La verosimilitud y el pragmatismo en los relatos de la prensa gráfica sobre la política

In my present doctoral research on emergency and fall of leaders of the Justicialista Party of Salta (Argentina), I observe accounts of the graphic press that describe events of the political dynamics taking into descriptions gossip, rumors and confidences obtained from interactions mediated by the trust and intimacy with leaders, civil servants and workers close to local leaders. Although those rumours and confidences cannot be verified, the credibility of the information, for writers and journalists, is also supported by trust. However, the analysis and interpretation of the information construct veracity from the verisimilitude . The proximity of the description with that dominant view that considers politics as an activity devoid of values, whose pragmatism contrasts with the politics of ideals, allows to achieve such verisimilitude. Thus, the most effective descriptions in the valuation of the political calcullation, strategy and interests of those who are involved - with evidences of political gestures in solidarity to that estimate - would be the closest to the ‘real’ facts. However, this adjustments of interests over values offers a direction when considering these accounts as sources, because it overshadows those moral orientations which, as other studies indicate, would be very spread among the leaders of peronismo.

The Cultural Otherness of Custance as a Foreign Woman in the <i>Man of Law's Tale</i>

Abstract Comparing Chaucer's representation of Custance in the Man of Law's Tale with Trevet's and Gower's, this article explores how Chaucer highlights the cultural otherness of Custance as a foreign woman in England. Drawing upon historical documents, it also examines how Custance as the cultural Other can be associated with real, historical foreign women in late-fourteenth-century England, and how aggression and xenophobia toward Custance reflect Chaucer's own fourteenth-century English society, where people also were xenophobic toward foreign women. Chaucer shows sympathy both with them and with Custance, and implicitly critiques the problematic attitude of his contemporaries toward foreign women in England.

RPM (REVOLUTIONS PER MURAL): LOWRIDER MURALS AND THE AMERICAN QUILT OF IDENTITIES

This senior thesis examines lowrider muralism, specifically what roles Pancho Villa and&#13;\nEmiliano Zapata play in understanding the American quilt of identities. This thesis seeks to&#13;\nanswer the following question: Using American cars as a canvas, what do lowrider murals&#13;\ndepicting iconography from the Mexican Revolution reveal about or contribute to our&#13;\nunderstanding of American culture and identity? In this thesis, I will argue that lowrider murals&#13;\ndepicting the figures of Zapata and Villa are contributing to the American quilt of identities by&#13;\nchallenging the restrictive mythology through the contribution of new icons that are emblematic&#13;\nof the iconoclastic effect lowriders have had on the American cultural firmament. I explore the&#13;\ncontradiction between fact and legend in historical figures by examining their history and their&#13;\nhistorical myth through three lowrider murals. Fact and legend combine to provide a concrete&#13;\nhistorical legacy to build on, and deep emotional investment in the way these figures modify our&#13;\nunderstanding of American-ness. Fact and legend also combine in new manifestations of the&#13;\nAmerican self-made man and how muralist art can catalyze social change. Together, Villa and&#13;\nZapata eradicate the American cultural hegemony into an American quilt of identities more&#13;\nrepresentative of the nation that it is today.

A Rare Case of Ischemic Enteritis Presenting as Obscure Overt Bleeding

Ischemic enteritis (IE) is defined as hypoperfusion of the mesenteric vessels to the small bowels and is a rare diagnosis due to rich collateral vasculature. IE typically presents with nausea, abdominal pain, vomiting and rarely presents with melena. Risk factors include hypertension, diabetes, ischemic heart disease and atherosclerosis. IE is difficult to diagnose as no set diagnostic criteria exists and endoscopiy is often not the first line of work up for patients who present with these symptoms. We report an atypical presentation of ischemic enteritis, which has rarely been documented endoscopically. A 78-year old male presented with chest pain and was found to have a myocardial infarction. His medical history included hypertension, pulmonary hypertension and right-sided heart failure. His hospital course was complicated by acute respiratory failure, secondary to cardiogenic shock, requiring intubation. Over 24 hours, he developed maroon colored stools with hemoglobin dropping from 7.6 g/dL to 6.6 g/dL, prompting endoscopic evaluation. Colonoscopy revealed blood clots in the terminal ileum, cecum and ascending colon with a patchy, erosive appearance concerning for ischemic colitis. An esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed stress gastropathy. Neither upper or lower endoscopy identified a source of bleeding. Small bowel capsule endoscopy showed ulcerations in the proximal small bowel. Single balloon enteroscopy revealed a large, circumferential ulceration in the jejunum, 40 centimeters in length, shallow, irregular and without heaped borders. Pathology of the biopsied ulcer revealed fragments of inflamed granulation tissue with no overt microorganisms, viral changes, granulomas or malignancy seen. The ulceration was likely a result of ischemic enteritis, given the macroscopic and microscopic findings and a clinical diagnosis of ischemic cardiomyopathy. Endoscopic therapy was not done, as the bleeding was noted to occur in a multi-focal distribution. Despite aggresive medical management, the patient failed numerous weaning trials, had a progressive decline in nutritional status and was transitioned to hospice care.Figure 1Figure 2Ischemic enteritis is a rare condition and the presentation as an obscure-overt GI bleed is of greater rarity given that nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain are the most common symptoms. Endoscopic findings include circumferential stenosis with thickening of the walls and histologic characteristics include inflammatory cell infiltration. A majority of patients with IE develop multi-organ failure, sepsis and ultimately succumb to death. Thus, when encountering a patient with risk factors for ischemia in the setting of obscure overt bleeding, IE should be highly considered. In this case, balloon enteroscopy was vital in diagnosis and also captured images infrequently reported in the medical literature.

