Bicoloratum Dai and Li, a new synonym of the leafhopper genus Scaphoideus Uhler (Hemiptera, Cicadellidae, Deltocephalinae), <br />with description of two new species
Authors: CHEN FANGYING , DAI WU 
Published: July 2015

Bicoloratum Dai and Li, 2011 is considered to be a junior synonym of Scaphoideus Uhler, 1889 based on study of specimens of two new species, one of which is morphologically very similar to the type species of Bicoloratum, B. pintungisis Dai and Li 2011. Three valid species now included within the genus Scaphoideus are: S. dinghuensis sp. nov., S. taishanensis sp. nov. and S. pingtungisis (Dai and Li, 2011) n. comb. The detailed morphology of the two new species is described, and photographs of their external habitus and male and female genitalia are also given.
Relative Importance of the Austral Summer and Autumn SAM in Modulating Southern Hemisphere Extratropical Autumn SST*
Authors: Zheng Fei , Li Jianping , Feng Juan , Li Yanjie , Li Yang 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
Sea surface temperature (SST) variability in the extratropical Southern Hemisphere is mainly determined by physical processes at the air–sea interface associated with the Southern Hemisphere annular mode (SAM). Both the austral summer [December–February (DJF)] and autumn [March–May (MAM)] SAM can imprint their signals on southern extratropical MAM SST. Here three approaches are employed to determine the relative importance of the DJF and MAM SAM in modulating southern extratropical MAM SST: a simple lead–lag correlation without SST decomposition, a decomposition method based on linear regression, and a new approach named the persistent signal decomposition (PSD). The results show that the DJF SAM plays a more important role than the MAM SAM in driving MAM large-scale southern extratropical SST anomalies, implying that MAM SST anomalies caused by the preceding DJF SAM would not be largely perturbed by the MAM SAM, and thus the DJF SAM can be regarded as an effective predictor for the following season’s climate. The PSD also provides an estimation of the contribution of atmospheric persistence and SST persistence toward cross-seasonal influence of the DJF SAM on MAM southern extratropical SST. The results show that this cross-seasonal influence is mainly caused by the SST persistence. The detection of the relative importance of the preceding and contemporaneous atmospheric signal in driving SSTA contributes to the understanding of air–sea interactions and helps to obtain better SST-based statistical predictions. The PSD has the potential to be employed in the North Atlantic and other extratropical oceans.
Wavelet Compression Technique for High-Resolution Global Model Data on an Icosahedral Grid

Published: July 2015

AbstractModern Earth modeling systems often use high-resolution unstructured grids to discretize their horizontal domains. One of the major challenges in working with these high-resolution models is to efficiently transmit and store large volumes of model data for operational forecasts and for modeling research.A newly developed compression technique is presented that significantly reduces the size of datasets produced by high-resolution global models that are discretized on an icosahedral grid. The compression technique is based on the wavelet transform together with a grid rearrangement algorithm and precision-controlled quantization technology. The grid rearrangement algorithm converts an icosahedral grid to a set of 10 rhombus grids that retain the spatial correlation of model data so that a three-dimensional wavelet transform can be effectively applied. The precision-controlled quantization scheme guarantees specified precision of compressed datasets.The technique is applied to the output of a global weather prediction model, the Flow-Following, Finite-Volume Icosahedral Model (FIM) developed by NOAA’s Earth System Research Laboratory. Experiments show that model data at 30-km resolution can be compressed up to 50:1 without noticeable visual differences; at specified precision requirements, the proposed compression technique achieves better compression compared to a state-of-the-art compression format [Gridded Binary (GRIB) with JPEG 2000 packing option]. In addition, model forecasts initialized with original and compressed initial conditions are compared and assessed. The assessment indicates that it is promising to use the technique to compress model data for those applications demanding high fidelity of compressed datasets.
Composition and element mobilization in pyrometallurgical slags
from the Orzeł Biały smelting plant in the Bytom–Piekary Śląskie area,
Poland
Authors: Warchulski R. , Gawęda A. , Kądziołka-Gaweł M. , Szopa K. 
Published: July 2015

