Imagens do Sul: o documentário contemporâneo na Argentina e Brasil
Authors: Amado Ana , Mourão Maria Dora Genis 
Published: December 2016

Partindo do encontro (ou desencontro) entre o subjetivo e o público, articulação comum em boa parte da produção documental, propomos refletir sobre filmes argentinos e brasileiros que focalizam passagens da História de forte impacto coletivo e, por isso, capazes de produzir mudanças nas subjetividades. O recorte temático e conceitual se dará no eixo da História e da memória com foco no institucional e político, expressados desde o cotidiano e da experiência de indivíduos.
Nos filmes abordados personagens singulares interrogam o passado de maneira pessoal. A montagem ressignifica essas imagens no tempo presente e certifica esse recurso como uma das artes temporais que o documentário aperfeiçoou.

Recurrent iridocyclitis due to cotton fiber in anterior chamber
Authors: Joshi Rajesh S 
Published: December 2016

Background: Cotton is commonly used during ophthalmic surgical procedure. Cotton fibers may get attracted to the instruments due to electrostatic forces and become adhered to the surface. With the introduction of these instruments during the surgical procedure cotton fiber may get entry into the eye. In the literature they have been infrequently reported due to insignificant effect on the ocular structures. We present a case of recurrent iridocyclitis due to cotton fiber in the anterior chamber. Patient was relived of his symptoms after removal. Case: A 78-year-old male presented with pain, redness and blurring of right eye vision since last six months. The patient had undergone phacoemulsification with implantation of hydrophilic intraocular lens (IOL) six years earlier. Postoperative follow up was uneventful from his records till last 6 months. Slit-lamp examination revealed a cotton fiber in the anterior chamber touching the endothelium. Keratic precipitates were seen on the endothelium. Removal of the cotton fiber resulted in subsidence of inflammation. Conclusion: We recommend use of plastic eye and trolley drapes, lint free instrument wipes and use of needle cap to support the globe during creation of side port while performing phacoemulsification instead of cotton buds to avoid entry of cotton fiber into the anterior chamber.

Published: December 2016

Background: Intravitreal bevacizumab has been shown to be an effective treatment of diabetic macular edema. Objective: To assess the anatomical and visual outcome of intravitrealbevacizumab (Avastin) in patients of diabetic macular edema. Materials and methods: 52 eyes of 33 patients with diabetic retinopathy with CSME were included in this study. Detailed ophthalmic examination, including best-corrected visual acuity(BCVA), stereoscopic biomicroscopy, and retinal thickness measurement by Optical coherence tomography (OCT), was done at baseline and at each follow- up visit. All patients were treated with 0.05 mL intravitreal injection containing 1.25 mg of bevacizumab and repeat injection was given in cases of recurrent/persistent subretinal or intraretinal fluid shown by OCT and deterioration of BCVA. Results: All patients completed 6 months of follow-up with mean number of 2.78 intravitreal injections per eye.The mean BCVA at baseline was 0.80 log MAR, with significant changes 0.68 (p=0.012), 0.63 (p=<0.001) and 0.60 log MAR (p=<0.001) at 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months respectively. Final BCVA analysis demonstrated that 25 eyes (48.07%) remained stable and 22 (42.30%) improved ≥2 lines on BCVA. The mean central retinal thickness was 449.03 μm at baseline and it decreased significantly to 410.09 (p<0.001),345.76(p<0.001), 344.55(p<0.001) and 326.51(p<0.001) at 1st day, 6 weeks, 3 months and 6 months post injection, respectively. Mean macular volume changed significantly from baseline of 10.77 μm to 10.33μm (p<0.001) 8.97 (p<0.001), 8.82 (p<0.001), 8.95 (p<0.001) at 1st day, 6 weeks, 3 months and 6 months post injection respectively. Conclusion: Intravitreal bevacizumab injection resulted in significant improvement in BCVA, central retinal thickness and total macular volume in patients with diabetic retinopathy with CSME, and this beneficial effect is maximum at 6 weeks. Also, slight reduction in these parameters at 3 month follow up suggests that visual improvement and stable macular thickness can be maintained longer with injection frequency of probably 6-12 weeks.

Challenges with starting vitreoretinal services in the developing world
Authors: Amissah-Arthur Kwesi Nyan 
Published: December 2016

Service development and improvement within ophthalmology has taken a whole new dimension with the constant improvement of equipment, and the development of therapies that significantly improve the management of our patients and as such alters their visual prognosis for the better. This improvement and increased reliance on both diagnostic and surgical equipment with the concomitant use of intravitreal therapies has arguably been felt more in the field of retinal diseases.

