Increasing evidence implicates lymphocytes in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) pathogenesis. Rats deficient T-lymphocytes show increased propensity to develop PAH but when injected with endothelial progenitor cells are protected from (a mechanism dependent on natural killer (NK) cells). A decreased quantity of circulating cytotoxic CD8+ and NK now reported patients; however, the effect lymphocyte depletion disease outcome is unknown.This prospective study analysed profile plasma brain...
Abstract: In all, 88 patients with haematological malignancies requiring Hickman catheters for intensive chemotherapy were randomized to receive either one single bolus intravenous injection of teicoplanin, 400 mg, or no teicoplanin immediately before insertion a double‐lumen catheter. Lower incidences catheter‐related Gram‐positive sepsis recorded in receiving prophylactic teicoplanin; exit site infection, tunnel infection and septicaemia all reduced. The benefit was observed particularly...
In this paper, we extend Bakhtin's ethical philosophical ideas to education and introduce a dialogic authorial agency espoused approach. We then consider approach in opposition the mainstream technological approach, while focusing our contrasting analysis on student’s critical dialogue. argue that assumes "skills" or "knowledge" are garnered pursuit of preset curricular endpoints (i.e., standards). Since goals divorced from students’ personal goals, values, interests, they incompatible...
Eighty-eight patients with haematological malignancies requiring Hickman catheters for intensive chemotherapy were randomized to receive either one single bolus intravenous injection of teicoplanin or no immediately before insertion a double lumen catheter. There lower incidences catheterrelated Gram-positive sepsis in receiving prophylactic teicoplanin. less exit site infections, tunnel infections and catheter-related septicaemia. The benefit was observed especially among who already...
Context What Varenne and McDermott described as “conventional schooling” is characterized by underlying values of competition credentialism implicit in an unconscious, cultural framework for U.S. institutional schooling. Schools that define themselves opposition to this heritage consider innovative schools tend explicitly reject conventional practice favor a collaborative “free-choice learning environment.” Focus Study We analyze the institution schooling through interpretive lens students...
In this dialogic research, we explore the question of whether ChatGPT4 has a self or not. If it does, what kind might have? does not, why not? At heart inquiry is Eugene Matusov’s (the first author’s) “dialogue” with ChatGPT4; data that “with our hearts and minds.” inquiry, minds were concerned diverse meanings to participants rather than “how things really are” their evidence. This positionality also framed process at its beginning after multiple failed attempts manipulations interrogate...
S ummary Febrile neutropenic patients were randomized to receive ceftazidime and ciprofloxacin with the addition of teicoplanin in cases clinical suspicion a Hickman line‐associated infection. At 48 h both bacteriological analyses made. Patients categorized as: success, improvement or stability condition: failure, if there was deterioration condition; non‐evaluable, protocol violation death due other causes. A total 86 have completed study so far: 43 group. Teicoplanin added mono‐therapy 12...

Managerialism has changed the nature of curriculum and imposed upon us new conceptions teacher teaching. In this paper a brief outline critique it are provided its reductionist effects noted. Against managerialism conception school as an educational community is developed, based on Oakeshott's work. From within planned or utopian change mounted concept incremental outlined. At same time autonomy elaborated which in contrast to rational but restores voluntaristic role teachers.
10 lymphoma patients given a total of 26 courses intravenous continuous infusion recombinant interleukin-2 (rIL-2) alone without lymphokine-activated killer cells were analysed retrospectively for the frequency and pattern bacterial infections associated with immunotherapy. 4 episodes septicaemia 7 soft tissue resulted from rIL-2 infusion. Although there was no death due to infection, all these clinically significant, needing systemic antibiotic therapy resulting in prolonged...
This research focuses on the adaptation strategies of students from an innovative elementary school run as a community learners who have been involuntarily 'thrown into' competitive, credentialism‐based high schools. We apply anthropologist John Ogbu's comparative historico‐ecological framework 'minority' to graduates in their new contexts. The our study, whom we refer 'learning‐loving minority', were generally academically successful conventional schools, yet expressed distinctly ambivalent...
Through discussions in class meetings of “concrete situations” experienced by students their lived experience and out the classroom, educators have been encouraged to guide understand how bullying applies lives, learn degree which is present or absent relationships with peers (Olweus, 1993). In observations interviews about at a private, progressive U.S. middle school, student teacher discourses response students’ interpersonal dynamics are found exist within separate, parallel universes....
S ummary With the extensive use of Hickman catheters in patients requiring cytotoxic chemotherapy there is now a resurgence Gram‐positive septicaemia among these during neutropenic periods. We are currently running prospective randomized study prophylactic teicoplanin insertion to determine if it reduces incidence septicaemia. A total 44 have completed (23 group and 21 control group). The diagnoses were: acute myelogenous leukaemia (13). non‐Hodg‐kin'slymphoma (16). Hodgkin's disease (11),...
