"The rules of the game": how to favor entrepreneurship and creativity in a non-capitalistic economy
2016
The economy, nowadays, is leading us toward a huge crisis. An environmental crisis, a new financial crisis and finally a war crisis. The aim of this paper is to propose a way to change our economy to favor a better perspective of the future. In order to promote this new economy, two suggestions are proposed: promote entrepreneurship and promote creativity within an economy that would aim at getting full employment and at avoiding any unethical action towards the environment. Several propositions are made about education, culture and economy to obtain sustainable changes in the economic landscape and in order to promote entrepreneurship in this fictive economy.
Nefarmakoloģiskās atsāpināšanas metodes jaundzimušo intensīvās terapijas nodaļā
2018
Bakalaura darba tēma – Nefarmakoloģiskās atsāpināšanas metodes jaundzimušo intensīvās terapijas nodaļā. Šī tēma ir aktuāla, jo ik gadu pasaulē nāk ap 15 miljoniem bērnu , no kuriem vismaz viens no 10 jaundzimušajiem piedzimst pirms laika. Savukārt Latvijā katru gadu pirms laika jeb agrāk par pilnām 37 grūtniecības nedēļām dzimst vairāk nekā 1000 bērni, tie ir aptuveni 6% no kopējā dzimušo skaita. Darba izstrādāšanas mērķis - Noskaidrot un analizēt nefarmakoloģisko atsāpināšanas metožu izmantošanu procedūru sāpju novēršanai jaundzimušajiem intensīvās terapijas nodaļā. Pētniecības uzdevumi ir apkopot un analizēt literatūru par procedūru sāpēm jaundzimušajiem un nefarmakoloģiskām atsāpināšanas…
Liver stiffness quantification in biopsy-proven nonalcoholic fatty liver disease patients using shear wave elastography in comparison with transient …
2021
Purpose: This study prospectively assessed the performance of liver stiffness measurements using point shear-wave elastography (p-SWE) in comparison with transient elastography (TE) in patients with biopsy-proven nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Methods: Fifty-six consecutive adult patients with a histological diagnosis of NAFLD prospectively underwent TE and p-SWE on the same day. The median of 10 measurements (SWE-10), the first five (SWE-5), and the first three (SWE-3) measurements were analyzed for p-SWE. Liver biopsy was considered as the reference standard for liver fibrosis grade. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and areas under the ROC curves (AUROCs) were cal…
Teaching Nonviolence in the Italian primary and infant School of the second post-war: Aldo Capitini (1899-1968) and Idana Pescioli (1922-2016)
2021
My research investigates the proposal of the education’s philosopher Aldo Capitini about the nonviolent teaching in the Italian Second Post-War infant and primary school and focuses on the nonviolent educational practices which has been carried out. Especially, Idana Pescioli, a teacher of the primary and infant school, has been the one to experiment new educational methodologies and a nonviolent approach in the schools of children. I am using a historical-hermeneutic method and various sources: literary sources, documents in public and private archives, ministerial school regulations, internet sites, direct sources. The results achieved so far have highlighted the contribution that Aldo Ca…
Infant information processing and family history of specific language impairment: converging evidence for RAP deficits from two paradigms
2007
An infant's ability to process auditory signals presented in rapid succession (i.e. rapid auditory processing abilities [RAP]) has been shown to predict differences in language outcomes in toddlers and preschool children. Early deficits in RAP abilities may serve as a behavioral marker for language‐based learning disabilities. The purpose of this study is to determine if performance on infant information processing measures designed to tap RAP and global processing skills differ as a function of family history of specific language impairment (SLI) and/or the particular demand characteristics of the paradigm used. Seventeen 6‐ to 9‐month‐old infants from families with a history of specific l…
Recuperación muscular mediante la técnica fisioterápica del rodillo de espuma (foam roller)
2020
El músculo esa una estructura presente en la mayoría de animales que permite el movimiento. El daño muscular se solventa mediante la instauración de procesos de regeneración que se demoran en base al tipo de daño y la extensión del mismo. Existen múltiples estrategias para atajar el daño muscular pero el comportamiento a nivel metabólico de algunas de ellas no ha sido descrito. La hipótesis es que algunos de estas estrategias, concretamente en relación a la herramienta Foam Roller, o rodillo de espuma, podrían tener un efecto protector hacia el daño muscular. El Foam Roller, pues, podría atenuar el daño muscular y la inflamación acelerando los procesos curativos propios al organismo. La not…
A four-session acceptance and commitment therapy based intervention for depressive symptoms delivered by masters degree level psychology students: a …
2013
Background:Depressive symptoms are one of the main reasons for seeking psychological help. Shorter interventions using briefly trained therapists could offer a solution to the ever-rising need for early and easily applicable psychological treatments.Aims:The current study examines the effectiveness of a four-session Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) based treatment for self-reported depressive symptoms administered by Masters level psychology students.Method:This paper reports the effectiveness of a brief intervention compared to a waiting list control (WLC) group. Participants were randomized into two groups: ACT (n= 28) and waiting list (n= 29). Long-term effects were examined using…
Mantas konfiskācija kā kriminālsods, tās norobežošanā no mantas īpašas konfiskācijas
2018
Bakalaura darba „Mantas konfiskācija kā kriminālsods, tās norobežošanā, no mantas īpašas konfiskācijas" autors, aplūkojot dažādus literatūras avotus, analizēja mantas konfiskācijas kā soda un mantas īpašas konfiskācijas piemērošanas tendences, savstarpējās atšķirības, regulējuma attīstību. Mantas konfiskācija kā sods atšķiras no mantas īpašās konfiskācijas, katram no šiem institūtiem ir sava piemērošanas joma, kas ir savstarpēji jānorobežo viens no otra. Ar 2017.gada 22.jūnija grozījumiem Krimināllikums tika papildināts ar VIII2 nodaļu "Mantas īpašā konfiskācija", kas ir pareizi, jo iepriekš šis jautājums tika regulēts Kriminālprocesa likumā, tomēr salīdzinot Krimināllikumā ietverto regulēj…
Comprehensive analysis of interacting proteins and genome-wide location studies of the Sas3-dependent NuA3 histone acetyltransferase complex
2014
Highlights • We characterise Sas3p and Gcn5p active HAT complexes in WT and deleted TAP-strains. • We confirm that Pdp3p interacts with NuA3, histones and chromatin regulators. • Pdp3p MS-analysis reveals its phosphorylation, ubiquitination and methylation. • Sas3p can substitute Gcn5p in acetylation of histone H3K14 but not of H3K9. • Genome-wide profiling of Sas3p supports its involvement in transcriptional elongation.
Saturation and forward jets in proton-lead collisions at the LHC
2019
We investigate the forward-jet energy spectrum within the Color Glass Condensate framework at 5 TeV center-of-mass energy. In particular, we focus on the kinematic range covered by the CMS-CASTOR calorimeter. We show that our saturation-model calculations are compatible with the CASTOR measurements and that to optimally reproduce the data, effects of multi-parton interactions need to be included. We predict a significant nuclear suppression - reaching down to 50% at the lowest considered jet energies $E_{\rm jet} \sim 500 \, {\rm GeV}$.
