Real perception or perceptive accommodation?
Authors: Ortiz López Luis A. , Martínez Pedraza Cristina 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
Dominicans in Puerto Rico have opted for closed
spaces due to their social marginalization. Nonetheless, their
interactions with Puerto Ricans has facilitated a Domini-Rican
continuum. This research examines speech data, to compare dialect
recognition and linguistic perceptions of Puerto Ricans toward the
varieties in this continuum. During a verbal-guise task, 24 Puerto
Ricans listened to five stimuli of the Domini-Rican continuum and
answered items about extralinguistic variables: nationality, social
class, educational level, intelligence and speech affability.
Results support that linguistic production (i) allows individuals to
distinguish dialects and (ii) facilitates the acceptance criteria of
immigrants and their descendants. The data suggests that perceptions
and attitudes are correlated with the characteristics of both
stimuli and participants, mainly the perception of nationality.
Andean Spanish and Provinciano identity
Authors: Salcedo Arnaiz Daniela 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
The present perception study provides an
approach to the language attitudes and ideologies that both Limeños
and Andean migrants have towards a selection of (stigmatized)
morphosyntactic features from Andean Spanish, in order to propose a
definition for Provinciano identity. I collected
data using a Matched-Guise task. The findings show that people
perceive Andean Spanish as an ‘incorrect’ Spanish spoken mostly by
Andean migrants, which allegedly share stereotypical characteristics
such as a low level of education, indigenous race and poverty. Both
the relevant literature and my fieldwork research indicate that
(Andean) identity is undeniably conditioned by location, ethnicity,
level of education, and race, as well as all the processes,
relationships and social interactions that take place in Lima.
On the effects of Catalan contact in the variable expression of
Spanish future tense
Authors: Enrique-Arias Andrés , Guerrero Beatriz Méndez 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
This paper aims to test the influence of
Catalan-Spanish bilingualism in the variable distribution of the
morphological future (MF) cantaré and the
periphrastic variant (PF) voy a cantar in Spanish.
As Catalan does not have a PF, it has been suggested that in the
areas where Spanish coexists with Catalan the MF is relatively more
used. A contrastive study of a bilingual community (Palma de
Mallorca) and a Spanish monolingual one (Alcalá de Henares) confirms
this hypothesis: the frequency of use of the MF among bilinguals is
double what it is in a non-contact setting. At the same time,
however, the two speech communities yield similar results in regard
to the semantic values associated to each of the forms.
The emergence and routinization of complex
syntactic patterns formed with
ajatella ‘think’ and
tietää ‘know’ in Finnish
talk-in-interaction
Authors: Laury Ritva , Helasvuo Marja-Liisa 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
Our paper concerns two Finnish cognitive
verbs, ajatella ‘think’, and
tietää ‘know’. We show that both
verbs are most likely to occur in the first person
singular form but behave differently with respect to
polarity: tietää occurs most
commonly in the negated form (56%), while
ajatella is only rarely negated
(less than 4%). The verbs also differ with respect
to their sequential emergence and complementation,
with tietää ‘to know’ occurring
nearly half of the time in responsive position and
without complements. Each of the most common formats
of the verbs builds or projects a specific social
action. The patterns of clause combining, in this
case, complementation or lack of it, are closely
connected to the locally contingent employment of
action.
The insubordinate – subordinate continuum
Authors: Maschler Yael 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
This chapter examines the continuum
stretching between Hebrew syntactically integrated
and unintegrated (‘insubordinate’)
she-‘that/which/who’-clauses
produced following final/continuing intonation
contours in naturally-occurring interaction. Leaving
aside modal insubordinate
she-clauses, I show that in all of
these cases she- ties back to an
immediately prior stretch of interaction – verbal
and/or embodied – and projects an elaboration or
evaluation of it, without much concern about which
particular type of complex construction – relative,
complement, or adverbial (if any) – is being
created. The data suggest that rather than viewing
insubordinate clauses as imperfect realizations of
the canonical ‘subordinate’ variety resulting from
the disintegration of complex syntactic patterns,
canonical, syntactically integrated varieties of
Hebrew relative, complement, and adverbial clauses
may be regarded as grammaticizations from
syntactically less integrated varieties.
Emergent patterns of predicative clauses in spoken
Hebrew discourse
Authors: Polak-Yitzhaki Hilla 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
This study focuses on the Hebrew
construction ha'emet (hi) she- ‘the
truth (is) that’ in a corpus of informal audio and
video conversation. Taking an interactional
linguistics approach, I argue that the construction
serves as a metalingual fragment constituting a
projecting construction. Its employment is fixed and
formulaic, it occurs at a moment of shift in the
discourse and is used to project talk which does
three kinds of social work: displaying the speaker’s
stance; setting the record straight regarding the
speaker’s personal world; and revealing delicate
information. Each function emerges in a
context-sensitive manner, revealing the relationship
between the construction and its sequential
position. Employment of the construction illustrates
the ways grammar evolves from the interactions among
conversational participants.
From matrix clause to turn expansion
Authors: Wang Wei , Tao Hongyin 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
One way complex clauses manifest themselves
is through a combination of a matrix clause and a
complement clause. However, matrix clauses as
represented by constructions such as I
think have been widely reported to
undergo grammaticization, whereby they become a
marker indicating the speaker’s epistemic stance.
This has also been identified for Mandarin Chinese.
In this chapter, however, we report that wo
juede ‘I feel/think’ in Mandarin has
developed a conversation interactional function that
extends turns-at-talk – a phenomenon that has not
yet received much attention in the Chinese
literature on talk in interaction. By providing an
account for the link between the
epistemic/evaluative uses and the turn-expansion
function of the erstwhile matrix clause, this paper
brings in an extended, interactional dimension to
the study of clause-combining.
Consecutive clause combinations in instructing
activities
Authors: Lindström Jan , Lindholm Camilla , Grahn Inga-Lill , Huhtamäki Martina 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
This chapter investigates the formatting of
instructions in physical training with personal
trainers or physiotherapists. Instructions occur in
multimodal activities where invitations to action,
compliances with them, and accounts for them emerge
through grammatical, prosodic and embodied
resources. We identified a two-part pattern
[directive & account] that accomplishes a
complex structural and pragmatic unit in trainers’
instructions. The instructions are grammatically
formed of consecutive clause combinations in which
the directive part is a declarative or an
imperative. These combinations emerge in interactive
sequences and are a designed, rather than a
contingent feature in the making of instructions.
Nevertheless, there is variation in their sequential
emergence and grammatical and prosodic composition,
from tight packages to projected or expanded
clause/action combinations.
The assessment of signed languages
Authors: Herman Ros , Grove Nicola , Haug Tobias , Mann Wolfgang , Prinz Philip 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
Despite the large number of assessments available to measure spoken language acquisition, until relatively recently no assessments were available that could be used to evaluate deaf children’s sign language acquisition. This is despite the fact that sign language has been used with deaf children in educational contexts for many years, and that deaf children are widely acknowledged to be at risk for language development. However, development of sign language assessments presents unique methodological challenges, due to factors such as our relatively limited knowledge of language acquisition in sign, and also to the nature and size of the Deaf community – the latter presenting specific challenges when standardising measures. This chapter will present two current areas of research related to sign language assessment, drawing on expertise from the UK, USA and Germany.
Work-Related Musculoskeletal Symptoms among Loggers in the Ark-La-Tex Region
Authors: Rodriguez  , Casanova  , Levin  , Gimeno Ruiz de Porras  , Douphrate  
Published: January 2020

