Using Internet based arts to promote inter-generational meetings between young people and senior citizens: The Playmäkers project in Sweden
Authors: Horwitz Eva Bojner , Huss Ephrat 
Published: March 2017

Abstract
This article studies the application of a multi-purpose, arts-based intervention for young adults interacting with members of the elderly population who have dementia. The project studied uses online cultural products as a mediating element for communication between the youths and the elders. The project aims to harness the technological sophistication of young adults, here called Playmäkers (PM), to offer elderly sufferers of dementia access to music, movies and visual arts, which the elderly participant remembers from their youth. This process includes the nurses and family as additional participants and culminates in a group presentation of the arts. This article, using a qualitative case study method, aims to explore the phenomenological impact of such a programme on the residents, nurses, youths and residents’ families in two residential wards with 68 patients. The theoretical frame of analysis includes non-verbal embodied communication, emotional mind, arts in health and psychosocial interventions for youth. Implications for applying this programme are derived from the data and discussed.
‘I’m not a therapist you know... I’m an artist’: Facilitating well-being and basic psychological needs satisfaction through community arts participation

Published: March 2017

Abstract
The role of the artist is crucial to the success of arts for health initiatives yet remains under-explored in the research literature. This article examines the practice of arts facilitation through the lens of self-determination theory (SDT). Fourteen interviews with artists leading projects for older adults across three settings were subject to a secondary thematic analysis. A hybrid approach was adopted with themes developed inductively and deductively. Artists were found to satisfy participants’ basic psychological needs in diverse ways. Autonomy: artists spoke of valuing the expression of individual differences and identities, encouraging participants to assume ownership of projects. Competence: developing participants’ aptitudes and skills and repairing negative self-beliefs emerged as common goals. Relatedness: artists sought to cultivate social interaction within groups and forge relationships with participants themselves. Self-determination theory provides a well-validated framework to conceptualize the psycho-social processes mediating arts project outcomes relating to psychological well-being.

Slow It Down. Write It. Perform It
Authors: Cunningham Julia 
Published: March 2017

Abstract
This article is an enquiry into the meditative and unconscious processes of the mind. In critical thought there appears to be a gap where the art object has been elevated above the artist process. What has been lost is a study into the psychoanalytic, creative and meditative qualities of both written and creative systems. This article draws from theories of meditative practice, as well as contemporary practitioners including Marina Abramović and Zhang Huan. The aims of this study are to augment process, lead discussion and create discourse in the context of meditative, performative and immaterial dialogues.
feature article: Film clips in Scandinavian language instruction: Building student competencies
Authors: Gullette Christian , Kaiser Mark , Møller Karen 
Published: March 2017

Abstract
This article argues that incorporating film clips into instruction of the Scandinavian languages, both at elementary and advanced levels, provides an authentic and contextual model not only for developing linguistic competencies, but communicative and intercultural skill sets. Film clips can combine curricular goals with invaluable opportunities at all learner levels for critical intersectional analysis that accelerates language acquisition as well as intercultural awareness. Foreign language teachers have long valued feature film for its rich cultural content, but its use in the language curriculum has presented a quandary to instructors given its length and students’ difficulty in comprehending the rapid flow of speech. This article will consider the great potential that film has for foreign language instructors and the means for its exploitation in the foreign language curriculum. We begin by describing Berkeley Language Center (BLC)’s online database of films and clips, the Library of Foreign Language Film Clips (LFLFC), one possible resource of clips for the language instructor. We then describe how language instructors might use film in the foreign language curriculum, drawing on examples first from elementary Swedish and then from intermediate/advanced Danish.
A transdisciplinary approach to mentoring through collaboration

Published: March 2017

Abstract
At The Ohio State University, I’ve had the honour and privilege to work with amazing students, both in the classroom and in community settings. We have engaged in collaborative research and service learning activities that created new knowledge and deep relationships. These relationships have supported a pedagogy of engagement that incorporates the tenants of collaboration and mentorship at multi-layered levels. They have also empowered both my students and community partners in the co-creation of knowledge that would lead to solutions of community-identified issues. The collaboration would be three tired and involve faculty, student and community, on equal platforms. The mentorship would navigate a process between my students and myself, equally playing significant roles in informing each other of new ideas and novel directions as we explored the issues, problems and concerns of our community partners. This article focuses on the co-creation of collaborative processes of faculty/student mentorship and collaboration between faculty/students, and faculty/students/community partners in the co-creation of knowledge.
‘Kids know about art’: Amplifying under-represented voices in art museums through mentorship
Authors: Reid Natasha S. , Cinquemani Shana , Farrar Chelsea 
Published: March 2017