AbstractWastes accumulated at Piekary Śląskie, Poland, are the result of 150 years
of continuous working of the Orzeł Biały smelting plant. Slags are composed
of: oxides (spinel, hematite, zincite); silicates and aluminosilicates
(olivine, monticellite–kirschteinite, titanite, merwinite, pyroxene,
melilite, feldspars: plagioclases and plumbean K-feldspar, nepheline,
kalsilite, leucite); sulfides (pyrrhotite, rudashevskyite, galena), metallic
phases (pure iron and iron–arsenic mixture) and secondary phases (gypsum,
rapidcreekite, apatite). Interstices between the crystalline phases are
filled by glass, concentrating toxic and potentially harmful elements, e.g.
up to 53.22 wt.% PbO. The sequence of crystallization of primary phases
depended on the local variability of oxygen fugacity and degree of
calcination, while the texture type resulted from the cooling time and
partial pressure of volatiles. Suggested crystallization temperatures are in
the range of 1200–1500°C. Bulk chemical analyses show that the slags are
composed mainly of SiO2,
Al2O3,Fe2O3, MgO and CaO.
Among the potentially harmful elements, Zn is the most common, reaching up
to 5.93 wt.%, Pb is present in concentrations up to 3.9 wt.% and As in
weathered samples exceeds 1 wt.%. Leaching tests of these elements confirms
As mobility as Zn and Pb are preferably leached from fresh slags, while As
is present in greater amounts in leachate from weathered slag samples. The
documented amounts of As, Zn, Pb and their mobility in slags produce an
environmental risk, as this material is currently used widely for commercial
purposes.
Lobular breast cancer series: imaging
Authors: Johnson Karen , Sarma Deba , Hwang E Shelley 
Published: July 2015

AbstractThe limitations of mammography in the detection and evaluation of invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) have long been recognized, presenting real clinical challenges in treatment planning for these tumors. However, advances in mammography, ultrasound, and magnetic resonance imaging present opportunities to improve the diagnosis and preoperative assessment of ILC. The evidence supporting the performance of each imaging modality will be reviewed, specifically as it relates to the pathology of ILC and its subtypes. Further, we will discuss emerging technologies that may be employed to enhance the detection rate and ultimately result in more effective screening and staging of ILC.
Unlikely Tales of Fo and Ignatius: Rethinking the Radical Enlightenment through French Appropriation of Chinese Buddhism
Authors: Burson Jeffrey D. 
Published: July 2015

The story of how Catholic missionaries and French Enlightenment writers engrafted Chinese thought into their own contested discourses of natural religion, scientific progress, or ideal political thought is well known. However, the role that Enlightenment constructions of Chinese Buddhism played in eighteenth-century France has yet to be thoroughly examined. This article therefore emphasizes the manner in which the (mis)appropriation of Chinese Buddhism into the French Enlightenment proved a significant backdrop for the attempts of Jesuit writers, notoriously Sinophile deists like Voltaire, and more metaphysically radical writers like Jean-Baptiste de Boyer, marquis d'Argens, to understand Chinese prisca theologia (i.e., their natural, original religion, and/or philosophy). Ultimately, I argue that the rather cloudy apprehension of Chinese Buddhism throughout France in the early to middle eighteenth century reveals intriguing possibilities for rethinking, and perhaps pluralizing, the nature and significance of the so-called Radical Enlightenment.
L'histoire du moyen par lequel les missionnaires catholiques et les écrivains du siècle des Lumières ont attaché la pensée chinoise aux discours contestés sur la religion naturelle, les progrès scientifiques, ou la pensée politique et normative est bien connue. Néanmoins, l'importance de la conception du bouddhisme chinois pour la société française à travers le dix-huitième siècle n'a pas été assez étudiée. Donc, cet article souligne les diverses modes par lesquelles la connaissance (voire méconnaissance) du bouddhisme chinois au siècle des Lumières en France est devenue un contexte très important pour les écrivains jésuites, les écrivains déistes et sinophiles comme Voltaire, et pour les écrivains qui prônaient un radicalisme métaphysique comme Jean-Baptiste de Boyer, marquis d'Argens, dans leurs diverses tentatives d'apprendre la prisca theologia de la Chine. Enfin, on a mis l'accent sur la connaissance nébuleuse du bouddhisme chinois que les écrivains français avaient atteinte au milieu du dix-huitième siècle, et par conséquent, la possibilité surprenante de reconceptualiser, et peutêtre de diversifier, la nature et l'importance de la thèse des « lumières radicales ».
Cincinnatus Reborn: The George Washington Myth and French Renewal during the Old Regime
Authors: Osman Julia 
Published: July 2015

