Ageing in humans refers to multidimensional process of physical psychological and social change in person over time. Some dimensions of ageing grow and expand over time while others decline. Healthy ageing can be defined as the ageing having a low risk of disease and disease-related disability, high cognitive, physical functional capacity, and being actively engaged with life. According to world health organization healthy ageing can be defined as “as the process of developing and maintaining the functional ability that enables wellbeing in older age”. According to Unani System of Medicine, Human life could be categorized into four stages or whole life of human being can be classified as Sin-e- Namu having temperament Haar Ratab ( hot and moisture) it ends up to 30 years, Sin-e-Shabab having temperament Haar Yabis ( hot and dry )ends up to 30 to 40 years, Sin-e-Kahulat having temperament Barid Yabis ( cold and dry) end up to 60-years at last is the Sin-e-Shaikhukhat (senile age) having temperament Barid Ratab ( cold and moist)end up to 60-years onwards. Promotion of health and protection of diseases at senile age is extremely desirable. At the senile age the powers of body declines especially the immune power in our literature the cause of decline power is the lacking of quantity of Ratoobate Ghareeziya ( innate power) it becomes lesser than the quantity required for the preservation of Hararate Ghareeziya for the continuing the bodily normal metabolism and dominated by Ratoobate Ghareeba Bala (abnormal metabolic products). In this period deterioration in the powers and faculties of the body is noticeable. Ratoobate Ghareeziya and Hararate Ghareeziya are markedly reduced; hence the temperament becomes Barid and Ratab. This temperament is harmful and may induce bad humors in the body. To evacuate the body from these humors the poses, stretches, breathing and relaxation meditation techniques are needed which are associated with Riyaz at and yoga and credited with maintaining good health and improving health conditions that tend to affect us as we ages.

Following a brief reference to theories on the hero, the article reviews the concept of the hero in Ruben Dario, particularly in Cantos de vida y esperanza. In this book —fruit of the events of 1898— the symbolic- mythical aspects of the Nicaraguan’s earlier poetry were transformed into the symbolic-heroic. Around the axis of art, his lyrical works bring together experience and metaphysics. His heroes —contemporary figures, artists from the past, saints, literary characters, etc.— act within the framework of the characteristic poetic initiation of the reader. Valle Inclan, on the contrary, creates an antihero, in accordance with the Decadence of his Sonatas and with his view of history. The future of the Hispanic world collapses, in clear opposition to the open future of Dario’s «Arielism», that can be found in short stories such as «DQ». Dario converts himself into his very own paper hero, with an enthusiasm confirmed by his letter to Eduardo Dato, and travels to America as a herald of peace.

This article reviews the book Swedish Modernism. Architecture, Consumption and the Welfare State , edited by Helena Mattsson and Sven-Olov Wallenstein. In this volume, the editors plea for the construction of ‘multiple modernities’, following which a more diversified understanding of the European welfare state can be constructed. Through twelve contributions by a group of international scholars, Mattsson and Wallenstein aspire to initiate the construction of an emblematic Swedish modernism. The book offers an intricate and diversified reading of the history of the Swedish Folkhemmet , including political history, social sciences and media studies. When it comes to the built environment, however, the volume focuses largely on the home, with a few excursions to exhibition spaces and into corporate culture. In this volume, Mattsson and Wallenstein answer many questions, but raise an equal amount of new questions and thus leave the reader wanting more, as any good book should.

Individual differences in temperament can be a risk or a protective factor for a child, especially for children at-risk who possess single or multiple risk factors that may interfere with their educational success and affect their healthy development and their life-long outcomes. This research study examined the concurrent and longitudinal relationships between temperament, school adjustment, and academic achievement in children at-risk. Seventy-seven children, ages five to 11 years, were reassessed two years after an initial study. Their teachers completed the Temperament Assessment Battery for Children (TABC), the Behavior Assessment System for Children (BASC), and reported on the children's academic achievement. The results for the concurrent relationships showed significant relationships between the children's temperament and their school adjustment; negative emotionality significantly correlated with and predicted school adjustment. Children's temperament was also found to have a significant relationship with academic achievement; persistence and activity level had significant correlations with academic achievement. Persistence, however, was the only predictor of academic achievement. In contrast, the longitudinal relationship between the children's temperament and their educational outcomes in terms of both school adjustment and academic achievement showed no significance. The concurrent relationships were found to be consistent with previous research; whereas the longitudinal relationships were found to vary from previous research. Implications for practice and considerations for future research directions are discussed.

Hyponatremia is the most prevalent electrolyte disorder, so knowledge of its diagnosis and treatment is essential in standard clinical practice. Hypoosmolar hyponatremia is defined as decreased plasma sodium concentration below 135 mEq/L, associated with a decrease in plasma osmolarity. Its speed of development and its symptoms determine the urgency of treatment. Treatment must be individualized and monitored to prevent osmotic demyelination syndrome, the most serious complication of overly rapid correction. For the writing of this review article, a search has been carried out on the UpToDate and PubMed platforms of the review articles and systematic reviews published over the past five years, in Spanish and English, with the keywords: hyponatremia, critically ill, osmolarity and volemia. Books are indicated in the references section.

