Early Gothic numismatic [h]rustisandγουνθ/ιου
Authors: Mees Bernard 
Published: December 2018

AbstractThe inscriptions on two late Roman Iron Age coins conserved in the Ossolineum in Wrocław appear to record an early Gothic noun and name respectively. One, an imitation of an aureus of Severus Alexander, bears a runic text that seems best to be taken as [h]rustis›adornment‹. The other, an aureus of Postumus, appears to feature a nameGunþeisorGutteisscratched into it recorded in Greek letters. Both of the coins feature holes bored in them, indicating that they were formerly worn as pendants, much like the later Migration Age bracteates.
Revolution predigen, Karottensaft trinken?

Published: December 2018

Abstract
Bei Degrowth oder Postwachstum handelt es sich – wie bei jedem politisch-aktivistischen Akteursspektrum – nicht um einen einheitlichen Block, sondern um ein in jeder Hinsicht (praktisch, sozial, politisch) heterogenes, von vielfältigen Spannungslinien durchzogenes Feld. In bisherigen Arbeiten wurden hier vor allem die inhaltlich-politischen Positionierungen im Degrowth-Spektrum analysiert und entsprechende Strömungen unterschieden. Unter Einbeziehung von Daten zur aktivistischen und alltäglichen Praxis der Befragten entwickeln wir in diesem Artikel mit Hilfe einer Multiplen Korrespondenzanalyse einer Teilnehmendenbefragung der Leipziger Degrowth-Konferenz 2014 ein Gesamtbild, eine Art „Landkarte“, des sozialen Feldes des Degrowth-Spektrums, auf der Einstellungen und Praxis zueinander ins Verhältnis gesetzt werden.
Gefährliches Werben
Authors: Eversberg Dennis 
Published: December 2018

Abstract
Eine immer wieder geäußerte Kritik an Postwachstums- und Degrowth-Ansätzen unterstellt diesen unreflektierte Offenheiten und Anknüpfungspunkte für eine Unterwanderung oder Instrumentalisierung durch autoritär-nationalistische und völkisch-rassistische Akteure, oder gar stillschweigende Sympathie für deren Positionen. Der Beitrag geht dieser Kritik nach, indem er aufzeigt, in welcher Weise sich verschiedene rechte Gruppierungen und Autoren auf Wachstumskritik beziehen, wie sie sie zu vereinnahmen versuchen, und welche Argumente aus der wachstumskritischen Diskussion sich ihnen dafür besonders anbieten. Anschließend wird der Umgang der verschiedenen Strömungen von wachstumskritischer Debatte und Aktivismus in Deutschland mit solchen Avancen diskutiert, und es werden Anforderungen an eine ‚vereinnahmungsfeste‘ wachstumskritische Position herausgearbeitet.
Fructooligosaccharide Inhibits the Absorption of β-conglycinin (A Major Soybean Allergen) in IPEC-J2

Published: December 2018

Abstract
Dissecting the inhibited variation of allergen absorption could contribute to the development of novel therapeutic or preventive treatments for food/feed allergies. This study investigated the effects of fructooligosaccharide (FOS) on the absorption, intracellular accumulation of intact or hydrolysed β-conglycinin in porcine intestinal epithelial cells (IPEC-J2). As demonstrated by ELISA and immunoblotting, β-conglycinin was absorbed in a dose- and time-dependent manner (p < 0.05). Actually, β-conglycinin was easily transported and absorbed after enzymatic hydrolysis. Three peptides (52 kDa, 30 kDa and 25 kDa) were produced during transcellular absorption of intact or hydrolysed β-conglycinin. FOS inhibited the absorption of β-conglycinin, especially the 52 and 30 kDa peptides. The immunoreactive peptides derived from the 52, 35 or 22 kDa peptides were the substrings of the known epitopes determined by mass spectrometry and bioinformatic analyses. These results indicate that FOS can efficiently inhibit the absorption of 52 and 30 kDa peptides derived from β-conglycinin.
Numerical Treatment of the Fractional Modeling on Susceptible-Infected-Recovered Equations with a Constant Vaccination Rate by Using GEM
Authors: Khader M. M. , Adel M. 
Published: December 2018

