Nota sobre las ánforas II y III de Kuass (Marruecos)
Authors: Lopez Pardo Fernando 
Published: October 2011

The amphora manufacturing seems to be the principal activity in Kuass potteries, at least since fith century b.c. At first, the amphoras produced in those furnace, were classified in four types. If we fix on types II and III, we pretend to demostrate that it is only one type, known at present like Mañá-Pascual A4. We think type II restitution is caused by a wrong reconstruction from Banassa amphoras fragments.
On the other hand, we want to certain through the last findings of this type in Gibraltar area, that it is a type of salting amphora, and deduce that Kuass potteries had to provide of amphoras to the salting industry nearby, not documented in this zone at that time.
Les îles Kneiss et le monastère de Fulgence de Ruspe

Published: October 2011

La localisation dans une des îles du banc des Kneiss d'un monastère où avait séjourné l'évêque de Ruspe, d'après le témoignage de Ferrand, avait été pressentie depuis le siècle dernier ; mais Ch. Saumagne et L. Poinssot avaient cru pouvoir démontrer, sur la foi des indications de la Vie de Fulgence, que le monastère en question devait se trouver plus près du littoral, sur une bande de terre basse voisine du Ras Yonga. Or, des découvertes significatives effectuées depuis par P. Cintas et L. Feuille avaient permis de revenir à la localisation antérieure et de préciser, en reconnaissant les vestiges du monastère, de quel îlot il s'agissait.
Une prospection systématique, réalisée dans le cadre du programme tuniso-français d'étude du littoral de la Tunisie dans l'antiquité, a donné l'occasion de reconnaître l'ensemble du banc des Kneiss - côté terre et côté îles - et de confirmer la localisation du monastère dans l'îlot du milieu (Dzirat el Laboua) de l'archipel des Surkenis, au sud de la grande Kneiss (Dzirat el Bessila).
Parmi les pièces nouvelles à verser à ce dossier déjà ancien, des éléments inédits sont apparus qui mettent en lumière une modification sensible de la configuration du littoral depuis l'antiquité dans ce secteur de la Petite Syrte. C'est ainsi que la présence d'une communauté nombreuse de moines sur un îlot aussi minuscule ne laissait pas de surprendre. En réalité, il apparaît que son étendue a été considérablement réduite au cours des siècles, à la fois par l'érosion des vagues et par le relèvement du niveau de la mer, lesquels, ensemble, sont responsables de sa submersion progressive.
Les très faibles profondeurs, inférieures au mètre, qui entourent les îlots de l'archipel des petites Kneiss, donnent à penser qu'ils représentent en fait les restes d'une île unique qui dans l'antiquité était encore suffisamment étendue pour être le siège d'un grand monastère. D'ailleurs, divers portulans du Moyen Âge et de la Renaissance, signalés par d'Avezac, mentionnent une île seulement à l'emplacement des îlots d'aujourd'hui. L'expression arabe de Surkenis (le mur de Kneiss) pourrait se référer à une situation ancienne où ces îlots constituaient une même île de forme allongée.
C'est là un cas exemplaire où les données croisées de l'histoire et de la géomorphologie permettent de mieux replacer les sites archéologiques dans leur environnement naturel - plus changeant qu'on ne croit ordinairement - tout en donnant à l'analyse de ces modifications en cours des repères utilement datés.
A retrospective study of tibial plateau translation following tibial plateau levelling osteotomy stabilisation using three different plate types
Authors: Corr S. A. , Grierson J. , Arthurs G. , Woodbridge N. 
Published: October 2011

SummaryObjective:To retrospectively evaluate mediolateral translation of the proximal tibial segment (tibial plateau) after tibial plateau levelling osteotomy (TPLO), stabilised with three types of plate.Method: Pre- and postoperative radiographs of 79 dogs that had TPLO surgery using three different types of plates were reviewed. Two plate types incorporated non-locking screws: Slocum (22 cases) and Orthomed Delta (33 cases) plates. The third plate type incorporated locking screws: Synthes TPLO Locking Compression Plate (LCP) (24 cases). The radio-graphs were viewed by three Diplomate surgeons who were blinded to the type of implant used. Medial or lateral translation of the proximal tibial plateau relative to the tibial diaphysis was assessed and measured at the lateral tibial cortex at the osteotomy site.Results: Mean lateral translation of the tibial plateau was significantly greater when using the Synthes TPLO LCP with locking screws (+2.1 mm) compared to the non-locking Slocum (+0.4 mm) or Orthomed Delta (0.0 mm) plates.Clinical significance: The use of the Synthes TPLO LCP will maintain a malalignment of the tibial plateau. Accurate alignment of the tibial plateau must be ensured prior to application of the Synthes TPLO LCP.
Tibial plateau levelling osteotomy implant removal: A retrospective analysis of 129 cases
Authors: Bergh M. S. , Wang C. , Wells K. , Thompson A. M. 
Published: October 2011

