Purpose Although intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) is increasingly used to treat locally advanced non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), IMRT and three-dimensional conformal external beam radiation therapy (3D-CRT) have not been compared prospectively. This study compares 3D-CRT and IMRT outcomes for locally advanced NSCLC in a large prospective clinical trial. Patients and Methods A secondary analysis was performed to compare IMRT with 3D-CRT in NRG Oncology clinical trial RTOG 0617, in which patients received concurrent chemotherapy of carboplatin and paclitaxel with or without cetuximab, and 60- versus 74-Gy radiation doses. Comparisons included 2-year overall survival (OS), progression-free survival, local failure, distant metastasis, and selected Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (version 3) ≥ grade 3 toxicities. Results The median follow-up was 21.3 months. Of 482 patients, 53% were treated with 3D-CRT and 47% with IMRT. The IMRT group had larger planning treatment volumes (median, 427 v 486 mL; P = .005); a larger planning treatment volume/volume of lung ratio (median, 0.13 v 0.15; P = .013); and more stage IIIB disease (30.3% v 38.6%, P = .056). Two-year OS, progression-free survival, local failure, and distant metastasis–free survival were not different between IMRT and 3D-CRT. IMRT was associated with less ≥ grade 3 pneumonitis (7.9% v 3.5%, P = .039) and a reduced risk in adjusted analyses (odds ratio, 0.41; 95% CI, 0.171 to 0.986; P = .046). IMRT also produced lower heart doses ( P < .05), and the volume of heart receiving 40 Gy (V40) was significantly associated with OS on adjusted analysis ( P < .05). The lung V5 was not associated with any ≥ grade 3 toxicity, whereas the lung V20 was associated with increased ≥ grade 3 pneumonitis risk on multivariable analysis ( P = .026). Conclusion IMRT was associated with lower rates of severe pneumonitis and cardiac doses in NRG Oncology clinical trial RTOG 0617, which supports routine use of IMRT for locally advanced NSCLC.

Authors: Sedrez-Porto José Augusto , Dos Santos Mateus B F , Pereira-Cenci Tatiana 
Published: October 2016

A literature review was performed including studies that evaluated the use of cleaning protocols for removable dentures through questionnaires, clinical trials, randomized clinical trials, and systematic reviews. Twenty studies were included and the results showed that bad preservation of the prostheses is mainly due to low knowledge about cleaning habits and methods. Also, a wide variety of effective cleaning methods were presented. However, there is no standard protocol for all patients and it should be customized for each patient. It is important to highlight that dentists should give adequate instructions concerning maintenance and hygiene of the prosthesis. KeywordsDental prosthesis; Oral hygiene; Oral health.

Objective: the aim of this study was to assess the effects of whitening dentifrices on the surface roughness of three commercial nanofiller-based composite. Material and Methods: two optical analyses were performed: stereomicroscopy and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Disks (8.0 diam. x 2.0 mm thick.) of the nanocomposite Z350 (3M ESPE) and two nano-hybrid composites (EsthetXHD, Dentsply and Premisa, Kerr) were submitted to in vitro brushing (1000 cycles) with three whitening dentifrices (Colgate Luminous White, Oral-B 3D White e Close-Up Diamond Attraction) and a control (Colgate Total12). The results were analyzed by stereomicroscopy and rated according to the following criteria: 0 – no observed roughness, 1 – average roughness, 2 – great roughness. Data was submitted to Kruskall-Wallis non-parametric test followed by Tukey test (p = 0.05). Z350 specimens were assessed by AFM. Results: the surface roughness of composites brushed with whitening dentifrices was statistically higher than the roughness found in specimens brushed with conventional dentifrice. AFM analyses showed that, at a submicrometric scale, there was an increase in the number of peaks and irregularities in specimens brushed with whitening dentifrices. Conclusion: Whitening dentifrices may have an impact on the longevity of dental composites by an increase in its roughness. It is strongly recommended that clinicians guide their patients, warning them about the risks and consequences of their use.

