Mathematics, Logic, and their Philosophies:Essays in Honour of Mohammad Ardeshir
No full textThis volume is a collection of essays in honour of Professor Mohammad Ardeshir. It examines topics which, in one way or another, are connected to the various aspects of his multidisciplinary research interests. Based on this criterion, the book is divided into three general categories. The first category includes papers on non-classical logics, including intuitionistic logic, constructive logic, basic logic, and substructural logic. The second category is made up of papers discussing issues in the contemporary philosophy of mathematics and logic. The third category contains papers on Avicenna’s logic and philosophy.Mohammad Ardeshir is a full professor of mathematical logic at the Department of Mathematical Sciences, Sharif University of Technology, Tehran, Iran, where he has taught generations of students for around a quarter century. Mohammad Ardeshir is known in the first place for his prominent works in basic logic and constructive mathematics. His areas of interest are however much broader and include topics in intuitionistic philosophy of mathematics and Arabic philosophy of logic and mathematics. In addition to numerous research articles in leading international journals, Ardeshir is the author of a highly praised Persian textbook in mathematical logic. Partly through his writings and translations, the school of mathematical intuitionism was introduced to the Iranian academic community

DNA damage repair response in mesenchymal stromal cells: From cellular senescence and aging to apoptosis and differentiation ability
No full textMesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are heterogeneous and contain several populations, including stem cells. MSCs' secretome has the ability to induce proliferation, differentiation, chemo-attraction, anti-apoptosis, and immunomodulation activities in stem cells. Moreover, these cells recognize tissue damage caused by drugs, radiation (e.g., Ultraviolet, infra-red) and oxidative stress, and respond in two ways: either MSCs differentiate into particular cell lineages to preserve tissue homeostasis, or they release a regenerative secretome to activate tissue repairing mechanisms. The maintenance of MSCs in quiescence can increase the incidence and accumulation of various forms of genomic modifications, particularly upon environmental insults. Thus, dysregulated DNA repair pathways can predispose MSCs to senescence or apoptosis, reducing their stemness and self-renewal properties. For instance, DNA damage can impair telomere replication, activating DNA damage checkpoints to maintain MSC function. In this review, we aim to summarize the role of DNA damage and associated repair responses in MSC senescence, differentiation and programmed cell death.There were no funding resources for the current study.Kahroba, H; Sadeghi, MR (corresponding author), Tabriz Univ Med Sci, Fac Adv Med Sci, Dept Mol Med, Tabriz, Iran.

'Fatherless' of Mohammad Mosavat: The cultural event of the Iranian spring
No full textThe following is a psychoanalytic commentary about a play recently performed in Tehran (Iran) followed by an interview with its author, Mohammad Mosavat. The co-signatories both attended a performance of this play. Invited by Shahid Behesti, Alzahra, and Shiraz Universities for many public lectures and supervisions, the French psychoanalyst Jean-Luc Vannier signs the commentary while the interview and the translation were conducted by the Iranian psychoanalyst in training at the Freudian Group of Tehran, Mahyar Ali Naghi
Antibiotic therapy for pan-drug-resistant infections
No full textAntibiotic resistance occurs when microorganisms resist the drugs used against the infection caused by them and neutralize their effects over time using various mechanisms. These mechanisms include preventing drug absorption, changing drug targets, drug inactivating, and using efflux pumps, which ultimately cause drug resistance, which is named pan-drug-resistant (PDR) infection if it is resistant to all antimicrobial agents. This type of drug resistance causes many problems in society and faces the health system with difficulties; therefore their treatment is crucial and encourages doctors to develop new drugs to treat them. PDR Gram-negative bacteria, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter baumannii, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Escherichia coli are among the most significant resistant bacteria to many antimicrobial agents, and only a limited range of antibiotics, especially synergistically are effective on them. For the therapy of PDR A. baumannii, tigecycline in combination with colestimethate, imipenem, amikacin, and ampicillin-sulbactam are the most effective treatments. The utilization of β-lactamase inhibitors such as ceftolozane-tazobactam, ceftazidime-avibactam, or imipenem-cilastatin-relebactam has the most efficacy against PDR P. aeruginosa. The PDR K. pneumoniae has been treated in the last decades with tigecycline and colistin, but currently, nitrofurantoin, fosfomycin, and pivmecillinam seem to be the most effective agent for the therapy of PDR E. coli. While these drugs impressively struggle with PDR pathogens, due to the daily increase in antibiotic resistance in microorganisms worldwide, there is still an urgent need for the expansion of novel medicines and methods of combating resistance

RoMEO Studies 4: An analysis of Journal publishers' Copyright Agreements
No full textThis article is the fourth in a series of six emanating from the UK JISC-funded RoMEO Project (Rights Metadata for Open archiving). It describes an analysis of 80 scholarly journal publishers’ copyright agreements with a particular view to their effect on author self-archiving. 90% of agreements asked for copyright transfer and 69% asked for it prior to refereeing the paper. 75% asked authors to warrant that their work had not been previously published although only two explicitly stated that they viewed self-archiving as prior publication. 28.5% of agreements provided authors with no usage rights over their own paper. Although 42.5% allowed self-archiving in some format, there was no consensus on the conditions under which self-archiving could take place. The article concludes that author-publisher copyright agreements should be reconsidered by a working party representing the needs of both partie
