Politische Konzepte in der DDR
2013
Dieser Sammelband geht aus sprach-, literatur- und kulturwissenschaftlicher Perspektive der Frage nach, wie (politische) Begriffe in der ehemaligen DDR konstituiert werden. Autoren aus Deutschland, Frankreich und Griechenland untersuchen Texte aus den Bereichen Presse, Literatur und Politik sowie Propaganda-Plakate und decken dabei bestimmte Vertextungsstrategien auf, die einen Einblick in die DDR-spezifische Diskurswelt gewähren. Eine besondere Aufmerksamkeit liegt bei intertextuellen bzw. -diskursiven Bezügen und bei der mehr oder weniger expliziten, aber fast immer vorhandenen Integration des öffentlichen Diskurses in andere, nicht offizielle Diskurskonfigurationen. Das Buch ist somit fü…
El uso de tú y usted en el área metropolitana de Valencia. Un enfoque variacionista
2017
espanolEn este trabajo se realiza un estudio estadistico sobre el uso de las formas de tratamiento en Valencia y su area metropolitana. Tras una breve introduccion teorica sobre el tema y la explicacion de la metodologia utilizada, ofrecemos los resultados en terminos porcentuales. Pero, al tratarse de un fenomeno en el que intervienen multiples factores al mismo tiempo, hemos realizado tambien un analisis de regresion, que permite ver los resultados cuando todos los factores actuan de manera simultanea. Todas las variables que hemos analizado, salvo la lengua habitual (castellano o valenciano), resultan estadisticamente significativas, si bien las probabilidades de aparicion del tuteo son …
Liver fibrosis: Direct antifibrotic agents and targeted therapies
2018
Liver fibrosis and in particular cirrhosis are the major causes of morbidity and mortality of patients with chronic liver disease. Their prevention or reversal have become major endpoints in clinical trials with novel liver specific drugs. Remarkable progress has been made with therapies that efficiently address the cause of the underlying liver disease, as in chronic hepatitis B and C. Highly effective antiviral therapy can prevent progression or even induce reversal in the majority of patients, but such treatment remains elusive for the majority of liver patients with advanced alcoholic or nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, genetic or autoimmune liver diseases. Moreover, drugs that would speed…
Influences of TP53 and the anti-aging DDR1 receptor in controlling Raf/MEK/ERK and PI3K/Akt expression and chemotherapeutic drug sensitivity in prost…
2020
Background TP53 plays critical roles in sensitivity to chemotherapy, and aging. Collagen is very important in aging. The molecular structure and biochemical properties of collagen changes during aging. The discoidin domain receptor (DDR1) is regulated in part by collagen. Elucidating the links between TP53 and DDR1 in chemosensitivity and aging could improve therapies against cancer and aging. Results Restoration of WT-TP53 activity resulted in increased sensitivity to chemotherapeutic drugs and elevated expression of key components of the Raf/MEK/ERK, PI3K/Akt and DDR1 pathways. DDR1 could modulate the levels of Raf/MEK/ERK and PI3K/Akt pathways as well as sensitize the cells to chemothera…
Akūta alkohola hepatīta klīniskā norise un iznākumi
2015
Diplomdarba tēma. Akūta alkohola hepatīta klīniskā norise un iznākumi. Ievads. Alkohola hepatīts ir klīnisks sindroms, ko izraisa hroniska alkohola lietošana. Akūts alkohola hepatīts vienmēr attīstās uz jau esoša hroniska alkohola aknu bojājuma fona – taukainās hepatozes, steatohepatīta, fibrozes vai cirozes. Agrīna mirstība no alkohola hepatīta variē pēc slimības smaguma no 20% vieglām formām līdz 30-60% smagām formām. Darba mērķis. Pacientiem ar akūtu alkohola hepatītu noteikt un salīdzināt prognostiskos rādītājus pēc Maddrey un MELD aprēķiniem, kas ļautu prognozēt slimības attīstības tendenci un iznākumu pirmreizēji stacionētiem, atkārtoti stacionētiem un mirušiem pacientiem Latvijā.

Long-term general and cardiovascular safety of tiotropium/olodaterol in patients with moderate to very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
2016
Abstract Background Long-term safety, particularly cardiovascular safety, is of special interest in maintenance treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with long-acting β 2 -agonists and long-acting muscarinic antagonists, given potential cardiovascular effects. Methods Two 52-week Phase III trials (TONADO ® ) investigated tiotropium/olodaterol (5/5 and 2.5/5 μg) versus tiotropium 2.5, 5 μg and olodaterol 5 μg. In a pre-specified safety analysis, investigator-reported treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs), electrocardiogram and laboratory data were pooled. All serious AE (SAE) reports were reviewed by an independent Adjudication Committee, which assessed whether deaths, …
Opportunistic infections in immunosuppressed patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis: analysis by the Pharmachild Safety Adjudication Committee
2020
Background: To derive a list of opportunistic infections (OI) through the analysis of the juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) patients in the Pharmachild registry by an independent Safety Adjudication Committee (SAC). Methods: The SAC (3 pediatric rheumatologists and 2 pediatric infectious disease specialists) elaborated and approved by consensus a provisional list of OI for use in JIA. Through a 5 step-procedure, all the severe and serious infections, classified as per MedDRA dictionary and retrieved in the Pharmachild registry, were evaluated by the SAC by answering six questions and adjudicated with the agreement of 3/5 specialists. A final evidence-based list of OI resulted by matching …
A block access unit for 2D memory access
2007
Many of the coding tools in the H.264/AVC video coding standard are based on 2D processing resulting in rowwise and column-wise memory accesses starting from arbitrary memory addresses. This paper discusses a low-cost hardware realization of these accesses on sub-word parallel processors. The proposed block access unit is placed between the processor and memory. It supports unaligned 2D block accesses according to several 2D access patterns. The 2D block accesses are pipelinable and they result in minimum number of memory accesses required to deliver the desired data.
Detecting global and local hippocampal shape changes in Alzheimer's disease using statistical shape models.
2012
Item does not contain fulltext The hippocampus is affected at an early stage in the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD). With the use of structural magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, we can investigate the effect of AD on the morphology of the hippocampus. The hippocampal shape variations among a population can be usually described using statistical shape models (SSMs). Conventional SSMs model the modes of variations among the population via principal component analysis (PCA). Although these modes are representative of variations within the training data, they are not necessarily discriminative on labeled data or relevant to the differences between the subpopulations. We use the shape des…
La Méthode como hermenéutica musical Homenaje a Edgar Morin por su 100º cumpleaños
2021
The present work addresses the principles and properties of the complex thought formulated by the French thinker Edgar Morin and the way in which he was able me to articulate his conception of organizational complexity with one of the most important theories of musical analysis, which emerged at the beginning of the 20th century: the schenkerian analysis. It is a review and extension of a few pages of my doctoral thesis, which are intended to pay tribute to who has been, in addition to my teacher, Honorary President of Itamar since its first issue. His teachings and support has always been the engine for my quest for musical organization. On July 21, 2021, Morin celebrated his 100th birthda…
