The right periphery in Ancient Greek
Authors: Ruiz Yamuza Emilia 
Published: May 2017

Abstract
The paper focuses on the pragmatic functions of elements appearing in the right periphery of the sentence in Ancient Greek. It presents a tentative approach based on a study of Polybius, books 1–5. The second section of the paper centres on the problems related to the concept of right periphery. The syntactic structures which appear in this position are considered in the third section. Section 4 analyses the functions fulfilled by the right periphery elements found in the corpus: (1) they provide clarification of topics; (2) they tend to introduce additional information that is especially salient for the following discourse; (3) in the epitactic pattern, they introduce an additional focus; (4) they have a comment function, expressing the author’s stance.
A unitary account of the meaning of kaí
Authors: Crespo Emilio 
Published: May 2017

Abstract
In this article I argue that classical Greek kaí (translated as ‘and’, ‘also, too, even’ and ‘actually’) expresses a nearly unitary meaning and that several features in its environment enable the correct selection of one of its values. Basically, kaí is (i) a coordinator when it links two explicit units that perform the same syntactic function and are equally asserted, (ii) an additive focus adverb when one of the linked units is explicit and its alternative does not perform the same syntactic function or is tacit and presupposed, and (iii) an adverb of emphasis when the alternative to the modified unit is absent or difficult for the addressee to retrieve.
Cultural translation, traveling law, and the transposition of indigenous rights to Indonesian contexts
Authors: Ramstedt Martin 
Published: May 2017

AbstractIn this article, I propose a methodological specification of the concept of cultural translation as a heuristic tool, with which to gain a better understanding of what is at stake when law “travels” across legal cultures, from one society to another. Applied to the transposition of indigenous rights to different Indonesian contexts and locales, the proposed methodological specification reveals a paradoxical shift that occurs in the course of this transposition, not so much in terms of the legal content of indigenous rights, but with regard to their institutional framework and intended target communities.
Juvenile Steelhead Locate Coldwater Refugia in an Intermittently Closed Estuary
Authors: Matsubu William , Simenstad Charles A. , Horton Gregg E. 
Published: May 2017

AbstractMany coastal estuaries in Mediterranean climates are susceptible to inlet closures resulting from barrier beach formation. These closures are ecologically important because they eliminate tidal exchange and connectivity of nekton movement to the coastal ocean and, depending on closure duration, can convert a dynamic estuary into a quiescent lagoon. Although closures can create lethal or stressful conditions for nekton and benthic communities, especially obligate diadromous species, under some conditions they can enhance survival of juvenile steelhead Oncorhynchus mykiss. However, the mechanisms explaining how closed conditions enhance the growth of juvenile steelhead and how inhabitants avoid physiologically stressful conditions remain unknown. In the present study, recent technological advances in sensor‐encoded acoustic telemetry provided the ability to simultaneously locate and determine the temperature of juvenile steelhead as small as 93 mm FL by using mobile and stationary tracking. In the Russian River estuary, an intermittently closed estuary in northern California, we used acoustic telemetry to infer water quality exposure by linking the temperature of individually tagged fish with water quality profiles collected in close proximity. Under open‐inlet conditions, juvenile steelhead experienced primarily brackish and saline water in the lower and middle reaches and warm freshwater in the upper reach, whereas under closed‐inlet conditions they experienced warm freshwater in the middle and upper reaches. During closed conditions, juvenile steelhead displayed behavior that suggested the ability to mediate stressful environmental conditions; specifically, they responded to closed conditions by moving greater distances and aggregating near thermal refugia. Our findings show the importance of recognizing these strategies when contemplating changes to estuary management and highlight the significance of tributary hydrogeomorphic processes and groundwater linkages in subwatersheds that are sources of cool water for thermal refugia in intermittently closed estuaries.Received August 5, 2016; accepted February 27, 2017 Published online May 11, 2017
Abiotic Habitat Assessment for Arctic Grayling in a Portion of the Big Manistee River, Michigan

