Purpose To investigate the prognostic value of BRAF V600E mutation for the recurrence of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). Patients and Methods This was a retrospective multicenter study of the relationship between BRAF V600E mutation and recurrence of PTC in 2,099 patients (1,615 women and 484 men), with a median age of 45 years (interquartile range [IQR], 34 to 58 years) and a median follow-up time of 36 months (IQR, 14 to 75 months). Results The overall BRAF V600E mutation prevalence was 48.5% (1,017 of 2,099). PTC recurrence occurred in 20.9% (213 of 1,017) of BRAF V600E mutation–positive and 11.6% (125 of 1,082) of BRAF V600E mutation–negative patients. Recurrence rates were 47.71 (95% CI, 41.72 to 54.57) versus 26.03 (95% CI, 21.85 to 31.02) per 1,000 person-years in BRAF mutation–positive versus –negative patients (P < .001), with a hazard ratio (HR) of 1.82 (95% CI, 1.46 to 2.28), which remained significant in a multivariable model adjusting for patient sex and age at diagnosis, medical center, and various conventional pathologic factors. Significant association between BRAF mutation and PTC recurrence was also found in patients with conventionally low-risk disease stage I or II and micro-PTC and within various subtypes of PTC. For example, in BRAF mutation–positive versus –negative follicular-variant PTC, recurrence occurred in 21.3% (19 of 89) and 7.0% (24 of 342) of patients, respectively, with recurrence rates of 53.84 (95% CI, 34.34 to 84.40) versus 19.47 (95% CI, 13.05 to 29.04) per 1,000 person-years (P < .001) and an HR of 3.20 (95% CI, 1.46 to 7.02) after adjustment for clinicopathologic factors. BRAF mutation was associated with poorer recurrence-free probability in Kaplan-Meier survival analyses in various clinicopathologic categories. Conclusion This large multicenter study demonstrates an independent prognostic value of BRAF V600E mutation for PTC recurrence in various clinicopathologic categories.
Effect of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α induction by CoCl<sub>2</sub> on breast cancer cells survival: influence of cytochrome-c and survivin
Authors: Paramita Reni , Sadikin Mohamad , Sutandyo Noorwati , Wanandi Septelia I. 
Published: October 2014

Background: Tumor tissue usually became hypoxic due to disruption of oxygen supply. Adaptation response to hypoxia is mediated by transcription factor, hypoxia- inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α). HIF-1α signaling is known to increase the expression of pro-apoptotic protein cytochrome-c, and anti- apoptotic survivin. In this study we wanted to analyze the role of HIF-1α on breast cancer cells survival through pro-apoptosis cytohrome-c and anti-apoptosis survivin regulation.Methods: Breast cancer cell lines T47D were induced by CoCl2 then harvested to analyze the expression of HIF-1α, protein cytochrome-c, mRNA survivin and cell viabilities.Results: HIF-1α induction by CoCl2 causes the increase of protein and mRNA of HIF-1α, cytochrome-c protein, and survivin mRNA, but does not cause the changes in cell viability.Conclusion: HIF-1α induction have no effects on breast cancer cell line T47D viabilities due to the balance regulation between pro-apoptosis expression cytochrome-c and anti-apoptosis survivin.
Theatre and friendship: A collaboration with the Prahran Mission St Kilda Drop In Centre
Authors: Popov Bagryana 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
This article outlines an ongoing theatre collaboration between a group of professional artists and participants from the Prahran Mission St Kilda Drop In Centre in Melbourne, which is dedicated to supporting people who live with mental illness. The collaboration began five years ago and so far four projects have been created. The writer is one of the theatre artists. The case story here, presented to the conference Evidence in a Different Form, demonstrates that friendship is central to the artistic process. Friendship is an initial driving force and a result of the projects and is intrinsic to the creative process itself. This evidence suggests that the non-hierarchical and personal quality of the process is an instance of egalitarianism, dissolving divisions between individuals and groups. It suggests that these qualities of the work promote health and have the potential to undo social stigma and isolation.