George Washington is an undisputed legend in America, but he was a legend in France first. From the years of the American Revolution until 1789, Washington was a prominent figure in French literature, poetry, plays, and histories, which exaggerated and even invented some of his “nobler” characteristics, casting him as a modern Cincinnatus who exhibited the qualities of masculinity, virtue, and patriotism. In the midst of France's recovery from an embarrassing military defeat, French writers and readers used Washington's image to construct and experiment with the elements necessary for a virtuous society and victorious army. While fitting nicely into the eighteenth century's literature of criticism and penchant for hero worship, Washington's fame stood apart, as he provided a figure for a contemporary hero that encouraged rather than disparaged the French nation. Through depictions of Washington, writers defined the characteristics necessary for French elites to bring their country out of its troubles.
George Washington est devenu un héros mythique en France avant de l'être aux Etats-Unis. De la Révolution américaine jusqu'en 1789, Washington a joué un rôle important dans la littérature française par le moyen des poésies, des pièces de théâtre, et des œuvres d'histoire qui ont exagéré, voire inventé, ses caractéristiques « nobles » et qui l'ont représenté comme un Cincinnatus moderne, modèle de masculinité, de vertu, et de patriotisme. A la suite de la défaite militaire, des écrivains et lecteurs français se sont servis de l'image de Washington pour imaginer les éléments d'une société vertueuse et d'une armée victorieuse. La renommée de Washington se détache de la critique littéraire du dix-huitième siècle avec son adulation des héros du passé parce que l'Américain était un grand homme de l'époque dont la prouesse encourageait la nation française. Avec leurs représentations de Washington, les écrivains proposaient des traits nécessaires aux élites françaises qui désiraient mener la régénération de la France.
“An Encouraging Precedent”: The United States and the Separation of Church and State in France, 1832–1905
Authors: Verhoeven Timothy 
Published: July 2015

This article examines the role of the United States in the long French debate over separating church and state. From the visit of Alexis de Tocqueville to the 1905 law, key constituencies studied closely the American experience, debated its merits, and argued over its applicability to France. What emerged was a complex pattern of engagement. Depending on their particular domestic imperatives, French observers saw an American system that enshrined religious liberty, fostered atheism, or allowed the Catholic Church to become a threat to republican liberties. The influence of the United States reached a peak in the crucial years of 1903–5, when the American experience directly inspired a key clause in the 1905 law, and all sides used America to defend or attack the proposed legislation. Recognizing this brings a much-needed international dimension to the scholarship on the 1905 law and the separation of church and state.
L'histoire de la séparation des Eglises et de l'Etat en France a été abondamment étudiée. Cependant, la plupart de ces études ne tiennent pas compte du rôle des modèles étrangers. A travers le dix-neuvième siècle, et pendant les années décisives qui abouteront à la loi de 1905, les participants clés ont tourné les yeux vers l'étranger afin de trouver des leçons instructives. La nation dont l'influence était la plus marquante était les Etats-Unis. De la visite d'Alexis de Tocqueville jusqu'à la loi de 1905, les figures clés ont étudié de près l'expérience américaine. Ce qui ressort de cet engagement est complexe. En fonction de leurs impératifs domestiques, les observateurs français ont vu un système qui consacre la liberté religieuse, qui favorise l'athéisme, ou qui laisse l'église catholique devenir une menace pour les libertés républicaines. Bien qu'utilisé pour une gamme d'objectifs, l'exemple que fournissent les Etats-Unis a joué un rôle important dans l'élaboration du long débat sur le mérite de la séparation des Eglises et de l'Etat.

