several studies have shown that decidual tissue produces soluble factors which can mediate a variety of immunosuppressive activities. in order to assess whether prostaglandin e2 (pge2) was present in supernatants produced by explant culture of 10 human specimens of first trimester decidua. the effect of the supernatants from the two different series (with and without indomethacin treatment) of ...

OBJECTIVE Due to the development of medical education in the past decade the role of teachers has changed and requires higher didactic competence. Student evaluation of teaching alone does not lead to considerable improvement of teaching quality. We present the concept of "Integrative Teaching Consultation", which comprises both the teacher's reflection and own objectives to improve their teach...

Introduction: The most important change in medical education is a shift from didactic teacher-centered and subject-based teaching to the use of interactive, problem-based, student-centered learning. Student-centered approach is a teaching approach t that encompasses replacing lectures with active learning, integrating self-paced learning programs and cooperative group situations, ultimately hol...

This paper deals with Student t-processes as studied in (Cufaro Petroni 2007). We prove and extend some conjectures expressed by Cufaro Petroni about the asymptotical behavior of a Student t-process and the expansion of its density. First, the explicit asymptotic behavior of any real positive convolution power of a Student t-density with any real positive degrees of freedom is given in the mult...
