The large intestine, like all other organs of plant life, receives nerves of two kinds, belonging to the sympathetic and autonomic nervous systems. The first includes item n. hypogastrici with n. n. mesenterici inferiores, to the second n. n. erigentes (Eckhard) or Langley'io pelvici. The sympathetic nerves of the intestine depart from the nerve node g. meseutericum inferius, located on the anterior surface of the abdominal aorta at the point of departure of the lower mesenteric artery; n. erigens usually (in dogs) originates from the 1st, 2nd and 3rd sacral nerves and, before reaching the large intestine, enters the nerve plexus located on the sides of the pelvic floor - plexus hypogastricus, into which it enters and also takes part in its formation a pair of sympathetic nerves - n. n. hypogastrici.

An isolated preparation of the dog's mesenteric artery with branching small resistance vessels and sympathetic nerves attached has been devised. The branching arterial segments were perfused by a constant-flow technique; the pressor responses to intra-arterially injected catecholamine and to nerve stimulation were recorded. The preparation gave reproducible pressor responses to injected catecholamine and to nerve stimulation for periods of several hours. Decreasing the temperature or increasing the pH (by decreasing CO2 in the gas mixture) of the vessel bath increased arterial smooth muscle tone and potentiated the pressor responses to injected catecholamine and to nerve stimulation. Increasing the temperature of the bath decreased the tone and reactivity of this preparation. Low-frequency continuous nerve stimulation potentiated the responses of this preparation to intra-arterially injected catecholamines.

The Singaporean company TheatreWorks, under the artistic direction of Ong Keng Sen, has been responsible for the creation of a number of large-scale Asian intercultural works that have toured to international festivals from Adelaide to Hamburg. Among the best known of these are Lear and Desdemona, both of which use Shakespeare as a point of departure for new performance pieces that bring together practitioners representing a wide range of traditional and contemporary art forms. Unlike other intercultural experiments, in Lear and Desdemona practitioners stay largely within the frame of their own performance and linguistic traditions, creating a work which, especially in the case of Desdemona, is far from seamless. Using the 2000 production of Desdemona as an object of inquiry, this model of Asian intercultural production is examined against the backdrop of the politics of one's location, the troubled audience response to the work in Singapore and Adelaide, and the current state of intercultural theory.

This review presents modern information on etiopathogenesis, clinic, diagnostics and treatment of diverticular disease of the large intestine (DBTK). Based on the analysis and epidemiological data, this pathology can be attributed to the global epidemic of the 21st century, associated with the Westernization of lifestyle and aging of the population in civilized countries. The described tactics of management of patients with this pathology is based on global trends that have formed in the last decade.

The inhibitory action of perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) in modulation of arterial contraction has been recently recognized and contrasted with the prohypertensive effect of obesity in humans. In this study we demonstrated that PVAT might have opposing effect on sympatho-adrenergic contractions in different rat conduit arteries. In superior mesenteric artery isolated from normotensive Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY), PVAT exhibited inhibitory influence on the contractions to exogenous noradrenaline as well as to endogenous noradrenaline released from arterial sympathetic nerves during transmural electrical stimulation or after application of tyramine. In contrast, the abdominal aorta with intact PVAT responded with larger contractions to transmural electrical stimulation and tyramine when compared to the aorta after removing PVAT; the responses to noradrenaline were similar in both. This indicates that PVAT may contain additional sources of endogenous noradrenaline which could be responsible for the main difference in the modulatory effect of PVAT on adrenergic contractions between abdominal aortas and superior mesenteric arteries. In spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), the anticontractile effect of PVAT in mesenteric arteries was reduced, and the removal of PVAT completely eliminated the difference in the dose-response curves to exogenous noradrenaline between SHR and WKY. These results suggest that in mesenteric artery isolated from SHR, the impaired anticontractile influence of PVAT might significantly contribute to its increased sensitivity to adrenergic stimuli.

