Distance learning training in genetics and genomics testing for Italian health professionals: results of a pre and post-test evaluation
2022
BackgroundProgressive advances in technologies for DNA sequencing and decreasing costs are allowing an easier diffusion of genetic and genomic tests. Physicians’ knowledge and confidence on the topic is often low and not suitable for manage this challenge. Tailored educational programs are required to reach a more and more appropriate use of genetic technologies.MethodsA distance learning course has been created by experts from different Italian medical associations with the support of the Italian Ministry of Health. The course was directed to professional figures involved in prescription and interpretation of genetic tests. A pretest-post-test study design was used to assess knowledge impr…
Afectividad y promoción de la salud en la escuela: construcción de significados por el maestro
2016
Objective: To understand affectivity and health promotion at school through the construction of meanings by the teachers. Methods: The present exploratory and descriptive study was conducted based on a qualitative approach using affective maps and semi-structured interviews as tools for data collection. Affective maps transcend the duality between cognition, affect and spatial representations because, within this context, any environment can be seen as an emotional territory. The interviews aimed to investigate which health promoting actions each teacher has participated in, their perceptions regarding them, which affects emerge when carrying out the actions suggested by the school and how …
Critical aspects of the physiological interactions between lead and magnesium
2021
Despite technological progress, exposure to lead is an ongoing problem. There are many mechanisms governing the toxic effects of lead on the human body. One such mechanism involves the interaction of this xenobiotic with bivalent metal ions, including magnesium. Literature data suggest that the competition between these elements for binding sites at the molecular and cellular levels, as well as at the systemic level, may represent an important aspect of lead toxicity in the human body. This is especially clear in the context of oxidative stress, immune response, and gene expression modifications. This review aims to summarize current knowledge regarding these issues.
Valutare: perchè e come
2022
After OM 172/20, the attention of researchers was focused on the new way of evaluating learning objectives in primary school. It is also necessary to evaluate the degree of overall development of the pupils in view of the certification of skills.
RNA-Binding Proteins as Epigenetic Regulators of Brain Functions and Their Involvement in Neurodegeneration.
2022
A central aspect of nervous system development and function is the post-transcriptional regulation of mRNA fate, which implies time- and site-dependent translation, in response to cues originating from cell-to-cell crosstalk. Such events are fundamental for the establishment of brain cell asymmetry, as well as of long-lasting modifications of synapses (long-term potentiation: LTP), responsible for learning, memory, and higher cognitive functions. Post-transcriptional regulation is in turn dependent on RNA-binding proteins that, by recognizing and binding brief RNA sequences, base modifications, or secondary/tertiary structures, are able to control maturation, localization, stability, and tr…
Pasja biblijnych poszukiwań. Silvano Fausti SJ (1940–2015) – kierownik duchowy i spowiednik kard. C.M. Martiniego
2020
Artykuł prezentuje życie i twórczość Silavano Faustiego – włoskiego biblisty, filozofa i teologa; współzałożyciela wspólnoty braci zakonnych i świeckich rodzin w Villapizzone (Mediolan) oraz duchowego kierownika i spowiednika kard. C.M. Martiniego. Jego pasja biblijnych poszukiwań zaowocowała imponującym dorobkiem publikacji, które propagują starożytną praktykę lectio divina, katechetyczną lekturę Pisma Świętego – katechezę narracyjną oraz rozeznawanie powołania według duchowości ignacjańskiej. Z tego dorobku korzysta wspólnota braci zakonnych i świeckich w Villapizzone oraz wiele innych wspólnot, które praktykują osobistą i wspólnotową lekturę Biblii. Metoda lectio divina, pierwotnie prakt…
Resurrection of Pomphorhynchus tereticollis (Rudolphi, 1809) (Acanthocephala: Pomphorhynchidae) based on new morphological and molecular data
2011
Abstract Pomphorhynchus tereticollis (Rudolphi, 1809) is here redescribed on the basis of Rudolphi’s material, deposited in the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin, and on acanthocephalans recently collected from the type host Platichthys flessus (L.) and the region embodying the type locality. Out of the paratypes of P. tereticollis, the lectotype and paralectotypes have been designated. Their morphology fits well with that of newly collected material of P. tereticollis dissected from the type fish host from the Baltic coast near Stralsund. The resurrection of P. tereticollis, previously considered a synonym of Pomphorhynchus laevis (Zoega in Müller, 1779), is supported by several morphological f…
Comparative genomics and transcriptomics in Saccharomyces
2015
Las levaduras del género Saccharomyces (principalmente Saccharomyces cerevisiae) son las responsables de la fermentación alcohólica (Pretorius, 2000). Aunque S. cerevisiae es la especie más frecuente en fermentaciones vínicas, y modelo de estudio (Pretorius, 2000; Serra et al., 2005; Barrio et al., 2006), también pueden estar presentes durante el proceso especies como S. uvarum (Naumov et al., 2002; Rementería et al., 2003; Demuyter et al., 2004), Saccharomyces paradoxus, aislada de viñedos croatas (Redžepovic et al., 2002) o también híbridos naturales entre especies del género Saccharomyces como S. cerevisiae x S. kudriavzevii (González et al., 2006) y S. cerevisiae x S. uvarum (Le Jeune e…
Characterization and improvement of non-conventional Saccharomyces yeasts to solve new challenges in the wine industry: Application of omics technolo…
2021
Las levaduras Saccharomyces participan en procesos fermentativos de valor en la industria alimentaria, como la elaboración de vino. La industria del vino utiliza levaduras seleccionadas para realizar la fermentación del vino de forma controlada y para producir un vino homogéneo. En la actualidad, S. cerevisiae es la especie del género Saccharomyces más utilizada en la industria vitivinícola para llevar a cabo el proceso fermentativo, por ser muy resistente al etanol, compuesto tóxico que se produce durante las fermentaciones. Hoy en día, como consecuencia del cambio climático, los vinos finales contienen niveles de alcohol y pH más altos y una acidez total menor a la esperada, característic…
The Design Towards a News Aggregator Subscription Service: Results from An Online Experiment
2021
The newspaper industry is on a quest to discover sustainable business models. Digital subscriptions are stable revenue generators for most publishers. That being said, smaller publishers face challenges. By not having the same resource base to offset costs compared to larger ones, small publishers are in a constant state of financial unpredictability. Another persistent problem among them is the high churn rate of subscriptions (i.e., the cancelation rate), which suggests a value misalignment between readers and service. New services like news aggregators may promise publishers a large pool of paying readers, as readers have access to diverse content by different publishers and are willing …
