In this regard, the unity of words and concepts is considered an indispensible part of all communication. Being a great hindrance on the way to efficient scientific communication, competence in general academic vocabulary seems to be of paramount importance. The reflection of the process of scientific work can be found in the general scientific vocabulary in order to establish a convenient, rational and simple system in this register. The present work focused on the lexical dimensions of scientific discourse in the hope to illuminate the path to bring about a better understanding of one of the crucial aspects of this register which seems to be overlooked while teaching EAP to non-native learners, a pragmatically oriented system which might provide a scientifically controlled ＂tool＂, to non-native learners.展开更多

Although peripheral nerves retain a good regeneration potential, the clinical outcome after nerve lesion is far from being satisfactory and functional recovery is almost never complete, especially in the case of large nerve defects, that result in loss or diminished sensitivity and/or motor activity of the innervated target organs. Therefore, to improve the outcome after nerve damage, or in peripheral neuropathies, there is a need for further research in nerve repair and regeneration to identify factors that promote axonal regrowth, remvelination and target reinnervation.展开更多
