El nazareno de León y la obra de Gregorio Fernández
Authors: García Álvarez César , Álvarez AllerEl Eduardo 
Published: June 2015

La imagen titular de la leonesa <em>Cofradía del Dulce Nombre de Jesús Nazareno </em>ha sido considerada tradicionalmente como una talla de escaso valor, y anónima o atribuida a escultores de segunda fila. Por el contrario, el análisis exhaustivo de sus formas revela un grado de similitud tan asombrosamente exacto con respecto a las obras efectuadas por Gregorio Fernández durante los últimos años de la década de 1610, que permite atribuir al genial escultor barroco, con total seguridad, la ejecución de la cabeza y las manos de la citada talla. Por otra parte, la nueva documentación que se aporta revela que la cofradía leonesa no sólo pudo tener vínculos con Gregorio Fernández, sino que estaba en condiciones económicas de encargar, en los años de su fundación y puesta en marcha, la imagen de su advocación al mejor escultor del momento.
El grand tour: el signo de educación de un gentleman
Authors: Lau Katharina 
Published: June 2015

El pintor italiano Pompeo Girolamo Batoni (1708-1787) se estableció firmemente como el <em>pintor del Grand Tour</em>. Su abundante producción de retratos presenta en su mayoría a jóvenes <em>gentlemen </em>que exhiben la energía vibrante de su nación. La posesión de un retrato de Batoni no sólo indicaba que el retratado era un hombre de gusto, sino que también su imagen se convertía en un recuerdo de valor inapreciable que demostraba que había completado con éxito el <em>Grand Tour. </em>Aunque los retratos pueden parecer similares, este artículo examina las variaciones distintivas que resultan de los gustos de los clientes y sus preferencias individuales. En conjunto, estas imágenes presentan un retrato propio, el retrato de los británicos en el extranjero durante la era georgiana.
Banksy y Damien Hirst – Estrategias artísticas frente a la sociedad de consumo
Authors: Blanché Ulrich 
Published: June 2015

¿Cuál es el posicionamiento de Damien Hirst y Banksy frente a la cultura del consumo?. ¿Qué estrategias adopta cada uno de ellos para distanciarse del ciclo del consumismo? ¿Cómo representan el capitalismo en su obra?. Grosso modo: Hirst exagera la radical secularización de nuestra sociedad y Banksy, acercándose a la caricatura, critica decisiones de tipo político mediante la exhibición de las contradicciones inherentes a ellas.
En torno a los procesos de la creación artística románica en el medio rural: los tímpanos de Ruiforco y Matueca de Torío (León)
Authors: Morais Morán Jose Alberto 
Published: June 2015

A través de los tímpanos románicos localizados en Ruiforco y Matueca de Torío (León) se realizan una serie de reflexiones en torno a los procesos de creación escultórica desarrollados por los artífices medievales en el medio rural. El examen detenido de estas piezas aporta datos relevantes sobre la manera de proceder de estos artesanos, las fuentes utilizadas e, incluso, el tipo de relaciones artísticas que se establecían entre los diferentes talleres activos en estas áreas. No en vano, a pesar de los esfuerzos realizados en los últimos años por la historiografía más especializada en torno a esta materia, sigue resultando complicado poder establecer un panorama claro de la manera en que eran concebidas las artes plásticas románicas más alejadas de los principales centros de producción artística.

Published: June 2015

Reservoir and lake sedimentation is a vital problem in Ethiopia. Constructing small and medium size dams at the outlets of sub-catchments within larger catchment helps to reduce the transport of sediment downstream to reservoirs or lakes. This study assessed the sediment trapping efficacy (STE) of sediment storage dams (SSDs) built at the outlets of eight small sub-catchments in northwest Ethiopia, as an off-site sediment trapping measure. Satellite imagery and topographic maps were used to assess land use/land cover and delineate the boundaries of sub-catchments. In the field, trapped sediment by SSDs was measured directly, as well as in- and outflow of suspended sediment with which the STE of each SSD was estimated. Sediment yield of each sub-catchment was calculated from the measured trapped sediment and estimated suspended sediment loss. Results show that SSDs trapped an average of 1584 t yr-1 of the inflow sediment and catchment specific sediment yield ranged from 8.6-55 t ha-1 yr-1. Two representative SSDs constructed from gabion and stone were evaluated with regard to their STE. Results showed that their efficacy was 74% and 67% for the gabion and stone SSD, respectively. In general, although SSDs might be costly for small scale farmers and have a relatively short life span depending on their size, they are promising off-site structural measures to trap significant amounts of sediment at the outlets of sub-catchments and subsequently reducing sediment movement to downstream water bodies.
Characteristics and importance of rill and gully erosion: a case study in a small catchment of a marginal olive grove
Authors: Taguas E.V. , Guzmán E. , Guzmán G. , Vanwalleghem T. , Gómez J.A. 
Published: June 2015

