This paper presents the design of a system of data acquisition and monitoring in a modern intensive care unit and in a coronary care unit. A great emphasis was placed on the acceptability of this system, above all in the design of the user interface. This was due to the fact that in these two wards people were still using paper to record data...

Load forecasting is a useful resource for electric systems security, in order to provide valuable information to detect many vulnerable situations in advance. This resource become essential in a hospital reality, because of the continuous use of new technological instruments that require electricity. In this work a hospital energy load forecast...

A new method to analyze single ionic channel current conduction is presented. It is based on an automatic classification by K-means algorithm and on the concept of information entropy. This method is used to study the conductance of multistate ion current jumps induced by tetanus toxin in planar lipid bilayers. A comparison is presented with...

As Salvia exudates in a screening work have shown to possess inhibitory activity on the germination of Papaver rhoeas L. and Avena sativa L., a database for fast and efficient data collection among the various collaborating groups to be used in the following research steps to define the allelopathic potential of these species has been...

Short-term load forecasting can provide information which is applicable for the possible energy interchange with other utilities. Load forecasting is also advantegeous for system security, in fact if applied to the system security assessment problem, it can provide valuable information to detect many vulnerable situations in advance. In...

Gastroesophageal reflux disease is a serious clinical problem, which can significantly impair health-related quality of life, thus having global implications for patients. The first step for a doctor is the clinical classification of the patients, divided into classes after being subjected to endoscopic examinations to control if there are...

Quantification of p24 antigen is still very important for HIV management, especially for diagnosis of perinatal human immunodeficiency virus type 1 infection. In 1998 M.Giacomini and O.E.Varnier develop a software (quanti-Kin Detecion System) for p24 quantification, but over the years some problems have arisen. So a new version, with a user...

In precedenti lavori1,2 è stato dimostrato come l'estratto di alcune specie di Salvia spp. è efficace come antigerminativo. In questi lavori sono stati applicati vari metodi di statistica classica che hanno confermato questa efficacia, ma non sono stati in grado di distinguere i livelli di efficacia ottenuti dalle diverse specie di Salvia....

In a screening work Salvia exudates have shown to possess inhibitory activity on the germination of Papaver rhoeas L. and Avena sativa L.. A database for fast and efficient data collection among the various collaborating groups has been developed in order to define the allelopathic potential of these species. Data about the effect of 13 species...

A screening study on the anti-germination activity of the fresh aerial part plant exudates of thirteen species of Salvia L.(Lamiaceae) against Papaver rhoeas L. and Avena sativa L. in Petri dish and pot experiments, evaluated on the basis of statistical indices both classical ones [1, 2] and proposed by our group has been carried out. All...

The outlook to use crop residues, cover crops and plant residues with high content of allelochemicals into the soil, as well as extracts of allelopathic plants, can provide selective weed control through the release of allelochemicals [1-3] and can contribute to the maintenance and the development of sustainable agro-ecosystems. As Salvia...

Abstract: In order to define the phytotoxic potential of Salvia species a database was developed for fast and efficient data collection in screening studies of the inhibitory activity of Salvia exudates on the germination of Papaver rhoeas L. and Avena sativa L.. The structure of the database is associated with the use of algorithms for...

Salvia species are used as antitumor agents in folk medicine in various parts of the world [1-3] and various extracts and isolated compounds have been shown to possess cytotoxic and antiproliferative activity [4-7]. In this work we evaluated the antiproliferative activity of the secretion material of several Salvia species, namely Salvia...

The dissemination of result is a crucial point in the development of one research project. In many cases for some specific parts also the diffusion of layman presentation results toward the general public is also within the objects of the horizontal activities of a project and the most suitable tool for this dissemination activity is the web...