Abstract
Here, we introduce a numerical solution by using the generalized Euler method for the (Caputo sense) fractional Susceptible-Infected-Recovered (SIR) model with a constant vaccination rate. We compare the obtained numerical solutions with those solutions by using the RK4. Hence, the obtained numerical results of the SIR model show the simplicity and the efficiency of the proposed method.
Description, acquisition and teaching of polysemous verbs: The case ofquedar
Authors: Gómez Vicente Lucía 
Published: December 2018

AbstractThis paper analyzes the usage of frequent polysemous verbs by native speakers and by L2 learners and it makes several pedagogical suggestions on how to teach polysemous verbs in a L2 classroom. To achieve these objectives, we have examined the case of the Spanish verbquedar, which means “to remain”, “to stay”, “to be left”, “to make an appointment”, etc. A methodology based on narratives and sentence elicitation has been created. The experiences were accomplished by Spanish speakers (adults and children), and French university students of Spanish, who performed productions in Spanish (L2) and in French (L1). The results of this study seem to confirm that adult native speakers used the semantic network of polysemous verbs in a very conventional manner. Meanings appear to have been acquired thanks to usage, by storing linguistic experiences as patterns, and operating mostly by analogy process. Children seem to have primarily elicitedquedarin conventional situations (for instance, to fix an appointment) and depending on a cost-effectiveness criteria (only if this verb adds a pragmatic gain compared to simpler options). The acquisition path ofquedarby children (L1) seems to be driven by different factors than for L2 learners. French learners of Spanish usedquedarmeanings differently from native speakers and they were highly influenced by their L1, both semantically and syntactically.
Two Aspects of Moral Habituation in Aristotle’s Practical Science
Authors: Chen Siyi 
Published: December 2018

Abstract
Through a detailed reconstruction of the process of moral habituation, which includes both a desiderative and an intellectual aspect, I demonstrate in this essay that Aristotelian practical science does not make people practically wise on a ground and personal level, but teaches moral educators how to produce basically good men in and through practice. In particular, the formation of the correct wish for happiness is the natural culmination of desiderative habituation, and intellectual habituation that develops personal practical wisdom is mainly a process of moral apprenticeship under senior statesmen. My analyses of the aspects of moral habituation should reveal that even in his practical science, that is, in a kind of theory pursued for the sake of practice, Aristotle still maintains the clear distinction between theoretical and practical intelligence and shows deep insights into the peculiarity of the latter.
L’iride e la Trinità: Osservazioni sulle fonti di Basilio, Epistula 38,5
Authors: Verde Francesco 
Published: December 2018

Abstract
The focus of this contribution is to examine the section 5 (Courtonne) of Basil’s Letter 38 devoted to the rainbow considered as a physical metaphor of the Trinity. The main purpose is to scrutinize the likely ancient pagan sources of Basil’s description of rainbow’s formation. The present article concludes by pointing out that the sources used by Basil could be traced back to Aristotle’s Meteorology and the Stoics (especially Posidonius), without denying an Epicurean influence too. The most interesting point is that the author of the letter seems to occasionally modify the ancient sources on the rainbow he consults in order to make the explanation of the rainbow consistent with his theological/Trinitarian scope. Since several studies confirmed the deep interest of Basil in the explanation of natural phenomena (always for theological and not scientific goals) on the basis of the theories of the ancient pagan Greek philosophers, it cannot be ruled out the possibility that Basil actually was the author of this epistle. This question is very problematic; it is not resolved but, in my opinion, it should also be reconsidered in the light of the part of the letter devoted to the comparison with the rainbow.

