Volluz, Corbin T. "Cry Redemption: The Plan of Redemption as Taught in the Book of Mormon." Journal of Book of Mormon Studies (1992-2007) 3, no. 1 (April 1, 1994): 148–69. http://dx.doi.org/10.2307/44758659.
Abstract:
Abstract According to the Book of Mormon, men must obey the commandments of God in order to gain eternal life. And yet, men are incapable of yielding full obedience to God, due to die carnal nature they inherit from the fallen Adam and Eve. To overcome this carnal nature, God has provided a way, through the atonement of his Son, whereby men may be redeemed from the carnal state to a spiritual state. If men are to be redeemed, they must call upon the Lord in the spirit of true humility, faith, and repentance. If they do so, God will redeem them by the power of the Holy Ghost. Frequently associated with the redemption process is a covenant of obedience.

Abstract:
AbstractThe late 19th century saw the spread of anti-homosexual criminal laws to British colonies. The iconic example was the Indian Penal Code of 1860, with its prohibition of ‘carnal intercourse against the order of nature,’ a rewriting of the anti-Catholic ‘buggery’ law of 1534. The language of 377 travelled around the British colonial world. France and certain other parts of Europe had decriminalized homosexual acts a century earlier, so the colonial powers of Europe spoke with different voices. Modern decriminalization is largely the product of the human rights era - sixty years since the Charter of the United Nations and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Ludwikowska, Joanna. "Uncovering the Secret: Medieval Women, Magic and the Other." Studia Anglica Posnaniensia 49, no. 2 (January 29, 2015): 83–103. http://dx.doi.org/10.2478/stap-2014-0009.
Abstract:
Abstract For medieval audiences women occupied a specific, designated cultural area which, while they could freely form it according to their will and nature, was in fact imaginary and immaterial. Women in social, legal, and religious contexts were mostly counted among the receptive, inactive, and non-ruling groups. On both levels, there was a group of features universally defining all women: the strong, virtuous and independent model Aquinas lamented was replaced in real life by the sinful, carnal and weak stereotype, and the erotic, emotional, mysterious, and often wild type present predominantly in literature. Indeed, women were a source of scientific, theological, and cultural fascination because of their uncanny and complex nature, producing both fear and desire of the source and nature of the unattainable and inaccessible femininity. In social contexts, however, the enchantress seems to lose that veil of allure and, instead, is forced to re-define her identity by suppressing, denying, or losing her supernatural features. With the example of Saint Agnes from the South English Legendary Life of Saint Agnes, and Melior from Partonope of Blois (ca. 1450), the article will explore how medieval texts dealt with the complex and unruly female supernatural, and how its neutralization and subduing fitted into the moral, scientific, and cultural norms of medieval society.

Abstract:
The work Le sei giornate by Pietro of Arezzo (1492-1556) is notable for its intricate, ambiguous, and challenging nature, particularly in relation to its exploration of sexuality. , which involves the explicit depiction of bodies as carnal and forbidden, representing a deviation from conventional norms. Le sei giornate (also known as Ragionamenti; or, Dialogue of Nanna and Antonia under a Fig Tree in Rome) exalts licentiousness from the unique perspective of a woman who embodies the roles of nun, wife, and courtesan. This article examines the portrayal of the courtesan in Aretino’s text, tracing the influences—from Pasquin to Rabelais—that propelled this relatively underappreciated author into the realm of the notoriety. Through an exploration of its connection with the public square and its association with the carnivalesque, this study delves into the historical backdrop of 16th-century Italy.

M, Nandhini. "The Classification of Agatthinai in the Grammatical Books that deals with Love-Genre." International Research Journal of Tamil 4, S-13 (November 21, 2022): 119–25. http://dx.doi.org/10.34256/irjt224s1317.
Abstract:
It is a great principle of the ancient Tamils that the way of life and culture of the people will depend on the nature of the land on which they live. In that sense, the activities corresponding to the respective land are referred to as "discipline" or "Thinai". There are generally two types of thinai, namely, domestic and public. The ego is the expression of the feelings of the heart. Accordingly, if we study Agathinai, the word Agathinai refers to the life of the people. This paper examines the tendency in tribal Tamil society to the transformation of intraocular pleasure into bliss and then into carnal pleasure in the dominant feudal society. This study will help those who seek to understand the domestic life of Tamils through grammar in the future to gain a proper understanding. Moreover, the study of grammar helps in identifying the Tamil community as a patrilineal society when the dominant mentality takes root in the society.

Słomka, Jan. "Wcielenie w teologii Marcelego z Ancyry." Vox Patrum 38 (December 31, 2000): 157–69. http://dx.doi.org/10.31743/vp.7237.
Abstract:
Marcellus perceives the incarnation of Jesus as the moment when not only does the Logos assume a human body, but a change also occurs in God himself. The change consists in the expansion of a monad into a triad. It is the second transformation already. The first one took place at the beginning of creation. It was then that the Logos passed from the State of being „in God" to being „with God". Marcellus underlines that neither the first nor the latter can be defined as generation. The term „generation refers only to Jesus' birth from Mary. The changes undergone by God, first at creation, then at the incarnation, are not of permanent nature. On the contrary, they are temporary and reversible. Upon completing the history of the world, God will return to the monadic State. The incarnation will also come to an end. Marcellus presents the incarnation as temporary and „external" in relation to the Logos. When the „carnal economy" is completed, the Logos is to return to His original State of resting „in God".

Bore, Inger-Lise Kalviknes, Anne Graefer, and Allaina Kilby. "This Pussy Grabs back: Humour, Digital Affects and Women’s Protest." Open Cultural Studies 1, no. 1 (January 1, 2018): 529–40. http://dx.doi.org/10.1515/culture-2017-0050.
Abstract:
Abstract The “affective” turn has enabled many scholars to theorise media representations not only as texts that can be distantly decoded but also as a matter of emotional attachments, intensities of feelings, synesthetic sensations, and embodied experiences. Yet, what has been less often theorized is how this affective meaningmaking is (re)shaped by the dynamic and interactive nature of social networking systems such as Facebook or Twitter. How do images and the affective qualities that “stick” to them, travel and transform through user engagement where “users grab images and technologies by which they are grabbed in return” (Paasonen, Carnal Resonance 178; Senft 2008). We aim to explore this question further through examples of humorous images from the January 2017 Women’s March, considered within the digital contexts of Facebook and Twitter. Social movement scholars argue that emotional engagement can be a powerful and positive motivating factor in getting people involved in political life, and we here suggest that these humorous images can move the reader in new critical directions, encouraging them to challenge systems of inequality and oppression in contemporary society.

