description: Jämesoolevähk on oluliseks ülemaailmseks terviseprobleemiks. Eestis on seda kasvajat iseloomustanud pidev esmasjuhtude arvu suurenemine nii meestel kui ka naistel ning see on asetanud jämesoolevähi kõigi kasvajapaikmete iga-aastases esmasjuhtude pingereas kolmandale kohale. Riigiti väga erinevad ravitulemused on tingitud paljudest teguritest: olulised on nii erinevad ravivõimalused, varajaste juhtude osakaal kui ka tervishoiusüsteemi rahalised võimalused. Ravivõimalused on viimastel dekaadidel teinud läbi olulise arengu. Pärasoolevähi kirurgilises ravis on nõutavaks saanud TME (totaalse mesorektumiekstsisiooni) printsiipide järgimine, samuti on üha suuremat osakaalu võitmas laparoskoopiline kirurgiline ravi. Koos areneva süsteemraviga on laienemas maksametastaaside kirurgilise ravi võimalused. Endiselt on pärasoolevähi ravikompleksis oluliseks osaks kiiritusravi.

description: Abstract

Background: Integrating evidence-based practice (EBP) into healthcare delivery is pivotal for ensuring optimal patient outcomes and enhancing the quality of care. As frontline healthcare providers, nurses play a central role in this process, bridging the gap between research findings and clinical application. Objective: To assess knowledge, attitude, and practices regarding evidence-based practices of nurses at tertiary care hospitals. Methodology: This quantitative cross-sectional study was conducted in a tertiary care hospital in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The study employed a convenient sampling technique to select participants among 61 nurses. Result: In this study examining nurses' engagement with evidence-based practice (EBP), it was found that most nurses recognized EBP's fundamental importance and demonstrated a proactive approach toward integrating research into their practice. Notably, 74% converted information into research questions, indicating a keen interest in research integration. However, challenges persisted, including workload concerns and limited access to resources. While 65.57% acknowledged the importance of sharing information, areas needing improvement included understanding EBP improvement (37.7%) and critical analysis against standards (56%). Conclusion: The study results show that nurses strongly understand the value of evidence-based practice (EBP), with 74% incorporating research questions. Workload and resource constraints are issues that affect critical analysis and the comprehension of EBP improvement. To close these gaps and ensure that EBP is implemented in nursing practice effectively, better organizational support and resource accessibility are needed.

description: Suur osa viimastel aastakümnetel onkoloogias aset leidnud edusammudest on tingitud samaaegse kiiritus- ja keemiaravi ehk radiokemoteraapia kasutuselevõtust. Seda on võimaldanud nii kiiritusravi tehnilise poole täiustumine (uued moodsad lineaarkiirendid ja kiiritustehnikad) kui ka tõhusate keemiaravimite ning uute märklaudravimite väljatöötamine. Radiokemoteraapia baseerub tugevatel bioloogilistel alustel. Medikamentoosne vähiravim vähendab haiguse süsteemse leviku riski ning avaldab sünergistlikku ja intensiivistavat toimet kasvajarakkudele kiiritatavas piirkonnas. Radiokemoteraapiat kasutatakse tihti peamise ravimeetodina elundit säästvate raviprotokollide raames ning kasvajapaikmete puhul, kus ravi efektiivsuse tagamisel on oluline osa kasvaja lokaalsel kontrollil. Radiokemoteraapia operatsioonieelne või -järgne kasutus nõuab haiget opereerivate kirurgide ja kliiniliste onkoloogide toimivat koostööd.

description: Un ambito strategico attraverso il quale l'istituzione universitaria può contribuire a rinnovare pratiche e attori della cooperazione allo sviluppo è quello legato all'ICT e al capacity building di istituzioni e attori dello sviluppo. Vogliamo proporre una riflessione pratica a partire dalla specifica prospettiva di un centro di ricerca dedicato allo studio dell'impatto di queste nuove tecnologie della comunicazione nell'ambito della formazione (CREMIT- Università Cattolica di Milano). Attraverso una rivisitazione dell'esperienza dell'E-learning e un suo contestuale adattamento alla realtà delle università africane ci poniamo due domande: - come la sua attuazione possa trasformare l'insegnamento di una università in un paese emergente o in via di sviluppo (africano in particolare), e aprirlo a nuove opportunità; - come l'ITC possa favorire l'empowerment degli studenti e sviluppare in essi attitudini di progettazione, comunicazione e confronto necessarie all'avvio di forme locali di impresa sociale ed economica

