Published: May 2013

OBJECTIVE:To quantify the extent to which maternal report of inconsolable infant crying, rather than colic (defined by Wessel’s criteria of daily duration of fussing and crying &gt;3 hours), is associated with maternal postpartum depressive symptoms.METHODS:Participants were 587 mothers who were recruited shortly before or after delivery and followed longitudinally. At 5 to 6 weeks postpartum, mothers recorded the duration and mode (fussing, crying, or inconsolable crying) of their infant’s distress by using the Baby’s Day Diary. The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) was administered at enrollment and at 8 weeks postpartum. Using regression models that included baseline EPDS scores and multiple confounders, we examined associations of colic and inconsolable crying with later maternal EPDS scores at 8 weeks postpartum.RESULTS:Sixty mothers (10%) met the EPDS threshold for “possible depression” (score ≥9) at 8 weeks postpartum. For mothers reporting &gt;20 minutes of inconsolable crying per day, the adjusted odds ratio for an EPDS score ≥9 was 4.0 (95% confidence interval: 2.0–8.1), whereas the adjusted odds ratio for possible depression in mothers whose infants had colic was 2.0 (95% confidence interval: 1.1–3.7). These associations persisted after adjusting for baseline depression symptoms.CONCLUSIONS:Maternal report of inconsolable infant crying may have a stronger association with postpartum depressive symptoms than infant colic. Asking a mother about her ability to soothe her infant may be more relevant for potential intervention than questions about crying and fussing duration alone.

Published: May 2013

Abstract
The therapeutic landscape for the treatment of advanced prostate cancer is rapidly evolving, especially for those patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CPRC). Despite advances in therapy options, the diagnostic landscape has remained relatively static, with few guidelines or reviews addressing the optimal timing or methodology for the radiographic detection of metastatic disease. Given recent reports indicating a substantial proportion of patients with CRPC thought to be nonmetastatic (M0) are in fact metastatic (M1), there is now a clear opportunity and need for improvement in detection practices. Herein, we discuss the current status of predicting the presence of metastatic disease, with a particular emphasis on the detection of the M0 to M1 transition. In addition, we review current data on newer imaging technologies that are changing the way metastases are detected. Whether earlier detection of metastatic disease will ultimately improve patient outcomes is unknown, but given that the therapeutic options for those with metastatic and nonmetastatic CPRC vary, there are considerable implications of how and when metastases are detected.
Peri‐Implant Cystic Lesion With Unusual Cellular Changes: A Case Report

Published: May 2013

Introduction: This report describes the history and management of a cyst developing in anatomic contact with an immediately placed dental implant.Case Presentation: The lesion presented clinically as a facial swelling of the gingiva adjacent to an osseointegrated and restored maxillary right lateral incisor implant. Radiographs showed a well‐circumscribed radiolucency, which was contiguous with the implant surface. After reflection of a mucoperiosteal flap, the lesion was enucleated in toto, and the defect was curetted. The bony defect was grafted, and the lesional tissues were sent for histologic analysis. The results demonstrated the presence of a cyst of unknown origin with some unusual cellular changes in localized areas of the cyst lining resembling ameloblasts. Healing occurred uneventfully, and the patient was monitored for recurrence. At the 2‐year follow‐up appointment, the patient presented no clinical or radiographic signs of recurrence of the lesion. The etiology of this lesion is unknown.Conclusion: This case emphasizes the need for histologic diagnosis of peri‐implantitis lesions and suggests a need for expansion of the current classification system for peri‐implantitis lesions.
Prevalence of Palatal Exostoses in Patients Who Have Received Periodontal Surgery in the Posterior Maxilla
Authors: Holtzclaw Dan , Hinze Fritz 
Published: May 2013

Introduction: Removal of torus palatinus and palatal exostoses has been advocated for preprosthetic reasons and to avoid adverse surgical sequelae in the treatment of periodontal disease. Although multiple studies have documented the prevalence of palatal exostoses in skull examinations, to the authors’ knowledge, none have reported on the prevalence of these bony protuberances during actual periodontal surgeries. The goal of this retrospective observational case series is to report on the prevalence of palatal exostoses seen during surgeries for the treatment of periodontal disease in the posterior maxilla.Case Series: All records from a 30‐month period (July 2010 to December 2012) in a single private periodontal practice were reviewed to identify patients who had received guided tissue regeneration, bone grafting, osseous recontouring, or a combination thereof in the posterior maxilla. A total of 168 patients met the inclusion criteria, and 131 of these patients had palatal exostoses removed during surgery.Conclusion: The 77.97% prevalence of palatal exostoses found during periodontal surgeries in the posterior maxilla in this case series is significantly higher than that reported in previously documented skull examinations.