Volkova, A. A. "The Idea of the Integrity of Human Nature in the Works of Cyril of Turov in the Context of the Byzantine Patristic Tradition." History of Philosophy 28, no. 2 (2023): 21–35. http://dx.doi.org/10.21146/2074-5869-2023-28-2-21-35.
Abstract:
The article is devoted to the analysis of the anthropological views of Cyril of Turov on the relationship of spiritual and bodily principles in human nature. In connection with this goal, a review of general anthropological ideas about human nature, presented in Eastern Christian patristic thought, is undertaken in order to identify possible continuity in the works of the ancient Russian author. The tradition of anthropological dualism characteristic of Byzantine patristic thought is shown. A detailed reflection of the relationship between the spiritual and the carnal in human nature is considered on the material of such early works by Cyril of Turov as “A word about the monasticism”, “The Legend of the Chernorizsky rank”, and later – “The Parable of the Soul and Body”, “The Word about the Relaxed”. As a result of the research, the author of the article concludes that, firstly, physicality in the anthropology of the ancient Russian author acts as a necessary outer shell for the soul, a form that is not sinful in isolation from spiritual movements, but acts as a receptacle of vice in connection with the free will of a person who has decided to live his life in satisfying earthly temptations and animals needs. Secondly, sin is an exclusively spiritual burden and spiritual responsibility. And, finally, thirdly, according to Cyril of Turov, soul and body are not opposed within a human being, but act as necessary, equally significant parts of the indivisible, undifferentiated integrity of the perfect creation of the Lord – man.

Terka, Mariusz. "Man’s animality in the light of st. Augustine’s philosophical works." Vox Patrum 67 (December 16, 2018): 631–52. http://dx.doi.org/10.31743/vp.3419.
Abstract:
As a corporeal being, man is part of the material world, he lives and is subject to processes similar to those which prevail in the world of animals and exceeds them only owing to the fact that he possesses a rational soul. Thus, although a body makes animality possible for a man to exist and function, its nature, meaning man’s similarity to animals, is defined mainly by the relationship between the soul and body. Since animals do not have minds, animality understood on the ontological level is something man and animals share in common. St. Augustine describes this as experiencing bodily sensations by the sensual being, which, because of their turning towards material things, lives in the world of bodily sensations and finds their place in it. Therefore, this is irrational delectation in bodily matters. This animality in humans is also considered as a possible lifestyle, which means it is an object of the will’s choice and assumes the form of the process of becoming similar to animals in the moral sense. It consists in the fact that man, who is created in the image and likeness of God, being turned to Him by nature, yet due to the sin of pride turns away from Him and from contemplation of eternal truths, and because of covetousness goes towards the carnal world. Being pleased with worldly possessions and directing his desires towards them, man becomes accustomed to existing among corporeal matters, forgetting about God and his own nature, and aspires to sensual pleasures. Therefore, the consequence of turning away from the Creator and lustfully turning to worldly possessions is blindness that leads him or her into slavery of corporeality and idolatry.

Abstract:
В данной статье затрагивается одна из главнейших проблем, с которой сопряжена брачная жизнь человека. Автор подробно освещает аспекты учения Древней Церкви о святости брака и деторождения, особое внимание уделяет описанию механизма действия похоти на человеческое естество, и приходит к выводу, что противостоять похоти в браке возможно лишь с благодатной помощью Божией, научающей истинному воздержанию, основанному на господстве в душе нравственного начала. This article touchers on one of the main problems with which married life of a person is associated. The author covers in detail the aspects of the teaching of the Ancient Church on the holiness of marriage and childbearing, pays special attention to the description of the mechanism of the lust impact on the human nature, and comes to the conclusion that it is possible to resist lust in marriage only with the gracious help of God, which teaches the true abstinence based on the dominance of the moral beginning in the human soul.

Sadkowska-Fidala, Agata. "L’absence qui devient présence : la vie et l’Idée dans Sixtine de Remy de Gourmont." Quêtes littéraires, no. 1 (December 30, 2011): 32–38. http://dx.doi.org/10.31743/ql.4644.
Abstract:
Sixtine by Remy de Gourmont marks the refusal of nature and tangible reality and the choice of imagination to the detriment of reality. Its principal character, Hubert d’Entragues is a faithful disciple of idealism of symbolism. Since he chooses to think rather that to live, it is not surprising that the plot of the novel is almost nonexistent. The plot develops around of d’Entragues’ desire to win the beautiful Sixtine, which is in itself condemned to failure since he is doing nothing to reach her and refuses to take any effort. The woman, who could have served as the principal impulse of the plot, is practically inexistent in this story (though it is a passionate story) and is replaced by the ideal woman: the story is doubled by the second story, e.g. a novel written by the character which is a transposition of his “cerebral” relation with Sixtine and a realisation of presence of the latter. Art replaces life and life does not exist in itself. It is shaped by thought. But the chosen absence of any facts of life is fruitful: it gives birth to a novel. It is a story of a prisoner in love with the statute of the Virgin which he sees while taking a daily walk. In this novel the carnal accomplishment is not necessary in order for a true and sincere passion to develop and the satisfaction of desire may destroy the dream and the ideal.

Belyaletdinov, Roman. "Biocultural theory and the problem of human editing." Chelovek 32, no. 6 (2021): 29. http://dx.doi.org/10.31857/s023620070018006-3.
Abstract:
The transition from an irregular understanding of nature as a given to the regulatory concepts of human development is one of the central philosophical and socio-humanitarian issues in the development of not only biotechnologies, but also society as a whole. In the theory of philosophy of biomedicine, the discussion is structured as the positioning of various problematic approaches, modeled using the principles of bioethics and philosophical ethics, taking into account the actual experience of the application and social perception of biomedical technologies. The status of problematic approaches is determined not only by philosophical ethics, but also by the willingness of society to accept something new as its own future. At the same time, accepting the future is impossible without rooting the future in the past - the beliefs and expectations that legitimize the future. The correlation of such concepts as the authentic autonomy of J. Habermas and the expansion of utilitarianism into the problems of editing the human genome, the conflict associated with challenges requiring collective moral action, and the rigidity of traditional moral mechanisms lead to the search for such a sociobiological language that would be formed from competitively coexisting old, traditional, and new, bioengineering, concepts of human development. The idea of biocultural theory as a form of connection between culture and biological foundation is associated with the work of A. Buchanan and R. Powell, who propose a systemic definition of biocultural theory as a mutual biological and cultural transformation of a person. Biocultural theory is aimed at shaping such a philosophical horizon, where the body, not only carnal, such as organs, but also personal - the awareness of its own bioidentity, becomes open and understandable due to the expansion of the connection between biology and culture, but at the same time acquires problems that becomes the subject of philosophy and ethics, since now a person, comprehended as a body, receives a variability that is no longer associated exclusively with culture. The goal of the article is to show that editing a person is not so much a traditionally understood risk as a transformation of the understanding of the cultural and biological conditions for the formation of his bioidentity.

