Authors: Zou Wei , Zou Xuecheng , Ren Daming , Zhang Kefeng , Liu Dongsheng , Ren Zhixiong 
Published: November 2018

A wideband low‐phase noise VCO is proposed for multi‐standard wireless communication system. An 8‐shaped high‐Q inductor is employed to enhance the performance of the VCO. The frequency pulling is reduced by using the 8‐shaped coil. Implemented in a 180 nm CMOS process, the VCO can provide a very wide tuning range of 65.4% from 2.49 to 4.91 GHz. A phase noise lower than −121.25 dBc/Hz is obtained at 1 MHz offset over the whole working band while the current consumed varies from 3.5 to 8.7 mA.
Early results of surgery for femoroacetabular impingement in patients with osteonecrosis of femoral head
Authors: Goyal Tarun 
Published: November 2018

Purpose: Femoroacetabular impingement and its surgical treatment have not been described before in osteonecrosis of femoral head. We present here outcomes of 15 patients with femoroacetabular impingement secondary to osteonecrosis of femoral head. This results from partial collapse of femoral head, particularly in the anterosuperior region, secondary to osteonecrosis. With subsequent remodelling, periphery of the femoral head flattens and osteophytes form in this area. All these patients were managed with open/arthroscopic osteochondroplasty of femoral head.
Methods: These patients were symptomatic for hip impingement. Cam deformity was studied using computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. In six patients open osteochondroplasty was carried out using surgical hip dislocation. In nine patients arthroscopic femoral head osteochondroplasty was done. All the patients were followed up for hip pain (VAS), Harris hip score (HHS), Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), and hip range of motion.
Results: A statistically significant improvement in the VAS for pain, HHS, and WOMAC score was noted. Average HHS improved from 71.3 (SD, 13) to 89.7 (SD, 14.5), p-value 0.0079. Average WOMAC improved from 73.6 (SD, 15.4) to 92.4 (SD, 16), p-value 0.0154. Impingement test became negative in all the patients. A significant improvement in hip ROM was noted. There was no conversion to total hip arthroplasty. All patients could sit on the floor cross-legged and squat.
Conclusion: Some patients with partial collapse of femoral head due to osteonecrosis present chiefly with symptoms of femoroacetabular impingement. They should be identified as osteochondroplasty gives successful results in these patients.

Introduction Aneurysms of the posterior cerebral artery (PCA) represent ∼ 1% of all intracranial aneurysms and usually present with subarachnoid hemorrhage.
Objective The aim of the present study is to describe the case of an adult man presenting a saccular aneurysm of the right PCA at the posterior half of the postcommunicating (P2P) segment, and to discuss the technical nuances of the approach and of the clipping process.
Case Report An investigation of a chronic headache in a 55-year-old man found a saccular aneurysm located just posterior to the most lateral portion of the right cerebral peduncle. A digital subtraction arteriography revealed a 7.8 mm × 5.6 mm × 4.8 mm posterior-medial projecting aneurysm of the right PCA at the P2P segment. A subtemporal approach was performed with partial aspiration of the right parahippocampal gyrus for a better exposure of the vascular structures. A proximal temporary occlusion of the PCA was performed at the anterior half of the postcommunicating P2A segment. The aneurysm was clipped with two semi-curved clips. The patient presented an uneventful recovery and was discharged from the hospital on the third postoperative day without any additional neurological deficits.
Conclusion Aneurysms of the PCA are an uncommon vascular disease that challenges the ability of the neurosurgeons due to their many anatomical nuances, to their vast number of perforators, and to the risk of bleeding. However, the operative management of aneurysms of the PCA is technically feasible, safe and effective when performed respecting microsurgical principles.
A pragmatic framework to note-taking in consecutive interpretation
Authors: Abuarrah Sufyan 
Published: November 2018

Abstract
This study provides a framework that immediately and efficiently guides the selection of the message components
for note-taking to successfully capture implicatures in consecutive interpretation. The framework revisits the Quantity,
Informativeness, and Manner (Q, I and M) heuristics of communication by Levinson (1995,
2000). Three interpretation principles are suggested (I-Q, I-I and I-M) (I for
interpretation). The principles are applied to the main parts of the message (vocabulary, connectives, and marked forms) following
Johns (2014). The I-Q principle advises interpreters to select the words that are most consistent with the speaker’s best
knowledge of the world and to communicate them as such; the I-I principle advises interpreters to simply and systematically notate
the connectives that exemplify a similar connection to the SM; the I-M principle advocates that interpreters should mark any
instances of marked forms such as over-lexicalization, prolixity, and repetition, and relay them with a similar level of
markedness to communicate a similar attitude of the SM speaker in the TL.
La ética del traductor
Authors: Ortiz García Javier 
Published: November 2018

