Influence of Solution Heat Treatment on the Microstructure, Hardness and Stress Corrosion Behavior of Extruded Resoloy®
Authors: Maier P. , Steinacker A. , Clausius B. , Hort N. 
Published: February 2020

AbstractThe microstructural changes and corrosion response of Resoloy®, a resorbable Mg-Dy-based alloy, are the focus of this study. Hardness, tensile and compressive, and bending tests are used to monitor the changes in the mechanical properties of this material. The corrosion behavior is investigated by stress corrosion of C-rings. Hot-extruded tubes are solution heat-treated at different temperatures and times. The as-extruded condition shows a homogeneous fine-grained microstructure with matrix long-period stacking-ordered (LPSO) structures. Heat treatment at low temperatures and for short times does not significantly change the microstructure but reduces the hardness. Solution heat treatment at relatively high annealing temperatures and long annealing times causes grain growth, resulting in reduced hardness. The microstructure becomes inhomogeneous, medium-sized grains grow, the matrix LPSO structures dissolve, and small bulk LPSO phases develop. The matrix LPSO structures have a positive effect on the corrosion behavior. In particular, the short-term annealing condition shows the most uniform corrosion morphology. Resoloy® is not free of pitting corrosion, but none of the samples fails by cracking.

AbstractThis paper details the first breast implant-associated anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) case detected in Japan. The patient, a 67-year-old Japanese woman, was diagnosed with left unilateral breast cancer 17 years ago. Induration and redness presented in the left breast, which had undergone immediate breast reconstructive surgery using a tissue expander, later replaced by a silicone breast implant (SBI). Breast ultrasound showed fluid collection around the SBI. Surgery was performed to remove the left breast implant and the fragmented capsule surrounding the implant. Postoperative pathological findings did not indicate malignancy. Nine months later, a contralateral axillary lymphadenopathy was observed, and an excisional biopsy of the axillary lymph node was performed. The patient was diagnosed with BIA-ALCL and successfully underwent adjuvant CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone) chemotherapy.

AbstractThis assessment of the volumetric potential of the oil shales of Tremembé Formation (Oligocene, Taubaté Basin, Brazil) was based on the sedimentological study of 2457 total organic carbon and 1007 Rock–Eval pyrolysis analyses of core samples from nine survey wells drilled in the central portion of Taubaté Basin. Along a 240-m-thick package in the upper part of Tremembé Formation, thirteen chemostratigraphic units with thicknesses varying from 10 to 35 m were identified. The upper interval (unit L), 30 m thick, exhibited the highest organic content and original generation potential and was thus studied in detail. In unit L, oil yield maps were constructed, seeking to identify the most attractive areas for industrially exploiting the oil shales, and volumetric calculations employing a probabilistic Monte Carlo method were conducted to quantify the potentially recoverable oil volume. Three exploratory scenarios based on yield values (S1 + S2) were considered for calculating the oil volumes, seeking to offer different exploratory scenarios for decision making. For the scenario that considered only average yields above 100 mg HC/g rock, the recoverable oil volume is 525 million bbl (P90) to 884 million bbl (P10); for the scenario that considered only average yields above 80 mg HC/g rock, the recoverable oil volume is 1.4 billion bbl (P90) to 2.6 billion bbl (P10); and for the scenario that considered only average yields above 60 mg HC/g rock, the recoverable oil volume is 3.6 billion bbl (P90) to 5.4 billion bbl (P10).
A model for calculating bottom-hole pressure from simple surface data in pumped wells
Authors: El-Saghier Rana M. , Abu El Ela Mahmoud , El-Banbi Ahmed 
Published: February 2020

AbstractBottom-hole flowing pressure and pump intake pressure (PIP) are important parameters to optimize the performance of oil wells. In recent years, downhole sensors are becoming widely used in electrical submersible pump systems to measure these pressures. However, it is still rare to use downhole sensors in sucker rod and progressive cavity pumped wells. In this study, two correlations were developed to calculate bottom-hole flowing pressure and PIP from readily available field data. The two correlations do not require measurements of buildup tests, but they rely on measuring the dynamic fluid level and estimating fluid gradient correction factor using either (1) the tubing gas flow rate or (2) the annular gas flow rate. Then, the PIP is calculated by the summation of either (1) the tubing pressure plus the tubing gaseous liquid column pressure or (2) the casing pressure, annular gas column pressure and the annular gaseous liquid column pressure. The correlations were developed using 419 field data points (389 points for training and 30 for testing) of wide range for each input parameter. Using the training data, the mean absolute percentage deviation (MAPD) between the calculated and measured PIPs is 25% and 20% for the first and second correlations, respectively. However, the testing data showed MAPD of 33% and 12% for the first and second correlations, respectively. The accuracy of these correlations is significantly higher than that of the previously available methods, and the correlations require simpler input. Such study is an original contribution to calculate the PIP with improved accuracy and without downhole pressures sensors.
Highways and Byways in the History of High Rate Mechanical Testing
Authors: Walley Stephen M. 
Published: February 2020

