ETAT TOPOLOGIQUE DE L'ESPACE TEMPS A L'ECHELLE 0
2002
We propose in this research a new solution regarding the existence and the content of the initial spacetime singularity. In the context of topological field theory we consider that the initial singularity of space-time corresponds to a zero size singular gravitational instanton characterized by a Riemannian metric configuration (++++) in dimension D = 4. Connected with some unexpected topological data corresponding to the zero scale of space-time, the initial singularity is thus not considered in terms of divergences of physical fields but can be resolved in the frame of topological field theory. We get this result from the physical observation that the pre-spacetime is in a thermal equilib…
Liikunnan ja hera- tai proteiinijuomadieetin vaikutukset sirtuiinien 1-7 ilmentymiseen LCR-rottien raajalihaksessa
2014
Anne Mäkinen (2014). Liikunnan ja hera- tai proteiinijuomadieettien vaikutukset sirtuiinien 1-7 ilmentymiseen LCR -rottien raajalihaksessa. Liikuntabiologian laitos, Jyväskylän yliopisto, Liikuntafysiologian pro gradu-tutkielma, 41 s. Histonit ja muut kromosomaaliset proteiinit pakkautuvat DNA:n (deoksiribonukleiinihapon) tumaan. Histonideasetylaasit kontrolloivat osaltaan geenien ilmentymistä. Ryhmän III histonideasetylaaseja nimitetään sirtuiineiksi, joita on seitsemän kappaletta ja niiden toiminta on riippuvainen NAD+:sta (nikotiinihappoamidiadeniinidinukleotidi). Tutkimuksissa on todettu liikunnan lisäävän joidenkin sirtuiinien ilmentymistä, mutta proteiinin tai heran vaikutuksia sirtui…
Analysis of a database to predict the result of allergy testing in vivo in patients with chronic nasal symptoms.
2014
Background This article uses the logistic regression model for diagnostic decision making in patients with chronic nasal symptoms. We studied the ability of the logistic regression model, obtained by the evaluation of a database, to detect patients with positive allergy skin-prick test (SPT) and patients with negative SPT. The model developed was validated using the data set obtained from another medical institution. Methods The analysis was performed using a database obtained from a questionnaire administered to the patients with nasal symptoms containing personal data, clinical data, and results of allergy testing (SPT). All variables found to be significantly different between patients w…
Cognitive behavioural therapy interventions for insomnia among shift workers: RCT in an occupational health setting
2019
Abstract Introduction The aim of the study was to compare the effectiveness of cognitive behavioural therapy interventions for insomnia (CBT-I) to that of a sleep hygiene intervention in a randomized controlled design among shift workers. We also studied whether the features of shift work disorder (SWD) affected the results. Methods A total of 83 shift workers with insomnia disorder were partially randomized into a group-based CBT-I, self-help CBT-I, or sleep hygiene control intervention. The outcomes were assessed before and after the interventions and at 6-month follow-up using questionnaires, a sleep diary, and actigraphy. Results Perceived severity of insomnia, sleep-related dysfunction…
(Homosexual) Male Sex Work: Sociological Representations, Social Realities and New Normalizations
2016
Homosexual male sex work is undoubtedly a complex phenomenon, underestimated and overlooked not just in scientific research,2 but also in social policy. The social realities of sex work, as well as the sex workers themselves, are often pigeonholed and confused with various other phenomena (including child abuse; paedophilia; human trafficking and exploitation; drug use and addiction, etc.), which, though they may sometimes be involved, have swayed the focus of research. The present chapter will discuss main sociological perspectives on male sex work.
From free health care to pricing in subsaharian Africa : rise and fall of the project "health for all"
1997
The idea o f the "health for all", that consists in insure to each the free access to health care and the equality on treating, has been found enough rapidly taken in defect by the catastrophic economic situation of countries of Africa to the South o f the Sahara. Faced with the impossibility to promote a free health policy for all, local governments and international organisations, such the WHO and the UNICEF, have proposed to make pay users for cares that they receive and to decentralize management of public health system so as to create the favorable environment to a market of health. This reform of health system in Subsaharan Africa, called the Bamako Initiative, is going to tempt to so…
Latvijas sportisti sociālajā tīklā Instagram: maskulinitātes aspektu analīze
2016
Bakalaura darba tēma ir “Latvijas sportisti sociālajā tīklā Instagram: maskulinitātes aspektu analīze”. Darba struktūra sastāv no ievada, teorētiskās, metodoloģiskās, empīriskās daļas un secinājumiem. Darba pētāmā problēma - Latvijas sportistu sevis prezentēšana sociālajā tīklā Instagram, ar kādiem paņēmieniem tiek izrādīta maskulinitāte. Darba mērķis ir noskaidrot, kā Latvijā un arī pasaulē zināmi sportisti sevi izrāda sociālajā tīklā Instagram, kā arī atlasīt pētījumam nepieciešamo teorētisko literatūru. Lai izprastu sevis prezentēšanas procesus, darba teorētiskajā pamatojumā tiks apskatīta literatūra par Ervinga Gofmaņa dramaturģisko pieeju. Lai analizētu sevis prezentēšanu caur fotogrāf…
Kultūridentitāšu aspekti Laimas Kotas prozā
2020
Maģistra darba tēma ir “Kultūridentitāšu aspekti Laimas Kotas prozā”. Darba mērķis ir apzināt un analizēt L. Kotas prozu, atklājot kultūridentitāšu izpausmes, to izveidi ietekmējošos faktorus autores prozā. Tēma ir aktuāla mūsdienu skatījumā, jo līdz šim nav pētīti autores konkrētie darb, proti, stāstu krājums “Mana turku kafija”, romāni “Mierielas vilkme” un “Istaba”, kas tapuši, autorei integrējoties citā kultūrtelpā. Autores skatījums uz Rietumu – Austrumu un nacionālajām īpatnībām, īpaši autores darbos, par kuriem pētījumi ir salīdzinoši maz. Tāpat femīnās un maskulīnās, kā arī pašidentifikācijas iezīmes ir aktuālas, uzdodot jautājumu – kāpēc šis jautājums ir vai nav attiecināms uz L. K…
Effective Practices in Mitigating Soil Erosion from Fields
2017
Soil erosion by water is a natural process that cannot be avoided. Soil erosion depends on many factors, and a distinction should be made between humanly unchangeable (e.g., rainfall) and modifiable (e.g., length of the field) soil erosion factors. Soil erosion has both on-site and off-site effects. Soil conservation tries to combine modifiable factors so as to maintain erosion in an area of interest to an acceptable level. Strategies to control soil erosion have to be adapted to the desired land use. Knowledge of soil loss tolerance, T, i.e., the maximum admissible erosion from a given field, allows technicians or farmers to establish whether soil conservation practices need to be applied …
No-Till Soil Organic Carbon Sequestration Patterns as Affected by Climate and Soil Erosion in the Arable Land of Mediterranean Europe
2022
No-tillage (NT) has been considered an agronomic tool to sequester soil organic carbon (SOC) and match the 4p1000 initiative requirements of conservative soil management. Recently, some doubts have emerged about the NT effect on SOC sequestration, often because observations and experimental data vary widely depending on climate and geographic characteristics. Therefore, a suitable SOC accounting method is needed that considers climate and morphology interactions. In this study, the yearly ratio between SOC in NT and conventional tillage (CT) (RRNT/CT) collected in a previous study for flat (96 samples) and sloping (44 samples) paired sites was used to map the overestimation of SOC sequestra…
