Do Museums Change Lives?: Ninth Stephen Weil Memorial Lecture
Authors: Fleming David 
Published: April 2016

AbstractNo museum is actually “neutral,” ever.This article presents the keynote address presented at the annual conference of the International Committee on Museum Management (INTERCOM) and of the Federation of International Human Rights Museums (FIHRM). In it, the author lays out the provocative case that museums not only are not, but should not be “neutral” when it comes to issues of human rights and social justice. Museums need not present both sides of every argument, or retain a lofty academic tone when it comes to the injustices of the present and the past. As an alternative course, the author presents a framework published by the British Museums Association, entitled Museums Change Lives, which offers a vision for museums to engage with challenging topics. He then offers a series of examples where Museums have embraced a new role as a promoter of social good.

Authors: Van Huy Nguyen , Thi Ha Vu , Thi Thanh Tam Vu 
Published: April 2016

AbstractThe first exhibition in Vietnam to feature Vietnamese Catholics was held from December 10, 2008 to June 10, 2009 at the Vietnam Museum of Ethnology in Hanoi. The theme of this exhibition was “Catholic Culture as an Intrinsic Part of Vietnamese Culture.” The exhibition was organized by a State‐run museum against a background of difficult relations between the State and its Catholic communities. This article explores how the exhibition was conceived, and how the ideas of the curators were implemented by examining negotiations among different stakeholders involved in the exhibition.
In Search of Magic Bullets
Authors: Freudenheim Tom 
Published: April 2016

AbstractThe author suggests that especially in museums, particularly art museums, creating truly visitor‐friendly environments eludes most institutions. The special, sometimes magical, experience of direct contact with original works of art can be encouraged by management decisions that make the museum a more accessible place. This ranges from technological fixes to simply insisting on friendliness from staff. Examples from the author's experience are provided.
“Loving, Knowing Ignorance”: A Problem for the Educational Mission of Museums
Authors: Gilbert Lisa 
Published: April 2016

AbstractIn this essay, I suggest that Mariana Ortega's concept of “loving, knowing ignorance” (2006) provides a useful conceptual tool for museum practitioners who seek to advance a progressive mission. This form of ignorance assumes authority in describing and acting on behalf of a subject, even as it fails to take seriously the subject's self‐knowledge and agency. While Ortega initially coined this term to describe the stance of white feminists toward women of color, here I extend the concept to describe a wider range of knowers—in this case, the institutional museum. Using a case study at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston to illustrate this problem, I will suggest that becoming aware of instances of loving, knowing ignorance and learning to avoid it is a key skill for museum professionals who hope for their institutions to fulfill their educational mission in a diverse and democratic society.
Cultural Curating and the Practices of Light: Speculating Diffractively
Authors: Dziekan Vince 
Published: April 2016

AbstractDrawing inspiration from New Materialist philosopher Karen Barad's challenge to read “diffractively” by experimenting with different patterns of relationality, this article sets out a course of speculative inquiry inspired by the contemporary fascination with digital light‐based installations. Taking the UN's designation of 2015 as the “International Year of Light and Light‐based Technologies” as its point of departure, a subset of mediated environments are identified that transcend the distinction between physical and digital; materiality and immateriality; invisibility and presence. Employing new technologies to create deeply sensorial and highly participatory forms of aesthetic engagement, the selected examples offer a compelling indication of the post‐digital aesthetics that arise from the interrelationship of art, design and computation. Its investigation is structured as a montage of two parts: following an introduction that surveys an illustrative sub‐set of contemporary digital light‐based art works drawn from the 2014 INST‐INT conference, the second half of this text will speculate upon the “dynamic‐constructive” relationship between digital media and the form‐making processes associated with “practices of light” (Cubitt ). The implications of “post‐screen media” for curatorial practice is explored in relation to the mediating function played by modes of exhibition and other program architectures.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the feasibility of malignant pleural effusions (MPE) as surrogate samples for the detection of echinoderm microtubule‐associated protein‐like4 (EML4)‐anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) and to investigate the prognostic and predictive value of EML4‐ALK in MPE of non‐small‐cell lung cancer (NSCLC).MethodsOne hundred and nine NSCLC patients were retrospectively analysed. EML4‐ALK was identified using paraffin‐embedded tumour cells in MPE samples by immunohistochemistry (IHC, Ventana) and confirmed by fluorescence using in situ hybridisation (FISH) and qRT‐PCR. The EGFR mutation was determined by MPE, using denaturing high‐performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC).ResultsA total of 5 out of 109 (4.58%) patients were identified as EML4‐ALK rearrangement in MPE by IHC.; In addition to two metachronous samples, the consistency of MPE and tissue for EML4‐ALK detection was 100% (21/21), and the sensitivity and specificity were 100% (2/2) and 100% (19/19), respectively. EML4‐ALK rearrangement cases were confirmed by FISH and qRT‐PCR; the sensitivity were both 100% (2/2) when compared with tissue, and it was 60% (3/5) and 100% (5/5), respectively, when compared with MPE by IHC. The overall response rate (ORR) was 100% (2/2) for patients with EML4‐ALK in MPE. Moreover, the PFS of these patients appeared to be prolonged in chemotherapy (9.27 versus 6.53 and versus 4.67 months, P = 0.122), compared with the EGFR mutation and the EGFR/ALK double negative group, respectively.ConclusionEML4‐ALK rearrangement detection in malignant pleural effusions is a complementary method for EML4‐ALK detection. VETANA and qRT‐PCR are more appropriate for MPE detection. EML4‐ALK rearrangement in pleural effusions has a predictive value for treatment.

