Virtually home: Feasibility study and pilot randomised controlled trial of a virtual reality intervention to support patient discharge after stroke
Authors: Threapleton Kate , Newberry Karen , Sutton Greg , Worthington Esme , Drummond Avril 
Published: January 2018

Introduction Virtual reality has the potential to assist occupational therapists in preparing patients for discharge by facilitating discussions and providing education about relevant practical issues and safety concerns. This study aimed to explore the feasibility of using a virtual reality intervention to support patient discharge after stroke and pilot its use. Method Practical aspects of delivering a virtual reality intervention prior to discharge were explored by means of a non-randomised feasibility study and a subsequent pilot randomised controlled trial. Factors considered included eligibility, recruitment, intervention delivery, attrition and suitability of outcome measures. Outcome measures included standardised assessments of stroke severity, mobility, health-related quality of life, functional ability, satisfaction with services and concerns about falling. Results Thirty-three participants were recruited in total: 17 to the feasibility study and 16 to the pilot trial. At 1-month follow-up, 14 participants (82%) were re-assessed in the feasibility study and 12 (75%) in the pilot trial. The main difficulties encountered related to recruitment, particularly regarding post-stroke cognitive impairments, the presence of mild deficits or illness. Conclusion It was feasible to recruit and retain participants, deliver the intervention and collect outcome measures, despite slow recruitment rates. These findings could inform the design of a definitive trial.
Cannabis use in Finland in the 1990s: An Overview of Adult Populations Survey Results
Authors: Partanen Juha , Metso Leena 
Published: January 2018

Since 1992 six surveys have been carried out in Finland on the use of drugs by the general adult population. The samples of these studies have been drawn from the central population register, excluding people in institutions or without a permanent address. They seem to be fairly representative, but the methods of data collection have varied. Four of the studies used questionnaires, but telephone and face-to-face interviews have also been used. The response rates vary, partly because of the method of data collection. Therefore the results of these studies are not directly comparable. The article summarizes the results of these studies concerning lifetime prevalence of cannabis use among men, women, and young adults (18–29 years). Using a simple mathematical model, it answers the following questions: 1) has the use of cannabis become more common? 2) To what extent have the differences in data collection methods and response rates affected the results? The results of the analysis indicate that 1) in 1992–1996 the annual relative increase in the prevalence of cannabis use has been 9 per cent for men, 4 per cent for women, and 11 per cent for young adults; 2) in comparison with the results of mail surveys, telephone and face-to-face interviews yield considerably lower figures, especially among women; and 3) an increase of one percentage point in the response rate raises the prevalence figure by 3 per cent. Although these results are based on fairly large samples and are consistent with previous studies, it should be noted that the estimates are essentially based on the results of one particular study. Therefore some doubts remain about their generalizability.
Liberalisation of Finnish Alcohol Legislation in the Reform of 1994
Authors: Alavaikko Mika 
Published: January 2018

The article looks at the preparation of the new Alcohol Act as well as the parliamentary proceedings. The attention is focused on the internal dynamics of the process and on the way it was subordinate to other political considerations. Even though the preparation of the legislation was begun in 1991 to alleviate growing internal pressure in the country, it became a part of the government's tug-of-war even before parliamentary proceedings. The preparation of the new Act and the parliamentary proceedings also became intermingled with Finland's EU membership negotiations and the pressures arising from the EEA agreement, effective from the beginning of 1994. The focal point is whether or not the decisions made can be traced back to the interests of commerce and industry. It is argued that the Parliament, and particularly the Social Affairs and Health Committee, assumed an active role in the process, and that the decisions cannot fully be traced back to the interests of commerce and industry. In the Parliament, the new legislation became remarkably more liberal than the government's proposal would have entailed. In this respect, the central issues were the sanctioning of retail sale of viticulturists' products and table beer, partial removal of restrictions to alcohol advertising and equating all alcoholic beverages, with an alcoholic strength by volume of less than 4.7 per cent, with beer in retail. With the decision made in the Parliament, the Alcohol Act begins to take on ideological qualities. In particular, the interests of commerce and industry alone simply cannot explain the sanctioning of retail sale of viticulturists' products or table beer. The decision on alcohol advertising also involves ideological considerations. In the light of all the above, the alcohol legislation has taken a huge step towards liberalisation. The interests of commerce and industry also strengthened their position in the field.
Self-Help in a Tradition of Popular Movements - the Swedish Link Movement
Authors: Kurube Noriko 
Published: January 2018

