Latimer, Christopher Paul, and n/a. "Temporomandibular joint pathological changes in the prehistoric New Zealand Maori and Moriori." University of Otago. Department of Anatomy & Structural Biology, 2001. http://adt.otago.ac.nz./public/adt-NZDU20070517.125434.
Full textAbstract:
Diseases and disorders of the temporomandibular joint are commonly encountered clinically. This has lead to most temporomandibular research focusing upon the pathologies that affect the joint and their proposed aetiologies. Little of this research has been conucted on the prehistoric Polynesians. Therefore, this study was developed in order to determine the type and pattern of any temporomandibular pathologies in the prehistoric Maori and Moriori and to investigate their possible aetiologies.
For this study a sample of 89 prehistoric Maori and Moriori skulls were used. All temporomandibular pathologies were recorded by type, location, and severity. Where possible, the ecological and geographical provenance of each individual was recorded and their sex and age estimated. This enabled an analysis of whether the prevalence and severity of temporomandibular degeneration varied between provenances or sexes, and if the occurrence of temporomandibular pathology increased with age. The condition of the dentition was also recorded for each individual as the dentition has been implicated in many previous studies to be an aetiological factor in temporomandibular degeneration. The dental conditions examined include; tooth attrition, inflammation of infection of the alveolar bone, dental caries, and fern root planes. Finally, the presence of any congenital or developmental anomalies and condylar enthesophytes were recorded in order to investigate if these conditions had any relationship to the occurrence of temporomandibular degeneration.
A high prevalence of temporomandibular degenerative joint disease was found in this sample. No primary relationship was seen between age, congenital or developmental anomalies, condylar enthesophytes and temporomandibular degeneration. Furthermore, despite a high proportion of these individuals having very worn teeth, with consequent infection and tooth loss, no primary relationships were found between the selected dental conditions and temporomandibular degeneration either. However, a significant association was found between the selected dental conditions and temporomandibular degeneration either. A significant association was found between the sex of the individual and temporomandibular pathology, with males being more frequently and severely affected than the females. This appeared to be due differences in dietary type between the sex of the individual and temporomandibular pathology, with males being more frequently and severely affected than the females. This appeared to be due to differences in dietary type between the sexes resulting in more severe biomechanical degeneration recorded may be caused by excessive biomechanical loading possibly resulting from the diet or as a consequence of the Polynesian morphology. Interestingly, over one third of the sample had grooving in at least one fossae. It is proposed that this grooving may have either a hereditary component, or result from a specific morphological variation that is present in the prehistoric Maori and Moriori.

Full textAbstract:
Throughout the nineteenth century probably the majority of Pakeha held the view that the East Polynesian ancestors of the Maori were the first people to settle in New Zealand. Over the same period there were always considerable numbers of Pakeha who held the alternative view that an earlier people were already living in New Zealand when the first East Polynesian immigrants arrived. Among Maori each hapu and iwi had their own origin traditions. Some held that their ancestors arrived to an empty land, while others believed there were other groups already here when their own ancestors arrived. The traditions of the Chatham Island Moriori indicated that they were also East Polynesian migrants, but some Pakeha speculated that the Moriori were a distinct people from the Maori.
By the early twentieth century one set of ideas on early settlement had become the orthodox view of the past among Pakeha. This view, which held sway from the 1910s until at least the 1960s, maintained that the original people of New Zealand were the �Moriori�, a people only distantly related, if at all, to the Maori. This primitive early people were supposed to have been displaced by the arrival of the more advanced East Polynesian Maori. Some of the more fortunate Moriori were absorbed into the Maori tribes, while the majority were either killed or driven into exile on the Chatham Islands. This idea of the past, sometimes called the �Moriori Myth�, has now been largely rejected by scholars, but still holds some currency in popular circles.
The current thesis examines the question of how the �Moriori Myth� developed and eventually became the orthodox view of the past. This question is investigated in the contexts of British imperial expansion, of the development of scientific ideas on race and evolution, and of the study of language and folklore as a way to decipher racial history. The current thesis is largely based on the writings of Pakeha and Maori scholars of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Letters and manuscripts, in both English and Maori, have been used, along with published books and papers. The major focus of the work is the idea that the Moriori Myth largely developed out of the Pakeha study of Maori oral history. This study of oral history led to a considerable degree of interaction between Pakeha scholars and Maori experts.
A major focus in the early part of the work is on Pakeha attempts to determine the racial identity and history of the Chatham Island Moriori. In this part of the work considerable attention has been paid to the collaborative work of the Pakeha scholar Alexander Shand and the Moriori expert Hirawanu Tapu, who worked together to record the surviving Moriori traditions.
The focus of the latter part of this thesis is on the creation by Pakeha scholars of theoretical models of the early migrations to New Zealand, based on their understandings of Maori oral traditions. It will be argued that the �Moriori Myth� was largely based on the writings of Stephenson Percy Smith, as promoted by himself and Elsdon Best, through the medium of the knowledge network formed by the Polynesian Society. Smith�s writings on the �Moriori Myth� will be shown to have been largely based on his interpretations of the writings of the Ngati Kahungunu scholar Hoani Turei Whatahoro. It will be argued that the �Moriori Myth� was in fact the creation of interactions between Pakeha scholars and Maori experts rather than the invention of any one person or group.

Full textAbstract:
The history of ideas about Moriori origins, settlement, and culture has yet to be charted across the entire twentieth century. The thesis' primary goal is to begin the documentation of this in detail. It examines the two key strands of thought that have shaped this history of ideas: that Moriori were the remnants of a mainland pre-Maori people, and that they were the descendants of Maori voyagers. These sets of ideas existed simultaneously, which led to an intellectual history shaped by intersecting curves formed through long-ranging debate rather than a single linear progression of thought. Each strand of thought comprised several threads, or ideas about Moriori history that altered over time. The thesis traces this history of ideas about Moriori origins, settlement, and culture through texts, from Alexander Shand's ethnological analysis The Moriori People of the Chatham Islands, published in 1911, to Barry Barclay's 2000 documentary, The Feathers of Peace. It establishes the ideas advanced in key texts on Moriori history, explores the context in which these texts were produced, and suggests a link between shifts in debate and contemporary relations between Maori and Pakeha.

