“Through Whom He Made the Ages”
Authors: Harriman K. R. 
Published: September 2019

AbstractThe default translation of the phrase δι’ οὗ καὶ ἐποίησεν τοὺς αἰῶνας in Heb 1:2c is spatial: “through whom he made the worlds/universe.” The typical explanation for why this temporal term should have a spatial meaning is that αἰών can have the sense of “the ages and everything in them,” so that it is roughly equivalent to the universe of space and time. In contrast, this paper demonstrates on the bases of lexical-historical, broad contextual, and immediate contextual evidence that a temporal translation (“ages” as in history) is preferable and that this temporal sense is more specifically salvation-historical in meaning.
L’oncial 0171, témoin-clef du développement du texte néotestamentaire avant le 3e s. : Un point sur Mt 10,17-32
Authors: Pinchard Laurent 
Published: September 2019

AbstractThis essay discusses the text of the 3rd c. uncial 0171. The uncial consists of three fragments, two pertaining to the text of Luke, and one pertaining to the text of Matthew (10: 17-32), which is the focus of the present study. Despite its extremely fragmentary nature, certain letters are sufficiently legible to permit a faithful reconstruction of the text. Although the “Western” character of the manuscript is well-established, some of the earlier studies of the textual variants seem to have overlooked or misinterpreted a number of key elements. Through a verse by verse reassessment of the textual variants in MS 0171, this study suggests some new explanations for their origins, and concludes that this is an important witness to the transmission of the text of the Greek New Testament.
Black Pentecostal Hermeneutics?
Authors: Harris Antipas L. 
Published: September 2019

Abstract
This essay advances hermeneutical insights for emerging black pentecostal scholars to consider. The salient question is, “What distinguishes black Pentecostalism?” This study revisits James H. Cone’s sources for black theology for insight into the role of blackness in shaping black Pentecostalism. On the one hand, the study dispels the myth that black Pentecostalism is inherently a spiritual alternative to the fight for social justice. On the other hand, it calls for critical dialogue between Cone’s sources for black theology and black Pentecostalism to advance scholarship on the formation of black pentecostal hermeneutics. This essay explains that blackness is more than a cultural and experiential reality. Blackness is a theological source that correlates with other sources in shaping black Pentecostalism. Blackness, moreover, legitimates black pentecostal proclivities for the integration of the faith, spirituality, and social advocacy. Theological blackness in Pentecostalism has historically distinguished black Pentecostalism from subsequent white Pentecostalism.

AbstractThe North China Plain (NCP) is becoming one of the most polluted areas characterized by a high frequency of haze pollution. However, the spatial and temporal evolutions of aerosol chemical compositions in such a highly polluted region are not well understood due to the lack of a long-term and comprehensive observation-based network. China’s National Aerosol Composition Monitoring Network (NACMON) has conducted comprehensive offline and online measurements of compositions and optical properties of airborne aerosols in order to systematically investigate the formation process, source apportionments of haze, and interactions between haze pollution and climate change. The objective of the observations is to provide information for policy makers to make strategies for the alleviation of haze occurrence. In this paper, we present instrumentations and methodologies as well as the preliminary results of the offline observations in NACMON stations over the NCP region. The implications and future perspectives of the network are also summarized. Benefiting from simultaneous observations from this network, we found that secondary aerosols were the dominant component in haze pollution. High anthropogenic emissions, low wind speed, and high relative humidity (RH) facilitated gas-to-particle transformation and resulted in high PM2.5 formation (PM2.5 is particulate matter that is smaller than 2.5 μm in diameter). Sulfate-dominant or nitrate-dominant aerosols during the haze period were driven by ambient RH. Moreover, the contributions of coal combustion and biomass burning to PM2.5 revealed downward trends, whereas secondary aerosols showed upward trends over the last decade. Thus, we highlighted that strict control of anthropogenic emissions of precursor gases, such as NOx, NH3, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), will be an important way to decrease PM2.5 pollution in the NCP region.
How Accurate Are Modern Atmospheric Reanalyses for the Data-Sparse Tibetan Plateau Region?
Authors: Bao Xinghua , Zhang Fuqing 
Published: September 2019

