Jotain uutta, jotain vanhaa, jotain lainattua : ikääntyneiden perhehoito Suomessa

2017

Tässä artikkelissa tarkastellaan ikääntyneiden perhehoitoa, jolla tarkoitetaan ikääntyneen henkilön lyhyt-, osa-aikais- tai pitkäaikaishoitoa ja asumista perhehoitajan kodissa. Artikkelin tarkoituksena on tunnistaa tekijöitä, jotka ovat perhehoidon taustalla ja joiden varassa perhehoitoa kehitetään ikääntyneiden hoivan yhdeksi vaihtoehdoksi. Lisäksi artikkelissa tarkastellaan perhehoitoa hoivapoliittisena ratkaisuna julkisen ja yksityisen rajalla semiformaaliuden ja (de)domestikaation käsitteiden kautta. Aineistona käytetään eduskunnan täysistuntojen pöytäkirjoja sekä perhehoito- ja perhehoitajalakeja ja näiden lakien hallituksen esityksiä, joita analysoidaan Carol Bacchin WPR-metodin avull…

The effects of treated effluents on the intensity of papillomatosis and HSP70 expression in roach.

2008

Epidermal papillomatosis in fish has been proposed as an indicator of environmental stress but experimental evidence of connection between contaminants and papillomatosis in fish is scarce. We studied changes in the intensity of epidermal papillomatosis and the expression of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) in roach, Rutilus rutilus, exposed to treated pulp mill and municipal effluents. In male roach, the increase in papillomatosis intensity was higher in fish exposed to 15% than in fish exposed to 1.5% concentration of municipal effluent. No differences were observed in papillomatosis development in females, or in HSP70 expression. In all the experiments conducted, the increasing effect of ef…

The value of local climate and weather information: an economic valuation of the decentralised meteorological provision in Kenya

2020

The development of Sub-Saharan Africa will become increasingly constrained by the acute climate sensitivity of livelihood practices. Weather and climate services can improve climate risks to development by informing plans and decisions that ultimately reduce losses/maximize beneficial opportunities from climate variability and change. Yet, such services are typically highly aggregated, and notoriously difficult to communicate, especially to smallholder farmers and pastoralists where the need is greatest. Kenya Meteorological Department (KMD) are decentralizing service provision, and in so doing, offering disaggregated, contextualized, and more easily understandable localized weather and sea…

Nonparametric clustering of seismic events

2006

In this paper we propose a clustering technique, based on the maximization of the likelihood function defined from the generalization of a model for seismic activity (ETAS model, (Ogata (1988))), iteratively changing the partitioning of the events. In this context it is useful to apply models requiring the distinction between independent events (i.e. the background seismicity) and strongly correlated ones. This technique develops nonparametric estimation methods of the point process intensity function. To evaluate the goodness of fit of the model, from which the clustering method is implemented, residuals process analysis is used.

Mutations in KIAA0586 Cause Lethal Ciliopathies Ranging from a Hydrolethalus Phenotype to Short-Rib Polydactyly Syndrome

2015

KIAA0586, the human ortholog of chicken TALPID3, is a centrosomal protein that is essential for primary ciliogenesis. Its disruption in animal models causes defects attributed to abnormal hedgehog signaling; these defects include polydactyly and abnormal dorsoventral patterning of the neural tube. Here, we report homozygous mutations of KIAA0586 in four families affected by lethal ciliopathies ranging from a hydrolethalus phenotype to short-rib polydactyly. We show defective ciliogenesis, as well as abnormal response to SHH-signaling activation in cells derived from affected individuals, consistent with a role of KIAA0586 in primary cilia biogenesis. Whereas centriolar maturation seemed una…

2017

Promocijas darbā pētīta teksta nozīme iestudējuma koncepcijas īstenošanā, balstoties uz režisora Oļģerta Krodera iestudētajiem literatūras klasikas darbiem. O. Krodera radošā darbība analizēta hronoloģiski secīgos četros periodos, kurus lielā mērānosaka katrā periodā iestudētā V. Šekspīra traģēdija „Hamlets”. Kopumā analizēti 12 iestudējumi, fiksējot laikmeta refleksijas katra iestudējuma vēstījumā un pieņemot „Hamletu” kā atskaites punktu. Teksts pētījumā analizēts no hermeneitikas pozīcijām kā lingvistiski izteikts vēstī jums. Vienlaikus ņemts vērā jēdziena „teksts” kulturoloģiskais aspekts, kas iestudējuma vēstījuma atklāsmē par vienlīdz svarīgiem atzīst visus estētikas objektus. Pētījum…

Hessian PDF reweighting meets the Bayesian methods

2014

We discuss the Hessian PDF reweighting - a technique intended to estimate the effects that new measurements have on a set of PDFs. The method stems straightforwardly from considering new data in a usual $\chi^2$-fit and it naturally incorporates also non-zero values for the tolerance, $\Delta\chi^2>1$. In comparison to the contemporary Bayesian reweighting techniques, there is no need to generate large ensembles of PDF Monte-Carlo replicas, and the observables need to be evaluated only with the central and the error sets of the original PDFs. In spite of the apparently rather different methodologies, we find that the Hessian and the Bayesian techniques are actually equivalent if the $\Delta…

Empirical Likelihood-Based ANOVA for Trimmed Means

2016

In this paper, we introduce an alternative to Yuen’s test for the comparison of several population trimmed means. This nonparametric ANOVA type test is based on the empirical likelihood (EL) approach and extends the results for one population trimmed mean from Qin and Tsao (2002). The results of our simulation study indicate that for skewed distributions, with and without variance heterogeneity, Yuen’s test performs better than the new EL ANOVA test for trimmed means with respect to control over the probability of a type I error. This finding is in contrast with our simulation results for the comparison of means, where the EL ANOVA test for means performs better than Welch’s heteroscedastic…