Olszewski, Jacek. "And God Created a Woman – Contemplation of Beautiful Femininity in the Perspective of Christian Anthropology." Teologia w Polsce 17, no. 1 (June 21, 2023): 79–113. http://dx.doi.org/10.31743/twp.2023.17.1.05.
Abstract:
The text of the article is inspired by the question: how to interpret the beauty of femininity revealed in the work of creation in order to understand it in all its richness? The thought of John Paul II helps us in this, taken from his theology of the body, which critically assesses contemporary reductionist trends with a materialistic tint. At the same time, based on the above-mentioned author, we expand our reflection based on other Christian authors with an analogous inspiration. Against the utilitarian proposal, there is an argument about the paradisiacal delight of female beauty experienced by the first man. Only starting from this perspective can one speak of a man's first vocation: to have and hold a woman as a gift. This logic of gift leads us to discover that the erotic is not necessarily associated with lust, or worse, with subsequent downfall. It remains a gift given to man if the erotic is inscribed in what is ethical. Hence the conclusion that the erotic sphere is capable of directing our experience positively, towards the experience of being moved by the other. We are not only at the level of satisfying natural needs. In this way, we discover a completely different dimension of beauty. Beauty revealed by the erotic thrill accompanying the contemplation of femininity. Here we come to the conclusion that it has the power to transcend our purely human, often reduced, understanding of the forces dormant in human nature. It even leads to a statement about the supernatural power of eros, towards fullness, towards what is ultimate. Only then will we be able to understand what role the Creator assigned to the experience of Adam's admiration for the beauty revealed in Eve's femininity. The communion of a man and a woman born in beauty directs us to the divine source - the communion of Persons in the Holy Trinity. In a sense, the beauty revealed in a woman, the more carnal it is, the more it reveals to us the most profoundly spiritual and infinite spheres. The final answer to the question about the beauty of femininity and its role in meeting a man is the figure of the one we call All Beautiful - Mary.

Abstract:
In six patients aged 59–71 years carpal tunnel syndrome, seemingly idiopathic, was followed by connective tissue disorders, in most cases autoimmune in nature. Patients with idiopathic carpal tunnel syndrome may therefore require long-term follow-up, if inflammatory rheumatic conditions are not to be missed.

Slyvka, S. "Pilgrim's meta-anthropology theology in the philosophy of law: the law of combined vessels." Analytical and Comparative Jurisprudence, no. 5 (November 17, 2023): 737–41. http://dx.doi.org/10.24144/2788-6018.2023.05.132.
Abstract:
The scientific article examines such an aspect of the multidimensionality of the philosophy of law as the metaphysical law of connected vessels, which operates in the natural-supernatural legal space. It is proven that the filling of metaphysical vessels is carried out by the spirit (reflection, inertia) of the places of power contained in earthly supernatural benevolent phenomena. Therefore, ordinary excursions to these places are called pilgrimage trips. At the same time, the pilgrimage has a meta- anthropological character and is realized meta- anthropologically, that is, physically, mentally and spiritually. As a result, a person acquires moral (elementary and higher) qualities, necessary existential and transcendental qualities. The meta- anthropological law of connected vessels supports the legal harmony of the universe. The definition of pilgrimage theology is presented for the first time. Pilgrimage is beneficial for bodily calmness, gives rise to the feeling of acquired bodily dirt, impurity, because dirty actions cling to everyone, they are actions of evil. After all, carnal fornication is a kind of unclean power, which is directed so that a person does not fulfill the ontological bodily principles, leads a promiscuous lifestyle, does not control himself, and therefore creates such elementary moral standards that would approve dirty actions.
The philosophy of law resorts to such profound, as if too elementary, banal norms in order to prevent significantly visible violations. Pilgrimage is one of the methods of prevention of physical offenses, which can prevent the destruction and effect of the spiritual law of connected vessels in the universe.
The philosophy of the metaphysical law of connected vessels has a visible side - the influence of the fruits of bodily pilgrimage on the permanent formation of the factory of elementary morality, the springboard for the development of elementary virtues. This factory should be improved every time thanks to the pilgrimage and contribute to the development of new rules of righteous earthly life, understanding of the essence of existential and transcendental things. Even such fruits of the ordological pilgrimage as strengthening a careful attitude of a person to nature and the world, forming a physical code of health for oneself, removing oneself from a consumerist material state, limiting oneself in material needs, etc. do not allow violation of the law of connected vessels. From this we can draw a conclusion about the deep essence of the philosophy of law, the fundamental principles of law, the law in general, and human morality. After all, the physical behavior of a person is often inadequate to the actions of the law of connected vessels. In order to combat this inadequacy, humanity, society, and the state resort to creating a complex system of law enforcement activities, but tangible results are still insufficient. Pilgrimage to places of strength will give much more.

"Multiple Intraosseous Cysts of the Carpal Bones Presenting as Unilateral Carpal Tunnel Syndrome." Case Reports in Orthopedics 2023 (May 24, 2023): 1–3. http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2023/4110616.
Abstract:
Intraosseous ganglion cysts (IGC) of the carpal bones are frequently reported in the literature, involving at most two carpal bones of the same wrist. Only one case recently described the presence of multiple intraosseous ganglion lesions in the capitate, lunate, and triquetrum, resulting in chronic wrist pain. The following study reports the first case of multiple IGCs causing a unilateral carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), in a 56-year-old woman, with no previous history of trauma. Failure of conservative management prompted carpal tunnel release and the surgical excision of the ICGs, followed by autologous bone grafting to fill in the defects. Consequently, IGCs must be considered in the differential diagnosis of unilateral CTS due to the expansile nature of the bone lesions.

Abstract:
Tests of spatial discrimination were performed on the hands of patients with carpal tunnel syndrome, before and after surgical decompression. Impairment of sensibility and its recovery after treatment were better demonstrated by a new instrument, the wheel aesthesiometer, than by the moving two-point discrimination test. The psychophysics of the new test and the nature of the sensory impairment in carpal tunnel syndrome are discussed.

