This article offers a brief analysis of the main prerequisites of the emergence of nonlinear architecture. It is shown why conceptions, which only few decades ago seemed fantastic, are being realized in the projects of modern architects today. The influence of different cultural, scientific, social and economic factors is considered. It is proved that a certain artistic idea always underlies nonlinear forms which seem random and its design is realized basing on precise mathematical calculation. It is confirmed that the phenomenon of nonlinear architecture must be considered preeminently as a complex phenomenon. It is shown that ideas from the different and often unrelated areas of knowledge are melted in a «melting-pot» of nonlinear architecture. It is proved that analysis of prerequisites of development and multidisciplinary approach to the research of nonlinear architecture will allow us to predict a vector of possible development of this style

At the height of its development and up to the eighteenth century, the Spanish classical theatre significantly contributed to the formation of the modern European theatre. Theatre texts and theatrical companies were in fact circulating outside the Iberian peninsula and the Spanish experience of theatre triggered literary debates and reflections that played a central role to the cultural history of Europe, from Neoclassicism to the beginnings of Romanticism. It is a complex phenomenon crossing linguistically and culturally diversified territories, and which therefore needs an inter- and multidisciplinary approach. We tried to respond to this need by involving scholars and researchers in the fields of Hispanic, French, Italian, history of entertainment and musicology for the drafting of this volume.

At the global level, drug use and trafficking are a dynamic phenomenon, being strongly influenced by a multitude of social and economic factors. and in Romania, drug use and trafficking present new forms of manifestation, requiring increasingly varied approaches, being known as a complex phenomenon, characterized by permanent mutations. If, some twenty years ago, Romania was known as a state where only drugs were transited, in the last ten years, our country has been transformed into a market for drug use, especially heroin. Even though our country is below the European average for drug use, the latest studies conducted by the National Drug Agency indicate a lifetime prevalence of 4.3% for any type of drug in the general population, while among the population for 16-year-old students, this type of prevalence stands at 10%, which shows significant increases in drug use in Romania, at the level of the entire population, but especially among the young.

The Silk Road

The Eurasian trade route was more than 6,000 kilometers long and split into several sub-strands and has a long history. Now all of these routes have been revived. With a corresponding expansion of the infrastructure, certain circumstances are still challenging in the 21st century: nationalism, especially among the former Soviet states, security in times of global terror, and economic competition. The Central Asian region is a melting pot of different ethnic groups, in ancient, as well as more recent, history, sometimes with more harmonious coexistence, and sometimes with more conflicts that influence politics and social background. The author traveled through the individual states, examined the ecological-economic factors and conducted interviews to clarify socio-political views. This paper examines the implications regarding economy and politics, the cultural background, and to where it refers.

Background:Pain is a complex phenomenon that implies pathophysiological processes and psychosocial components. A 56-year-old female patient complaining of pain and presenting with multiple mild physical signs was examined by a multidisciplinary team from the Ear-Nose-Throat, Dermatology, Hematology, General Clinics, and Psychiatry and Psychology Departments.Objective:To present a significant case where pain is primarily caused by psychological conflicts.Method:A multidisciplinary approach, with medical and psychological interventions.Results:The patient was deeply convinced; she had been contaminated by leprosy. Her enrooted personal beliefs, including religion and moral conflicts, seem to be the primary cause for her putative ‘disease’, a condition that was not confirmed by exhaustive exams.Conclusion:Pain normally is related to several factors, including biological, psychological and cultural. Some complex cases should be investigated by a multidisciplinary team of specialists, in order to identify extra-physiological components.

In this paper I intend to address the issue of crypto-Catholicism in the early Ottoman Balkans, a complex phenomenon which has drawn historians’ attention over the decades. More specifically, I will attempt to define and clarify the difficult and unresolved issue, taking into account the characteristics of the Balkans where many religious and social groups co-existed. That produced interaction and enmeshment between the various religions and, as a result, identities developed specific distinctive traits and often overlapped. Within that unique Balkan environment – a real confessional melting pot – crypto-Christianity naturally arose. Crypto-Catholics or Orthodoxies, living under Ottoman rule, publicly decided to embrace the Islamic religion but secretly identified themselves as Christians. I have set out to investigate this phenomenon by considering letters and reports produced by Catholic missions involved in the Balkan peninsula.

La radicalización violenta es un fenómeno complejo que debe ser explicado a través de un enfoque multidisciplinar. El objetivo de este artículo es explicar cómo y por qué se ha producido la radicalización violenta de 22 mujeres en España tras la irrupción de Daesh en el panorama internacional. Para logarlo, el estudio analiza los factores sociopolíticos que conducen a un individuo a abrazar la militancia islámica a través de tres niveles: macro, micro y meso. La investigación se sustenta en entrevistas a mujeres que han sido detenidas por integración en dicha organización terrorista, así como en un sumario y resoluciones de la Audiencia Nacional.Violent radicalization is a complex phenomenon that must be explained through a multidisciplinary approach. The aim of this article is to explain how 22 women in Spain became radicalised. To achieve this, the study analyses the socio-political factors that lead an individual to get involved with the Islamic militancy through three levels: macro, micro and meso. The research is supported by interviews with females in Spain who were convicted of terrorist offences and experts in the field; by judgement and indictments ordered by the Audiencia Nacional.

The protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica is the causative agent of amebiasis in man. The trophozoite or motile form is a highly dynamic and pleomorphic cell with a great capacity to destroy tissues. Moreover, the parasite has the singular ability to phagocytize a variety of different live or death cells. Phagocytosis of red blood cells by E. histolytica trophozoites is a complex phenomenon related with amebic pathogenicity and nutrition.

Individuals with Rett syndrome (RS) present with a complex profile. They benefit from a multidisciplinary approach for diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up. In our clinic, the Communication Matrix © (Rowland, 1990/1996/2004) is used to collect data about the communication skills and modalities used by those with RS across the lifespan. Preliminary analysis of this data supports the expected changes in communication behaviors as the individual with RS ages and motor deficits have a greater impact.

The Moment

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a serious epidemic in the United States. It affects patients of all ages, race, and socioeconomic status (SES). The current care of these patients typically manifests after sequelae have been identified after discharge from the hospital, long after the inciting event. The purpose of this article is to introduce the concept of identification and management of the TBI patient from the moment of injury through long-term care as a multidisciplinary approach. By promoting an awareness of the issues that develop around the acutely injured brain and linking them to long-term outcomes, the trauma team can initiate care early to alter the effect on the patient, family, and community. Hopefully, by describing the care afforded at a trauma center and by a multidisciplinary team, we can bring a better understanding to the armamentarium of methods utilized to treat the difficult population of TBI patients.
