AB1394 Compliance and arthralgias in clinical therapy (compact): Assessment of the incidence of arthralgia, therapy costs and compliance within the f…
2013
Background Aromatase inhibitors (AI) are well established as adjuvant endocrine treatment for postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) early breast cancer (EBC). Drug-induced myalgia or arthralgia is among the most frequently reported adverse drug reactions to AIs. Objectives Little is known about the pathomechanism by which AIs cause muscle and joint injury. The literature on skeletal muscle complaints with AIs is confusing, in part because of a lack of clear definitions. Myalgia/arthralgia is defined as muscle/joint pain and is likely to affect patients’ quality of life and compliance with AI medication . We designed a prospective trial to collect real world data on the e…
Regulation of Apoptosis by Inhibitors of Apoptosis (IAPs).
2013
Abstract Inhibitors of Apoptosis (IAPs) are a family of proteins with various biological functions including regulation of innate immunity and inflammation, cell proliferation, cell migration and apoptosis. They are characterized by the presence of at least one N-terminal baculoviral IAP repeat (BIR) domain involved in protein-protein interaction. Most of them also contain a C-terminal RING domain conferring an E3-ubiquitin ligase activity. In drosophila, IAPs are essential to ensure cell survival, preventing the uncontrolled activation of the apoptotic protease caspases. In mammals, IAPs can also regulate apoptosis through controlling caspase activity and caspase-activating platform format…
Recaída locorregional en mujeres con cáncer de mama portadoras de mutación BRCA tratadas mediante cirugía conservadora
2015
El cáncer de mama (CM) representa la quinta causa de muerte por cáncer en todo el mundo y la segunda en los países desarrollados. El conocimiento de los factores de riesgo que predisponen a padecerlo permite poder desarrollar una prevención primaria y secundaria adecuada, con el fin de disminuir la incidencia de CM en el primer caso y realizar un diagnóstico precoz en el segundo. Entre un 5-10% de los casos de CM presentan una causa hereditaria asociándose a mutaciones principalmente en los genes BRCA1 y BRCA2 ocasionando el conocido Síndrome de CM y cáncer de Ovario (CO) Hereditario. Las personas portadoras de estas alteraciones presentan un alto riesgo de padecer CM , que oscila entre el …
Réseaux de distribution de l’énergie et sobriété énergétique des territoires, les apports d’une approche thermodynamique et métabolique des systèmes …
2017
Dans le contexte de transition énergétique et de crise environnementale actuel, les intérêts des approches territoriales et systémiques de l’énergie semblent aujourd’hui admis. Cependant et malgré les nombreuses avancées dans les domaines technologiques, en matière d’urbanisme et d’aménagement ou bien encore en termes d’approches psycho-sociales et comportementales, les courbes de consommations énergétiques peinent à s’infléchir. Fort de ce constat, nous posons l’hypothèse, sur la base d’éléments théoriques empruntés à la thermodynamique et à la biologie, du rôle potentiel que pourraient jouer les réseaux de distribution énergétique, leurs caractéristiques, leur morphologie et leur dynamiqu…
Kiinan uhkan arviointia : Kööpenhaminan koulukunnan näkökulma ja New African sekä African Business -lehdet sen suhteellistajina
2008
Tutkimuksen kohteena on Kiinan asema ja rajakäynti suhteessa vallitsevaan kansainväliseen järjestykseen. Vallitsevalla järjestyksellä tarkoitetaan postmodernia yhteistyöhön perustuvaa valtioidenvälisen toiminnan kenttää, joka on globalisaatioprosessien ja liberaalien arvojen läpäisemä. Tutkielman tarkoituksena on arvioida Kiinan globaalia asemoitumista käsittelevien konstruktioiden lähtökohtia. Empiirisenä aineistona on käytetty New African- ja African Business -aikakauslehtien sisältöä vuoden 2006 alusta vuoden 2007 puoliväliin. Arviointi tapahtuu narratiivisen tutkimusmetodin avulla, jolloin analyysia ohjaa rakenteita paljastava lukutapa. Hannah Arendtin näkökulma on metodologisen valinna…

A novel technique for opus vermiculatum mosaic rendering
2006
In this paper we present a method to generate a digital mosaic starting from a raster input image. Mosaics generation of artistic quality is challenging. The basic elements, the tiles, typically small polygons, must be packed tightly, emphasizing orientations chosen by the artist. An adhoc boundaries detection have to be performed according to the directional guidelines. Different mosaic styles can be automatically rendered, depending on artistic techniques considered (“opus musivum”, “opus vermiculatum”, etc.). The proposed method is able to reproduce the colors of the original image emphasizing relevant boundaries by placing tiles along their direction. The boundaries detection is based o…
Macroscytus raunoi, a new burrower bug species from Papua New Guinea (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Cydnidae: Cydninae)
2016
Abstract Macroscytus raunoi, a new species of the genus Macroscytus Fieber, 1860, is described from the Morobe Province on the northern coast of Papua New Guinea. The new species is similar in its morphological characters to Australian M. arnhemicus J. A. Lis, 1999. Differences in morphology and male genitalia which enable separation of both species are provided.
Taxonomic review of the
2017
Abstract Two new species of the genus Fulvius Stål are described from the Philippines and Papua New Guinea. A taxonomic review of representatives of the F.bifenestratus species group, illustrations of the male genitalia, a color habitus image of each species, and a key to species of the group are provided.
Geotomus granulosus, a peculiar sehirine-like new species of the subfamily Cydninae (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Cydnidae) from Burundi
2022
Geotomus granulosus sp. n. is described from Burundi, and is the third burrower bug species recorded hitherto from this country. This burrower bug resembles species of two Sehirinae genera, i.e. Ochetostethus Fieber, 1860 and Ochetostethomorpha Schumacher, 1913, in its dorsal body habitus. However, all its crucial diagnostic characters (the body chaetotaxy, the shape of evaporatoria and the peritreme, the meso- and metathoracic wings venation, and the shape of spermatheca) demonstrate it represents the genus Geotomus Mulsant et Rey, 1866 (subfamily Cydninae, tribe Geotomini sensu lato).
