“your” means “belonging to or associated with the person or people that the speaker is addressing.” it’s o so complicated, the distinction.

I have mentioned it before but will mention it again here. In family therapy there is a term: ‘destructive entitlement’ (coined by Ivan Boszormenyi-Nagy). It is the belief that it is OK to inflict suffering on others if you yourself suffered. This belief is involved, in the context of families, (surprise, surprise) in the mechanisms behind multigenerational transmission of trauma. That’s how trauma is transmitted from one generation in a family to the next. Jewish perception of eternal victimhood and suffering makes it OK to inflict suffering on the Palestinians and never feel any kind of empathy or remorse for it.

When the US declared segregated schools illegal, instead of working for integrated schools, parents choose “religious schools” or private schools which catered to their political views.

The PC plates with stained binding strips were positioned on top of a piece of white paper with printed partial barcodes (the remaining bars of the barcode as seen in Figs 3, 4 and 6) printed and scanned using a freely available barcode scanner36 installed on a Blackberry Q10, Samsung Galaxy S2, and a Nexus 7 tablet, situated 10 cm from the sample. In the second part, the samples were scanned into a computer using a desktop scanner (reflectance) and using Image J, the averaged grayscale intensity of the test lines, control lines, and the background were determined. Using these values, the ODRs were calculated using Eq. 1.

For analysis of cell surface BST-2, HeLa-Vpu cells were treated with IMB-LA or DMSO for 24h. Then the cells were trypsinized and resuspended in flow cytometry buffer (containing 10% fetal bovine serum), and following incubated with anti-BST-2 rabbit antibody in 2% BSA at 4 °C for 1h. The cells were then washed with prechilled PBS containing 2% BSA for 4 times followed by staining with anti-rabbit IgG conjugated with FITC for 30 min, then analyzed on a FACS caliber system (BD biosciences).

Copyright © ERS 2015. Obese asthma is characterised by infiltration of adipose tissue by activated macrophages and mast cells. The aim of this study was to examine the age and sex effects of immunometabolism in obese asthma. Obese and non-obese asthmatic children and adults underwent spirometry, body composition assessment by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry and measurement of serum soluble CD163 (sCD163), tryptase, C-reactive protein (CRP) and other adipocytokines. Plasma CRP (p<0.01) and leptin (p<0.01) were elevated in obese asthmatic adults, and sCD163 (p=0.003) was elevated in obese asthmatic children. We observed significantly higher sCD163 in obese female children compared to obese female adults and male children, and higher CRP in obese female adults compared to obese male children and adults. Serum tryptase concentrations were not significantly different across age groups. sCD163 positively correlated with the proportion of android fat in obese female children (r=0.70, p=0.003) and obese female adults (r=0.65, p=0.003). In obese female children, sCD163 was inversely associated with forced expiratory volume in 1 s % predicted (r=-0.55, p=0.02) and was positively associated with the Asthma Control Questionnaire (r=0.57, p=0.02). Obese children with asthma have sex-specific macrophage activation, which may contribute to worse asthma control and lung function. The heterogeneous systemic inflammatory profile across age and sex suggests the existence of sub-phenotypes in obese asthma at the molecular level.

"My hope is that physicians will recognize that they have to be either very conservative in their screening practice or very conservative in their treatment recommendations, because it is not cost-effective for us to be screening and treating aggressively," she commented.

As part of this project, researchers measured nitric oxide, which is produced by inflamed airways, in the pregnant patient’s exhaled breath. They were then able to adjust the amount of medication according to the severity of the inflammation.