Full textAbstract:
Le mythe de Médée est un des mythes les plus anciens que la tradition nous a transmis, mais, paradoxalement, c'est peut-être le plus “moderne” et scabreux entre les mythes connus. La thèse s'occupera d'abord de l'œuvre de Christine de Pizan, “La Cité des Dames” et l'image de Médée qui émerge: la terrible reine devient dans les pages de Christine un symbole du savoir et de la loyauté féminine par rapport à l'autre, qui n'est pas seulement fidélité amoureuse mais c'est l'abandon total du corps et de l'âme. On mettra en relation la “Cité” de Christine avec le “De mulieribus claris” de Boccace et on cherchera à démontrer que l'œuvre de Christine n'est pas une traduction, un plagiat de la plus célèbre œuvre de notre écrivain et poète. Dans la deuxième partie de la thèse, je vais analyser la version d'une autre femme spéciale; démontrant que les visages de Médée sont nombreux et variés: la Midea de Irina Possamai. Irina, est, en effet, une des premières librettistes italiennes et a choisi – comme Christine - de raconter dans un opéra lyrique sa Médée qui, ce n’est pas par hasard , qu’elle l’a appelé MideaThe Medea myth is one of the most ancient that tradition has handed to us, but paradoxically, is perhaps the most 'modern' and scabrous among those ever known.For her mysterious character and, in some aspects, demonic, Medea has enjoyed vast fortune in ancient times as well as in modern and contemporary art.We will focus the dissertation on Christine de Pizan’s text, La Cité des Dames and the figure of Medea that emerges: the terrible Medea becomes, in the writing of Christine, the symbol of knowledge and female loyalty towards others, which is not only faithfulness in love, but total availability of body and soul. We will link the Christine’s Cité with Boccaccio’s De mulieribus claris and we will argue that Christine’s work is not a translation, a plagiarism, of the most famous work of our writer and poet. In the second part of the thesis, I will analyze the version of another special woman; showing that the faces of Medea are numerous and diverse: the Midea of Irina Possamai. Irina is, in fact, one of the first Italian librettiste and chose - as Christine did - to narrate her Medea in an opera that, not surprisingly, she called Midea.The Medea myth is one of the most ancient that tradition has handed to us, but paradoxically, is perhaps the most 'modern' and scabrous among those ever known.For her mysterious character and, in some aspects, demonic, Medea has enjoyed vast fortune in ancient times as well as in modern and contemporary art.We will focus the dissertation on Christine de Pizan’s text, La Cité des Dames and the figure of Medea that emerges: the terrible Medea becomes, in the writing of Christine, the symbol of knowledge and female loyalty towards others, which is not only faithfulness in love, but total availability of body and soul.

Full textAbstract:
El objetivo de esta Tesis ha consistido en estudiar diversos aspectos de la biología de los macrófagos, células clave en el desarrollo de la respuesta inmunitaria. Los macrófagos se caracterizan por ser células que en los tejidos se encuentran proliferando y manteniendo su viabilidad gracias a la presencia de factores de crecimiento. Sin embargo, cuando reciben un estímulo activador, ya sea el IFN-gamma, principal activador endógeno de los macrófagos o bien el LPS, componente de las bacterias Gram negativas, dejan de proliferar y pasan a activarse y a desarrollar sus funciones características, como son la expresión de citocinas proinflamatorias (como el TNF-alfa Il-1beta, IL-6), la producción de NO o bien la expresión de las moléculas del MHC II. En algunos casos, por ejemplo en ausencia de factores de crecimiento o bien estimulados con LPS, los macrófagos experimentan apoptosis o muerte celular. Este trabajo se ha centrado en estudiar las diferentes vías de señalización que participan en las distintas respuestas de los macrófagos (como proliferación, activación, supervivencia y apoptosis). En este sentido se ha demostrado que la vía de señalización de MEK/ERK es esencial para los procesos de proliferación y activación, aunque lo hace con una cinética distinta. Mientras que estímulos proliferativos generan un pico corto y rápido de activación, estímulos que inducen la activación de los macrófagos como por ejemplo el LPS, la cinética de activación de estas quinasas es más tardía. Esta cinética de activación de ERK diferencial nos permite discernir entre estímulos proliferativos y activadores. Además se ha demostrado que el IFN-gamma, aunque no activa a las quinasas ERK, induce un alargamiento en el tiempo de la activación de estas quinasas a través de la inhibición de la expresión de MKP-1 inducida por factores de crecimiento. El alargamiento de actividad de ERK, inhibe la expresión de c-myc, proteína indispensable para la progresión del ciclo celular y por tanto inhibe la proliferación de los macrófagos. Por otro lado, hemos demostrado que la vía de señalización de PI-3K/AKT es la responsable de la expresión de p21Waf1 y responsable de la respuesta de supervivencia de los macrófagos debida a factores de crecimiento y otros agentes. También hemos visto que la ciclosporina, un inmunosupresor ampliamente utilizado para evitar el rechazo de los transplantes, inhibe la actividad de ERK inducida por el M-CSF lo que produce un bloqueo de la proliferación. Este efecto es independiente de la fosfatasa Calcineurina, principal diana de la ciclosporina.Además, también se ha analizado como el entorno celular puede afectar a las respuestas de proliferación y activación de los macrófagos. Se ha demostrado que un aumento de adhesión producido por la decorina y fibronectina inhibe la proliferación de los macrófagos a través de la expresión de p27Kip1 y la prolongación de la actividad ERK. La decorina aumenta la activación de los macrófagos a través del secuestro del TGF-beta? producido de forma endógena por estas células.
Por ultimo el LPS, aunque es un buen activador de los macrófagos, induce apoptosis en determinadas situaciones, por ejemplo cuando dicha estimulación se produce de forma incorrecta, es decir, en ausencia de IFN-gamma o bien debido a dosis elevadas de LPS, responsables del shock séptico. La apoptosis inducida por el LPS se produce a través de dos vías de señalización independientes. Una primera vía mas temprana debida a la secreción autocrina de TNF-alfa y una segunda vía mas tardía, basada en la producción de NO. La apoptosis de los macrófagos inducida por el LPS se da principalmente a través de la producción de TNF-alfa que esta regulada mayoritariamente por PKC-epsilon a través de la modulación de la actividad JNK.

Este trabalho trata da revisão taxonômica das espécies de Morion do Continente Americano (M. arida, M. boliviensis, M. brasiliensis, M. cordata, M. costigera, M. cycloma, M. lafertii, M. monilicornis e M. simplex), sendo que apenas uma não ocorre na região Neotropical (M. monilicornis). Foi realizado um estudo morfológico detalhado de todas as espécies, visando encontrar novos caracteres diagnósticos para testar a hipótese taxonômica vigente e para facilitar a identificação das espécies. Não foram identificadas espécies novas e as nove spécies mostraram-se válidas. A análise de novas estruturas, além de revelar características antes não estudadas (como braquipteria em M. brasiliensis) deu mais robustez à hipótese existente. Também foram confeccionados mapas de distribuição geográfica de todas as espécies, o que revelou que algumas apresentam distribuição bastante restrita (principalmente as espécies braquípteras), enquanto outras têm uma distribuição bastante ampla. Uma chave dicotômica para a identificação das espécies foi preparada, visando facilitar a identificação das mesmas.This study is a taxonomic revision of the New World Morion, which has nine valid species (M. arida, M. boliviensis, M. brasiliensis, M. cordata, M. costigera, M. ycloma, M. lafertii, M. monilicornis and M. simplex), of which, only one of them is not recorded in the Neotropical region (M. monilicornis). A detailed morphological study was done aiming for finding out new diagnostic characteristics in order to test the current taxonomic hypothesis and to make specific identification easier. These nine species were analyzed and remained valid; no new one was found. The analysis of new structures made it possible to find some characters never studied before (e.g., M. brasiliensis brachyptery) and strengthened the previous hypothesis. The maps representing the geographic distribution of all species revealed that some of them have a limited area of occurrence (mainly the flightless species), although others are widespread. A dichotomic identification key was also done to facilitate species identification.