Abstract
This article attempts to illuminate one of the most elusive aspects of the study of translation: the translator’s ethic. With the exception of Lawrence Venuti’s The Scandals of Translation (1998), few scholars have ventured in-depth studies of the subject. The study I propose is two-fold, with individual focuses on the theory and practice of translation, each analysed from three distinct perspectives: the translator’s visibility, culpability and conscience. This dual focus combined with its varying angles of analysis will lead to relatively well-defined conclusions. The theoretical element of this study is based upon scholarly opinion regarding existing constraints on the translator’s task (Lefevere; Bassnett; Lambert), and the direct influence of those constraints upon the literary translator’s process and final result. With the purpose of illustrating these theoretical suppositions, this essay analyses a recent translation (2013) of a political essay originally written in English and later published in translation in a Spanish newspaper. The detailed theoretical and practical analyses of this text will reveal the translator’s performance in the case of study as well as answer the following questions: Is the translator visible? If so, why did she choose to be? Is the translator culpable or innocent in the final results of the translation? Lastly, did the translator make the decisions in question consciously or unconsciously? The ultimate objective of this essay is to provide answers to these questions, thus not only clarifying the translator’s performance in this specific case but also demonstrating a translator’s ethic in more general terms. And, perhaps, it can also begin the elaboration of a much-needed ethical code for translators.

Published: November 2018

ABSTRACTPurpose. We aimed to determine the effect of speed‐induced changes in foot contact patterns on the vertical instantaneous loading rate (VILR). We hypothesized that transition runners, i.e. runners that shift towards a mid‐ (MF) or forefoot contact pattern (FF) when running speed increases, show smaller increases in VILR than non‐transition runners, i.e. runners that remain with a rearfoot contact pattern (RF).Methods. Fifty‐two male and female runners ran overground at 3.2, 4.1, 5.1 and 6.2 m s−1. Ground reaction forces, lower limb sagittal plane knee and ankle kinematics and plantar pressures were recorded. Multi‐level linear regression models were used to assess differences between transition and non‐transition runners.Results. Non‐transition runners experienced larger speed‐induced increases in VILR (48.6 ± 2.6 BW s−1 per m s−1) than transition runners (–1.4 ± 7.6 BW s−1 per m s−1). Transition runners showed higher VILRs and a more flat foot touch down at the same pre‐transition speed than non‐transition runners.Conclusion. When running speed increases, some runners transition towards more anterior foot contact patterns. This reduces or even eliminates the speed‐induced increase in VILR. This result is especially the case for those RF runners who already have relatively high VILRs and flat foot positioning at slower running speeds.

AbstractBackgroundThere is a pressing need to craft optimal public health messages promoting healthy feeding behaviors among parents. How these messages influence such feeding decisions are affected by multiple interactive factors including emotional states, message framing, and gender, but these factors have not been studied in the domain of parents’ feeding of their children.PurposeTo evaluate the role of message framing, emotional state, and parent gender on feeding choices that parents make for their children.MethodsIn 2016–2017, 190 parents (126 mothers) of 4- to 7-year-old children were randomly assigned to an anger or fear emotion induction and read either a gain- or loss-framed message about the importance of children’s fruit and vegetable (FV) consumption prior to choosing foods for their child from a virtual reality buffet.ResultsMothers in an angry state who received a gain-framed message chose relatively more FV for their child in the virtual buffet, F(3, 180) = 4.77, p = .027. However, fathers in this group did not feed more FV, but rather reported greater intention to improve future FV feeding, F(3, 180) = 4.91, p = .028.ConclusionsProviding gain-framed messages to parents, particularly mothers, in an anger state may be most effective for motivating healthy dietary choices for children.Clinical Trial informationclinicaltrials.gov NCT02622035
Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex Enables Updating of Established Memories
Authors: Kluen Lisa Marieke , Dandolo Lisa Catherine , Jocham Gerhard , Schwabe Lars 
Published: November 2018

