The Cost of Detecting Deception: Judging Veracity Makes Eyewitnesses Remember a Suspect Less Accurately but With More Certainty
Authors: Pickel Kerri L. , Klauser Brittney M. , Bauer Heather M. 
Published: December 2013

SummaryThe current study extends previous research demonstrating the detrimental effects of divided attention during encoding on eyewitness memory. Previous data indicate that judging the veracity of a suspect causes witnesses to scrutinize him or her carefully and requires relatively high cognitive effort. We therefore hypothesized that performing this task while simultaneously observing the suspect should impair witnesses' memory for his or her appearance and message while ironically inflating their certainty and other testimony‐relevant judgments. Our results supported these predictions. Moreover, inducing witnesses to be suspicious about the suspect's truthfulness (Experiment 1) and motivating them to judge veracity as accurately as possible (Experiment 2) amplified the memory impairment effect and further increased several testimony‐relevant ratings. Additionally, compared with witnesses who incorrectly identified the suspect in a line‐up, those who made a correct decision expressed greater certainty about their line‐up accuracy and also provided higher ratings on some other testimony‐relevant measures.

Characterizing the nature of home care work and occupational hazards: A Developmental intervention study
Authors: Markkanen Pia , Quinn Margaret , Galligan Catherine , Sama Susan , Brouillette Natalie , Okyere Daniel 
Published: December 2013

AbstractBackgroundHome care (HC) aide is the fastest growing occupation, yet job hazards are under‐studied. This study documents the context of HC aide work, characterizes occupational safety and health (OSH) hazards, and identifies preventive interventions using qualitative methods.MethodsWe conducted 12 focus groups among aides and 26 in‐depth interviews comprising 15 HC agency, union, and insurance company representatives as well as 11 HC recipients in Massachusetts. All focus groups and interviews were audio‐recorded, transcribed, and coded with NVIVO software.ResultsMajor OSH concerns were musculoskeletal disorders from client care tasks and verbal abuse. Performing tasks beyond specified job duties may be an OSH risk factor. HC aides' safety and clients' safety are closely linked. Client handling devices, client evaluation, care plan development, and training are key interventions for both aides' and clients' safety.ConclusionsPromoting OSH in HC is essential for maintaining a viable workforce.

Published: December 2013

CaseAlcoholic ketoacidosis (AKA) usually occurs in patients with a history of prolonged alcohol abuse and recent binge drinking followed by abrupt cessation of alcohol consumption.OutcomeA 61‐year‐old man was brought to our emergency department. He had a history of eating barbecued beef with beer the previous night. He had unexplained hypoglycemia with high anion gap metabolic acidosis and fatty liver, and we strongly suspected AKA. After hydration with saline solution, dextrose, and thiamine, given i.v., his metabolic acidosis rapidly improved. A history of alcohol abuse and high serum β‐hydroxybutyrate concentration were subsequently confirmed, and the diagnosis of AKA was finally made.ConclusionOur case suggests that a high‐fat meal can induce AKA without abrupt cessation of alcohol consumption and that AKA should be considered when encountering patients with unexplained high anion gap metabolic acidosis with hypoglycemia and fatty liver, even if the past history of alcohol abuse is unknown.

Published: December 2013

AbstractAn acrylate‐functional soybean oil‐based macromonomer (SoyAA‐1) was synthesized in high yields utilizing sequential amidation and acrylation processes to serve as an internal plasticizer in emulsion polymers. The structure and structure–property relationships of this unique macromonomer were validated with FTIR, NMR, and LC‐MS. The viability of SoyAA‐1 as a comonomer in emulsion polymerization was established via copolymerization with methyl methacrylate (MMA) at varying copolymer weight compositions. The effect of increasing SoyAA‐1 levels and concomitantly higher allylic functionality was measured through film coalescence, minimum film forming temperature, and initial and progressively increasing glass transition temperature(s). The results indicate that synthetic modification of a renewable resource, soybean oil, can yield a valuable monomer that can be copolymerized in high yields via emulsion polymerization to produce practical and mechanically stable latexes for a variety of coatings applications. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

vglut2 and gad expression reveal distinct patterns of dual GABAergic versus glutamatergic cotransmitter phenotypes of dopaminergic and noradrenergic neurons in the zebrafish brain
Authors: Filippi Alida , Mueller Thomas , Driever Wolfgang 
Published: December 2013

