When grammaticalization does not occur
Authors: Reinöhl Uta , Casaretto Antje 
Published: July 2018

AbstractRecent decades have seen a surge of interest in grammaticalization. In this paper, however, we are not concerned with reaching a better understanding of the nature of grammaticalization phenomena or their triggering factors, but we ask under what circumstances grammaticalization does not take place, even if it would have seemed likely to – a topic that has scarcely been addressed in the literature. Based on a comparative investigation of the historical development of a class of Indo-European spatial adverbs, we argue that mismatches between layers of linguistic structure present one type of situation in which grammaticalization may be blocked. For grammaticalization to occur, the outer semantic-syntactic boundaries of the potentially grammaticalizing construction must be matched by prosodic boundaries. If prosodic chunking is shifted in relation to semantic-syntactic chunking, grammaticalization may be prevented.
Changing frequencies in a constructional landscape
Authors: Nieuwenhuijsen Dorien 
Published: July 2018

AbstractMany studies on Spanish verbal periphrases either discuss the general features of the syntactic category or analyse the semantic and functional differences between specific members of that category. The present paper focusses on one particular periphrasis,parecer“to seem” + infinitive but, at the same time, takes into account a similar, impersonal construction withparecer. Adopting a constructionist, usage-based approach, data are drawn from a large diachronic corpus, which makes it possible to describe the interplay between the two competing constructions and identify different semantic and syntactic contexts that favoured the increase of the periphrasis in the 19th century at the cost of the impersonal construction. More generally, the paper addresses the relevance of studying individual constructions in the context of other semantically and/or formally related constructions, since a change in one particular area of the constructional landscape can have repercussions on other areas as well.
Languages as complete and distinct systems of reference
Authors: Langendoen D. Terence 
Published: July 2018

Abstract

Section 1 is an extended commentary on Edward Sapir’s formulation nearly a century ago of what he considered the two most fundamental properties of human language, first that each one is a formally complete system of reference to experience and second that each one is formally distinct from every other. Section 2 considers some aspects of the development of these formulations, noting that they have been considered separately and not integrated as fully fleshed out systems of reference, as Sapir envisioned. Section 3 examines more closely what such an integration looks like in a case involving simple arithmetic. Section 4 begins with a brief review of the accomplishments of Greco-Roman logic and more recent developments in the theory of logic, leading to a consideration of what may be needed to fulfill Sapir’s program. Section 5 summarizes some of my own recent research on extending first-order logic by replacing the unordered set of individuals with a specific ordering of a set of sets of individuals that is isomorphic to an ordering of sets of sets of numbers that contain no pairs of divisible numbers, which was investigated by Richard Dedekind shortly before the turn of the twentieth century.

Published: July 2018

Abstract
In this paper, a comparative study on energy and cost saving in a self-aspirated domestic LPG cook-stove with porous radiant burner (SAPRB) developed by Mishra et al. [1] with reference to a conventional LPG burner (CB) using Controlled Cooking Test (CCT) and Techno-economic Assessment (TEA) is presented. CCT estimates the total energy required for the preparation of typical food items, based on average daily food intake as reported in National Sample Survey [2]. In order to make a fair comparison between SAPRB and CB, the similar dishes were prepared in parallel in both the stoves. The fuel and time required for cooking of various dishes were recorded individually. Results indicated that the cook-stove with PRB is a better choice for the replacement of conventional LPG stove due to its economic and environmental superiority. On daily basis, SAPRB resulted in average saving of 50 min cooking time and 29.46% fuel consumption. SAPRB has been found to significantly reduce the emissions of CO by 84.4% and NOx by 91.3%. TEA showed annual saving of Rs. 2025/- and the cumulative present worth of annual savings over the life of the PRB cook-stove has been found as Rs. 16572/-, which are much higher than the capital cost of the PRB cook-stove (Rs. 990/-). The calculated Internal Rate of Return (IRR) has been found to be 209.3% which is much higher than rate of return (8%). Similarly, the payback period has been found less than 6 month, which is very small considering the life of the cook-stove (10 years).

Published: July 2018

Abstract
In a building, lighting contributes 20-60% of the total consumption of electrical energy usage. To turn on and off the lamp with the switch manually sometimes people forget to turn it off when leaving the room. This resulted in the inefficiency of energy and cost, where the lamps work not based on need. To overcome this problem designed a lighting control system using internet of things concept so that the lights can be controlled and monitored remotely. This control system is designed using Arduino Mega 2560 as a microcontroller, relays as connectors and electric breakers voltage lamp and motion sensor as a switch that turns off the lights when there is no person in the room and indicator of the activity in the room. In addition, outdoor lights are lit in accordance with a predetermined schedule for more efficient power usage. With lighting control system is expected to reduce consumption of electrical energy usage so more efficient.