Death in the Afternoon: The Croke Park Massacre, 21 November 1920
Authors: Leeson David 
Published: December 2016

21 November 1920 was the first “Bloody Sunday” in modern Irish history. On that Sunday afternoon, fourteen people were killed or fatally wounded when police fired into the crowd at a Gaelic football match in Dublin’s Croke Park. The causes of the Croke Park massacre have been debated ever since. Some say the massacre was a reprisal for the killing and wounding of soldiers and police by Irish Republican Army assassination squads earlier that morning. The police were looking to revenge their dead and wounded comrades and opened fire on the crowd without provocation. Others disagree: the plan, they say, was merely to stop the match and search the crowd. When the security forces arrived at the park, they came under fire from insurgents in the street; the police fired back in self-defense, and innocent bystanders were killed and wounded, either in the gun battle, or the stampede that followed. More than eighty years later, new documents may finally resolve the debate over the Croke Park massacre. In the days after Bloody Sunday, two military courts of inquiry were held: their proceedings were held back by the government, but have now been released at last. When these proceedings are combined with evidence from other contemporary sources, the causes of the massacre become clear. The police did not go to Croke Park seeking revenge: they really were planning to round up the crowd, and search for weapons and wanted men. Once they came to the park, however, a few shots were firednot by rebel pickets but by the police themselves. Spectators panicked and fled. Police panicked and started shooting indiscriminately. Their officers restored order after less than two minutes but they were too late. Nine people were dead, another five were dying, and dozens more had been injured.
La vie agonistique xanthienne : nouvel apport épigraphique (première partie)
Authors: Baker Patrick , Thériault Gaétan 
Published: December 2016

Si l’on fait exception du catalogue agonistique des Rômaia et du monument commémorant la carrière de l’athlète xanthien Titus Flavius Hermogénès, tous deux découverts au Létôon, sur le territoire de Xanthos, la vie agonistique de la cité et de son sanctuaire s’avère mal connue. Les indications demeurent minces à cet effet, tant dans les inscriptions d’époque impériale publiées par A. Balland que dans celles figurant dans la collection des Tituli Asiae Minoris.
Pourtant, la cité n’a pas échappé à la prolifération des concours si caractéristiques des cités grecques de l’Asie Mineure hellénistique et, a fortiori, impériale. Là comme ailleurs, les agônes, qu’ils fussent panhelléniques ou locaux, stéphanites ou thématites, étaient une affaire sérieuse. Les nouvelles découvertes épigraphiques xanthiennes ont enrichi notablement ce dossier. Ce premier article d’une série de deux est l’occasion de présenter trois nouveaux textes relatifs à deux concours. Le premier date de 152/ 3 p. C. et célèbre les exploits d’un participant ou d’un vainqueur dans un agôn durant une panégyrie célébrée au sanctuaire et désignée sous le nom de Létôa Traianeia Hadrianeia Antôneia. Les deux autres concernent le concours tétraétérique des Antipatreia, déjà connu par l’inscription TAM II, 1, 307 et qualifié de κοινὸς Λυκίων. L’un et l’autre font désormais connaître le fondateur de l’agôn et un vainqueur dans l’épreuve du pancrace pour hommes, M. Aur. Tlèpolémos.
THE PREFERENTIAL TIDAL STRIPPING OF DARK MATTER VERSUS STARS IN GALAXIES
Authors: Smith Rory , Choi Hoseung , Lee Jaehyun , Rhee Jinsu , Sanchez-Janssen Ruben , Yi Sukyoung K. 
Published: December 2016

ABSTRACT
Using high-resolution hydrodynamical cosmological simulations, we conduct a comprehensive study of how tidal stripping removes dark matter and stars from galaxies. We find that dark matter is always stripped far more significantly than the stars—galaxies that lose ∼80% of their dark matter, typically lose only 10% of their stars. This is because the dark matter halo is initially much more extended than the stars. As such, we find that the stellar-to-halo size-ratio (measured using r
eff/r
vir) is a key parameter controlling the relative amounts of dark matter and stellar stripping. We use simple fitting formulae to measure the relation between the fraction of bound dark matter and the fraction of bound stars. We measure a negligible dependence on cluster mass or galaxy mass. Therefore, these formulae have general applicability in cosmological simulations, and are ideal to improve stellar stripping recipes in semi-analytical models, and/or to estimate the impact that tidal stripping would have on galaxies when only their halo mass evolution is known.
Epigenetic regulation in Autism spectrum disorder
Authors: Chaudhury Sraboni 
Published: December 2016

AbstractAutism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by an impaired social communication skill and often results in repetitive, stereotyped behavior which is observed in children during the first few years of life. Other characteristic of this disorder includes language disabilities, difficulties in sensory integration, lack of reciprocal interactions and in some cases, cognitive delays. One percentage of the general population is affected by ASD and is four times more common in boys than girls. There are hundreds of genes, which has been identified to be associated with ASD etiology. However it remains difficult to comprehend our understanding in defining the genetic architecture necessary for complete exposition of its pathophysiology. Seeing the complexity of the disease, it is important to adopt a multidisciplinary approach which should not only focus on the “genetics” of autism but also on epigenetics, transcriptomics, immune system disruption and environmental factors that could all impact the pathogenesis of the disease. As environmental factors also play a key role in regulating the trigger of ASD, the role of chromatin remodeling and DNA methylation has started to emerge. Such epigenetic modifications directly link molecular regulatory pathways and environmental factors, which might be able to explain some aspects of complex disorders like ASD. The present review will focus on the role of epigenetic regulation in defining the underlying cause for ASD.