The first Link Society was set up in 1945 in response to the intensive development of institutional care in Sweden. The Society was based on the working-class ideology of self-help as opposed to social engineering: the argument was that the only people who really understood alcohol abuse and who could resolve the problems of alcohol abuse were alcoholics themselves, not the scientists behind the social engineering or the temperance people. At the time that it was being formed the Link movement was very much influenced by the so-called Oxford group movement. As the movement's ideology took shape in subsequent years, the AA movement was a major influence. The Link movement's seven-point programme closely follows the AA's Twelve Steps, but the spiritual element has been replaced by the kind of profane solidarity that is typical of Swedish popular movements. The Link movement has thus extended the principle of solidarity from classical popular movements to a category of individual deviance. Primarily for reasons that had to do with securing adequate funding, the Link Society decided from the outset to follow the same principles of organization as govern Swedish associations in general: it has formal criteria for membership and the right to vote, detailed rules for decision-making and it adheres firmly to the majority rule for internal democracy. As a consequence of this the movement has undergone several organizational conflicts and breakups. Today, the movement is divided into several rival organizations, but it seems that all of them have remained viable. Over the years half of the associations involved in the Link movement have become more and more bureaucratic and evolved into interest organizations that are now incorporated into the political decision-making apparatus. The other half of the movement has opted to remain independent of the state, underlining its role as a self-help group with relatively loose organizational structures of grassroots democracy.
Merchant, priest and humble engineer: Observations from Rotterdam's drug scenes
Authors: Partanen Juha 
Published: January 2018

The object of the study is the drug scene and the administration of drug-related services in Rotterdam. The focus is on the relationship between drug users and the drug control system. The study draws upon observations and documents, and numerous interviews with civil servants, treatment staff, and drug users. The Dutch view on the nature of the problem and appropriate ways to treat drug users is different from what is common elsewhere. No legal sanctions relate to smoking of cannabis or to possession of small amounts, whereas large-scale trade, smuggling, and commercial cultivation are criminal activities. Neither is the use of hard drugs or possession for personal use criminalized. The core of the drug problem is seen to be on one hand the nuisance caused by those addicted hard drug users, and on the other hand the threat to the economy and politics of the country created by criminal drug organizations. In dealing with drug-related nuisance the aim is harm reduction. The central idea is the normalization of the drug problem. This means that efforts are made to keep drug users in contact with society, instead of pushing them outside by pursuing repressive policies. The threshold to health and social services and to treatment is kept as low as possible. At the same time addicts are held responsible for their behavior, and they are required to follow the regulations of the institutions providing support and treatment. Two remarkable aspects of the administration of drug-related affairs are a close co-operation between health authorities and the police, and an emphasis on Japanese-style neighborhood policing. The support and treatment services for drug users are run by private foundations that are fully financed by the government and the city. The extensive system of municipal services is supplemented by voluntary aid mainly provided by the churches and religious organizations. The Dutch way of dealing with the drug problem derives from the traditions of governance and political culture in Dutch society. These are crystallized in three character masks: those of the pragmatic and prudent merchant, more concerned with practical problems than lofty ideals, the charitable and paternalistic priest, and the humble engineer who in his age-long fight against floods has learned that nature can be controlled but never fully tamed.
A re-evaluation of the yield from national surveys of mental health
Authors: Kessler Ronald C. , Üstün T. Bedirhan 
Published: January 2018

Having spent a considerable amount of time thinking about the uses of large-scale descriptive psychiatric epidemiological needs assessment surveys in our capacity as co-directors of the World Health Organization's World Mental Health Survey Initiative, we agree with many of the conclusions of Henderson and Andrews. Most importantly, we agree:
∘that among the most important benefits of these surveys have been their political value in documenting high prevalence and high disability∘that the time has come to expand the focus to study causes.
Hierarchical genetic interactions between FOXG1 and LHX2 regulate the formation of the cortical hem in the developing telencephalon
Authors: Godbole Geeta , Shetty Ashwin S. , Roy Achira , D'Souza Leora , Chen Bin , Miyoshi Goichi , Fishell Gordon , Tole Shubha 
Published: January 2018

ABSTRACT
During forebrain development, a telencephalic organizer called the cortical hem is crucial for inducing hippocampal fate in adjacent cortical neuroepithelium. How the hem is restricted to its medial position is therefore a fundamental patterning issue. Here, we demonstrate that Foxg1-Lhx2 interactions are crucial for the formation of the hem. Loss of either gene causes a region of the cortical neuroepithelium to transform into hem. We show that FOXG1 regulates Lhx2 expression in the cortical primordium. In the absence of Foxg1, the presence of Lhx2 is sufficient to suppress hem fate, and hippocampal markers appear selectively in Lhx2-expressing regions. FOXG1 also restricts the temporal window in which loss of Lhx2 results in a transformation of cortical primordium into hem. Therefore, Foxg1 and Lhx2 form a genetic hierarchy in the spatiotemporal regulation of cortical hem specification and positioning, and together ensure the normal development of this hippocampal organizer.