Flux form Semi-Lagrangian methods for parabolic problems
Authors: Bonaventura Luca , Ferretti Roberto 
Published: October 2016

Abstract
A semi-Lagrangian method for parabolic problems is proposed, that extends previous work by the authors to achieve a fully conservative, flux-form discretization of linear and nonlinear diffusion equations. A basic consistency and stability analysis is proposed. Numerical examples validate the proposed method and display its potential for consistent semi-Lagrangian discretization of advection diffusion and nonlinear parabolic problems.
The effect of humidity and temperature on human well-being in the forest and on open terrain
Authors: Dragańska Ewa , Panfil Monika , Szwejkowski Zbigniew 
Published: October 2016

Abstract
Between 01.01.2010 and 31.12.2011, we conducted measurements of air temperature and relative humidity at points located deep within forest area, along the edge of the forest in the immediate vicinity of a lake and in open terrain. The thermal and humidity conditions that have a stimulating effect on human well-being were determined for the selected locations by calculating the number of hot (tmax ≥ 25°C) and very hot days (tmax ≥ 30°C) as well as the number of frosty (tmax < 0°C) and very frosty days (tmin ≤ −10°C). The range of the stimulatory effect on human well-being by temperature was determined based on changes in the average night temperature and the amplitude of the daily air temperature. Stimulating humidity conditions were determined by comparing the the relative humidity to a reference value associated with a moist feeling and calculating the number of humid days (s ≥18.8 mbar).
Dendrological and landscape evaluation of the rural park Borek (Lublin province)
Authors: Kaczmarski Zdzisław , Dobrowolska Dorota 
Published: October 2016

Abstract
This article presents the results of my research conducted in the rural park Borek, which is located in Gardzienice Drugie, Lublin province. The study was comprised of measuring the dendrological value of the park using the Rokosza method and determining the landscape’s aesthetic value using the scenic beauty estimation (SBE) method. In order to establish the dendrological and aesthetic values, the park was divided into four sections, which were then compared with each other. It has been shown earlier that results of the scenic beauty estimation method and the dendrological value are only weakly correlated when it comes to park landscapes. It is therefore advisable to test the value of parks, in both categories, dendrological and aesthetic. This approach could form the basis for the development of a new method to classify and evaluate park landscapes.
Beware of the weeds

AbstractResearch into linguistic purism often reflects a critical, if not contemptuous attitude towards its subject of inquiry. The reasons for this are purists’ prescriptivist stance, as well as their frequent association with ethno-linguistic nationalism, an ideology in moral disrepute. We argue that this approach of purism produces blind spots. Following Pratt’s suggestion, we reconsider linguistic purism in this article as the effect of a utopian discourse and show how a desire for (linguistic) purity is at the very heart of the project of modernity. We apply our theoretical framework to the history of purism in modern Flanders (nineteenth to twenty-first century).

Published: October 2016

Abstract
Introduction. Several studies have shown that leisure contributes to improving seniors’ quality of life. However, some of this research has also highlighted the fact that there are marked physical, socioeconomic, and cultural disparities in this population. Material and methods. To this end, this article presents the results of a survey conducted in 2015 in Montreal with 464 respondents aged 50 and over regarding their interests and leisure practices. Results. This study highlights the importance that persons in this age group give to physical and outdoor recreation as well as free and outdoor activities. However, this study has also confirmed that there exist, regarding the problem of leisure, more or less significant differences among seniors and baby boomers which need to be taken into account by local actors. Conclusions. The results obtained and the correlated analyses clearly indicate that the senior population is not homogeneous with respect to their practices and their leisure needs. This analytical finding confirms that leisure and community services must be planned, programmed, and promoted taking into account these generational differences, as well as physical, socioeconomic, and cultural differences.
Paul Tillich, précurseur d’un oecuménisme postmoderne ?
Authors: Mathot Benoit 
Published: October 2016

