PHYSICAL ACTIVITY AND DIABETES
No full textOvaj završni rad istražuje povezanost između tjelesne aktivnosti i dijabetesa, naglašavajući ključnu ulogu tjelesne aktivnosti u upravljanju dijabetesom i poboljšanju kvalitete života oboljelih. Dijabetes je kronična bolest koja se javlja kada tijelo ne može učinkovito koristiti inzulin ili ga ne proizvodi u dovoljnim količinama, što rezultira visokim razinama glukoze u krvi. Glavni nalaz istraživanja je da redovita tjelesna aktivnost značajno poboljšava kontrolu glukoze u krvi povećavajući osjetljivost na inzulin. Osobe koje redovito vježbaju imaju niže razine HbA1c, što ukazuje na bolju dugoročnu kontrolu glukoze. Tjelesna aktivnost također smanjuje rizik od kardiovaskularnih bolesti, koje su česte komplikacije kod osoba s dijabetesom. Uz to, vježbanje poboljšava opće zdravlje i kvalitetu života, smanjujući stres, poboljšavajući mentalno zdravlje i povećavajući razinu energije. Rad također analizira specifične preporuke za tjelesnu aktivnost različitim dobnim skupinama i spolovima. Djeca s dijabetesom tipa 1 trebaju najmanje 60 minuta umjerene do intenzivne tjelesne aktivnosti dnevno, dok starije osobe s dijabetesom tipa 2 mogu imati koristi od kombinacije aerobnih vježbi i treninga otpornosti. Unatoč brojnim prednostima, izazovi poput rizika od hipoglikemije zahtijevaju pažljivu edukaciju i prilagodbu terapije za sigurno vježbanje. Rad ističe neizostavnu ulogu tjelesne aktivnosti u upravljanju dijabetesom. Edukacija pacijenata, podrška zdravstvenih stručnjaka i prilagodba programa vježbanja ključni su za uspješno upravljanje bolešću i poboljšanje kvalitete života oboljelih. U današnjem svijetu, smanjenje tjelesne aktivnosti zbog suvremenog načina života predstavlja značajan zdravstveni problem, te je potrebno hitno povećati svijest o važnosti redovitog vježbanja i promicati zdrave životne navike za bolju budućnost svih članova društva.This thesis explores the connection between physical activity and diabetes, emphasizing the key role of physical activity in managing diabetes and improving the quality of life of patients. Diabetes is a chronic disease that occurs when the body cannot use insulin effectively or does not produce enough insulin, resulting in high blood glucose levels. The main finding of the research is that regular physical activity significantly improves blood glucose control by increasing insulin sensitivity. People who exercise regularly have lower HbA1c levels, indicating better long-term glucose control. Physical activity also reduces the risk of cardiovascular diseases, which are common complications in people with diabetes. In addition, exercise improves overall health and quality of life, reducing stress, improving mental health and increasing energy levels. The paper also analyzes specific recommendations for physical activity for different age groups and genders. Children with type 1 diabetes need at least 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity per day, while older adults with type 2 diabetes may benefit from a combination of aerobic exercise and resistance training. Despite the many benefits, challenges such as the risk of hypoglycemia require careful education and therapy adjustments for safe exercise. The work highlights the indispensable role of physical activity in the management of diabetes. Patient education, support from healthcare professionals and adjustment of exercise programs are key to successful disease management and improving the quality of life of patients. In today's world, the reduction of physical activity due to the modern lifestyle represents a significant health problem, and it is necessary to urgently increase awareness of the importance of regular exercise and promote healthy lifestyle habits for a better future for all members of society

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
