Zeotype ionic crystal of Cs5[Cr3O(OOCH)6(H2O)3][alpha-CoW12O40].7.5H2O with shape-selective adsorption of water.

A polyoxometalate-macrocation ionic crystal of Cs5[Cr3O(OOCH)6(H2O)3][alpha-CoW12O40]. 7.5H2O (1a) was synthesized by the complexion of an inorganic metal-oxide cluster of [alpha-CoW12O40]6- and a macrocation of [Cr3O(OOCH)6(H2O)3]+. About 50% of the water of crystallization in 1a was desorbed by the evacuation to form phase 1b, and the crystallinity and crystal structure was essentially maintained by the transformation. 1b adsorbed water into the solid bulk but excluded larger alcohols. 1b was easily reusable for the separation of only water in the azeotropic mixture of ethanol and water.
Personal Relevance and Mental Simulation Amplify the Duration Framing Effect

Different framing of the same duration (one year, 12 months, 365 days) can influence consumers’ impressions of subjective duration, thereby affecting their judgments and decisions. The authors propose that, ironically, self-relevance amplifies this duration framing effect. Consumers for whom a particular self-improvement domain is personally relevant are less likely to adopt a one-year self-improvement plan as compared with a 12-month plan because they perceive it as longer and more difficult. This bias is more likely to manifest in consumers who report that the task is highly personally relevant to them, who are making predictions for themselves (vs. others), and who have high (vs. low) task involvement. Personal relevance amplifies this effect because it prompts process-focused simulation of the plan, consequently increasing susceptibility to spurious duration and difficulty cues embedded in frames.
Conditions promoting self-directed learning at the workplace

Self-directed learning at work is becoming a major trend in training and organizational development. Referring to theoretical considerations in the domains of motivation and learning in disciplines beyond adult education, the concepts of interest, strategies, control, and evaluation seem appropriate to describe self-directed learning. Constructs of the concept "strategies" are resource management, sequencing, and acquisition. Constructs of "control" include cognitive, metacognitive, and motivational. Constructs of "evaluation" are diagnosis and attribution. Constructs of "interest" include contextual and procedural. With reference to these concepts and constructs, a conceptual model of self-directed learning, the Two-Shell Model of Motivated Self-Directed Learning, has been developed and validated. Impact of selected perceived work conditions (experienced autonomy, competence, and social integration) on this type of learning has been structurally modeled with a sample of 67 employees in the fish processing industry in Germany who were administered the Motivated Self-Directed Learning Questionnaire for Companies. The hypothesis of a directed relation among experienced workplace conditions, interest in self learning, and learning activities was tested. Findings indicate a relatively strong correlation between experienced workplace conditions and self-learning interest and self-learning interest as an explanation for over 50 percent of variance in learning strategies.

Comparative study of toxic effects of anatase and rutile type nanosized titanium dioxide particles in vivo and in vitro.

Two types of nanosized titanium dioxide, anatase (anTiO2) and rutile (rnTiO2), are widely used in industry, commercial products and biosystems. TiO2 has been evaluated as a Group 2B carcinogen. Previous reports indicated that anTiO2 is less toxic than rnTiO2, however, under ultraviolet irradiation anTiO2 is more toxic than rnTiO2 in vitro because of differences in their crystal structures. In the present study, we compared the in vivo and in vitro toxic effects induced by anTiO2 and rnTiO2. Female SD rats were treated with 500 ? g/ml of anTiO2 or rnTiO2 suspensions by intra-pulmonary spraying 8 times over a two week period. In the lung, treatment with anTiO2 or rnTiO2 increased alveolar macrophage numbers and levels of 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG); these increases tended to be lower in the anTiO2 treated group compared to the rnTiO2 treated group. Expression of MIP1? mRNA and protein in lung tissues treated with anTiO2 and rnTiO2 was also significantly up-regulated, with MIP1? mRNA and protein expression significantly lower in the anTiO2 group than in the rnTiO2 group. In cell culture of primary alveolar macrophages (PAM) treated with anTiO2 and rnTiO2, expression of MIP1? mRNA in the PAM and protein in the culture media was significantly higher than in control cultures. Similarly to the in vivo results, MIP1? mRNA and protein expression was significantly lower in the anTiO2 treated cultures compared to the rnTiO2 treated cultures. Furthermore, conditioned cell culture media from PAM cultures treated with anTiO2 had less effect on A549 cell proliferation compared to conditioned media from cultures treated with rnTiO2. However, no significant difference was found in the toxicological effects on cell viability of ultra violet irradiated anTiO2 and rnTiO2. In conclusion, our results indicate that anTiO2 is less potent in induction of alveolar macrophage infiltration, 8-OHdG and MIP1? expression in the lung, and growth stimulation of A549 cells in vitro than rnTiO2.
Stress in the Lives of College Women: “Lots to Do and Not Much Time”