AbstractUp until the Industrial Revolution, the dynamic mechanical properties of materials were only of importance in warfare, particularly after the powder-driven gun was invented. With the invention of the steam engine, the explosion of steam boilers (which is similar to the explosion of cannon) became a concern. When railways began to be built, the lack of knowledge of the dynamic properties of the iron alloys used in rails and railway bridges was understood to be a problem, but no way of measuring them was devised until the end of the nineteenth century. Ingenious mechanical (and later electromechanical) methods of recording signals onto rotating drums or moving smoked glass plates began to be developed from the middle of the nineteenth century onwards. Optical/photographic methods of recording information from dynamic experiments date from the 1890s. The rod-on-anvil technique (later named after Taylor) was developed in France at the beginning of the twentieth century but not mathematically analysed until the 1940s. The Hopkinson pressure bar was invented just before the start of the First World War and found to be useful in improving British artillery shells. It was then forgotten about until the Second World War when a two-bar version was developed for measuring the dynamic properties of soft materials such as explosives and polyethylene. As the story of high rate mechanical testing from about 1950 onwards is quite well known to the high rate testing community, this date is taken as the end point of this article.
FAMILY, NATION BUILDING, AND CITIZENSHIP: THE LEGAL REPRESENTATION OF MUSLIM WOMEN IN THE BAN AGAINST THE BIGAMY CLAUSE OF 1951
Authors: Aburabia Rawia 
Published: February 2020

AbstractThis article focuses on the representations and perceptions of Muslim Palestinian women as encapsulated by early Israeli legislation. The analysis is based on a close reading of the negotiations and discussions leading up to the criminalization of bigamy by the Israeli state and, in particular, those principal discussions surrounding the legislation of the Women's Equal Rights Law of 1951. Primary materials from the Israeli State Archives are used to reconstruct the debates in the Knesset, assess the legislation's intended effects on the Muslim Palestinian family, and trace the opposition to it fielded by the Palestinian religious leadership. The legislative process is dissected to expose the implicit and explicit patriarchal and nationalized underpinnings of the image of the “ideal family” fashioned by Israeli legislators. Despite their national divide, I argue, both the Israeli Knesset and the Muslim community leadership articulated women's roles in similarly distinctive national-patriarchal hues.
Propositional Attitudes as Commitments: Unleashing Some Constraints
Authors: Kazemi Alireza 
Published: February 2020

ABSTRACTIn a series of articles, Asbjørn Steglich-Petersen and Nick Zangwill argue that, since propositional attitude (PA) ascription judgements do not behave like normative judgements in being subject toa priorinormative supervenience and the Because Constraint, PAs cannot be constitutively normative.1I argue that, for a specific version of normativism, according to which PAs are normative commitments, these arguments fail. To this end, I argue that commitments and obligations should be distinguished. Then, I show that the intuitions allegedly governing all normative judgements do not even purport to hold for commitment-attributing judgements.
Closure of India–Asia collision margin along the Shyok Suture Zone in the eastern Karakoram: new geochemical and zircon U–Pb geochronological observations

