Integration of pomace and grape seeds in feed of broiler chickens: effect on the chemical characteristics of the meat
2023
Recently, consumer demand for healthier, safer, good quality food products has increased. The use of grape pomace and grape seeds, natural antioxidants rich in polyphenols and known for their ability to prevent lipid oxidation, has attracted significant interest and could become an important alternative as a partial substitute for vitamin E which is the most commonly used antioxidant in animal diets. In this context, the valorization and reuse of wine industry wastes could be a way to reduce costs for companies and damage to the environment [1]. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of adding different percentages of pomace and grape seeds to the diet of broiler chickens. T…
Genetic and pharmacological modulation of DNA mismatch repair heterogeneous tumors promotes immune surveillance.
2023
Patients affected by colorectal cancer (CRC) with DNA mismatch repair deficiency (MMRd), often respond to immune checkpoint blockade therapies, while those with mismatch repair-proficient (MMRp) tumors generally do not. Interestingly, a subset of MMRp CRCs contains variable fractions of MMRd cells, but it is unknown how their presence impacts immune surveillance. We asked whether modulation of the MMRd fraction in MMR heterogeneous tumors acts as an endogenous cancer vaccine by promoting immune surveillance. To test this hypothesis, we use isogenic MMRp (Mlh1+/+) and MMRd (Mlh1-/-) mouse CRC cells. MMRp/MMRd cells mixed at different ratios are injected in immunocompetent mice and tumor reje…

2023
I denne masteroppgaven i profesjonsrettet spesialpedagogikk rettes søkelyset mot pedagogers forståelse og erfaringer knyttet til innagerende atferd, og om hvordan de tilrettelegger for elever som viser slik atferd skal delta mer i lek og samspill i skolen. Problemstillingen for studien er følgende: Hvordan forstår pedagoger innagerende atferd, og hvordan tilrettelegger de for at elever som viser slik atferd skal delta mer i lek og samspill i grunnskolen? For å belyse problemstillingen ble tre pedagoger intervjuet om hvordan de hadde tilrettelagt, og hvilke tiltak de hadde satt i gang for å hjelpe elever de hadde hatt inn i lek og samspill. Formålet med studien var å synliggjøre elever som v…

Measuring Movie Script Similarity using Characters, Keywords, Locations, and Interactions
2023
Measuring similarity between multilayer networks is difficult, as it involves various layers and relationships that are challenging to capture using distance measures. Existing techniques have focused on comparing layers with the same number of nodes and ignoring interrelationships. In this research, we propose a new approach for measuring the similarity between multilayer networks while considering interrelationships and networks of various sizes. We apply this approach to multilayer movie networks composed of layers of different entities (character, keyword, and location) and interrelationships between them. The proposed method captures intra-layer and inter-layer relationships, providing…

Healing Grief: A Commentary on Seneca's Consolatio ad Marciam
2023
Both our view of Seneca’s philosophical thought and our approach to the ancient consolatory genre have radically changed since the latest commentary on the Consolatio ad Marciam was written in 1981. The aim of this work is to offer a new book-length commentary on the earliest of Seneca’s extant writings, along with a revision of the Latin text and a reassessment of Seneca’s intellectual program, strategies, and context. A crucial document to penetrate Seneca’s discourse on the self in its embryonic stages, the Ad Marciam is here taken seriously as an engaging attempt to direct the persuasive power of literary models and rhetorical devices toward the fundamentally moral project of healing Ma…
"Jokainen opiskelija asettaa itse omat tavoitteensa" : lukion vieraiden kielten opettajien käytänteitä ja käsityksiä eriyttävästä arvioinnista
2023
Tarkastelimme lukion kieltenopettajien käsityksiä ja käytäntöjä eriyttävästä arvioinnista. Aineisto kerättiin kyselylomakkeella (n=48) sekä neljän opettajan yksilöhaastatteluilla. Opettajat käyttivät laajasti erilaisia arviointimenetelmiä, kuten kirjoitelmia ja esseitä, jatkuvaa arviointia, suljettuja kokeita sekä kuuntelu- ja sanakokeita. Opettajat kokivat eriyttävän arvioinnin haasteellisena, erityisesti ylöspäin eriyttämisen näkökulmasta. Vaikka arvioinnin eriyttäminen oli kokonaisuutena vähäistä, tuli tutkimuksessa kuitenkin esiin varsin monipuolinen kirjo erilaisia eriyttävän arvioinnin menetelmiä niin ennakoivaan, formatiiviseen kuin summatiiviseen arviointiin liittyen nonPeerReviewed