Assessment of in vitro antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of Broussonetia × hanjiana M. Kim

The fruit and bark of Broussonetia × hanjiana M. Kim (Kkujidaknamu, Korean paper mulberry) have been used as a resource for medicine and paper in Korea and Korean traditional paper (Hanji), made from extract of the B. × hanjiana bark, has been used to package dry foods. The present study was carried out to evaluate the in vitro antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of B.× hanjiana extract. The antimicrobial activity of four fractions of ethanol extract of the plant collected in July was evaluated through disc diffusion and minimal inhibition concentration (MIC) method against three Gram-positive strains, two Gram-negative strains, and one yeast. The ether and ethyl acetate fraction of ethanol extract from B. × hanjiana bark exhibited the highest antimicrobial activity with the lowest MIC value against the tested Gram-positive bacteria. The MIC of the hexane and ether fraction against Gram-negative bacteria was not detected in any sample extracts and the MIC was not observed against Saccharomyces cerevisiae in any fractions. The antioxidant activity of ethanol and hot water extract of the plant was evaluated by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2′-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging assay. The ethanol extract showed relatively higher DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity than the hot water extract, regardless of the samples. The results of total phenolic and flavonoid contents were not consistent with the results of antioxidant activity and it shows antioxidant activity is not only affected by the polyphenol content but also can occur by some other phytochemicals. The antimicrobial and antioxidant activity was influenced by plant organ or extract solvent. These findings may confirm the potential of this plant as an antimicrobial and antioxidant agent.

Age changes in residual radicular cysts

Histological and radiographic study of 33 uninfected residual radicular cysts has shown that there is a slow increase in mineralised deposits within the cyst lumen with time. This becomes prominent histochemically in those cysts more than 8 years old and radiographically 6 years later. It would appear that mineralisation in these elderly cysts is due to dystrophic calcification of deucnerate cellular material within the cyst lumen. Inflammation in all cysts, apart from mild granulomatous reactions related to cholesterol within cyst walls, was minimal. Overall reduction of cyst size with increasing epithelial atrophy and loss of hyaline bodies and mucous cells, has been shown to occur with increasing cyst age. It is suggested that the majority of radicular cysts heal spontaneously following extraction of the associated tooth. Furthermore, lesions that persist as residual radicular cysts will also undergo slow resolution if inflammation is not a prominent feature.

Ineffective Erythropoiesis and Hemolysis

Abstract Ineffective erythropoiesis and hemolysis are mechanisms of anemia characterized by erythroid hyperproliferation with increased cell loss, either in the marrow (ineffective erythropoiesis) or in the circulation (hemolysis). One form of anemia characterized by ineffective erythropoiesis, sideroblastic anemia, has already been considered in Chapter 5. Other forms of anemia characterized by ineffective erythropoiesis are megaloblastic anemia, thalassemia, and the anemias due to myelodysplastic syndromes. Ineffective erythropoiesis is characterized by increased cell loss in the bone marrow (intramedullary hemolysis), leading to anemia. Ineffective erythropoiesis is the major pathophysiologic mechanism leading to anemia in several diverse hematologic conditions, including sideroblastic anemia, megaloblastic anemia, thalassemia, congenital dyserythropoietic anemia, and the myelodysplastic syndromes. These anemias are characterized by cellular metabolic defects leading to premature cell death in the bone marrow. In sideroblastic anemia, the metabolic defect is in heme biosynthesis, resulting in accumulation of iron in mitochondria and cell death (see section on sideroblastic anemia in Chapter 5).

Archiving Digital Objects as Maintenance: Reading a Rosetta Machine

Abstract: Archiving digital objects consists of maintenance and conservation: the job of arresting a cultural object in time, maintaining it as closely as possible in the state in which it was created. Hardware and software provide the context in which digital objects are created, and other hardware and software provide the context in which they must be maintained, but practitioners of digital preservation are only now beginning to move seriously into the area of deciding how to perform digital objects for users. In this paper I discuss a personal effort at stopping time for hardware and what it has taught me about approaching construction of preservable platforms that can replicate the context of creation for digital objects. I will also discuss what we lose when we decide to discard environment in favor of some generalized idea of content.

