Authors: Navas Guerrero Elena , Garrido Carrillo Antonio 
Published: June 2015

Se han identificado un total de 70 grafitos históricos, realizados en el revoco original de dos casas del Barrio del Realejo de Granada. Los inmuebles están situados en el entorno de la antigua muralla medieval, junto a la desaparecida Puerta del Pescado, ubicada al sur de la Medina. La cronología del edificio es de principios del siglo XIX. Los grafitos son de una gran variedad temática, siendo los más numerosos las representaciones de barcos, figuras femeninas con miriñaques, círculos trazados a compás y elementos de cuentas; aunque también hay cruces, elementos arquitectónicos, escritura, corazones, etc.
La formulación del estilo mudéjar en el siglo del Romanticismo: una propuesta de estudio desde la literatura de viajes
Authors: Salido López Pedro Victorio 
Published: June 2015

En 1859, José Amador de los Ríos pronunció su discurso de entrada a la Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando con el título "El estilo <em>mudéjar</em> en arquitectura". Bajo esta denominación se iban a incluir sencillas construcciones repartidas por todo el territorio español que participaban de las características propias de las corrientes artísticas cristianas y, a su vez, se veían influenciadas por el arte islámico desarrollado en Al-Andalus entre el 711 y 1492. Se iniciaba así uno de los debates historiográficos más polémicos de la Historia del Arte. Para algunos estudiosos el mudéjar se mostraba como un nuevo estilo representativo del arte español. En contra, otros especialistas consideraron que los edificios catalogados bajo la denominación de Amador de los Ríos no perdían la esencia del arte de su tiempo, llegando a defender que el "estilo mudéjar" no era más que un marcador de identidad nacional propio del siglo XIX. En este sentido, el trabajo que se desarrolla en las líneas siguientes presenta una reflexión en torno a este debate y la legitimidad de usar el término acuñado por de los Ríos como categoría estilística. Para ello me serviré de las descripciones realizadas por los viajeros extranjeros de los edificios toledanos colocados al amparo del estilo mudéjar, con 1859 como año que marcó un antes y un después.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 42.55pt;">A isotretinoína é uma droga de ação teratogênica, utilizada no tratamento da acne vulgar por causar a redução no tamanho das glândulas sebáceas e ainda normalizando a queratina na abertura do folículo piloso. Relatos indicam que o uso desse fármaco está envolvido com malformações ósseas. Objetivou-se nessa pesquisa analisar as conseqüências do uso da isotretinoína sobre o processo de ossificação endocondral, de jovens ratos Wistar machos submetidos à ingestão oral de uma dose de 8mg/kg/dia dessa medicação, do 17º ao 30º dia de vida. A amostra composta por 20 espécimes foi distribuída entre o Grupo Controle (recebendo apenas óleo vegetal, com n=10) e o Grupo Experimento (recebendo a isotretinoína diluída em óleo vegetal, com n=10). Ao fim da administração os animais foram eutanasiados e os fêmures foram coletados, dissecados e realizados cortes para a confecção das lâminas histológicas coradas pela técnica da Hematoxilina-Eosina. A análise microscópica do material permitiu verificar uma redução da população de células no canal celular e na epífise óssea, decréscimo da matriz osteóide, má definição e redução do espessamento do periósteo e áreas mal definidas no processo de osteogênese no Grupo Experimento em relação ao Grupo Controle. Nesse sentido, com base nos resultados, foi possível concluir que houve um retardo no processo de ossificação e redução da matriz óssea do grupo submetido ao tratamento com isotretinoína, vindo a alentar as suspeitas de estudos anteriores onde se relatou as malformações ósseas decorrentes do uso desse fármaco.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 5.0pt; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 5.0pt; margin-left: 0cm; text-align: justify;">Palavras-Chave: </p>

Published: June 2015

<p>A casca da banana é um resíduo proveniente da agroindústria. Trata-se de um material biodegradável, com baixo custo e que apresenta afinidade por compostos orgânicos e metais tóxicos. O presente artigo buscou avaliar o potencial adsortivo da casca da banana na remoção de chumbo e cobre em efluentes. Inicialmente foi preparado o adsorvente e adsorvato, em seguida as amostras foram caracterizadas pelas técnicas FTIR, MEV e TG/DSC. Posteriormente, foram testadas na adsorção do íon chumbo e cobre. Foram observados os grupos funcionais presentes na casca da banana com destaque para lignina, celulose e hemicelulose. Os melhores resultados de adsorção para o chumbo ocorreram à 50°C com aproximadamente 99,6% de remoção e 70% de remoção para o cobre a 27ºC . Dessa forma podemos notar que a casca da banana é um bom adsorvente natural e tem viabilidade para ser utilizado como material alternativo em procedimentos de adsorção pelo seu baixo custo, facilidade de manuseio e seletividade.</p>
Does allochthony in lakes change across an elevation gradient?
Authors: Rose Kevin C. , Williamson Craig E. , Kissman Carrie E. H. , Saros Jasmine E. 
Published: June 2015

