Conceptualising Violence in Close Relationships : Discrepancies Between Police Conceptions and the Letter of the Law in Finland
2020
AbstractThe focus in this Finland-based study is on violence in close relationships—a term that partly overlaps with the more commonly used ‘domestic violence’, ‘family violence’ and ‘intimate partner violence’. We demonstrate how police officers’ conceptualisations of such violence differ from how it is defined in relevant legal documents. The data consists of the Government Bill and legal text on the subject issued as part of a legal reform enacted in 2010, and of a qualitative sample of freelist responses from 79 police officers. We examined both sets of data using theory-driven directed content analysis and deriving from prevailing theoretical frameworks reflecting the family- and gende…
Legitimacy and relevance of a performance measurement system in a Finnish public-sector case
2019
Purpose This study investigates the difficulties involved in translating stakeholder expectations into action and maintaining legitimacy through the use of a performance measurement system (PMS) created in a Finnish regional development company (RDC). This longitudinal case study illustrates the fluctuating and socially constructed nature of legitimacy in the public sector. Design/methodology/approach This qualitative case study longitudinally analyzes the various developments occurring during and after the development of a PMS system for the case organization. Empirical data include interviews, workshops, observation and other materials relating to the case organization. Findings The init…
Lesiones bucales en un grupo de pacientes con trasplante renal
2005
Objetivo: Determinar la prevalencia de lesiones de la mucosa bucal (LB) en un grupo de pacientes con trasplante renal (TR), y analizar las posibles asociaciones de las lesiones entre sí, con el uso de fármacos y con variables clínicas y de laboratorio relevantes. Metodología. Estudio transversal, en el que se examinó a pacientes consecutivos con TR de la consulta de nefrología de un hospital General de Zona del Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social. Se determinó la frecuencia y el tipo de lesiones bucales. Se analizaron las posibles asociaciones de las LB entre sí y con la cuenta de leucocitos totales, la función renal, el índice de higiene oral simplificado (IHO-S), los niveles de ciclospor…
La Leucemia Linfática Crónica: evolución clonal y su monitorización molecular
2023
La estratificación pronóstica de los pacientes con Leucemia Linfática Crónica (LLC) se basa en el índice pronóstico LLC-IPI, que integra marcadores clínicos, citogenéticos y biológicos, como el estudio de la región variable del gen de la cadena pesada de las inmunoglobulinas (IGVH) y del gen TP53. La secuenciación de nueva generación (NGS), ha permitido identificar las alteraciones genéticas asociadas con el desarrollo, progresión y resistencia a los tratamientos convencionales, y desarrollar nuevas herramientas pronósticas, y novedosas terapias dirigidas. Con la inmunoquimioterapia (IQT), la evolución clonal después de la terapia es la regla, mientras que con Ibrutinib, es la adaptación de…
Genetic diversity of a clonal earthworm : gene expression variation and impacts on decomposition in metal contaminated soil
2016
Biodiversity affects ecosystem functioning positively. Metal-contamination diminishes species diversity and ecosystem function depends on the remaining species, and the genotypes within them. I studied how the clonally reproducing earthworm Dendrobaena octaedra responds to soil metal contamination and how its genetic diversity affects decomposition. Expression of the gene for the metal tolerance protein metallothionein was compared between populations with or without metal exposure history: with exposure history expression was high and stable and without there was a slow response. Adaptation to metal contamination likely explains the differences. Clonality of D. octaedra was verified with m…
Validación de un modelo explicativo del envejecimiento exitoso en muestra española
2015
La presente investigación presenta un modelo explicativo de envejecimiento exitoso que comprenda las concepciones del buen envejecer de la población española. Se parte de la premisa de que la formación continuada a lo largo de la vida del individuo (lifelong learning) puede ser un factor de gran importancia para el mantenimiento de la actividad mental y la realización personal, fomentándose así las conductas de salud y la calidad de vida en las personas mayores. Para ello, en primer término, se realiza una búsqueda sistemática de la bibliografía científica en los últimos 12 años sobre el envejecimiento harmónico relacionado con los principales modelos de envejecimiento y las variables consi…

An antique lead coffin discovered in Évreux (Eure): a multidisciplinary study
2013
The Roman cemetery of le Clos au Duc in Évreux (Eure) lasted from the 1st to the 4th c. AD. The most common funerary practice in the 1st c. AD was cremation. From the beginning of the 2nd c. AD this rapidly gave place to inhumation burials. By the end of the 3rd c. lead coffins could be found in burials, but it remained a minority practice reserved for an elite. The 2010 excavation in Évreux allowed the recovery of an example of these. It was incomplete, but the good preservation of its remains made a multidisciplinary study possible. Apart from the bones of a young woman, the lead coffin contained coins, textile, fur, calcite (CaCO3) and insects. These results make it possible to retrace t…
Glycerosomes:investigation of role of 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidycholine (DMPC) on the assembling and skin delivery performances
2017
Glycerosomes were formulated using 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidycholine (DMPC), diclofenac sodium salt and 10, 20 or 30% glycerol in the water phase, while corresponding liposomes were prepared with the same amount of DMPC and diclofenac, without glycerol. The aim of the present work was to evaluate the effect of the used phospholipid on vesicle features and ability to favour diclofenac skin deposition by comparing these results with those found in previous works performed using hydrogenated soy phosphatidylcholine (P90H) and dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC). Liposomes and glycerosomes were multilamellar, liposomes being smaller (72±6nm). Interactions among glycerol, phospho…
Consumer Emotions and E-commerce: A Literature Review
2017
The purpose of this paper is to take a look at the current state of the research related to consumer emotions in the context of electronic commerce (e-commerce). As the popularity of online shopping is constantly growing, the author performed an integrative literature review of 66 journal articles on e-emotions (consumer emotions visible in an online environment) and classified the articles into four groups. According to the analysis of the groups, consumer emotions are present at various points of the e-commerce relationship from pre-purchase intentions to postconsumption behavior. Based on this literature review, directions for future research in e-emotions are also introduced. peerReview…
