First record of conulariids from the Tērvete Formation, Upper Devonian of Latvia
2020
Phosphatized remains belonging to conulariids have been found in the Middle Famennian (Upper Devonian) deposits of the TÄrvete Formation of Latvia for the first time. The ornamentation pattern and characteristics of the exoskeleton indicate that the conulariids, represented by two incomplete and flattened specimens, belong to a single species within the genus Paraconularia. Paraconularia sp. from the TÄrvete Formation differs from Conularia latviensis Delle from the JoniÅ¡kis Formation in size and details of the morphology of the periderm; however, most probably, the species C. latviensis also belongs to the genus Paraconularia. Finding well-preserved almost complete conulariids agrees with…

Severe Tremor After Cotrimoxazole-Induced Elevation of Venlafaxine Serum Concentrations in a Patient With Major Depressive Disorder
2013
: We describe a female patient who was an extensive metabolizer of cytochrome P450 isoenzyme (CYP) 2D6 and an intermediate metabolizer of CYP2C19 (genotype: CYP2C19 *1/*2). She exhibited high serum concentrations of venlafaxine and O-desmethylvenlafaxine and developed severe tremor after comedication with cotrimoxazole (sulfamethazole/trimethoprim). Venlafaxine is mainly metabolized by O- and N-demethylation. O-demethylation is catalyzed by the highly polymorphic CYP2D6 and N-demethylation by several enzymes, CYP2C19, CYP2C9, and CYP3A4. The observed overall pharmacokinetic effect was most probably the result of decreased N-demethylation of venlafaxine by (1) reduced expression of CYP2C19 d…
Rituximab for Immune Thrombocytopenia: A Retrospective Analysis on the Role of Prophylaxis Against Pneumocystis Jirovecii and Herpes Zoster Virus
2018
Abstract Introduction and objective of the study Rituximab (RTX) is considered a valid second line treatment option for persistent or chronic Immune Thrombocytopenia (ITP). RTX is known to affect the immune system thus increasing the risk for viral and fungal infections. Although prophylactic treatment to prevent Pneumocystis jirovecii (PJ) and herpes viruses' infections is used in patients with haematological neoplasms receiving RTX, these evidence is lacking in ITP patients candidated to anti-CD20 therapy. We here reported the role of phrophylaxis in a cohort of patients treated with RTX for refractory/relapsed ITP. Methods Data from patients affected by ITP and treated at our Institution…

Apparent and quantitative loss of fatty acids and triacylglycerols at frying temperatures
2012
[EN]: Olive and sunflower oils were heated at 180 °C for 5, 10 and 15 hours with the aim of defining the changes in the contents of fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) and triacylglycerols (TAG) under frying conditions. Differences between apparent and real loss of FAME or TAG are defined for an adequate interpretation of the changes taking place at high temperature. Such differences depend on the expression of the results and frequently result in erroneous conclusions. Results showed that from the normalized composition it could be deduced that only the most unsaturated FAME (C18:2) or TAG containing it was significantly altered. However, quantitative data indicated that all the unsaturated FA…
Síntesis de biodiésel y caracterización de bebidas alcohólicas mediante técnicas de elevada resolución
2015
En esta Tesis Doctoral se describe el desarrollo de procedimientos de síntesis de biodiésel y caracterización de bebidas alcohólicas mediante técnicas analíticas de elevada resolución. La puesta a punto de los procedimientos de síntesis de biodiésel y sus estudios de caracterización se realizó en respuesta a la demanda de producción de biocombustibles basados en materias primas renovables y de bajo impacto ambiental que puedan reemplazar de manera efectiva al diésel convencional obtenido a partir de fuentes fósiles. Otro de los aspectos descritos en esta Tesis, y entroncando con una de las líneas actuales de investigación del grupo, es la caracterización de proteínas en diversos extractos v…
HPLC/HRMS and GC/MS for Triacylglycerols Characterization of Tuna Fish Oils Obtained from Green Extraction
2023
Background: Fish oil is one of the most common lipidic substances that is consumed as a dietary supplement. The high omega-3 fatty acid content in fish oil is responsible for its numerous health benefits. Fish species such as mackerel, herring, tuna, and salmon are particularly rich in these lipids, which contain two essential omega-3 fatty acids, known as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Objectives: Due to the scarcity of information in the literature, this study aimed to conduct a qualitative and quantitative characterization of triglycerides (TAGs) in crude tuna fish oil using HPLC/HRMS. Fatty acid (FA) determination was also performed using GC/MS. The tuna fis…

Holoptychiidae dzimtas daivspurzivis (Porolepiformes) no Latvijas augšējā devona Ketleru svītas nogulumiem
2022
Visotina T. 2022. Holoptychiidae dzimtas daivspurzivis (Porolepiformes) no Latvijas augšējā devona Ketleru svītas nogulumiem. Bakalaura darbā ir pētītas Ketleru svītas, Pavāru un Varkaļu ridas nogulumiežos sastopamo porolepiformo daivspurzivju (dzimta Holoptychiidae) atliekas, raksturota to izplatība, daudzveidība, morfoloģiskās īpatnības un veikts salīdzinājums ar citur pasaulē atrastajām un literatūrā aprakstītajām zivīm. Lielākā uzmanība pievērsta Holoptychius ģints pārstāvjiem, kuru atliekām ir precizēta to taksonomisko piederība. Pētījumā izmantoti materiāli no trīs Ketleru svītas mugurkaulnieku atlieku atrodnēm. Lauka darbi veikti 2019. un 2021.gadā, kad darba autore piedalījās materi…