This study examined how activity and engagement qualities were related to stress. Experience sampling using e-mail pagers collected simultaneous ratings of stress and qualities of activity for 30 college women during 14 days. Surveys included narrative questions about activity types, feelings, and experience and Likert-type scales rating activity qualities and stress. A total of 2,327 surveys were analyzed using descriptive, configural frequency, and qualitative analyses. Students rated 34% of all events as stressful. Most were academic tasks (41%), overrepresented compared to overall frequency. Finding an activity to be high in complexity was most likely to lead to perceptions of increased stress for students; however, there were also social circumstances and low complexity activities in which stress was experienced.
Aquaporin-3 and Aquaporin-4 Are Sorted Differently and Separately in the Trans-Golgi Network

Aquaporin-3 (AQP3) and aquaporin-4 (AQP4) are homologous proteins expressed in the basolateral plasma membrane of kidney collecting duct principal cells, where they mediate the exit pathway for apically reabsorbed water. Although both proteins are localized to the same plasma membrane domain, it is unknown if they are sorted together in the Golgi, or arrive in the same or different vesicles at the plasma membrane. We addressed these questions using high resolution deconvolution imaging, spinning disk and laser scanning confocal microscopy of cells expressing AQP3 and AQP4. AQP3 and AQP4 were observed mostly in separate post-Golgi carriers, and spinning disk microscopy showed that most of AQP3 and AQP4 were delivered to the plasma membrane in separate vesicles. In contrast, VSV-G and LDL-R, two well-charcterized basolateral proteins, co-localized to a high degree in the same post-Golgi carriers, indicating that the differential sorting of AQP3 and AQP4 is specific and regulated. Significantly, a chimeric AQP3 containing the AQP4 cytoplasmic tails co-localized with AQP4 in post-Golgi vesicles. These results indicate that AQP3 and AQP4 are separated into different post-Golgi carriers based on different cytoplasmic domain sorting signals, and are then delivered separately to the plasma membrane.
`Neverending Love' and `Blowing Your Load': The Meanings of Sex to Rural Youth

This article reports on qualitative and quantitative research, conducted with senior secondary school students in small rural Australian towns, which explored the meanings of sex and relationships. Through a survey, the researchers identified the many ways in which these young people construct meanings around sex and sexuality and, combined with their beliefs about relationships, what impact these meanings might have on their ability to negotiate safe sexual relationships. Single-sex focus discussion groups that explored aspects of developing sexuality within the context of small town culture were also held in each town. Not surprisingly, the research revealed that young people in rural areas (like many of their urban peers) assumed heterosexuality as the norm, and penis-vagina sexual intercourse as the pivotal activity in sex. Beyond this (although there was overlap), the young men and women tended to attach different meanings to sex around issues such as its place in a relationship, the pleasure it affords and the dangers it presents. There were significant gender differences in the perceived advantages and disadvantages of relationships with the expectation to have sex being seen as a deterrent for young women and an advantage for young men. We examine the common meanings of sex and the gender differences in meaning for the ways in which they might impact on young people's ability and motivation to practise safe sex, in particular, ways in which gender and power impact on sexual encounters. Finally, the article focuses on the role that sexuality education might play in helping young people critique their own understandings about sex.
Long-Term Treatment Outcome of Presurgical Nasoalveolar Molding in Patients With Unilateral Cleft Lip and Palate

Purpose:The purpose of this study was to evaluate the long-term effectiveness of presurgical nasoalveolar molding (PNAM) in patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP). Methods:Twenty-five patients with UCLP treated by either PNAM or non-PNAM therapy between 1998 and 2003 were recruited in the study. During the clinical examination and data analysis, the evaluators were blinded to which patients received PNAM. The patients were reviewed clinically, and their facial morphology was captured with a three-dimensional scanner. Their dental arch configuration and occlusion were recorded by plaster dental models. After the patient evaluations and measurements were completed, the patient list was unblinded. There were 20 patients in the PNAM group and 5 patients in the non-PNAM group. Fisher exact tests and Wilcoxon rank sum tests were used to compare the outcomes. Results:Clinically, the improvement in the PNAM group was most evident in nasal and lip anatomy. However, there were no statistically significant differences between the 2 groups on each of the measurements on three-dimensional facial images and dental models. Conclusions:Our study suggests a trend toward a long-term clinical improvement in nasal and lip anatomy of UCLP patients treated with PNAM. However, these improved results were not confirmed by three-dimensional stereophotography. There was no statistically significant difference in the long-term three-dimensional anthropometric measurements and dental model analysis between the PNAM group and the non-PNAM group.
THE DENSITY PROFILES OF MASSIVE, RELAXED GALAXY CLUSTERS. I. THE TOTAL DENSITY OVER THREE DECADES IN RADIUS

