Abstract
Franchini, E, Cormack, S, and Takito, MY. Effects of high-intensity interval training on Olympic combat sports athletes' performance and physiological adaptation: A systematic review. J Strength Cond Res 33(1): 242–252, 2019—Combat sports represent around 25% of all Olympic medals disputed, and the success in these sports are determined by technical-tactical excellence and supported by physiological and psychological development. Although the training in combat sports is intermittent training by nature, some researchers have started to focus their attention on the effects of complementary high-intensity interval training (HIIT)-coupled standard combat sports-specific training on morphological, physiological, and performance adaptations. Thus, in this systematic review, we aimed to verify the effects of this type of training on these variables. A total of 117 articles in the electronic databases Pubmed, Scopus, and Web of Science were retrieved, and 9 studies remained in the present systematic review. A total of 228 athletes (138 judo athletes, 40 taekwondo athletes, 18 boxers, 17 karate athletes, and 15 wrestlers) were investigated in these 9 studies (5 with judo athletes, 1 with boxers, 1 with karate athletes, 1 with wrestlers, and 1 with taekwondo athletes). The HIIT protocols investigated did not generate any change in body fat percentage or body mass but generally resulted in increases in

Abstract
Askow, AT, Merrigan, JJ, Neddo, JM, Oliver, JM, Stone, JD, Jagim, AR, and Jones, MT. Effect of strength on velocity and power during back squat exercise in resistance-trained men and women. J Strength Cond Res 33(1): 1–7, 2019—The purpose was to examine load-velocity and load-power relationships of back squat in resistance-trained men (n = 20, 21.3 ± 1.4 years, 183.0 ± 8.0 cm, 82.6 ± 8.0 kg, 11.5 ± 5.0% total body fat) and women (n = 18; 20.0 ± 1.0 years; 166.5 ± 6.9 cm; 63.9 ± 7.9 kg, 20.3 ± 5.0% body fat). Body composition testing was performed followed by determination of back squat 1 repetition maximum (1RM). After at least 72 hours of recovery, subjects returned to the laboratory and completed 2 repetitions at each of 7 separate loads (30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, and 90% 1RM) in a random order. During each repetition, peak and average velocity and power were quantified using a commercially available linear position transducer. Men produced higher absolute peak and average power and velocity at all loads. When power output was normalized for body mass, significant differences remained. However, when normalizing for strength, no significant differences were observed between sexes. Furthermore, when subjects were subdivided into strong and weak groups, those above the median 1RM produced higher peak power, but only at loads greater than 60% 1RM. It was concluded that differences between men and women may be a result of strength rather than biological sex. Furthermore, training for maximal strength may be an appropriate method to augment maximal power output in those athletes who exhibit low levels of strength.
MANAGEMENT OF ENDOCRINE DISEASE: Hypoparathyroidism in pregnancy: review and evidence-based recommendations for management
Authors: Khan Aliya A , Clarke Bart , Rejnmark Lars , Brandi Maria Luisa 
Published: November 2018

Purpose
Review calcium homeostasis in pregnancy and provide evidence-based best practice recommendations for the management of hypoparathyroidism in pregnancy.

Methods
We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE and Cochrane databases from January 2000 to April 1, 2018. A total of 65 articles were included in the final review.

Conclusions
During pregnancy, calcitriol levels increase by two- to—three-fold resulting in enhanced intestinal calcium absorption. The renal filtered calcium load increases leading to hypercalciuria. PTHrP production by the placenta and breasts increases by three-fold, and this may lower the doses of calcium and calcitriol required during pregnancy in mothers with hypoparathyroidism. The literature however describes a wide variation in the required doses of calcium and calcitriol during pregnancy in hypoparathyroid mothers, with some women requiring higher doses of calcitriol, whereas others require lower doses. Close monitoring is necessary as hypercalcemia in the mother may suppress the fetal parathyroid gland development. Also hypocalcemia in the mother is harmful as it may result in secondary hyperparathyroidism in the fetus. This may be associated with demineralization of the fetal skeleton and the development of intrauterine fractures. Inadequate treatment of hypoparathyroidism may also result in uterine contractions and an increased risk of miscarriage. Treatment targets during pregnancy are to maintain a low normal serum calcium. Calcium, calcitriol and vitamin D supplements are safe during pregnancy. Close monitoring of the mother with a multidisciplinary team is advised for optimal care. If calcium homeostasis is well controlled during pregnancy, most women with hypoparathyroidism have an uncomplicated pregnancy and give birth to healthy babies.
Análisis crítico a las prácticas jurídicas de los estudiantes de derecho: El litigio estratégico como práctica alternativa e instrumento reivindicatorio de derechos sociales en Colombia
Authors: Porras-Moreno Jeisson Fabian 
Published: November 2018

