Metodologie geostatistiche nel idrogeologico
No full textThis thesis is concerned with environmental and hydrogeological issues approached by geostatistical methods. The objectives of this study are to apply geostatistical tools (like variogram, kriging methods) to different hydrogeological parameters for mapping the data.
The first part of the work is dedicated to presenting the geostatistical theory, giving more weight to those aspects (exploratory data analysis, indicator coding of information, using of secondary information) that play an important role in hydrogeological and environmental issues.
Then, two hydrogeological and environmental issues, whose sites are all located in Veneto Region (Italy), are approached by using geostatistical methods.
Case Study 1. Spatial distribution of Ground Water Temperature in Veneto Region
The geostatistical methodology is applied to a groundwater Temperature case in an area situated near Padova (northeast Italy). The analysis of 145 ground water temperature measurements, ranging between 10°C and 17°C, and of 100 meters in depth. This pattern in the spatial distribution of temperatures to some extent seems related to the structural framework of the area and should be taken into account when quantifying spatial distribution of temperature. Geoatatistical tools including Ordinary Kriging and Indicator kriging are applied for ground water temperature values.
Case study 2. Spatial distribution of Chlorine in the Geothermal Euganean field
The Euganean geothermal reservoir is principally located in fractured Mesozoic limestone. The analysis of 19 ground water Chlorine measurements, 200 meters in depth, ranging between 1410 mg/l and 2750 mg/l, reveals that the spatial distribution of Chlorine along the geothermal area is characterized by some degree of spatial continuity. Ground water Temperature measurement ranged between 60°C and 86°C. Finally, results are presented and discussed for Ordinary Kriging and Cokriging.In questa tesi vengono affrontate una serie di problematiche di tipo idrogeologico ed ambientale secondo la metodologia geostatistica. Gli obiettivi di questo studio sono quelli di applicare gli strumenti della geostatistica (variogrammi, metodi kriging, etc.) a deversi parameteri idrogelogici per la mappatura dei dati.
Nella parte iniziale della tesi, ci si dedica all‟esposizione e all‟approfondimento di queste tematiche (analisi esplorativa dei dati, ecodifica indicativa dell‟informazione) che risultano particolarmente rilevanti nel contesto idrogeologico ed ambientale.
Caso Studio 1. Distribuzione spaziale delle temperatura delle acque sotterranee nella Regione Veneto
I metodi di analisi geostatistici sono stati applicati allo studio delle temperatura delle acque sotterranee, nella Region Veneto (Italia). L‟analisi dei 145 valori di temperatura delle acque sotterranee, oscillanti tra i 10 oC e gli 17 oC, ad un profondità di 100 m. La struttura di continuità spaziale sembra in qualche modo relazionata alle caratteristiche tettonico-strutturali dell‟area, questo fattore deve essere tenuto in considerazione nel processo di distribuzione spaziale delle temperature. Sono stati applicati per i valori della temperatura delle acque sotterranee il Kriging Ordinario ed il Kriging indicatore.
Caso studio 2. Distribuzione del Cloruri nel bacino Termale Euganeo
Il reservoir termale considerato e` localizzato principalmente nel calcare fratturato mesozoico dell‟area euganea (Regione Veneto, Italia). L‟analisi di 19 valori di Cloruri delle acque termali, oscillanti tra i 1410 mg/l e gli 2750 mg/l, ad un profondità di 200 m, evidenziano la presenza di una certa continuità nella distribuzione spaziale dei Cloruri. Vengono inoltre confrontati i valori di cloruri con i valori di temperatura delle acque termali, oscillanti tra i 60 oC e gli 86 oC. Conseguentemente, è stato sffettuata l‟analisi attraverso il Kriging Ordinario e Cokriging

Geoelectric and mineralogical studies for foundation soil characterization in new Luxor city, Upper Egypt
No full textThe new Luxor city was proposed by the Egyptian government as a new constructional and building site in order to face the increasing population density around the two banks of the river Nile. It is important prior construction of buildings to characterize the foundation soil. So, vertical electrical resistivity survey and mineralogical investigation were conducted for this purpose. The results obtained from the interpretation of the sounding data indicate that the lithological succession of the study area consists of four geoelectric layers. The top layer corresponds to the surface loose sediments of conglomerate, gravel, and sand. The second geoelectric layer is composed of sand and gravel. The third layer is composed of silty clay, sandy clay, and clayey sand. The fourth geoelectric layer is composed of dry sandstone. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) results of samples collected from the clay-rich layer revealed the presence of smectite mineral as predominate clay minerals which is characterized by its swell potentiality on wetting. Accordingly, the clay zone recorded within the third layer must be taken into consideration during designing the foundations at new Luxor city especially this layer was located at shallow depth range between 1.6 and 7.5 m and attains a relatively big thickness that reach up to 33.5 m in some parts. This study emphasizes the importance of the integration of geophysical investigation and mineralogical analysis of the foundation soil for optimal characterization of a site
Effect of Nursing Care Protocol on Nurses' Competency regards Children with Thalassemia
No full textAbstract: Thalassemia is estimated to affect one thousand children out of every 1.5 million live births in Egypt. Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of nursing care protocol on nurses' knowledge and practice provided to children with thalassemia. Design: A quasi-experimental (pre, post, and follow-up test) was used. Setting: This study was conducted in Pediatric Department at El Menoufia University Hospital, Egypt. Sample: A purposive 35 pediatric nurses providing care to children with thalassemia. Instruments: A structured interview questionnaire to assess nurses’ knowledge about thalassemia and an observational checklist to assess nurses’ practice provided to children with thalassemia. Results: A highly statistically significant difference was found between pre and post-tests and between post and follow-up tests. It noted that none of the studied nurses had competent nursing practice on the pre-test. Meanwhile, all of them (100%) had competent nursing practice on post-test. Also, a highly statistically significant positive correlation between total knowledge and total practice score. Conclusion: Nurses who received nursing care protocol had a higher level of knowledge and practice on post and follow-up tests compared to the pre-test. Recommendations: Continuous training program for developing nurses' knowledge and practices regarding nursing care protocol of thalassemia.

Future regenerative medicine developments and their therapeutic applications
No full text: Although the currently available pharmacological assays can cure most pathological disorders, they have limited therapeutic value in relieving certain disorders like myocardial infarct, peripheral vascular disease, amputated limbs, or organ failure (e.g. renal failure). Pilot studies to overcome such problems using regenerative medicine (RM) delivered promising data. Comprehensive investigations of RM in zebrafish or reptilians are necessary for better understanding. However, the precise mechanisms remain poorly understood despite the tremendous amount of data obtained using the zebrafish model investigating the exact mechanisms behind their regenerative capability. Indeed, understanding such mechanisms and their application to humans can save millions of lives from dying due to potentially life-threatening events. Recent studies have launched a revolution in replacing damaged human organs via different approaches in the last few decades. The newly established branch of medicine (known as Regenerative Medicine aims to enhance natural repair mechanisms. This can be done through the application of several advanced broad-spectrum technologies such as organ transplantation, tissue engineering, and application of Scaffolds technology (support vascularization using an extracellular matrix), stem cell therapy, miRNA treatment, development of 3D mini-organs (organoids), and the construction of artificial tissues using nanomedicine and 3D bio-printers. Moreover, in the next few decades, revolutionary approaches in regenerative medicine will be applied based on artificial intelligence and wireless data exchange, soft intelligence biomaterials, nanorobotics, and even living robotics capable of self-repair. The present work presents a comprehensive overview that summarizes the new and future advances in the field of RM