Clusters of galaxies are excellent locations to probe the distribution of baryons and dark matter (DM) over a wide range of scales. We study a sample of seven massive (M200 = 0.4–2 × 1015 M☉), relaxed galaxy clusters with centrally located brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) at z = 0.2–0.3. Using the observational tools of strong and weak gravitational lensing, combined with resolved stellar kinematics within the BCG, we measure the total radial density profile, comprising both dark and baryonic matter, over scales of ≃ 3–3000 kpc. We present Keck spectroscopy yielding seven new spectroscopic redshifts of multiply imaged sources and extended stellar velocity dispersion profiles of the BCGs. Lensing-derived mass profiles typically agree with independent X-ray estimates within ≃ 15%, suggesting that departures from hydrostatic equilibrium are small and that the clusters in our sample (except A383) are not strongly elongated or compressed along the line of sight. The inner logarithmic slope γtot of the total density profile measured over r/r200 = 0.003–0.03, where , is found to be nearly universal, with a mean 〈γtot〉 = 1.16 ± 0.05(random)+0.05−0.07 (systematic) and an intrinsic scatter σγ < 0.13 (68% confidence). This is further supported by the very homogeneous shape of the observed velocity dispersion profiles, which are mutually consistent after a simple scaling. Remarkably, this slope agrees closely with high-resolution numerical simulations that contain only DM, despite the significant contribution of stellar mass on the scales we probe. The Navarro–Frenk–White profile characteristic of collisionless cold DM is a better description of the total mass density at radii ≳ 5–10 kpc than that of DM alone. Hydrodynamical simulations that include baryons, cooling, and feedback currently provide a poorer match. We discuss the significance of our findings for understanding the physical processes governing the assembly of BCGs and cluster cores, particularly the influence of baryons on the inner DM halo.
Attitudes and Beliefs about Placebo Surgery among Orthopedic Shoulder Surgeons in the United Kingdom

Objectives To survey surgeons on their beliefs and attitudes towards the use of placebo in surgery. Methods British orthopedic shoulder surgeons, attending a national conference in the United Kingdom, were asked to complete a self-report online questionnaire about their beliefs and attitudes towards the use of placebo related to surgical intervention. The survey included questions about ethical issues, the mechanism of placebo effects, and any concerns regarding its use. Results 100 surgeons who participated in the survey believed that placebo surgery is ethically acceptable (96%), especially as a part of a clinical trial (46%). Respondents thought that a placebo effect in surgery is real i.e. has a scientific basis (92%), that placebo can be therapeutically beneficial (77%), and that it involves psychological mechanisms (96%). Over half of the respondents (58%) have used a surgical procedure with a significant placebo component at least once in their professional career. Their main concern about placebo use in surgery was that it might involve an element of deception. Conclusions and Implications Surgeons generally agreed that a placebo component to surgical intervention might exist. They also supported placebo use in clinical trials and considered it ethical, providing it does not involve deception of patients. More studies are needed, particularly among other surgical specialties and with larger numbers of participants, to better understand the use of placebo in surgery.
Resistance Training After Myocardial Infarction in Rats: Its Role on Cardiac and Autonomic Function

Background Although resistance exercise training is part of cardiovascular rehabilitation programs, little is known about its role on the cardiac and autonomic function after myocardial infarction. Objective To evaluate the effects of resistance exercise training, started early after myocardial infarction, on cardiac function, hemodynamic profile, and autonomic modulation in rats. Methods Male Wistar rats were divided into four groups: sedentary control, trained control, sedentary infarcted and trained infarcted rats. Each group with n = 9 rats. The animals underwent maximum load test and echocardiography at the beginning and at the end of the resistance exercise training (in an adapted ladder, 40% to 60% of the maximum load test, 3 months, 5 days/week). At the end, hemodynamic, baroreflex sensitivity and autonomic modulation assessments were made. Results The maximum load test increased in groups trained control (+32%) and trained infarcted (+46%) in relation to groups sedentary control and sedentary infarcted. Although no change occurred regarding the myocardial infarction size and systolic function, the E/A ratio (-23%), myocardial performance index (-39%) and systolic blood pressure (+6%) improved with resistance exercise training in group trained infarcted. Concomitantly, the training provided additional benefits in the high frequency bands of the pulse interval (+45%), as well as in the low frequency band of systolic blood pressure (-46%) in rats from group trained infarcted in relation to group sedentary infarcted. Conclusion Resistance exercise training alone may be an important and safe tool in the management of patients after myocardial infarction, considering that it does not lead to significant changes in the ventricular function, reduces the global cardiac stress, and significantly improves the vascular and cardiac autonomic modulation in infarcted rats.
Large-Scale Properties in Turbulent Spherically Symmetric Accretion

