The Diagnosis of Disease by Element Analysis
1988
The elemental composition of the human body images in principle the elements of the periodic system. In the literature, about 80 elements are reported to occur in the human body and the number is expected to increase by the introduction of methods more sensitive in detection. The elemental composition in reference man as published (1) is summarized in tab. 1. From the major elements in reference man, the determination of the elements nitrogen, calcium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, chlorine and magnesium are of importance for the diagnosis of diseases. The importance of the element determination for the diagnosis of diseases is also documented by the numbers of element determinations done …
Binge ethanol drinking during adolescence modifies cocaine responses in mice
2016
Binge ethanol drinking is an emerging pattern of excessive consumption among adolescents and young adults. Repeated ethanol intoxication has negative consequences during critical periods of brain development. Therefore, binge ethanol intake represents a vulnerability factor that promotes subsequent manifestations of neuropsychiatric disorders. In this study, we investigated the effects of oral binge ethanol intake during adolescence on the subsequent effects of cocaine in C57BL/6 mice. Firstly, we evaluated the oral ethanol intake of two binge ethanol procedures with different ethanol concentrations (20% v/v versus 30%, v/v). The highest ethanol intake was found in mice exposed to the lowe…
Explanatory Psychological Factors of Inconsistently Condom Use among Spanish University Students: Gender Differences
2020
Abstract More than 50% of Spanish youth does not use of condoms correctly and consistently. University students are a particular population at high risk of the HIV infection, other STIs and unwanted pregnancies. The influence of psychological variables in using of condom is analyzed by gender and type of sexual relationship. A total of 256 females and 168 males were assessed (Mage= 20.62; SD = 2.16). A regression logistic analysis showed that sexual sensation seeking appears as an explanatory variable of inconsistently condom use in both females and males in vaginal intercourse, steady relationship intercourse and sex under the alcohol and other drugs effects (adjusted odds ratio between 1.…
Dzelzceļa letālo traumu rašanās mehānismi un morfoloģija
2020
Ievads: Visā pasaulē viens no noteicošajiem faktoriem, spriežot par valsts labklājību, ir konkrētas pilsētas un valsts transporta sistēmas iespējas. Latvijā pēdējā laikā ātri attīstās un pilnveidojas sliežu transporta iespējas, līdz ar to dzelzceļa transportlīdzekļu radīto traumu risks var pieaugt. Latvijā dzelzceļā iegūtas traumas atrodas otrajā vietā aiz autotraumām transporta traumu grupā. Periodā no 01.01.2010 līdz 01.01.2019 Rīgās, Rīgas rajona, Ogres un Jūrmalas teritorijā tika reģīstrētas 94 uz dzelzceļā iegūtas traumas ar letālo iznākumu. Darba mērķi: Noteikt dzelzceļa letālo traumu ietekmējošos riska faktorus traumas gūšanas brīdī; noteikt dzimuma un vecuma grupu sadalījumu dzelzce…
