Facsimile : The Makings of the Similar in Graham Rawle’s Collage Novel Woman’s World
2016
This article reads Graham Rawle's collage novel Woman's World (2005) by utilizing the literal and metaphoric meanings of the facsimile as critical tools. Woman's World is an assemblage of circa 40,000 fragments cut and pasted from over a 1000 copies of British women's magazines of the early 1960s. These snippets are reproduced in facsimile and thus feature a jerky variety of font types, cases, and sizes. Woman's World does not only present a facsimile of its found graphic materials but it also studies, in my reading, the "facsimile" (similarizing, imitating, copying) qualities of gender identification, adopted discourses, (cross-)dressing, and the novel's own construction. The "varieties of…
Kybertoiminnallisuuden havainnointi Suomen Erillisverkot Oy:ssä
2018
Valokuituverkko siirtyi Puolustusvoimilta Suomen Erillisverkot Oy konsernin hallintaan ja omistukseen liikkeenluovutuksen yhteydessä 1.3.2015. Tämä Pro Gradu tutkielma syntyi liikkeenluovutuksen tuoman turvallisuusnäkökulma-ajattelun vuoksi. Tutkielmassa käsitellään kyberturvallisuuden käsitteiden ja toimijoiden lisäksi Suomen Erillisverkot Oy konsernin työntekijöiden kyberturvallisuuden tietämystasoa Suomen Erillisverkot Oy konsernissa sekä CSIRT-toiminnallisuutta yleisesti. Tutkimuksessa selvitettiin yhtiön henkilöstön toimia ja termien tuntemusta kyberturvallisuuteen liittyen verkkokyselyn avulla. Kyselyn tuloksista voidaan havaita ajankohtaisten haittaohjelmien toimintamallien koulutuks…
Comparative characteristics of older people with type 1 diabetes treated with continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion or insulin injection therapy :…
2019
Aim To compare clinical characteristics and outcomes in adults with type 1 diabetes aged ≥ 60 years using continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) vs. insulin injection therapy. Further, to determine the percentage of older adults with type 1 diabetes using CSII. Research design and methods Retrospective study using data of the Diabetes Prospective Follow-up Registry (DPV). Including percentage CSII use from 2008 to 2018, and the characteristics of 9547 individuals extracted from the DPV in March 2019 (N = 1404 CSII; N = 8143 insulin injection therapy). Wilcoxon rank sum tests were used for continuous variables and chi-square tests for categorical variables to compare clinical charac…
P–410 Comparison of the incidence of miscarriage rates in frozen versus fresh embryo transfers in IVF/ICSI cycles: a meta-analysis of Randomized Cont…
2021
Abstract Study question Is the incidence of miscarriage rates increased in frozen embryo transfer (ET) compared with fresh ET? Summary answer The frozen ET is not associated with an increased risk of miscarriage in comparison with fresh ET. What is known already Nowadays, the freeze-all policy has gained great popularity because it minimizes OHSS and it seems to improve the reproductive outcomes. This increase was possible thanks to progress in vitrification procedures. Nevertheless, some recent evidence suggests more caution on the wide use of elective frozen ET in a general IVF population for its possible effect on some pregnancy-related complications. Endometrial preparation schemes for …
P–409 Comparison of the incidence of ectopic pregnancies in fresh versus frozen embryo transfers in IVF/ICSI cycles: a meta-analysis of Randomized Co…

Abstract Study question Is the incidence of ectopic pregnancy (EP) increased in fresh compared with frozen embryo transfer (ET)? Summary answer The fresh ET is not associated with an increase of the incidence of EP in comparison with frozen ET. What is known already EP represents the first cause of mortality in the first trimester of pregnancy. Assisted reproductive technologies (ART) are associated with an increased EP risk. The reasons of this effect are inadequately explained and may be associated with variables patients-related as tubal diseases and ART-related as the number of embryos transferred, the depth of insertion of the catheter tip during ET and the supraphysiological estradiol…

Fertility After Ovarian Cystectomy: How Does Surgery Affect IVF/ICSI Outcomes?
2019
Abstract Introduction For patients considering undergoing assisted reproductive techniques (ART), many concerns arise when persistent ovarian cysts are found. This large study aimed to determine how ovarian cyst removal affects success rates of IVF/ICSI therapies. Methods 550 patients who underwent an IVF/ICSI treatment between 2002 and 2011 with a persistent ovarian cyst ≤ 5 cm before treatment were analyzed retrospectively. 328 patientsʼ preference was to undergo a laparoscopic cystectomy and 222 patients opted for a conservative management. Control subjects included 13 552 patients undergoing IVF/ICSI at the same period of time without an ovarian cyst. Results After adjusting for age, pa…
Continuous subcutaneous Insulin infusion leads to immediate, table, and long-term changes in metabolic control
2008
Background: Evaluations of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) usually focus on one pre- and one post-CSII measurement to assess metabolic therapy outcome. Aim: Extending this research, the aim of the present study was to provide a more fine-grained analysis of achieved glycaemic control. Methods: In 52 patients with type 1 diabetes (mean age of 37.85 years at CSII begin; s.d. ± 12.41), haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels were assessed every 3 months over a period of 5 years (1 year before and 4 years after the introduction of CSII). Mixed models were utilized to describe changes in glycaemic control. Results: The pre–post course showed that already in the first quarter, a statis…
What Students Think About Game-Themed CS1
2014
There has been rising academic interest in including computer game programming in CS1 curriculum during the past years, and many experience reports exist on the topic. Still, there is a need for knowledge on student reception, that is, how the students themselves view the game theme on a CS1 course. In this paper we review our CS1 course feedback from the years 2008–2013, of which three first years were carried out without games, while the latter three years part of our weekly assignments, plus a bigger course assignment, have been “game-themed”. We found that over 90 % found contextualization through games fun, motivating or rewarding in some other way. Less than 10%of the respondents have…
Análisis estructural y modificación funcional de la glucoamilasa de Saccharomyces cerevisiae var diastaticus.
2008
La glucoamilasa (GA) es uno de los enzimas producidos en mayor cantidad por la industria biotecnológica. Se emplea en el procesado del almidón degradándolo y liberando residuos de glucosa al medio. Saccharomyces cerevisiae (var. diastaticus) posee genes denominados STA que codifican GAs (Yamashita et al 1987). Este enzima presenta una estructura atípica ya que posee un dominio N-terminal, rico en residuos de serina y treonina (STRD o "Ser and Thr rich-domain") ausente en las otras GAs fúngicas y carece de un dominio de unión al almidón o (SBD o "Starch Binding domain) presente en la mayoría enzimas. La ausencia de este dominio hace que la GA de S. cerevisiae sea ineficaz en la degradación d…