Published: May 2017

AbstractArctic Grayling Thymallus arcticus were once the dominant salmonid in the Big Manistee River, Michigan, but were extirpated from the watershed around 1900 and from the state of Michigan by 1936, likely due to overfishing, biotic interactions with introduced fish species, and habitat loss occurring largely around the turn of the 20th century. An interest in reestablishing native species by the Little River Band of Ottawa Indians led to an assessment of environmental conditions in a portion of the watershed encompassing 21 km of the Big Manistee River to determine whether suitable Arctic Grayling habitat remains. During summer in 2011–2013, abiotic habitat metrics, including water characteristics, substrate composition, channel profile, channel geomorphic unit, and stream velocity, were assessed across eight tributaries within the watershed. To assess whether abiotic conditions in these tributaries might support Arctic Grayling, the environmental conditions were compared to literature values from rivers where current or historical Arctic Grayling populations have been reported. This comparison, in conjunction with an assessment using a habitat suitability index for Arctic Grayling, indicated that important abiotic conditions were within ranges consistent with those associated with current and past populations of Arctic Grayling in North America. The results of this study will guide potential future reintroductions and indicate that suitable Arctic Grayling habitat does exist in portions of the Big Manistee River watershed, an assessment that will be further refined when coupled with biotic features of the environment.Received September 6, 2016; accepted February 28, 2017 Published online May 9, 2017
Efficacy and Physiological Response to Chemical Anesthesia in Wild Hickory Shad during Spawning Season
Authors: Matsche Mark A. 
Published: May 2017

Abstract
Anesthetizing fish facilitates handling procedures such as hormone injections to induce spawning, reduces risk of injuries, and may reduce stress response. We conducted two experiments with wild Hickory Shad Alosa mediocris caught by angling during spawning season. Induction and recovery times of fish anesthetized with tricaine methanesulfonate (MS-222 at 50–100 mg/L of water), 2-phenoxyethanol (PhE at 25–400 mg/L), and eugenol (Aqui-S, 25–100 mg/L) were compared in the first experiment, while physiological responses in fish following anesthesia were compared in the second experiment. Total time to induce and recover from anesthesia in fish was lowest with MS-222 at 100 mg/L and eugenol at 100 mg/L. External signs of stress (muscle spasms, coughing, decreased respiration) were evident in fish during anesthesia with highest concentration of PhE (400 mg/L), while physiological indicators of toxicity were evident in fish anesthetized with a lower concentration of PhE (100 mg/L) compared with controls (i.e., decreased total proteins and increased hemolysis, plasma lactate, and glucose). Reduced stress response (lower glucose and plasma lactate) was evident in fish treated with MS-222 (100 mg/L) at 1 h postinjection and with eugenol (100 mg/L) at 6 h. Both MS-222 and eugenol were effective in rapidly anesthetizing wild Hickory Shad with fewer signs of stress than PhE; however, more information is needed regarding effects of these anesthetics on spawning, gamete quality, and fertilization success in hickory shad and other species.
Single-cell regulome data analysis by SCRAT
Authors: Ji Zhicheng , Zhou Weiqiang , Ji Hongkai 
Published: May 2017

Abstract

Summary
Emerging single-cell technologies (e.g. single-cell ATAC-seq, DNase-seq or ChIP-seq) have made it possible to assay regulome of individual cells. Single-cell regulome data are highly sparse and discrete. Analyzing such data is challenging. User-friendly software tools are still lacking. We present SCRAT, a Single-Cell Regulome Analysis Toolbox with a graphical user interface, for studying cell heterogeneity using single-cell regulome data. SCRAT can be used to conveniently summarize regulatory activities according to different features (e.g. gene sets, transcription factor binding motif sites, etc.). Using these features, users can identify cell subpopulations in a heterogeneous biological sample, infer cell identities of each subpopulation, and discover distinguishing features such as gene sets and transcription factors that show different activities among subpopulations.

