Published: January 2020

AbstractFeline pancreatitis is a challenge to diagnose and no previously published study has described the CT characteristics of the pancreatic duct (PD) in cats. The current prospective analytical study was performed to identify and describe the CT characteristics of the PD in normal cats and to compare that to those cats with an elevated feline pancreatic lipase immunoreactivity (fPLI). Contrast‐enhanced CT was performed in 16 normal cats and 13 cats with an elevated fPLI. Two ACVR‐certified radiologists blinded to the fPLI status assessed whether or not the PD could be identified, contrast phase during which the PD was most conspicuous, and PD shape in the body, right and left lobes. A second‐year radiology resident blinded to the fPLI status measured maximum PD diameter and PD:parenchyma. The PD was identified in 84 of 87 pancreatic segments, which was most conspicuous in the portal phase in 28 of 29 cats. The PD shape was tubular (48/84), tapered (34/84), or beaded (2/84) with no significant difference (P = 1.0 to .1615) between groups. Mean maximal PD diameters of normal cats were 1.5‐1.7 mm, which was significantly larger in the body of the pancreas in cats with an elevated fPLI (2.4 mm, P = .0313). Mean PD:parenchyma was not significantly different between groups (P = .2001 to .949). In conclusion, the feline PD can be consistently identified on CT, for which the portal phase is preferred. Cats with an elevated fPLI are more likely to exhibit dilation of the PD in the body of the pancreas on CT.
Experimental Investigation on the Factors Affecting Proppant Flowback Performance
Authors: Wang Lei , Wen Heng 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
Proppant flowback is a significant issue in the field of fractured well production. In order to investigate the influencing relationships among the parameters affecting proppant flowback, the weight of proppant flowback within different conditions was tested by applying a fracture simulation experiment device. During the experiments, the flowback velocity of the fracturing fluid, the viscosity of the fracturing fluid, the proppant particle size, and the effective closure pressure were studied. The experimental results indicated that the flowback velocity of the fracturing fluid is critical for proppant flowback. The weight of the flowback proppant increases as the fracturing fluid flowback velocity increases. Proppant flowback mainly occurs in the early stage of fracturing fluid flowback; more than 75% of the flowback volume of the proppant was carried by 33.33% of the fracturing fluid flowback volume. The weight of the flowback proppant decreases as the flowback fracturing fluid viscosity decreases. Using a larger particle size proppant or upon increasing effective closure pressure also can decrease the weight of the flowback proppant.
A Treaty-based framework for mainstream social work education in Aotearoa New Zealand: Educators talk about their practice
Authors: McNabb David 
Published: January 2020

INTRODUCTION: Globally, indigenous social work educators have pursued decolonisation and the development of decolonising practices as part of the indigenous peoples’ rights movement and based on social work principles of self-determination and social justice. Māori have advanced decolonisation based on the original partnership that was envisaged in the Treaty of Waitangi signed between Māori and the British Crown in 1840. Aotearoa New Zealand social work education has a stated commitment to a Treaty-based partnership approach.METHODS: This research engaged focus groups along with interviews of social work educators from nine of the 19 programmes across Aotearoa New Zealand to explore if, and how, this commitment to a Treaty-based approach was being demonstrated in the real world of practice. A diverse group of participants included Māori, Pākehā, Pasifika, and people identifying with other ethnic groups.FINDINGS: Māori and non-Māori participants gave a range of perspectives relating to practising within a Treaty-based context. The Treaty should be understood historically but also in its contemporary expressions noting the extra demands placed on Māori. Non-Māori had an important role in demonstrating Treaty partnership and confronting White privilege. The Māori cultural approach of Kaupapa Ma ̄ori was a foundation for a Treaty approach, and presented a challenge for non-Māori to learn this. A major challenge for programmes was having sufficient Māori staff.Conclusions: Based on the findings, a Treaty-based teaching and learning framework has been developed to support educators as they advance decolonising practices and the indigenisation of social work education in Aotearoa New Zealand.
Cultural support workers in the Aotearoa New Zealand healthcare setting: Challenge and opportunity for health social work
Authors: Goh Maree 
Published: January 2020

