Visando contribuir para a comunidade científica com uma análise crítica das plataformas de autopublicação, destacando suas limitações e potencialidades no contexto da cadeia de produção do livro, este artigo discute as etapas da cadeia de produção tradicional e sua aplicação no processo de publicação independente, com foco na plataforma Kindle Direct Publishing, da Amazon. Para isso, baseamo-nos na cadeia tradicional apresentada por Thompson (2013) e realizamos uma análise comparativa entre essas etapas e as da produção independente na plataforma mencionada. Metodologicamente, selecionamos e c...

The epileptogenic‐prone (FAST) and epileptogenic‐resistant (SLOW) rat strains have become a valuable tool for investigating neural plasticity. The strains were generated by breeding the rats that required the fewest amygdala stimulations to elicit a stage‐5 convulsive seizure (FAST) and rats requiring the most stimulations (SLOW). Previous studies have shown differences in behavior and amygdala physiology in the two strains. This study examined the dendritic morphology of pyramidal neurons in the brains of adult male and female rats of the two strains. The brains were stained with the Golgi–Co...

This work proposes the first star field image enhancement approach, namely StarDiffusion, based on conditional denoising diffusion probabilistic models (DDPM), and introduces dynamic stochastic corruptions to the inputs of conditional DDPM to improve the performance and generalization of the network on the authors' small-scale dataset.

What has the rise of Amazon meant for the novel? This essay argues that in shifting the scene of innovation from the novel’s form to the ways and means of its distribution, the company has redefined authorship as the entrepreneurial provision of good service to readers and reading itself as a repeatable experience of erotic self-care. Conceived in this way, all fiction is “genre fiction,” including so-called literary fiction, which for Amazon is simply one modality of the perverse pursuit of customer satisfaction among others. As an occasion for felicitous repetition, genre fiction takes the...

Audiogenic kindling is a model of naturally occurring epileptogenesis triggered by repeated sound stimulation of rats genetically prone to audiogenic seizures and progression in rats susceptible and unsusceptible to absence seizures is investigated.

Fire disasters were a major threat to eighteenth-century villages and towns. Following such conflagrations, writers, artists, and publishers were eager to represent the disaster in great detail. Printed poems and pamphlets did not only describe the flames’ destruction, but also put great emphasis on the solidarity during and after the catastrophe. The risks of looting and social disorder were acknowledged by authors, but received little attention overall. Instead, poets and writers focused on acts of care and charity in four phases of fire disaster management: firefighting, immediate relief, c...

In an effort to expand the range of ways graduate programs prepare students to be scholars and practitioners in technical and professional communication, this article argues for a fresh direct reengagement with stories, storytelling, and narrative as valuable ways of studying and effectively producing the varied texts of the workplace. The previous call for acknowledging the value of narrative traces back almost 30 years, and story is still being used in a variety of compelling ways, even as an overt regard for narrative has not been sustained. What may be lacking is a systematic way to transf...

It is suggested that a neural mechanism different from amygdaloid kindling may participate in VC kindling, and that the sub‐cortical structures of the visual system are involved in the preferential pathway for a seizure generalization from the VC.

The facilitation of kindling development and kindled seizures may be due to an excessive excitatory transmission by metaphit in the limbic seizure circuitry.

This study investigates the development of the amygdaloid kindling in rats at ages ranging from 20 days to ca.

Electrical amygdala kindling was facilitated in alcohol-withdrawal kindled animals which showed spontaneous withdrawal seizure activity, compared with animals exposed to multiple episodes of alcohol withdrawal which did not develop withdrawal seizures or with animals exposure to a single episode of alcohol intoxication.

Correcting for Slater’s fallacy removed the appearance of decreasing intermorbid intervals for unipolar depression and proposed an alternative model, which showed individuals who are highly recurrent have consistently shorter interMorbid periods, even after the very first lifetime episode.

Investigators have generated kidney-like organoids - complete with nephrons, collecting ducts, stroma, and vasculature - from induced pluripotent stem cells.

CBD and THC both have antiseizure properties in the amygdala-kindling model, although THC produces suppression of the amygdala focus only at doses that produce hypolocomotion, and the addition of small amounts of THC greatly improves the effectiveness of CBD.

The order in the time courses of the behavioral kindling phenomenon in several species might be presumably concomitant with the order of the secondary epileptogenesis to the contralateral site.

As predicted on this very blog last month Amazon have released a kindle app for the iPhone and here is a look at some of the highlights.

A story of a stray cat who changes the lives of several people for the better when finding homes for her kittens.

In most journalistic accounts of e-books it is hard to distinguish the reality from the hype and boosterism that lend a heady air of eventfulness to the subject. People who are attached to physical books don’t make much news, whereas each uptick in sales of e-books has been reported as another step along the way of an e-book “revolution,” a dissymmetry that can make even committed book lovers worry that the days of books might indeed be numbered. One detects this unease in the way they routinely tend to couch their preference for physical books apologetically, defensively, beginning with discl...

The negative results in (3H)-spiperone binding suggest that changes in the serotonergic receptor in the frontal cortex and D2 receptors in the striatum does not participate the kindled seizure susceptibility.

In designing sensory prosthetic implants that operate on the basis of direct electrical stimulation of the brain, the question of the plasticity of the tissue's response to the stimulation arises.

This hybrid memoir-collage brings together myths and folklore from Iban communities in Sarawak and deep personal loss amid the pandemic that continues to shape and reshape the lives of humans around the world. The stories of death and life, reincarnation and the mingling of the orang-utan and human populations that share life in the Bornean rainforest are teased forth in this creative nonfiction piece. Upon these layers of many truths, hope still kindles and from this flickering light, new life emerges. It seems that the world that is rebuilt from this pandemic still has room for myths and fol...

Findings suggest that Robo1 may modulate seizures by affecting dendritic spine density and morphology and downregulation of Robo1 may negatively regulate epileptogenesis by decreasing the density of dendritic spines and maintaining a greater number of mature dendritic spines.

An optogenetic kindling model through repeated stimulation of ventral hippocampal CaMKII neurons in adult rats is developed and a core of slow-migrating hippocampal activity was identified in both non-kindled and kindled seizures, revealing a novel mechanism of seizure sustainment and propagation.

Overall, the project is going to be a two-story building on the empty space of an urban park while its existence does not break the original park's intention which is providing space for the community to relax and enjoy life. It is a project with its form and function that embodies care for humanity physically and psychologically.
