Udzielenie ateiście sakramentu namaszczenia chorych a naruszenie jego dóbr osobistych oraz zakazu przetwarzania szczególnych kategorii danych
2021
Problemem analizowanym w niniejszym artykule jest fakt udzielenia ateiście sakra - mentu namaszczenia chorych w kontekście naruszenia jego dóbr osobistych oraz zakazu przetwarzania szczególnych kategorii danych. Podstawę rozważań stanowią wyroki Sądu Najwyższego z dnia 20 września 2013 r. (sygn. akt II CSK 1/13) oraz z dnia 12 września 2018 r. (sygn. akt II CSK 536/17), a także poprzedzające je wyroki Sądu Okręgowego i Sądu Apelacyjnego w Szczecinie. Celem artykułu jest udzielenie odpowiedzi na pytania: 1) Czy poddanie osoby nieprzytomnej praktyce przyjętej w religii, której nie wyznaje, godzi w jej wolność sumienia i wyznania, a tym samym czy takie działanie prowadzi do naruszenia jej dóbr…
Enterobacter cloacae administration induces hepatic damage and subcutaneous fat accumulation in high-fat diet fed mice.
2018
Accumulating evidence indicates that gut microbiota plays a significant role in obesity, insulin resistance and associated liver disorders. Family Enterobacteriaceae and especially Enterobacter cloacae strain B29 have been previously linked to obesity and hepatic damage. The underlying mechanisms, however, remain unclear. Therefore, we comprehensively examined the effects of E. cloacae subsp. cloacae (ATCC® 13047™) administration on host metabolism of mice fed with high-fat diet (HFD). C57BL/6N mice were randomly divided into HFD control, chow control, and E. cloacae treatment groups. The E. cloacae treatment group received live bacterial cells in PBS intragastrically twice a week, every ot…
Resistant ammonia-oxidizing archaea endure, but adapting ammonia-oxidizing bacteria thrive in boreal lake sediments receiving nutrient-rich effluents
2018
Climate change along with anthropogenic activities changes biogeochemical conditions in lake ecosystems, modifying the sediment microbial communities. Wastewater effluents introduce nutrients and organic material but also novel microbes to lake ecosystems, simulating forthcoming increases in catchment loadings. In this work, we first used 16s rRNA gene sequencing to study how the overall sediment microbial community responds to wastewater in six boreal lakes. To examine forthcoming changes in the lake biogeochemistry, we focused on the ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and bacteria (AOB), and examined their functional and compositional community response to wastewater. Although we found the l…
Does Intraspecific Variation in rDNA Copy Number Affect Analysis of Microbial Communities?
2021
Amplicon sequencing of partial regions of the ribosomal RNA loci (rDNA) is widely used to profile microbial communities. However, the rDNA is dynamic and can exhibit substantial interspecific and intraspecific variation in copy number in prokaryotes and, especially, in microbial eukaryotes. As change in rDNA copy number is a common response to environmental change, rDNA copy number is not necessarily a property of a species. Variation in rDNA copy number, especially the capacity for large intraspecific changes driven by external cues, complicates analyses of rDNA amplicon sequence data. We highlight the need to (i) interpret amplicon sequence data in light of possible interspecific and intr…
Gut microbiome and atrial fibrillation - results from a large population-based study
2023
Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is an important heart rhythm disorder in aging populations. The gut microbiome composition has been previously related to cardiovascular disease risk factors. Whether the gut microbial profile is also associated with the risk of AF remains unknown. Methods We examined the associations of prevalent and incident AF with gut microbiota in the FINRISK 2002 study, a random population sample of 6763 individuals. We replicated our findings in an independent case–control cohort of 138 individuals in Hamburg, Germany. Findings Multivariable-adjusted regression models revealed that prevalent AF (N = 116) was associated with nine microbial genera. Incident AF (N = 5…
