Sepsis is a common cause of death in infants and children. Haemostatic abnormalities have been reported in such patients. There is scant information on the nature and frequency of these abnormalities in children especially from India. Our aim was to evaluate the nature and frequency of haematological and haemostatic abnormalities in children with sepsis. Fifty children between 1-10 years of age...

Distinguishing between the mathematical followers of Archimedes, notably Galileo, and the Aristotelians of the late sixteenth century, William R. Shea asserted that ‘[m]athematicians, under the guidance of Euclid and Archimedes, viewed the world in terms of geometric shapes which obeyed mathematically expressible laws’. In my judgement, Shea’s view should be accepted, even though it was not onl...

We review recent measurements of high transverse momentum (high pT ) hadron production in nuclear collisions by the STAR Collaboration at RHIC. The previously observed suppression in central Au+Au collisions has been extended to much higher pT . New measurements from d+Au collisions are presented which help disentangle the mechanisms responsible for the suppression. Inclusive single hadron spec...

BACKGROUND Scandinavian physiotherapists (PT) treat patients with schizophrenia and schizophrenia spectrum disorder, mainly because of the latter's bodily difficulties. One commonly used method is Basic Body Awareness Therapy (BBAT), targeting the difficulties with sensory motor dysfunction and disembodiment. The aim of the study is to describe the physiotherapist's experiences of using BBAT fo...
