The concept of peace in the Tao Te Ching
No full textThis thesis represents a first attempt to analyze Lao Tzu's main method of resolving the social and political problems in Ch'un Ch'iu and Warring States Periods. Lao Tzu, the founder of Taoism, suggested many solutions that could bring an end to the conflicts and to the ending of the disunity of China. Examples of these include the reform or abolishment of some ancient Chinese institutions as well as new principles for the enhancement and preservation of life. All these ideas were to become crystallised in Tao Te Ch'ing, which became an important religious text. In particular, the aspect of Lao Tzu's methods for solving the social and political problems of China in the Warring States Period needs more attention. In each chapter of the Tao Te Ch'ing there was a main emphasis on peace as the main method of developing social cohesion and as a cure to all fundamental human problems. Therefore, Lao Tzu's ideas about peace and his methods of solving the problems of the Warring States period are significant and from the main focus of the thesis

Heterozygous ATP2A2 missense variant identified in a Shih Tzu with Darier disease.
No full textDarier disease is caused by heterozygous loss of function variants in the ATP2A2 gene encoding the endoplasmic/sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump ATP2A2. Defective intracellular calcium signaling in the epidermis results in a loss of desmosomal adhesion and the development of characteristic skin lesions. In this study, we investigated a Shih Tzu that developed erythematous papules on the ventrum and, over time, the dorsal neck and a nodule in the right ear canal with secondary ear infection. Histopathologic examination demonstrated discrete foci of acantholysis affecting suprabasal layers of the epidermis. Whole genome sequencing of the affected dog identified a heterozygous missense variant, p.N809H, affecting an evolutionarily conserved amino acid residue of the ATP2A2 protein. The highly characteristic clinical and histopathologic findings together with a plausible variant in the only known functional candidate gene establish the diagnosis of canine Darier disease in the studied dog and highlight the potential of genetic analyses as complementary diagnostic approach in veterinary medicine
Yü-shih/chih 禺氏 as Appeared in the Kuan-tzu 管子
No full textIn the Sections on Ch’ing Chung 輕重篇 in Kuon-tzu, there appears several times the name of Yü-shih/chih which is generally considered as identical with the tribe Yueh-shih/chih 月氏 or Ta Yueh-shih/chih 大月氏 which migrated from the north-western part of China as far as Ta-hsia 大夏or what is now the northern half of Afghanistan.The Yü-shih/chih of Kuan-tzu is described as either a tribe or a place in which yü 玉 or jade was collected in abundance. As is well known, it is the region of the present Khotan in Chinese Turkestan where so much jade has been collected from ancient times and brought to China. And the statement of Kuan-tzu concerning Yü-shih/chih is taken as meaning the occupation of the Khotan region by the Yueh-shih/chih tribe or as the trading of jade which the Yueh-shih/chih collected and brought to China.The author of the present article tries to establish that the name Yü-shih/chih itself designates Khotan and that the statement in Kuan-tzu intends to say that the jade was collected in the Khotan region. It is for the following three reasons: (1) the Sections on Ch’ing Chung in Kuan-tzu are considered to have been compiled in or sometime after the reign of emperor Wu 武 of the Former Han Dynasty, as has been clearly pointed out by Professor Ma Fe-po 馬非百, when the name of Khotan was known by the Chinese for the first time as the result of the first mission of Chang Ch’ien 張鶱 to Central Asia; (2) the name of Khotan was recorded by Ssu-ma Ch’ien 司馬遷 in the Shih-chi 史記, Bk. 123, as Yu-t’ien 于○ which later corrupted into Yu-chih 于寘 is shown by almost all current texts of Shih-chi; (3) the compiler of the Sections on Ch’ing Ch’ung of Kuan-tzu who saw the corrupted form Yü-chih, changed it into Yü-shih/chih in reference to the name Yü 禺 which is recorded as a mysterious place or tribe in Mu-t’ien-tzu chuan 穆天子傳 and Shan-hai-ching 山海經.○は寘のうかんむりと眞の間に儿journal articl
Intussuscepção uterina em uma fêmea Canina Shih-Tzu- Relato de caso
No full textA intussuscepção uterina é uma condição rara em pequenos animais e um agravante em partos distócicos em grandes animais. Acredita-se que está relacionado com a alta de estrógeno no período pós-parto, no fim do pro-estro e no estro. O objetivo do presente estudo é relatar um caso de intussuscepção uterina em uma fêmea canina Shih-Tzu, abordando o diagnóstico, a conduta terapêutica, bem como a discussão do relato. Os sintomas da intussuscepção uterina são inespecíficos, podem apresentar secreções sanguinolentas e ou purulenta, não sendo possível diagnosticar com exames complementares, sendo possível apenas com a laparotomia exploratória e seu tratamento mais efetivo e sem recidivas é feito pela ovariossalpingohisterectomia (OSH) e para aquelas que tem interesse na vida reprodutiva de suas fêmeas caninas podem utilizar o azul de metileno a 2% para avaliar a viabilidade do tecido
