Visual Outcomes After Cataract Surgery: Multifocal Versus Monofocal Intraocular Lenses
Authors: Shah Sunil , Peris-Martinez Cristina , Reinhard Thomas , Vinciguerra Paolo 
Published: October 2015

PURPOSE:
To evaluate visual outcomes, spectacle independence, and quality of life among nonastigmatic and astigmatic patients who received AcrySof IQ ReSTOR toric or nontoric multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) (Alcon Laboratories, Fort Worth, TX) compared with those who received commercially available nontoric monofocal IOLs after bilateral cataract removal.

METHODS:
This randomized, patient- and observer-technician–masked study was conducted at 20 sites in Europe. Patients were randomized to receive monofocal (nontoric only) or multifocal (nontoric or toric, as needed) IOLs. Primary efficacy endpoints included percentage of patients achieving binocular uncorrected distance and near acuity of 0.1 logMAR or better (20/25 Snellen), spectacle independence, and scores on the National Eye Institute Refractive Error and Quality of Life questionnaire domains. Safety endpoints included adverse events and refractive error within 0.5 and 1.0 diopters.

RESULTS:

In the multifocal group (n = 108) versus the monofocal group (n = 100), significantly more patients achieved uncorrected distance and near acuity of 0.1 logMAR or better (45.7% vs 2.1%;
P
< .0001) and spectacle independence (73.3% vs 25.3%;
P
< .0001) at 6 months. The percentage of patients who achieved uncorrected distance visual acuity of 20/40 or better at 6 months was 92% in the multifocal group and 97% in the monofocal group. National Eye Institute Refractive Error and Quality of Life scores were significantly better for dependence on correction in the multifocal group (
P
< .0001) and for glare in the monofocal group (
P
= .0157); other domain scores were similar between groups. No significant trends in study device-related adverse events were observed.

CONCLUSIONS:
Monofocal and multifocal IOLs provided good clinical outcomes. More patients receiving multifocal IOLs attained better uncorrected visual acuity at a range of distances and spectacle independence compared with patients who received monofocal IOLs. Monofocal IOLs were associated with better patient-reported scores for glare compared with multifocal IOLs; however, scores for patient satisfaction were significantly better in the multifocal group.

Screening Patients With Cataract for Premium IOL Candidacy Using Microperimetry
Authors: Klyce Stephen D. , McDonald Marguerite B. , Morales Marco U. 
Published: October 2015

PURPOSE:
To explore the use of microperimetry in the evaluation of macular dysfunction in patients with cataract, to aid in proper intraocular lens selection (multifocal vs monofocal), and to set expectations for postoperative visual function.

METHODS:
One randomly chosen eye of 10 patients diagnosed as having mild (1+) to moderate (3+) cataract was evaluated before and 1 week after cataract surgery with the MAIA microperimeter (Centervue S.p.A, Padova, Italy). Corrected distance visual acuity, dilated and undilated biomicroscopy and indirect fundus examinations, intraocular pressure measurement, and a MAIA microperimeter test to measure macular sensitivity and fixation pattern were also performed.

RESULTS:
Two patients showed macular abnormalities before and after surgery that were noted on MAIA testing: one patient showed reduced average threshold sensitivity and abnormal percent reduced threshold, whereas the other patient showed fixation drift demonstrating eccentric fixation. Both eyes had reduced postoperative visual performance after uneventful cataract surgeries.

CONCLUSIONS:
Because not every macular lesion noted on fundus examination or optical coherence tomography may be clinically significant, microperimetry can be useful to detect clinically significant retinal dysfunction prior to cataract surgery. The outcome may aid in the selection of intraocular lens type and may yield a better documented surgical prognosis. Further studies are necessary to confirm these findings.

Preliminary Evidence of Successful Enhancement After a Primary SMILE Procedure With the Sub-Cap-Lenticule-Extraction Technique
Authors: Donate David , Thaëron Rozenn 
Published: October 2015

PURPOSE:
To describe a modified small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) procedure called sub-cap-lenticule-extraction (Sub-Cap-LE) for refractive enhancement after SMILE.

METHODS:
Case report.

