Consent of the injured party to harm
No full textNačelo volenti non fit injuria poznamo že iz časa rimskega prava, v slovenskem pravnem redu pa je kodificirano v 140. členu OZ oziroma v institutu privolitve oškodovanca v škodo. Oškodovančeva privolitev izključuje protipravnost ravnanja in povzročene škode, posledično pa tudi odškodninsko odgovornost povzročitelja škode. Kljub temu da gre za institut, ki ima razmeroma dolgo pravno zgodovino, v slovenskem pravnem prostoru še ni zadostno raziskan. Magistrsko delo se osredotoča na prikaz geneze izvora načela volenti non fit injuria oziroma instituta privolitve oškodovanca v škodo in na njegovo umestitev v slovenski pravni sistem. Avtor analizira pravno naravo instituta privolitev oškodovanca v škodo in na tej podlagi prikaže, na kakšen način privolitev oškodovanca izključi protipravnost ravnanja in povzročene škode. Nadalje avtor analizira predpostavke, ki morajo biti izpolnjene, da privolitvi oškodovanca pripišemo pravno veljavnost in predstavi relevantna stališča obstoječe slovenske pravne teorije. Predstavljeni so tudi razlikovalni kriteriji, ki institut privolitve oškodovanca v škodo ločujejo od instituta ravnanja na lastno odgovornost, končno pa avtor poskuša začrtati tudi vsebinske meje pravno priznane privolitve oškodovanca v škodo.The principle of volenti non fit injuria has been known since the time of Roman law, and in the Slovenian legal system, it is codified in Article 140 of the Obligations Code, which deals with the institute of the injured party\u27s consent to harm. The injured party\u27s consent excludes the illegality of the act and the resulting damage, and consequently, the liability for damages of the perpetrator. Although this principle has a relatively long legal history, it has not been sufficiently researched in the Slovenian legal space.
This master\u27s thesis focuses on presenting the genesis of the principle of volenti non fit injuria or the institute of the injured party\u27s consent to harm and its placement with-in the Slovenian legal system. The author analyses the legal nature of the institute of the injured party\u27s consent to harm and on this basis, demonstrates how the injured party\u27s consent excludes the illegality of the act and the resulting damage. Further-more, the author analyses the prerequisites that must be met for the injured party\u27s consent to be legally valid and presents relevant viewpoints of existing Slovenian le-gal theory. The distinguishing criteria that separate the institute of the injured party\u27s consent to harm from the institute of acting at one\u27s own risk are also presented. Finally, the author attempts to delineate the substantive boundaries of legally recognized consent to harm

Literatura – kultura – lektura. Dzisiejsze spojrzenie na teorie i praktyki badań literackich i kulturowych
No full textMonografia jest zbiorem wyselekcjonowanych, poddanych recenzji naukowej tekstów; razem tworzą one spójne tematycznie opracowania skupiające się na specyficznej relacji między teorią i praktyką badań literackich i kulturowych, a więc między metodą a tekstem kultury, który humanista bierze na warsztat. Tom podzielony jest na trzy części. Pierwsza z nich, zatytułowana "Teoria w praktyce", zawiera teksty, które krytycznej rewizji poddają teorie badań literackich, próbując aplikować je do konkretnych tekstów kultury lub ich grup, sprawdzając w ten sposób ich użyteczność badawczą w zastanym dziś stadium rozwoju nauk humanistycznych. Część druga, "W stronę lektury", koncentruje się na osobie czytelnika, procesie lektury i ich roli w praktyce interpretacyjnej, na pierwszy plan wysuwając kategorię odbioru i różne jej rozumienia, a także rozważając związki i pozycje interpretatora, badacza i czytelnika. Z kolei część trzecia, nosząca tytuł "Poszukiwania i propozycje", stanowi zbiór artykułów poszukujących nowego języka, mogącego posłużyć do omawiania tych tekstów, wobec których dotychczas wytworzone, "mocne" teorie okazują się bezsilne lub niewystarczające – są to więc próby łączenia i rozbudowywania teorii i metodologii lub poszukiwania języka opisu tych tekstów kultury, które przez tradycyjne metodologie badań literackich nie były uwzględniane.Marta Błaszkowsk
NADPH oxidase (NOX) in the heart : the interplay of NOX-derived ROS in β1-integrin-induced survival signalling
No full textModerate levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) act as mediators in cellular signalling processes. An important source of cardiac ROS is the highly expressed NADPH oxidase (NOX) family isoform NOX2. However, little is known about whether NOX-derived ROS are protective in the heart.
