Preparation and characterization of poly(vinylidene fluoride) hollow fiber membranes for vacuum membrane distillation
Authors: Wu Bing , Li K. , Teo W. K.
Published: July 2007

Various asymmetric microporous poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) hollow fiber membranes with different pore sizes and effective porosities were prepared by the phase inversion method using dimethylacetamide (DMAc) as solvent and LiCl and water as additives. The membranes were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) for its microstructure and surface pore size. A gas permeation method was also applied for determining and comparing the effective surface porosity and mean pore size of the different membranes. Moreover, the contact angle with water, critical entry pressure (CEP) of water and collapsing pressure of the PVDF hollow fibers were also determined. Five membrane modules were prepared using the spun hollow fibers and applied in removing 1,1,1‐trichloroethane (TCA) from its aqueous solution by vacuum membrane distillation (VMD) process. The effects of dope composition and spinning conditions on hollow fiber morphology and TCA separation by VMD process are examined. Post‐treating of the spun fibers by solvent exchange using ethanol produced membranes exhibiting higher porosity and higher permeability. A highly porous hollow fiber membrane with a smaller mean pore size can achieve both high TCA permeation flux and high separation factor. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 2007
Synthesis, Physicochemical and Anticonvulsant Properties of New N‐4‐Arylpiperazin‐1‐yl Amides of (2‐Aza‐1,3‐dioxospiro[4.4]non‐2‐yl)‐ and [4.5]dec‐2‐yl)‐propionic Acid

Published: July 2007

In continuation of the search of new anticonvulsants, a series of N‐4‐arylpiperazin‐1‐yl 2‐aza‐1,3‐dioxospiro[4.4]non‐2‐yl‐ (5–8) and [4.5]dec‐2‐yl‐ (9–15) propionamides, structurally related to the previously described N‐4‐arylpiperazin‐1‐yl amides of 2‐aza‐1,3‐dioxospiro[4.5]dec‐2‐yl‐acetic acid, were synthesized. The designed compounds 5–15 were prepared by condensation of the formerly obtained (2‐aza‐1,3‐dioxospiro[4.5]dec‐2‐yl)‐ (3) and (2‐aza‐1,3‐dioxo[4.4]non‐2‐yl)‐(4) propionic acids with the appropriately substituted 4‐arylpiperazines, in the presence of the N,N‐carbonyldiimidazole (CDIM) reagent. All the compounds were tested for their anticonvulsant activity in the maximum electroshock seizure (MES) and subcutaneous pentylenetetrazole (scPTZ) seizure threshold tests. Several compounds 7–10, 13 and 14 revealed protection in the MES screening.
Organocatalytic Asymmetric Nitroaldol Reaction: Cooperative Effects of Guanidine and Thiourea Functional Groups
Authors: Sohtome Yoshihiro , Takemura Nobuko , Takada Keisuke , Takagi Rika , Iguchi Toshitsugu , Nagasawa Kazuo
Published: July 2007

Catalytic enantio‐ and diastereoselective nitroaldol reactions were explored by using designed guanidine–thiourea bifunctional organocatalysts under mild and operationally simple biphasic conditions. These catalytic asymmetric reactions have a broad substrate generality with respect to the variety of aldehydes and nitroalkanes. Based on this catalytic nitroaldol process, straightforward syntheses of cytoxazone and 4‐epi‐cytoxazone were achieved. These catalytic nitroaldol reactions require KI as an additive for highly asymmetric induction; it operates by inhibiting the retro mode of the reaction. On the basis of studies of structure and catalytic‐activity relationships, a plausible guanidine–thiourea cooperative mechanism and a transition state of the catalytic reactions are proposed. Drastic substituent effects on the catalytic properties of this catalyst may lead to the development of new chiral surfactants.
A Two‐Dimensional Coordination Compound as a Zinc Ion Selective Luminescent Probe for Biological Applications
Authors: Dhara Koushik , Karan Santanu , Ratha Jagnyeswar , Roy Partha , Chandra Goutam , Manassero Mario , Mallik Biswanath , Banerjee Pradyot
Published: July 2007

