Published: July 2015

There is a high rate of comorbidity between borderline personality disorder (BPD) and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD; Pagura et al., 2010). Preliminary studies have evaluated the treatment of PTSD in a BPD population and found positive outcomes for the integration of dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and prolonged exposure (PE). This case study illustrates the implementation of a PE protocol into standard DBT treatment, specifically focusing on the management of self‐harm and severe dissociation for a client with co‐occurring PTSD and BPD. The client entered into treatment with severe and persistent dissociation and a recent history of self‐harm, and the case includes consideration of two separate pauses in PTSD treatment related to elevated dissociation and self‐harm behaviors. The client successfully completed the DBT PE protocol and results indicate significant improvements in PTSD symptoms as well as outcomes related to self‐harm and dissociation. These findings demonstrate the efficacy of combining DBT with PE for clients with comorbid BPD and PTSD and exemplify how complex clients with BPD who present with severe dissociation and self‐harm behavior can safely and successfully receive treatment for PTSD.

Published: July 2015

AbstractAccurate distance estimation is essential for effective user interaction with objects appearing in the virtual space. Research has shown that the distance estimation in the virtual space is not as accurate as that in the real world. The inaccuracy phenomenon is almost exclusively documented for estimating objects appearing straight ahead of the eye. A collection of the accuracy data for targets located in different angles of view in the visual field may be useful in aiding the design of user‐virtual object interaction. This study collected the object to object distance estimation accuracy for targets displayed stereoscopically. There are five horizontal and two vertical viewing angles and three depths, resulting in a total of 30 locations in the virtual space. The distance estimation for any of the 30 object pairs were performed with or without the aid of spatial cues. Significant factors influencing the accuracy and time of distance estimation were identified. Implications of the finding were discussed with respect to the stereoscopic display environment.

AbstractBackgroundCooperatively‐controlled robotic assistance could provide increased positional accuracy and stable and safe tissue targeting tasks during open‐skull neurosurgical procedures, which are currently performed free‐hand.MethodsTwo enhanced torque‐based impedance control approaches, i.e. a variable damping criterion and a force‐feedback enhancement control, were proposed in combination with an image‐based navigation system. Control systems were evaluated on brain‐mimicking phantoms by 13 naive users and 8 neurosurgeons (4 novices and 4 experts).ResultsIn addition to a 60% reduction of user effort, the combination of the proposed strategies showed comparable performances with respect to state‐of‐the‐art admittance controller, thus satisfying the clinical accuracy requirements (below 1 mm), reducing the hand tremor (by a factor of 10) and the tissue's indentation overshooting (by 80%).ConclusionAlthough the perceived reliability of the system should be improved, the proposed control was suitable to assist targeting procedures, such as brain cortex stimulation, allowing for accurate, stable and safe contact with soft tissues.

Published: July 2015

AbstractBackgroundTrans‐oesophageal echocardiography (TOE) has been widely utilized for cardiac disease diagnosis and interventional procedure guidance. However, the TOE operator is required to manually manipulate the probe, often for long periods of time and sometimes in an X‐ray environment where there is exposure to ionizing radiation.MethodsA novel robotic manipulation system for remote control of commercial TOE probes has been developed and tested. The system has four degrees of freedom (DOFs) and is characterized by a kinematic model. The accuracy of the model and the error propagation were analysed.ResultsThe prototype system was shown to exhibit the required function in terms of the mechanical reliability and range of motion. The forward kinematic model can accurately predict the trajectory of the probe tip movement. The average point‐to‐point errors were 2.60 mm and 3.55°.ConclusionsRobotic assistance provided by the proposed system may improve the TOE operating environment. The proposed forward kinematic model can be further employed for automatic control. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Published: July 2015

SummaryThe aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the presence of voids in oval root canals filled with different root canal sealers (EndoSequence BC Sealer, Smartpaste bio, ActiV GP) and to compare those with root canals filled with AH Plus sealer using micro‐CT. In total, 40 freshly extracted human single‐root maxillary premolars were used. Specimens instrumented with the EndoSequence NiTi rotary instrument were assigned randomly into four groups. In each group, root canals were filled with single‐cone gutta‐percha and one of the tested sealers. Each specimen was then scanned using micro‐CT at a voxel resolution of 13.47 μm. Proportions of sections with voids in cross‐sectional images and void volumes for each sealer were calculated in the apical, middle, and coronal thirds. Differences according to root canal sealers were evaluated statistically using the Kruskal–Wallis test and the Mann–Whitney U‐test at a significance level of 5%. The analysis showed a decrease in void formation in the apical third, with a significant difference between the apical and coronal thirds among bioceramic sealers, ActiV GP, and AH Plus (p < 0.05) but no significant difference between the apical and middle thirds or between the middle and coronal thirds was found for the sealers tested (p > 0.05). All root canal sealers tested resulted in voids. The bioceramic sealers (EndoSequence BC Sealer, Smartpaste bio) produced similar voids which had the fewest in the apical third of root canals among the sealers tested which can be related due to root canal anatomy variations.