Art speaking for itself: Evidence that inspires and convinces
Authors: McNiff Shaun 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
The article defines the nature of artistic evidence, and discusses factors that make it convincing, and how it relates to the emerging practice of art-based research. Distinctions are made between scientific and artistic evidence with the goal of furthering a complementary environment for enquiry that appreciates the historic ability of the arts to inform and inspire through their expression.
Evidence in practice: Nurturing aesthetic reflexivity
Authors: Rumbold Bruce 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
This article examines the differing processes involved in forming evidence to guide practice in arts-based and in health-care disciplines. A social theory framework suggests that aesthetic reflexivity can link the rational and affective aspects of practice in both areas. Intentional communities of practice that incorporate both arts and health practitioners can develop evidence that will take into account both health system goals of recovery from illness and social transformational goals of building healthy communities.
Arts and health as an ecopsychological practice: Developing a conversation
Authors: Neville Bernie , Varney Helen 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
What place does therapy have in a world that is facing an ecological emergency? Once we come to see ourselves as cells of the whole system that we call the environment, it becomes impossible to ignore the well-being of the planet as we work to improve our clients’ well-being and our own. Bernie Neville, client-centred ecopsychologist, explains to Helen Varney, public health sociologist, how therapy can be imagined in a larger context, locating it within the ecological way of thinking. For the ecopsychologist and for the sociologist too the experience of the powerful, shared moment in therapy is one that is shared with the wider human community and with the universe itself. If we are looking for evidence of the benefit of arts and health for individuals and their communities, we should look more deeply into such experiences.
Sing-a-long DVD and activity package pilot study with older adults
Authors: Clements-Cortés Amy 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
This study investigated the utilization of an original sing-a-long DVD and activity package titled ‘Sing-A-Long of the 1930s’ to engage older adults’ participation in singing and therapeutic recreation activities. Participants (n=693) included a combination of persons residing and/or working at 25 long-term care facilities, retirement homes and adult day care centres across Canada engaging in a DVD sing-a-long and activity programme for five weeks. Following this experience, participants were individually interviewed or took part in one of 25 focus groups. The results focused on participant, caregiver and DVD facilitator’s perceived benefits and indicate the DVD was successful in engaging older adults with cognitive impairment in singing, social interaction and discussion, participation in meaningful activity, reminiscence, sensory stimulation, and quality of life in aging.
Synthetic activity: Semiosis, conceptualizations and meaning-making in music composition
Authors: Falthin Peter 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
This article is about composition learning of two students in a music programme in upper secondary school with a special regard to how they develop conceptual structures within the musical form of expression and understanding. Semiotics, spectromorphology and cultural historical theory are engaged to discuss the empirical findings that are collected through observation and interview. The compositional task in the study regarded sound-based composition within the field of electroacoustic music, more specifically applying additive synthesis to make raw material for composition, preparatory exercises and finally compositions. Musical meaning-making and compositional creativity were triggered by the encounter of newly learned concepts with internalized and familiar musical thinking. The learning process could be understood in terms of a concept development process (CDP) in language-based learning.
Vodcasting and instrumental practice in secondary school music classes
Authors: Herrera José Palazón , Hayes Andrea Giráldez 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
In the field of education the use of some of the ever-multiplying videos on the Web 2.0, such as those found on YouTube or video podcasts, is a relatively recent phenomenon, which is nevertheless starting to spread rapidly. Vodcasting – Web 2.0 video technology used in this research – is becoming a flexible and powerful tool for the delivery of educational content. Although it is certain that educational experiences using video podcasts are beginning to proliferate in higher education, very few are carried out in secondary schools, and examples in the area of musical education are scarce. The objective of the article is to show – through an action-research methodology – the effectiveness of podcasting/vodcasting in the instrumental performance of secondary school music students, who have used video podcasts for their instrumental training. The data obtained over the course of three academic years, based on video recordings carried out before and after having used video podcasts, highlight the progress in performance results amongst the students who used this tool.