ABSTRACTThroughout the vertebrate lineage, dopaminergic neurons form important neuromodulatory systems that influence motor behavior, mood, cognition, and physiology. Studies in mammals have established that dopaminergic neurons often use γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) or glutamatergic cotransmission during development and physiological function. Here, we analyze vglut2, gad1b and gad2 expression in combination with tyrosine hydroxylase immunoreactivity in 4‐day‐old larval and 30‐day‐old juvenile zebrafish brains to determine which dopaminergic and noradrenergic groups may use GABA or glutamate as a second transmitter. Our results show that most dopaminergic neurons also express GABAergic markers, including the dopaminergic groups of the olfactory bulb (homologous to mammalian A16) and the subpallium, the hypothalamic groups (A12, A14), the prethalamic zona incerta group (A13), the preoptic groups (A15), and the pretectal group. Thus, the majority of catecholaminergic neurons are gad1b/2‐positive and coexpress GABA. A very few gad1/2‐negative dopaminergic groups, however, express vglut2 instead and use glutamate as a second transmitter. These glutamatergic dual transmitter phenotypes are the Orthopedia transcription factor–dependent, A11‐type dopaminergic neurons of the posterior tuberculum. All together, our results demonstrate that all catecholaminergic groups in zebrafish are either GABAergic or glutamatergic. Thus, cotransmission of dopamine and noradrenaline with either GABA or glutamate appears to be a regular feature of zebrafish catecholaminergic systems. We compare our results with those that have been described for mammalian systems, discuss the phenomenon of transmitter dualism in the context of developmental specification of GABAergic and glutamatergic regions in the brain, and put this phenomenon in an evolutionary perspective.

A lightweight software fault‐tolerance system in the cloud environment
Authors: Chen Gang , Jin Hai , Zou Deqing , Zhou Bing Bing , Qiang Weizhong 
Published: December 2013

SummaryWith the development of cloud computing, the demand of high availability for services is growing. Unfortunately, software failures greatly reduce system availability. This paper presents a lightweight software fault‐tolerance system, called SHelp, which can effectively recover programs from many types of software bugs in the cloud environment. With error virtualization techniques, it proposes ‘weighted’ rescue points techniques to effectively survive software failures through bypassing the faulty path. For multiple application instances running on different virtual machine, a three‐level storage hierarchy with several comprehensive cache updating algorithms for rescue points management is adopted to share error handling information. On the one hand, SHelp can reduce the redundancy for multiple application instances; on the other hand, it can more effectively and quickly recover from faults caused by the same bugs. A Linux prototype is implemented on an open‐source virtual machine monitor platform, Xen, and evaluated using four Web server applications that contain various types of bugs. The experimental results show that SHelp can recover server applications from these bugs in just a few seconds with modest performance overhead. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Spatial quantitation of FISH signals in diploid versus aneuploid nuclei
Authors: Shete Amol , Rao Pulivarthi , Pati Debananda , Merchant Fatima 
Published: December 2013

AbstractFluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is the most widely used molecular technique to visualize chromosomal abnormalities. Here, we describe a novel 3D modeling approach to allow precise shape estimation and localization of FISH signals in the nucleus of human embryonic stem cells (hES) undergoing progressive but defined aneuploidy. The hES cell line WA09 acquires an extra copy of chromosome 12 in culture with increasing passages. Both diploid and aneuploid nuclei were analyzed to quantitate the differences in the localization of centromeric FISH signals for chromosome 12 as it transitions from euploidy to aneuploidy. We employed superquadric modeling primitives coupled with principal component analysis to determine the 3D position of FISH signals within the nucleus. A novel aspect of our modeling approach is that it allows comparison of FISH signals across multiple cells by normalizing the position of the centromeric signals relative to a reference landmark in oriented nuclei. Using this model we present evidence of changes in the relative positioning of centromeres in trisomy‐12 cells when compared with diploid cells from the same population. Our analysis also suggests a significant change in the spatial distribution of at least one of the FISH signals in the aneuploid chromosome complements implicating that an overall change in centromere position may occur in trisomy‐12 due to the addition of an extra chromosome. These studies underscore the unique utility of our modeling algorithms in quantifying FISH signals in three dimensions. © 2013 International Society for Advancement of Cytometry
One‐Step Stereoselective Synthesis of (2Z,4Z,6Z,8Z)‐Decatetraene Diketone from Pyrylium Salts

Published: December 2013

AbstractA strategy for the stereoselective synthesis of (2Z,4Z,6Z,8Z)‐decatetraene diketone by the one‐step metal reduction of pyrylium salts is described. Reduction of α‐active pyrylium salts (at least one H at the α‐C positon) leads to only linear decatetraene diketone derivatives, whereas reduction of α‐non‐active pyrylium salts (no H at the α‐C position) generates two unexpected structures and one linear decatetraene diketone. The reaction conditions were optimized, and a reaction mechanism was proposed. Single‐crystal structures of decatetraene diketone derivatives demonstrate the twisted configuration of the backbones and the all‐(Z) geometry of the double bonds. In addition, the thermal, optical, and electrochemical properties of these compounds were studied in detail.
Cross‐validation based assessment of a new Bayesian palaeoclimate model
Authors: Mukhopadhyay S. , Bhattacharya S. 
Published: December 2013

AbstractFossil‐based palaeoclimate reconstruction is an important area of ecological science that has gained momentum in the backdrop of the global climate change debate. The hierarchical Bayesian paradigm provides an interesting platform for studying such important scientific issue. However, our cross‐validation based assessment of the existing Bayesian hierarchical models with respect to two modern proxy data sets based on chironomid and pollen, respectively, revealed that the models are inadequate for the data sets.In this paper, we model the species assemblages (compositional data) by the zero‐inflated multinomial distribution while modelling the species response functions using Dirichlet process‐based Gaussian mixtures. This modelling strategy yielded significantly improved performances, and a formal Bayesian test of model adequacy, developed recently, showed that our new model is adequate for both the modern data sets. Furthermore, combining together the zero‐inflated assumption, Importance Resampling Markov Chain Monte Carlo (IRMCMC) and the recently developed Transformation‐based Markov Chain Monte Carlo (TMCMC), we develop a powerful and efficient computational methodology.

Improving the selection of true incident cases of low back pain by screening retrospective administrative data
Authors: Beaudet N. , Courteau J. , Sarret P. , Vanasse A. 
Published: December 2013

AbstractBackgroundThe difficulty in identifying the onset of low back pain (LBP) limits the capacity to determine the incidence of LBP at the population level and, further, to identify risk factors. In the literature, incidence cohorts have been built with patients initially considered LBP‐free for 6–12 months prior to their selection. This ‘clearance period’ might not be sufficient to exclude recurrent patients having experienced previous LBP episodes and might result in a misclassification bias.MethodsUsing the Canadian province of Quebec's medical administrative physicians' claims database, a cohort of prevalent claims‐based recurrent LBP patients was built for 2007. The medical history of 81,329 patients was screened for a period of 11 years. Positive predictive values (PPVs), kappa statistics and a survival function were calculated to determine the optimal clearance period for capturing first‐time events.ResultsThe 2007 annual incidence of adult claims‐based recurrent LBP was estimated at 242 per 100,000 persons. Men between 18 and 34 years of age were found to be 1.18 times more at risk than their counterparts. Altogether, the elderly (over 80 years) had 52% more new cases than the 18–34 age group. A very good convergence for PPV and kappa was found for a 7‐year clearance period. This allowed determining the annual incidence from 2000 to 2007, showing a decrease of 26%.ConclusionScreening the medical history of LBP patients can provide more accurate incidence estimates by limiting the over‐ascertainment of first‐time LBP patients. A 4‐ to 7‐year clearance period should be considered.

