Is There an Association Between the “Critical Shoulder Angle” and Clinical Outcome After Rotator Cuff Repair?
Authors: Kirsch Jacob M. , Nathani Amit , Robbins Christopher B. , Gagnier Joel J. , Bedi Asheesh , Miller Bruce S. 
Published: April 2017

Background: Variations in scapular morphology have been associated with the development of atraumatic rotator cuff tears (RCTs). The critical shoulder angle (CSA) accounts for both glenoid inclination and lateral extension of the acromion. The impact of the CSA on outcomes after rotator cuff repair (RCR) has not been investigated previously. Hypothesis: Our hypothesis was that individuals with smaller CSAs will have better patient-reported outcome scores over time compared with those with larger CSAs. Theoretically, a smaller CSA minimizes the biomechanical forces favoring superior translation of the humeral head, which may be advantageous after RCR. This is the first study to examine the relationship between the CSA and clinical outcomes after RCR. Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 2. Methods: Fifty-three patients (mean age, 61 years) with atraumatic full-thickness RCTs who underwent arthroscopic RCR were prospectively evaluated. Demographic data as well as the Western Ontario Rotator Cuff Index (WORC) score, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, and a visual analog scale (VAS) for pain were prospectively collected at various time points up to 24 months postoperatively. Statistical analysis included longitudinal multilevel regression modeling to investigate the association between the CSA and the WORC, ASES, and VAS scores. Results: The overall clinical outcome, as measured by the WORC, ASES, and VAS, improved significantly ( P < .0001). Controlling for demographic and clinical characteristics, a multilevel regression analysis demonstrated that the CSA was not a significant independent predictor for change in WORC ( P = .581), ASES ( P = .458), or VAS ( P = .859) scores at 24 months after arthroscopic RCR. Interobserver and intraobserver reliability for CSA measurements resulted in interclass correlation coefficients of 0.986 and 0.982, respectively ( P < .001), indicating excellent agreement. Conclusion: The CSA did not appear to be a significant predictor of patient-reported outcomes after arthroscopic repair of atraumatic full-thickness RCTs.

AbstractBackgroundExcessive stiffness of lower limb muscles is associated with sports injuries. Therefore, the identification of a reliable measurement of the shear elastic modulus of various ankle plantar flexion muscles is required to evaluate lower leg sports injuries. This study investigated the reliable measurement of the shear elastic modulus of the ankle plantar flexion muscles at different ankle positions.MethodsTwenty‐three healthy young men (25.3 ± 3.6 years, 172.9 ± 5.0 cm, 67.2 ± 7.2 kg) participated in this study. The shear elastic moduli of the ankle plantar flexion muscles including the lateral gastrocnemius, medial gastrocnemius, soleus, peroneus longus, peroneus brevis, flexor hallucis longus, flexor digitorum longus and tibialis posterior were measured using ultrasonic shear wave elastography at 0, 10 and 20° dorsiflexion.ResultsThe reliability of the shear elastic modulus measurements for each ankle position was assessed. The results showed that the interday reliability of the measurements differed between ankle positions and that the reliability of the shear elastic modulus measurements at 20° dorsiflexion was higher than that at 10° or 0°.ConclusionOur results suggest that measurements at 20° dorsiflexion may provide a more reliable measurement of the shear elastic modulus of ankle plantar flexion muscles.
A Perspective on Middle-Aged and Older Men With Functional Hypogonadism: Focus on Holistic Management
Authors: Grossmann Mathis , Matsumoto Alvin M. 
Published: April 2017

Abstract

Context:
Middle-aged and older men (≥50 years), especially those who are obese and suffer from comorbidities, not uncommonly present with clinical features consistent with androgen deficiency and modestly reduced testosterone levels. Commonly, such men do not demonstrate anatomical hypothalamic–pituitary–testicular axis pathology but have functional hypogonadism that is potentially reversible.

Evidence Acquisition:
Literature review from 1970 to October 2016.

