Liiketoimintatiedon hallinnan soveltuvuus urheiluorganisaation käyttöön : case AKK Sports Oy
2016
Nykyisessä tietoyhteiskunnassa johtamisen roolin tulisi perustua aiempaa enemmän liiketoimintatietoon, joka on systemaattisempaa ja ennakoivampaa kuin ennen. Tietotarpeiden määrittäminen ja tunnistaminen toimii lähtökohta- na tiedolla johtamisen prosesseissa ja tehokkaan liiketoimintatiedon hallinnan hyödyntämisessä. Liiketoimintatiedon hallinta on toimintaa, jonka avulla orga- nisaatio kerää, analysoi, jakaa ja hyödyntää oman toimintansa kannalta merkit- tävää liiketoimintatietoa. Kypsyysmallien tarkoitus on tuottaa organisaatiosta analyyttinen arviointi, joka toimii tukipilarina organisaation kehittymisproses- sissa. Kypsyysmalleja käytetään kuvaamaan, selittämään ja arvioimaan organi- sa…
Life-history traits, abiotic environment and coexistence: The case of two cryptic rotifer species
2015
Abstract Trade-offs are important in life-history evolution and coexistence of competitors. However, how alternative life-history optima might promote competitor coexistence has received little attention. The rotifers Brachionus plicatilis and Brachionus manjavacas are two cryptic species with a considerable ecological overlap in relation to biotic factors. These species often co-occur in temporal brackish ponds characterised by environmental fluctuations. In these rotifers, sexual reproduction results in diapausing stages, which are able to survive through adverse conditions but constrain current population growth. In the present work, the differential responses of both cryptic rotifer spe…
Renewable polyol obtained by microwave-assisted alcoholysis of epoxidized soybean oil: Preparation, thermal properties and relaxation process
2019
[EN] The soybean oil polyol (SOP) use as feedstock in the polyurethane industry has been recently emphasized due to its excellent resistance to hydrolysis, which is also applicable in coatings and thermal insulation. In this article, the SOP was obtained by a very fast microwave-assisted alcoholysis of epoxidized soybean oil (ESO). The preparation method, thermal properties, and relaxation process were evaluated. High yields as opening and consumption epoxy group and selectivity of 99.8 mol%, 985 mol%, and 71.2 mol% were obtained. Through titrations, nuclear magnetic resonance and gel permeation chromatography were identified parameters as 0.32 mg KOH.g(-1) acid number, 190 mg KOH.g(-1) hyd…
Nabycie nieruchomości od podmiotu niewypłacalnego lub zagrożonego niewypłacalnością ‒ zagadnienia dotyczące terminów zaskarżania nabycia nieruchomości
2022
Dłużnik zagrożony niewypłacalnością często zbywa lub obciąża wartościowe składniki swego majątku. W ten sposób może doprowadzić do niemożliwości zaspokojenia wierzycieli. Przy spełnieniu określonych przesłanek wierzyciele mogą zaskarżyć czynności prawne dłużnika z wykorzystaniem skargi pauliańskiej (art. 527 i n. k.c.). W przypadku ogłoszenia upadłości dłużnika prawo zaskarżenia czynności dotyczącej pokrzywdzenia wierzycieli masy upadłości realizuje syndyk masy upadłości. Nabywca nieruchomości winien mieć świadomość ryzyka, jakie wiąże się z nabyciem nieruchomości od podmiotu niewypłacalnego albo zagrożonego niewypłacalnością. Ocena ryzyko winna uwzględniać sankcję bezskuteczności względnej…
The action of estrogens and progestogens in the young female breast
2018
Evidence from different sources sustains a pro-oncogenic role of hormones, estrogens and progestogens, on the breast. The issue is of interest for young women, who are exposed to the hormonal changes imposed by the ovarian cycle and, often, take hormones with contraceptive purposes. Experimental and clinical studies show that both estrogens and progesterone are involved in mammary development during puberty and lactation, the changes being observed across mammalian species, including humans. Estrogen receptors, and more particularly the alpha isoform, participate in molecular processes of stem cells differentiation and epithelial proliferation through paracrine actions implicating growth fa…
25-hydroxy vitamin D levels in healthy premenopausal women: Association with bone turnover markers and bone mineral density
2008
Abstract Background Vitamin D deficiency is very common in elderly people while there are very few reports on its incidence, determinants and metabolic consequences in young subjects. Results In 608 young healthy premenopausal women participating in the BONTURNO study, levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] below 20 ng/ml were found in almost a third of the women. Its levels were inversely ( P 2 ) and directly with sunlight exposure during the summer time, and latitude: i.e. the higher the latitude over Italy, the higher the 25(OH)D level. In women on contraceptive pill the mean 25(OH)D level was significantly increased even when the data were adjusted for age, BMI and sun exposure. 25(OH)…
Age at menopause predicts age at onset of Parkinson's disease.
2006
We investigated the association between age at onset of Parkinson's disease (PD) and fertile life characteristics in 145 women. Linear regression analyses showed a significant correlation between age at PD onset and age at menopause (P = 0.003), between age at PD onset and fertile life duration (P = 0.008), and a nonsignificant correlation between PD onset and cumulative duration of pregnancies (P = 0.23). These results support the possible role of estrogens in PD.
The influence of apo E phenotypes on the plasma triglycerides response to hormonal replacement therapy during the menopause
2001
Objective: To study the influence of apo E phenotype in plasma lipids, especially in triglycerides levels, in menopausal women receiving hormonal replacement therapy (HRT). Methods: One hundred and ten postmenopausal women were studied. Plasma total cholesterol (TC), HDL-C and triglycerides (TG) were measured before and after 3 months of HRT and the apo E phenotype was determined. According to the apo E phenotype the sample was divided into three groups: E2/E3 (n=28), E3/E3 (n=96) and E4/E3 (n=25). Results: In the pre-treatment state, higher plasma levels of TC and TC/HDL-C ratio were observed in women with phenotype E3/E4 (P<0.0001 and P<0.02, respectively), while higher plasma TG levels w…
Serum osteocalcin is not associated with glucose but is inversely associated with leptin across generations of nondiabetic women.
2012
The skeleton is recognized as an important player in energy metabolism through its interactions with other tissues. Whether the association of osteocalcin with glucose metabolism is age dependent has not been fully addressed.The objective of the study was to examine the age-specific association between different forms of osteocalcin and glucose and adipokines.This was a family-based study across three generations.The study was conducted at a university laboratory.Sixty-four daughter-premenopausal mother-maternal grandmother trios participated in the study.Fasting plasma glucose and insulin concentrations, serum total (tOC), carboxylated (cOC), and uncarboxylated (ucOC = tOC - cOC) osteocalc…