Published: December 2013

AbstractThis article examines the issues pertaining to ownership and control of U.S. firms at their initial public offering (IPO). Several recent Wall Street Journal articles have discussed the potential advantages and disadvantages of company founders using dual‐class shares at the IPO to maintain control of the firms they have created. If dual‐class shares are not offered, the management of the company needs to de‐termine what percentage of company shares should be sold at the IPO. The authors discuss the pros and cons associated with dual‐class shares for a firm. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
The Intersection of Emotional Intelligence and Corporate Financial Decision Making

Published: December 2013

PurposeTo compare four imaging approaches in cirrhotic estimation; pre‐enhancement T1 relaxation time (T1RT), reduction rate (RR) of T1RT, signal‐based liver‐to‐muscle ratio (L/M ratio) on gadolinium ethoxybenzyl diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (Gd‐EOB‐DTPA)‐enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and liver stiffness measurement (LSM) of US elastography.Materials and MethodsConsecutive 58 patients with chronic liver diseases who underwent both Gd‐EOB‐DTPA‐enhanced MRI and FibroScan were analyzed. Four imaging approaches were evaluated by fibrosis score from liver biopsy and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis.ResultsRR was found to be inversely correlated with LSM (r = −0.65). RR decreased with degree of fibrosis (F0‐F1, 58.5 ± 6.2%, versus F2‐F3‐F4, 48.8 ± 11.7%, P = 0.010, F0‐F1‐F2, 58.2 ± 6.2% versus F3‐F4, 45.5 ± 12.3%, P = 0.010 and F0‐F1, 58.5 ± 6.2%, versus F2‐F3, 52.1 ± 12.0%, P = 0.0038). LSM increased with degree of fibrosis (F0‐F1, 5.4 ± 2.2 kPa versus F2‐F3‐F3, 19.3 ± 15.5 kPa, P = 0.0011 and F0‐F1‐F2, 6.8 ± 3.6 kPa versus F3‐F4, 23.8 ± 17.1 kPa, P = 0.0029 and F0‐F1, 5.4 ± 2.2 kPa, versus F2‐F3, 11.4 ± 7.2 kPa, P = 0.0098). Area under ROC curves were 0.83 (F3‐F4), 0.72 (F2‐F3‐F4), 0.68 (F2‐F3) for RR and 0.83 (F3‐F4), 0.88 (F2‐F3‐F4), 0.81 (F2‐F3) for LSM in discriminating between patients with fibrosis.ConclusionThe capability by LSM was better than those by RR of T1RT, pre‐enhancement T1RT, and L/M ratio to differentiate F ≥ 2, but LSM and RR of T1RT showed the same value to differentiate F ≥ 3.

Fish oil in comparison to folinic acid for protection against adverse effects of methotrexate chemotherapy on bone
Authors: Raghu Nadhanan Rethi , Fan Chia‐Ming , Su Yu‐Wen , Howe Peter R.C. , Xian Cory J. 
Published: December 2013