Porcine acellular dermis-based breast reconstruction: complications and outcomes following adjuvant radiotherapy
Authors: Ng Cho Ee , Pieri Andrew , Fasih Tarannum 
Published: July 2015

Abstract

Background
Acellular dermal matrices (ADM) such as StratticeTM are increasingly used in UK during implant-based reconstruction. However, there are mixed opinions regarding the compatibility of radiotherapy treatment in pre- and post-reconstructed breasts. The aims of this study are to audit the rates of radiation induced complications in patients who underwent breast reconstruction using StratticeTM and establish whether there is an association between timing of radiotherapy and complication rates.

Methods
Retrospective data collection was performed for all patients who underwent skin-sparing mastectomy and immediate or delayed StratticeTM-based reconstruction, and received pre- or post-reconstruction radiotherapy from July 2010 to November 2014.

Results
The age ranged from 33 to 78 years (mean age 51 ± 10.6) with a mean follow-up time of 21 months. There were 25 StratticeTM-based reconstructions performed. Sixteen had delayed reconstruction, and 9 had skin-sparing mastectomy and immediate reconstruction. There were 4 (16 %) abandoned procedures due to inability to stretch the mastectomy flap secondary to poor skin compliance. Two women (8 %) presented 4 and 9 months later with wound breakdown. One case (4 %) developed severe capsular contracture following radiotherapy post-reconstruction and 1 case (4 %) of implant rupture. There were no episodes of extrusion or implant infection. Overall complication rates were 32 %. The majority (75 %) of complications occurred in breasts reconstructed post-radiotherapy; however, this is not significant when analysed using chi-square (p = 0.43).

Conclusions
Our evidence suggests that there is no difference in complication rates in pre- and post-radiation individuals; this would suggest that implant-based reconstruction using StratticeTM should not be an absolute contraindication in pre- or post-radiotherapy patients. However, when planning these procedures, it is paramount that the increased risks are emphasised to patients in order to better manage patient expectation in cases where complications arise.

Schooling Food in Contemporary Times: Taking Stock
Authors: Leahy Deana , Gray Emily , Cutter-Mackenzie Amy , Eames Chris 
Published: July 2015

AbstractOver the past decade we have witnessed a proliferation and intensification of food pedagogies across a range of sites. This article begins by considering two pedagogical scenes that attempt to address food. They were enacted within educational settings in Australia; one a Year 8 (13 years of age) health education classroom, the other a professional learning seminar. Each were heavily imbued with the obesity prevention imperatives that have come to characterise social, political and educational discourse around food in contemporary times. Using these scenes as a springboard, we move to consider the place where we initially envisioned food might intersect with environmental education. We imagined that it would be a space with significant potential for approaching teaching and learning about food in new ways. Deploying menu as metaphor, the authors explore the possibilities for this new terrain and argue that bringing a Foucauldian inspired ‘ethics of discomfort’ to the table might help us take stock of contemporary approaches and their effects. Given the dominance of crisis-driven responses that tend to characterise school food education, we conclude by suggesting that we need to interrupt the dominant discourses that circulate around food and try to engage with some new possibilities for teaching and learning about food.
Early phylogeny and subclass division of the Crinoidea (Phylum Echinodermata)
Authors: Ausich William I. 
Published: July 2015

A stepwise approach is employed to determine the phylogeny of the initial crinoid radiation during the Arenig and Llanvirn series of the Ordovician. Parsimony-based character analysis is completed first on Arenig crinoids and then for Arenig and Llanvirn crinoids combined.The topology from well-resolved trees of this early crinoid radiation indicates that the Crinoidea should be subdivided into six subclasses. A new subclass and new order, Aethocrinea and Aethocrinida, respectively, are proposed for crinoids with four circlets of plates in the aboral cup: lintels, infrabasals, basals, and radials. This aboral cup construction is best displayed byAethocrinus, one of the oldest known crinoids (?Tremadoc-Arenig). However, this primitive aboral cup construction is also present in two Llanvirn crinoids,PerittocrinusandTetracionocrinus.The Aethocrinea was a small, short-lived radiation of crinoids with this design that was different from those of other crinoids. Two families in the Aethocrinida are the Aethocrinidae, which includesAethocrinus, and the Perittocrinidae, which includesPerittocrinusandTetracionocrinus.In addition to the Aethocrinea, the following crinoid subclasses are recognized based on character analyses of these earliest crinoids: Cladida, Camerata, Disparida, Flexibilia, and Articulata.
Lower Devonian (Emsian) rugosa of the Izarne Formation, Montagne Noire, France

