Colchicine’s medical evolution is historically bound to the Mediterranean basin, since remarkable researchers from this region underscored its valuable properties. With the passing of years colchicine became an essential pharmaceutical substance for the treatment of rheumatologic and cardiovascular diseases. In light of recent findings, the therapeutic value of colchicine has grown. In clinical practice, colchicine remains underutilized in view of its proven efficacy and safety. Its complex pharmacokinetics and multifaceted anti-inflammatory role remain under investigation. The current review addresses the safe administration of colchicine in view of key drug to drug interactions. Finally, we are briefly presenting colchicine’s future potential applications. Highlights • Colchicine is among the oldest drug molecules in medical history. • Clinicians should always check for drug to drug interactions and modify colchicine’s dose according to published guidelines. • Beyond known indications (e.g. pericarditis, gout), current evidence implies favorable colchicine effects in CAD, stroke and even in COVID19.

152 σ. : εικ. ; 23 εκ. + 1 (διπλ.) χάρτης (50,5 x 49 εκ.) Στο βιβλίο αυτό περιγράφονται και τεκμηριώνονται ιστορικά οι διαδρομές του παλαίμαχου Κρητικού ταξίαρχου Δημήτριου Μαρκόπουλου και του καπετάνιου της Ρούμελης Διαμαντή, που διασταυρώθηκαν μέσα στη θύελλα των τελευταίων μηνών του Ελληνικού Εμφυλίου Πολέμου, σε μια πορεία που στο τέρμα της περίμενε και τους δύο ο θάνατος. Η δραματική μοίρα δύο γενναίων πολεμιστών της πρώτης γραμμής, παγιδευμένων μέσα σ' έναν αόρατο ιστό δολοπλοκιών που εμπλέκουν την ανώτατη πολιτική και στρατιωτική ηγεσία των δύο αντιπάλων πλευρών. Στρατηγικά και τακτικά σφάλματα, αυθαίρετες αποφάσεις ζωής και θανάτου μέσα στην έπαρση του επικειμένου θριάμβου ή στην απελπισία της επερχόμενης κατάρρευσης, σύνδεσμοι που χάνονται, επιστολές που φθάνουν καθυστερημένα στον προορισμό τους, γιάφκες στο κέντρο της Αθήνας και αντάρτικες λούφες στα δασωμένα βουνά, στόματα που παραμένουν σφραγισμένα μισόν αιώνα μετά, συστηματικές εκστρατείες παραπληροφόρησης, προδοσίες από εχθρούς και φίλους, υφαίνουν το συναρπαστικό μίτο μιας (αληθινής ωστόσο) ιστορίας μυστηρίου.

AbstractBackgroundChiropractic technique systems have been historically documented to advocate overutilization of radiography. Various rationales for this have been explored in the literature. However, little consideration has been given to the possibility that the healthcare belief system of prominent early chiropractors may have influenced the use of the diagnostic modality through the years. The original rationale was the visualisation of chiropractic subluxations, defined as bones slightly out of place, pressing on nerves, and ultimately causing disease. This paradigm of radiography has survived in parts of the chiropractic profession, despite lacking evidence of clinical validity. The purpose of this paper is to compare the characteristics of the chiropractic technique systems that have utilised radiography for subluxation detection with the characteristics of religion, and to discover potential historical links that may have facilitated the development of those characteristics.DiscussionTwenty-three currently or previously existing technique systems requiring radiography for subluxation analysis were found using a search of the internet, books and consultation with experts. Evidence of religiosity from the early founders' writings was compared with textbooks, published papers, and websites of subsequently developed systems. Six criteria denoting religious thinking were developed using definitions from various sources. They are: supernatural concepts, claims of supremacy, rules and rituals, sacred artefacts, sacred stories, and special language. All of these were found to a greater or lesser degree in the publicly available documents of all the subluxation-based chiropractic x-ray systems.SummaryThe founders and early pioneers of chiropractic did not benefit from the current understanding of science and research, and therefore substituted deductive and inductive reasoning to arrive at conclusions about health and disease in the human body. Some of this thinking and rationalisation demonstrably followed a religion-like pattern, including BJ Palmer's use of radiography. Although access to scientific methods and research education became much advanced and more accessible during the past few decades, the publicly available documents of technique systems that used radiography for chiropractic subluxation detection examined in this paper employed a historically derived paradigm for radiography that displayed characteristics in common with religion.

Monte Carlo methods apply various physical models, either condensed history (CH) or track structure (TS), to simulate the passage of radiation through matter. Both CH and TS models continue to be applied to radiation dosimetry investigations on a micro and nano scale. However, as there has been no systematic comparison of the use of these models for such applications there can be no quantification of the uncertainty that is being introduced by the choice of physics model. A comparison of CH and TS models available in Geant4, along with a quantification of the differences in calculated quantities on a micro and nano scale, has been undertaken in this study. A sphere of liquid water was simulated, with an incident beam of monoenergetic electrons with kinetic energy between 50 eV and 10 keV. The energy deposition (typical of microdosimetry) and number of ionisations (typical of nanodosimetry), per incident particle, were recorded in a water sphere with diameter varying between 1 nm and 1 m. The simulations were repeated using the following physics packages: Livermore (CH), Penelope (CH) and Geant4-DNA (TS). Results indicated that substantial differences were present between calculated physical quantities, depending on the physics model, target diameter and ratio of the target diameter and mean track length of the incident electron. In the case of the smallest targets, the calculated energy deposition was higher when using the CH models, while the number of ionisations was typically underestimated. In larger targets the energy deposition was in good agreement for all physics models, however the number of ionisations was significantly underestimated by the CH approach, in some cases by almost two orders of magnitude. Regarding CH models, the parameter that had the greatest impact on the results was found to be the threshold of production of secondary particles; when this was minimised the CH and TS results showed the best agreement.

Ioannis Kapodistrias (1776–1831) was the founder of the modern Greek state. He previously served as a brilliant foreign minister of Russia, and he was a progressive and effective leader of the new country during the four years he served it as its first Governor. Though he had to create a state from zero, he had the ambition and method to organize it according to the European standards. His assassination in Nafplion, outside a church, deprived the country from the chance to become a modern state from the outset. The following article draws material from the “Great Greek Biographical Dictionary” and highlights the significance of one of the most distinguished politicians and diplomats of Europe. He was the man who wrote the first chapter of modern Greek history.
