Firstly, in the theoretical part, the concept of sustainability reporting and materiality is explained along with the provision of materiality in different reporting guidelines. In this research section, fifteen different airlines’ sustainability reports are analyzed to find out how the materiality analysis is carried out in the airlines. The study is focuse…
Laika un atskaišu apkopošanas sistēma ar "JIRA" integrāciju
2017
Šis dokuments ir Latvijas Universitātes Datorikas fakultātes kvalifikācijas darba ietvaros iz- strādātā projekta ”Laika un atskaišu sistēma ar ”JIRA” integrāciju” dokumentācija, kas sastāv no programmatūras prasību specifikācijas, datu bāzes projektējuma un ārējās saskarnes apraksta. Izstrādātās informācijas sistēmas mērķis ir nodrošināt programmatūras izstrādāšanas kompāni- jām ērtu veidu, kā klientus informēt par padarīto darbu un tam patērēto laiku. Sistēma sastāv no četriem moduļiem: 1. Lietotāju modulis, kas nodrošina pieteikšanos un tiesību sadalījumu; 2. Darba žurnāla modulis, kas ļauj saņemt informāciju par ”Jira” reģistrētajām atskaitēm un mainīt to komentārus, neatstājot informāci…
Executive function and life-space mobility in old age
2018
Life-space assessment incorporates all movements in terms of the distance from home, the frequency of movement and the need of assistance for movement. Executive function (EF) is an important higher order cognitive ability that controls and guides people’s goal-directed actions. We examined the cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between EF and life-space mobility, and investigated if perceived walking difficulties, lower extremity performance, and transportation difficulties explain the association. Methods 157 community-dwelling persons aged 76–91 years participated in the study at the baseline, and 103 of them in 2-year follow-up study. Based on the distribution on the Trail Ma…
The combined effect of lower extremity function and cognitive performance on perceived walking ability among older people : a 2-year follow-up study
2018
Background We studied the combined effects of cognitive performance and lower extremity function on self-reported walking modifications and walking difficulty and on self-reported walking difficulty incidence over a 2-year follow-up. Methods A total of 848 community-dwelling older people aged 75-90 years participated at baseline, 816 at the 1-year follow-up, and 761 at the 2-year follow-up. Baseline lower extremity function was measured with the Short Physical Performance Battery (<10 vs. ≥10) and cognitive performance with the Mini-Mental State Examination (<24 vs. ≥24). Difficulty in walking 2 km was self-reported and categorized into no difficulties, no difficulties but walking modificat…
Komunistiskajā režīmā 1940.-1953.gadā politiski represēto personu atmiņu mantojums Latvijā
2019
Maģistra darba mērķis ir apzināt, apkopot un izpētīt komunistiskajā režīmā 1940. – 1953. gadā politiski represēto personu atmiņu mantojumu Latvijā, tā veidošanos, apjomu un saturu, kā arī aplūkot līdz 1991. gadam atmiņās atspoguļoto vēstījumu par režīma represijām. Pētījumā hronoloģiski aplūkota represiju pret Latvijas iedzīvotajiem norises gaita, veidi un apjoms LPSR un PSRS attālos Ziemeļu un Sibīrijas apgabalos, mirušo, atbrīvoto un Latvijā dzīvojošo skaits. Raksturotas politiski represēto personu atmiņas, apkopota informācija par atmiņu krājumiem un to krātuvēm.
Impact of Cardiorespiratory Fitness on Survival in Men with Low Socioeconomic Status
2020
Abstract Aims Although both low socioeconomic status (SES) and poor cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) are associated with increased chronic disease and heightened mortality, it remains unclear whether moderate-to-high levels of CRF are associated with survival benefits in low SES populations. This study evaluated the hypothesis that SES and CRF predict all-cause mortality and cardiovascular disease mortality and that moderate-to-high levels of CRF may attenuate the association between low SES and increased mortality. Methods This study included 2368 men, who were followed in the Kuopio Ischaemic Heart Disease Study cohort. CRF was directly measured by peak oxygen uptake during progressive exe…
Delayed, diffuse acute peritonitis secondary to misplacement of a cystogastrostomic "pigtail" drain in an outpatient after discharge.
2017
Background and aim of the work: Pancreatic pseudocyst endoscopic drainage by pancreatogastrostomy “pigtail” drain placement is spreading worldwide, with high success-rate and low morbidity, and is increasingly performed as outpatient procedure. The paper reports an unusual very early complication of this procedure and discusses the peculiar aspects of this event in an outpatient setting. Methods: The first case of a 56-year-old outpatient developing a postoperative diffused acute peritonitis by gastric juice spilling caused by the misplacement of the distal end of two transgastric drains not reaching the pseudocyst is reported. As the case was programmed as outpatient and acute peritonitis …
USA on the road: da The Americans di Robert Frank ad American Surfaces di Stephen Shore
2018
Robert Frank’s and Stephen Shore’s photographic reportages and their travels document an identity of the United States different from the conventional representations that usually show a successful country, able to enforce its social, economic, political, and aesthetics models. These reportages represent an other America, far from the stereotypes and full of contradictions: the places of common experience (almost non-places), the characters disillusioned and frustrated by the American dream, the banality of the situations represented, the commonplace, show that besides a winner’s imagery (like, recently, the one represented by Trump but also by Pete Souza, official photographer of Barack Ob…
