Separate Perceptual and Neural Processing of Velocity- and Disparity-Based 3D Motion Signals
Authors: Joo Sung Jun , Czuba Thaddeus B. , Cormack Lawrence K. , Huk Alexander C. 
Published: October 2016

Although the visual system uses both velocity- and disparity-based binocular information for computing 3D motion, it is unknown whether (and how) these two signals interact. We found that these two binocular signals are processed distinctly at the levels of both cortical activity in human MT and perception. In human MT, adaptation to both velocity-based and disparity-based 3D motions demonstrated direction-selective neuroimaging responses. However, when adaptation to one cue was probed using the other cue, there was no evidence of interaction between them (i.e., there was no “cross-cue” adaptation). Analogous psychophysical measurements yielded correspondingly weak cross-cue motion aftereffects (MAEs) in the face of very strong within-cue adaptation. In a direct test of perceptual independence, adapting to opposite 3D directions generated by different binocular cues resulted in simultaneous, superimposed, opposite-direction MAEs. These findings suggest that velocity- and disparity-based 3D motion signals may both flow through area MT but constitute distinct signals and pathways.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTRecent human neuroimaging and monkey electrophysiology have revealed 3D motion selectivity in area MT, which is driven by both velocity-based and disparity-based 3D motion signals. However, to elucidate the neural mechanisms by which the brain extracts 3D motion given these binocular signals, it is essential to understand how—or indeed if—these two binocular cues interact. We show that velocity-based and disparity-based signals are mostly separate at the levels of both fMRI responses in area MT and perception. Our findings suggest that the two binocular cues for 3D motion might be processed by separate specialized mechanisms.

Face perception is subserved by a series of face-selective regions in the human ventral stream, which undergo prolonged development from childhood to adulthood. However, it is unknown how neural development of these regions relates to the development of face-perception abilities. Here, we used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to measure brain responses of ventral occipitotemporal regions in children (ages, 5–12 years) and adults (ages, 19–34 years) when they viewed faces that parametrically varied in dissimilarity. Since similar faces generate lower responses than dissimilar faces due to fMRI adaptation, this design objectively evaluates neural sensitivity to face identity across development. Additionally, a subset of subjects participated in a behavioral experiment to assess perceptual discriminability of face identity. Our data reveal three main findings: (1) neural sensitivity to face identity increases with age in face-selective but not object-selective regions; (2) the amplitude of responses to faces increases with age in both face-selective and object-selective regions; and (3) perceptual discriminability of face identity is correlated with the neural sensitivity to face identity of face-selective regions. In contrast, perceptual discriminability is not correlated with the amplitude of response in face-selective regions or of responses of object-selective regions. These data suggest that developmental increases in neural sensitivity to face identity in face-selective regions improve perceptual discriminability of faces. Our findings significantly advance the understanding of the neural mechanisms of development of face perception and open new avenues for using fMRI adaptation to study the neural development of high-level visual and cognitive functions more broadly.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTFace perception, which is critical for daily social interactions, develops from childhood to adulthood. However, it is unknown what developmental changes in the brain lead to improved performance. Using fMRI in children and adults, we find that from childhood to adulthood, neural sensitivity to changes in face identity increases in face-selective regions. Critically, subjects' perceptual discriminability among faces is linked to neural sensitivity: participants with higher neural sensitivity in face-selective regions demonstrate higher perceptual discriminability. Thus, our results suggest that developmental increases in face-selective regions' sensitivity to face identity improve perceptual discrimination of faces. These findings significantly advance understanding of the neural mechanisms underlying the development of face perception and have important implications for assessing both typical and atypical development.

