Leiomyomatosis Peritonealis Disseminate Following Laparoscopic Myomectomy with Power Morcellation

Background: Leiomyomatosis peritonealis disseminate (LPD) is a rare benign entity, but its histological origin remains unclear. Cases: An unusual DPL case which was diagnosed at 4 years after her initial laparoscopic uterine myomectomy with power morcellation, and recurred 4 years later. The findings during the exploratory laparotomy mimicked peritoneal carcinomatosis, which was characteristic of innumerous nodules throughout the peritoneal surface ranging from several millimeters to cenitimeters in diameters. She was treated with omentectomy and debulking of numerous large tumors. Gonadotropin releasing hormone analogue was given for 6 months after her initial laparotomy. Histopathological examination confirmed a consistent morphology of cellular leiomyoma in the uterine and LPD tumors. Conclusion: Our case suggested an emerging origin of LPD, iatrogenic implantation following laparoscopic procedures with power morcellation. Teaching points: LPD following laparoscopic myomectomy with power morcellation can mimic carcinomatosis clinically. Particular caution should be exerted on power morcellation when the leiomyoma had an unusual appearance.

Guidance to the user of the hearing aid: retention of information

Summary Introduction: Different informations are transmitted to the new user of the hearing aid, in a short period of time. The user needs to understand and retain the information to subsequent recovery and action, ensuring the proper use of the device. Objective: check the information retention about the hearing loss and use/care with the hearing aid in new users of these devices. Examine whether there is influence of demographic data and audiologic. Method: Prospective study. Participants: 30 hearing impaired (18 women and 12 men), aged between 18 and 88 years. Were offered verbal orientation supported with ilustrations at the time of audiological diagnosis and adaptation of the hearing aid. There was practice for manipulation of the prosthesis. Three weeks after the adaptation, was performed a evaluation of the retention of information about hearing loss (free recall) and use/care with the prosthesis (aided recall). The manipulation of the prosthesis was also evaluated. The responses and comments of the evaluator were noted in a specific protocol and scored. Results: On average the participants retained, respectively, 31,6% and 83,6% of informations about hearing loss in adults and elderly. There was no correlation between the retention of information with the degree in hearing loss, education and socioeconomic level. Conclusion: It's necessary the use of strategies that facilitate and improve the retention of the information about the audiological diagnosis, use and care with the hearing aid for new users of this device.

The population structure and ecology of the Antarctic scallop Adamussium colbecki (Smith, 1902) at Terra Nova Bay (Ross Sea, Antarctica)

One of the main purposes of the core project “Ecology and Biogeochemistry of the Southern Ocean” (Italian Antarctic Programme-PNRA) is to understand the utilization and ultimate fate of the organic matter sedimenting through the water column and its influence in the structure of the macrobenthic assemblages. At Terra Nova Bay (Ross Sea), the scallop Adamussium colbecki (Smith, 1902) constitutes large beds up to 70-80 m depth. The importance of this population in the local community structure requires a closer examination of its structure and dynamics, in order to assess its role in the coastal organic matter flux, and for this reason it has been studied during several years (1987-92) in areas close to the Italian Station and particularly in the Summer 1993/94. Its high density (up to 60 ind m -2) and biomass (up to 120 g m -2 dry weight of soft tissues) values are probably linked to slow growth rate and reduced reproductive capacities. X-ray studies on the shell confirmed the slow growth rate of this species, which averages about 0.8 cm yr -1. The analysis of the ratio between length and height of the shell (generally ~ 1) shows a significative inversion at the age of maturity, when the byssally attached juveniles become free from the adult valves. A comparison of the gonadosomatic index in the population between December and January suggests that sexual maturity is reached late in this season and is strongly related to the water column food supply consequent to the phytoplankton bloom. Comparing the size-frequency distribution of this population in different years, it is possible to observe a cohort gap, shifting through the study period, and probably caused by unsuccessful recruitments from 6 to 9 years before 1994. Slow growth rate and intermittent recruitment suggest that an eventual commercial exploitation of this species, abundant but patchly distributed in a narrow bathymetric range, would quickly result in overfishing and commercial failure.
Mixed-Potential Integral Equation Based Characteristic Mode Analysis of Microstrip Antennas

