Superhuman Cognitions, Fourth Dimension and Speculative Comics Narrative : Panel Repetition in Watchmen and From Hell
2016
Abstract: This article investigates the use of repeating panels in relation to speculative fiction storytelling in graphic novels Watchmen and From Hell , written by Alan Moore and illustrated by Dave Gibbons and Eddie Campbell, respectively. Presenting the same panel several times over the course of the narrative is an expressive medium-specific narrative technique available only to comics. In the discussed graphic novels, panel repetition is used to represent the superhuman cognitions of the quantum powered superhero Dr. Manhattan, as well as the magical experiences of Sir William Gull, the homicidal madman behind the brutal Jack the Ripper murders in Victorian London. Both characters hav…

Nähdyksi, kuulluksi ja ymmärretyksi tuleminen rakentaa resilienssiä varhaisnuoruudessa
2023
• Valtaosa varhaisnuorista voi hyvin, mutta eriarvoistumiskehitys ja haavoittuvuustilanteiden kasautuminen muodostavat kasvavan yhteiskunnallisen haasteen. • Väitöstutkimukseni punaisena lankana kulkee ymmärrys haavoittuvuuden ja resilienssin rakentumisesta vuorovaikutuksessa ja ihmissuhteissa. • Vanhemman luottamus kykyynsä selviytyä vanhemmuuden haasteista ja se, ettei hän koe jäävänsä yksin, heijastuu myönteisesti varhaisnuoren valmiuksiin solmia ja ylläpitää merkityksellisiä ihmissuhteita. • Oppilaan tarpeisiin joustavasti sovitettu tunnetuki vahvistaa sinnikkyyttä ja myönteisyyttä oppimisessa. • Haavoittuvuustilanteiden ennaltaehkäisemiseksi ja lievittämiseksi tarvitaan ymmärrystä ja r…
Variation in mortality among populations is higher for pymetrozine than for imidacloprid and spiromesifen in Trialeurodes vaporariorum in greenhouses…
2014
Abstract. BACKGROUND: Insecticide resistance in Trialeurodes vaporariorum W. is unknown in the species’ northern distribution range where it inhabits mainly commercial greenhouses. Resistance development in whiteflies feeding on year-round crops in greenhouses is possible due to use of chemical treatments to back up biocontrol. We tested the response levels to spiromesifen, pymetrozine and imidacloprid in whiteflies collected from seven greenhouses within a 35 km radius in Western Finland. RESULTS: All except one (PR) population had LC50 values below the recommended concentrations for the tested compounds. However, some populations showed reduced susceptibility to pymetrozine in comparison …
Efficiency of COVID-19 Testing Centers in Iran: A Data Envelopment Analysis Approach
2022
AbstractObjective:The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficiency of the Iranian Red Crescent Society (IRCS) in managing their nonmonetary resources involved in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) response.Methods:For this purpose, the data envelopment analysis approach was used to measure the efficiency, considering the number of personnel and vehicles and screened passengers as the input and output parameters, respectively. It was examined the efficiency of 10 IRCS’s branches given 17 d of screening operation. For the analysis, the DEA SolverPro software 15a version was used.Results:The results show that only 1 branch had been fully efficient in using the resources, while 5 bra…
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…
Antioxidant Effects of Dietary Supplements on Adult COVID-19 Patients: Why Do We Not Also Use Them in Children?
2022
Respiratory tract infections (RTIs) are very common in children, especially in the first five years of life, and several viruses, such as the influenza virus, Respiratory Syncytial Virus, and Rhinovirus, are triggers for symptoms that usually affect the upper airways. It has been known that during respiratory viral infections, a condition of oxidative stress (OS) occurs, and many studies have suggested the potential use of antioxidants as complementary components in prophylaxis and/or therapy of respiratory viral infections. Preliminary data have demonstrated that antioxidants may also interfere with the new coronavirus 2’s entry and replication in human cells, and that they have a role in …
Towards an International Economic Security Regime for Alternative Development in Illicit Drug Producing Countries: Exploring International Support fo…
2013
Esta investigación explora la estrategia de la reducción de la oferta dentro del contexto del fenómeno global de las drogas ilícitas. Tiene un enfoque especial en las políticas nacionales e internacionales del desarrollo alternativo y de comercio que pretenden reducir la oferta de plantas narcóticas, drogas y sustancias psicotrópicas a través de políticas de desarrollo económico en países productores. El argumento central de la investigación es que se podría considerar Colombia como un punto de referencia para establecer un régimen internacional eficaz de apoyo transfronterizo para estrategias de desarrollo alternativo para abordar la oferta de drogas ilícitas por el mundo. Este régimen -un…

2022
Vivimos un momento histórico: la sostenibilidad del Ser Humano y el equilibrio medioambiental están amenazados. La sociedad global se enfrenta a retos sin precedentes, como la persistencia de la pobreza, los grandes movimientos migratorios, el agotamiento de los recursos naturales o el cambio climático. La Agenda 2030 de Naciones Unidas, con sus 17 Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible, es el mayor acuerdo internacional de la Historia, y pretende dar solución a estos grandes retos globales y alcanzar un modelo de Desarrollo Sostenible. Las universidades están llamadas a desempeñar un papel protagónico en el cumplimiento de la Agenda y, en general, en la contribución a la sostenibilidad, a trav…
La responsabilidad empresarial en la subcontratación laboral: análisis del artículo 42 del Estatuto de los Trabajadores
2017
La subcontratación de obras y servicios constituye hoy en día el principal instrumento utilizado por las empresas para acometer la externalización de actividades productivas. La expansión de los procesos de descentralización productiva en los que se enmarca la figura de las contratas y subcontratas, ha hecho de este instrumento de gestión empresarial uno de los aspectos de mayor relevancia en el estudio del Derecho del Trabajo. En el ordenamiento jurídico español el artículo 42 del Estatuto de los Trabajadores (E.T.) constituye la norma base sobre la cual se asienta toda la construcción del sistema normativo que regula esta materia, pero la norma adolece de serias deficiencias, en tanto su …