Ecosystems are subsidized with inputs of mass and energy from their surroundings. These allochthonous inputs regulate many ecosystem characteristics. In inland waters, terrestrial inputs of organic matter regulate food‐web structure, ecosystem metabolism, water clarity, and thermal stratification. Future changes in allochthony may be especially pronounced in high‐elevation ecosystems due to increases in vegetation and precipitation associated with climate change. Several techniques exist to characterize the degree of allochthony of organic matter in aquatic systems, including metrics such as ΔH, the net isotopic discrimination between water and particulate organic matter (POM) of deuterium stable isotopes, and the fluorescence index (FI), which characterizes the fluorescence of dissolved organic matter (DOM). Despite the importance of allochthonous organic carbon inputs, little is known about either how allochthony varies across elevation gradients or whether different metrics are similarly related to allochthony.We measured ΔH, FI, and a suite of related water‐quality characteristics in 30 lakes across a montane to alpine elevation gradient (2340 to 3205 m) in the Beartooth Mountains of Montana and Wyoming, USA, to understand how FI and ΔH varied with elevation, with one another, and with other allochthony‐related water‐quality characteristics. We hypothesized that allochthony of POM and DOM would decrease at higher elevations, with alpine lakes above treeline being more autochthonous compared with low‐elevation lakes below treeline. We observed a significant inverse linear relationship between ΔH and FI, with both metrics indicating a decrease in allochthony at higher elevations. Characteristics including the natural log of the ratio of concentrations of dissolved organic carbon to chlorophyll a (ln(DOC : Chl)), the spectral slope ratio between different spectra of two wavebands (SR, ratio of spectra at 275–295 to 350–400 nm), and a ratio of diffuse attenuation coefficients at 320 and 380 nm (KR, Kd320 : Kd380) varied with both ΔH and FI while pH varied only with ΔH. High‐elevation systems were characterized by low ln(DOC : Chl) and KR, and high SR and pH. These results indicate that high‐elevation lakes are more autochthonous than low‐elevation lakes. The relationships among ΔH, FI, elevation, and other water‐quality characteristics provide important insights to understand future changes in carbon cycling in mountain ecosystems.
Nitrogen Mineralization from Anaerobically Digested Centrifuge Cake and Aged Air‐Dried Biosolids

Published: June 2015

ABSTRACT: This study was conducted to estimate nitrogen (N) mineralization of anaerobically digested centrifuge cake from the Stickney Water Reclamation Plant (SWRP) and Calumet Water Reclamation Plant (CWRP), lagoon‐aged air‐dried biosolids from the CWRP, and Milorganite at three rates of application (0, 12.5 and 25 Mg ha−1). The N mineralized varied among biosolids as follows: Milorganite (44%) > SWRP centrifuge cake (35%) > CWRP centrifuge cake (31%) > aged air‐dried (13%). The N mineralized in the SWRP cake (32%) and CWRP aged air‐dried biosolids (12%) determined from the15N study were in agreement with the first study. The N mineralization value for centrifuge cake biosolids observed in our study is higher than the value given in the Part 503 rule and Illinois Part 391 guidelines. These results will be used to fine‐tune biosolids application rate to match crop N demand without compromising yield while minimizing any adverse effect on the environment.

Published: June 2015

BackgroundChildren with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) face evident motor difficulties in daily functioning. Little is known, however, about their difficulties in specific activities of daily living (ADL).ObjectiveThe purposes of this study were: (1) to investigate differences between children with DCD and their peers with typical development for ADL performance, learning, and participation, and (2) to explore the predictive values of these aspects.DesignThis was a cross-sectional study.MethodsIn both a clinical sample of children diagnosed with DCD (n=25 [21 male, 4 female], age range=5–8 years) and a group of peers with typical development (25 matched controls), the children's parents completed the DCDDaily-Q. Differences in scores between the groups were investigated using t tests for performance and participation and Pearson chi-square analysis for learning. Multiple regression analyses were performed to explore the predictive values of performance, learning, and participation.ResultsCompared with their peers, children with DCD showed poor performance of ADL and less frequent participation in some ADL. Children with DCD demonstrated heterogeneous patterns of performance (poor in 10%–80% of the items) and learning (delayed in 0%–100% of the items). In the DCD group, delays in learning of ADL were a predictor for poor performance of ADL, and poor performance of ADL was a predictor for less frequent participation in ADL compared with the control group.LimitationsA limited number of children with DCD were addressed in this study.ConclusionsThis study highlights the impact of DCD on children's daily lives and the need for tailored intervention.