Abstract
Updating established memories in light of new information is fundamental for memory to guide future behavior. However, little is known about the brain mechanisms by which existing memories can be updated. Here, we combined functional magnetic resonance imaging and multivariate representational similarity analysis to elucidate the neural mechanisms underlying the updating of consolidated memories. To this end, participants first learned face–city name pairs. Twenty-four hours later, while lying in the MRI scanner, participants were required to update some of these associations, but not others, and to encode entirely new pairs. Updating success was tested again 24 h later. Our results showed increased activity of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) specifically during the updating of existing associations that was significantly stronger than when simple retrieval or new encoding was required. The updating-related activity of the dlPFC and its functional connectivity with the hippocampus were directly linked to updating success. Furthermore, neural similarity for updated items was markedly higher in the dlPFC and this increase in dlPFC neural similarity distinguished individuals with high updating performance from those with low updating performance. Together, these findings suggest a key role of the dlPFC, presumably in interaction with the hippocampus, in the updating of established memories.

AbstractBackgroundEpidemiological data on paediatric acute kidney injury (AKI) in sub-Saharan Africa are limited and largely retrospective. We performed a prospective study of AKI among patients admitted through the emergency room.MethodsChildren admitted to the post-neonatal emergency room of the University College Hospital, Ibadan, Nigeria between February 2016 and January 2017 were studied. AKI was defined by Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes serum creatinine criteria. AKI ascertainment relied on serum creatinine measurements carried out in routine care by post-admission Day 1. We compared in-hospital mortality by post-admission Day 7 for patients with and without AKI (no-AKI).ResultsOf the 1344 children admitted to the emergency room, 331 were included in the study. AKI occurred in 112 patients (33.8%) with a median age of 3.1 years [interquartile range (IQR) 0.9–9.4] and was Stage 3 in 50.5% of the cases. The no-AKI group had a median age of 1.8 (IQR 0.7–5.8) years. The underlying diagnoses in patients with AKI were sepsis (33.0%), malaria (12.5%) and primary renal disorders (13.4%). Twenty-four of the patients with AKI underwent dialysis: haemodialysis in 20 and peritoneal dialysis in 4. By Day 7 of admission, 7 of 98 (7.1%) patients in the AKI group had died compared with 5 of 175 (2.9%) patients in the no-AKI group [odds ratio 2.6 (95% confidence interval 0.8–8.5)]. Outcome data were not available for 58 (17.5%) patients.ConclusionsAKI is common among paediatric emergency room admissions in a tertiary care hospital in sub-Saharan Africa. It is associated with high mortality risk that may be worse in settings without dialysis.
Older Adults’ Lure Discrimination Difficulties on the Mnemonic Similarity Task Are Significantly Correlated With Their Visual Perception

Published: November 2018

Abstract

Objectives
Pattern separation in memory encoding entails creating and storing distinct, detailed representations to facilitate storage and retrieval. The Mnemonic Similarity Task (MST; Stark, S. M., Yassa, M. A., Lacy, J. W., & Stark, C. E. [2013]. A task to assess behavioral pattern separation [BPS] in humans: Data from healthy aging and mild cognitive impairment. Neuropsychologia, 51, 2442–2449) has been used to argue that normal aging leads to pattern separation decline. We sought to replicate previous reports of age-related difficulty on this behavioral pattern separation estimate and to examine its neuropsychological correlates, specifically long-term memory function, executive function, and visual perception.

Methods
We administered an object version of the MST to 31 young adults and 38 older adults. It involved a single-probe recognition memory test in which some of the originally studied objects had been replaced with perceptually similar lures, and participants had to identify each as old, a lure, or new.

Results
Despite their corrected item recognition scores being superior to those of the young adults, the older adults had significantly greater difficulty than the young in discriminating the similar-looking lures from the original items. Interestingly, this lure discrimination difficulty was significantly correlated with visual perception rather than with long-term memory or executive function.

Discussion
These results suggest that although adult age differences on the MST are reliable, care should be taken to separate perceptual from memory discrimination difficulties as the reason.
Addition of mHealth (mobile health) for family planning support in Kenya: disparities in access to mobile phones and associations with contraceptive knowledge and use
Authors: Lee Seohyun , Begley Charles E , Morgan Robert , Chan Wenyaw , Kim Sun-Young 
Published: November 2018

Abstract

Background
Recently mobile health (mHealth) has been implemented in Kenya to support family planning. Our objectives were to investigate disparities in mobile phone ownership and to examine the associations between exposure to family planning messages through mHealth (stand-alone or combined with other channels such as public forums, informational materials, health workers, social media and political/religious/community leaders’ advocacy) and contraceptive knowledge and use.

Methods
Logistic and Poisson regression models were used to analyze the 2014 Kenya Demographic and Health Survey.