Authors: Muniraj F. , Siddaraju N. , Sistla S. C. 
Published: April 2016

ObjectiveTo evaluate the utility of brush cytology (BC) in diagnosing non‐neoplastic and neoplastic lesions of the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract.MethodsThe study comprised 106 brushings from 104 patients with clinically suspected lesions in the upper GI tract. Diagnoses were rendered on correlating brush cytological findings with clinicoradiological findings and compared with endoscopic biopsies (EB). An attempt was made to grade oesophageal squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) and to subcategorise gastric adenocarcinomas (AC). The sensitivity, specificity and predictive values of BC were calculated with respect to clinico‐radiological outcome.ResultsMalignant and benign lesions on BC comprised 74.5% and 25.5%, respectively, and on histology, 64.2% and 28.3%, respectively. Twenty‐one of 32 (65.6%) gastric ACs were accurately sub‐typed (16 intestinal and five diffuse) and 25/36 (69.4%) oesophageal SCCs (7, 15 and three well, moderately and poorly differentiated, respectively) were accurately graded. On correlation with the final clinico‐radiological diagnosis, there was one false‐positive and no false‐negative cases, respectively, on BC; three false‐negative and no false‐positive cases, respectively, on EB; eight EB were non‐representative in which a diagnosis was not rendered, out of which seven were malignant. Thus, BC had a sensitivity and specificity of 100% and 96.4%, respectively, with a positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV) and diagnostic accuracy (DA) of 98.7%, 100% and 99.1% (P ˂ 0.05), respectively. BC was superior to EB in detecting Candida species and EB in detecting Helicobacter pylori.ConclusionsBC is a useful, routinely applicable and reliable test for diagnosing upper GI lesions.
Usefulness of immunocytochemistry using a Breast Marker antibody cocktail targeting P63/cytokeratin7/18/cytokeratin5/14 for fine needle aspiration of the breast: a retrospective cohort study of 139 cases

Published: April 2016

ObjectiveThe Breast Marker Cocktail from Biocare Medical comprises five antibodies recognising p63, and cytokeratins (CKs) 7, 18, 5 and 14. Immunohistochemistry using this cocktail is useful for diagnosing proliferative intraductal breast lesions. However, cytology using the cocktail has not been reported.MethodsWe report 139 cases of mammary samples collected by fine needle aspiration (FNA) for which histological diagnoses were available. After cell transfer, immunocytochemistry was performed using the cocktail, and clusters of cells were classified. A cluster with no or limited CK5/14 expression (<20% of cells) was classified as a monotonous cluster. One with more than 20% of cells showing CK5/14 expression was defined as a mosaic cluster. When at least one p63‐positive cell was present, we defined it as a cluster with p63. We also evaluated background p63‐positive myoepithelial cell densities.ResultsThe diagnostic sensitivity and specificity for carcinomas were 97.8% (89/91) and 91.7% (11/12), respectively, using the criterion of two or more monotonous clusters lacking p63. Two false‐negative cases were triple‐negative cancers; one false‐positive was an apocrine papilloma. The numbers of monotonous clusters with p63 differed significantly between benign lesions, ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS)/lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS) and invasive carcinomas (P < 0.001). The background myoepithelial cell density was significantly higher in fibroepithelial tumours than in other lesions (P < 0.001).ConclusionsImmunocytochemistry using this antibody cocktail showed good sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing breast cancers. Thus, this method is useful for mammary cytology using FNA.
Inferring implications of climate change in south Florida hardwood hammocks through analysis of metacommunity structure

