2015
Bakalaura darba tēma - Pēcoperāciju aprūpe un profilakse mugurkaula jostas daļas starpskriemeļu diska trūces sāpju gadījumā L4–S1 segmenta līmenī. Pētījuma problēma ir aktuāla, jo neskatoties uz jauniem medikamentiem, ārstu zināšanām, mūsdienu tehnoloģiju problēma joprojām pastāv un pasliktina pacienta dzīves kvalitāti. Autore veica pētījumu, jo vēlējās uzzināt par starpskriemeļu diska trūces pēcoperāciju aprūpi un profilaksi. Darba mērķis noskaidrot pēcoperāciju aprūpi un profilaksi pacientiem ar mugurkaula jostas daļas starpskriemeļu diska trūci L4–S1 segmenta līmenī. Formulēti 6 pētījuma uzdevumi. Pētījuma jautājums: Kāda pēcoperāciju aprūpe un profilakse nepieciešama pacientiem ar mugur…
La représentation du corps féminin dans Anatomie de l'enfer de Catherine Breillat
2016
Cette étude interrogera, à travers l'exemple du film Anatomie de l'enfer, la manière dont Catherine Breillat, considérée comme l'une des cinéastes les plus controversées de notre époque, met en scène le corps féminin. En réinvestissant certains mythes archaïques tout en jouant avec les codes de la pornographie contemporaine, la réalisatrice de Romance dépeint une féminité aussi torturée que désabusée. Notre analyse mettra en exergue le caractère ambigu de cette représentation du corps féminin perpétuellement ouvert au jeu des interprétations.

Romas katoļu baznīcas bīskapu un priesteru liturģisko tērpu teoloģiskā krāsu un simbolismu nozīme
2019
Darba tēma ir “Romas Katoļu baznīcas bīskapu un priesteru liturģisko tērpu teoloģiskā krāsu un simbolismu nozīme”. Darbā tiek apskatīta liturģisko krāsu nozīme, priesteru un bīskapu liturģiskie tērpi, liturģisko tērpu simbolisms un Vatikāna II koncila dokuments. Darba saturs veido priekšstatu par to, kāda nozīme ir liturģiskajām krāsām, kā tās palīdz uzturēt attiecīgā liturģiskā laika noskaņu un ko tās simbolizē. Kā arī detalizēti izklāsta priesteru un bīskapu liturģiskos tērpus un to simboliku. Tiek veikta izpēte Vatikāna II koncila dokumentā par liturģiskā tērpa izmaiņām. Neliels ieskats Augstajā modē liturģiskajos tērpos.
Electrophysiological correlates of strategic monitoring in event-based and time-based prospective memory
2012
Prospective memory (PM) is the ability to remember to accomplish an action when a particular event occurs (i.e., event-based PM), or at a specific time (i.e., time-based PM) while performing an ongoing activity. Strategic Monitoring is one of the basic cognitive functions supporting PM tasks, and involves two mechanisms: a retrieval mode, which consists of maintaining active the intention in memory; and target checking, engaged for verifying the presence of the PM cue in the environment. The present study is aimed at providing the first evidence of event-related potentials (ERPs) associated with time-based PM, and at examining differences and commonalities in the ERPs related to Strategic M…
Change detection to tone pairs during the first year of life – Predictive longitudinal relationships for EEG-based source and time-frequency measures
2019
Abstract Brain responses related to auditory processing show large changes throughout infancy and childhood with some evidence that the two hemispheres might mature at different rates. Differing rates of hemispheric maturation could be linked to the proposed functional specialization of the hemispheres in which the left auditory cortex engages in analysis of precise timing information whereas the right auditory cortex focuses on analysis of sound frequency. Here the auditory change detection process for rapidly presented tone-pairs was examined in a longitudinal sample of infants at the age of 6 and 12 months using EEG. The ERP response related to change detection of a frequency contrast, i…
Mutations in a new gene, encoding a zinc-finger protein, cause tricho-rhino-phalangeal syndrome type I
1999
Tricho-rhino-phalangeal syndrome type I (TRPS I, MIM 190350) is a malformation syndrome characterized by craniofacial and skeletal abnormalities and is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. TRPS I patients have sparse scalp hair, a bulbous tip of the nose, a long flat philtrum, a thin upper vermilion border and protruding ears. Skeletal abnormalities include cone-shaped epiphyses at the phalanges, hip malformations and short stature. We assigned TRPS1 to human chromosome 8q24. It maps proximal of EXT1, which is affected in a subgroup of patients with multiple cartilaginous exostoses and deleted in all patients with TRPS type II (TRPS II, or Langer-Giedion syndrome, MIM 150230; ref.2-5)…
Dysynchiria is not a common feature of neuropathic pain
2006
Patients with chronic neuropathic pain (non-CRPS) and brush-evoked allodynia watched a reflected image of their corresponding but opposite skin region being brushed in a mirror. Unlike complex regional pain syndrome Type 1, this process did not evoke any sensation at the affected area ('dysynchiria'). We conclude that central nociceptive sensitisation alone is not sufficient to cause dysynchiria in neuropathic pain. The results imply a difference in cortical pain processing between complex regional pain syndrome and other chronic neuropathic pain.
Mathematical models for the diffusion magnetic resonance signal abnormality in patients with prion diseases
2014
In clinical practice signal hyperintensity in the cortex and/or in the striatum on magnetic resonance (MR) diffusion-weighted images (DWIs) is a marker of sporadic Creutzfeldt–Jakob Disease (sCJD). MR diagnostic accuracy is greater than 90%, but the biophysical mechanisms underpinning the signal abnormality are unknown. The aim of this prospective study is to combine an advanced DWI protocol with new mathematical models of the microstructural changes occurring in prion disease patients to investigate the cause of MR signal alterations. This underpins the later development of more sensitive and specific image-based biomarkers. DWI data with a wide a range of echo times and diffusion weightin…
Validation of proposed diagnostic criteria (the "Budapest Criteria") for Complex Regional Pain Syndrome
2010
Current IASP diagnostic criteria for CRPS have low specificity, potentially leading to overdiagnosis. This validation study compared current IASP diagnostic criteria for CRPS to proposed new diagnostic criteria (the "Budapest Criteria") regarding diagnostic accuracy. Structured evaluations of CRPS-related signs and symptoms were conducted in 113 CRPS-I and 47 non-CRPS neuropathic pain patients. Discriminating between diagnostic groups based on presence of signs or symptoms meeting IASP criteria showed high diagnostic sensitivity (1.00), but poor specificity (0.41), replicating prior work. In comparison, the Budapest clinical criteria retained the exceptional sensitivity of the IASP criteria…
