E-Sports y brecha de género: la percepción de las profesionales españolas

2019

The present paper aims to identify the causes of under-representation of women in E-sports. According to a genre perspective, interest in videogames at the amateur level is quite similar. However, in its professional level, female participation becomes very limited. The fact that physical effort is irrelevant (a requirement for ?traditional sports?) could be considered a variable that would negatively affect greater to equality in the conditions of access and participation of women in electronic sports. Against any predictions, the data on the presence of women are elocuent: few women, with much lower wages than men to remunerate same skills, and a general complaint by the female profession…

MTOR inhibitor-based combination therapies for pancreatic cancer

2018

Background: Although the mechanistic target of rapamycin (MTOR) kinase, included in the mTORC1 and mTORC2 signalling hubs, has been demonstrated to be active in a significant fraction of patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), the value of the kinase as a therapeutic target needs further clarification. Methods: We used Mtor floxed mice to analyse the function of the kinase in context of the pancreas at the genetic level. Using a dual-recombinase system, which is based on the flippase-FRT (Flp-FRT) and Cre-loxP recombination technologies, we generated a novel cellular model, allowing the genetic analysis of MTOR functions in tumour maintenance. Cross-species validation and pha…

Identifying Critical Determinants of ‘Digital Customer Services’ Usage – An Exploratory Study

2019

Digital technology has reinvented retail business as well as commerce. This study aims to examine consumers’ perception and usage of digital customer services (DCS) and investigate three significant post-adoption and marketing consequences: simplicity, awareness, and usefulness. Using a purposeful sampling technique, 10 semi-structured, in-depth interviews were conducted with banking customers in Finland in January 2019. The research findings suggest that simplicity regarding DCS occupies a key position in their prolonged use, while awareness and usability are also important. This study offers some valuable theoretical and managerial implications and suggests an agenda for future research. …

La tipografia e l’architettura non hanno mai smesso di amarsi

2023

Era appena ventottenne Victor Hugo quando scriveva con la sfrontatezza della sua giovane età quello che aveva dilatato a dismisura gli orizzonti della sua conoscenza, l’invenzione della stampa, il più grande avvenimento della storia, la rivoluzione madre che avrebbe consentito al pensiero umano di cambiare forma trovandone una nuova ed eterna.

Self-regulatory efficacy and sources of efficacy in elementary school pupils: Self-regulatory experiences in a population sample and pupils with atte…

2019

In this study, we examined self-regulatory efficacy and sources of self-efficacy (mastery experiences, vicarious experiences, social persuasion and physiological/emotional states) and the relationships between self-efficacy and its sources among elementary school pupils. Two groups were compared: a population sample (PS, N = 1284) and pupils with difficulties in attention and executive functions (AED, N = 61). Data gathered from self-report questionnaires indicated that pupils in the PS group had more positive efficacy beliefs and mastery experiences and fewer negative physiological/emotional states than the AED group. Analyses showed strong connections between sources and self-regulatory e…

Interferon α interferes with immunological tolerance.

2013

The ability of regulatory T cells (Tregs) to promote immunological tolerance represents an important obstacle in cancer immunotherapy. We have recently discovered that the clinically established immunotherapeutic agent interferon α (IFNα) inactivates the suppressive functions of human Tregs. Here, we outline the mechanisms whereby IFNα mediates this important function and discuss its therapeutic implications for cancer immunotherapy.

Estudio de las ampollas conjuntivales tras la ciruga filtrante con válvula ExPRESS mediante topografía de coherencia óptica de segmento anterior

2021

La cirugía con implante ExPRESS es muy utilizada en el tratamiento del glaucoma. A pesar de esto existen pocos estudios que evalúen la morfología de las ampollas de filtración resultantes tras su implante; por esta razón utilizamos la tomografía de coherencia óptica de segmento anterior para analizarlas. Se realizó un estudio prospectivo, consecutivo no aleatorizado donde se estudiaron 36 ampollas de filtración derivadas de la implantación del dispositivo ExPRESS. Los pacientes fueron evaluados el primer, tercer, sexto, noveno y duodécimo mes tras la cirugía. Se creó una base de datos con las siguientes variables: agudeza visual mejor corregida (AVMC), presión intraocular (PIO), altura de l…
