Published: March 2017

ABSTRACT
Objective: Assessing effectiveness of audiovisual (AV) distraction with/without video eyewear and computerized delivery system-intrasulcular (CDS-IS) for local anesthesia during placement of stainless steel crowns for the management of pathological tooth grinding in children with Down syndrome. Materials and Methods: This clinical study includes 22 children (13 boys and 9 girls), with mean age being 7.1 years. The study involved three sessions 1-week apart. During Session I, dental prophylaxis to the upper jaw was done while watching a movie projected on the ceiling without video eyewear whereas prophylaxis for the lower jaw and impressions of both jaws were taken while watching another movie using eyewear projection. After 1 week, during Session II/III, children had their upper and lower second primary molars which were prepared and steel crowns inserted, respectively, while watching movies which were projected using video eyewear under the effect of CDS-IS local anesthesia. Changes in pulse oximeter and heart rate were recorded every 5 min. Independent sample t-test was used to assess significance of changes during each visit. Results: A statistically significant difference (P < 0.03) was observed in mean pulse rate between dental prophylaxis without video eyewear and during dental prophylaxis and dental impression taken while children were distracted using AV distracter with video eyewear. We observed an increase in mean pulse rate during tooth preparation use dental drills, but this does not lead to disruptive behavior as children were being distracted by AV distracter with video eyewear. Conclusion: Routine psychological (Tell-Show-Do) intervention along with visual distraction using video eyewear and use of CDS-IS system for anesthetic delivery is recommended as an effective behavior management technique for children with Down syndrome during invasive dental treatment.
Processos comportamentais na perspectiva da LSF: uma investigação inicial
Authors: Scotta Cabral Sara Regina , Barbara Leila 
Published: March 2017

Os processos comportamentais já eram apontados por Halliday, em sua obra de 1994, como os menos distintos de todos os seis processos, já que não apresentam características que os definam claramente. Em vista disso, a bibliografia acerca desse tipo de processo é consideravelmente menor que aquela que contempla os outros cinco processos. Tendo em vista a escassez de textos que abordem tal temática, sentiu-se a necessidade de se fazer uma investigação acerca das manifestações físicas e psicológicas de Comportantes em situações de enfermidade. Inicialmente foi selecionado um conjunto de dez entrevistas, disponíveis on line, com pessoas portadoras de câncer. Com o recurso da Linguística de Corpus (SARDINHA, 2004), fez-se um mapeamento dos processos comportamentais empregados pelos entrevistados em seus depoimentos. Os resultados apontam para o uso de um maior número de processos próximos dos mentais, seguidos de processos fisiológicos e de processos fisiológicos que manifestam estados de consciência, quase todos de valor negativo.

Published: March 2017

Background
The promising postsurgical weight loss and remission of type 2 diabetes (T2D) from bariatric surgery can be attributed to modified eating physiology after surgical procedures. We sought to investigate the changes in the parameters of consumption behaviors and appetite sensations induced by a mixed meal tolerance test, and to correlate these alterations with age, body mass index, C-peptide levels, and duration of T2D 1 year after bariatric surgery.

Methods
A total of 16 obese patients with T2D who underwent mini-gastric bypass (GB) and 16 patients who underwent sleeve gastrectomy (SG) were enrolled in this study and evaluated using a mixed meal tolerance test one year after surgery. A visual analogue scale was used for scoring appetite sensation at different time points. The area under the curve (AUC) and the incremental or decremental AUC (ΔAUC) were compared between the two groups.

Results
One year after surgery, a decreasing trend in the consumption time was observed in the GB group compared to the SG group, while the duration of T2D before surgery was negatively correlated with the post-operative consumed time in those after GB. Patients who underwent GB had significantly higher fasting scores for fullness and desire to eat, higher AUC0′–180′ of scores for desire to eat, as well as more effective post-meal suppression of hunger and desire to eat compared with those undergoing SG one year after surgery. Post-operative C-peptide levels were negatively correlated with ΔAUC0′–180′ for hunger and ΔAUC0′–180′ for desire to eat in the GB group, while negatively correlated with ΔAUC0′–180′ for fullness in the SG group.