Measurements of gullies and rills were carried out in an olive orchard microcatchment of 6.1 ha over a 4-year period (2010-2013). No tillage management allowing the development of a spontaneous grass cover was implemented in the study period. Rainfall, runoff and sediment load were measured at the catchment outlet. The objectives of this study were: 1) to quantify erosion by concentrated flow in the catchment by analysis of the geometric and geomorphologic changes of the gullies and rills between July 2010 and July 2013; 2) to evaluate the relative percentage of erosion derived from concentrated runoff to total sediment yield; 3) to explain the dynamics of gully and rill formation based on the hydrological patterns observed during the study period; and 4) to improve the management strategies in the olive grove. Control sections in gullies were established in order to get periodic measurements of width, depth and shape in each campaign. This allowed volume changes in the concentrated flow network to be evaluated over 3 periods (period 1 = 2010-2011; period 2 = 2011-2012; and period 3 = 2012-2013). The cumulative precipitation values were 610 mm, 219 mm and 406 mm for period 1, 2 and 3, respectively, whereas the sediment ratios of rill erosion to total sediment yield were 44% and 118%, respectively, with a negative value (as a result of the volume reduction of rills and gullies) in period 3 when the total load was equal to 0.4 t ha-1. The increased development of the gully network was associated to intense events with a return period of the maximum intensity in 30 minutes greater than 2 years. A high dependency on the sequence of events according to their intensity values could explain the sedimentary budget in the catchment. Most of the events generating runoff in the catchment could contribute to interrill and rill erosion, but only very intense events would allow the runoff to transport sediment to the outlet. In addition to the grass cover, control measures in the gullies would substantially improve the sustainability of the farm. These gullies are important sediment sources, particularly in autumn when there is no vegetation cover and intense rainfall events occur.

<p>A produção de alimentos orgânicos proporciona a oferta de produtos saudáveis; o uso sustentável da água e do solo; a integridade cultural das comunidades rurais; a sustentabilidade econômica e ecológica; e a eliminação do uso de organismos geneticamente modificados em qualquer fase do processo de produção, processamento, armazenamento, distribuição e comercialização. Considerando a importância ecológica da região Amazônica, foi avaliado o mercado de consumo de produtos alimentícios orgânicos em Manaus-Amazonas e caracterizado seu perfil de consumo, potencialidade e limitações. A pesquisa foi realizada junto a Associação de Produtores Orgânicos do Amazonas. Os resultados indicaram os consumidores são em sua maioria do sexo feminino, com faixa etária entre 30 a 40 anos, nível de escolaridade superior completo, em sua maioria, com uma renda superior a 4 salários mínimos. São clientes e consumidores fiéis, porém não avaliam com critério o alimento que estão adquirindo. Os produtores encontram dificuldades principalmente no apoio do poder público à produção e comercialização, com isso a oferta não é ampla e variada, havendo a competição com os preços dos produtos gerados sem a qualidade de orgânico.<strong> </strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p>
CFD Simulation of Vertical Linear Motion Mixing in Anaerobic Digester Tanks
Authors: Meroney Robert N. , Sheker Robert E. 
Published: June 2015

ABSTRACT: Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) was used to simulate the mixing characteristics of a small circular anaerobic digester tank (diameter 6 m) equipped sequentially with 13 different plunger type vertical linear motion mixers and two different type internal draft‐tube mixers. Rates of mixing of step injection of tracers were calculated from which active volume (AV) and hydraulic retention time (HRT) could be calculated. Washout characteristics were compared to analytic formulae to estimate any presence of partial mixing, dead volume, short‐circuiting, or piston flow. Active volumes were also estimated based on tank regions that exceeded minimum velocity criteria. The mixers were ranked based on an ad hoc criteria related to the ratio of AV to unit power (UP) or AV/UP. The best plunger mixers were found to behave about the same as the conventional draft‐tube mixers of similar UP.
Photo‐Fenton and Fenton Oxidation of Recalcitrant Wastewater from the Wooden Floor Industry
Authors: Hansson Henrik , Kaczala Fabio , Marques Marcia , Hogland William 
Published: June 2015