While operating on a strangulated scrotal hernia 20 years ago, the author ran into a whole series of difficulties. First of all, because of the infringement in the upper part of the hernial sac, the intestine could not be removed from the scrotum, which required cutting it along the anterior surface. The contents of the hernia turned out to be about an arshin of the small intestine with thickened walls and a significantly thickened (up to x / 2 vershok) mesentery, obviously due to constant venous stasis. The infringement did not affect the small intestine. Together with the ileum in the hernia, the coecum with the appendix and the ascending part of the large intestine were found.

The aspects of the political leadership in South Africa discussed in this article include, among others, abuse of power, corruption and lack of public accountability. In response to these aspects, the article demonstrates that servant leadership is an urgent style for the current state of political leadership in South Africa. The article discusses key aspects of the current political leadership in South Africa as a point of departure. The article also discusses the theological foundation and key principles of servant leadership in order to apply them to the current state of political leadership in South AfricaIntradisciplinary and/or interdisciplinary implications: Servant leadership principles as outlined from a theological point of view are applied to the aspects of political leadership in South Africa.

This project is an attempt at bringing new perspectives and work methods to the performance of lute songs. My point of departure is Historically Informed Performance, also known as HIP. My claim is that the performance of lute songs is lagging behind the general development in HIP. Moreover, I feel that there are aspects of the performance of music that HIP in general has been reluctant to consider. I want to update the approach to the lute song repertoire, hoping to produce a result that is more varied, nuanced and communicative than what I see as the current state of lute song performance.

If all authors agree that the direct cause of prolapse of the genitals in a woman is increased intra-abdominal pressure, then regarding the anatomical moments contributing to the occurrence of this anomaly, the opinions of the authors differ sharply: some attribute here an important role to innate moments, which may be - spina bifida lumbo -sacralis, in which there is a paralysis of the sacral nerves innervating the pelvic floor, then congenital hypoplasia of the pelvic floor muscles, excessive depth of the posterior Doug-Jas'ova pocket, observed in infantilism and accompanied by a very low position of the levator'a ani, etc .; others see the main reason for prolapse in acquired relaxations and violations of the integrity of the musculo-fascial base of the pelvic floor, especially the levator'a ani and the urogenital diaphragm; still others, considering the prolapse as a hernia, see the main predisposing reason for its development in the excessive width of the hiatus genitalis; fourth, on the basis of the fact that prolapse of the uterus, especially complete, is observed mainly in old women, in the first place among the etiological moments leading to prolapse, put climacteric changes in the ligamentous apparatus of the uterus, walls of the genital canal, etc.; fifths put forward retroflection of the uterus as an important etiological moment of prolapse, sixth - insufficiency of parametric, paravaginal and especially paravesical tissue, which failure is sometimes the result of poor nutrition, hard work, etc., moments that cause the disappearance of adipose tissue, altering the elasticity of the muscle-fascial septum pelvic floor, etc.

Abstract Introduction: The Barbados Black Belly is a breed of domestic sheep in the Caribbean island of Trinidad. Anatomical studies on the cranial and caudal mesenteric arteries are necessary to know the pattern of its blood supply to gain information in benefit of experimental surgery. Materials and Methods: The thoracic part of the aorta of five sheep was injected with red latex. Careful gross dissection of the cranial and caudal mesenteric arteries was performed either after embedding in 10% formalin solution for 2-3 days. Results: The cranial mesenteric artery originated from the abdominal aorta, caudally to the celiac trunk, giving caudal duodenal artery, jejunal arteries, ileal arteries, ileocolic artery and middle colic artery. The caudal mesenteric artery arises from the aorta, cranially to the external iliac arteries, originating the left colic and cranial rectal arteries. Conclusion: cranial and caudal mesenteric arteries supplied the small and large intestine of the Barbados Black Belly sheep except caudal part of the large intestine which were supplied by the middle and caudal rectal arteries.
