Lobbying Autism’s Diagnostic Revision in the DSM-5
Authors: Kapp Steven K. , Ne’eman Ari 
Published: November 2019

AbstractFrom 2009 to 2012, the Autistic Self Advocacy Network (ASAN) advocated to influence the DSM-5’s revision of the diagnostic criteria for autism. ASAN succeeded in substantially influencing the final criteria and accompanying text. It worked to address community concerns that the apparent narrowing of diagnostic criteria might “miss” autistic people while nonetheless supporting the shift to a unified autism diagnosis. The historicactivismtook place through both public and private communications with the workgroup. ASAN achieved significant partial successes in protecting access to diagnosis, addressing disparities in diagnosis for marginalized groups, and blocking harmful proposals. Nonetheless, the lack of formal autistic representation within the process limited ASAN’s impact, leading to criteria that are likely still too narrow and a problematic severity scale.
Autonomy, the Critical Journal of Interdisciplinary Autism Studies
Authors: Arnold Larry 
Published: November 2019

AbstractFollowing his diagnosis of autism and journey through neurodiversity and academia, Arnold’s desire was to set up an interdisciplinary discourse in critical autism studies to achieve a number of things and to ultimately redress the balance of academic colonialization. He founded the academic journal Autonomy in 2012 with an exclusively autistic editorship and at least one autistic reviewer for each article, to (1) republish key writings of autistic people in a citable academic format, (2) review the literature about autism from an autistic perspective, (3) provide the opportunity for scholars denied access to academic publishing by the various structural and institutional barriers, and (4) provide a forum for the exchange of ideas about autism between the medical, scientific, and sociological disciplines.
My Time with Autism Speaks
Authors: Robison John Elder 
Published: November 2019

AbstractIn this chapter John Elder Robison describes his mid-life autism diagnosis, and how that inspired his public autism advocacy. He began by writing Look Me in the Eye, a popular memoir of life on the autism spectrum. That led to his being invited to advise scientists, which in turn led him to engage with the research charity Autism Speaks in an attempt to change what he regarded as toxic and non-productive views of autism. Robison abandoned those efforts in 2013 but continues writing and teaching about autism and the emergent neurodiversity. He also remains involved in advising government agencies on autism policy. In this chapter he reflects on his decision to resign from advising Autism Speaks and the aftermath.

From Exclusion to Acceptance: Independent Living on the Autistic Spectrum
Authors: Dekker Martijn 
Published: November 2019

AbstractIn 1996 Martijn Dekker of the Netherlands founded Independent Living on the Autistic Spectrum (InLv), an e-mail list for autistic people. First run by hand on dial-up, InLv was also the first fully autistic-run, self-hosted online autism community. With forums on topics from “advocacy” to “brain” to daily living such as “self-care”, “employment”, “social”, and “family”, InLv provided a venue for discussions that gave rise to neurodiversity concepts and members published influential essays that remain online. The group provided mutual support to accept autistic people as individuals, promoting inclusion and resisting conformity while helping one another to self-advocate and secure civil rights and appropriate services.
Losing
Authors: Baggs Mel 
Published: November 2019

AbstractIn 2005 Mel Baggs contributed an important action to the neurodiversity movement’s development. In response to the website “Getting the Word Out” published by theAutism Society of America, Baggs came up with their own version, “Getting the Truth Out,”a websitethat displayed black-and-white selfies, mashed together with negative medical descriptions used for them to make the point that you can make anyone look terrible if you describe them selectively and that stances like those conveyed on the “Getting the Word Out” website harm autistic people. Baggs had thought they failed to convey their message, but learned that the website had an impact. They emphasize that sometimes what you do has important effects even when you seem to be failing or losing.
The Autistic Genocide Clock
Authors: Evans Meg 
Published: November 2019

