Maladaptive stress coping: An additional psychological factor in the process of chronification of pain or pruritus
2021
Background: Inflammatory skin diseases with chronic pruritus and chronic back pain are very common symptoms in the general population and are associated with a reduced quality of life (QOL). In addition to biological factors, psychosocial reasons are also considered to be responsible for their development. So far, it is not known whether chronic pruritus and chronic back pain are related to maladaptive stress coping. Patients and methods: In our matched pilot case-control study with a total of 259 analyzed subjects, we compared outpatient groups, one suffering from chronic skin diseases with pruritus, the other with chronic back pain, to a healthy control group in terms of their stress copi…
Past, present, and future of green product innovation
2021
Firms are under constant pressure from various governmental and nongovernmental agencies to switch from conventional environmentally polluting products to green product innovations (GPIs). However, the relevant research pertaining to GPI has been published in a diverse set of journals that vary in their scope and readership and, therefore, the scholarly contribution to the topic remains largely fragmented. This study has utilised a systematic literature review approach to examine the literary corpus on GPI to paint a holistic picture of its different aspects. The content and thematic analysis of 85 studies resulted in the extraction of seven key research themes: organisational capabilities,…
Orientare nella scuola alla scelta formativo-professionale post-diploma con la metodologia «SeCo»
2017
È stata effettuata un’indagine pilota ispirata alla teoria di Pennebaker e ai principi della scuola rogersiana di counseling. 88 studenti del quinto anno di un liceo di Enna hanno partecipato, tra il mese di novembre 2015 e il mese di maggio 2016, a un progetto di orientamento che ha previsto la sperimentazione della metodologia educativa «SeCo» (Scrittura espressiva e Colloquio di orientamento) per la costruzione del loro progetto di vita professionale. L’applicazione di questa metodologia ha implicato lo svolgimento di due attività formative: tre sessioni di scrittura espressivo-prospettica e tre colloqui individuali di orientamento. Si è voluto verificare se la partecipazione a queste at…
Vidusskolēnu iesaistes skolā un depresijas pazīmju saistība
2017
Pētījuma mērķis bija noskaidrot, kā vidusskolēnu iesaiste skolā ir saistīta ar novērotajām depresijas pazīmēm. Pētījuma sekundārs mērķis bija izvērtēt, vai pastāv atšķirības starp iesaisti skolā un depresijas pazīmēm un to saistībām meiteņu un zēnu grupā, kā arī grupās ar dažādu depresijas pazīmju izpausmes intensitāti. Pētījumā piedalījās 126 skolēni, no tiem 71 meitene un 55 zēni, vecumā no 16 – 20 gadiem, kuri šobrīd mācās 10.-12. klasē. Iesaistes skolā noteikšanai pētījuma ietvaros tika adaptēta un izmantota Epltona (Appleton), Kristensones (Christenson), Kima (Kim) un Rešlijas (Reschly) izveidotā aptauja par iesaisti skolā (School Engagement Instrument) (Appleton, Christenson, Kim, & R…
I Cannot Read Your Eye Expression: Suicide Attempters Have Difficulties in Interpreting Complex Social Emotions
2020
International audience; Background: The ability to differentiate emotions in social contexts is important for dealing with challenging social situations. Suicide attempters show some difficulties in emotion recognition that may result in hypersensitivity to social stress. However, other studies on the recognition of social complex emotions found that suicide attempters have similar performances as depressed non-attempters. Objectives: To investigate differences in social emotion recognition in patients with current Major Depressive Episode (MDE) with and without history of suicide attempt. Methods: Two hundred and ten patients with MDE were recruited among whom 115 had lifetime history of s…
il volto della morte: le maschere funerarie della sepoltura dei preti morti di Gangi
2014
riassunto — Le mummie moderne e il signifcato recondito della doppia sepoltura nelle culture mediterranee moderne sono da tempo ampiamente dibattuti. In questo lavoro si discute di una particolare “collezione” di corpi di ecclesiastici, mummifcati ed esposti in un comune montano madonita della Sicilia, Gangi. I corpi, principalmente risalenti al XIX secolo, mummifcati per colatura come nella tradizione del tempo e vestiti degli abiti talari, sono esposti nel piano sottostante della Chiesa Madre, in quella che nella tradizione è detta la “fossa dei parrini” (fossa dei preti). Le mummie, a differenza di altri siti siciliani e mediterranei, sono altresì corredate di sonetto commemorativo e di …
Comparative transcriptomics of albino and warningly‐coloured caterpillars
2021
Abstract Coloration is perhaps one of the most prominent adaptations for survival and reproduction of many taxa. Coloration is of particular importance for aposematic species, which rely on their coloring and patterning acting as a warning signal to deter predators. Most research has focused on the evolution of warning coloration by natural selection. However, little information is available for color mutants of aposematic species, particularly at the genomic level. Here, I compare the transcriptomes of albino mutant caterpillars of the aposematic wood tiger moth (Arctia plantaginis) to those of their full sibs having their distinctive orange‐black warning coloration. The results showed >29…
Suoliston mikrobit ja fyysinen suorituskyky
2021
Suolistoamme asuttava miljardilukuinen mikrobiyhteisö osallistuu fysiologiaamme monin tavoin. Se kykenee esimerkiksi hajottamaan ravinnosta yhdisteitä, joihin omat entsyymimme eivät pure. Poikittaistutkimuksissa on löydetty ihmisen fyysisen suorituskyvyn ja suolistomikrobien välisiä yhteyksiä. Liikunta-aktiivisuus näyttäisi lisäävän tiettyjen terveysvaikutteisten suolistomikrobien määrää. Pitkittäistutkimuksista tekemämme systemoitu katsaus osoittaa, että liikunta vaikuttaa ihmisten suolistomikrobeihin, mutta tulokset ovat ristiriitaisia. Yleisimmin keskikuormittava kestävyysliikunta on aiheuttanut eniten muutoksia suolistossa, mutta tähänastinen tutkimus on painottunut iäkkäisiin, ylipaino…
Virtualization of work in global supply chains
2016
ABSTRACT. Background: The paper is devoted to the notion and benefits of implementing virtual work in global supply chains. Virtual work must be understood as an intentional activity of a human being, aimed at rendering services (tangible and intangible), by means of ITC tools, performed in a distance from the traditional place of work, in a mobile manner. The empirical research were conducted on the basis of 4 case studies of global leaders of supply chains, which in accordance with M. Fisher's classification, represent two types. The case studies confirmed the positive influence of virtual work both in effective and flexible supply chains. Favourable market and technological conditions an…
Determination of glyphosate and its metabolite aminomethylphosphonic acid in fruit juices using supported-liquid membrane preconcentration method wit…
2005
Abstract The application of supported-liquid membrane (SLM) technique for effective extraction of N -(phosphonomethyl)glycine (glyphosate) and its primary metabolite aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA) from juices (orange, grapefruit, apple and blackcurrant) in combination with HPLC-UV detection after derivatization with p -toluenesulphonyl chloride (TsCl) is presented. The influence of various parameters such as the composition of acceptor phase, flow-rate, concentration of analytes, on the performance of extraction procedure, was studied. It was shown that by appropriate manipulation of SLM parameters the level of detection could be significantly improved. The influence of SLM conditions on…