INTRODUCTION: In Aotearoa New Zealand, as elsewhere in the world, healthcare providers are seeking better ways to engage with increasingly ethnically and linguistically diverse communities. The use of cultural support workers (CSWs) to act as a bridge between services and such communities is proving to be an effective strategy for achieving this. For the social work profession, the advent of CSW roles presents both challenges and opportunities.APPROACH: A review of literature outlines the challenge of delivering culturally responsive and appropriate services to migrant and refugee communities and describes the role played by CSWs to increase the cultural understanding of healthcare providers and improve health outcomes for these communities. The impact of such roles on health social work is explored and how current social work education prepares practitioners for practice in an increasingly multicultural society.CONCLUSIONS: This article outlines the key issues that arise from the introduction of CSWs, the potential for collaboration and the opportunity that exists for health social work to refocus and redefine its role in the healthcare setting.

Published: January 2020

Purpose: To determine whether daily perceived recovery is explained from a multifactorial single-session classification of recovery (ie, faster vs slower) or other circumstantial factors (ie, previous training load, self-reported sleep, or phase of the microcycle). Methods: Nineteen elite male futsal players were initially allocated to a recovery-classification group (faster recovery, slower physiological, or slower perceptual) based on previous research using a multifactorial cluster-analysis technique. During 4 ensuing weeks of preseason, training loads were monitored via player load, training impulse, and session rating of perceived exertion. Before each day’s training, players reported their perception of recovery (Total Quality of Recovery scale [TQR]) and the number of hours and perceived quality of sleep the night prior. A hierarchical linear mixed model was used to analyze the effect of the different recovery profiles, training load, sleep, and phase of the microcycle (ie, start, middle, end) on daily TQR. Results: The recovery classification of players (P = .20), training load (training impulse, P = .32; player load, P = .23; session rating of perceived exertion, P = .46), and self-reported hours slept the night before (P = .45) did not significantly influence TQR. However, perceived sleep quality (P < .01) and phase of the microcycle (P < .01) were significantly associated with TQR (r2 = .41). Conclusions: Neither recovery classification nor prior training load influenced perceived recovery during the preseason. However, higher TQR was evident with better self-reported sleep quality, whereas lower values were associated with phases of the training week.
Rare earth elements in self-shielded flux-cored wires and their effect on the weld toughing of U75V rail steel

Published: January 2020

Self-shielded flux-cored wire is a new type of welding material that has the advantages of outdoor and high-efficiency application, and it has been used widely for rail repair. A self-shielded flux-cored wire with high alkalinity and rare earth elements was taken for research, and the microstructure, inclusions, hardness and the impact toughness were studied. Rare earth elements could eliminate the oxygen and sulfur when they were added into the molten pool. The addition amount has been optimized to the range of 4% in the self-shielded flux-cored wire when used for rail repairing.
Applications of real-time chemical stratigraphy in support of the safe drilling of HPHT wells: examples from the Shearwater Field, Central North Sea, UK
Authors: Atkin Daniel , Vieira Manuel , Taylor Ben 
Published: January 2020

