Love, joy and necessity - A phenomenological study of food and meals in adolescents and young adults with cancer receiving high-emetogenic chemothera…
2021
Abstract Purpose This study explored how the phenomenon of meals appeared in the interrelationship between adolescents and young adults (AYAs) receiving high-emetogenic chemotherapy, their next of kin and health professionals in the clinical setting. Method Data were collected by 140 h of participant observation conducted to gain insights into the nature of how meals appeared in the interrelationship between 12 AYAs (age 15–29 years), their next-of-kin and health professionals. The AYAs were patients with oncological and haematological diseases recruited from three university hospital departments. Data analysis was guided by van Manen's hermeneutic-phenomenological approach. Results The ess…
Differences in cardiometabolic risk profiles between Chinese and Finnish older adults with glucose impairment and central obesity.
2022
Abstract Background Obesity and ethnicity play important roles in cardiovascular complications in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study aimed to compare cardiometabolic risk profiles between Chinese and Finnish older adults of central obesity with prediabetes or T2DM. Methods Study subjects were 60–74 years old and originated from two population samples. The Finnish subjects came from the Kuopio Ischemic Heart Disease (KIHD) study (n = 1089), and the Chinese subjects came from the Shanghai High-risk Diabetic Screen (SHiDS) study (n = 818). The KIHD and SHiDS studies used similar questionnaires to determine participants’ baseline characteristics regarding the history of m…
Organized Sport Participation and Physical Activity Levels among Adolescents with Functional Limitations
2017
Sufficient and regular physical activity is considered a protective factor, reducing the onset of secondary disability conditions in adolescents with chronic diseases and functional limitations. The aim of this study was to explore whether participation in organized sport may be associated to higher levels of physical activity in adolescents with functional limitations, based on a national representative sample. Data from the Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC) study collected in Finland from two data collection rounds (2002 and 2010) were conducted and pooled from adolescents aged between 13 and 15 years old with functional limitations (n = 1041). Differences in self-reported p…
Physical Activity Among Adolescents With Long-Term Illnesses or Disabilities in 15 European Countries.
2017
Physical activity (PA) is an important health-promoting behavior from which adolescents with long-term illnesses or disabilities (LTID) can benefit. It is important to monitor differences across countries in adherence with PA recommendations for health. The aim of this study was to compare PA levels among 15 European countries after disaggregating data by disability. Data from pupils (mean age = 13.6 years, SD = 1.64) participating in the 2013/2014 Health Behavior in School-aged Children study were analyzed to compare adolescents without LTID, with LTID, and with LTID that affects their participation (affected LTID). Logistic regression models adjusted for age and family affluence, stratifi…
The Interplay between Child Maltreatment and Stressful Life Events during Adulthood and Cardiovascular Problems—A Representative Study
2021
Psychological stress is a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. While the relevance of early life stress, such as that which is due to child maltreatment (CM), is well known to impact individual stress responses in the long-term, and data on the interplay between CM and stressful events in adulthood on cardiovascular health are sparse. Here, we aimed to assess how stressful life events in adulthood are associated with cardiovascular health infarction in later life and whether this association is independent of CM. In a cross-sectional design, a probability sample of the German population above the age of 14 was drawn using different sampling steps. The final sample included 2510 pe…
Nusidawimai szwento Karawimo [Geschichte des heiligen Krieges]
1814
Grāmatā par varonīgo prūšu u.c. cīņām pret Napoleonu. Minēta Leipcigas kauja (Bataille de Leipzig), arī Tautu kauja (Völkerschlacht bei Leipzig, Битва народов), kas bija nozīmīga kauja pret Napoleona Bonaparta spēkiem no 1813. gada 16. oktobra līdz 19. oktobrim. Kauja norisinājās Saksijas karalistē, pie Leipcigas. Tajā Sestā koalīcija (Krievijas Impērija, Austrijas impērija, Prūsijas karaliste un Zviedrija) pieveica Napoleona spēkus un pēc kaujas Napoleons zaudēja kontroli pār teritorijām uz austrumiem no Reinas. Pēc kaujas beidza pastāvēt arī Reinas konfederācija. Grāmatā arī Kristiana Daniela Hasenšteina (Christian Daniel Hassenstein) tulkotas un sarakstītas dziesmas par varonīgajiem cīnī…

Ligophorus pilengas n. sp. (monogenea: ancyrocephalidae) from the introduced so-iuy mullet, mugil soiuy (teleostei: mugilidae), in the sea of Azov an…
2004
The monogenean Ligophorus chabaudi was originally described on the gills of the flathead mullet, Mugil cephalus, and was subsequently reported on the So-iuy mullet, Mugil soiuy. However, the morphology of sclerotized parts and multivariate statistical analyses suggest that the form from the So-iuy mullet represents a new species. This study provides a description of the new species Ligophorus pilengas n. sp. and provides additional morphological data concerning the morphology of the ventral bar that might be useful for the diagnosis of Ligophorus. Ligophorus pilengas n. sp. is the second species of Ligophorus reported on the So-iuy mullet. Zoogeographical records indicate that L. pilengas n…

Glen Philips: Western Australia's poet of the land and environment
2020
Artykuł ten nawiązuje do problematyki stosunkowo młodej gałęzi, jaka rozwinęła się w krytyce literackiej ostatnich dekad, tzw. ekokrytyki i jej obecności w literaturze australijskiej na przykładzie zachodnioaustralijskiego poety i krytyka Glena Philipsa (1936–), którego poezja jest ściśle związana ze środowiskiem naturalnym, w którym wzrastał i które zawsze inspirowało jego pisarstwo. Po skrótowym przedstawieniu historii ekokrytyki w USA, Europie i Australii autor, posługując się koncepcją pochodzenia dzieła sztuki niemieckiego filozofa Martina Heideggera, interpretuje wiersz Glena Philipsa pt. „In the Hollow of the Land”, widząc w nim egzemplifikację wspólnego rozumienia świata, jaki jest …