In questo elaborato, dopo aver presentato in un primo momento i principali elementi storico-politici della guerra in Algeria e in Afghanistan, mi soffermerò sulla funzione degli harkis algerini e dei tarjuman afghani. In particolare, mi attarderò sulle difficoltà incontrate da queste figure al termine del loro servizio, e dell’indifferenza dello Stato francese di fronte alle richieste di protezione e di asilo. I pochi fortunati dovranno infatti aspettare anni prima di poter iniziare una nuova vita in Francia, mentre la maggior parte dei loro colleghi rimarrà bloccata in un vortice di violenza, nella totale incomprensione e delusione, profondamente rammaricata di aver servito la bandiera francese. Infine, analizzerò l’importante ruolo dell’interprete militare, figura spesso nell’ombra, che tuttavia svolge un lavoro arduo e rischioso, con molte complessità e altrettante difficoltà, sia dal punto di vista umano che linguistico. Concluderò, in seguito, con un approfondimento sullo status giuridico dell’interprete di guerra e delle leggi, ancora vaghe, che lo tutelano.

A utilização de sequências do DNA mitocondrial (mtDNA) como marcadores moleculares na investigação da diversidade genética e evolução é muito difundida, auxiliando na realização de inferências em inúmeros trabalhos. Apesar de sua inegável importância, a utilização dessas sequências como marcadores moleculares suscita algumas questões. A heteroplasmia, por exemplo, é reconhecida como um desafio na utilização de sequências do mtDNA. Este estado ocorre quando um organismo apresenta diferentes haplótipos mitocondriais. Em um trabalho anterior, foram encontrados indícios que sugeriam a presença de heteroplasmia na espécie de abelha Bombus morio. O trabalho atual investigou de forma mais detalhada a presença de heteroplasmia nessa espécie, assim como fatores que podem influenciar na identificação desse estado. Os resultados obtidos confirmaram a existência de heteroplasmia nessa espécie, e identificaram que alguns haplótipos heteroplásmicos foram compartilhados entre indivíduos de localidades distintas. Esses haplótipos heteroplásmicos compartilhados sugerem a existência de heteroplasmia estável em B. morio, o que pode influenciar inferências evolutivas, e em especial, os estudos populacionais. Também foi detectada a presença de NUMTs, pseudogenes nucleares resultantes da transferência de sequências do mtDNA para o genoma nuclear. Esses NUMTs apresentaram grande divergência de sequência em relação aos haplótipos mitocondriais, o que poderia afetar análises filogenéticas e populacionais, além da identificação de espécies por meio do DNA barcoding. Ainda, erros de amplificação podem ser falsamente interpretados como variação intraindividual do DNA mitocondrial (mtDNA), superestimando o número de haplótipos, principalmente quando polimerases de baixa fidelidade são utilizadas. Por fim, os resultados observados neste trabalho sugerem que a utilização de sequências do mtDNA deve ser utilizada de forma cautelosa, e indícios de heteroplasmia, como a presença de picos duplos, não devem ser ignorados. Quando essas evidências são observadas investigações mais detalhadas devem ser aplicadas, a fim de aferir qual a sua origem, e, no caso da heteroplasmia ser confirmada, quais as possíveis consequências produzidas pela presença desse estadoThe mitochondrial DNA sequences (mtDNA) have been widely applied as molecular markers in the investigation of genetic diversity and evolution. Despite its undeniable importance, the use of these sequences as molecular markers may present some drawbacks. Heteroplasmy, for example, is recognized as a challenge. This state occurs when an individual has different mitochondrial haplotypes. In a previous work, evidences suggesting the presence of heteroplasmy in the bumblebee Bombus morio were verified. The present work investigated in more detail the presence of heteroplasmy in this species, as well as factors that may influence the identification of this state. The results confirmed the existence of heteroplasmy in this species, and identified that some heteroplasmic haplotypes were shared between individuals from different locations. These shared heteroplasmic haplotypes suggest the existence of stable heteroplasmy in B. morio, which may interfere in evolutionary inferences, especially in population studies. NUMTs, nuclear pseudogenes resulting from the transfer of mtDNA sequences to the nuclear genome, were also detected. These NUMTs showed great sequence divergence from mitochondrial haplotypes, which could affect phylogenetic and population analyzes, as well as species identification through DNA barcoding. In addition, it was observed that amplification errors might be misinterpreted as mtDNA intraindividual variation and overestimates the number of intraindividual haplotypes, especially when low fidelity polymerases are used. Finally, the results observed in this study suggest that the use of mtDNA sequences should be used carefully, and evidences of heteroplasmy, such as the presence of double peaks, should not be ignored. Additional investigations should be applied in case of heteroplasmy evidences to ascertain your source and the consequences of the presence of this state

A Filogeografia é um dos campos mais multidisciplinares da Biologia, e agrega diferentes áreas como sistemática filogenética, genética de populações, geologia, modelos paleogeográficos e paleoclimáticos, demografia e conservação. Assim, além da Filogeografia comparada, apresento resultados importantes para a conservação das espécies estudadas e a descrição de uma espécie críptica. Bombus morio e B. pauloensis são espécies simpátricas que ocupam uma grande área em dois importantes biomas brasileiros, Mata Atlântica e Cerrado. Exceto pelas diferenças na dispersão, maior em B. morio, possuem comportamento e nicho ecológico semelhantes. Os resultados gerados a partir de marcadores moleculares e modelagem de distribuição sugerem que as alterações climáticas do final do Pleistoceno influenciaram a estrutura populacional das duas espécies, e que a maior capacidade de dispersão foi responsável pela ausência de estruturação em B. morio. O leste do estado de São Paulo, no qual foram encontradas diferentes quebras filogeográficas para vários organismos, mostrou-se mais uma vez complexo e com mais um diferente cenário filogeográfico. Além disso, essa região por ser o centro da diversidade genética em B. pauloensis e ter sido estável ao longo da mudanças climáticas para ambas espécies, é prioritária para a conservação das mesmasPhylogeography is one of the most multidisciplinary fields in Biology and joins different areas such as phylogenetic systematics, population genetics, geology, paleogeographic and paleoclimatic models, demography, and conservation. Thus, besides comparative Phylogeography, I also present important results concerning the conservation of the species studied and the description of a cryptic species. Bombus morio and B. pauloensis are sympatric species, occupying a large area in two important Brazilian biomes, Atlantic forest and Brazilian savanna. Except for differences in dispersal, which is greater in B. morio, both species have similar behavior and ecological niches. The results obtained by molecular data and distribution models suggest that climatic oscillations in the late Pleistocene influenced the population structure of both species, and that a greater dispersal capacity was responsible for the absence of genetic structure in B. morio. Eastern São Paulo state, in which different phylogeographic breaks have been found for many organisms, seems to be complex and to have a new phylogeographic scenario. Furthermore, this region, because it is the center of genetic diversity for B. pauloensis and it was stable throughout periods of climatic change for both species, is a priority for their conservation

