Indirect Aerosol Effect Increases CMIP5 Models’ Projected Arctic Warming
Authors: Chylek Petr , Vogelsang Timothy J. , Klett James D. , Hengartner Nicholas , Higdon Dave , Lesins Glen , Dubey Manvendra K. 
Published: December 2015

Abstract
Phase 5 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5) climate models’ projections of the 2014–2100 Arctic warming under radiative forcing from representative concentration pathway 4.5 (RCP4.5) vary from 0.9° to 6.7°C. Climate models with or without a full indirect aerosol effect are both equally successful in reproducing the observed (1900–2014) Arctic warming and its trends. However, the 2014–2100 Arctic warming and the warming trends projected by models that include a full indirect aerosol effect (denoted here as AA models) are significantly higher (mean projected Arctic warming is about 1.5°C higher) than those projected by models without a full indirect aerosol effect (denoted here as NAA models). The suggestion is that, within models including full indirect aerosol effects, those projecting stronger future changes are not necessarily distinguishable historically because any stronger past warming may have been partially offset by stronger historical aerosol cooling. The CMIP5 models that include a full indirect aerosol effect follow an inverse radiative forcing to equilibrium climate sensitivity relationship, while models without it do not.
Role of Securin, Separase and Cohesins in female meiosis and polar body formation in Drosophila
Authors: Guo Zhihao , Batiha Osamah , Bourouh Mohammed , Fifield Eric , Swan Andrew 
Published: December 2015

ABSTRACT
Chromosome segregation in meiosis is controlled by a conserved pathway that culminates in Separase-mediated cleavage of the α-kleisin Rec8, leading to dissolution of cohesin rings. Drosophila has no gene encoding Rec8, and the absence of a known Separase target raises the question of whether Separase and its regulator Securin (Pim in Drosophila) are important in Drosophila meiosis. Here, we investigate the role of Securin, Separase and the cohesin complex in female meiosis using fluorescence in situ hybridization against centromeric and arm-specific sequences to monitor cohesion. We show that Securin destruction and Separase activity are required for timely release of arm cohesion in anaphase I and centromere-proximal cohesion in anaphase II. They are also required for release of arm cohesion on polar body chromosomes. Cohesion on polar body chromosomes depends on the cohesin components SMC3 and the mitotic α-kleisin Rad21 (also called Vtd in Drosophila). We provide cytological evidence that SMC3 is required for arm cohesion in female meiosis, whereas Rad21, in agreement with recent findings, is not. We conclude that in Drosophila meiosis, cohesion is regulated by a conserved Securin–Separase pathway that targets a diverged Separase target, possibly within the cohesin complex.
Case Report: A case report of unstable Hangman fracture in a eighty year old male
Authors: Munakomi Sunil , Bhattarai Binod 
Published: December 2015

Herein we discuss a rare variant of hangman’s fracture in an eighty year old male with good Karnofsky performance score. We performed X-ray and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the cervical spine to confirm the diagnosis. The patient was placed on a gentle cervical traction which showed good reduction. Despite being on a resource limited setup, we performed posterior occipitocervical fusion with bone graft fusion followed by early mobilization. A postoperative scan showed good reduction and purchase of the screws. This case highlights the importance of choosing the correct therapeutic attitude for the management of the geriatric population especially in those who do not have any significant co-morbid conditions.

Collecting Patient Reported Outcomes: Lessons from the California Joint Replacement
Registry
Authors: Chenok Kate E. , Teleki Stephanie , SooHoo Nelson F. , Huddleston III James , Bozic Kevin J. 
Published: December 2015