A 2D coordination compound {[Cu2(HL)(N3)]⋅ClO4}∞ (1; H3L=2,6‐bis(hydroxyethyliminoethyl)‐4‐methyl phenol) was synthesized and characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction to be a polymer in the crystalline state. Each [Cu2(HL)(N3)]+ species is connected to its adjacent unit by a bridging alkoxide oxygen atom of the ligand to form a helical propagation along the crystallographic a axis. The adjacent helical frameworks are connected by a ligand alcoholic oxygen atom along the crystallographic b axis to produce pleated 2D sheets. In solution, 1 dissociates into [Cu2(HL)2(H3L)]⋅2H2O (2); the monomer displays high selectivity for Zn2+ and can be used in HEPES buffer (pH 7.4) as a zinc ion selective luminescent probe for biological application. The system shows a nearly 19‐fold Zn2+‐selective chelation‐enhanced fluorescence response in the working buffer. Application of 2 to cultured living cells (B16F10 mouse melanoma and A375 human melanoma) and rat hippocampal slices was also studied by fluorescence microscopy.
Nonexpected utility as aversion of information
Authors: Wakker Peter
Published: July 2007

This paper argues that a violation of the independence condition, used by von Neumann and Morgenstern to characterize expected utility maximization, will always lead to the existence of choice situations in which information‐aversion is exhibited.
Knowledge, probability, and credibility
Authors: Schum David A.
Published: July 2007

This paper concerns study of the credibility of human sources of evidence and its relation to the inferential value of testimony they provide. From a certain view of 'knowledge' in epistemology comes the suggestion that credibility assessment can be construed as a cascaded inference in which attributes of human source credibility are identified. Scholarship from evidence law in jurisprudence suggests an evidential basis for credibility assessment in terms of these attributes. Applying Bayes' rule to this cascaded inference offers a way of expressing and combining credibility‐related beliefs in the process of assessing the inferential value of evidence.
The need for contextual and technical knowledge in judgmental forecasting
Authors: Sanders Nada R. , Ritzman Larry P.
Published: July 2007

The purpose of this research is to assess the extent to which judgmental forecasts are improved by having more contextual and technical knowledge. Contextual information is knowledge gained by practitioners through experience on the job, consisting of general forecasting experience in the industry as well as specific product knowledge. Technical knowledge is knowledge about data analysis and formal forecasting procedures, including information on how to analyze data judgmentally. We directly compared judgmental forecasts of business practitioners with those generated by students, using 22 real‐world time series. The practitioners had considerable contextual but no technical knowledge. The students had no contextual but two different levels of technical knowledge. We also generated forecasts with statistical methods to benchmark performance. Results show that contextual knowledge is particularly important in making good judgmental forecasts, while technical knowledge has little value. Practitioner forecasts are better than student forecasts in almost all comparisons. A decisive factor affecting forecast performance appears to be data variability, measured by the coefficient of variation of the time‐series data. As the variability of a time series increases, the performance of all forecasts deteriorates, but judgmental forecasts by practitioners become more preferable. Statistical methods have difficulty achieving reasonable forecasts when the data are more variable, whereas judgemental forecasts reinforced by contextual information do relatively well. Data variability is one explanation for the mixed findings of past studies, relative to how well statistical techniques compare with judgment as a forecasting method.
The effect of explicit probabilities on decision weights and on the reflection effect
Authors: Erev Ido , Wallsten Thomas S.
Published: July 2007

An experiment is presented that explores the finding that a request to judge probabilities can bias subsequent decisions (Erev et al., 1993). Subjects chose among gambles whose outcomes were determined by the occurrence of events in a video game environment. The probabilities of the events could be assessed based on the visual display. In the no‐probabilities condition the subjects simply indicated their choices. In the subjective‐probability condition subjects first estimated probabilities and then made choices. In the objective‐probability condition, subjects saw the actual probabilities instead of the events when making their choices. The results suggest that the availability of explicit probabilities (both subjective and objectives) decreases the subjects sensitivity to the outcome dimension and, hence, increases the reflection effect; i.e. subjects in the subjective‐and objective‐probability conditions showed stronger risk aversion when the gambles involved possible profit and stronger risk seeking when the gambles involved possible losses than in the no‐probabilities condition. In addition, the subjective assessments impaired the quality of the decisions in term of the subjects expected profit. Theoretical and practical implications of the results are discussed.
What is wrong with Allais' Certainty Effect?
Authors: Li Shu
Published: July 2007

Several choice situations are constructed to explore whether the violation of expected utility theory in an Allais paradox choice situation can be attributed to what Tversky and Kahneman (1986) describe as the Allais certainty effect. Problems are developed where the Allais certainty effect would be expected to occur but results show it does not. Other problems demonstrate that the Allais ‘paradox’ is observed in the absence of the Allais certainty effect. The study concludes that, although expected utility theory is known to be wrong through the Allais paradox, the Allais certainty effect does not appear to be able to rescue it.
Ambiguity seeking in multi‐attribute decisions: Effects of optimism and message framing
Authors: Bier Vicki M. , Connell Brad L.
Published: July 2007