WstępBiopsja stereotaktyczna jest stosunkowo często wykorzystywanym sposobem diagnostyki guzów mózgu. „Złotym standardem” pozostaje nadal biopsja przy użyciu ramy stereotaktycznej, ale tak zwana biopsja „bezramowa”, wykonywana przy użyciu odpowiedniego systemu neuronawigacji, wydaje się bezpieczną i wygodną alternatywą. Autorzy ocenili skuteczność i bezpieczeństwo opartej na MRI „bezramowej” biopsji stereotaktycznej guzów mózgu.Materiał i metodyPrzeanalizowano retrospektywnie 42 przypadki pacjentów, u których wykonano biopsję „bezramową” guza mózgu w latach 2011–2013. Do jej wykonania użyto systemu neuronawigacji BrainLab™ z przystawką VarioGuide oraz igły z bocznym oknem tnącym. Plan zabiegu oparto na obrazie MRI głowy. W każdym przypadku pobierano co najmniej 3 próbki z różnych trajektorii. Materiał był każdorazowo oceniany histopatologicznie w tym samym ośrodku.WynikiJednoznaczny wynik rozpoznania histopatologicznego uzyskano w 85,7% przypadków (37 z 42 przypadków). W 14,3% przypadków (6 chorych) otrzymano wynik patologiczny, ale niepozwalający na postawienie konkret-nego rozpoznania histopatologicznego. Jeden pacjent (2,4%) z astrocytoma WHO III zmarł w wyniku okołooperacyjnego krwotoku dokomorowego. Inne istotne klinicznie powikłania okołooperacyjne wystąpiły w 2 przypadkach (4,8%), przy czym w jednym wszelkie dolegliwości ustąpiły przed wypisem ze szpitala. Diagnostyka histopatologiczna wykazała: 12 przypadków GBM (28,6%), 8 przypadków astrocytoma WHO III (19%), 10 przypadków astrocytoma WHO II (23,8%), 1 przerzut (2,4%), 1 chłoniak (2,4%) oraz 2 inne zmiany (4,8%). Analiza statystyczna nie wykazała istotnych różnic w stanie pacjentów przed i po zabiegu.WnioskiBiopsja „bezramowa” jest skutecznym i stosunkowo bezpiecznym sposobem diagnostyki guzów mózgu. Ten rodzaj biopsji cechuje się również szybszym wykonaniem. Wydaje się, że może być rekomendowana jako wygodna alternatywa dla biopsji w ramie stereotaktycznej.
DUAS LEITURAS DE PLATÃO: SIMONE WEIL ET MARTIN HEIDEGGER
Authors: Petit Maria Da Penha Villela 
Published: October 2016

O que o próprio Heidegger chamou de virada (Kehre) do seu pensamento, no início dos anos trinta, tem diretamente a ver com sua maneira de entender Platão. Ao Platão que ele saudava como tendo promovido a questão do ser, se substitui o Platão tido como iniciador da metafísica e, junto com Sócrates, precursor do cristianismo. Ora, segundo Heidegger, é tal configuração metafísica que requer ser ultrapassada por uma apropriação mais originária do Ser. O afastamento de Heidegger do cristianismo incide assim de maneira cabal sobre sua interpretação de Platão. O contrário ocorre com Simone Weil. Aproximando-se do Cristo, ela descobre um Platão cujo pensamento apresenta grandes afinidades com as intuições cristãs. Donde sua ênfase sobre « o desejo do Bem », que reside em todo homem, e sua equação entre o Bem em Platão e o Deus da revelação cristã em sua dimensão « impessoal ». É, portanto, em torno da interpretação da alegoria da caverna e sobretudo da questão do Bem abordada por Heidegger no curso « Da essência da verdade » (Vom Wesen der Wahrheit) e no ensaio « A doutrina de Platão sobre a verdade » (Platons Lehre von der Wahrheit) que a distância entre as duas leituras de Platão se manifesta Comunicação apresentada em 8/8/2003 no Colóquio «Simone Weil e a Grécia» organizado pelo Prof. Fernando Rey Puente em parceria com o Núcleo de Estudos Antigos e Medievais da em todo seu vigor. Além de inaceitável, a visão heideggeriana do Bem em Platão parece-nos ditada por motivos amplamente questionáveis, enquanto que a leitura weiliana revela a potencialidade da analogia no campo do pensamento.Abstract : Heidegger’s turn (Kehre), which took place in the beginning of the thirties, is directly related to his interpretation of Plato. The « Plato » whom he first praised for having promoted the question of the Being, is replaced by the « Plato » seen as the one who started metaphysics and, together with Socrates, was the precursor of christianity. In fact, for Heidegger, a more originary appropriation of the Being goes beyond this metaphysical configuration. Thus, Heidegger’s drift from christianity had a manifest effect on his reading of Plato. The opposite occurs with Simone Weil. After encountering Christ, she discovers in Plato’s thought elements akin to christian intuitions. She stresses that the “desire of the Good” is present in every man and equates the Good in Plato with the God of christian revelation in its impersonal dimension. It is indeed in the understanding of the cave allegory and, above all, of the idea of the Good that the two « readings » differ most vividly. The Heideggerian hermeneutics of the Good in Plato is unacceptable and, moreover, seems to be dictated by controversial motivations, while the Weilien reading of Plato reveals thepotentiality of the analogy in the realm of thought.
Inconsistencies Between Physician-Reported Disclosures at the AAOS Annual Meeting and Industry-Reported Financial Disclosures in the Open Payments Database
Authors: Hannon Charles P. , Chalmers Peter N. , Carpiniello Matthew F. , Cvetanovich Gregory L. , Cole Brian J. , Bach Bernard R. 
Published: October 2016