Published: May 2013

Introduction: Fibrolipoma, a histologic variant of lipoma, mostly affects the buccal mucosa and causes functional and cosmetic disabilities. Oral lipomas are benign and rarely seen in the oral cavity. Fibrolipoma of the oral cavity has also been infrequently reported. This report presents a rare case of intraoral fibrolipoma detected on the right buccal mucosa. The lesion was removed using electrosurgery (ES).Case Presentation: A 40‐year‐old female patient presented with a chief complaint of a painless growth on the right buccal mucosa causing irritation when opening and closing the mouth. Provisionally diagnosed as irritational fibroma, the growth was excised using ES under local anesthesia. No sutures were placed, and the bleeding was controlled in the intermittent coagulation mode. The histopathologic report revealed the lesion to be a fibrolipoma. Healing was uneventful, and no recurrence was observed for a period of 1 year.Conclusions: Compared with scalpel surgery, ES requires more expertise, but the advantages counter the technical complexities. Minimal bleeding and postoperative discomfort and good patient compliance were observed in this case. Therefore, ES may be considered as a patient‐ and clinician‐friendly tool, although a long‐term comparative assessment with scalpel surgery is recommended to establish its effectiveness.

Published: May 2013

Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and chronic periodontitis (CP) are chronic inflammatory conditions and share many pathologic features. The common molecular pathogenesis of the two inflammatory diseases is unclear. The aim of the present study is to evaluate serum protein profiles specific for patients with RA and CP by a comprehensive proteomic analysis.Methods: The study participants were: 10 patients with RA, 10 patients with CP, 10 patients with RA and CP, and 10 healthy controls. All groups were balanced for age, sex, and smoking status. Serum protein spot volume was examined with two‐dimensional sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Proteins with significant differences in abundance among the four groups were determined with computer image analysis and identified with mass spectrometry and protein databases.Results: A total of 1,694 protein spots were obtained in sera of the four groups. Seven spots were significantly different in abundance among the four groups. Of these, three spots (complement component 3, complement factor H, and ceruloplasmin) were significantly different in the RA+CP group compared with the other three groups (P <0.05). The similar profiles of complement component 3, complement factor H, and ceruloplasmin were observed by enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay.Conclusion: These results suggest that patients with RA and CP may exhibit three serum proteins with different abundance compared with healthy controls and patients with RA only or CP only.

Published: May 2013

Background: The association between periodontal disease treatment and end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) remains unclear. This study aims to determine whether surgical periodontal treatment reduces ESRD risk.Methods: From the insurance claims data of patients with periodontal disease who were free of ESRD from 1997 to 2009, 35,496 patients were identified who underwent surgery for subgingival curettage and/or periodontal flap and are considered the treatment cohort. For comparison, 141,824 patients who did not undergo these treatments were considered the no‐treatment cohort. Follow‐ups were performed until the end of 2009 to estimate the incidence and risk of ESRD in these two cohorts. Cox proportional hazard regression was used to estimate the related hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of ESRD.Results: The incidence of ESRD was lower in the treatment cohort than in the no‐treatment cohort (4.66 versus 7.38 per 10,000 person‐years), with an adjusted HR of 0.59 (95% CI = 0.46 to 0.75). Sex‐ and age‐specific analysis showed that the incidence rate ratio of the treatment cohort to the no‐treatment cohort was higher for women than for men and declined with age. The risks of ESRD were consistently lower in the treatment cohort even when compared by comorbidity.Conclusions: Patients with periodontal disease who undergo procedures for subgingival curettage and/or periodontal flap have a remarkably decreased risk of ESRD.
A linear condition determining local or global existence for nonlinear problems
Authors: Neuberger John , Neuberger John , Swift James 
Published: May 2013

AbstractGiven a nonlinear autonomous system of ordinary or partial differential equations that has at least local existence and uniqueness, we offer a linear condition which is necessary and sufficient for existence to be global. This paper is largely concerned with numerically testing this condition. For larger systems, principals of computations are clear but actual implementation poses considerable challenges. We give examples for smaller systems and discuss challenges related to larger systems. This work is the second part of a program, the first part being [Neuberger J.W., How to distinguish local semigroups from global semigroups, Discrete Contin. Dyn. Syst. (in press), available at http://arxiv.org/abs/1109.2184]. Future work points to a distant goal for problems as in [Fefferman C.L., Existence and Smoothness of the Navier-Stokes Equation, In: The Millennium Prize Problems, Clay Mathematics Institute, Cambridge/American Mathematical Society, Providence, 2006, 57–67].
Adaptive multiscale scheme based on numerical density of entropy production for conservation laws
Authors: Ersoy Mehmet , Golay Frédéric , Yushchenko Lyudmyla 
Published: May 2013