This paper investigates the influence of message framing and personality variables on preferences over ambiguity in the context of multi‐attribute decision scenarios. Undergraduate subjects responded to scenarios in which one of two medical treatments was associated with ambiguous probabilities of treatment effects. Probabilities were either positively or negatively framed. Subjects indicated their degree of preference for one treatment over the other. Subjects' optimism, trait anxiety, health locus of control, need for cognitive structure, and current mood were measured. In two separate studies, subjects preferred ambiguity when probabilities were positively framed, and were neutral toward ambiguity when probabilities were negatively framed. Also, in both studies the preference for ambiguity in positively framed scenarios was greater for more optimistic subjects. The unexpected finding of ambiguity seeking may be associated with the use of different decision strategies in multi‐attribute versus single‐attribute decisions.
Shattering the illusion of control: Multi‐shot versus single‐shot gambles
Authors: Koehler Jonathan J. , Gibbs Brian J. , Hogarth Robin M.
Published: July 2007

The illusion of control refers to a phenomenon whereby people believe their chances of success at a task are greater than would be warranted by objective analysis. This article raises two questions. First, how robust is the illusion of control? Second, how might the illusion be ‘shattered?’ Previous experimental demonstrations involved situations that can be likened to unique or single‐shot gambles. If, however, the phenomenon is robust, it should occur in repeated or multi‐shot gambles in which the outcome depends on a series of gambles involving the same underlying random process. It should also appear in single‐shot gambles that are framed so as to superficially resemble multi‐shot gambles. We label this the strong illusion of control hypothesis. On the other hand, because people have a better appreciation of probabilistic concepts in tasks they are able to represent as relative frequencies, the introduction of a multi‐shot or ‘pseudo‐multi‐shot’ context might cue people to the random nature of the task, thereby shattering the illusion. The weak illusion of control hypothesis holds that the illusion of control will occur in single‐shot but not in multi‐shot or pseudo‐multi‐shot gambles. Two studies are reported that support the weak hypothesis. Alternative explanations are considered and implications are discussed.
Decision making in a dynamic situation: The effect of false alarms and time pressure
Authors: Kerstholt José H.
Published: July 2007

An experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of a priori probability of false alarms and time pressure on decision‐making behaviour in a dynamic task environment. In order to assess whether strategy selection in a dynamic task environment would be adaptive, we modelled the task mathematically, and compared actual decision strategies to the optimal ones. In addition to the selected strategy, we also studied decision‐making behaviour at a lower operational level, reflecting the amount of effort subjects are willing to spend on the decision process. Subjects were required to monitor the fitness level of a simulated athlete, who was running a race, and had to provide treatments whenever the athlete's fitness level suggested a real physiological problem. When a decline of the athlete's fitness was caused by a false alarm, a spontaneous recovery would occur after some time, without any need for intervention. Time pressure was manipulated by the rate at which the athlete's fitness level declined. Overall, subjects did not select the most efficient strategy: they dominantly selected information before applying an action, even though it would have been more profitable, and less effortful, just to apply actions. At the operational level, subjects appeared to invest less effort when the probability of false alarms increased and to invest more effort when time pressure increased. However, in contrast to the outcomes of our mathematical model, subjects adjusted the amount of intervention to the a priori probability of false alarms and not to time pressure. Together, the results indicate that the selection of a decision strategy in a dynamic task is less adaptive then is generally concluded from studies with static tasks.
Role of ultrasonography in the detection of resectable recurrence after hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastases
Authors: Mann C D , Metcalfe M S , Neal C P , Rees Y , Dennison A R , Berry D P
Published: July 2007

Background

Recurrence develops in most patients after hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastases. Repeat resection is feasible in some of these patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate an ultrasound-based follow-up protocol in the detection of resectable recurrent disease.

Methods

All patients undergoing hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastases at a single hepatobiliary referral centre in the UK from January 1999 to December 2004 were identified. Variables reviewed included rates of recurrence, mode and timing of detection, rates of repeat hepatectomy and survival.