Background:
The purpose of this study was to determine the rate and type of inconsistencies between disclosures self-reported by physicians at a major academic meeting in the United States and industry-reported disclosures in the Open Payments database for a concordant time period.

Methods:
Disclosures for every first and last author from the United States with a medical degree of a podium or poster presentation at the 2014 American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) Annual Meeting were collected and were compared with the disclosures reported in the Open Payments database to determine if any inconsistencies were present and, if so, within which category.

Results:
In total, 1,925 total AAOS presenters were identified, and 1,113 met the inclusion criteria. Based on AAOS disclosures, 432 (39%) should have been listed within the Open Payments database. There were 125 presenters (11%) who reported an AAOS disclosure and thus should have been included in the Open Payments database, but were not included. An additional 259 presenters (23%) had ≥1 AAOS disclosures that were not reported or were improperly categorized in the Open Payments database. Inconsistencies were more common for authors who had significantly more poster presentations (p < 0.001), podium presentations (p = 0.01), total presentations (p < 0.001), and AAOS disclosures (p < 0.001) and a significantly higher value of payments in the Open Payments database (p < 0.001).

Conclusions:
In this sample, there was a 35% rate of inconsistency between physician-reported financial relationships for presenters at the AAOS Annual Meeting and industry-reported relationships published in the Open Payments database.
DIVERGENCE ANALYSIS BASED ON YIELD AND YIELD CONTRIBUTING TRAITS OF A COLLECTION OF SPRING WHEAT GENOTYPES (Triticum aestivum L.)

Published: October 2016

Genetic diversity among 24 spring wheat genotypes (Varieties/lines) was estimated using Mahalanobis D2-statistics and principal coordinate analysis. The genotypes fell into four clusters of different size. Of the seven different characters spike length and 1000 grain weight had the highest contribution towards the divergence. The highest inter cluster distance was observed between cluster I and III followed by cluster II and III. So, genotypes from the most divergence clusters could be used as parents in hybridization program and are expected to manifest maximum heterosis as well as broad spectrum of variability.
SLIPPING MAGNETIC RECONNECTION OF FLUX-ROPE STRUCTURES AS A PRECURSOR TO AN ERUPTIVE X-CLASS SOLAR FLARE
Authors: Li Ting , Yang Kai , Hou Yijun , Zhang Jun 
Published: October 2016

