Case 30-2007 — NEJM

Most affected patients present at birth with vesicles, bullae, and denuded skin and mucous membranes. Incontinentia pigmenti is a very rare, X-linked dominant vesiculobullous disorder associated with mutations in the gene encoding the NEMO ... Skin biopsy is required for a definitive diagnosis. In summary, the morphologic characteristics of the skin lesions in this newborn are consistent with either neonatal HSV infection or neonatal Langerhans'-cell histiocytosis. [more...]

Organ Eye

And while the drone is an underlying structure for "TEMA #1", Minit's oscillating electronics scratch livid patterns in the sidelines, scraping away like bolts of light underneath your eyelids, or etched bursts of denuded filmstock in the hand-crafted films of Stan Brakhage. The quartet work in loosely episodic fashion: "TEMA #1" moves from tentative beginnings to an engorged rush of fizzling noise at about the fourteen minute mark, which recedes into insectile near-silence. This may imply a tension-release structure that's not exactly under-represented in the field of modern improvised [more...]

Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

The alveolar epithelial type II cell is the progenitor for reepithelialization of a denuded alveolar epithelium. Type II cells proliferate to cover the denuded basement membrane and then differentiate into type I cells, restoring the normal alveolar architecture and increasing the fluid-transport capacity of the alveolar epithelium. This proliferation is controlled by epithelial growth factors, including keratinocyte and hepatocyte growth factors. 25 The mechanisms underlying the resolution of the inflammatory-cell infiltrate and fibrosis are unclear. Apoptosis (programmed cell death) is [more...]

Leadership Factors

Lying at uncomfortable angles on hard boards, breathing the suffocating air just under the vault, he suffered from inflamed eyes and skin irritation from the plaster dust. For the next four years, he literally sweated in physical distress as he worked – but look at what he produced! There is a genuine cost and expense involved in accomplishing that which is worthwhile and a real benefit and pleasure. It has to be settled in the mind, first of all, if there is going to be anything constructed of real worth and significance in life and work. Then it is sure to make severe demands and require [more...]

Obayashi - Lubitsch - Godard - Murnau - Lang - Sirk: MoC January + ...

The most overlooked late-Murnau film has been given new life in high-definition, and the results are stunning. It seems to me impossible from here on out to relegate City Girl to "minor" status; it could very well come down to the Blu-ray format's bringing us as close to celluloid as we're ever likely to experience in a home setting (on a TV/display-esque device) that the strengths even of the Fox-imposed sequences alone have been made freshly and powerfully evident. (Yes, Blu-ray might well be the site of the first truce between the projection purists and the home-theater'acs.) To speak [more...]

“Let's Talk About Him/Hymn” – a response to John Barton's Hymn by ...

The definition of a polygon is a plane figure with many sides and angles, a geometric description, perhaps, of a human. This poem again displays John’s marked use of line breaks, for instance “guessing afterwards at wrecks we are // sure must lie deeper still”. But beyond the word play and light humour there is a final sense of hope and possibility present in this poem, the “you & I” incorporating all the past, and all the “possible trajectories of the limitless”. It is an uplifting ending, set in a different unnamed town, on the breakwater, where the speaker asks a companion to [more...]

Nursing - Keperawatan - ASKEP: Preoperative Skin Preparation: A ...

In this same monograph, the FDA further defines "patient preoperative skin preparations" as a fast-acting, broad-spectrum, persistent antiseptic-containing preparation that significantly reduces the number of microorganisms on intact skin.4 An evolution of antiseptics has influenced perioperative practices. Historically, antiseptic agents progressed from the era of alcohol and carbolic acid to hexachlorophene (HCP) and parachlorometaxylenol (PCMX), then povidone iodine (PVP-I), followed by chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) agents.5 Each agent possesses advantages and cautions, requiring knowledge [more...]

Q&A with James Twining Author of The Geneva Deception

Last week, Harper Collins released The Geneva Deception, James Twining's fourth installation in the Tom Kirk art theft series. Inspired by the events chronicled in Peter Watson's Medici Conspiracy, Twining's novel is a worthy attempt to utilize thrilling fiction to raise greater awareness of the scope and magnitude of the illicit arts and antiquities trade. Recently, I had the opportunity to read The Geneva Deception and ask the author some questions about his latest work. Certainly, as an art crime researcher I am always skeptical of art theft fiction and how the genre may or may not [more...]

I'm a Halloweenie

And I must say that, in addition to the stubble which is apparently left behind in the process -- hence the painful embrace -- the sight of one's denuded chest and abdomen is jarring at best. I can't remember when I last saw myself looking quite so Baby's Bottomly, although it must have been around the same time that I began to compulsively shave the horrifying, solitary chest hairs growing around my nipples, a biological turn of events so unexpected and overwhelming that it should come as no surprise that I lost track of the pilatory processes elsewhere on my body. And while it has been said [more...]

EasyRSS: Clipmarks | Live Clips

Globally, small producers endure economic policies that pit them against the whims of consumers and profit-hoarding transnational corporations including Monsanto. Last week the US-based Monsanto secured a 20 per cent minority interest in Western Australias InterGrain and launched an advocacy and "education" campaign to promote the benefits of genetic modification to consumers. This move will continue Australias integration into global circuits of food capital at the expense of small farmers, and escalate our ecological debt. It is time for consumers, producers and politicians to explore the [more...]
