Abstract:

The cry for decolonization has echoed throughout the museum world. Although perhaps most audibly heard in the case of ethnographic museums, many different types of museums have felt the need to engage in decolonial practices. Amidst those who have argued that an institution as deeply colonial as the museum cannot truly be decolonized, museum staff and museologists have been approaching the issue from different angles to practice decoloniality in any way they can. This book collects a wide range of practices from museums whose audiences, often highly diverse, come together in sometimes contentious conversations about pasts and futures. Although there are no easy or uniform answers as to how best to deal with colonial pasts, this collection of practices functions as an accessible toolkit from which museum staff can choose in order to experiment with and implement methods according to their own needs and situations. The practices are divided thematically and include, among others, methods for decentering, improving transparency, and increasing inclusivity.

Abstract:

Chapter 2 begins with a depiction of the evolutionary origins of CRF in living things. CRF appears to date back hundreds of millions of years. It is found in diverse invertebrates, including flies and bees. Invertebrates’ brains look nothing like those of vertebrates except for the diverse information molecules that underlie both brain systems. There is no clear anatomical organ like the HPA axis in invertebrates, yet information molecules, including CRF, are just as important to invertebrate functioning as they are to vertebrates. CRF in invertebrates is linked to basic regulatory functions such as osmotic regulation, food intake, learning, and circadian rhythmicity. There are many examples of regulatory molecules that, over time, become adapted to serve multiple functions. Once a gene for a potent regulatory molecule exists, the potential for the differentiation of function, regulation, and mode of action exist as well.

Abstract:

This book discusses just how diverse a peptide corticotrophin-releasing factor (CRF) is, as demonstrated by its presence in various tissues in the body, including the skin, the placenta, and various regions of the brain. As Dobzhansky (1962) noted, in light of Darwin (1874), and beyond, CRF must be placed in the larger world of regulatory biology. Evolutionary trends do not proceed in a continuous one-dimensional direction; there are starts, turns, and abrupt ends. The study of CRF is mostly about diverse functions in physiological and behavioral regulation of the internal milieu and adapting to an ecological and or social context. The book begins with a depiction of the evolutionary origins of CRF in living things, dating back hundreds of millions of years. The book pushes the conception of CRF beyond the HPA axis and common knowledge. We study the role of CRF in metamorphosis and parturition. Further, CRF is a contributor to fear and anxiety, and the book explains how excessive fear is tied to anxiety disorders and vulnerability to the breakdown of mental and physical health. Also discussed is CRF in approach/avoidance behaviors across pre- and postnatal events. CRF is intimately involved in organ development, but it is also linked to devolution of function and conditions of danger. Cravings, addictions, and how CRF is tied both to the ingestion of diverse drugs and to withdrawal are explored. CRF is considered as an epistemic object, addressing what constitutes an information molecule, in general, and CRF, in particular.

Abstract:

Echocardiography plays a pivotal role in the management of patients with dilative cardiomyopathy and conduction disease, particularly in the setting of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). Current CRT guidelines recommend the echocardiographic assessment of left ventricular size and function. Furthermore, echocardiography has the potential of analysing regional myocardial mechanics with high temporal resolution and without radiation burden or danger for the patient. Assessment of left ventricular dyssynchrony has therefore become the next challenge. Besides the visual approaches, newer methods of functional imaging such as tissue Doppler and speckle tracking allow the exact quantification of regional myocardial function. This chapter reviews the current status of left ventricular dyssynchrony assessment by echocardiography and introduces emerging techniques which can better link conduction abnormalities and mechanical events and, thus, potentially improve clinical decision-making in this field.

