Józef Brudziński’s (1874–1917) contribution to the field of neurology is noteworthy and undeniable. His organizational efforts and research activity have earned him the name of the “father of the Polish paediatrics”. He described the Brudzinski reflex and Brudzinski neck sign. He proved that the symptoms of these conditions were caused by nerve root irritation and elevated CSF pressure. He also described cheek phenomenon and symphyseal sign.

Rating Process

Abstract The AMAGuides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment (AMA Guides), Sixth Edition, does not provide a separate mechanism for rating spinal nerve injuries as extremity impairment; radiculopathy was reflected in the spinal rating process in Chapter 17, The Spine and Pelvis. Certain jurisdictions, such as the Federal Employee Compensation Act (FECA), rate nerve root injury as impairment involving the extremities rather than as part of the spine. This article presents an approach to rate spinal nerve impairments consistent with the AMA Guides, Sixth Edition, methodology. This approach should be used only when a jurisdiction requires ratings for extremities and precludes rating for the spine. A table in this article compares sensory and motor deficits according to the AMA Guides, Sixth and Fifth Editions; evaluators should be aware of changes between editions in methodology used to assign the final impairment. The authors present two tables regarding spinal nerve impairment: one for the upper extremities and one for the lower extremities. Both tables were developed using the methodology defined in the sixth edition. Using these tables and the process defined in the AMA Guides, Sixth Edition, evaluators can rate spinal nerve impairments for jurisdictions that do not permit rating for the spine and require rating for radiculopathy as an extremity impairment.

Action Analysis

The study aims to explain the effect of Jigsaw type cooperative learning on the IPS learning outcomes and howfar the comprehension and mastery of IPS subjects after the implementation of Jigsaw type cooperative learningon the students of class VI of SD Negeri 020 Tembilahan Hilir. This research activity was conducted at SDNegeri 020 Tembilahan Hilir. This research was conducted in October odd semester of academic year2016/2017 with subject of 20 students. The study was conducted in two cycles with qualitative descriptivetechnique. The results of the action analysis show that: First, Jigsaw type cooperative learning has a positiveimpact in improving students 'learning achievement marked by the improvement of students' learning mastery inevery cycle, that is cycle I (60.00%) and cycle II (90.00%). Second, the application of cooperative learning typeJigsaw has a positive influence, which can improve students' learning motivation in IPS learning, it is shown byenthusiastic students who stated that students are interested and interested in cooperative learning type Jigsawso they become motivated to learn. Third, Jigsaw type cooperative learning has a positive impact on cooperationamong students, it is shown that there is a responsibility in groups where students are better able to teach theirless fortunate friends.

The Everyday

Reviewing the literature of nutrition therapy one can conclude that during the last decade the pharmacological action of several nutrients has been demonstrated. However, research activity is still at the beginning and it could be verified in a restricted number of nutrients only that in which conditions (illnesses), dose and duration we can expect therapeutic effect in addition to nutrition. The examples of glutamine, arginine, taurine, leucine, ω-3 fatty acids, however, support the possibility that complex reactions and treatment results observed in certain patients are not purely due to nutritional support but the consequence of additional pharmacological action as well. Evaluation of results of therapeutic intervention is especially difficult because in the everyday practice physicians try to use several therapeutic modalities that can be beneficial for the patient. Therefore, retrospective separation of beneficial components of the therapeutic agents is almost impossible. Only well designed, randomized and multicentric studies can verify specific therapeutic action of certain ingredients ie. nutrients. Orv. Hetil., 2014, 155(51), 2021–2027.