description: Belgian pork production has faced stagnating prices for decades. It remains unclearwhether excessive market power from slaughterhouses or meat retailers has played arole in this trend. While market power studies can reveal some of the market dynamicsin this setting, this type of research has not yet been applied to the Belgian pork market.The present paper investigates oligopolies and oligopsonies in the pork productionsector. We build a new model that focuses on market power dynamics in the market forlive pigs and distinguishes horizontal and vertical market power parameters, both forpig farmers and for slaughterhouses. The results follow from an empirical applicationusing unique slaughterhouse data for 2001–2015. The results indicate that the farmersbenefit from a significant power advantage in the live pig market, when very modestprice demands are taken as a reference. The final market price of live pigs approachesthe price requested by the farmers. On the other hand, the measured vertical marketpower also suggests that a pig farmer does not receive the (modest) full-wage-basedsalary. The market power of the slaughterhouses is also limited. Market power as aresult of collusion—that is, horizontal market power—is present, but is not strong.However, there are significant differences between the slaughterhouses in terms ofmark-up on the input prices. These differences reflect differences in company strategy,and this diversity further reduces the possibility to create sector-wide collusivebehaviour.
Impurity band photoconductivity in Boron-doped silicon
Creators: name: Scott, Myrsyl Walter
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The effect of impurity concentration on the photoconductive spectrum of boron-doped silicon at helium temperatures was investigated. Photoconductivity was observed for excitations of the bound hole into the impurity excited states. The photoconductivity in this region depends strongly on impurity concentration and was interpreted as being conduction through excited state impurity bands. Two bands were observed to form, with excited states 3 and 4 in the boron spectrum forming one band and state 2 forming the other. A qualitative description of the mobility in the impurity bands was obtained using Baltensperger's theory and the additional assumption that the holes are scattered by "randomness" in the impurity array. Photoconductivity of holes in the valence band was also measured in order to obtain lifetimes and capture cross sections. Assuming the mobility in this region to be determined by neutral impurity scattering, the hole lifetime was estimated to be ~ 10⁻⁹ sec and the capture cross section of ionized boron ~ 3 x 10⁻¹⁰ cm². Assuming similar lifetimes for the holes in impurity bands, the peak mobility in band 3 and 4 was found to be ~ 150 cm² /volt-sec. The d.c. characteristics of the various samples, while at low temperature and exposed to room temperature radiation, were measured during the course of this investigation. All samples were observed to have a non-linear dependence between the current and applied field, terminated by a non-destructive low field breakdown.

Publisher: name: JUNCO | Journal of UNiversities and international development COoperation
Year: 2014

description: This paper presents selected partnership experiences between technical universities and NGOs in Italy aimed at promoting Sustainable Human Development (SHD) through formal higher education initiatives. It stems from the GDEE project (Global Dimension in Engineering Education) as part of a series of actions aimed at assessing and reinforcing cooperation between NGOs and academia which is recognized as a key factor in reinforcing the presence of SHD in formal teaching programs at all levels of university education. Four higher education programs based in technical (science and engineering) university departments are presented, which reveal several common traits in their goals, approach and activities. The paper is co-authored by both academic and NGO staff. In all the examined initiatives, partnerships between academia and NGOs both at local and international level are seen as a fundamental element of the educational approach. Thanks to the adopted multi-perspective viewpoint, the paper critically discusses the main strengths, open challenges and future perspectives of the selected initiatives. This preliminary analysis can serve as a basis for programs aimed at systematically reinforcing NGO-University partnerships as a win-win strategy within both the higher education and international development cooperation systems.

description: Covering: up to 2022. The report provides a broad approach to deciphering the evolution of coenzyme biosynthetic pathways. Here, these various pathways are analyzed with respect to the coenzymes required for this purpose. Coenzymes whose biosynthesis relies on a large number of coenzyme-mediated reactions probably appeared on the scene at a later stage of biological evolution, whereas the biosyntheses of pyridoxal phosphate (PLP) and nicotinamide (NAD+) require little additional coenzymatic support and are therefore most likely very ancient biosynthetic pathways.