Abstract:

CRF is well known and studied as a hypothalamic-releasing factor. It, along with ACTH and cortisol, are mobilized under diverse conditions, including adversity, and are often thought of as part of the stress axis. CRF, however, is much more than this. One aim of this book is pushing the conception of CRF beyond the HPA axis, and what most people know about CRF. Since its original discovery, research has shown that this molecule is much broader than a hypothalamic-releasing factor. It took a while to discern CRF and its properties outside of its role as an ACTH-releasing factor. Now, the scientific community knows that CRF is a dynamic and diversely widespread peptide hormone with many roles and functions, beyond its role as a releasing factor in the brain. CRF in invertebrates is linked to basic regulatory functions such as osmotic regulation, food intake, learning, and circadian rhythmicity.

Abstract:

Heart Failure is a clinical syndrome characterized by symptoms and signs of systemic or pulmonary congestion, associated with elevated intracardiac filling pressures. The structural and functional abnormalities of the myocardium which characterize the heart failure state can be explored by various imaging approaches. Hence cardiac imaging plays an integral part in the evaluation the heart failure patient. Radionuclide imaging techniques may be uniquely suited to address several important clinical questions in heart failure related to etiology, the quantification and serial evaluation of LV function, and the selection of patients for therapies including coronary revascularization, implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICD) and cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT).

Abstract:

Chapter 7 speaks about how, while CRF is intimately involved in organ development, it is also linked to devolution of function and conditions of danger. CRF expression itself reveals developmental changes particularly in the brain. CRF is linked to diverse forms of learning and timing of events. But CRF may either enhance or degrade learning and memory. CRF tends to enhance salience and visibility, therefore learning and memory consolidation may be enhanced. However, excessive CRF expression begins to compromise these essential capabilities and promotes neural atrophy deterioration. The role of information molecules is to promote survival systems across life cycles. On the adaptive side, CRF promotes change and attention to change; on the nonadaptive side, CRF promotes decreased tissue capability and the acceleration of an aging process in end organ systems, as this chapter will discuss.

Abstract:

Detecting causal interactions among climatic, environmental, and human forces in complex biophysical systems is essential for understanding how these systems function and how public policies can be devised that protect the flow of essential services to biological diversity, agriculture, and other core economic activities. Convergent Cross Mapping (CCM) detects causal networks in real-world systems diagnosed with deterministic, low-dimension, and nonlinear dynamics. If CCM detects correspondence between phase spaces reconstructed from observed time series variables, then the variables are determined to causally interact in the same dynamic system. CCM can give false positives by misconstruing synchronized variables as causally interactive. Extended (delayed) CCM screens for false positives among synchronized variables.

Abstract:

The EHRA Book of Pacemaker, ICD and CRT Troubleshooting assists device specialists in tackling both common and unusual situations that that they may encounter during daily practice. Taking a case-based approach, it examines pacemakers, implantable cardioverter defibrillators and cardiac resynchronisation therapy. Much more than just a technical manual of device algorithms, the cases help readers to consolidate their technical knowledge, and improve their reasoning and observation skills so they are able to tackle device troubleshooting with confidence. The 70 cases are arranged in three sections by increasing levels of difficulty to walk readers through all the skills and knowledge they need in an easy to use and structured format. Each case contains a short clinical description and a device tracing followed by a multiple choice question. Answers are supplied with detailed annotations of the tracing and an in-depth discussion of the case, highlighting practical hints and tips as well as providing an overview of the technical function of devices. A useful summary of principal device features and functions is also included.

To this end, the methodology used in the research were bibliographic sources of qualitative nature from the socialhistorical cultural perspective, i.e., one that seeks to understand a given phenomenon from a given context, establishing a dialogical relationship between the individual, the society and their historical and cultural processes. It presents a descriptive account of the methodological process developed, by which it could be concluded that the TDIC is already part of people’s daily lives and the school has the cultural function of teaching the so-called digital students - those born in the midst of the TDIC culture. From the mobilized literature it was also evident that, although the TDIC are used to enhance teaching and learning, there is a lack in the teacher’s curriculum training courses and also in the school’s infrastructure to the insertion and integration of those technologies in the school culture.