Abstract:
13 patients who sustained high-energy crush or blast injury of the carpal bones were reviewed after a mean follow-up period of 30 months. These complex injuries resulted in unusual disruptions of the distal carpal row and adjacent metacarpals. Frequent involvement of the carpometacarpal (CM) joints and violation of the proximal carpal row were also demonstrated. Nine were open injuries, with the majority accompanied by significant soft tissue damage. Treatment included either closed reduction or open reduction and Kirschner wire fixation, and soft tissue procedures as indicated. In this series, the majority of the open injuries gave unfavourable functional results despite adequate carpal, alignment. Several cases had disastrous outcomes related to associated vascular injuries. Closed injuries, on the contrary, followed a relatively benign course. Nevertheless, decreased grip strength persisted in both groups for a long time. Patients with such a complex carpal injury should expect a less favourable prognosis due to the severe nature of the trauma.

Abstract:
AbstractBredigite is a constituent of the very high-temperature, low-pressure, exomorphic suite of Carneal, Co. Antrim. Although this mineral is very rare in nature, it is an important constituent of some slags and cement clinkers but there has been much controversy about its nature, most of the evidence having come from artificial materials. Chemical analysis of the Carneal mineral shows it to be remarkably similar to that from the type locality, Scawt Hill (also analysed here), and that it is an individual mineral species of generalized ionic composition (Ca,Na)14(Mg,Fe2+Fe3+Mn)2(Si,P)8O32. Ba (abundant in the original analysis of the slag mineral) is not a constituent. Accurate X-ray powder data of the natural mineral are given. Bredigite is not Ca2SiO4, nor is it part of a solid solution of variable composition between larnite and merwinite. Analyses are presented for the associated minerals larnite (allowing appraisal of its composition), spurrite, and spinels. The paragenesis is discussed.

Petrenko-Tseunova, Olha. "‘STARVING’ STUDENTS: GASTROPOETICS OF THE ‘LOWER’ BAROQUE IN THE POETRY OF WANDERING DYAKS." Mìsto: ìstorìâ, kulʹtura, suspìlʹstvo, no. 7 (November 25, 2019): 23–34. http://dx.doi.org/10.15407/mics2019.07.023.
Abstract:
The author analyzes wandering dyaks as a specific group of 18th-century Ukrainian city and town intellectuals. During vacations and religious holidays, these young people went to high clergy and secular houses. They sang congratulatory songs about Christmas or Easter and delivered orations – poetic humorous speeches – abo school life and pupils’ wretchedness. For their performance, the wandering dyaks were rewarded, mostly with food. There was a special order from the administration of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy to release poor students for food begging with the obligation to return before the beginning of the school year. Therefore, such poems usually ended with a request for a reward.
Gastronomic poetics is one of the key tools of the «grassroots» baroque that appeared thanks to the intersection of the intellectual urban and folk rural cultures. This phenomenon became the basis for Ivan Kotlyarevsky’s «Eneida», a step towards new-time Ukrainian literature.
The texts analyzed in the article were first found in manuscript songbooks of 18th and early 19th century, both in Naddnipryanshchyna and Western Ukraine. It is noticeable that even after the end of the baroque epoch these songs were not forgotten, they were still performed, and ethnographers fixed them in various versions.
In contrast to the of «high» baroque, marked by the occurrence of metaphoricity and abstractness, one of the main characteristics of wandering dyaks’ poems is the emphasis on materiality, especially food. According to this, it is worth using gastrocriticism to interpret orations and travesties.
Gastronomic markers in the festive burlesque function as a series of oppositions: daily and ceremonial food; proper and improper; moderate and excessive; bestowed and stolen; banned and allowed; spiritual and carnal. Four aspects are investigated in the article. First of all, the self-image of ever-hungry students is closely reviewed. School life for common citizen had a clear association with poverty, which pointes the prominent role of malnutrition and forced fasting in poems of wandering dyaks. Secondly, the appearing of gastronomic utopias is proved as a reaction to a prolonged period of starvation. One more aspect is the conviction of excessive feeding. The last but not the least is the motive of giving, feasting and donating food in the poems of wandering dyaks.
The poetry of wandering dyaks consists of the element of folk culture, on the one hand, and the literary imagery, on the other. For the intellectual of the 18th-century nutrition, along with the usual meaning, reflects the unity of bodily and spiritual parts of human nature. In the baroque culture, the widespread metaphor is eating as a spiritual act, and the cognition is perceived as the saturation of the inner world. Nutrition is considered in two semantic terms: firstly, food as a sign of physicality and, potentially, sinfulness and seduction; secondly, food as the embodiment of eternal life, the celebration of vitality. The «high» baroque culture transmits the first vision. Instead, the «lower» culture is characterized by the second idea, which explains the emergence of gastronomic fantasies in the poems of wandering dyaks.

Abstract:
Objective. To investigate the clinical value of ultrasound combined with electrophysiological examination in the diagnosis of early carpal tunnel syndrome, we aimed to provide a new EMG (electromyography) method for detecting early carpal tunnel syndrome by exploring the wrist back stretch position and electrophysiological examination. Methods. For the 82-lateral wrist (case group) of 62 patients with clinical symptoms or confirmed carpal tunnel syndrome and 40 normal healthy patients, neuroelectrophysiological measurements were performed using a Keypoint6.0 EMG evoked potentiometer, measuring each group twice: conventional position (before compression) and dorsal wrist extension position. The measures for each measurement included DSL, DML, and CAMP. Measure sensory conduction first and then measure motor conduction. The measurements were analyzed in a comprehensive comparative analysis. Combined ultrasound examination, the positive rate of combined ultrasound examination and electrophysiological examination was compared, respectively. Results. In the carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) group, the anterior and posterior median nerve DSL was ( 4.27 ± 0.73 ) ms and ( 4.82 ± 0.65 ) ms, and SNAP was ( 13.32 ± 13.68 ) UV and ( 12.19 ± 11.04 ) UV; the median nerve (wrist-bunions) DML was ( 5.29 ± 1.26 ) ms and ( 5.54 ± 1.29 ) ms, and CMAP was ( 6.44 ± 2.40 ) mV and ( 6.21 ± 2.46 ) mV. Mid-median DSL and DM in the CTS group L were significantly longer than before compression; median nerve SNAP and CMAP were significantly reduced compared with before compression. Conclusion. Electrophysiological testing at the dorsal carpal extension position has high diagnostic value in the diagnosis of mild carpal tunnel syndrome. It helps to improve the diagnostic rate of early carpal tunnel syndrome, while providing a more accurate and effective EMG detection of early carpal tunnel syndrome, and combination examination of neuroelectrophysiology and ultrasound can improve the diagnosis rate of compression peripheral nerve diseases and clarify the site, nature, and scope of compression lesions, which is worthy of clinical application.