Analysis of the German Commuter Network Period 2013 -2021
2023
Understanding the behavior of commuters is crucial as the number of commuters steadily rises, causing significant traffic congestion in many cities. Indeed, commuter behavior is vital in city and transport planning and policy-making. Previous studies have investigated various factors that may impact commuting decisions. Still, these studies are often limited by the scale of data examined, including time duration, space, and the number of commuters. To address this gap, we gathered large-scale inter-city commuting data in Germany and analyzed the weighted commuting network from 2013 to 2021. This work relies on publicly available data so that the results can be reproduced.
Using language to help people, or using people to help language? A capabilities framework of language policy
2023
Language policy is a hugely diverse field, united only by the intent to influence language use in some way. Much early research in the field asserted that language policy had an emancipatory drive, to empower downtrodden minorities against the cruelty or indifference of majoritarian politics. But over the years, critical accounts have increasingly questioned who precisely benefits from promoting minoritized languages. Indeed, can the language itself, valorized as an emblem of heritage, sometimes become invested with its own separate value? Can that value even outweigh concerns over improving people's prospects and capabilities? In what follows, I compare that balance between people's capabi…

La protección de la vida y salud de los trabajadores, desde la perspectiva del Derecho del Trabajo, es quizás la principal obligación del empleador respecto de sus trabajadores, dando origen a un plexo normativo, tanto nacional como internacional, de la mayor relevancia. El trabajador, como consecuencia de la ejecución de su contrato de trabajo, se encuentra expuesto a sufrir accidentes laborales y/o enfermedades profesionales, muchas veces incapacitantes, y en no pocas veces, con consecuencias fatales que pueden afectar su calidad de vida a futuro y la de su familia. Por lo expuesto, se hace necesario analizar científicamente las distintas instituciones de prevención de riesgos laborales, …
Translation shifts from English to Romanian in literary and general informative texts
2023
This thesis asks the question of how English present and past participles are translated to Romanian in literary texts, as well as in general informative texts. Excerpts containing present and past participles are extracted from the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows book and Wikipedia texts and compared to their equivalents in Romanian. The theoretical background is based on J.C. Catford’s translation shifts classification. The most frequent changes are level shifts (a grammatical distinction in the source language is expressed by lexical means in the target language), class shifts (English participles are translated to different grammatical items - e.g., an English present participle ca…

Valor pronóstico de los parámetros de deformación miocárdica en una cohorte de pacientes con insuficiencia cardíaca crónica estable
2023
La insuficiencia cardiaca (IC) es una patología de gran impacto a nivel mundial por sus elevadas cifras de morbilidad-mortalidad. A pesar de que la ecocardiografía es la prueba de elección para su diagnóstico y estratificación de riesgo, presenta importantes limitaciones y es incapaz de predecir el riesgo en pacientes con FEVI preservada. El estudio de la deformación miocárdica mediante rastreo de patrones, permite estimar el porcentaje de elongación o acortamiento de cada segmento miocárdico durante el ciclo cardíaco. Ha demostrado ser un parámetro capaz de identificar la disfunción miocárdica subclínica, asociándose con el riesgo de mortalidad y episodios adversos en subgrupos seleccionad…
"Ist dort... ha, ha, ha, der... der 'Erfinder der deutschen Popliteratur?'" Continuidad y evolución de la Neue Deutsche Popliteratur en la obra de Jo…
2023
La Neue Deutsche Popliteratur ha estado asociada desde sus inicios a la Spaßgesellschaft. El consumismo, el ritmo desenfrenado y la constante búsqueda del placer y la diversión que recogían los textos desarrollados por los Popliteraten eran reflejo de una época en la que el fin último de la sociedad era el placer y la diversión individual, alejándose de la búsqueda del bienestar colectivo. Sin embargo, los terribles atentados cometidos el 11 de septiembre de 2001 en Nueva York supusieron el fin de la Spaßgesellschaft y, a ojos de la crítica especializada del momento, también el fin de una literatura estrechamente vinculada al contexto en que surgió. Esta tesis analiza la continuidad y evolu…