Published: February 2020

AbstractNew whole-rock geochemical analyses along with laser ablation multi-collector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry U–Pb zircon ages of the granite–rhyolite from the Karakoram Batholith, exposed along the Shyok Valley, NW India, have been performed to understand the timing and geochemical evolution of these magmatic bodies and their implications for the geodynamic evolution of the Karakoram Batholith. New geochronological data on granites and rhyolites along with previously published geochronological data indicate that the Karakoram Batholith evolved during Albian time (~110–100 Ma) owing to the subduction of Tethys oceanic lithosphere along the Shyok Suture Zone. This region witnessed a period of no magmatism during ~99–85 Ma. Following this, the Kohistan–Ladakh arc and Karakoram Batholith evolved as a single entity in Late Cretaceous and early Palaeogene times. Late Cretaceous (~85 Ma) rhyolite intrusions within the Karakoram Batholith show calc-alkaline subduction-related signatures with a highly peraluminous nature (molar A/CNK = 1.42–1.81). These intrusions may have resulted fromc. ~13.8 % to ~34.5 % assimilation of pre-existing granites accompanied by fractional crystallization during the ascent of the magma. The contamination of mantle wedge-derived melts with crust of the active continental margin of the Karakoram most likely enhanced the high peraluminous nature of the rhyolite magma, as has been constrained by assimilation fractional crystallization modelling. Two granite samples from the contact of the Shyok Metamorphic Complex and Karakoram Batholith indicate that the post-collisional Miocene magmatism was not only confined along the Karakoram Fault zone but also extends ~30 km beyond the Shyok–Muglib strand.
Which measure of socioeconomic status best predicts bilingual lexical abilities and how? A focus on four-year-olds exposed to two majority languages
Authors: GATT Daniela , BALDACCHINO Roberta , DODD Barbara 
Published: February 2020

AbstractThis study evaluates the ability of different measures of socioeconomic status (SES) to predict lexical outcomes for preschoolers raised in a context of nationwide bilingualism. The participants were 58 children aged 3;11–4;3 from Maltese-dominant homes who attended state preschools. Receptive picture name judgement and picture naming, in Maltese and English, were employed to measure receptive and expressive lexical abilities, respectively. Lexical outcomes for four individual SES variables and a single composite SES measure were similar but not directly interchangeable. The composite SES variable emerged as most strongly predictive of children's lexical performance. Receptive judgement of phonological accuracy improved similarly in both languages with higher composite SES. Naming skills increased significantly in English but not in Maltese, suggesting differences in English input related to parental SES. A focus on SES in relation to lexical skills in two majority languages is novel and adds to current understanding of normative bilingual acquisition.
Successful thoracic duct embolisation in a child with recurrent massive pericardial effusion diagnosed as a lymphatic anomaly
Authors: Lee Jue Seong , Song Mi Kyoung , Hur Saebeom 
Published: February 2020

AbstractA 29-month-old girl had idiopathic massive pericardial effusion for over 6 months. Lymphangiography was performed for chronic and recurrent pericardial effusion and pulmonary lymphangiectasia, suspected based on CT findings. Magnetic resonance lymphangiography revealed chylolymphatic reflux from a tortuously dilated thoracic duct in the mediastinum to the pericardial space, suggesting primary chylopericardium with lymphangiectasia. Pericardial effusion resolved immediately after thoracic duct embolisation at the lower thoracic level. However, pericardial effusion recurred after 5 months, which resolved after additional embolisation of the abnormal lymphatic collateral vessels from the remnant upper thoracic duct. Here, we report an unusual case with chylous massive pericardial effusion diagnosed by magnetic resonance lymphangiography and treated with percutaneous embolisation.

Published: February 2020

AbstractObjective:Over half of pregnant women in India are affected by anaemia, which can lead to premature birth, low birth weight and maternal and child mortality. Using formative research, we aimed to understand social and cultural factors around iron and folic acid (IFA) supplement provision and adherence to identify potential strategies for improving adherence and behaviours to prevent and treat anaemia among pregnant and lactating Indian women.Design:In-depth interviews and focus group discussions with women and key informant interviews with health officials and workers.Setting:Four districts in two Indian states: Allahabad and Bara Banki districts in Uttar Pradesh and Chikkballapura and Mandya districts in Karnataka.Participants:Pregnant and lactating women (n 65) and district officials and community health workers (n 14).Results:Most women were aware of anaemia but did not understand its seriousness and consequences. All women received IFA supplements (predominantly for free), but many were not adherent because of side effects; lack of information from healthcare providers on the causes of anaemia, its seriousness and solutions and low social support. To address anaemia, women were most confident in their ability to prepare and eat healthier foods but lacked control over resources such as appropriate food availability.Conclusions:Based on the findings, we recommend multicomponent interventions to train healthcare providers, address systemic barriers and involve family members to support IFA supplement adherence and dietary changes. Future research will determine which strategies are most effective to reduce the burden of anaemia in India among pregnant and lactating women.
History of tobacco, vitamin D and women
Authors: Manavi Kiano Reza , Alston-Mills Brenda Pauline , Thompson Marvin Paul 
Published: February 2020

