Desmoplastic infantile astrocytomas (DIA) are huge cerebral masses with cystic and solid components in infants with a benigncourse. Less than 50 cases of have been reported in the literature and most of the cases are children below 24 months. We arepresenting a rare case of DIA which presented at the age of 4 years with vomiting and headache in neurosurgical OPD. He wasdiagnosed with a huge left temporal parietal tumor with midline shift which on histopathological examination was confirmedas DIA. Patient was operated and had good recovery and was followed up for two years
Voices Beyond Bars: A Qualitative Study Examining Occupational Participation for Formerly Incarcerated Women
This capstone project addressed the research question: âWhat are the systemic, societal, and personal barriers and facilitators to occupational participation and engagement that formerly incarcerated women experience in Texas?â The project aimed to advocate for formerly incarcerated women living in Texas by interviewing and collaborating with them to create an advocacy booklet highlighting their lived experiences. Following USAHS IRB approval, recruitment, and screening, 20 participants engaged in a semi-structured interview via Zoom. Insights on their experience post-incarceration in Texas regarding housing, employment, family, healthcare, and change were explored. The data obtained was analyzed and codes and themes were identified. When examining the results of the study, occupational participation and engagement for formerly incarcerated women were influenced by factors on personal, societal, and systemic levels. The Participatory Occupational Justice Framework was used when collaborating with formerly incarcerated women to reflect and collaborate on how to address occupational injustices of occupational imbalance, occupational alienation, and occupational deprivation, as mentioned previously. Through the interview process, the formerly incarcerated women provided incredible insight and reflection on their experience post-incarceration and the changes that need to occur to properly address the occupational injustices they face. The advocacy booklet serves as the mode of collaboration between the participant and the researchers, as it creates an avenue for the voices of the participants to be amplified.https://soar.usa.edu/otdcapstonesspring2024/1044/thumbnail.jp
A uniĂŁo dos opostos: A teoria YÄȘN YĂNG é°éœ no livro de medicina chinesa HUĂNG DĂ NĂI JÄȘNG é»ćžć §ç¶ = The unity of opposites: the theory YÄȘN YĂNG é°éœ in the book of Chinese medicine HUĂNG DĂ NĂI JÄȘNG é»ćžć §ç¶
O HUĂNG DĂ NĂI JÄȘNG é»ćžć
§ç¶ Ă© considerado atĂ© hoje um
dos livros mais importantes e valiosos sobre medicina chinesa. EvidĂȘncias
sugerem que sua base foi formada por um conjunto de textos escritos durante
o perĂodo dos Estados Combatentes (475-221 AEC), passando pela dinastia
Qin (221-206 AEC) e pela dinastia Han (206 AEC-221 DEC), embora as
versÔes mais antigas que chegaram até nós, remontem da dinastia Song (970-
1279). Compartilhando visÔes de mundo com vårias outras escolas filosóficas
chinesas antigas, o HUĂNG DĂ NĂI JÄȘNG compreende o ser humano e a
natureza como entidades inseparĂĄveis e em constante mutação, impermanĂȘncia,
interdependĂȘncia e relação. Esta cosmologia foi explicada, especialmente, por
meio de duas teorias de correspondĂȘncias sistemĂĄticas: Cinco Movimentos WÇ
XĂNG äșèĄ e YÄȘN YĂNG é°éœ. Segundo esta Ășltima, todos os aspectos do
universo, incluindo o prĂłprio corpo humano, poderiam ser compreendidos por
meio de uma polaridade chamada de YÄȘN YĂNG: a realidade como a uniĂŁo dinĂąmica dos opostos. Essa teoria, alĂ©m de estar presente em diversos aspectos
da cultura chinesa antiga como polĂtica, astrologia, histĂłria e filosofia, a partir
da compilação do HUĂNG DĂ NĂI JÄȘNG tambĂ©m se tornou uma das
principais ferramentas de sistematização, interpretação e compreensão da
medicina chinesa em geral e do ser humano em particular. / The HUĂNG DĂ NĂI JÄȘNG é»ćžć
§ç¶ is considered one of the
most important and valuable books about Chinese medicine. Available
evidence suggests that at the basis of HUĂNG DĂ NĂI JÄȘNG is a layer of
texts written during the end of the Warring States period (475-221 B.C),
through Qin dynasty (221-206 B.C) and beginning of Western Han dynasty
(206 B.C â 9 A.C). Sharing world views with several ancient Chinese
philosophical schools, the HUĂNG DĂ NĂI JÄȘNG understand human beings
and nature as inseparable entities in incessant mutation, impermanence,
interdependence and relations. This cosmology was explained by, specially, two
systematic correspondence theories: Five Movements WÇ XĂNG äșèĄ and
YÄȘN YĂNG é°éœ. According to this last one, all universe aspects, including
the human body itself, could be understood as a polarity denominate YÄȘN
YĂNG: the reality as a dynamic unity of opposites. This theory, besides be
present in several aspects of ancient Chinese culture like politics, astrology,
history and philosophy, since the compilation of HUĂNG DĂ NĂI JÄȘNG also
became one of the main keys of systematization, interpretation and
understanding of Chinese medicine in general and human beings in particular
O Vazio do Coração XÄȘN XĆȘ ćżè: InterpretaçÔes sobre o livro de medicina chinesa HUĂNG DĂ NĂI JÄȘNG LĂNG SHĆȘ é»ćžć §ç¶éæš = The Heartâs Emptiness XÄȘN XĆȘ ćżè: interpretations about the book of Chinese medicine HUĂNG DĂ NĂI JÄȘNG LĂNG SHĆȘ é»ćžć §ç¶é æš

