Objective, Noninvasive Evaluation of Velopharyngeal Function in Cleft and Noncleft Patients
1998
Objective The purpose of this study was to investigate a new diagnostic method that provides an approach to noninvasive, objective measurement of velopharyngeal movement by acoustic determination of epipharyngeal volume changes with velopharyngeal muscle function. Design This was a case control study, using consecutive samples. Setting This study took place at the Cleft Palate Rehabilitation Center of the University of Mainz, Germany. Patients Subjects were 29 consecutive cleft lip and palate (CLP) patients and 31 controls (21 patients with dysgnathia and 10 healthy volunteers). Intervention A series of transnasal acoustic measurements (pressure wave: 55 dB for 2 milliseconds) of epipharyng…
Detection of enteric adenoviruses 40 and 41 in stool specimens by monoclonal antibody-based enzyme immunoassays
1996
To examine the role of enteric adenoviruses (Ad40 and Ad41) in children with acute gastroenteritis, we evaluated 273 children with diarrhoea and 137 without enteric symptoms in Palermo, Italy, during an 8-month period. Stools were tested by two home-made monoclonal-based ELISAs to detected genus-specific adenovirus antigen and to type Ad40 and Ad41. Twenty-five samples (6.1%) were found to contain adenovirus, 18 of which were grown in Graham 293 and in HEp-2 cells. Ad40 and Ad41 were detected in 2.6% of children with diarrhoea and in none in the control group, while non-enteric adenoviruses were obtained from both patients (3.2%) and controls (6.5%). Samples containing Ad40 and Ad41 were po…
Isolation, structure elucidation, and biological evaluation of the unusual heterodimer chrysoxanthone from the ascomycete IBWF11-95A
2009
Chrysoxanthone, an unusual heterodimer of blennolide A and 2-hydroxychrysophanol linked through a diaryl ether bridge, was isolated from mycelia of the ascomycete IBWF11-95A grown in submerged culture. Its structure was elucidated by two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy. The metabolite shows antibacterial activity against different species with MIC values between 2.5 and 20 μg/mL while also inhibiting the growth of several fungi.
Direct synthesis of C3-mono-functionalized oxindoles from N-unprotected 2-oxindole and their antileishmanial activity.
2014
A novel approach for the synthesis of unprecedented C3-mono-functionalized indolin-2-ones is reported, starting from 2-oxindole and chalcones. The reactions proceed regioselectively under mild conditions, without di- and tri-alkylated side products. The new compounds have been evaluated in vitro for their antiproliferative effects against the protozoan Leishmania infantum. Interestingly, they appear able to kill L. infantum promastigotes and amastigotes, without significant cytotoxic effects.
El rol del modelo de las competencias en la reconfiguración meritocrática de las pautas de negociación salarial en empresas argentinas: continuidades…
2020
The development of new models of work organization and the complementary advance of flexible guidelines for the use of the labor force had as a correlate a profound change in techniques for the evaluation of workers. Thus, the typical model of Fordism, based on qualifications, was replaced by a different one based on competencies, whereby the strong relationship of the former was abandoned with the determination of the technical knowledge required for each job to move to a system which the priority is placed in the individual attitude. The consequent individualization of performance evaluations can lead to a possible loss of objectivity. In this article we develop a theoretical comparison b…
Compétences acquises et requises des diplômés de bac+5
2015
Quelles sont les compétences acquises en formation par les diplômés de l'enseignement supérieur et quelles sont celles, en regard, qui leur sont demandées pour exercer leur emploi ? A travers une évaluation, nécessairement subjective, de leurs compétences par les jeunes diplômés eux-mêmes, les écarts entre l'acquis en formation et le requis dans l'emploi sont mis en évidence. Les résultats présentés dans ce document s'appuient sur l'interrogation, au printemps 2014, d'un échantillon expérimental de l'enquête Génération 2010 constitué de diplômés de bac+5 interrogés par Internet. Ils portent sur les compétences générales et les compétences spécifiques, liées à la spécialité de formation, et …
La valeur des compétences dépasse t'elle la valeur des diplômes ?: les enseignements de trois enquêtes internationales sur l'insertion des diplômés d…
2012
Cette communication est une contribution aux débats concernant la valeur des diplômes et la situation de déclassement sur le marché du travail. L'originalité est de comparer les compétences acquises et requises dans l'emploi à partir d'une auto-évaluation réalisée par les jeunes diplômés de l'enseignement supérieur dans neuf pays d'Europe, au Japon et au Canada.

A model for managing and evaluating solar radiation for indoor thermal comfort
2007
Thermal comfort of people occupying indoor spaces depends, to a large extent, on the direct component of solar radiation incident on the human body. In turn, even the diffuse component of the solar radiation could affect the thermal sensations of people. Despite this evidence, at the present there is a lack in the availability of simple and reliable methods capable of taking into account the influence of the solar radiation on thermal balance in the human body. In this work a comprehensive method is presented for the computation of the mean radiant temperature of people in thermal moderate indoor environments in the presence of solar radiation. The effects produced on the amount of solar ra…
Disability and work: fitness for work judgement.
2006
The role of physicians, in particular those dealing with health promotion in the workplace, takes on a specific meaning in relation to the difficulties that disabled people encounter both in order to reach the workplace and to reconcile their working activity with the difficulties that result from their condition. Observing the data concerning employment of disabled persons in Italy, it becomes dramatically evident that among the disabled subjects of working age only 17% are employed. OBJECTIVE: The objective of the occupational health physician is to recognise the impairment, study the disability and, possibly, eliminate or reduce the handicap. Achieving this target is difficult, and there…