Personalized medicine has become a goal of genomics and of health policy makers. This article reviews two recent books that are highly critical of this approach, finding their arguments very thoughtful and important. According to Stengers, biology’s rush to become a science of genome sequences has made it part of the “speculative economy of promise.” Reardon claims that the postgenomic condition is the attempt to find meaning in all the troves of data that have been generated. The current paper attempts to extend these arguments by showing that scientific alternatives such as ecological developmental biology and the tissue organization field theory of cancer provide evidence demonstrating that genomic data alone is not sufficient to explain the origins of common disease. What does need to be explained is the intransience of medical scientists to recognize other explanatory models beside the “-omics” approaches based on computational algorithms. To this end, various notions of commodity and religious fetishism are used. This is not to say that there is no place for Big Data and genomics. Rather, these methodologies should have a definite place among others. These books suggest that Big Data genomics is like the cancer it is supposed to conquer. It has expanded unregulated and threatens to kill the body in which it arose.

Core propositions of the Motivational Theory of Coping (Skinner & Wellborn, 1994) rest on the expectation that human behaviour is motivated by strivings to fulfil the three basic psychological needs of relatedness, competence and autonomy. Events are stressful when they threaten or challenge these psychological needs and particular emotional reactions and coping responses are expected to be more likely depending on levels of threat and challenge to the needs. In addition, children’s behavioural tendencies (e.g., temperament) and parental socialisation practices are expected to account for individual differences in children’s appraisals and responses to stressful events. Two studies were conducted with children in grades 3, 5 and 7 to examine aspects of the Motivational Theory of Coping. Age and sex differences were examined in both studies, and, in Study 2 only, children’s coping responses, temperament and parents’ ways of coping were examined as correlates of children’s distress reactions (sadness, fear and anger) and appraisals of stressful events. In Study 1 (N = 146), an analogue testing procedure was developed that involved the presentation of a series of eight videotaped vignettes followed by the completion of questionnaire items to gather children’s responses to each event. These vignettes displayed parent, peer and intrapersonal events known to be common and distressing to children. When scenarios were grouped according to whether children found them high or lower in threat to relatedness, competence and autonomy, higher threat scenario groups were appraised as significantly more distressing and less challenging than lower threat scenarios. Children also wanted to escape higher threat scenarios significantly more than lower threat scenarios. Some age differences were found with younger children appraising more distress and less threat than older children. Sex differences also were found; girls reported more distress than boys. Study 2 (N = 230) was a partial replication of the Study 1 method, but relied on a subset of four video vignettes that were high or lower in threat to relatedness. Two vignettes displaying peer stressors were high in threat, whereas two vignettes displaying parent stressors were lower in threat. Children reported their distress, appraisals of threat and challenge, orientation away and coping responses they would use after viewing each event. Coping was measured with the Motivational Theory of Coping Scale – 12 (MTC-12), a new measure developed for Study 2 that assessed the 12 families posited by Skinner, Edge, Altman and Sherwood (2003). Children also completed a more widely used measure of coping in a separate classroom session (Children’s Coping Strategies Checklist [CCSC]; Ayers, Sandler, West, & Roosa, 1996) and parents (N = 206) reported their children’s temperament and their own ways of coping with a recent self-nominated stressor. As expected, many items on the MTC-12 converged with subscales of the CCSC, and there was support for the theoretical conceptualisation of the 12 families of coping. Results of Study 2 were most often consistent with Study 1 and provided further support for some aspects of the Motivational Theory of Coping. Yet, there were some discrepant findings when comparing Study 1 and 2. For example, there were no grade level differences in children’s distress and appraisals of threat in Study 2. Consistent with Study 1, girls were significantly more distressed than boys and wanted to escape stressful situations more than boys. Very few sex differences were found in children’s appraisals of threat in either Study 1 or 2, and girls enacted significantly more coping strategies in Study 2 than boys. Few associations were found when children’s appraisals of stress and coping responses were correlated with children’s temperament (negative reactivity, task persistence, approach/withdrawal and activity), and parental ways of coping. The analogue procedure and measures developed for these studies will be useful in future research on children’s appraisals of a range of stressful events and for studies of children’s development and individual differences in stress appraisals and coping responses. Additional theoretical, research and clinical implications of these studies also were discussed.

This issue marks the beginning of the third year of Archnet-IJAR life. In the first two years, over 85 quality contributions by 70 scholars, academics and practitioners from 27 countries have been published after a rigorous review process followed by leading journals. Due to the high demand on Archnet-IJAR, the issue is divided into three refereed sections in addition to the review and trigger articles section. This issue is thus adding another dimension where many papers from countries not represented before are included to address the transdisciplinary nature of architecture, and people-environments and design research while exhibiting the international dimension of the journal. The first section accommodates 9 papers selected from IAPS 19th – the 19th conference of the International Association for People- Environments Studies, which was held in Bibliotheca Alexandrina in September 2006. The typical norm of the IAPS conferences is that complete papers are submitted for publication after the conference in a post conference book, and they are subjected to a strict review process. The scientific committee of IAPS 19 th selected 31 papers for inclusion in the post conference book. However, due to the limited size constraints mandated by the publisher, 9 papers were not included. Based on discussions of Archnet-IJAR chief editor, the scientific committee of the conference, and IAPS board the nine papers are published in this issue. The second section includes three papers on Traditional Public Baths-Hammam- in the Mediterranean, which represent a continuation of the previous special issue. Thanks to Dr. Fodil Fadli in giving those three papers the opportunity to see the light through an intensive translation and editing process since two of them were originally written in French. While the third section includes five papers submitted and refereed through the typical review process of Archnet-IJAR--offering a wide variety of topics and themes, the review and trigger articles section encompasses four submissions in the form of a review article, symposium abstracts, and book and conference reviews.