In this study we show that CD29 (β1-integrin), a cell adhesion receptor highly expressed on cardiac muscle cells, induces NOX-dependent ROS. CD29 is known to be mandatory in cell growth and survival, and non-functional CD29 causes severe heart disease. We demonstrate that NOX2-derived ROS are essential for CD29-induced survival signalling, including the PI3K/PKB and MEK/ERK pathways. Furthermore, CD29-induced NOX-derived ROS are indispensible in the inhibition of the pro-apoptotic kinase GSK-3β, which we uncovered as a downstream target of both the ERK and PKB survival pathways in cardiac muscle cells. These findings clearly add to the growing body of evidence suggesting that moderate ROS levels are beneficial to the cell and highlight the crucial role of NOX2-derived ROS for cell survival in the heart

Mythical origins of fantasy : (post-)structural oppositions of depicted world of J. R. R. Tolkien
No full textAutor, w oparciu o najnowszą literaturę przedmiotu dotyczącą przemian rozumienia sacrum we współczesnym świecie, zwraca uwagę na przesunięcia pola semantycznego tego terminu, które dokonują się w czasie, oraz na jego relację ze sferą profanum na przykładzie fundacyjnej powieści gatunku fantasy - Władcy Pierścieni. Strukturalna analiza uniwersum stworzonego przez Tolkiena ukazuje problemy w klasyfikacji składników najważniejszych dzieł literackich Profesora (przestrzeni, fabuły i postaci) do którejś z powyższych sfer, w związku z czym autor zaznacza ich aksjologiczną zależność od funkcji czasu oraz proponuje zastosowanie istniejącej już w religioznawstwie kategorii sacrofanum do badań kulturowych i literackich. Jej adekwatność miałaby być podyktowana dążeniem aktualnych nurtów humanistyki do czasowego i doświadczeniowego postrzegania procesów kultury, co wywołuje potrzebę ciągłego poszukiwania możliwie adekwatnego języka jej opisu.Author, by using the latest literature on the subject of concerning the transformation of understanding sacrum in the modern world, draws attention to the shift of the semantic field of the term, which make up over time and its relationship with the sphere of profanum on the example of fantasy novel founding work - The Lord of the Rings. Structural analysis of the universe created by Tolkien reveals problems in the classification of the most important Professor’s literary works components (space, plot and characters) to both of these areas, therefore, the author points out their axiological dependence on function of time and proposes the use of sacrofanum - an existing category in religious studies to cultural and literary studies. Its appropriateness would be dictated by the desire of current trends in the humanities to temporary and experiential perception of cultural processes, resulting in the need for continuous search for possibly adequate language describe to it
Aggregation pheromone compounds of the black larder beetle Dermestes haemorrhoidalis Kuster (Coleoptera: Dermestidae)
No full textGas chromatography with simultaneous flame ionisation and electroantennographic detection (GCEAD) and gas chromatography with mass spectrometry analysis (GCMS) of abdominal extracts of adult male Dermestes haemorrhoidalis Kuster (Coleoptera: Dermestidae) revealed the presence of electrophysiologically and behaviourally active compounds to its conspecific males and females. Isopropyl dodecanoate (3), isopropyl (Z)-9-tetradecenoate (5), isopropyl tetradecanoate (6), isopropyl (Z)-9-hexadecenoate (7) and isopropyl hexadecanoate (8) were detected in male abdominal extracts only. Analysis of collected male headspace volatiles revealed the presence of six EAD-active compounds (3), (5), (6) and isopropyl tridecanoate (4) plus two unidentified compounds (1) and (9). Synthetic compounds (3), (4), (5), (6) and (7) showed EAD activity with antennae of both sexes in contrast to synthetic (8) which showed EAD activity with female antennae only. Male and female antennae of D. haemorrhoidalis reacted with high receptor potentials to isopropyl (Z)-9-dodecenoate (2), although this compound itself was detected in neither male nor female abdominal extracts or headspace volatiles. Petri dish bioassays indicated that male abdominal extracts and compounds (2), (3), (5) and (6) aroused and attracted conspecific male and female beetles significantly (
Patient with Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser syndrome (MRKH) who Underwent Laparoscopic Davydov-Moore vaginoplasty
No full textThe Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser syndrome (MRKH) constitutes the second most common cause of primary amenorrhea, after gonadal dysgenesis. It is a congenital absence of the vagina with variable uterine development, which is a result of Mullerian duct agenesis or hypoplasia. The incidence for vaginal agenesis is 1 in 5000 (range 1 per 4000 to 10,000 females). We describe two cases of women diagnosed with MRKH syndrome who underwent laparoscopic Davydov-Moore vaginoplasty. Our video demonstrates the succesful operation which is composed of dissection of the rectovesical space, abdominal mobilization of the peritoneum to create the vaginal fornices, and attachment of the peritoneum to the introitus. Treatment of this syndrome should be multidisciplinary and individualized to the patient. It includes a combination of psychosocial support and correction of the anatomic abnormality
47 patients in 14 families with the rare genodermatosis keratosis punctata palmoplantaris Buschke-Fischer-Brauer
No full textWe summarize the clinical data of 47 patients with the rare genodermatosis keratosis punctata palmoplantaris Buschke-Fischer-Brauer. The pedigrees of 14 German families were studied. In three families there was only one member affected, two or more affected members were found in the other families. These family pedigrees were consistent with autosomal dominant inheritance. Variable expression of, the disease was noted in members within one family. Over pressure points punctate keratoses coalesced into hyperkeratotic plaques. There was palmoplantar hyperhidrosis in 3 families associated with keratosis. Continuous systemic retinoid treatment can clear symptoms. Future genetic classification on a molecular basis may reveal the existance of more than one entity of this clinically heterogeneous genodermatosis
