Authors: Mishra Harshita , Chauhan Vaishali , Kumar Kapil , Teotia Deepak 
Published: January 2019

Liposome was derived from two Greek words “Lipos meaning fat and Soma meaning body”. Liposome were spherical shaped vesicles consist of phospholipids and cholesterol. Due to their size hydrophobic and lipophilic character they are very promising system for drug delivery. This novel drug delivery system aims to target the drug directly to the site of action. Liposomes are very biocompatible and stable and have unique property to entrap both hydrophilic drug and lipophilic drug (amphiphatic nature) to its compartment and lead to controlled release effect. They are of 0.05- 5.0 micrometer in diameter. Liposomes are used for the treatment of various diseases like tumors or cancer. This article provides an overview of Liposomal Drug Delivery System and various aspects related to liposome that can be studied.

Published: January 2019

Este artigo tem a pretensão de analisar a construção de alguns processos conceituais que levaram a justificativa da legitimação da dominação, subjugação e eliminação do corpo de seres humanos de pele escura, especificamente oriundas do continente africano e as respectivas terras para onde foram levados a força para serem escravizados. Ao receberem a alcunha de negro pelo colonizador europeu o africano começa a ser inserido em um estágio de construção de não-ser, não-humanidade e não-racionalidade, classificado dessa forma o seu corpo (a força de trabalho) foi utilizado como combustível para o desenvolvimento do capitalismo. Um corpo que poderia ser utilizado e descartado assim que se tornasse inútil para ser explorado. Mesmo após o sistema econômico escravagista ter sido extinto as estratégias de eliminação do corpo negro não cessaram. Agora, como ameaça biológica, os sistemas políticos contemporâneos, atualizando técnicas coloniais, executam em forma de necropolíticas (politicas da morte) para exterminação desse corpo negro.

A LENDA E A LEI: A ancestralidade afro-brasileira como fonte epistemológica e como conceito ético-jurídico normativo
Authors: De São Bernardo Augusto Sérgio dos Santos 
Published: January 2019

Nossas motivações e leituras de mundo sustentam-se no pressuposto de que as moralidades geram eticidades e as eticidades geram juridicidades. Tal correspondência une o destino a um modo ancestre de decidir sobre as situações do presente. Pensar ou exercitar uma epistemologia a partir da ancestralidade significa adotar uma postura ética frente a uma camada questionável de pensamentos e saberes identificáveis como africanos e diaspóricos. Isso implica numa mudança na carga teórico-epistemológica em que são construídos estes conceitos. A ancestralidade pode ser lida como uma categoria de alteridade. Mais que isso, uma categoria de trans-alteridade, posto que se referência no local de relação, ou seja, do encontro da diferença. Uma ancestralidade como referência e fundamento de uma nova utopia em nome de uma ética da sobrevivência e do equilíbrio com a natureza. Esta é uma das dimensões da experiência afrodiaspórica no Brasil. Uma experiência que deve ser vista também no campo da justiça política. Esta ancestralidade pode ser lida também numa perspectiva normativa não religiosa. O instituto da morte aparece como fator decisivo para a objetivação dos conceitos definidores do ancestral. Assim como, o estado de união vital dos elementos naturais e sociais constitutivos do homem caracteriza sua manifestação no mundo terrestre. A dissolução dessa união estabelece um novo estado existencial. A morte, portanto, permite a última transfiguração do homem. Neste caso, a ancestralidade influencia um universo mais amplo da existência e das forças físicas e metafísicas possuindo um poder normativo maior. O controle do mundo visível e invisível confere à ancestralidade um status de fenômeno jurídico. Os mandamentos ancestrais referenciam-se como fontes axiológicas sobre um conceito de justiça construído coletivamente. Tratar os princípios ancestrais como parte dos estudos da hermenêutica jurídica nos leva ao diálogo dos métodos e procedimentos para alcançar esta possibilidade. A valorização dos nossos próprios mitos e caráter identitário é uma sugestão poderosa para retomarmos o fio da história e das interpretações possíveis de liberdade e justiça para a realidade jurídica brasileira.