AbstractThe Autistic Genocide Clock was created by Autistic activist Meg Evans in 2005. The Clock was a ten-year countdown in the image of a clock in response to researcher Dr. Joseph Buxbaum’s public pronouncement that genetic research on autism could lead to a prenatal genetic test within 10 years. Evans’ point was that a prenatal genetic test for autism could lead to abortions of fetuses that test positive for autism: a form of genocide in her view. The Autistic Genocide Clock warned about the risk of genocide to the autistic population that drew parallels to historic attempts to eliminate minority groups. Evans took the clock down in 2011 after the prenatal test seemed unlikely and the culture had moved much further towards acceptance.
Reparameterization invariant operator basis for NRQED and HQET
Authors: Kobach Andrew , Pal Sridip 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
We provide a self-contained discussion of how reparameterization invariance connects a rotationally-invariant heavy particle effective theory with a single heavy fermion to a Lorentz-invariant theory. Furthermore, using Hilbert-series methods, a Lorentz- invariant operator basis is tabulated, up to and including operators of order 1/M4, when the fermion couples to an external U(1) or SU(3) gauge interaction.
New observational insights into the atmospheric circulation over the Euro-Atlantic sector since 1685
Authors: Mellado-Cano Javier , Barriopedro David , García-Herrera Ricardo , Trigo Ricardo M. 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
Wind direction kept in ships’ logbooks is a consolidated but underexploited observational source of relevant climatic information. In this paper, we present four indices of the monthly frequency of wind direction, one for each cardinal direction: Northerly (NI), Easterly (EI), Southerly (SI) and Westerly (WI), based on daily wind direction observations taken aboard ships over the English Channel. These Directional Indices (DIs) are the longest observational record of atmospheric circulation to date at the daily scale, covering the 1685–2014 period. DIs anomalies are associated with near-surface climatic signals over large areas of Europe in all seasons, with zonal indices (WI and EI) and meridional indices (NI and SI) often affecting different regions. Statistical models including all DIs are able to explain a considerable amount of European climate variability, in most cases higher than that accounted for by the North Atlantic Oscillation. As such, the DIs are able to reproduce the known European climatic history and provide new insights of certain episodes from monthly to multi-decadal time scales such as the warm winter decade of 1730–1739 or the extremely cold 1902 summer. The DIs show the potential to better constrain the atmospheric circulation response to external forcings and its associated anomalies. In particular, we provide first observational evidences of all year-round atmospheric circulation signals following the strongest tropical volcanic eruptions of the last three centuries. These signatures are more complex than previously thought and suggest that the well-reported winter warming and summer cooling cannot be simply interpreted in terms of changes in zonality.
The use of stretching devices for treatment of trismus in head and neck cancer patients: a randomized controlled trial
Authors: van der Geer Sarah J. , Reintsema Harry , Kamstra Jolanda I. , Roodenburg Jan L. N. , Dijkstra Pieter U. 
Published: November 2019

Abstract

Purpose
To compare the effects of two stretching devices, the TheraBite® Jaw Motion Rehabilitation System™ and the Dynasplint Trismus System®, on maximal mouth opening in head and neck cancer patients.

Methods
Patients were randomly assigned to one of two exercise groups: the TheraBite® Jaw Motion Rehabilitation System™ group or the Dynasplint Trismus System® group. Patients performed stretching exercises for 3 months. During the three study visits, maximal mouth opening was measured and the patients completed questionnaires on mandibular function and quality of life.

Results
In our study population (n = 27), five patients did not start the exercise protocol, eight patients discontinued exercises, and two patients were lost to follow-up. No significant differences regarding the change in mouth opening between the two devices were found. Patients had an increase in MMO of 3.0 mm (IQR − 2.0; 4.0) using the TheraBite® Jaw Motion Rehabilitation System™ and 1.5 mm (IQR 1.0; 3.0) using the Dynasplint Trismus System®. Exercising with either stretching device was challenging for the patients due to the intensive exercise protocol, pain during the exercises, fitting problems with the stretching device, and overall deterioration of their medical condition.

Conclusions
The effects of the two stretching devices did not differ significantly in our study population. The factors described, influencing the progression of stretching exercises, need to be taken into account when prescribing a similar stretching regimen for trismus in head and neck cancer patients.

Expression of gingival crevicular fluid markers during early and late healing of intrabony defects after surgical treatment: a systematic review
Authors: Koidou V. P. , Chatzopoulos G. S. , Tomas I. , Nibali L. , Donos N. 
Published: November 2019

Abstract

Background
Surgical treatments such as guided tissue regeneration (GTR) and access flap surgery are widely employed for the treatment of intrabony defects. However, little is known regarding the postoperative expression of gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) markers.

Objective
The aim of this systematic review was to compare the expression of GCF markers following treatment of periodontal intrabony defects with guided tissue regeneration or access surgery. The association of the markers’ expression with the clinical outcome was also assessed.

Methods
An electronic literature search was conducted in MEDLINE, EMBASE, OpenGrey, LILACS and Cochrane Library up to December 2018 complemented by a manual search. Human, prospective clinical studies were identified. The changes from baseline up to 30 days (early healing) and 3 months (late healing) were assessed.

Results
A total of 164 publications were identified and reviewed for eligibility. Of these, 10 publications fulfilled the inclusion criteria. The included studies evaluated 15 different GCF markers with a follow-up time between 21 and 360 days postoperatively. PDGF, VEGF and TIMP-1 changes were often investigated in the included studies; however, contrasting results were reported. Two studies agreed that both GTR and OFD lead to similar OPG level changes. TGF-β1 is increased early postoperatively, irrespective of the surgical technique employed.

