Published: July 2016

Sprint runners achieve much higher gait velocities and accelerations than average humans, due in part to large forces generated by their lower limb muscles. Various factors have been explored in the past to understand sprint biomechanics, but the distribution of muscle volumes in the lower limb has not been investigated in elite sprinters. In this study, we used non‐Cartesian MRI to determine muscle sizes in vivo in a group of 15 NCAA Division I sprinters. Normalizing muscle sizes by body size, we compared sprinter muscles to non‐sprinter muscles, calculated Z‐scores to determine non‐uniformly large muscles in sprinters, assessed bilateral symmetry, and assessed gender differences in sprinters' muscles. While limb musculature per height‐mass was 22% greater in sprinters than in non‐sprinters, individual muscles were not all uniformly larger. Hip‐ and knee‐crossing muscles were significantly larger among sprinters (mean difference: 30%, range: 19–54%) but only one ankle‐crossing muscle was significantly larger (tibialis posterior, 28%). Population‐wide asymmetry was not significant in the sprint population but individual muscle asymmetries exceeded 15%. Gender differences in normalized muscle sizes were not significant. The results of this study suggest that non‐uniform hypertrophy patterns, particularly large hip and knee flexors and extensors, are advantageous for fast sprinting.
Symbolic Interaction with Consumer Products: An Affect Control Theory Approach
Authors: Shank Daniel B. , Lulham Rohan 
Published: July 2016

AbstractSymbolic interactionism is one of the few social psychology perspectives that recognizes the important role of physical artifacts, including consumer products, in social life. Consumer products are artifacts people can use to maintain the expressive order within social life – the order that is embedded within the shared meanings of a culture. As a formal theory of symbolic interactionism, affect control theory emphasizes culturally shared affective meaning, the impressions produced within social events, and identity processes that rely on those cultural meanings and social events. We contend that affect control theory provides a framework for understanding and researching how consumer products influence people's social experience and interaction. First, we specifically explore how affect control theory's concepts of affective meaning, identity modification, and impression management can be applied to understanding consumer products. Building on this foundation, we then consider how affect control theory might also contribute to three new research directions: social interaction with consumer products, affective design of consumer products, and the prosumer identity created from consumer products. Our conclusion is that affect control theory provides sociologists with a means of exploring the important and fascinating questions that emerge when we consider people's symbolic interaction with consumer products.
The Threat of the “Other”: Ethnic Competition and Racial Interest
Authors: Gonzalez‐Sobrino Bianca 
Published: July 2016

AbstractRacial conflict has been at the center of US society since its inception. Various theories have tried to explain why racial conflict arises and what the motivating factors are. The aim of this article is to examine one of these theories––ethnic competition––by reviewing the sociological literature from the 1970s to present that focuses on racial interest, ethnic competition, and racial threat.
Metamorphic sole formation, emplacement and blueschist facies overprint: early subduction dynamics witnessed by western Turkey ophiolites

Published: July 2016

AbstractThe largest ophiolite on Earth, in western Turkey, is a key place to study obduction and early subduction dynamics. Ophiolite remnants derived from the same Neotethyan branch (preserved as a result of long‐lived Late Cretaceous continental subduction and later obduction) are underlain by hundred‐metre‐thick extensive metamorphic soles. These soles formed synchronously, at c. 93 Ma, and were welded to the base of the ophiolite, thereby dating the start of intra‐oceanic subduction. This contribution focuses on the structure, petrology and pressure–temperature evolution of the soles and other subduction‐derived units. Peak pressure–temperature conditions were estimated at 10.5 ± 2 kbar and 800 ± 50 °C for the sole by means of pseudosection calculations using Theriak/Domino and at 12 kbar and 425 °C for the unique, enigmatic blueschist facies overprint of the sole. This study provides clues to the mechanisms of sole underplating during early subduction, later cooling, and the nature of the western Turkey ophiolite.
Reusable, extensible, and modifiable R scripts and Kepler workflows for comprehensive single set ChIP-seq analysis
Authors: Cormier Nathan , Kolisnik Tyler , Bieda Mark 
Published: July 2016

Abstract
Background
There has been an enormous expansion of use of chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-seq) technologies. Analysis of large-scale ChIP-seq datasets involves a complex series of steps and production of several specialized graphical outputs. A number of systems have emphasized custom development of ChIP-seq pipelines. These systems are primarily based on custom programming of a single, complex pipeline or supply libraries of modules and do not produce the full range of outputs commonly produced for ChIP-seq datasets. It is desirable to have more comprehensive pipelines, in particular ones addressing common metadata tasks, such as pathway analysis, and pipelines producing standard complex graphical outputs. It is advantageous if these are highly modular systems, available as both turnkey pipelines and individual modules, that are easily comprehensible, modifiable and extensible to allow rapid alteration in response to new analysis developments in this growing area. Furthermore, it is advantageous if these pipelines allow data provenance tracking.