Published: April 2016

AbstractAimIn order to explore how variation in regional biogeography would affect forest responses to climate change, we analysed metacommunity structure of trees in natural forest fragments across a boundary between tropical and sub‐tropical temperature regimes. We wished to determine whether species assemblages were constrained by periodic cold temperatures, dispersal limitation and/or local processes associated with fragment size, and consider how these influences might affect future species migration and community reassembly.LocationSoutheastern Florida, USA.MethodsWe collected complete tree species lists for 144 forest fragments, from our own surveys supplemented by publicly available sources. The resulting species‐by‐site data matrix was re‐ordered based on an ordination that identified the latent environmental axis most responsible for variation in composition, and metacommunity structure was analysed for coherence, turnover and range boundary clumping. Matrix structure was tested for associations with site variables, and with community‐aggregated functional traits related to cold tolerance, dispersal limitation and fragment size.ResultsForest patch size was the strongest single correlate with composition and species richness, but mean January temperature and a neighbourhood index denoting degree of isolation from other patches contributed significantly to regression models. The species‐by‐site matrix was highly nested, with trees common to small upland fragments in the Everglades interior representing a distinct subset of the richer assemblages found in sites closer to the coast. Interior forests were smaller, more isolated, and subject to cooler minimum temperatures than more coastal forests, and were comprised primarily of early‐successional, animal dispersed species.Main conclusionsWhile warming winter temperatures may relax some constraints on the northward migration of tropical species through the region, sea level rise will raise ground water levels, decreasing the size and number of suitable mesic patches, and increasing their isolation. The result will be a loss in tree species diversity, especially among late‐successional, edge‐sensitive species.
Governing Mobility through Humanitarianism in Somalia: Compromising Protection for the Sake of Return
Authors: Horst Cindy , Nur Anab Ibrahim 
Published: April 2016

ABSTRACTThis article aims to contribute to an increased understanding of the importance of migration in humanitarian and ‘post‐humanitarian’ contexts, by exploring the interlinkages between protection and displacement. It argues that the strategies by which conflict‐displaced populations protect themselves are largely based on mobility. Yet, humanitarian approaches to displaced populations do not take sufficient account of the mobility needs of those they assist. Furthermore, the actual location at which aid is provided is affected by funding realities and donor priorities. This article discusses the case of protracted displacement realities of Somali refugees and internally displaced people in Kenya, Somaliland and south‐central Somalia. Based on in‐depth semi‐structured interviews and focus group discussions with humanitarian aid workers and displaced people, the article offers an analysis of the recent ‘stabilization discourse’ that fuels programming directed at the return of displaced Somalis. The authors argue that humanitarian protection is compromised by immobile aid practices and by humanitarian programmes that are guided by states’ interest in refugee return.
Fulfilling Promises of More Substantive Democracy? Post‐neoliberalism and Natural Resource Governance in South America
Authors: Siegel Karen M. 
Published: April 2016

ABSTRACTBenefiting from the commodity boom, progressive governments across South America have sought to move away from the neoliberal policies adopted previously by strengthening the role of the state and using revenues from commodity exports to address social concerns. This approach, often called neo‐extractivism, has become the main development strategy over the past 15 years. Yet, the increasingly intensive and extensive natural resource exploitation underlying this development strategy has also led to multiple protests and contestations across South America. This article thus examines the relationship between neo‐extractivism as a development strategy and the quality of democracy under progressive governments in South America. On the one hand, neo‐extractivism has allowed states to become more inclusive by paying attention to social concerns which in turn has been an important element in the legitimacy of progressive governments. On the other hand, the reliance on neo‐extractivism as the main development strategy poses important constraints on the ability of post‐neoliberal states to build more substantive democracies which could take into account a variety of positions, give citizens a say in decisions directly affecting their livelihoods, and promote public debates on key questions confronting society.