The hyper-IgE syndrome with dominant-negative mutations in signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) gene is a combined primary immunodeficiency characterized by severe bacterial infections (skin and lungs with bullae formation), characteristic phenotype, serum IgE elevation, eosinophilia, as well as connective tissue, and bone anomalies. Patients also have high risk of cancer. STAT3 is a transcription factor important for the JAK/STAT signaling pathway, which plays the key role in the synthesis of cytokines, hormones, and bioactive agents. Hyper-IgE syndrome therapy includes antimicrobial prophylaxis, immunoglobulin replacement, and use of bisphosphonates. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an alternative way for the disease treatment. Here we describe a patient with severe autosomal dominant hyper-IgE-syndrome with thte loss-of-function mutation in the STAT3 gene. Patient's parents agreed to use personal dats and photos in research and publications.

The Potential Role of the Cervical Spine in Sports-Related Concussion: Clinical Perspectives and Considerations for Risk Reduction
Authors: Streifer Michael , Brown Allison M. , Porfido Tara , Anderson Ellen Zambo , Buckman Jennifer F. , Esopenko Carrie 
Published: January 2019

Synopsis Sports-related concussion (SRC) occurs due to biomechanical forces to the head or neck that can result in pathophysiological changes in the brain. The musculature of the cervical spine has been identified as one potential factor in reducing SRC risk as well as for underlying sex differences in SRC rates. Recent research has demonstrated that linear and rotational head acceleration, as well as the magnitude of force upon impact, is influenced by cervical spine biomechanics. Increased neck strength and girth are associated with reduced linear and rotational head acceleration during impact. Past work has also shown that overall neck strength and girth are reduced in athletes with SRC. Additionally, differences in cervical spine biomechanics are hypothesized as a critical factor underlying sex differences in SRC rates. Specifically, compared to males, females tend to have less neck strength and girth, which are associated with increased linear and rotational head acceleration. Although our ability to detect SRC has greatly improved, our ability to prevent SRC from occurring and decrease the severity of clinical outcomes postinjury is limited. However, we suggest, along with others, that cervical spine biomechanics may be a modifiable factor in reducing SRC risk. In this commentary, we review the role of the cervical spine in reducing SRC risk, and how this risk differs by sex. We discuss clinical considerations for the examination of the cervical spine and the potential clinical relevance for SRC prevention. Additionally, we provide suggestions for future research examining cervical spine properties as modifiable factors in reducing SRC risk. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2019;49(3):202–208.

Global Distribution of Marginal Accessory Tubercles of the Maxillary Premolars
Authors: Adams Donovan , Swenson Victoria M , Scott G. Richard 
Published: January 2019

The present study assesses the global distribution of marginal accessory tubercles of the maxillary premolars. This trait, despite constituting one of the variables standardized by Turner and colleagues (1991), has received little attention in morphological studies. Frequencies were calculated from data sheets collected by Christy G. Turner II for mesial, distal, and mesial + distal grades. Different geographic patterns were identified for both types of expression on the upper premolars. The patterned geographic distribution of these traits indicates their utility in biodistance investigations. In addition, the distinction between mesial and distal accessory tubercles specified by Scott and Irish (2017) is recommended, as these two traits exhibit different geographic patterns.

Artykuł jest poświęcony kwestii istotnej dla zrozumienia kształtowania pamięci zbiorowych w XX w., a mianowicie mechanizmom tworzącym obszary „zbiorowego zapomnienia” oraz działaniom przywracania tego, co z pamięci zostało usunięte, przemilczane, pominięte lub wyparte. Przywołane w erudycyjnym szkicu badania i teksty wychodzą daleko poza granice pamięci europejskich, dając tym samym ogląd zjawisk pamięci i milczenia w ich globalnym wymiarze. Tym samym Luisa Passerini zachęca do porzucenia aroganckiego przekonania o naszej unikatowości i kulturowej wyższości.
