Toward modernizing the systematic review pipeline in genetics: efficient updating via data mining
2012
Purpose: The aim of this study was to demonstrate that modern data mining tools can be used as one step in reducing the labor necessary to produce and maintain systematic reviews. Methods: We used four continuously updated, manually curated resources that summarize MEDLINE-indexed articles in entire fields using systematic review methods (PDGene, AlzGene, and SzGene for genetic determinants of Parkinson disease, Alzheimer disease, and schizophrenia, respectively; and the Tufts Cost-Effectiveness Analysis (CEA) Registry for cost-effectiveness analyses). In each data set, we trained a classification model on citations screened up until 2009. We then evaluated the ability of the model to class…
Filipinas en el marco del imperio español en el siglo XIX
2019
[EN] En este artículo se analiza la evolución de Filipinas en las últimas décadas del siglo XVIII y en el transcurso del siglo XIX a través de diferentes epígrafes: la obligada transformación del secular modelo colonial volcado hacia el tráfico del Galeón y las relaciones transpacíficas; la renovada inclinación hacia Asia, el océano Índico y el mar de China; el desarrollo de un sistema económico basado en la exportación de productos filipinos y en la apertura de las islas al exterior; la evolución de la vida política; el camino hacia la modernización; el peso de las órdenes religiosas, la importancia de la población china y la colaboración con élites indígenas como rasgos singulares de Fili…
El impacto del cambio climático en la movilidad humana : las migraciones climáticas en el contexto internacional y europeo
2021
For decades, the migration phenomenon has been one of the thorniest regulatory issues in the European Union (EU) policy. In addition, today, the fight against climate change in all regions of the world makes the situation worse for the new ?climate refugees? or ?environmental displaced people?, whose legal status is not yet covered by the ancient 1951 Refugee Convention.
"Zagadnienie zła u Słowackiego" Anny Dziembowskiej. Przyczynek do eksplikacji okrucieństwa w "Królu-Duchu"
2017
Obsesja rozkładu ciała, niszczenia materii, życia przejawiającego się w obrazach gnicia, trupów, robactwa, brutalnych mordów i zbrodni, będących wynikiem istniejącego w świecie zła, należą do wyobraźni i stylistycznej ekspresji wielu utworów Słowackiego. Po transfiguracji poety owe okropności destrukcji materii nie znikają z jego utworów, przeciwnie, zostają jakby zwielokrotnione, spotęgowane. Pochód Królów-Duchów poprzez dzieje ukazany został jako bolesny, naznaczony cierpieniem. Stąd tyle tu okropności, brzydoty, śmierci – zła. Jak wyjaśnia jego istnienie w świecie Słowacki? Pisano o tym wielokrotnie, podejmując próbę eksplikacji systemu genezyjskiego poety, choć, jak się wydaje, nigdy ni…
Anna Dziembowska: "Zagadnienie zła u Słowackiego". Przyczynek do eksplikacji okrucieństwa w "Królu-Duchu"
2020
The obsession with bodily decomposition, the destruction of matter, life manifested in the images of rotting, dead bodies, vermin, brutal murders and crimes, resulting from the existence in the world of evil, are within the imagination and stylistic expression of many of Slowacki’s works. After the transfiguration of the poet these horrors of the destruction of matter do not disappear from his works, on the contrary, they are multiplied, compounded. The procession of the Kings- Spirits through history is shown here as painful, marked by suffering. Hence there are so many horrors here, ugliness, death - evil. How do we explain its existence in the world of Słowacki? It has been written about…
Upper thermal threshold of Lepidurus arcticus (Branchiopoda, Notostraca) in lakes on the southern outreach of its distribution range
2021
Qvenild T, Fjeld E, Fjellheim A, Hammar J, Hesthagen T and Lakka H-K. 2021. Upper thermal threshold of Lepidurus arcticus (Branchiopoda, Notostraca) in lakes on the southern outreach of its distribution range. Fauna norvegica 41: 50–88. The Arctic tadpole shrimp Lepidurus arcticus has a circumpolar distribution and the Scandes (Fennoscandian Mountains) marks its southernmost limit in Europe. Within this area, 391 natural and 88 regulated lakes with L. arcticus have been identified, of which 87% are above the treeline. The lakes hosting L. arcticus decrease in altitude from south to north, which results from its temperature preferences. The majority of the locations are at a lower lake air t…
Data from: Parasitic wasp-associated symbiont affects plant-mediated species interactions between herbivores
2018
Microbial mutualistic symbiosis is increasingly recognised as a hidden driving force in the ecology of plant–insect interactions. Although plant‐associated and herbivore‐associated symbionts clearly affect interactions between plants and herbivores, the effects of symbionts associated with higher trophic levels has been largely overlooked. At the third‐trophic level, parasitic wasps are a common group of insects that can inject symbiotic viruses (polydnaviruses) and venom into their herbivorous hosts to support parasitoid offspring development. Here, we show that such third‐trophic level symbionts act in combination with venom to affect plant‐mediated interactions by reducing colonisation o…
Benthic foodweb structure in a large shallow lake studied by stable isotope analysis
2014
The benthic foodweb structure of Lake Võrtsjärv, a large (270 km2), shallow, and turbid Estonian lake, was evaluated based on C and N stable-isotope signatures (δ13C, δ15N). Variation in δ13C between sampling sites was not related to site proximity to the littoral zone or the more vegetated southern part of the lake, but rather appeared to be influenced by in-situ site peculiarities. δ13C was stable temporally and between functional feeding groups, a result implying that the whole benthic food web of the lake relies largely on the same C source admixture, essentially particulate organic matter (POM). Thus, the foodweb composition of Lake Võrtsjärv is remarkably homogeneous given the lake’s …
The Aqua-Planet Experiment (APE): CONTROL SST Simulation
2013
Climate simulations by 16 atmospheric general circulation models (AGCMs) are compared on an aqua-planet, a water-covered Earth with prescribed sea surface temperature varying only in latitude. The idealised configuration is designed to expose differences in the circulation simulated by different models. Basic features of the aqua-planet climate are characterised by comparison with Earth. The models display a wide range of behaviour. The balanced component of the tropospheric mean flow, and mid-latitude eddy covariances subject to budget constraints, vary relatively little among the models. In contrast, differences in damping in the dynamical core strongly influence transient eddy amplitudes…
Alternative measures of body composition and wage premium: New evidence from Indonesia
2019
This paper examines the relationship between body composition and earnings in a developing country setting. We use body mass index, waist circumference and hip circumference. Exploiting the panel structure of our longitudinal survey, we find that along with BMI, waist circumference is related to higher earnings in Indonesia. peerReviewed