Context: While patient-reported outcomes (PROs) have long been used for research,
recent technology advancements make it easier to collect patient feedback and use it for
patient care. Despite the promise and appeal of PROs, substantial barriers to widespread
adoption remain—including challenges in interpreting privacy regulations, educating
patients and physicians about the power that PRO collection can provide to
patient-centered care.Case Description: This article describes lessons learned from the
California Joint Replacement Registry’s (CJRR) five-year effort to collect PROs from
patients undergoing total hip and total knee replacement surgeries. CJRR is a voluntary,
multi-institutional registry in California that collects clinical and device
information, as well as PROs from patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) and
total knee arthroplasty (TKA) surgeries.Proposed Solutions: The CJRR encountered and
developed solutions to overcome several key issues: (1) limitations of electronic PRO
collection, (2) challenges in patient recruitment and tracking, (3) challenges in
encouraging patients to complete PRO surveys, (4) real and perceived administrative
burden to clinic and hospital staff, (5) surgeon engagement, and (6) survey
costs.Conclusion: The CJRR’s field experience can inform growing numbers of providers
and researchers who seek to more fully understand the impact of care from the patient’s
perspective. In addition, the authors believe that these challenges can best be
addressed through a combination of policy changes and increased incentives.
Hematological and Biochemical Parameters in Symptomatic and Asymptomatic Leishmania-Seropositive Dogs
Authors: Ulchar Igor , Celeska Irena , Stefanovska Jovana , Jakimovska Anastasija 
Published: December 2015

Abstract
Leishmaniosis caused by Leishmania infantum is vector-born severe enzootic disease in dogs. It includes a wide spectrum of clinical symptoms, but the most characteristic are alterations in the hematopoetic system and renal failure. Also, infected animals could be asymptomatic, so the manifestation of L. infantum infection depends on many factors, including host’s immunological status. The aim of this survey was to find parameters related with hematopoetic and renal failure (hematology, biochemical parameters - urea, creatinine, serum proteins) in symptomatic and asymptomatic dogs seropositive for canine leishmaniosis. Within the hematological parameters, we found significant differences between symptomatic and asymptomatic dogs in the erythrogram and platelet count, but not in the leukogram. Significant differences between the two groups were found also for urea, creatinine, serum albumin and globulin, but not in serum total protein and A/G ratio. These findings indicate individual variability of the host’s response to infection with L. infantum.

Abstract
Ammann, R, Taube, W, and Wyss, T. Accuracy of PARTwear inertial sensor and Optojump optical measurement system for measuring ground contact time during running. J Strength Cond Res 30(7): 2057–2063, 2016—The aim of this study was to validate the detection of ground contact time (GCT) during running in 2 differently working systems: a small inertial measurement sensor, PARTwear (PW), worn on the shoe laces, and the optical measurement system, Optojump (OJ), placed on the track. Twelve well-trained subjects performed 12 runs each on an indoor track at speeds ranging from 3.0 to 9.0 m·s−1. GCT of one step per run (total 144) was simultaneously obtained by the PW, the OJ, and a high-speed video camera (HSC), whereby the latter served as reference system. The sampling rate was 1,000 Hz for all methods. Compared with the HSC, the PW and the OJ systems underestimated GCT by −1.3 ± 6.1% and −16.5 ± 6.7% (p-values ≤ 0.05), respectively. The intraclass correlation coefficients between PW and HSC and between OJ and HSC were 0.984 and 0.853 (p-values < 0.001), respectively. Despite the constant systematic underestimation of GCT, analyses indicated that PW successfully recorded GCT over a wide range of speeds. However, results showed only moderate validity for the OJ system, with increasing errors when speed decreased. In conclusion, the PW proved to be a highly useful and valid application, and its use can be recommended not only for laboratory settings but also for field applications. In contrast, data on GCT obtained by OJ during running must be treated with caution, specifically when running speed changes or when comparisons are made with GCT data collected by other measurement systems.

Abstract
Itaka, T, Agemizu, K, Aruga, S, and Machida, S. G allele of the IGF2 ApaI polymorphism is associated with judo status. J Strength Cond Res 30(7): 2043–2048, 2016—Previous studies have reported that the insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) ApaI polymorphism is associated with body mass index, fat mass, and grip strength. Competitive judo requires high levels of strength and power. The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between the IGF2 ApaI and ACTN3 R577X polymorphisms and judo status. The subjects were 156 male judo athletes from a top-level university in Japan. They were divided into 3 groups based on their competitive history: international-level athletes, national-level athletes, and others. Genomic DNA was extracted from the saliva of each athlete, and the maximal isometric strength of the trunk muscles and handgrip strength were measured. Genotyping by polymerase chain reaction–restriction fragment length polymorphism was used to detect IGF2 (rs680) and α-actinin-3 (ACTN3) (rs1815739) gene polymorphisms. The genotype frequencies of the 2 gene polymorphisms were compared among the 3 groups of judo athletes and controls. International-level judo athletes showed a higher frequency of the GG + GA genotype of the IGF2 gene than that of the national-level athletes and others. There was an inverse linear correlation between the frequency of the IGF2 AA genotype and level of judo performance (p = 0.041). Back muscle strength relative to height and weight was higher in subjects with the GG + GA genotype than in those with the AA genotype. Conversely, the ACTN3 R577X polymorphism was not associated with judo status. Additionally, no differences were found in back muscle or handgrip strength among the ACTN3 genotypes. In conclusion, the results indicate that the IGF2 gene polymorphism may be associated with judo status.

