A descriptive analysis of bullying in prison: a study of male offenders in Estonia
Authors: Kõiv Kristi 
Published: October 2016

Võitlus kiusamisega mistahes kontekstis (k.a vangla) saab alguse selle olemuse väljaselgitamisest. Selleks püstitati kaks eesmärki: 1) kirjeldada vanglakiusamise olemust ja ulatust, lähtudes kahest aspektist – teiste kinnipeetavate kiusamine ja kiusamise ohvriks langemine, ning 2) võrrelda kiusajate, ohvrite, kiusajate/ohvrite ja kiusamisega mitteseotud kinnipeetavate gruppide personaalseid ja käitumuslikke karakteristikuid ning reaktsioone kiusamisele ühe Eesti meestevangla näitel. Uuritavateks oli 110 täiskasvanud meessoost kinnipeetavat, kes täitsid enesekohase ankeedi DIPC-R (Ireland, 2002a), millega mõõdetakse vanglakiusamisele iseloomulikku käitumist. Tulemused näitavad, et selles kinnipidamisasutuses oli prevaleerivaks kiusamisliigiks kaudne kiusamine. Uuringust nähtub, et 77% uuritud kinnipeetavatest oli seotud kiusamisega kas kiusaja/ohvri (43%), ohvri (20%) või kiusaja (14%) staatuses, mis viitab vanglakiusamise laiaulatuslikkusele. Uurimisandmed võimaldavad võrrelda kiusamisega seotud uuritavate gruppide personaalseid ja käitumuslikke karakteristikuid ning reaktsioone kiusamisele, kõrvutades neid varasemate tulemustega samas valdkonnas.
Summary
An evidence-based algorithm for the management of common peroneal nerve injury associated with traumatic knee dislocation
Authors: Samson Deepak , Ng Chye Yew , Power Dominic 
Published: October 2016

Traumatic knee dislocation is a complex ligamentous injury that may be associated with simultaneous vascular and neurological injury. Although orthopaedic surgeons may consider CPN exploration at the time of ligament reconstruction, there is no standardised approach to the management of this complex and debilitating complication. This review focusses on published evidence of the outcomes of common peroneal nerve (CPN) injuries associated with knee dislocation, and proposes an algorithm for the management.

Abstract

OBJECTIVES
In this study we aimed to identify novel metabolomic biomarkers suitable for improved diagnosis of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).

METHODS
We prospectively recruited 887 individuals consisting of HFrEF patients with either ischemic (ICMP, n = 257) or nonischemic cardiomyopathy (NICMP, n = 269), healthy controls (n = 327), and patients with pulmonary diseases (n = 34). A single-center identification (n = 238) was followed by a multicenter confirmation study (n = 649). Plasma samples from the single-center study were subjected to metabolite profiling analysis to identify metabolomic features with potential as HFrEF biomarkers. A dedicated analytical protocol was developed for the routine analysis of selected metabolic features in the multicenter cohort.

RESULTS
In the single-center study, 92 of 181 metabolomic features with known chemical identity (51%) were significantly changed in HFrEF patients compared to healthy controls (P &lt;0.05). Three specific metabolomic features belonging to the lipid classes of sphingomyelins, triglycerides, and phosphatidylcholines were selected as the cardiac lipid panel (CLP) and analyzed in the multicenter study using the dedicated analytical protocol. The combination of the CLP with N-terminal pro–B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) distinguished HFrEF patients from healthy controls with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.97 (sensitivity 80.2%, specificity 97.6%) and was significantly superior compared to NT-proBNP alone (AUC = 0.93, sensitivity 81.7%, specificity 88.1%, P &lt;0.001), even in the subgroups with mildly reduced left ventricular EF (0.94 vs 0.87; P &lt;0.001) and asymptomatic patients (0.95 vs 0.91; P &lt;0.05).

CONCLUSIONS
The new metabolomic biomarker panel has the potential to improve HFrEF detection, even in mild and asymptomatic stages. The observed changes further indicate lipid alterations in the setting of HFrEF.