The Law has been intruder in situations that have compromised its ethical dimension and its social function, this has led to different governmental and academic institutions evaluate the need to discuss and reform the pedagogical strategies in law schools with the final porpuse to mitigate the causes that give rise to these situations. Within these scenarios it has been concluded that one of the factors to work should be the students' own practices, which are mostly reflected in the legal office, since they are the appropriate scenario to reinforce ethical competences and visualization of it as a social science.
As a result of this, the objective of this paper is to critically analyze how the conception of education and legal practice is addressed to law students by the State and some universities in the country. On the other hand, after providing the mentioned analysis, the concept of strategic litigation will be presented as an alternative form of legal practice and as a proposal to respond to social needs in terms of the claim and application of rights to vulnerable communities from the academy. The above taking as reference the postulates of Latin American critical pedagogy framed within the social function of the lawyer and the university as a social institution.
This seeks to contribute to this discussion raised from the different social classes in reference to the law and its need to reform their pedagogical strategies, so the alternative of implementing the postulates of strategic litigation can provide tools that allow the student to perform in the area of knowledge with which you feel more affinity and work hand in hand with and for the community that surrounds you.

Use of Dynamic Data and a New Material-Balance Equation for Estimating Average Reservoir Pressure, Original Gas in Place, and Optimal Well Spacing in Shale Gas Reservoirs
Authors: Orozco Daniel , Aguilera Roberto 
Published: November 2018

Summary
The average reservoir pressure is a key parameter in material-balance calculations, but its determination is challenging when dealing with shales because of their low and ultralow permeabilities. This paper presents an easy-to-reproduce methodology for calculating the average reservoir pressure from flowing data, and its use in a new material-balance equation (MBE) that considers the simultaneous contribution of free, adsorbed, and dissolved gas.
The procedure developed in this paper uses a modified gas-compressibility factor (Z′) introduced in the new MBE. Because Z′ accounts for the combined effect of free, adsorbed, and dissolved gas, then total original gas in place (OGIP) can be determined from extrapolation of the MBE straight line to an average reservoir pressure equal to zero. Drainage area can be estimated on the basis of calculated OGIP and volumetric equations. As such, the methodology offers the potential to help improve well spacing in shale gas reservoirs in such a way that no stranded gas is left in the reservoir, or that excess wells are not drilled in the field. This can help to improve recoveries from shales by assisting in the determination of the optimal number of wells needed to drain a given play efficiently.
In conventional reservoirs, a well is shut in, and the average reservoir pressure is determined from the corresponding pressure-buildup test. But, for the case of unconventional shale gas reservoirs, shutting the wells in is unacceptable because of the long time it would require for estimating average reservoir pressure. The methodology developed in this paper for shale gas reservoirs circumvents this problem by using dynamic data.
Production data from multistage hydraulically fractured horizontal wells completed in a Canadian shale gas reservoir are used for testing the effectiveness of the new methodology. Comparison of typical well-spacing values vs. the drainage area calculated with the new methodology leads to the conclusion that, probably, only 40% of the gas is being drained efficiently.
The novelty of this work relies on the development of a methodology for calculating average reservoir pressure, OGIP, drainage area, and optimal well spacing in shale reservoirs through the combination of dynamic data and a new MBE that considers simultaneously the effects of free, adsorbed, and dissolved gas.
Improving Oil Recovery in the Wolfcamp Reservoir by Soaking/Flowback Production Schedule With Surfactant Additives
Authors: Alvarez J. O. , Tovar F. D. , Schechter D. S. 
Published: November 2018

