Abstract

FIRMLY do we believe that the method proposed by our great English Physiologist, Dr. MARSHALL HALL, for restoring the asphyxiated from drowning, and for resuscitating children apparently stillborn , is destined entirely to supersede and set aside every other mode now in use, and every one that had been previously adopted. Nor is this all ; it appears to be equally certain, that in hundreds of instances in which all other systems hitherto used have failed, and in many in which they actually killed, the mode of treatment recommended by Dr. MARSHALL HALL would have been crowned with the happiest possible results. Anything more simple, philosophical, or beautiful than the process described, could not have been designed. It is proposed to call the plan the '' Ready Method" of treating the drowned; but we think that title may lead to an uncertainty of action, and to some confusion in practice. Infinitely preferable, in our opinion, would be the title, " MARSHALL HALL'S Method." This designation is due to the distinguished discoverer, and the method would thus be benevolently associated with his name to the end of time. Mark, so simple is the process, as a mode of action, that one person, who takes from the water another person apparently drowned, may, to a great extent, and on the instant, carry into operation the mode of pro

Effects of Levamisole on the Immune Responses of Experimentally Malnourished Rats

“…Our findings that levamisole influences cell-mediated and not humoral immunity agree with previous reports (3,19,21,22). In spite of the extensive literature on the immunostimulatory effects of levamisole, its mode of action is not known (15).…”

A Membrane Defect in Cystic Fibrosis: Decreased Red Cell Permeability to Water

“…K', and/or CaZ' transport ( I ) abnormalities in the Na', K'-dependent and Ca"'-dependent ATPases in erythrocytes from patients with cystic fibrosis (5,18). However, more recent studies were unable to confirm these observations and concluded that there are neither abnormalities in sodium, potassium, or calcium transport (10, 1 I, 16,25) nor the ATPase enzymes which appear to be-responsible for the active transport o i these ions across cell membranes.…”

AZINLIK HAKLARI ile YERLİ HALKLARIN HAKLARININ KOLEKTİF HAK KULLANIMI ÇERÇEVESİNDE KARŞILAŞTIRILMASI

“…Avrupa Konseyi Ulusal Azınlıkların Korunması için Çerçeve Sözleşmesi "Taraf Devletler, ulusal azınlıklara mensup olan kişilerin, kültürel, sosyal ve ekonomik yaşama ve özellikle kendilerini ilgilendiren kamusal işlere etkili bir biçimde katılmaları için gerekli şartları yaratır" şeklindeki 15. maddesi ile devletlere pozitif bir edim yüklemektedir. 15. madde müphem bir yapı arz etmesine rağmen taraf devletler etkili katılımın bir yolunun yetkilerin belli oranda devri olduğu konusunda hemfikirdirler 85 . Karar verici yapılara katılım yoluyla azınlık temsilcileri azınlığı ilgilendiren kamusal işlere doğrudan katılma ve devlet organlarında azınlığın taleplerini doğrudan dile getirme imkânına erişirler.…”