Effect of web conferring on Social Presence in a Face-to-face choral ensemble class
Authors: Stover Sheri , Hambright Grant , Collins Drew 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
Classes where students have opportunities to interact with experts allow students to apply what they have learned and begin to contextualize the content learned in class. The instructor in this face-to-face choir ensemble class used web conferencing to set up a virtual interview with an expert, Dr David Dickau, to allow his students to have the opportunity to have direct contact with a living composer whose music has had a profound influence in the choir ensemble field. The interactive web conference included an interview with the composer, followed by a critique of the choir’s performance of his composition, ‘If Music Be the Food of Love’. Students completed a survey following the web conference session. This study examines the effect of the composer’s virtual visit on students’ understanding and performance of his song. It also looks at students’ recommendations to continue such virtual activities as well as the effect on Social Presence. Results of this case study show that Dr Dickau’s virtual visit had an overwhelmingly positive effect on all of these areas and students strongly recommended the continuation.
Leo’s legacy: Overcoming the success of Furtivos and failure of Río abajo
Authors: Kinder Marsha 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
Although Borau started out making genre films he hoped would have global reach, using strategies pioneered by European film-makers working in Hollywood, he experienced his greatest success with Furtivos (1975), his most exclusively Spanish film. This article explores how he returned to a transnational vision of Spain in Leo (2000), winner of Borau’s first Goya for best direction. Set in contemporary Spain, this melodrama converts the incestuous mother/son relationship from Furtivos into complex relations between a seductive young Leo and her paternalistic East European coach. Dealing with border-crossing, as he had done in Río abajo/On the Line (1984), Leo includes Romanian émigrés within Spain, who evoke the subaltern Romanis associated with Carmen. The narrative model being subverted is not only the Hollywood genre of noir but also the colonizing myth of Carmen, which limited Spaniards to national stereotypes. Drawing on his previous works, Leo demonstrates that transnational film-making is possible within Spain.
Reframing My Dearest Señorita (1971): Queer embodiment and subjectivity through the poetics of cinema
Authors: Gutiérrez Albilla Julián Daniel 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
Featuring a provincial spinster named Adela, who eventually becomes a man named Juan, Jaime de Armiñán’s My Dearest Señorita (Mi querida señorita, produced by José Luis Borau, 1971) became the first Spanish film to deal with the topic of transsexuality. Resorting to allegorical readings, previous scholarship has associated the film’s hermaphrodite with the Francoist cultural and ideological anomaly. While acknowledging the film’s progressive political critique of the Francoist regime, others have seen the protagonist’s eventual integration into heterosexuality as a symptom of the film’s conservative gender and sexual politics. This article moves from a focus on identity politics to an emphasis on queer subjectivity and from an allegorical reading to an emphasis on the film’s revolutionary stylistic choices. I read the film from a queer subject position that points towards a political form of a ‘becoming subjectivity’ that escapes, if only partially, a representational form of politics and the logic of identity. By focussing on seemingly inconsequential fragments and transitory details, this article explores how the film self-referentially mobilizes a queer body and subjectivity at key moments.
Border lives: Borau’s Río abajo/On the Line (1984)
Authors: William Evans Peter , Santaolalla Isabel 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
Set on either side of the Rio Grande, Rio abajo/On theLine (1984), Borau’s powerful border drama, touches on his constant themes of marginality, conflicted relationships, love and violence. It was beset by many problems, and earned mixed reviews in the United States and Spain, but remains a key work in Borau’s film career. This article examines the mise-en-scène and character construction in the light of Borau’s comments that, in Río abajo, his characters are personajes-consecuencia (consequence characters), inseparable from their physical and emotional contexts. An analysis of the challenges faced by border societies on either side of the Rio Grande, and of compromised individuals struggling to reconcile conflicting needs and desires, reveals the formal intricacy and psychological depth of the film.
