State of spatial memory and antioxidant system activity of rats in the dynamics of development of blast-induced traumatic brain injury by Yu.V. Kozlova, H.S. Maslak, O.E. Abraimova, V.V. Koldunov, O.E. Khudyakov

“…Correlation analysis between spatial memory and catalase activity in experimental rats showed a negative relationship of medium degree on day 1 (r=-0.3, p<0.01) and a negative relationship (r=-0.2, p<0.01) of weak degree on day 3 of post-traumatic period, indicating increased formation of free radicals during this period. One-way analysis of variance showed a significant (H1, p<0.01) effect of changes in the catalase activity of rat blood plasma on the state of spatial memory in the Barnes maze during 14 days of the post-traumatic period. …”

‘Queer Reverence’: Aubrey Beardsley’s Venus and Tannhäuser by Nicole Fluhr

“…The text thus excludes sin by drastically truncating the familiar narrative promised by its title, which engages to ‘set forth an exact account of the manner of state held by Madam Venus, Goddess and Meretrix, under the famous Hörselberg, and containing the Adventures of Tannhäuser in that Place, his Repentance, his Journeying to Rome and Return to the Loving Mountain.’ This radical cropping of the tale has the effect of not merely revising but reversing the Tannhäuser legend’s moral in its preference of pagan values over Christian. …”