Das Trennrohr VI. Isolierung des Mischmoleküls 14 N 15 N
Authors: Clusius Klaus , Becker Erwin Willy 
Published: December 2018

Abstract In der früher beschriebenen 82 m langen Trennrohranlage wurde das schwere Stick-stoffisotop 15 N in Form des Mischmoleküls 14 N 15 N gewonnen. Als Ausgangsmaterial diente Stickstoff, der durch chemischen Austausch bereits auf 1,8% bzw. 3% 15 N gegenüber dem natürlichen Gehalt von 0,38% angereichert war. Das zu trennende Gasgemisch enthielt vorwiegend 14 N2 neben 3,47 bis 5,82% 14 N 15 N und 0,03 bis 0,09% 15 N2. Am schweren Ende stieg das Mol.-Gewicht auf 29,015; dies entspricht der Abscheidung des Mischmoleküls 14 N 15 N in einer Reinheit von 98,95% neben 1,05% 15 N. Von diesem Gas wurden 1,5 l rein sowie ein weiteres Liter mit 50% 14 N 15 N aufgesammelt, die, rund 61% des anfänglich ein-gefüllten schweren Stickstoffs enthalten. Die Untersuchung beweist, daß bei 700º C an den Platindrähten des Trennrohrs das Gleichgewicht 214 N15 N ⇋ 14N2 + 15N2

sich nicht merklich einstellt. Sonst müßte ein Gas mit hohem ^Ns-Gehalt, d.h. einem
Mol.-Gewicht von über 29, am schweren Ende auftreten, was nicht der Fall ist. Stickstoff
zeigt somit das entgegengesetzte Verhalten wie Sauerstoff, bei dem die entsprechenden
isotopen Gleichgewichte sich so rasch einstellen, daß sie für die Zusammensetzung am
schweren Ende entscheidend sind.
Die Analysen der isotopen Stickstoffgemische wurden teils mit der Gaswaage, teils
durch Aufnahmen der UV.-Bande bei 2977,5 A ausgeführt.
Über die Kondensation aus überhitztem Arsenikdampf
Authors: Stranski I. N. , Korb A . , Becker K. 
Published: December 2018

Abstract
Mit einem evakuierten und abgeschmolzenen Glasgefäß, das Arsenolith als Boden-körper und eine heizbare Pt-Spirale enthält, werden folgende Versuche durchgeführt: Das Gefäß wird in einen Thermostaten gebracht, dessen Temperatur bei den verschie-denen Versuchen auf 200 bzw. 230 ° C eingestellt worden ist. Wenn die Temperatur der elektrisch erhitzten Pt-Spirale höher als 700 °C liegt, so verschwindet der Arsenolith als Bodenkörper und erscheint als Kondensat an der (heißeren) Gefäßwand in un-mittelbarer Nähe der Spirale. Das glasig aussehende Kondensat erweist sich stets als Arsenolith. , Dieser als neuartig erkannte Kondensationseffekt muß mit der stärkeren Adsorbier-barkeit der dissoziierten Moleküle (As203) in Zusammenhang stehen und läßt sich pas-send als aktivierte oder erzwungene Kondensation kennzeichnen. Entsprechend dosierte Arsenolith-Mengen werden in ein starkwandiges Quarzrohr ge-bracht, das evakuiert, abgeschmolzen, auf 1300° C erhitzt und dann durch Einwerfen in Wasser oder flüssige Luft schnell abgekühlt wird. Hierbei entsteht eine neue Modifika-tion, deren Debye-Scherrer-Diagramm sich verschieden von dem des Arsenoliths und Claudetits erweist.
Das elektrodynamische Verhalten der Supraleiter
Authors: Heisenberg Werner 
Published: December 2018

Abstract
Das in einer früheren Arbeit vorgeschlagene Modell eines Supraleiters wird auf sein elektrodynamisches Verhalten im einzelnen untersucht. Die Berechnung der Supra-leitungskonstante λ ergibt die richtige Temperaturabhängigkeit dieser Größe und führt außerdem zu einem Zusammenhang mit dem Restwiderstand. Bei der Erklärung des Meißner-Ochsenfeld-Effekts, die von der in I versuchten grundsätzlich verschieden ist, wird von der Existenz der spontan gebildeten Stromfäden (der "Weißschen Be-zirke") an einer wesentlichen Stelle Gebrauch gemacht. Die Wärmeleitfähigkeit wird durch das Einfrieren von Elektronen in der Gitterphase herabgesetzt, ihre Temperaturabhängigkeit wird mit Hilfe des Modells abgeschätzt.
Fehlermöglichkeiten bei massenspektrogräphischen Dublettmessungen II
Authors: Ewald Heinz 
Published: December 2018