<p>The North East Third Sector Research Group (NETSRG) was established in 2013, with the aim of increasing the engagement of Third Sector professionals with academic literature (such as peer-reviewed journal articles, book chapters and conference papers) on topics of relevance to the sector. The group is underpinned by the premise that an abundance of research is produced by academics, which could be of benefit to the Third Sector, but is rarely accessed and translated into practice due to a range of barriers. The group was set up in a voluntary capacity by Keith Nicholson with support from Adele Irving and is made up of around 50 members.</p><p> </p>
Academic Commentary: 'Permanently Changing? Operationalising Research into Organisational Change in the Third Sector'
Authors: Bennett Hayley 
Published: December 2015

Organisations are never static; they are changing all the time. Unsurprisingly, actors in ‘third sector organisations’ (the diverse array of organisations that do not fit into the ideal type constructs of market or state organisations) experience and implement change in many different ways. On the one hand, there are numerous types of third sector organisations operating in different policy streams, locations, and contexts. On the other, third sector organisations engage in a variety of activities; some may deliver public service contracts, whilst others focus on traditional civil society and volunteer based activities. Many more may sit somewhere in between (Billis, 2010).
La biodiversité en question
Authors: Gosselin Frédéric 
Published: December 2015

Nous abordons ici trois problèmes sous-jacents d’une part à la notion de diversité spécifique, d’autre part au lien entre diversité et conservation des espèces. Nous insistons d’abord sur le manque de cohérence des définitions retenues : tantôt rattachée à la notion de variété, tantôt à celle de variabilité, incluant parfois l’homme ou les services écosystémiques, la biodiversité ne semble pas avoir de définition stabilisée. Second problème : il est souvent fait référence aux deux composantes indépendantes que seraient l’équitabilité et la richesse spécifique. Pourtant, nous verrons que par construction on ne peut pas considérer que ce soit le cas, notamment pour les faibles niveaux de richesse spécifique. Troisième problème : la notion de diversité des espèces prend en compte le nombre d’espèces et leur abondance relative. Deux communautés avec les mêmes espèces et les mêmes répartitions relatives d’abondance entre espèces auront la même diversité, même si la seconde a un niveau d’abondance globale plus élevé que la première. Or la viabilité des espèces est davantage liée à leur abondance absolue qu’à leur abondance relative. C’est pourquoi les analyses de biodiversité centrées autour de la conservation des espèces ne peuvent se contenter de données d’abondances relatives – et donc de la seule notion de diversité d’espèces – mais doivent impérativement inclure aussi des données d’abondance absolue et de répartition.
La biodiversité en question
Authors: Casetta Elena 
Published: December 2015

Si l’on regarde à la naissance du mot biodiversité , les espèces jouent un rôle fondamental. Néanmoins, la notion d’espèce est difficile à cerner – au point que dans la littérature on parle d’un véritable « problème de l’espèce » – et plusieurs auteurs ont suggéré de l’abandonner. Ce chapitre vise à défendre l’utilité de la notion d’espèce par rapport à l’évaluation et à la conservation de la biodiversité en prenant en considération les difficultés que les détracteurs de la notion soulignent – tout particulièrement l’objection selon laquelle la biodiversité ne serait pas les espèces et le désaccord sur le comptage des espèces résultant du pluralisme taxinomique. Dans le premier cas, on montre que l’objection rate sa cible ; dans le second cas, on suggère à l’aide d’une étude de cas que le désaccord est plus substantiel mais aussi qu’il peut être circonvenu.