A characteristic mode (CM) formulation is developed for the modal analysis of microstrip antennas. It is derived from the mixed-potential integral equation (MPIE) with spatial-domain Green’s functions for multilayered media, where spatial-domain Green’s functions take into account the effect of the multilayered media. The resultant characteristic currents and fields are orthogonal with each other among different orders of modes. Together with the eigenvalues and their deduced indicators, the CMs provide deep physical insights into the radiation mechanisms of microstrip antennas. Numerical results are presented to confirm CM formulation’s effectiveness and accuracy in determining the resonant frequencies, radiating mode currents, and modal fields of microstrip antennas. As opposed to the very popular CM formulation for conducting bodies, comparative studies are presented to show the quite different modal analysis results by considering the multilayered media.
Affecting Factors of Native-Like Pronunciation: A Literature Review

Teaching and learning native-like pronunciation is one of the most complicated but significant features of EFL and ESL teaching and learning. Due to its complexity, pronunciation has been looked upon as the “Cinderella” of language teaching. This paper firstly emphasized the importance of pronunciation for learners. Based on reviewing a great of research and theories that are relevant to affecting on pronunciation, the paper categorized these affecting factors into internal and external factors. Internal factor focuses on L2 learner themselves, and relates to biologic factors(i.e., age, ear perception, and aptitude) and individual differences(i.e., personality, attitude, motivation, identity, individual efforts, and goal setting), while external factor involves L2 learners’ learning environment, and relates to learners’ native language, exposure, and educational factors. The paper attempts to explain how these factors affect learners to get a native-like pronunciation from a comprehensive perspective, and gives some suggestions for pronunciation teaching.
Rational engineering of photosynthetic electron flux enhances light-powered cytochrome P450 activity

Abstract In this study, we exploited a modified photosynthetic electron transfer chain (PET) in the model cyanobacterium Synechococcus PCC 7002, where electrons derived from water-splitting are used to power reactions catalyzed by a heterologous cytochrome P450 (CYP1A1). A simple in vivo fluorescent assay for CYP1A1 activity was employed to determine the impact of rationally engineering of photosynthetic electron flow. This showed that knocking out a subunit of the type I NADH dehydrogenase complex (NDH-1), suggested to be involved in cyclic photosynthetic electron flow (ΔndhD2), can double the activity of CYP1A1, with a concomitant increase in the flux of electrons from photosynthesis. This also resulted in an increase in cellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and the ATP/nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) ratio, suggesting that expression of a heterologous electron sink in photosynthetic organisms can be used to modify the bioenergetic landscape of the cell. We therefore demonstrate that CYP1A1 is limited by electron supply and that photosynthesis can be re-engineered to increase heterologous P450 activity for the production of high-value bioproducts. The increase in cellular ATP achieved could be harnessed to support metabolically demanding heterologous processes. Furthermore, this experimental system could provide valuable insights into the mechanisms of photosynthesis.
Multi-machine scaling of the main SOL parallel heat flux width in tokamak limiter plasmas

As in many of today’s tokamaks, plasma start-up in ITER will be performed in limiter configuration on either the inner or outer midplane first wall (FW). The massive, beryllium armored ITER FW panels are toroidally shaped to protect panel-to-panel misalignments, increasing the deposited power flux density compared with a purely cylindrical surface. The chosen shaping should thus be optimized for a given radial profile of parallel heat flux, q|| in the scrape-off layer (SOL) to ensure optimal power spreading. For plasmas limited on the outer wall in tokamaks, this profile is commonly observed to decay exponentially as q||=q0exp (−r/λqomp), or, for inner wall limiter plasmas with the double exponential decay comprising a sharp near-SOL feature and a broader main SOL width, λqomp. The initial choice of λqomp, which is critical in ensuring that current ramp-up or down will be possible as planned in the ITER scenario design, was made on the basis of an extremely restricted L-mode divertor dataset, using infra-red thermography measurements on the outer divertor target to extrapolate to a heat flux width at the main plasma midplane. This unsatisfactory situation has now been significantly improved by a dedicated multi-machine ohmic and L-mode limiter plasma study, conducted under the auspices of the International Tokamak Physics Activity, involving 11 tokamaks covering a wide parameter range with R=0.4–2.8 m, B0=1.2–7.5 T, Ip=9–2500 kA. Measurements of λqomp in the database are made exclusively on all devices using a variety of fast reciprocating Langmuir probes entering the plasma at a variety of poloidal locations, but with the majority being on the low field side. Statistical analysis of the database reveals nine reasonable engineering and dimensionless scalings. All yield, however, similar predicted values of λqomp mapped to the outside midplane. The engineering scaling with the highest statistical significance, λqomp=10(Ptot/V (W m−3))−0.38(a/R/κ)1.3, dependent on input power density, aspect ratio and elongation, yields λqomp = [7, 4, 5] cm for Ip = [2.5, 5.0, 7.5] MA, the three reference limiter plasma currents specified in the ITER heat and nuclear load specifications. Mapped to the inboard midplane, the worst case (7.5 MA) corresponds to λqimp∼57±14 mm, thus consolidating the 50 mm width used to optimize the FW panel toroidal shape.
Growth rates of diatoms from coastal Antarctic waters estimated by in situ dialysis incubation