Abstract
Kürzlich wurde gezeigt, daß bei Verwendung der Kanalstrahlröhre als Ionenquelle eine für die verschiedenen Ionensorten sehr ungleichartige Ausleuchtung des Spektro-graphenspaltes ernste Fehler bei der Bestimmung von Dublettabständen im Gefolge haben kann. Diese Fehler können durch Verkürzung des möglichst gut justierten Spal-tes von 4 mm auf 0,2 mm genügend klein gemacht werden. Zugleich werden damit die bisherigen Schwierigkeiten, jederzeit Linien der theoretisch zu erwartenden Schärfe zu erhalten, behoben. Weiter wird aber an Hand von Aufnahmeergebnissen gezeigt, daß die Ionenstrahlen nach Durchtritt durch den Präzisionsspalt für die verschiedenen lonensorten sehr verschiedene, enge Öffnungswinkel erfüllen. Damit nehmen die Fehler zweiter Ordnung - die Linienbreite ist in zweiter Näherung von dem Öffnungswinkel abhängig - für die verschiedenen Linien verschiedene Größe an. Diese Verbreiterungen sind im allgemeinen unsymmetrisch. Die daraus folgenden neuen Fehlermög-lichkeiten bei Bestimmungen von Dublettabständen werden im einzelnen untersucht. s wird abgeschätzt, daß der Öffnungswinkel der Strahlen in der Ablenkebene der Apparatur etwa die Größe 0,05° nicht übersteigen darf.

Sniff Invariant Odor Coding
Authors: Shusterman Roman , Sirotin Yevgeniy B. , Smear Matthew C. , Ahmadian Yashar , Rinberg Dmitry 
Published: December 2018

AbstractSampling regulates stimulus intensity and temporal dynamics at the sense organ. Despite variations in sampling behavior, animals must make veridical perceptual judgments about external stimuli. In olfaction, odor sampling varies with respiration, which influences neural responses at the olfactory periphery. Nevertheless, rats were able to perform fine odor intensity judgments despite variations in sniff kinetics. To identify the features of neural activity supporting stable intensity perception, in awake mice we measured responses of mitral/tufted (MT) cells to different odors and concentrations across a range of sniff frequencies. Amplitude and latency of the MT cells’ responses vary with sniff duration. A fluid dynamics (FD) model based on odor concentration kinetics in the intranasal cavity can account for this variability. Eliminating sniff waveform dependence of MT cell responses using the FD model allows for significantly better decoding of concentration. This suggests potential schemes for sniff waveform invariant odor concentration coding.
Lateralized Suppression of Alpha-Band EEG Activity As a Mechanism of Target Processing
Authors: Bacigalupo Felix , Luck Steven J. 
Published: December 2018

Alpha-band (8–12 Hz) EEG activity has been linked to visual attention since the earliest EEG studies. More recent studies using spatial cuing paradigms have shown that alpha is suppressed over the hemisphere contralateral to a to-be-attended location, suggesting that alpha serves as a mechanism of preparatory attention. Here, we demonstrate that alpha also plays a role in active target processing. EEG activity was recorded from a group of healthy male and female human subjects in two visual search experiments. In addition to alpha activity, we also assessed the N2pc event-related potential component, a lateralized transient EEG response that has been tightly linked with the focusing of attention on visual targets. We found that the visual search targets triggered both an N2pc component and a suppression of alpha-band activity that was greatest over the hemisphere contralateral to the target (which we call “target-elicited lateralized alpha suppression” or TELAS). In Experiment 1, both N2pc and TELAS were observed for targets presented in the lower visual field but were absent for upper-field targets. However, these two lateralized effects had different time courses and they responded differently to manipulations of crowding in Experiment 2. These results indicate that lateralized alpha-band activity is involved in active target processing and is not solely a preparatory mechanism and also that TELAS and N2pc reflect a related but separable neural mechanism of visuospatial attention.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTThe very first EEG studies demonstrated that alpha-band (8–12 Hz) EEG oscillations are suppressed when people attend to visual information and more recent research has shown that cuing an individual to expect a target at a specific location produces lateralized suppression in the contralateral hemisphere. Therefore, lateralized alpha may serve as a preparatory mechanism. In the present study, we found that a similar lateralized alpha effect is triggered by the appearance of a visual target even though the location could not be anticipated, demonstrating that alpha also serves as an active mechanism of target processing. Moreover, we found that alpha lateralization can be dissociated from other lateralized measures of target selection, indicating that it reflects a distinct mechanism of attention.