The Bifurcation Diagram of Cubic Polynomial Vector Fields on CP1
Authors: Rousseau C. 
Published: December 2016

AbstractIn this paper we give the bifurcation diagram of the family of cubic vector fields z=, depending on the values of . The bifurcation diagram is in ℝ 4, but its conic structure allows describing it for parameter values in . There are two open simply connected regions of structurally stable vector fields separated by surfaces corresponding to bifurcations of homoclinic connections between two separatrices of the pole at infinity. These branch from the codimension 2 curve of double singular points. We also explain the bifurcation of homoclinic connection in terms of the description of Douady and Sentenac of polynomial vector fields.
Fourth-Year Medical School Course Load and Success as a Medical Intern
Authors: Richards Christopher J. , Mukamal Kenneth J. , DeMelo Nikki , Smith C. Christopher 
Published: December 2016

ABSTRACT

Background
The fourth year of medical school has come under recent scrutiny for its lack of structure, cost- and time-effectiveness, and quality of education it provides. Some have advocated for increasing clinical burden in the fourth year, while others have suggested it be abolished.

Objective
To assess the relationship between fourth-year course load and success during internship.

Methods
We reviewed transcripts of 78 internal medicine interns from 2011–2013 and compared the number of intensive courses (defined as subinternships, intensive care, surgical clerkships, and emergency medicine rotations) with multi-source performance evaluations from the internship. We assessed relative risk (RR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of achieving excellent scores according to the number of intensive courses taken, using generalized estimating equations, adjusting for demographics, US Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) Step 1 board scores, and other measures of medical school performance.

Results
For each additional intensive course taken, the RR of obtaining an excellent score per intensive course was 1.05 (95% CI 1.03–1.07, P &lt; .001), whereas the RR per nonintensive course taken was 0.99 (95% CI 0.98–1.00, P = .03). An association of intensive course work with increased risk of excellent performance was seen across multiple clinical competencies, including medical knowledge (RR 1.08, 95% CI 1.04–1.11); patient care (RR 1.07, 95% CI 1.04–1.10); and practice-based learning (RR 1.05, 95% CI 1.03–1.09).

Conclusions
For this single institution's cohort of medical interns, increased exposure to intensive course work during the fourth year of medical school was associated with better clinical evaluations during internship.
Examining the Functioning and Reliability of the Family Medicine Milestones
Authors: Peabody Michael R. , O'Neill Thomas R. , Peterson Lars E. 
Published: December 2016

ABSTRACT

Background
The Family Medicine (FM) Milestones are a framework designed to assess development of residents in key dimensions of physician competency. Residency programs use the milestones in semiannual reviews of resident performance from entry toward graduation.

Objective
To examine the functioning and reliability of the FM Milestones and to determine whether they measure the amount of a latent trait (eg, knowledge or ability) possessed by a resident or simply indicate where a resident falls along the training sequence.

Methods
This study utilized the Rasch Partial Credit model to examine academic year 2014–2015 ratings for 10 563 residents from 476 residency programs (postgraduate year [PGY] 1 = 3639; PGY-2 = 3562; PGY-3 = 3351; PGY-4 = 11).

Results
Reliability was exceptionally high at 0.99. Mean scores were 3.2 (SD = 1.3) for PGY-1; 5.0 (SD = 1.3) for PGY-2; 6.7 (SD = 1.2) for PGY-3; and 7.4 (SD = 1.0) for PGY-4. Keyform analysis showed a rating on 1 item was likely to be similar for all other items.

Conclusions
Our findings suggest that FM Milestones seem to largely function as intended. Lack of spread in item difficulty and lack of variation in category probabilities show that FM Milestones do not measure the amount of a latent trait possessed by a resident, but rather describe where a resident falls along the training sequence. High reliability indicates residents are being rated in a stable manner as they progress through residency, and individual residents deviating from this rating structure warrant consideration by program leaders.
Variability of winter and summer surface ozone in Mexico City on the intraseasonal timescale
Authors: Barrett Bradford S. , Raga Graciela B. 
Published: December 2016