Published: July 2015

Abstract
7-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (NBD)-based fluorescent probe for the detection of cysteine (Cys) over homocysteine (Hcy) and amino acids under neutral physiological conditions based on thiol-induced aromatic nucleophilic substitution reaction was synthesized by the reaction of 4-chloro-7-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (NBD-Cl) with p-thiocresol. The proposed sensing mechanism was proved by mass spectrometry of the reaction mixtures. This probe was successfully applied to the fluorescence imaging of Cys in HeLa cells.

Published: July 2015

Abstract
The catalytic asymmetric phase-transfer cyanation of alkylideneindolenines, generated in situ from sulfonylalkylindoles, was developed. In the presence of sodium cyanide and a catalytic amount of chiral 1,2,3-triazolium salt, a series of sulfonylalkylindoles can be transformed into the corresponding chiral 3-sec-alkylindoles with good-to-high levels of efficiency and enantioselectivity.
Back to the Bedside: Developing a Bedside Aid for Concussion and Brain Injury
Decisions in the Emergency Department
Authors: Melnick Edward R. , Lopez Kevin , Hess Erik P. , Abujarad Fuad , Brandt Cynthia A. , Shiffman Richard N. , Post Lori A. 
Published: July 2015

Context: Current information-rich electronic health record (EHR) interfaces
require large, high-resolution screens running on desktop computers. This interface
compromises the provider’s already limited time at the bedside by physically separating
the patient from the doctor. The case study presented here describes a patient-centered
clinical decision support (CDS) design process that aims to bring the physician back to
the bedside by integrating a patient decision aid with CDS for shared use by the patient
and provider on a touchscreen tablet computer for deciding whether or not to obtain a CT
scan for minor head injury in the emergency department, a clinical scenario that could
benefit from CDS but has failed previous implementation attempts.Case Description: This
case study follows the user-centered design (UCD) approach to build a bedside aid that
is useful and usable, and that promotes shared decision-making between patients and
their providers using a tablet computer at the bedside. The patient-centered decision
support design process focuses on the prototype build using agile software development,
but also describes the following: (1) the requirement gathering phase including
triangulated qualitative research (focus groups and cognitive task analysis) to
understand current challenges, (2) features for patient education, the physician, and
shared decision-making, (3) system architecture and technical requirements, and (4)
future plans for formative usability testing and field testing.Lessons Learned: We share
specific lessons learned and general recommendations from critical insights gained in
the patient-centered decision support design process about early stakeholder engagement,
EHR integration, external expert feedback, challenges to two users on a single device,
project management, and accessibility.Conclusions: Successful implementation of this
tool will require seamless integration into the provider’s workflow. This protocol can
create an effective interface for shared decision-making and safe resource reduction at
the bedside in the austere and dynamic clinical environment of the ED and is
generalizable for these purposes in other clinical environments as well.
Improving Clinical Workflow in Ambulatory Care: Implemented Recommendations in an
Innovation Prototype for the Veteran’s Health Administration