Abstract
Within this article, we share our experiences critically engaging with and elevating under-represented voices in museum spaces via a graduate level course in multicultural museum education. We bring the perspectives of both an assistant professor and two graduate students in order to explore multi-faceted relationships grounded in trust, risk-taking, non-hierarchical dynamics and co-mentorship. Natasha (as assistant professor) explores her experiences developing and implementing the assignment and related course, highlighting how her relationship with these graduate students enabled her to develop a more fluid approach to mentorship. Chelsea and Shana (as graduate students) examine their interpretation and implementation of the assignment, and their reciprocal and non-authoritative relationship with their child participant. Finally, we collaboratively reflect on the experience through a dialogue at the end of the article. We aim to offer readers insight regarding how assignment design, interpretation, and the chosen site for implementation can support dynamic and alternative mentorship opportunities that emphasize the amplification of under-represented voices.

Differential responses of rabbit ventricular and atrial transient outward current (Ito) to the Ito modulator NS5806
Authors: Cheng Hongwei , Cannell Mark B. , Hancox Jules C. 
Published: March 2017

AbstractTransient outward potassium current (Ito) in the heart underlies phase 1 repolarization of cardiac action potentials and thereby affects excitation–contraction coupling. Small molecule activators of Ito may therefore offer novel treatments for cardiac dysfunction, including heart failure and atrial fibrillation. NS5806 has been identified as a prototypic activator of canine Ito. This study investigated, for the first time, actions of NS5806 on rabbit atrial and ventricular Ito. Whole cell patch‐clamp recordings of Ito and action potentials were made at physiological temperature from rabbit ventricular and atrial myocytes. 10 μmol/L NS5806 increased ventricular Ito with a leftward shift in Ito activation and accelerated restitution. At higher concentrations, stimulation of Ito was followed by inhibition. The EC50 for stimulation was 1.6 μmol/L and inhibition had an IC50 of 40.7 μmol/L. NS5806 only inhibited atrial Ito (IC50 of 18 μmol/L) and produced a modest leftward shifts in Ito activation and inactivation, without an effect on restitution. 10 μmol/L NS5806 shortened ventricular action potential duration (APD) at APD20‐APD90 but prolonged atrial APD. NS5806 also reduced atrial AP upstroke and amplitude, consistent with an additional atrio‐selective effect on Na+ channels. In contrast to NS5806, flecainide, which discriminates between Kv1.4 and 4.x channels, produced similar levels of inhibition of ventricular and atrial Ito. NS5806 discriminates between rabbit ventricular and atrial Ito, with mixed activator and inhibitor actions on the former and inhibitor actions against the later. NS5806 may be of significant value for pharmacological interrogation of regional differences in native cardiac Ito.
Cigarette smoke‐induced urothelial cell damage: potential role of platelet‐activating factor

Published: March 2017

AbstractCigarette smoking is an environmental risk factor associated with a variety of pathologies including cardiovascular disease, inflammation, and cancer development. Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) is a chronic inflammatory bladder disease with multiple etiological contributors and risk factors associated with its development, including cigarette smoking. Previously, we determined that cigarette smoking was associated with bladder wall accumulation of platelet activating factor (PAF), a potent inflammatory mediator that facilitates transendothelial cell migration of inflammatory cells from the circulation. PAF has been shown to reduce expression of tight junctional proteins which could ultimately lead to increased urothelial cell permeability. In this study, we observed that cigarette smoke extract (CSE) treatment of human urothelial cells increases PAF production and PAF receptor expression and reduces wound healing ability. After exposure to cigarette smoke for 6 months, wild‐type C57BL/6 mice displayed urothelial thinning and destruction which was not detected in iPLA2β−/− (enzyme responsible for PAF production) animals. We also detected increased urinary PAF concentration in IC/BPS patients when compared to controls, with an even greater increase in urinary PAF concentration in smokers with IC/BPS. These data indicate that cigarette smoking is associated with urothelial cell damage that may be a result of increased PAF‐PAF receptor interaction. Inhibition of iPLA2β activity or blocking of the PAF‐PAF receptor interaction could serve as a potential therapeutic target for managing cigarette smoke‐induced bladder damage.