Evidence Synthesis:
Although definitive randomized controlled trials are lacking, evidence suggests that in such men, lifestyle measures to achieve weight loss and optimization of comorbidities, including discontinuation of offending medications, lead to clinical improvement and a modest increase in testosterone. Also, androgen deficiency–like symptoms and end-organ deficits respond to targeted treatments (such as phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors for erectile dysfunction) without evidence that hypogonadal men are refractory. Unfortunately, lifestyle interventions remain difficult and may be insufficient even if successful. Testosterone therapy should be considered primarily for men who have significant clinical features of androgen deficiency and unequivocally low testosterone levels. Testosterone should be initiated either concomitantly with a trial of lifestyle measures, or after such a trial fails, after a tailored diagnostic work-up, exclusion of contraindications, and appropriate counseling.

Conclusions:
There is modest evidence that functional hypogonadism responds to lifestyle measures and optimization of comorbidities. If achievable, these interventions may have demonstrable health benefits beyond the potential for increasing testosterone levels. Therefore, treatment of underlying causes of functional hypogonadism and of symptoms should be used either as an initial or adjunctive approach to testosterone therapy.
Illustrating The Vacuum: Carnivalesque drawing and the delimitation of communities
Authors: Ross Duncan 
Published: April 2017

Abstract
The Vacuum was a free newspaper published in Belfast, Northern Ireland between 2003 and 2014. This article makes reference to illustrations produced by the author and his fellow contributors in order to explore a range of ideas connected to emergent public art practices. The time frame of The Vacuum’s circulation provides the article with critical frameworks drawn from contemporaneous discourse on social engagement and participation. The concepts of ‘dialogical aesthetics’, a ‘carnivalesque’ mode of humour and a ‘paradigm of the page’ are developed in relation to The Vacuum as a whole, to the illustrations that formed one of its defining features and to the author’s experience of community and public art commissions.

Inclusive illustration: The importance of educating impoverished and incarcerated communities
Authors: Darling Christopher C. 
Published: April 2017

Abstract
This study examines the effects of providing illustration education and public art opportunities to underprivileged and under-represented communities, particularly those transitioning from incarceration. Nine individuals from the Cuyahoga Correctional Facility in Cleveland, Ohio, met in a classroom twice a week over the course of two months at the North Star Reintegration and Resource Centre in Cleveland to learn about illustration and collaboratively produce a large-scale mural in the East Cleveland neighbourhood. Illustration education throughout the twentieth century has primarily focused on and been accessible to those capable of affording education. While art and art therapy prove to be valuable, therapeutic and rehabilitative tools for those transitioning from incarceration, illustration training and education provide occupational trade skills in a focused area of interest for many underprivileged individuals. This research examines the impact of poverty on education and highlights the need for the field of illustration to diversify and become more inclusive.

Abstract: Introduction: Efficient communication, conflict management and cooperation are the key factors of a successful patient care. Aim: This study is part of an international comparative research. The aim of this study is to unfold conflicts among healthcare workers. Method: 73 healthcare workers were interviewed using a standardized interview protocol. The in-person interviews used the critical incident method. 30 interviews (15 doctors, 15 nurses) were analysed with the Atlas.ti 7 content analysis software. The sources, types, effects of conflicts and conflict management strategies were investigated. Results: The content analysis unfolded the specificities of conflicts in healthcare based on personal experiences. Organizational hierarchy was a substantial source of conflict, especially among physicians, which originates from implicit rules. As a result of the avoiding conflict management the conflicts remain partly unresolved which has negative individual and group effect. Conclusions: Our conceptual framework helps to develop a proper intervention specific to healthcare. Orv. Hetil., 2017, 158(16), 625–632.

