Lapsettomuustutkimuksiin hakeutuvien naisten näkemyksiä painonhallinnan, ravitsemuksen ja liikunnan vaikutuksesta hedelmällisyyteen
2016
Terhi Kemilä (2016). Lapsettomuustutkimuksiin hakeutuvien naisten näkemyksiä painonhallinnan, ravitsemuksen ja liikunnan vaikutuksesta hedelmällisyyteen. Terveystieteiden laitos, Jyväskylän yliopisto, Terveyskasvatuksen pro gradu -tutkielma, 40 s., 3 liitettä. Lapsettomuuden on arvioitu yleistyneen viime vuosikymmeninä, Suomessa lapsettomuushoitoihin hakeutuvien määrä on ollut hienoisessa nousussa. Elintapojen vaikutusta hedelmällisyyteen on tutkittu laajasti ja tiedetään, että yli- ja alipaino, ravitsemus sekä liikunta vaikuttavat naisten hedelmällisyyteen. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää lapsettomuustutkimuksiin hakeutuvien naisten näkemyksiä elintapojen vaikutuksesta hedelm…
Periodisme i literatura : Aurora Bertrana
2008
Aquest article s'inscriu dins del projecte Concepcions i discursos sobre la modernitat en la literatura catalana dels segles XIX i XX, del Grup d'Estudis de Literatura Catalana Contemporània de la Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (referència HUM2005-01109 del MEC), i neix de dos estudis anteriors (Real 2006a i 2006b), als quals remeto per a una explicació més detallada tant amb relació a Bertrana com al context cultural del moment, en especial pel que fa a la literatura d'autora.

Metalloproteinases and Tissue Inhibitors in Generalized Myasthenia Gravis. A Preliminary Study
2022
Introduction: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) have recently been proposed as promising biomarkers in different immune-mediated disorders. We evaluated the plasma levels of MMP-9 and MMP-2 and their tissue inhibitors TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 in a patients’ cohort with generalized myasthenia gravis (MG). Methods: Plasma concentrations of MMP-9, MMP-2, TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 were evaluated in 14 patients with generalized MG and 13 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. The severity of disease was assessed by the modified Osserman classification. Results: Compared to the healthy subjects, MG patients had increased plasma concentrations of MMP-9, but redu…

Increasing the Astrophysical Reach of the Advanced Virgo Detector via the Application of Squeezed Vacuum States of Light
2019
Current interferometric gravitational-wave detectors are limited by quantum noise over a wide range of their measurement bandwidth. One method to overcome the quantum limit is the injection of squeezed vacuum states of light into the interferometer's dark port. Here, we report on the successful application of this quantum technology to improve the shot noise limited sensitivity of the Advanced Virgo gravitational-wave detector. A sensitivity enhancement of up to 3.2±0.1 dB beyond the shot noise limit is achieved. This nonclassical improvement corresponds to a 5%-8% increase of the binary neutron star horizon. The squeezing injection was fully automated and over the first 5 months of the thi…

The advanced Virgo longitudinal control system for the O2 observing run
2020
Following a successful period of data-taking between 2006 and 2011, the Virgo gravitational-wave detector was taken offline for a major upgrade. The changes made to the instrument significantly increased the complexity of the control systems and meant that an extended period of commissioning was required to reach a sensitivity appropriate for science data-taking. This commissioning period was completed in July of 2017 and the second-generation Advanced Virgo detector went on to join the Advanced LIGO detectors in the O2 science run in August of the same year. The upgraded detector was approximately twice as sensitive to binary neutron star mergers as the first-generation instrument. During …
GW170817: Observation of Gravitational Waves from a Binary Neutron Star Inspiral
2017
On August 17, 2017 at 12-41:04 UTC the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo gravitational-wave detectors made their first observation of a binary neutron star inspiral. The signal, GW170817, was detected with a combined signal-to-noise ratio of 32.4 and a false-alarm-rate estimate of less than one per 8.0×104 years. We infer the component masses of the binary to be between 0.86 and 2.26 M, in agreement with masses of known neutron stars. Restricting the component spins to the range inferred in binary neutron stars, we find the component masses to be in the range 1.17-1.60 M, with the total mass of the system 2.74-0.01+0.04M. The source was localized within a sky region of 28 deg2 (90% probabili…
