Walk on Water
Described by one surgeon as “soul-crushing, diamond-making stress,” surgery on congenital heart defects is arguably the most difficult of all surgical specialties. Drawing back the hospital curtain for a unique and captivating look at the extraordinary skill and dangerous politics of critical surgery in a pediatric heart center, Michael Ruhlman focuses on the world-renowned Cleveland Clinic, where a team of medical specialists—led by idiosyncratic virtuoso Dr. Roger Mee—work on the edge of disaster on a daily basis. Walk on Water offers a rare and dramatic glimpse into a world where the health of innocent children and the hopes of white-knuckled families rest in the hands of all-too-human doctors.
ICGG 2022 - Proceedings of the 20th International Conference on Geometry and Graphics
This book covers recent achievements on the ever-expanding field of Geometry and Graphics on both analogical and digital fronts, from theoretical investigations to a broad range of applications, new teaching methodologies, and historical aspects. It is from 20th International Conference on Geometry and Graphics (ICGG2022), a series of conference that started in 1978 and promoted by International Society for Geometry and Graphics, which aims to foster international collaboration and stimulate the scientific research and teaching innovations in the multidisciplinary field. The contents of the book are organized in: Theoretical Geometry and Graphics; Applied Geometry and Graphics; Engineering Computer Graphics; Graphics Education; Geometry and Graphics in History, and are intent for the academics, researchers, and professionals in architecture, engineering, industrial design, mathematics, and arts.
The Impact of Genetically Engineered Crops on Farm Sustainability in the United States
Since genetically engineered (GE) crops were introduced in 1996, their use in the United States has grown rapidly, accounting for 80-90 percent of soybean, corn, and cotton acreage in 2009. To date, crops with traits that provide resistance to some herbicides and to specific insect pests have benefited adopting farmers by reducing crop losses to insect damage, by increasing flexibility in time management, and by facilitating the use of more environmentally friendly pesticides and tillage practices. However, excessive reliance on a single technology combined with a lack of diverse farming practices could undermine the economic and environmental gains from these GE crops. Other challenges coul...
Crop Ferality and Volunteerism
At a time when much of humanity is already but one failed harvest removed from starvation, we cannot afford to ignore any potential danger to food security, especially when that danger poses a threat to rice, the staff of life for so much of the world. Crop Ferality and Volunteerism brings together research pioneers from various disciplines
Nrf2 and its Modulation in Inflammation
Nrf2, a transcription factor that mediates transcriptional responses to oxidative and xenobiotic stresses, plays a central role in cellular protection against internal or external toxins. Defects in Nrf2 and the relevant regulatory pathways are associated with a number of pathologies including inflammation, respiratory diseases, cardiovascular dysfunctions, metabolic syndrome and diabetes, neurodegeneration, and cancer. This book comprehensively reviews the up-to-date discoveries for the roles of Nrf2 in several human diseases in the context of inflammation. In particular, the molecular mechanisms that mediate the functions of Nrf2 and its interacting network in inflammation and pathogenesis are explicated. In addition, the research and therapeutic applications of Nrf2-targeting compounds in different diseases were summarized. This book is expected to be a valuable reference for worldwide researchers conducting both mechanistic and therapeutic studies of Nrf2 and relevant factors.
