Solutions to replace quantity with quality in science.
2012
In their recent letter, Joern Fischer and others [1xAcademia's obsession with quantity. Fischer, J. et al. Trends Ecol. Evol. 2012; 27: 463–474See all References[1] tackled one of the major problems in modern science: the obsession with quantity. Perspicaciously, they showed how targeting for quantity has faded out creativity and reflection from science. Fischer and others ended their letter with the words: ‘Starting with our own university departments (but not stopping there), it is time to take stock of what we are doing. We must recreate spaces for reflection, personal relationships, and depth. More does not equal better.’ Utopian as it may be, we applaud this statement.Unfortunately, Fi…
Ce que Diderot a fait à Helvétius (1758 - 1773)
2011
Un lieu commun de l'histoire de la philosophie des Lumières veut que Diderot et Helvétius représentent deux voies incompatibles traversant les Lumières. La première voie, celle d'Helvétius, défendrait avant tout la thèse de l'égalité entre les esprits, et à cette fin serait contrainte de nier la dimension physiologique de la pensée humaine, potentiellement porteuse de différences innées, et peut-être indépassables. La seconde voie, celle de Diderot, attentive au contraire à la naissance des " sciences de la vie " et de la physiologie (celle de Haller), s'en remettrait aux progrès de ces dernières pour décider la question de l'égalité des esprits. Appelons cette thèse la thèse de l'organisat…
Early and Longitudinal Humoral Response to the SARS-CoV-2 mRNA BNT162b2 Vaccine in Healthcare Workers: Significance of BMI, Adipose Tissue and Muscle…
2022
Background: This study aimed to investigate the early and longitudinal humoral response in Healthcare Workers (HCWs) after two doses of the BNT162b2 vaccine and to assess the association between metabolic and anthropometric parameters and the humoral response after vaccination. Methods: The study included 243 fully vaccinated HCWs: 25.50% previously infected with SARS-CoV-2 (with prior history of COVID-19—PH) and 74.40%—uninfected, seronegative before the first vaccination (with no prior history of COVID-19—NPH). IgG antibodies were measured, and sera were collected: prior to the vaccination, 21 days after the first dose, and 14 days and 8 months after the second dose. Res…

2020
Šis pētniecības darbs bija vērsts uz esošās starptautiskās viesnīcu ķēdes personāla motivācijas sistēmas analīzi un novērtēšanu, lai izstrādātu pasākumus tās uzlabošanas turpināšanai Uzbekistānā, jo šī pētījuma pētījumu problēma ir nepietiekams personāla apmierinātības līmenis ar galveno darba motivāciju. Maģistra darba tēma ir Personāla motivācijas sistēma starptautiskajās viesnīcu ķēdēs Uzbekistānā; teorētiskā pirmā daļa satur personāla motivācijas sistēmas teorētiskos aspektus. Otrajā daļā aprakstīta starptautisko viesnīcu ķēžu pieredze darba procesā Uzbekistānā un to metode darbinieku motivācijas paaugstināšanai. Maģistra darba praktiskās daļas ietvaros autors analizējis ar pētījumiem s…
Leishmaniasis in travelers: A literature review.
2014
Leishmaniasis is a vector-borne protozoan infection whose clinical spectrum ranges from asymptomatic infection to fatal visceral leishmaniasis. Over the last decades, an increase in imported leishmaniasis cases in developed, non-endemic countries, have been pointed-out from a review of the international literature. Among the possible causes are increasing international tourism, influx of immigrants from endemic regions and military operations. The main area for the acquisition of cutaneous leishmaniasis, especially for adventure travelers on long-term trips in highly-endemic forested areas, is represented from South America, whereas popular Mediterranean destinations are emerging as the mai…

Mental health and psychosocial support strategies in highly contagious emerging disease outbreaks of substantial public concern: A systematic scoping…
2021
Background Acute disease outbreaks such as the COVID-19 pandemic cause a high burden of psychological distress in people worldwide. Interventions to enable people to better cope with such distress should be based on the best available evidence. We therefore performed a scoping review to systematically identify and summarize the available literature of interventions that target the distress of people in the face of highly contagious disease outbreaks. Methods MEDLINE, Cochrane CENTRAL, Web of Science (January 2000 to May 7, 2020), and reference lists were systematically searched and screened by two independent reviewers. Quantitative and qualitative studies investigating the effects of psyc…
Digitalisation of municipal healthcare collaboration with volunteers: a case study applying normalization process theory
2021
Abstract Background Increasing use of volunteers in healthcare requires structured collaboration between healthcare services and volunteers. The aim of this research was to explore critical issues and strategies in the implementation process of a digital solution for collaboration with and coordination of volunteers in municipal healthcare services. Methods Qualitative data collection was used to study implementation of a digital system for collaboration with volunteers in three Norwegian municipalities. Three rounds of interviews were conducted with healthcare employees from a volunteer centre and from municipality healthcare units in three municipalities: before implementation, and 6 and …
User-oriented evaluation of mechanical single-channel axial pipettes.
2013
Hand tools should be designed so that they are comfortable to use, fit the hand and are user-oriented. Six different manual, single-channel axial pipettes were evaluated for such objective outcomes as muscular activity, wrist postures and efficiency, as well as for subjective outcomes concerning self-assessed features of pipette usability and musculoskeletal strain. Ten experienced laboratory employees volunteered for the study. The results showed that light and short pipettes with better tool comfort resulted in reduced muscular activity and perceived musculoskeletal strain when they were compared with a long and heavy pipette. There were no differences in the efficiency between the differ…
Plenary conference: Keys to successful physical activity during childhood
2014
Introduction Based on different theories of dynamic systems, children's development occurs through interaction between their genes, their physical and socio-emotional environment, and the amount and quality of earlier experiences. The amount of physical activity (PA) has been recognized as one very important mediator in supporting young children's physical growth and overall development. Moreover, PA has been shown to effect children's daily well-being and health [1] . Children are physically active through their play. When children engage in physically active play, they use their whole body with all their senses and large muscles. Through playing children learn to feel their body, recogniz…