SummaryObjective: To evaluate a cohort of dogs undergoing tibial plateau levelling osteotomy (TPLO) implant removal to determine key clinical features, prevalence, and indications for implant removal.Methods: Medical records of dogs undergoing TPLO implant removal at a private referral practice (Dallas Veterinary Surgical Center) between 2004–2008 were reviewed. Patient signalment, implant type, presence of concurrent medical disease, surgeon, antibiotic use, aerobic bacterial culture result, and operative findings were recorded. Data were analyzed using paired t-test, Fisher’s exact test, and Wilcoxon-rank sum test. Statistical significance was set at p <0.05.Results: The TPLO implants were removed from 126 dogs (n = 129, 4.8% of TPLO procedures) during the study period. Average time interval from TPLO to implant removal was 16.0 ± 17.8 months. The most common clinical signs were the presence of an open wound (n = 80), draining tract (n = 64), and lameness (n = 59). Culture of tissue or fluid from the implant bed or implants was positive for bacterial growth in 95/115 cases. A significantly greater proportion of the implants removed were Slocum TPLO plates (n = 109 6.1%) when compared to other TPLO plate types (n = 20 2.3%) (p <0.0001). No association was identified between a positive bacterial culture and measured variables.Clinical significance: Local bacterial infection and clinical signs of inflammation were the most common reasons for TPLO implant removal. There may be an increased implant-associated complication rate for Slocum TPLO plates in the study population.
Effect of the length of the superficial plate on bending stiffness, bending strength and strain distribution in stacked 2.0–2.7 veterinary cuttable plate constructs

Published: October 2011

SummaryObjectives: Use of stacked veterinary cut-table plates (VCP) increases the construct stiffness, but it also increases the stress protection and concentrates the stress at the extremities of the implants. We hypothesized that by shortening the superficial plate, it would not reduce the stiffness of the construct, but that it would reduce the stress concentration at the plate ends.Methods: A 3 mm fracture gap model was created with copolymer acetal rods, stacked 2.0–2.7 VCP and 2.7 screws. The constructs consisted of an 11-hole VCP bottom plate and a 5-, 7-, 9- or 11-hole VCP superficial plate. Five of each construct were randomly tested for failure in four-point bending and axial loading. Stiffness, load at yield, and area under the curve until contact (AUC) were measured. Strains were recorded during elastic deformation for each configuration.Results: During both testing methods, stiffness, load at yield and AUC progressively decreased when decreasing the length of the superficial plate. No statistically significant differences were obtained for load at yield in four-point bending and AUC in axial loading. The strain within the implant over the gap increased as the length of the superficial plate decreased.Clinical significance: Shortening the superficial plate reduces the stiffness and strength of the construct, and decreases stress concentration at the implants ends. As the cross section of the implant covering the gap remained constant, friction between the plates may play a role in the mechanical properties of stacked VCP.
Closed reduction and percutaneous fixation of sacroiliac luxations in cats using 2.4 mm cannulated screws – a cadaveric study
Authors: Binder E. , Reif U. , Biel M. , Bokemeyer J. , Kramer M. , Fischer A. 
Published: October 2011

SummaryObjectives: To describe fluoroscopically assisted percutaneous placement of 2.4 mm cannulated screws for fixation of artificially induced sacroiliac luxations in cats, and to evaluate the success of this technique in restoration of normal pelvic anatomy.Methods: Fluoroscopically assisted closed reduction and percutaneous fixation of sacroiliac luxations using 2.4 mm cannulated screws was performed in cadavers of 12 cats. Pre- and postoperative radiographs and postoperative computed tomographic scans were used to evaluate screw placement, screw purchase within the sacral body, reduction of the sacroiliac joint, pelvic canal diameter ratio, and hemipelvic canal width ratio.Results: Mean total surgical time was 6 minutes and 10 seconds ± 53 seconds and mean total time of fluoroscopic screening for each procedure was 44 seconds ± 6 seconds. Mean percent of reduction was 98.33% and mean screw purchase within the sacral body was 73%. Eleven out of 12 screws were placed in a satisfactory location in the sacral body. Pelvic canal diameter ratio and hemipelvic canal width ratio indicated successful restoration of the pelvic anatomy.Clinical significance: Our results confirm that fluoroscopically assisted percutaneous placement of 2.4 mm cannulated screws is a feasible technique for fixation of sacroiliac luxations in cats. Mechanical properties of this fixation technique need to be evaluated before the use in clinical patients.
Le père, ses instances et ses fonctions dans l'enseignement de Lacan et aujourd'hui, un quart de siècle plus tard
Authors: De Neuter Patrick , de La Hulpe Colloque 
Published: October 2011

