Oral contraceptives in the prevention of endometrioma recurrence: does the different progestins used make a difference?
2013
""The primary aim of the study was to analyze the endometrioma recurrence rate in patients who underwent laparoscopic excision followed by postoperative long-term regimen of oral contraceptives (OCs).. . MATERIALS AND METHODS: 168 patients who underwent a conservative laparoscopic surgery for endometrioma, during the period between September 2009 and August 2010 in three university hospitals were studied. A long-term OCs therapy was offered to all women following surgery. Patients were randomly divided into three groups according to different progestins used (desogestrel, gestodene, dienogest). Women who refused a postoperative hormonal therapy served as control. Follow-up visits and transv…
Die multikulturelle Identität der zwei- oder mehrsprachigen Menschen : Auffassungen, Einstellungen und Erfahrungen zur multikulturellen Identität
2016
Tutkielma selvittää miten kaksi- ja monikieliset henkilöt kokevat monikulttuurisen identiteettinsä sekä mahdollisen tuen tarpeen. Toisekseen tutkielman tarkoituksena oli selvittää, minkälaisia käsityksiä ja ideoita kielten opettajilla oli sen suhteen, miten he voisivat tukea oppilaita heidän monikulttuurisen identiteettinsä kanssa. Suomessa syksyllä 2016 käyttöön otettava perusopetuksen perussuunnitelma painottaa mm. monikulttuurisuutta yhdessä kielten ja kulttuurisen osaamisen kanssa sekä oppilaiden yksilöllistä kasvua kokonaisvaltaisesti tukien. Sekä opettajien että oppilaiden erilaiset ja mitä monimuotoisimmat identiteetit ovat suuressa roolissa luokkahuoneessa, minkä vuoksi aihe on mm. …
Affect in the Context of Self-Determination Theory
2018
Self-determination theory has been applied to understand the role of affect in motivation and behavior in health contexts. According to self-determination theory, autonomous forms of motivation, reflecting self-endorsed reasons for acting and the satisfaction of psychological needs, are related to participation and persistence in health behavior. Research examining the role of affect in determining health behavior from the perspective of the theory is relatively sparse. Affect has served as both an outcome and process in applications of the theory to health behavior. Positive affect and psychological well-being have been identified as important outcomes of participating in behaviors for aut…
Readers’ Theater Projects for Special Education : A Randomized Controlled Study
2022
A randomized controlled trial was conducted to study the effectiveness of two readers’ theater (RT) programs in promoting reading skills and motivation of dysfluent readers in Grades 3–4. One program (RT Goal) included a goal of preparing a performance for an audience (n = 50), while another program (RT Practice) did not include such a goal (n = 49). A group of dysfluent readers receiving traditional oral reading intervention (Control group; n = 59) and a group of classroom peers (Mainstream group; n = 159) served as controls. The results indicate that both RT groups and the Control group developed at a higher rate in oral reading speed during the intervention period than the Mainstream gro…
Automašīnu un motociklu marku nosaukumi latviešu sarunvalodā
2022
Pēdējos gadsimtus kopā ar cilvēkiem veiksmīgi ir attīstījušies motorizēti transporta līdzekļi. Tā kā to nosaukumu variāciju ir ļoti daudz, saprotams, ka vēl vairāk ir arī to modeļu un paveidu. Bieži vien to nosaukumi un modeļi ir gari vai grūti izrunājami, tāpēc cilvēks tiem ir izdomājis dažādus sarunvalodas nosaukumus, respektīvi, iesaukas. Vai tiešām slinkums ir cēlonis, lai pārdēvētu automašīnu un motociklu, mopēdu ražotāju dotos, viņuprāt, labskanīgos nosaukumus? Kuilis, burbulis, cigārs vai, piemēram, vafele, banāns ir parasti, ikdienā bieži sastopami lietvārdi, tomēr šajā bakalaura darbā tiks pētītas šo un citu vārdu saikne ar automašīnu un motociklu modeļiem. Darba mērķis ¬¬– apkopot…
Which route of administration of acid tranexamic, intravenous or intra-articular, is more effective in the control of post-surgical bleeding after a …
2019
Abstract Introduction One of the most frequent complications after a total hip arthroplasty (THA) is bleeding, intravenous tranexamic acid (TXA) is used to reduce it. We considered it necessary to carry out a study to clarify which administration route is superior. Material and method Prospective, controlled and randomized study in 2 arms carried out between February 2017 and February 2018. 15 mg/kg of intravenous TXA were administered in group A and 2 g of intra-articular TXA in group B. The values of haemoglobin and haematocrit were evaluated at 24 h-72 h, blood loss volume, drained blood volume, transfusions and complications. Results 78 patients were included, 31 with intravenous treatm…
Effectiveness of a 12-month home-based exercise program on trunk muscle strength and spine function after lumbar spine fusion surgery:a randomized co…
2022
Purpose: The effectiveness of a 12-month home-exercise program on trunk muscle strength after lumbar spine fusion surgery was evaluated. Materials and methods: Three months postoperatively, 98 patients were randomized either to the exercise group (EG), with a progressive 12-month home-based exercise program, or to usual care group (UCG), with one guidance session for light home-exercises. Maximal trunk muscle strength was measured by a strain-gauge dynamometer and trunk extensor endurance was measured by Biering-Sørensen’s test at baseline and after the intervention. Results: The mean change in extension strength during the intervention was 75 N in EG and 58 N in UCG. Flexion strength impro…
Infliximab, azathioprine or combination therapy in the treatment of active Crohn's disease.
2010
The treatment of moderate-to-severe steroid-dependent Crohn's disease has been a challenging issue for the gastroenterologist. Until to 10 years ago, immunosuppressors, mainly azathioprine or 6-mercaptopurine, were the best possible treatments available, and remission rates ranged from 30 to 60% according to the results of open studies and controlled trials. Recently, infliximab has been shown to be effective in steroid-dependent patients and, combined with azathioprine, it has been shown to increase 1-year remission rates. A recent large randomized controlled trial comparing infliximab, azathioprine and infliximab plus azathioprine demonstrated that the combination of infliximab plus azath…
A controlled trial of intra-articular corticosteroids with or without methotrexate in oligoarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis
2014
In contrast with the numerous controlled trials conducted in polyarticular or systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), little evidence-based information is available for oligoarticular JIA. As a result, the management of children with this subtype, which is the most prevalent in Western countries, is largely empiric. Intra-articular corticosteroid (IAC) injection is the therapy of first choice for oligoarthritis in many pediatric rheumatology centers. However, although IAC injections are usually highly efficacious, relapses of synovitis are common and sometimes occur only a few months after the procedure. It is still unclear whether concomitant administration of methotrexate (MTX) may …
Improving the cementation of the tibial component in knee arthroplasty : a study of four techniques in the cadaver.
2021
Aims The main objective of this study is to analyze the penetration of bone cement in four different full cementation techniques of the tibial tray. Methods In order to determine the best tibial tray cementation technique, we applied cement to 40 cryopreserved donor tibiae by four different techniques: 1) double-layer cementation of the tibial component and tibial bone with bone restrictor; 2) metallic cementation of the tibial component without bone restrictor; 3) bone cementation of the tibia with bone restrictor; and 4) superficial bone cementation of the tibia and metallic keel cementation of the tibial component without bone restrictor. We performed CT exams of all 40 subjects, and mea…