Particularmente, lo que siempre nos llamó la atención en la carrera, no fue tal vez la construcción de grandes edificaciones o la realización de detallados diseños de interiores en un espacio, sino, lo que realmente nos motiva a aprender y tomar cierto interés a la arquitectura, es a la que con gran afecto llamamos “Arquitectura Libre”, la cual, en términos técnicos, se asemeja en gran medida a la Arquitectura Paisajista.
En otras palabras, el típico contenedor desaparece para dar mayor libertad al espacio, ofreciendo una alternativa a los tradicionales muros que nos limitan, los cuales dependen de vanos y aberturas para la visual al exterior. Dando cabida al diseño de espacios abiertos, donde la naturaleza es la protagonista de cada espacio y las visuales son el ingreso a cada escenario que se ha desarrollado con un previo estudio del lugar y sus características.
Otra motivación, para esta investigación académica, es poner a prueba y profundizar los conocimientos de interés adquiridos en la carrera universitaria, poniendo un hincapié a la arquitectura paramétrica y cómo la programación evolutiva se aplica en ésta. Ya que, la tecnología sigue avanzando cada día, brindándonos la oportunidad de utilizar herramientas que nos permiten resolver de manera más eficaz y eficiente las incógnitas en el desarrollo del diseño. Este territorio es nuevo, por la tanto, aún se siguen investigaciones y es, en su mayoría, experimental. Siendo un tema poco explorado en nuestro país por la limitación de información e investigación.En aquel momento, todo fue dando sentido y poco a poco se fue originado el tema. Empezó a tomar nuestros sentidos e incluso a tenerle una cierta pasión y entusiasmo a nuestra ocurrencia.
La necesidad de un espacio que vaya acorde a la realidad de la ciudad en cuanto a dimensión, además, que genere un impacto positivo para los usuarios. Que no se vuelvan un contraste entre la metrópolis y Necrópolis. Sino, todo lo contrario, que se unifiquen y genere una interrelación. Tomando este concepto de gran fuerza que se refiere a: Vida y muerte interactuando.

Compiuta un'ampia digressione di carattere interdisciplinare in tema di suicidio tale da abbracciare considerazioni di natura sociologica, letteraria, filosofica, storica e giuridica, si è proceduto ad una valutazione delle forme di repressione concepite in passato per rispondere a condotte agevolatrici di tale gesto, giungendosi da ultimo a ponderare il dibattito sorto in seno alle scuole penalistiche dell'epoca, le soluzioni adottate dai Codici Zanardelli e Rocco nonché i rilievi dottrinali da esse immediatamente stimolati. Tale premessa si è rivelata imprescindibile per un'approfondita analisi del procedimento a carico di Marco Cappato, attingendo da esso interessanti spunti di riflessione riguardanti, prima ancora che le disposizioni penali in materia di fine vita, i principi costituzionali e i valori tatti da simili scelte terminali. La riflessione sulla dignità, così come quella inerente i confini dell'autodeterminazione in materia sanitaria, ha condotto a soppesare la possibilità di disciplinare trattamenti di eutanasia attiva diretta, confrontandosi con i numerosi ostacoli opposti e chiamando in causa la nozione di “diritto a morire”. Il terzo capitolo, riservando alcune considerazioni preliminari al rapporto fra Diritto e morale e alle funzioni tradizionalmente assolte dalla sanzione penale, propone l'elaborazione di una scriminante procedurale tale da riconoscere il carattere di liceità di pratiche di “aiuto medico a morire”. L'analisi dei suoi requisiti operativi è affiancata ad alcune riflessioni in tema di omicidio pietatis causa, seguite dall'annosa questione relativa all'esercizio dell'obiezione di coscienza da parte del personale sanitario e da alcuni profili di responsabilità del medico coinvolto in procedure di nuova concezione. Infine, l'esigenza di un'indagine attenta al metodo comparatistico ha reso ineludibile il riferimento a due recenti stimoli legislativo e giurisprudenziale, rispettivamente rappresentati dalla proposta di Ley Orgánica presentata al Congreso spagnolo (approvata in via definitiva il 18 marzo 2021) e dalla sentenza con cui il Bundesverfassungsgericht ha dichiarato l'illegittimità costituzionale del § 217 StGB in materia di agevolazione al suicidio prestata in forma commerciale.

Full textAbstract:
This study aims at investigating the representations of Persia in a number of canonical and non-canonical texts in English literature. The theoretical framework comes from Edward Said’s analysis of orientalism. It is argued that the case of Persia instances the heterogeneous and striated character of orientalism (‘representations’ rather than ‘representation’ in the title). It is shown that while a number of relatively similar set of motifs and topoi, mainly derived from classical tradition and contemporary travel writing, circulate in the works of the three Renaissance authors included (Spenser, Marlowe, Milton), they are differently inflected and serve different thematic and ideological purposes. It is also suggested that the somewhat nascent orientalism of these authors develops into a more fully-fledged one in Thomas Moore’s Lalla Rookh where a basically Romantic notion of Persia as an exotic land is overridden by its construction as a realm fallen to foreign domination and cultural dispossession so as to displace the poet’s radical political views. Finally, it is shown how the motifs and topoi teased out in the analysis of the matter of Persia in the works of the authors preceding James Morier find their characteristic form and their most effective articulation in his fiction, especially the Hajji Baba novels which arrogate the representation of the ‘real’ Persia. Central to the analysis is the point that though Said’s theorisation of orientalism is immensely useful, and essential, to any consideration of the orientalist canon, issues such as masquerading and displacing as well as the specificities of each text, of its context, and of the object of representation, compound the notion of orientalism as merely a mode of Western domination and hegemony.

Kita Morio has been one of the most successful humorists of Japan's postwar period, but his work has received little attention from scholars. The intent of this study is to provide an introduction to the humorous essays of Kita Morio. In particular, after the principles of the humor mechanism are established, the nature of the essays as a type of I-novel is examined. The focus is then turned to the authorial persona that Kita uses in his humorous essays, and an overview of that manufactured fictional character and the world he inhabits is created. Finally, five individual essays are examined in the context created by the preceding chapters, with particular attention given to the manner in which humor functions in the essays, as well as the manner in which the reader can find comfort in them. Translations of the five essays examined in the final chapter are provided in the Appendix.

Full textAbstract:
Memoria para optar al título de PeriodistaRoberto Lagos Flores deseaba ir a vivir a Chiloé con su madre, Víctor Fabián Díaz quería realizar el Servicio Militar, Paulina Gómez se había propuesto terminar su colegio, Víctor Hugo Barría estaba contento porque iba a estudiar Acuicultura en Temuco y Rodrigo Barichivich salió a comprar pan para tomar desayuno con su madre. Ninguno de estos jóvenes pudo cumplir sus deseos. Todos aparecieron muertos en Puerto Aysén en extrañas circunstancias y la Justicia determinó que se habían suicidado. Estos decesos, junto a casi una decena de otras muertes, formaron parte del llamado Caso Aysén, polémico y emblemático puzzle policial que conmocionó a la opinión pública desde 1997 hasta 2002. Chile aún no sabía de la desaparición de Jorge Matute Johns ni de los terribles asesinatos cometidos en Alto Hospicio por Julio Pérez Silva, sin embargo, y al igual que en los crímenes acontecidos en la Región de Tarapacá, las humildes familias de las víctimas de Aysén también sintieron la indiferencia y el desprecio de las autoridades. Pasaron dos Gobiernos de la Concertación y ninguno de ellos mostró voluntad para resolver las muertes. De hecho, en algún momento, esa falta de interés se convirtió en algo ofensivo: En el período de Ricardo Lagos, los familiares de las víctimas demandaron reunirse con la entonces primera dama, Luisa Durán, pero a cambio, la asistente de la esposa del ex Presidente ofreció regalarle a las familias tres tortas. En un comienzo, el polémico juez Carlos Klapp estuvo a cargo del caso. En la ciudad, el magistrado era famoso por su excesivo gusto por las fiestas, el alcohol y las drogas. De hecho, en varias ocasiones el funcionario habría llegado a trabajar ebrio. Todas estas acusaciones llegaron a su punto más alto cuando fue fotografiado desnudo y drogado compartiendo con prostitutas. La imagen fue portada en varios diarios nacionales y motivó a la Comisión de Ética y Control Disciplinario del Poder Judicial a trasladar al juez a Castro, en Chiloé. Además, en la ciudad se hablaba de la existencia de un polémico video donde aparecían, aparte de Klapp, varias autoridades importantes de la zona, tales como funcionarios del Poder Judicial, trabajadores de la Municipalidad y miembros de Carabineros realizando una fiesta en un conocido prostíbulo de Puerto Aysén. Quien supuestamente tenía el registro audiovisual en su poder apareció muerto de forma sorpresiva y su fallecimiento fue catalogado como suicidio por la Justicia. Pero Klapp no fue el único funcionario con un actuar reprochable. Alicia Araneda, ministra en visita a cargo del caso, incluso llegó a asegurar que el Puente Presidente Carlos Ibáñez había sido el culpable de los decesos de los jóvenes al ejercer una suerte de atracción fatal sobre ellos y propuso, como una medida innovadora, poner rejas a la estructura. Las autoridades y la prensa nacional y local parecían estar de acuerdo con esta teoría. Sin embargo, el resto de los aiseninos nunca se conformó y aún asegura que hay algo detrás de estas muertes.