Résumé Après avoir proposé une synthèse de l’enseignement de Lacan concernant les pères réel, imaginaire et symbolique et les différentes fonctions paternelles, l’auteur envisage comment ces fonctions peuvent être effectives dans une société « sans père, ni mari » (les Moso de Chine). Une troisième partie de l’article est consacrée à une réflexion sur l’effectuation possible de ces fonctions au cœur des diverses modalités familiales contemporaines malgré (voire grâce) le déclin du patriarcat et de l’imago paternelle. Enfin, il propose le remplacement du concept de fonction paternelle – trop marquée par le passé patriarcal - par celui de fonction tierce symboligène, subjectivante et structurante.
Le patriarcat, la filiation charnelle et les pères
Authors: Croix Laurence 
Published: October 2011

Résumé L’idéalisation du père semble se maintenir au-delà du déclin du christianisme et du patriarcat. Pourtant, la chute de l’imago paternel continue d’inquiéter plus qu’elle ne réjouit. L’histoire des civilisations monothéistes, l’évolution des lois et la complexité des théories psychanalytiques sur le père permettent d’envisager autrement que dans un sentiment d’insécurité les « nouvelles parentalités ». La dissociation de la filiation charnelle, de la transmission et de l’autorité sont inscrites depuis longtemps dans nos cultures et dans les histoires familiales et singulières des sujets. La véritable question qui se pose, avec Freud et de tout temps est celle de la transmission, au-delà peut-être de la question exclusive de la paternité et du patriarcat ?
Antigen-Fixed Leukocytes Tolerize Th2 Responses in Mouse Models of Allergy

Abstract
Allergic diseases, including asthma and food allergies, are an increasing health concern. Immunotherapy is an effective therapeutic approach for many allergic diseases but requires long dose escalation periods and has a high risk of adverse reactions, particularly in food allergy. New methods to safely induce Ag-specific tolerance could improve the clinical approach to allergic disease. We hypothesized that Ag-specific tolerance induced by the i.v. injection of Ags attached to the surface of syngeneic splenic leukocytes (Ag-coupled splenocytes [Ag-SPs]) with the chemical cross-linking agent ethylene-carbodiimide, which effectively modulate Th1/Th17 diseases, may also safely and efficiently induce tolerance in Th2-mediated mouse models of allergic asthma and food allergy. Mice were tolerized with Ag-SP before or after initiation of OVA/alum-induced allergic airway inflammation or peanut-induced food allergy. The effects on disease pathology and Th2-directed cytokine and Ab responses were studied. Ag-SP tolerance prevented disease development in both models and safely tolerized T cell responses in an Ag-specific manner in presensitized animals. Prophylactically, Ag-SP efficiently decreased local and systemic Th2 responses, eosinophilia, and Ag-specific IgE. Interestingly, Ag-SP induced Th2 tolerance was found to be partially dependent on the function of CD25+ regulatory T cells in the food allergy model, but was regulatory T cell independent in the model of allergic airway inflammation. We demonstrate that Ag-SP tolerance can be rapidly, safely, and efficiently induced in murine models of allergic disease, highlighting a potential new Ag-specific tolerance immunotherapy for Th2-associated allergic diseases.

AbstractSelf‐assembly in the presence of external forces is an adaptive, directed organization of molecular components under nonequilibrium conditions. While forces may be generated as a result of spontaneous interactions among components of a system, intervention with external forces can significantly alter the final outcome of self‐assembly. Superimposing these intrinsic and extrinsic forces provides greater degrees of freedom to control the structure and function of self‐assembling materials. In this work we investigate the role of electric fields during the dynamic self‐assembly of a negatively charged polyelectrolyte and a positively charged peptide amphiphile in water leading to the formation of an ordered membrane. In the absence of electric fields, contact between the two solutions of oppositely charged molecules triggers the growth of closed membranes with vertically oriented fibrils that encapsulate the polyelectrolyte solution. This process of self‐assembly is intrinsically driven by excess osmotic pressure of counterions and the electric field is found to modify the kinetics of membrane formation as well as membrane morphology and properties. Depending on the strength and orientation of the field we observe a significant increase or decrease of up to nearly 100% in membrane thickness, or the controlled rotation of nanofiber growth direction by 90 degrees which leads to a significant increase in mechanical stiffness. These results suggest the possibility of using electric fields to control structure in self‐assembly processes that involve the diffusion of oppositely charged molecules.

