- Description:
- The consumption of horse meat has been epidemiologically linked to clinical toxoplasmosis in humans and neosporosis that may cause clinical illness in horses. Here we determined seroprevalence of antibodies against Toxoplasma gondii Nicolle et Manceaux, 1908 and species of Neospora Dubey, Carpenter, Speer, Topper et Uggla, 1988 in horses from Italy. Blood samples were collected from 643 apparently healthy horses from 60 farms of 51 municipalities in southern Italy. The presence of antibodies against T. gondii and Neospora spp. were detected by indirect fluorescence antibody test (IFAT); a titre ≥ 50 was considered positive. The same sera were also tested for antibodies against Neospora spp. by a competitive-inhibition enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (cELISA); samples with ≥ 30% inhibition were considered positive. Antibodies against T. gondii and Neospora spp. were detected in 19 (3.0%) and 15 (2.3%) horses by IFAT, respectively, without statistical difference between gender, age and breeds (p-value ≥ 0.05). Antibodies against species of Neospora were detected in 70 (10.9%) horses by cELISA with statistical difference in gender (6.0-18.5%, p-value ≥ 0.05) and breeds (0-19.4%, p-value ≥ 0.05). Although T. gondii infection rates were low, the risk of human infection should not be dismissed, particularly in Italy where consumption of raw or undercooked horse meat has a long tradition., Eva Bártová, Tereza Machačová, Kamil Sedlák, Marie Budíková, Ugo Mariani, Vincenzo Veneziano., and Obsahuje bibliografii

- Description:
- Helminths often occupy defined niches in the gut of their definitive hosts. In the dioecious acanthocephalans, adult males and females usually have similar gut distributions, but sexual site segregation has been reported in at least some species. We studied the intestinal distribution of the acanthocephalan Echinorhynchus borealis von Linstow, 1901 (syn. of E. cinctulus Porta, 1905) in its definitive host, burbot (Lota lota Linnaeus). Over 80% of female worms were found in the pyloric caeca, whereas the majority of males were in the anterior two-thirds of the intestine. This difference was relatively consistent between individual fish hosts. Worms from different parts of the gut did not differ in length, so site segregation was not obviously related to worm growth or age. We found proportionally more males in the caeca when a larger fraction of the females were found there, suggesting mating opportunities influence gut distribution. However, this result relied on a single parasite infrapopulation and is thus tentative. We discuss how mating strategies and/or sexual differences in life history might explain why males and females occupy different parts of the burbot gut., Arto Tuomainen, E.

478. Slovenský archív sociálnych dát: Možnosti podpory výskumu a slovensko - českej spolupráce v sociologických výskumoch
- Creator:

- Format:

- Type:
- model:article and TEXT
- Subject:
- archivace dat and sociologický výzkum
- Language:
- Czech
- Description:
- Text sa v úvode venuje histórii reprezentatívnych výskumov na Slovensku a v Československu od roku 1948 a na tomto príklade zdôrazňuje dôležitosť archivácie. Neexistencia dátového archívu mala za následok stratu údajov z mnohých výskumov realizovaných pred rokom 1989. Štúdium predstavuje pokusy o založenie dátového archívu na Slovensku a bližšie predstavuje Slovenský archív sociálnych dát (SASD), ktorý je v súčasnosti prevádzkovaný Katedrou sociológie FF UK a Sociologickým ústavom SAV. Relatívne neskorá inštitucionalizácia archívu na Slovensku ponúkla možnosť, archivovať dáta priamo v aktuálnom štandarde DDI. Cieľ SASD - zvyšovať metodologické štandardy výskumov realizovaných na Slovensku, demonštruje text na príkladoch nejednotnosti slovenských prekladov otázok a variantov odpovedí z medzinárodných výskumov, ako aj na príklade nejednotnosti použitých škál. Na záver štúdia predstavuje možnú spoluprácu archívov sociálnych dát v ČR a SR. Jej náplňou by mohla byť archivácia a kompletizácia informácií o výskumoch z obdobia spoločného štátu, prípadne aj tvorba rozdelených dátových súborov reprezentatívnych pre Čechy a Slovensko.

- Description:
- This article deals with the topic of mixed mode data collection in quantitative social research. The first part of the article introduces mixed mode data collection in terms of its development, characteristics and terminology. Thereafter, there is a discussion of mixed mode data research design and its usage. In the second part of this paper there is a discussion of important criteria in the effective used of a mixed mode data research design. Here particular attention is devoted to mode effects. The main insights from this overview of mixed mode data research are summarised in a schematic format. The concluding section provides a brief summary of a number of statistical methods for analysing mixed mode data such as Multitrait multimethod (MTMM) approach to studying construct validity. There are also some remarks regarding future developments in mixed mode data collection and analysis in the social sciences.