Published: July 2015

Introduction: Human factors workflow analyses in healthcare settings prior to
technology implemented are recommended to improve workflow in ambulatory care settings.
In this paper we describe how insights from a workflow analysis conducted by NIST were
implemented in a software prototype developed for a Veteran’s Health Administration
(VHA) VAi2 innovation project and associated lessons learned.Methods: We organize the
original recommendations and associated stages and steps visualized in process maps from
NIST and the VA’s lessons learned from implementing the recommendations in the VAi2
prototype according to four stages: 1) before the patient visit, 2) during the visit, 3)
discharge, and 4) visit documentation. NIST recommendations to improve workflow in
ambulatory care (outpatient) settings and process map representations were based on
reflective statements collected during one-hour discussions with three physicians. The
development of the VAi2 prototype was conducted initially independently from the NIST
recommendations, but at a midpoint in the process development, all of the implementation
elements were compared with the NIST recommendations and lessons learned were
documented.Findings: Story-based displays and templates with default preliminary order
sets were used to support scheduling, time-critical notifications, drafting medication
orders, and supporting a diagnosis-based workflow. These templates enabled customization
to the level of diagnostic uncertainty. Functionality was designed to support
cooperative work across interdisciplinary team members, including shared documentation
sessions with tracking of text modifications, medication lists, and patient education
features. Displays were customized to the role and included access for consultants and
site-defined educator teams.Discussion: Workflow, usability, and patient safety can be
enhanced through clinician-centered design of electronic health records. The lessons
learned from implementing NIST recommendations to improve workflow in ambulatory care
using an EHR provide a first step in moving from a billing-centered perspective on how
to maintain accurate, comprehensive, and up-to-date information about a group of
patients to a clinician-centered perspective. These recommendations point the way
towards a “patient visit management system,” which incorporates broader notions of
supporting workload management, supporting flexible flow of patients and tasks, enabling
accountable distributed work across members of the clinical team, and supporting dynamic
tracking of steps in tasks that have longer time distributions.
A Framework for Usable and Effective Clinical Decision Support: Experience from the
iCPR Randomized Clinical Trial
Authors: Kannry Joseph , McCullagh Lauren , Kushniruk Andre , Mann Devin , Edonyabo Daniel , McGinn Thomas 
Published: July 2015

Introduction: The promise of Clinical Decision Support (CDS) has always been to
transform patient care and improve patient outcomes through the delivery of timely and
appropriate recommendations that are patient specific and, more often than not, are
appropriately actionable. However, the users of CDS—providers—are frequently bombarded
with inappropriate and inapplicable CDS that often are not informational, not integrated
into the workflow, not patient specific, and that may present out of date and irrelevant
recommendations.Methods: The integrated clinical prediction rule (iCPR) project was a
randomized clinical trial (RCT) conducted to determine if a novel form of CDS, i.e.,
clinical prediction rules (CPRs), could be efficiently integrated into workflow and
result in changes in outcomes (e.g., antibiotic ordering) when embedded within a
commercial electronic health record (EHR).We use the lessons learned from the iCPR
project to illustrate a framework for constructing usable, useful, and effective
actionable CDS while employing off-the-shelf functionality in a production system.
Innovations that make up the framework combine the following: (1) active and actionable
decision support, (2) multiple rounds of usability testing with iterative development
for user acceptance, (3) numerous context sensitive triggers, (4) dedicated training and
support for users of the CDS tool for user adoption, and (5) support from clinical and
administrative leadership. We define “context sensitive triggers” as being workflow
events (i.e., context) that result in a CDS intervention.Discussion: Success of the
framework can be measured by CDS adoption (i.e., intervention is being used), acceptance
(compliance with recommendations), and clinical outcomes (where appropriate). This
framework may have broader implications for the deployment of Health Information
Technology (HIT).Results and Conclusion: iCPR was well adopted(57.4% of users) and
accepted (42.7% of users). Usability testing identified and fixed many issues before the
iCPR RCT. The level of leadership support and clinical guidance for iCPR was key in
establishing a culture of acceptance for both the tool and its recommendations
contributing to adoption and acceptance. The dedicated training and support lead to the
majority of the residents reporting a high level of comfort with both iCPR tools strep
pharyngitis (64.4 percent) and pneumonia (62.7 percent) as well as a high likelihood of
using the tools in the future. A surprising framework addition resulted from usability
testing: context sensitive triggers.
