Wood-decaying fungi in old-growth boreal forest fragments: extinctions and colonizations over 20 years

2021

According to ecology theory, isolated habitat fragments cannot maintain populations of specialized species. Yet, empirical evidence based on monitoring of the same fragments over time is still limited. We studied the colonization–extinction dynamics of eight wood-decaying fungal species in 16 old-growth forest fragments (<14 ha) over a 20-year period (1997–2017). We observed 19 extinctions and 5 colonizations; yet, the distribution of extinctions and colonizations did not differ from the one expected by chance for any of the species. Twenty-six percent of the extinctions took place in two natural fragments amid large forest–peatland complexes. (Romell) Bourdot and Galzin decreased …

Trends in Food Habits and Their Relation to Socioeconomic Status among Nordic Adolescents 2001/2002-2009/2010

2016

BACKGROUND: In the Nordic countries, substantial policy and intervention efforts have been made to increase adolescents' consumption of fruit and vegetables and to reduce their intake of sweets and soft drinks. Some initiatives have been formulated in a Nordic collaboration and implemented at national level. In recent years, social inequalities in food habits have been attracted particular governmental interest and several initiatives addressing the socioeconomic gradient in food habits have been highlighted. However, few internationally published studies have evaluated how trends in adolescents' food habits develop in the context of Nordic nutrition policy, or have compared differences bet…

Predicting limiting 'free sugar' consumption using an integrated model of health behavior.

2020

Excess intake of ‘free sugars’ is a key predictor of chronic disease, obesity, and dental ill health. Given the importance of determining modifiable predictors of free sugar-related dietary behaviors, we applied the integrated behavior change model to predict free sugar limiting behaviors. The model includes constructs representing ‘reasoned’ or deliberative processes that lead to action (e.g., social cognition constructs, intentions), and constructs representing ‘non-conscious’ or implicit processes (e.g., implicit attitudes, behavioral automaticity) as predictors of behavior. Undergraduate students (N = 205) completed measures of autonomous and controlled motivation, the theory of planned…

Development of a Food-Based Diet Quality Score from a Short FFQ and Associations with Obesity Measures, Eating Styles and Nutrient Intakes in Finnish…

2019

We constructed a food-based diet quality score (DQS) and examined its association with obesity measures, eating styles and nutrient intakes. Participants were 3592 individuals (764 dizygotic [DZ] and 430 monozygotic [MZ] twin pairs) from the FinnTwin16 study. The DQS (0&ndash

Hookworm-like eggs in children’s faecal samples from a rural area of Rwanda

2016

Background: Hookworm eggs identification and quantification is usually carried out by Kato-Katz method. However various structures present in the smear may be confused with eggs of such parasites. Objective: To document the presence of structures in Kato-Katz slides that could initially be misinterpreted as hookworm eggs. Method: 497 faecal samples were analysed by Kato-Katz technique, diphasic concentration technique, agar-plate coprocultive and larvae obtained were analysed by PCR and characterized by sequencing. Result: Hookworm-like eggs were found in 159 (32%) of the samples by Kato Katz, finally identified as Caenorhabditis elegans by PCR technique. Conclusion: The diagnosis of human …

Atskaišu izstrāde nekustamā īpašuma nodokļa administrēšanas sistēmai NINO

2018

Nekustamo īpašumu administrēšanas sistēma jeb NINO ir pašvaldību vajadzībām veidota programmatūra. Tās mērķis ir atvieglot nekustamā īpašuma nodokļa administrēšanas darbus. NINO sistēmā iespējams veikt nodokļu aprēķinus, informācijas uzskaiti, apstrādi un glabāšanu, dokumentu uzskaiti, dažādu paziņojumu sagatavošanu, darbības ar maksājumiem vai sodu un parādu summām, kā arī atskaišu sagatavošanu. Kvalifikācijas darba mērķis ir NINO sistēmai izstrādāt papildinājumus atbilstoši pasūtītāja vajadzībām. Galvenās izmaiņas ir nepieciešamība nekustamo īpašuma nodokli par ēkām sadalīt divās daļās – “par mājokli” un “par nedzīvojamām ēkām”. Šī darba ietvaros tiks izstrādātas vairākas atskaites sagata…
