Initial Experience with Combination Digital Breast Tomosynthesis Plus Full Field Digital Mammography or Full Field Digital Mammography Alone in the Screening Environment
Authors: Destounis Stamatia , Arieno Andrea , Morgan Renee 
Published: February 2014

Objectives:
Initial review of patients undergoing screening mammography imaged with a combination of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) plus full field digital mammography (FFDM) compared with FFDM alone.

Materials and Methods:
From June 2011 to December 2011, all patients presenting for routine screening mammography were offered a combination DBT plus FFDM exam. Under institutional review board approval, we reviewed 524 patients who opted for combination DBT plus FFDM and selected a sample group of 524 FFDM screening exams from the same time period for a comparative analysis. The χ2 (Chi-square) test was used to compare recall rates, breast density, personal history of breast cancer, and family history of breast cancer between the two groups.

Results:
Recall rate for FFDM, 11.45%, was significantly higher (P < 0001) than in the combination DBT plus FFDM group (4.20%). The biopsy rate in the FFDM group was 2.29% (12/524), with a cancer detection rate of 0.38% (2/524, or 3.8 per 1000) and positive predictive value (PPV) of 16.7% (2/12). The biopsy rate for the DBT plus FFDM group was 1.14% (n = 6/524), with a cancer detection rate 0.57% (n = 3/524, or 5.7 per 1000) and PPV of 50.0% (n = 3/6). Personal history of breast cancer in the FFDM group was significantly lower (P < 0.0001) than in the combination DBT plus FFDM group; 2.5% and 5.7%, respectively. A significant difference in family history of breast cancer (P < 0.0001) was found, with a higher rate in the combination DBT plus FFDM group (36.0% vs. 53.8%). There was a significant difference between the combination DBT plus FFDM group and FFDM alone group, when comparing breast density (P < 0.0147, 61.64% vs. 54.20% dense breasts, respectively) with a higher rate of dense breasts in the DBT plus FFDM group. In follow-up, one cancer was detected within one year of normal screening mammogram in the combination DBT plus FFDM group.

Conclusion:
Our initial experience found the recall rate in the combination DBT plus FFDM group was significantly lower than in the FFDM alone group, despite the fact that the combination DBT plus FFDM group had additional risk factors.
Proving the Effectiveness of Community Occupational Therapy in the Equipment and Adaptation Setting Using the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure
Authors: Davis Rowena , Rodd Rebecca 
Published: February 2014

The Community Occupational Therapy Service (Equipment and Adaptations) at Worcestershire Health and Care National Health Service Trust, Redditch and Bromsgrove Locality identified the need to find an outcome measure that would determine its effectiveness. The Canadian Occupational Performance Measure was chosen as a client-centred, reliable, and validated outcome measure that was integrated within existing paperwork. The process followed is outlined in this practice analysis. The service completed 1,869 Canadian Occupational Performance Measure scores, which showed a statistically significant increase in client ratings of performance and satisfaction in 90% of clients, illustrating the effectiveness of the service. The aim of this practice analysis is to explain the process that this service followed to integrate the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure into practice and, thus, share the benefit of using it as an outcome measure with colleagues who work in a similar setting. The authors highlight the importance of continuing with the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure and look to develop its use further.
Relationships between Interest, Current, and Future Participation in Activities: Japanese Interest Checklist for the Elderly
Authors: Nakamura-Thomas Hiromi , Kyougoku Makoto , Forsyth Kirsty 
Published: February 2014

Introduction: This study examined the relationship between interest, current participation, and desire for future participation in each activity listed in the Japanese Interest Checklist for the Elderly. Method: Data were collected from 375 community-dwelling older Japanese people through individual interviews using the revised Japanese Interest Checklist for the Elderly, which contains 25 activities. Responses in interest, current participation, and desire for future participation were analysed across activity and gender. Findings: Interest, current participation, and desire for future participation in activities correlated significantly and positively for both genders. Three different situations were identified: (1) participants could not currently participate in activities despite showing interest; (2) they were not currently engaged in activities but wished to participate them in the future; and (3) they preferred not to participate in the specific activities in the future, despite currently showing interest. Conclusion: There is a need for occupational therapists, therefore, to understand these findings in considering appropriate therapeutic options. Moreover, occupational therapists need to determine whether the person prefers not to participate in some activities, despite showing interest and/or participation in interests more generally.
Assemblages of Anarchists:
Authors: Ferguson Kathy E. 
Published: February 2014