Published: July 2015

An account of the systematics, biostratigraphy, ecological setting and the biogeographic implications of rugose corals from olistoliths of the Cabrières area is given. Corals of the lower member of the Izarne Formation are dated by conodonts asgronbergiZone age, and includeLythophyllumsp. indet.,Calceola sandalina(Linné),Tryplasmasp. A,Breviphrentis rohartiPedder new species,B. exiguaPedder new species, andAqishaphyllumsp. A. Corals from the middle member of the formation includeFrechocystis pertinaxPedder new genus and species,Calceolasp. undet.,Rhizophyllumsp. aff.R. ukalundenseHill and Jell,Tryplasma enormePedder new species,Tryplasmasp. A,Breviphrentissp. A,Platysmatophyllum halleriPedder new genus and species,Pseudochonophyllum sentumPedder new species, andIzarneophyllum barroisi(Frech) new genus. No age significant conodont has been recovered from the middle member. However, scutelluid trilobites, which, together with other trilobites, evidently used the underside of Izarne corals for shelter during molting, provide correlation with conodont sequences in the nappe domain to the north and southwest of Cabrières. From this line of evidence, the middle Izarne coral fauna is deduced to benothoperbonusZone age. The association of a variety of benthic trilobites, all with large eyes, provides evidence of a photic zone environment for the middle Izarne corals.Rugose corals from the Izarne Formation belong to the Old World Realm and have nothing in common with similar age Rugosa of the Eastern Americas Realm. This implies that the dissolution of the boundary between these realms, which occurred in the Middle Devonian, did not begin before latest Emsian time.
Trilobites from theCedarina dakotaensisZone, lowermost part of the Deadwood Formation (Marjuman Stage, Upper Cambrian), Black Hills, South Dakota
Authors: Stitt James H. 
Published: July 2015

Trilobites assigned to 14 genera and 14 species are reported from basal part of the Deadwood Formation in the Black Hills of South Dakota. Six additional taxa are left in open nomenclature. One new species,Cedarina dakotaensis, is described. These trilobites are assigned to a new zone, theCedarina dakotaensisZone, named after the most abundant trilobite species.Species ofCedarinaandModociaare the most abundant in theCedarina dakotaensisZone, accompanied by less common specimens of species ofArapahoia, Menomonia, Hardyoides, Welleraspis, Kormagnostus, andKingstonia. Cedarina dakotaensisandModocia centralisare the most abundant species in the nearshore sandstone lithofacies, whereasArapahoia spatulatais the predominate taxon in the offshore limestone lithofacies.The fauna of theCedarina dakotaensis Zone(which lacks species ofCedaria) occupies the biostratigraphic interval of the traditionalCedariaZone of the Marjuman Stage. Trilobites from theCedarina dakotaensisZone can be used to correlate the basal part of the Deadwood with coeval strata elsewhere in North America.
Eocene stelleroids (Echinodermata) at Seymour Island, Antarctic Peninsula

Published: July 2015

The new asteroid speciesSclerasterias zinsmeisteri(Asteriidae),Paragonaster clarkae, Tesselaster clarki(both Goniasteridae), and the new ophiuroid speciesOphiura hendleri(Ophiuridae) are described from the late Eocene La Meseta Formation at Seymour Island, Antarctic Peninsula. The arm tip of an apparently new genus of the Oreasteridae is too incomplete to assign at the generic level. Other La Meseta asteroid species have been described elsewhere. Six of seven recognized stelleroid genera and all represented families survive, and differences between new species and existing congeneric species are subtle. Thus, the La Meseta fauna was similar to living faunas in basic composition.Among La Meseta asteroids,Zoroasteraff.Z. fulgensandCtenophoraster downeyaeare known from numerous specimens; fossils of the other species are comparatively uncommon and given the uncertainties of sampling, further taxa might await discovery at Seymour Island. Although the Paxillosida is known from Jurassic rocks, fasciole-bearing, semi-infaunal genera are first known from Cretaceous deposits, andAstropectenandAstropecten-likeCtenophorasterare first recorded from Cenozoic rocks.ZoroasterandTesselasterare only known from deep water settings today, although they are found in the La Meseta.Ophiura hendleri,the only ophiuroid recognized to date from the La Meseta, occurs singly, in small groups, and in Paleozoic-type ophiuroid-rich beds.
Bacterial solubilization of mineral phosphates: Historical perspective and future prospects
Authors: Goldstein Alan H. 
Published: July 2015

