Laulunopetuksen psyykkisistä vaikutuksista : opetuksen kriittisiä tekijöitä ja terapeuttisia piirteitä
2015
Tutkimuksessa tarkasteltiin laulunopetuksen tuntitapahtumia psyykkisten ilmiöiden näkökulmasta ja pyrittiin selvittämään millaisia kriittisiä ja terapeuttisia tekijöitä laulunopetus sisältää. Tätä tutkittiin laulunopiskelijoille lähetetyllä sähköisellä kyselyllä, joka sisälsi sekä monivalintakysymyksiä että avoimia kysymyksiä. Kysymyksillä pyrittiin selvittämään mitä opiskelijat mielsivät sisältyvän hyvään laulutuntiin ja laulunopettajaan. Myös opettajien näkökulma tuotiin esiin kolmessa haastattelussa, joissa kysyttiin opettajien mielipiteitä hyvän laulutunnin edellytyksistä, onnistuneen opettaja-oppilassuhteen edellytyksistä, opetuksen tyypillisimmistä kipupisteistä sekä opettavimmista ja…
Anti-senescence and Anti-inflammatory Effects of the C-terminal Moiety of PTHrP Peptides in OA Osteoblasts.
2016
Osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized by degenerative changes in the whole joint leading to physical disability in the elderly population. This condition is associated with altered bone metabolism in subchondral areas suggesting that therapeutic strategies aimed at modifying bone cell metabolism may be of interest. We have investigated the effects of several parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP)-derived peptides (1-37): (N-terminal), (107-111) and (107-139) (C-terminal) on senescence features induced by inflammatory stress in human OA osteoblasts. Incubation of these primary cells with interleukin(IL)-1β led to an increased expression of senescence markers senescence-associated-β-galac…
THU0713 How the variation in the lumbopelvic patterns of movement affects the neuromotor control of the biceps femoris during trunk forward bending
2017
Background Trunk forward bending is one of the most common activities in daily living; it is a two-part movement involving the lumbar spine flexion and pelvis rotation at hip joint. The pattern of movement during forward bending was defined as the relative contribution of the lumbar spine to pelvis motion, and was expressed as the ratio between the ranges of lumbar spine motion to pelvis motion (L/P), which, calculated at certain degrees of trunk flexion during the entire movement, provides the lumbo-pelvic rhythm. This is associated with a specific pattern of activation for back and hip extensor muscles which was coined as flexion relaxation phenomenon, observed either in the erector spina…
EFFECTS OF STRIKING STRATEGY ON LOWER EXTREMITY LOADING DURING RUNNING
2013
Backround It is expected that every second runner has a running-related overuse injury each year. The knee joint and Achilles tendon are the most commonly injured sites covering both about one fifth of all running related injuries. 1 Runners can be categorized into rearfoot strikers, mid-foot strikers or forefoot strikers based on the landing strategy at the instant of initial ground contact. Forefoot or mid-foot striking has been shown to reduce impact peak and loading rate of the ground reaction force during early stance phase. 2 Furthermore, the finding of the recent study suggest that forefoot striking may potentially decrease the risk of running-related injuries. 3 However, the effect …
Comparison of the acute effects of anti-TNF-alpha drugs on a uveitis experimental model.
2010
To compare histopathological and biochemical effects of the anti-TNF-alpha drugs adalimumab and infliximab in a uveitis experimental model.Histopathological evaluation was performed 24 h after endotoxin (200 microg into the footpad) and drug administration, as well as biochemical analysis of oxidative stress-related markers in the aqueous humor.Severe inflammation was found in rat anterior chamber of the eye 24 h after endotoxin. Only infliximab administration partially prevented the endotoxin-induced disruption of the blood-aqueous barrier, as well as the increase in Rantes and MCP-1 concentration in aqueous humor. Both drugs ameliorated the histopathological score after endotoxin. Biochem…
Assessment of the tibia using ultrasonic guided waves in pubertal girls
2002
The purpose of this study was to compare low frequency ultrasonic guided wave measurements with established ultrasound and bone density measurements in terms of their ability to characterize the tibia in pubertal girls. Subjects were 12-14-year-old girls ( n=106) who were participating in a calcium and vitamin D intervention study. A prototype low frequency pulse transmission device consisting of a uniaxial scanning mechanism and low frequency transducers orientated perpendicularly to the limb was used to measure two ultrasound velocities in the tibia. The first velocity, V1, was that of the first arriving signal, similar to that measured by existing commercial tibial ultrasound devices. Th…