AbstractBACKGROUNDSomatostatin is a component of the well-known insulin-like growth factor-1/growth hormone (GH) longevity axis. There is observational evidence that increased GH is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). We aimed to investigate the potential association of plasma N-terminal fragment prosomatostatin (NT-proSST) with incident CVD and all-cause mortality in apparently healthy adults.METHODSWe studied 8134 participants without history of CVD (aged 28–75 years; women, 52.6%) from the Prevention of Renal and Vascular End-stage Disease (PREVEND) study in Groningen, the Netherlands. Plasma NT-proSST was measured in baseline samples. Outcomes were incidence of CVD and all-cause mortality.RESULTSIn cross-sectional analyses, NT-proSST [mean (SD), 384.0 (169.3) pmol/L] was positively associated with male sex and age (both P &lt; 0.001). During a median follow-up of 10.5 (Q1-Q3: 9.9–10.8) years, 708 (8.7%) participants developed CVD and 517 (6.4%) participants died. In univariable analyses, NT-proSST was associated with an increased risk of incident CVD and all-cause mortality (both P &lt; 0.001). In multivariable analyses, these associations were independent of the Framingham risk factors, with hazard ratios (95% CI) per doubling of NT-proSST of 1.17 (1.03–1.34; P = 0.02) for incident CVD and of 1.28 (1.09–1.49; P = 0.002) for all-cause mortality. Addition of NT-proSST to the updated Framingham Risk Score improved reclassification (integrated discrimination improvement (P &lt; 0.001); net reclassification improvement was 2.5% (P = 0.04)).CONCLUSIONSPlasma NT-proSST is positively associated with increased risk of future CVD and all-cause mortality, partly independent of traditional CVD risk factors. Further research is needed to address the nature of associations.
‘Whose context collapse?’: Ethical clashes in the study of language and social media in context
Authors: Georgakopoulou Alexandra 
Published: October 2016

AbstractThe longstanding tradition of the examination of language and discourse in context has not only spurred the turn to issues of context in language and new media research but it has also led to numerous methodological and analytical deliberations, for instance regarding the roles and nature of digital ethnography and the need for an adaptive, ‘mobile’ sociolinguistics. Such discussions center around social media affordances and constraints of wide distribution, multi-authorship and elusiveness of audiences which are often described with the term ‘context collapse’ (Marwick and boyd 2011; Wesch 2008). In this article, I argue that, however helpful the insights of such studies may have been for linking social media affordances and constraints with users’ communication practices, the ethical questions of where context collapse leaves the language-in-context analysts have far from been addressed. I single out certain key challenges, which I view as ethical clashes, that I experienced in connection with context collapse in my data of the social media circulation of news stories from crisis-stricken Greece. I argue that these ethical clashes are linked with context collapse processes and outcomes on the one hand and sociolinguistic contextual analysis priorities on the other hand. I put forward certain proposals for resolving these clashes arguing for a discipline-based virtue ethics that requires researcher reflexivity and phronesis.
Comparison of Total Least Squares and Least Squares for Four- and Seven-parameter Model Coordinate Transformation
Authors: Wu You , Liu Jun , Ge Hui Yong 
Published: October 2016

AbstractTotal least squares (TLS) is a technique that solves the traditional least squares (LS) problem for an errors-in-variables (EIV) model, in which both the observation vector and the design matrix are contaminated by random errors. Four- and seven-parameter models of coordinate transformation are typical EIV model. To determine which one of TLS and LS is more effective, taking the four- and seven-parameter models of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) coordinate transformation with different coincidence pointsas examples, the relative effectiveness of the two methods was compared through simulation experiments. The results showed that in the EIV model, the errors-in-variables-only (EIVO) model and the errors-in-observations-only (EIOO) model, TLS is slightly inferior to LS in the four-parameter model coordinate transformation, and TLS is equivalent to LS in the seven-parameter model coordinate transformation. Consequently, in the four- and seven-parameter model coordinate transformation, TLS has no obvious advantage over LS.