Abstract:
Abstract Caracal caracal (Schreber, 1776) is a felid commonly called the caracal. It is a slender, medium-sized cat (5.8–22 kg) characterized by a short tail and long ear tufts. C. caracal has a wide distribution and is found throughout Africa, north to the Arabian Peninsula, the Middle East, central and southwest Asia into India; its habitat includes arid woodlands, savanna, scrublands, hilly steppes, and arid mountainous regions. It is globally listed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources as “Least Concern” despite population trends unknown across most of its geographic distribution. The Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora lists Asian populations under Appendix I and African populations under Appendix II.

Abstract:
According to Carnap an account of the nature of mathematics, both pure and applied, must include the thesis that mathematical truths are devoid of factual content. He first formulated this thesis around 1930 and in its defence attempted to combine the reduction of mathematics to logic undertaken in the Principia with Wittgenstein’s insights into the nature of logic. In this paper I will show that this synthesis faces serious difficulties. Thus, it plays, with good reason, no longer a role in Carnap’s mature philosophy of mathematics.

Abstract:
There is a possibility that the time of submersion in natural rooting, with respect to vegetative propagation by fig cuttings, may have a significant effect or differences in the formation and characteristics of the roots. For this reason, the research wascarried out in the Multipurpose Nursery, belonging to the Cota Cota Experimental Centre, under a completely randomised design with factorial arrangement, using a mother plant of more than 12 years old, which is an indication that propagation would be difficult, due to the characteristics of the plant material. The response variables evaluated were: days to root formation, percentage of survival, root length, number of roots, and percentage of lodging. The following results were obtained based on the averages of the data collected in the field research: T9 (lentil water, 48 hours) rooted in 54 days, being the best rooting time. The percentage of survival was influenced by the rooting factor directly, with the natural rooters of lentil water and willow infusion responding much better, with 85.70 and 83.66 % respectively. The rooting and submersion time presented a direct significance in root length, which is equal to 7.60 cm, with treatment 5 (willow infusion, 24 hours). In the variable number of roots, both lentil water and willow infusion achieved 8 and 7 root units respectively, both in a submersion time of 24 hours, and it is also important to note the significance in both factors. Treatment 9 (lentil water, 48 hours) with 90 % was the best average in the variable percent rooting. It was confirmed that the longer the soaking time, the more positive the rooting of the cuttings, depending on the rooting agent used.

Abstract:
Carpal tunnel syndrome is the most common of compression neuropathies and in the structure of upper limb tunnel syndromes. Surgical treatments are diverse and clarifications of the indications for the implementation of each of them will allow to individualize the behavior of the intervention. Purpose of work – clarify the determining factors for classical and advanced minimally invasive intervention in carpal tunnel syndrome; evaluate the effectiveness of such an approach. We observed 52 patients with carpal tunnel syndrome with unsuccessful conservative treatment; electroneuromyographic and ultrasound signs of gross changes in the structures of the carpal canal. There were 19 men and 33 women (36.5% and 63.5%, respectively). In 28 patients (group 1), surgical intervention was performed according to the classical technique from an incision of 5.0-5.5 cm. Surgical treatment in 24 patients was carried out from an access of up to 2.5 cm (minimally invasive intervention). They made up the 2nd group. The dynamics of the indicators of the Boston BCTQ questionnaire and the visual analogue scale indicated a greater severity of symptoms, functional and pain disorders of the hand after 4 weeks in the extended access group compared with the minimally invasive access group with similar indicators before the intervention. However, by 3 and 6 months, the results converge and practically do not differ. Similar good results indicate the correctness of the chosen tactics and the validity of an individual approach in determining the nature and scope of the intervention.

Abstract:
Nous publions sous ce titre la traduction française de l'essai philosophique de Kurt Gödel intitulé: «Is Mathematics Syntax of Language?» Inédit jusqu'à présent, l'original paraîtra dans le 3e volume des Collected Works de Gödel, dont la publication est imminente. Nous savons par Hao Wang que, le 15 mai 1953, Paul Arthur Schilpp avait invité Gödel à apporter sa contribution au volume consacré à Carnap dans The Library of Living Philosophers. Le manuscrit de Gödel «Carnap and the Ontology of Mathematics», devait être remis au plus tard le 2 avril 1954. Dés le 2 juillet 1953, Gödel donnait son accord à Schilpp pour la rédaction d'un article intitulé «Some Observations on the Nominalistic View of the Nature of Mathematics.» Cependant, le volume consacré à Carnap paraîtra en 1963 sans qu'y figure la contribution de Gödel. En effet — toujours selon Wang — Gödel avait informé Schilpp, le 2 février 1959, qu'il renonçait à l'envoi de l'article, dont il avait composé, surtout en 1954–1955, plusieur s versions sous le titre «Is Mathematics Syntax of Language?» Pour expliquer cet abandon, Wang avance les raisons suivantes: En premier lieu, Gödel était bien convaincu d'avoir réfuté la thése syntaxique, mais il n'était pas satisfait de son argumentation en faveur du platonisme. Deuxiémement, les critiques de Gödel s'adressent aux théses soutenues par Carnap en 1934 plutôt qu'à celles que ce dernier défendra vingt ans aprés, et qui paraissent moins hostiles au platonisme de son interlocuteur. II pouvait paraître douteux, en troisieme lieu, que Carnap ait eu le temps de rédiger, en 1959, la réponse qu'il aurait du faire, conformément aux régies de la collection, à Gödel. Or, en 1943 déjà, Gödel avait voulu retirer sa contribution au volume consacré à Russell dans la même serie, parce que ce dernier n'avait pu répondre à l'article de Gödel dont la rédaction lui avait été communiquée trop tardivement.

Abstract:
The megalithic monuments of Carnac, Brittany, in the Département of the Morbihan, are amongst the most farnous in France. indeed in the world. This region has not only the densest conccntration of such sites in Europe but also retained its importance as a centre of monument-building from the late 5th to the :jrd millennium FK:, giving it a unique significance in the study of Neolithic landscapes (Sherratt 1990; 1998). Its menhirs, stone alignments, and megalithic tombs have attracted the attention of scholars since the 18th century, and there is thus an unusually full record, both written and pictorial, of the nature of these monuments as they were perceived over 300 years.

Abstract:
Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) typically presents with widespread peripheral motor and sensory deficits that progress over a 2- to 3-month period. In this article, the authors report a case involving a 32-year-old pregnant woman presenting to hand clinic after a 3-month history of bilateral median nerve compression consistent with carpal tunnel syndrome. Carpal tunnel syndrome is a common complaint resulting from pregnancy-associated edema and is typically treated conservatively. However, upon follow-up, this patient displayed new signs of widespread peripheral neurological deficits, prompting a diagnosis of CIDP. In addition to this highly atypical presentation of CIDP, the patient’s symptoms spontaneously remitted throughout the pregnancy requiring no further treatment. This case highlights the heterogeneous nature of neurological disease presentation and the importance in considering alternative diagnosis in what may appear as clear-cut plastic surgery case.