Human single-neuron responses at the threshold of conscious recognition

We studied the responses of single neurons in the human medial temporal lobe while subjects viewed familiar faces, animals, and landmarks. By progressively shortening the duration of stimulus presentation, coupled with backward masking, we show two striking properties of these neurons. ( i ) Their responses are not statistically different for the 33-ms, 66-ms, and 132-ms stimulus durations, and only for the 264-ms presentations there is a significantly higher firing. ( ii ) These responses follow conscious perception, as indicated by the subjects' recognition report. Remarkably, when recognized, a single snapshot as brief as 33 ms was sufficient to trigger strong single-unit responses far outlasting stimulus presentation. These results suggest that neurons in the medial temporal lobe can reflect conscious recognition by “all-or-none” responses.

Malaysian health policy in comparative perspective

The importance of health care in public policy can hardly be exaggerated: the world spends US$3 trillion on it, amounting to more than one-tenth of world gross domestic product (GDP). No less significantly, voters everywhere rate it as one of the most important electoral issues, a reality no elected government can ignore. But how governments go about addressing their society's health care needs varies greatly across nations, as do outcomes. While the relationship between health care and health outcomes is not straightforward, health policy does make a difference to the quality and quantity of health care available to the population and what they pay for it.

Morphological analysis of basal nuclei in oral leukoplakia for prognostic indicators

BACKGROUND: Oral leukoplakia (OL) is a potentially precancerous lesion. The aim of this study was to test its potential, in order to distinguish between cases of OL that showed malignant transformation from non-malignant OL cases. Morphological analysis of nuclei in biopsy specimens was also performed. We had 22 OL cases that could be followed-up over a long-term.METHODS: The patients were divided in two-groups, the malignant transformation group (MT group, N.=8) and non-malignant transformed group (non-MT group, N.=14). The area of the nucleus and the length of the nuclear perimeter of OL cells around the basal layer were investigated using computer-assisted image analysis in incisional biopsy specimens. The mean nuclear area (NA), mean nuclear perimeter, standard deviation (SD) of the NA and the coefficient of variation of the nuclear area (NACV) were also calculated.RESULTS: There was significant difference in the NA between the MT group and non-MT group (73.6 µm2 in MT group and 42.1 µm2 in non-MT group; P<0.0001). There was a significant difference in the mean nuclear perimeter between the MT group and non-MT group (33.1 µm in MT group and 25.9 µm in non-MT group; P=0.0001). There was a significant difference of the in NACV between the MT group and non-MT group (36.3% in MT group and 29.5% in non-MT group; P=0.0215).CONCLUSIONS: The NA, the nuclear perimeter and NACV of basal OL cells might indicate the likelihood of malignant transformation.

Kinesio Taping Versus Oromotor Training on Drooling in Children with Spastic Cerebral Palsy: Comparative Study

Background: Children with cerebral palsy (CP) frequently have sustained drooling, which leads to feeding difficulties and social affection.Oral motor (OM) exercises and kinesio taping (KT) are treatment options described for management of drooling.Objective: The aim of the current work was to compare between the effectiveness of KT versus OM training for improving drooling in children with spastic CP.Patients and Methods: This study included 24 children of both gender with spastic CP, aged 4 to 8 years.They were selected according to specific eligibility criteria and were randomly allocated into Kinesio taping (KT) group (n=12) and oromotor (OM) group (n=12).The KT group received Kinesio taping application on orbicularis oris muscle, while the OM group received oral motor exercise program.Both groups received intervention 3 times/week for successive 2 months.Assessment of drooling severity and frequency by using the 5-minute drooling quotient (DQ) and drooling severity and frequency scale (DSFS).Data were collected at the baseline and the end of intervention.Data were statistically analyzed and compared.Results: Comparison of pre-and post-treatment mean values of all measured variables showed significant improvement for children of both KT and OM groups.The post treatment results showed that OM training is more effective than KT in decreasing drooling severity and frequency.Conclusion: Although both OM exercises and KT application are effective in improving drooling in children with spastic CP; OM training is proven to be more effective than KT when used as a standalone treatment.

423. Increased Incidence of Hepatocellular Change and Neoplastic Disease in AAV-WPRE Treated Pahenu2 Mice

Phenylketonuria (PKU) is among the most common human birth defects occurring in approximately 1 in 16,000 births in the United States. The disease is caused by a single gene defect in the enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) which results in elevated serum phenylalanine (Phe) levels. Our laboratory is involved in the investigation of AAV applications for the treatment of this disease in a mouse model for PKU.
