Post extractive implant: evaluation of the critical aspects

2017

Purpose Nowadays, implant supported prosthetic rehabilitation is a reliable procedure to replace compromised or untreatable teeth. The purpose of this review is to explore the concept of post extractive implant and the indications for clinical practice through an analysis of recent studies in the literature. All the main factors that could influence the outcome of this treatment will also be considered. Materials and methods Focusing on the extraction-socket healing time, three different implant insertion protocols have been defined: Immediate implant placement (IIP), Early implant placement (EIP), Delayed implant placement (DIP). The entity of bone remodeling can be associated with differe…

“Arete-school” final report

2020

This report contains information regarding the postdoctoral project “Modernization of school education in Latvia through an innovative research-based program on 21st century competences and virtue ethics development supported by a virtual campus (ARETE-school)” (Project contract number: 1.1.1.2/ VIAA /1/16/071). The project was implemented between November 2017 and October 2020, and had a total cost of EUR 133.806 The output indicators of the project were largely reached: a new and sustainable post-doctoral position was created, 9 scientific articles and 3 research reports were published in indexed journals, a new technology, which could be commercialised, has been elaborated (the online pl…

Geografie letterarie dell'"umile Italia". Appunti per un'antologia

2016

Se si volessero declinare con solerzia maniacale le occorrenze del tema 'Italia' nella tradizione letteraria italiana, si dovrebbe forse prevedere un esito borgesiano: pressoché tutta la letteratura italiana ha a che fare, pure in modi e misure difformi, con la questione nazionale. Più ragionevolmente e più modestamente, questa antologia propone un compendio di testi poetici che hanno contribuito a codificare e tramandare quella nozione di 'Italia' con la quale tutt'oggi, pur con qualche difficoltà, continuiamo ad avere a che fare. Dal repertorio vastissimo di liriche dedicate alla nazione, si è scelto di selezionarne alcune tra le meno frequentate, fatte salve quelle per così dire irrinunc…

Applying systematic review search methods to the grey literature: a review of education and training courses on breastfeeding support for health prof…

2021

Abstract Background Currently, lactation training courses aimed at health professionals are important for informing and supporting mothers who are breastfeeding. In this review, we seek to analyze similarities and/or variations in course content, modes of delivery, costs, teaching style and learning strategies among courses. To our knowledge, a review of lactation training courses available worldwide is lacking. Thus, the aim of this review is to describe course models aimed at training health professionals in lactation support for mothers. Methods Through searching grey literature, training courses were obtained from several directories, including the Alaska Breastfeeding Coalition, Intern…

An Energy Autonomous and Battery-Free Measurement System for Ambient Light Power with Time Domain Readout Measurement

2021

Internet of Things (IoT) provides more and more adequate infrastructures for many applications and advanced services. This context promotes the ability to satisfy the growing demand for innovative measuring systems, in- creasingly popular with intelligent nodes, totally wireless, easy to install that require the least possible maintenance. This paper aims to contribute to the state-of-the-art with an energy-autonomous and battery-free measurement platform designed to measure the ambient light power when its level exceeds the Limit of Detection (LoD) threshold. The proposed system consists of a single photovoltaic transducer to harvest energy and simultaneously detect ambient light. The resu…

A Perturbation Approach to Continuous-Time Portfolio Selection Under Stochastic Investment Opportunities

2013

This paper studies portfolio selection in continuous-time models with stochastic investment opportunities. We consider asset allocation problems where preferences are specified as power utility derived from terminal wealth as well as consumption-savings problems with recursive utility Epstein-Zin preferences. The paper approximates the associated dynamic programming problem by perturbing the coefficients of the stochastic dynamics. We represent the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation as a series of partial differential equations that can be solved iteratively in closed-form through computer algebra software, at any desired accuracy.

La violazione del diritto dell’Unione europea come possibile difetto di giurisdizione?

2020

The reference no. 19598/20 by the Italian Supreme Court focuses upon the admissability, in terms of lack of jurisdiction, of actions brought against judgements rendered by the Consiglio di Stato acting in violation of EU law, in particular on the lack of preliminary reference under art. 267, c. 3, TFEU. It proposes as well the vexed question of interpretation of the notion of jurisdiction which seemed to have been settled by the Constitutional Court judgment no. 6 of 2018. The paper seeks a possible solution that can guarantee the "jurisdiction" of the Court of Justice with respect to EU law, leaving the jurisdictional division of the Italian procedural system unchanged.

Social Vision on Wet Nurses in the [Spanish] Newspaper “La Vanguardia” (1881-1908)

2017

Históricamente ha habido situaciones y momentos en que las madres han delegado el proceso de lactancia en nodrizas. En el siglo XIX las nodrizas fueron representadas en la prensa española reproduciendo los esquemas del modelo social androcéntrico imperante. Se pretende describir y categorizar la visión de la nodriza reflejada en la prensa española mediante el análisis de contenido de las fuentes periodísticas de este período. La conclusión alcanzada han sido que la prensa refleja la importancia social de la nodriza como un elemento normalizado en la sociedad con un papel fundamental en los aspectos demográficos de la sociedad, estableciendo una visión dual en función del grupo social al que…

Strategising IT service management through ITIL implementation: model and empirical test

2015

Research on the Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) lacks appropriate theories and models that capture the distinct characteristics and implications of the ITIL implementation practice. The purpose of this study is to close this gap. Based on a literature review, we develop and empirically validate a theoretical model: the ITIL Implementation Project Model. The model includes significant antecedents, which provide a foundation upon which an effective ITIL implementation project can be built, as well as the pertinent effects of implementing ITIL. The results contribute to the current research stream on the strategising of IT service management as well as to an improved under…