Abstract:
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a neuropathy brought about by the entrapment and compression of the median nerve as it travels through the carpal tunnel. The hallmark of classic CTS is pain or paraesthesia (numbness, burning, or tingling) in the palmar aspect of the first 3 digits, as well as the radial aspect of the fourth digit. Although idiopathic in nature, many risk factors have been attributed to the development of CTS. These factors include diabetes mellitus, acromegaly, thyroid disease, rheumatoid arthritis, pregnancy, the use of steroids, and the repetitive use of hand and wrist. The prevalence also seems to be higher in obese women. In literature, trauma, foreign body, tumors, or anatomical variations are considered to be infrequent causes of CTS. A rare form of CTS is the acute carpal tunnel syndrome (ACTS) that presents mainly after injuries to the upper extremities. The patient typically acknowledges trauma to the wrist secondary to a foreign body at the time of injury. In some cases, small fragments may penetrate the wrist and remain unnoticed causing acute neurological symptoms. In literature, there were limited studies that reported the development of ACTS secondary to missed foreign bodies following trauma. This report presents a case of ACTS sustained following a penetrating foreign body (pellet) to the right wrist. Removal of the foreign body resulted in complete recovery with no neurological sequelae.

Abstract:
The purpose of the article is to study the role of the musical imperative in the modernization, transformation of the spiritual autobiography genre in the novel by B.L Pasternak Doctor Zhivago. To achieve this goal, the following tasks are required: a brief overview of biographical facts of the writer’s life, illustrating the path of his aesthetic philosophy and worldview, artistic formation, in which music played a dominant role; to study the musical imperative at the ideological-philosophical, system-structural, and aesthetic-artistic levels. While researching, biographical, systemic, structural, and hermeneutic methods were used. One of the culminating pages in the biography of Pasternak, the content of which had influenced Pasternak’s creative world, would be the day when he heard the sounds of musical improvisation on the piano by Skryabin, who was creating Divine poem. The sounds of music had merged with reality, the voice of nature, becoming a single whole with it. With a transforming and creative effort of memory, impressions coming from childhood would be built into the figurative-conceptual chain of his worldview “Life − music − creativity – poetry”, in which “music and poetry speak the same language of art”. All the creative heritage of B.L. Pasternak, including the final work − the novel Doctor Zhivago, which is represented as a kind of spiritual autobiography, both personal and the entire generation, respectively, serves as a generalization of the historical, philosophical, aesthetic and artistic paths of the Silver Age, a part of which was the author himself. Merging with its voice, and at the same time absorbing it into himself, he became a generalized representation of his generation portrait. In Doctor Zhivago, music appears at the level of mentions, quotations, and various sound images throughout the text. Their main ideological and semantic content is summed up by the words of Vedenyapin, in which Music is the equivalent of Truth, a “divine voice”, “raising above the animal and carrying it upward”, giving an inner impetus to the personality to move along the path of history to eternity. Research results. The ideological and philosophical setting of the musical novel organization is the idea of Music as a metaphor of the Artist-Christ, the embodiment of eternity, the path and a new history established by the sacrifice of Christ, leading to the human spirit. Accordingly, the theme of the path in spiritual autobiography as an ascent from the carnal to the spiritual level of consciousness, the attainment of eternity is reflected in the musical key as a progress of progress towards music and “melodization” of the spiritual path. At the systemic and structural level, the musical imperative is built in the form of a counterpoint principle substantiated by B.M. Gasparov, and the complex tiered hierarchical organization of the novel, in which all levels (individual, socio-historical, eternal) gravitate towards a single value center − the Artist-Christ − and merge in symphonic polyphony in unison. At the aesthetic and artistic level, this is achieved through the lyricization of the narrative, rhythmic insertions that “illuminate” the prose part, like the “voice of eternity”, repetitions, dividing the narrative into prose and lyrics as a form of music (the earthly path and eternity as its finale and the achievement of completeness existence) and, most importantly, building an acoustic space, contributing to the creation of a suggestive effect of “audibility” of the text. The acoustic space is built thanks to the presence of numerous sound images, the melodiousness and rhythm of the prose part, inserts from sacred texts and church chants, the attraction of Chopin`s techniques and motives, as well as the motive of distant sound as a timeless messenger of apocalyptic “future”.

Abstract:
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) usually presents bilaterally and a secondary nature should be suspected in patients with unilateral symptoms, especially those with a long-standing history, and when the symptomatic hand shows severe neurophysiologic impairment, while the contralateral hand is neurophysiologically intact. Space-occupying lesions are known to cause CTS and the incidence of space-occupying lesions in unilateral CTS is higher than that of bilateral CTS. It is easy to detect a mass when it is palpable; however, occult lesions are usually overlooked. Whenever a patient presents with unilateral symptoms and unilateral neurophysiologic impairment, the possibility of a space-occupying lesion compressing the median nerve should be kept in mind in the differential diagnosis. This study presents two cases with an occult ganglion in the carpal tunnel compressing the median nerve and causing unilateral symptoms of CTS. We stress on the importance of imaging studies in patients with unilateral symptoms that are usually not used in CTS. The reported patients were evaluated and magnetic resonance images revealed an intratunnel space-occupying lesion.

Abstract:
To Elizabethan observers in many disciplines, feminine beauty and music offered parallel benefits and dangers that influenced prescriptions for the actual musical behavior of contemporary Englishwomen and also the development of stock literary situations in which female musicians either caused spiritual fulfillment or physical destruction. Conflicting ideologies, based on the most respected ancient authorities and contemporary observers, attributed similarly opposite aspects to women and music, which had both come to be regarded as earthly embodiments of the divine and the damning by the final part of the sixteenth century. Women, who possessed the natures of both Mary and Eve, were regarded as agents alternately of salvation and destruction even as music was perceived as an inspiration to both heavenly rapture and carnal lust.

Abstract:
A retrospective study was performed on 62 patients who had undergone carpal tunnel decompression surgery. Each patient was assessed in clinic, their case notes were reviewed and their electrophysiological results were analysed and graded according to severity. The median preoperative duration of symptoms was 2 years. No relationship was found between the nature or duration of pre-operative symptoms and the severity of the electrophysiological impairment. Furthermore, no relationship could be identified between pre-operative nerve conduction impairment and either successful outcome of surgery (defined as complete symptom relief) or time to resolution of symptoms after surgery.