AbstractMore than 6000 independent radiosonde observations from three major Tibetan Plateau experiments during the warm seasons (May–August) of 1998, 2008, and 2015–16 are used to assess the quality of four leading modern atmospheric reanalysis products (CFSR/CFSv2, ERA-Interim, JRA-55, and MERRA-2), and the potential impact of satellite data changes on the quality of these reanalyses in the troposphere over this data-sparse region. Although these reanalyses can reproduce reasonably well the overall mean temperature, specific humidity, and horizontal wind profiles against the benchmark independent sounding observations, they have nonnegligible biases that can be potentially bigger than the analysis-simulated mean regional climate trends over this region. The mean biases and mean root-mean-square errors of winds, temperature, and specific humidity from almost all reanalyses are reduced from 1998 to the two later experiment periods. There are also considerable differences in almost all variables across different reanalysis products, though these differences also become smaller during the 2008 and 2015–16 experiments, in particular for the temperature fields. The enormous increase in the volume and quality of satellite observations assimilated into reanalysis systems is likely the primary reason for the improved quality of the reanalyses during the later field experiment periods. Besides differences in the forecast models and data assimilation methodology, the differences in performance between different reanalyses during different field experiment periods may also be contributed by differences in assimilated information (e.g., observation input sources, selected channels for a given satellite sensor, quality-control methods).

Abstract
Observational datasets of climatic variables are frequently composed of fragmentary time series covering different time spans and plagued with data gaps. Most statistical methods and environmental models, however, require serially complete data, so gap filling is a routine procedure. However, very often this preliminary stage is undertaken with no consideration of the potentially adverse effects that it can have on further analyses. In addition to numerical effects and trade-offs that are inherent to any imputation method, observational climatic datasets often exhibit temporal changes in the number of available records, which result in further spurious effects if the gap-filling process is sensitive to it. We examined the effect of data reconstruction in a large dataset of monthly temperature records spanning over several decades, during which substantial changes occurred in terms of data availability. We made a thorough analysis in terms of goodness of fit (mean error) and bias in the first two moments (mean and variance), in the extreme quantiles, and in long-term trend magnitude and significance. We show that gap filling may result in biases in the mean and the variance of the reconstructed series, and also in the magnitude and significance of temporal trends. Introduction of a two-step bias correction in the gap-filling process solved some of these problems, although it did not allow us to produce completely unbiased trend estimates. Using only one (the best) neighbor and performing a one-step bias correction, being a simpler approach, closely rivaled this method, although it had similar problems with trend estimates. A trade-off must be assumed between goodness of fit (error minimization) and variance bias.

Published: September 2019

Objective Migraine is a common disorder affecting more than 10% of the population. The prevalence of migraine among physicians and, in particular, among headache specialists is widely unknown as is the impact of suffering from migraine on the attitudes towards migraine and on treatment recommendations of physicians. We designed a survey among headache specialists and neurologists and compared the results to general pain specialists and general practitioners. Methods A standardized interview in randomly selected samples of these four groups of physicians was performed. The interview included data on the prevalence of migraine and other primary headache disorders in the physician groups, self-report on their own treatment, attitudes towards migraine, and treatment recommendations for migraine. The prevalence rates were also compared to an age- and sex-matched German general population sample. Results The lifetime prevalence of migraine was higher in headache specialists (53.0%) than in general neurologists (43.0%), pain specialists (21.7%), general practitioners (19.3%), and in the general age- and sex-matched population (16.8%). Cluster headache prevalence was high in neurologists (1.9%) and in headache specialists (1.3%); episodic tension-type headache prevalence was significantly lower in general practitioners (19.5%). One reason, among others, was that being a migraine (or cluster headache) patient more often prompted the sufferers to become a specialist in neurology. Physicians with migraine rated the biopsychosocial concept of lower importance for migraine than did physicians without migraine. The self-treatment of migraine in physicians differs from the treatment recommendations to the patients. For example, only 36.4% of the headache specialists with migraine take triptans whereas 94.4% recommend triptans to their patients. Conclusions We conclude that being a headache specialist or a neurologist is associated with an increased migraine or cluster headache prevalence. This personal history of migraine leads to a more somatic view of migraine as a disorder and to different treatment recommendations as compared to self-treatment.

