Lo sviluppo dell’intelligenza linguistica e della competenza comunicativa degli studenti universitari. Un esperimento Brain-Based in Dad
2021
Il contributo presenta l’utilizzo di un approccio di tipo Brainbased allo sviluppo dell’intelligenza linguistica e della correlata competenza linguistico-comunicativa, che ha permesso la sperimentazione di una batteria di attività di Brain Gym (Dennison & Dennison, 2008) nel contesto didattico universitario durante il periodo di Didattica a Distanza (DAD) imposta dalla pandemia da Covid-19. La DAD ha comportato una drastica limitazione di alcuni elementi considerati fondanti per lo sviluppo delle competenze linguistiche, espressive e comunicative quali la corporeità, il controllo visuo-acustico, i tempi d’attenzione, la gestualità, il contatto. Nella sua fase iniziale, la ricerca condot…
Mycobacterium tuberculosis multirezistences noteikšana
2018
Latvijā un pasaulē joprojām mirst no ārstējamas slimības – tuberkuloze ir devītais nāves cēlonis pasaulē. Nozīmīga sabiedrības veselības problēma ir M. tuberculosis multirezistence pret antibakteriālajiem līdzekļiem. Rezistence pret antibakteriālajiem līdzekļiem galvenokārt saistīta ar to, ka daļa tuberkulozes slimnieku netiek savlaicīgi atklāti, tādējādi turpinot slimības aktīvu transmisiju sabiedrībā; antibakteriālo līdzekļu nepareizu pielietošanu – priekšlaicīgi pārtrauc terapiju vai lieto zāles neregulāri, kā rezultātā rodas multirezistentās tuberkulozes formas. Darba mērķis: Noteikt no klīniskā materiāla izdalīto M. tuberculosis celmu sastopamības biežumu un to rezistenci pret antibakt…
On multivalued weakly Picard operators in partial Hausdorff metric spaces
2015
We discuss multivalued weakly Picard operators on partial Hausdorff metric spaces. First, we obtain Kikkawa-Suzuki type fixed point theorems for a new type of generalized contractive conditions. Then, we prove data dependence of a fixed points set theorem. Finally, we present sufficient conditions for well-posedness of a fixed point problem. Our results generalize, complement and extend classical theorems in metric and partial metric spaces.
Tolerance, Adaptation, and Cell Response Elicited by Micromonospora sp. Facing Tellurite Toxicity: A Biological and Physical-Chemical Characterization
2022
The intense use of tellurium (Te) in industrial applications, along with the improper disposal of Te-derivatives, is causing their accumulation in the environment, where oxyanion tellurite (TeO32−) is the most soluble, bioavailable, and toxic Te-species. On the other hand, tellurium is a rare metalloid element whose natural supply will end shortly with possible economic and technological effects. Thus, Te-containing waste represents the source from which Te should be recycled and recovered. Among the explored strategies, the microbial TeO32− biotransformation into less toxic Te-species is the most appropriate concerning the circular economy. Actinomycetes are ideal candidates in…
Design and implementation of the AMIGA embedded system for data acquisition
2021
The successful installation, commissioning, and operation of the Pierre Auger Observatory would not have been possible without the strong commitment and effort from the technical and admin-istrative staff in Malargtie. We are very grateful to the following agencies and organizations for financial support: Comision Nacional de Energla Atomica, Agencia Nacional de Promocion Cientffica y Tec-nologica (ANPCyT) , Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Cientfficas y Tecnicas (CONICET) , Gobierno de la Provincia de Mendoza, Municipalidad de Malargtie, NDM Holdings and Valle Las Leilas, in gratitude for their continuing cooperation over land access, Argentina; the Australian Research Council; Conselho…
Effects of resistance training frequency on muscle strength, activity and mass during a 24-week intervention in the elderly
2016
Elderly populations are increasingly affected by sarcopenia, dynapenia and osteoporosis. They all increase frailty and decrease quality of life and life-expectancy. Resistance training (RT) has been reported extensively as a tool that can prevent, counter and in some cases reverse the course of the abovementioned diseases. Several studies covering RT adaptations in elderly populations have investigated periods between 6 up to 88 weeks with different frequencies, from 1 to 3 trainings / week and a wide range of intensities (30-85% or one repetition maximum) and different volumes. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of different training frequencies (one, two or three times / …

Background Contractile myofibroblasts (MFs) accumulate in the joint capsules of patients suffering from posttraumatic joint stiffness. MF activation is controlled by a complex local network of growth factors and cytokines, ending in the increased production of extracellular matrix components followed by soft tissue contracture. Despite the tremendous growth of knowledge in this field, inconsistencies remain in practice and prevention.
Case series of fluoroscopic findings and 3D reconstruction of human spinal MRIs of the space of Okada.
2020
Objective To better understand the unexpected spread of contrast medium observed by conventional fluoroscopic X-ray images during standard neuraxial techniques used in the treatment of pain. The support of 3D reconstruction of MRI images of structures within the lumbar spine was used to better understand the space of Okada. Methods Lumbar facet joint and epidural corticosteroid injections in five patients under fluoroscopic guidance with loss of resistance to air or saline to identify the facet joints or epidural space. Next, in a retrospective study, the authors examined the retrodural space of Okada and the neighboring tissues with 3D reconstruction of spinal MRIs of seven patients withou…
Comparison of frictional resistance between passive self-ligating brackets and slide-type low-friction ligature brackets during the alignment and lev…
2019
Background To compare the frictional resistance between passive self-ligating brackets and conventional brackets with low-friction ligature under bracket/archwire and root/bone interface during dental alignment and leveling. Material and methods A tridimensional model of the maxilla and teeth of a patient treated with conventional brackets, and slide ligatures was generated employing the SolidWorks modeling software. SmartClip self-ligating brackets and Logic Line conventional brackets were assembled with slide low-friction ligatures, utilizing archwires with different diameters and alloys used for the alignment and leveling stage. Friction caused during the bracket/archwire interface and s…
