The Role of the Outstanding Professor Leopold Kasper in the Development of European Clinical Urology of the Second Half of the XIX and Early XX Centuries (to the 160th anniversary of his birth)
No full textThe development and scientific priorities of European urology of the second half of the XIX and early XX centuries are analyzed. The main dates of life and scientific and practical activity of Prof. Leopold Kasper are presented. The scientific views and thoughts of the scientist are noted. He specialized in urology under the leadership of G. Thompson, P. Freyer, F. Guyon, I. Albarran and L. Dittel after graduating from the University of Berlin in 1883. L. Kasper was the founder of a large German urological school. In addition, he is the author of many works, among which research on cystoscopy, endoscopic operations, functional diagnosis of kidneys diseases, treatment of renal tuberculosis and kidney stone disease, prostate diseases, transurethral galvanocaustics of bladder tumors, etc. are particularly distinguished. He constructed a special catheterization cystoscope (1895) through which for the first time it became possible to study the functional ability of each kidney individually, which greatly facilitated the recognition and treatment of surgical diseases of the kidneys and upper urinary tract. He improved and put into practice a functional renal test with floridzine and cryoscopic urine examination obtained from each kidney separately by catheterization of the ureters. It is noted that L. Kasper was one of the founders of the Society of German urologists, whose founding meeting was held in 1907 in Vienna. In the same year, L. Kasper, together with other prominent surgeons and urologists, founded the journal «Zeitschrift für Urologie», of which he was editor for decades. L. Kasper was an honorary member of nineteen scientific societies, including the Society of Moscow urologists, of which he was elected an honorary member in 1924

Heterogeneous and tissue-specific regulation of effector T cell responses by IFN-gamma during Plasmodium berghei ANKA infection.
No full textIFN-γ and T cells are both required for the development of experimental cerebral malaria during Plasmodium berghei ANKA infection. Surprisingly, however, the role of IFN-γ in shaping the effector CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cell response during this infection has not been examined in detail. To address this, we have compared the effector T cell responses in wild-type and IFN-γ(-/-) mice during P. berghei ANKA infection. The expansion of splenic CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells during P. berghei ANKA infection was unaffected by the absence of IFN-γ, but the contraction phase of the T cell response was significantly attenuated. Splenic T cell activation and effector function were essentially normal in IFN-γ(-/-) mice; however, the migration to, and accumulation of, effector CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells in the lung, liver, and brain was altered in IFN-γ(-/-) mice. Interestingly, activation and accumulation of T cells in various nonlymphoid organs was differently affected by lack of IFN-γ, suggesting that IFN-γ influences T cell effector function to varying levels in different anatomical locations. Importantly, control of splenic T cell numbers during P. berghei ANKA infection depended on active IFN-γ-dependent environmental signals--leading to T cell apoptosis--rather than upon intrinsic alterations in T cell programming. To our knowledge, this is the first study to fully investigate the role of IFN-γ in modulating T cell function during P. berghei ANKA infection and reveals that IFN-γ is required for efficient contraction of the pool of activated T cells
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
Hygiene, school and children’s body in the Kingdom of Italy
No full textAt the end of the nineteenth century hygiene became an important issue in Italy. The hygiene movement had a clear Positivistic stamp and was connected with Masonry. It carried out, aside the medical fight against contagious diseases, a vast popular campaign to educate people to hygienic themes. Hygiene and manners were tightly connected, in the effort of ameliorating the ‘degenerated’ poor Italians. School was gradually invested by this aim, in a double aspect. On one side, school buildings and environment had to promote health instead of diffusing illnesses. On the other side, hygiene had to be taught to children. The paper follows how hygiene became a subject, with 1894 elementary school programmes and 1905 ones, which introduced a public dimension aside personal hygiene. The 1923 programmes were written by G. Lombardo Radice, foremost educationalist, who curved the subject in a practical way. Fascism highlighted public hygiene and the regime efforts, connecting personal health and fitness to the strength and military power of the State. The paper examines textbooks for pupils and for teachers, highlighting how hygiene was taught, also with examples from school-exercise books and teachers’ diaries. The subject was always gendered, reserving to girls and woman children’s and house cleaning and to boys and men work hygiene. Doctors and paediatricians transmitted hygienic culture from the middle class to the popular classes and particularly to mothers. The teaching of hygiene assumed characters of body but also mind discipline that exceeded the aims of hygiene and intertwined with pedagogy and political ideology. In the programmes of democratic Italy, in 1945, Lombardo Radice’s pedagogical stamp was revived, aside Dewey’s attention to pupils’ personal research. In 1955 programmes hygiene disappeared: many medical battles were won, against contagious diseases, against infant mortality, and Progressive education did not accept a strong discipline and control on children’s bodies
Pelevin’s Trinity in the novel “t”: author – protagonist – reader
No full textThe article attempts to interpret Pelevin's artistic strategy in the novel "T" by exploring its subject organization and addressing the key problems of the author, the protagonist, and the reader as they are seen by the researcher. The article analyzes the peculiarities of constructing the narrative reality in the novel "T", and goes on to discuss Pelevin's philosophic models of the development of the humankind, and the emergence of his new anthropology
Kasper Karliński (Obrona Olsztyna) – a historical drama by Władysław Syrokomla
No full textOne of the best known and appreciated dramas written by Władysław Syrokomla is Kasper Karliński. Dramat historyczny we trzech aktach (1857). Syrokomla based his work on a 19th century patriotic legend of the defence of the Allstein (Olsztyn) castle in 1587. Created to uplift hearts, the legend had a compensatory nature. Karliński became a hero in collective memory that was perpetuated in the 19th century literary texts, as in Kasper Karliński albo oblężenie Holsztyna (1824) by Stefan Witwicki, Obrona Olsztyna (1830) by Aleksander Fredro and in Syrokomla’s work. The play was first staged in Vilnius in 16–28 January, 1858 under the title
Obrona Olsztyna, and thereafter it was frequently performed in Grodno, Minsk, and Druskininkai. Kasper Karliński (who died in 1590) became a legendary hero and steadfast defender of the Allstein castle, who did not hesitate to sacrifice his own son to save the fortress and avoid disgrace. For Karliński, the love and duty to the Homeland appeared more important than his private life, and this what Syrokomla saw as the dramatic potential for a great Shakespearean-like national tragedy. Unlike other authors, Syrokomla portrayed Zygmunt differently, showing him as a fully aware young man, ready to lay down his life for the country: a child warrior and a martyr.Maria Jolanta Olszewska – profesor doktor habilitowany, pracuje na Wydziale Polonistyki Uniwersytetu Warszawskiego.