Background: Avulsion fracture of the Achilles tendon is a less common but debilitating disorder. There is a paucity of literature on this problem. Purpose: To present a retrospective case series assessing the clinical outcomes of avulsion fracture of the Achilles tendon after a reattachment procedure and to identify potential factors predicting postoperative outcomes. Study Design: Case series; Level of evidence, 4. Methods: A consecutive case series of 35 patients with acute insertional rupture of the Achilles tendon who received a reattachment procedure between 2011 and 2017 were reviewed. All patients were measured and classified by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and surgical findings. Patient-reported outcomes were evaluated using the visual analog scale (VAS) for pain, American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) Ankle-Hindfoot Scale, Foot Function Index (FFI), Tegner score, and Ankle Activity Score (AAS). The range of motion and single-legged heel raise test were also conducted for both ankles. Results: Thirty-one out of 35 (88.57%) patients were followed up for an average of 43.65 months. The VAS pain score and AOFAS Ankle-Hindfoot score improved from 4.87 ± 1.61 preoperatively to 2.07 ± 1.57 postoperatively and from 58.32 ± 18.66 preoperatively to 87.32 ± 7.53 postoperatively, respectively (both P < .001). The mean FFI, AAS, and Tegner scores after the operation were 11.84 ± 1.62, 5.71 ± 2.18, and 4.61 ± 1.31, respectively. Compared with the intact ankle, the mean deficit in dorsiflexion in the involved ankle was 9.54°± 6.25° (range, 0.59°-23.70°; P < .001) and the mean deficit in plantarflexion in the involved ankle was 6.31°± 4.02° (range, 0.24°-14.92°; P < .001). Thirty patients could perform the single-legged heel raise on the operative leg. A larger body mass index was associated with worse postoperative AOFAS and FFI outcomes. Longer follow-up predicted statistically significantly better FFI scores. Better postoperative dorsiflexion was associated with better postoperative FFI, AAS, and Tegner scores, and a statistically significant interaction was found between the VAS score and plantarflexion deficit. Age, preoperative insertional tenderness, Haglund deformity, and MRI classification showed little association with postoperative outcomes. Conclusion: This study demonstrated that the reattachment procedure for acute avulsion fracture of the Achilles tendon can achieve firm fixation and promising outcomes.

Objective: To estimate the prevalence of depressive symptoms (depression thereafter) and to identify the sociodemographic and clinical correlates of depression in a sample of elderly patients treated in the primary care setting in Wuhan, China. Background: Primary care is an opportune setting for the management of late-life depression in China, but there have been no representative studies on the clinical epidemiology of depression in elderly Chinese primary care patients. Methods: In total, 752 elderly patients (≥ 65 years) were consecutively recruited from 13 primary care centers in Wuhan, China, and interviewed with a standardized questionnaire. Depression was assessed with the 15-item Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS-15). Results: Of the elderly Chinese primary care patients, 30.6% had depression (GDS-15 ≥ 5). Correlates of depression were an education level of primary school or less (odds ratio [OR]: 1.94, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.36-2.77, P < .001), poor financial status (OR: 2.19, 95% CI: 1.16-4.15, P = .016), lack of an exercise habit (OR: 1.40, 95% CI: 1.06-1.74, P = .023), 2 or more chronic medical conditions (OR: 1.90, 95% CI: 1.34-2.69, P < .001), and loneliness (OR: 3.53, 95% CI: 2.46-5.08, P < .001). Conclusions: Depression is prevalent among elderly Chinese primary care patients, indicating that elderly patients treated in primary care have a high level of need for mental health services in China. There is an urgent need to integrate mental health services into primary health care.