Summary
Improving oil recovery from unconventional liquid reservoirs (ULRs) is a major challenge. We have demonstrated in previous laboratory studies the effect of surfactants on spontaneous imbibition and oil recovery by means of wettability alteration and interfacial-tension (IFT) reduction. Thereby, fracture-treatment performance and consequently oil recovery could be improved by adding surfactants to stimulation fluids when a soaking/flowback production schedule is applied. This study evaluates the ability of different groups of surfactants to improve oil recovery in ULRs by experimentally simulating the fracture treatment to represent surfactant imbibition in a ULR core fracture during soaking and flowback. In addition, we analyze the effects of wettability and IFT alteration as well as surfactant adsorption on the process. A coreflooding system was combined with the computed-tomography (CT) scanner to dynamically visualize the fluid movement as it penetrates the ULR sample in real time as well as compare oil recovery between surfactants and water without additive. Wolfcamp sidewall cores were longitudinally fractured and loaded into an aluminum/carbon-composite core holder. Two different types of surfactants—anionic and nonionic/cationic—as well as water without surfactants were injected through the fractures at reservoir conditions to evaluate their effectiveness in penetrating into the fractures and recovering oil from a ULR core. Then, a soaking/flowback production scheme was used to simulate fracture treatment and flowback. Changes in core wettability and IFT were determined by contact-angle (CA) and pendant-drop methods. Coreflooding results showed that surfactant solutions had higher imbibition and recovered more oil from liquid-rich core compared with water alone. The soaking/flowback production schedule aided by surfactants was able to recover up to 14% of the original oil in place (OOIP), whereas water alone recovered up to 2% of the OOIP. These observations qualitatively agree with wettability- and IFT-alteration measurements. Core wettability shifted from an original oil-wet to a final water-wet state, and surfactants reduced IFT to moderately low values. In addition, surfactants showed adsorption capacity following a Langmuir-type adsorption profile. The results showed that the addition of surfactants to completion fluids and the use of a soaking/flowback production scheme could improve oil recovery by wettability alteration and IFT reduction, maximizing well performance after stimulation. These findings provide an important understanding for designing completion-fluid treatments and flowback schedules for ULRs.
Elemental Composition of Swine Manure from 1997 to 2017: Changes Relevant to Environmental Consequences
Authors: Sheppard S. C. 
Published: November 2018

There have been revisions in the composition of swine diets in the last two decades that not only improved production profitability but also had potential environmental benefits. Among other changes, the use of phytase in feed has enabled lower total P concentrations. Nitrogen, specifically protein, concentrations are expected to be lower, and certain trace elements were also expected to change. In this study, analyses of 1195 swine slurry manure samples from various barn types in Manitoba, Canada, collected from 1997 to 2002 were compared with similar analyses from 2010 and 2017. Concentrations of P were significantly lower in 2017, from a median in sow barns of 28.0 g kg−1 dry weight (dw) in 1998 to 2002 to 20.6 g kg−1 dw in 2010 and 2017, and from a median in feeder finisher barns of 24.1 g kg−1 dw in 1998 to 2002 to 18.7 g kg−1 dw in 2010 and 2017. Total N levels did not change with time, but the fraction of manure N that was NH4 decreased. Zinc concentrations were consistently higher in nursery manures than in other swine manures and increased from a median of 2800 mg kg−1 dw in nursery barns in 1998 to 2002 to 5580 mg kg−1 dw in nursery barns in 2010 and 2017. Concentrations of most other trace elements decreased over this time period. With the exception of Zn from nursery barns, these temporal changes should lessen the potential for environmental consequences from swine manure application to land.Core Ideas
Hog manure has the potential to supply excess nutrients and trace elements to soils.
Feed practices have changed and concentrations of some elements may now be lower.
Manure samples (n = 1195) from production operations were analyzed over 20 yr.
Phosphorus concentration decreased up to 36%, concurrent with introduction of phytase.
Most trace elements also decreased, but Zn doubled in nursery manure over 20 yr.
Filtering of Period Infiltration in a Layered Vadose Zone: 1. Approximation of Damping and Time Lags
Authors: Dickinson Jesse E. , Ferré T.P.A. 
Published: November 2018

