The concept of Srotas and Srotodushti Lakshana has been very scientifically explained in the various context of Ayurveda literature. Detailed Srotas and Srotodushti Lakshana are according to Charaka Samhita Vimansthana assessment of Srotodushti Lakshana can be done by Pratyksha Pramana and in detail explanation. The Srotas play an important role in physiology and the pathogenesis of diseases in normal state; they regulate the physiolo- gy of the body and maintain the anatomical structures of dhatus. The influences of aetiology factors on Srotas can affect pathological manifestations. Considering this fact present study explores various aspects related to the Sro- tas, Srotodushti and Srotodushti Lakshana. Objectives-To assessment of Srotodushti Lakshana in Artavavaha Srotas through Clinical, biochemical, and radiological examination in Artavavaha Srotas. Methodology -The study was conducted under two headings, conceptual and survey study. Conceptual study all the concerned litera- ture were referred and analysed and for survey study, the Artvavaha Sroto Vikara observed and survey through face-face interview. -Hence it is concluded that the knowledge of Srotas is not only used in learning about the anatomy of the transport system of the body but also to understand their physiology and pathology. It can be as- sessed through clinical, biochemical, and radiological findings. Keywords: Srotas, Srotodushti Lakshana, Artavavaha Srotas,

Attention is drawn to the confusion which has been caused by the loose terminology of the anterior appendages in polychaetes, and more exact connotations are proposed. As the prostomium can be recognized as a comparable unit throughout the Polychaeta, a consideration of its constitution is deferred. In the present paper the development and constitution of the anterior region of the sabellariid worms are considered. The larval development of Phragmatopoma californica (representing the most highly advanced genus) is described, and the structure of the adult of this species is compared with that of species belonging to other genera. It is concluded that the opercular stalk arises mainly from the first segment; that the opercular paleae represent the notochaetae of the first two segments, and that the oral tentacles and the building organ are also developed from the first segment. The prostomium bears a single pair of tentacles.

In this contribution, I consider some appreciative links and qualified connections between Raewyn Connell’s work and my own. In particular, I use the example of sport, a key area in the making of boys and young men in many parts of the world, with special reference to body, practice, and theoretical and empirical conceptualizations of masculinity.

The relationships of resting metabolism per unit mass of body to gill and body surface areas were examined by measuring gill, body surface and fin areas of carp ranging from 0.0016 to 2250g. There was a triphasic allometry for the relationship between gill area and body mass: during the prelarval (0.0016–0.003 g) and postlarval (0.003–0.2g) stages there was a positive allometry (slopes of 7.066 and 1.222, respectively), during the juvenile and later stages (0.2–2250 g) there was a negative allometry with a slope of 0.794. There was a diphasic negative allometry for the relationship between surface area of the body or the fins and body mass, with a slope of 0.596 or 0.523 during the larval stage and 0.664 or 0.724 during the juvenile and later stages, respectively. Except for the 3rd phase (juvenile to adult) of gill area, these slopes were significantly different (P<0.01) from the slope for the relationship between resting metabolism and body mass of intact carp (0.84; value from Winberg, 1956). It is considered, therefore, that gill, body surface and fin areas do not directly regulate the resting metabolism of the fish, in the larval stage at least.

In this paper a short account will be given of the present state of the theory of the absorption of light, with special reference to the results gained in this series of investigations.Theories of the dispersion of light may be divided into two classes: (1) those in which the body is regarded as consisting of particles which vibrate under the influence of the light wave; and (2) those in which the body is regarded as consisting of obstacles which diffract the light wave. According to (2), light is scattered, not absorbed; a wave going through the body diminishes in intensity, but the energy lost is radiated out laterally without change of wave-length.

AbstractIn the light of Glucker's claim to have found in De Divinatione 1.115 a separate, unnamed Pythagorean-Platonic influence on Cicero, I examine the passage again with special reference to early Platonic interpretation. I find that the Meno's influence is wider than had been suspected, suggesting (i) the correspondence between the two types of 'natural' divination, dreams and ecstatic prophecy, and (ii) the kinship of souls. Posidonius' influence on the underlying interpretation of Platonic psychology is to be detected, insofar as he would have read Meno 81d as a statement about all souls (together) having all available knowledge. However, Cratippus, Cicero's other main source, can be held to have directly borrowed from Meno 81d2-3 for his crowning argument (De Div. 1.71), and it is likely that other material that uses 81d would also stem from Cratippus. A little is known elsewhere of early interpretation of the Meno. Comparison with other early 'Platonist' material suggests strongly that we must look to Antiochus' school for this view that dreams regularly contain substantial truth explicable in terms of the nature of soul. This would lead once again to Cratippus, and nothing prevents our detecting his hand behind 1.115. Indeed 1.70, which Glucker uses to argue that Cratippus' dream-divining soul would literally have to leave the body, only makes good sense when understood metaphorically.

Observations were made on the occurrence of mating and lambing in Merino ewes of three groups born in the spring, summer, and winter respectively. The lambs ware weaned at 13½–14½ weeks of age, and joined with rams within the following 2 weeks, some with fertile rams, others with vasectomized rams. Thereafter they ran with rams continuously or until lambing occurred. With few exceptions the first oestrus occurred between late November and May (summer and autumn), and the first conception between November and June. Of the ewes born in the spring, summer, and winter, 78, 100, and 95% respectively exhibited oestrus, and 63, 95, and 80% respectively conceived during the first spring, summer, and autumn following birth. All of the remainder experienced oestrus and all except one conceived during the same period in the following year. Both the age and the body weight of the ewes when oestrus and when conception first occurred varied widely. Both were least in the animals born in the spring and greatest in the animals born in the summer. The sexual season was shorter in the young ewes than it was in mature ewes. Further, the first sexual season of the youngest ewes at the time (those born in the spring) was only one-third of the length of the second sexual season or of the first sexual season of the ewes of the other two groups. There was little delay between the first opportunity to conceive and conception. However, among the ewes which mated youngest the proportion which lambed was lower than that in the other young ewes, which in turn was lower than in mature ewes. In addition, the gestation period in at least half of the ewes which lambed 3 youngest was substantially longer than it was in all except a very few of the other ewes

1. Five methods for the production of slow continued reabsorbtion of urine in the experimental animal are presented. 2. The effects of this prolonged reabsorption of urinary constituents on the blood chemistry and tissues are shown with special reference to the kidney. 3. Large and rapid increase of urinary constituents in the body is definitely destructive to the kidney. 4. The degenerative changes found in the experimental animal in the protected pole of the kidney showing nephritis produced by x-ray and in man in the unscarred portions of the kidney showing chronic nephritis account for the progressive nature and final renal insufficiency of these conditions and are best ascribed to the high levels of excretory products in the body.
