Hormone replacement therapy improves contractile function and myonuclear organization of single fibres from postmenopausal monozygotic female twin pa…
2013
Ageing is associated with a decline in muscle mass and strength leading to increased physical dependency in old age. Postmenopausal women experience a greater decline than men of similar age in parallel with the decrease in female sex steroid hormone production. We recruited six monozygous female twin pairs (55–59 years old) where only one twin pair was on hormone replacement therapy (HRT use = 7.8 ± 4.3 years) to investigate the association of HRT with the cytoplasmic volume supported by individual myonuclei (myonuclear domain (MND) size,) together with specific force at the single fibre level. HRT use was associated with a significantly smaller (∼27%; P < 0.05) mean MND size in muscle fib…
Mūsdienu spāņu un franču autoru detektīvromānu svarīgākās pazīmes: komparatīvās studijas
2016
Šajā bakalaura darbā tiek piedāvāta četru detektīvromānu komparatīvā analīze. Tie ir – ‘’Ojos del agua’’ un ‘’La playa de los ahogados’’, kurus sarakstījis spāņu autors Domingo Viljars, kā arī ‘’Un lugar incierto’’ un ‘’El ejército furioso´´, kurus sarakstījusi franču autore Freda Vargasa. Konkrētā darba mērķis ir atklāt šo detektīvromānu kopīgās un atšķirīgās iezīmes.Literāro darbu analīzei izmantota semiotiķa Aļģirta Greima izveidotā metode.

Skolēna smadzeņu puslodes dominantes un prasmju attīstības ietekme uz mācību procesu matemātikas priekšmetā, tēmās par telpiskiem ķermeņiem, balstoti…
2020
Darba mērķis ir izpētīt smadzeņu puslodes dominantes ietekmi uz skolēna domāšanas un atrisinājuma meklēšanas gaitu uzdevumos par telpiskajiem ķermeņiem un izveidot palīgmateriālus skolēniem ar vājāk attīstītu telpisko domāšanu . Pētījuma gaitā tiek plānots apkopot informāciju par mācību procesa diferencēšanu un smadzeņu puslodes dominantes ietekmi uz mācīšanos , un veikt nelielas grupas izpēti pēc Gardnera testa un novērot tās rīcību, risinot uzdevumus, kas saistās ar telpisko iztēli. Izveidot un aprobēt uz nelielas grupas palīgmateriālus skolēniem ar vājāk attīstītu telpisko domāšanu. Tiek prognozēts, ka skolēniem, ar dominējošo kreiso smadzeņu puslodi, risinot uzdevumus par telpiskiem ķer…
Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, and In Vivo Exposure Therapy: A Preliminary Comparison of Treatment Efficacy in Small Animal Phobia
2018
This study aggregated data from three randomized control trials to explore the differential efficacy of three forms of exposure therapy, namely, in vivo (iVET), virtual reality (VRET), and augmented reality (ARET), in the treatment of small animal phobia. Additionally, baseline patient characteristics were used to detect subgroups of patients who showed a differential response to certain treatment modalities. Primary measures were distance covered, anxiety during the behavioral avoidance test (BAT), and overall fear of small animals. A repeated-measures analysis of variance was used to explore the overall treatment effect across the exposure modalities. A cluster analysis and an analysis of…

Possibilities for Intervention in Domestic Violence: Frame Analysis of Health Care Professionals’ Attitudes
2014
ABSTRACT. Violence is a serious problem, and social and health care providers are in a key position for implementing successful interventions. This qualitative study of 6 focus groups with professionals (n = 30) examines the health care professionals’ ways of framing a domestic violence intervention. Of special interest here is how professionals see their own roles in the process of recognizing and helping victims of domestic violence. By using Erving Goffman's frame analysis, this study identifies several frames that either: a) emphasize the obstacles to intervention and justify nonintervention, or on the contrary, b) question these obstacles and find justifications for intervention. The p…
Reciprocal Relationships Between Perceived Supportive School Climate and Self-reported Truancy : A Longitudinal Study from Grade 6 to Grade 9
2022
This longitudinal study of 1,066 Finnish students examined bidirectional reciprocal relationships between changes in perceived supportive school climate and changes in self-reported truancy from the last year of primary school (Grade 6) to the last year of lower secondary school (Grade 9). The results of the random intercept cross-lagged panel model showed, first, that a decrease in positive perceptions of school climate at the previous time point predicted more self-reported truancy at the following time point. Second, an increase in self-reported truancy predicted less positive perceptions of supportive school climate. The study indicates that students’ perceptions of supportive school cl…
Loss of density-dependence and incomplete control by dominant breeders in a territorial species with density outbreaks
2011
Background: A territory as a prerequisite for breeding limits the maximum number of breeders in a given area, and thus lowers the proportion of breeders if population size increases. However, some territorially breeding animals can have dramatic density fluctuations and little is known about the change from density-dependent processes to density-independence of breeding during a population increase or an outbreak. We suggest that territoriality, breeding suppression and its break-down can be understood with an incomplete-control model, developed for social breeders and social suppression. Results: We studied density dependence in an arvicoline species, the bank vole, known as a territorial …