§ç¶éæš que tem apresentado um importante papel na histĂłria da medicina chinesa hĂĄ mais de dois mil anos atĂ© os dias de hoje. EvidĂȘncias disponĂveis sugerem que as bases do LĂNG SHĆȘ éæš sĂŁo um conjunto de textos escritos durante o final do perĂodo dos Estados Combatentes (475-221 AEC), passando pela dinastia Qin (221-206 AEC) e o começo da dinastia Han do Oeste (206 AEC-9 DEC). No capĂtulo 8 do LĂNG SHĆȘ, o Coração Ă© apresentado como Vazio XĆȘ è, Vazio semelhante ao CĂ©u TIÄN 怩 e, assim, a residĂȘncia dos EspĂritos SHĂN ç„ e nossa conexĂŁo com a natureza. O Coração era dito Vazio por ser capaz de permanecer livre de apego ou aversĂŁo a qualquer experiĂȘncia, fenĂŽmeno ou ser. A noção de Vazio do Coração XÄȘN XĆȘ ćżè foi escrita por meio da influĂȘncia de alguns textos DaoĂstas como LÇOZÇ èć e ZHĆȘANGZÇ èć e, assim, conseguimos compreender a forte relação entre a medicina chinesa e vĂĄrios outros aspectos da cultura chinesa. / This article is a study about the concept of Heart XÄȘN ćż in the

Warring States period (475-221 B.C), through Qin dynasty (221-206 B.C) and

chapter 8, the Heart is presented as Emptiness XĆȘ è, empty as Heaven TIÄN 怩
and, thereby, the residence of the Spirits SHĂN ç„ and connection between us
and nature. The Heart is Empty because it is able to remain free from
attachment and aversion to any experience, phenomenon or living being. The
notion of Heartâs Emptiness XÄȘN XĆȘ ćżè was written under the influence of
Daoists texts such as LÇOZÇ èć and ZHĆȘANGZÇ èć, thus we can
comprehend the strong relation between Chinese medicine and several another
aspects of Chinese culture
Moisture Dependent Physical Properties of Black gram
Physical properties of Black gram are important during harvesting, cleaning and drying with machines and also during improvement of these machines. This study was conducted to evaluate some moisture-dependent physical properties of Black gram namely, grain dimensions, thousand grain mass, surface area, sphericity, bulk density, true density, porosity and angle of repose. As the moisture content increased from 8.696% to 21.951% d.b., the three axial dimensions of the Black gram increased and the arithmetic and geometric mean diameter ranged from 3.736 ± 0.14 to 4.276 ± 0.14 mm and 3.797 ± 0.13 to 4.322 ± 0.13 mm respectively. The hundred grain mass of Black gram were 42.52 ± 1.03 and 48.18 ± 0.45 kg. The sphericity values of Black gram increased from 79.69% to 82.82%. The bulk and true densities values for Black gram decreased with increase in moisture content. The porosity and angle of repose of Black gram increased from 38.06 to 42.60% and 28.4 to 32.2° respectively with increase in moisture content from 8.696% to 21.951% d.b
A case of early neonate bovine tuberculosis in Ethiopia.
This report illustrates that calves may be infected with bovine tuberculosis at early age under natural conditions and progression can be rapid. Thus, testing of calves needs to be considered in any control program to reduce the risk of transmission
Astronomical Spectroscopy
Spectroscopy is one of the most important tools that an astronomer has for
studying the universe. This chapter begins by discussing the basics, including
the different types of optical spectrographs, with extension to the ultraviolet
and the near-infrared. Emphasis is given to the fundamentals of how
spectrographs are used, and the trade-offs involved in designing an
observational experiment. It then covers observing and reduction techniques,
noting that some of the standard practices of flat-fielding often actually
degrade the quality of the data rather than improve it. Although the focus is
on point sources, spatially resolved spectroscopy of extended sources is also
briefly discussed. Discussion of differential extinction, the impact of
crowding, multi-object techniques, optimal extractions, flat-fielding
considerations, and determining radial velocities and velocity dispersions
provide the spectroscopist with the fundamentals needed to obtain the best
data. Finally the chapter combines the previous material by providing some
examples of real-life observing experiences with several typical instruments.Comment: An abridged version of a chapter to appear in Planets, Stars and
Stellar Systems, to be published in 2011 by Springer. Slightly revise