Results
We present a set of 20 ChIP-seq analysis software modules implemented in the Kepler workflow system; most (18/20) were also implemented as standalone, fully functional R scripts. The set consists of four full turnkey pipelines and 16 component modules. The turnkey pipelines in Kepler allow data provenance tracking. Implementation emphasized use of common R packages and widely-used external tools (e.g., MACS for peak finding), along with custom programming. This software presents comprehensive solutions and easily repurposed code blocks for ChIP-seq analysis and pipeline creation. Tasks include mapping raw reads, peakfinding via MACS, summary statistics, peak location statistics, summary plots centered on the transcription start site (TSS), gene ontology, pathway analysis, and de novo motif finding, among others.

Conclusions
These pipelines range from those performing a single task to those performing full analyses of ChIP-seq data. The pipelines are supplied as both Kepler workflows, which allow data provenance tracking, and, in the majority of cases, as standalone R scripts. These pipelines are designed for ease of modification and repurposing.
Profiling networks of distinct immune-cells in tumors
Authors: Clancy Trevor , Hovig Eivind 
Published: July 2016

Abstract
Background
It is now clearly evident that cancer outcome and response to therapy is guided by diverse immune-cell activity in tumors. Presently, a key challenge is to comprehensively identify networks of distinct immune-cell signatures present in complex tissue, at higher-resolution and at various stages of differentiation, activation or function. This is particularly so for closely related immune-cells with diminutive, yet critical, differences.

Results
To predict networks of infiltrated distinct immune-cell phenotypes at higher resolution, we explored an integrated knowledge-based approach to select immune-cell signature genes integrating not only expression enrichment across immune-cells, but also an automatic capture of relevant immune-cell signature genes from the literature. This knowledge-based approach was integrated with resources of immune-cell specific protein networks, to define signature genes of distinct immune-cell phenotypes. We demonstrate the utility of this approach by profiling signatures of distinct immune-cells, and networks of immune-cells, from metastatic melanoma patients who had undergone chemotherapy. The resultant bioinformatics strategy complements immunohistochemistry from these tumors, and predicts both tumor-killing and immunosuppressive networks of distinct immune-cells in responders and non-responders, respectively. The approach is also shown to capture differences in the immune-cell networks of BRAF versus NRAS mutated metastatic melanomas, and the dynamic changes in resistance to targeted kinase inhibitors in MAPK signalling.

Conclusions
This integrative bioinformatics approach demonstrates that capturing the protein network signatures and ratios of distinct immune-cell in the tumor microenvironment maybe an important factor in predicting response to therapy. This may serve as a computational strategy to define network signatures of distinct immune-cells to guide immuno-pathological discovery.
Incremental stages of a semantic framework for automating the changes on long term composed services
Authors: Thirumaran M. , Brendha G. Gayathry 
Published: July 2016

AbstractEnterprises enhance their business on the web with the help of web services. This enhancement is achieved by composing the pre-existing services, so that they will be able to provide solutions for the problems on the web. Due to rapid development in technology, the need for making changes in the composed services by the respective analysts becomes an essential task. Thus, the change management process becomes a challenging area in web service. Although, the existing solutions use ontology for change management, they have been designed majorly for IT developers rather than analyst. Therefore, we concentrate on providing a change management framework that will make use of an enriched ontology set and semantic reasoner for implementing the changes by the analyst itself. The semantic reasoner component parses the change request from the analysts and determines the possibility for making the change. The framework represents the implemented changes in the form of a S-BPEL notation (Semantic BPEL) which is then converted to their corresponding BPEL notations by a BPEL constructor so that they can be deployed in the run time environment for composing the services.
Design and implement chords and personal windows for multi-user collaboration on a large multi-touch vertical display