Power Transformer Interruption Analysis Based on Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA) using Artificial Neural Network
Authors: Muthi A , Sumarto S , Saputra W S 
Published: July 2018

Abstract
The power transformer is an important component in the power system, as it is directly related to the reliability of the electric power system operation. Therefore, the diagnosis of disturbances in power transformers is important for device safety as well as electrical system stability. Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA) is a disruptive diagnostic technique in power transformers that has been recognized effectively, because it provides knowledge of the state of the transformer based on the dissolved gas content in the transformer oil. The DGA test results can be represented by different methods such as Doernenburg ratio, Rogers ratio, IEC ratio, Duvals triangle, and key gases. The problem presented here is that two methods namely Doernenburg ratio and Rogers ratio, for the same data inputs give two different results from the error diagnosis to know the actual state of the transformer. In this paper, a combination method is proposed to solve the problem of conflict between Doernenburg ratio and Rogers ratio by utilizing multi-layer artificial neural network perceptron to localize and identify the error on the transformer and to select the most appropriate method.

ABSTRACTDiffuse gliomas often carry point mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH1mut), resulting in metabolic stress. Although IDHmut gliomas are difficult to culture in vitro, they thrive in the brain via diffuse infiltration, suggesting brain‐specific tumor–stroma interactions that can compensate for IDH‐1 deficits. To elucidate the metabolic adjustments in clinical IDHmut gliomas that contribute to their malignancy, we applied a recently developed method of targeted quantitative RNA next‐generation sequencing to 66 clinical gliomas and relevant orthotopic glioma xenografts, with and without the endogenous IDH‐1R132H mutation. Datasets were analyzed in R using Manhattan plots to calculate distance between expression profiles, Ward's method to perform unsupervised agglomerative clustering, and the Mann Whitney U test and Fisher's exact tests for supervised group analyses. The significance of transcriptome data was investigated by protein analysis, in situ enzymatic activity mapping, and in vivo magnetic resonance spectroscopy of orthotopic IDH1mut‐ and IDHwt‐glioma xenografts. Gene set enrichment analyses of clinical IDH1mut gliomas strongly suggest a role for catabolism of lactate and the neurotransmitter glutamate, whereas, in IDHwt gliomas, processing of glucose and glutamine are the predominant metabolic pathways. Further evidence of the differential metabolic activity in these cancers comes from in situ enzymatic mapping studies and preclinical in vivo magnetic resonance spectroscopy imaging. Our data support an evolutionary model in which IDHmut glioma cells exist in symbiosis with supportive neuronal cells and astrocytes as suppliers of glutamate and lactate, possibly explaining the diffuse nature of these cancers. The dependency on glutamate and lactate opens the way for novel approaches in the treatment of IDHmut gliomas.—Lenting, K., Khurshed, M., Peeters, T. H., van den Heuvel, C. N. A. M., van Lith, S. A.

Enhancement of Photodynamic Therapy for Bowen's Disease Using Plum-Blossom Needling to Augment Drug Delivery
Authors: Wu Yun , Wang Peiru , Zhang Linglin , Wang Bo , Wang Xiuli 
Published: July 2018

BACKGROUND
Bowen's disease (BD) is treated effectively with 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA)-photodynamic therapy (ALA-PDT). Plum-blossom needling (PBN) may enhance topical drug delivery.

OBJECTIVE
To compare the effects of and adverse reactions to PBN and ALA-PDT of BD with those associated with ALA-PDT alone.

MATERIALS AND METHODS
Forty-three lesions from 24 patients were randomly assigned to 2 groups. The PBN-ALA-PDT group underwent vertical skin tapping with PBN before applying 10% ALA cream and narrow-band light-emitting diode irradiation (λ = 633 ± 10 nm; 100–200 J/cm2). The ALA-PDT group received ALA cream and irradiation only.

RESULTS
At 6 weeks, the PBN-ALA-PDT and ALA-PDT groups achieved complete response (CR) rates of 77.78% (14/18 lesions) and 40% (7/20 lesions), respectively, (p < .05), and 2/18 and 10/20 lesions, respectively, achieved CRs after further treatment; 2.9 ± 0.8 sessions and 3.4 ± 0.7 sessions, respectively, were required for the lesions to achieve CRs. The PBN-ALA-PDT group required fewer treatment sessions and had higher protoporphyrin IX fluorescence levels (p < .05).

CONCLUSION
Plum-blossom needling may improve the efficacy of ALA-PDT by enhancing ALA delivery for BD treatment.
Assessing Cochlear Implant Performance in Older Adults Using a Single, Universal Outcome Measure Created With Imputation in HERMES
Authors: Sharma Rahul K. , Chen Stephanie Y. , Grisel Jedidiah , Golub Justin S. 
Published: July 2018

Objective:
In the era of big data, it is critical to aggregate results across different institutions. This is a major challenge for cochlear implant (CI) research given multiple, incompatible outcome measures. We use a large, national CI database to develop a formula to convert between the two most common measures: Consonant-Nucleus-Consonant word (CNCw) and Arizona Biomedical (AzBio). We then use this tool to analyze hearing outcomes in older adults with a single, universal outcome measure.

