Abstract:

This essay explores the Chinese imagination and “logic” that construct both literal and figurative ways of ascending to heaven from the mythic or imaginary facts to the pragmatic and spiritual practice. Many Taoist philosophers and alchemists draw on figurative language and allegories to demonstrate abstract notions and wisdom. This figurative mediation is reminiscent of Plato’s approach in staging Socrates as a “teller of myth”. The present study thus resorts to the theory of the imaginary to better illuminate the underlying symbolism and the universal imaginary in Chinese texts and thought.

In patients affected by chronic kidney disease (CKD), some ultrasonographic (US) abnormalities have been shown to correlate better than others with the progression of the disease. The aim of the study was to evaluate the prevalence of the most frequent renal US abnormalities in dogs at different stages of CKD, and to investigate their association with CKD International Renal Interest Society (IRIS) stages. Medical records and ultrasonographical report of 855 dogs were retrospectively included. The most frequent renal ultrasonographic abnormalities were: increased cortical echogenicity, abnorma

Abstract:

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a highly prevalent disease and common cause of morbidity and mortality in older cats. Early diagnosis and management of CKD is thought to be able to slow disease progression and impact positively on quality of life and longevity. Dietary management with a therapeutic renal diet is regarded as the mainstay of treatment for feline CKD from International Renal Interest Society (IRIS) stage 2 onwards. However, since the advent of markers such as symmetric dimethylarginine that have enabled clinicians to detect non-azotaemic CKD (IRIS stage 1 and some early stage 2 p

Abstract:

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a disease characterized by the gradual and functional loss of renal mass, affecting its physiology leading to clinical manifestations. The CKD reaches dogs of several breeds causing important clinical alterations. Some laboratory tests are determinant for the correct diagnosis and thus for the implementation of the most appropriate treatment. The urinalysis, urinary protein-creatinine ratio (UPC) evaluation, urea, and creatinine dosage together with the symmetric dimethylarginine dosage (SDMA), urinary tract ultrasonography and blood pressure monitoring, are the

The origin of Friel’s popularity in this country may be attributed to what many theatre directors and audiences considered to be a parallel political situation between post-colonial Ireland and the historical peripheral communities with a language other than Spanish: Catalonia, t

Abstract:

133 Background: Definitive chemoradiotherapy (CRT) is an established treatment option in localised esophageal cancer. While most patients are treated with cisplatin and fluorouracil, alternative chemotherapy regimens have been used. The combination of carboplatin and paclitaxel (CP) has been validated in a neoadjuvant CRT trial by the CROSS study. There has also been a phase II study (v. Meerten, ASCO 2010, e14508) showing efficacy and tolerability of this regimen in the definitive setting with radiation doses of 50.4Gy/28#. We report our experience using this strategy in two Irish centres. Me

Abstract:

e15078 Background: Translocation renal cell carcinomas (tRCCs) are a novel, rare and distinct clinicopathological entity. The term refers to RCCs with overexpression of transcription factor E3 (TFE3) due to translocation involving the Xp11 locus or less commonly with overexpression of transcription factor EB (TFEB) due to a t(6:11) translocation. In children it is estimated that these tumours account for 40% of RCCs but in adults this proportion is estimated to be 1-4%. These neoplasms are only recently recognised and outcome data are premature. We report 2 cases of tRCC in an Irish regional c

The aim of the study was to identify urinary biomarker for early detection of renal dysfunction in dogs. Paired blood and urine samples were analysed from dogs classified on the basis of International Renal Interest Society (IRIS) staging system. Serum biochemistry revealed a highly significant increase in blood urea nitrogen and creatinine levels in dogs with kidney disease. Urinalysis also revealed a highly significant increase in the level of urinary protein and urinary protein creatinine (UPC) ratio in dogs with kidney disease.

Abstract:

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects both dogs and cats, mainly elderly animals, due to tubulointerstitial inflammation associated with the increase of fibrosis through the excess deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) which leads to decrease glomerular filtration. Many different underlying renal diseases can affect the kidneys of dogs such as congenital or acquired in origin. Therefore, the main objective of this transversal study was to evaluate the epidemiology through clinical and laboratory evaluation of 225 client-owned dogs with CKD.Materials, Methods & Results: Comple

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a worldwide health problem with a poor prognosis. The exploration of possible medical intervention requires the presence of a suitable animal model. This work aims to induce a model of canine CKD with persistent uremia. Three dogs were used to develop canine CKD models with different techniques based on the remnant kidney model. Model (1) was subjected to excision of one renal pole of the right kidney. Model (2) was subjected to the excision of two renal poles of the right kidney. Model (3) underwent ligation of two renal arterial branches of the right kidney. A

Abstract:

The Irish writer Clare Boylan is something of a forgotten figure, despite enjoying significant literary success in her lifetime. Because of her untimely death, little critical work has been done on her fiction. Her blackly comic sensibility responds sensitively to characters situated in culturally specific environments, with particular attention paid to the vexed and contradictory position of women in their relationship to the natural world, and so this essay conducts a reading of her 1988 novel, Black Baby, using the insights of feminist new materialism and critical posthumanism, especially a

Ferroptosis plays a dual role in cancer, which is known to be affected to antitumor immune responses. However, the association between ferroptosis and antitumor immune responses is uncertain in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). In this work, 38 ferroptosis-related genes (FRGs) and 429 immune-related genes (IRGs) were identified as being differentially expressed between tumor and normal samples. Two risk score formulas consisting of seven FRGs and four IRGs, respectively, were developed by Lasso-penalized Cox regression and verified in the GSE13213 dataset.

Growing amounts of evidence have shown that the immune system plays a critical role in the biological processes of HCC such as progression, recurrence, and metastasis, and some have discussed using it as a weapon against a variety of cancers. However, the impact of immune-related genes (IRGs) on the prognosis of HCC remains unclear.

Williams writes that “curate” has become a fashionable code word among the aesthetically minded to describe a creative activity. Designers no longer simply sell clothes; they “curate” merchandise. Chefs no longer only make food; they also “curate” meals.