Discussion
Patients with T2D after either GB or SG exhibit distinct nutrient-induced consumption behaviors and appetite sensations post-operatively, which may account for the differential effects on weight loss and glycemic control after different surgery.
Insect herbivores increase mortality and reduce tree seedling growth of some species in temperate forest canopy gaps
Authors: Lemoine Nathan P. , Burkepile Deron E. , Parker John D. 
Published: March 2017

Insect herbivores help maintain forest diversity through selective predation on seedlings of vulnerable tree species. Although the role of natural enemies has been well-studied in tropical systems, relatively few studies have experimentally manipulated insect abundance in temperate forests and tracked impacts over multiple years. We conducted a three-year experiment (2012–2014) deterring insect herbivores from seedlings in new treefall gaps in deciduous hardwood forests in Maryland. During this study, we tracked recruitment of all tree seedlings, as well as survivorship and growth of 889 individual seedlings from five tree species:Acer rubrum,Fagus grandifolia,Fraxinusspp.,Liriodendron tulipifera, andLiquidambar styraciflua. Insect herbivores had little effect on recruitment of any tree species, although there was a weak indication that recruitment ofA. rubrumwas higher in the presence of herbivores. Insect herbivores reduced survivorship ofL. tulipifera, but had no significant effects onA. rubrum,Fraxinusspp.,F. grandifolia, orL. styraciflua. Additionally, insects reduced growth rates of early pioneer speciesA. rubrum,L. tulipifera, andL. styraciflua, but had little effect on more shade-tolerant speciesF. grandifoliaandFraxinusspp. Overall, by negatively impacting growth and survivorship of early pioneer species, forest insects may play an important but relatively cryptic role in forest gap dynamics, with potentially interesting impacts on the overall maintenance of diversity.

A highly coordinated complex known as the microprocessor precisely processes primary transcripts of MIRNA genes into mature miRNAs. In plants, the microprocessor minimally consists of three components: Dicer‐like protein 1 (DCL1), HYPONASTIC LEAF 1 (HYL1), and SERRATE (SE). To precisely modulate miRNA maturation, the microprocessor cooperates with at least 12 proteins in plants. In addition, we here show the involvement of a novel gene, HYL1‐interacting GIY‐YIG‐like endonuclease (HIGLE). The encoded protein has a GIY‐YIG domain that is generally found within a class of homing endonucleases. HIGLE directly interacts with the microprocessor components HYL1 and SE. Unlike the functions of other GIY‐YIG endonucleases, the catalytic core of HIGLE has both DNase and RNase activities that sufficiently processes miRNA precursors into short fragments in vitro.
Relative roles of the MJO and stratospheric variability in North Atlantic and European winter climate
Authors: Schwartz Chen , Garfinkel Chaim I. 
Published: March 2017

AbstractEuropean and eastern United States wintertime weather is strongly influenced by large‐scale modes of variability in the Northern Hemisphere such as the Arctic Oscillation (AO) and North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). The negative phase of the NAO has been linked to both the Madden‐Julian Oscillation (MJO) phase with convection in the West Pacific (phases 6 and 7) and to stratospheric sudden warmings (SSW), but the relative role of each phenomenon is not clear, and the two phenomena are themselves linked, as more than half of SSW events were preceded by phases 6 and 7 of the MJO. Here we disentangle the relative roles of MJO phase 6/7 and stratospheric variability for Northern Hemisphere surface weather during boreal winter. We show that stratospheric variability leads to significantly different North Atlantic anomalies if it is preceded by MJO phase 6/7. Furthermore, MJO phase 6/7 leads to a long‐lived negative AO pattern only if it modulates the stratosphere first. Hence, proper attribution of their respective influence on surface weather needs to take into consideration the linkages between these two phenomena. Finally, MJO phase 6/7 events that lead to SSW can be differentiated from those which do not by their characteristics within the tropics: only MJO phase 6/7 events in which enhanced convection propagates into the South China Sea, which rarely occurs in winter, lead to SSWs.

Published: March 2017

AbstractAn inexpensive nickel(II) catalyst and a hydrosilane were used for the efficient reductive defunctionalization of aryl and heteroaryl esters through a decarbonylative pathway. This versatile method could be used for the removal of ester and amide functional groups from various organic molecules. Moreover, a scale‐up experiment and a synthetic application based on the use of a removable carboxylic acid directing group highlight the usefulness of this reaction.