description: We present a population study of several types of galaxies within the protocluster surrounding the radio galaxy MRC0316-257 at z~3.1. In addition to the known population of Ly_alpha emitters (LAEs) and [OIII] emitters, we use colour selection techniques to identify protocluster candidates that are Lyman break galaxies (LBG) and Balmer break galaxies (BBGs). The radio galaxy field contains an excess of LBG candidates, with a surface density 1.6\pm0.3 times larger than found for comparable blank fields. This surface overdensity corresponds to an LBG volume overdensity of ~8\pm4. The BBG photometric redshift distribution peaks at the protocluster's redshift, but we detect no significant surface overdensity of BBG. This is not surprising because a volume overdensity similar to the LBGs would have resulted in a surface density of ~1.2 that found in the blank field. This could not have been detected in our sample. Masses and star formation rates of the candidate protocluster galaxies are determined using SED fitting. These properties are not significantly different from those of field galaxies. The galaxies with the highest masses and star formation rates are located near the radio galaxy, indicating that the protocluster environment influences galaxy evolution at z~3. We conclude that the protocluster around MRC0316-257 is still in the early stages of formation.

description: Motivated by recent experiments, we extend the Joanny-deGennes calculation of the elasticity of a contact line to an arbitrary contact angle and an arbitrary plate inclination in presence of gravity. This requires a diagonalization of the elastic modes around the non-linear equilibrium profile, which is carried out exactly. We then make detailed predictions for the avalanche-size distribution at quasi-static depinning: we study how the universal (i.e. short-scale independent) rescaled size distribution and the ratio of moments of local to global avalanches depend on the precise form of the elastic kernel.

description: In an anisotropic universe, observers not positioned at a point of special symmetry should observe cosmic parallax - the relative angular motion of test galaxies over cosmic time. It was recently argued that the non-observance of this effect in upcoming precision astrometry missions such as Gaia may be used to place strong bounds on the position of off-center observers in a void-model universe described by the Lemaitre-Tolman-Bondi metric. We consider the analogous effect in anisotropic cosmological models described by an axisymmetric homogeneous Bianchi type I metric and discuss whether any observation of cosmic parallax would distinguish between different anisotropic evolutions.

Dependence of the static coefficient of friction on the time of stationary contact
Creators: name: Davis, Harold Robert
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The dependence of the static coefficient of friction on the time of stationary contact has been determined using stick-slip vibration to provide a periodic time of stationary contact between two metallic bodies. To describe this time dependence a theory based on the creep by diffusion for metals in contact has been developed. This approach is similar to the adhesion theory presented by many authors as representative of junction strength in friction. Eleven friction-couples were studied; ten couples being very pure metals run against an annealed steel disk. The eleventh couple consisted of a hardened steel slider against the annealed steel disk. The results indicated that, fundamentally, very little difference in static friction values was apparent between the friction-couples. Because of the difficulty in obtaining material properties it was not possible to compare the experimental results with purely theoretical predictions. However, within reasonable experimental accuracy, the shape of the friction-time curves agreed with those predicted by theory. By varying the system parameters it was found that, in general, the static coefficient of friction was load and area independent but seemed to be very dependent on surface finish and the micro—structure of the friction-couples. Notable exceptions to this rule were indium and silver which showed excessive creep under load thus directly affecting the static coefficients of friction. It is important to stress that quantitative results for the friction-growth curves are not applicable since the system parameters affect the results greatly. However, a qualitative idea of the fundamental problems that exist allows a reasonable prediction of friction values to be made.

description: We have obtained high-resolution spectroscopy, optical interferometry, and long-term broad band photometry of the ellipsoidal primary of the RS CVn-type binary system zeta And. Based on the optical interferometry the apparent limb darkened diameter of zeta And is 2.55 +/- 0.09 mas using a uniform disk fit. The Hipparcos distance and the limb-darkened diameter obtained with a uniform disk fit give stellar radius of 15.9 +/- 0.8 Rsolar, and combined with bolometric luminosity, it implies an effective temperature of 4665 +/- 140 K. The temperature maps obtained from high resolution spectra using Doppler imaging show a strong belt of equatorial spots and hints of a cool polar cap. The equatorial spots show a concentration around the phase 0.75. This spot configuration is reminiscent of the one seen in the earlier published temperature maps of zeta And. Investigation of the Halpha line reveals both prominences and cool clouds in the chromosphere. Long-term photometry spanning 12 years shows hints of a spot activity cycle, which is also implied by the Doppler images, but the cycle length cannot be reliably determined from the current data.