ABSTRACT: There is a need for development of on‐site wastewater treatment technologies suitable to “dry‐process” industries, such as the wooden floor sector. Due to the nature of their activities, these industries generate low volumes of highly polluted and recalcitrant wastewaters due to washing and cleaning surfaces and machinery. Advanced oxidation processes such as Fenton and photo‐Fenton are potentially feasible options for the treatment of wastewaters with not easily biodegradable pollutants. The wastewater from a wooden floor industry with initial COD value of 4956 mg/L and TOC value of 2730 mg/L was treated with Fenton (Fe/H2O2) and photo‐Fenton (Fe/H2O2/UV) applying a 2‐level full‐factorial experimental design. The highest removals of COD and TOC (79% and 62% respectively) were achieved when photo‐Fenton was applied. In conclusion, Fenton and photo‐Fenton are promising treatment options for these highly recalcitrant wastewaters, photo‐Fenton being a more promising option according to the results.
The Association between Audit Partner Rotation and Audit Fees: Empirical Evidence from the Australian Market
Authors: Stewart Jenny , Kent Pamela , Routledge James 
Published: June 2015

SUMMARY
We examine the relation between audit partner rotation and audit fees for a sample of Australian firms from 2007 to 2010. We find a significant positive association between audit fees and partner rotation in the year of rotation. The association persists in the first year post rotation and to a lesser extent in the second year post rotation. Our analysis suggests that higher audit fees are associated with both mandatory and voluntary partner rotation. However, when we divide the sample into large global clients, mid-level clients, and small local clients, we find that mandatory and voluntary rotation are associated with higher audit fees for large global clients, while only voluntary rotation is associated with higher audit fees for small local clients. We do not find an association between partner rotation and audit fees for mid-level clients. Our study suggests that the extent to which firms are able to pass on the costs of partner rotation varies across different segments of the audit market.
Physical Therapist Practice in the Intensive Care Unit: Results of a National Survey
Authors: Malone Daniel , Ridgeway Kyle , Nordon-Craft Amy , Moss Parker , Schenkman Margaret , Moss Marc 
Published: June 2015

Background
Early rehabilitation improves outcomes, and increased use of physical therapist services in the intensive care unit (ICU) has been recommended. Little is known about the implementation of early rehabilitation programs or physical therapists' preparation and perceptions of care in the United States.

Objective
A national survey was conducted to determine the current status of physical therapist practice in the ICU.

Design
This study used a cross-sectional, observational design.

Methods
Self-report surveys were mailed to members of the Acute Care Section of the American Physical Therapy Association. Questions addressed staffing, training, barriers, and protocols, and case scenarios were used to determine perceptions about providing rehabilitation.

Results
The response rate was 29% (667/2,320). Staffing, defined as the number of physical therapists per 100 ICU beds, was highest in community hospitals (academic: median=5.4 [range=3.6–9.2]; community: median=6.7 [range=4.4–10.0]) and in the western United States (median=7.5 [range=4.2–12.9]). Twelve percent of physical therapists reported no training. Barriers to providing ICU rehabilitation included insufficient staffing and training, departmental prioritization policies, and inadequate consultation criteria. Responses to case scenarios demonstrated differences in the likelihood of consultation and physical therapists' prescribed frequency and intensity of care based on medical interventions rather than characteristics of patients. Physical therapists in academic hospitals were more likely to be involved in the care of patients in each scenario and were more likely to perform higher-intensity mobilization.

Limitations
Members of the Acute Care Section of the American Physical Therapy Association may not represent most practicing physical therapists, and the 29% return rate may have contributed to response bias.

Conclusions
Although staffing was higher in community hospitals, therapists in academic and community hospitals cited insufficient staffing as the most common barrier to providing rehabilitation in the ICU. Implementing strategies to overcome barriers identified in this study may improve the delivery of ICU rehabilitation services.
Operative complications and differences in outcome after clipping and coiling of ruptured intracranial aneurysms
Authors: Ayling Oliver G. S. , Ibrahim George M. , Drake Brian , Torner James C. , Macdonald R. Loch 
Published: June 2015

OBJECT
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, with better outcomes reported following endovascular coiling compared with neurosurgical clipping of the aneurysm. The authors evaluated the contribution of perioperative complications and neurological decline to patient outcomes after both aneurysm-securing procedures.

