Survey of Infection Control Precautions for Patients with Severe Combined Immune DeficiencyAbstractSevere combined immune deficiency (SCID) is caused by an array of genetic disorders resulting in a diminished adaptive immune system due to impaired T lymphocytes. In these patients, active infection at the time of hematopoietic transplantation has been shown to increase morbidity and mortality. To prevent transmission of infections in SCID patients, standardized infection control precautions should...

Physiology of cerebrospinal fluid circulationPurpose of review This article describes the physiology of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). We review current evidence and new concepts relating to CSF physiology with respect to CSF secretion, circulation and resorption and we highlight key pathophysiological associations including the relationship between CSF and intracranial pressure. Recent findings CSF secretion occurs primarily via the choroid plexus. Various transport mechanisms facilitate CSF secretion...

In-vivo techniques for determining nephron numberPurpose of review Many studies have suggested low nephron endowment at birth contributes to the risk of developing hypertension and chronic kidney disease (CKD) later in life. Loss of nephrons with age and disease is largely a subclinical process. New technologies are needed to count nephrons as glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is a poor surrogate for nephron number. Recent findings Cortical volume, glomerular density, and percent globally sclerotic...
A Distorted Body Schema and Susceptibility to Experience Anomalous Somatosensory Sensations in Fibromyalgia SyndromeObjectives: Evidence suggests there to be an association between chronic pain and disruption of the body schema. We tested the hypothesis in fibromyalgia syndrome. Methods: We investigated distinct perceptual aspects of the body schema both in a sample of patients with FMS and in healthy controls. Performances on the left/right judgment task were measured; tactile acuity was assessed...

Skeletal Changes Associated with OsteoarthritisAbstractOsteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disorder in which progressive articular cartilage loss occurs alongside pathological changes in subchondral bone and other joint tissues. The pathophysiological role of bone in OA has been a point of interest for many years and has resurfaced again in recent years as a potential target for new treatments. Articular cartilage and subchondral bone together form the osteochondral unit. Its homeostasis...

Contextualism in Normative Political Theory and the Problem of Critical DistanceAbstractPolitical theory is contextualist when factual claims about context are part of the justification of normative political judgments. There are different kinds of contextualism depending on whether context is relevant for the formulation and justification of political principles (methodological contextualism), whether principles themselves are contextually specific (theoretical contextualism), or whether context...

Mimicking nature-made beta cells: recent advances towards stem cell-derived isletsPurpose of review Stem cell-derived islets are likely to be useful as a future treatment for diabetes. However, the field has been limited in the ability to generate β-like cells with both phenotypic maturation and functional glucose-stimulated insulin secretion that is similar to primary human islets. The field must also establish a reliable method of delivering the cells to patients while promoting rapid in-vivo engraftment...

At the zero degree / Below the minimum: Wage as sign in Israel's split labor marketAbstractMarx conceived of the reproduction of labor-power as a circuit in which the wage must suffice to purchase the commodities necessary to meet the worker's "so-called necessary requirements," which are "products of history." In this article, I argue that, through ethnographic investigation of the wage as a sign of these requirements, we can arrive at a wealth of knowledge about how the wage helps to construct...
