Untying the Gordian knot of pericardial diseases: A pragmatic approach

Genetics of lupus-untying the Gordian knot!

Untying the Gordian Knot of Cytokinesis

Ability to divide is one of the basic properties of a cell. In metazoans, where cells divide in a context of germ layers, tissues, and organs, cell proliferation must be coordinated with differentiation to prevent developmental abnormalities. Genetic analyses in simple model systems (yeast, slime mold, fruit fly) have demonstrated that defects in either karyokinesis, or nuclear division (e.g., ...

The Neuroscience of Time and Number: Untying the Gordian Knot

Many aspects of the neuroscience of time and number (NEUTIN), as well as its associated psychophysics, have objective, absolute qualities reminiscent of Newtonian physics. For example, both time and number representations have been hypothesized to be based on the absolute value of a pulse-accumulation process generated by a neural pacemaker whose temporal integration is linear with the duration...

Critical care dialysis--a Gordian knot (but is untying the right approach?).

Will manipulations of dialytic therapy have any real Dialysis support for the critically-ill patient with acute effect on the devastatingly poor outcome of the renal failure (ARF) is now under scrutiny [1], but condition? despite the increasing attention many crucial questions The consistently high mortality of ICU ARF over remain unanswered. In this article, we examine some the years hides the...

Untying the Climate - Development Gordian Knot : Economic Options in a Politically Constrained World

Climate policies must deal with a contradiction generic to global environment policies: as was recognized as early as in 1972 at the UN conference on Human Environment at Stockholm, the participation of developing countries is essential. The current emissions of developing countries are also significant. If the trend continues, the future share of global emissions from developing countries will...
