim of this study is to know contribution of agriculture sectors on Gross Domestic Product of Papua in 2002 based on input-output table analysis. The result of analyzing shows that contribution of agriculture sectors in broad meaning to Gross Domestic Regional Product of Papua about 20,11% . Based on backward linkage analysis, it describes that plantations subsector; animal husbandry subsector and fishery subsector have an increase number in backward linkage, on the other hand backward linkage of food crops goes down. Furthermore, forward linkage of agriculture sectors which have link with others sector is fall in 2002. In conclusion, contribution of agriculture setors on Gross Domestic…

Evaluation of Changes in Gut Microbiota in Patients with Crohn’s Disease after Anti-Tnfα Treatment: Prospective Multicenter Observational Study

2020

Background: Crohn’s disease is believed to result from the interaction between genetic susceptibility, environmental factors and gut microbiota, leading to an aberrant immune response. The objectives of this study are to evaluate the qualitative and quantitative changes in the microbiota of patients with Crohn’s disease after six months of anti-tumor-necrosis factor (anti-TNFα) (infliximab or adalimumab) treatment and to determine whether these changes lead to the recovery of normal microbiota when compared to a control group of healthy subjects. In addition, we will evaluate the potential role of the Faecalibacterium prausnitzii/Escherichia coli and Faecalibacterium prausnitzii/Clostridium…

Organometallic complexes with biological molecules. I. Diorganotin(IV)chloro protoporphyrin IX complexes: Solid-state and solution-phase characteriza…

1993

Protoporphyrin IX (H4PPIX) complexes of diorganotin(IV)chloro moieties with formula (R2SnCl)2H2PPIX (RMe, Bu and Ph) have been obtained and their solid-state and solution-phase configurations have been studied through spectroscopic investigations. Coordination of the side-chain carboxylates of H4PPIX to R2Sn(IV)Cl moieties, with bridging carboxylate (COO−) has been inferred by comparison of the free and coordinated H4PPIX IR spectra, while the occurrence of a five-coordinated tin(IV) atom in a cis-R2 trigonal bipyramidal structure has been deduced, for all of the synthesized complexes, by rationalization of the nuclear quadrupole splitting parameters, according to the point-charge model for…

The role of gut micorbiome in obesity and diabetes

2019

Background Obesity and diabetes became a grooving problem in both adults and children. Many hypotheses concerned agents involved in the excessive weight gain process and it’s consequences. Not only genetic or environmental factors, but also intestinal microbiome seems to play a role in the pathophysiology of this phenomenon. Data sources A systematic review was conducted using Pubmed as the medical database source. Studies concerning connection between microbiome and metabolic disorders such as obesity and diabetes from last 10 years were analyzed. Results Intestinal bacteria may be involved both in the development of obesity, and its further complications. The pro-infammatory and immunomod…

The Acute Effect of Low Intensity Aerobic Exercise on Psychomotor Performance of Athletes with Nocturnal Sleep Deprivation

2018

Objectives: Psychomotor performance is a vital factor which decisively affects the athletic performance. The purpose of the research was to investigate the acute effects of low intensity aerobic exercise on psychomotor performance of athletes with nocturnal sleep deprivation. Methods: Sixteen professional female volleyball players with mean age of 22.3 ± 2.6 years old were studied twice in a balanced, randomized design. The participants were asked to fill the Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) prior to the beginning of the study and their nocturnal activity was recorded at 1-minute intervals and scored with the Actiwatch sleep analysis. The study used the Vienna Test System to measure co…

Endring i psykisk velvære etter gjennomført 12-trinnsbasert rusbehandling : en sammenligning av dag- og døgnbehandling

2014

Masteroppgave i psykisk helsearbeid ME504 Universitetet i Agder 2014 Background There has been an increasing focus on intensive outpatient treatment in drug rehabilitation. Through Government papers, the Norwegian authorities emphasize holistic and integrated services at the lowest effective level of care. And that the treatment of those with co-occurring substance abuse and mental disorders, which is defined out of dual diagnosis, must be strengthened. 12-step treatment is an internationally recognized therapy form treating alcoholism and substance abuse, but it is less focused on whether the treatment form contributes to improved mental health. Aims The study is based on 136 patients admi…

Production of reactive oxygen intermediates by human macrophages exposed to soot particles and asbestos fibers and increase in NF-kappa B p50/p105 mR…

1999

Alveolar macrophages (AM) play a decisive role in the immunologic defense system of the lung and in inflammatory pulmonary pathomechanisms. AM and blood monocytes (BM) were exposed to chrysotile B, soot FR 101, and Printex 90 (P 90). We evaluated the reactive oxygen intermediate (ROI) release of AM and BM after particle exposure. ROI release was measured by chemiluminescence. Thirty-minute exposure caused a significant (up to 2.5-fold) increase in ROI release of AM (100 micrograms/10(6) cells) compared with control experiments (p0.01). Identical exposure conditions for BM resulted in a similar reaction pattern (maximum 2.2-fold increase in ROI release; p0.05). After a 90-min particle exposu…
