Changes in the Standard of Living in the EU Member States between 2005 and 2012, with Particular Emphasis on Poland and the Czech Republic
2016
This chapter is dedicated to the issues relating to changes in the standard of living recorded in 25 EU countries, in particular in Poland and the Czech Republic. Given the availability of comparable and relevant statistical data, the standard of living was studied between 2005 and 2012. The study was conducted with the use of taxonomic method – Hellwig’s synthetic measure. The results indicated that in 2012 Poland and the Czech Republic recorded a growth in the standard of living compared to 2005. Between 2005 and 2008, Poland was in the group of countries with a relatively low standard of living. It was not until the 2012, that it entered the group of countries with a moderate standard of…
Hunting for new physics signals in the LHC era
2021
Actualment, el ME de física de partícules és capaç d’explicar satisfactòriament tres de les quatre interaccions fonamentals de la matèria: fortes, febles i electromagnètiques. Tot i això, hi han molts aspectes que aquesta fantàstica teoria no és capaç d’explicar i, sens dubte, ha d’haver alguna cosa més enllà d’aquesta teoria. En aquesta tesi es pretén descobrir si hi ha algun indici a les dades actuals dels acceleradors que suggerisca l’existència de nova física (NF). Pretenem, per tant, determinar fins a quin punt alguns dels models de NF que han sigut proposats a la literatura poden ser plausibles tenint en compte les dades actuals. D’aquesta forma, serem capaços de trobar restriccions s…
La conformità dei prodotti agli standard tecnici tra tutela del consumatore e limiti alla responsabilità del fabbricante
2022
La crescente rilevanza assunta dalla normazione tecnica nell’ambito della disciplina della sicurezza dei prodotti si riflette su plurimi profili che investono sia la responsabilità del fabbricante per i danni cagionati da un prodotto non conforme, e quindi difettoso, sia la più complessa questione concernente la responsabilità per i danni derivanti dall’utilizzo di un prodotto conforme agli standard legislativi, ma nondimeno pericoloso. Proprio nell’ambito di questa peculiare questione si riscontra un rinnovato interesse per il severo regime di responsabilità contemplato dall’art. 2050 c.c. che da una parte fornisce una maggiore tutela al consumatore, ma, dall’altra, costituisce un ostacolo…
De la standardisation à la normalisation de la gestion médicalisée à l'hôpital : L’apport de la méthode de compensation structurelle et conjoncturelle
1996
Utilization of GHM in budget allocation leads to a reduction of strategic behaviors and restores equity between hospitals. However, heterogeneousness of GHM, with subgroups, is also generating perverse effects. The contractual economical analysis, applied to the statistical modelization of Quantin et al. (1995), underlines how the opportunist behaviors can be reduced. As the PMSI is almost unanimously adopted and considered as an irreversible investment, this approach generates questions on ways to improve the tool. The ultimate goal is to move from standardized costs tonormalized (optimized) costs for maximum efficiency of the tool. Finally, this statistical analysis generates a financial …
Psychiatrists' Attitudes Toward Disruptive New Technologies: Mixed-Methods Study
2018
Background Recent discoveries in the fields of machine learning (ML), Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA), computerized adaptive testing (CAT), digital phenotype, imaging, and biomarkers have brought about a new paradigm shift in medicine. Objective The aim of this study was to explore psychiatrists’ perspectives on this paradigm through the prism of new clinical decision support systems (CDSSs). Our primary objective was to assess the acceptability of these new technologies. Our secondary objective was to characterize the factors affecting their acceptability. Methods A sample of psychiatrists was recruited through a mailing list. Respondents completed a Web-based survey. A quantitative…
Il questionario SCIA per la valutazione delle buone prassi nelle comunità per minori: analisi preliminari e proposte per una versione breve.
2014
Le comunità residenziali possono essere considerate come Set(ting)(Giannone et al., 2012; Bruschetta, Giunta, 2009), specialistici contesti di “cura”. La conoscenza dell’organizzazione, strutturale e teorico-clinica, di tali contesti è essenziale per avviare un processo di riflessione, che possa metterne in luce le effettive condizioni di “terapeuticità” (Moos 1980, 2012; Van der Helm, 2009, 2011). Il questionario Standard Comunità Infanzia e Adolescenza – SCIA (Giannone, Guarnaccia, Bruschetta, 2012) elaborato dalla versione italiana del manuale Standard di Servizio per Comunità Terapeutiche per l’Infanzia e l’Adolescenza della Community of Communities (O’Sullivan & Paget, 2009; Vigorelli …
Linee guida per le comunita’ per minori. Uno strumento per la definizione di standard di funzionamento.
2012
Le comunità e le strutture residenziali si possono connotare come “setting terapeutici”, capaci di generare un clima di spessore affettivo, sviluppare nuove, sicure e funzionali possibilità di esperienze interpersonali, assicurare un regolare svolgimento del percorso di crescita e la creazione di uno spazio mentale dedicato all’elaborazione di un progetto per il minore (Giannone, 2005; Brunori, Raggi, 2007; Bastianoni, Taurino, 2009). Il network della Community of Communities lavora ad un processo sistematico di miglioramento della qualità delle Comunità terapeutiche per bambini e adolescenti attraverso la formulazione di standard grazie ai quali le equipe e gli utenti delle comunità posson…
Lonoctocog alfa (rVIII-SingleChain) for the treatment of haemophilia A
2017
Introduction: The administration of factor VIII (FVIII) concentrates on-demand or on long-term prophylaxis is the effective and safe standard of care of patients with hemophilia A (HA). Development of neutralizing antibodies against exogenous FVIII and the short half-life of the current available products remain major challenges. There is currently a great interest towards newer FVIII products with the goal of reducing the inhibitor risk and increasing the half-life. Area covered: In this review, the authors describe the efficacy and safety of rVIII-SingleChain (Lonoctocog alfa), the first and only single chain recombinant FVIII (rFVIII) molecule developed for the prevention and treatment o…
The accreditation system of Italian medical residency programs: fostering quality and sustainability of the National Health Service
2020
Summary. Background and aim: In June 2017, University and Health Ministries jointly enacted a decree imple-menting a new accreditation system for the Italian post-graduate medical schools (residency programs). We report the innovations introduced through the reform. Methods: Universities were called to submit post-gradu-ate medical school projects to the National Observatory on medical residency programs, the inter-institutional committee responsible for the entire accreditation process, through an interactive web platform. The adherence to minimum standards, requirements and the performances were measured. After this first assessment, universities were asked to provide programs of improvem…
LE JUGEMENT PROFESSIONNEL EN AUDIT : ENQUETE AUPRES DES ASSOCIES SIGNATAIRES
2013
The audit process is dependant on facts and concepts but it is also contingent on specific situations. Contingency is not only material, it is also ontological. We suggest that audit process is questionable only since its process is neither perfectly knowledgeable nor deterministic. Audit process is strongly dependant on the judgment faculty, i.e. the capacity to relate facts, norms, concepts and human moral values. Through 22 interviews with associate auditors, we present a complex picture of the professional judgment and the factors that affect or shape its exercise. In order to enhance the audit judgment, we suggest to reinforce the information and the communication of the elements relat…
