Acute Effect of Alcohol Intake on Cardiovascular Autonomic Regulation During the First Hours of Sleep in a Large Real-World Sample of Finnish Employe…
2018
Background Sleep is fundamental for good health, and poor sleep has been associated with negative health outcomes. Alcohol consumption is a universal health behavior associated with poor sleep. In controlled laboratory studies, alcohol intake has been shown to alter physiology and disturb sleep homeostasis and architecture. The association between acute alcohol intake and physiological changes has not yet been studied in noncontrolled real-world settings. Objective The aim of this study was to assess the effects of alcohol intake on the autonomic nervous system (ANS) during sleep in a large noncontrolled sample of Finnish employees. Methods From a larger cohort, this study included 4098 su…
Risk-Reducing Gynecological Surgery in Lynch Syndrome: Results of an International Survey from the Prospective Lynch Syndrome Database.
2020
Purpose: To survey risk-reducing hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (BSO) practice and advice regarding hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in women with Lynch syndrome. Methods: We conducted a survey in 31 contributing centers from the Prospective Lynch Syndrome Database (PLSD), which incorporates 18 countries worldwide. The survey covered local policies for risk-reducing hysterectomy and BSO in Lynch syndrome, the timing when these measures are offered, the involvement of stakeholders and advice regarding HRT. Results: Risk-reducing hysterectomy and BSO are offered to path_MLH1 and path_MSH2 carriers in 20/21 (95%) contributing centers, to path_MSH6 carriers in 19/21 (91%) and…
Descriptive study on subjective experience of genetic testing with respect to relationship, family planning and psychosocial wellbeing among women wi…
2021
AbstractBackgroundDue to increased risk of endometrial and ovarian cancer, women belonging to known Lynch Syndrome (LS) families are recommended to undergo germline testing. Current practice in Finland is to offer counselling to women with pathogenic variant and advocate risk-reducing surgery (RRS) after completion of childbirth. The present study aimed to clarify the impacts of positive germline testing on family planning and reproductive decisions of these women, which are relatively unknown.MethodsSeventy-nine carriers of germline MMR gene pathogenic variant (path_MMR)were identified from the Finnish LS Registry as having genetic testing performed before the age of 45 years and not havin…
Neural Mechanisms of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for Chronic Pain: A Network-Based fMRI Approach
2021
AbstractOver 100 million Americans suffer from chronic pain (CP), which causes more disability than any other medical condition in the U.S. at a cost of $560-$635 billion per year (IOM, 2011). Opioid analgesics are frequently used to treat CP. However, long term use of opioids can cause brain changes such as opioid-induced hyperalgesia that, over time, increase pain sensation. Also, opioids fail to treat complex psychological factors that worsen pain-related disability, including beliefs about and emotional responses to pain. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can be efficacious for CP. However, CBT generally does not focus on important factors needed for long-term functional improvement, i…
Brain oscillations: discovering their role in memory using Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation
Profiling microbial communities in hyperalkaline waters of the Kizildag ophiolite complex (Turkey).
2016
It has recently been hypothesized that life on Earth could have been originated in hyperalkaline waters related to serpentinization of ophiolitic rocks, despite their extreme conditions (high pH and very low levels of nutrients). Five hyperalkaline springs of the Kizildag ophiolite complex (Turkey) were characterized. The dominant gases are either H2, CH4 or N2 . Bacterial diversity, analysed by RISA (Ribosomal Intergenic Spacer Analysis) revealed different profles for each spring. Sequencing of excised DNA bands allowed to identify the presence of Bacillus, Ralstonia, Pseudoalteromonas., Ureibacillus, Alicycliphilus, Anaerococcus. 16S ribosomal DNA sequencing by Illumina is in progress.

Uczestnictwo mniejszości narodowych i etnicznych w polskim życiu politycznym po 1989 roku
2019
The participation of national and ethnic minorities in Polish political life after 1989 is one of the achieve-ments of democratic Poland. Tracing the history of minority participation in local and parliamentary elec-tions after 1990 makes it clear that this history is dominated by the German minority. However, this does not mean that other minorities did not participate in political competition at the local, regional or national level, but rather that their participation was clearly more modest compared to the German minority. Partici-pation in the political life of other minorities has mainly a local dimension, although these communities do not choose to participate in their own ethnic ele…
Attityder och motivation till svenska hos elever i årskurs 6 och 7
2017
Tämän kandidaatintutkielman tarkoituksena on selvittää, millaisia asenteita ja motivaatioita kuudes- ja seitsemäsluokkalaisilla on ruotsin kieltä ja sen opiskelua kohtaan ja onko luokka-asteiden oppilaiden välillä eroja. Ruotsin kielen opetus on uuden opetussuunnitelman (2014) mukaisesti aloitettu syksynä 2016, ja tarkoituksena on tutkia, onko opetuksen aikaistamisella vaikutusta oppilaiden asenteisiin ja motivaatioon. Tutkimusaineisto on kerätty kahdessa koulussa kyselylomakkeilla. Kyselylomake koostui yhteensä kahdestakymmenestäkahdesta asenteisiin ja motivaatioon liittyvästä kysymyksestä, joista viimeinen oli avoin kysymys. Tutkimukseen osallistui yksi luokkaryhmä kummaltakin luokka-aste…
Om klasslärarnas motivation och behörighet att undervisa i B1-svenska i sjätte klass och erfarenheter av svensklärarrollen
2018
Tämän tutkielman mielenkiinto kohdistuu seitsemän ensimmäistä lukuvuottaan ruotsia opettavan luokanopettajan motivaatioon, kelpoisuuteen ja ruotsin opet-tajana toimimiseen. Elokuussa 2016 peruskoulun opetussuunnitelman uudis-tumisen myötä ruotsin opetus siirtyi alkamaan kuudennelta luokalta, jolloin ai-neenopettajien lisäksi myös jotkin luokanopettajat alkoivat toimia B1-ruotsin opettajina. Tutkielmassa on kartoitettu luokanopettajien motiiveja ryhtyä opet-tamaan muiden alakoulun oppiaineiden lisäksi myös ruotsin kieltä, heidän ruot-sin kielen taustaansa, ajatuksiaan ruotsin opettajan tehtävästä ja pätevyyskä-sityksistä ruotsin opettajana sekä kuultu heidän kokemuksiaan kuluneen vuo-den ope…
Cells of extramammary Paget's disease express cytokeratins different from those of epidermal cells.
1985
The patterns of expression of cytokeratin polypeptides which are closely correlated to routes of differentiation of epithelial cells were studied in extramammary Paget's disease. Cytokeratins of uninvolved and involved epidermis were analyzed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis of microdissected tissue preparations as well as by immunofluorescence microscopy using cytokeratin antibodies with different specificities. In uninvolved epidermis, cytokeratins Nos. 1, 5, 6, 10, 11, 14, and 16, characteristic of keratinocytes, were found. Epidermis infiltrated by Paget's cells contained the same components and, in addition, cytokeratins Nos. 7, 8, 18, and 19, the latter being characteristic of s…
