Public libraries in Switzerland: RDA and the FRBRization watershed
Authors: Banfi Elisa , Gaudinat Arnaud 
Published: September 2018

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to investigate how Swiss public libraries are experiencing a normative revolution connected to new cataloging standards, such as RDA and the FRBRization of catalogs.Design/methodology/approachThanks to semi-structured interviews, the paper analyzes the current positioning of Swiss public libraries on the “bibliographic transition” issue by using a case study of the network of municipal libraries in Geneva.FindingsIn Switzerland, the federal and multi-linguistic structure of the library networks increases the organizational obstacles to the adoption of new cataloging principles and formats. At the local level, the Swiss municipal libraries have to cope with this complexity to transform their structures and continue to offer competitive and effective services to their users.Practical implicationsThe paper proposes six scenarios of technology watershed for the analyzed case study and their consequences for cataloging standards and rules.Social implicationsThe paper shows how the adoption of technological and conceptual innovations has to be done in the face of real organizational and administrative constraints, especially in the case of public lending libraries.Originality/valueThe paper analyzes at the empirical and theoretical levels how, especially in Switzerland, the variety of governance levels and linguistic areas have made strategizing more complex for public lending libraries.

SummaryIn the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae, the cell wall integrity (CWI) signalling pathway governs cell wall changes in response to external cues and normal CWI signalling is critical for appressorium function and pathogenicity. We previously characterized the mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK) kinase MoMkk1 as an integral component of the CWI pathway. Using the affinity purification approach, we have identified MoMkk1‐interacting MoPpe1 as a homologue of Saccharomyces cerevisiae serine/threonine protein phosphatase Sit4/Ppe1. We found that MoPpe1 is required for vegetative growth, conidiation and full virulence. In addition, we found that MoPpe1 interacts with MoSap1, a protein with functions similar to MoPpe1. Intriguingly, we found that MoPpe1–MoSap1 interaction is related to CWI and target of rapamycin (TOR) pathways. We presented evidence suggesting that MoPpe1 and MoSap1 function as an adaptor complex linking CWI and TOR signalling and that the activation of the TOR pathway leads to suppression of CWI signalling, resulting in defects in appressorium function and pathogenicity. Taken together, our studies not only reveal important functions of MoMkk1–MoPpe1–MoSap1 interactions in growth and pathogenicity of the blast fungus, but also highlight the complexity of regulatory networks involving conserved yet novel regulatory mechanisms of CWI and TOR signalling.
Therapies and outcomes of congenital hyperinsulinism‐induced hypoglycaemia

Published: September 2018

AbstractCongenital hyperinsulinism is a rare disease, but is the most frequent cause of persistent and severe hypoglycaemia in early childhood. Hypoglycaemia caused by excessive and dysregulated insulin secretion (hyperinsulinism) from disordered pancreatic β cells can often lead to irreversible brain damage with lifelong neurodisability. Although congenital hyperinsulinism has a genetic cause in a significant proportion (40%) of children, often being the result of mutations in the genes encoding the KATP channel (ABCC8 and KCNJ11), not all children have severe and persistent forms of the disease. In approximately half of those without a genetic mutation, hyperinsulinism may resolve, although timescales are unpredictable. From a histopathology perspective, congenital hyperinsulinism is broadly grouped into diffuse and focal forms, with surgical lesionectomy being the preferred choice of treatment in the latter. In contrast, in diffuse congenital hyperinsulinism, medical treatment is the best option if conservative management is safe and effective. In such cases, children receiving treatment with drugs, such as diazoxide and octreotide, should be monitored for side effects and for signs of reduction in disease severity. If hypoglycaemia is not safely managed by medical therapy, subtotal pancreatectomy may be required; however, persistent hypoglycaemia may continue after surgery and diabetes is an inevitable consequence in later life. It is important to recognize the negative cognitive impact of early‐life hypoglycaemia which affects half of all children with congenital hyperinsulinism. Treatment options should be individualized to the child/young person with congenital hyperinsulinism, with full discussion regarding efficacy, side effects, outcomes and later life impact.
From Partnership to Liberation
Authors: Crawford Janet 
Published: September 2018