RESULTS:
A 53-year-old woman who underwent bilateral SMILE for moderate myopia complained of blurred vision at distance postoperatively. The manifest postoperative refraction in the eye targeted for distance was −1.0 −1.0 × 5°. She was scheduled for an enhancement applying a new technique that permits the surgeon to use the previously created interface as the new superior plane of the new lenticule. Postoperatively, uncorrected visual acuity improved from 20/63 to 20/16.

CONCLUSIONS:
This first case report demonstrates the feasibility of an enhancement with the SubCap-LE procedure after a primary SMILE procedure. More cases are needed to develop a consistent surgical protocol.

Resistance Exercise Attenuates High-Fructose, High-Fat-Induced Postprandial Lipemia
Authors: Wilburn Jessie R. , Bourquin Jeffrey , Wysong Andrea , Melby Christopher L. 
Published: October 2015

Introduction Meals rich in both fructose and fat are commonly consumed by many Americans, especially young men, which can produce a significant postprandial lipemic response. Increasing evidence suggests that aerobic exercise can attenuate the postprandial increase in plasma triacylglycerols (TAGs) in response to a high-fat or a high-fructose meal. However, it is unknown if resistance exercise can dampen the postprandial lipemic response to a meal rich in both fructose and fat. Methods Eight apparently healthy men (Mean ± SEM; age = 27 ± 2 years) participated in a crossover study to examine the effects of acute resistance exercise on next-day postprandial lipemia resulting from a high-fructose, high-fat meal. Participants completed three separate two-day conditions in a random order: (1) EX-COMP: a full-body weightlifting workout with the provision of additional kilocalories to compensate for the estimated net energy cost of exercise on day 1, followed by the consumption of a high-fructose, high-fat liquid test meal the next morning (day 2) (~600 kcal) and the determination of the plasma glucose, lactate, insulin, and TAG responses during a six-hour postprandial period; (2) EX-DEF: same condition as EX-COMP but without exercise energy compensation on day 1; and (3) CON: no exercise control. Results The six-hour postprandial plasma insulin and lactate responses did not differ between conditions. However, the postprandial plasma TAG concentrations were 16.5% and 24.4% lower for EX-COMP (551.0 ± 80.5 mg/dL x 360 minutes) and EX-DEF (499.4 ± 73.5 mg/dL x 360 minutes), respectively, compared to CON (660.2 ± 95.0 mg/dL x 360 minutes) ( P < 0.05). Conclusions A single resistance exercise bout, performed ~15 hours prior to a high-fructose, high-fat meal, attenuated the postprandial TAG response, as compared to a no-exercise control condition, in healthy, resistance-trained men.
Use of an Expedited Review Tool to Screen for Prior Diagnostic Error in Emergency Department Patients
Authors: El-Kareh R. , Schiff G. , Hudspeth J. 
Published: October 2015

Summary
Objective: Missed diagnoses are an important area of care quality resulting in significant morbidity and mortality. Determination of rates and causes has been limited by difficulties in screening, including the effort of manual chart review. We developed and tested a semi- automated review tool to expedite screening for diagnostic errors in an electronic health record (EHR).
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed patients seen in the emergency department (ED) of a teaching hospital over 31 days, using an automated screen to identify those with a prior in-system visit during the 14 days preceding their ED visit. We collected prior and subsequent notes from the institution’s EHR for these cases, then populated a specially designed relational database enabling rapid comparison of prior visit records to the sentinel ED visit. Each case was assessed for potential missed or delayed diagnosis, and rated by likelihood as “definite, probable, possible, unlikely or none.”
Results: A total of 5 066 patient encounters were screened by a clinician using the tool, of which 1 498 (30%) had a clinical encounter within the preceding 14 days. Of these, 37 encounters (2.6% of those reviewed) were “definite” or “probable” missed diagnoses. The rapid review tool took a mean of 1.9 minutes per case for primary review, compared with 11.2 minutes per case for reviews without the automated tool.
Conclusions: Diagnostic errors were present in a significant number of cases presenting to the ED after recent healthcare visits. An innovative review tool enabled a substantially increased efficiency in screening for diagnostic errors.
Thomas Hoccleve:
Authors: Horobin Simon 
Published: October 2015

