On pragmemes again: dealing with death
2010
Combined effect of sauna bathing and cardiorespiratory fitness on the risk of sudden cardiac deaths in Caucasian men : a long-term prospective cohort…
2018
Both cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and frequency of sauna bathing (FSB) are each strongly and independently associated with sudden cardiac death (SCD) risk. However, the combined effect of CRF and FSB on SCD risk has not been previously investigated. We evaluated the joint impact of CRF and FSB on the risk of SCD in the Kuopio Ischemic Heart Disease prospective cohort study of 2291 men aged 42–61 years at recruitment. Objectively measured CRF and self-reported sauna bathing habits were assessed at baseline. CRF was categorized as low and high (median cutoffs) and FSB as low and high (defined as ≤2 and 3–7 sessions/week respectively). Multivariable adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) with confide…
Psilocybin as an inducer of ego death and similar experiences of religious provenance
2016
The purpose of this chapter is to provide an overview of the impact of hallucinogenic psilocybin on religious-type emotionality related to ego disintegration. Psilocybin as a typical hallucinogen evokes alternations of visual perception (enhances a development of pseudo-hallucinations, phantom visual perception, or hypnagogic experiences). These visual phenomena may be inspiring and are claimed to enhance aesthetic appreciation. Additionally the hallucinogen induces transient impairment of cognitive functions and psychological regression comparable to the signs of ego blurring and dissociative phenomena. The psilocybin effects, initially euphoric, may become emotionally perceived as anxious…

Datortomogrāfijas protokola pielietošana smadzeņu nāves apstiprināšanai
2020
Bakalaura darba tēma ir “Datortomogrāfijas protokola pielietošana smadzeņu nāves apstiprināšanā”. Attīstoties intensīvās terapijas un transplantoloģijas nozarēm, smadzeņu nāves diagnostikā nepieciešams papildus veikt izmeklējumus, kas nodrošina ātru un efektīvu rezultātu, veicot apstiprinājumu smadzeņu nāves diagnozei. Datortomogrāfijas angiogrāfija ir viens no tiem. Bakalaura darba izvirzītā hipotēze ir: datortomogrāfijas protokols smadzeņu nāves apstiprināšanai katrā slimnīcā ir atšķirīgs. Darba mērķis ir noskaidrot datortomogrāfijas protokola pielietošanu smadzeņu nāves apstiprināšanai 3 Latvijas slimnīcās. Pētniecības uzdevumi ir apkopot un analizēt literatūru par galvas smadzeņu anatom…
Potential combined effects of maternal smoking and coffee intake on foetal death within the Danish National Birth Cohort
2018
Background: Several studies have linked coffee intake and smoking to foetal death, but a possible interaction between both exposures remains unknown.Methods: We studied, within the Danish National Birth Cohort, the potential interaction between smoking and coffee drinking while pregnant on the risk of foetal (early and late) death. The study included 90 086 pregnant women, with information about their smoking habit and coffee intake in early pregnancy, and several potential confounding factors. Interaction was studied by calculating both the hazard ratio (HR) in Cox's regression (linear and smoothed restricted cubic spline) and the interaction contrast ratio (ICR).Results: Women who neither…
The hypothetical ancestral animal the Urmetazoa: Telomerase activity in sponges [Porifera]
2003
Sponges (Porifera) represent the lowest metazoan phylum, characterized by a pronounced plasticity in the determination of cell lineages, and they are the closest related taxon to the hypothetical ancestral animal, the Urmetazoa, from which the metazoan lineages diverged. In a first approach to elucidate the molecular mechanisms controlling the switch from the cell lineage with a putative indefinite growth capacity to senescent, somatic cells, the activity of the telomerase as an indicator for immortality has been determined. The studies were performed with the marine demosponges Suberites domuncula and Geodia cydonium, in vivo with tissue but also in vitro using the primmorph system. Primmo…
Aplicación de la clasificación de San Diego en el estudio médico-legal de la Muerte Súbita del Lactante
2020
INTRODUCCIÓN La Muerte Súbita del Lactante (MSL) representa un problema universal y grave. El Síndrome de Muerte Súbita del Lactante (SMSL) es la primera causa de muerte en lactantes durante el primer año de vida en países desarrollados y se define como la muerte súbita e inesperada de un lactante, que ocurre durante el sueño y permanece inexplicada tras la realización de una completa investigación postmortem (autopsia con análisis complementarios, examen del lugar de la muerte y revisión de la historia clínica). De esta definición se desprende la clasificación de San Diego basada en las categorías IA, IB y II. Tiene una patogénesis compleja y heterogénea, siendo la teoría del triple riesgo…