Authors: Ran Ning , Wang Shouguang , Su Hongye , Wang Chengying 
Published: March 2017

AbstractFault diagnosis is an important problem in the manufacturing industry. It has been extensively studied in the past few decades both in time‐driven systems and discrete event systems. This paper presents a Petri net diagnoser for online fault diagnosis of discrete event systems modeled by bounded labeled Petri nets. First, we present the concept and some properties of an extended basis reachability graph. Next, based on such a graph, we construct a Petri net diagnoser that is used to determine if a fault has occurred. Finally, an example is given to illustrate the application of the proposed diagnoser.

Authors: Li Wei , Xu Ruihua , Luo Qin , Jones Steven 
Published: March 2017

SummaryThis paper studies last train coordination problem for metro networks, aiming to maximize the total number of passengers who can reach their destinations by metro prior to the end of operation. The concept of last boarding time is defined as the latest time that passengers can board the last trains and reach final destinations. The corresponding method for calculating last boarding time is also put forward. With automatic fare collection system data, an optimization model for coordinating last trains is proposed. The objective function optimizes the number of passengers who can reach their final destinations during the train period using departure times and headways of last trains for each line as decision variables. Afterwards, an adaptive genetic algorithm is put forward to solve this model and is applied to a case study of the Shanghai metro system. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Insights into cell‐free therapeutic approach: Role of stem cell “soup‐ernatant”
Authors: Raik Shalini , Kumar Ajay , Bhattacharyya Shalmoli 
Published: March 2017

AbstractCurrent advances in medicine have revolutionized the field of regenerative medicine dramatically with newly evolved therapies for repair or replacement of degenerating or injured tissues. Stem cells (SCs) can be harvested from different sources for clinical therapeutics, which include fetal tissues, umbilical cord blood, embryos, and adult tissues. SCs can be isolated and differentiated into desired lineages for tissue regeneration and cell replacement therapy. However, several loopholes need to be addressed properly before this can be extended for large‐scale therapeutic application. These include a careful approach for patient safety during SC treatments and tolerance of recipients. SC treatments are associated with a number of risk factors and require successful integration and survival of transplanted cells in the desired microenvironment with concurrent tissue regeneration. Recent studies have focused on developing alternatives that can replace the cell‐based therapy using paracrine factors. The development of stem “cell free” therapies can be devoted mainly to the use of soluble factors (secretome), extracellular vesicles, and mitochondrial transfer. The present review emphasizes on the paradigms related to the use of SC‐based therapeutics and the potential applications of a cell‐free approach as an alternative to cell‐based therapy in the area of regenerative medicine.
Music is awesome: Influences of emotion, personality, and preference on experienced awe
Authors: Pilgrim Leanne , Norris J. Ian , Hackathorn Jana 
Published: March 2017

AbstractAwe is a complex, cognitive–conceptual emotion associated with transcendence and wonder. Music has the power to create this kind of transcendence. Can music evoke awe? Previous research demonstrates that awe is associated with individual differences in personality such as openness. This study examined whether different kinds of music across a wide variety of genres can evoke awe and whether the experience of awe depends on individual differences. The study further investigated the relationship of awe to patterns of emotional responses to different dimensions of musical genre. Study 1 demonstrated that high need for cognition and low cognitive closure predicted awe for reflective and complex music, that felt happiness predicted awe for all kinds of music, and that perceived happiness and sadness predicted awe only for reflective and complex music. Study 2 replicated the finding that perceived sadness can evoke awe in reflective and complex music and further demonstrated that experienced musical awe correlates with individual differences in the tendency to experience awe more generally. These results are of interest to advertisers interested in evoking awe with music and marketers interested in segmenting to target the appropriate populations for this purpose.

AbstractThe first method for the dehydrogenation of nitrogen heterocycles catalyzed by a palladium nanocatalyst was developed. Carbon–metal covalent‐bond‐stabilized nanoparticles were found to be efficient for the dehydrogenation process in the presence of tert‐butyl hydroperoxide. A variety of N‐heterocycles were transformed into functionalized quinolines in medium to excellent yields in water as the solvent under mild conditions by a simple operation.
