The Ritual Practice of Time
Calendars of Mesoamerican civilisations are subjected to what is categorised as “ritual practices of time”. This book is a comparative explication of rituals of time of four calendars: the Long Count calendar, the 260-day calendar, the 365-day calendar and the 52-years calendar. Building upon a comparative analytical model, the book contributes new theoretical insights about ritual practices and temporal philosophies. This comprehensive investigation analyses how ritual practices are represented and conceptualised in intellectual systems and societies. The temporal ritual practices are systematically analysed in relation to calendar organisation and structure, arithmetic, cosmogony and chronometry, spatial-temporality (cosmology), natural world, eschatology, sociology, politics, and ontology. It is argued that the 260-day calendar has a particular symbolic importance in Mesoamerican temporal philosophies and practices.
Architectural B-cell Organization in Skeletal Muscle Identifies Subtypes of Dermatomyositis
Abstract: Objective: To study the B-cell content, organization, and existence of distinct B-cell subpopulations in relation to the expression of type 1 interferon signature related genes in dermatomyositis (DM). Methods: Evaluation of skeletal muscle biopsies from patients with adult DM (aDM) and juvenile DM (jDM) by histology, immunohistochemistry, electron microscopy, and quantitative reverse-transcription PCR. Results: We defined 3 aDM subgroups--classic (containing occasional B cells without clusters), B-cell-rich, and follicle-like aDM--further elucidating IM B-lymphocyte maturation and immunity. The quantity of B cells and formation of ectopic lymphoid structures in a subset of patient...
Developmental Neuropathology
A definitive, clinically oriented guide to the pathology of genetics of developmental neuropathology Developmental neuropathology relates to the wide range of disorders affecting the developing brain or pre- and post-natal life, with emphasis on the genetic and molecular mechanisms involved. This book provides a practical guide to diagnosing and understanding these disorders affecting this vulnerable population and potentially stimulates further advances in this exciting area. It also addresses the controversies in inflicted head injury in infants. The fourth major title to be approved by the International Society of Neuropathology (ISN), Developmental Neuropathology offers in-depth chapter ...
Das kortesische Mexiko
Die Quellen über die Eroberung Mexikos stellen zuerst die Interessen ihrer Autoren dar und erfordern daher eine ethnographische und militärisch-politische Kritik. Der Eroberungsprozeß ist die Anfangsphase des Kulturwandels. Der Kulturwandel wird meist auf den Druck der Spanier und besonders der Kirche zurückgeführt. Die Kolonialkultur wurde aber von den Mesoamerikanern durch Auswahl bei der Übernahme nach ihrem Modus gesteuert entwickelt. Die untergehende mesoamerikanische Tradition erwies sich durch Anwendung ihrer Prinzipien und schnelle Lernfähigkeit als sehr dynamisch. Die dortige Kolonialkultur ist daher als epimesoamerikanisch zu bezeichnen.
Whole-Genome Sequencing Identified New Structural Variations in the DMD Gene that Cause Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy in Two Girls
Abstract: Dystrophinopathies are the most common muscle diseases, especially in men. In women, on the other hand, a manifestation of Duchenne muscular dystrophy is rare due to X-chromosomal inheritance. We present two young girls with severe muscle weakness, muscular dystrophies, and creatine kinase (CK) levels exceeding 10,000 U/L. In the skeletal muscle tissues, dystrophin staining reaction showed mosaicism. The almost entirely skewed X-inactivation in both cases supported the possibility of a dystrophinopathy. Despite standard molecular diagnostics (including multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) and next generation sequencing (NGS) gene panel sequencing), the genetic ca...
