Nudge for justice : An ERP investigation of default effects on trade-offs between equity and efficiency
2020
Default options are an increasingly common tool used by organizations, managers, and policymakers to guide individuals’ behavior. We wondered whether the known preference for default options could constitute a nudge to achieve more equitable or more efficient results. Combining with event-related potentials, we found that both the default option and distributive justice contributed significantly to decision-making. The N200s and P300s were extracted using the tensor decomposition, which showed superiority in terms of capturing multi-domain features. The results demonstrated that greater brain activity associated with conflict monitoring was elicited in the trade-off between equity and effic…
The association of cannabis use with fast-food consumption, overweight, and obesity among adolescents aged 12-15 years from 28 countries
2022
Background: Cannabis legalization and use have risen globally. However, the association between cannabis use, eating behaviors and body weight among adolescents is yet unexplored. Objectives: This study examined the association between cannabis use, fast-food consumption, overweight and obesity in 28 countries using data from the 2010–2016 Global School-Based Student Health Survey. Methods: Multivariable logistic regression and meta-analysis were performed among a sample of 83,726 adolescents (48.7% females) aged 12–15 years, mean (SD) age of 13.8 (0.9) years. Results: The overall prevalence of cannabis use (in past 30 days) and fast-food consumption (in past 7 days) were 2.8% and 57.3% res…
The corticotrophin-releasing factor/urocortin system regulates white fat browning in mice through paracrine mechanisms.
2015
Objectives:\ud The corticotrophin-releasing factor (CRF)/urocortin system is expressed in the adipose tissue of mammals, but its functional role in this tissue remains unknown.\ud \ud Methods:\ud Pharmacological manipulation of the activity of CRF receptors, CRF1 and CRF2, was performed in 3T3L1 white pre-adipocytes and T37i brown pre-adipocytes during in vitro differentiation. The expression of genes of the CRF/urocortin system and of markers of white and brown adipocytes was evaluated along with mitochondrial biogenesis and cellular oxygen consumption. Metabolic evaluation of corticosterone-deficient or supplemented Crhr1-null (Crhr1−/−) mice and their wild-type controls was performed alo…

Paperinen avaruus : näkökulmia kirjaesineen ja kirjallisuuden materiaalisuuksiin
2020
Ubiikin sähköisen tekstuaalisuuden ja digitaalisen median vakiintuminen on saanut kirjailijoiden ja tutkijoiden huomion kiinnittymään jälleen kulttuurin perustekijään: painettuun kirjaan. Paperinen avaruus. Näkökulmia kirjaesineen ja kirjallisuuden materiaalisuuksiin on ensimmäinen suomenkielinen tutkimusjulkaisu, jossa keskitytään kirjallisuuden, erityisesti kirjan, materiaalisuuden kysymyksiin. Kirjaa materiaalisena oliona ja funktionaalisena ilmaisuvälineenä tutkivien vertaisarvioitujen artikkelien lisäksi teoksessa on mukana runoja sekä vapaamuotoisia esseitä.
Donor-π-acceptors containing the 10-(1,3-dithiol-2-ylidene)anthracene unit for dye-sensitized solar cells
2012
Two donor-acceptor molecular tweezers incorporating the 10-(1,3-dithiol-2-ylidene)anthracene unit as donor group and two cyanoacrylic units as accepting/anchoring groups are reported as metal-free sensitizers for dye-sensitized solar cells. By changing the phenyl spacer with 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) units, the absorption spectrum of the sensitizer is red-shifted with a corresponding increase in the molar absorptivity. Density functional calculations confirmed the intramolecular charge-transfer nature of the lowest-energy absorption bands. The new dyes are highly distorted from planarity and are bound to the TiO(2) surface through the two anchoring groups in a unidentate binding for…

Sigma 1 receptora ietekme uz peļu mezenhimālo stromas šūnu osteodiferenciāciju
2021
Mezenhimālajām stromas šūnām (MSŠ) piemīt osteodiferenciācijas potenciāls. Sigma-1 receptors (SigmaR1) ir transmembrānu proteīns, tā ietekme uz osteodiferenciāciju nav vēl zināma. Bakalaura darba mērķis bija noskaidrot SigmaR1 ietekmi uz peļu taukaudu MSŠ (T-MSŠ) osteodiferenciāciju. Osteodiferenciācijas norise un SigmaR1 ietekme uz osteodiferenciāciju tika analizēta, pētot osteoģenēzē iesaistīto gēnu ekspresiju peļu T-MSŠ ar qPCR metodi. Salīdzinot izslēgta SigmaR1 (S1R-/-) T-MSŠ pret WT (wild type) T-MSŠ gēnu ekspresiju pēc osteodiferenciācijas, transkripcijas faktora osterix ekspresija tika nozīmīgi palielināta, bet nediferencētā stāvoklī būtiskas izmaiņas netika novērotas.
Pacientu izglītošanas paradigmas māsu praksē
2019
Viedokli par veselības aprūpes sistēmu veido pacientu personiskā pieredze, novērtējot māsu kā pacientu informatīvo atbalstītāju, padomdevēju pedagoģiskās prasmes. Nonākot veselības aprūpes iestādē, ikviens, papildus medicīniskajai palīdzībai, sagaida izglītojošu atbalstu. Veselības izglītības darbā māsai jāvērš uzmanība jaunākajām mācīšanās stratēģijām un metodēm. Darba autore ir izstrādājusi bakalaura darbu par tēmu – ‘‘ Pacientu izglītošanas paradigmas māsu praksē’’. Darba mērķis ir noskaidrot pacientu viedokli par māsu darbu pacientu izglītošanā veselības aprūpes iestādēs. Darbs sastāv no 45 lapaspusēm, 7 nodaļām, 15 tabulām, 2 pielikumiem. Pētījumā tika izmantota kvantitatīvā metode – a…
