Study of Pharmacological Activity of Glycyrrhiza glabra L.

In article the results of overview research about pharmacological activity of Glycyrrhiza glabra L. is given. Liquorice (licorice) root is derived from the inner part of the root and underground stem (rhizome) of Glycyrrhiza glabra (Fabaceae, the bean family). The peeled drug is of much higher quality than the root with the bark, and is produced in several south-eastern European countries, Turkey, China and Russia. It has a very characteristic taste and smell, and is used in confectionery. The sweet taste also makes the identification of the drug relatively easy and so adulteration is uncommon. The most important bioactive secondary metabolite is glycyrrhizic acid, a water-soluble pentacyclic triterpene saponin which gives the drug its characteristic sweet taste (it is about 50 times sweeter than sucrose). Liquorice also contains numerous flavonoids (chalcones and isoflavonoids), coumarins and polysaccharides, which contribute to the activity.

9. Chewing Gum and Graffiti: Aestheticized City Rhetoric in Post- 2008 Athens

The post-2008 austerity measures imposed on Greece made public space in the city of Athens the prime target of economic development and city marketing.These processes are based on aesthetic strategies of 'cleaning up' and imposing a certain visual order while disposing signs of deprivation and exclusion in the streets.Referencing the works of Chantal Mouffe and Jacques Rancière and illustrating a series of cases, we demonstrate how this exclusionary 'police order' of neoliberal consensus confirms and reinforces the borders between the visible and invisible, acceptable and unacceptable.This is, however, contested by a more democratic aesthetics of redistribution, based on difference, which emerges as soon as the implemented order meets the world of complexity, boundaries and resistance.

Superior Capsular Reconstruction for Irreparable Rotator Cuff Tears

One of the greatest challenges faced by shoulder surgeons remains the chronic massive irreparable rotator cuff tear. Several surgical options have been introduced but each has unique shortcomings particularly in physiologically young patients. As a result the technique of superior capsular reconstruction has been developed as an alternative solution in these patients. This technique is supported by biomechanical rationale as well as early promising clinical results with significant improvements in pain, range of motion, and patient-reported outcomes. For these reasons there is great interest in this procedure and the continued evolution of technical improvements. Techniques have included a variety of grafts and modes of fixation but little is known at present regarding the most ideal technique. Superior capsular reconstruction does offer great promise to fill a previously unmet need and as such further investigation is warranted to define the nuances of technique and supporting clinical outcomes.

Pregnancy After Breast Cancer Appears Safe

hysicians have often assumed that pregnancy after breast cancer increases the risk of cancer recurrence.But research presented at the eighth European Breast Cancer Conference in March adds to the growing evidence that this assumption is wrong.In a retrospective analysis, Hatem Azim, M.D., a medical oncologist at the Jules Bordet Institute in Brussels, Belgium, reported that 333 women who became pregnant at any time after being diagnosed with breast cancer had no higher risk of recurrence than that of a control group of 874 breast cancer patients who did not become pregnant.All women in the study group were monitored for an average of 4.7 years after becoming pregnant.The study was the fi rst to look at estrogen receptor (ER) status in particular.Women with ER-positive (ER + ) breast cancers who became pregnant had no higher risk of cancer recurrence than that of women with ER-negative (ER Ϫ ) cancers.That pregnancy did not increase the risk of women with ER + breast cancer relapsing is especially signifi cant, said David Cameron, M.D., professor of oncology at the University of Edinburgh, Scotland."If pregnancy were to increase the chance that breast cancer would recur because of high levels of estrogen, one would expect to see increased risk only in women with ER + breast cancer, and one does not in this study.It ' s a very important study."Azim ' s study also implicitly suggests that aborting a pregnancy does not affect breast cancer recurrence.Some studies

Human detection with and without weapon using LTE-based passive Forward Scattering Radar System

Abstract Firstly, radar is a system that has a radio transmitter that transmits radio waves, which will be received by a receiver, and it is used for detecting and locating objects. The passive radar system only receives signal from existing transmitters such as telecommunication antenna by using radio signal for tracking, detecting and so on. This experimental study was conducted with a human holding a weapon representing intruders that cross borders illegally into the country. Existing commercial telecommunication antenna was used as the transmitter transmitting the electromagnetic waves, and the system received the waves by using the receiver antenna. There are many techniques for a passive radar but in this case, we used the forward scattering region to detect human with and without weapon. The Doppler signature from human detection is produced when the receiver antenna detects any presence of a human that passes through between the transmitter and receiver. Two LTE frequencies used in this experimental work were 1.8 GHz and 2.63 GHz with several providers and have wider LTE coverage. The data from human detection was collected using LTE based passive forward scattering radar system, and was then analysed using Matlab programme. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was used to classify the human without weapon and human holding a weapon into two categories. This system successfully classified the human with and without weapon and could be used by the military for border protection.