Abstract:
"Let a Kantian view of empirical truth be any view according to which the truth of empirical claim depends on the truth of non-empirical claims, because subjects (consciously or not) constitute the empirical when applying the non-empirical to experience. Historically the most important such view is Immanuel Kant’s. It is not the only. Rudolf Carnap, Thomas Kuhn, and Donald Davidson held such views. Conversely, Willard van Orman Quine’s view was contrastingly instructive. My aim is to briefly sort all this out in search of lessons about the nature of empirical truth generally.

Abstract:
Introduction Gas stations present several workplace hazards of physical, chemical, ergonomic, biological and psychosocial nature. Repetitive movements, lifting heavy items and poor posture are among the ergonomic hazards, which can lead to various pathologies in the short and long term. Musculoskeletal disorders are one of the most common work-related diseases, contributing to loss of quality of life and decrease labor productivity. Clinical Case Report The authors describe the case of a 54-year-old female worker, a gas station operator, who developed pain and paresthesia in her right hand. She was observed in Occupational Health medical exam and the diagnostic hypothesis of carpal tunnel syndrome was proposed. After the orthopedic examination, the diagnosis was confirmed with surgery indication, which occurred without complications. Upon returning to work, the occupational disease was participated, being recognized afterwards because the linkage between her pathology and professional activity was confirmed. Discussion/Conclusion With this article we intend to alert to the need of notifying occupational diseases whenever there is an association between the activity and the pathology presented, as well as to emphasize the multiplicity of risk factors existing in gas stations, being essential the implementation of surveillance programs to promote workers’ health.

Abstract:
In this review work it has been demonstrated that the seeds of pomegranate (Punica granatum), grapes (Vitis vinifera L.), blueberries (Vaccinium myrtillus), papaya (Carica papaya), rosemary (Salvia rosmarinus), flaxseed (Linum usitatissimum), guava (Psidium guajava), oregano (Origanum vulgare), cherry (Prunus subg. Cerasus) and passion fruit (Passiflora edulis), which are fruit residues containing oils that play an important role in extending the shelf life of fresh meats. The shelf life of fresh meats is being affected by lipid action resulting from exposure to oxygen of meats stored under refrigeration. This exposure of meats to oxygen causes changes in the conformation of myoglobin by the action of oxygen into oxymyoglobin due to the presence of oxygen during storage. The antioxidants in the seeds will increase shelf life by up to 20 days, making the preservation of fresh meat, maintaining its odor and flavor. It is concluded that it is necessary to minimize the action of oxygen to prolong the shelf life of fresh meat, reducing the use of oxygen by 30 to 40%, thus avoiding rapid deterioration; likewise, consumers are becoming more demanding every day, requiring natural and safe foods.

"Morphologie study of induced osteochondral defects of the distal portion of the radial carpal bone in horses by use of glued periosteal autografts." American Journal of Veterinary Research 52, no. 2 (February 1, 1991): 317–27. http://dx.doi.org/10.2460/ajvr.1991.52.02.317.
Abstract:
SUMMARY The use of periosteal autografts to resurface osteochondral defects was investigated in 10 horses (2 to 3 years old), and the repair tissue was characterized morphologically. Middle carpal joint arthrotomies were made, and osteochondral defects were induced bilaterally on the distal articular surface of each radial carpal bone. Each defect measured approximatively 1 cm2 and extended 3 mm into the subchondral bone plate. Residual subchondral bone plate of control and principal defects was perforated by drilling. A sterile fibrin adhesive was made by mixing a fibrinogen component and a thrombin component. A periosteal autograft was harvested from the proximal portion of the tibia and was glued onto the recipient osseous surface, with its cambium facing the joint cavity. Control defects were glued, but not grafted. Horses were walked 1 hour daily on a walker, starting at postoperative week 7 and continuing for 9 weeks. Sixteen weeks after the grafting procedure was done, carpal radiography was performed, after which horses were euthanatized. Quality of repair tissue of control and grafted defects was evaluated and compared grossly, histologically, and histochemically. Using a reticule, the proportions of various repair tissue types filling each defect were quantitated. Seven weeks after the grafting procedure was done, bilateral arthroscopy revealed synovial adhesions and marginal pannus formation in control and grafted defects. None of the autografts was found floating unattached within the respective middle carpal joints. At 16 weeks, the gross appearance of most grafted and nongrafted defects was similar, and repair was dominated by a fibrous pannus. In 4 grafted defects, bone had formed either concentrically within the defect or eccentrically in the fibrous adhesions between the defect and the joint margin. Histologically, all grafted and nongrafted defects were repaired similarly by infiltration of a mixture of fibrous tissue, fibrocartilage, and bone. Fibrous tissue was the predominant tissue in most defects and its mean proportion was 56 and 59% in the grafted and nongrafted defects, respectively. Fibrocartilaginous tissue in the deeper layers approximated 20%, and woven bone at the base of the defect was 20% in all defects. Histochemically, difference in staining for proteoglycans was not observed between grafted and nongrafted defects. Little remaining original periosteal graft tissue was evident at the defect sites. The only distinguishing feature of grafted defects was the presence of islands of bone formation either at the defect site (n = 2 horses), or in somewhat dorsally displaced tissue that was incorporated in fibrous adhesions (n = 2 horses). It was concluded that use of periosteal autografts did not improve the healing of osteochondral defects of the distal portion of the radial carpal bone. The repair tissue produced in grafted and nongrafted defects was similar and was principally fibrous in nature.

Abstract:
This article deals with the work of the prominent philosopher and logician Rudolf Carnab in establishing the Confirmability Principle as a tool to distinguish scientific from metaphysical statements, and the objections raised by the philosopher of science Karl Popper to this principle. It also focuses on the philosophical and logical argumentation that lasted decades between them and its outcomes which had an influence on the contemporary shape of the philosophy of science in the twentieth century and how each one of them presented his own account for the nature of scientific methods that contemporary sciences must follow. While Carnab and the logical positivism group in general created the “verification principle” and then the “confirmability principle” as the proper way to eliminate metaphysical ideas from science that hindered its eventual progress for several decades, relying on the inductive method as a ground for scientific progress, Popper on the other hand, thought that in order to achieve such progress one must adhere to scientific theories and more specifically to the “Falsification Principle” in addition to relying on the “Virtual method” which grants the “Rational Hypothesis” a crucial role in contemporary sciences. The article concludes with the results of this argumentation and with how philosophy of contemporary science ended up giving more weight to the rational hypothesis and less to the confirmability principle due to the retreat of rigid empiricism in contemporary sciences, especially in physics. This led contemporary science to depend on philosophy once again.

