At the present time, there is a clearly expressed tendency to examine the activity of the nerves subject to other laws than those that govern the activity of the rest of the body tissues. Since the time of the study of Bernstein, Vvedensky and Bovdich, most of the physiologists speak out for the fatigue of the nerves.

There exists in planarians a time-graded regeneration field for head regeneration (Brøndsted, 1946, 1956; A. & H. V. Brøndsted, 1952). The characteristics of this field, expressed by rate of regeneration, are species-specific. The existence of this field ensures harmonious regeneration from cuts everywhere in the body, as a cut will always expose a ‘high point’ where regeneration of a head starts with greatest speed, thus taking the lead in organization and at the same time inhibiting head-forming tendencies elsewhere in the blastema (Brøndsted, 1956). The factors underlying these characteristics of the field are unknown; the problems involved are being attacked from several angles in our laboratory. For the sake of this work it is of some interest to know how the different rates of regeneration at various levels in the time-graded fields might be influenced by various temperature levels. Material and Methods The experiments were carried out on two species differing greatly in the characteristics of their time-graded regeneration fields.

The nonlinear dynamics of a three degree of freedom autoparametric system with two pendulums connected by SMA (Shape Memory Alloys) spring in the neighborhood internal and external resonance is presented in this works. The system consists of the body of mass m1 which is hung on a spring and a damper, and two connected by SMA spring pendulums of the length 1 and masses m2 and m3 mounted to the body of mass m1. It is assumed, that the motion of the pendulums are damped by resistive forces. Shape memory alloys have ability to change their material properties, for example stiffness. The equations of motion have been solved numerically and there was studied the influence of temperature on the energy transfer between modes of vibrations. Solutions for the system response are presented for specific values of the parameters of system. It was shown that in this type system one mode of vibrations may excite or damp another mode, and that except different kinds of periodic vibrations there may also appear chaotic vibrations. It depends on various amplitudes of excitation, frequencies ratio and different system parameters. Also fundamental is the influence of temperature on response of the system. For the identification of the responses of the system various techniques, including chaos techniques such as bifurcation diagrams and time histories, power spectral densities (FFT), Poincare` maps and exponents of Lyapunov may be use.

No development of the egg within the female Damalinia equi (Denny) occurred at 16�C. Most eggs were laid at 36�C at R.H.'s of 75% or less, but after an exposure to 44.5�C for only 1 hr females did not lay eggs. Morphogenesis proceeded to an advanced state from 27-39�C, but its completion and the subsequent hatching of the embryo only took place from 31-39�C provided the R.H. was less than 90%. A R.H. of 90% prevented hatching of the eggs. Exposure of eggs to 49�C for 2 hr was lethal. The skin temperature of the horse is influenced considerably by atmospheric temperature. The abundance of D. equi on the bodies of horses in early spring is probably due to the temperatures near the skin of the body being continuously favourable for reproduction of D. equi during the winter. Exposure to the sun can cause the temperatures within the hair coat on the upper aspects of the body to become higher than 44.5�C for more than an hour and thus can retard reproduction. The accumulative effect of repeated high temperatures could prevent an increase in the numbers of D. equi during the summer.

Temperature affects both elastic and inelastic scattering of electrons in a crystal. The Debye-Waller factor, B, describes the influence of temperature on the elastic scattering of electrons, whereas the imaginary part of the (complex) atomic form factor, fc = fr + ifi, describes the influence of temperature on the inelastic scattering of electrons (i.e. absorption). In HRTEM simulations, two possible ways to include absorption are: (i) an approximate method in which absorption is described by a phenomenological constant, μ, i.e. fi; - μfr, with the real part of the atomic form factor, fr, obtained from Hartree-Fock calculations, (ii) a more accurate method in which the absorptive components, fi of the atomic form factor are explicitly calculated. In this contribution, the inclusion of both the Debye-Waller factor and absorption on HRTEM images of a (Oll)-oriented GaAs crystal are presented (using the EMS software.Fig. 1 shows the the amplitudes and phases of the dominant 111 beams as a function of the specimen thickness, t, for the cases when μ = 0 (i.e. no absorption, solid line) and μ = 0.1 (with absorption, dashed line).