Clinical criteria to screen for inpatient diagnostic errors: a scoping review
Authors: Shenvi Edna C. , El-Kareh Robert 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
Diagnostic errors are common and costly, but difficult to detect. “Trigger” tools have promise to facilitate detection, but have not been applied specifically for inpatient diagnostic error. We performed a scoping review to collate all individual “trigger” criteria that have been developed or validated that may indicate that an inpatient diagnostic error has occurred. We searched three databases and screened 8568 titles and abstracts to ultimately include 33 articles. We also developed a conceptual framework of diagnostic error outcomes using real clinical scenarios, and used it to categorize the extracted criteria. Of the multiple criteria we found related to inpatient diagnostic error and amenable to automated detection, the most common were death, transfer to a higher level of care, arrest or “code”, and prolonged length of hospital stay. Several others, such as abrupt stoppage of multiple medications or change in procedure, may also be useful. Validation for general adverse event detection was done in 15 studies, but only one performed validation for diagnostic error specifically. Automated detection was used in only two studies. These criteria may be useful for developing diagnostic error detection tools.
Analysis of the Simultaneous Gas–Liquid CO2 Absorption and Liquid–Gas NH3 Desorption in a Hydrometallurgical Waelz Oxides Purification Process
Authors: Wylock C. E. , Antuñano N. , Arias P. L. , Haut B. 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
This work deals with the analysis of the mass transfers taking place in a unit operation of a recently developed hydrometallurgical process. This process is a purification treatment of zinc-rich electric arc furnace dusts to generate high purity zinc oxide. In this operation, gaseous CO2 generated in a furnace is injected in a reactor containing an aqueous solution of ammonia and ammonium carbonate, which is the leaching solution of these dusts, to precipitate zinc carbonates. During the operation, the gas–liquid CO2 absorption is coupled with a simultaneous liquid–gas NH3 desorption and with several reactions in the leaching solution. This paper aims to propose a mathematical model of the coupling between the mass transports and the reactions and to present a simulation tool for the computation of the CO2 absorption, the NH3 desorption rates and their evolutions with the solution composition. The ability of the presented simulation tool to predict the time evolution of the liquid composition during a gas injection is evaluated by comparing simulation results to experimental results. The pH time evolution is used as the comparison criterion and the experiments are carried out at a bench-scale stirred tank reactor. In addition, simulations results showing the influence of the solution composition in conditions representative of the operating conditions on the CO2 absorption and NH3 desorption rates are presented and discussed.
Policy Analysis in Welfare and Policy Spaces: Applications to the Labyrinthine U.S. Ethanol Policy Literature
Authors: Bullock David S. , Couleau Anabelle 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
We discuss the analysis of policy in three “spaces”: the customary (q, p) space, “policy space,” and “welfare space.” Specific advantages of conducting policy analysis in welfare and policy spaces are as follows: (1) it makes clearer the distributional consequences of policy change instead of focusing solely on the aggregate welfare consequences of policy change; (2) it facilitates covering a very wide array of available policy options, instead of examining just a few; (3) it is a powerful tool for analyzing the effects of simultaneous use of multiple policy instruments; and (4) it clarifies what it means for policies to be more/less “efficient,” and for policy instruments to make each other more/less “efficient.” We demonstrate the usefulness of our framework in comparing and critiquing various conclusions recently expressed in the U.S. ethanol policy literature.
Triple Disjunctivism, Naive Realism, and Anti-representationalism
Authors: Johansson Ingvar 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
Contemporary defenders of non-disjunctivism take a representationalist philosophy of mind for granted; all kinds of conscious intentional states/acts/events are automatically regarded as being representations. The paper presents an alternative anti-representationalist view of the mind. It differs from other present-day anti-representationalisms in arguing that all conscious phenomena contains a this-worldly something called “from-pole”, and it denies that an intentional content and the corresponding intentional object always are distinct entities. The view is set in contrast to both a transcendental ego tradition and a no from-pole tradition. Hereby, the paper defends the common sense-like view that we are persons who directly perceive, act in, and talk about things in a common world.