Published: April 2017

Background: Dementia is one of the major causes of disability and dependency among older people worldwide. Dementia can no longer be neglected but should be considered as a public health priority especially by those who are involved in framing and implementing various health policies and programmes. Community based screening to detect dementia in undiagnosed individuals is emerging as a promising health promotion strategy. Methods: The present study was an exploratory cross sectional community based study, conducted in rural area of Jammu region in the month of July and August 2016 among all individual aged 60 years or more who were willing to participate in the study. A brief informant-based screening questionnaire, namely the Symptoms of Early Dementia-11 Questionnaire (SED-11Q) for screening of early dementia was used. Results: A total of 129 individuals participated in the study and out of them 18 persons were categorised to be suffering from early dementia using SED-11Q with overall prevalence rate of 13.95%. Dementia was more common among females as compared to males and prevalence of dementia was highest among people belonging to lowermiddle and middle socioeconomic classes. Conclusions: The SED-11Q categorised nearly 13.95% asymptomatic individuals to be suffering from dementia which is an alarming figure considering it as a disease which affects quality of life and contributes to morbidity of affected individuals.

<p>Over dose using of herbicides is one of the major problems in crops and horticulture productions. Human food safety and economical production of agricultural products are the main target of new agronomy and plant scientists. Integrative management is one of the new programs for reducing herbicide doses in agriculture. This program includes many physiological and physicochemical methods for controlling herbicide uses in farms and orchards. This article explain some of these methods such as using surfactants, water quality in spraying, using magnetic fields, controlling the nitrogen content of soil, using a suitable formulation and powerful cultivars and genotypes in agriculture and the effects of this reduction in herbicide doses on plants behavior and weeds controlling. According to this method integrative management can be beneficial in crop production and farmers must be using of this management method in their farms. </p>
You Don't Know Pumps: Myths and Truths about ESP Operation in High-Gas Environments
Authors: Dowling Michael A. 
Published: April 2017

Abstract
ESP's are a technology that was adapted from water pumping in order to continue to produce high-rate, high-water cut wells with economic results. Using centrifugal pumps in wells that produce hydrocarbons creates the possibility, perhaps the inevitability, of centrifugal pumps that need to produce multiphase fluid, and originally this was a common limitation for their use. Gradually, the industry developed solutions to increase the capacity for ESP's to work in the presence of gas through technology (static gas separators, dynamic gas separators, and most recently multi-phase pump stages) and through simulations of ESP's in high-gas conditions to understand their behavior.
The result is a set of historical concepts on the performance and behavior of ESP's with high-gas that gets passed down among generations of engineers who work for suppliers and producing companies. This paper's premise is that many of the beliefs about how ESP's operate in high-gas environments are mythological. They are learned early by engineers in the industry and accepted as true and unquestioned, even when presented with direct evidence that contradicts them. This paper will use conflicting examples to demonstrate that behavior is much more complex and unpredictable than previously considered.
Perenco is an independent oil company whose strategy is to reinject life into mature oil assets. ESP's are a central part of Perenco's business because they offer an opportunity to boost flow rate for older wells with decreased reservoir pressure and high water cuts. Converting high-gas wells to ESP's has resulted in the opportunities for the examples in this paper.
A Tough, Truly Multiphase Downhole Pump for Unconventional Wells

Published: April 2017

Abstract
The V-Pump is a radically new type of pump which has proven to deliver superior performance compared to conventional ESPs in conventional and unconventional wells.
Unconventional wells producing at 75+% GVF (based on daily production figures), can often slug liquid followed by very high GVF fluid such that the pump must be capable of handling a very wide, indeed extreme range of fluid conditions. Different wells seem to cause different slug conditions, possibly due to the geometry of the horizontal section and hydraulic fracture network. The V-Pump has been able to work effectively throughout the GVF extremes which occur on such wells. The V-Pump has sand erosion resistance very much higher than previous pump technologies.The V-Pump is expected to be an outstanding pump for high viscosity fluids, with testing in flow loop up to 13,000cP, but has still not been deployed in a high viscosity well, expected soon.It is designed and flow loop tested as a SAGD pump.The V-Pump has operated with high percentage of sand both in flow loops and producing wells; the V-Pump can be used in unconventional wells with high sand concentration and high GVF.
The development of this pump has taken a few years with a great deal of flow loop testing and field trial testing. This paper mentions some of the development work, flow loop testing, and case studies; the difficulties of replicating harsh field conditions in pump test flow loops, both the sand erosion loop and the multiphase loop.
Júlio Ribeiro: leitura sobre a trajetória de um intelectual maçom e protestante na cidade de Sorocaba na segunda metade do século XIX
Authors: Silva Ivanilson Bezerra 
Published: April 2017