Subjects: Vocational Interests

description: Abstract - John Holland´s RIASEC‐model has become the standard in vocational interest
 research, but has some shortcomings and is inadequate for academic
 counseling
 - Therefore, we developed a more fine grained model that can be connected to
 the popular RIASEC dimensions but has (a) more differentiated dimensions
 and (b) facets that form these dimensions on the second level.
 - In this poster we present an overview of the development process and
 demonstrate the psychometric fit of our hierarchical model.

Role of the lysine methyltransferase Set7 in smooth muscle gene expression and function

description: Histone methylation is controlled by lysine methyltransferase enzymes to regulate the expression of genes implicated in cellular differentiation and lineage specificity. The lysine methyltransferase Set7 was originally described to monomethylate histone H3 on lysine 4 (H3K4me1) and more recently non-histone proteins. Set7 has been implicated in regulating key genes involved in the maintenance of pluripotency and skeletal and cardiac muscle development. While the importance of epigenetic modifiers in cardiac and skeletal muscle gene program has been described, epigenetic regulation of smooth muscle genes is poorly understood. The aims of this thesis are to identify (i) how the Set7 gene is regulated in embryonic stem cells; (ii) investigate the role of Set7 in smooth muscle gene regulation utilizing an in vitro stem cell differentiation system; and (iii) investigate the role of Set7 using a knockout mouse model. Promoter analysis of Set7 in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) show bivalency with active H3K4me3 and repressive H3K27me3 modifications. The Set7 promoter is suppressed by the pluripotent transcription factors, Oct4 and Sox2. Deletion of the Oct4/Sox2 binding site activates Set7 transcription. Differentiation of mESCs is associated with reduced H3K27me3 and reduced Oct4 and Sox2 binding. Transcriptional network analysis identifies genes associated with differentiation are broadly regulated. More specifically, smooth muscle (SM)-associated gene expression is reduced in Set7 knockdown (KD) Sca1+ cells. Pharmacological inhibition of Set7 activity also reduces the expression of SM-associated genes corresponding with the results derived from Set7 KD cells. Furthermore, SM-associated gene regulation is subject to Set7 mediated methylation of H3K4me1 as well as the interaction with the Serum Response Factor (SRF) protein. Investigation of a Set7 knockout (KO) mouse model showed reduced expression of canonical SM-related genes in the aorta. Morphological abnormalities within SM layer of Set7-/- mice aorta were observed correlating with reduced vessel wall thickness and reduced SM cell number. Taken together, the results presented in this thesis suggest a novel role for Set7 in SM gene regulation, smooth muscle architecture and function.

description: To investigate the validity of the Wiedemann-Franz (WF) law in disordered but metallic cuprates, the low-temperature charge and heat transport properties are carefully studied for a series of impurity-substituted and carrier-overdoped La_{1.8}Sr_{0.2}Cu_{1-z}M_zO_4 (M = Zn or Mg) single crystals. With moderate impurity substitution concentrations of z = 0.049 and 0.082 (M = Zn), the resistivity shows a clear metallic behavior at low temperature and the WF law is confirmed to be valid. With increasing impurity concentration to z = 0.13 (M = Zn) or 0.15 (M = Mg), the resistivity shows a low-T upturn but its temperature dependence indicates a finite conductivity in the T \to 0 limit. In this weakly-localized metallic state that is intentionally achieved in the overdoped regime, a {\it negative} departure from the WF law is found, which is opposite to the theoretical expectation.