ABSTRACT
We present the quasi-periodic slipping motion of flux-rope structures prior to the onset of an eruptive X-class flare on 2015 March 11, obtained by the Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph and the Solar Dynamics Observatory. The slipping motion occurred at the north part of the flux rope and seemed to successively peel off the flux rope. The speed of the slippage was 30−40 km s−1, with an average period of 130 ± 30 s. The Si iv
λ1402.77 line showed a redshift of 10−30 km s−1 and a line width of 50−120 km s−1 at the west legs of slipping structures, indicative of reconnection downflow. The slipping motion lasted about 40 minutes, and the flux rope started to rise up slowly at the late stage of the slippage. Then an X2.1 flare was initiated, and the flux rope was impulsively accelerated. One of the flare ribbons swept across a negative-polarity sunspot, and the penumbral segments of the sunspot decayed rapidly after the flare. We studied the magnetic topology at the flaring region, and the results showed the existence of a twisted flux rope, together with quasi-separatrix layer (QSL) structures binding the flux rope. Our observations imply that quasi-periodic slipping magnetic reconnection occurs along the flux-rope-related QSLs in the preflare stage, which drives the later eruption of the flux rope and the associated flare.

ABSTRACT
The most frequently proposed model for the origin of quasars holds that the high accretion rates seen in luminous active galactic nuclei (AGN) are primarily triggered during major mergers between gas-rich galaxies. While plausible for decades, this model has only begun to be tested with statistical rigor in the past few years. Here, we report on a Hubble Space Telescope study to test this hypothesis for z = 2 quasars with high supermassive black hole masses (

), which dominate cosmic black hole growth at this redshift. We compare Wide Field Camera 3

(rest-frame V-band) imaging of 19 point source-subtracted quasar hosts to a matched sample of 84 inactive galaxies, testing whether the quasar hosts have greater evidence for strong gravitational interactions. Using an expert ranking procedure, we find that the quasar hosts are uniformly distributed within the merger sequence of inactive galaxies, with no preference for quasars in high-distortion hosts. Using a merger/non-merger cutoff approach, we recover distortion fractions of

for quasar hosts and

for inactive galaxies (distribution modes, 68% confidence intervals), with both measurements subjected to the same observational conditions and limitations. The slight enhancement in distorted fraction for quasar hosts over inactive galaxies is not significant, with a probability that the quasar fraction is higher

(

), in line with results for lower mass and lower z AGN. We find no evidence that major mergers are the primary triggering mechanism for the massive quasars that dominate accretion at the peak of cosmic quasar activity.
MODELING THE SUN’S SMALL-SCALE GLOBAL PHOTOSPHERIC MAGNETIC FIELD
Authors: Meyer K. A. , Mackay D. H. 
Published: October 2016

ABSTRACT
We present a new model for the Sun’s global photospheric magnetic field during a deep minimum of activity, in which no active regions emerge. The emergence and subsequent evolution of small-scale magnetic features across the full solar surface is simulated, subject to the influence of a global supergranular flow pattern. Visually, the resulting simulated magnetograms reproduce the typical structure and scale observed in quiet Sun magnetograms. Quantitatively, the simulation quickly reaches a steady state, resulting in a mean field and flux distribution that are in good agreement with those determined from observations. A potential coronal magnetic field is extrapolated from the simulated full Sun magnetograms to consider the implications of such a quiet photospheric magnetic field on the corona and inner heliosphere. The bulk of the coronal magnetic field closes very low down, in short connections between small-scale features in the simulated magnetic network. Just 0.1% of the photospheric magnetic flux is found to be open at 2.5 R
⊙, around 10–100 times less than that determined for typical Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager synoptic map observations. If such conditions were to exist on the Sun, this would lead to a significantly weaker interplanetary magnetic field than is currently observed, and hence a much higher cosmic ray flux at Earth.
Discontinuous color variation in the assassin bug species Tiarodes miyamotoi (Hemiptera: Reduviidae: Reduviinae)
Authors: Ishikawa Tadashi 
Published: October 2016

The reduviine assassin bug, Tiarodes miyamotoi Ishikawa, Cai and Tomokuni, 2005 (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Reduviidae: Reduviinae), has so far been known only from the Yaeyama Islands of Japan and no major intraspecific variation has been reported in this species.
This is the first record of this species from Okinawa-honto Island as the northernmost locality. Furthermore, an apparently discontinuous intraspecific variation in coloration has been confirmed between populations from the Yaeyama and Okinawa-honto Islands; this variation has been reported for the first time in the genus Tiarodes Burmeister, 1835, which comprises approximately 90 species.