Abstract
During the second half of the twentieth century, ecumenism has evolved its conception of unity. From a model of organic unity, where difference was that which had to be overcome, it has gradually understood Christian unity through a closer articulation of unity and difference. This question of the difference in the field of ecumenism, is consistent with the dynamic that postmodernity is traversing and consequently postmodern belief. Thus the question is how Paul Tillich, though he did not experience the major blooming of ecumenism, nevertheless managed to anticipate a more postmodern form of ecumenism, which would integrate this development as a fundamental dynamic.
Zur Etymologie des Flussnamens Laaber
Authors: Bichlmeier Harald 
Published: October 2016

Abstract
The hydronym Laaber is the name of several rivers in the Lower Bavaria and Upper Palatinate regions of Germany. Its origin, however, has so far not been satisfactorily explained. In this article, suggestions to date concerning the etymology of the name are critically reviewed, and a new etymology is advanced. The name is derived from the PIE root *leh2p- ‘to shine, be bright’ and explained as an original adjectival formation in *-ro-. This is satisfactory not just from a formal point of view but would also permit to compare this hydronym to the numerous river names derived from the Late PIE roots *arg- and *alb- ‘to shine’ from a semantic point of view.

Abstract
Comfort, P, Williams, R, Suchomel, TJ, and Lake, JP. A comparison of catch phase force-time characteristics during clean derivatives from the knee. J Strength Cond Res 31(7): 1911–1918, 2017—The aim of this study was to compare load-absorption force-time characteristics of the clean from the knee (CK), power clean from the knee (PCK), and clean pull from the knee (CPK). Ten collegiate athletes (age 27.5 ± 4.2 years; height 180.4 ± 6.7 cm; mass 84.4 ± 7.8 kg) performed 3 repetitions each of the CK, PCK, and CPK with 90% of their 1 repetition maximum power clean on a force platform. The CK load-absorption duration (0.95 ± 0.35 seconds) was significantly longer compared with the CPK (0.44 ± 0.15 seconds; p < 0.001, d = 2.53), but not compared with the PCK (0.56 ± 0.11 seconds; p > 0.05, d = 1.08), with no differences between PCK and CPK (p > 0.05, d = 0.91). The CPK demonstrated the greatest mean force (2,039 ± 394 N), which was significantly greater than the PCK (1,771 ± 325 N; p = 0.012, d = 0.83), but not significantly different to the CK (1,830 ± 331 N; p > 0.05, d = 0.60); CK and PCK were not different (p > 0.05, d = 0.18). Significantly more load-absorption work was performed during the CK (655 ± 276 J) compared with the PCK (288 ± 109 J; d = 1.75, p < 0.001), but not compared with the CPK (518 ± 132 J; d = 0.80, p > 0.05). Additionally, more load-absorption work was performed during the CPK compared with the PCK (d = 1.90, p = 0.032). Inclusion of the catch phase during the CK does not provide any additional stimulus in terms of mean force or work during the load-absorption phase compared with the CPK, although the CPK may be beneficial in training rapid force absorption because of high force and a short duration.
In Plain Sight: Documenting Immigration Detention in Canada
Authors: Dawson Carrie 
Published: October 2016

In December 2013, Lucia Jimenez was caught paying less than the full fare for a public transit ticket. An undocumented Mexican national, Jimenez was taken into custody by the Canadian Border Services Agency. She hanged herself shortly thereafter. Following Jimenez’s death, a friend argued, “Lucia ended up being a ghost here.” Like so many non-status migrants for whom banal daily rituals—like accessing public transit—are dangerous, Jimenez practiced a necessary invisibility. But it wasn’t until her undocumented status came to light that she really disappeared: she entered the state’s “apparatus of disappearance, and vanished in plain sight” (Nield). Given the technologies of surveillance at work in detention facilities, it seems counterintuitive to constitute them as places where one can vanish, but such is the case in Canada, where there is no upper limit on the length of immigration detention. Tings Chak takes up these issues in her 2015 graphic essay, Undocumented: the Architecture of Migrant Detention, arguing that there is a pressing need “to make visible the sites and stories of detention.” With attention to Chak’s book and to the circumstances surrounding Jimenez’s death, this essay takes up the call to instigate a public conversation about immigration detention in Canada.