Study Design:
Analysis of a prospective, national cochlear implant database (HERMES).

Setting:
Multicentered, 32 US private practice and academic medical centers.

Patients:
CI subjects (n = 386, n = 430 ears; 10–102 years old; mean: 65).

Main Outcome Measure(s):
CNCw, AzBio.

Results:
Univariable linear regression equations were generated relating CNCw and AzBio scores at each time-point. Correlation (R2) was 0.71 (3 mo), 0.69 (6 mo), 0.63 (12 mo), and 0.56 (24 mo) (all p < 0.01). Using these equations, missing outcomes (CNCw, n = 83 or AZBio, n = 96) were imputed (calculated). The average absolute difference between observed and imputed CNCw (when both present) was 10.5% (95% CI = 9.8–11.3). On multivariable regression, age was not a significant predictor of CNCw (p = 0.38) after controlling for sex, hearing loss duration, use, and postoperative follow-up duration.

Conclusions:
We generated simple linear regression equations to calculate CNCw scores from AzBio, and vice versa, with good accuracy. This allowed one of the largest analyses of CI performance in older adults to date. We confirm that older age is not a significant predictor of performance when controlling for confounders.

Authors: Fudman David I. , Papamichael Konstantinos , Roemi Lilach , Rao Varun , Falchuk Kenneth R. , Leffler Daniel A. , Feuerstein Joseph D. 
Published: July 2018

Background and Aims:
Informed consent is a vital preprocedural step for endoscopy but there are substantial variations in its delivery. We therefore sought to assess a multifaceted intervention to improve the consent process.

Methods:
Gastroenterologists at a tertiary center were educated on the recommended components of informed consent. Following this, 3 cohorts of patients undergoing colonoscopy were surveyed before and after consent. In one cohort, the effect of optimized verbal consent alone was assessed. In the second and third groups, the effects of the addition of either a handout or a video describing colonoscopy and its risks were evaluated. The primary outcomes were the changes between preconsent and postconsent survey responses regarding confidence in understanding the procedure’s purpose, likelihood of adverse events, and levels of anxiety.

Results:
In total, 240 patients were included with 79 to 81 patients per group. There were no significant differences among the groups’ survey responses. Compared with patients receiving verbal consent alone, fewer patients in the handout and video groups increased their perceived risk of adverse events following consent, but this difference did not reach significance (P=0.08). Examining all groups together, anxiety levels changed significantly after consent (P=0.003), with 31% of patients reducing their anxiety level, 8% increasing it, and 62% having no change.

Conclusions:
The consent process appears to decrease patient anxiety about colonoscopy. When used in conjunction with a high-quality verbal consent, written or video educational adjuncts provided on the day of colonoscopy likely have no effect on patient perceptions.

Authors: Shan Mingyang , Gutman Roee , Dosa David , Gozalo Pedro L. , Ogarek Jessica A. , Kler Sarah , Thomas Kali S. 
Published: July 2018

Background:
Access to social services (eg, nutrition) can impact older adults’ health care utilization and health outcomes. However, data documenting the relationship between receiving services and objective measures of health care utilization remain limited.

Objectives:
To link Meals on Wheels (MOW) program data to Medicare claims to enable examination of clients’ health and health care utilization and to highlight the utility of this linked dataset.

Research Design:
Using probabilistic linking techniques, we matched MOW client data to Medicare enrollment and claims data. Descriptive information is presented on clients’ health and health care utilization before and after receiving services from MOW.

Subjects:
In total, 29,501 clients were from 13 MOW programs.

Measures:
Clients’ demographics, chronic conditions, and hospitalization, emergency department (ED), and nursing home (NH) utilization rates.

Results:
We obtained a one-to-one link for 25,279 clients. Among these, 14,019 were Medicare fee-for-service (FFS) beneficiaries and met inclusion criteria for additional analyses. MOW clients had high rates of chronic conditions (eg, almost 90% of FFS clients were diagnosed with hypertension, compared with 63% of FFS beneficiaries in their communities). In the 6 months before receiving MOW services, 31.6% of clients were hospitalized, 24.9% were admitted to the ED and 13% received care in a NH. In the 6 months after receiving meals, 24.2% were hospitalized, 19.3% were admitted to the ED, and 9.5% received care in a NH.

Conclusions:
Linking MOW data to Medicare claims has the potential to shed additional light on the relationships among social services, health status, health care use, and benefits to clients’ well-being.
