    In this article the Spanish translations of eight volumes of the successful series Hexe Lilli - Kika Superbruja [Lilly the Witch] by German author Knister will be analyzed, putting the emphasis on how are translated linguistic variations, proper names, humour and irony, as well as cultural differences and intertextuality. In relation with this last issue the double addressee will be mentioned and the problems that arise from the changes in the order of publication of some books of the series. Regarding humour and irony, the great variety of comical resources of the author will be stressed: puns, funny names, creative insults etc. Finally certain changes will be commented that could lead to a conflict concerning the loyalty towards the author's intention.Se analizan las traducciones al español de ocho volúmenes de la exitosa serie Hexe Lilli - Kika Superbruja del autor alemán Knister, poniendo el énfasis en la traducción de las variantes lingúísticas, los nombres propios, el humor y la ironía, además de las diferencias culturales y la intertextualidad.En relación con la intertextualidad se menciona la doble direccionalidad del texto y se comentan los problemas resultantes del cambio de orden de aparición de algunos libros de la serie. Con respecto al humor y la ironía se subraya la variedad de recursos del autor: juegos de palabras, nombres divertidos, insultos creativos, etc. Finalmente se constatan algunos cambios que podrían representar un problema de lealtad hacia el autor y su intención

    The dissertation dating back to 1934 on the Darmstadt Circle explores the phenomenon of the sentimental attitude in the 18th century. The author, Lilli Bechmann-Rahn, was the last Jewish woman to be awarded a doctoral degree at Erlangen University under National Socialism. According to national socialist racial policy she was stripped of her doctoral title few years later. This publication contains a reprint of the original thesis, a historical appreciation of Lilli Bechmann-Rahn, an acknowledgement of the scientific value of her dissertation, and biographical information.Die Dissertation aus dem Jahr 1934 über den Darmstädter Freundeskreis behandelt das Phänomen der Empfindsamkeit im 18. Jahrhundert. Die Autorin, Lilli Bechmann-Rahn, war die letzte Jüdin in der nationalsozialistischen Zeit, die an der Universität Erlangen promovierte. Im Zuge der nationalsozialistischen Rassenpolitik wurde ihr wenige Jahre darauf die Doktorwürde aberkannt. Die vorliegende Veröffentlichung enthält über den Nachdruck der Dissertation hinaus eine geschichtliche Würdigung Lilli Bechmann-Rahns, Ausführungen zur Bedeutung von Lilli Bechmann-Rahns Arbeit für die Wissenschaft und Bemerkungen zu ihrer Vita

    Complex precursory activity prior to the c.7600 yr BP Mazama (Crater Lake, USA) eruption

    Large magnitude explosive volcanic eruptions occur globally at a rate of 1–2 per 1000 years and can cause devastating global impacts. Despite the risk these eruptions pose, we have no reliable method to forecast whether lower magnitude eruptions are precursory to a larger event. Here we ask whether we can identify unique precursors to a large eruption using data from the runup to the ~7.6 ka eruption of Mount Mazama (Crater Lake, Oregon). We present new compositional and textural data that suggest the precursory sequence involved at least three distinct eruptions. In this way, the climactic Mazama eruptive sequence resembles the four-month build-up to the 1883 Krakatau eruption. We highlight the distinct properties of the lowermost unit that suggests at least one precursory eruption tapped a distinct magma reservoir supporting the idea that to evacuate large magma volumes you require the pre- or syn-eruptive amalgamation of multiple melt lenses

    The cold facts of long-term ECG monitoring

    No full text
    Two recently published trials have provided evidence in favor of longer ECG monitoring among patients with cryptogenic stroke (CS). In the CRYSTAL-AF trial, new atrial fibrillation (AF) was detected in 12.4% of patients with implantable monitor when compared with 2% among those receiving standard follow-up. A similar result was observed in the EMBRACE trial in which AF was detected in 16.1% of patients who received 30-day event recorder (3.2% in controls). These data are compelling in convincing us that long-term ECG technologies have superior sensitivity for the detection of AF in CS; however, clinical specificity for the definition of CS etiology of such findings cannot be established and can be lower than expected, leaving open questions about the etiologic weight of AF in CS. The causative role of AF in this subpopulation remains to be proven, and diagnostic routes cannot be solely unbalanced toward the research of AF