We study the role of turbulence in a spherically symmetric accreting system on very large spatial scales of the system. This is also a highly subsonic flow region, and here the accreting fluid is treated as nearly incompressible. It is shown here that the coupling of the mean flow and the turbulent fluctuations gives rise to a scaling relation for an effective "turbulent viscosity. " This in turn leads to a dynamic scaling of sound propagation in the accretion process. As a consequence of this scaling, the sonic horizon of the transonic inflow solution is shifted inward, in comparison with the inviscid flow.
Perceptions of Peer Rape Myth Acceptance and Disclosure in a Sample of College Sexual Assault Survivors

University of TulsaThere are many empirically supported treatments available to help sexual assaultsurvivors improve their postassault outcomes. Unfortunately, many survivors do notdisclose their assault to others or seek formal treatment services and thus are not ableto beneÞt from these treatments. This study examines the relations between survivorsOperceptions of peer rape myth acceptance (RMA), disclosure behaviors, and psycho-logical well-being. Sixty-four sexually assaulted college undergraduates and 159 oftheirnonassaultedpeersparticipatedinthisstudy. SurvivorssigniÞcantlyoverestimatedtheir peersO RMA, and this overestimation predicted posttraumatic symptoms. Contraryto hypotheses, the relation between estimated peer RMA and posttraumatic distress wasnot mediated by assault disclosure variables. As estimated peer RMA increased,survivors reported disclosing fewer assault details. These Þndings have implications forboth sexual assault survivors and the general population.Keywords:
Overcoming Relational Inertia

This paper examines how organizational members overcome relational inertia and contribute to integration and value creation following an acquisition, through an analysis of a large law firm’s acquisition of two smaller firms. When merging law firm partners share clients with one another, both within and across the boundaries of the formerly separate firms, they create new relationships that connect the organizational units together. We examine both the antecedents and consequences of post-acquisition integration through client sharing. Drawing on network theory, we consider how the configuration of prior referral relationships influences new sharing of clients undertaken by individual partners. We also use the prior referral-network structure to predict which partners will cut their former intraunit client-sharing ties. To ascertain how client sharing creates value for the combined organization, we analyze the effects of client sharing on revenue generation and human capital development. Our findings uncover a paradox in integration behavior: the same referral-network structures that contribute to integration by increasing interunit sharing also tend to detract from integration because they are associated with cutting existing intraunit ties. We also find that interunit client sharing is positively associated with revenue generation but negatively associated with human capital development. Overall, this research advances a relational perspective on post-acquisition integration and sheds new light on how networks are formed and become reconfigured inside organizations.
Bullying, Victimization, School Performance, and Mother-Child Relationship Quality: Direct and Transactional Associations

The current investigation examines longitudinal differences between bullies, victims, and bully victims in terms of the quality of their relationship with their parents and school performance. We also investigate the transactional association between the quality of the parent-child relationship and bullying behavior, after taking into account the longitudinal association among bullying, victimization, and school performance. The sample consisted of 895 mothers and their children who participated in the NICHD Study of Early Child Care. According to the findings, children in the cooccurring bully victim group were at higher risk to experience continuous conflict with their mothers and to perform worse academically. The findings also offer support for the hypothesized transactional association between bullying and parent-child conflict and closeness. Further, a positive longitudinal transactional association between victimization and parent-child closeness was identified. Finally, school performance was positively related to victimization but was unrelated to bullying behavior.
Things to do today...: a daily diary study on task completion at work

Relatively little is known about how goals in complex jobs are translated into action and how they are completed in real life settings. This study addressed the question to what extent planned work may actually be completed on a daily basis. The completion of daily work goals was studied in a sample of 878 tasks identified by 29 R&D engineers with the help of a daily diary. Multilevel analysis was used to analyse the joint effect of task attributes, perceived job characteristics, and personality attributes on the completion of planned work goals. At the level of task attributes, we found that priority, urgency, and lower importance were related to task completion, and at the individual level, conscientiousness, emotional stability, and time management training. Task completion was not related to task attractiveness, workload, job autonomy, planning, or perceived control of time.
Heterogeneous Innovations, Firm Creation and Destruction, and Asset Prices

We study the implications of creative destruction on asset prices. We develop a general equilibrium model of endogenous firm creation and destruction in which “incremental” innovation by incumbents and “radical” innovation by entrants drive productivity improvements. Firms’ incentives to innovate generate time-varying economic growth and countercyclical economic uncertainty. The model matches key properties of consumption and asset prices, as well as novel facts on the process of creative destruction in the United States obtained using a sample of patents from 1975–2013. We show that the interplay between incumbents and entrants is an important determinant of risks priced in the financial markets.Received June 2, 2014; accepted September 14, 2015 by Editor Wayne Ferson.