Results

During the study period 191 patients underwent initial resection of colorectal liver metastases, of whom 109 developed recurrent disease. In total, 21 patients underwent potentially curative intervention, including 16 hepatic resections, four pulmonary resections and one staged pulmonary/hepatic resection. Ten of 72 patients who presented with recurrent disease within 12 months after initial resection were amenable to curative resection, compared with 11 of 37 patients presenting after 12 months. Sonographic surveillance identified all of the potentially resectable recurrent hepatic disease in the series.

Conclusion

Ultrasonography is effective in the detection of potentially resectable hepatic recurrence after hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastases; however, routine chest imaging is needed.
The generic description and management of interaction between autonomous agents and objects in an informed virtual environment
Authors: Badawi M. , Donikian S.
Published: July 2007

Autonomous agents cannot exist in an environment without interacting with the world surrounding them. In this paper we propose an informed environment based on synoptic objects which contain a synopsis of the interactions they can undergo. Through the use of interactive surfaces (ISs) we manage to describe the surfaces of interest on the object itself and the space affected by the object during interaction. Then, by defining a set of seven basic actions, the objects can describe the interaction process through these actions to any agent implementing them. The description of the interaction process is done through complex actions which indicate the order in which the basic actions need to be accomplished and what to do depending on the result of the undertaken action.

Comparative Molecular and Phytochemical Study of the Tree Species Santalum austrocaledonicum (Santalaceae) Distributed in the New‐Caledonian Archipelago
Authors: Bottin Lorraine , Isnard Camille , Lagrange Alexandre , Bouvet Jean‐Marc
Published: July 2007

We have tried to elucidate the origin of phytochemical variation in trees by studying concomitantly the chemical and microsatellite variations in Santalum austrocaledonicum. Eight natural populations were sampled in the New‐Caledonian archipelago, a total of 157 individuals being analyzed. The main components, as revealed by gas chromatography (GC), were α‐ and β‐santalol (as in other sandalwood species), although the level of (Z)‐lanceol was particularly high. Most of the chemical variation was observed within populations (83.7%). With microsatellites, the variation between populations was more pronounced (32% of the total variation). Although the chemical variation between populations was small, we investigated the effects of genetic drift and migration by comparing the chemical‐ and molecular‐differentiation patterns. The poor congruence between neighbor‐joining trees, confirmed by the non‐significant Mantel test between the molecular and chemical distance matrices (R=0.26, P=0.12), showed that genetic drift and migration are not the main evolutionary forces acting on chemical differentiation between populations. We could not find any effect of soil and rainfall conditions neither.

Although the impact of drift and migration cannot be discounted in rationalizing between‐population differentiation, the low variation among populations could result from a stabilizing selection caused by the same phytopathogen charge across the natural range.

Published: July 2007

Background: We report a multi‐institutional experience with intravascular stenting (IS) for treatment of coarctation of the aorta. Methods and Results: Data was collected retrospectively by review of medical records from 17 institutions. The data was broken down to prior to 2002 and after 2002 for further analysis. A total of 565 procedures were performed with a median age of 15 years (mean = 18.1 years). Successful reduction in the post stent gradient (<20 mm Hg) or increase in post stent coarctation to descending aorta (DAo) ratio of >0.8 was achieved in 97.9% of procedures. There was significant improvement (P < 0.01) in pre versus post stent coarctation dimensions (7.4 mm ± 3.0 mm vs. 14.3 ± 3.2mm), systolic gradient (31.6 mm Hg ± 16.0 mm Hg vs. 2.7 mm Hg ± 4.2 mm Hg) and ratio of the coarctation segment to the DAo (0.43 ± 0.17 vs. 0.85 ± 0.15). Acute complications were encountered in 81/565 (14.3%) procedures. There were two procedure related deaths. Aortic wall complications included: aneurysm formation (n = 6), intimal tears (n = 8), and dissections (n = 9). The risk of aortic dissection increased significantly in patients over the age of 40 years. Technical complications included stent migration (n = 28), and balloon rupture (n = 13). Peripheral vascular complications included cerebral vascular accidents (CVA) (n = 4), peripheral emboli (n = 1), and significant access arterial injury (n = 13). Older age was significantly associated with occurrence of CVAs. A significant decrease in the technical complication rate from 16.3% to 6.1% (P < 0.001) was observed in procedures performed after January 2002. Conclusions: Stent placement for coarctation of aorta is an effective treatment option, though it remains a technically challenging procedure. Technical and aortic complications have decreased over the past 3 years due to, in part, improvement in balloon and stent design. Improvement in our ability to assess aortic wall compliance is essential prior to placement of ISs in older patients with coarctation of the aorta. © 2007 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
