Ultrastructure and Organization of the Cytoskeleton in Oxymonas, an Intestinal Flagellate of Termites
1997
ABSTRACT. Oxymonas has the characteristic structures and organization of other oxymonads including two separated pairs of basal bodies/flagella, a preaxostylar lamina, a paracrystalline axostyle, and an absence of mitochondria and Golgi. Like other Oxymonadinae genera it possesses a long proboscis, the rostellum which is terminated by the holdfast. Like the genera Pyrsonympha and Streblomastix, Oxymonas possesses a holdfast which permits it to attach to the cuticle of the termite hind-gut. This holdfast is subdivided into rhizoids and is filled with microfilaments. The rostellum is variable in length and contains two distinct microtubular bundles. One bundle is composed of convoluted microt…
Effects of heat and cold on health, with special reference to Finnish sauna bathing.
2018
Environmental stress such as extremely warm or cold temperature is often considered a challenge to human health and body homeostasis. However, the human body can adapt relatively well to heat and cold environments, and recent studies have also elucidated that particularly heat stress might be even highly beneficial for human health. Consequently, the aim of the present brief review is first to discuss general cardiovascular and other responses to acute heat stress, followed by a review of beneficial effects of Finnish sauna bathing on general and cardiovascular health and mortality as well as dementia and Alzheimer's disease risk. Plausible mechanisms included are improved endothelial and …

This study contributes to the therapist variable in general and the personality profile of securely and insecurely attached psychotherapists and other healthcare professionals in particular. In a preceding study, it has been found that insecurely attached psychotherapists differ in nine personality styles from securely attached ones. The aim of the present study was to replicate these findings and to investigate whether they also apply to other health professions such as dentists. About 891 subjects from two German professional societies for hypnosis were surveyed online with a personality questionnaire [Personality Styles and Disorder Inventory (PSDI)] and an attachment questionnaire [Rela…
Costruzione e validazione del questionario DIDLab “La didattica Laboratoriale: apprendimenti e stili di conduzione con l’approccio IBSE”
2021
Il presente lavoro espone gli esiti della costruzione e validazione del questiona-rio “La didattica Laboratoriale: apprendimenti e stili di conduzione con l’ap-proccio IBSE” finalizzato a misurare il grado di conoscenza dell’approccio In-quiry-Based Science Education e lo stile di conduzione nella didattica labora-toriale, che ha visto coinvolti 523 corsisti del corso di specializzazione per le attività di sostegno didattico dell’Università degli Studi di Palermo; il test di misurazione costruito è composto da 42 item suddiviso in cinque macro-aree su scala Likert a 5 punti. Dall’analisi quantitativa condotta è emerso che il questionario ha buona con-cordanza, pensato per indagare sulle con…
Intuitive eating: A novel eating style? Evidence from a Spanish sample
2020
Contains fulltext : 217000.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Closed access) Intuitive eating is defined as an adaptive way of eating that maintains a strong connection with the internal physiological signs of hunger and satiety. It has four elements: unconditional permission to eat whenever and whatever food is desired, eating for physical rather than for emotional reasons, reliance on hunger and satiety cues to determine when and how much to eat, and body-food choice congruence. In this study, we assessed the differences and similarities between intuitive eating, as measured with the Intuitive Eating Scale-2, and eating styles (restrained, emotional, and external eating), as assessed with the Du…
Dyslipidemia management with medical nutrition therapy: current status and perspectives
2013
In Italy, patients with dyslipidennia account for 15-20% of the adult population with major healthcare and socio-economic impact. According to the ESC/EAS guidelines for the management of dyslipidemias, desirable cholesterol and triglyceride levels can be achieved with a synergy between drug treatment and adequate diet therapy. However, what diets should be adopted? In this review article, different types of dietary treatments are compared, with a special focus on diet education. The new scientific frontier of nutrigenetics is also discussed.
Reducing Electric and Thermal Energy Needs in Buildings by Using Innovative Envelope Materials
2018
The life style of building occupants is continuously arising towards conditions that are more comfortable involving, on turn, the growing of the electric energy consumptions for climatization purposes. This calls for the improvement of the efficiencies of equipment along with environmental performance of building materials. Laboratory analyses of samples of mixed materials, utilizing tomato stems harvested in Sicily and Cataluna, have been conducted Thermal conductance and mechanical properties have been detected for different rates of bio-component and inert materials. First results of the thermal properties seem to situate such bio-composites among the insulating building materials, for a…
Adaptación en la infancia: influencia del estilo parental y del estado de ánimo
2016
La adaptación en la infancia hace referencia al ajuste personal, social y familiar que los niños manifiestan. Esta variable está relacionada con factores personales y familiares que influyen en su desarrollo. Entre ellos los estados emocionales y el estilo educativo que los padres utilizan para educar a sus hijos. El objetivo del presente trabajo es estudiar el valor predictivo de los estilos parentales y los estados emocionales sobre la adaptación infantil. Los participantes fueron 1129 niños entre 8 y 12 años de colegios de la Comunidad Valenciana. Los estilos educativos se evaluaron con las Escalas de Identificación de “Prácticas Educativas Familiares”, los estados de ánimo a través de T…
A Comparison of Language Identification Approaches on Short, Query-Style Texts
2010
In a multi-language Information Retrieval setting, the knowledge about the language of a user query is important for further processing. Hence, we compare the performance of some typical approaches for language detection on very short, query-style texts. The results show that already for single words an accuracy of more than 80% can be achieved, for slightly longer texts we even observed accuracy values close to 100%.
