Toimintaterapeuttien ja vanhempien yhteistyö toimintaterapiassa lapsille, joilla on CP-oireisto
2017
Tutkimuksessa selvitettiin toimintaterapeuttien ja vanhempien välistä yhteistyötä Kelan järjestämässä vaikeavammaisten kuntoutuksessa lapsille, joilla oli CP-oireisto. Tutkimuksessa käytettiin aineistoa, joka oli kerätty Kelan kuntoutuksen avopalveluja tuottaneilta toimintaterapeuteilta vuosina 2008–2009. Aineisto kerättiin The Measure of Processes of Care for Service Providers -itsearviointimittarilla (MPOC-SP), jolla kysyttiin palveluntuottajilta, kuinka paljon he olivat toteuttaneet asiakaslähtöisiä toimintatapoja yhteistyössään lasten vanhempien kanssa. Tämän tutkimuksen aineisto analysoitiin SPSS-ohjelmalla. Tutkimuksen tuloksina oli, että lasta kuntouttavista toimintaterapeuteista 92 …

The “unnatural” history of colorectal cancer in Lynch syndrome : lessons from colonoscopy surveillance
2021
Individuals with Lynch syndrome (LS), one of the most common inherited cancer syndromes, are at increased risk of developing malignancies, in particular colorectal cancer (CRC). Regular colonoscopy with polypectomy is recommended to reduce CRC risk in LS individuals. However, recent independent studies demonstrated that a substantial proportion of LS individuals develop CRC despite regular colonoscopy. The reasons for this surprising observation confirmed by large prospective studies are a matter of debate. In this review, we collect existing evidence from clinical, epidemiological and molecular studies and interpret them with regard to the origins and progression of LS-associated CRC. Alon…
Type I keratin cDNAs from the rainbow trout: independent radiation of keratins in fish
2002
Five different type I keratins from a teleost fish, the rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss, have been sequenced by cDNA cloning and identified at the protein level by peptide mass mapping using MALDI-MS. This showed that the entire range of type I keratins detected biochemically in this fish has now been sequenced. Three of the keratins are expressed in the epidermis (subtype Ie), whereas the other two occur in simple epithelia and mesenchymal cells (subtype Is). Among the Is keratins is an ortholog of human K18; the second Is polypeptide is clearly distinct from K18. We raised a new monoclonal antibody (F1F2, subclass IgG1) that specifically recognizes trout Is keratins, with negative react…
Cancer Prevention with Resistant Starch in Lynch Syndrome Patients in the CAPP2-Randomized Placebo Controlled Trial : Planned 10-Year Follow-up
2022
Abstract The CAPP2 trial investigated the long-term effects of aspirin and resistant starch on cancer incidence in patients with Lynch syndrome (LS). Participants with LS were randomized double-blind to 30 g resistant starch (RS) daily or placebo for up to 4 years. We present long-term cancer outcomes based on the planned 10-year follow-up from recruitment, supplemented by National Cancer Registry data to 20 years in England, Wales, and Finland. Overall, 463 participants received RS and 455 participants received placebo. After up to 20 years follow-up, there was no difference in colorectal cancer incidence (n = 52 diagnosed with colorectal cancer among those randomized to RS against n = 53…
Epidemiological, clinical and molecular characterization of Lynch‐like syndrome: A population‐based study
2019
Colorectal carcinomas that are mismatch repair (MMR)‐deficient in the absence of MLH1 promoter methylation or germline mutations represent Lynch‐like syndrome (LLS). Double somatic events inactivating MMR genes are involved in the etiology of LLS tumors. Our purpose was to define the clinical and broader molecular hallmarks of LLS tumors and the population incidence of LLS, which remain poorly characterized. We investigated 762 consecutive colorectal carcinomas operated in Central Finland in 2000–2010. LLS cases were identified by a stepwise protocol based on MMR protein expression, MLH1 methylation and MMR gene mutation status. LLS tumors were profiled for CpG Island Methylator Phenotype (…
Factors associated with decision-making on prophylactic hysterectomy and attitudes towards gynecological surveillance among women with Lynch syndrome…
2020
AbstractTo prevent endometrial carcinoma in Lynch syndrome (LS), regular gynecological surveillance visits and prophylactic surgery are recommended. Previous data have shown that prophylactic hysterectomy is an effective means of cancer prevention, while the advantages and disadvantages of surveillance are somewhat unclear. We aimed to evaluate female LS carriers’ attitudes towards regular gynecological surveillance and factors influencing their decision-making on prophylactic surgery that have not been well documented. Pain experienced during endometrial biopsies was also evaluated. Postal questionnaires were sent to LS carriers undergoing regular gynecological surveillance. Questionnaires…
Laboratory Measurements of Flow and Turbulence in Discontinuous Distributions of Ligulate Seagrass
2007
Turbulent flow characteristics were investigated in laboratory flume studies of a ligulate plant canopy interrupted by a gap representing discontinuities observed in seagrass prairies. The reliability of velocity measurements obtained using an acoustic Doppler velocimeter within the canopy was shown using specifically designed experiments. In relatively fast flow (mean velocity 5.5 cm s−1), the mean flow profile was logarithmic above the canopy, had an inflection point near its top, and uniformly low values within it. Within the gap, a recirculation cell formed. Reynolds stress maxima were approximately coincident with the mean flow inflection point. Quadrant analysis revealed an ejection-d…
Exercise intervention protocol in children and young adults with cerebral palsy : the effects of strength, flexibility and gait training on physical …
2021
Abstract Background Individuals with cerebral palsy (CP) have problems in everyday tasks such as walking and climbing stairs due to a combination of neuromuscular impairments such as spasticity, muscle weakness, reduced joint flexibility and poor coordination. Development of evidence-based interventions are in pivotal role in the development of better targeted rehabilitation of CP, and thus in maintaining their motor function and wellbeing. Our aim is to investigate the efficacy of an individually tailored, multifaceted exercise intervention (EXECP) in children and young adults with CP. EXECP is composed of strength, flexibility and gait training. Furthermore, this study aims to verify the …
Carrera profesional del maestro de obras del rey en el Reino de Valencia en época de los en la época de los Austrias: la sucesión al cargo que ocupó …
2009
El maestro de obras reales en el Reino de Valencia se ocupó de la supervisión de los trabajos en los bienes inmuebles del patrimonio regio, que incluía arquitectura e ingeniería civil, militar e hidráulica. Presentamos el informe enviado por el virrey en 1622 sobre los tres candidatos al cargo: Antonio Picó, Jerónimo Negret y Francisco Arboreda (o Arboleda). Resulta especialmente interesante la información sobre este último, que lo ocupó hasta 1636, pues en la exposición de méritos, por un lado, ofrece información sobre las obras realizadas por sus ancestros, Joan Arboreda, que identificamos con el Joan Navarro que ocupó el mismo cargo en las décadas centrales del siglo XVI, y Jerónimo Arbo…
