Influencia de la instrumentación con lima única en la calidad de la obturación del sistema de conductos radiculares mediante la técnica de condensaci…
2015
1.- Introducción: el principal objetivo en la terapia endodóncica es simplificar los procedimientos con completa seguridad y eficacia. Como alternativa a los sistemas rotatorios multilima, se crearon los sistemas de lima única de rotación alternante, con el fin de reducir la fatiga cíclica para disminuir el riesgo de fractura de los instrumentos, la deformidad del conducto radicular, rapidez y simplicidad en la conformación. Posteriormente, aparecieron sistemas de lima única de rotación continua que también aumentaron la rapidez y la simplicidad. Con la finalidad de analizar la capacidad de conformar los conductos radiculares de estos sistemas endodóncicos se realizó este estudio. 2.- Objet…
Application of the Chinese Version of the BIS/BAS Scales in Participants With a Substance Use Disorder: An Analysis of Psychometric Properties and Co…
2020
Carver and White developed the Behavioral Inhibition/Behavioral Activation Scales (the BIS/BAS Scales) based on Reinforcement Sensitivity Theory proposed by Gray. Subsequent studies proposed that substance abuse was closely related to Behavioral Inhibition System (BIS) and Behavioral Activation System (BAS). However, researches on the psychometric properties of the BIS/BAS scales in clinical samples are scarce. The present study was conducted to analyze the applicability of the BIS/BAS scales in a sample suffering from a substance use disorder (SUD) and undergoing treatment in compulsory detoxification institutions (n = 1117). Meanwhile, 822 community residents were selected for comparison.…
Competition, Gender Equality, and Doping in Sports in the Red Queen Effect Perspective
2022
The nature of sports is characterized by a strong competitive component that generates inequalities among athletes at different levels, specifically in relation to gender, technology, and doping. These inequalities can be represented according to the Red Queen effect perspective, which has been previously hypothesized in other competitive environments (evolutionary biology and economics, for instance). The Red Queen effect considers each competitive environment to require a constant effort to maintain a position of competitive advantage in order reach the best result possible. Therefore, the aim of the current paper is to provide an innovative perspective for the understanding of competitio…
Les PDU des années 2000/2010 et leurs discours : une analyse diachronique et politologique prenant appui sur la textométrie
2017
National audience; De nombreuses disciplines cherchent à comprendre les raisons profondes qui motivent la mise en place de politiques urbaines et les discours les accompagnant 1. Cela dit, ces travaux de recherche se heurtent souvent à des problèmes de méthodologie. En effet, les méthodes « classiques » que sont les entretiens avec les acteurs, le travail sur archives, la passation de questionnaires auprès d’acteurs ou encore les expérimentations présentent chacune de fortes limites par rapport à l’ambition scientifique d’une analyse distanciée et systématisée de l’action publique urbaine et de ses discours.
Plasma Dynamics Characterization for Improvement of Resonantly Enhanced Harmonics Generation in Indium and Tin Laser-Produced Plasmas

Magnetic susceptibility spatial distribution as an indicator of soil pollution in the area of Opole city = Rozkład przestrzenny podatności magnetyczn…
2018
Magnetometria glebowa, polegająca na pomiarze podatności magnetycznej wierzchniej warstwy gleby, jest bardzo przydatną i coraz powszechniej stosowaną techniką monitorowania stanu gleb objętych wpływem antropopresji. Jak wynika z danych literaturowych, metoda ta wymaga dalszego udoskonalania, szczególnie w zakresie technik obrazowania danych magnetometrycznych. Celem badań była ocena przekształceń magnetycznych gleb na terenie miasta Opola (woj. opolskie) z zastosowaniem magnetometrii glebowej oraz trzech technik interpolacji danych magnetometrycznych (naturalnego sąsiedztwa NN, ważonych odwrotnych odległości IDW oraz krigingu zwykłego OK). Dane zostały zgromadzone podczas pomiarów terenowyc…
Effects of Polyacrylic Acid Pre-Treatment on Bonded-Dentine Interfaces Created with a Modern Bioactive Resin-Modified Glass Ionomer Cement and Subjec…
2018
Objectives: Resin-modified glass ionomer cements (RMGIC) are considered excellent restorative materials with unique therapeutic and anti-cariogenic activity. However, concerns exist regarding the use of polyacrylic acid as a dentine conditioner as it may influence the bonding performance of RMGIC. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different protocols for cycling mechanical stress on the bond durability and interfacial ultramorphology of a modern RMGIC applied to dentine pre-treated with/without polyacrylic acid conditioner (PAA). Methods: The RMGIC was applied onto human dentine specimens prepared with silicon-carbide (SiC) abrasive paper with or without the use of a PAA c…
The acute effects of different high-intensity conditioning activities on sprint performance differ between sprinters of different strength and power …
2021
The purpose of the present study was to examine the effect of different conditioning activities (CAs) on short-term increase in sprint performance. In twelve male sprinters (21.1+2.6 years, 100 m performance: 11.5+0.6 s) their body composition, half squat maximum strength, 100 m sprinting and countermovement jump performances were evaluated. The performance of a 50 m sprint (splits at 10 m, 30 m and 50 m) was evaluated before and 5, 10 and 15 min after four postactivation performance enhancement CAs on different occasions: [1] 3 sets x 4 s maximum isometric half squat (IHF), [2] 3 sets x 3 consecutive countermovement jumps (cCMJs), [3] 3 repetitions x 30 m overspeed sprinting (OVSP) and [4]…
Logical Intelligence Enhancement Test: a measure for the evaluation of logical skills in primary school
2019
Il presente lavoro si inserisce in uno studio pilota condotto nell’anno scolastico 2018-2019per valutare l’efficacia del Logical Intelligence Enhancement Programme (LIEP, Calvani, Peru,& Zanaboni, 2019), un programma composto da tavole di logica verbale e numerica volte asviluppare il ragionamento logico e le capacità metacognitive di studenti di quinta primaria.All’interno di questo studio è stato sviluppato il Logical Intelligence Enhancement test perstimare gli effetti del training sulle abilità logico-verbali. Il contributo presenta la costru-zione del test, le sue caratteristiche psicometriche e la validazione. A tal fine, lo strumentoè stato somministrato a un campione di 173 stud…
Citādības atspoguļojums Amitava Goša romānos
2022
Postkoloniālajā literatūrā citādības jeb alteritātes jēdziens dominē diskusijās par Rietumu imperiālisma politisko un sociālo ietekmi. Literatūras teorijā citādības jēdzienu var aplūkot no divām perspektīvām - viena ir fiziskā citādība, bet otra ir iekšēja atsvešināšanās no noteiktas grupas vai sabiedrības. Šī darba mērķis ir analizēt, kā citādība tiek attēlota Amitava Goša romānos „Magoņu jūra”, „Ēnu līnijas” un „Kalkutas hromosoma”. Šajā darbā izmantotās pētniecības metodes ir literatūras apskats, teksta analīze un atziņu interpretācija. Atlasīto romānu analīze parādīja, ka varoņu citādība un ar to saistītie aizspriedumi ir atšķirīgi atkarībā no romānu tēmām un laika periodiem, kuros nori…
