Introduced in 1933, Sakel's pharmacological shock treatment [Sakel (1935a,1935b,1938)] is now regarded as a valuable method of treatment in schizophrenia. The complications which may ensue during the treatment are, however, both numerous and dangerous, and may be classified according to the system predominantly affected as follows:(1)The Respiratory System.(2)The Cardiovascular System.(3)The Nervous System.

Multipolar Neuron

The nervous system of all vertebrates is built up of long conducting, specialized cells, termed neurons. In order to function, these neurons, or nerve-cells, must be linked together in chains or arcs. Each neuron in the chain or arc is structurally separated from other neurons by a break termed a synapse. The structural elements of a neuronic arc are, therefore, as follows: 1.A sensitive receiving organ—the receptor or sense-organ.2.A centrally conducting receptor bipolar neuron.3.One or more short connector or internuncial neurons.4.A peripherally conducting effector multipolar neuron.5.An effector apparatus—for example, a muscle or a gland.

IN a previous paper (Bullock, Clancey and Fleischhacker, 1951) an attempt was made to separate schizophrenic reaction syndromes, due to diagnosable and often successfully treatable disease of known etiology, from idiopathic or cryptogenic schizophrenia. It was shown that the criteria of idiopathic schizophrenia are—(1)Positivey : (a) Mentally, the classical symptoms of inadequacy and inappropriateness : of thought (paralogia), of affect (parapathema), to which one may add of volition (paraboulema), usually accompanied by hallucinations, paranoid ideas, etc.(b) Physically, a slightly pathological C.S.F., due essentially to an increase of the globulin fraction.(2)Negalively : the absence of generally acknowledged organic disease of the brain, or any physical disease which is known to produce such disorders of the central nervous system or the C.S.F., as mentioned under (i).

Two conditions greatly encourage the folk use of plants to cure diseases and alleviate ailments: ∘ plant biodiversity (the richer the better)∘ particular cultural traits of local populations.Where these conditions are met, local scientific advancement may result from experimentation with and elaboration of folk remedies. Unfortunately, little scientific research has been done on South American plants that may be useful in the treatment of central nervous system (CNS) disturbances.

Main Components

The use of physiological signals is relatively recent development in human emotion recognition. Interest in this field has been motivated by the unbiased nature of such signals, which are generated autonomously from the central nervous system. Generally, these signals can be collected from the cardiovascular system, respiratory system, electrodermal activities, muscular system and brain activities. This paper presents an overview of emotion recognition using physiological signals. The main components of a physiological signals-based emotion recognirion system are explained, including discussion regarding the concepts and problems about the various stages involved in its framework.

Insight Into

<p>In the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic when we were still getting used to the rising cases every day and limited resources to deal them with, the focus was to get a hold of the situation as quickly as possible. Seven months into the pandemic, the cases are still on the rise but we have gathered some knowledge through the researches getting published every day, most of which are focused on the involvement of respiratory system, cardiovascular system, central nervous system, and gastrointestinal system. Dermatological manifestations have not been given their due importance. Lately, many patients have started presenting with dermatological manifestation sometimes preceding or sometimes during COVID-19 infection with or without involvement of other systems. This may be beneficial to clinicians all over the world, to determine potential dermatological signs in COVID-19 and also help in earlier suspection of the COVID-19 infection. Many cutaneous adverse drug reactions (ADR) to drugs advocated in COVID-19 treatment are also being reported every day, which are discussed in this review.</p><p>Here we attempt to review dermatological manifestations of COVID-19 infections and drug reactions by the drugs advocated for its treatment and an understanding in its path mechanisms reported thus far. This will help clinicians to get an insight into what to expect and when to expect in terms of dermatological manifestation of COVID-19 and its drugs.</p>

AbstractThis paper deals with a possibility to use the ground-based method of observation in order to solve basic problems connected with the solar corona research. Namely:1.heating of the solar corona2.course of the global cycle in the corona3.rotation of the solar corona and development of active regions.There is stressed a possibility of high-time resolution of the coronal line photometer at Lomnický Peak coronal station, and use of the latter to obtain crucial observations.

AbstractThe occurrence of LDE-type flares in the last three cycles has been investigated. The Fourier analysis spectrum was calculated for the time series of the LDE-type flare occurrence during the 20-th, the 21-st and the rising part of the 22-nd cycle. LDE-type flares (Long Duration Events in SXR) are associated with the interplanetary protons (SEP and STIP as well), energized coronal archs and radio type IV emission. Generally, in all the cycles considered, LDE-type flares mainly originated during a 6-year interval of the respective cycle (2 years before and 4 years after the sunspot cycle maximum). The following significant periodicities were found:• in the 20-th cycle: 1.4, 2.1, 2.9, 4.0, 10.7 and 54.2 of month,• in the 21-st cycle: 1.2, 1.6, 2.8, 4.9, 7.8 and 44.5 of month,• in the 22-nd cycle, till March 1992: 1.4, 1.8, 2.4, 7.2, 8.7, 11.8 and 29.1 of month,• in all interval (1969-1992):a)the longer periodicities: 232.1, 121.1 (the dominant at 10.1 of year), 80.7, 61.9 and 25.6 of month,b)the shorter periodicities: 4.7, 5.0, 6.8, 7.9, 9.1, 15.8 and 20.4 of month.Fourier analysis of the LDE-type flare index (FI) yields significant peaks at 2.3 - 2.9 months and 4.2 - 4.9 months. These short periodicities correspond remarkably in the all three last solar cycles. The larger periodicities are different in respective cycles.