Abstract
Building upon recent findings regarding the copying of early manuscripts of the Canterbury Tales and the identity of their scribes, this article revisits the question of who was responsible for commissioning and overseeing the production of the Hengwrt and Ellesmere manuscripts. Detailed analysis of the additions and corrections made to the Hengwrt manuscript, as well as the editorial interventions that lie behind the copy of the Canterbury Tales found in Ellesmere, leads to the suggestion that the supervisor responsible for the production of both manuscripts was Thomas Hoccleve.
Knowing and Willing in Chaucer's Parliament of Fowls
Authors: Powrie Sarah 
Published: October 2015

Abstract
Chaucer's Parliament of Fowls muses upon the relation between knowing and desiring, and in so doing, raises questions about the respective roles of the intellect and the will in determining moral action. Reflecting the influence of late medieval voluntarism, the dream vision challenges the classical/Thomistic view that moral virtue results from reason's prudent judgments. Representing a host of avian and human agents motivated by “wil, and herte, and thought” (417), the dream vision asks readers not only to evaluate the rational and affective forces shaping different acts of choice, but also to note the limitations of reason. The bookish narrator's recurrent missteps point to the potential inefficacy of prudent reason, demonstrating that individuals often act against their better judgment. By contrast, the formel's resistance to Reason may signal the moral limits of that faculty, since it lacks the will's receptivity to divine grace.
What Is It to Be Religiously Mistaken? A Pragmatist Perspective
Authors: Zackariasson Ulf 
Published: October 2015

Abstract
philosophers have always been attracted to disagreements, perhaps because they almost immediately lead to philosophically exciting questions about how to distinguish positions, theories, and so forth, that are right from those that are mistaken. Philosophy of religion is certainly no exception, and, here, focus has often been on disagreements over belief in the existence of the God of classical theism as manifested in the great Abrahamic traditions, on the one hand, and atheism, on the other—though disagreements between religious traditions have also attracted attention. Particularly in Anglo- American philosophy of religion, these disagreements have generally been conceptualized in epistemological terms: Which (if any) religious beliefs are epistemically justified or warranted? This is a debate where the philosophical expertise in epistemology seems to have practical application, and over the years, a great number of philosophers have joined it.
Narrativizaciones del yo: los impostores y la construcción del personaje-yo deseado en la sociedad digital
Authors: Montiel Daniel Escandell 
Published: October 2015

La sociedad digital permite la construcción de una o más identidades en sus múltiples espacios virtuales, lo que conlleva una narrativización del yo en todos esos ámbitos: el relato de lo propio como construcción de nuevas identidades y nuevas proyecciones de la identidad propia. Así pues, la construcción de la identidad a través del relato textual o audiovisual en internet ha permitido toda una nueva narrativa de la identidad que, por supuesto, tiene antecedentes en casos reales y en la tradición ficcional y en la frontera entre ambos mundos. Para entender el fenómeno contemporáneo, recorremos una serie de casos representativos y definitorios desde el punto de vista social e histórico en la esfera hispana e internacional con un foco especial en su impacto en la producción cultural contemporánea. Nuestro estudio aborda cómo estos impostores, sus herramientas y sus procedimientos se vinculan con los fenómenos actuales de representación del yo, tanto cuando son con vocación biográfica como ficcional.

Tecidos, linhas e agulhas: uma narrativa para Zuzu Angel
Authors: Simili Ivana Guilherme , Morgado Débora Pinguello 
Published: October 2015

Na década de 1960, enquanto a moda brasileira seguia os padrões europeus, Zuzu Angel proclamava, entre chitas e rendas, “eu sou a moda brasileira”. O conteúdo do texto versa sobre a identificação das contribuições da produção estética de Zuzu Angel na criação de representações para a moda brasileira e também sobre a apropriação de tecidos pouco nobres, de panos usados para a decoração do lar e de trabalhos manuais de linha e agulha na construção de roupas feitas para a elite, o que se constitui em exemplo de reaproveitamento na moda. A metodologia utiliza as roupas como textos-documentos para a narrativa de sua trajetória. Associados à história da moda, das mulheres e aos conteúdos do filme “Zuzu Angel”, desvendamos aspectos da cultura feminina em suas relações com as domesticidades, a vida pública e política nos conturbados anos 1960 e 1970. Com tecidos, linha e agulha, Zuzu escreveu uma história na moda e na luta contra a ditadura civil-militar. Palavras-chave: ANGEL, Zuzu, 1976; Roupas; Moda - Brasil; Política.
Entre el pasado y el presente. Entre lo personal y lo político: Narrativas y apuestas de las ex presas políticas en Uruguay
Authors: De Giorgi Ana Laura 
Published: October 2015