Determination of Neutrino Mass from Tritium Beta Decay

The most sensitive way to determine the neutrino mass scale without further assumptions is to measure the shape of a tritium beta spectrum near its endpoint. Tritium is the nucleus of choice because of its low endpoint energy, superallowed decay, simple nuclear properties and simple atomic structure. Tritium beta decay experiments have been performed for more than 60 years yielding in an upper limit of the electron neutrino mass of 2 eV/c2. The Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino experiment (KATRIN) will improve the sensitivity on the neutrino mass by another order of magnitude. This article gives a short survey of 6 decades of tritium beta decay experiments and discusses the future steps.

Metrics of clonidine utilization in maintenance hemodialysis patients

Background: Clonidine is less frequently used by nephrologists. Data on clonidine prescribing trends in hemodialysis patients is sparse. We assessed the clonidine utilization metrics from the case records of patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis.Methods: In this retrospective chart review, we analysed the clinical records of hemodialysis patients using clonidine. We evaluated the frequency of clonidine use, mean dose of clonidine and percentage of patients receiving a particular dose. Additionally, we also correlated dose of clonidine with anti-hypertensive pill count.Results: A total of 70 hemodialysis patients case records were screened. All 70/70 (100%) of them were hypertensive. Only 25/70 (35.74%) of patients were prescribed clonidine as an anti-hypertensive agent. The mean clonidine dose was 352±171 µg. Majority of patients 9/25 (36%) received 400 µg of clonidine. The dose of clonidine was prescribed in the order 400 µg (36%)&gt;200 µg (32%)&gt;600 µg (16%)&gt;100 µg (8%)&gt;300 µg (4%)=700 µg (4%). There was a statistically significant correlation in the strength of clonidine prescribed with increasing anti-hypertensive drugs (p&lt;0.05).Conclusions: In our study, we observed that 80% of our hemodialysis patients were non responders to either systolic blood pressure or diastolic blood pressure or both. Oral clonidine use was observed in 35.74% of our hemodialysis patients. There was a linear trend showing an increased dose of clonidine with an increase in the anti-hypertensive pill count.

Periodic Lateralized Epileptiform Discharges in Children

Thirteen children in whom electroencephalography revealed periodic lateralized epileptiform discharges in the acute phase of cerebral involvement were included in this study. Four were diagnosed as having influenza-associated encephalopathy, two nonherpetic limbic encephalitis, two theophylline-associated seizures, one Mycoplasma pneumoniae encephalitis, one acute encephalopathy, and one bacterial meningitis. All patients developed seizures; six developed hemiconvulsions. As to prognosis, two died, six had some neurologic sequelae, and five had no neurologic sequelae. Although periodic lateralized epileptiform discharges are not disease specific, the importance of these disorders had not been focused on as a cause of periodic lateralized epileptiform discharges.

Building temporary structures with sand in the hot-arid climate of Saudi-Arabia

For a travelling exhibition in Saudi-Arabia I have researched ways to build with sand in a temporary way. Using the existing sandbag-technique 'super adobe' of Nader Khalili combined with an inflatable roof a new method is born. This building system allows changes and flexibility when the building travels. It is more sustainable than the current systems and can adapt easy. The design-focus is on traditional Arabian building methods and geometric patterns. The fundaments of beauty and proportion are researched.

[Processes of plant colonization by Methylobacterium strains and some bacterial properties ].

The pink-pigmented facultative methylotrophic bacteria (PPFMB) of the genus Methylobacterium are indespensible inhabitants of the plant phyllosphere. Using maize Zea mays as a model, the ways of plant colonization by PPFMB and some properties of the latter that might be beneficial to plants were studied. A marked strain, Methylobacterium mesophilicum APR-8 (pULB113), was generated to facilitate the detection of the methylotrophic bacteria inoculated into the soil or applied to the maize leaves. Colonization of maize leaves by M. mesophilicum APR-8 (pULB113) occurred only after the bacteria were applied onto the leaf surface. In this case, the number of PPFMB cells on inoculated leaves increased with plant growth. During seed germination, no colonization of maize leaves with M. mesophilicum cells occurred immediately from the soil inoculated with the marked strain. Thus, under natural conditions, colonization of plant leaves with PPFMB seems to occur via soil particle transfer to the leaves by air. PPFMB monocultures were not antagonistic to phytopathogenic bacteria. However, mixed cultures of epiphytic bacteria containing Methylobacterium mesophilicum or M. extorquens did exhibit an antagonistic effect against the phytopathogenic bacteria studied (Xanthomonas camprestris, Pseudomonas syringae, Erwinia carotovora, Clavibacter michiganense, and Agrobacterium tumifaciens). Neither epiphytic and soil strains of Methylobacterium extorquens, M. organophillum, M. mesophilicum, and M. fujisawaense catalyzed ice nucleation. Hence, they cause no frost injury to plants. Thus, the results indicate that the strains of the genus Methylobacterium can protect plants against adverse environmental factors.