Hemp is diploid organism (2n = 2x = 20, genome size 534 Mb) with nine pairs of autosomes plus XX (♀) or XY (♂) chromosomes. Cannabis sativa L. is an important economic plant for the production of food, fibre, oils, and intoxicants. Genotypes (varieties or chemovar) of hemp with low Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol content are used for industrial applications. Varieties with high Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol or high cannabidiol content are used for medicinal applications. Biochemical and molecular methods can be used for identification and classification. An important step for molecular biology methods is to obtain the matrix of the native and sufficiently pure DNA. We tested two different experimental variant of samples (20 mg and 100 mg) of seeds, oilcake and dried flowers for analysis of the Italian variety Carmagnola for analysis (harvested in 2014, Hempoint Ltd., Czech Republic). The DNeasy® Plant Mini Kit (Qiagen, GE) was used to isolate the DNA. The DNA concentration and purity was assessed by agarose electrophoresis and via a spectrophotometer. Samples of lower weight yielded lower values of DNA concentration (average 16.30 - 38.90 ng.µL-1), but with better purity than samples of higher weight (ratio A260nm/A280nm for low-weight samples was near 1.80). To test the applicability of DNA analysis, we used two SSR markers (CAN1347 and CAN2913). PCR products were separated on 1% agarose and on 8% polyacrylamide electrophoresis. DNA samples obtained from samples of higher weight exhibited less PCR amplification than samples of lower weight. We found no effect of sample weight on the formation of non-specific amplification products during the PCR reaction. Based on our results we can be recommended for practical isolation procedure using DNeasy® Plant Mini Kit with lower of sample weight (20 mg). In future work the procedure for DNA isolating from wheat-cannabis products, e. g. breads, rolls or pasta, will be optimized.

The effect of different organic sources of Cr on growth, feed efficiency and carcass value is known but there is a lack of information between chromium nicotinate (CrNic) and pork quality. Therefore, purpose of this research was to investigate the effects of CrNic on chemical composition, quality and oxidative stability of pork meat. In the study, pigs of Large White breed (40 pcs) were used. The pigs were divided into two groups, namely the control and the experimental of 20 pcs with equal number of barrows and gilts. The pigs were fed the same diet which consisted of three feed mixtures applied at the different growth phases, from 30 - 45 kg OS-03, 45 - 70 kg OS-04 and 70 - 100 kg OS-05. The pigs were allowed ad libitum access to feed and water. The diet of experimental group was supplemented with 0.75 mg.kg-1 CrNic in the form of chromium-inactivated yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The fattening period in pigs lasted from 30 to 100 kg. The chromium supplementation led to a significantly higher content of chromium in longissimus thoracis muscle (LT) of experimental pigs. In addition, the results showed a statistically significant difference (p ≤0.05) in retention of chromium in the LT, monounsaturated and omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids content in experimental group compared with control. Moreover, there was highly significant (p £0.05) difference in essential fatty acids, as well as in oxidative stability in 7 days, among the groups. The highly significant differences were also observed among sexes, namely in total water, protein and intramuscular fat contents, colour CIE b* in both times, and oxidative stability. However, physical-technological parameters (pH, drip loss, shear force and meat colour) were not affected when pigs were fed the supplement. On the whole, the positive effect of chromium nicotinate in most of investigated parameters may be beneficial not only for pork industry but also for consumers.
Porphyreon through the Ages: The Fading Archaeological Heritage of the Lebanese Coast
Authors: Waliszewski Tomasz , Gwiazda Mariusz 
Published: December 2015

ABSTRACT
Ancient Porphyreon (Jiyeh/Nebi Younis) was a large rural settlement located on the coast of modern-day Lebanon, near the Phoenician city of Sidon. This article presents the initial research results of the stratigraphic data, extending from at least the eighth century BC to the seventh century AD, and explores how Phoenician village functioned. Analysis proves that it played a significant role in the local economy—on the one hand, providing for the city of Sidon and, on the other, mediating the exchange of goods with rural settlements, scattered across the mountainous hinterland. Uncovering the mysteries of this coastal settlement is extremely important, especially in light of the increasing threat to the archaeological heritage of Lebanon.