Plasmonic circuits for manipulating optical information
Authors: Davis Timothy J. , Gómez Daniel E. , Roberts Ann 
Published: October 2016

AbstractSurface plasmons excited by light in metal structures provide a means for manipulating optical energy at the nanoscale. Plasmons are associated with the collective oscillations of conduction electrons in metals and play a role intermediate between photonics and electronics. As such, plasmonic devices have been created that mimic photonic waveguides as well as electrical circuits operating at optical frequencies. We review the plasmon technologies and circuits proposed, modeled, and demonstrated over the past decade that have potential applications in optical computing and optical information processing.
3D Optical Data Storage in Organic Film using Single Photon Absorption
Authors: Christenson Cory W. , Saini Anuj , Singer Kenneth D. 
Published: October 2016

AbstractOptical data storage is being investigated for use in enterprise archival data storage due to its stability, low energy consumption and low total cost of ownership. Here we present results on a method for manufacturing optical discs with dozens of writable layers using polymer coextrusion. This can greatly increase the capacity with low fabrication cost. Data are written by modulating the fluorescence of an organic dye, and exhibits a threshold dependence on the laser power, allowing the bits to be welllocalized in the intended layers. This is a result of the heat generated from the absorbed laser power, and is realizable with a continuouswave laser.We also discuss the lifetime and photostability of the dyes. These combined results promise a media that is lower in cost and higher in capacity than current commercial options.
Some Remarks on the Stormy Relationship Between the Detectorists and Archaeological Heritage in Poland
Authors: Makowska Agnieszka , Oniszczuk Agnieszka , Sabaciński Marcin 
Published: October 2016

AbstractThe paper discusses the issue of the use of metal detectors in Poland in its legal and practical aspects.
The possession and the use of metal detectors in Poland is legal, but to search for portable monuments a
permit is required. All historical and archaeological finds belong to the State. Detectorists, whose number
is estimated to over 50,000, commonly break the law by conducting illegal searches and by appropriation of
the discovered objects. This paper describes legal and illegal activities of the detectorist community, giving
numerous examples. The authors address the issue of prospects of cooperation between archaeologists
and detectorists and comment on the attempts of the latter to depreciate archaeology and the principles of
modern heritage management, as well as their rivalry with professional researchers. The authors believe
that archaeologists should, therefore, speak and act for archaeology and heritage, instead of accepting the
views of the detectorists. The paper also presents threats to archaeological heritage resulting from illegal
metal detecting, and draws attention to the problem of low social awareness regarding the rules and needs
of archaeological heritage protection in Poland. Solving these issues requires multidimensional activity,
encompassing education and training, as well as the consequent prosecution of crimes against archaeological
heritage.
Extraction of Tc(VII) and Re(VII) on TRU resin
Authors: Guérin Nicolas , Riopel Rémi , Kramer-Tremblay Sheila , de Silva Nimal , Cornett Jack , Dai Xiongxin 
Published: October 2016

Abstract
TRU resin can be used to rapidly and selectively extract Tc(VII) and Re(VII). The retention capacity curves of Tc(VII) and Re(VII) for HNO3, HCl, H2SO4 and H3PO4 solutions were studied and prepared. Tc(VII) and Re(VII) were simultaneously extracted in 2 M H2SO4 and 1.5 M H3PO4 and were effectively separated from Mo(VI) and Ru(III). Tc(VII) and Re(VII) remained strongly bonded to the resin even after washing using a large volume of 2 M H2SO4 at a relatively high flow rate. Also, they were both completely eluted from the resin using 15 mL of near boiling water, an eluent directly compatible for ICP-MS instrument measurements.
A Mounting Support Construction for a Paper-Caché Bust
Authors: Mohideen-Rubitzko Klaus , Baatz Wolfgang , Eyb-Green Sigrid 
Published: October 2016

Abstract
This paper focusses on the causes for damage to a paper-caché bust (Property Staatliches Museum Schwerin, Germany) and strategies for prevention of future damage by the implementation of a new mounting support system. The bust of Friedrich Wilhelm II was created in the late eighteenth century in Ludwigslust (Germany) and is made of up to 40 layers of paper bound with thin starch paste. The bust itself, the base and the connecting cardboard tube were separated, and some parts were severely deformed. In order to re-connect the three main parts, to support fragile areas, to reduce stress induced by uneven weight distribution and to be able to safely move the sculpture, a new mounting support was designed. Being inserted into the inside of the bust, the structure is invisible and does not interfere with the visual effect of the sculpture.
Finite element study into the effects of fiber orientations and stacking sequence on drilling induced delamination in CFRP/Al stack
Authors: Wang Gong-Dong , Melly Stephen Kirwa , Ahmed S.K. Kafi 
Published: October 2016