Abstract:

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) has become one of the great pillars of cardiac imaging. Modern CMR, as we now practise it, is the result of an enormous method and application development effort that has occurred over the past 25 years and has taken CMR from its humble beginnings of anatomical T₁- and T₂-weighted imaging to the extremely versatile, accurate, and robust technique it is now. The main developments over this time, building on the anatomical imaging, were the establishment of cine imaging for assessment of cardiac function, first-pass perfusion imaging for measurement of perfusion reserve, as well as myocardial blood flow (in millilitres per minute and gram), late gadolinium enhancement for imaging of scar and patchy fibrosis, and two-dimensional flow velocity imaging for assessment of valve and shunt lesions. This textbook intends to explore and evaluate all areas of this fascinating subject.

Full text

Abstract:

Drug addiction can be conceptualized as a disorder that progresses from neurobiological mechanisms involved in positive reinforcement to mechanisms involved in negative reinforcement. Neurobiological substrates for the positive reinforcement of drug abuse involve activation of the brain’s incentive salience and reward systems, such as dopamine and opioid peptides, and neurobiological substrates for the negative reinforcement of drug addiction involve the brain stress systems, such as corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF), norepinephrine, and dynorphin in the ventral striatum and extended amygdala. Decreased function of brain antistress systems further contributes to motivational dysfunction. A brain stress response system is hypothesized to be dysregulated by acute excessive drug intake, sensitized during repeated withdrawal, persist into protracted abstinence, and contribute to the allostatic changes in motivation associated with addiction. From a theoretical perspective, the combination of loss of reward function and recruitment of brain stress systems drives the compulsivity of addiction and provides a rich neurobiological substrate for therapeutic interventions.

Abstract:

Delirium in the postoperative period, characterized by inattention, disorganized thinking, disorientation, and/or altered levels of consciousness within the first few days after surgery, has been associated with significant increases in hospital stay, functional decline, prolonged cognitive dysfunction, and mortality. It is underdiagnosed without routine assessments with validated tools such as the Confusion Assessment Method (CAM), the 4AT, the Confusion Assessment Method for Intensive Care Unit (CAM-ICU), or the Intensive Care Delirium Screening Checklist (ICDSC). Prevention strategies for postoperative delirium include multimodal pain control, judicious use of medications that affect the sensorium, including benzodiazepines and anticholinergics, maintenance of appropriate volume status, and optimization of the patient’s environment. In patients who develop delirium with severe agitation, antipsychotic and alpha-2 agonist medications may be useful. Because postoperative delirium occurs commonly and is associated with worse outcomes, an understanding of its disease process, risk factors, and management is essential for an anesthesiologist.

Full text

Abstract:

Since the publication of the first edition of Gene Targeting: A Practical Approach in 1993 there have been many advances in gene targeting and this new edition has been thoroughly updated and rewritten to include all the major new techniques. It provides not only tried-and-tested practical protocols but detailed guidance on their use and applications. As with the previous edition Gene Targeting: A Practical Approach 2e concentrates on gene targeting in mouse ES cells, but the techniques described can be easily adapted to applications in tissue culture including those for human cells. The first chapter covers the design of gene targeting vectors for mammalian cells and describes how to distinguish random integrations from homologous recombination. It is followed by a chapter on extending conventional gene targeting manipulations by using site-specific recombination using the Cre-loxP and Flp-FRT systems to produce 'clean' germline mutations and conditionally (in)activating genes. Chapter 3 describes methods for introducing DNA into ES cells for homologous recombination, selection and screening procedures for identifying and recovering targeted cell clones, and a simple method for establishing new ES cell lines. Chapter 4 discusses the pros and cons or aggregation versus blastocyst injection to create chimeras, focusing on the technical aspects of generating aggregation chimeras and then describes some of the uses of chimeras. The next topic covered is gene trap strategies; the structure, components, design, and modification of GT vectors, the various types of GT screens, and the molecular analysis of GT integrations. The final chapter explains the use of classical genetics in gene targeting and phenotype interpretation to create mutations and elucidate gene functions. Gene Targeting: A Practical Approach 2e will therefore be of great value to all researchers studying gene function.
