Lymphangioleiomyomatosis, a multisystem disease affecting women, is characterized by proliferation of abnormal smooth muscle-like cells in the lungs, leading to cystic destruction of the parenchyma and recurrent pneumothoraces. Clinical characteristics of lymphangioleiomyomatosis patients were analyzed to determine the relationship of pneumothoraces to disease progression. Patients were genotyped for polymorphisms in genes of extracellular matrix proteins collagen, elastin, and matrix metalloproteinase-1 to assess their association with pneumothoraces. Clinical data and polymorphisms in the genes for types I and III collagen, elastin, and matrix metalloproteinase-1 were compared with the prevalence of pneumothorax. Of 227 patients, 57% reported having had at least one pneumothorax. Cyst size on high-resolution computed tomography scans was associated with pneumothorax; patients with a history of pneumothorax were more likely to have larger cysts than patients who had no pneumothoraces. In patients with mild disease, those with a history of pneumothorax had a faster rate of decline in forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1; P = 0.001, adjusted for age) than those without. Genotype frequencies differed between patients with and without pneumothorax for polymorphisms in the types I and III collagen and matrix metalloproteinase-1 genes. Larger cysts may predispose lymphangioleiomyomatosis patients to pneumothorax, which, in early stages of disease, correlates with a more rapid rate of decline in FEV1. Polymorphisms in types I and III collagen and matrix metalloproteinase-1 genes may cause differences in lung extracellular matrix that result in greater susceptibility to pneumothorax.

Published: June 2007

Background: Statins are increasingly used in HIV-infected patients, but the effect of their immunomodulatory properties on antiretroviral-induced immune reconstitution is unknown. Methods: The authors compared 6-month and 1-year changes in CD4 T-cell count, plasma HIV ribonucleic acid (RNA), and serum lipids in 69 HIV-infected patients receiving statins and 127 controls matched by age, nadir CD4 T-cell count, and hepatitis C serostatus. All patients were receiving highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). The authors used standard statistical tests for univariate comparisons and estimated average change in outcome measurements through repeated measures general linear models. Results: Patients receiving statins had significantly higher median CD4 T-cell counts (430 vs 225 cells/µL, P < .001) and lower HIV RNA levels (2.3 vs 2.9 log10 copies/mL, P < .001) than controls. Statin-treated patients had diminished CD4 T-cell gain at 6 months, but this difference was not statistically significant at 12 months, despite similar 12-month virologic success rates. Patients receiving statins gained, on average, an estimated 60 fewer CD4 T-cells in the first 6 months than controls. Conclusions: Exposure to statins was associated with decreased CD4 T-cell gains during HAART in a cohort of HIV-infected patients, despite adequate virologic response. Studies with longer follow-up and detailed metabolic and immunologic monitoring are needed to confirm these findings and assess their significance and mechanisms.
Geographic Information Systems as Media and Society: Does GIS Wear a White or Black Stetson?
Authors: Crumplin William W.
Published: June 2007

There has been much debate over the last 10 to 15 years focused on whether GIS are objective neutral tools or serve as agents of corporate or state interests. Despite the arguments, there has been no clear and decisive outcome, leading some scholars to seek different ways of contextualizing GIS development, use, and research; Daniel Sui and Michael Goodchild are two such scholars. They claim that GIS are media and that, therefore, investigations of GIS can be informed by Marshall McLuhan's theories of media. Their findings are compelling at the macro scale. This paper builds upon their work by applying this concept at the micro level in two case studies: one in India and the other in Minneapolis. The results of this analysis support those of Sui and Goodchild. Therefore, using the GIS as media tetrad (a) underscores the growing importance of GIS as modern forms of communication or media; (b) illustrates to developers, users, and critics of GIS that GIS-based decisions can and do affect specific people in both positive and negative ways; and (c) reminds society and the GIS community of the “reversals” that are possible from unquestioned adoption of GIS and GIS technologies.
Moralpolitik versus Moralpolitik: Recent Struggles over the Construction of Cultural Memory in Germany
Authors: Langenbacher Eric
Published: June 2007

