El léxico coloquial argentino en los “sketches” humorísticos
2017
En la lengua española encontramos una gran riqueza dialectológica y es, precisamente, esa variedad la que explica la existencia de identidades lingüísticas en cada una de las comunidades hispanas. Mediante el léxico coloquial, podemos observar uno de los ámbitos más diferenciales y, por lo tanto, identitarios en cada una de esas comunidades; de hecho, para este artículo se propone analizar, concretamente, el léxico coloquial argentino. Siguiendo esta búsqueda lingüística de lo propio, se ha trabajado sobre un contexto donde el registro sea actual, popular y coloquial, como es el caso del ámbito humorístico. De esta manera, nos proponemos en este trabajo encontrar aquellas voces propias del …
Intratumoral Heterogeneity, Its Contribution to Therapy Resistance and Methodological Caveats to Assessment
2014
Cancer is one of the most urgent health issues of today. According to WHO, the number of cancer cases is expected to increase by 75% in the next two decades (1). Despite some remarkable achievements in the fields of cancer prevention and early detection, the goal of developing effective anti-cancer therapies still remains unmet. Tumor recurrence due to treatment resistance is the most common cause of death from cancer. Delineating cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying tumor recurrence is of prime importance for the ability to improve the efficacy of existing therapies and develop new strategies to cancer treatment.
Analyse spectrale et texturale de données à haute résolution pour la détection automatique des maladies de la vigne
2019
‘Flavescence dorée’ is a contagious and incurable disease present on the vine leaves. In order to contain the infection, the regulations require growers to control each of the vine rows and to remove the suspect vine plants. This monitoring is done on foot during the harvest and mobilizes many people during a strategic period for viticulture. In order to solve this problem, the DAMAV project (Automatic detection of Vine Diseases) aims to develop a solution for automated detection of vine diseases using a micro-drone. The goal is to offer a turnkey solution for wine growers. This tool will allow the search for potential foci, and then more generally any type of vine diseases detectable on th…
Organisational and individual resources as antecedents of older nursing professionals’ organisational commitment : Investigating the mediating effect…
2021
Aim and objectives To investigate how organisational and individual resources are linked to older (50+) nursing professionals’ organisational commitment, and to examine the possible mediating role of the active use of selection, optimisation and compensation (SOC) strategies. Background Many healthcare organisations need to find ways to retain their older nursing professionals due to nursing shortage. Design To test a set of hypotheses, cross-sectional survey data (n = 396) were used. Data were analysed using correlation analysis and partial least-squares structural equation modelling. STROBE Statement for cross-sectional studies has been followed in this study. Results The results exhibite…
Causation and Effectuation in the Foreign Market Entry and Selection of Software SMEs
2012
Current research emphasizes several factors impacting on SME internationalization. However, it remains unclear that how entrepreneurs in SMEs think and implement their internationalization and select target countries for foreign operations. In this qualitative case study, foreign market selection and entries of five Finnish software firms are analyzed by using the theory of causation and effectuation. The findings imply that software SMEs used more causation logic in their foreign market selection and effectuation logic in their foreign market entries. The case firms that followed causation logic in FMS entered more distant countries. peerReviewed
Spatial Memory Drives Foraging Strategies of Wolves, but in Highly Individual Ways
2022
The ability of wild animals to navigate and survive in complex and dynamic environments depends on their ability to store relevant information and place it in a spatial context. Despite the centrality of spatial memory, and given our increasing ability to observe animal movements in the wild, it is perhaps surprising how difficult it is to demonstrate spatial memory empirically. We present a cognitive analysis of movements of several wolves (Canis lupus) in Finland during a summer period of intensive hunting and den-centered pup-rearing. We tracked several wolves in the field by visiting nearly all GPS locations outside the den, allowing us to identify the species, location and timing of ne…
Financial Aspects of Cervical Disc Arthroplasty: A Narrative Review of Recent Literature
2020
Recently, there has been significant interest in understanding the cost-effectiveness of treatments in spine surgery as health care systems in the United States move toward value-based care and alternative payment models. Previous studies have shown comparable outcomes of cervical disc arthroplasty (CDA) and anterior cervical discectomy fusion; however, there is a lack of consensus on the cost-effectiveness of CDA to support full adoption. Evidence of the limitations of these cost-analysis studies also exists in the literature, including industry funding, potential selection bias, and varying methods of calculating value. The goal of this narrative review is to provide an overview of the co…
Phylogeny, epidemiology and microhabitat preferences of lungworms (Pseudaliidae) in cetaceans from teh Western Mediterranean
2023
A pesar de tener una cierta reputación negativa, los parásitos pueden ofrecer una información importante sobre sus hospedadores, habiendo sido reconocidos como herramientas valiosas en varios estudios que investigan el comportamiento (Balbuena y Raga 1991), la salud (Aznar et al. 2005; Gkafas et al. 2020), la dieta (Dailey y Otto 1982), la migración (Ten et al. 2022), la estructura social (Balbuena et al. 1995) o la discriminación de stocks de cetáceos (Aznar et al. 1995). Los helmintos que parasitan a los cetáceos se pueden separar en cuatro grupos distintos: acantocéfalos (20 spp.), cestodos (38 spp.), digeneos (54 spp.) y nematodos (62 spp.). De éstos, los nematodos son los más diversos …
Cardenolide variation within and among natural populations of Digitalis obscura
1999
Summary Cardenolide content in 49 wild-growing Digitalis obscura plants from six natural populations on the Iberian Peninsula was determined by HPLC. Series A and B glycosides were the predominant cardenolides in all samples, but absolute values varied among and within populations. Hierarchic analysis of variance showed that the proportion of variation attributable to individuals was significantly higher than that attributable to population differences. Furthermore, analyses from greenhouse-grown plants, generated from seeds collected from selected parental genotypes, attributed nearly all the variability in cardenolide content to single plants. Some individual plants showed a leaf content …