ABSTRACTMethotrexate (MTX) chemotherapy is known to cause bone loss which lacks specific preventative treatments, although clinically folinic acid is often used to reduce MTX toxicity in soft tissues. This study investigated damaging effects of MTX injections (0.75 mg/kg/day for 5 days) in rats and potential protective benefits of fish oil (0.25, 0.5, or 0.75 ml/100 g/day) in comparison to folinic acid (0.75 mg/kg) in the tibial metaphysis. MTX treatment significantly reduced height of primary spongiosa and volume of trabecular bone while reducing density of osteoblasts. Consistently, MTX reduced osteogenic differentiation but increased adipogenesis of bone marrow stromal cells, accompanied by lower mRNA expression of osteogenic transcription factors Runx2 and Osx, but an up‐regulation of adipogenesis‐related genes FABP4 and PPAR‐γ. MTX also increased osteoclast density, bone marrow osteoclast formation, and mRNA expression of proinflammatory cytokines IL‐1, IL‐6, TNF‐α, and RANKL/OPG ratio in bone. Fish oil (0.5 or 0.75 ml/100 g) or folinic acid supplementation preserved bone volume, osteoblast density, and osteogenic differentiation, and suppressed MTX‐induced cytokine expression, osteoclastogenesis, and adipogenesis. Thus, fish oil at 0.5 ml/100 g or above is as effective as folinic acid in counteracting MTX‐induced bone damage, conserving bone formation, suppressing resorption and marrow adiposity, suggesting its therapeutic potential in preventing bone loss during MTX chemotherapy. © 2013 Orthopaedic Research Society.

Published: December 2013

AbstractTo promote and maintain health in agricultural and food systems, appropriate criteria are needed for the description and assessment of the health of soils, plants, animals, humans and ecosystems. Here we identify the concept of resilience as a universally applicable and fundamentally important criterion of health in all relevant areas of agriculture. We discuss definitions of resilience for soils, plants, animals, humans and ecosystems, and explore ways in which resilience can be applied as a criterion of health in different agricultural contexts. We show how and why resilience can be seen as a key criterion of health. Based on this, we discuss how resilience can be used as a link between soil, plant, animal, human and ecosystem health. Finally, we highlight four key areas for future research on resilience in agriculture, namely spatial and temporal scaling of resilience; effects of diversity; the role of networks for resilience; and stakeholder involvement. © 2013 Society of Chemical Industry

Published: December 2013

Objectives1) Characterize the current presentation of pediatric temporal bone fractures, 2) compare two classification schemes for temporal bone fractures and illustrate complications in each fracture type.DesignRetrospective medical record review.SettingTertiary‐care, academic children's hospital.PatientsAll children presenting from 1999 to 2009 with CT‐proven temporal bone fracture and audiology examination with follow‐up.InterventionAll CT scans were reinterpreted by a dedicated head and neck radiologist. All fractures were characterized as otic capsule sparing (OCS) or otic capsule violating (OCV), as well as transverse (T) or longitudinal (L).OutcomeCT findings, mechanisms of injury, sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), conductive hearing loss (CHL), and facial nerve injury (FNI).ResultsSeventy‐one children met inclusion criteria. Fifty‐four (76%) children had longitudinal fractures versus 17 (24%) with transverse fractures. Sixty‐four (90%) had OCS versus 7 (10%) with OCV. The otic capsule was involved in 7.4% of longitudinal fractures and 17.6% of transverse fractures. Eleven (15%) had facial weakness, 72% of whom had a visualized fracture through the facial nerve course. SNHL was detected in 14 (20%) patients and CHL in 17(23.9%). All patients with fractures classified as both transverse and OCV had SNHL. The OCS versus OCV and T versus L classification schemes were directly compared for statistical significance in predicting SNHL, CHL, and FNI using the Fisher's exact test. Both OCS/OCV and T/L were predictors of SNHL (P = .0025 and P = .0143, respectively), but the OCS/OCV scheme was more accurate. Neither classification significantly predicted CHL or FNI (P = .787 versus .825; P = .705 vs. .755).ConclusionsIn this pediatric series, approximately 75% of the fractures are longitudinal and 25% are transverse. The otic capsule is spared in 90% and violated in 10%. Both OCS/OCV and L/T classification schemes predict SNHL, but the OCV/OCS scheme is more accurate in this prediction. Although the negative predictive value of the two schemes is similar, the positive predictive value is higher with the OCS/OCV system. The presence of conductive hearing loss and facial nerve symptoms was not predicted by either classification system.Level of Evidence: 2b. Laryngoscope, 124:781–784, 2014