AbstractWe propose a 1D adaptive numerical scheme for hyperbolic conservation laws based on the numerical density of entropy production (the amount of violation of the theoretical entropy inequality). This density is used as an a posteriori error which provides information if the mesh should be refined in the regions where discontinuities occur or coarsened in the regions where the solution remains smooth. As due to the Courant-Friedrich-Levy stability condition the time step is restricted and leads to time consuming simulations, we propose a local time stepping algorithm. We also use high order time extensions applying the Adams-Bashforth time integration technique as well as the second order linear reconstruction in space. We numerically investigate the efficiency of the scheme through several test cases: Sod’s shock tube problem, Lax’s shock tube problem and the Shu-Osher test problem.
Numerical investigation of a new class of waves in an open nonlinear heat-conducting medium
Authors: Dimova Milena , Dimova Stefka , Vasileva Daniela 
Published: May 2013

AbstractThe paper contributes to the problem of finding all possible structures and waves, which may arise and preserve themselves in the open nonlinear medium, described by the mathematical model of heat structures. A new class of self-similar blow-up solutions of this model is constructed numerically and their stability is investigated. An effective and reliable numerical approach is developed and implemented for solving the nonlinear elliptic self-similar problem and the parabolic problem. This approach is consistent with the peculiarities of the problems — multiple solutions of the elliptic problem and blow-up solutions of the parabolic one.

Published: May 2013

• Premise of the study: Microsatellite primers were developed in the neotropical tree species Cariniana legalis (Lecythidaceae) to investigate its genetic diversity, mating system, and gene flow.• Methods and Results: We identified 96 clones containing 82 repeat motifs from a genomic library enriched for (CT)8 and (GT)8 motifs. Primer pairs were developed for 13 microsatellite loci and validated in 51 C. legalis specimens and 26 C. estrellensis specimens. Eleven loci were polymorphic, revealing a maximum of two to 15 alleles per locus in C. legalis and three to 12 in C. estrellensis. For C. legalis, the observed (Ho) and expected (He) heterozygosities ranged from 0 to 0.99 and from 0.07 to 0.90, respectively. For C. estrellensis, Ho and He ranged from 0 to 0.96 and from 0.14 to 0.91, respectively.• Conclusions: The primers identified polymorphic loci that are suitable to study genetic diversity and structure, mating system, and gene flow in C. legalis and the related species C. estrellensis.

Published: May 2013

• Premise of the study: Microsatellite loci were developed for a monotypic species endemic to subtropical China, Cyclocarya paliurus, to help infer the evolutionary histories of ancient monotypic genera in subtropical China.• Methods and Results: Using the Fast Isolation by AFLP of Sequences COntaining repeats (FIASCO) protocol, 28 primer sets were identified in two wild populations. All loci were polymorphic, with the number of alleles per locus ranging from two to eight. The expected and observed heterozygosities ranged from 0.153 to 0.802 and from 0 to 0.750, respectively. The transferability of the 28 primer pairs was tested on Juglans regia, Pterocarya stenoptera, and Platycarya strobilacea. Twenty‐one (75.0%), 22 (78.6%), and 15 (53.6%) markers were successfully amplified in J. regia, P. stenoptera, and P. strobilacea, respectively.• Conclusions: These loci will be useful for in‐depth analysis of genetic diversity and phylogeographical variation throughout the distribution range of C. paliurus.
Les exclamatives : intensification ou haut-degré ?
Authors: Anscombre Jean-Claude 
Published: May 2013

Depuis l’étude désormais classique de Milner (1978), les phrases exclamatives ont été assimilées à des phrases exhibant des marqueurs du groupe de qu – , à savoir quel , comme , combien , que , etc., et signifiant le haut-degré, voire le degré maximum, et étant donc de nature scalaire. Cette approche traditionnelle laisse sans réponse un certain nombre de questions. Après avoir établi une liste des différents candidats au statut d’exclamative de type Quel SN ! et de leurs propriétés, on proposera donc une définition unitaire deces exclamatives en termes non pas de degré, mais d’intensification, le degré et le haut-degré n’en étant qu’une manifestation. De ce point de vue, l’exclamative repose sur un mécanisme fondamentalement sémantique, ce qui explique l’hétérogénéité des moyens susceptibles d’être employés pour y parvenir.
Scénario socio-économique et écologique des changements de l’occupation des terres au Bénin
Authors: Oloukoi Joseph 
Published: May 2013

