Znalosti žáků 2. stupně vybrané ZŠ o menstruačním cyklu / Second grade students' menstruation cycle awarenessNováková, Michaela January 2019 (has links)
The thesis focuses on menstrual cycle literacy of students at a selected primary school. The main focus of the thesis is primarily on the basic information on menstruation and how to clarify the topic to the chosen respondents. The aim of the paper is to determine the students' awareness regarding this topic, specify discrepancies and, if necessary, refute false information. The paper is divided into two parts, theoretical and practical. The theoretical part covers terms menstruation, the historical context of the menstrual cycle, the anatomy of internal and external reproductive organs and characteristics of menstrual cycle disorders. The practical part contains an analysis of data gained by means of two survey and a plan of a lecture on menstruation. The gained data are summarized and compared in the conclusion. The analysis of the data obtained by means of two questionnaires shows a growing tendency in the number of correct answers. After the second submission, the rate of correct answrs grew from 50,5 % up to 77,6 %. The analysis proved that the awareness of this topic is almost similar throughout the classes involved. There were no significant differences among the students from the 6th and the 9th grade. There were 13 correct answers on average in the 6th grade. This number increasead up to 20...

Envolvimento dos neurônios Kiss1 na via neural através da qual o sistema circadiano regula o ciclo ovulatório. / Involvement of Kiss1 neurons in the neural pathway through which the circadian system regulates ovulatory cycle.Paradela, Regina Silva 19 May 2015 (has links)
Os neurônios Kiss1 do núcleo anteroventral periventricular (AVPV/PeN) e núcleo arqueado (Arc) possuem o receptor de estrógeno alfa (ERα) e são essenciais no controle do ciclo ovulatório. Os neurônios Kiss1 do AVPV/PeN apresentam conexões com o núcleo supraquiasmático, através do qual a informação fótica poderia regular a ovulação. A vasopressina (VP) e o peptídeo intestinal vasoativo (VIP) são os principais peptídeos produzidos pelo NSQ, e estudos sugerem a participação deles na secreção de LH. Com isso, investigamos se fibras vasopressinérgicas estão em aposição com neurônios Kiss1 do AVPV/PeN e Arc; se os receptores de VP e VIP são expressos nestes núcleos; e se variações nos níveis circulantes de estradiol (E2) poderiam afetar a expressão destes receptores. Para isso, utilizamos camundongos divididos em: fêmeas em diestro; fêmeas que tiveram os ovários removidos (OVX); e fêmeas OVX que receberam reposição de E2 (OVX+E2). Observamos que neurônios Kiss1 do AVPV/PeN colocalizam com fibras vasopressinérgicas; e os níveis circulantes de estrógeno não afetou este contato e sim o número de neurônios Kiss1. No AVPV/PeN, as OVX tiveram aumento da expressão dos receptores VPAC1 e VPAC2; no Arc, a reposição com E2 induziu um aumento da expressão do Avpr1a. / The Kiss1 neurons in the periventricular anteroventral nucleus (AVPV/PeN) and arcuate nucleus (Arc) have the estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) and are essential in controlling the ovulatory cycle. The Kiss1 neurons of the AVPV/PeN have connections to the suprachiasmatic nucleus, through which the photic information could regulate ovulation. Vasopressin (VP) and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) are the main peptides produced by the SCN, and studies suggest their participation in LH secretion. Thus, we investigated whether vasopressinergics fibers are in apposition with Kiss1 neurons in the AVPV/PeN and Arc; whether VP and VIP receptors are expressed in these nuclei; and if changes in circulating levels of estradiol (E2) could affect the expression of these receptors. We used mice divided into: females in estrus; females who had their ovaries removed (OVX); and OVX that receiving E2 replacement (OVX + E2). We observed that Kiss1 neurons of the AVPV/PeN in colocalization with vasopressinergics fibers; and circulating levels of estrogen did not affect this contact but the number of neurons Kiss1. In AVPV/PeN, the OVX had increased expression of VPAC1 and VPAC2 receptors; in the Arc, replacement with E2 induced an increased expression of Avpr1a.

Intrasexual competition among women : the influence of same-sex rivals on women's purchasing and risk-taking behavior across the ovulatory cycleDurante, Kristina Marie 16 October 2009 (has links)
The following will explore the operation of evolved mechanisms connected with cycling fertility. I first address strategic shifts in women’s behavior near ovulation and hypothesize that certain behavioral shifts at high fertility reflect an increase in women’s intrasexual competition tactics when conception is most probable. A simulated, online shopping program was designed to track women’s spending patterns (at varying budgets) on clothing, undergarments, shoes, jewelry, and other fashion accessories – items that likely enhance a woman’s ability to attract a high quality mate and effectively compete with same-sex rivals. Additionally, a laboratory task was created to assess women’s likelihood of incurring a risk to appear more attractive and have access to more resources than same-sex peers. Studies 1-3 will explore the effect of fertility on women’s consumer behavior and the influence of same-sex peers on fertility-induced motivation to appear more attractive. Study 4 will further examine fertility-induced shifts in women’s intrasexual competitiveness by measuring context-specific risks women take to gain a positional advantage over same-sex peers. The current studies present new data that provide novel insights into human adaptations to cycling fertility and highlight important decision-making processes that guide women’s social competition within a variety of domains. / text
