Published: May 2018

Background Recovery from anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) requires an intensive course of postoperative rehabilitation. Although guidelines outlining evidence-based rehabilitation recommendations have been published, actual practice patterns of physical therapists are unknown. Objectives To analyze the current landscape of clinical practice as it pertains to rehabilitation progression and the use of time and objective criteria in rehabilitation following ACLR. Methods In this cross-sectional study, an online survey was distributed to members of the Academy of Orthopaedic Physical Therapy, the American Academy of Sports Physical Therapy, and the Private Practice Section of the American Physical Therapy Association between January and March 2017. Results The study analyzed a sample of 1074 responses. Supervised physical therapy was reported to last 5 months or less by 56% of survey respondents. The most frequent time frames for activity progression were 3 to 4 months (58%) for jogging, 4 to 5 months (50%) for modified sports activity, and 9 to 12 months (40%) for unrestricted sports participation. More than 80% of respondents reported using strength and functional measures during rehabilitation. Of those physical therapists who assessed strength, 56% used manual muscle testing as their only means of strength testing. Single-limb hop testing (89%) was the most frequently reported measure used to allow patients to begin modified sports activity following ACLR. Performance criteria for strength and functional tests varied significantly across all phases of rehabilitation. The 45% of respondents who reported using patient-reported outcome measures indicated that just under 10% of those measures involved fear or athletic confidence scales. Conclusion Considerable variation in practice exists among American Physical Therapy Association members regarding rehabilitation following ACLR. This variability in practice may contribute to suboptimal outcomes and confusion among practitioners and patients. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2018;48(10):801–811.

Evaluation of aggregates from conglomerate beds of the Upper Siwalik Subgroup, Chure Khola area, Central Nepal Sub-Himalaya
Authors: Pradhananga Sunil Shanker , Tamrakar Naresh Kazi 
Published: May 2018

Durability of infrastructures demands detail study of rocks which helps to give knowledge on physical properties, strength and durability of rocks, and their usefulness as construction materials. A wide belt of conglomerates of the Upper Siwalik Subgroup (Pliocene to Lower Pleistocene) extends in the Chure Hills of Central Nepal. These conglomerates are mostly loosely consolidated, matrix-supported and containing clast of diverse composition. Because of haphazard mining of the riverbeds of the Chure and Dudhaura Kholas, the present study was carried out for evaluation of clasts from the conglomerates distributed at the hillslopes of the Chure Khola, as alternative sources mainly for unbound pavement. Stiffness and durability of clasts from conglomerates was tested for grading, shape indices, Water Absorption Value (WAV), specific gravity, Aggregate Impact Value (AIV), Aggregate Crushing Value (ACV), Los Angles Abrasion Value (LAV), Sodium Sulphate Soundness Value (SSSV) and Slake Durability Index (SDI). The suitability of clast from conglomerates for unbound pavement was finally evaluated for the sample for intended uses following specifications of British standard, ASTM standard and Nepal standard.The clasts of conglomerate beds are composed of quartzite, sandstone, siltstone, schist, marble, phyllite, granite, limestone and amphibolite. Among all those clasts, quartzite is dominant in all samples. The texture of clast is smooth and rough surface. Flakiness index (FI) and Elongation index (EI) indicate that aggregates possess only some flat and elongate grains and are good in workability. WAV lies below 3% and the dry density (2260kg/m3–2750kg/m3) of aggregates, coincides with the standard average value of ASTM Standard, British Standard and Nepal Standard. The ACV of the sample lies in the range 17% to 26% within the limit of ASTM standard, BS and Nepal Standard. The Los Angles Value of the sample lies in the range 34% to 44.60% and therefore, they can be used for base course and sub base course. SSSV for five cycles was calculated to be less than 10%. SDI after second cycle is very high (94.29%) and samples are durable in nature according to ASTM D4644- 87 Standard. All parameters show that the sample of the clast of conglomerate deposited along the Chure Khola are durable meeting all ASTM, British and Nepal Standard and thus are suitable unbound pavement.Bulletin of the Department of Geology, vol. 19, 2016, pp. 1–14