Before the series of 60th anniversary commemorations of the end of the Holocaust, Nazism and World War II in 2005, the big development regarding German collective memories and political culture was the resurgence of memories of German suffering. Contrary to the opinions of prominent observers like W.G. Sebald, this memory, linked to events from the end and immediate aftermath of World War II, is not a repressed or only recently discovered trauma. Rather, the current discussions signal the return of a memory that was culturally hegemonic in the early postwar decades. Nevertheless, the circumstances surrounding this return differ significantly from the postwar situation in which this memory first flourished in three main ways. The altered environment greatly affects both the reception and potential institutionalization of such memory, which could lead to deep political cultural changes.

SBA‐15 (2D hexagonal structure) and KIT‐6 (3D cubic structure) silica materials are used as templates for the synthesis of two different crystalline mesoporous WO3 replicas usable as NO2 gas sensors. High‐resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) studies reveal that single‐crystal hexagonal rings set up the atomic morphology of the WO3 KIT‐6 replica, whereas the SBA‐15 replica is composed of randomly oriented nanoparticles. A model capable of explaining the KIT‐6 replica mesostructure is described. A small amount of chromium is added to the WO3 matrix in order to enhance sensor response. It is demonstrated that chromium does not form clusters, but well‐distributed centers. Pure WO3 KIT‐6 replica displays a higher response rate as well as a lower response time to NO2 gas than the SBA‐15 replica. This behavior is explained by taking into account that the KIT‐6 replica has a higher surface area as demonstrated by Brunauer–Emmett–Teller analyses and its mesostructure is fully maintained after the screen‐printing step involved in sensors preparation. The presence of chromium in the material results in a shorter response time and improved sensor response to the lowest NO2 concentrations tested. Electrical differences related to mesostructure are reduced as a result of additive introduction.

Silicon–carbon composites consisting of Si particles embedded in a dense and non‐porous carbon matrix are prepared by the pyrolysis of intimate mixtures of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) and Si powder at 900 °C under a flow of N2. In contrast to bare micrometer‐sized (1–10 μm) and nanometer‐sized (10–100 nm) Si powders, which show poor cycling behavior with almost no capacity remaining after 15 cycles, the texture of the composite is seen to greatly enhance the reversibility of the alloying reaction of Si with Li. For instance, a capacity of ca. 1000 mA h g–1 is achieved for 20 cycles (0–2.0 V vs. Li+/Li) for a silicon–carbon composite containing nanometer‐sized Si particles. We also demonstrate that a mild manual grinding treatment degrades the cycling performance of the composites to levels as low as the parent Si, even though free Si is not released. The electrochemical measurements in conjunction with Raman spectroscopy data indicate that a huge stress is exerted on the Si domains by the in situ formed carbon. This carbon‐induced stress is found to disappear during the milling of the composites, indicating that the carbon‐induced pressure, along with the accompanying improvement in electrical connectivity, are the key parameters for the improved cycling behavior of Si versus Li.
Surface Imprinting in Layer‐by‐Layer Nanostructured Films
Authors: Shi F. , Liu Z. , Wu G.‐L. , Zhang M. , Chen H. , Wang Z. Q. , Zhang X. , Willner I.
Published: June 2007

In this Full Paper, we develop a novel approach for the generation of stable molecularly imprinted sites in polymeric films by combining the layer‐by‐layer (LbL) technique and photochemical crosslinking of the layered structure. After photo‐crosslinking, the imprinted films show high reproducibility and rapid loading and unloading of imprinted sites by the template molecules. Moreover, the competitive adsorption of template molecules and redox labels into the imprinted film using electrochemical methods indicates that the imprinted film has higher affinity for template molecules. We believe this approach may have some advantages over traditional ways of preparing imprinted sites in polymer matrices and it may open a new avenue for the functionalization of LbL films.
Column configurations of continuous heterogeneous extractive distillation
Authors: Rodriguez‐Donis Ivonne , Papp Katalin , Rev Endre , Lelkes Zoltan , Gerbaud Vincent , Joulia Xavier
Published: June 2007