Growth rates of phytoplankton (cell diameter <200 pm) were examined using dialysis bags incubated in situ at 3 coastal sites around the Antarctic Peninsula during the austral summer of 1994 The phytoplankton community, which was similar for all 3 sites, was dominated by diatoms of the genera Thalassiosira sp. , Nitzschla sp. , and Chaetoceros sp The picophytoplankton community (cell diameter < 5 pm) did not incrrase ~nside the dialysis bags, however, the diatom populations grew at high growth rates (mean * SE = 0.39 * 0.18 d-l). The growth rates of diatoms measured in the natural community were, however, close to 0 (mean * SE = -0.05 * 0.22 d-l), indicative of a close balance between growth and losses (population loss rate: mean * SE = 0.45 0.43 d-l). The highest observed growth rates closely approached the maximal predicted growth rates from the cell size of the diatoms for the in situ temperature of 1.5"C. These results indicate that coastal Antarctic phytoplankton can grow at or near, the maximal rates at the low in situ temperatures. The observation that loss rates are similar to population growth rates helps explain the low biomass of coastal Antarctic phytoplankton relative to the high nutrient avallabdity in these waters.

Galianemys, a New Side-Necked Turtle (Pelomedusoides: Bothremydidae) from the Late Cretaceous of Morocco

Abstract The Cenomanian redbeds of southern Morocco have yielded skulls of a new genus and two new species of side-necked turtles, Galianemys whitei and Galianemys emringeri. The genus is based on a series of nine well-preserved skulls and three partial skulls. Galianemys is a pelomedusoid pleurodire belonging to the family Bothremydidae Baur, 1891, because it has: (1) precolumellar fossa absent, (2) foramen stapedio-temporale facing anteriorly, (3) eustachian tube separated from stapes by bone, and (4) exoccipital-quadrate contact. Within the Bothremydidae Galianemys is best resolved as the sister group to Cearachelys because both have the jugal retracted from the orbital margin and a small, slitlike fenestra postotica. Galianemys emringeri has a deep fossa pterygoidei, ventrally exposed prootic, foramen nervi facialis and foramen nervi vidiani, a thicker labial ridge, and the jugal not exposed on the triturating surface, while Galianemys whitei has a shallow fossa pterygoidei, covered prootic and foramen nervi facialis and vidiani, a thinner labial ridge, and a jugal exposed on the triturating surface.
DMAPS: a fully depleted monolithic active pixel sensor—analog performance characterization

Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS) have been developed since the late 1990s based on silicon substrates with a thin epitaxial layer (thickness of 10–15 μm) in which charge is collected on an electrode, albeit by disordered and slow diffusion rather than by drift in a directed electric field. As a consequence, the signal of these conventional MAPS is small (≈1000 e−) and the radiation tolerance is limited. In this paper, the development of a fully Depleted Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (DMAPS) based on a high resistivity substrate allowing the creation of a fully depleted detection volume is presented. This concept overcomes the inherent limitations of charge collection by diffusion in the standard MAPS designs. We present results from a prototype chip EPCB01 designed in a commercial 150 nm CMOS technology. The technology provides a thin (≈50 μm) high resistivity n-type silicon substrate as well as an additional deep p-well which allows to integrate full CMOS circuitry inside the pixel. Different matrix types with several variants of collection electrodes and pixel electronics have been implemented. Measurements of the analog performance of this first implementation of DMAPS pixels are presented.