    TIIVISTELMÄ Oulun seudun ammattikorkeakoulu Hoitotyön koulutusohjelma, Sairaanhoitaja Tekijä: Lilli Paldanius Opinnäytetyön nimi: Astmaatikkojen kokemuksia suolahuonehoidosta Työn ohjaaja: Irmeli Pasanen Työn valmistumislukukausi ja -vuosi: Kevät 2013 Sivumäärä: 36 + 5 Opinnäytetyön tarkoituksena on kuvailla astmaatikkojen kokemuksia suolahuonehoidosta. Tavoitteena on tuoda tietoa suolahuonehoidosta astmaatikoille ja hoitoalan ammattilaisille. Opinnäytetyö on kvalitatiivinen eli laadullinen. Tutkimusaineisto kerättiin neljältä astmaatikolta puolistrukturoidun teemahaastattelun avulla. Aineisto analysoitiin induktiivisella eli aineistolähtöisellä sisällönanalyysilla. Opinnäytetyön teoriaosuudessa kerrotaan yleisesti astmasta ja sen hoitomuodoista sekä suolahuonehoidosta. Tulosten mukaan astmaatikot kokivat saavansa hyötyä suolahuonehoidosta. He kuvailivat, että hengittäminen tuntui suolahuonehoidon jälkeen keveämmältä, limantulo väheni, hoitoa seuraavan yön yskä helpottui ja univaikeuksiin koettiin saavan apua. Negatiiviseksi puoleksi koettiin tutkimuksen puute ja se, ettei suolahuonehoidosta voi saada Kelakorvausta. Asiasanat: astma, suolahuonehoitoABSTRACT Oulu University of Applied Sciences Degree Program in Nursing and Health Care, Nursing Author: Lilli Paldanius Title of thesis: Asthmatics experiences about salt chamber treatment Term and year when the thesis was submitted: Spring 2013 Number of pages: 36 + 5 The purpose of this thesis is to describe asthmatics experiences about salt chamber treatment. Objective is to give knowledge of salt chamber treatment to asthmatics and healthcare professionals. Thesis is qualitative. Research material is collected from four asthmatics with theme in-terview. Material is analyzed with inductive content interpretation. The theory part of the thesis tells about asthma and its treatment and salt chamber treatment. The results of this research show that asthmatics experience that they benefit from salt chamber treatment. They feel that breathing is easier after the treatment, mucus excre-tion decreases, the next night after the treatment coughing is easier and one asthmatic gets also help to his sleeping problems. Negative experience was that there is not enough research about this subject and salt chamber treatment is not social insurance institution recoverable. Key words: asthma, salt chamber treatmen

    Expression of luteal estrogen receptor, interleukin-1, and apoptosis-associated genes after PGF2α administration in rabbits at different stages of pseudopregnancy

    No full text
    The dynamic expression for estrogen receptor subtype-1 (ESR1), interleukin-1beta (IL1B), and apoptosis-associated genes, as well as nitric oxide synthase activity, were examined in corpora lutea (CL) of rabbits after prostaglandin F(2alpha) (PGF(2alpha)) administration on either day 4 or day 9 of pseudopregnancy. By reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction, the steady-state level of ESR1 transcript was lower (P < 0.01) and that of anti-apoptotic B-cell CLL/lymphoma 2 (BCL2) -like 1 (BCL2L1) was greater in day 4 (P < 0.01) than in day 9 CL. Western blot analysis revealed that BCL2-associated X protein (BAX) abundance was greater in day 4 (P < 0.01) than in day 9 CL, whereas BCL2L1 protein was undetectable at both luteal stages. After PGF(2alpha), ESR1 transcript decreased (P < 0.01) in day 9 CL, whereas IL1B mRNA showed a transitory increase (P < 0.01) at both stages. The pro-apoptotic tumor protein p53 (TP53) gene had diminished (P < 0.01) on day 4 and on day 9 after a transitory increase (P < 0.01), whereas the BAX/BCL2L1 expression ratio increased (P < 0.01) in day 9 CL 24 h after treatment. Following PGF(2alpha), TP53 protein increased (P < 0.01) at both luteal stages, and BAX decreased (P < 0.01) in day 4 CL but increased (P < 0.01) 24 h later in day 9 CL; BCL2L1 became detectable 6 h later in day 4 CL. Nitric oxide synthase activity temporarily increased (P < 0.01) following PGF(2alpha). These findings suggest that PGF(2alpha) regulates luteolysis by ESR1 mRNA down-regulation and modulation of pro- and anti-apoptotic pathways in CL that have acquired a luteolytic capacity
