This paper intends to investigate the process of translating through shedding light on relative thinking within cognitive stylistics perspective. In a method seeing how understand world and that by mental representation language is conceived. Mental representations which people communicate established they employ, involve their knowledge, previous experience. Having analyzed translations Hawkin...

To understand basic principles of living organisms one has to know many different properties of all cellular components, their mutual interactions but also their amounts and spatial organization. Live-cell imaging is one possible approach to obtain such data. To get multiple snapshots of a cellular process, the imaging approach has to be gentle enough to not disrupt basic functions of the cell ...

Dental caries continues to be a common chronic disease among various population groups. Patient care can be improved with detection at the earliest stage. However, current techniques do not have sufficient sensitivity and specificity. We discuss 2 new methods - optical coherence tomography (OCT) and polarized Raman spectroscopy (PRS) - that are potentially useful for early caries detection and ...

The brain in sepsis Intensive care clinicians will be familiar with the acute brain syndrome observed in patients with sepsis, variously described as “septic encephalopathy” or “sepsis-associated brain dysfunction”.1 Less well appreciated are the long-term morbidity and mortality associated with this condition. Enduring, newonset, moderate-to-severe cognitive impairment is seen in at least 10% ...

L ight in the blue region of the spectrum [blue light (BL), 400– 480 nm] is an ubiquitous environmental signal. BL can penetrate marine water to a depth greater than all other wavelengths, up to the limits of the photic zone ( 1,500 m depth) and may be linked to the evolution of photosynthesis (1). BL is also potentially dangerous because it is readily absorbed by intracellular photosensitizers...

The major limitation of the long term success of percutaneous coronary interventions is the development of restenosis, which occurs in 30–50% of patients within six months. 2 Restenosis is the result of a complex pathophysiological process in the arterial wall in response to balloon dilatation or stent insertion. For many years the hallmark of this response to injury was considered to be the de...