AbstractMaximum crop yields require sufficient phosphorus fertilization. Only phosphate in a soluble ionic form (Pi) is effective as a mineral nutrient. Current fertilizer technology supplies the soil solution with Pi via the application of large amounts of phosphate salts. Problems with this technology include energy-intensive production processes, the need for large scale mechanical application with associated environmental consequences, and reprecipitation of the phosphate into insoluble mineral complexes. It has been estimated that in some soils up to 75% of applied phosphate fertilizer may be lost to the plant because of mineral phase reprecipitation. Many approaches, ranging from cultural practices to biological inoculants such as mycorrhizal fungi, are being employed to enhance P-use efficiency. One area that is currently under-investigated is the ability of certain types of bacteria to solubilize mineral and organic phosphates. A review of the literature in the area of bacterial phosphate solubilization confirms that this trait is displayed by a wide range of bacteria. The phosphate starvation inducible (PSI) organic phosphate-solubilizing capability of E. coli is a component of a coordinately regulated gene system: the pho regulon. It has long been known that bacteria are also capable of solubilizing mineral phosphates such as hydroxyapatite. To date there has been no systematic study of the genetics of this phenomenon. Data from my laboratory indicate that the bacterial mineral phosphate-solubilizing (MPS) trait is regulated by the external level of Pi This conclusion is supported by results obtained from several types of molecular genetic studies. It is proposed that bacteria have mineral phosphate solubilizing (mps) genes. The potential agronomic applications of bacterial mineral and organic P solubilizing systems are discussed.
Discovering America: FromPaul BunyantoPeter Grimes
Authors: Wiebe Heather 
Published: July 2015

AbstractBritten and Auden’s ‘choral operetta’Paul Bunyan, written in New York in 1939–41, has often been seen as out of touch with its American context and as an anomalous precursor to the triumphantPeter Grimes(1945). A closer look, however, suggests a more complex engagement with American musical life and with the problem of American operatic populism. Indeed, ifPaul Bunyanoffered one set of answers to this problem, toying with popular genres and smaller forms, the rejection of this approach inPeter Grimesalso seems tied to shifting American ideas about contemporary opera. Attention toPaul Bunyanin its American context highlights the transatlantic nature of both American and British operatic developments in the mid-twentieth century, while also recasting Britten’s operatic trajectory, restoring a sense of scepticism and uncertainty to his operatic project at its very beginnings.
Unreliable Authors, Unreliable History: Opera in Joe Wright’s Adaptation ofAtonement
Authors: Wilson Alexandra 
Published: July 2015

AbstractMusic is frequently overlooked by scholars of adaptation, who concentrate primarily on questions of literary and visual transformation. Undertaking a close reading of a pivotal scene in Joe Wright’sAtonement, this article demonstrates the vital contribution music can make to the adaptation process. Wright uses music, and Puccini’s in particular, in ways that are both narrative and reflexive, creating shifts of emphasis, deliberate ambiguities and intertextual allusions. Opera becomes a tool that allows the film-maker to interrogate notions of authorial and historical reliability, themes that lie at the heart of Ian McEwan’s highly self-aware novel.
Cognitive-Affective Neuroscience of Depersonalization
Authors: Stein Dan J. , Simeon Daphne 
Published: July 2015

ABSTRACTDepersonalization disorder (DPD) is characterized by a subjective sense of detachment from one's own being and a sense of unreality. An examination of the psychobiology of depersonalization symptoms may be useful in understanding the cognitive-affective neuroscience of embodiment. DPD may be mediated by neurocircuitry and neurotransmitters involved in the integration of sensory processing and of the body schema, and in the mediation of emotional experience and the identification of feelings. For example, DPD has been found to involve autonomic blunting, deactivation of sub-cortical structures, and disturbances in molecular systems in such circuitry. An evolutionary perspective suggests that attenuation of emotional responses, mediated by deactivation of limbic structures, may sometimes be advantageous in response to inescapable stress.

AbstractSince its reclassification as a distinct disease entity, clinical research efforts have attempted to establish baseline characteristics and prognostic scoring systems for chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML). Although existing data for baseline characteristics and CMML prognostication have been robustly developed and externally validated, these results have been limited by the small size of single-institution cohorts. We developed an international CMML data set that included 1832 cases across eight centers to establish the frequency of key clinical characteristics. Of note, we found that the majority of CMML patients were classified as World Health Organization CMML-1 and that a 7.5% bone marrow blast cut-point may discriminate prognosis with higher resolution in comparison with the existing 10%. We additionally interrogated existing CMML prognostic models and found that they are all valid and have comparable performance but are vulnerable to upstaging. Using random forest survival analysis for variable discovery, we demonstrated that the prognostic power of clinical variables alone is limited. Last, we confirmed the independent prognostic relevance of ASXL1 gene mutations and identified the novel adverse prognostic impact imparted by CBL mutations. Our data suggest that combinations of clinical and molecular information may be required to improve the accuracy of current CMML prognostication.