IPESI: A Traditional (Informal) Way of Crime Control among Ekiti People of South West Nigeria

This paper examines how a traditional festival amongst Ekiti people serves as an informal way of crime and deviant control. The study investigates how the festival is been done in other part of Ekiti Communities apart from the study site. The roles performed by the festival in checkmating peoples attitude towards crime was also discussed in the study. Ido Ekiti, Ekiti State Southwest, Nigeria was the study location. The name ‘IPESI' was interpreted as the festival of criminals and deviants among the people of Ekiti though this paper established that different community has their own name to the festival. Purposive sampling method was adopted for the study. In gathering the data, qualitative method was adopted in which participant observation method was used. Five Key Informant Interviews (KIIs) were undertaken among the leaders in the study site. In addition two FGDs were conducted among the community youths and the elders in Ido Ekiti. The findings revealed that the yearly festival is one of the way in which crime and deviant behaviour have been controlled in the community. It was established from the study that songs of numerous types, irritating characters were established against the victim(s) during the festival. Also it was revealed from the study that the festival is been attached to a particular festive period in some communities i.e. Ileya period, Easter period, or Xmas/New year; while some designate a particular period for the festival. From the findings it was shown that five to seven days is assigned as a period of celebration of the festival. It was equally established that people respect this method of crime control more than the formal method because it even involved the family members of the victim, and it has a negative impact on both the victim and the family presently and in future. It was established that the festival serves as a direct way by which the societal members get involved in criminal justice of the community as a result of different rites performed during the festival.

Data from Inhibition of Growth and Metastasis of Mouse Mammary Carcinoma by Selective Inhibitor of Transforming Growth Factor-β Type I Receptor Kinase &lt;i&gt;In vivo&lt;/i&gt;

&lt;div&gt;Abstract&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Purpose:&lt;/b&gt; Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) suppresses tumor development by inhibiting cellular proliferation, inducing differentiation and apoptosis, and maintaining genomic integrity. However, once tumor cells escape from the tumor-suppressive effects of TGF-β, they often constitutively overexpress and activate TGF-β, which may promote tumor progression by enhancing invasion, metastasis, and angiogenesis and by suppressing antitumor immunity. The purpose of this study was to test this hypothesis using TGF-β pathway antagonists.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Experimental Design:&lt;/b&gt; We examined the effects of selective TGF-β type I receptor kinase inhibitors, SD-093 and SD-208, on two murine mammary carcinoma cell lines (R3T and 4T1) &lt;i&gt;in vitro&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;in vivo&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Results:&lt;/b&gt; Both agents blocked TGF-β-induced phosphorylation of the receptor-associated Smads, Smad2 and Smad3, in a dose-dependent manner, with IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; between 20 and 80 nmol/L. TGF-β failed to inhibit growth of these cell lines but stimulated epithelial-to-mesenchymal transdifferentiation, migration, and invasiveness into Matrigel &lt;i&gt;in vitro&lt;/i&gt;. These effects were inhibited by SD-093, indicating that these processes are partly driven by TGF-β. Treatment of syngeneic R3T or 4T1 tumor-bearing mice with orally given SD-208 inhibited primary tumor growth as well as the number and size of metastases. In contrast, SD-208 failed to inhibit R3T tumor growth or metastasis in athymic nude mice. Moreover, &lt;i&gt;in vitro&lt;/i&gt; anti-4T1 cell cytotoxic T-cell responses of splenocytes from drug-treated animals were enhanced compared with cells from control animals. In addition, SD-208 treatment resulted in a decrease in tumor angiogenesis.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/b&gt; TGF-β type I receptor kinase inhibitors hold promise as novel therapeutic agents for metastatic breast cancer.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Spice-based flux-linkage model for switched reluctance motors

This paper presents a Spice-based flux-linkage model for the switched-reluctance motor (SRM). At present, most of the conventional methods require numerous data points of flux-linkage corresponding to rotor position and phase current to build a model, but this is time-ineffective. In the proposed method, the flux linkage is represented by a limited number of Fourier series terms. The coefficients of the Fourier series are determined by using the Froelich function. The proposed method allows the model to be built with a minimal number of static-characteristic data points, which are simply obtained through finite-element analysis (FEA); this allows for easy implementation and high computational efficiency. With the proposed Spice-based model, the converters of SRM drive system can be designed on the platform of Spice. The proposed model is validated with the experimental results.
