Making Biosciences Visible for Popular Consumption: Approaching Image–Text Relations in Newscientist.com Through a Critical Multimodal Analysis
2018
Salience or visibility of science-related issues can be strategically projected by means of linguistic and visual resources. This article presents a methodology for examining the relations between the textual properties of popular science discourse and the visual features of accompanying images. The advantages of this approach are demonstrated through a multimodal analysis of a sample of biomedical articles from New Scientist, which reveals the frequency and distribution of selected properties of visual images, typical aspects of layout, attributed functions of the images, and their relation to the text. Humanization, domestication, and aesthetization are dominant discursive strategies of …
L'écriture des documents numériques : Approche ergonomique
2007
Cet ouvrage traite de la conception de documents numériques utilisés en contexte professionnel et étudie en particulier les deux thèmes suivants : le découpage de l'information pour la mise en écran, les organisateurs de structure, de navigation et de mise en relief de l'information. L'influence sur la lecture des dispositifs de mise en forme matérielle et des organisateurs de structure et de navigation est souvent méconnue. Aussi les méthodes destinées à tester le rôle des dispositifs de mise en forme revêtent-elles une importance capitale et sont présentées à la fin de cet ouvrage. Les spécificités des supports (document papier et document numérique) sont également abordées en termes de c…
The Assessment of Well-being in Context of Regional Development
2014
The aim of the paper is to present the methodology and results of some empirical research of the assessment of well-being at local level in context of regional development. To achieve the aim, such qualitative and quantitative methods of research as comparing, grouping, graphical analysis and focus group methods were be used. The main result and finding of the paper is the conclusion that in order to promote the regional development of the territory, the assessment of well-being at the level of administrative territory is needed. Based on this assessment, the policy can be developed in order to promote the regional development and social cohesion of the territory, as well as to have better …
The Pro-Inflammatory IL23/IL23R/IL17 Axis Is Active in IL23R-Expressing Circulating CLL Cells in Patients with Poor Prognosis
2012
Abstract Abstract 3889 Inflammatory cytokines play a biological role in the pathogenesis of Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). IL23 is a pro-inflammatory cytokine involved in T-cell responses and in tissue remodeling. It has been shown that the IL23 receptor (IL23R) is up-regulated in primary acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) cells, and that IL23 inhibits ALL cell growth. Nevertheless, the anti-tumor function of IL23 still remains controversial. The role of the IL23R/IL23 axis in CLL has not been investigated so far. Herein we evaluated the expression pattern of IL23R/IL23 axis and its correlation with progression free survival (PFS) in CLL patients. A total of 233 newly diagnosed Binet s…
Influence of sutures configuration on the strength of tendon-patch joints for rotator cuff tears treatment
2019
Abstract Purpose Massive rotator cuff tears are common in the aging population. The incidence of failed rotator cuff repairs is still quite high, especially in the treatment of full-thickness tears or revision repairs. In this context, natural and synthetic meshes can be used as augmentation scaffolds or as devices to close the gap between a retracted tendon and the bone. The purpose of this work is to evaluate the ultimate tensile strength of different tendon-patch joints in order to consider their use in the treatment of massive cuff tears. Materials and methods Porcine tendons and a synthetic low-density polypropylene mesh have been used. A preliminary study on the tensile strength of te…
El periplo del objeto mitológico: itinerarios simbólicos del arte prehispánico entre los siglos XVI y XX
2014
Resumen : El presente texto discute la “identidad” que los objetos de arte prehispanico adquirieron desde el siglo XVI hasta mediados del siglo XX de acuerdo a los circuitos que recorrieron y los sujetos que los coleccionaron, miraron y pensaron. Itinerarios concretos: del contexto ritual al gabinete de curiosidades, del gabinete al museo arqueologico, del museo arqueologico a la muestra en espacios de arte. Itinerario que expresa las significaciones que el moderno Occidente les asigno en relacion a sus propias necesidades, anhelos y carencias. --------------------------- Abstract : This text discusses the "identity" that pre-Hispanic art objects acquired from the sixteenth to the twentieth…
Museums as participants in the market game: The political and economic context of the functioning of the museums
2017
Under the influence of contemporary social and political changes, which have resulted in, inter alia, changes in the structure of museum audiences and their expectations, museums have had to implement new practices and tools which were previously not present in their fields of interest. these processes changed the definition of the mission of a contemporary museum and the way of ommunicating with participants of culture. today a museum, like every other institution on the entertainment and leisure market, has to attract recipients of its offer. Museums thus engage in ever more close relationships with the field of economy. Moreover, the model of public financing of culture subjects the acti…