Cette étude apprécie la dynamique de l’occupation des terres et son probable devenir dans un avenir moyen et lointain au Centre du Bénin. Elle se base sur une approche combinatoire qui intègre la télédétection spatiale, les systèmes d’information géographique et les automates cellulaires. Des images Landsat TM de 1986, ETM de 2000 et NigeriaSat1 de 2006 ont été utilisées pour l’extraction des informations sur l’occupation du sol. Ces informations ont été traitées et converties sous format ASCII dans ArcGIS, puis récupérées dans le modèle des automates cellulaires SPACELLE où des projections ont été faites aux horizons 2025 et 2034, suivant deux scénarios qui pourraient se produire sous des conditions socio-économiques définies. La détection des changements indique une tendance progressive des champs et jachères, les savanes arborées et arbustives entre 1986 et 2006. Quant à la forêt dense et la forêt-galerie, elles présentent une tendance régressive au niveau des quatre unités paysagiques sélectionnées. Le scénario socio-économique révèle que les formations végétales vont quasiment disparaître au profit des champs et jachères et des agglomérations en 2016, 2025, tendance qui va se consolider davantage en 2034. Le scénario écologique a tourné à un scénario de stabilité environnementale, se traduisant par une dynamique relative, mais qui préservera les ressources surtout les formations végétales, car leur degré de dégradation ne sera pas aussi élevé.
L’accès à l’eau courante des femmes migrantes à Ouagadougou : durabilité de l’accès et effet sur la survie des enfants
Authors: Santos Stéphanie Dos 
Published: May 2013

L’Afrique subsaharienne enregistre l’un des taux de non-accès à l’eau les plus élevés au monde (39 % de la population). En zone urbaine africaine, les progrès réalisés ces dernières années dans l’accès à l’eau ne sont pratiquement pas perceptibles, notamment du fait de la croissance urbaine des villes, en partie due à l’arrivée de migrants. Parallèlement, les maladies diarrhéiques, qui constituent la seconde cause de mortalité des enfants de moins de cinq ans dans le monde, pourraient être largement évitées par un meilleur accès à l’eau. Dans ce contexte, analyser l’effet l’accès à l’eau des femmes migrantes en ville sur les chances de survie de leurs enfants se révèle un objet pertinent dans la mesure où ce sont elles qui, pour des raisons culturelles et sociales, ont en charge la santé des enfants au sein des ménages. L’utilisation de données originales sur cette thématique, recueillies à Ouagadougou en 2000, permet d’étudier les conditions de l’accès durable à l’eau courante des femmes à Ouagadougou au regard de leur statut migratoire à partir de l’analyse des transitions. Les différentiels de survie des enfants des mères migrantes et des mères non migrantes sont aussi étudiés. Il s’agit de mettre en évidence comment le statut migratoire modifie l’effet de l’accès à l’eau et s’il contribue à expliquer la mortalité différentielle des enfants après le contrôle des caractéristiques sociodémographiques de la mère. La conclusion revient sur l’un des apports de cet article : la compréhension dynamique de l’accès à l’eau courante, et notamment la démonstration que cet accès n’est pas linéaire, contrairement à la théorie classique du développement qui voit ce processus comme une échelle ascendante.
Étude des compétences propices au soin et à la transformation de l’environnement
Authors: Pruneau Diane , Kerry Jackie , Langis Joanne 
Published: May 2013

Dans un monde où l’environnement est éreinté et où l’humain est confronté à des maladies environnementales, quelles sont les compétences (modes de pensée) qui permettent à certains citoyens de transformer leur communauté ? L’étude multicas avait pour but d’identifier les compétences multidisciplinaires démontrées par deux groupes de citoyens impliqués en développement viable : des agriculteurs implantant des actions d’adaptation aux changements climatiques et des leaders aménageant un écoquartier exemplaire. Les compétences mises à profit par les acteurs des deux projets, étudiées à l’aide de l’observation participante, d’entrevues et d’analyse de documents ont été la résolution de problèmes, les connaissances techniques et endogènes, la collaboration, la pensée critique, l’optimisme, la persévérance, l’ouverture à la nouveauté et l’intérêt pour l’apprentissage. La compétence de planification souple est ressortie surtout chez les bâtisseurs de l’écoquartier. Une discussion invite le lecteur à réfléchir à la possibilité de développer des compétences environnementales chez les élèves tout en aidant ceux-ci à raisonner dans des perspectives d’identité communautaire, de viabilité et de vitalité.