Published: May 2018

This article aims at: (i) describing condition of Indonesian”s natio­nalism, (ii) analysing the socio-political effects of religious texts toward nationalism in Indonesia, and (iii) proposing strategic alternatives for empowering the future Indonesian’s nationalism. Through an inductive-deductive approach, the article highlights that, unavoidably, globalization has shaped any condusive situation for the growth and development of universal and transnational ideologies. Globalisation of religious text—liberal, radical, and moderate-- has been capable of breeding transna­tionalism ideologies in Indonesia. For the sake of stopping the growth of such destructive ideologies, the use of socio-cultural approach is neces­sarily needed. Which is carried out by (i) controlling and censoring ade­quatrely toward religious texts, and (ii) revitalilizing the constructive religious text legacies, (iii) intensifying and extensifying committment and responsibility of the Goverment, private institution, and society at large to manage any cultural legacies of Nusantara.Key words: globalization, nationalism, religious texts, transnational ideologies, sociocuktural approach.Artikel ini bertujuan: (i) menggambarkan kondisi nasionalisme Indonesia, (ii) menganalisis pengaruh teks keagamaan transnasional terha­dap nasio­na­lis­me Indonesia, dan (iii) mengusulkan strategi penguat­an nasiona­lis­me Indonesia melalui pendekatan sosial budaya. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan induktif-deduktif, artikel menggaris-bawahi bahwa globalisasi berdampak kuat terjadinya pertumbuhan dan perkembangan gerakan trans­nasional. Globalisasi teks keagamaan—baik teks liberal, teks radikal mau­pun teks moderat—telah menyuburkan pertumbuhan gerakan transna­sional di Indonesia. Untuk itu, pendekatan sosial budaya menjadi salah satu salah satu cara efektif untuk menang­hambat perkembangan globalisasi faham transnasional, diantara­nya mela­lui: (i) penyaringan, pengontrolan, dan pengawasan terhadap teks keaga­ma­an (ii) revitalisasi khazanah teks-teks keagamaan yang konstruktif bagi nasionalisme Indonesia & NKRI, dan (iii) intensifikasi dan ekstensifikasi program, serta (iv) penguatan komit­men semua pihak—Pemerintah, Peme­rintah Daerah, dan masyarakat.Kata kunci: globalisasi, nasionalisme, teks keagamaan, faham trans­na­sional, pendekatan sosial-budaya.

Published: May 2018

Introduction : Le nombre de consultations des personnes âgées aux urgences est en constante augmentation. Cette étude avait pour but d’évaluer les caractéristiques des patients centenaires, consultants dans un service d’accueil d’urgences et leur devenir.
Patients et méthode : Etude monocentrique, rétrospective, sur la période de janvier 2012 à mars 2015, incluant tous les centenaires consultants aux urgences d’un hôpital universitaire. Les données ont été comparées à une première période d’étude 10 ans auparavant (2002-2005) (travail déjà publié).
Résultats : Durant cette période, 21 550 (14%) des patients ayant consulté avaient plus de 75 ans, et 129 (<1%) patients avaient 100 ans et plus. Sept dossiers incomplets ont été exclus, et un total de 122 dossiers a donc été retenu pour l’étude. L’âge moyen des patients était de 102 +/- 1,4 ans. En 2002-2005, 81% des patients centenaires ont été adressés au SAU après un premier contact de leur médecin traitant ou du médecin de garde, contre 56% en 2012-2015 (p<0,001). Les principaux motifs de consultation aux urgences restaient les chutes (42% vs. 39%, p=0,66), suivies des symptômes respiratoires (22% vs. 21%, p=0,88). La durée moyenne de séjour a diminué de 10 jours à 7 jours, entre les 2 périodes. Le taux d’hospitalisation restait stable (57% vs. 67%, p=0,06), ainsi que la mortalité hospitalière (24% sur les deux périodes, p=0,95).
Conclusion : Cette étude souligne la spécificité des besoins des patients centenaires aux urgences, en matière de prise en charge non programmée.
The Monsanto Papers: Poisoning the scientific well
Authors: McHenry Leemon B. 
Published: May 2018