El pasado reciente en el Cono Sur ha sido rememorado e interpretado desde diversos ejes de memoria. En el Uruguay de los últimos años, han emergido los relatos de las militantes, en dialogo y en disputa a la vez, con el relato hegemónico de los varones y su resistencia heroica. En general estas narrativas se han anclado en las “historias mínimas”, la cotidianeidad, el espacio privado (de la cárcel) y en el relato desde “lo femenino”, que osciló entre la presentación de un modo de resistencia diferencial reivindicando la agencia de las mujeres, al relato de la peripecia de la cárcel a través de la experiencia de la maternidad en la prisión. Este artículo pretende analizar dos relatos publicados con dos décadas de distancia: Mi habitación, mi celda (1990) de Lilián Celiberti y Lucy Garrido, y Maternidad en prisión política (2010) coordinado por Graciela Jorge, con el objetivo principal de analizar la apuesta política de sus autoras. El primero es el encuentro de dos mujeres con pasados inmediatos y trayectorias políticas distintas, pero embarcadas en un nuevo proyecto político común: el feminismo. El segundo es el encuentro de varias mujeres provenientes de la izquierda armada que inscriben su peripecia en el relato mayor del colectivo de pertenencia. En este sentido el artículo propone reflexionar sobre las distintas funcionalidades que tuvieron los trabajos de la memoria realizados por mujeres, cuánto visibilizaron un nuevo sujeto o cuánto reubicaron a la mujer en su rol tradicional, es decir, en qué medida las narrativas del pasado, permitieron o no dar nuevas batallas a futuro. Palabras clave: Narrativas; Mujeres; Militantes.
Interacting with an Inferred World: The Challenge of Machine Learning for Humane Computer Interaction
Authors: Blackwell Alan F. 
Published: October 2015

<div class="page" title="Page 1"><div class="layoutArea"><div class="column"><p><span>Classic theories of user interaction have been framed in relation to symbolic models of planning and problem solving, responding in part to the cognitive theories associated with AI research. However, the behavior of modern machine-learning systems is determined by statistical models of the world rather than explicit symbolic descriptions. Users increasingly interact with the world and with others in ways that are mediated by such models. This paper explores the way in which this new generation of technology raises fresh challenges for the critical evaluation of interactive systems. It closes with some proposed measures for the design of inference-based systems that are more open to humane design and use. </span></p></div></div></div>

<div class="page" title="Page 1"><div class="layoutArea"><div class="column"><p><span>We are in a ‘personal data gold rush’ driven by advertising being the primary revenue source for most online companies. These companies accumulate extensive personal data about individuals with minimal concern for us, the subjects of this process.

There is a critical need to provide technologies that enable alternative practices, so that individuals can par- ticipate in the collection, management and consumption of their personal data. In this paper we discuss the Databox, a personal networked device (and associated services) that col- lates and mediates access to personal data, allowing us to re- cover control of our online lives.

Concordance: A Critical Participatory Alternative in Healthcare IT

Published: October 2015

<div class="page" title="Page 1"><div class="layoutArea"><div class="column"><p><span>The healthcare sector is undergoing large changes in which technology is given a more active role in both in-clinic and out-of-clinic care. Authoritative healthcare models such as compliance and adherence which relies on asymmetric patient-doctor relationships are being challenged as society, patient roles and care contexts transforms, for example when care activities move into non-clinical contexts. Concordance is an alternative model proposed by the medical field that favours an equal and collaborative patient-doctor relationship in the negotiation of care. Similarly, HCI researchers have applied diverse models of engagement in IT design ranging from authoritative models (e.g. perceiving people as human factors to design for) to more democratic design processes (e.g. Participatory Design). IT design has also been crafted as on-going processes that are integrated parts of everyday use. Based on the best practice of participation from the medical and the HCI fields, we identify critical alternatives for healthcare design. These alternatives highlight opportunities with ongoing design processes in which the design of care regimens and care IT are perceived as one process. </span></p></div></div></div>