Abstract. Tobacco usage kills more than 8 million people a year. Approximately 7 million of those deaths are the result of direct tobacco use, while approximately 1.2 million are the result of non-smokers being exposed to second-hand smoke. About 200 million of the world’s one billion smokers are women and usage among women is increasing in some countries. Nicotine from smoking tobacco, specifically its metabolite cotinine, has negative effects on human health causing lung cancer, COPD and non-respiratory problems. Over a billion people worldwide are Vitamin D deficient or insufficient, which is prevalent across all age-groups, geographic regions, and sunlight. With the discovery of Vitamin D in 1919, a new chapter in the prevention of rickets was introduced opening the door to its therapeutic properties for other diseases. Since 1919, there have been many clinical and epidemiolocal studies performed globally on the effect of the vitamin on prevention of other diseases, including but not limited to, cancer, autoimmune disorders, cardiovascular diseases, and osteoporosis. Exposure to environmental tobacco smoke has been associated with reduced levels of Vitamin D in the blood stream and sinus tissues. Manavi et al. (2015) demonstrated that among three smoking categories (heavy, light, non-smokers), black female heavy smokers have lower vitamin D (13.374 ng/ml), than Hispanic (19.213 ng/ml) or white (24.929 ng/ml) females correlating to higher levels of cotinine. Therefore, blood serum concentrations of cotinine contribute to decreased Vitamin D concentrations in addition to other factors such as gender and ethnicity.

Abstract. Nowadays, glycine is used in nutritional supplements and to attenuate chronic complications of diabetes and obesity; however, its use has side effects as insulin resistance. Our aim was to evaluate the effect of chronic glycine supplementation on insulin, glucose and triglyceride levels in healthy Wistar rats. Groups were: Control (C), that received sterilized water only, glycine (GG), that received 1% glycine and taurine (TG), that received 0.5% taurine during 6 months (n = 10). Our results showed no differences in plasma insulin levels after six months of supplementation (C: 13.22 ± 2.0; GG: 11.4 ± 2.0; TG: 11.13 ± 2.0 ng/ml; p = 0.64). Likewise, neither glucose plasma concentration (C: 99.9 ± 3.9 mg/dl; GG: 104.3 ± 4.3 mg/dl; TG: 104.5 ± 4.8 mg/dl) (p = 0.88) nor triglyceride levels (C: 58.4 ± 5.6 mg/dl; GG: 46.9 ± 2.3 mg/dl; TG: 50.68 ± 3.3 mg/dl), showed differences after six months supplementation (p = 0.22). Furthermore, the analysis of glycine (C: 80 ± 24.6; GG: 83.9 ± 25.9; TG: 90.7 ± 13.5 nmol/ml) (p = 0.19) and taurine (C: 169 ± 15.17; GG: 148.7 ± 23.9; TG: 165.8 ± 22.5 nmol/ml) (p = 0.4) in the plasma of animals with supplementation showed no significant changes. Additionally, general urine tests and histological analysis of liver or kidneys showed no alterations. In conclusion, chronic supplementation with 1% glycine did not have any significant detrimental side effects in our model. However, more studies are still necessary to evaluate the effect of 1% glycine supplementation in humans.

AbstractSelinexor is an oral, small molecule inhibitor of the nuclear export protein exportin 1 with demonstrated activity in hematologic and solid malignancies. Side effects associated with selinexor include nausea, vomiting, fatigue, diarrhea, decreased appetite, weight loss, thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, and hyponatremia. We reviewed 437 patients with multiple myeloma treated with selinexor and assessed the kinetics of adverse events and impact of supportive care measures. Selinexor reduced both platelets and neutrophils over the first cycle of treatment and reached a nadir between 28 and 42 days. Platelet transfusions and thrombopoietin receptor agonists were effective at treating thrombocytopenia, and granulocyte colony stimulating factors were effective at resolving neutropenia. The onset of gastrointestinal side effects (nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea) was most common during the first 1–2 weeks of treatment. Nausea could be mitigated with 5-HT3 antagonists and either neurokinin 1 receptor antagonists, olanzapine, or cannbainoids. Loperamide and bismuth subsalicylate ameliorated diarrhea. The primary constitutional side effects of fatigue and decreased appetite could be managed with methylphenidate, megestrol, cannabinoids or olanzapine, respectively. Hyponatremia was highly responsive to sodium replacement. Selinexor has well-established adverse effects that mainly occur within the first 8 weeks of treatment, are reversible, and respond to supportive care.