Metodologiczne aspekty badań regionu śląskiego w okresie międzywojennym z socjologicznej perspektywy
2021
The paper demonstrates the methodologic aspect of the Polish sociologic research on the Silesian region in the interwar period. Referring to pre-sociologic and sociologic research, it depicts the methodologic foundations and intellectual perspectives that were conceptualised by ludwik krzy-wicki and constitute the cognitive basis for the construction of the knowledge about Silesia – they are defined as the object analysis current and the subject analysis current. The article illustrates the evolution of research methods – from the questionnaire technique, via the existing materials analy-sis, to Florian Znaniecki’s id method and the monographic method used in field research. it touches upon…
Suolistomikrobiston yhteys kardiometabolisten sairauksien riskitekijöihin ylipainoisilla tutkittavilla
2022
Tässä pro gradu -tutkielmassa selvitettiin suolistomikrobiston koostumuksen yhteyksiä kardiometabolisten sairauksien riskitekijöihin ylipainoisilla naisilla. Myös kuuden viikon kestävyysharjoittelun vaikutuksia tarkasteltiin tutkittavien suolistomikrobiston koostumukseen ja kardiometabolisiin riskitekijöihin. Lopuksi tarkasteltiin vielä muuttujien muutosten välisiä yhteyksiä. Tässä työssä on käytetty Munukan ym. (2018) tutkimuksen aineistoa. Tutkimukseen osallistui 15 ylipainoista keskimäärin 36,8-vuotiasta naista, jotka olivat sedentaarisia ja BMI oli yli 27,5 (kg/m²). Mittaukset suoritettiin perustasolla sekä kontrollijakson ja harjoitusjakson jälkeen. Mittaukset sisälsivät laboratoriotes…
Suoliston mikrobit ja fyysinen suorituskyky
2021
Suolistoamme asuttava miljardilukuinen mikrobiyhteisö osallistuu fysiologiaamme monin tavoin. Se kykenee esimerkiksi hajottamaan ravinnosta yhdisteitä, joihin omat entsyymimme eivät pure. Poikittaistutkimuksissa on löydetty ihmisen fyysisen suorituskyvyn ja suolistomikrobien välisiä yhteyksiä. Liikunta-aktiivisuus näyttäisi lisäävän tiettyjen terveysvaikutteisten suolistomikrobien määrää. Pitkittäistutkimuksista tekemämme systemoitu katsaus osoittaa, että liikunta vaikuttaa ihmisten suolistomikrobeihin, mutta tulokset ovat ristiriitaisia. Yleisimmin keskikuormittava kestävyysliikunta on aiheuttanut eniten muutoksia suolistossa, mutta tähänastinen tutkimus on painottunut iäkkäisiin, ylipaino…
In-depth characterization of denitrifier communities across different soil ecosystems in the tundra
2022
Abstract Background In contrast to earlier assumptions, there is now mounting evidence for the role of tundra soils as important sources of the greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O). However, the microorganisms involved in the cycling of N2O in this system remain largely uncharacterized. Since tundra soils are variable sources and sinks of N2O, we aimed at investigating differences in community structure across different soil ecosystems in the tundra. Results We analysed 1.4 Tb of metagenomic data from soils in northern Finland covering a range of ecosystems from dry upland soils to water-logged fens and obtained 796 manually binned and curated metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs). We then sear…
Complex plant quality—microbiota–population interactions modulate the response of a specialist herbivore to the defence of its host plant
2022
Many specialist herbivores have evolved strategies to cope with plant defences, with gut microbiota potentially participating to such adaptations. In this study, we assessed whether the history of plant use (population origin) and microbiota may interact with plant defence adaptation. We tested whether microbiota enhance the performance of Melitaea cinxia larvae on their host plant, Plantago lanceolata and increase their ability to cope the defensive compounds, iridoid glycosides (IGs). The gut microbiota were significantly affected by both larval population origin and host plant IG level. Contrary to our prediction, impoverishing the microbiota with antibiotic treatment did not reduce larv…