AbstractAlthough there were more women present at the 4th Assembly of the World Council of Churches (WCC) at Uppsala in 1968 than at previous assemblies, they still formed less than 10 percent of the voting delegates. There was thus a large discrepancy between the WCC's theological statements on the cooperation of women and men and the various power structures found in the WCC and its member churches. Nevertheless, Uppsala marked a significant turning point for women in the WCC. The expansion of the WCC, the commitment to restructuring, and the emergence of new leadership all contributed to the beginning at Uppsala of a new era in the ecumenical movement, leading to a shift in discourse from cooperation to liberation, and a new awareness of women's universal struggle for liberation from all forms of discrimination and oppression.
Political Ecumenism and 1968
Authors: Westhelle Maike 
Published: September 2018

AbstractThe political night prayers in Cologne were a project that reflected the politicization and ecumenism that occupied the Christian confessions in 1968, not only in Uppsala. They were an attempt to consistently bring public policy and faith together. A large group of organizers, influenced by the work of women intellectuals, held monthly services that dealt with current issues. They were distinguished by the information they provided and by discussions, which aimed at stimulating meditation and concrete actions. The services attracted up to a thousand participants and became well known throughout Germany. The political night prayers encountered resistance from church leaders and conservative theologians. In this project, ecumenism was realized as local political ecumenism.
“Behold, I Make All Things New”
Authors: Moltmann Jürgen 
Published: September 2018

AbstractThe theme of the 4th Assembly of the World Council of Churches in Uppsala in 1968 was “Behold, I make all things new.” God's great promise in Revelation precisely reflected the fears and hopes of the turbulent 1960s. This promise is realized in the experience of faith, and in this certainty, Christianity goes out to meet the great future of God in the world. The connection between this promised future and the advent of the new creation experienced by Christians was captured in Uppsala by the concept of “anticipation.” This article traces the impetus of the impulse of the Uppsala assembly through the World Student Conference in Finland in 1968 and the Conference on World Mission and Evangelism in Bangkok in 1973–73.
Survival of the fewest: Microbial dormancy and maintenance in marine sediments through deep time
Authors: Bradley James A. , Amend Jan P. , LaRowe Douglas E. 
Published: September 2018

AbstractMicroorganisms buried in marine sediments are known to endure starvation over geologic timescales. However, the mechanisms of how these microorganisms cope with prolonged energy limitation is unknown and therefore yet to be captured in a quantitative framework. Here, we present a novel mathematical model that considers (a) the physiological transitions between the active and dormant states of microorganisms, (b) the varying requirement for maintenance power between these phases, and (c) flexibility in the provenance (i.e., source) of energy from exogenous and endogenous catabolism. The model is applied to sediments underlying the oligotrophic South Pacific Gyre where microorganisms endure ultra‐low fluxes of energy for tens of millions of years. Good fits between model simulations and measurements of cellular carbon and organic carbon concentrations are obtained and are interpreted as follows: (a) the unfavourable microbial habitat in South Pacific Gyre sediments triggers rapid mortality and a transition to dormancy; (b) there is minimal biomass growth, and organic carbon consumption is dominated by catabolism to support maintenance activities rather than new biomass synthesis; (c) the amount of organic carbon that microorganisms consume for maintenance activities is equivalent to approximately 2% of their carbon biomass per year; and (d) microorganisms must rely solely on exogenous rather than endogenous catabolism to persist in South Pacific Gyre sediments over long timescales. This leads us to the conclusion that under oligotrophic conditions, the fitness of an organism is determined by its ability to simply stay alive, rather than to grow. This modelling framework is designed to be flexible for application to other sites and habitats, and thus serves as a new quantitative tool for determining the habitability of and an ultimate limit for life in any environment.
Lithology and radiolarian age of the Ryokami‐yama Chert Formation in eastern Mt. Ryokami: Possible décollement zone in Permian pelagic sequence in mid‐Mesozoic accretionary complexes of Southwest Japan
Authors: Ito Tsuyoshi , Matsuoka Atsushi 
Published: September 2018

AbstractUppermost Permian–lowermost Triassic siliceous claystone is well‐known as being a possible décollement zone in accretionary processes of mid‐Mesozoic accretionary complexes in Southwest Japan; meanwhile, fewer studies have focused on other décollement zones in Permian pelagic sequences. The Ryokami‐yama Thrust in the Southern Chichibu terrane, eastern Mt. Ryokami, Kanto Mountains, has been considered an out‐of‐sequence thrust and might show a former décollement zone in the formation's Permian pelagic sequences. This study shows the Permian pelagic sequences (lithology and radiolarian age) of the Ryokami‐yama Chert Formation on the Ryokami‐yama Thrust. The basal part of the Ryokami‐yama Chert Formation consists of pale‐green basaltic tuff breccia and overlying red‐ocher thick‐bedded chert intercalating dolomites. The red‐ocher thick‐bedded chert yielded radiolarians of the Pseudoalbaillella lomentaria Range‐Zone of the Sakmarian (Cisuralian: lower Permian). Compilation of the Permian pelagic sequences of the mid‐Mesozoic accretionary complexes in previous studies indicates that the bases of the Permian chert of many geologic units are concentrated in the Pseudoalbaillella lomentaria Range‐Zone. The following hypothesis is suggested here: the basaltic rock underlying the Sakmarian chert acted as a décollement zone in the Permian pelagic sequences of some geologic units of the mid‐Mesozoic accretionary complexes.