OBJECT
Endoscopic surgery plays a significant role in the treatment of intracerebral hemorrhage. However, the residual hematoma cannot be measured intraoperatively from the endoscopic view, and it is difficult to determine the precise location of the endoscope within the hematoma cavity. The authors attempted to develop real-time ultrasound-guided endoscopic surgery using a bur-hole-type probe.

METHODS
From November 2012 to March 2014, patients with hypertensive putaminal hemorrhage who underwent endoscopic hematoma removal were enrolled in this study. Real-time ultrasound guidance was performed with a bur-hole-type probe that was advanced via a second bur hole, which was placed in the temporal region. Ultrasound was used to guide insertion of the endoscope sheath as well as to provide information regarding the location of the hematoma during surgical evacuation. Finally, the cavity was irrigated with artificial cerebrospinal fluid and was observed as a low-echoic space, which facilitated detection of residual hematoma.

RESULTS
Ten patients with putaminal hemorrhage > 30 cm3 were included in this study. Their mean age (± SD) was 60.9 ± 8.6 years, and the mean preoperative hematoma volume was 65.2 ± 37.1 cm3. The mean percentage of hematoma that was evacuated was 96% ± 3%. None of the patients exhibited rebleeding after surgery.

CONCLUSIONS
This navigation method was effective in demonstrating both the real-time location of the endoscope and real-time viewing of the residual hematoma. Use of ultrasound guidance minimized the occurrence of brain injury due to hematoma evacuation.
Patency of the anterior choroidal artery covered with a flow-diverter stent

Published: June 2015

OBJECT
The concept of the flow-diverter stent (FDS) is to induce aneurysmal thrombosis while preserving the patency of the parent vessel and any covered branches. In some circumstances, it is impossible to avoid dangerously covering small branches, such as the anterior choroidal artery (AChA), with the stent. In this paper, the authors describe the clinical and angiographic effects of covering the AChA with an FDS.

METHODS
Between April 2011 and July 2013, 92 patients with intracranial aneurysms were treated with the use of FDSs in the authors’ institution. For 20 consecutive patients (21.7%) retrospectively included in this study, this involved the unavoidable covering of the AChA with a single FDS during endovascular therapy. AChAs feeding the choroid plexus were classified as the long-course group (14 cases), and those not feeding the choroid plexus were classified as the short-course group (6 cases). Clinical symptoms and the angiographic aspect of the AChA were evaluated immediately after stent delivery and during follow-up. Neurological examinations were performed to rule out hemiparesis, hemihypesthesia, hemianopsia, and other cortical signs.

RESULTS
FDS placement had no immediate effect on AChA blood flow. Data were obtained from 1-month clinical follow-up in all patients and from midterm angiographic follow-up in 17 patients (85.0%), with a mean length of 9.8 ± 5.4 months. No patient in either group complained of transient or permanent symptoms related to an AChA occlusion. In all cases, the AChA remained patent without any flow changes.

CONCLUSIONS
The results of this study suggest that when impossible to avoid, the AChA may be safely covered with a single FDS during intracranial aneurysm treatment, irrespective of anatomy and anastomoses.
Trigeminal neuralgia without neurovascular compression presents earlier than trigeminal neuralgia with neurovascular compression
Authors: Ko Andrew L. , Lee Albert , Raslan Ahmed M. , Ozpinar Alp , McCartney Shirley , Burchiel Kim J. 
Published: June 2015

OBJECT
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) occurs and recurs in the absence of neurovascular compression (NVC). To characterize what may be distinct patient populations, the authors examined age at onset in patients with TN with and without NVC.

METHODS
A retrospective review of patients undergoing posterior fossa surgery for Type I TN at Oregon Health & Science University from 2009 to 2013 was undertaken. Charts were reviewed, and imaging and operative data were collected for patients with and without NVC. Mean, median, and the empirical cumulative distribution of onset age were determined. Statistical analysis was performed using Student t-test, Wilcoxon and Kolmogorov-Smirnoff tests, and Kaplan-Meier analysis. Multivariate analysis was performed using a Cox proportional hazards model.