Full textAbstract:
In this dissertation, we examine mechanics of rhythmic tracheal compression (RTC) in the darkling beetle, Zophobas morio. In Chapter 2, we studied the relationship between hemolymph pressure and tracheal collapse to test the hypothesis that pressure is a driving mechanism for RTC. We found that tracheae collapse as pressure increases, but other physiological factors in the body may be affecting tracheal compression in live beetles. Additionally, as the tracheae compress, they do so in varying spatial patterns across the insect body. In chapter 3, we examined spatial variations in the taenidial spacing, stiffness, and tracheal thickness along the length of the tracheae. We related variations in Young's modulus and taenidial spacing with measurements of collapse dimples and found that spatial patterns of Young's modulus correlate with dimensions of collapse dimples. This correlation suggests an intuitive link between tracheal stiffness variations and the unique patterns observed in compressing tracheae. Lastly, in chapter 4, we studied the non-uniform collapse patterns in 3-D. By manually pressurizing the hemocoel and imaging using synchrotron microcomputed tomography (SR-µCT), we reconstructed the tracheal system in its compressed state. While previous studies used 2-D x-ray images to examine collapse morphology, ours is the first to quantify collapse patterns in 3-D and compare with previous 2-D quantification methods. Our method is also the first to make a direct measure of tracheal volume as the tracheal system compresses, similar to the phenomenon that occurs during rhythmic tracheal compression.Doctor of Philosophy
Insects have long been a source of curiosity and inspiration for scientists and engineers. The insect respiratory system stands as an example of a seemingly complex oxygen delivery system that operates with relative simplicity. As opposed to mammals and other vertebrates, the insect respiratory system does not deliver oxygen using blood. Instead, insects possess a massive network of hollow tracheal tubes that are distributed throughout the body. Air enters spiracular valves along the length of the insect body, travels through the tracheal tube network, and is delivered directly to the tissues. In some insects, the tracheae compress and expand, driving flow of respiratory gasses. However, unlike vertebrate lungs, there are no muscles directly associated with the tracheal system that would drive this tracheal compression, and exactly how this behavior occurs is not fully understood. In this dissertation, we examined pulsatory increases in blood pressure as a possible mechanism that underlies these tracheal compressions in the darkling beetle, Zophobas morio. Additionally, as the tracheae compress, they do so with varying spatial patterns across the insect body. Because tracheae are complex and non-uniform composite tubes, we examined spatial variations in the microstructure, stiffness, and tracheal thickness along the length of the trachea. Lastly, we visualized the variable collapse patterns in three dimensions using synchrotron micro-computed tomography combined with manual pressurization of the hemocoel. While previous studies used two-dimensional x-ray images to quantify tracheal collapse patterns, this work represents the first three-dimensional study. Understanding tracheal collapse mechanics, material properties, and their relationships with the circulatory system can help to gain an understanding of how insects create complex fluid flows within the body using relatively simple mechanisms.

The class gastropoda exhibits virtually all kinds of forage habits, among them: herbivorous, detritivore, suspensivore, carnivorous-predators, scavengers and parasites. The gastropodo Pugilina morio belongs to the family Melongenidae. This family has representatives that occur in almost every tropical and temperate seas. P. morio is the only species of Melongenidae represented in Brazil, presenting thick populations in some regions of the country, inhabiting estuarine zones, being an efficient bivalves predator. Very little is known about the forage preferences of P. morio and its predation strategies in function of the kind of the prey, so in this work we tried to make a study of its forage strategies, determining the forage items that compose its diet, determining its forage preferences and analyzing its predation strategies. The prey species used in laboratory were composed of the bivalve molluscs Anomalocardia brasiliana, Crassostrea rhizophorae, Iphigenia brasiliana, being all of them recognized and consumed as preys, showing that P. morio could be a generalist predator. The reproduction period of P. morio goes from July to November and in this period the female species don’t feed or feed very little, being possible evidence this fact in laboratory conditions. It could be observed in the predator behavior of P. morio that the strategy used by itself was the suffocation of its preys using its foot or even using its shell to open or to break the valves of its preys sucking all the visceral mass of them.
A classe Gastropoda exibe virtualmente todos os tipos de hábitos alimentares, dentre eles: herbívoros, detritívoros, suspensívoros, carnívoros predadores, necrófagos e parasitas. O gastrópode Pugilina morio pertence à família Melongenidae. Esta família tem representantes que ocorrem em quase todos os mares tropicais e temperados. Pugilina morio é a única espécie de Melongenidae representada no Brasil, apresentando populações densas em algumas regiões do país, habitando zonas estuarinas, sendo um eficiente predador de bivalves. Pouco se sabe sobre as preferências alimentares de P. morio e as suas estratégias de predação em função do tipo de presa, então nesse trabalho procurou-se fazer um estudo de suas estratégias alimentares, determinando os itens alimentares que compõem sua dieta, suas preferências alimentares e analisando suas estratégias de predação. As espécies de presas utilizadas em laboratório foram compostas dos moluscos bivalves Anomalocardia brasiliana, Crassostrea rhizophorae e Iphigenia brasiliana, sendo todas elas reconhecidas e consumidas como presas, mostrando que P. morio poderia ser um predador generalista. O período de reprodução de P. morio vai de Julho a Novembro, no estuário do rio Ceará, nesse período as fêmeas da espécie não se alimentam ou se alimentam pouco, sendo possível evidenciar esse fato em condições de laboratório. Pode-se observar, no comportamento predatório de P. morio, que a estratégia utilizada pelo mesmo era a asfixia de suas presas através de seu pé, ou ainda a utilização de sua concha para abrir ou quebrar as valvas de suas presas, sugando toda a massa visceral das mesmas.

