The energy requalification of the existing building heritage is one of the pillars European Union energy policy. A large part of the building heritage was built without taking into consideration the problem of energy consumption. With the aim of energy efficiency and energy savings in electrical uses, there are wide and diversified possibilities for improvement, including interventions on the building envelope and on the systems, with the introduction, where possible, of renewable energy sources. In this context, the redevelopment of historic buildings constitutes an important challenge, which involves both historical-artistic aspects and technological aspects relating to the improvement of energy efficiency and comfort. A critical analysis of every possibility is essential to preserve the balance between efficiency and architecture. The purpose of the study is the energy retrofitting of the Institute of General Physiology located within the "Sapienza" University campus. The proposed interventions include the renovation of the whole building envelope, investigated by thermographic surveys, and the installation of new heating and cooling systems. The results were analysed to identify the best intervention for a sustainable energy renovation of the historic building, taking into account the preservation of its architectural values and making it suitable for modern use.

In: Working with older people: community care policy & practice, Band 19, Heft 4, S. 165-169
ISSN: 2042-8790
Purpose
– The purpose of this paper is to disseminate the learning from the positive ageing and positive living projects of the Beth Johnson Foundation (BJF) and to contribute to the discourse around ageing and older people.
Design/methodology/approach
– The content for this case study was drawn from evidence gathering activities with different generations of older people, with key stakeholders, commissioners and policy makers. This was supported by extensive desk top analysis of information and research on the subjects of positive and active ageing.
Findings
– This case study examines the key elements of positive ageing within a life course context and explores the language and culture around ageing. It makes some recommendations, based on practice, that support a change in the dialogue around ageing from positive ageing to positive living.
Practical implications
– This approach is of interest to all citizens, to those who work with older people, to commissioners and to decision makers. It promotes a multi-generational approach to the co-design of services. It supports prevention, health promotion and appropriate interventions which are not based on age. It also, therefore, promotes ageing as a "natural" part of the life course, challenges negative stereotypes around ageing and ensures accessible, inclusive and quality services.
Social implications
– The content and conclusions of the case study challenge some of the traditional thinking and approaches around ageing and recommend a more inclusive approach to service design and delivery. The case study also addresses some of the issues around the language used and the culture around ageing which will contribute to a more forward thinking approach.
Originality/value
– This is an original case study based on the work of the BJF over a ten year period as it developed its' Positive Ageing and Positive Living programmes. BJF has been at the forefront of the positive ageing movement by developing mid-life programmes of work and is acknowledged as an expert organisation in the field of intergenerational (and now multi-generational) practice and age friendly communities.
This dissertation is a brief monographic study of noted American Indian artist-Jaune Quick-to-See Smith. No such study of Smith has been completed to date. This particular study is different because it consists of a Native woman looking at another Native woman's art as well as the desires and intents that go into the production of her artwork. The document is comprised of six chapters and a glossary. The first chapter is a brief introduction followed by a literature review. It is a synopsis of a variety of sources--journals, newspaper articles, and texts. Smith's popularity has been on the rise since the 1980's but little writing exists on her outside of reviews. I attempted to give a chronological examination of writings on Smith on various sub-sets, including Smith's predecessors in "Native American Modernism," then on to Smith with "Identity and Influence," Smith's "Success as a Native American Artist," "Smith's Evolution of Style," "The Debate Over Chief Seattle," and finally a brief segment on "Feminist Art and Smith." I examine the evolution of Smith's style and the subtle inter-relationships produced between her works with both a summary and synthesis of these relationships and influences. Chapter two gives insight into Smith's biography: her father and his influence, her childhood, teenage years, education. And it also includes a brief look into her adult life. Chapter three discusses Smith's activism, her involvement in artistic cooperatives, and her earliest works. Smith formed two cooperatives that were integral to the art communities' recognition of American Indian work as a viable form contemporary art and not just crafts and tourist trinkets. It considers reviews written about the group exhibitions that Smith formed some of them the first of their kind. Chapter four analyzes Smith's works and her style's evolution from "nomad art" and landscapes to political art, her appropriation of commercialism and other art styles and how she incorporates her unique form of Native humor to extol how humor has ...

A variety of strongly electron rich aryl chlorides, previously hardly reactive, could be efficiently coupled with aliphatic Grignard reagents at room temperature in high yields and within a few minutes' residence time, considerably enhancing the applicability of this iron‐catalyzed reaction. The robustness of this protocol was demonstrated on a multigram scale, thus providing the potential for future pharmaceutical application. ; Publisher PDF ; Peer reviewed

Ever since I was a graduate student at the University of Chicago in October 1962, I have been interested in challenges at the global scale that could affect the future of humanity. The Cuban Missile Crisis brought home to me how vulnerable we are. Indeed it brought home that we could be dead from causes thousands of miles away with a warning of a maximum of thirty minutes. It was obvious the world was becoming smaller. As I looked out the window from my apartment in Chicago, I could see ch- dren of school age at play in the alley - despite it being a weekday. They weren't in school. One rarely saw adult men with them - only women. What con- quences would that bring? Not far away was the headquarters of a strange group calling themselves the Black Moslems. There was a palpable anger that radiated from there. Where would this lead? Was there not a breaking point in how much difference in wealth and general well-being could be tolerated? I became increasingly interested in international politics, in particular about how we governed ourselves through international institutions and international law. Hans Morgenthau emphasized to us the importance of national interests. It became clear to me that governments needed interests as an incentive to act, c- tainly if there were important consequences in acting. Values were important but were not a sufficient condition.
International audience ; Hepatitis C is a transmissible hepatic and extra-hepatic disease caused by the hepatitis C virus (HCV). HCV develops into a chronic infection among approximately 70% of the contaminated subjects. Chronic HCV infection is estimated to affect between 0.5% and 1 % of the general population in France, which causes an important burden of disease, in particular due to the occurrence of cirrhosis and liver cancer. New antiviral drugs now allow to cure more than 95% of patients in just a few weeks of treatment with very limited safety issues. This therapeutic revolution has led the World Health Organization and many national governments to aim for an elimination of HCV, which has been defined as a 90%-reduction of the incidence rate, and a 65%-reduction in the number of HCV-related deaths on the basis of the 2015 figures. In this respect, the French Ministry of Health has recently decided to extend the ability to prescribe the new antiviral drugs to any physician. However, the elimination campaign of HCV will also need to correctly identify, screen, and treat the main target populations. If people who inject drugs (PWIDs) certainly constitute the most important population concerned by the challenge of HCV elimination, more hidden reservoirs in which HCV transmission can insidiously evolve should be identified and specifically targeted as well. Inpatient psychiatric populations might constitute one of these hidden reservoirs. International data suggest that chronic HCV infection affects approximately 5% of psychiatric inpatients in Europe. This very high prevalence estimate can in part be due to the very frequent psychiatric disorders found among the current or former PWIDs. However, a part of the seropositive patients does not report a history of drug use, and other factors could contribute to the increased risk of contamination in this population including atypical routes of transmission related to institutional promiscuity. Exploring the general profile and risk-behaviors of the psychiatric ...
