Estereotipos femeninos en Disney: hacia un cuento no sexista

En este trabajo se analizan los estereotipos sexistas detectados en los filmes de la factoría Disney. En este caso, debido a la extensión limitada que debe tener el Trabajo de Final de Grado, solo se analizan cuatro películas: Blancanieves y los siete enanitos, La Sirenita, La Bella y la Bestia, y Aladdín. Se comentan detalladamente los casos de sexismo lingüístico y se citan los casos de sexismo situacional que detectamos durante el visionado de las cintas. Se ofrece, también, una propuesta alternativa de lenguaje no sexista seguido de un breve comentario traductológico de cada una de las propuestas para demostrar que es posible trabajar con un lenguaje igualitario. Además, en este trabajo de investigación se exponen, también, una serie de problemas lingüísticos que por diversos motivos no se han podido solucionar.

Efectes que tenen les jugades posteriors a la primera en els gols de la Premier League en la temporada 2011-2012 Estudi de la relació entre la posició final a la taula de classificació i els gols encaixats en jugades posteriors a la primera

L’objectiu d’aquest estudi ha estat comprovar si existeix una relació significativa entre els gols encaixats de jugades posteriors a la primera i la posició final en la taula de classificació de la Premier League durant la temporada 2011-2012. Per verificar-ho es van analitzar durant 30 jornades de la Premier League els gols que encaixaven els tres equips capdavanters i els tres últims classificats. Es va determinar com a variable independent el gol, i com a variable dependent quantes jugades s’han produït abans del gol, és a dir, si el gol és de primera jugada o de jugada posterior a la primera. Els resultats obtinguts indiquen que no hi ha una correlació significativa en els gols encaixats de jugades posteriors a la primera i la posició final a la classificació. Tot i no existir aquesta relació s’ha observat que entre un 24% i un 31% dels gols s’encaixen en jugades posteriors a la primera.

Renoncement aux soins: comment appréhender cette réalité en médecine de premier recours [Patients forgoing health care for economic reasons: how to identify this in a primary care setting?].

Although the performance of the Swiss health system is high, one out of ten patients in general practitioner's (GP) office declares having foregone care in the previous twelve months for economic reasons. Reasons for foregoing care are several and include a lack of knowledge of existing social aids in getting health insurance, unavailability of GPs and long waiting lists for various types of care. Although long term knowledge of patients or a psychosocial history of deprivation or poverty may help identify individuals at risk of foregoing care, many may remain undetected. We propose then a few instruments to help GPs to identify, in a simple and structured approach, patients at risk of forgoing care for economic reasons; these patients are frequently deprived and sometimes poor.

Evaluation of Recycled Rubber in Asphalt Cement Concrete - Field Testing, Final Report for HR-330, 330A, 330B, 330C, 330D, 2002

Roughly 242 million used tires are generated annually in the United States. Many of these tires end up being landfilled or stockpiled. The stockpiles are unsightly, unsanitary, and also collect water which creates the perfect breeding ground for mosquitoes, some of which carry disease. In an effort to reduce the number of used tire stockpiles the federal government mandated the use of recycled rubber in federally funded, state implemented department of transportation (DOT) projects. This mandate required the use of recycled rubber in 5% of the asphalt cement concrete (ACC) tonnage used in federally funded projects in 1994, increasing that amount by 5% each year until 20% was reached, and remaining at 20% thereafter. The mandate was removed as part of the appropriations process in 1994, after the projects in this research had been completed. This report covers five separate projects that were constructed by the Iowa Department Of Transportation (DOT) in 1991 and 1992. These projects had all had some form of rubber incorporated into their construction and were evaluated for 5 years. The conclusion of the study is that the pavements with tire rubber added performed essentially the same as conventional ACC pavement. An exception was the use of rubber chips in a surface lift. This performed better at crack control and worse with friction values than conventional ACC. The cost of the pavement with rubber additive was significantly higher. As a result, the benefits do not outweigh the costs of using this recycled rubber process in pavements in Iowa.

Field Evaluation of Engineering Fabrics for Asphalt Concrete Resurfacing - Audubon County, HR-360, Final Report, 2001

An ACC overlay is most often the rehabilitative effort used to maintain the serviceability of either an ACC or PCC pavement. The major problem in durability of this ACC overlay comes from reflective cracking. These cracks usually open, allowing water to enter the unsealed crack and strip the ACC in the overlay. The stripping of the ACC allows accelerated deterioration at the crack. Two engineering fabrics were evaluated in this project in order to determine their effectiveness in reducing reflective cracking. These two materials are: • PavePrep, Contech Construction Products Inc. • ProGuard, Phillips Fiber Corporation The data indicated a statistically significant decrease in reflective crack formation in the ProGuard fabric sections compared to control. There was little evidence of a similar effect from the PavePrep fabric sections compared to control. However, the rate of cracking (the rate of formation of new cracks) for both fabrics and control tended to be similar after three years. The benefits of using these fabrics (possible delay of some crack formation by two years) on this project did not outweigh the costs of up to $4200.00 per mile.