Abstract. Surface ozone concentrations in Mexico City frequently exceed the Mexican standard and have proven difficult to forecast due to changes in meteorological conditions at its tropical location. The Madden–Julian Oscillation (MJO) is largely responsible for intraseasonal variability in the tropics. Circulation patterns in the lower and upper troposphere and precipitation are associated with the oscillation as it progresses eastward around the planet. It is typically described by phases (labeled 1 through 8), which correspond to the broad longitudinal location of the active component of the oscillation with enhanced precipitation. In this study we evaluate the intraseasonal variability of winter and summer surface ozone concentrations in Mexico City, which was investigated over the period 1986–2014 to determine if there is a modulation by the MJO that would aid in the forecast of high-pollution episodes. Over 1 000 000 hourly observations of surface ozone from five stations around the metropolitan area were standardized and then binned by active phase of the MJO, with phase determined using the real-time multivariate MJO index. Highest winter ozone concentrations were found in Mexico City on days when the MJO was active and in phase 2 (over the Indian Ocean), and highest summer ozone concentrations were found on days when the MJO was active and in phase 6 (over the western Pacific Ocean). Lowest winter ozone concentrations were found during active MJO phase 8 (over the eastern Pacific Ocean), and lowest summer ozone concentrations were found during active MJO phase 1 (over the Atlantic Ocean). Anomalies of reanalysis-based cloud cover and UV-B radiation supported the observed variability in surface ozone in both summer and winter: MJO phases with highest ozone concentration had largest positive UV-B radiation anomalies and lowest cloud-cover fraction, while phases with lowest ozone concentration had largest negative UV-B radiation anomalies and highest cloud-cover fraction. Furthermore, geopotential height anomalies at 250 hPa favoring reduced cloudiness, and thus elevated surface ozone, were found in both seasons during MJO phases with above-normal ozone concentrations. Similar height anomalies at 250 hPa favoring enhanced cloudiness, and thus reduced surface ozone, were found in both seasons during MJO phases with below-normal ozone concentrations. These anomalies confirm a physical pathway for MJO modulation of surface ozone via modulation of the upper troposphere.
Hermann Karsten (1817–1908): a German naturalist in the Neotropics and the significance of his paleovertebrate collection
Authors: Carrillo-Briceño Jorge Domingo , Amson Eli , Zurita Alfredo , Sánchez-Villagra Marcelo Ricardo 
Published: December 2016

Abstract. During the mid-19th century, the German naturalist Hermann Karsten conducted a 12-year exploration (1844–1856) in the territories of Ecuador, New Granada (now Colombia) and Venezuela, allowing him to produce important botanic, geographic and geologic descriptions with valuable information that permits us to refer to him as a pioneer in many of these topics. With his return to Europe, abundant geological, paleontological and living plant specimens were brought and housed in European museums and botanical gardens. The Karsten collection included an important invertebrate collection from the Cretaceous of the Andes of Colombia and Venezuela, which was studied and published by himself and the renowned German paleontologist Leopold von Buch, filling a large void in the knowledge about ancients faunas. H. Karsten's vertebrate collection was never illustrated or subjected to a detailed taxonomic study, being mentioned in scientific publications in a repetitive manner and with incorrect taxonomic and provenance information. More than 160 years after they were collected, we carried out a taxonomic revision of all H. Karsten's vertebrate specimens from Colombia and Venezuela, which are housed in the Museum of Natural History in Berlin. These specimens are represented by cranial and postcranial elements of megafauna, which include Megatheriidae, Mylodontidae and Glyptodontidae (Xenarthra), Toxodontidae (Notoungulata), Gomphotheriidae (Proboscidea), and many other indeterminate mammal remains. This revision is intended to clarify the taxonomy and provenance of the specimens, emphasizing the historical importance of this fossil collection and its significance for the paleontology of the region.
The Effect of the Reciprocal Teaching Model on Developing Jordanian Students' Reading Comprehension at Mutah University
Authors: AlSaraireh Mohammad Yousef Ahmad , Hamid Ku Mohd Nabil Ku 
Published: December 2016

The aim of this study is to examine the impact of using the reciprocal teaching model on Jordanians’ first year students at Mutah University in the academic year 2015/2016. 176 participants took part and were arbitrarily selected and divided into two gender mixed groups; the experimental group which was exposed to the reciprocal teaching model (RT), and the control group which was taught using the traditional method (TM). A total of fourteen independent sample T-tests and paired samples T-tests were used for the purpose of comparing and analysing the scores of the pre-tests and the post-tests, and with the intention to pinpoint the effect of using RT as well as to measure the extent of such effect on the development of the students’ reading comprehension skills. Through the analysis of the results and in line with the two questions of this study, it has emerged that the use of the RT model has a positive effect on the first year students’ reading comprehension achievement in the experimental group; a fact that is reflected in the significant statistical difference when compared to the reading comprehension achievement of the students from the control group taught using the TM. It has also emerged that although the male students’ scores are better than the scores attained by the female students, the use of the RT remains of great benefits for both; male and female students.