Conclusion
There is limited evidence available on the expression of GCF markers after surgical interventions of intrabony periodontal defects. However, OPG and TGF-β1 tend to increase early post-operatively, irrespective of the surgical technique employed, irrespective of the surgical technique employed.

Clinical relevance
More well-designed, powered studies with sampling periods reflecting the regenerative process are needed, and future research should focus on employing standardised protocols for collecting, storing and analysing GCF markers.
Clinician compliance to recommendations regarding the risk of suicidality with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors in the treatment of children and adolescents
Authors: Sørensen Johanne Østerby , Rasmussen Annette , Roesbjerg Troels , Pagsberg Anne Katrine 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
Meta-analyses of randomized-controlled trials have established a heightened risk of suicidality for children and adolescents treated with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). The present study examined to what extent daily clinical practice complied with specific recommendations regarding the risk of suicidality when treating children and adolescents with SSRIs. All in- and outpatients aged 0–17 years at the Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services, Capital Region of Denmark with a prescription for SSRI on January 1st, 2016 were identified. Data were obtained for n = 365 patients regarding the level of clinician compliance to deliver pre-consent information about adverse effects, monitor for suicidality, and provide non-pharmacological interventions. 81.7% (n = 298) of patients received pre-consent information about adverse effects. 67.7% (n = 247) were monitored for suicidality within 6 weeks after SSRI initiation. Children (0–13 years) were less likely to be monitored for suicidality compared to adolescents (14–17 years) (49.6% vs. 77.5%, p < 0.001). Patients with depression as indication for SSRI treatment were more likely to be monitored for suicidality than patients with other indications (OR = 3.4, p = 0,002) and more likely to receive information specifically about suicidality (34.7% vs. 19.7%, p = 0.002). Respectively, 89.3% (n = 326) and 93.4% (n = 341) of all SSRI-treated patients were treated with non-pharmacological interventions prior to and in parallel with SSRI treatment. For the majority of cases, treatment of children and adolescents with SSRI complied with recommendations from clinical guidelines. However, patients of younger age and/or with indications for SSRIs other than depression were less likely to be managed according to recommendations.
Study of the correlation between the composition, structure and crystallization in frits designed for single fast-firing glazes with variable BaO content
Authors: Gajek Marcin 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
The paper presents the results of investigation on the development of frits for single fast-firing glazes with variable BaO content based on the SiO2–Al2O3–CaO–MgO–ZnO–(BaO) system, fired at a maximum temperature of 1220 °C. The study of the correlation between the composition, structure and crystallization of frits and glazes was carried out using various methods for materials characterization, including differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dilatometry (DIL), hot-stage microscopy (HSM), X-ray diffraction and scanning and transmission electron microscopy. DSC and X-ray diffraction showed a high tendency to crystallize the tested frits. DSC curves showed that all glazes crystallized during heating in a narrow-temperature range ≈ 938–955 °C, and the introduction of BaO shifted the maximum of exothermic peaks toward higher temperatures. X-ray analysis revealed the presence of diopside and anorthite as the main crystalline phases. The introduction of 5 mass% BaO to the frit composition promoted the crystallization of the additional crystalline phase of barium feldspar (BaAl2Si2O8). In addition, in this composition a strong exothermic effect on the DSC curve at the cooling stage was observed. The analysis of data obtained from thermal studies also showed that the addition of BaO to the chemical composition of the frits resulted in a decrease in the glass transition temperature (Tg) and in reduction in viscosity calculated on the basis of the Vogel–Fulcher–Tammann equation (HSM, DIL).
Impulsive vibration mitigation through a nonlinear tuned vibration absorber
Authors: Habib Giuseppe , Kádár Fanni , Papp Bálint 
Published: November 2019

AbstractThe dynamics of a nonlinear passive vibration absorber conceived to mitigate vibrations of a nonlinear host structure is considered in this paper. The system under study is composed of a primary system, consisting of an undamped nonlinear oscillator of Duffing type, and a nonlinear dynamic vibration absorber, denominated nonlinear tuned vibration absorber (NLTVA). The NLTVA consists of a small mass, attached to the host structure through a linear damper, a linear and a cubic spring. The host structure is subject to free vibrations and the performance of the NLTVA is evaluated with respect to the minimal time required to dissipate a specific amount of the mechanical energy of the system. In order to characterize the dynamics of the system, a combination of numerical and analytical techniques is implemented. In particular, on the basis of the first-order reduced model, slow invariant manifolds of the transient dynamics are identified, which enable to estimate the absorber performance. Results illustrate that two different dynamical paths exist and the system can undergo either of them, depending on the initial conditions and on the value of the absorber nonlinear stiffness coefficient. One path leads to a very fast vibration mitigation, and therefore to a favorable behavior, while the other one causes a very slow energy dissipation.
Metabolomic studies of Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Authors: Mielko Karolina Anna , Jabłoński Sławomir Jan , Milczewska Justyna , Sands Dorota , Łukaszewicz Marcin , Młynarz Piotr 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common, Gram-negative environmental organism. It can be a significant pathogenic factor of severe infections in humans, especially in cystic fibrosis patients. Due to its natural resistance to antibiotics and the ability to form biofilms, infection with this pathogen can cause severe therapeutic problems. In recent years, metabolomic studies of P. aeruginosa have been performed. Therefore, in this review, we discussed recent achievements in the use of metabolomics methods in bacterial identification, differentiation, the interconnection between genome and metabolome, the influence of external factors on the bacterial metabolome and identification of new metabolites produced by P. aeruginosa. All of these studies may provide valuable information about metabolic pathways leading to an understanding of the adaptations of bacterial strains to a host environment, which can lead to new drug development and/or elaboration of new treatment and diagnostics strategies for Pseudomonas.