New Materialist Explorations into Language Education
2023
This open access book analyzes language education through a socio-material framework. The authors revisit their position as researchers by decentering themselves and humans in general from the main focus of research activities and giving way to the materialities that are agentive but often overlooked parts of our research contexts and processes. Through this critical posthumanist realism, they are able to engage in research that sees society as an ethical interrelationship between humans and the material world and explore the socio-materialities of language education from the perspectives of material agency, spatial and embodied materiality, and human and non-human assemblages. Each chapter…

The role of evanescent modes in Global-Local analysis of UGW in plates with varying local zone-scatterer relations
2023
In order to provide a reliable and robust SHM performance, Ultrasonic Guided Waves (UGWs) need to be analyzed and understood. Numerical modeling of UGW propagation and scattering by hybrid methods offers the possibility of simulating UGW interaction with waveguides of arbitrary cross-sections and discontinuities. Maximizing the accuracy of such methods is important to perform quantitative SHM, while maintaining minimum computational cost. This work investigates the role of evanescent modes in the numerical analysis of UGWs in aluminum and composite plates with defects, by the hybrid Global-Local method. The complex solutions to the UGW eigenvalue problem are found and the scattering spectra…

Las palabras y las cosas en el corral de comedias
2023
A modo de ensayo, se reivindica el valor fundacional de la palabra como escritura y como puesta en escena a través de una reflexión sobre la identidad y la dramaturgia del teatro clásico español. Sin abandonar una perspectiva histórica y documental, se propone un viaje en torno al espacio fundacional del teatro del Siglo de Oro –el corral de comedias– y su importancia como embrión de una concepción de la puesta en escena y de una primera industria cultural en un contexto de patente afinidad con el teatro europeo de la época. In the form of an essay, it vindicates the foundational value of the word as writing and staging through a reflection on the identity and dramaturgy of classical Spanis…

«Hvis du er i tvil, må du velge yrkesfag» Utdannings- og yrkesrådgiveres perspektiv på utdanningsvalg.
2023
Denne oppgaven undersøker utdanningsvalg ut ifra utdannings- og yrkesrådgiveres perspektiv i Kristiansand. Ulike faktorer og forhold er med på å påvirke ungdommenes utdanningsvalg på samfunnsmessig og individnivå, der elevene er omgitt av aktører som implisitt og eksplisitt påvirker dette valget. Oppgaven argumenterer for at utdannings- og yrkesrådgivere, blant annet er med på å påvirke dette valget. Rådgiveren har en tosidig rolle. De skal ivareta elevenes individuelle behov og ønsker, samtidig som de skal ta hensyn til samfunnets behov og krav. Lokalt i Kristiansand og nasjonalt, har det vært et økende fokus knyttet til yrkesfagene de siste årene. Dette skyldes et bredt spekter av yrkesfa…

Diminishing benefits of urban living for children and adolescents’ growth and development
2023
Optimal growth and development in childhood and adolescence is crucial for lifelong health and well-being1–6 . Here we used data from 2,325 population-based studies, with measurements of height and weight from 71 million participants, to report the height and body-mass index (BMI) of children and adolescents aged 5–19 years on the basis of rural and urban place of residence in 200 countries and territories from 1990 to 2020. In 1990, children and adolescents residing in cities were taller than their rural counterparts in all but a few high-income countries. By 2020, the urban height advantage became smaller in most countries, and in many high-income western countries it reversed into a smal…
