Selective breeding for endurance running capacity affects cognitive but not motor learning in rats

2012

The ability to utilize oxygen has been shown to affect a wide variety of physiological factors often considered beneficial for survival. As the ability to learn can be seen as one of the core factors of survival in mammals, we studied whether selective breeding for endurance running, an indication of aerobic capacity, also has an effect on learning. Rats selectively bred over 23 generations for their ability to perform forced treadmill running were trained in an appetitively motivated discrimination-reversal classical conditioning task, an alternating T-maze task followed by a rule change (from a shift-win to stay-win rule) and motor learning task. In the discrimination-reversal and T-maze …

Katsaus muodon optimoinnin menetelmiin

2017

Tutkielma esittelee muodon optimoinnin menetelmiä sekä niiden historiaa luoden katsauksen menetelmien kehittymiseen sekä niiden keskinäisiin suhteisiin. Tällaisia ovat esimerkiksi menetelmän matemaattisen teorian “kehittyneisyys” ja ratkaisemisen tehokkuus tai soveltuvuus. Tarkoituksena on muodostaa yleiskuva siitä, mitä menetelmiä muodon optimointiin on jo kehitetty, selvittää, miten ajankohtaisia eri menetelmät ovat, miten menetelmät vertautuvat toisiinsa ja selvittää, mihin eri menetelmät soveltuvat. Lukijan odotetaan selvittävän tarvittavat taustatiedot, sillä tutkielma ei juurikaan esittele muodon optimoinnin matematiikkaa. This thesis presents shape optimization methods, their history…

Optiseen sensoriteknologiaan pohjautuvan pulssimittarin hyödyntäminen maksimaalisen hapenottokyvyn ja energiankulutuksen arvioinnissa

2015

Ihmisten kiinnostus oman hyvinvoinnin ja terveyden mittaamiseen on viime aikoina lisääntynyt. Erityisesti Suomessa on perustettu uusia innovatiivisia hyvinvointi- ja terveysteknologian alan yrityksiä. PulseOn – yksi näistä startupeista – on kehittänyt optiseen sensoriteknologiaan pohjautuvan rannekkeen, jonka avulla voidaan mitata pulssia analysoimalla veren liikettä suonissa. Rannekkeen kautta kerätty data lähetetään älypuhelimeen, jossa se jalostetaan edelleen käyttäjäpalautteeksi. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää, miten tarkasti maksimaalista hapenottokykyä (VO2max) ja energiankulutusta voidaan arvioida optisen sensoriteknologian avulla kerätyn pulssi- sekä matkapuhelimella …

Las formas cotidianas de la felicidad y sus mandatos: Pedagogías del pensamiento positivo, trabajo docente y subjetividad en el neoliberalismo contem…

2020

Positive thinking constitutes one of the great traditions that lead to the idea of the subject as an entrepreneur of himself and is perhaps one of the best that has successfully condensed cultural, political, social and pedagogical processes linked to reflection on well-being in this historical time. The teaching work is especially moved by the pregnancy of these perspectives that challenge the pedagogical field and the education workers as ?agents of change, or at least one more school available to give the discussion on well-being and happiness (yours and the students?) is celebrated and encouraged. In this article, I intend to understand what is being built as pedagogical discourses abou…

Fluorine-containing functionalized cyclopentene scaffolds through ring contraction and deoxofluorination of various substituted cyclohexenes

2018

The fluorination of some highly‐functionalized cyclopentene derivatives, obtained from various substituted cyclohexenes through a ring‐opening/ring‐contraction procedure, has been investigated. The transformations were found to be highly substrate dependent, and led to the formation of various functionalized alicyclic compounds or heterocycles containing allyl difluoride or vinyl fluoride moieties. peerReviewed

DFT Prediction of Enhanced Reducibility of Monoclinic Zirconia upon Rhodium Deposition.

2018

Oxides are an important class of materials and are widely used, for example, as supports in heterogeneous catalysis. In a number of industrial catalytic processes, oxide supports actively participate in chemical transformations by releasing lattice oxygen anions. While this is intuitively understood for reducible oxides, the reducibility of irreducible oxides may be modified via nanoengineering or upon inclusion of foreign species. Our calculations predict that the ability of irreducible monoclinic zirconia to release oxygen improves substantially upon deposition of rhodium. Through a comprehensive screening of Rh/ZrO2 with different size of the rhodium species, we find that a Rh adatom and…

Reactions of m-Terphenyl-Stabilized Germylene and Stannylene with Water and Methanol: Oxidative Addition versus Arene Elimination and Different React…

2015

Reactions of the divalent germylene Ge(ArMe6)2 (ArMe6 = C6H3-2,6-{C6H2-2,4,6-(CH3)3}2) with water or methanol gave the Ge(IV) insertion product (ArMe6)2Ge(H)OH (1) or (ArMe6)2Ge(H)OMe (2), respectively. In contrast, its stannylene congener Sn(ArMe6)2 reacted with water or methanol to produce the Sn(II) species {ArMe6Sn(μ-OH)}2 (3) or {ArMe6Sn(μ-OMe)}2 (4), respectively, with elimination of ArMe6H. Compounds 1–4 were characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy as well as by X-ray crystallography. Density functional theory calculations yielded mechanistic insight into the formation of (ArMe6)2Ge(H)OH and {ArMe6Sn(μ-OH)}2. The insertion of an m-terphenyl-stabilized germylene into the O–H bond was…

Oxygen Transfer from Trimethylamine N-oxide to CuI Complexes Supported by Pentanitrogen Ligands

2020

[N,N-bis(1-methyl-2-benzimidazolyl)methyl-N-(bis-2-pyridylmethyl)amine] ( L 1 ) and [N,N-bis(2-quinolylmethyl)-N-bis(2-pyridyl)methylamine] ( L 2 ) were employed to prepare Cu II  and Cu I  complexes for spectroscopic and structural characterization. [ L 1 Cu II (H 2 O)](NO 3 ) 2 and [ L 2 Cu II (NO 3 )]NO 3 have Jahn-Teller distorted octahedral geometries, and give rise to isotropic EPR spectra in frozen solution. [ L 1 Cu I (CH 3 CN)]OTf and [ L 2 Cu I (CH 3 CN)]OTf have distorted trigonal bipyramidal and tetrahedral solid-state structures, respectively. The N-donors display labile behavior in solution, based on variable-temperature 1 H NMR studies. Addition of trimethylamine N-oxide (Me …

Oxygen uptake, acid-base balance and hormonal responses in maximal 300 - 400 m running in child, adolescent and adult athletes

2013

Vilmi, Nikke (2013). Oxygen uptake, acid-base balance and hormonal responses in maximal 300 - 400 m running in child, adolescent and adult athletes. Department of Biology of Physical Activity, University of Jyväskylä, Master's thesis, Science of Sport Coaching and Fitness Testing, 55 pp. The 400 m sprint demands both aerobic and anaerobic energy systems. During the race the acid-base balance of the body is disturbed and that has effects on the oxygen uptake. The purpose of this study was to investigate the oxygen uptake and acid-base balance during and after the maximal anaerobic running test in child (300 m), adolescent (350 m) and adult (400 m) athletes. Furthermore, the aim was also to d…
