Veselīga uztura „šķīvja principa” maltīšu ietekme uz ķermeņa miesas būvi raksturojošiem antropometriskiem parametriem
2021
“Šķīvja princips” tiek uzskatīts par vienu no labākajiem veidiem, kā izglītot sabiedrību par veselīga uztura pamatprincipiem (Harvard University, 2011), nodrošinot organismu ar visām nepieciešamajām uzturvielām, minerālvielām un vitamīniem. Veselīga uztura “šķīvja princips” tiek plaši pielietots un ieteikts daudzu valstu, arī Latvijas Republikas Veselības ministrijas veselīga uztura rekomendācijās. Tomēr ir vērojams zinātnisko datu un pamatojuma trūkums “šķīvja principa” atbilstības novērtējumam uztura vadlīnijām. Tādēļ šī pētījuma mērķis ir novērtēt antropometrisko parametru izmaiņas paaugstinātas augu izcelsmes produktu diētas sešu nedēļu ievērošanas rezultātā pētījuma dalībniekiem ar atš…
Pirkstiņrotaļas un rotaļas ar priekšmetiem 3- 4 gadus vecu bērnu griešanas prasmes sekmēšanai
2019
Kvalifikācijas darba tēma ir, “Pirkstiņrotaļas un rotaļas ar priekšmetiem 3-4 gadus vecu bērnu griešanas prasmes sekmēšanai”. Darba mērķis ir teorētiski analizēt un praktiski pētīt, kā pirkstiņrotaļu un rotaļu ar priekšmetiem pielietošana sekmē 3-4 gadus vecu bērnu griešanas prasmes. Mērķa sasniegšanai tika izvirzīti vairāki uzdevumi: 1. Analizēt pedagogu un psihologu atziņas par 3-4 gadus vecu bērnu attīstību un raksturot griešanas prasmes. 2.Analizēt pedagogu atziņas par rotaļu, pirkstiņrotaļu pētījuma kontekstā. 3.Veikt pētījumu par griešanas prasmju sekmēšanu rotaļā. Darba pirmajā daļā teorētiski tiek analizēta pedagogu un psihologu atziņas par bērna attīstības īpatnībām vidējā pirmskol…
The Greenland shark Somniosus microcephalus—Hemoglobins and ligand-binding properties
2017
A large amount of data is currently available on the adaptive mechanisms of polar bony fish hemoglobins, but structural information on those of cartilaginous species is scarce. This study presents the first characterisation of the hemoglobin system of one of the longest-living vertebrate species (392 +/- 120 years), the Arctic shark Somniosus microcephalus. Three major hemoglobins are found in its red blood cells and are made of two copies of the same a globin combined with two copies of three very similar beta subunits. The three hemoglobins show very similar oxygenation and carbonylation properties, which are unaffected by urea, a very important compound in marine elasmobranch physiology.…
Association between clusters of diseases and polypharmacy in hospitalized elderly patients: results from the REPOSI study.
2011
BACKGROUND: Although the association between multimorbidity and polypharmacy has been clearly documented, no study has analyzed whether or not specific combinations of diseases influence the prescription of polypharmacy in older persons. We assessed which clusters of diseases are associated with polypharmacy in acute-care elderly in-patients. METHODS: This cross-sectional study was held in 38 Italian internal medicine and geriatric wards participating in the Registro Politerapie SIMI (REPOSI) study during 2008. The study sample included 1155 in-patients aged 65 years or older. Clusters of diseases, defined as two or more co-occurring specific chronic diseases, were identified using the odds…
Analysis of salivary detection of P16INK4A and RASSF1A promoter gene methylation and its association with oral squamous cell carcinoma in a Colombian…
2019
Background Epigenetic factors play a fundamental role in the etiopathogenesis of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). This study evaluated if salivary detection of P16INK4A/RASSF1A gene promoter methylation might be linked to the clinical/histological features of OSCC in a Colombian population. Material and Methods Methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction (MSP-PCR) was used to detect the methylation frequency of P16INK4A/RASSF1A genes in DNA obtained from whole saliva collected of 40 healthy controls (HC) and 43 OSCC patients. Determination of the clinical performance of MSP-PCR assay was based on standard algorithms derived from two-way contingency table analysis. The association of …
Understanding the SO 2 degassing budget of Mt Etna’s paroxysms: First clues from the december 2015 sequence
2019
The persistent open-vent activity of basaltic volcanoes is periodically interrupted by spectacular but hazardous paroxysmal explosions. The rapid transition from quiescence to explosive eruption poses a significant challenge for volcanic hazard assessment and mitigation, and improving our understanding of the processes that trigger these paroxysmal events is critical. Although magmatic gas is unquestionably the driver, direct measurements of a paroxysm’s gas flux budget have remained challenging, to date. A particularly violent paroxysmal sequence took place on Etna on December 2015, intermittently involving all summit craters, especially the Voragine (VOR) that had previously displayed no…
Land Use Affects Carbon Sources to the Pelagic Food Web in a Small Boreal Lake
2016
Small humic forest lakes often have high contributions of methane-derived carbon in their food webs but little is known about the temporal stability of this carbon pathway and how it responds to environmental changes on longer time scales. We reconstructed past variations in the contribution of methanogenic carbon in the pelagic food web of a small boreal lake in Finland by analyzing the stable carbon isotopic composition (δ13C values) of chitinous fossils of planktivorous invertebrates in sediments from the lake. The δ13C values of zooplankton remains show several marked shifts (approx. 10 ‰), consistent with changes in the proportional contribution of carbon from methane-oxidizing bacteri…
Steroid Biomarkers Revisited - Improved Source Identification of Faecal Remains in Archaeological Soil Material.
2017
Steroids are used as faecal markers in environmental and in archaeological studies, because they provide insights into ancient agricultural practices and the former presence of animals. Up to now, steroid analyses could only identify and distinguish between herbivore, pig, and human faecal matter and their residues in soils and sediments. We hypothesized that a finer differentiation between faeces of different livestock animals could be achieved when the analyses of several steroids is combined (Δ5-sterols, 5α-stanols, 5β-stanols, epi-5β-stanols, stanones, and bile acids). We therefore reviewed the existing literature on various faecal steroids from livestock and humans and analysed faeces …
Intermediate-depth earthquake generation and shear zone formation caused by grain size reduction and shear heating
2015
cited By 23; The underlying physics of intermediate-depth earthquakes have been an enigmatic topic; several studies support either thermal runaway or dehydration reactions as viable mechanisms for their generation. Here we present fully coupled thermomechanical models that investigate the impact of grain size evolution and energy feedbacks on shear zone and pseudotachylite formation. Our results indicate that grain size reduction weakens the rock prior to thermal runaway and significantly decreases the critical stress needed for thermal runaway, making it more likely to result in intermediate-depth earthquakes at shallower depths. Furthermore, grain size is reduced in and around the shear z…
