No full textResponding to students’ learning needs: how secondary education teachers learn to implement differentiated instruction.
No full textAs student populations in schools become more diverse in many western countries, the urge for teachers to provide instruction that caters for students' needs increases concurrently. Teachers however find it difficult to put differentiated instruction into practice. This study is based on an action research project that documented teachers' professional development. Three teams of secondary education teachers were trained and coached to implement differentiated instruction in their classrooms. They planned their instructional design collaboratively to align with the contextuality of their school and while implementing the planned instructional design, they responded to students with diverse readi\]ness levels or learning profiles. Teachers' implementation of differentiated instruction was observed and interpreted using an action research methodology. Results show that teachers struggled in assessing students' differences. Moreover, teachers' responsivity appeared to be determined not only by cognitive traits but also by other types of individual differences. Implications for theory and practice are discussed
Ulcera peristomale
No full textLa Riunione regionale umbra di Dermatologia è organizzata dalla Sezione di Dermatologia clinica, allergologica e venereologica del Dipartimento di Medicina dell’Università di Perugia ed è destinata ai dermatologi umbri e delle regioni confinanti e agli infermieri che operano nelle strutture dermatologiche dell’Umbria, rappresentando non solo uno stimolante e costruttivo appuntamento di aggiornamento professionale ma anche un’occasione di confronto.
Il programma scientifico della Riunione prevede una tavola rotonda sulla psoriasi, patologia che coinvolge fino al 5% della popolazione mondiale e nel 30% dei casi è associata ad artropatia, che specie quando di grado moderato/severo, induce importante deterioramento della qualità di vita. Verranno discusse le metodiche terapeutiche più innovative di tale patologia dermatologica, anche alla luce delle nuove acquisizione patogenetiche. In particolare, sarà affrontato il ruolo di IL-17a nella psoriasi e dei suoi risvolti terapeutici nella gestione del paziente psoriasico.
Sono inoltre previste sessioni su:
Dermatologia oncologica (melanoma e micosi fungoide);
Dermatologia allergologica (reazioni avverse cutaneo-mucose a farmaci);
Dermatologia immunomediata (lupus eritematoso);
Terapia dermatologica (trattamento degli emangiomi infantili).
Si tratta di argomenti complessi di vari settori della Dermatologia, la cui gestione clinico-diagnostica e terapeutica non è agevole. I Relatori, sulla base dei dati della letteratura e della propria esperienza personale, esamineranno criticamente i temi al fine di suggerire uniformi modalità operative.
Completeranno la Riunione 2 sessioni di casistica clinica dermatologica, nelle quali saranno presentate e discusse con modalità interattiva esperienze cliniche riservando ampio spazio alla discussione del loro approccio clinico-diagnostico e gestione terapeutica
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Anafilassi da magnesio stearato
No full textA case of a 49-year-old non atopic woman who suffered from anaphylaxis characterized by erythematous-oedematous rash, cough and loss of awareness after oral therapy with ciprofloxacin and others drugs, mostly antibiotics, is reported. Allergodiagnostic in vivo investigations (patch test, prick test and intradermal testing with incriminated and alternative drugs, oral and intramuscular challenge tests with alternative drugs and placebo) were done: multiple anaphylactic reactions were observed but only when the patient was orally administered drugs containing magnesium stearate as excipient. This is a chemical widely used in the pharmaceutic industry for its excellent anti-binder properties. It is used for the preparation of numerous drugs in tablets, capsules, and sachets increasing the flowability, reducing the adherent ability, facilitating the progressive absorption of the active principle and its sustained release. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of anaphylaxis induced by magnesium stearate
