Correction: One-pot synthesis of a new generation of hybrid bisphosphonate polyoxometalate gold nanoparticles as antibiofilm agents
2019
A reduced polyoxovanadate functionalized with bisphosphonate molecules was synthesized and used to prepare in one step hybrid organic–inorganic polyoxometalate decorated gold nanoparticles. These new composites were shown to strongly inhibit P. aeruginosa and S. epidermidis biofilm growth, with the three components constituting the nanoparticles (Au0 core, vanadium and alendronate) acting synergistically.
Social Media Influencers as Mediators of Commercial Messages

Women's Emotions Towards the Mobile Phone
2012
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether women's emotions associate differently with the mobile phone depending on the type of family in which they live. James A. Russell's circumplex model of affect which explores four main emotional dimensions, excitement, distress, depression and contentment, was applied. The article is based on the female sub-sample (N = 3,704) of nationally representative survey data collected from Italy, France, the UK, Germany and Spain (N = 7,255) in 2009. The results show that it is women living in blended families who seem to associate more distress and less feelings of contentment with the mobile phone than women living in other types of family. peerRe…
Biodiverse green roofs in Mediterranean climate. Input and lessons learned from Germany and Switzerland

Background: The STEP 5 trial (NCT03693430) investigated once-weekly (OW) subcutaneous semaglutide 2.4 mg vs placebo for the treatment of overweight/obesity in adults over 2 years. Methods: Adults w ith B MI ≥ 3 0 k g/m2, or ≥27 kg/m2 and ≥ 1 weight-related comorbidity, without diabetes, were randomized 1:1 to semaglutide 2.4 mg OW or placebo for 104 weeks. Co-primary endpoints related to body weight (BW) changes. Control of eating questionnaire (CoEQ) was assessed in a subgroup from Canada/USA, with scores from 19 individual items grouped into 4 domains: craving control, craving for savory, craving for sweet, or positive mood. P values for exploratory CoEQ data are unadjusted for multiplici…

Darba analīzei, galvenokārt tika izmantotas tādu autoru kā Swales (1990)un Bhatia (1993) teorijas. Iegūtie dati tika analizēti, izmantojot kvalitatīvā pētījuma metodi ar kvantitatīviem elementiem. Analīzei tika izvēlēti divdesmit BBC biznesa interneta ziņu raksti. Pētījuma rezul…
Wizja śpiewu liturgicznego w ujęciu ks. Stanisława Stephana (1867-1926) - śląskiego pioniera ruchu liturgicznego
2022
The representatives of the liturgical movement knew that the renewal of the religious life of the faithful required a proper definition of the essence of the liturgy and of what the Church is. Then, they not only distanced themselves from the rubricist view of the liturgy, but also developed its new understanding and the importance of the faithful's active participation in celebrations. This study attempts to demonstrate the Silesian liturgical movement through the prism of Fr Stanislaus Stephan's activity and his collaboration with the Benedictines from Krzeszów, with emphasis on the importance of liturgical singing in the celebrations of the Church. What is distinctive about the activity …