Full textAbstract:
Sexual dimorphism is the phenotypic difference between males and females of the same species, but how these phenotypic differences arise is largely unstudied at the molecular level. It is understood that sexual selection, or competition for mates, drives sexual dimorphism, but more recently it has been suggested that resource partitioning, or niche pressure, may exert evolutionary pressure, leading to sexual dimorphism. Many members of the sarseilloid family of ostracods exhibit sexual dimorphism of their lateral eyes with males having an image forming eye, while females have a rudimentary eye limited to sensing light and dark. Ostracods progress through five instar stages of development before becoming an adult, and by studying expression levels of selected developmental genes at instar IV, V adult stages and embryos, the underlying expression pattern change that leads to phenotypic differences can be seen. By comparing the differences in expression between two sarseilloid species, Euphilomedes carcharodonta and Euphilomedes morini , we can see how these species develop their specific phenotypes. In E. carcharodonta and E. morini , the genes Sine oculis, Dachshund, Seven in absentia, Chaoptic, Protein Kinase C and Opsin show different expression patterns between groups. The highest expression levels of Sine oculis are in developing embryos when compared to other stages of development. Dachshund, Seven in absentia, Chaoptic, Protein Kinase C and Opsin show significantly different patterns in males or noticeable male trends, demonstrating that these genes are important in the development and function of the sexually dimorphic lateral eye. E. carcharodonta and E. morini show similar gene expression patterns suggesting that these patterns have been conserved over evolutionary time to produce the observed dimorphic morphology.

El mero rojo Epinephelus morio es una especie hermafrodita protógino en peligro de extinción en el Sureste del Golfo de México y Caribe mexicanos debido a la pesca. La reversión sexual es una práctica común en acuicultura para la obtención de machos de pequeña talla para resolver la reproducción en cautividad. Se utilizaron implantes silásticos de 17 alfa metiltestosterona (MT) (2.5 mg kg-1) y Testosterona (T) (1.0 mg kg-1) para determinar mejor esteroide para la reversión sexual de hembras inmaduras a machos y posteriormente las dosis totales de 5.0 y 7.5 mg kg-1 de MT en un segundo año reproductivo consecutivo. Se evalúo el crecimiento, consumo de alimento, histología de la gónada, concentraciones de T, 11 keto testosterona (11KT) y estradiol (E2) en plasma sanguíneo en cada condición experimental y durante un año en cautividad. Sólo la MT logró, por primera vez, la transición tardía de los meros de 433 g de peso promedio y 31.6 cm de talla (LF). La dosis de 7.5 mg kg-1 logró un mayor avance en la reversión sin embargo en ninguno de los casos se obtuvo esperma por masaje abdominal. Los niveles hormonas de los peces durante la reversión sexual mostraron niveles de T por encima de los de 11KT y E2. La T osciló entre 326 a 647.15 pg ml-1, la 11KT entre 100.36 a 334 mg kg-1 y el E2 entre 110 a 401.07 mg kg-1. La relación entre estas concentraciones hormonales cambia según el avance de desarrollo del testículo. La reversión sexual por segundo año consecutivo estimuló a la disminución de las concentraciones de Estradiol en sangre e incrementó las de 11 metiltestosterona. Se logró estabular un grupo de 14 ejemplares de mero rojo de organismos adultos silvestres y revertidos a macho en el laboratorio.The red grouper Epinephelus morio is a protogynous hermaphrodite species endangered in the southeast of the Gulf of Mexico and Mexican Caribbean due to fishing. Sex reversal is a common practice in aquaculture to produce small-sized males. Silastic implants of 17 alpha methyltestosterone (MT) (2.5 mg kg-1) and Testosterone (T) (1.0 mg kg-1) were used to determine the best steroid for sex reversal of immature males to females and later total dose of 5.0 and 7.5 mg kg-1 of MT in the second reproductive year was used. Growth, feed intake, gonad histology, concentrations of T, 11 keto testosterone (11KT) and estradiol (E2) in blood plasma in each experimental condition and for a year in captivity were evaluated. Only the MT achieved, for the first time, late transition from grouper of 433 g body weight and 31.6 cm legth (FL) for the first time. The dose of 7.5 mg kg-1 achieved further progress in reversing but in neither case sperm was obtained by stripping. During sexual reversion, T showed levels of above 11KT and E2. The T was from 326 to 647.15 pg ml-1, the 11KT 100.36 to 334 mg kg-1 and the E2 110 to 401.07 mg kg-1. The relationship between these hormone levels changed according to the progress of development of the testis. Sex reversal for the second year spurred the decline in blood concentrations of estradiol and increased 11-methyltestosterone. A broodstock group of 14 red grouper of wild adult and reversal male in laboratory was formed.

Memoria (licenciado en ciencias jurídicas y sociales)La muerte ha sido uno de los grandes misterios de la humanidad desde sus inicios. La constatación empírica de que todo ser vivo cumple un ciclo y muere, ha llevado al ser humano a desarrollar una serie de creencias, muchas veces ligadas a lo mágico, con la intención de entender este usualmente incomprensible fenómeno. El hecho de que la muerte sea inevitable para todos, lleva a que el tema no pueda serle indiferente a nadie. Con el correr del tiempo, y junto con el progreso del pensamiento científico, la muerte ha pasado a ser comprendida como un proceso biológico que constituye el fin del ciclo vital. Sin embargo, hasta el día de hoy, la definición de lo que debe entenderse como muerte no es del todo pacífica. Esto dice relación con los diversos aspectos prácticos y éticos asociados a ella. Nos adentraremos a continuación en el debate y profundización de temas como la conceptualización de la muerte y su debida dignidad o el Derecho a Morir.

Previous issue date: 2008-02-29The genus Bombus in the entire world it has an ecological and economic importance; these bees are being used as pollinators of many cultures as tomatoe, pumpkin, strawberry among others. But the fact of that these bees have some levels of aggressiveness, they make that its nests are destroyed leading to the extinguishing risk. Many works already had been developed for the knowledge of the biology of this group. The objective of this study was to study some aspects of the establishment of colonies in captivity conditions and of the reproductive biology of B. morio and B. atratus. Some methods of induce of oviposition of queens of the two species had been made. Males of different ages of B. atratus had been dissected and the age of sexual maturation was determined. Also some aspects in the reproduction and activation of the ovaries of queens in absence of mating of B. morio had been studied, through the histology and histochemistry tests. The results had contributed for the common knowledge of the rearing in captivity and the reproductive biology of the studied species. It was determined that the introduction of immature, of workers or a queen sister (in these species), induce the queens to star oviposition. Of the 110 tested queens, 80% had star oviposition and produced immature. Only two queens (B. atratus) obtained to produce adults (males). Males of B. atratus from the seventh day of life, the testicles were total reduced and the seminal vesicles are full of spermatozoa, showing that in this age is sexually mature. This suggests that in the attempts of mating in laboratory, male of this age should be used. In the case of the queens, the study of behaviour of queens and ovarian development showed that its ovaries are active from five days after the emergency thus remaining for until more than 30 days. This suggests that for attempts of mating in laboratory, queens of 10 days up to 40 days of age should be used. The results of the observation of nests and start colonies from queens, showed that queens of these species have a long time of activation of its ovaries (more of 30 days) and as consequence of this, the queens can remain more time in the nests and to star oviposition without mating. The presence of immature or individuals of the same specie or the other species the same genus makes that it accelerate the process of start oviposition. It is necessary to make studies related the alimentary diets to guarantee the continuity in the produced colonies and of the queens that start oviposition in the laboratory.
No mundo inteiro o gênero Bombus tem uma importância ecológica e econômica, uma vez que estas abelhas são polinizadores de muitas culturas como tomate, abóbora, morango entre outras. O fato de que estas abelhas serem de uma forma geral agressivas, faz com que seus ninhos sejam destruídos levando ao risco de extinção. Muitos trabalhos já foram desenvolvidos para o conhecimento da biologia desse grupo. O objetivo deste estudo foi estudar alguns aspectos do estabelecimento de colônias em condições de cativeiro e da biologia reprodutiva de B. morio e B. atratus. Foram feitos vários métodos de iniciação de postura das rainhas das duas espécies. Machos de diferentes idades de B. atratus foram dissecados e a idade de maturação sexual foi determinada. Também foram estudados alguns aspectos na reprodução e ativação dos ovários de rainhas de B. morio em ausência de cópula, através da histologia e testes histoquímicos. Os resultados contribuíram para o conhecimento geral da criação em cativeiro e da biologia reprodutiva das espécies estudadas. Determinou-se que a introdução seja de imaturos, de operárias ou de uma rainha irmã (nas duas espécies), induzem as rainhas a iniciarem postura. Das 110 rainhas testadas, 80% iniciaram postura e produziram imaturos. Apenas duas rainhas (B. atratus) conseguiram produzir adultos (machos). Machos de B. atratus a partir do sétimo dia de vida os testículos estavam regredidos e as vesículas seminais totalmente cheias de espermatozóides, mostrando que nesta esta idade já se estão sexualmente maduros. Sugere-se que nas tentativas de acasalamento em laboratório sejam utilizados machos dessa idade. No caso das rainhas, o estudo do comportamento e do desenvolvimento ovariano mostrou que seus ovários são ativos a partir de cinco dias após a emergência permanecendo assim por até mais de 30 dias. Sugere-se que para tentativas de acasalamento em laboratório sejam utilizadas rainhas de 10 dias até 40 dias de idade. Os resultados tanto da parte de acompanhamento dos ninhos e iniciação de colônias a partir de rainhas quanto dos estudos histológicos nos mostram que as rainhas destas espécies têm um tempo longo de ativação de seus ovários (+ de 30 dias) e como conseqüência disto as rainhas podem permanecer mais tempo nos ninhos e iniciar a postura sem ter copulado antes. A presença de indivíduos ou imaturos das mesmas ou outras espécies faz que acelere o processo de inicio de postura. É necessário fazer estudos aprofundando relacionados a dietas alimentares para garantir a continuidade nas colônias produzidas e das rainhas que iniciam postura no laboratório.