X-ray fluorescence (XRF) data from a series of high-pressure–high-temperature (HPHT) wells drilled in the Shearwater Field, UK Continental Shelf (UKCS) are presented. These data comprise a total of 789 samples across a series of eight study wells. Chemical stratigraphy was utilized in conjunction with other geological data (i.e. well logs, ditch cutting descriptions and biostratigraphic analyses) to aid real-time stratigraphic placement. Systematic changes in geochemical composition were identified and used to build a chemostratigraphic zonation to aid delineation of lithostratigraphic boundaries.
The application of chemical stratigraphy provided a valuable source of data, particularly through critical ‘drill-in-liner’ sections that are devoid of conventional logging while drilling (LWD) data. The identification of key geochemical zones and provision of a synthetic gamma-ray (Synth GR) profile were utilized in the placement of key casing points and identification of challenging top reservoir picks (Fulmar Formation). These data also served as a backup during LWD tool failure resulting from excessive temperatures. The successive addition of geochemical data accumulated with each well-site exercise permitted continued refinement of the zonation framework, with derived Synth GR profiles exhibiting an extremely close relationship with subsequent wireline logs. Chemical stratigraphic data are shown to be robust and repeatable within the Shearwater Field, enabling close stratigraphic control through critical sections, whilst also providing a low-cost backup in the event of conventional logging tool failures.
Tumor Antigen Heterogeneity: The “Elephant in the Room” of Adoptive T-cell Therapy for Solid Tumors
Authors: Albelda Steven M. 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
A major hurdle to the efficacy of adoptive cell therapy and chimeric antigen receptors T-cell therapy is the choice of antigen(s) to target. An article in this issue addresses this by capitalizing on the synergistic effect of pathogen-based immunotherapy and adoptive cell therapy that results in epitope/antigen spreading and enhancement of the endogenous T-cell response against antigens not originally targeted.

Objective:
Activated perivascular mast cells (MCs) participate in different cardiovascular diseases. Many factors provoking MC degranulation have been described, while physiological counterregulators are barely known. Endothelial CNP (C-type natriuretic peptide) participates in the maintenance of vascular barrier integrity, but the target cells and mechanisms are unclear. Here, we studied whether MCs are regulated by CNP.

Approach and Results:

In cultured human and murine MCs, CNP activated its specific GC (guanylyl cyclase)-B receptor and cyclic GMP signaling. This enhanced cyclic GMP–dependent phosphorylation of the cytoskeleton-associated VASP (vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein) and inhibited ATP-evoked degranulation. To elucidate the relevance in vivo, mice with a floxed GC-B (
Npr2
) gene were interbred with a
Mcpt5-Cre

TG

line to generate mice lacking GC-B in connective tissue MCs (MC GC-B knockout). In anesthetized mice, acute ischemia-reperfusion of the cremaster muscle microcirculation provoked extensive MC degranulation and macromolecule extravasation. Superfusion of CNP markedly prevented MC activation and endothelial barrier disruption in control but not in MC GC-B knockout mice. Notably, already under resting conditions, such knockout mice had increased numbers of degranulated MCs in different tissues, together with elevated plasma chymase levels. After transient coronary occlusion, their myocardial areas at risk and with infarction were enlarged. Moreover, MC GC-B knockout mice showed augmented perivascular neutrophil infiltration and deep vein thrombosis in a model of inferior vena cava ligation.

Conclusions:
CNP, via GC-B/cyclic GMP signaling, stabilizes resident perivascular MCs at baseline and prevents their excessive activation under pathological conditions. Thereby CNP contributes to the maintenance of vascular integrity in physiology and disease.
Shell and appendages variability in two allopatric ostracod species seen through the light of molecular data
Authors: Karanovic Ivana , Huyen Pham Thi Minh , Yoo Hyunsu , Nakao Yuriko , Tsukagoshi Akira 
Published: January 2020

Ostracod crustaceans are among the most abundant microfossil animals. Understanding intra- and interspecific variability of their shell is of pivotal importance for the interpretation of paleontological data. In comparison to appendages, ostracod shell displays more intraspecific variability (in shape, size, and ornamentation), often as a response to environmental conditions. Shell variability has been studied with sophisticated methods, such as geometric morphometrics (GM), but the conspecificity of examined specimens and populations was never tested. In addition, there are no GM studies of appendages. We build on previously published high cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) divergence rates among populations of a brackish water species, Ishizakiella miurensis (Hanai, 1957). With landmark-based GM analyses of its shell and appendages, and additional genetic markers (ITS, 28S, 18S), we test if the genetic variability is structured in morphospace. This approach is the core of integrative taxonomy paradigm which has been proposed to bring the gap between traditional taxonomy and other disciplines such as evolutionary biology. The results show that it is the shell shape, and not the shape of appendages, that mirrors the molecular phylogeny, and we describe a new species. Our results suggest that the landmark-based GM studies may be useful in paleontological datasets for closely related species delineation. We implement molecular clock and population statistics to discuss speciation processes and phylogeography of the two congeners in Korea and Japan.
Lithuanian language discourses and family language policies of Lithuanian families in Sweden: A case study