Background: The U.S. logging sector is among the most dangerous industrial sectors, with high fatality and non-fatal injury rates. Limited research has addressed work-related musculoskeletal disorders among logging machine operators (LMOs). The purpose of this study was to estimate
the 12-month prevalence of musculoskeletal symptoms and the associated work-related risk factors among LMOs in the Arkansas, Louisiana, and Texas (Ark-La-Tex) logging region.Methods: A self-administered 93-item questionnaire with six different sections: (1) demographics, (2) lifestyle
and medical background, (3) work experience, (4) job training, (5) occupational heat-related stress, and (6) occupational injuries and MSS was administered to LMOs (n = 88) using Qualtrics Mobile Survey Software®. Poisson regression models were used to estimate crude prevalence
ratios (PR), adjusted PR [aPR], and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95% CI).Results: Regarding organizational, ergonomic, and handling equipment occupational factors and 12-month MSS prevalence, the adjusted model controlled for age, BMI, smoking status, and drinking status.
For organizational, the most problematic factors for the lower back were performing a task over and over (63.2%) and working very fast, for short periods (60.0%). For ergonomics, the most problematic factor for the lower extremities was awkward or cramped conditions (58.1%) and for the lower
back was bending/twisting back awkward (55.9%). Last, for handling equipment, the most problematic for both the lower back and lower extremities was handling or grasping small objects (57.1%).Conclusion: Our findings revealed associations between work-related MSS and specific job
factors (e.g., organizational, ergonomic, handling equipment, etc.), extreme environmental conditions or environmental, and personal risk factors. In particular, study findings suggest lower back and lower extremities MSS are associated with the a majority of job-related risk factors, lower
extremities with extreme environmental conditions, and neck and upper back with personal risk factors.
Spin–orbit coupling in the presence of strong atomic correlations
Authors: Usui Ayaka , Fogarty Thomás , Campbell Steve , Gardiner Simon A , Busch Thomas 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
We explore the influence of contact interactions on a synthetically spin–orbit coupled system of two ultracold trapped atoms. Even though the system we consider is bosonic, we show that a regime exists in which the competition between the contact and spin–orbit interactions results in the emergence of a ground state that contains a significant contribution from the anti-symmetric spin state. This ground state is unique to few-particle systems and does not exist in the mean-field regime. The transition to this state is signalled by an inversion in the average momentum from being dominated by centre-of-mass momentum to relative momentum and also affects the global entanglement shared between the real- and pseudo-spin spaces. Indeed, competition between the interactions can also result in avoided crossings in the ground state which further enhances these correlations. However, we find that correlations shared between the pseudo-spin states are strongly depressed due to the spin–orbit coupling and therefore the system does not contain spin–spin entanglement.
The Efficacy and Safety of Subcutaneous Radiofrequency After Liposuction: A New Application for Face and Neck Skin Tightening
Authors: Han Xuefeng , Yang Mingxia , Yin Bo , Cai Lei , Jin Shaodong , Zhang Xinyu , Li Facheng 
Published: January 2020

