This paper argues that the madness of Dostoevsky characters derives from intense wounds to the self: humiliating lacerations that impel fugue and disintegration. Such vulnerable, frangible characters seek to escape and deny themselves to avoid being seen for who they are.

Thermo‐Oxidative Stability of Materials: Assessment and Predictions
The article summarizes long‐term stability predictions based on non‐Arrhenian extrapolation of fast high‐temperature thermoanalytical measurements. The theory is applicable for the lifetime estimation of objects made of plastics and other organic materials which can be employed in the conservation of plastic artifacts.

Foam elastomer dressings in surgery.
A wound dressing prepared from silicone which is catalysed by a gas-producing activatory is described. The resultant foam elastomer is soft, comfortable and easy to prepare, and can be removed, cleaned and reinserted by the patient with minimal instruction and formality. It promises to be a highly cost-effective dressing, with a particularly wide range

ABSTRACT Medicago sativa L. (alfalfa) harbors a remarkably diverse reservoir of bioactive secondary metabolites. Flavonoids, isoflavones, and triterpenoid saponins dominate its bioactivity landscape, driving potent antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, antimicrobial, estrogenic, hypolipidemic, and cytotoxic actions through redox modulation, membrane ...

ABSTRACT Placental‐derived biomaterials are rising in popularity for use in treating severe skin injuries due to their abundant pro‐healing factors which result in improved healing outcomes. Clinical use of human‐derived placental products, however, is limited by high costs, donor availability, and high variability (due to age, health, and genetic ...
