Call for the 2015 Field Schools at Alberese and Rusellae

Academia Medicine, 2023

This case study focuses on the evaluation of a patient with both upper and lower gastrointestinal (GI) complaints in the outpatient setting, that is, how the evaluation skipped over several crucial diagnostic steps, and how this impacted the patient. Special care is given to the patient’s perspective, differential diagnosis, recommended laboratory testing, and their corresponding costs, taking on a patient-centered approach to the evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of illness. In this case, sufficient medication history was not obtained, causing the patient to undergo an expensive and unnecessary procedure. Acquiring this information is the cornerstone of an effective patient-physician relationship. Based on the history, a standardized diagnostic approach can be employed, given the likelihood of certain diagnoses. Often, the workup should start with less invasive and expensive tests. However, it is important to consider each isolated case, as a more aggressive approach may be indicated in certain instances. Special attention to communication between the patient and provider is key in ensuring that the patient understands what is happening in their medical care, which improves their communication with relevant information to the care provider, and through such understanding, our patients are better able to provide informed consent.

The Risk of Relatedness:Intersubjectivity Theory in Clinical Practice, 2008

We were celebrating. Celebrating the end of my girl friend´s midterm exams at the University of California. This was 1968, the height of the rock-love-peace-higher-consciousnessthrough-drugs movement.Like many of our contemporaries, we destained the numbing effect of alcohol and preferred what we then thought was the consciousness-raising effect of other drugs. Doors of Perception, Aldous Huxley wrote, the rock group The Doors took their name from that title. We had smoked marijuana and each taken one benzedrine tablet, an amphetamine. We got into an argument. My girl friend said she needed some air and went outside. She came back and laid down, complaining of a headache. Suddenly she went into convulsions that rocked her entire body in a wave-like motion. Her eyes crossed. I panicked, not knowing what I was seeing, except that something was very wrong. We had no telephone. I ran outside, knocking on neighbors´doors. No-one answered. I ran down the street looking for a pay phone. I wet my pants. I called an ambulance. I got a continuous busy signal. I called up the only person I knew who had a car. We drove her to the hospital. I held her in my arms. She groaned. I told the doctors about the convulsions and what we had taken. I was petrified. California State Troopers lingered outside. In those days,any drug meant jail. The doctor said:"Serves you-1-right". They pumped her stomach. They misdiagnosed her. They told me she would come out of the coma. It was just a matter of time. In shock,I let my friend drive me home. He said, "shé ll be fine". She wasn´t. I phoned her parents. They flew down in a private plane. She died twenty hours later of an aneurism. The father, a miltary man, said she was a victim of her times. The mother said she had had a history of headaches. For me, time stood still. I saw everything in reverse: what was light was dark, what was dark was light, like the negative of a photograph, no color. I felt like I was endlessly falling. I tried to continue my psychology studies, but in statistic seminars, the computers and the numbers left me bolting for the door, senselessness sucking at my feet like quicksand. My girlfriend lost her life just when her life was beginning to flower. I was never the same. For a while, I was near-crazy. A rip had been torn in the basic fabric of life. In retrospect I dealt with the incomprehensibility of death by trying to challenge it. When someone you love is ripped from you in a matter of seconds, you try to deal with what can´t be dealt with. The outrage. The utter helplessness. The irrevocability. No deals can be made. Your mind tries to wrap around it and slips from whatever isn´t there, from what is forever lost.

Incontro del Papa con il Collegio Cardinalizio, alla vigilia del Concistoro pubblico ordinario (Città del Vaticano, 23 Novembre 2007).

The aim of this research was to investigate the impact of parental involvement on the achievement score of elementary-level students. Parental involvement was the independent variable and the achievement scores of students were the dependent variable. Whereas, demographic variables like school status, SES, and parents' qualifications were also important. This study was comparative in nature and all elementary-level schools were taken as population. Elementary campuses of boys and girls were conveniently selected from the public sector in Faisalabad and taken as accessible population. From this accessible population, a sample of 376 students (307 male and 69 female) were drawn who have passed the elementary exams. Demographic sheets, copies of elementary result cards, and questionnaires were collected in order to find out the impact of parental involvement on the achievement scores of students at the elementary level. Descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation, frequency) was employed along with ANOVA, and t-test for data analysis. Keeping in view the results taken from Punjab Examination Commission, significant differences between the academic performance of the children belonging to the businessmen class and the job holders' class were noticed. Further, it was also determined from the dished-out results that the difference in academic achievement level is significant when more involvement of parents was there.

Pythagorean Harmonics and Fibonacci Series coupled in Riemann’s Zeta Function, Penrose-Hameroff Microtubules and an Acoustic Quantum Code, 2023

A relationship between Pythagorean numerology and the Fibonacci series of numbers emerges from Riemann's Zeta function and prime number distribution modelled on a Gaussian probability distribution of the integers. A relationship between a 33-tiered DNA/RNA sequencing mode interwoven with a 12-dimensional cosmology is indicated in the construction of a Maria matrix of the integer count. The importance of quantum 'sacred Pythagorean' geometry is emphasized in nature's efficiency of compressing information in the pentagonal symmetry of Penrose tiling, quasi-crystalline structures and the structure of acoustic-musical sound wave propagation then applied to biological systems. 1.

In Morocco, water resources are becoming increasingly scarce. In addition, they are facing several pressures, including increased demand and the negative effects of climate change. In response to this situation, the Moroccan government has increased its efforts in terms of intervention and policy, whether at the technical, legal and/or institutional level. Adopted in 2009, the latest national water saving and irrigation program envisages the conversion of traditional irrigation systems to localized irrigation. This work aims at evaluating the economic and water resources impacts of this program in the Tadla-Azilal sub-basin. The application of an integrated management model shows that after reconversion, the total agricultural gross margin in the area would increase by 2%. Changes will be made in crop rotation, including the replacement of certain crops by others that have become much more profitable. The application of specific water volumes at times of peak plant demand will result in increased yields of all crops. Finally, water consumption will be significantly reduced in all the studied units and groundwater will be less solicited than before.

Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2007

The first paper in this two-part miniseries on conceptual understanding discussed expert and novice conceptual knowledge, the multifaceted nature of conceptual understanding, and the cognitive skills essential for constructing it. This second article presents examples of instruments for the assessment and development of five facets of conceptual understanding that require competence in the cognitive skills of mindful memorization, integration, transfer, analogical reasoning, and system thinking. We also argue for the importance of explicitly assessing these facets of conceptual understanding as part of all biochemistry and molecular biology curricula so as to develop expert knowledge in our students.
