Reliability of adapted version of Italian Label tobacco Impact Index for the adolescent: ALII
2017
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to assess the reliability of the Adolescent Label Impact Index (ALII) , it is an adolescent adapted version of Italian LII of the tobacco products warnings. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A sample including students aged 13-15 years was considered. The ALII is constructed by 4 items: salience, harm, quitting and forgo. The questionnaire was self-administered to study participants twice with 3 days between each administration (T1 and T2) to measure reliability. The internal consistency using Cronbach's alpha and Corrected Item-Total Correlations (CITC) and the test-retest reliability applying Pearson's correlation were computed. RESULTS: Cronbach's alpha ranges fro…
Chronic pain affects the whole person--a phenomenological study.
2014
The aim of this qualitative study was to explore participants' perspectives on the effects of chronic pain on the psychophysical unity.Thirty-four chronic pain outpatients were interviewed, and the transcribed interviews were analysed with Giorgi's four-phase phenomenological method. The mean age of the participants was 48 years, and 19 of them were women. For 21 of the participants, the pain duration was more than 5 years, and most had degenerative spinal pain.The results of this whole research project indicated that the phenomenon chronic pain consisted of four essential themes: Pain affects the whole person, invisibility, negativity, and dominance of pain. This study concentrates only on…

Vēlīnie rezultāti un pacienta apmierinatība pēc ceļa locītavas endoprotezēšanas, atkarībā no pielietotās anestēzijas veida
2016
Starp pacientiem pasaulē, kam veikta totāla ceļa locītavas endoprotezēšana, pēc operācijas līdz pat 30% neizjūt nekādus sāpju vai funkcionalitātes uzlabojumus. Daļa pacientu izjūt smagas sāpes pēcoperācijas periodā un daudziem tās saglabājas vēl gadu pēc operācijas. Pētījuma mērķis ir noskaidrot kurš anestēzijas veids: kombinētā spināli epidurālā (KSEA) vai spinālā anestēzija kombinēta ar nervus femoralis katetru (SA+NF), ir saistīts ar viszemākām sāpēm pēcoperācijas periodā, apmēram gadu pēc operācijas un ar vislabāko ceļa locītavas funkcionalitāti, pēc paša pacienta vērtējuma. Otrs mērķis ir identificēt iespējamos riska faktorus, kuru dēļ pacientam var būt neapmierinoši operācijas iznākum…
Rho GTPases in human breast tumours: expression and mutation analyses and correlation with clinical parameters
2002
In the present study, we addressed the question of a putative relevance of Rho proteins in tumour progression by analysing their expression on protein and mRNA level in breast tumours. We show that the level of RhoA, RhoB, Rac1 and Cdc42 protein is largely enhanced in all tumour samples analysed (n=15) as compared to normal tissues originating from the same individual. The same is true for 32P-ADP-ribosylation of Rho proteins which is catalysed by Clostridium botulinum exoenzyme C3. Also the amount of Rho-GDI and ERK2 as well as the level of overall 32P-GTP binding acvitity was tumour-specific elevated, yet to a lower extent than Rho proteins. Although the amount of Rho proteins was enhance…
"En vain kyennyt liikkumaan" : lamaantumiskokemuksen fenomenologia seksuaalisessa väkivallassa
2019
Kansalaisaloite raiskauslainsäädännön muuttamisesta suostumusperustaiseksi on edennyt eduskuntaan, ja lainmuutoksen valmisteleminen on kirjattu myös nykyiseen hallitusohjelmaan. Nykylainsäädännön ongelmana on, että raiskaus määritellään muun väkivallan ja sen uhan tai raiskauksen kohteeksi joutuneen tiedottomuuden perusteella. Useissa tutkimuksissa on kuitenkin todettu, että lamaantuminen teon aikana on erittäin yleistä eikä reaktioon välttämättä kuulu tietoisuuden menettämistä. Lamaantumiseen liittyviä fyysisiä tekijöitä ja tuntemuksia on käsitelty haastattelututkimuksissa, mutta jos tahdosta riippumatonta liikkumattomuutta halutaan ymmärtää paremmin kehollisena, moninaisiin tunteisiin ja …
Enterobacter cloacae administration induces hepatic damage and subcutaneous fat accumulation in high-fat diet fed mice.
2018
Accumulating evidence indicates that gut microbiota plays a significant role in obesity, insulin resistance and associated liver disorders. Family Enterobacteriaceae and especially Enterobacter cloacae strain B29 have been previously linked to obesity and hepatic damage. The underlying mechanisms, however, remain unclear. Therefore, we comprehensively examined the effects of E. cloacae subsp. cloacae (ATCC® 13047™) administration on host metabolism of mice fed with high-fat diet (HFD). C57BL/6N mice were randomly divided into HFD control, chow control, and E. cloacae treatment groups. The E. cloacae treatment group received live bacterial cells in PBS intragastrically twice a week, every ot…
Farewell to Anarchy : The Myth of International Anarchy and Birth of Anarcophilia in International Relations
2018
This article scrutinizes the conceptual history of international anarchy. The argument purported here is that even though the idea of international anarchy is often seen as very central for the academic discipline of international relations, the concept is in fact not found from the forerunners or classics of the discipline. The assumption of international anarchy is commonly seen as a defining feature of a Realist school of international relations. Yet, the concept and especially its “Realist” implications are not to be found in the classics of Realism, from Thucydides, Machiavelli or Hobbes. The idea of “international anarchy” emerges quite tentatively during the First World War, in the w…
El papel de las mujeres en la historia según las imágenes de los libros de texto. Comparación de manuales editados durante la LOE y la LOMCE
2016
This paper focuses on the study of the role of women and its representation in the images of the textbooks of Environmental Knowledge and Social Sciences subjects, specifically in History topics. Textbooks can give us an overview of how women are presented in the historical discourse carried from Primary Education, and through their analysis we can see if it has or not an androcentric bias. Therefrom it’s developed an analysis and a comparison of the data between volumes of both last education laws implemented in Spain (LOE and LOMCE).
Strength of sexual and postmating prezygotic barriers varies between sympatric populations with different histories and species abundances
2019
The impact of different reproductive barriers on species or population isolation may vary in different stages of speciation depending on evolutionary forces acting within species and through species’ interactions. Genetic incompatibilities between interacting species are expected to reinforce prezygotic barriers in sympatric populations and lead to cascade reinforcement between conspecific populations living within and outside the areas of sympatry. We tested these predictions and studied whether and how the strength and target of reinforcement between Drosophila montana and Drosophila flavomontana vary between sympatric populations with different histories and species abundances. All barri…