ABSTRACTFimasartan, 2‐butyl‐5‐dimethylaminothiocarbonylmethyl‐6‐methyl‐3‐[[2'‐(1H tetrazol ‐5‐yl)biphenyl‐4‐yl]methyl]pyrimidin‐4(3H)‐one (BR‐A‐657), is a novel angiotensin II receptor blocker exhibiting potent and selective AT1 receptor blocking activity. This study reports the liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry assay for the simultaneous determination of fimasartan and its active metabolite, BR‐A‐557, in rat plasma. The assay was validated to demonstrate the specificity, linearity, recovery, lower limit of quantification, accuracy, precision and stability. The multiple reaction monitoring was based on the transition of m/z 502.1 → 207.1 for fimasartan, 486.2 → 207.1 for BR‐A‐557 and 526.1 → 207.1 for BR‐A‐563 (internal standard). The assay utilized a simple precipitation procedure with acetonitrile and isocratic elution. The LLOQ was 0.2 ng/mL for fimasartan and BR‐A‐557 using 50 μL plasma samples. The assay was linear over a concentration range from 0.2 to 500 ng/mL for fimasartan and BR‐A‐557, with correlation coefficients >0.9995. The intra‐ and inter‐day assay accuracies were 93.6–108.0 and 90.8–101.4% for fimasartan and 102.2–107.1 and 99.6–103.3% for BR‐A‐557, respectively. The intra‐ and inter‐day precision were 2.4–4.4 and 3.0–13.4% for fimasartan and 3.1–5.2 and 2.8–9.8% for BR‐A‐557, respectively. The developed assay may be used to study the metabolism and mechanistic pharmacokinetics of fimasartan in future studies. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Published: October 2011

AbstractCrude oil blending is a very common practice in petroleum refineries, where the main focus is to minimize the total purchase cost of crude oils under specified blending oil properties. Crude oil blending actually has significant impacts on energy consumption from heating furnaces during crude oil processing. Conceivably, furnace energy consumption from burning fuels such as natural gas, fuel oil, or propane causes huge amounts of CO2 emissions. In this paper, a methodology framework for crude oil blending and processing with simultaneous consideration of energy, emission, and economic profit (E3) is developed. It includes four stages of work: steady‐state modeling, heating energy consumption calculation, emission model development, and economic evaluation. With Aspen HYSYS simulation, the developed methodology provides a quantitative support for refinery to identify an optimal E3 operating strategy. A case study is implemented to demonstrate the efficacy of this methodology.
Membrane‐Based Conditioning of an Innovative Oil‐Based Preservative for Food Technology

Published: October 2011

AbstractDemulsification of emulsions is of great interest for industrial applications. For developing a new, alternative preservation process, investigations are conducted for separating a mixture of water and an oil‐based preservative by membrane technology. Using a water‐in‐oil emulsion, the conventional membrane separation with hydrophobic membranes does not show a reasonable result. It was found that the oil‐based preservative leads to a hydrophilization of the membrane by its amphipathic character. Subsequently, a possible separation with a hydrophilic membrane system as a coalescing system was investigated. Different parametric studies were performed. The efficiency of the coalescence depends on the membrane material, the pore size, the transmembrane pressure, and the temperature during membrane passage as well. Best results so far have been achieved by using a polyethersulfone membrane with a pore size of 0.6 μm.

AbstractThe micelle‐water partition coefficients of reactants, products, and catalyst ligands are predicted using UNIFAC‐IF and COSMO‐RS. It is demonstrated that both models represent a reasonable tool for preliminary screening of the micellar systems for a specific continuous reaction process supported by micellar enhanced ultrafiltration (MEUF). The model reaction is the hydrogenation of itaconic acid and its derivatives (dialkyl esters) in the presence of a rhodium‐based catalyst. The effect of the size and nature of the surfactant head group and tail is explored for nonionic and ionic surfactants. The high partition coefficients of the catalyst ligands indicate that no catalyst leakage is expected in MEUF. Based on the concentration dependence of the calculated partition coefficients, the solubilization capacity of micelles is estimated.