ABSTRACT
This article looks at the journal Mother Earth, a journal printed by Emma Goldman. Arguing that readers and viewers, as aesthetic subjects, are not pre-given individuals who then pick up a journal, this article maintains that audience members are themselves events, that they emerge from within the available opportunities to look and to read. Anarchist journals allowed aesthetic subjects to emerge, perhaps to thrive, through the process of self-creation and the making of a collective sensibility of resistance and hope.
Revolution Is Creativity:
Authors: Gurianova Nina 
Published: February 2014

ABSTRACT
Interconnections between art, politics, aesthetics and ethics are a long-standing feature of Russian civil society, and this is particularly true during the tumultuous era of Russian revolution (1917–18). In this article I am examining the social and cultural politics of the two Moscow anarchist publications, the unique issue of a journal Revolutsionnoe Tvorchestvo (Revolutionary Creativity), and newspaper Anarkhiia (Anarchy) published by Moscow Federation of Anarchist Groups, and the role of the avant-garde artists in the paper. The cultural and political symbolism of creative activity was integral to the political philosophy of Anarkhiia. Contributions from avant-garde artists and poets in the “Creativity” section of Anarkhiia are very significant: these artists had never participated in such a controversial forum before. Their involvement indicates they not only perceived the Russian Revolution through the prism of anarchist aesthetics as a path “to the new limit” (Malevich's formulation), they openly associated these aesthetics with the movement's political agenda.
Pragmatic Naturalism and Social Cooperation
Authors: Schulkin Jay 
Published: February 2014

ABSTRACT
A profound sense of biological explanations and the social nature of our species were appreciated by Chauncey Wright and American classical pragmatists. Inquiry was understood in the context of social cooperation. One achievement in the evolution of cephalic function is the development of social cooperative behaviors, the cornerstone of our cultural productivity. Classical pragmatism is linked to an expanding sense of human capability, tied to the deepening of human experience. While pragmatism is open-ended, the limits of human function put our advances into a perspective in which the evolution of function is just as apparent as the devolution of function.
Red Land/Black Land
Authors: Watrall Ethan 
Published: February 2014

AbstractWhile digital games are used for health intervention, language training, and science learning, there are few instances of games being used to teach archaeology. This is a missed opportunity, as narratives of exploration and discovery make archaeology well suited to digital games. This article discusses Red Land/Black Land, a prototype Civilization V mod (modification of an existing game) that allows players to explore both the process of cultural change in ancient Egypt and the construction of archaeological knowledge about ancient Egypt. As a case study of scholarly game design, the article explores the project’s development. Included is a discussion of play mechanics, the merits and process of modding, and the resources required to build games in academic environments. The article also discusses preliminary efforts to test the game in an undergraduate classroom. Ultimately, the article argues that digital games are powerful tools for communicating archaeology. Instead of falling under the glamour of commercial games, however, scholars should adopt cost effective approaches to game design, looking to mobile play, alternate reality games, modding, and browser based games to realize their vision. The article also argues that the actual process of designing a game is an excellent tool to teach archaeology.
Fire Intensity Assessment through the Analysis of Artifacts and Building Materials
Authors: Inomata Takeshi 
Published: February 2014

