Grounded in Vygotskian sociocultural theory, we propose a novel methodology for second language teacher cognition research called dialogic restorying. We exemplify this methodological innovation by presenting qualitative longitudinal project which prompted L2 teachers to revisit and restory what Veresov (2017) calls “dramatic moments” extracted from reflections they wrote throughout their learn...

In this study, we used several molecular techniques to develop a fast and reliable protocol (DNA Verity Test, DVT) for the characterization and confirmation of the species or taxa present in herbal infusions. As a model plant for this protocol, Camellia sinensis, a traditional tea plant, was selected due to the following reasons: its historical popularity as a (healthy) beverage, its high selli...

We introduce the notion of weighted limit in an arbitrary quasi-category, suitably generalizing ordinary limits a and classical category. This is accomplished by Joyal’s approach: we identify meaningful construction for quasi-category cones over diagram whose terminal object considered diagram. then show that each can be expressed as limit. When arises homotopy coherent nerve category enriched ...

Bryson, Janet M., Jenny L. Phuyal, Verity Swan, and Ian D. Caterson. Leptin has acute effects on glucose and lipid metabolism in both lean and gold thioglucose-obese mice. Am. J. Physiol. 277 (Endocrinol. Metab. 40): E417– E422, 1999.—Leptin is reported to have effects in peripheral tissues that are independent of its central effects on food intake and body weight. In this study, the acute effe...

As a vital element affecting economic efficiency, the impact of marine industrial structure upgrading on economy has become hot topic, and China is not an exception. This paper analyzed dynamic relationship efficiency to verity “structural bonus” “cost disease” effects. The results confirmed existence cost disease in China’s economy, although occasionally it illustrated structural bonus effects...

    Molecular epidemiology is a subdivision of medical science and epidemiology that emphases on the involvement of potential environmental and genetic risk factors, recognized at the molecular level, to the etiology and avoidance of sickness through populations. This arena has developed from the combination of molecular biology and traditional epidemiological research. Molecular...

The recent hype surrounding the antimelanogenic properties of glutathione has resulted in physicians frequently administering it as a "wonder" drug for skin lightening and treatment of hyperpigmentation, especially in ethnic populations with darker skin tones. This phenomenon has seen a recent surge owing to aggressive marketing and capitalization of pharma-cosmeceutical companies. However, the...