RESULTS
The charts of 219 patients with TN were reviewed. There were 156 patients who underwent posterior fossa exploration and microvascular decompression or internal neurolysis: 129 patients with NVC and 27 without NVC. Mean age at symptoms onset for patients with and without NVC was 51.1 and 42.6 years, respectively. This difference (8.4 years) was significant (t-test: p = 0.007), with sufficient power to detect an effect size of 8.2 years. Median age between groups with and without NVC was 53.25 and 41.2 years, respectively (p = 0.003). Histogram analysis revealed a bimodal age at onset in patients without NVC, and cumulative distribution of age at onset revealed an earlier presentation of symptoms (p = 0.003) in patients without NVC. Chi-square analysis revealed a trend toward female predominance in patients without NVC, which was not significant (p = 0.08). Multivariate analysis revealed that age at onset was related to NVC but not sex, symptom side or distribution, or patient response to medical treatment.

CONCLUSIONS
NVC is neither sufficient nor necessary for the development of TN. Patients with TN without NVC may represent a distinct population of younger, predominantly female patients. Further research into the pathophysiology underlying this debilitating disease is needed.
Progressive postnatal pansynostosis: an insidious and pernicious form of craniosynostosis

Published: June 2015

OBJECT
Progressive postnatal pansynostosis (PPP) is a rare form of craniosynostosis that is characterized by a normal head shape, insidious decrease in percentile head circumference, and high rates of elevated intracranial pressure (ICP). This investigation describes the clinical, radiographic, and genetic features of this entity.

METHODS
The authors’ craniofacial database for the period 1997–2013 was retrospectively culled to identify patients who had a normal or near-normal head shape and CT-confirmed multiple-suture synostosis. Patients with kleeblatt-schädel or previous craniofacial surgery were excluded. All demographic information was collected and analyzed.

RESULTS
Seventeen patients fit the inclusion criteria. Nine patients had a syndromic diagnosis: Crouzon syndrome (n = 4), Pfeiffer syndrome (n = 2), Saethre-Chotzen syndrome (n = 1), Apert syndrome (n = 1), and achondroplasia (n = 1). With the exception of 3 patients with mild turricephaly, all patients had a relatively normal head shape. Patients were diagnosed at an average age of 62.9 months. Nearly all patients had some combination of clinical, radiographic, or ophthalmological evidence of increased ICP.

CONCLUSIONS
PPP is insidious; diagnosis is typically delayed because the clinical signs are subtle and appear gradually. All normocephalic infants or children with a known or suspected craniosynostotic disorder should be carefully monitored; any decrease in percentile head circumference or signs/symptoms of increased ICP should prompt CT evaluation.
Development and evaluation of microsatellite markers for Acer miyabei (Sapindaceae), a threatened maple species in East Asia
Authors: Saeki Ikuyo , Hirao Akira S. , Kenta Tanaka 
Published: June 2015

Premise of the study:Twelve microsatellite markers were developed and characterized in a threatened maple species, Acer miyabei (Sapindaceae), for use in population genetic analyses.Methods and Results:Using Ion Personal Genome Machine (PGM) sequencing, we developed microsatellite markers with perfect di‐ and trinucleotide repeats. These markers were tested on a total of 44 individuals from two natural populations of A. miyabei subsp. miyabei f. miyabei in Hokkaido Island, Japan. The number of alleles per locus ranged from two to eight. The observed and expected heterozygosities per locus ranged from 0.05 to 0.75 and from 0.05 to 0.79, respectively. Some of the markers were successfully transferred to the closely related species A. campestre, A. platanoides, and A. pictum.Conclusions:The developed markers will be useful in characterizing the genetic structure and diversity of A. miyabei and will help to understand its spatial genetic variation, levels of inbreeding, and patterns of gene flow, thereby providing a basis for conservation.

Authors: Ziylan Sule , Kiziloglu Ozge Yabas , Yenerel Nursal Melda , Gokce Berna , Ciftci Ferda 
Published: June 2015

Purpose:
To compare the macular thickness and volume of highly myopic children with healthy controls, using third generation optical coherence tomography (OCT).

Methods:

OCT was performed on highly myopic (cycloplegic spherical equivalent refraction > −6.00 diopters [D]) children aged 3 to 7 years old and healthy controls (spherical equivalent refraction −2.00 to +4.00 D) between 2011 and 2013. OCT measurements of the average thicknesses of the fovea (central 1 mm) and inner (1 to 3 mm) and outer (3 to 6 mm) parafovea in superior, temporal, inferior, and nasal quadrants and total volume of the macular scan area were recorded. The differences between the two groups were tested with the Mann–Whitney
U
test.

Results:
There were 15 patients with high myopia and 11 controls. Foveal thickness (central 1 mm) was significantly greater in the high myopia group. The parafoveal thicknesses in all quadrants of the inner and outer circles were significantly thinner in the high myopia group. The average macular volume of the highly myopic eyes was significantly smaller than the control eyes.

Conclusions:
Anatomic changes in the retina occur even in young children with high myopia. Macular thickness characteristics of highly myopic children may influence the interpretation of data obtained with OCT.