Published: July 2016

AbstractCo-located collaboration on large vertical screens has become technically feasible, but users are faced with increased effort, or have to wear intrusive personal identifiers. Previous research on co-located collaboration has assumed that all users perform exactly the same task (e.g., moving and resizing photos), or that they negotiate individual actions in turns. However, there is limited user interface software that supports simultaneous performance of individual actions during shared tasks (Fig. 1a). As a remedy, we have introduced multi-touch chords (Fig. 1b) and personal action windows (Fig. 1c) for co-located collaboration on a large multi-touch vertical display. Instead of selecting an item in a fixed menu by reaching for it, users work simultaneously on shared tasks by means of personal action windows, which are triggered by multi-touch chords performed anywhere on the display. In order to evaluate the proposed technique with users, we introduced an experimental task, which stands for the group dynamics that emerge during shared tasks on a large display. A grounded theory analysis of users’ behaviour provided insights into established co-located collaboration topics, such as conflict resolution strategies and space negotiation. The main contribution of this work is the design and implementation of a novel seamless identification and interaction technique that supports diverse multi-touch interactions by multiple users: multi-touch chord interaction along with personal action windows.
The complete genome sequence and analysis of vB_VorS-PVo5, a Vibrio phage infectious to the pathogenic bacterium Vibrio ordalii ATCC-33509
Authors: Echeverría-Vega Alex , Morales-Vicencio Pablo , Saez-Saavedra Camila , Ceh Janja , Araya Rubén 
Published: July 2016

AbstractThe bacterium Vibrio ordalii is best known as the causative agent of vibriosis outbreaks in fish and thus recognized for generating serious production losses in aquaculture systems. Here we report for the first time on the isolation and the genome sequencing of phage vB_VorS-PVo5, infectious to Vibrio ordalii ATCC 33509. The features as well as the complete genome sequence and annotation of the Vibrio phage are described; vB_VorS-PVo5 consists of a lineal double stranded DNA totaling ~ 80.6 Kb in length. Considering its ability to lyse Vibrio ordalii ATCC 33509, the phage is likely to gain importance in future aquaculture applications by controlling the pathogen and as such replacing antibiotics as the treatment of choice.
Gastronomic brands as a means of promoting destinations
Authors: Лагусев Юрий , Lagusev Yuriy , Балынин Кирилл , Balynin Kirill 
Published: July 2016

Gastronomic tourism is a special form of cultural tourism, the main purpose of which is familiarity with a certain tourist product or a platter. Gastronomic tourism is working closely with many types of tourism, in particular with a tour, ethnographic, culinary and oenological. The organizational technology of gastro-
nomic tourism involves many sectors of industry and agriculture. It should be noted that not all theorists of
tourism and tourism professionals differentiate gastronomic tourism as an independent species. According to experts, tourists learn the products and dishes of this or that destination “de facto”, regardless of the
purpose of the trip. It is difficult to accept, even because tourists engaged in certain types of tourism (health and fitness, sports tourism) are unable to break the dietary or diet, or to deviate from the diet. Meanwhile,
the researches of the resource base for the organization of gastronomic tourism in Russia are practically not carried out. The article analyzes the role of gastronomic tourism as a promising direction of the economy experiences. The authors consider gastronomic tours as tours of senses (taste, tactile, olfactory and aesthetic). According to the authors, the foundation of gastronomic tourism makes culinary (food) brands. This category is like a means of promoting destinations, original card of regions. The authors describe the special role of the gastronomic brands in forming the image of the tourist areas, which are suitable for the development of gastronomic tourism; the authors attempt to classify product brands on various criteria. Finally,
they make recommendations for the organizers of tourism on the use of product brands in the promotion and implementation of gastronomic tours, as well as executive bodies in charge of regulation of tourism at the municipal and federal levels.
Wrist function in malunion: Is the distal radius designed to retain function in the face of fracture?
Authors: Uzoigwe C , Johnson N 
Published: July 2016

Introduction Fractures of the distal radius are the most common fracture in humans and are the sempiternal hazard of 3.5 million years of bipedalism. Despite the antiquity of the injury, one of the most controversial topics in current orthopaedics is the management of distal radius fractures. It has been suggested that radiographic appearances rarely correlate with functional outcomes. As the success of the human species is predicated almost exclusively on its dexterity and intelligence, it is conceivable that the distal radius has evolved to preserve function even in the face of injury. We therefore hypothesise that the distal radius is designed to accommodate the possibility of fracture. Methods We conducted a review of studies comparing fracture pattern and form with function. We also explore the paleoanthropological evidence and comparative studies with other primates. Findings The evidence points to the human distal radius being highly tolerant of post-fracture deformity in terms of preservation of function. In addition, the distal radius appears to have apparently anatomically ‘redundant’ features that confer this capability. We believe these phenomena to be an evolved trait that developed with bipedalism, increasing the chances of survival for a species whose success depends upon its dexterity.