Abstract
This research work has been aimed at understanding the effects of different fiber orientations and different stacking sequences of composite laminates on their damage during drilling of CFRP/Al stack. Finite element code Abaqus/CAE has been used for the implementation and analysis of the numerical model. Surface-based cohesive behavior available in Abaqus/CAE contact pairs has been used to simulate delamination behavior in the adhesive interfaces. In order to use the Hashin damage criterion (for intra-laminar damage) available in the finite element code, continuum shell elements have been used for laminates. Three stacking sequences each with 24 layers including [0°]24, [0°/90°]12s, and [−45°/90°4/45°2/−45°]3s have been considered for this study. The display group manager available in Abaqus/CAE visualization module enabled the individual access of the damage in each layer. Two layers both at drill entry and at CFRP/Al interface were used to study peel-up and push-down delamination, respectively. Sequence [0°]24 was found to have the largest damaged in both entry and interfaces, while sequence [−45°/90°4/45°2/−45°]3s was found to show better resistance to delamination damage.
Streitregelung im Schatten des Leviathan
Authors: Spittler Gerd 
Published: October 2016

Zusammenfassung
Rechtsethnologen untersuchen vor allem „Verhandlungen“ (direkte Beziehung zwischen den Kontrahenten ) und „einfache Rechtsinstanzen“ (Präsenz eines Richters, aber keine Organisation ). Im Gegensatz zum organisierten „Gericht“ handelt es sich in beiden Fällen um „einfache Streitregelung“. Ihre Merkmale sind: Geringe Ausdifferenzierung der Institution aus der Sozialstruktur und der Rechtsnormen aus den sozialen Normen, Ergebnis des Verfahrens ist kein Urteil, sondern Schlichtung und Kompromiß. Verbreitung und Erfolg werden von Ethnologen durch eine spezifische Rechtskultur oder durch die Sozialstruktur (Dauerhaftigkeit der Beziehung, Kreuzbindungen, Gleichheit ) erklärt. Als zusätzliche Erklärung wird hier die staatliche Gerichtsbarkeit eingeführt. Diese begünstigt die einfache Streitregelung durch: Verbot der gewaltsamen Selbsthilfe, Monopolisierung der schweren Fälle, geringe Kapazität der Gerichte, Einigungszwang durch Drohung eines der Beteiligten mit dem verhaßten Gericht.

Die Dominanz von Rechtsnormen in der Organisation sozialen Verhaltens
Authors: Trotha Trutz von 
Published: October 2016

Zusammenfassung
Ausgehend von der Normtheorie und einer Konfliktperspektive zum Sanktionsproblem, entwickelt der Verfasser die These von der “Dominanz von Rechtsnormen”. Darunter ist zu verstehen das Gewaltmonopol des Staates, also die Rechtsförmigkeit der Anwendung von Zwang, wodurch es gelingt, die “Sprengkraft der Sanktionierung” zu entschärfen. In der konfliktgeladenen Situation der Sanktionierung besorgt Recht die Sicherung des normativen Systems. Die zentralen Mechanismen der Dominanz des Rechts sind Entlastung ( Instanzen mit monopolisierten Befugnissen nehmen uns die Last der Sanktionierung ab) und Entmachtung (unsere Möglichkeiten der Sanktionierung werden definitiv begrenzt). Im weiteren werden zunächst das Konzept der Rationalisierung von Max Weber einbezogen und dann das Verhältnis von Akteuren und Instanzen an strafrechtsnahen Beispielen abgehandelt. Es wird zu zeigen versucht, daß die These von der “Dominanz der Rechtsnormen” ein fruchtbarer Ausgangspunkt ist für eine rechtssoziologische Theorie der sozialen Kontrolle, der Abweichung und des abweichenden Verhaltens.
