Maahanmuuttajamiesten tekemän seksuaalisen väkivallan konstruoiminen sosiaaliseksi ongelmaksi vuoden 2015 internetkeskusteluissa
2017
Tässä pro gradu -tutkielmassa selvitetään, miten maahanmuuttajamiehistä puhutaan seksuaalisen väkivallan tekijöinä internetkeskusteluissa vuonna 2015. Tarkastelun kohteena ovat selonteot, joilla tekoja selitetään, ongelmapuhe ja uhkakuvat, joita keskusteluissa nousee sekä ratkaisuehdotukset, joita tähän sosiaaliseen ongelmaan esitetään. Tutkimuksessamme tarkastelun kohteena ovat myös vasta-argumentit, joilla maahanmuuttajien tekemää seksuaalista väkivaltaa ja siitä tuotettua ongelmaa kiistetään. Tutkimuksen aineisto muodostuu Helsingin Sanomien ja Turun Sanomien digilehtien artikkeleihin kirjoitetuista lukijakommenteista sekä Suomi24-foorumin sekä Kaksplus-lehden internetfoorumin keskustelu…
Estudio cualitativo sobre las barreras y los factores facilitadores en la demanda de los Servicios Profesionales Farmacéuticos Asistenciales en las f…
2023
INTRODUCCIÓN Según estudios recientes, los Servicios Profesionales Farmacéuticos Asistenciales (SPFA) demostraron sus beneficios en la calidad de vida de pacientes y sistemas de salud. Los SPFA son actividades sanitarias prestadas desde la farmacia comunitaria (FC), para la prevención de enfermedades y la mejora de la salud mediante la optimización del uso y del resultado de los tratamientos. Sin embargo, en España existe un bajo porcentaje de farmacias comunitarias que ofrecen SPFA, a excepción de la dispensación, indicación farmacéutica, medida de parámetros clínicos, la educación/ información sanitaria y la formulación magistral ya arraigados en la profesión desde hace tiempo. OBJETIVO A…
Sex Differences in the Physiological Network of Healthy Young Subjects
2021
Within human physiology, systemic interactions couple physiological variables to maintain homeostasis. These interactions change according to health status and are modified by factors such as age and sex. For several physiological processes, sex-based distinctions in normal physiology are present and defined in isolation. However, new methodologies are indispensable to analyze system-wide properties and interactions with the objective of exploring differences between sexes. Here we propose a new method to construct complex inferential networks from a normalization using the clinical criteria for health of physiological variables, and the correlations between anthropometric and blood tests b…
Effects of ectopic expression of NGAL on doxorubicin sensitivity.
2012
Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL, a.k.a Lnc2) is a member of the lipocalin family which has diverse roles including stabilizing matrix metalloproteinase-9 from auto-degradation and as siderocalins which are important in the transport of iron. NGAL also has important biological functions involved in immunity and inflammation as well as responses to kidney damage. NGAL expression has also been associated with certain neoplasia and is important in the metastasis of breast cancer. Many advanced cancer patients have elevated levels of NGAL in their urine and it has been proposed that NGAL may be a prognostic indicator for certain cancers (e.g. breast, brain, and others). NGAL exp…
Localized surface plasmon resonance in silver nanoparticles: Atomistic first-principles time-dependent density-functional theory calculations
2015
We observe using ab initio methods that localized surface plasmon resonances in icosahedral silver nanoparticles enter the asymptotic region already between diameters of 1 and 2 nm, converging close to the classical quasistatic limit around 3.4 eV. We base the observation on time-dependent density-functional theory simulations of the icosahedral silver clusters Ag$_{55}$ (1.06 nm), Ag$_{147}$ (1.60 nm), Ag$_{309}$ (2.14 nm), and Ag$_{561}$ (2.68 nm). The simulation method combines the adiabatic GLLB-SC exchange-correlation functional with real time propagation in an atomic orbital basis set using the projector-augmented wave method. The method has been implemented for the electron structure…
Efectos de un programa de intervención psicoeducativa en la calidad de vida de los/las pacientes durante sus tratamientos de Reproducción Asistida
2021
El término Infertilidad Humana se refiere a la no consecución del embarazo después de 12 meses de mantener relaciones sexuales sin el uso de métodos anticonceptivos. Ha sido reconocido por la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) como un problema de salud pública a nivel global, y aunque existe un alto número de personas con infertilidad, aproximadamente tan sólo la mitad de estas personas buscan tratamientos médicos para lograr concebir. Las personas que se someten a Tratamientos de Reproducción Asistida (TRA) pasan por una serie de etapas en las que sufren distintos tipos de cambios, tanto en su estado físico como emocional. La literatura muestra que durante los tratamientos las mujeres …
Nostalgia, community and resistance : Counter-cultural politics in a Finnish skinzine
2019
Culture and community building are an essential part of the appeal of the far-right and fascist movements. Studying their cultural products is therefore important for a deeper understanding of the movement and their modus operandi. One elemental part of their culture are the so-called zines, small-scale do-it-yourself magazines intended for scene members. In certain respects, the far-right zines, skinzines, follow the forms and trends of other underground publications, especially punk-zines, with which they also share the resistance identity as stigmatized and marginalized actors. However, the political visions in skinzines are more or less opposite to ‘democratic zines’, creating certain t…
Sleep Disturbances in COPD are Associated with Heterogeneity of Airway Obstruction
2018
Individuals with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) experience sleep disturbances due to the impact of respiratory symptoms on sleep quality. We explored whether sleep disturbances in COPD are linked to heterogeneity of airway constriction.The impact of breathing problems on sleep quality was measured in consecutive COPD outpatients with the COPD and Asthma Sleep Impact Scale (CASIS) questionnaire. Impulse oscillometry technique (IOS) was employed to assess heterogeneity of airway constriction. Subjects with a previous or concomitant diagnosis of asthma or obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) were excluded.Fifty COPD subjects (M/F 40/10; age: 71 +/- 8 yrs, Body Mass Index (BMI): 26.2 +/-…
One-loop corrections to light cone wave functions: the dipole picture DIS cross section
2018
We develop methods needed to perform loop calculations in light cone perturbation theory using a helicity basis, refining the method introduced in our earlier work. In particular this includes implementing a consistent way to contract the four-dimensional tensor structures from the helicity vectors with d-dimensional tensors arising from loop integrals, in a way that can be fully automatized. We demonstrate this explicitly by calculating the one-loop correction to the virtual photon to quark-antiquark dipole light cone wave function. This allows us to calculate the deep inelastic scattering cross section in the dipole formalism to next-to-leading order accuracy. Our results, obtained using …
Omosessualità ed esclusione sociale nella donazione di sangue: divieti permanenti e divieti temporanei come fattore di discriminazione
2016
Around the world, as a consequence of the contamination of the blood supply by HIV and Hepatitis C and B in the early 1980s, public and private blood banks have required blood donors to complete a donor health assessment questionnaire to identify various risk factors for sexually transmitted diseases including, for men, the act of having sex with a male partner. In this latter case the policy provides for a permanent or temporary ban on donation. This deferral policy, which aimed to protect recipients of blood and blood products, in recent years has been subject to criticism in so far as this exclusion seems to be an unfair discrimination against gay men on the basis of sexual orientation. …