Abstract:
Examination of material from the Northwest Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico revealed the presence of two new species of the amphipod genus Cerapus. One of the species occurs in the NW Atlantic (Delaware Bay and Great South Bay, New York) and the other species occurs in the Gulf of Mexico (Manatee River, Florida and Corpus Christie Bay, Texas). They can be distinguished from congeners by a combination of characters: number of antennular flagella articles, position of the male gnathopod 2 carpal process, shape of the inner ramus of pleopod 2, presence of a distoventral hook on the uropod 1 peduncle of the male, and the nature of the pereopod 7 spination/setation. They can be distinguished from each other by the number of antennular flagella articles in the female and in overall body size.

Abstract:
With increasing frequency, reports appear in the popular press linking hand and wrist musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) with keyboard work. Excessive ulnar deviation and self-perceived fast typing speed are two of the many risk factors identified through various epidemiological studies of upper extremity MSD symptoms among those working with keyboards. Yet no study has offered quantitative, biomechanical evidence to explain how these factors might contribute to MSD development. A study was designed to examine carpal tunnel pressure (CTP) during typing, and the effect of radial-ulnar wrist posture and typing speed on CTP. Female subjects typed on a commercially-available keyboard which was oriented in standard and in split configurations. In the split arrangement ulnar deviation was eased in all but one wrist. In the split arrangement, all subjects demonstrated a decrease in CTP concomitant with a decrease in ulnar wrist deviation. However, only one subject exhibited CTP which significantly exceeded pressure thresholds identified in the literature. CTP appeared to be subject-specific in nature. Typing speed was found to affect peak CTP in half of the subjects.

Abstract:
This article is a continuation of the previous publication published under the same title (part 1). Both parts are devoted to the problem of understanding the split that once occurred in world philosophy and was embodied in the division of philosophy into two directions, continental and analytical philosophy. In the second part, the author continues to discuss the reasons for the split and the argumentation cited by various authors, proving the conceptual difference of directions. The article analyzes the main ideas of the authors of the Vienna Circle Manifesto and the argumentation of R. Carnap in his dispute with M. Heidegger, the subject of which is devoted to the so-called overcoming of metaphysics. The reason for writing both parts was the work of M. Fridman “Parting of the Ways: Carnap, Cassirer and Heidegger”, translated into Russian. The result of the second part is the conclusions formulated by the author of the article regarding the difference between the named directions. The author believes that it makes sense to discuss their differences not in the categories of truth and falsity of teachings and concepts, but in the categories of different orientations and attitudes, which do not deny but complement each other. On the one hand, analytical philosophy claims to be scientific orientation, clear and precise language, logic and mathematics. In contrast to it, continental philosophy does not pretend to be scientific, to a clear and precise language, but prefers innuendo, rejection of doctrinalism, and the exploratory nature of philosophizing.

Abstract:
Healthcare information contained on the World Wide Web is not screened or regulated and claims may be unsubstantiated and misleading. The objective of this study was to evaluate the nature and quality of information on the Web in relation to hand surgery. Three search engines were assessed for information on three hand operations: carpal tunnel decompression, Dupuytren's release and trigger finger release. Websites were classified and evaluated for completeness, accuracy, accountability and reference to a reliable source of information. A total of 172 websites were examined. Although 85% contained accurate information, in 65% this information was incomplete. Eighty-seven per cent of websites were accountable for the information presented, but only 24% made references to reliable sources. Until an organised approach to website control is established, it is important for hand surgeons to emphasise to their patients that not everything they read is complete or accurate. Publicising sites known to be of high quality will promote safe browsing of the Web.

Abstract:
The paper provides an overview of the most fundamental ideas representing analytic philosophy throughout its history from the beginning of 20th century up to now. The history of analytic philosophy is divided into two stages – the early and the contemporary ones. The main distinguishing features of early analytic philosophy are using mathematical logic as a tool of stating and solving philosophical problems, and critical attitude toward ‘metaphysics’, i.e., traditional and contemporary non-analytic philosophical theories. The genesis of analytic philosophy was closely related to the revolution in logic that led to the rise of mathematical logic, and it is no coincidence that some founders of analytic tradition (first of all Frege, Russell, and Carnap) were also prominent logicians. (But there were also authors and schools within early analytic philosophy whose researches were based on less formal tools such as classical logic and linguistic methods of analysis of language. Ordinary language philosophy is an example of this type of philosophy.) Using the new logic as a philosophical tool led to a huge number of new ideas and generated a new type of philosophical criticism that was implemented in a number of projects of ‘overcoming metaphysics’. These features constituted the methodological and thematic profile of early analytic philosophy. As opposed to the later, contemporary analytic philosophy cannot be characterized by a prevailing method or a set of main research topic. Its characteristic features are rather of historical, institutional, and stylistic nature. In the paper, early analytic philosophy is represented by Frege, Russell, early Wittgenstein, Vienna Circle (Schlick, Carnap etc.), and ordinary language philosophy (later Wittgenstein, Ryle, Austin, and Searle). Contemporary analytic philosophy is represented by Quine, and direct reference theory in philosophy of language (Kripke, Donnellan, Kaplan, and Putnam).

Abstract:
Background: Anatomical structure affects function. The morphology of articulations dictates the way forces will travel through the joint. A better understanding of the structure and function of the wrist will enhance our ability to diagnose and treat wrist conditions. Two wrist types have been described based on the morphology of the midcarpal joint. Biomechanically it is important to see if these 2-dimensional (2D) observations reflect articular contact areas. Our purpose was to assess the correlation between measurements performed on wrist radiographs (2D) to measurements performed on 3-dimensional (3D) computed tomography (CT). Methods: Retrospective review of a database of normal wrist radiographs and corresponding normal CT scans. Only imaging pairs with normal carpal alignment and technically optimal imaging were included. Evaluations included lunate, capitate and wrist type, capitate circumference, percent capitate circumference and volume that articulates with the lunate, scapholunate ligament, scaphoid, hamate, trapezoid, base of the index and middle and ring metacarpal bones. Results: Midcarpal joint radiographic measurements were positively correlated with measurements on CT scans. Correlations were 0.51 for capitate type and 0.71 for lunate type with both p < 0.001. Percent contact of the lunate with the hamate: r was 0.74 p < 0.001. Using logistic regression analysis, percent lunate-hamate contact on CT was a significant predictor of radiographic lunate type 2 p < 0.001. Percent contact area between lunate and hamate > 7.8% on CT scan achieved a sensitivity of 100% and specificity 79.4% for a type 2 lunate. Conclusions: 1) Good correlations found between CT and plain radiographs in lunate type, capitate type, and midcarpal joint contact support the use of plain radiographs to describe contact between the carpal bones in the clinical setting. 2) The retrospective nature of this study limited the technical quality of the measurements. Volumetric analysis may aid in a more exact evaluation of surface contact area.