Quantifying and predicting responses to a US West Coast salmon fishery closure
Authors: Richerson Kate , Holland Daniel S 
Published: May 2017

AbstractAs anthropogenic changes interact with natural climate cycles, the variability of marine ecosystems is likely to increase. Changes in productivity of particular fisheries might be expected to lead not only to direct impacts within a fishery but to economic and ecological effects on other fisheries if there is substantial cross-participation by fishers. We use data from the US West Coast salmon troll fishery before, during, and after a large-scale closure to illustrate how altered resource availability influences the behaviour of fishing vessels in heterogeneous ways. We find that vessels were less likely to participate in fishing of any type during the closure, with &gt;40% of vessels ceasing fishing temporarily and 17% exiting permanently. Vessels that were more dependent on salmon were more likely to cease fishing while more diversified vessels were more likely to continue. In spite of a high level of cross-participation, we find limited evidence that vessels increased their participation in other fisheries to offset lost salmon revenue. Ports that obtained more of their revenue from salmon troll vessels saw larger decreases in their revenue during the closure. Ocean conditions from 2013 to 2015 suggest the possibility of another highly restricted salmon fishing season in 2017. Our models predict that such restrictions would cause another economic disaster and lead to a large fraction of vessels exiting fishing but suggest that effects on fisheries linked by cross-participation are likely to be low.
Novel Bilateral Extracavitary Approach for Thoracolumbar Decompression
Authors: Mullin Jeffrey P , Chan Alvin Y , Bennett Emily , Steinmetz Michael P 
Published: May 2017

Abstract

BACKGROUND
Bilateral extracavitary approach (BECA) is an option for decompression cases that require a more extended ventral approach. The clear advantage is increased accessibility to the most ventral aspects of the spine from a bilateral perspective.

OBJECTIVE
To assess the safety and efficacy of thoracic and thoracolumbar decompression and/or reconstruction from BECA.

METHODS
A retrospective chart review was performed reviewing all patients who underwent BECA for thoracolumbar decompression from 2003 to 2012 at our institution. We recorded patient baseline characteristics, physical exam, surgical indications, perioperative interventions, and outcomes.

RESULTS
We performed 82 lateral extracavitary approaches and 10 BECAs. BECA indications included neoplasm, infection, and kyphotic deformity. Average patient age was 58 yr; 80% of BECA patients were male. Estimated blood loss was typically 1 to 3 L. Average length of stay postoperative was 12 d. Two patients required revisions; one for infection and one for revision of misplaced hardware. Eight patients improved at least one grade on the American Spinal Injury Association Impairment Scale (ASIA) or was originally ASIA E. Two patients declined 1 to 2 ASIA grades. Average length of follow-up was 16.8 mo.

CONCLUSION
BECA is an efficient technique with acceptable complication rates and similar risks to unilateral approaches. It should be considered when extensive bilateral decompression and/or reconstruction of the anterior thoracic or thoracolumbar spine is required.
Magnetoreception of Invertebrates
Authors: Vacha Martin 
Published: May 2017

Abstract
Exploiting invertebrates, such as the fruit fly Drosophila or nematode Caenorhabditis, with a modifiable genome seems to be key to answering the fundamental question of the molecular principle of magnetoreception. This review presents the state of knowledge on invertebrate sensitivity to geomagnetic field (GMF) over the last 20 years from a number of viewpoints, with particular emphasis on the behavioral aspect of testing. It shows that experimental approaches are generally specific to the particular research teams, and positive replication at other laboratories is practically nonexistent. The questions surrounding an animal compass are fascinating, but to achieve a level of knowledge of the magnetic sense at least closer to the other senses, a standardized, commercially available, and routinely applicable test on the classic invertebrate model to the natural GMF is still badly needed.
Christology
Authors: Del Colle Ralph 
Published: May 2017

Abstract
In espousing a communion ecclesiology in which members of the church participate in the life of the Trinity through the work of Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit, most ecumenical dialogue has presumed Trinitarian and Christological belief in accord with the early councils of the church. Few dialogues have explicitly addressed the topic of Christology, but highly significant results have been achieved in those dialogues. This chapter analyses a number of decisive agreements reached between Chalcedonian and non-Chalcedonian (Oriental Orthodox and Assyrian) churches, and several agreed statements between Reformation churches which, while accepting the Chalcedonian definition, have traditionally held different understandings of the communicatio idiomatum between the two natures of Christ and his divine person, with consequently varying understandings of the presence of Christ in the Eucharist.
Latin America
Authors: Míguez Néstor O. 
Published: May 2017