Increasing regulations and constraints have renewed interest for more efficient distillation process in separating azeotropic mixtures and close boiling components. We investigate the feasibility of heterogeneous extractive distillation process in a continuous column considering several feed point strategies for the entrainer recycle stream and for the main azeotropic feed. Depending on these choices, the heterogeneous distillation column is composed of one, two, or three column sections. A differential mass balance model enables to compute continuous liquid composition profiles of the rectifying, extractive, and stripping sections. Unlike homogeneous extractive distillation, reflux policy composed by a single or both decanted liquid phases is considered as well as the external feeding influence on the composition of the top column liquid stream. Limiting operating conditions of key parameters like the entrainer/feed flowrate ratio and reflux ratio required to obtain a target top and bottom product compositions are obtained. For illustration, separation of acetonitrile–water mixture using butyl acetate as a heavy heterogeneous entrainer is selected. In this case, withdrawal of a saddle binary heteroazeotrope is the main difference of this process compared with the well‐known heterogeneous azeotropic distillation process where the top vapor product is the lower boiling point of the ternary system. © 2007 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 2007
An alternative approach to the modification of talc for the fabrication of polypropylene/talc composites
Authors: Wang Tao , Liu Dan , Keddie Joseph L.
Published: June 2007

We report an alternative method to modify talc for use in the fabrication of composites of polypropylene (PP) and talc. Grinding pulverization is employed to prepare talc fillers (referred to hereafter as p‐talc). The properties of composites made with p‐talc compare favorably with composites made with pulverized talc that has been further treated with a silane coupling agent (referred to as s‐talc). The morphology of PP/p‐talc composites illustrates particle orientation and a uniform dispersion of pulverized talc in the PP matrix. Modulated DSC analysis shows the ability of p‐talc and s‐talc to nucleate PP crystallization. The mechanical properties (i.e., the dynamic modulus, tensile strength, and impact resistance) of the PP/p‐talc composites are very similar to PP/s‐talc composites. The modification of talc by grinding is thus a highly effective alternative method to prepare PP/talc composites that does not require chemical treatment of the talc. The pulverization method is simpler and less expensive in comparison to silane treatment. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 2007
Animating by example
Authors: Lu Difei , Ye Xiuzi , Zhou Guomin
Published: June 2007

In this paper, we propose an example‐driven synthesis approach to create 3D animation of a target character. Our approach consists of the following steps: (a) a sketch‐based mapping between parts of the sources and corresponding portions of the target; (b) calculating the affine matrix of the source mesh for each vertex; (c) deforming the target based on the deformations of the corresponding parts of the sources by means of mean value coordinates. We provide new research contributions on all these topics and integrate them into our newly developed prototype animating system. Our approach is general and does not require the sources and target to share the same number of vertices or triangles, or to have matching connectivity. In our system, source animations can be any 3D animations and the target can even be unstructured or point cloud. Our approach is intuitive and is able to produce highly authentic 3D animations. We demonstrate our approach by constructing a full angel animation video from parts of kid and dolphin animations. Other animating examples produced from our prototype system are also given in the paper to illustrate our approach. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Current–Voltage Characteristics of a Homologous Series of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons
Authors: Böhme Thilo , Simpson Christopher D. , Müllen Klaus , Rabe Jürgen P.
Published: June 2007

A novel alkyl‐substituted polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) with D2h symmetry and 78 carbon atoms in the aromatic core (C78) was synthesized, thereby completing a homologous series of soluble PAH compounds with increasing size of the aromatic π system (42, 60, and 78 carbon atoms). The optical band gaps were determined by UV/Vis and fluorescence spectroscopy in solution. Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy (STS) revealed diode‐like current versus voltage (I–V) characteristics through individual aromatic cores in monolayers at the interface between the solution and the basal plane of graphite. The asymmetry of the current–voltage (I–V) characteristics increases with the increasing size of the aromatic core, and the concomitantly decreasing HOMO–LUMO gap. This is attributed to resonant tunneling through the HOMO of the adsorbed molecule, and an asymmetric position of the molecular species in the tunnel junction. Consistently, submolecularly resolved STM images at negative substrate bias are in good agreement with the calculated pattern for the electron densities of the HOMOs. The analysis provides the basis for tailoring rectification with a single molecule in an STM junction.
The Heteropolytungstate Core {BW13O46}11− Derived as Monomer, Dimer, and Trimer