Le contretransfert au cours des thérapies du couple vieillissant
Authors: Charazac-Brunel Marguerite 
Published: October 2016

La psychothérapie du couple âgé suscite des réactions transférentielles et contretransférentielles spécifiques où les mouvements émotionnels doivent être reconnus et contenus dans le cadre du préconscient. Les vécus d’angoisse de mort révèlent un vécu de mort déjà ressenti profondément dans l’inconscient, présent depuis longtemps. Fort heureusement, les personnes âgées restent le plus souvent très désireuses de faire part de leurs angoisses de mort, mais aussi de leurs rêves. Les rêves restent – quel que soit l’âge du sujet – la voie royale vers l’inconscient, mais aussi vers le rétablissement des interactions avec le thérapeute. La psychothérapie du sujet endeuillé, en particulier grâce à l’analyse des rêves, permet une ouverture vers de nouveaux liens. L’article présente ici la création d’un nouveau « jeune couple de partenaires âgés ».
L’échange automatique d’informations en matière fiscale dans le contexte international
Authors: Roussieau Candice 
Published: October 2016

Depuis l’adoption du Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) par les États-Unis en 2010, l’échange automatique d’informations en matière fiscale ne cesse de susciter l’intérêt de la scène internationale. Présenté comme le nouveau standard en matière d’échange d’informations fiscales par le G20 dès 2013, il a, depuis lors, fait l’objet de divers instruments internationaux destinés à en assurer la mise en œuvre. Le présent article dresse un état des lieux des différents modèles proposés respectivement par les États-Unis, l’OCDE et l’Union européenne. À cette occasion, deux enjeux essentiels pour l’avenir de ces instruments sont abordés : leur accessibilité aux États en développement et leur possible harmonisation en un modèle global.
The Effect of Bevacizumab Pretreatment on the Choice of Endotamponade in Diabetic Tractional Retinal Detachment
Authors: Uzel Mehmet Murat , Citirik Mehmet , Ilhan Cagri , Inanc Merve 
Published: October 2016

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effect of preoperative intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB) (Avastin; Genentech, South San Francisco, CA) injection on the choice of endotamponade at the end of surgery in patients who underwent pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for diabetic tractional retinal detachment (DTRD).PATIENTS AND METHODS:Seventy-eight patients who had DTRD with macular involvement and underwent PPV by a single surgeon from January 2012 to May 2015 were included. Complete ophthalmological examinations were evaluated at the baseline and during the postoperative follow-up period.RESULTS:The mean age was 55.58 years ± 9.31 years in bevacizumab group and 56.70 years ± 9.35 years in the non-bevacizumab group. Preoperative IVB injection was performed in 38 of 78 patients. The complications of intraoperative retinal bleeding and iatrogenic retinal tear were not seen in 26 patients within the bevacizumab group or in 12 patients within the non-bevacizumab group (P= .016). Silicone oil was used as endotamponade in 10 patients (26%) in the bevacizumab group and in 28 patients (70%) in the non-bevacizumab group. The use of silicone oil as endotamponade in the non-bevacizumab group was significantly greater than in the bevacizumab group (P= .039).CONCLUSION:IVB injection reduces the need for the use of silicone oil as endotamponade in the patients who underwent PPV for DTRD at the end of surgery.[Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina. 2016;47:924–929.]
Mixed Spectral Method for Heat Transfer Using Generalised Hermite Functions and Legendre Polynomials
Authors: Wang Tian-Jun , Zhang Chao , Zhang Qiong 
Published: October 2016

AbstractWe propose amixed spectral method for heat transfer in unbounded domains, using generalised Hermite functions and Legendre polynomials. Some basic results on the mixed generalised Hermite-Legendre orthogonal approximation are established, which plays important roles in spectral methods for various problems defined on unbounded domains. As an example, the mixed generalised Hermite-Legendre spectral scheme is constructed for anisotropic heat transfer. Its convergence is proven, and some numerical results demonstrate the spectral accuracy of this approach.