Este trabalho tem como objetivo analisar a trajetória de Júlio Ribeiro, intelectual maçom e presbiteriano, na segunda metade do século XIX, mostrando que tal personagem, juntamente com outros atores sociais, tinha como proposta a modernização de sua cidade. Verifica-se que, para atingir essa meta, foram utilizadas as mais variadas estratégias para difundir a ideologia da elite sorocabana, sendo um dos principais meios a imprensa jornalística. Com base no conceito de campo de Bourdieu (2004a), observa-se que a cidade de Sorocaba no fim do século XIX se configurava como um espaço social de poder construído por meio das relações entre diversos agentes sociais pertencentes aos diversos campos que compunham a dinâmica urbana: político, religioso, social e educacional. Nos campos político e religioso alguns agentes sociais eram oriundos da maçonaria e do presbiterianismo e, para solidificar seu projeto político, valeram-se de vários estratagemas: organização de instituições escolares (maçônicas e protestantes), uso da imprensa jornalística, inserção no campo político, modernização da cidade, libertação de escravos, industrialização, entre outros.
Comércio popular e representações sociais: o caso do Shopping do Porto em Porto Alegre
Authors: Soilo Andressa Nunes , Marques Juliana , Cavedon Neusa Rolita 
Published: April 2017

Resumo Este artigo visa verificar como as representações sociais construídas pelos diferentes segmentos da sociedade em relação aos camelôs e lojistas são apropriadas pelos comerciantes populares transferidos das ruas há cerca de um ano para o espaço organizacional Shopping do Porto. As teorizações sobre representações de Moscovici sustentam as análises realizadas, fornecendo subsídios para a interpretação de um espaço de comercialização de produtos populares no Centro de Porto Alegre. Realizamos um estudo etnográfico iniciado em março de 2009 e ainda em andamento. As técnicas da observação sistemática, de entrevistas e observação participante permitiram a obtenção de dados registrados nos diários de campo. Os resultados apontam para uma representação de que a condição de camelô independe do fato do proprietário da banca vender seus produtos na rua ou em um espaço fechado; outra representação desnudada é a de lojista, baseada na visão imputada pelo Poder Público.

Authors: Veiga Maurício Biscaia 
Published: April 2017

Este artigo propõe-se a discutir questões referentes à construção da história e da identidade cultural de uma cidade por meio da arquitetura e do patrimônio cultural, os quais remetem ao passado e à memória, mas de forma a supervalorizar características de um determinado grupo étnico ou cultural. Utilizam-se como objeto de estudo as cidades catarinenses colonizadas por imigrantes alemães, especialmente Blumenau e Joinville, que passaram por esse processo para atender a necessidades mercadológicas e para serem inseridas em roteiros turísticos, culminando na implantação de uma falsa arquitetura típica: o neoenxaimel.

NEO MODERNISME ISLAM INDONESIA: WACANA KEISLAMAN DAN KEBANGSAAN NURCHOLISH MADJID
Authors: - Suryani 
Published: April 2017

Neo modernism emerged as a critical discourse face the phenomenon of modernist Islamic thought that emphasizes reason and ratio in view of the existence of religion in a struggle and debate ideas discourse on Islam and society. In the neo modernism discourse, the phenomenon of religious exclusivity becomes a very important study. Exclusive theology is used by some hard-line Islamic groups to judge other religions or other Islamic groups that are not inline with Islam that they believe to be the real truth. Neo modernism evolved to respons this religious exclusivity and the religious inclusivity comes to make a new discourse on Islam which has the main idea of an understanding of the universal message delivered by God not only to one particular religion but also to other religions in the scriptures each. The efforts to avoid subjectivity of religion and promote objectivity in the social sphere in Nurcholish Madjid’s thought will not reduce the religious existence, but will make it more effective and elegant can also be easily accepted by modern society without suspicion.
