Early developmental alterations of low-Mg2+ -induced epileptiform activity in the intact corticohippocampal formation of the newborn mouse in vitro.
2005
Abstract The generation, propagation and pharmacological properties of low-Mg 2+ -induced epileptiform activity were examined in the intact corticohippocampal formation (CHF) of the newborn (P0–4) mouse in vitro. Multi-site field potential recordings in dentate gyrus (DG), CA3, CA1, entorhinal cortex (EC) and temporal cortex (TC) revealed in 0.2 mM Mg 2+ -containing ACSF a stable pattern of spontaneous epileptiform activity consisting of recurrent ictal-like events (ILEs) and interictal events (IEs). Although this activity could be consistently observed as early as P0, ILEs were smaller in amplitude, less frequent and showed a slower onset in P0–2 as compared to P3–4 animals. In all age gro…
Estudio de memoria a largo plazo en pacientes con epilepsia temporal intervenidos quirúrgicamente: memoria semántica y olvido a largo plazo acelerado
2022
La epilepsia focal más frecuente es aquella epilepsia cuyo foco epileptógeno está localizado en el lóbulo temporal medial y es secundaria a una esclerosis con atrofia de la región amígdalo-hipocámpica, con una red epileptógena que abarca la porción anterior del lóbulo temporal. En ocasiones los pacientes requieren de un tratamiento quirúrgico que incluye la resección unilateral de ambas regiones, tanto del polo anterior, como del complejo amígdala-hipocampo. Estas estructuras han demostrado tener gran importancia para el procesamiento de la memoria semántica (región anterotemporal) y episódica (región amígdalo-hipocámpica), por lo que los pacientes que son sometidos a esta intervención suel…
Desempleo y crisis Económica. Los casos de España e Italia
2018
En este artículo se analiza la diferente reacción que los mercados laborales italiano y español han tenido ante la crisis económica: la tasa de paro italiana entre 2006 y 2012, ha crecido relativamente poco (pasando del 7,6 al 10,9%) mientras que la es-pañola se ha casi triplicado, pasando del 9 al 24,4%. Para ello se han analizado datos relativos a: el mercado del trabajo, la situación socioeconómica y la legislación exis-tente. Tras el estudio realizado, tres parecen ser las discrepancias más relevantes: 1) las diferencias en las tasas de actividad femenina entre ambos países; 2) la menor apertura del mercado laboral italiano en los últimos 20 años; y, 3) la diferente legis-lación sobre d…
Impugnación judicial de altas médicas: puntos críticos
2017
El procedimiento especial de impugnación de altas médicas, regulado en el art. 140 de la Ley Reguladora de la Jurisdicción Social, es una modalidad procesal de seguridad social dirigida a un control judicial del alta médica. El diseño del proceso sería aparentemente sencillo; es un proceso urgente, de tramitación preferente, que finaliza con una sentencia no susceptible de recurso de suplicación, para evitar una demora incompatible con el objeto del litigio. Pese a la simplicidad procesal, en su seno aparecen múltiples problemas interpretativos y aplicativos. En una necesaria selección, se abordarán las siguientes cuestiones: 1º) Algunos problemas en las diferentes vías de reclamación previ…
DERIVAZIONE DEI MODELLI PREVISIONALI PER LE ROTATORIE URBANE. UN CASO STUDIO,
2008
Come è noto, i modelli previsionali d’incidentalità (in campo internazionale conosciuti come Safety Performance Functions) vengono ormai da tempo impiegati nelle valutazioni di sicurezza; ad essi è affidato il compito di condensare le conoscenze pregresse sulla sicurezza di entità (tronchi stradali, intersezioni, etc.) simili a quelli in considerazione. Quando integrati in una procedura di stima empirico-bayesiana, i modelli previsionali d’incidentalità concorrono alla correzione della distorsione dovuta alla regressione verso la media ed all’accrescimento della precisione della stima. Nella presente memoria viene presentato un esempio di determinazione di tali modelli per il caso di rotato…
About time
2019
Purpose The purpose of this paper seeks to develop a motivation-based complementary framework for temporally dynamic user preferences to facilitate optimal timing in web personalisation. It also aims to highlight the benefits of considering user motivation when addressing issues in temporal dynamics. Design/methodology/approach Through theory, a complementary framework and propositions for motivation-based temporal dynamics for further testing are created. The framework is validated by feeding back findings, whereas some of the propositions are validated through an experiment. Findings The suggested framework distinguishes two ways (identifying/learning and shifting) of using a motive-base…
Giant cell arteritis associated with chronic active Epstein-Barr virus infection
2013
Giant cell arteritis is an inflammatory vasculopathy that preferentially affects medium-sized and large arteries. A viral cause has been suspected but not confirmed in polymyalgia rheumatica and giant-cell arteritis. We report the case of a 81-year-old female who suffered from chronic active Epstein-Barr virus infection and developed giant cell temporal arteritis.
The arterial blood supply of the temporomandibular joint: an anatomical study and clinical implications
2013
Purpose: The aim of this study was to analyze three-dimensional images of the arterial supply to the temporomandibular joint. Materials and Methods: Ten patients (five men and five women, mean age 36 years) without signs or symptoms of temporomandibular disorders, who underwent contrast-enhanced computed tomographic (CT) scanning with intravenous contrast, were studied. The direct volume rendering technique of CT images was used, and a data set of images to visualize the vasculature of the human temporomandibular joint in three dimensions was created. After elaboration of the data through post-processing, the arterial supply of the temporomandibular joint was studied. Results: The analysis …
Temporal Stability of Music Preferences as an Indicator of Their Underlying Conditionings
2013
To emphasize the substantial impact of both cognitive and emotional processes on the development of music preferences, such definitions are formed which define preferences as a set of emotional-rational attitudes, which in turn affect the perception of a piece of music. It can be assumed that music preferences are dependent on the current situational and emotional aspects. Accepting this assumption, the absolute stability of the preferences of particular musical genres will be relatively low. As an alternative to the above reasoning, it can be assumed that the high temporal stability of the musical genres preferences may indicate deeper than, for instance, related to the current mood determ…
Superwomen? Young sporting women, temporality and learning not to be perfect
2020
New forms of neoliberal femininity create demanding horizons of expectation for young women. For talented athletes, these pressures are intensified by the establishment of dual-career discourses that construct the combination of high-performance sport and education as a normative, ‘ideal’ pathway. The pressed time perspective inherent in dual-careers requires athletes to employ a variety of time-related skills, especially for young women who aim to live up to ‘superwoman’ ideals that valorise ‘success’ in all walks of life. Drawing on existential phenomenology, and in-depth interviews with 10 talented Finnish sportswomen (aged 19–22), we explored their experiences of lived time when pursui…