Published: June 2007

A study of the borotungstate system has led to the characterization of new, original compounds based on the unconventional Keggin derivative [H3BW13O46]8− ion (denoted as 1). [H3BW14O48]6− (2) and the dimer [H6B2W26O90]12− (3) crystallize as mixed cesium/ammonium salts and have been characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis. Anion 2 reveals an unusual arrangement, consisting of an outer {W3O9} core grafted onto the monovacant [BW11O39]9− Keggin moiety and exhibits an unprecedented distorted square‐pyramidal arrangement for a cis‐{WO2} core. Elemental analysis, supported by bond distance analysis, is consistent with the presence of three protons distributed over the terminal oxygens of the outer {W3O7} capping fragment. The [H6B2W26O90]12− ion (3) is formally derived from the direct condensation of two [H3BW13O46]8− subunits. The cisoid arrangement of the two [BW11O39]9− subunits, coupled with the antiparallel arrangement of the two quasi‐linear OW⋅⋅⋅OWOH2 chains within the central {W4O12} connecting group, breaks any symmetry, thereby resulting in a chiral compound. Polarography and pH‐metric titrations reveal the formation of the monomeric precursor [H3BW13O46]8− (anion 1) under stoichiometric conditions. 183W NMR analysis of 2 and 3 in solution gives complex spectra, consistent with the presence of equilibria between several species. In the frame of this study, we also report on a structural re‐investigation of the [H6B3W39O132]15− ion (4) based on reliable results obtained in the solid state by means of single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis, and in solution by means of 1D and 2D COSY 183W NMR. X‐ray diffraction analysis revealed the presence of three attached aquo ligands on the central {W6O15} connecting core, generating three OW⋅⋅⋅OWOH2 quasi‐linear chains, which are responsible for the chirality of the trimeric assembly. This structural arrangement accounts for the 39‐line 183W solution spectrum. The 2D COSY spectrum permits reliable assignments of the six strongly shielded resonances (around −250 and −400 ppm) to the six central W atoms, as well as additional assignments. The origin of such strong shielding for these particular W atoms is discussed on the basis of previously published results. Infrared data for compounds 1, 3, and 4 are also presented.
Catalytic Transfer Hydrogenation with Terdentate CNN Ruthenium Complexes: The Influence of the Base
Authors: Baratta Walter , Siega Katia , Rigo Pierluigi
Published: June 2007

The catalytic activity of the terdentate complex [RuCl(CNN)(dppb)] (A) [dppb=Ph2P(CH2)4PPh2; HCNN=6‐(4′‐methylphenyl)‐2‐pyridylmethylamine] in the transfer hydrogenation of acetophenone (S) with 2‐propanol has been found to be dependent on the base concentration. The limit rate has been observed when NaOiPr is used in high excess (A/base molar ratio > 10). The amino‐isopropoxide species [Ru(OiPr)(CNN)(dppb)] (B), which forms by reaction of A with sodium isopropoxide via displacement of the chloride, is catalytically active. The rate of conversion of acetophenone obeys second‐order kinetics v=k[S][B] with the rate constants in the range 218±8 (40 °C) to 3000±70 M−1 s−1 (80 °C). The activation parameters, evaluated from the Eyring equation are ΔH≠=14.0±0.2 kcal mol−1 and ΔS≠=−3.2 ±0.5 eu. In a pre‐equilibrium reaction with 2‐propanol complex B gives the cationic species [Ru(CNN)(dppb)(HOiPr)]+[OiPr]− (C) with K ≈2×10−5 M. The hydride species [RuH(CNN)(dppb)] (H), which forms from B via β‐hydrogen elimination process, catalyzes the reduction of S and, importantly, its activity increases by addition of base. The catalytic behavior of the hydride H has been compared to that of the system A/NaOiPr (1:1 molar ratio) and indicates that the two systems are equivalent.
