No full textNamen diplomskega dela je, da preučimo vire in zapišemo informacije o avtorici predstavimo in analiziramo izbrane slikanice Barbare Hanuš ter te slikanice predstavimo otrokom v vrtcu ter nato predstavimo rezultate dejavnosti v vrtcu oz. predstavimo odziv otrok. V ta namen sem si zastavila predpostavke oz. hipoteze, ki sem jih glede na predstavitev v vrtcu in odziv otrok potrdila ali ovrgla.
Avtorice Barbare Hanuš prej nisem poznala, zato sem se na različne načine in metode lotila raziskovanja o njej in njenih delih ter nato izbrala slikanice, primerne za starostno skupino 2–4 let. V svojem diplomskem delu sem torej analizirala in predstavila sedem izbranih slikanic Barbare Hanuš, in sicer: Mali morski ježek in mala morska deklica (1998), Kje živijo živali? (2013), Različna sva, rada se imava (2013), Beti in Cej nakupujeta (2014) ter zbirko treh knjig O Jakobu in muci Mici (Rojstni dan (2009), Novoletna smrečica (2010) in Maškare (2011)).
V teoretičnem delu sem predstavila avtorico Barbaro Hanuš in ilustratorje, ki so izbrane slikanice ilustrirali (Bojano Dimitrovski, Ano Zavadlav, Petra Škerla in Mojco Cerjak) ter preučila in zapisala nekaj dosedanjih virov in teoretičnih spoznanj o slikanici.
Slikanica je prva knjiga, s katero se otrok srečuje, in je (Haramija, Batič, 2013, str. 23): »Slikanice so posebna oblika knjige, ki združuje besedilo in ilustracijo v enovito celotoslikanica ima torej tri pomembne sestavine: besedilo, ilustracije in vsebinsko-oblikovni odnos med besedilom in ilustracijo.«
Praktični del sem izvajala v enem od posavskih vrtcev, in sicer v dveh skupinah: v kombiniranem oddelku otrok, kjer je starost 2–4 let, ter v homogenem oddelku, kjer je starost 3–4 let. Analizo slikanic pa sem delno naredila po vzorcu Dragice Haramija in Janje Batič iz knjige Poetika slikanice (2013).The purpose of the diploma thesis has been to study the sources and write information about the author, present and analyse the chosen picture books of Barbara Hanuš and present these picture books to the children in the kindergarten and then the results of the activity in the kindergarten and the reactions of the kindergarten children. I have stated assumptions or hypothesis, which have been confirmed or declined.
I had not known the author Barbara Hanuš beforetherefore, I started the research with different methods and ways about her and her work. I chose the picture books, appropriate for the age group of two to four year-olds. In the diploma thesis, I analysed and presented seven chosen picture books of Barbara Hanuš: A little sea urchin and a little mermaid (1998), Where do animals live? (2013), We are different, we like each other (2013), Beti and Cej are shopping (2014) and a collection of three books About Jakob and a cat Mici (A birthday (2009), A Christmas tree (2010) and Carnival figures (2011)).
In the theoretical part, I presented the author Barbara Hanuš and illustrators who illustrated the chosen picture books (Bojana Dimitrovski, Ana Zavadlav, Peter Škerla, and Mojca Cerjak) and studied and wrote some of the sources and theoretical findings about a picture book (Haramija, Batič, 2013, p. 23): »Picture books are a special form of a book, which connects a text with illustration in a uniontherefore, a picture book has three important components: a text, illustrations, and content-form relationship between the text and illustration.«
The practical part has been done in one of the Posavje region kindergartens in two groups: in a combined group with children, aged two to four, and in a homogeneous group of children, aged three to four. The analysis was partially done by the sample of Dragica Haramija and Janja Batič from the book Poetics of a picture book (2013)
Effects of isolated post-challenge hyperglycemia on mortality in American Indians: The strong heart study
No full textPURPOSE: To assess the effects of isolated post-challenge hyperglycemia (IPH) on risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), cancer, and all-cause mortality in American Indians using longitudinal data from the Strong Heart Study. METHODS: Of 4549 American Indian women and men aged 45 to 74 years participating in the Strong Heart Study, 4304 had fasting blood measurements or oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) data to ascertain diabetes status. At baseline and follow-up, a personal interview was conducted, and physical examinations and laboratory tests were performed. Fasting blood samples were drawn for measurement of glucose, fibrinogen, insulin, lipids, lipoproteins, creatinine, and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). A 75-g OGTT was performed. Five diabetes categories were defined: (i) known diabetes, (ii) newly diagnosed diabetes (fasting glucose ≥126 mg/dL and no history of diabetes or diabetes medication; ADA-new diabetes), (iii) IPH, (iv) impaired fasting glucose (≥110 - \u3c126 mg/dL; IFG), and (v) normal fasting glucose (\u3c110 mg/dL; NFG). Surveillance was initiated to determine CVD, cancer, and all-cause mortality over 9 years. RESULTS: IPH had a worse CVD risk factor profile than NFG, but IPH was associated with a better CVD risk factor profile than known diabetes or ADA-new diabetes. At follow-up, individuals with IFG had no increased risk for CVD or all-cause mortality, whereas those with ADA-new or known diabetes had significantly increased risk (RR = 1.70 and 1.40 for ADA-new diabetes, and RR = 2.87 and 2.19 for known diabetes, respectively). Those with IPH had nonsignificant elevations in risk for CVD (RR = 1.54) and all-cause (RR = 1.27) mortality. Cancer mortality was not increased in those with IFG, IPH, ADA-new diabetes, or known diabetes compared to those with NFG. CONCLUSIONS: Among American Indians 45 to 74 years of age, IPH is associated with nonsignificant elevations in total and CVD mortality. The magnitude of mortality risk associated with IPH is intermediate between diabetes and IFG. Because those with IPH are at high risk for diabetes, American Indians with IPH should be targeted for diabetes prevention. © 2003 Elsevier Science Inc. All rights reserved

Coronary artery calcification in black women and white women
No full textBackground Coronary calcification is a potent independent predictor of coronary risk. Sex-specific risk categories based on calcium scores have been established, but ethnic differences in coronary calcification have been little studied. This prospective cohort study compares coronary calcification, assessed by computed tomography, in postmenopausal black women and white women. Methods and Results Computed tomographic scans were performed on 128 black women and 733 white women without known coronary artery disease (mean age 63 +/- 8 years). Although coronary risk factors were more prevalent among black women (P < .0001), total calcium scores were similar to those in white women. By use of the Framingham algorithm, higher calcium scores were associated with higher 10-year risk of myocardial infarction or coronary death. In multiple regression analysis, age was independently associated with higher calcium scores in both ethnic groups (P = .002 for black women, P < .0001 for white women). Diabetes mellitus and not exercising at least 3 times per week were independently associated with higher calcium scores in white women but not black women. Educational level, body mass index, current hormone replacement therapy, hysterectomy, dietary fat consumption, family history of premature coronary disease, hypertension, self-reported high cholesterol, and current smoking were not independently associated with coronary calcium score in black women, white women, or the combined cohort; neither was ethnicity an independent predictor of coronary calcification. Conclusions Despite higher dietary fat consumption, higher body mass index, and greater prevalence of hypertension, diabetes, and smoking, black women had coronary calcium scores similar to those of white women. Ethnicity was not an independent predictor of coronary calcification
