    Russell–Silver syndrome presenting as early asymmetric IUGR

    No full text
    We report a case of severe intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) which was diagnosed as Russell–Silver syndrome (RSS) postnatally. RSS (also known as Silver–Russell syndrome) is one of more than 300 recognised forms of genetic disorder that leads to short stature. Uniparental disomy for chromosome 7 (UPD7), i.e. inheriting two copies of chromosome 7 from the mother, and a change in methylation pattern (biochemical silencing of gene expression) of chromosome 11 are the most frequently associated chromosomal defects. A wide spectrum of appearances and symptoms are associated with the condition. Most characteristics are not easily identifiable with prenatal diagnostic ultrasound. The symptom most likely to be detected sonographically is IUGR. This case seeks to raise awareness of RSS, and encourages clinicians to consider uncommon genetic disorders such as RSS as a possible cause of early asymmetric IUGR.

    Justification of Induction: Russell and Jin Yuelin. A Comparative Study

    No full text
    Jin Yuelin (1895-1984), a Chinese logician and philosopher, is greatly influenced by Hume&apos;s and Russell&apos;s philosophies. How should we respond to Hume&apos;s problem of induction? This is an important clue to understand Jin&apos;s whole philosophical career. The first section of this paper gives a brief historical review of Russell and Jin. The second section outlines Hume&apos;s skeptical arguments against causality and induction. The third section expounds Russell&apos;s justification of induction by discussing his views on Hume&apos;s skepticism, causality, principle of induction, and empirical postulates. The fourth section clarifies Jin&apos;s justification of induction by discussing his critique of Hume&apos;s epistemology and his arguments for the reliability of causality and the eternal truth and apriority of the principle of induction. The final section compares Jin&apos;s justification of induction with Russell&apos;s and concludes that there are similarities and differences between their projects and that both their attempts fail. This paper takes the similar responses to the problem of induction by Jin and Russell to demonstrate the communication that there has been between Chinese philosophers and the Western ones.http://gateway.webofknowledge.com/gateway/Gateway.cgi?GWVersion=2&SrcApp=PARTNER_APP&SrcAuth=LinksAMR&KeyUT=WOS:000310146900004&DestLinkType=FullRecord&DestApp=ALL_WOS&UsrCustomerID=8e1609b174ce4e31116a60747a720701EthicsHistory &amp; Philosophy Of ScienceLogicPhilosophyA&HCISCI(E)0ARTICLE4353-3783

    Political visions : George Russell, 1913-1930

    No full text
    THESIS 6067George Russell, poet and author, was a contemporary of W. B. Yeats and a figure central to the Irish Literary Revival. My thesis concentrates on his editorship of two journals, the Irish Homestead and the Irish Statesman, in the turbulent period between 1913 and 1930. I argue that Russell?s journalism enjoyed a cultural agency previously under-acknowledged by critics. Russell is now perceived to have been an eccentric, with mystical interests subsidiary to the main course of Irish nationalism. I contend rather that Russell was the central theorist of an Irish cultural doctrine subsequently obscured by post-Civil War political change. Russell\u27s periodical contributions were expressions of his commitment to an esoteric principle of Irish statehood, anathema to an increasingly orthodox Free State

    Dissertação (mestrado)—Universidade de Brasília, Instituto de Humanidades, Departamento de Filosofia, Programa de Pós-Gradução, 2007.Esta dissertação faz um apanhado da literatura sobre a teoria das descrições definidas de Russell entre, aproximadamente, 1950 e 2005. Ele reúne vários argumentos em favor da teoria e vários argumentos contra ela. Na primeira parte, examina-se de que forma a teoria de Russell é capaz de acomodar o uso referencial de descrições definidas. Na segunda parte, examina-se como ela lida com descrições definidas incompletas. O autor do presente trabalho acredita que a teoria russelliana não foi refutada e que a maior parte das críticas (mas, não todas) encontra-se devidamente respondida. __________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACTThis essay is a survey of the literature on Russell´s theory of definite descriptions from 1950 to 2005 approximately.