Full textAbstract:
Inventée par Jules César en 46 av. J. -C. , la naumachie désigne chez les Romains le spectacle du combat naval donné à différentes échelles ainsi que l'arène conçue pour son usage, un vaste bassin construit à Rome et sur lequel s'affrontent deux flottes de condamnés à mort ou naumachiarii. La naumachie représente l'instrumentalisation du spectacle de combat au service du pouvoir. Cette dernière apparaît à la fin de la République dans le développement des supports de " propagande " des généraux. Grande démonstration militaire exprimant la victoire du chef de guerre protégé des dieux, la naumachie symbolise aussi la conquête passée et future ainsi que la domination sur le monde habité. A l'époque impériale, la naumachie continue d'être ainsi instrumentalisée par les empereurs et s'enrichit par le message d'une continuité dynastique et d'une légitimation du pouvoir au moment des crises survenant au Ier siècle ap. J. -C. Par les contraintes spatiales et visuelles que pose la naumachie, l'arène navale subit par ailleurs une remarquable évolution. Après la pièce d'eau monumentale de César et celle d'Auguste, qui peut être localisée au cœur du quartier du Trastévère à Rome, la naumachie va être introduite à partir du Ier siècle ap. J. -C. Dans l'amphithéâtre à Rome et en province. A la fin du Ier siècle ap. J. -C. Et au début du IIe siècle, elle connaît l'aboutissement de son modèle architectural ainsi que la dernière étape de son évolution avec le spectacle naval de gladiateurs

Els estudiants de Medicina són joves que, des que entren a la facultat, treballen enmig de la pèrdua i provenen d’una societat que no té cultura de mort i l’amaga. Entenem que això pot representar un xoc important en la seva realització personal en construcció i en la seva capacitació professional dedicada a tenir cura de l’altre i a ajudar-lo, si s’escau, a ben morir. La finalitat del nostre estudi és detectar, descriure i analitzar com els estudiants de la facultat de Medicina de la Universitat de Lleida afronten la seva pròpia mort, la mort de l’altre, el seu propi procés de morir i el procés de morir de l’altre. Metodologia: S’ha realitzat un estudi consistent en enquestar alumnes de Medicina en l’interval dels cursos acadèmics compresos entre 1998 i 2014. La mostra ha estat de 676 estudiants dels cursos 1r, 3r, 4t i 6è. Els instruments utilitzat per a la recollida de dades han estat un qüestionari sociopsicobiogràfic, l’escala Revisada Collett-Lester de Por a la Mort i Por al Procés de Morir, una escala d’afrontament a la mort i una escala de competències percebudes. El dossier elaborat costava al voltant de 70 minuts en ésser completat.
Resultats: L’anàlisi de les variables enquestades indica que l’ansietat dels estudiants de Medicina enfront la mort i el procés de morir té correlacions fortes amb el gènere, l’edat, les experiències vitals i la seva psicobiografia, presentant, en diversos casos, diferències estadísticament significatives. També s’han trobat diferències significatives entre la Por a la Mort i la Por a Morir dels estudiants de Medicina entre els alumnes dels dos Plans d’Estudis que abasta la mostra (pre i post Bolonya). Els alumnes que pertanyen al Pla Bolonya, respecte al pla d’estudis anterior, presenten menys Por a la Mort i al Procés de Morir.Los estudiantes de Medicina son jóvenes que, desde que entran a la facultad, trabajan en medio de la pérdida y provienen de una sociedad que no tiene cultura de muerte y la esconde.

Resultados: El análisis de las variables encuestadas indica que la ansiedad de los estudiantes de Medicina frente la muerte y el proceso de morir tiene correlaciones fuertes con el género, la edad, las experiencias vitales y su psicobiografía, presentando, en varios casos, diferencias estadísticamente significativas. También se han encontrado diferencias significativas entre el Miedo a la Muerte y el Miedo a Morir de los estudiantes de Medicina entre los alumnos de los dos Planes de Estudios que abarca la muestra (pre y post Boloña). Los alumnos que pertenecen al Plan Boloña, respecto al plan de estudios anterior, presentan menos Miedo a la Muerte y al Proceso de Morir.
Medical students are young people who, since entering the faculty, they working among loss and come from a society that has no culture of death and even hides it. We understand that this may represent a major shock in their personal fulfilment under construction and their professional training dedicated to caring for others and help, if necessary, in the end of life care. The purpose of our study is to identify, describe and analyse how the students of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Lleida face his own death, the death of others, his own dying process and the process of dying of others. Methodology: A study has been conducted consisting of surveying medical students in the range of academic years between 1998 and 2014. The sample included 676 students in grades 1st, 3rd, 4th and 6th. The instruments used for data collection are a sociopsychobiographical questionnaire, the Revised Collett-Lester Fear of Death and Dying Process Fear scale, a scale of confronting death and a scale of perceived competence. The dossier elaborated took 70 minutes to be fulfilled. Results: The analysis of the variables surveyed indicated that anxiety of medical students facing death and the dying process has strong correlations with gender, age, life experiences and psycho-biography, presenting, in several cases, statistically significant differences. We also found significant differences between the fear of death and the fear of dying of medical students following the two curricula included in the sample (pre and post Bologna process). Students belonging to Bologna curriculum, with respect to the previous curriculum, have less fear of death and the process of dying.

