Availability of secondary prevention services after stroke in Europe: An ESO/SAFE survey of national scientific societies and stroke experts

2018

Background Recurrent stroke is associated with increased disability and cognitive impairment, but the availability of secondary prevention measures after transient ischaemic attack (TIA) or stroke in Europe is uncertain. This limits prioritisation of investment and development of national stroke strategies. Methods National stroke representatives throughout Europe were surveyed. Consensus panels reported national data if available, or else expert opinion, estimating the availability of each intervention by quintiles of patients, dichotomised for analysis at 60%. Countries were classified into tertiles of gross domestic product per capita. Results Of 50 countries, 46 responded; 14/45 (31%) h…

Screening for Early Detection of Asymptomatic Coronary Artery Disease (Secondary Prevention): An Approach to Cost/Benefit and Cost/Effectiveness Anal…

1983

Classification of different types of preventive measures for ischemic heart disease (IHD) has been much debated. In the classical use of terms “primary prevention” (prevention of occurrence) includes removal of risk factors in otherwise healthy individuals, while the attempts to change diet and life style in the very early age, in order to avoid the acquisition of risk factors, has been called “preprimary prevention” or “early prevention.”

The prevention of labor risks in chile: Some reflection on the employer'S security obligation

2021

La prevención de riesgos laborales es un derecho básico de los trabajadores, por su evidente conexión con el derecho a la vida y a la salud. Su relevancia y complejidad jurídica merecen conocer cómo se regula el deber de seguridad en el ordenamiento jurídico chileno, cuáles son sus características más relevantes y cuál es el alcance de esta obligación empresarial The prevention of occupational hazards is a basic right of workers, connected with the right to life. It is important to know how it is regulated in the Chilean law, and analyze its most important characteristics. Universidad Pablo de Olavide

Analysis of dynamic service oriented systems for security related problems detection

2017

The paper presents an approach to solve some problems arising in the management process of IT security. Our motivation of this research is to study in every detail the context of service oriented systems, which can be defined as considerable heterogeneous, dynamic and flexible configuration of the hardware and software system resources. The fundamental difference between security management systems with traditional centralized and monolithic architecture and service oriented systems is discussed. We propose a multilayered-reference model for service-oriented systems aimed predominantly at principal objectives related to IT based systems security working in dynamic environments. Likewise, co…

Testing the Modified Sediment Delivery Model (MOSEDD) at SPA2 Experimental Basin, Sicily (Italy)

2017

A new version of a spatially distributed sediment delivery model taking into account the hillslope sediment transport efficiency, named MOSEDD, is presented. This model gives estimates of basin sediment yield at event scale, which are more reliable than those obtained by the original SEDD. For SPA2 basin discretized into morphological units, four different calculation schemes of MOSEDD, including the original SEDD version, were applied. All parameterization schemes of the model were calibrated using 15 events measured at the outlet of the experimental basin in the period February 2005–February 2010. The model calibration was used to determine a relationship between the coefficient βₑ of the…

L’amministrazione giudiziaria ex art. 104 bis disp. att. c.p.p. Un istituto sospeso tra chiarimenti e nuove incertezze

2019

Il contributo affronta le principali problematiche riguardanti l'istituto dell'amministrazione giudiziaria ex art. 104 bis disp. att. c.p.p. Si sofferma sulle numerose questioni emerse anche a causa della continua evoluzione normativa: soprattutto sul giudice competente, sulla scelta ed il ruolo dell'amministratore, nonché sulla tutela dei "terzi". The essay addresses the main problems concerning the judicial administration ex art. 104 bis disp. att. c.p.p. It focuses on several issues that arised because of the continuous regulatory evolution: especially on the competent judge, on the choice and role of the administrator, as well as on the rights of "third parties".

NONSTRUCTURAL SEISMIC PREVENTION AND REHABILITATION

2010

Il progetto di cooperazione internazionale finanziato nell’ambito del programma CoRI 2005/2006 dell’Ateneo di Palermo, ha visto coinvolte l’Università di Palermo e l’Università di Berkeley – USA, nella persona della Prof. Mary C. Comerio (Chair Department of Architecture). La prima fase del progetto è stata volta alla conoscenza dell’esperienza USA nella gestione degli edifici scolastici per potere riversare nella realtà italiana significativi apporti. La seconda fase del progetto ha previsto occasioni di confronto diretto con duplici finalità, sia di ricerca che di formazione didattica. Tra le varie attività previste nell’ambito di questa occasione, è stato organizzato un workshop in cui s…

Prevenzione e riabilitazione sismica degli elementi non-strutturali. Vulnerabilità e misure di prevenzione per il patrimonio architettonico del XX se…

2010

Il contenimento dei danni agli elementi non-strutturali, perseguito con un’opportuna cultura della prevenzione già in fase progettuale, pur impegnando risorse in fase di realizzazione o di riabilitazione e di retrofitting, si traduce in un risparmio post-sisma. Inoltre, la funzionalità e l’operatività degli edifici si esplica attraverso il corretto funzionamento degli impianti e la stabilità di arredi, equipaggiamenti, finiture ed opere accessorie. Le tecniche di prevenzione e riabilitazione non possono prescindere dalla qualità realizzativa degli elementi costruttivi quale imprescindibile condizione di sicurezza ed affidabilità, e tradotta come idoneo impiego e consapevole scelta dei mater…

What Do We Know About the Second Moment of Financial Markets?

2021

Recent research shows that the vast majority of scientific studies published in leading finance journals fails scientific replication (Hou, Xue, and Zhang, 2020; Harvey, Liu, and Zhu; 2016). This study argues that p-hacking, publication pressure and the selection bias from leading finance journals are perhaps not the underlying root cause for this issue. We show that standard methodologies often used in finance research are inevitably sample-specific due to the very nature of financial markets. While the consensus of earlier research postulates a rejection of the time-honored Levy hypothesis, our results strongly indicate that the variance of variance does not exist in any of the financial …