Constitutionality of the Agreement between the Foreign Affairs Ministers of the Republic of Korea and Japan on the Issue of ‘Comfort Women’ on 28 December 2015
Authors: Bang Seung Ju 
Published: March 2017

Abstract
On 28 December 2015, Korean Foreign Minister Yun Byung-se and Japanese Foreign Minister Fumio Kishida held a meeting at the Korean Foreign Ministry in Seoul and announced that they had reached an agreement to resolve the so-called ’comfort women’ issue, who were forcibly drafted into sexual slavery by the Japanese imperial army in World War II. But the agreement’s binding effect and constitutionality are highly controversial. This agreement violates not only the principle of the statutory or parliamentary reservation by the restriction of the basic rights and the power of the National Assembly to consent to the treaty pursuant to Article 60 (1) of the Constitution, but also infringes the constitutional rights of the ‘comfort women’ victims, such as the right to human dignity, the right to know, and the right to property. This article provides a review of current and potential constitutional litigation regarding the agreement, including the claim that has already been brought by the comfort women survivors, and potential suits concerning the competence dispute and impeachment by the National Assembly.
Control of Subsonic and Sonic Jets with Limiting Tabs
Authors: Berrueta T. , Rathakrishnan E. 
Published: March 2017

AbstractAerodynamic mixing of subsonic and sonic jets with limiting tabs, with and without corrugations, has been studied experimentally. Limiting tab located at the nozzle exit and at a downstream distance of 0.5D has been considered in this study. Mixing caused by the tab at nozzle exit is found to be better that of tab at 0.5D, for both plain and corrugated geometries. Also, both tabs caused better mixing for underexpanded sonic jets than the correctly expanded sonic jet and subsonic jets. At nozzle pressure ratio 3 the plain tab at the nozzle exit reduced the core by about 56 % and the corrugated tab by about 51 %. But when the plain tab is placed at 0.5D the jet mixing is retarded. However, the corrugated tab at 0.5D enhances the mixing, though not up to the level of the same tab at 0D, at all Mach numbers except 0.6. The maximum reduction of core caused by shifted corrugated tab is 14 % for Mach 0.8 jet.

Abstract: Introduction: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the main causes of blindness among persons aged 50 years and older. Aim: The purpose of our survey was to estimate the prevalence of DM and diabetic retinopathy (DR), as well as to assess the coverage of diabetic eye care services in different regions of Hungary. Method: In 105 clusters, 3675 people aged 50 years and older were included in the survey. The standardized rapid assessment of avoidable blindness (RAAB) with the diabetic retinopathy module (DRM) was used to examine the participants. Thereafter, differences between West-, Middle- and East-Hungary were analysed. Results: Prevalence of DM was higher in East-Hungary (20.9%), than in West- (19.5%) and in Middle-Hungary (19.5%). Prevalence od DR was higher in West-Hungary (24.1%), than in Middle- (17.8%) and in East-Hungary (19.6%). Proportion of participants who never had a fundus examination for DR was the lowest in Middle-Hungary (19.1%). Conclusions: Primary care should be strenghten mainly in country settlements or telemedical eye screening program should be started to decrease the prevalence of diabetic eye complications. Orv.

Background: The role of the alternative complement pathway (AP) abnormalities in the pathogenesis of aHUS is well studied. Clinical and morphological manifestations of atypical HUS and catastrophic APS are often similar. However, studies on the state of AP in patients with CAPS are virtually absent. Aims: The aim of our study was to assess the state of AP in patients with CAPS and aHUS. Patients and methods: The study enrolled 67 patients (pts) with a diagnosis of CAPS (28 pts) and aHUS (39 pts). Studies of the complement system are made of 10 pts with CAPS and 20 aHUS. Factor H, I, B, D content, functional activity of factor H, and complement components C3, C4 was determined in serum by ELISA kit. Results: Patients with CAPS and aHUS showed similar changes in complement biomarkers. The factor H level in the serum was significantly higher than the standard value. However, the specific activity of factor H reduced, mean rate 59% for aHUS and 26% for CAPS. The median value of factor D was twice higher than the normal range in both groups, indicating the activation of the AP. Conclusions: There are indications of an AP activation not only in pts with aHUS but in CAPS pts too. We suppose that the activity of factor H is a more sensitive indicator of complement system changes than factor H level. Patients with CAPS and aHUS have similar clinical and laboratory characteristics. However, CAPS is more severe, with the involvement of a larger number of vascular beds. Perhaps this is due to the double damaging effects on the endothelium ― of antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) and activated complement. So we hypothesize that CAPS can be called aPL-mediated TMA in pts with a complement system defect.