A new approach for scheduling of multipurpose batch processes with unlimited intermediate storage policy
Authors: Rakovitis Nikolaos , Zhang Nan , Li Jie , Zhang Liping 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
The increasing demand of goods, the high competitiveness in the global marketplace as well as the need to minimize the ecological footprint lead multipurpose batch process industries to seek ways to maximize their productivity with a simultaneous reduction of raw materials and utility consumption and efficient use of processing units. Optimal scheduling of their processes can lead facilities towards this direction. Although a great number of mathematical models have been developed for such scheduling, they may still lead to large model sizes and computational time. In this work, we develop two novel mathematical models using the unit-specific event-based modelling approach in which consumption and production tasks related to the same states are allowed to take place at the same event points. The computational results demonstrate that both proposed mathematical models reduce the number of event points required. The proposed unit-specific event-based model is the most efficient since it both requires a smaller number of event points and significantly less computational time in most cases especially for those examples which are computationally expensive from existing models.
Petrophysical interpretation and fluid substitution modelling of the upper shallow marine sandstone reservoirs in the Bredasdorp Basin, offshore South Africa
Authors: Magoba Moses , Opuwari Mimonitu 
Published: November 2019

AbstractThe fluid substitution method is used for predicting elastic properties of reservoir rocks and their dependence on pore fluid and porosity. This method makes it possible to predict changes in elastic response of a rock saturation with different fluids. This study focused on the Upper Shallow Marine sandstone reservoirs of five selected wells (MM1, MM2, MM3, MM4, and MM5) in the Bredasdorp Basin, offshore South Africa. The integration of petrophysics and rock physics (Gassmann fluid substitution) was applied to the upper shallow marine sandstone reservoirs for reservoir characterisation. The objective of the study was to calculate the volume of clay, porosity, water saturation, permeability, and hydrocarbon saturation, and the application of the Gassmann fluid substitution modelling to determine the effect of different pore fluids (brine, oil, and gas) on acoustic properties (compressional velocity, shear velocity, and density) using rock frame properties. The results showed average effective porosity ranging from 8.7% to 16.6%, indicating a fair to good reservoir quality. The average volume of clay, water saturation, and permeability values ranged from 8.6% to 22.3%, 18.9% to 41.6%, and 0.096–151.8 mD, respectively. The distribution of the petrophysical properties across the field was clearly defined with MM2 and MM3 revealing good porosity and MM1, MM4, and MM5 revealing fair porosity. Well MM4 revealed poor permeability, while MM3 revealed good permeability. The fluid substitution affected rock property significantly. The primary velocity, Vp, slightly decreased when brine was substituted with gas in wells MM1, MM2, MM3, and MM4. The shear velocity, Vs, remained unaffected in all the wells. This study demonstrated how integration of petrophysics and fluid substitution can help to understand the behaviour of rock properties in response to fluid saturation changes in the Bredasdorp Basin. The integration of these two disciplines increases the obtained results’ quality and reliability.
Obesity and Eating Disturbance: the Role of TFEQ Restraint and Disinhibition
Authors: Bryant Eleanor J. , Rehman Javairia , Pepper Lisa B. , Walters Elizabeth R. 
Published: November 2019

Abstract

Purpose of Review
Literature from the past five years exploring roles of Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire (TFEQ) Restraint and Disinhibition in relation to adult obesity and eating disturbance (ED) was reviewed.

Recent Findings
Restraint has a mixed impact on weight regulation, diet quality, and vulnerability to ED, where it is related detrimentally to weight regulation, diet, and psychopathology, yet can serve as a protective factor. The impact of Disinhibition is potently related to increased obesity, poorer diet, hedonically driven food choices, and a higher susceptibility to ED.

Summary
Restraint and Disinhibition have distinct influences on obesity and ED and should be targeted differently in interventions. Further work is required to elucidate the mechanisms underlying TFEQ eating behavior traits.
