Sapieżyńska ochrona dóbr Potockich w starostwie owruckim w latach 80. i 90. XVII wieku: przyczynek do badań nad współpracą rodzin magnackich w czasac…
2019
Sapiehowie i Potoccy byli jednymi z najbardziej wpływowych rodzin w dawnej Rzeczypospolitej. Druga z wymienionych familii posiadała liczne dobra na Ukrainie, które rujnowały częste przemarsze żołnierzy litewskich. Władzę nad nimi sprawował hetman wielki Kazimierz Jan Sapieha. Zasadniczym celem artykułu jest rozpatrzenie kwestii dotyczącej możliwej ochrony przez hetmana Sapiehę dóbr Potockich w zamian za ich głosy poparcia na sejmie i obronę w czasie ataków na litewskiego dowódcę wywołanych jego absencją pod Wiedniem.
A bounded version of bosonic creation and annihilation operators and their related quasi-coherent states
2007
Coherent states are usually defined as eigenstates of an unbounded operator, the so-called annihilation operator. We propose here possible constructions of {\em quasi-coherent states}, which turn out to be {\em quasi} eigenstate of a \underline{bounded} operator related to an annihilation-like operator. We use this bounded operator to construct a sort of modified harmonic oscillator and we analyze the dynamics of this oscillator from an algebraic point of view.
Postoperative pain management in non-traumatic emergency general surgery: WSES-GAIS-SIAARTI-AAST guidelines
2022
Abstract Background Non-traumatic emergency general surgery involves a heterogeneous population that may present with several underlying diseases. Timeous emergency surgical treatment should be supplemented with high-quality perioperative care, ideally performed by multidisciplinary teams trained to identify and handle complex postoperative courses. Uncontrolled or poorly controlled acute postoperative pain may result in significant complications. While pain management after elective surgery has been standardized in perioperative pathways, the traditional perioperative treatment of patients undergoing emergency surgery is often a haphazard practice. The present recommended pain management g…
Prevention of Functional Decline by Reframing the Role of Nursing Homes?
2017
Institutionalization is generally a consequence of functional decline driven by physical limitations, cognitive impairments, and/or loss of social supports. At this stage, intervention to reverse functional losses is often too late. To be more effective, geriatric medicine must evolve to intervene at an earlier stage of the disability process. Could nursing homes (NHs) transform from settings in which many residents dwell to settings in which the NH residents and those living in neighboring communities benefit from staff expertise to enhance quality of life and maintain or slow functional decline? A task force of clinical researchers met in Toulouse on December 2, 2015, to address some of t…
Epidemiology of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis: Implications for Liver Transplantation.
2018
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) affects 25% of the global adult population with a range of 13.5% in Africa and 31.8% in the Middle East. Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is closely associated with a constellation of metabolic comorbidities which include: obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and hypercholesteremia. In fact, the increasing number of metabolic comorbidities not only increases the prevalence of NAFLD but also places patients at higher risk for progressive liver disease. As such, NAFLD is presently among the top etiologies for hepatocellular carcinoma and an indication for liver transplantation (LT) in the United States. Therefore, the following recommendati…
Association between Intake of Energy and Macronutrients and Memory Impairment Severity in US Older Adults, National Health and Nutrition Examination …
2020
Without a cure, dementia affects about 50 million people worldwide. Understanding the effects of dietary habits, a key lifestyle behavior, on memory impairment is critical to inform early behavioral modification to delay further memory loss and progression to dementia. We examined the associations of total energy intake and energy intake from macronutrients with memory impairment among older US adults using data from the nationally representative National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey study 2011&ndash
House Housing. An untimely history of architecture and real estate In nineteen episodes Housing / Una storia inattuale dell’architettura e dei beni i…
2014
House Housing è il titolo della mostra allestita dal Temple Hoyne Buell Center for the Study of American Architecture al secondo piano di Casa Muraro, nei locali di proprietà della Columbia University, durante il mese di giugno 2014, e che coinciderà con l’apertura della Quattordi- cesima Mostra Internazionale di Architettura di Venezia. Realizza- ta da un gruppo di ricercatori della Columbia, la mostra è allestita in forma di open house e presenta gli inizi di un progetto di lunga durata incentrato sull’analisi critica del coinvolgimento dell’architettura con il mercato immobiliare, in special modo nel campo della progettazione residenziale. La mostra è una risposta—seppur non sollecitata—…
Josephson Traveling Wave Parametric Amplifiers as Non-Classical Light Source for Microwave Quantum Illumination
2021
Abstract Detection of low-reflectivity objects can be enriched via the so-called quantum illumination procedure. In order that this quantum procedure outperforms classical detection protocols, entangled states of microwave radiation are initially required. In this paper, we discuss the role of Josephson Traveling Wave Parametric Amplifiers (JTWPAs), based on circuit-QED components, as suitable sources of a two-mode squeezed vacuum state, a special signal-idler entangled state. The obtained wide bandwidth makes the JTWPA an ideal candidate for generating quantum radiation in quantum metrology and information processing applications.
Valdības loma mazo un vidējo uzņēmumu attīstībā Baltijas valstīs
2019
Mazajiem un vidējiem uzņēmumiem ir nozīmīga loma valstu attīstībā visā pasaulē. Uzņēmumu konkurētspēja ir liela daļa no visas valsts konkurētspējas. Tāpēc īpaša uzmanība jāpievērš mazo un vidējo uzņēmumu attīstībai. Darba mērķis ir novērtēt dažādu atbalsta pasākumu ietekmi uz mazo un vidējo uzņēmumu attīstību un sniegumu, lai risinātu problēmars, kas kavē to veiksmīgu attīstību. Pētījuma teorētiskā daļa ietver dažādu autoru veiktos MVU raksturojumus, kā arī iespējamos atbalsta pasākumus. Lai risinātu šo tēmu, tika izmantota kvalitatīvo pētījuma metode. Tika aptaujāti eksperti uzņēmējdarbības jomā, pēc tam tos analizēja autors. Pētījuma secinājumi noder politikas veidotājiem, komercbankām un…
Electronic and optical properties of CeO 2 from first principles calculations
2016
International audience; First-principles calculations of the electronic structure of CeO2 nanoparticles (NPs) were performed to investigate published experimental data obtained by different spectroscopies. The main features of the valence and conduction bands have been analyzed from the total and partial density of states. Several functionals were applied to interpret and quantify the optical properties, including the dielectric function, extinction coefficient and refractive index. It is found that the on-site hybrid functional B3PW91 modelled most suitably the band gap region of CeO2 NPs and consequently gave a more accurate band gap value. It also agreed very well with the experimental v…