AbstractDifferent types of artifacts and building materials react in varying manners to heat exposure, and the analysis of their degrees and patterns of thermal alterations provide important clues to the intensity of fire to which they were subjected. Such data allow researchers to examine the presence or absence of a building fire, the quantity of fuel, and the intentional or accidental nature of the fire. This approach is particularly important in the tropical lowlands, where evidence of fire in the forms of charcoal and ash may not be well preserved. At the rapidly abandoned site of Aguateca, Guatemala, the amount of charcoal and ash was small, but the examination of numerous artifacts left in situ and of building materials identified clear evidence that many buildings were burned at the time of abandonment. Similar lines of evidence were also found in artifact-poor, gradually abandoned structures at Ceibal, Guatemala. These results suggest the possibility that the burning of structures at the time of abandonment may have been more common in the Maya Lowlands than generally thought.
Spanish History in The Fairy Country: Dealing with Social Trauma in 'Pan's Labyrinth'
Authors: Fernández Alvaro 
Published: February 2014

Resumen: La celebrada El laberinto del fauno (Del Toro, 2006) pone en escena un cuento de hadas situado en los convulsos tiempos de la primera posguerra civil española. La crítica ha señalado las dificultades para evaluar la conflictiva relación entre historia y fantasía en el ambiguo final feliz de la película, y ha tratado de relacionar la moraleja final con el trauma de la Guerra Civil.En este trabajo, preferimos leer el film a la luz de otro trauma social, el que marca el momento de su producción. Si tenemos en cuenta que la Transición de una dictadura fascista a una monarquía parlamentaria no ha sido abierta ni pacíficamente debatida en las décadas siguientes y que cierto silencio sobre este tema persiste todavía hoy; es posible entender la película como una forma de abordar algunos asuntos pendientes de la cultura española contemporánea.Palabras Clave: Laberinto del Fauno, Del Toro, Trauma Social, Memoria Histórica, Transición Española, Cultura Española.Abstract: The successful film El laberinto del fauno (Del Toro, 2006) presents a fairy tale set in the convulsive times of the Spanish Civil War’s aftermath. The scholarship on this film already established the difficulties inherent in evaluating the conflictive relation between history and fantasy in the movie’s ambiguous happy ending and has tried to relate the film's moral with the social trauma of the Civil War. In this essay, we chose to read the film in the light of another social trauma, that which marked the moment of its production. Considering that the Transition from a fascist dictatorship to a parliamentary monarchy has not been openly and peacefully discussed in the subsequent decades, and that a tense silence in regards to this topic continues to this very day, it is possible to understand the movie as an attempt to address some unfinished business in contemporary Spanish culture. Key Words: Pan’s Labyrinth, Del Toro, Social Trauma, Historical Memory, Spanish Transition, Spanish Culture.
De las experiencias y cruces en el discurso de la memoria: de la involuntaria en Proust a la del Polidor en '62/ Modelo para armar' de Cortázar
Authors: Dulou Jérôme 
Published: February 2014

Resumen Este trabajo propone un análisis intertextual de las primeras páginas de la novela de Julio Cortázar, 62/Modelo para armar. Intenta poner en evidencia un diálogo con el autor francés Marcel Proust, cruzando el discurso proustiano sobre la memoria con el de la experiencia vivida por el personaje principal de la novela en el restaurante Polidor. Al describir con precisión como Juan vive la experiencia del Polidor y al compararla con las que vive el Narrador en Le Temps retrouvé, este trabajo intentará exponer el diálogo que se establece en estas páginas sobre temas literarios tan relevantes como los recuerdos, las asociaciones analógicas de imágenes, la inteligencia y las metáforas. Palabras clave: Cortázar, Proust, discurso, experiencia, memoria Abstract This work proposes an intertextual analysis of the first pages of the novel of Julio Cortázar, 62/Modelo para armar. It tries to bring to light a dialog with the French author Marcel Proust, crossing the proustian speech on the memory with that of the experience lived by the main character of the novel in the restaurant Polidor. By describing accurately as Juan lives the experience of the Polidor and by comparing it with those that the Narrator lives in Le Temps retrouvé, this work intends to expose the dialog which is established in these pages around literary topics so relevant as recollections, analogical associations of images, intelligence and metaphors.