Published: September 2019

Objective: No study has investigated the frequency and risk factors for deficit schizophrenia (DS) in Chinese Han population. We investigated the prevalence of DS among community-dwelling older Chinese patients with schizophrenia and examined the sociodemographic and clinical correlates of DS in this population. Methods: A total of 326 community-dwelling older patients with schizophrenia were recruited in this cross-sectional study. Deficit schizophrenia was confirmed using the Chinese version of the Schedule for the Deficit Syndrome. Data pertaining to sociodemographic and clinical characteristics were collected. Psychopathology was assessed using the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS). Results: The prevalence of DS in the study population was 26.7% (31.2% among male patients and 21.6% among female patients with schizophrenia). Patients with DS had significantly higher current smoking rate, hospitalizations, PANSS negative score, PANSS total score, and had earlier age at onset than patients with non-deficit schizophrenia (N-DS). The N-DS patients had higher PANSS positive scores and a greater proportion of married patients. Multiple logistic regression analysis indicated that negative PANSS score (odds ratio [OR] = 1.10, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.04-1.16, P < .001), male sex (OR = 1.71, 95% CI = 1.53-1.91, P = .037), age at onset (OR = 0.88, 95% CI = 0.82-0.94, P = .035), and current smoking (OR = 1.37, 95% CI = 1.15-1.63, P = .041) were independently associated with DS. Conclusion: Deficit schizophrenia is relatively common among older community-dwelling Chinese patients with schizophrenia. High negative symptom scores, male sex, early onset, and smoking were independent correlates for DS.

Published: September 2019

Background: This study investigates the effect of body mass index (BMI) on complications and satisfaction in patients who underwent thyroidectomy and lateral neck dissection. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 386 patients with papillary thyroid cancer who underwent total thyroidectomy and lateral neck dissection between January 2013 and December 2016. We compared variables including population characteristics, subjective satisfaction, and complications in nonobese (BMI < 28.0 kg/m2) and obese (BMI ≥ 28.0 kg/m2) patients. Results: Obesity was associated with an increased risk of postoperative hemorrhage (POH) ( P = .014), accessory nerve injury ( P < .001), operative time ( P < .001) and infection ( P = .013). However, obese patients had higher subjective satisfaction and Vancouver Scar Scale (VSS) scores ( P < .05). Conclusions: Obesity was associated with increased risk of POH, injury of the SAN, and infection. Interestingly, we found that obese patients had higher subjective satisfaction and VSS scores.

Published: September 2019

Background Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) in children has a distinctive set of clinicopathologic features and molecular signature compared to their adult counterparts. The recent recommendation to reclassify encapsulated follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (EFVPTC) without invasion as noninvasive follicular thyroid neoplasm with papillary-like nuclear features (NIFTP) is based on evidence derived almost exclusively from studies in adults. Clinicopathologic studies restricted to pediatric NIFTP are limited. Methods We retrospectively analyzed all pediatric PTC and NIFTP diagnosed and treated in our institution from 1999 to 2016 (n = 31). Results Using recently published consensus diagnostic criteria, we identified 3 NIFTP and 2 infiltrative follicular variants of papillary thyroid carcinoma (FVPTC) among 31 cases. Two of the NIFTP cases were initially diagnosed as EFVPTC. All 3 patients with NIFTP had unifocal tumors of lower American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) classification (T2 or lower) and were free of lymph node or distant metastasis. Total (n = 1) or completion (n = 2) thyroidectomy was performed in all cases, and only 1 NIFTP patient received subsequent radioablative therapy. No residual or recurrent disease has been observed during follow-up (15–138 months) in patients with NIFTP. Conclusions Our experience with NIFTP in children is similar to outcomes reported in adult studies, suggesting that pediatric NIFTP behave indolently as evidenced by the absence of local recurrence in our cohort.

Published: September 2019

Objectives The study purpose was to examine perspectives of women with newly diagnosed breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL) regarding their quality of life over seven years. Method Data were collected over seven years using the Lymphedema and Breast Cancer Questionnaire (LBCQ). Participants with BCRL answered open-ended questions corresponding to changes in mood and lifestyle from post-op through annual interviews and surveys. Self-reported data from 97 participants with BCRL were analyzed using in vivo coding and template-style content analysis to elicit the impact of BCRL on quality of life domains. Results Data saturation was achieved as participants neared 30 to 36 months post- breast cancer diagnosis. Three major themes were identified related to BCRL’s impact on: physical function; daily living and social function; and psychological function. Discussion Findings suggest that BCRL impacts quality of life not only soon after diagnosis, but also throughout survivorship years. Healthcare providers should develop programs to enhance quality of life for survivors with BCRL.
