Barnet som aktør og kunnskapsbærer – en utfordring for barnevernets profesjonelle ekspertise
2010
Author's version of an article published in the journal: Norges Barnevern. Also available from the publisher at: http://www.idunn.no/ts/tnb/2010/03/art04 During recent years, it has become more and more common to consider children as competent participants in their own lives, also in the child protective services. This agrees with the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and more recent research on children and childhood. That is to say that the child is seen as the expert on his own life, at the same time as the child protective services with their professional expertise have competence to say what is best for children. What does this imply and how can we understand the relation betwee…
Kandyan forest gardens(KFG's) for sustainable development
2013
Master thesis in development management – University of Agder 2013 The Kandyan Forest Gardens (KFGs) Has been a basis for not only the stable agricultural livelihood of the community living in Tropical hills of Sri Lanka but also for the maintenance of biodiversity and equilibrium of the environment in these regions for an excitedly long period. Over the last several decades various social, economic and political changes have been brought about in these KFGG. The direct cause behind the above modifications was the forest conservation and management policies implemented in the area in question. These policies were put into effect with a view to keeping the peripheral community away from the …

Informācijas sistēmu pilnveidošana uzņēmumā "CEMEX"
2017
Diplomdarba tēma ir „Informācijas sistēmu pilnveidošana uzņēmumā “CEMEX””. Diplomdarba mērķis ir uzņēmumam „CEMEX” izstrādāt mobilo e-apmācību lietotni, kas paredzēta uzņēmuma loģistikas daļai. Diplomdarba teorētiskajā daļā pētīti un analizēti teorētiskie aspekti, kas saistīti ar informācijas sistēmām: jēdziena skaidrojums, vēsture, pamatuzdevumi. Analītiskajā daļā pētītas un raksturotas uzņēmumā izmantotās informācijas sistēmas. Projekta daļā programmā „Articulate360” uzkonstruēta mobilā e-apmācību lietotne, lai modernizētu drošības instruktāžas apmācību procesu un atvieglotu drošības inženiera darbu. Darba rezultātā iegūts priekšstats par ražošanas uzņēmumā izmantotām informācijas sistēmā…
Estereotipos corporales en las imágenes de los libros de texto de inglés
2017
La educación es el camino para generar conductas positivas en niños y niñas y promover un ambiente social y armónico, así como respeto de los valores éticos y democráticos de nuestra sociedad. Un valor ético y democrático importante es la actitud no discriminante, sin prejuicios y no estereotipada. El objetivo del presente estudio fue analizar la frecuencia de ocurrencia de posibles estereotipos ligados a género, edad, raza y somatotipo presentes en las imágenes de los libros de texto de inglés del tercer ciclo de Primaria del sistema educativo español. Para ello, se ha realizado un estudio descriptivo con 1774 imágenes de 5 colecciones de libros de texto de la asignatura de inglés (Bugs Wo…
VEGF-targeted therapy stably modulates the glycolytic phenotype of tumor cells
2014
Abstract Anti-VEGF therapy perturbs tumor metabolism, severely impairing oxygen, glucose, and ATP levels. In this study, we investigated the effects of anti-VEGF therapy in multiple experimental tumor models that differ in their glycolytic phenotypes to gain insights into optimal modulation of the metabolic features of this therapy. Prolonged treatments induced vascular regression and necrosis in tumor xenograft models, with highly glycolytic tumors becoming treatment resistant more rapidly than poorly glycolytic tumors. By PET imaging, prolonged treatments yielded an increase in both hypoxic and proliferative regions of tumors. A selection for highly glycolytic cells was noted and this met…
Automorphisms and abstract commensurators of 2-dimensional Artin groups
2004
In this paper we consider the class of 2-dimensional Artin groups with connected, large type, triangle-free defining graphs (type CLTTF). We classify these groups up to isomorphism, and describe a generating set for the automorphism group of each such Artin group. In the case where the defining graph has no separating edge or vertex we show that the Artin group is not abstractly commensurable to any other CLTTF Artin group. If, moreover, the defining graph satisfies a further `vertex rigidity' condition, then the abstract commensurator group of the Artin group is isomorphic to its automorphism group and generated by inner automorphisms, graph automorphisms (induced from automorphisms of the…
Hierarchical imaging and computational analysis of three-dimensional vascular network architecture in the entire postnatal and adult mouse brain
2021
The formation of new blood vessels and the establishment of vascular networks are crucial during brain development, in the adult healthy brain, as well as in various diseases of the central nervous system. Here, we describe a step-by-step protocol for our recently developed method that enables hierarchical imaging and computational analysis of vascular networks in postnatal and adult mouse brains. The different stages of the procedure include resin-based vascular corrosion casting, scanning electron microscopy, synchrotron radiation and desktop microcomputed tomography imaging, and computational network analysis. Combining these methods enables detailed visualization and quantification of t…
Identification and evaluation of antimicrobial resistance of enterococci isolated from raw ewes’ and cows’ milk collected in western Sicily: a prelim…
2019
The present work was carried out to investigate the Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) of enterococci isolated from raw ewes’ and cows’ milk. The samples were collected from eighteen semi-extensive dairy sheep and cow farms throughout western Sicily. Plate counts, carried out on Rapid Enterococcus Agar commonly used to detect food enterococci, revealed a maximal enterococcal concentration of approximately 4.58 Log Colony Forming Unit (CFU)/mL. Colonies were isolated and differentiated based on genetic analysis by Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD)-PCR. Thirty-eight different strains were identified. Analysis by a species-specific multiplex PCR assay grouped the strains into three Enteroc…