Abstract

Background
Minimally invasive or noninvasive skin-tightening procedures have become trends in facial and neck rejuvenation. Radiofrequency-assisted liposuction (RFAL) is a new choice for the treatment of skin relaxation that is more effective than noninvasive surgery without surgical incision.

Objectives
The authors recommend a 2-step method in which radiofrequency is applied after appropriate liposuction is performed. This approach is safer and more effective than traditional RFAL, and the authors detail the safety guidelines, operative techniques, postoperative satisfaction results, and complications.

Methods
A total of 227 patients with lower face and neck skin laxity underwent RFAL between April 2012 and June 2019. The following data were collected: age, body mass index, operative duration, volume of fat aspirated, amount of energy delivered, and number and type of complications. Patient satisfaction was surveyed postoperatively and assessed by third-party surgeons at 3 and 6 months.

Results
At 6 months after operation, 78.8% of patients considered the results moderate to excellent, whereas 21.2% of the patients considered the results to be poor or thought there was no change. The photograph evaluation performed by independent plastic surgeons showed moderate to excellent results in 89.1% of patients. There were no major complications that required further medical or surgical intervention.

Conclusions
This 2-step method is a safe and effective improvement in the application of radiofrequency for face and neck skin tightening. Patients can achieve significant contour correction via minimally invasive surgery with a lower risk of side effects.

pyBedGraph: a python package for fast operations on 1D genomic signal tracks
Authors: Zhang Henry B , Kim Minji , Chuang Jeffrey H , Ruan Yijun 
Published: January 2020

Abstract

Motivation
Modern genomic research is driven by next-generation sequencing experiments such as ChIP-seq and ChIA-PET that generate coverage files for transcription factor binding, as well as DHS and ATAC-seq that yield coverage files for chromatin accessibility. Such files are in a bedGraph text format or a bigWig binary format. Obtaining summary statistics in a given region is a fundamental task in analyzing protein binding intensity or chromatin accessibility. However, the existing Python package for operating on coverage files is not optimized for speed.

Results
We developed pyBedGraph, a Python package to quickly obtain summary statistics for a given interval in a bedGraph or a bigWig file. When tested on 12 ChIP-seq, ATAC-seq, RNA-seq and ChIA-PET datasets, pyBedGraph is on average 260 times faster than the existing program pyBigWig. On average, pyBedGraph can look up the exact mean signal of 1 million regions in ∼0.26 s and can compute their approximate means in &lt;0.12 s on a conventional laptop.

Genetic variation and phenotypic plasticity in circadian rhythms in an armed beetle, Gnatocerus cornutus (Tenebrionidae)
Authors: Matsumura Kentarou , Abe Masato S , Sharma Manmohan D , Hosken David J , Yoshii Taishi , Miyatake Takahisa 
Published: January 2020

AbstractCircadian rhythms, their free-running periods and the power of the rhythms are often used as indicators of biological clocks, and there is evidence that the free-running periods of circadian rhythms are not affected by environmental factors, such as temperature. However, there are few studies of environmental effects on the power of the rhythms, and it is not clear whether temperature compensation is universal. Additionally, genetic variation and phenotypic plasticity in biological clocks are important for understanding the evolution of biological rhythms, but genetic and plastic effects are rarely investigated. Here, we used 18 isofemale lines (genotypes) of Gnatocerus cornutus to assess rhythms of locomotor activity, while also testing for temperature effects. We found that total activity and the power of the circadian rhythm were affected by interactions between sex and genotype or between sex, genotype and temperature. The males tended to be more active and showed greater increases in activity, but this effect varied across both genotypes and temperatures. The period of activity varied only by genotype and was thus independent of temperature. The complicated genotype–sex–environment interactions we recorded stress the importance of investigating circadian activity in more integrated ways.
Hepatocyte growth factor-regulated tyrosine kinase substrate is essential for endothelial cell polarity and cerebrovascular stability

