Revisión del sistema pronominal español

2002

This article offers a critical review of the Spanish pronominal system (personal, possessive and demonstrative pronouns) as described in Nebrija's works and in those of the 16th and 17th century grammarians. These texts show that the history of grammatics is frequently a history of errors. In fact, the methodology conveniences they chose to establish regular models, led grammarians to false the reality of the language. Quite frequently also, as they intended to develop the grammatical thinking establishing certain categories or divisions among them, these authors originated errors that have been perpetuated in their texts. From my point of view, that is the case for pronouns. As has been de…

Selective Sacral Nerve Blockade for the Treatment of Unstable Bladders

1987

38 patients with severe urge or urge incontinence, who did not respond to conservative therapy, were treated with selective sacral nerve blockade using a local anesthetic (bupivacaine). 6 patients of this group had definite selective sacral denervation with phenol. In 31 patients a urodynamic study was done previous to the sacral nerve block as well as 10 and 90 min after the injection. Within the first 2-7 weeks the success rate was about 70% in regard to bladder capacity and mean volume at first desire to void. On long-term follow-up (greater than 7 months), the success rate decreased to about 16%. Only 1 patient of the phenol group still has complete detrusor areflexia for now more than …

Late results of bladder stimulation in 11 patients: followup to 4 years.

1978

Abstract Direct stimulation of the detrusor muscle offers the best possibility to evacuate the bladder in highly selected patients. During the last 4 years 11 patients have undergone implantation of a bladder pacemaker. Followup revealed that 1 patient could void only during stimulation, while 7 patients had reflex evacuation and 3 had no function at all. An exceptional case report is presented.

Action research and narrative inquiry: five principles for validation revisited

2012

The article continues the discussion of the five quality principles proposed by Heikkinen, Huttunen, and Syrjala, published in 2007 in Educational Action Research. In the present article, the authors reconsider the five principles: historical continuity; reflexivity; dialectics; workability; and evocativeness. These five principles are critically examined from two viewpoints. First, the authors discuss comments on the quality of the principles published in Educational Action Research, referring to contemporary discussion within the philosophy of science. Second, they review some empirical action research reports in which these principles have been applied. The authors point out some problem…

Le professionnel hautement qualifié et flexible dans la société de la connaissance

2009

09063; Rapport financé par le Conseil Régional de Bourgogne; La question centrale, fil conducteur de ce rapport, est la suivante : le diplômé de l'enseignement supérieur est-il "le professionnel hautement qualifié et flexible dans la société de la connaissance" ? Ce rapport de fin des travaux présente les principaux résultats de la recherche concernant la valorisation des compétences des diplômés européens de l'enseignement supérieur et la flexibilité sur les marchés du travail en mobilisant trois projets. L'enquête la plus récente, qui implique quinze pays d'Europe, fait l'objet du premier chapitre qui est centré sur l'analyse comparative des situations professionnelles et des perceptions …

Riconfigurazioni identitarie nei contesti urbani degradati: discontinuità e riflessività

2019

Che rilevanza ha il contesto territoriale nei percorsi biografici dei residenti? Che significato assumono in un determinato territorio i turning point, le discontinuità, gli eventi imprevisti che si verificano nella vita degli individui? E ancora, perché soggetti che nascono e vivono in ambienti degradati economicamente e culturalmente riescono a cambiare il corso della propria vita che sembrerebbe ripetersi con modalità abituali per altri consociati (familiari o residenti) con esiti di degrado personale o marginalità sociale? Nell’articolo, attraverso i dati di una ricerca si svilupperà la relazione che intercorre tra discontinuità biografiche e riflessività che nei turning point influenza…

Basic Sequences in the Dual of a Fréchet Space

Banach spaces which are somewhat uniformly noncreasy

2003

AbstractWe consider a family of spaces wider than r-UNC spaces and we give some fixed point results in the setting of these spaces.

On the construction of Ljusternik-Schnirelmann critical values in banach spaces

1991

w h e r e f a n d g are functionals on a Banach space X, are considered in many papers. The existence theorems are based on the existence of a critical vector with respect to the manifold M,={xEX: f(x)=r}. Morse theory can often be used to obtain precise information about the behaviour of the functional close to the critical level. However, this would limit the study to Hilbert spaces and functions with nondegenerate critical points. These assumptions are not always satisfied in applications and are not rleeded when applying the Ljusternik--Schnirelmann theory. Therefore, Ljusternik--Schnirelmann theory has been widely used to study various nonlinear eigenvalue problems. Very general result…

Monotone Relations, Fixed Points and Recursive Definitions

The paper is concerned with reflexive points of relations. The significance of reflexive points in the context of indeterminate recursion principles is shown.