Results
Among 31 059 women, 86.7% had mobile phones and were more likely to have received higher education, have children ≤5 y of age and tended to be wealthier or married. Among 7397 women who were sexually active, owned a mobile phone and received family planning messages through at least one channel, 89.8% had no exposure to mHealth. mHealth alone was limited in improving contraceptive knowledge and use but led to intended outcomes when used together with four other channels compared with other channels only (knowledge: incidence rate ratio 1.084 [95% confidence interval {CI} 1.063–1.106]; use: odds ratio 1.429 [95% CI 1.026–1.989]).

Conclusions
Socio-economic disparities existed in mobile phone ownership, and mHealth alone did not improve contraceptive knowledge and use among Kenyan women. However, mHealth still has potential for family planning when used with existing channels.
Classifying relations in clinical narratives using segment graph convolutional and recurrent neural networks (Seg-GCRNs)
Authors: Li Yifu , Jin Ran , Luo Yuan 
Published: November 2018

Abstract
We propose to use segment graph convolutional and recurrent neural networks (Seg-GCRNs), which use only word embedding and sentence syntactic dependencies, to classify relations from clinical notes without manual feature engineering. In this study, the relations between 2 medical concepts are classified by simultaneously learning representations of text segments in the context of sentence syntactic dependency: preceding, concept1, middle, concept2, and succeeding segments. Seg-GCRN was systematically evaluated on the i2b2/VA relation classification challenge datasets. Experiments show that Seg-GCRN attains state-of-the-art micro-averaged F-measure for all 3 relation categories: 0.692 for classifying medical treatment–problem relations, 0.827 for medical test–problem relations, and 0.741 for medical problem–medical problem relations. Comparison with the previous state-of-the-art segment convolutional neural network (Seg-CNN) suggests that adding syntactic dependency information helps refine medical word embedding and improves concept relation classification without manual feature engineering. Seg-GCRN can be trained efficiently for the i2b2/VA dataset on a GPU platform.
Neuro-Oncology Clinical Debate: PCV or temozolomide in combination with radiation for newly diagnosed high-grade oligodendroglioma
Authors: Ruff Michael W , Buckner Jan C , Johnson Derek R , van den Bent Martin J , Geurts Marjolein 
Published: November 2018

Abstract
The treatment of newly diagnosed oligodendroglioma has been revolutionized in the past decade by multiple studies demonstrating that the addition of chemotherapy to radiation therapy results in a significant survival benefit. While the most direct evidence comes from clinical trials that utilized PCV, a chemotherapy regimen consisting of procarbazine, CCNU (lomustine), and vincristine, there is circumstantial evidence suggesting that the oral agent temozolomide (TMZ), which is both better tolerated and logistically simpler than PCV, may also be effective. The lack of currently available direct comparative data for PCV vs TMZ results in a diversity of practice. In this article, Ruff and Buckner argue for PCV as part of the standard-of-care regimen for newly diagnosed anaplastic oligodendroglioma, while Geurts and van den Bent defend the use of TMZ.

Abstract
We demonstrate the use of the AKARI FIS All-Sky Survey maps in the study of extragalactic objects. A quick but reliable estimate of the Galactic foreground is essential for extragalactic research in general. We explored the galactic foreground and calculated hydrogen column densities using AKARI FIS and other recent all-sky survey data, and compared our results to former estimates. Our AKARI-FIS-based foreground values were then used toward gamma-ray burst (GRB) sources as input for X-ray afterglow spectrum fitting. From those fits the intrinsic column densities at the GRB sources were derived. The high-angular-resolution AKARI-FIS-based Galactic foreground hydrogen column densities are statistically very similar, but for most of the tested directions somewhat lower than previous estimates based on low-resolution data. This is due to the low filling factor of high-density enhancements in all galactic latitudes. Accordingly, our AKARI-FIS-based new intrinsic hydrogen column densities are usually higher or similar compared to the values calculated based, e.g., on the low-resolution Leiden/Argentine/Bonn survey data and listed in the Leicester database. The variation, however, is typically smaller than the error of the estimate from the fits of the X-ray afterglow spectra. There are a number of directions where the improvement of the foreground estimates resulted in an overestimate of magnitude or higher increment of the derived intrinsic hydrogen column densities. We concluded that most of the GRBs with formerly extremely low intrinsic hydrogen column densities are in fact normal, but we confirmed that GRB050233 is indeed a non-enveloped long GRB.