Ideas about earthquakes after experiencing a natural disaster in Taiwan: An analysis of students' worldviews

On September 21st, 1999, the central part of Taiwan suffered an earthquake which was 7.3 on the Richter scale. This disaster provided a unique and rare opportunity to study students' worldviews. Science educators have proposed that students' worldviews influence their ways of interpreting natural phenomena and then impose an effect on conceptual development in science. The objective of this study was to explore students' worldviews as revealed by their ideas about the causality of earthquakes after experiencing the natural disaster. In Taiwan's socio-cultural milieu, there are some indigenous world-views about earthquakes including the perspectives of supernatural forces and myths. Through tracking the ideas of 60 fifth graders and sixth graders for eight months, this study showed that students tended to employ the following three major approaches to resolve the incongruence between indigenous worldviews and scientific worldviews. First, they may try to accept the scientific ideas and to abandon their original worldviews. Second, they may try to grasp the scientific views and at the same time try to keep the indigenous worldviews unchanged. Many students held a scientific/myths dual perspective about the causes of earthquakes. Finally, they may retain their original worldview and try to ignore the scientific worldview. This paper finally suggests that science educators need to integrate socio-cultural aspects of science and of learning science into science education research and practice.
Leader choice: out-group signals and collective action tactics Choosing between conciliatory and oppositional leaders: The role of out-group signals and in-group leader candidates’ collective action tactics Leader choice: out-group signals and collective action tactics

In this paper we examine the role of out-group signals and in-group leader tactics in the choice and evaluation of rival in-group leader candidates. Study 1 found preference for a negotiating in-group leader over an oppositional leader, mediated by perceived leader effectiveness and prototypicality. In Study 2 participants chose a leader who had received out-group endorsement and in Studies 3 and 4, participants chose a negotiating in-group leader where the out-group was prepared to negotiate and an oppositional leader where the out-group was not prepared to negotiate. In the latter three studies, there was evidence for participants being strategic in their choices: effects were mediated by effectiveness but not prototypicality. These findings suggest our understanding of collective action will be enriched through attention to the situational cues provided by out-groups, and to the context of competing voices of collective action leadership.
Investigations on Mechanical and Tribological Behaviour of Particulate Filled Glass Fabric Reinforced Epoxy Composites

The aim of the research article is to study the mechanical and two-body abrasive wear behaviour of alumina (Al2O3) filled glass fabric reinforced epoxy (G-E) composites. Alumina filled G-E composites containing 0, 5, 7.5 and 10 wt% were prepared using the hand lay-up technique followed by compression molding. The mechanical properties such as tensile strength, hardness and tensile modulus were investigated in accordance with ASTM standards. Two-body abrasive wear studies were carried out using a pin-on-disc wear tester under multi-pass condition against the water proof silicon carbide abrasive paper. From the experimental investigation, it was found that the presence of Al2O3 filler improved the tensile strength and tensile modulus of the G-E composite. Inclusion of Al2O3 filler reduced the specific wear rate of G-E composite. The results show that in abrasion mode, as the filler loading increases the wear volume decreases and increased with increasing abrading distance. The excellent wear resistance was obtained for Al2O3 filled G-E composites. Furthermore, 10 wt% filler loading gave a very less wear loss. Finally, the scanning electron microscopic observations on the wear mechanisms Al2O3 filled G-E composites was discussed.
A Re-Examination of Driving-Related Attitudes and Readiness to Change Driving Behavior in Older Adults

ABSTRACT Aims: A detailed, in-depth examination of attitudes relevant to driving restriction practices was examined in 928 active drivers aged 70 and older. Method: The number of reported conditions and reasons for restricting driving were examined in relation to theory-based (Transtheoretical Model, Theory of Planned Behavior, TPB) attitudinal constructs. Results: Those more likely to restrict driving consistently showed more negative attitudes toward driving, whereas those less likely to restrict were inconsistent with respect to perceived benefits of driving and social pressure to continue driving. Self-referent attitudes toward driving were more strongly associated with reported restricted driving than attitudes toward driving held in relation to others. Attitudinal constructs from the Transtheoretical Model (TM) were more consistently related to driving restriction than those from the TPB. Conclusion: Theory-based attitudinal constructs are strongly related to driving restriction practices, but longitudinal data is needed to examine in more detail the role of attitudes in the behavior change process.