AbstractThere is an inevitable demand for attempts to be made regarding hydration process enhancement of agricultural products. In this realm, application of cutting‐edge ultrasound technology has been recently arisen as promising tool. This investigation covers thermodynamic aspects of the effect of ultrasonication on hydration mechanism of wheat. The hydration process was performed at five hydration temperatures of 30, 40, 50, 60, and 70 °C in ultrasonication conditions named control (without ultrasound treatment), US1 (25 kHz, 360 W), and US2 (40 kHz, 480 W). Thermodynamic parameters of activation energy, enthalpy, entropy, and the Gibbs free energy during hydration process were then determined. In accordance with obtained values of the parameters, it can be addressed that ultrasound‐assisted hydration process was endothermic reaction corresponds to an increase in system order as well as it was not spontaneous for each experimental hydration temperature and ultrasonication condition. It should be also pointed out that ultrasonication condition reduced activation energy, enthalpy change, and the Gibbs free energy change by approximately 15, 17, and 9%, respectively. However, it increased entropy change by approximately 9% for all hydration temperatures.Practical applicationsThe outcome of this attempt could be served as a tool for deep root understanding of heat and mass transfer phenomena during ultrasound‐assisted hydration process of wheat kernel in seed priming, flour milling (tempering), making dough, and wet storage processes.
Numerical study of a plate heat exchanger using CFD: Comparison of texture loss assessed by rheological measurements

Published: September 2018

AbstractThe producers of dairy products must control the final quality of products by evaluating their textures. Certain devices on production lines such as heat exchangers cause texture losses, affecting product consistency. The mechanical stress due to plate heat exchangers is often at the origin of this change, although evaluations of products as they flow through heat exchangers are lacking. This work proposes a coupled approach to determine texture loss for yoghurt in a heat exchanger using rheological measurements and a Computational Fluid Dynamics approach. The results are based on the quantification of mechanical stress and compared with experimental measurements performed to evaluate texture loss in yoghurt samples.Practical applicationsThe objective of this work is to optimize the production lines for dairy products such as yoghurts. To date, texture losses appear during their manufacture, resulting in a decrease in viscosity compared with the desired quality on the final product. By describing the behavior of yoghurt in a plate heat exchanger, the Computational Fluid Dynamics can diagnose mechanical stress and provide information that producers cannot access to improve their process. The work was carried out on a laboratory plate heat exchanger, which was used to select the yoghurt cultures used to produce the finished product. Simulations bring mechanical stress information to producers. They can thus correlate it to the loss of texture. The aim is to be able to reproduce this mechanical stress with devices other than the plate heat exchanger, but by first evaluating by modeling the mechanical stress to be applied.

AbstractThe study evaluated to implement good handling practices in the food and beverage areas of hotels under guidance of an outsourced professional and to evaluate the investments needed for their implementation and maintenance. A checklist for good handling practices was applied and a plan of action was developed to correct the nonconformities found. After 22 months, the checklist was applied again and a survey was conducted of the initial financial investments, and the investments for maintenance of the program and of the number of guests served during the implementation. After the financial investments and the accompaniment by an outsourced professional were made, the hotels had significant improvements (p = .0051) in the hygienic‐sanitary conditions. In relation to costs, the requirement that had the highest initial investment was for buildings, installations, equipment, furniture, and utensils ($ 166.71 to $ 34,002.57). There was significant improvement between the first and second evaluations, which demonstrates the importance of skilled outsourced professionals to assist in the changes and investments made in the implementation of good handling practices.Practical applicationsThis study is important because it evaluates to implement good handling practices in the food and beverage areas of hotels under guidance of an outsourced professional and the investments needed for their implementation and maintenance, to assist in the development of tools and strategies to improve hygienic‐sanitary conditions and to make the owners and other professionals involved in the segment aware of the importance of investing in order to reduce the risk of foodborne disease.