Core Ideas
We describe an approximation for filtering of periodic infiltration in layered soil.
Transitions in soil‐water properties between soil layers affect the filtering.
Errors are smaller in soils where changes in soil‐water properties are small.
Infiltration and downward percolation of water in the vadose zone are important processes that can define the availability of water resources. We present an approach that provides insight into how periodic infiltration forcings at the land surface filter in a layered vadose zone in terms of changes in the timing and magnitude of hydrologic responses. To represent geologically realistic systems, we used vertical sequences of one‐dimensional periodic solutions, where each solution represents a single soil in a layered profile. The overall approach is based on a linearized Richards equation and assumes that the effects on flow of continuous pressure head changes at soil interfaces are negligible. We evaluated the limit of these approximations by comparison with results from the numerical model HYDRUS‐1D, which uses the full Richards equation. We compared (i) the depth at which flux variations became steady, and (ii) the travel time of wetting fronts to reach a depth of 3 m. The solution was reasonably accurate (error less than a factor of 2) for infiltration cycles with periods from 30 to 365 d and for fluxes common in arid and semiarid environments (0–2 mm d−1). Lag times between a surface forcing and response at any depth were accurate (error less than a factor of 1.1). The approximation generally provided consistent estimates of the damping and time lag, such that it overestimated the depths where fluxes were steady and underestimated the time for a forcing to reach a specific depth.

Core Ideas
Studying the critical zone requires targeted research on water, energy, gas, solutes, and sediments.
The SSHCZO targets a 165‐km2 watershed on sedimentary rocks in the northeastern United States.
One SSHCZO subcatchment, Shale Hills, provides extraordinary data describing a shale CZ.
The Susquehanna Shale Hills Critical Zone Observatory (SSHCZO) was established to investigate the form, function, and dynamics of the critical zone developed on sedimentary rocks in the Appalachian Mountains in central Pennsylvania. When first established, the SSHCZO encompassed only the Shale Hills catchment, a 0.08‐km2 subcatchment within Shaver's Creek watershed. The SSHCZO has now grown to include 120 km2 of the Shaver's Creek watershed. With that growth, the science team designed a strategy to measure a parsimonious set of data to characterize the critical zone in such a large watershed. This parsimonious design includes three targeted subcatchments (including the original Shale Hills), observations along the main stem of Shaver's Creek, and broad topographic and geophysical observations. Here we describe the goals, the implementation of measurements, and the major findings of the SSHCZO by emphasizing measurements of the main stem of Shaver's Creek as well as the original Shale Hills subcatchment.

Identification and Characterization of a Novel Gene-encoded Antioxidant Peptide from Odorous Frog Skin
Authors: Cao Xiaoqing , Tang Jing , Fu Zhe , Feng Zhuo , Wang Siyuan , Yang Meifeng , Wu Chunyun , Wang Ying , Yang Xinwang 
Published: November 2018

Background:
Amphibian skin plays an essential role in protecting organisms from harmful
external factors such as UV radiation. How amphibians protect themselves from reactive oxygen
species following long-term sun exposure is an important and interesting question. Amphibian
skins possess a novel antioxidant system composed of various Antioxidant Peptides (AOPs), which
maintain redox homeostasis. However, only a few AOPs have been identified so far.

Methods:
Using combinational methods of peptidomics and genomics, we characterized a novel
gene-encoded antioxidant peptide (herein named OA-VI12) from Odorrana andersonii skin secretions,
which was produced by the post-translational processing of a 59-residue prepropeptide. The
amino acid sequence of the OA-V112 was 'VIPFLACRPLGL', with a molecular mass of 1298.6 Da
and no observed post-transcriptional modifications. Functional analysis demonstrated that OA-VI12
was capable of scavenging ABTS+, DPPH, NO and decreasing the Fe3+ production.

Results:
We determined that the C7 amino acid was responsible for ABTS+ and Fe3+ scavenging,
activities, the F4, C7, and P9 amino acids were crucial for DPPH scavenging activity, and the P9
amino acid was responsible for NO scavenging activity. Unlike several other amphibian peptides,
OA-VI12 did not accelerate wound healing in a full-thickness skin-wound mouse model and did not
demonstrate direct microbial killing. Here, we identified and named a novel gene-encoded antioxidant
peptide from the skin secretions of an odorous frog species, which may assist in the development
of potential antioxidant candidates.

Conclusion:
This study may help improve our understanding of the molecular basis of amphibians’
adaptation to environments experiencing long-term UV radiation.
