Acupuncture in the treatment of temporomandibular disorders, facial pain, and postural neuromuscular disorders. Presentation of a clinical case
2021
Abstract Background and objectives Temporomandibular disorders have a multifactorial etiology and involve the masticatory muscles, temporomandibular joint and associated structures. Therefore, different treatments are proposed and used. The aim of this paper is the use of acupuncture to treat temporomandibular disorders and associated symptoms. This article presents a clinical case study of a 39-year-old patient who presented temporomandibular disorders and headache of muscular origin. Results After 10 acupuncture sessions, the results were highly satisfactory, with complete relief of headache pain and absence of joint disorders. These results suggest the efficacy of acupuncture in the symp…

“Who’s Afraid of the Dark?”: The Ironic Self-Stereotype of the Ethnic Other in Finnish Rap Music
2017
Drawing on recent sociolinguistic work on globalization and superdiversity, this chapter explores the multisemiotic and ironic construction of the self-stereotype of the ethnic Other in a Finnish rap music video. Because Finland and Finnish hip-hop are still ethnically relatively homogeneous, people of migrant background, such as rap artist Musta Barbaari (Black Barbarian), need to negotiate their belonging in various ways. In the video, he deliberately constructs himself as the ethnicized and sexualized Other to highlight prejudice, discrimination and racism. In doing this, he voices societal critique and dissatisfaction – and speaks for multiculturalism and tolerance in (super)diversifyin…
Recaída locorregional en mujeres con cáncer de mama portadoras de mutación BRCA tratadas mediante cirugía conservadora
2015
El cáncer de mama (CM) representa la quinta causa de muerte por cáncer en todo el mundo y la segunda en los países desarrollados. El conocimiento de los factores de riesgo que predisponen a padecerlo permite poder desarrollar una prevención primaria y secundaria adecuada, con el fin de disminuir la incidencia de CM en el primer caso y realizar un diagnóstico precoz en el segundo. Entre un 5-10% de los casos de CM presentan una causa hereditaria asociándose a mutaciones principalmente en los genes BRCA1 y BRCA2 ocasionando el conocido Síndrome de CM y cáncer de Ovario (CO) Hereditario. Las personas portadoras de estas alteraciones presentan un alto riesgo de padecer CM , que oscila entre el …

El presente texto confirma que el monumento funerario encargado en 1609 por Juan Alfonso Pimentel, conde-duque de Benavente a los genoveses Giuseppe Carlone y Oberto Casella fue para la sepultura del fraile Domingo Anadón en el convento de Santo Domingo de Valencia. Se analizan las vicisitudes de este sepulcro junto al de fray Juan Micó en la capilla de San Luis Beltrán del convento, en el marco de la llegada de piezas genovesas a España en época Moderna.AbstractThis text confirms that the funerary monument commissioned in 1609 by Juan Alfonso Pimentel, count-duke of Benavente to the genoese sculptors Giuseppe Carlone and Oberto Casella was for friar Domingo Anadon in the dominican convent …
Perhe 1941-1944 pula-ajan mainoksissa
2015
Tiivistelmä – Abstract Tässä tutkielmassa tarkoituksena on tarkastella perheen kuvaamista pula ja sota-ajan mainoksissa. Ihmisiä kuvataan mainoksissa paljon ja samalla ne heijastavat oman kulttuurinsa ihanteita. Työn tarkoituksena onkin selvittää millainen oli 1941–1944 lukujen ihanteellinen perhe eli millainen perhe oli tavoittelemisen arvoinen. Jatkosota ja jo sitä edeltänyt pula-aika muuttivat suomalaisia perheitä suuresti. Sodan keskellä ihmisiltä vaadittiin aivan erilaisia ponnisteluita ja arkirutiineita kuin rauhan aikana. Miesten ollessa sotilaina rintamalla jäi kotirintaman tehtävän naisten tehtäviksi. Tämä jo itsessään muutti perheen rakennetta ja sen erijäsenten tehtäviä. Aikaisem…
Supramolecular Modification of ABC Triblock Terpolymers in Confinement Assembly
2018
The self-assembly of AB diblock copolymers in three-dimensional (3D) soft confinement of nanoemulsions has recently become an attractive bottom up route to prepare colloids with controlled inner morphologies. In that regard, ABC triblock terpolymers show a more complex morphological behavior and could thus give access to extensive libraries of multicompartment microparticles. However, knowledge about their self-assembly in confinement is very limited thus far. Here, we investigated the confinement assembly of polystyrene-block-poly(4-vinylpyridine)-block-poly(tert-butyl methacrylate) (PS-b-P4VP-b-PT or SVT) triblock terpolymers in nanoemulsion droplets. Depending on the block weight fractio…
Understanding "Islandness"
2023
Islandness is a contested concept, not just between disciplines but also cultures, entangled with what islands, island studies, and island identity are understood to be. The purpose of this article is to explore some of these different meanings, without necessarily unifying or reconciling them, with the aim of keeping multiple understandings of islandness in creative tension. We begin by considering islandness as smallness, recognizing that though many entry points into island studies relate to size in some way, what constitutes small is dependent on both context and worldview. Next, we consider islandness as culture, and the concept of island identity, which is expressed in varied forms. F…
Postmetafyysisen ajattelun musta kirja
2015
Martin Heideggerin hiljattain ilmestyneiden ajattelupäiväkirjojen, niin sanottujen mustien vihkojen, neljä ensimmäistä nidettä vuosilta 1931–1948 valottavat uudella tavalla hänen ”olemishistoriallista” tulkintaansa kansallissosialismista, totalitarismista ja toisesta maailmansodasta modernin aikakauden huipentumina. Juuri ajankohtaisten ilmiöiden analysointi tekee muistiinpanoista ainutlaatuisen osan Heideggerin tuotantoa. Antisemitistisesti latautuneet näkemykset ”maailmanjuutalaisuudesta” yhtenä äärimodernin ilmenemismuodoista avaavat kuitenkin uuden, ristiriitaisen ja synkeän näkökulman filosofin ajatusmaailmaan. nonPeerReviewed
