Double copies of blaKPC-3::Tn4401a on an IncX3 plasmid in Klebsiella pneumoniae successful clone ST512 from Italy
2015
ABSTRACT A carbapenem-resistant sequence type 512 (ST512) Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase 3 (KPC-3)-producing K. pneumoniae strain showing a novel variant plasmid content was isolated in Palermo, Italy, in 2014. ST512 is a worldwide successful clone associated with the spread of bla KPC genes located on the IncFIIk pKpQIL plasmid. In our ST512 strain, the bla KPC-3 gene was unusually located on an IncX3 plasmid, whose complete sequence was determined. Two copies of bla KPC-3 ::Tn 4401a caused by intramolecular transposition events were detected in the plasmid.
Prevalencia de la hipertensión arterial y factores asociados en población adulta de la Comunitat Valenciana
2014
La hipertensión es el principal factor de riesgo en términos de mortalidad atribuible y el principal factor de riesgo cardiovascular modificable. Los objetivos del estudio han sido: estimar la prevalencia de hipertensión arterial en población adulta de la Comunitat Valenciana, describir el grado de conocimiento, tratamiento y control de la hipertensión y la fuerza de asociación entre determinados factores y la presencia de hipertensión arterial. El punto de partida ha sido una submuestra de 413 hombres y 415 mujeres de edades comprendidas entre los 16 y los 90 años del estudio transversal de base poblacional (encuesta de nutrición) realizado en la Comunitat Valenciana entre 2010 y 2011.

Anxiety-related care problems in patients in the intensive care unit
2021
Bakalaura darba temats: Ar trauksmes izjūtu saistītas aprūpes problēmas pacientiem intensīvās terapijas nodaļā Temata aktualitāti pamato apstāklis, ka intensīvās terapijas nodaļās vairāk kā puse pacientu izjūt trauksmi, kas negatīvi ietekmē viņu ārstēšanas gaitu un var par radīt virkni komplikāciju. Paaugstinoties vispārējam pacientu stresam un trauksmes izjūtai stacionāros, kas saistīts ar Covid-19 situāciju, šī tēma iegūst īpašu aktualitāti. Pētījuma mērķis: noskaidrot ar trauksmes izjūtu saistītās aprūpes problēmas pacientiem intensīvās terapijas nodaļā. Pētījuma uzdevumi: 1)Pētīt teorētisko literatūru par pacientu trauksmes problēmām intensīvās teorijas nodaļās; 2)Analizēt K. Rojas adap…
Upper thermal threshold of Lepidurus arcticus (Branchiopoda, Notostraca) in lakes on the southern outreach of its distribution range
2021
Qvenild T, Fjeld E, Fjellheim A, Hammar J, Hesthagen T and Lakka H-K. 2021. Upper thermal threshold of Lepidurus arcticus (Branchiopoda, Notostraca) in lakes on the southern outreach of its distribution range. Fauna norvegica 41: 50–88. The Arctic tadpole shrimp Lepidurus arcticus has a circumpolar distribution and the Scandes (Fennoscandian Mountains) marks its southernmost limit in Europe. Within this area, 391 natural and 88 regulated lakes with L. arcticus have been identified, of which 87% are above the treeline. The lakes hosting L. arcticus decrease in altitude from south to north, which results from its temperature preferences. The majority of the locations are at a lower lake air t…
Working hours – tracking the current and future trends
2021
It is important to track the trends of future working hours, since working hours have strong associations to everyday life and work-life interaction, but also to health. In this paper we aim to track the current and future trends in working hours. We discuss the trends through the key dimensions of working hours: the length, timing, tempo and autonomy. We also consider the role of current trends of spatial changes of work. Changes in working time patterns are fostered by several driving factors: globalization and business restructuring challenging the current work organizations, new information technologies, demographic and climate change and the current and future pandemics. The past and c…
Black Queen Evolution and Trophic Interactions Determine Plasmid Survival after the Disruption of the Conjugation Network
2018
Bacterial antibiotic resistance is often a part of mobile genetic elements that move from one bacterium to another. By interfering with the horizontal movement and the maintenance of these elements, it is possible to remove the resistance from the population. Here, we show that a so-called plasmid-dependent bacteriophage causes the initially resistant bacterial population to become susceptible to antibiotics. However, this effect is efficiently countered when the system also contains a predator that feeds on bacteria. Moreover, when the environment contains antibiotics, the survival of resistance is dependent on the resistance mechanism. When bacteria can help their contemporaries to degrad…
Sosiaaliset suhteet ja sosiaalinen kompetenssi 3.-4. luokkalaisilla

Esi- ja alkuopetusikäisen lapsen sosiaalisen ja emotionaalisen kompetenssin tukeminen
2015
Tämän pro gradu -tutkielman aiheena on esi- ja alkuopetusikäisen lapsen sosiaalisen ja emotionaalisen kompetenssin tukeminen koulukontekstissa. Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli luoda interventio, joka tukee lapsen sosiaalisen ja emotionaalisen kompetenssin kehitystä. Lisäksi tarkoituksena oli kuvailla tutkimukseen osallistuneiden lasten sosiaalisia ja emotionaalisia taitoja niiltä osin kuin ne interventiossa tulivat esiin. Aihevalintaa ohjasi tutkijoiden kiinnostus ja koettu tarve tukea lasten sosiaalista ja emotionaalista kompetenssia kouluarjessa. Tämä tutkimus on toimintatutkimus, joka toteutettiin eräässä suomalaisessa starttiluokassa kevään 2014 aikana. Tutkimukseen osallistui kaksi tyttö…
An Automatic Method for Assessing Spiking of Tibial Tubercles Associated with Knee Osteoarthritis
2022
Efficient and scalable early diagnostic methods for knee osteoarthritis are desired due to the disease’s prevalence. The current automatic methods for detecting osteoarthritis using plain radiographs struggle to identify the subjects with early-stage disease. Tibial spiking has been hypothesized as a feature of early knee osteoarthritis. Previous research has demonstrated an association between knee osteoarthritis and tibial spiking, but the connection to the early-stage disease has not been investigated. We study tibial spiking as a feature of early knee osteoarthritis. Additionally, we develop a deep learning based model for detecting tibial spiking from plain radiographs. We collected an…