The Caenorhabditis elegans SMOC-1 Protein Acts Cell Nonautonomously To Promote Bone Morphogenetic Protein Signaling
Authors: DeGroot Melisa S , Shi Herong , Eastman Alice , McKillop Alexandra N , Liu Jun 
Published: December 2018

Abstract
Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling regulates many different developmental and homeostatic processes in metazoans. The BMP pathway is conserved in Caenorhabditis elegans, and is known to regulate body size and mesoderm development. We have identified the C. elegans smoc-1 (Secreted MOdular Calcium-binding protein-1) gene as a new player in the BMP pathway. smoc-1(0) mutants have a small body size, while overexpression of smoc-1 leads to a long body size and increased expression of the RAD-SMAD (reporter acting downstream of SMAD) BMP reporter, suggesting that SMOC-1 acts as a positive modulator of BMP signaling. Using double-mutant analysis, we showed that SMOC-1 antagonizes the function of the glypican LON-2 and acts through the BMP ligand DBL-1 to regulate BMP signaling. Moreover, SMOC-1 appears to specifically regulate BMP signaling without significant involvement in a TGFβ-like pathway that regulates dauer development. We found that smoc-1 is expressed in multiple tissues, including cells of the pharynx, intestine, and posterior hypodermis, and that the expression of smoc-1 in the intestine is positively regulated by BMP signaling. We further established that SMOC-1 functions cell nonautonomously to regulate body size. Human SMOC1 and SMOC2 can each partially rescue the smoc-1(0) mutant phenotype, suggesting that SMOC-1’s function in modulating BMP signaling is evolutionarily conserved. Together, our findings highlight a conserved role of SMOC proteins in modulating BMP signaling in metazoans.

Published: December 2018

BACKGROUND:
Although caffeine use for apnea of prematurity is well studied, the long-term safety and benefit of routine early caffeine administration has not been explored. Our objective was to determine the association between early (within 2 days of birth) versus late caffeine exposure and neurodevelopmental outcomes in preterm infants.

METHODS:
Infants of &lt;29 weeks’ gestation born between April 2009 and September 2011 and admitted to Canadian Neonatal Network units and then assessed at Canadian Neonatal Follow-up Network centers were studied. Neonates who received caffeine were divided into early- (received within 2 days of birth) and late-caffeine (received after 2 days of birth) groups. The primary outcome was significant neurodevelopmental impairment, defined as cerebral palsy, or a Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development, Third Edition composite score of &lt;70 on any component, hearing aid or cochlear implant, or bilateral visual impairment at 18 to 24 months’ corrected age.

RESULTS:
Of 2108 neonates who were eligible, 1545 were in the early-caffeine group and 563 were in the late-caffeine group. Rates of bronchopulmonary dysplasia, patent ductus arteriosus, and severe neurologic injury were lower in the early-caffeine group than in the late-caffeine group. Significant neurodevelopmental impairment (adjusted odds ratio 0.68 [95% confidence interval 0.50–0.94]) and odds of Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development, Third Edition cognitive scores of &lt;85 (adjusted odds ratio 0.67 [95% confidence interval 0.47–0.95]) were lower in the early-caffeine group than in the late-caffeine group. Propensity score–based matched-pair analyses revealed lower odds of cerebral palsy and hearing impairment only.

CONCLUSIONS:
Early caffeine therapy is associated with better neurodevelopmental outcomes compared with late caffeine therapy in preterm infants born at &lt;29 weeks’ gestation.