Studi memperkirakan emesis gravidarum terjadi pada 50-90% kehamilan. Mual muntah pada kehamilan memberikan dampak yang signifikan bagi tubuh dimana ibu menjadi lemah, pucat dan cairan tubuh berkurang sehingga darah menjadi kental (hemokonsentrasi). Keadaan ini dapat memperlambat peredaran darah dan berakibat pada kurangnya suplay oksigen serta makanan ke jaringan sehingga dapat membahayakan kesehatan ibu dan janin. Salah satu terapi yang aman dan dapat dilakukan untuk mengurangi keluahan mual muntah pada ibu hamil adalah pemberian aromaterapi lemon. Penelitian bertujuan untuk mengetahui efektifitas aroma terapi lemon untuk menangani emesis gravidarum. Penelitian ini menggunakan rancangan Quasi experiment  dengan  one group pre-post test design. Populasi penelitian adalah ibu hamil yang mengalami emesis gravidarum di Kecamatan Berbah, Sleman. Jumlah sampel 20 ibu hamil trimester pertama yang diambil dengan teknik purposive sampling. Pengukuran mual muntah dilakukan debelum dan setelah  pemberian aromaterapi lemon menggunakan Indeks Rhodes. Analisa data menggunakan uji Paired t-test. Hasil penelitian didapatkan rata-rata skor mual muntah sebelum pemberian aromaterapi lemon berdasarkan Indeks Rhodes pada Ibu Hamil dengan emesis gravidarum yaitu 22,1 dan terjadi penurunan skor setelah pemberian aromaterapi lemon menjadi 19,8. Ada pengaruh pemberian aromaterapi lemon dengan pengurangan mual muntah pada ibu hamil (p-value = 0.017). Berdasarkan hasil penelitian dapat disimpulkan pemberian aromaterapi lemon efektif untuk mengurangi emesis gravidarum pada ibu hamil trimester pertama.  Kata kunci: aromaterapi lemon, emesis gravidarum THE EFFECTIVENESS OF LEMON AROMATHERAPY FOR HANDLING EMESIS GRAVIDARUM   ABSTRACT Studies estimate that nausea and vomiting (emesis gravidarum) occur in 50 – 90% of pregnancies. Nausea and vomiting of pregnancy have a significant impact on the body in which it makes a mother becomes weak, pale, and decreasing body fluid so that the blood becomes thick (hemoconcentration). This situation can slow down blood circulation and inflict the lack of oxygen and food supplies to the body tissues so that it can endanger the health of the mother and fetus. One of the therapies that is safe and can be conducted to reduce nausea and vomiting of pregnancy is by giving the lemon aromatherapy treatment. The research aims to determine the effectiveness of the aroma of lemon therapy to deal with emesis gravidarum. This study applied quasi-experimental research with one group pretest-posttest design. The population of this study was pregnant women who experienced emesis gravidarum. Furthermore, samples were 20 mothers from Berbah, Sleman taken by using a purposive sampling technique. Nausea and vomiting were assessed between before and after giving lemon aromatherapy using the Rhodes Index. The data were analyzed using the paired t-test. The mean score of nausea and vomiting before giving lemon aromatherapy on mother with emesis gravidarum based on the Rhodes Index was 22.1. However, it decreased after given lemon aromatherapy treatment to 19.8. Therefore, there was an effect on giving lemon aromatherapy treatment toward the decrease of nausea and vomiting for pregnant women (p-value = 0.017). Lemon aromatherapy is effective to reduce emesis gravidarum.  Keywords: lemon aromatherapy, emesis gravidarum

Introduction. An osteopathic examination determines the rate, the amplitude and the strength of the main rhythms (cardiac, respiratory and cranial). However, there are relatively few studies in the available literature dedicated to the influence of osteopathic correction (OC) on the characteristics of these rhythms.Goal of research — to study the influence of OC on the rate characteristics of various rhythms of the human body.Materials and methods. 88 adult osteopathic patients aged from 18 to 81 years were examined, among them 30 men and 58 women. All patients received general osteopathic examination. The rate of the cranial rhythm (RCR), respiratory rate (RR) heart rate (HR), the mobility of the nervous processes (MNP) and the connective tissue mobility (CTM) were assessed before and after the OC session.Results. Since age varied greatly in the examined group, a correlation analysis of age-related changes of the assessed rhythms was carried out. Only the CTM correlated with age (r=–0,28; p<0,05) in a statistically significant way. The rank dispersion analysis of Kruskal–Wallis also showed statistically significant difference in this indicator in different age groups (p=0,043). With the increase of years, the CTM decreases gradually. After the OC, the CTM, increased in a statistically significant way (p<0,0001). The RCR varied from 5 to 12 cycles/min in the examined group, which corresponded to the norm. After the OC, the RCR has increased in a statistically significant way (p<0,0001), the MNP has also increased (p<0,0001). The initial heart rate in the subjects varied from 56 to 94 beats/min, and in 15 % it exceeded the norm. After the OC the heart rate corresponded to the norm in all patients. The heart rate and the respiratory rate significantly decreased after the OC (р<0,0001).Conclusion. The described biorhythm changes after the OC session may be indicative of the improvement of the nervous regulation, of the normalization of the autonomic balance, of the improvement of the biomechanical properties of body tissues and of the increase of their mobility. The assessed parameters can be measured quickly without any additional equipment and can be used in order to study the results of the OC.