The curvature of the critical surface (m_ud,m_s)^{crit}(mu): a progress report

description: At zero chemical potential mu, the order of the temperature-driven quark-hadron transition depends on the quark masses m_{u,d} and m_s. Along a critical line bounding the region of first-order chiral transitions in the (m_{u,d},m_s) plane, this transition is second order. When the chemical potential is turned on, this critical line spans a surface, whose curvature at mu=0 can be determined without any sign or overlap problem. Our past measurements on N_t=4 lattices suggest that the region of quark masses for which the transition is first order shrinks when mu is turned on, which makes a QCD chiral critical point at small mu/T unlikely. We present results from two complementary methods, which can be combined to yield information on higher-order terms. It turns out that the O(mu^4) term reinforces the effect of the leading O(mu^2) term, and there is strong evidence that the O(mu^6) and O(mu^8) terms do as well. We also report on simulations underway, where the strange quark is given its physical mass, and where the lattice spacing is reduced.

description: Competitive birth-death processes often exhibit an oscillatory behavior. We investigate a particular case where the oscillation cycles are marginally stable on the mean-field level. An iconic example of such a system is the Lotka-Volterra model of predator-prey competition. Fluctuation effects due to discreteness of the populations destroy the mean-field stability and eventually drive the system toward extinction of one or both species. We show that the corresponding extinction time scales as a certain power-law of the population sizes. This behavior should be contrasted with the extinction of models stable in the mean-field approximation. In the latter case the extinction time scales exponentially with size.

Right-Handed Sneutrino Curvaton and non-Gaussianity

description: In this paper, we explore the parameter space for a Right-Handed (RH) sneutrino curvaton that can generate large non-Gaussianity without assuming any particular inflation sector. The mass of the RH sneutrino is suggested from a discussion on the initial condition of the curvaton field. It is shown that a small Yukawa coupling is generally required for a successful RH sneutrino curvaton. However, the Yukawa coupling can be larger if we consider the braneworld scenario. Some general discussion about the spectral index in curvaton scenario is also provided.

description: It is a classical result of Stein and Waterman that the asymptotic number of RNA secondary structures is $1.104366 n^{-3/2} 2.618034^n$. In this paper, we study combinatorial asymptotics for two special subclasses of RNA secondary structures - canonical and saturated structures. Canonical secondary structures were introduced by Bompfünewerer et al., who noted that the run time of Vienna RNA Package is substantially reduced when restricting computations to canonical structures. Here we provide an explanation for the speed-up. Saturated secondary structures have the property that no base pairs can be added without violating the definition of secondary structure (i.e. introducing a pseudoknot or base triple). Here we compute the asymptotic number of saturated structures, we show that the asymptotic expected number of base pairs is $0.337361 n$, and the asymptotic number of saturated stem-loop structures is $0.323954 1.69562^n$, in contrast to the number $2^{n-2}$ of (arbitrary) stem-loop structures as classically computed by Stein and Waterman. Finally, we show that the density of states for [all resp. canonical resp. saturated] secondary structures is asymptotically Gaussian. We introduce a stochastic greedy method to sample random saturated structures, called quasi-random saturated structures, and show that the expected number of base pairs of is $0.340633 n$.

description: Hambumusanomaaliate esinemissageduse hindamine ja ravivajaduse määramine on oluline osa ortodontilise ravi planeerimisel. Uurimuses kasutati ortodontilise ravivajaduse hindamiseks ortodontilise ravivajaduse indeksit. 10,7%-l Tartu I klasside lastel esineb
vajadus ortodontiliseks raviks, mis on võrdväärne või veidi väiksem vajadus võrreldes teiste Euroopa maade lastega. Hambumusanomaaliatest esineb ravivajadusega lastel kõige enam sügavhambumust, hammaste kuhjumist ja suurenenud sagitaalset lahi. Eestis kasutusel olev hambumuse registreerimise meetod on õigustatud, kuna põhineb morfoloogilistel näitajatel, jättes välja esteetika hindamise, mis üksinda on ebatõhus, et määrata lastel ortodontilist ravivajadust.

description: Tartu Ülikooli Kliinikumi üldintensiivraviosakonnas on intraabdominaalset rõhku (IAP) mõõdetud alates 2004. aastast. Käesolev töö keskendub intraabdominaalse hüpertensiooni (IAH) esinemissageduse ja mõju uurimisele kahe perioodi võrdluses: esimesel perioodil (2004–2006) mõõdeti IAP ainult eeldatava riskirühma patsientidel, teisel perioodil (2006–2007) aga kõikidel aparaadihingamisel olevatel haigetel. Uurimuse tulemustest selgus, et IAH riskirühm on raskesti kindlaks tehtav. Jälgides IAPd ainult valitud patsientidel, jääb osa IAH-patsientidest identiﬁ  tseerimata. IAH esineb intensiivravipatsientidel sageli ning on seotud nende suurema suremusega.