ObjectivesTo evaluate whether risk of fall‐related injuries differs between nursing home (NH) residents newly dispensed low‐dose trazodone and those newly dispensed benzodiazepines.DesignRetrospective, matched cohort study in linked, population‐based administrative data. Matching was based on propensity score ( ± 0.2 standard deviations of the score as a caliper), age ( ± 1 year), sex, frailty status, and history of dementia. The derived propensity score included demographic characteristics, clinical comorbidities, cognitive and functional status, and risk factors for falls.SettingAll NHs in Ontario, Canada.ParticipantsPropensity score–matched pairs of residents aged 66 and older who received a full clinical assessment between April 1, 2010, and March 31, 2015 (N=7,791).MeasurementsHospitalization (emergency department visit or acute care admission) for a fall‐related injury within 90 days of exposure. Subdistribution hazard functions accounted for competing risk of death. Sensitivity analyses were used to examine falls resulting in hip or wrist fracture only, as well as different lengths of follow‐up at 30, 60, and 180 days.ResultsCumulative incidence of a fall‐related injury in the 90 days after index was 5.7% for low‐dose trazodone users and 6.0% for benzodiazepine users (between‐group change=–0.29, 95% confidence interval (CI)=–1.02–0.44]; hazard ratio=0.94, 95% CI=0.83–1.08). Findings were consistent across sensitivity analyses.ConclusionNew use of low‐dose trazodone was no safer with respect to a risk of a fall‐related injury than new use of benzodiazepines. Additional studies to compare the effectiveness and risks of low‐dose trazodone with those of a variety of psychotropic drug therapies are required in light of increasing trends in the use of trazodone in NHs.
Individual differences in emotion regulation goals: Does personality predict the reasons why people regulate their emotions?
Authors: Eldesouky Lameese , English Tammy 
Published: September 2018

AbstractObjectiveWe investigated how the Big Five traits predict individual differences in five theoretically important emotion regulation goals that are commonly pursued—pro‐hedonic, contra‐hedonic, performance, pro‐social, and impression management.MethodWe conducted two studies: (a) a large survey study consisting of undergraduates (N = 394; 18–25 years; 69% female; 56% European American) and community adults (N = 302; 19–74 years; 50% female; 75% European American) who completed a newly developed global measure of individual differences in emotion regulation goals and (b) a 9‐day daily diary study with community adults (N = 272; 23–85 years; 50% female; 84% European American) who completed daily reports of emotion regulation goals. In both studies, participants completed a measure of the Big Five.ResultsAcross global and daily measures, pro‐hedonic goals and pro‐social goals were positively associated with Agreeableness, performance goals were positively associated with Openness, and impression management goals were positively associated with Neuroticism. Globally, contra‐hedonic goals were also negatively associated with Agreeableness and Conscientiousness.ConclusionsThe Big Five systematically predict the emotion regulation goals people typically pursue. These findings have important implications for understanding why people engage in certain forms of regulatory behavior and why personality has consequences for well‐being.
Unstimulated saliva: Background noise in taste molecules
Authors: Feron Gilles 
Published: September 2018

AbstractSaliva is a highly complex bodily fluid composed of many proteins, peptides, small organic molecules, and ions. Saliva is produced and secreted by the major and minor salivary glands to protect the mouth and to participate in digestion. Generally, a distinction is made between unstimulated saliva that is a result of autonomic stimulation and stimulated saliva that is produced during chewing and taste stimulation. The link between saliva and sensory perception can thus be regarded in two ways: the role of unstimulated saliva as a background taste and the mechanistic role of stimulated saliva during eating. Indeed, unstimulated saliva (and its components) is continuously bathing our oral cavity and as such stimulates our taste receptors, thus playing a role in taste sensitivity. However, the role of unstimulated salivary components in mediating taste has been studied only in very few substances. To explore this question, this review attempts to compare data from the literature on unstimulated salivary composition with those on taste sensitivity. The main conclusion centres around the concept that the gustatory self‐adaptation phenomenon may be relevant for only a few salivary compounds. Further studies at the level of the salivary Von Ebner glands and salivary pellicle are necessary before arriving at definitive conclusions on this subject.Practical applicationUnstimulated saliva contains taste substances that can influence sensory perception through taste adaptation. However, large inter‐individual variability exists in unstimulated salivary composition both qualitatively and quantitatively. These differences may explain the variability in taste perception and thus the food choices and behaviors of an individual. Thus, in the context of providing personalized food and nutrition to the consumer, variability of unstimulated saliva should be considered for specific formulation of food products.