Consciousness and Intentionality
Authors: Addis Laird 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
The thesis is that conscious states and intentional states are the same things, although the property that makes a state a conscious state is different from the property that makes it an intentional state. Against those who say that sensations such as pains are conscious but not intentional states, it is argued that they are in fact intentional states. Against those who say dispositional mental states such as beliefs are intentional states but not conscious states, it is argued that they are in fact not intentional states. It is further argued that those unconscious mental states that are not merely dispositional mental states are, in the relevant sense, conscious states and therefore also intentional states. The argument is conducted within the framework of a briefly summarized ontology of mind.
The Nominalist’s Gambit and the Structure of Predication
Authors: Calemi Francesco F. 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
Call the realist thesis that the truth of statements of the form “a is F” entails the existence of properties only via the schema “a is F iff a instantiates F-ness” introductionism; call the nominalist thesis that the schema “a is F iff a instantiates F-ness” doesn’t really introduce properties into the domain of discourse anti-introductionism. I’ll show that both introductionism and anti-introductionism presuppose two crucial assumptions concerning abstract singular terms and predicates, that in turn constitute the pivots of an (allegedly) cogent argument against realism, that is the so-called nominalist’s gambit. Moreover, moving from the phenomenon that I’ll call property-anaphora, I hold that these presuppositions are reciprocally incompatible. I’ll conclude that introductionism and anti-introductionism are positions based on an inconsistent ground, and that the nominalist’s gambit is without force.
„Schonungsloses Handeln gegen den bösartigen Feind“
Authors: Guerrazzi Amedeo Osti 
Published: October 2014

Vorspann
In Italien hat sich lange Zeit der beruhigende Mythos erhalten, das Land und seine Soldaten seien anders als das nationalsozialistische Deutschland ohne die Hypothek brutaler Besatzungsherrschaft oder gar Kriegsverbrechen aus dem globalen Konflikt zwischen 1939 und 1945 hervorgegangen. Erst in den letzten Jahren hat eine jüngere Historikergeneration den italienischen Anteil am faschistischen Krieg hervorgehoben. Zu diesen Historikern gehört auch Amedeo Osti Guerrazzi, der am Beispiel der Division „Granatieri di Sardegna“ die italienische Kriegführung und Besatzungspraxis in Slowenien nachzeichnet. Dabei ergeben sich insbesondere, was die Bekämpfung der Partisanen angeht, überraschende Einblicke und Perspektiven. Gab es auch im italienischen Heer verbrecherische Befehle?
Theodor Eschenburg und der Raub jüdischer Vermögen 1938/39
Authors: Eisfeld Rainer 
Published: October 2014

Vorspann
„Wir alle waren Gegner des Regimes, mussten aber um der Arbeit und des Überlebens willen unser Auskommen mit den Machthabern und ihren Stellen suchen“, schrieb Theodor Eschenburg 1987 über seine berufliche Tätigkeit im „Dritten Reich“. Wie weit kam Eschenburg dem Regime dabei entgegen? Welche Konzessionen machte er als Verbandsgeschäftsführer und Leiter industrieller Prüfungsstellen dem zunehmend rassistischen NS-Staat? Die darüber entbrannte Kontroverse hat bislang noch keine Klarheit geschaffen. Inzwischen hat sich herausgestellt, dass Eschenburg nicht nur an einem einzigen „Arisierungs“-Fall beteiligt war. Nach dem „Anschluss“ Österreichs war er in zwei weitere Enteignungen jüdischer Unternehmer involviert. Ein vierter und fünfter Fall zeichnen sich ab. Wie in den neu aufgefundenen und hier erstmals präsentierten Dokumenten deutlich wird, gehörte die Mitwirkung an der sozialen Diskriminierung und wirtschaftlichen Ausplünderung deutscher wie österreichischer Juden zur Routine der von Eschenburg geleiteten Geschäftsstellen.
