Valeur de l’IRM de diffusion pour caractériser les petites masses rénales (< 3cm)
2012
Objectifs: Décrire l’aspect des masses rénales (< 3cm) en imagerie de diffusion et déterminer le rôle de l’ADC pour la différentiation entre lésion maligne et bénigne. Matériels et méthodes: 47 tumeurs rénales < 3cm (23 malignes, 24 bénignes) furent explorées en IRM 3T incluant en sus du protocole habituel une séquence de diffusion (b1000). Une analyse rétrospective qualitative et quantitative (ADC) fut réalisée avec corrélation anatomopathologique et tests statistiques pour déterminer l’efficacité de la valeur d’ADC pour caractériser la lésion. Résultats: En diffusion, toutes les masses étaient hyperintenses au parenchyme sain. L’ADC moyen des CC RCC était supérieur à celui des angiomyolip…
The acute effects of massage on muscle tone and perceived recovery
2008
Haakana, Piia 2008. The acute effects of massage on muscle tone and perceived recovery. Department of biology of physical activity, University of Jyväskylä. Bachelor’s thesis. 47 pp. The physiological effects of massage have been controversial in previous studies. There is one previous study on effects of massage on muscle tone but there were no effects during one month intervention. The purpose of this study was to determine the correlations between subcutaneous tissue and rectus femoris muscle thickness and muscle tone. The differences on muscle tone between groups that received massage immediately or one day after the resistance training were examined. The effects of massage on perceived…
Effect of Gold(I) on the Room-Temperature Phosphorescence of Ethynylphenanthrene.
2020
The synthesis of two series of gold(I) complexes containing the general formulae PR 3 ‐Au‐C≡C‐phenanthrene (PR 3 = PPh 3 ( 1a / 2a ), PMe 3 ( 1b / 2b ), PNaph 3 ( 1c / 2c )) or (diphos)(Au‐C≡C‐phenanthrene) 2 (diphos = 1,1‐ bis (diphenylphosphino)methane, dppm ( 1d / 2d ); 1,4‐ bis (diphenylphosphino)butane, dppb ( 1e / 2e )) have been synthesized. The two series differ on the position of the alkynyl substituent on the phenanthrene chromophore, being at the 9‐position (9‐ethynylphenanthrene) for the L1 ‐series and at the 2‐position (2‐ethynylphenanthrene) for the L2 ‐series. The compounds have been fully characterized by 1 H and 31 P NMR and IR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and single cry…
Degradation of an alkaloid pheromone from the pale-brown chafer, Phyllopertha diversa (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae), by an insect olfactory cytochrome P…
1999
AbstractThe pale-brown chafer, Phyllopertha diversa, utilizes an unusual alkaloid, 1,3-dimethyl-2,4-(1H,3H)-quinazolinedione, as its sex pheromone. This compound is rapidly degraded in vitro by the antennal protein extracts from this scarab beetle. Demethylation at the N-1 position and hydroxylation of the aromatic ring have been identified as the major catabolic pathways. The enzyme responsible for the pheromone degradation is membrane-bound, requires NAD(P)H for activity and is sensitive to cytochrome P450 inhibitors, such as proadifen and metyrapone. The ability to metabolize this unusual pheromone was not detected in 12 species tested, indicating that the P450 system, specific to male P…
Subjective stress, objective heart rate variability-based stress, and recovery on workdays among overweight and psychologically distressed individual…
2015
Background: The present study aimed to investigate how subjective self-reported stress is associated with objective heart rate variability (HRV)-based stress and recovery on workdays. Another aim was to investigate how physical activity (PA), body composition, and age are associated with subjective stress, objective stress, and recovery. Methods: Working-age participants (n = 221; 185 women, 36 men) in this cross-sectional study were overweight (body mass index, 25.3-40.1 kg/m(2)) and psychologically distressed (>= 3/12 points on the General Health Questionnaire). Objective stress and recovery were based on HRV recordings over 1-3 workdays. Subjective stress was assessed by the Perceived St…
Effect of Sex, Body Mass Index and Physical Activity Level on Peak Oxygen Uptake Among 14–19 Years Old Adolescents
2020
The aim was to describe longitudinal trends in peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak) among 14- to 19-year-old adolescents in Norway, and to examine effects of sex, body mass index (BMI), and physical activity (PA) level on VO2peak during adolescence. Of 124 invited students from two lower secondary schools in Norway, 116 eighth-grade students (61 boys and 55 girls; 14 years old at baseline) volunteered to participate. The study has a longitudinal design with 6 yearly repeated measures of body height and mass, VO2peak and PA level. VO2peak allometrically scaled to body mass raised to the power of 0.67 was measured using a walking or running incremental test on a treadmill, whereas PA level was self-r…

Tiellä kohti uusien energiateknologioiden kaupallistumista : eri toimijoiden näkemyksiä puubiomassaa polttoaineenaan käyttävien pien- ja mikro-kokolu…
2011
Tässä laadullisessa tutkimuksessa selvitettiin puubiomassaa polttoaineenaan käyttävien pien- ja mikro-kokoluokan CHP-teknologioiden innovaatioprosessiin, erityisesti kaupallistamiseen ja markkinoilla yleistymiseen, liittyviä edistämistekijöitä ja esteitä. Tutkimusaineisto koottiin haastattelemalla 10 eri toimijaa, jotka edustivat kattila- ja laitevalmistajia, korkeakouluja, tutkimuslaitoksia, julkisia rahoittajia sekä kehitysyhtiöitä. Haastateltavilta kysyttiin heidän näkemyksiään tarkasteltavien energiateknologioiden innovaatioprosessiin vaikuttavista edistämistekijöistä ja esteistä viidestä eri näkökulmasta: poliittisesta, taloudellisesta, sosiaalisesta, teknologisesta ja ympäristötekijöi…

Reliģiski-filozofiski raksti XXXII ir par telpas pieredzēšanu: par to, kā mēs izdzīvojam sevi vietā, kurā esam, un kā mēs izjūtam sevi šajā savā vietā vai vietā, kura tā arī nav kļuvusi vai nekad nebūtu varējusi kļūt par mūsu dzīves pasauli. Kā veidojas šī savas vietas izjūta? Vai vieta, kurā mēs dzīvojam, vienmēr ir mājas? Vai šo vietas izjūtu veido mūsu individuālā pieredze vai varbūt tā ir vairāk atkarīga no kādām kolektīvām prasībām? Varbūt to nosaka mūsu piederība tradīcijām, kurās esam audzināti un kuras arī saucam par savām, bet varbūt tieši mūsu vietas pieredze ir tā, kas nosaka to, kādai tradīcijai mēs izvēlamies piederēt vai kuras veidošanā piedalāmies? Par tradīcijas iesakņošanos…
