The prior issue of Krisis (42:1) published Critical Naturalism: A Manifesto, with the aim to instigate a debate issues raised in this manifesto – necessary re-thinking role (and concept) nature critical theory relation questions ecology, health, and inequality. Since considers itself place for philosophical debates that take contemporary struggles as starting point, it issued an open call solic...

different medicinal plants have been used in animal and poultry nutrition in last decade. it seems that there are some potential to these medicinal plants to replace with common antibiotics. licorice root (glycyrrhiza glabra) is a medicinal plant that extensively was used in different studies. in the present study, the effect of dietary addition of licorice root on performance and blood energy ...

background: premature infants are among high-risk groups in community who need to be hospitalized at intensive care units for survival and receiving basic or special care. hospitalization at neonatal intensive care units (nicus) unsettles the family and leads to the separation of parents from their infants. this study aimed to determine the effects of maternal attachment behaviors on the behavi...

cortical spreading depression (csd) are associated with dramatic failure of brain ion homeostasis, efflux of excitatory amino acids from nerve cells, increased energy metabolism and changes in cerebral blood flow. there is strong clinical and experimental evidence to suggest that csd is involved in the mechanism of migraine, stroke, subarachnoid hemorrhage and traumatic brain injury. therefore,...

T cell-independent antibody responses develop rapidly, within 3 to 4 days, and are critical for preventing blood-borne pathogens from evolving into life-threatening infections. The interaction of BAFF, also known as BLyS, with its receptors BAFFR and TACI on B cells is critical for B cell homeostasis and function. Using a synthetic polysaccharide antigen, it has previously been shown that TACI ...

The maturation of inhibitory circuits in juvenile visual cortex triggers a critical period in the development of the visual system. Although several manipulations of inhibition can alter the timing of the critical period, none have demonstrated the creation of a new critical period in adulthood. We developed a transplantation method to reactivate critical period plasticity in the adult visual c...

determining the responses of floating structures at sea are the most important concerns in shipbuilding industry. in physical and dynamical principles a ship can be analyzed as a free elastic beam floating in sea without any supports. the analysis of corresponding dynamic equations are difficult and time- consuming, thus investigation on the behavior of floating structures can be done numerical...