OBJECTIVE: Examination of de-classified Monsanto documents from litigation in order to expose the impact of the company’s efforts to influence the reporting of scientific studies related to the safety of the herbicide, glyphosate. METHODS: A set of 141 recently de-classified documents, made public during the course of pending toxic tort litigation, In Re Roundup Products Liability Litigation were examined. RESULTS: The documents reveal Monsanto-sponsored ghostwriting of articles published in toxicology journals and the lay media, interference in the peer review process, behind-the-scenes influence on retraction and the creation of a so-called academic website as a front for the defense of Monsanto products. CONCLUSION: The use of third-party academics in the corporate defense of glyhphosate reveals that this practice extends beyond the corruption of medicine and persists in spite of efforts to enforce transparency in industry manipulation.
Calciprotein Particle Formation in Peritoneal Dialysis Effluent is Dependent on Dialysate Calcium Concentration
Authors: Cai Michael M.X. , Smith Edward R. , Kent Annette , Huang Louis , Hewitson Timothy D. , McMahon Lawrence P. , Holt Stephen G. 
Published: May 2018

Background The accumulation of fetuin-A-containing calciprotein particles (CPP) in the serum of patients with renal disease and those with chronic inflammation may be involved in driving sterile inflammation and extraosseous mineral deposition. We previously showed that both fetuin-A and CPP were present in the peritoneal dialysis (PD) effluent of stable PD patients. It is unknown whether different PD fluids might affect the formation of CPP in vivo. Method Peritoneal effluent from 12 patients was collected after a 6-hour dwell with 7 different commercial PD fluids. Calciprotein particles and inflammatory cytokines were measured by flow cytometry. Results High inter-subject variability in CPP concentration was observed. Peritoneal dialysis fluids containing 1.75 mmol/L calcium were associated with enhanced formation of CPP in vivo, compared with fluids containing 1.25 mmol/L calcium. Osmotic agent, fluid pH, and glucose concentration did not affect CPP formation. Peritoneal dialysis effluent CPP levels were not associated with changes in inflammatory cytokines. Conclusion High calcium-containing PD fluids favor intraperitoneal CPP formation. This finding may have relevance for future PD fluid design.

Abstract
We present the first maps of cyanoacetylene isotopologues in Titan’s atmosphere, including H13CCCN and HCCC15N, detected in the 0.9 mm band using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter array (ALMA) around the time of Titan’s (southern winter) solstice in 2017 May. The first high-resolution map of HC3N in its v
7 = 1 vibrationally excited state is also presented, revealing a unique snapshot of the global HC3N distribution, free from the strong optical depth effects that adversely impact the ground-state (v = 0) map. The HC3N emission is found to be strongly enhanced over Titan’s south pole (by a factor of 5.7 compared to the north pole), consistent with rapid photochemical loss of HC3N from the summer hemisphere combined with production and transport to the winter pole since the 2015 April ALMA observations. The H13CCCN/HCCC15N flux ratio is derived at the southern HC3N peak, and implies an HC3N/HCCC15N ratio of 67 ± 14. This represents a significant enrichment in 15N compared with Titan’s main molecular nitrogen reservoir, which has a 14N/15N ratio of 167, and confirms the importance of photochemistry in determining the nitrogen isotopic ratio in Titan’s organic inventory.

Abstract
In this Letter, we make use of sophisticated 3D numerical simulations to assess the extent of atmospheric ion and photochemical losses from Mars over time. We demonstrate that the atmospheric ion escape rates were significantly higher (by more than two orders of magnitude) in the past at ∼4 Ga compared to the present-day value owing to the stronger solar wind and higher ultraviolet fluxes from the young Sun. We found that the photochemical loss of atomic hot oxygen dominates over the total ion loss at the current epoch, while the atmospheric ion loss is likely much more important at ancient times. We briefly discuss the ensuing implications of high atmospheric ion escape rates in the context of ancient Mars, and exoplanets with similar atmospheric compositions around young solar-type stars and M-dwarfs.
Dating the Tidal Disruption of Globular Clusters with GAIA Data on Their Stellar Streams
Authors: Bose Sownak , Ginsburg Idan , Loeb Abraham 
Published: May 2018

