Abstract:
This chapter examines the uses of the unfulfilled in the writings of Charles W. Chesnutt and Sutton E. Griggs. While both authors sought politically progressive ends, Chesnutt and Griggs deployed different strategies to navigate the discourses of “pessimism” and “optimism” that marked turn-of-the-twentieth-century debates about the future of the race. Whereas Griggs believed that bringing about a better future for black Americans required representing this future in the present, Chesnutt staged its failure in order to realize a future that might not fail.

The importance of nutrition in sexual health cannot be overemphasized. Given the prevalence of obesity in America and its associated morbidities such as metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, sadly, sexual dysfunction is on the rise. Some—usually men —confronting a sexual problem may seek to consume commercial supplements or specific foods traditionally believed to improve sexual performance. However, the scientific evidence makes it clear that oysters, asparagus, or supplements are far less relevant than optimizing one's daily diet. Macronutrition impacts sexual func

With improved surveillance, diagnoses, and treatment of patients with cancer, an increased life expectancy, and specifically an increased number of ‘cancer cured’ patients, is noted. However, the long-term effects of the disease and treatment have a bearing on obtaining optimal physical, psychological, and cognitive functioning for cancer survivors. Pain impacts on all dimensions of quality of life and is one of the most distressing symptoms for patients. Patients often under-recognize pain and are unsure if optimum pain control is achievable.

Abstract:
Pain is a subjective experience and as such, communication regarding the experience is essential for the clinician to comprehensively assess and manage it. It is also the most feared complication of the most feared diagnosis. Effective communication creates an environment of trust, in which a patient is able to relate their experiences, in their entirety, including hopes and fears. This expression enables diagnosis of the aetiology, mechanism, and the myriad modulators of the pain by the clinician and is therapeutic in its own right as the patient makes meaning of the pain experience in the te

This chapter is a detailed review of generalizability theory (G theory), an extension of classical reliability theory originally devised by Cronbach.

This permits the researcher to examine the relative magnitude of different sources of error and the relation among them. The power of the method rests in its ability to use these estimates to devise optimal strategies for distributing observations. That is, G theory can be used to

In addition, cell migration and expression of gap junction proteins are up-regulated by KBs. Thus, beneficial effects of the ketogenic diet may depend on increased brain uptake of KBs to