Published: January 2020

AbstractAimsHepatocyte growth factor-regulated tyrosine kinase substrate (Hgs), a key component of the endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT), has been implicated in many essential biological processes. However, the physiological role of endogenous Hgs in the vascular system has not previously been explored. Here, we have generated brain endothelial cell (EC) specific Hgs knockout mice to uncover the function of Hgs in EC polarity and cerebrovascular stability.Methods and resultsKnockout of Hgs in brain ECs led to impaired endothelial apicobasal polarity and brain vessel collapse in mice. We determined that Hgs is essential for recycling of vascular endothelial (VE)-cadherin to the plasma membrane, since loss of Hgs blocked trafficking of endocytosed VE-cadherin from early endosomes to recycling endosomes, and impaired the motility of recycling endosomes. Supportively, overexpression of the motor kinesin family member 13A (KIF13A) restored endosomal recycling and rescued abrogated polarized trafficking and distribution of VE-cadherin in Hgs knockdown ECs.ConclusionThese data uncover a novel physiological function of Hgs and support an essential role for the ESCRT machinery in the maintenance of EC polarity and cerebrovascular stability.
Decisions for Empire: Revisiting the 1882 Occupation of Egypt
Authors: Mulligan William 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
The decision of Gladstone’s government to invade and occupy Egypt in 1882 remains one of the most contentious in late nineteenth-century British political and imperial history. This article examines the decision-making process in June and July 1882, revisiting Robinson and Gallagher’s influential study in the light of more recent historiographical research and previously unused sources. It looks at who made the critical decisions, what their preoccupations were, and how they were able to get Cabinet approval. Hartington and Northbrook were the two key figures, who co-operated to overturn Gladstone’s and Granville’s policy in June 1882. Yet their co-operation was momentary and they found themselves on different sides of the argument over the participation of Indian forces and international support. Although they shared a sense of Egypt’s importance to British imperial security, they each had a distinctive approach, so that the decision to occupy cannot be reduced to a conflict between Whig pragmatists and Radical idealists. The article also shows how the Alexandria riot on 11 June altered the context of decision-making by shifting the mood in the parliamentary Liberal party towards intervention. Parliament, not the press, was the crucial site of ‘public opinion’ in the Egyptian crisis in June and July 1882.
Comparison of external apical root resorption with clear aligners and pre-adjusted edgewise appliances in non-extraction cases: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Authors: Gandhi Vaibhav , Mehta Shivam , Gauthier Marissa , Mu Jijian , Kuo Chia-Ling , Nanda Ravindra , Yadav Sumit 
Published: January 2020

Summary

Objective
The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the amount of external apical root resorption (EARR) observed during the orthodontic treatment with pre-adjusted edgewise appliance (PEA) or clear aligner therapy (CAT) and with 2D or 3D radiographic methods of measuring the root resorption.

Search strategy and selection criteria
A search of PubMed MEDLINE, Scopus, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, LILACS, Web of Science, Dissertations & Theses Global, ClinicalTrials.gov registry, and the ISRCTN Registry was performed. Studies that have evaluated the amount of root resorption in non-extraction cases using CAT or PEA were selected for the systematic review. A meta-analysis was performed for the amount of root resorption of permanent maxillary incisors using PEA or CAT treatment modalities by either 2D or cone-beam computed tomography radiographic examination.

Data collection and analysis
Database research, elimination of duplicate studies, data extraction, and risk of bias were performed by authors independently and in duplication. A random-effect meta-analysis followed by subgroup comparisons were performed to evaluate EARR.

Results
A total of 16 studies (4 were prospective and 12 were retrospective) were identified for inclusion in the systematic review. The mean root resorption for the permanent maxillary incisors was in the range from 0.25 to 1.13 mm (overall: 0.49 mm; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.24 to 0.75 mm). The mean root resorption difference between CAT and PEA was statistically significant (P &lt; 0.05) for 12 but not for 21, 11, or 22.

Limitations
One of the drawbacks is a lack of good quality prospective studies, specifically randomized clinical trials in the literature.

Conclusions and implications
Neither PEA or CAT technique leads to clinically significant root resorption (1 mm) of the maxillary incisors. The amount of EARR of maxillary incisors is not significant in comparing two treatment modalities (PEA and CAT), except for 12, where the PEA group has significantly more EARR when compared to CAT.

Registration
The protocol for this systematic review was based on the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions 5.1.0 and was registered at PROSPERO database (https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/display_record.php?ID=CRD42018113051). This systematic review is reported according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses statement.
