Abstract:
‘Take my camel, dear’, said my aunt Dot, as she climbed down from this animal on her return from High Mass.Thus begins, with one of the most memorable opening sentences in twentieth-century Anglophone fiction, Dame Rose Macaulay’s novel The Towers of Trebizond. It is now largely seen as a somewhat quirky ‘niche novel’ for Anglican aunts or a perfect present for the diminishing number of ordinands with historical and literary interests. In fact, Trebizond was a transatlantic literary sensation, a best-seller as well as a critical success. It won Macaulay the prestigious James Tait Black Memoria

Abstract:
Family structure has long been a consideration in research focused on adolescent outcomes. The current study uses data derived from the Mobile Youth Survey to examine how parental warmth differs over time for male and female adolescents reporting biological parents and other parental figures (e.g., grandparents, aunts, and siblings). Using estimation of random and fixed growth effects, significant differences were noted for parental type and for adolescent gender. Paternal warmth trajectories decreased across time for biological fathers, while maternal warmth remained stable for biological mot

Sociological theory and research suggest that experiencing family members’ deaths during childhood and adolescence is an important event subject to significant disparities.

In this study the authors estimate the rates and educational impacts of experiencing the deaths of immediate (siblings, parents) and extended (aunts and uncles, cousins, and grandparents) family members during c

This color change is followed by a decrease in the intensity of the primary Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) peak at a wavelength (λ) of 525 nm and an increase in the secondary peak at λ = 650 nm.

However, coralyne induced poly (dA) to form double-stranded DNA, which then left the AuNPs resulting in the arrgregation by NaCl.

Abstract Purpose To observe the immunological responses of recipients to infused lymphocytes from donors of different genetic backgrounds. Methods Mouse models were set up by mating female BALB/c mice with male C57BL mice. Splenic lymphocytes from donors of different genetic backgrounds were labeled with CFSE, and 1∙107 of the cells were intravenously injected into a recipient. At 6, 24, 72 and 120 h after the infusion, mononuclear cells in recipient spleen, liver, thymus, lymph node and peripheral blood were collected, and CFSE+, CFSE-, CD3+, CD8+, CD4+, CD19+, NK1.1+, CD25+, CD127+ lymphocyt

Abstract:
Objective: We present the genotypic and phenotypic characterization of a family displaying dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Methods: The proband and his relatives underwent full cardiological assessment. Genetic analysis of the proband was performed with the use of next-generation sequencing technology. Results: In this study, we present 6 members of a family carrying the RBM20 mutation NM_001134363.2:c.1900C>T. The proband was initially diagnosed with DCM at the age of 18 years and received an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) due to ventricular arrhythmias. His brother, carrier of

Abstract:
This report describes a 66-year-old Caucasian male who acutely developed severe, bilateral impairment of visual acuity at 24 years of age. Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) was suspected but the diagnosis was not genetically confirmed until the age of 49 years when the primary LHON mutation m.3460G>A was detected. Since onset, visual acuity had slightly improved. The family history was positive for LHON (brother, two sisters of mother, female cousin) and genetically confirmed in his brother and one aunt. Since the age of 65 years, he had experienced recurrent vertigo. His cardiolog

Abstract:
Rudyard Kipling's final novel, Kim (1901), begins with an intriguing – if paradoxical – description of the eponymous Kim, or Kimball O'Hara: he is an “English” boy with an Irish name and Irish parentage who speaks “the [Indian] vernacular by preference” (1). While the narrator hastens to reassure the reader that Kim is both “white” and “English,” Kim is also “burned black as any native” and speaks his supposed “mother tongue,” English, in an “uncertain sing-song” (1). If we are to take Kipling's assertion at face value, that Kim is, indeed, “English,” then certainly this is a kind of Englishne

Abstract:
Tadeus Reichstein was born on 20 July 1897 in Wloclawek (in Russian Poland), the eldest of five sons of Jewish parents, Isidor Reichstein and Gustava Brochman (7)*. In Russia, in those days, only a small number of Jews were allowed to study at the technical high school in St Petersburg, and Tadeus's father, Isidor, considered himself extremely fortunate to have been selected. He received virtually no financial support, and in order to survive embarked on an austere self-disciplined routine, limiting his daily meal to one herring, black bread and water. After a while, he managed to earn a meagr

Abstract:
20 Background: While GC arises as part of several hereditary cancer syndromes, a genetic etiology is not identified for most FGC kindreds and EOGC patients. We hypothesize that NGS of germline DNA may reveal previously unsuspected genomic alterations that predispose to EOGC/FGC. Methods: We identified 42 Pts from a prospective GC registry with CDH1-mutation negative EOGC (≤50 years old) and/or with FGC. Germline DNA was analyzed by MSK-IMPACT, a 468-gene targeted NGS panel that includes > 70 genes associated with known cancer predisposition syndromes. GATK HaplotypeCaller (HTC) was used to