Abstract
The chapter gives a brief historic account of the religious background of Latin America from the Conquest to the present day. It deals with the imposition of the Catholic Church over the indigenous religions, and with the syncretism and diversity thus created, especially after the arrival of Protestant churches and new religious movements. It considers the development from harsh religious confrontation to ecumenical dialogue in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the appearance of Latin American liberation theology, and the growth of evangelical and Pentecostal missions. The crucial importance of the Second Vatican Council, of the Latin American and Caribbean Catholic Bishops Conferences, and of the presence of the ecumenical movement in the areas of politics and culture is described. The consequences of the election of Pope Francis as the first Latin American pope are considered. The chapter concludes with a panorama of the ecumenical and interreligious situation of the continent.
Native American Signed Languages
Authors: Davis Jeffrey 
Published: May 2017

Abstract
This chapter highlights the linguistic study of Native American signed language varieties, which are broadly referred to as American Indian Sign Language (AISL). It describes how indigenous sign language serves as an alternative to spoken language, how it is acquired as a first or second language, and how it is used both among deaf and hearing tribal members and internationally as a type of signed lingua franca. It discusses the first fieldwork carried out in over fifty years to focus on the linguistic status of AISL, which is considered an endangered language variety but is still used and learned natively by some members of various Indian nations across Canada and the United States (e.g. Assiniboine, Blackfeet/Blackfoot, Cherokee, Crow, Northern Cheyenne, Nakoda/Lakȟóta, and Mandan-Hidatsa). The chapter also addresses questions of language contact and spread, including code-switching and lexical borrowing, as well as historical linguistic questions.
Egypt in Roman Visual and Material Culture
Authors: Barrett Caitlín Eilís 
Published: May 2017

Abstract
This review article addresses current controversies and opportunities in research on the roles, uses, and meanings of “Egypt” in ancient Roman visual and material culture. Accordingly, the article investigates problems of definition and interpretation; provides a critical review of current scholarly approaches; and analyzes the field’s intersections with current intellectual developments in the broader fields of archaeology and art history. It is argued that research on Roman Aegyptiaca can gain much from, and is poised to contribute substantially to, (1) 21st-century archaeology’s “material turn”; (2) the construction of new interpretive frameworks for cross-cultural interactions and “hybridization”; and (3) increased attention to the relationships among artifacts, contexts, and assemblages. Roman visual representations of Egypt provide a rich testing ground for research on intercultural exchange, the lived experience of empire, and the complex entanglement of people, things, and images.
Inpatient Postpartum Long-Acting Reversible Contraception and Sterilization in the United States, 2008–2013
Authors: Moniz Michelle H. , Chang Tammy , Heisler Michele , Admon Lindsay , Gebremariam Acham , Dalton Vanessa K. , Davis Matthew M. 
Published: May 2017

OBJECTIVE:
To measure rates of long-acting reversible contraception (LARC), including intrauterine devices and contraceptive implants, and tubal sterilization during delivery hospitalizations and correlates of their use.

METHODS:
This retrospective cohort study used the 2008–2013 National Inpatient Sample, a publicly available all-payer database. We identified delivery hospitalizations with the International Classification of Diseases, 9th Revision, Clinical Modification codes for intrauterine device insertion, contraceptive implant insertion, and tubal sterilization. We used weighted multivariable logistic regression to examine associations between predictors (age, delivery mode, medical comorbidity, payer, hospital type, geographic region, and year) and likelihood of LARC and sterilization and to compare characteristics of LARC and sterilization users.