METHODS
A post hoc analysis of perioperative complications from the Clazosentan to Overcome Neurological iSChemia and Infarction Occurring after Subarachnoid hemorrhage (CONSCIOUS-1) study was performed. Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) scores for patients who underwent neurosurgical clipping and endovascular coiling were analyzed preoperatively and each day following the procedure. Complications associated with a decline in postoperative GCS scores were identified for both cohorts. Because patients were not randomized to the aneurysm-securing procedures, propensity-score matching was performed to balance selected covariates between the 2 cohorts. Using a multivariate logistic regression, the authors evaluated whether a perioperative decline in GCS scores was associated with long-term outcomes on the extended Glasgow Outcome Scale (eGOS).

RESULTS
Among all enrolled subjects, as well as the propensity-matched cohort, patients who underwent clipping had a significantly greater decline in their GCS scores postoperatively than patients who underwent coiling (p = 0.0024). Multivariate analysis revealed that intraoperative hypertension (p = 0.011) and intraoperative induction of hypotension (p = 0.0044) were associated with a decline in GCS scores for patients undergoing clipping. Perioperative thromboembolism was associated with postoperative GCS decline for patients undergoing coiling (p = 0.03). On multivariate logistic regression, postoperative neurological deterioration was strongly associated with a poor eGOS score at 3 months (OR 0.86, 95% CI 0.78-0.95, p = 0.0032).

CONCLUSIONS
Neurosurgical clipping following aSAH is associated with a greater perioperative decline in GCS scores than endovascular coiling, which is in turn associated with poorer long-term outcomes. These findings provide novel insight into putative mechanisms of improved outcomes following coiling, highlighting the potential importance of perioperative factors when comparing outcomes between clipping and coiling and the need to mitigate the morbidity of surgical strategies following aSAH.
Pure neuritic leprosy presenting as ulnar nerve neuropathy: a case report of electrodiagnostic, radiographic, and histopathological findings

Published: June 2015

Hansen’s disease, or leprosy, is a chronic infectious disease with many manifestations. Though still a major health concern and leading cause of peripheral neuropathy in the developing world, it is rare in the United States, with only about 150 cases reported each year. Nevertheless, it is imperative that neurosurgeons consider it in the differential diagnosis of neuropathy.
The causative organism is Mycobacterium leprae, which infects and damages Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system, leading first to sensory and then to motor deficits. A rare presentation of Hansen’s disease is pure neuritic leprosy. It is characterized by nerve involvement without the characteristic cutaneous stigmata. The authors of this report describe a case of pure neuritic leprosy presenting as ulnar nerve neuropathy with corresponding radiographic, electrodiagnostic, and histopathological data.
This 11-year-old, otherwise healthy male presented with progressive right-hand weakness and numbness with no cutaneous abnormalities. Physical examination and electrodiagnostic testing revealed findings consistent with a severe ulnar neuropathy at the elbow. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed diffuse thickening and enhancement of the ulnar nerve and narrowing at the cubital tunnel. The patient underwent ulnar nerve decompression with biopsy. Pathology revealed acid-fast organisms within the nerve, which was pathognomonic for Hansen’s disease. He was started on antibiotic therapy, and on follow-up he had improved strength and sensation in the ulnar nerve distribution.
Pure neuritic leprosy, though rare in the United States, should be considered in the differential diagnosis of those presenting with peripheral neuropathy and a history of travel to leprosy-endemic areas. The long incubation period of M. leprae, the ability of leprosy to mimic other conditions, and the low sensitivity of serological tests make clinical, electrodiagnostic, and radiographic evaluation necessary for diagnosis. Prompt diagnosis and treatment is imperative to prevent permanent neurological injury.
Isolation and characterization of microsatellite markers for an endemic tree in East Asia, Quercus variabilis (Fagaceae)
Authors: Wang Xian , Li Jing , Li Yong 
Published: June 2015

Premise of the study:Microsatellite markers of Quercus variabilis (Fagaceae) were isolated for population genetic and landscape genetic studies.Methods and Results:Roche 454 pyrosequencing combined with the magnetic bead enrichment protocol were used to isolate microsatellite markers for Q. variabilis. A total of 2121 microsatellites were identified from 63,851 individual sequence reads. One hundred microsatellite loci were selected to test primer amplification efficiency among 24 individuals from two wild populations. Among the 100 tested markers, 34 primer pairs were successfully amplified. Of these, 14 yielded polymorphic amplification products, whereas the remaining 20 loci were monomorphic. The number of alleles for polymorphic loci ranged from two to six, and the observed heterozygosity ranged from 0.042 to 0.750.Conclusions:These microsatellite loci will provide useful tools for further population genetic and landscape genetic studies on Q. variabilis.