Candida : quand traiter, comment et pourquoi ? [Candida: when to treat, how and why?]

Grevées d'une mortalité comparable à celle du choc septique (40%-60%), les candidoses invasives sont une complication nosocomiale rare, mais particulièrement redoutée. Elles sont cependant difficiles à diagnostiquer, car si près de 50% des patients sont colonisés par des levures du genre Candida au cours d'un séjour prolongé en réanimation, seule une minorité d'entre eux développent une candidose sévère. En dehors des cas de candidémie, aucun test diagnostique ne permet de distinguer les patients colonisés de ceux qui sont infectés. Chez les patients présentant des facteurs de risque, la pratique de cultures de surveillance systématiques permet de déceler précocement une colonisation et d'en quantifier le degré. Un traitement préemptif peut être envisagé lorsque le degré de colonisation dépasse un seuil critique prédictif d'infection. De nouvelles classes d'antifongiques sont sur le point de révolutionner les schémas thérapeutiques actuels.

Asphalt Cement Containing AC-13, HR-522, Final Report, 1988

Stopping and turning maneuvers on high traffic volume asphalt cement concrete surfaced roads and streets often cause distortion of the pavement. Distortion may show up as excessive rutting in the wheel path, shoving of the pavement and/or rippling of the surface. Often times repeated corrective work such as cold milling or heater planing is required in these areas to maintain the pavement surface in a reasonable condition. In recent years polymer additives have been developed for asphalt cement concrete paving mixes that show promise in improving the inplace stability of the pavements. AC-13 (Styrelf 13) available from Bitucote Products Company, St. Louis, Missouri is an asphalt cement that has been modified by an additive to exhibit characteristics of very high stability in asphalt mixes.

Asphalt Rubber Cement Concrete Webster County, HR-555, Final Report, 2003

Discarded tires have become a major disposal problem in the U.S. Different techniques of recycling these discarded tires have been tried. The state of Iowa has evaluated the use of discarded tires ground into crumb rubber and blending it with asphalt to make asphalt rubber cement (ARC). This was the sixth project using this process. The project is located on US 169 from the east junction of IA 175 west and north to US 20. Only the binder course was placed during this research with the surface course to be let at a later date. There were four test sections, two sections with conventional mixtures and two with ARC mixtures. There were no significant differences in placement or performance between the two mix types. The cost of the ARC mixture was significantly higher.

Thin Bonded Overlay Evaluation, HR-559, Final Report, 2001

In 1994 the Iowa Department of Transportation constructed a 7.2-mile Portland Cement Concrete overlay project in Iowa County on Iowa Highway 21. The research work was conducted in cooperation with the Department of Civil Engineering and the Federal Highway Administration under the Iowa Highway Research Board project HR-559. The project was constructed to evaluate the performance of an ultrathin concrete overlay during a 5-year period. The experiment included variables of base surface preparation, overlay depth, joint spacing, fiber reinforcement, and the sealed or non-sealed joints. The project was instrumented to measure overlay/base interface temperatures and strains. Visual distress surveys and deflection testing were also used to monitor performance. Coring and direct shear testing was accomplished 3 times during the research period. Results of the testing and monitoring are identified in the report. The experiment was very successful and the results provide an insight into construction and design needs to be considered in tailoring a portland cement concrete overlay to a performance need. The results also indicate a method to monitor bond with nondestructive methods.

Patients âgées vulnérables au cabinet: comment les identifier et quelles ressources mobiliser [Vulnerable older patients in primary care how to identify them? Which ressources to mobilize? ].

Trust is essential to foster and preserve a long-term relationship between primary care physicians and their patients suffering from chronic diseases. However, this relation remains insufficient to successfully manage more complex situations, such as those of older patients with multiple diseases and disability. For the primary care physician, a significant limitation is the time required to plan and coordinate interventions supplied by different health and social care providers. This article describes a structured approach to support primary care physicians in this difficult task and help them to identify vulnerable older patients requiring to mobilize and coordinate health and social care resources. Current and future resources available to family physicians to complete this challenging task are further described.

Comment prescrire les hormones thyroïdiennes [How to prescribe thyroid hormones]

Thyroid substitution is generally considered easy as well by general practitioners as by specialists, considering that a single hormone levothyroxin is recommended and that laboratory tests are readily available for measurement of free T4 and TSH. However cross sectional studies have shown that about 45% of patients are over-treated and under-treated. This paper summarizes the critical information useful to facilitate a better management of hypothyroid patients by promoting long lasting euthyroidism.

Pooled Fund Study of Premature Concrete Pavement Deterioration, HR-1063, Final Report, 1997

Recently, a number of roads have begun to exhibit the onset of deterioration at relatively early ages. Since this deterioration appears to be the result of materials issues, data concerning raw materials, design, and paving conditions have been collected and analyzed for correlation between independent variables and deterioration. This analysis shows that there is a positive and statistically significant correlation between deterioration and the following variables: alkali and sulfate content of the cementitious materials, impermeable base course, paving temperature, and the presence of fly ash. This study also concludes that there is a significant need for improvement in data collection and maintenance by many organizations responsible for the production of concrete