Published: January 2020

Lithuanian language discourses and family language policies of Lithuanian families in Sweden: A case studyThis case study shares first insights of the family language policy of a Lithuanian family in Sweden. It identifies Lithuanian language discourses that might affect this policy and analyses discourse strategies applied by the family members. The aim is to shed some new light on the negotiation processes of family language policies that either support the maintenance of an ethnic language as the means of intra-family communication in immigrant contexts or, conversely, work against it. Applying a linguistic ethnographical approach, the study indicates that in this case the family language policy is mostly shaped by the mother in a protective and monolingual way in order to foster the maintenance of the Lithuanian heritage in anticipation of an external threat for Lithuanian language and identity. Litewskie dyskursy językowe a polityki językowe litewskich rodzin w Szwecji. Studium przypadkuNiniejszy artykuł przedstawia wstępne uwagi analityczne dotyczące polityki językowej litewskiej rodziny mieszkającej w Szwecji. Autor identyfikuje litewskie dyskursy językowe, które mogą mieć wpływ na jej politykę językową, i analizuje strategie dyskursu stosowane przez jej członków. Celem studium jest nowe spojrzenie na procesy negocjacji rodzinnych polityk językowych (family language policies), które mogą być pomocne w utrzymaniu ojczystego języka jako środka komunikacji w rodzinach emigrantów lub temu nie sprzyjać. Przedstawione badania opierają się na metodach etnografii lingwistycznej (linguistic ethnography) i wykazują, że w tym przypadku rodzinna polityka językowa jest kształtowana głównie przez matkę, jest jednojęzyczna i ma charakter ochronny – jest nakierowana na zachowanie litewskiego dziedzictwa kulturowego w związku z przewidywanymi zagrożeniami zewnętrznymi dla języka litewskiego i tożsamości litewskiej.

On the Polish language and cultural heritage in the village of Belostok in SiberiaThe village of Belostok is known as one of originally Polish villages in Siberia. As it is today, only one woman in the village (from the oldest generation) still speaks dialectal Polish, and another one remembers Polish prayers. This article attempts to reconstruct the original sociolinguistic situation in the village, including the use of Polish at home, at church and at school. It is based on published documents and interviews with the two villagers recorded in 2016–2017. O polskim dziedzictwie językowym i kulturowym we wsi Biełostok na SyberiiWieś Biełostok (Białystok) na Syberii Zachodniej uważana jest za miejscowość pierwotnie polską. Obecnie tylko jedna osoba należąca do najstarszego pokolenia zachowuje znajomość języka polskiego w ustnej postaci gwarowej; druga, jej rówieśniczka, pamięta polskie teksty modlitw. Artykuł stanowi próbę rekonstrukcji dawnej sytuacji socjolingwistycznej w tej wsi, włączając w to używanie języka polskiego w domu, w Kościele i w szkole, na podstawie opublikowanych dokumentów oraz rozmów z mieszkankami Biełostoku nagranymi w latach 2016–2017.

“It was hard for me to speak Russian”: Interviews with a resident of the village of Belostok in SiberiaThe fieldwork in the formerly Polish village of Belostok in the Tomsk Region (Western Siberia) undertaken in 2017 is a continuation of the previous study of the idiolect of its sole Polish-speaking resident initiated by Natal’ia Anan’eva fourteen years ago. This article presents a record and commentary of two interviews with this speaker, Ms Maria Markish (Markisz) (born in 1928). The first of them was conducted in April 2017 by Agnieszka Kaniewska from the University of Wrocław (Rev. Krzysztof Korolczuk SJ also took part), and the second one – by the author of this paper in May the same year, with the assistance of A. Kaniewska. It remains to be hoped that the two collectively conducted interviews come as a sign of wider international cooperation in future studies on Polish dialects in Russia. „Mnie po rusku było ciężko gadać”.
