This article traces the emergence of term ‘turbulence’ to describe educational disruption experienced by military children after 1945. It asks why came dominate professional discussion education so much from late 1960s onwards and wider tensions it exposed in post-war Britain: between welfare warfare; ‘tradition’ progressiveness; individuals communities; families institutions. Moreover, this ar...

This article is to share some of the key scientific insights made by Dr Barry Bresnihan in rheumatoid arthritis. Dr Bresnihan elaborated new and visionary concepts in arthritis research, which still influence current thinking. He had been particularly dedicated to investigate the inflammatory tissue (synovitis) in RA, which he considered as a clue to understand the pathogenesis of this disease...

Inhibition of Fas-mediated apoptosis through administration of soluble Fas receptor improves functional outcome and reduces posttraumatic axonal degeneration after acute spinal cord injury. ProNGF induces p75-mediated death of oligodendrocytes following spinal cord injury. and delayed degeneration after spinal cord injury in rats and monkeys. Neutralization of CD95 ligand promotes regeneration ...

Rapid destruction of carotene occurs in alfalfa during the field curing process. The loss under good curing conditions may be 45 to 80 per cent of the carotene originally present (14). Hauge and Aitkenhead (5) and Hauge (6) presented evidence which indicates the presence of a carotenedestroying enzyme system in alfalfa. The belief that the destruction of carotene during field curing may be larg...

What is called osteoarthritis is the most common type of joint disease in humans. This term is doubly unsatisfactory, first because it implies that a bony abnormality, consisting of subchondral dense bone and/or osteophytes, is prominent when in fact it is often absent, and second because it does not describe a single disease. Osteoarthritis is usually used to describe the clinical and patholog...

Harvard-based Abraham Morgentaler, MD, FACS, has demonstrated this theory to be mistaken. Contrary to the notion that restoring testosterone to youthful levels is somehow risky, Dr. Morgentaler meticulously shows an increased risk of prostate cancer in aging men with low testosterone. This same information about the dangers of low testosterone was long ago uncovered by the Life Extension Founda...

n-sodium acrylate-o-carboxymethyl chitosan [cmch-g-paa(na)] bound fe3o4 nanoparticles were developed as a novel magnetic nanoparticles with an ionic structure that can be potentially used in many fields. cmch-g-paa (na) was obtained by grafting of sodium polyacrylate on o-carboxymethyl chitosan, which is an amphiphilic polyelectrolyte with the biocompatibility and biodegradability properties. a...

Radiation therapy is a widely used cancer treatment that utilizes high-energy radiation to target and destroy cells. However, challenges such as resistance exposure of healthy tissue the can limit its effectiveness. In this article, we explore various methods have been developed increase effectiveness in treatment. These include fractionation, image-guided (IGRT), radio sensitizers, hyper immun...
