Tip-of-the-Tongue Phenomenon01:10

Tip-of-the-Tongue Phenomenon

148
The tip-of-the-tongue (TOT) phenomenon is a cognitive experience characterized by a temporary inability to retrieve specific information from memory despite having a strong feeling of knowing the information. Although individuals cannot access the target word or detail, they frequently recall related elements, such as its initial letter, syllable count, or context. This partial retrieval often causes frustration, as one might recognize a familiar face or know that a name starts with a specific...

Maxam-Gilbert Sequencing

11.2K
In the same year as the discovery of the Sanger sequencing method, another group of scientists, Allan Maxam and Walter Gilbert, demonstrated their chemical-cleavage method for DNA sequencing. The Maxam-Gilbert method relies on using different chemicals that can cleave the DNA sequence at specific sites, the separation of resulting DNA fragments of variable size using electrophoresis, and deciphering the DNA sequence from the resulting gel bands.

Quality Assurance01:19

Quality Assurance

139
Quality assurance is the overarching term used to describe the activities employed to ensure the proper performance of a system. These activities can be classified into three categories: quality control, quality assessment, and internal corrective measures. Typically, these activities work cyclically: quality control is performed before and during the analysis, while quality assessment occurs during and after the investigation. Internal corrective measures are implemented based on the findings...

Since the discovery of the two BER pathways, there has been a debate about how a cell chooses one pathway over the other and the factors determining this selection. Numerous in vitro experiments have pointed out multiple determinants for the sub-pathway selection. These are:

Area of Science:

  • Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)
  • Ancient Chinese Astronomy
  • Medical History

Context:

  • The study examines the etymology of 'Quepen,' an ancient Chinese anatomical term.
  • It investigates the connection between the Kuixiu constellation and anatomical nomenclature.
  • Historical Chinese medical texts and archaeological findings are utilized.

Purpose:

  • To elucidate the origin and meaning of the anatomical term 'Quepen.'
  • To verify the relationship between 'Jian gu' (clavicle and shoulder blades) and 'Quepen' using historical astronomical and divination records.
  • To clarify the anatomical reference of 'Quepen,' potentially the jugular notch, based on texts like the Huangdi Neijing.

Summary:

  • Analysis of the Kuixiu constellation and its association with the term 'Quepen' suggests a link to the pelvis.
  • Cross-referencing with the 'Divination Birth Chart' and 'Jian shang' indicates 'Kui' corresponds to the upper body, specifically clavicle and shoulder blades.
  • The term 'Quepen' is likely related to the jugular notch, as supported by the Huangdi Neijing.

Impact:

  • This research sheds light on ancient Chinese anatomical terminology and naming conventions.
  • It reveals the practice of transferring names of body parts to acupoints, using 'Quepen' and 'Tianshu' as examples.
  • The findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the historical development of TCM and its linguistic roots.