Abstract
The Gaia mission promises to deliver precision astrometry at an unprecedented level, heralding a new era for discerning the kinematic and spatial coordinates of stars in our Galaxy. Here, we present a new technique for estimating the age of tidally disrupted globular cluster streams using the proper motions and parallaxes of tracer stars. We evolve the collisional dynamics of globular clusters within the evolving potential of a Milky Way-like halo extracted from a cosmological ΛCDM simulation and analyze the resultant streams as they would be observed by Gaia. The simulations sample a variety of globular cluster orbits, and account for stellar evolution and the gravitational influence of the disk of the Milky Way. We show that a characteristic timescale, obtained from the dispersion of the proper motions and parallaxes of stars within the stream, is a good indicator for the time elapsed since the stream has been freely expanding away due to the tidal disruption of the globular cluster. This timescale, in turn, places a lower limit on the age of the cluster. The age can be deduced from astrometry using a modest number of stars, with the error on this estimate depending on the proximity of the stream and the number of tracer stars used.
RIG-I Enhances Interferon-α Response by Promoting Antiviral Protein Expression in Patients with Chronic Hepatitis B
Authors: Wu Shu , Lin Jinpiao , Fu Ya , Ou Qishui 
Published: May 2018

Background Interferon (IFN)-α is widely used for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infection due to the high rate of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) seroconversion. However, IFN-α treatment has a number of side effects. Thus, identification of molecular biomarkers to predict IFN-α therapeutic effect would be useful in the clinic. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of retinoic acid-inducible gene-I (RIG-I) in prediction of IFN-α curative effect of CHB patients. Methods A total of 65 CHB patients treated with pegylated IFN-α weekly for 48 weeks were enrolled. Realtime PCR was performed for detection of RIG-I and IFN-stimulated gene (ISG) expression. In vitro, the HepG2 cells were transfected with siRNA and levels of RIG-I and anti-HBV proteins were detected by western blot. The P-values were calculated in SPSS 18.0. The statistical significance level was accepted as P<0.05. Results In this study, we found RIG-I expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells was higher in responder than non-responder CHB patients treated with IFN-α therapy. In HBV-transfected HepG2 and Huh7 cells, RIG-I enhanced IFN-α response by promoting anti-HBV protein expression such as double-stranded RNA-dependent protein kinase (PKR), oligoadenylate synthetase (OAS), adenosine deaminase (ADAR1) and Mx protein. Knocking down of RIG-I could downregulate the expression of these proteins. Inhibited RIG-I expression by RIG-I siRNA deceased STAT1 phosphorylation. Conclusions Our results revealed RIG-I enhanced IFN-α response by promoting antiviral protein expression via the STAT1 pathway. RIG-I may be a new predictive factor for prediction of IFN-α efficacy in CHB patients.

Published: May 2018

Until now, a complete checklist of Sphagnum-dwelling testate amoebae in Bulgaria has never been published. Records for species diversity and distribution in the country were scattered in many faunistic and ecological publications. The aim of the present study is to summarise all data for the species distribution at the level of country by reviewing the existing literature and by additional data obtained in our research over the past two years.
The checklist comprises 171 species, classified into 43 genera, 20 families, three orders, three classes and three phyla. We present data for 16 new Sphagnum-dwelling testate amoebae in Bulgaria and new distribution data for 134 species. Of them, 99 species are recorded from Stara Planina Mt., for which there was no available data to date. Additionally are recorded 69 new species for Pirin Mt., 21 for Vitosha Mt. and 18 for Rila Mt. Thirty six species are synonymised according to the latest taxonomic changes. Two misidentified taxa (Euglypha brachiata Penard, 1902 and Difflugia compressa var. africana Gauthier-Lièvre et Thomas, 1958) are transferred into valid species E. acanthophora and Zivkovicia compressa, respectively. Three of the recorded species have not been included in the checklist, because they are currently not refering to testate amoebae (Cochliopodium bilimbosum (Auerbach 1856) and Cochliopodium echinatum Korotneef, 1879 are gymnamoebae (naked amoebae) and Microgromia elegantula (Penard 1904) = Paralieberkuehnia elegantula (Penard 1904) is freshwater foraminifera).
