ABSTRACTGene therapy is being considered as a promising modality for more than two decades now. It has been used for a number of difficult-to-treat conditions and has shown good results in some of the conditions, but not that effective in some others. Overcoming the initially faced hindrances, the research in the field of gene therapy resurged. India is one the major Asian countries where gene therapy-related research and centers have shown remarkable growth, despite certain constraints faced by the researchers. Current article discusses the different types of gene therapy along with its clinical implications and its current status in Indian context.

AbstractThe main aim of this article is to start a discussion of social pattern, a term that is commonly used in sociology but not specified or defined. The key question can be phrased as follows: Is it possible to transform the notion of social pattern from its current status in sociology as a proto-concept into a fully worked out concept? And if so, how can this be done? To provide material for the discussion we begin by introducing a few different types of patterns that are currently being used (patterns in nature, cultural patterns, statistical patterns, and computationally generated patterns). This is followed by a suggestion for what a strictly sociological concept of social pattern may look like. A useful and theoretically solid concept of social pattern can in our view be constructed by basing it on Weber’s concept of social action. This means that both the behavior of the actors and the meaning these invest their behavior with must be taken into account. The article ends with a brief discussion of how to use the concept of social patterns in an effective way and what may endanger such a use.

Background.The oral an perioral piercing has a long history as part of religious, tribal,cultural or sexual symbolism and nowdays there is a high incidence of oral and perioral piercing in the adolescent population. This practice has a long history as part of religious, tribal, cultural or sexual symbolism. This article reviews current knowledge on injuries or diseases that might be produced by piercing in the oral cavity. We propose a classification to diagnosed the pathologies related to oral an perioral piercingMethods.A search was conducted of articles in PubMed, Scielo published between 1997 and 2007, using the key words ``oral and perioral, piercing ´´, ``oral, piercing and disease”, ``recessions and oral piercing´´. It has reviewed about twentythree articles 17 were narrative reviews and 6 case seriesResults.A review was carried out on the origins of oral and perioral body piercing and its local implications, classifying the different alterations like recessions, systemic implications that it can produce in the oral and perioral cavity.Conclusion.Patients with oral and perioral piercing should be regularly followed up because of the possible development of different types of adverse effects.Clinical implications.Adverse effects of oral and perioral piercing can be systemic, with transmission of infectious diseases such as hepatitis B or C, or can be local, with alteration of oral mucosae or even of dental structures.

The need of typewriting skill is ever increasing in our lives. The prevalence of personal computers and mobile devices has transformed the way people communicate with each other. Although many different types of human interfaces have been introduced over the decades, the dominant form of computer interface remains to be that of typing on a keyboard. [...] Whilst typing has become one of the common everyday skills within the last two decades, experimental psychologists have been studying it as a research subject for more than a hundred years. [...] Apart from its practical importance in the modern lifestyle, the act of typing involves the right amount of complexity as well as well-defined and measurable actions. These features of typewriting makes it an ideal testbed to gain our understanding of the control and acquisition of complex skills. This review article first presents a brief overview of the classic studies of typewriting skill in the early 20th century, discusses the developments that took place after the mid-20th century, and concludes with the current status and issues that remain for future investigations in the 21st century.

Aims and MethodThere have been a variety of instruments developed for evaluating family functioning, but no specific measure has emerged as appropriate for routine clinical use. The Family Adaptability and Cohesion Evaluation Scale (FACES) was viewed as a useful tool for a period, but has been less popular of late. This paper looks at its use in families with two very different types of problem to assess its discriminatory ability.ResultsMothers with depression whose children were not showing mental health difficulties reported a very different pattern of family functioning from those whose children were showing chronic school refusal.Clinical ImplicationsThe FACES is capable of discriminating between different patterns of family functioning. Its ease of administration, and the information it provides, should recommend it for wider use in clinical settings.
