The Diversification of Sicilian Farms: A Way to Sustainable Rural Development
2021
Rural areas still suffer from a lack of sustainable development, and the diversification of farms may be a step in the right direction. The paper provides a detailed picture of the diversification of Sicilian farms into tourism services. Specifically, we propose a simple indicator of localization intensity of agritourism farms and explore their spatial distribution at municipality level. Our study highlights that Sicilian farms rarely diversify into tourism services, despite being situated in attractive areas. That said, some significant spatial clusters of municipalities where agritourism farms are highly concentrated do emerge from the study.
The endogeneous nature of the dynamic analysis among classical economist's writings
1998
« Endogenous growth theories » exhibit different models in which growth is assumed to come from the accumulation of a particular factor (human capital, technology, public infrastructures, etc.). However, due to its newness, the real term of « endogenous growth » seems to playdown old theories.This paper intends to put right this position and demonstrate that relations displayed by current models are only formalizations stemming from the developments of classical economists. In the end, we demonstrate that their analysis yields new viewpoints for analysts. Overall, we wish to reinforce theendogenous nature of the dynamic analysis among classical economist's writings.
AMATEUR DOPING: A SURVEY AMONG SICILIAN PEOPLE
2018
In last years, Amateur Doping has caused many victims. In order to know the diffusion of this phenomenon, we have conducted an online-survey through Google forms. We also transformed the same questionnaire on paper and it was administered in many gyms in Palermo and Trapani (Sicily-Italy). The sample examined consists of 976 people aged between 14 and 65 (47.3% of them are women and 52.7% are men). We asked them if they ever took on substances to improve their athletic performances: 25.8% of them answered affirmatively and they declared to take on protein, amino acids but also Eca Stacks, which are hired on regular basis (34.6%). They bought this substances in sporting stores (32.2%), in ph…

34066. Pharmaceutical Chemistry I. Drug discovery and design
2019
Para la elaboración del presente documento se ha contado con la ayuda del Servei de Política Lingüística de la Universitat de València This material includes the set of slides that are used in the teaching of the group in English of Pharmaceutical Chemistry (code 34066), an annual subject taught in the third year of the Degree in Pharmacy. The content deals not only with the drugs’ origin, development and design, but also with the study of the factors to be considered as regards their action. The design of drugs originally focused mainly on simple chemical modifications of the molecules of natural origin but current design trends are based on the study of the interactions of drugs with thei…
A Forensic Diagnostic Algorithm for Drug-Related Deaths: A Case Series
2022
The best evidence provided in the literature worldwide suggests the importance of harmonizing the investigation in drug-related fatalities. In this study, the application of a multidisciplinary approach in eight cases of drug-related deaths is presented. Although death scene findings could be highly suggestive of drug intoxication, external examination and toxicological screening test alone are insufficient. There are several variables, and it is not always easy to give the proper interpretation of the drug detection. A complete autopsy is necessary to correctly complete organ and tissues sampling for further histological and toxicological studies and obtain body fluids. The use of peripher…
Polifarmācija ikdienas farmaceitiskajā praksē
2015
Polifarmācija ir arvien izplatītāka parādība dažādu slimību ārstēšanā. Polifarmācija ir vairāku preparātu vienlaicīga lietošana. Šāda parādība visbiežāk tiek novērota tieši vecāka gadagājuma cilvēku vidū. Veicot pētījumu, tika apzināti aptiekas apmeklētāji, kuri iegādājās trīs un vairāk preparātus, un visi šie preparāti bija paredzēti personīgai lietošanai. Tika pārbaudītas preparātu aktīvo zāļu vielu mijiedarbības savā starpā ar mijiedarbību kalkulatoru. Pētījumā piedalījās 102 dalībnieki, no tiem 74 sievietes, 25 vīrieši un arī 3 bērni, dalībnieku vidū dominē sieviešu īpatsvars. Dalībnieku vecums bija no 2 līdz 93 gadiem. Polifarmācijas apjoms pieaug līdz ar pacientu vecumu, taču arī bērn…

Informational interactions and the future of cities
1998
Present-day city growth is chiefly the result of new tertiary activities such as financial and producer services, R&D, or business administration. It seems that these activities need to be more spatially concentrated than traditional manufacturing activities. These new trends affect both the structure of cities and the structure of city systems. The specific nature of the new activities concentrated in city centers makes them information intensive. These activities consume human capital, knowledge and hightech capital, which are all rapidly changing inputs; they are based on complex decisionmakingprocesses; this renders them highly information-dependent. Inasmuch as these activities are the…
Análisis de la evolución del Estado de Bienestar como elemento necesario para el desarrollo de la Economía Social y nexo para la implementación de ec…
2022
La crisis financiera que tuvo lugar en 2008 puso al descubierto la fragilidad y eficiencias del sistema económico mundial y, en particular, de la tendencia a capitalizar los aspectos sociales de una economía. La crítica al capitalismo, como el sistema imperante, es extensa y prolongada; sin embargo, la búsqueda de modelos económicos alternativos se ha intensificado. La Economía Social y Solidaria, como elemento socializador de la economía de capital o como un punto de partida hacia un modelo más socialmente responsable, ha surgido como una alternativa responsable, viable y científicamente respalda. Aun así, este concepto requiere de mecanismos de distribución que permitan a los actores econ…