Els diferents col·lectius de professionals, les experiències personals viscudes anteriorment, els valors i creences, l'edat, el sexe i la formació creen una diversitat de punts de vista i maneres d'actuar diferents davant d'un malalt terminal. Aquesta divergència comporta una falta de cohesió en la tasca professional i una manca de criteris d'actuació unànimes. La finalitat d'aquest projecte és conèixer quins són els criteris assistencials per a una mort digna. Per això, els objectius concrets que es persegueixen en aquest estudi són: analitzar les actituds del personal sanitari davant la mort dels malalts i fomentar els criteris de qualitat assistencial que haurà d'utilitzar l'equip interdisciplinari amb la finalitat d'abordar terapèuticament el procés de la mort del pacient pal·liatiu. L'estudi segueix un disseny que combina el mètode qualitatiu amb el quantitatiu. A nivell quantitatiu, la mostra ha estat formada per un total de 260 participants (17 homes i 243 dones), l'instrument utilitzat ha estat un qüestionari de 16 ítems que avalua com s'està realitzant actualment l'atenció al malalt terminal, competències del professional (coneixements, habilitats, actituds, sentiments, implicacions emocionals del professional) i com s'hauria de realitzar l'atenció al malalt terminal; posteriorment les dades s'han analitzat mitjançant el programa estadístic SPSS.V15. A nivell qualitatiu, van col·laborar en l'estudi 6 participants (2 homes i 4 dones) en els que s'ha aplicat una entrevista estructurada, semidirigida i individual que posteriorment s'ha analitzat mitjançant el programa Atlas.ti. Els resultats a nivell quantitatiu indiquen que dels 260 professionals sanitaris enquestats hi ha una actitud negativa davant la mort del 24.2%, aquest fet ens diu que existeix quasi una quarta part dels professionals que no tenen coneixement dels criteris per a una mort digna. Per altra banda, els resultats de les entrevistes indiquen una convergència de criteris alhora de definir una bona i una mala actitud professional. Així doncs, cal canviar les actituds o estils professionals en l'acompanyament a la mort; com més assertiva sigui la nostra actitud i quanta més capacitat tinguem per millorar l'estat d'ànim, major serà la qualitat de vida de les persones que ens deixen i ens han dipositat la seva confiança, una confiança que no podem transgredir, doncs es tracta d'un dret humà.Los diferentes colectivos de profesionales, las experiencias personales vividas anteriormente, los valores y creencias, la edad, el sexo y la formación crean una diversidad de puntos de vista y maneras de actuar diferentes ante un enfermo Terminal. Esta divergencia comporta una falta de cohesión en la tarea profesional y una falta de criterios de actuación unánimes. La finalidad de este proyecto es conocer cuáles son los criterios asistenciales para una muerte digna. Por ello, los objetivos concretos que se persiguen en este estudio son: analizar las actitudes del personal sanitario ante la muerte de los enfermos y fomentar los criterios de calidad asistencial que tendrá que utilizar el equipo interdisciplinario con la finalidad de abordar terapéuticamente el proceso de la muerte del paciente paliativo. El estudio sigue un diseño que combina el método cualitativo con el cuantitativo. Según el método cuantitativo, la muestra ha sido formada por un total de 260 participantes (17 hombres y 243 mujeres), el instrumento utilizado ha sido un cuestionario de 16 ítems que baraja como se está realizando actualmente la atención al enfermo terminal, competencias del profesional (conocimientos, habilidades, actitudes, sentimientos, implicaciones emocionales del profesional) y como se debería realizar la atención al enfermo terminal; posteriormente los datos se han analizado mediante el programa estadístico SPSS.V15. Según el método cualitativo, colaboraron en el estudio 6 participantes (2 hombres y 4 mujeres) en los que se ha aplicado una entrevista estructurada, semidirigida e individual que posteriormente se ha analizado mediante el programa Atlas.ti. Los resultados cuantitativos indican que de los 260 profesionales sanitarios encuestados presentaron una actitud negativa ante la muerte del 24,2%, este hecho nos indica que hay casi una cuarta parte de los profesionales que no tienen información de los criterios asistenciales para una muerte digna. Por otra parte, los resultados de las entrevistas indican una convergencia de criterios al definir una buena y una mala actitud profesional. Así pues, es preciso cambiar las actitudes o estilos profesionales en el acompañamiento a la muerte; cuanto más asertiva sea nuestra actitud y cuanta más capacidad tengamos para mejorar el estado de ánimo, mayor será la calidad de vida de las personas que nos dejan y nos han depositado su confianza, una confianza que no podemos transgredir, pues se trata de un derecho humano.
The different professional groups, previous personal experiences, values and beliefs, age, gender and training bring about a wide range of points of view and ways of interacting with the terminally ill. This criteria divergence entails a lack of cohesion in the professional task and a lack of unanimous performance. The aim of this project is to get to know which are the welfare criteria for a dignified death. Hence, the specific objectives in this research are: to analyze the attitude of the public health staff towards the patient's death and promote the health care quality criteria to be used by the interdisciplinary team to tackle the death process in the palliative patient. The study is designed as to combine the qualitative and quantitative method. At a quantitative stage, the sample consisted of 260 participants (17 men and 243 women). The evaluation tool was a questionnaire consisting of 16 items which evaluated the attention on the terminally ill, the professional competence: knowledge, ability, attitude, feelings, emotional implications as well as how to assist the terminally ill. The data was then analyzed by SPSS.V15 statistic programme. Six participants took part at a qualitative level (2 men and 4 women) who underwent a structured , semi directed and individual interview which was subsequently analyzed by Atlas.ti programme. The results at a quantitative level indicate that 24.2% out of 260 health care workers surveyed have a negative attitude towards death. This fact shows that almost a fourth part of the professionals don't know the criteria to be applied for a dignified death. On the other hand, the interview results indicate a criteria convergence when defining a good and a bad professional attitude. Therefore, the professional attitudes or styles in supporting a dignified death must be changed. The more assertive our attitude is, and the more capacity to improve our mood we have, the better quality of life will the dying people have. This trust we cannot betray for it is a human right.

Full textAbstract:
Abdominal pumping is a widespread behavior in insects. However, there remains ambiguity surrounding the abdominal pumping behavior, both in terms of describing what exactly abdominal pumping is (i.e., if various modes of operation exist) and also what function(s) abdominal pumping serves (and if function is conserved across groups of insects). In some insects respiratory patterns have been correlated with abdominal movements, although the specific mechanical effects of these movements on the animal\'s respiratory system are generally unknown. Conversely, some insects (such as beetles, ants, and crickets) create convection in the respiratory system by compressing their tracheal tubes, yet the underlying physiological mechanisms of tracheal collapse are also unknown. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between abdominal pumping and the compression of tracheal tubes in the darkling beetle, Zophobas morio. I observed the movements of the abdomen and tracheal tubes using synchrotron x-ray imaging and video cameras, while concurrently monitoring CO2 expiration. I identified and characterized two distinct abdominal movements differentiated by the synchrony (the pinch movement) or lack of synchrony (the wave movement) of abdominal tergite movement. Tracheal tube compressions (and corresponding CO2 pulses) occurred concurrently with every pinch movement. This study provides evidence of a mechanistic linkage between abdominal movements and tracheal tube compressions in the ground beetle, Zophobas morio.Master of Science