Abstract
Esco, MR, Flatt, AA, and Nakamura, FY. Agreement between a smartphone pulse sensor application and electrocardiography for determining lnRMSSD. J Strength Cond Res 31(2): 380–385, 2017—The purpose of this study was to determine the agreement between a smartphone pulse finger sensor (SPFS) and electrocardiography (ECG) for determining ultra–short-term heart rate variability in 3 different positions. Thirty college-aged men (n = 15) and women (n = 15) volunteered to participate in this study. Sixty-second heart rate measures were simultaneously taken with the SPFS and ECG in supine, seated, and standing positions. The log transformed root mean square of successive R-R interval differences (lnRMSSD) was calculated from the SPFS and ECG. The lnRMSSD values were 81.5 ± 11.7 using ECG and 81.6 ± 11.3 using SPFS (p = 0.63, Cohen's d = 0.01) in the supine position, 76.5 ± 8.2 using ECG and 77.5 ± 8.2 using SPFS (p = 0.007, Cohen's d = 0.11) in the seated position, and 66.5 ± 9.2 using ECG and 67.8 ± 9.1 using SPFS (p < 0.001, Cohen's d = 0.15) in the standing position. The SPFS showed a possibly strong correlation to the ECG in all 3 positions (r values from 0.98 to 0.99). In addition, the limits of agreement (constant error ± 1.98 SD) were -0.13 ± 2.83 for the supine values, −0.94 ± 3.47 for the seated values, and −1.37 ± 3.56 for the standing values. The results of the study suggest good agreement between the SPFS and ECG for measuring lnRMSSD in supine, seated, and standing positions. Although significant differences were noted between the 2 methods in the seated and standing positions, the effect sizes were trivial.

Loturco, I, Nakamura, FY, Winckler, C, Bragança, JR, da Fonseca, RA, Filho, JM, Zaccani, WA, Kobal, R, Cal Abad, CC, Kitamura, K, Pereira, LA, and Franchini, E. Strength-power performance of visually impaired paralympic and olympic judo athletes from the brazilian national team: a comparative study. J Strength Cond Res 31(3): 743–749, 2017—The aim of this study was to compare the muscle power and maximal isometric strength capacities of Olympic and visually impaired Paralympic judo athletes. Twenty-eight elite judo athletes (7 men and 7 women per group) from the permanent Brazilian National Paralympic and Olympic teams took part in this study. After a specific warm-up, the athletes performed loaded jump squat (JS), bench press (BP), and standing barbell row (SBR) exercises to determine their values of maximum mean propulsive power (MPP) in these respective exercises. The maximal isometric strength (MIS) was also determined for both upper and lower limbs, through the use of BP and half-squat (HS) exercises. Finally, the jumping ability was assessed using unloaded squat jump (SJ). The magnitude-based inference was used to compare the groups. The Olympic judo athletes presented a likely higher SJ height than the Paralympic athletes. The Olympic group presented almost certainly higher MPP in the loaded JS and in the SBR exercises and likely higher MPP in the BP exercise. Importantly, in the MIS assessments the differences between groups in the HS and BP exercises were rated as unclear. In conclusion, our results showed that both Olympic and Paralympic judo athletes present similar levels of maximal isometric strength, but muscle power performance is superior in Olympic athletes.

Abstract
Mitchell, JA, Pumpa, KL, and Pyne, DB. Responses of lowerbody power and match running demands after long-haul travel in international rugby sevens players. J Strength Cond Res 31(3): 686–695, 2017—This study determined the effect of long-haul (>5 hours) travel on lower-body power and match running demands in international rugby sevens players. Lower-body power was assessed in 22 male international rugby sevens players (age 21.7 ± 2.7 years, mass 89.0 ± 6.7 kg, stature 180.5 ± 6.2 cm; mean ± SD) monitored over 17 rugby sevens tournaments. A countermovement jump was used to monitor lower-body power (peak and mean power) over repeated three week travel and competition periods (pretravel, posttravel, and posttournament). Small decreases were evident in peak power after both short and long-haul travel (−4.0%, ±3.2%; mean, ±90% confidence limits) with further reductions in peak and mean power posttournament (−4.5%, ±2.3% and −3.8%, ±1.5%) culminating in a moderate decrease in peak power overall (−7.4%, ±4.0%). A subset of 12 players (completing a minimum of 8 tournaments) had the effects of match running demands assessed with lower-body power. In this subset, long-haul travel elicited a large decrease in lower-body peak (−9.4%, ±3.5%) and mean power (−5.6%, ±2.9%) over the monitoring period, with a small decrease (−4.3%, ±3.0% and −2.2%, ±1.7%) posttravel and moderate decrease (−5.4%, ±2.5% and −3.5%, ±1.9%) posttournament, respectively. Match running demands were monitored through global positioning system. In long-haul tournaments, the 12 players covered ∼13%, ±13% greater total distance (meter) and ∼11%, ±10% higher average game meters >5 m·s−1 when compared with short-haul (<5 hours) travel. Effective pretravel and posttravel player management strategies are indicated to reduce neuromuscular fatigue and running load demands in rugby sevens tournaments after long-haul travel.