'Nostalgia de la luz' de Patricio Guzmán: el cine como máquina del tiempo
Authors: Vitullo Julieta 
Published: February 2014

Resumen: En su último documental, Nostalgia de la luz (2010), el cineasta chileno Patricio Guzmán va más allá de la concepción de filmes anteriores en los que utilizaba la memoria como tema y motor de los relatos. Ya no se trata solamente de un uso de la memoria como mecanismo para revisitar el pasado, entender el presente y construir el futuro. Ahora el cine como artificio que posibilita metáforas y abre caminos para un viaje por el tiempo se presenta como una máquina de indagación y sondeo, capaz de intervenir sobre los anclajes materiales de la memoria. En este documental, Guzmán incorpora toda la trayectoria de sus filmes anteriores y redobla la apuesta: el cine permite transitar diferentes temporalidades, y en lugar de utilizar los objetos o el paisaje solamente como metáforas y disparadores de memoria, interviene sobre ellos y los pone en diálogo con esas temporalidades para darles un significado. Palabras Clave: memoria, Nostalgia de la luz, cine, tiempo, objetos, paisaje, Patricio Guzmán. Abstract: In his last documentary, Nostalgia for the Light (2010), Chilean filmmaker Patricio Guzmán goes beyond the notions of some of his previous films in which he used memory both as a topic and a motor of his narratives. Memory is not just a mechanism that allows the film to revisit the past, understand the present and build the future. More than that, now cinema is an artifice that enables the use of metaphors, opens up paths that lead towards a travel through time and presents itself as a machine of inquiry and exploration, able to intervene on the material anchors of memory. In this documentary, Guzmán incorporates the trajectory of his previous films and doubles down his bet: his cinema is able to go through different temporalities and, instead of having the objects and landscapes be just metaphors or memory triggers, it intervenes on them and lets them engage in a dialogue with those temporalities in order to reach new meanings. Key Words: memory, Nostalgia for the Light, cinema, time, objects, landscapes, Patricio Guzmán.
Un lugar que no existe: la poesía de Antonio Méndez Rubio (1995-2005)
Authors: Molina Gil Raúl 
Published: February 2014

Resumen: En el presente trabajo se realiza un análisis de la poética de Antonio Méndez Rubio focalizado en cuatro de sus obras: El fin del mundo (1995), Un lugar que no existe (1998), Trasluz (2002) y Por más señas (2005). Tras un estudio del marco literario y socio-político en el que se ubican, planteamos: primero, una descripción del lenguaje poético que proviene de la aplicación de una metodología, de carácter pragmático, que nos permite analizar la modalización lírica y, con ello, los espacios de indeterminación que presenta; posteriormente, caracterizamos al sujeto lírico marcado por la falta partiendo de la vinculación que se da entre este y el mundo, y finalizando con la aplicación de las teorías de Jean Baudrillard sobre la hiperrealidad y los simulacros. Palabras Clave: Antonio Méndez Rubio, poesía y sociedad, política, espacios de indeterminación, falta, simulacro
Separation of acetic acid from dilute aqueous solution by nanofiltration membrane
Authors: Baruah Kundan , Hazarika Swapnali 
Published: February 2014

ABSTRACTNF membranes have been prepared from α, β, γ‐cyclodextrin (CD) composite with polysulfone and characterized by pore size, thickness, pure water permeability, contact angle measurement and membrane morphology study. The permeation performances of the prepared membranes have been tested for separation of acetic acid from dilute aqueous solution. Effect of concentration, pressure, flow rate on flux and rejection have been calculated and interpreted. Different permeation models have been tested for experimental values and validated by comparing the values with the experimental data. It has observed that in β‐CD membranes 99% recovery of acetic acid from aqueous solution has been obtained and found to be the best membrane for separation of acetic acid from dilute solution. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Distribution and environmental requirements of stream habitat with Ranunculion fluitantis and Callitricho‐Batrachion vegetation in lower Belgium (Flanders)
Authors: Leyssen An , Denys Luc , Schneiders Anik , Mouton Ans M. 
Published: February 2014