RESULTS:
Our sample included 4,691,683 discharges, representing 22,667,204 delivery hospitalizations. Long-acting reversible contraception insertion increased from 1.86 per 10,000 deliveries (2008–2009) to 13.5 per 10,000 deliveries (2012–2013; P<.001); tubal sterilization remained stable (711–683 per 10,000 deliveries; P=.24). In multivariable analysis adjusting for all predictors, compared with neither LARC nor sterilization, LARC use was highest among women with medical comorbidities (count per 10,000 deliveries: 15.04, standard error 2.11, adjusted odds ratio [OR] 1.92, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.72–2.13), nonprivate payer (13.50, standard error 2.14, adjusted OR 5.23, 95% CI 3.82–7.16), and at urban teaching hospitals (14.92, standard error 2.25, adjusted OR 20.85, 95% CI 12.73–34.15). Sterilization was least likely among women aged 24 years or younger (251.04, standard error 4.88, adjusted OR 0.12 95% CI 0.12–0.13, compared with 35 years or older) and most likely with cesarean delivery (1,568.74, standard error 20.81, adjusted OR 6.25, 95% CI 5.88–6.63). Comparing only LARC and sterilization users, LARC users tended to have nonprivate insurance (84.95% compared with 57.17%, adjusted OR 1.90, 95% CI 1.38–2.63) and deliver at urban teaching hospitals (94.65% compared with 45.47%, adjusted OR 38.39, 23.52–62.64) in later study years (2012–2013; 55.72% compared with 32.18%, adjusted OR 8.26, 95% CI 4.42–15.44, compared with 2008–2009).

CONCLUSION:
Long-acting reversible contraception insertion increased from 1.86 to 13.5 per 10,000 deliveries but remained less than 2% of the sterilization rate. Inpatient postpartum LARC insertion is more likely among sicker, poorer women delivering at urban teaching hospitals.

Published: May 2017

BACKGROUND:Freezing strips of ovarian cortex before chemotherapy followed by transplantation is an experimental method to preserve fertility for reproductive-aged women with cancer. We report a case of a cancer patient who developed a mucinous cystadenoma in a grafted piece of ovarian cortex.CASE:A 32-year-old woman with a Ewing sarcoma had ovarian cryopreservation using cortical strip freezing before receiving chemotherapy. Five years later she had no ovarian function, and the strips were thawed and grafted back onto the ovary. She spontaneously became pregnant 1 year after this procedure and delivered a healthy neonate near term. During the cesarean delivery, a 5×3–cm cyst was removed from the graft. On pathologic evaluation, it was determined to be a mucinous cystadenoma.CONCLUSION:Ovarian pathology can develop in previously frozen ovarian cortex tissue after transplantation back onto the ovary. This suggests that routine gynecologic surveillance remains important for these women.
Medical and Obstetric Complications Among Pregnant Women With Liver Cirrhosis
Authors: Palatnik Anna , Rinella Mary E. 
Published: May 2017

OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate clinical characteristics and obstetric outcomes in pregnant women with liver cirrhosis.

METHODS:
This was a retrospective matched cohort study of women with liver cirrhosis between January 2005 and January 2016 in a university hospital. Women in a case group were matched to women in a control group according to year of delivery, age, body mass index, and parity in a 1:4 ratio. Bivariable and multivariable analyses were performed to compare the prevalence of the primary composite outcome, which included any one of the following: fetal or neonatal demise, placental abruption, preeclampsia, preterm delivery at less than 37 weeks of gestation, and small-for-gestational age neonate between women in the case group and those in the control group.

RESULTS:
During the study period, the number of deliveries was approximately 110,000. Of these, 33 women with liver cirrhosis were identified, yielding an estimated frequency of cirrhosis of 1 per 3,333 pregnancies [95% confidence interval (CI) 3,313–3,353]. Thirty-one of these 33 women met all inclusion criteria. The most common etiology of cirrhosis was alcoholic liver disease. The rate of the primary outcome was 61% in women with cirrhosis and 12% in women in the control group. There were no cases of maternal death, and the livebirth rate was 97%. Women with cirrhosis were more likely to be non-Hispanic black, have chronic hypertension, and use alcohol. Multivariable logistic regression demonstrated that cirrhosis in pregnancy was associated with the composite outcome (adjusted odds ratio 9.4, 95% CI 3.4–26.2).

CONCLUSION:
Despite lower rates of maternal and fetal mortality compared with earlier studies, pregnancy in women with liver cirrhosis is still associated with a high risk of adverse obstetric outcomes.