Published: April 2016

Background and AimMultiple scoring systems have been developed to predict outcomes in patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding. We determined how well these and a newly established scoring model predict the need for therapeutic intervention, excluding transfusion, in Japanese patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding.MethodsWe reviewed data from 212 consecutive patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Patients requiring endoscopic intervention, operation, or interventional radiology were allocated to the therapeutic intervention group. Firstly, we compared areas under the curve for the Glasgow‐Blatchford, Clinical Rockall, and AIMS65 scores. Secondly, the scores and factors likely associated with upper gastrointestinal bleeding were analyzed with a logistic regression analysis to form a new scoring model. Thirdly, the new model and the existing model were investigated to evaluate their usefulness.ResultsTherapeutic intervention was required in 109 patients (51.4%). The Glasgow‐Blatchford score was superior to both the Clinical Rockall and AIMS65 scores for predicting therapeutic intervention need (area under the curve, 0.75 [95% confidence interval, 0.69–0.81] vs 0.53 [0.46–0.61] and 0.52 [0.44–0.60], respectively). Multivariate logistic regression analysis retained seven significant predictors in the model: systolic blood pressure <100 mmHg, syncope, hematemesis, hemoglobin <10 g/dL, blood urea nitrogen ≥22.4 mg/dL, estimated glomerular filtration rate ≤ 60 mL/min per 1.73 m2, and antiplatelet medication. Based on these variables, we established a new scoring model with superior discrimination to those of existing scoring systems (area under the curve, 0.85 [0.80–0.90]).ConclusionWe developed a superior scoring model for identifying therapeutic intervention need in Japanese patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding.

AbstractMany individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) exhibit motor difficulties, but it is unknown whether manual motor skills improve, plateau, or decline in ASD in the transition from childhood into adulthood. Atypical development of manual motor skills could impact the ability to learn and perform daily activities across the life span. This study examined longitudinal grip strength and finger tapping development in individuals with ASD (n = 90) compared to individuals with typical development (n = 56), ages 5 to 40 years old. We further examined manual motor performance as a possible correlate of current and future daily living skills. The group with ASD demonstrated atypical motor development, characterized by similar performance during childhood but increasingly poorer performance from adolescence into adulthood. Grip strength was correlated with current adaptive daily living skills, and Time 1 grip strength predicted daily living skills eight years into the future. These results suggest that individuals with ASD may experience increasingly more pronounced motor difficulties from adolescence into adulthood and that manual motor performance in ASD is related to adaptive daily living skills.
Infant learning is influenced by local spurious generalizations
Authors: Gerken LouAnn , Quam Carolyn 
Published: April 2016

AbstractIn previous work, 11‐month‐old infants were able to learn rules about the relation of the consonants in CVCV words from just four examples. The rules involved phonetic feature relations (same voicing or same place of articulation), and infants' learning was impeded when pairs of words allowed alternative possible generalizations (e.g. two words both contained the specific consonants p and t). Experiment 1 asked whether a small number of such spurious generalizations found in a randomly ordered list of 24 different words would also impede learning. It did – infants showed no sign of learning the rule. To ask whether it was the overall set of words or their order that prevented learning, Experiment 2 reordered the words to avoid local spurious generalizations. Infants showed robust learning. Infants thus appear to entertain spurious generalizations based on small, local subsets of stimuli. The results support a characterization of infants as incremental rather than batch learners.
Preliminary evidence of the impact of early childhood maltreatment and a preventive intervention on neural patterns of response inhibition in early adolescence

Published: April 2016

AbstractMaltreated youths in foster care often experience negative developmental and psychological outcomes, which have been linked with poor response inhibition. Recent evidence suggests that childhood maltreatment is also associated with alterations in the neural circuitry underlying response inhibition. However, a burgeoning line of research has begun to explore the mitigating effects of preventive interventions on neural functioning. The current study used event‐related functional magnetic resonance imaging to explore the impact of early childhood maltreatment and a preventive intervention on response inhibition in early adolescence. Thirty‐six demographically similar adolescents (ages 9–14 years) completed a Go/NoGo task. The sample included nonmaltreated adolescents (n = 14) and maltreated adolescents who were in foster care as preschoolers and randomly assigned to receive services as usual (n = 11) or a preventive intervention, Multidimensional Treatment Foster Care for Preschoolers (n = 11). The groups demonstrated similar behavioral performance but significantly different neural patterns. The maltreated adolescents who received services as usual demonstrated subcortical hypoactivity during successful response inhibition and subcortical hyperactivity during unsuccessful response inhibition. In contrast, the nonmaltreated adolescents and maltreated adolescents who received the intervention exhibited strikingly similar neural patterns during successful response inhibition, but the maltreated adolescents who received the intervention demonstrated prefrontal hypoactivity during unsuccessful response inhibition. These findings offer preliminary evidence that early childhood maltreatment alters the neural patterns underlying response inhibition in early adolescence and that participating in a preventive intervention could mitigate maltreatment‐related effects on these neural systems.