ABSTRACTStreams with Ranunculion fluitantis and Callitricho‐Batrachion vegetation – or habitat type 3260 according to the European Habitats Directive – require particular conservation at biogeographic level but Member States carry individual responsibility. Within this framework, the environmental requirements of this habitat type in lower Belgium (Flanders) were analysed.Overall, current vegetation composition was not significantly related to adjacent land‐use but correlated mainly with physical–chemical conditions and to a lesser extent with distance to source and channel width. Even though sites with habitat 3260 generally showed lower levels of human impact, their abiotic features overlapped considerably with those of sites without habitat 3260 but still showing hydrophyte development.Thresholds occurred in the distribution of responsive macrophyte taxa, including the more common characteristic species of the habitat type, along gradients of increasing solutes and nutrients. Comparison with water quality standards proposed so far to support good ecological status for the European Water Framework Directive in lowland rivers suggests that compliance would probably allow this habitat to persist in most cases, although some discrepancies occur. This implies that more stringent objectives may be required in some water bodies.The present analysis focuses on the conditions delimiting occurrence of HT 3260, and therefore its range and area in lower Belgium. A comprehensive understanding of its favourable conservation status remains difficult in lowland regions where most rivers are subject to strong human impact and will require a more long‐term perspective that also considers management regime, physical habitat structure and connectivity.

Published: February 2014

ABSTRACTWe previously characterized α3, a polypeptide that has a three times repeated sequence of seven amino acids (abcdefg: LETLAKA) and forms fibrous assemblies composed of amphipathic α‐helices. Upon comparison of the amino acid sequences of α3 with other α‐helix forming polypeptides, we proposed that the fibrous assemblies were formed due to the alanine (Ala) residues at positions e and g. Here, we characterized seven α3 analog polypeptides with serine (Ser), glycine (Gly), or charged residues substituted for Ala at positions e and g. The α‐helix forming abilities of the substituted polypeptides were less than that of α3. The polypeptides with amino acid substitutions at position g and the polypeptide KEα3, in which Ala was substituted with charged amino acids, formed few fibrous assemblies. In contrast, polypeptides with Ala replaced by Ser at position e formed β‐sheets under several conditions. These results show that Ala residues at position e and particularly at position g are involved in the formation of fibrous assemblies. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis and Conformational Analysis of Cyclic Homooligomers from Pyranoid ε‐Sugar Amino Acids
Authors: Feher‐Voelger Andrés , Borges‐González Jorge , Carrillo Romen , Morales Ezequiel Q. , González‐Platas Javier , Martín Tomás 
Published: February 2014

AbstractNew pyranoid ε‐sugar amino acids were designed as building blocks, in which the carboxylic acid and the amine groups were placed in positions C2 and C3 with respect to the tetrahydropyran oxygen atom. By using standard solution‐phase coupling procedures, cyclic homooligomers containing pyranoid ε‐sugar amino acids were synthesized. Conformation analysis was performed by using NMR spectroscopic experiments, FTIR spectroscopic studies, X‐ray analysis, and a theoretical conformation search. These studies reveal that the presence of a methoxy group in the position C4 of the pyran ring produces an important structural change in the cyclodipeptides. When the methoxy groups are present, the structure collapses through interresidue hydrogen bonds between the oxygen atoms of the pyran ring and the amide protons. However, when the cyclodipeptide lacks the methoxy groups, a U‐shape structure is adopted, in which there is a hydrophilic concave face with four oxygen atoms and two amide protons directed toward the center of the cavity. Additionally, we found important evidence of the key role played by weak electrostatic interactions, such as the five‐membered hydrogen‐bonded pseudocycles (C5) between the amide protons and the ether oxygen atoms, in the conformation equilibrium of the macrocycles and in the cyclization step of the cyclic tetrapeptides.
Synthesis and Structure of Tetraethynylsilane and Its Silylated Derivatives

Published: February 2014

AbstractThe known tetrakis((trimethylsilyl)ethynyl)silane was prepared and deprotected. By using trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, the smooth stepwise desilylation of the starting material was achieved, and all of the partially protected and the fully deprotected species were isolated by sublimation. Crystal structures of all of the partially and the fully deprotected species were obtained. None of the compounds is thermally sensitive. Attempts to explosively decompose these species upon heating failed.
