Expired Tidal Volume and Respiratory Rate During Postnatal Stabilization of Newborn Infants Born at Term via Cesarean Delivery

2021

Objective To retrieve evolving respiratory measures in the first minutes after birth in normal neonates born at term using a respiratory function monitor. Study design We evaluated newborn babies delivered at term via cesarean after uncomplicated pregnancies. Immediately after birth, a respiratory function monitor with an adapted flowmeter and a face mask were applied at 2, 5, and 10 minutes after birth for 90 seconds in each period. We analyzed expired and inspired tidal volume, respiratory rate (RR), percentage of leakage, and number of analyzed breaths in each individual infant's recording using a respiratory research software. Results A total of 243 infants completed the study. The fina…

Identità e qualità di una scuola. Il valore aggiunto dell’appartenenza a una comunità

2017

Un Istituto scolastico per svolgere efficacemente il suo lavoro educativo, per autovalutarsi e per migliorare il servizio adeguandolo alle esigenze reali degli studenti deve “appartenere” a qualcuno, nel senso che ci deve essere una comunità di riferimento, caratterizzata da ideali condivisi, che veda in quell’istituto scolastico l’espansione dei suoi ideali, cioè che lo consideri lo strumento per rendere partecipi gli alunni della propria cultura affinchè la migliorino e la diffondano a loro volta. Nella Costituzione italiana sono chiaramente espressi i principi morali su cui si basa la convivenza civile nel nostro Paese e che pertanto vanno proposti a tutti i giovani affinchè li interiori…

Effect of Heat on the Adsorption Properties of Silica Gel

2012

Published version of an article in the journal: International Journal of Engineering and Technology. Also available from the publisher at: http://www.ijetch.org/papers/416-T886.pdf Open access. Adsorption properties of silica gel have been attributed to the surface hydroxyl groups of silica gel. Some hydroxyl groups are free standing and called free silanol groups. Some are hydrogen bonded to neighbouring silanol groups. Christy has shown that a high silanol number and a balanced concentration proportionality between these two different types of hydroxyl groups is necessary for effective adsorption of water molecules. Thermal treatment of silica gel samples alters the proportions of these g…

Enhancing the user authentication process with colour memory cues

2022

The authentication process is the first line of defence against potential impostors, and therefore is an important concern when protecting personal and organisational data. Although there are many options to authenticate digital users, passwords remain the most common authentication mechanism. However, with password numbers increasing, many users struggle with remembering multiple passwords, which affects their security behaviour. Previous researchers and practitioners have attempted to suggest ways to improve password memorability and security simultaneously. We introduce novel approach that utilises colour as a memory cue to increase password memorability and security. A longitudinal stud…

Early development of hedonic and motivational aspects of eating behaviour

2015

Eating is essential for survival. However, the newborn is not an autonomous eater, and has to learn ‘how', ‘what', ‘when', and ‘how much' to eat quickly enough to ensure harmonious growth and development. In other nutritional areas, it has been shown during the past 20 years that early experiences are likely to impact long-term health outcomes. Thus, it appears fundamental to understand the early development of hedonic and motivational aspects of eating behaviour. This presentation will describe several studies conducted in our group during the past 10 years, in order to gain more knowledge about the development of what and how much children eat, in relation with food sensory and nutritiona…

Populārās Latvijas personas Instagram vietnē kā viedokļa līderi kosmētikas un modes preču segmentā Latvijas patērētāju starpā 2016.-2017. gadā

2018

Maģistra darba mērķis ir izpētīt sociālajā tīklā Instagram populāro Latvijas iedzīvotāju auditorijas izcelsmi un aktivitāti; noteikt, vai sociālajā tīklā Instagram Latvijas ietekmētāji ir bijuši viedokļu līderi Latvijas iedzīvotājiem vecumā no 18 līdz 35 gadiem modes preču segmentā 2016.-2017.gadā; noteikt faktorus, kas ļauj identificēt un izvērtēt sociālo tīklu ietekmētājus kosmētikas līdzekļu un apģērbu jautājumos. Darbā aplūkotās tādas tēmas kā patēriņa kultūra, demonstratīvs patēriņš, etalongrupas, viedokļu līderi, komunikācija no mutes mutē, sociālo tīklu ietekmētāji un to atlases un novērtēšanas paņēmieni. Tika izmantotas trīs pētījuma metodes – kontentanalīze, daļēji strukturētās int…