Anatomy and physiology, 5. The musculoskeletal system
Authors: Peate Ian 
Published: January 2018

This article considers the musculoskeletal system, which provides form, support, stability, and movement to the body. It is made up of the bones, muscles, cartilage, tendons ligaments and joints. Every bone is a complex living organ that is made up of a number of cells, protein fibres and minerals. The axial and appendicular skeleton are outlined, the types of bones are described, as are the joints. Other functions of the skeleton, such as its role in blood formation, how it stores various types of substances to encourage growth and repair of the body, are also discussed. The muscles of the muscular system keep bones in place, assisting with movement by contracting and pulling on the bones. The joints allow motion: different bones are connected by joints, which in turn are connected to other bones and muscle fibres via connective tissues, such as tendons and ligaments. The cartilage prevents the bone ends from rubbing directly on each other. The healthcare assistant and assistant practitioner (HCA and AP) should have an understanding of the skeletal system as they offer care to a variety of patients across the lifespan. A glossary of terms is provided at the end of the article, along with a short quiz.

Barbara Bray: A champion of French ‘New Novelists’ on British radio
Authors: Landfried Carrie C. 
Published: January 2018

Abstract
This article examines the role played by Barbara Bray in the selection, adaptation, translation and, occasionally, production of works by French New Novelists on the BBC’s Third Programme starting in the late 1950s. Bray worked tirelessly to promote these francophone avant-garde authors, including Michel Butor, Marguerite Duras, Claude Mauriac, Claude Ollier, Robert Pinget, Alain Robbe-Grillet and Nathalie Sarraute. She was particularly passionate about the work of Duras and Pinget, with whom she maintained a professional relationship as their translator even after leaving the BBC. A study of samples of Duras and Pinget’s radiophonic adaptations illustrates Bray’s talents. Although the results of her efforts were mixed as some authors and texts were rejected by the British radio giant, she helped expose audiences to important experimental works, all while encouraging certain writers to more fully explore the radiophonic affinities of their art.
Growth of Aechmea fasciata plants in function of substrate base saturation and fertirrigation methods

Published: January 2018

Bromeliads are plants that have a high variability in the fertilization possibilities. Bromeliads are plants that have a high variability in the fertilization possibilities. This is due to the capacity of absorption of water and nutrients by their foliar trichomes and root system. This research was conducted with the objective to evaluate the development of Aechmea fasciata plants according to the substrate base saturation and the application methods of the nutritive solution. The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse with light intensity between 8,000 and 9,000 Lx. The experimental design was a randomized block design with a factorial statistical arrangement 2x5 factorial (2 percentages of substrate base saturation x 5 combinations between the methods of fertirrigation) with 4 repetitions and 7 plants by portion. The substrate base saturation (V%) established was from 20% to 40% and the fertirrigation was provided by a leaf cistern and directly in the substrate, following these proportions: 100% leaf cistern, 75% leaf cistern and 25% substrate, 50% leaf cistern and 50% substrate, 25% leaf cistern and 75% substrate and 100% substrate. The plants were conducted in vase number 11, 15 and 17, and in each change of vases, it was evaluated the plant height, the rosette diameter, the stalk diameter, the number of leaves and the leaf width. The dry phytomass and leaf area were determined in the vase changes 15 and 17. Moreover, the root exploration and the inclination degree of the plants were determined in the end of the cultivation in vase 17. As conclusion, substrate base saturation greater than 20% damages the growth of Aechmea fasciata plants. The best development of the aerial and root part of Aechmea fasciata plants were achieved when 75% of the nutritive solution is applied via cistern and 25% via substrate.

Published: January 2018

Abstract
The regularities of the changes of horizontal and sub-horizontal systems of cracks at different locations of Holovyne labradorite deposits are studied. The trend for stress to increase has been established in the quarry LLS “Optima” for Holovyne labradorite deposits in Volodar-Volynsk district, Zhytomyr region at the deepening of excavation. The duration of the working cycle of borehole drilling in a solid and cracked massif is calculated using a new method. The calendar planning method of mining is developed taking into account the dependence of drilling efficiency on horizontal and sub-horizontal systems of cracks.
