Adipose-derived stromal stem cells (ASCs) as a new regenerative immediate therapy combating coronavirus (COVID-19)-induced pneumonia.
2020
A coronavirus (HCoV-19) has caused the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak in Wuhan, China. Preventing and reversing the cytokine storm may be the key to save the patients with severe COVID-19 pneumonia.

Covid-19 pandēmijas izraisītā krīze ir izaicinājums ne tikai iedzīvotājiem, bet arī valsts tautsaimniecībai kopumā. Valdībai bija strauji jāsagatavo atbalsta instrumenti tiem, kurus epidemioloģiskās drošības ieviestie regulējumi skāra visvairāk, vistiešāk. Bakalaura darba mērķis: ir izpētīt Covid-19 ietekmi uz restorānu un bāru darbību, izdarīt secinājumus un sniegt priekšlikumus Covid-19 ietekmes mazināšanā. Bakalaura darbs sastāv no trīs nodaļām, pirmajā nodaļā tiek pētīta Covid-19 ietekme uz restorānu un bāru darbību no teorētiskā aspekta. Otrajā nodaļā tiek veik…
Rights of Young People and the European Social Charter
2021
The European Social Charter (alongside the case-law of the European Committee of Social Rights) forms the most striking binding legal source for young people’s social rights, providing a framework for synergies with both the European Union and the Council of Europe’s other instruments and mechanisms in this area. In the current times of pandemic, the most important thing is preventing the COVID-19 crisis (which has economic, political and social dimensions) from becoming a crisis of values among young people. From this perspective, on the one hand, the paper focuses on access of young people to education, labour market and housing. On the other hand, it proposes measures aimed at raising aw…
Management and use of filter masks in the “none-medical” population during the Covid-19 period
2020
Abstract SARS-CoV-2 has become a pandemic disease declared by the World Health Organization, consequently each nation has taken a series of actions managed by the government in order to prevent the spread of this dangerous virus. The most common countermeasure is the use of a mask that should cover the mouth and nose to filter the inhaled and exhaled air. Those masks are medical devices that should be handled properly; unfortunately in our study, observation of the population during the so-called “phase 2″ has very often shown an inappropriate use of any type of mask which reduces its effectiveness. The correct dissemination of adequate information on how to use the mask and the strict cont…

During this long period, one of the longest in Europe, the restrictions produced effects on people’s psychological well-being, with consequences that also continued after lockdown. The purpose of the study is to investigate these effects and how they changed in the general population over a period of time. We are also interested in exploring people’s post-lockdown anxiety and concerns. We conducted an online survey using snowball sampling techniques. The longitudinal study consisted of four administrations covering a period of 10 weeks between April (baseline) and June (last follow-up). Levels of anxiety and…