La laguna Imboassica (estado de Rio de Janeiro), tuvo de 1993 a 2001 cuatro aberturas del cordón de arena que la separa del mar. Durante este perí­­odo fueron realizadas 28 colectas de peces, siendo 55.6% de las especies de valor comercialclasificada en guildas funcionales como: residentes en lagunas costeras (RLC), marina-dependientes (MD), visitantes marinas (VM) y de agua dulce (D). La captura por unidad de esfuerzo (CPUE) de las especies de interés comercial en los perí­­odos antes y después de las aberturas fue obtenida de acuerdo al tiempo y área de exposición de las redes. No hubo variaciones significativas en la abundancia de todas las guildas antes y después de las aberturas del cordón de arena. Fue observada una tendencia de aumento en la abundancia de individuos de las especies VM, RCL y MD en los perí­­odos posteriores a abertura del cordón de arena. Cuando este permaneció cerrado por aproximadamente tres aí­±os, fueron realizadas 21 colectas de peces, con aumento en la abundancia de dulcicolas y disminución de otras guildas (VM, RCL y MD). La producción pesquera de la laguna Imboassica es considerada baja y varia por la abertura y cierre del cordón arenoso.

Published: October 2016

This study was conducted to determine the clinical evaluation and various etiological factors of secondary seizures in patients admitted to Government Medical College, Nagpur. We evaluated 58 patients of secondary seizures from Dec 2011 to Oct 2013. Secondary seizures were defined as case of seizure with CT (brain) or MRI (brain) abnormality1. Out of 58 cases 35 were males and 23 were females. Mean age of study subjects was 34.85. The commonest presenting feature was generalized tonic clonic convulsions (42 patients) followed by focal seizures (16 patients). Todd’s palsy was observed in 4 cases. Aura was present in 24 cases. According to CT brain scan the aetiology was – neurocysticercosis (34.48%), post stroke (27.59%), tuberculoma (24.14%). Space occupying lesions(SOLs) were present in 8 patients, out of whom 4 had brain tumour, 2 patients had brain abscess, 1 had hydatid cyst and 1 had metastasis. Majority of lesions were located in frontal region (58.62%), followed by in parietal region (44.83%), in temporal region (25.86%) and in occipital region (13.79 % patients). In our study neurocysticercosis was found to be the commonest cause of secondary seizures. As in a meta-analysis it was found that cysticidal drugs result in better outcome in patients of neurocysticecosis, we recommend that the patients of secondary seizures should be identified for the aetiology and treated at the earliest2.

The word Greek origin "Plagion" is the root of word plagiarism and in Latin it is "plagiarius", which mean kidnapper, seducer, plunderer and literacy thief. Plagiarism is a serious violation of publishing ethics in academic institutes. This study aimed to examine the conceptual awareness of masters- professors and postgraduate students of Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences (AJUMS) related to plagiarism issues. A self-made questionnaire was used with two different parts included the demographic variables and questions to elicit their conceptual awareness to five more common issues of plagiarism. Participants were 155 Masters-professors and 305 Postgraduate students in AJUMS in South West of Iran. The results show that less than half of the total number of masters-professors and 26.5% of postgraduate students succeeded in giving the right perception of all five common plagiarism forms, so are not familiar enough with plagiarism issue. If we add uncommon types in our list, knowledge level may become less than this rate. The academic institutes have to plan a comprehensive research ethics educational program for increasing understanding and awareness of academicians.
