On the Synonymy of Macropodus chinensis (Bloch, 1790) and M. opercularis (Linné, 1758) and the Rehabilitation of M. ocellatus Cantor, 1842 (Pisces, Belontiidae)The scientific name Macropodus chinensis (BLOCH, 1790) applied to the Roundtailed Paradisefish by MYERS (1932) is a junior synonym of Macropodus opercularis (LINNÉ, 1758), a related species with pronounced dark bars and a forked tail. This fact was clarified on the basis of the holotype of Chaetodon chinensis BLOCH, 1790 believed to be missing for a long time and now identified by the author. The correct scientific name for the Roundtailed Paradisefish should be Macropodus ocellatus CANTOR, 1842. The two type specimens of this taxon, stored in the British Museum (Natural History), are described and a lectotype is selected.
𝒞1 continuous discretization of gradient elasticity
Authors: Fischer Paul , Mergheim Julia , Steinmann Paul 
Published: August 2010

AbstractFor the modeling of size effects, gradient continua can be applied. In this contribution, strain gradients are used in a nonlinear hyperelastic material model. The resulting partial differential equations are solved numerically in terms of a Galerkin scheme requiring 𝒞1 continuity of the shape functions. The performance of three 𝒞1 continuous finite elements and the 𝒞1 Natural Element method is compared. (© 2009 Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
Validation of a Nomogram for Predicting Overall Survival After Resection of Pulmonary Metastases from Colorectal Cancer at a Single Center
Authors: Kanemitsu Yukihide , Kato Tomoyuki , Komori Koji , Fukui Takayuki , Mitsudomi Tetsuya 
Published: August 2010

AbstractBackgroundThe goal of this study was to validate a survival nomogram at a single center, originally developed at multiple institutions in Japan, which combines readily available preoperative variables to predict overall survival after resection of pulmonary metastases from colorectal cancer.MethodsAn external patient cohort from a prospective pulmonary metastases database at the Aichi Cancer Center in Japan was used to test the validity of the pulmonary metastases from a colorectal cancer nomogram. The cohort included 58 consecutive patients who had surgery between January 1999 and December 2005. Nomogram predictions for 3‐ and 5‐year overall survival were calculated for each patient and compared with actual survival. The concordance index was used as an accuracy measure.ResultsData for all necessary variables were available for all patients. At the last follow‐up, 30 patients were alive, with a median follow‐up of 39 (range, 5–94) months. The 1‐, 2‐, 3‐, and 5‐year overall survival rates were 96.6, 84.5, 70.5, and 48.9%, respectively. The nomogram concordance index was 0.81 with excellent calibration for both 3‐ and 5‐year overall survival rates.ConclusionsThe high predictive accuracy of pulmonary metastases from a colorectal cancer nomogram demonstrates that this predictive tool derived at multiple institutions can be applied to a small cohort of patients in a single center.
Gastric Tube Reconstruction by Laparoscopy‐Assisted Surgery Attenuates Postoperative Systemic Inflammatory Response after Esophagectomy for Esophageal Cancer

Published: August 2010

AbstractBackgroundConventional open procedures have been supplanted in part by less invasive approaches, such as laparoscopic surgery developed for treating gastrointestinal malignancies. However, it is unclear whether laparoscopy‐assisted gastric tube reconstruction (LAGT) can attenuate the postoperative systemic inflammatory response after esophagectomy for esophageal cancer.MethodsWe investigated the postoperative clinical course of the systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) in patients who underwent an esophagectomy for esophageal cancer by LAGT (LAGT group) and gastric tube reconstruction by conventional open surgery (Open group).ResultsCompared with the Open group, the LAGT group had a significantly shorter operative time (539.6 min vs. 639.8 min), shorter duration of postoperative mechanical ventilation (1.1 days vs. 2.8 days), and shorter length of stay in the intensive care unit (2.1 days vs. 4.4 days). The LAGT group also had a significantly shorter SIRS duration (1.4 days vs. 2.7 days), a significantly lower incidence of SIRS, and a smaller number of positive SIRS criteria. Throughout the investigation period, the postoperative white blood cell count was lower in the LAGT group than in the Open group. Additionally, in the LAGT group, the heart rate was lower on each postoperative day (POD), and the respiratory rate was significantly lower on postoperative days (PODs) 1 and 4. There was no difference in postoperative oxygenation, morbidity, and mortality between the groups. The C‐reactive protein level on PODs 3 and 4 was significantly lower in the LAGT group than in the Open group.ConclusionsLaparoscopy‐assisted gastric tube reconstruction significantly attenuates postoperative SIRS, and it is therefore a potentially less invasive surgical procedure.
Amelioration of functional, biochemical and molecular deficits by epigallocatechin gallate in experimental model of alcoholic neuropathy
Authors: Tiwari Vinod , Kuhad Anurag , Chopral Kanwaljit 
Published: August 2010

AbstractLong term alcohol consumption leads to decreased nociceptive threshold characterized by spontaneous burning pain, hyperalgesia and allodynia. The mechanism involved in this pain includes increased oxidative‐nitrosative stress, release of pro‐inflammatory cytokines and neuronal apoptosis. The present study was designed to explore the protective effect of epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate against alcoholic neuropathic pain in rats. Rats fed with alcohol (35%) for 10 weeks showed markedly decreased tail flick latency in tail‐immersion test (thermal hyperalgesia), vocalization threshold in Randall—Sellito test (mechanical hyperalgesia) and paw‐withdrawal threshold in von‐Frey hair test (mechanical allodynia) along with enhanced oxidative‐nitrosative stress and inflammatory mediators (TNF‐α, IL‐1β and TGF‐β1 levels). Co‐administration of epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate (25–100 mg/kg) significantly and dose‐dependently prevented functional, biochemical and molecular changes associated with alcoholic neuropathy. In conclusion, the current findings suggest the neuroprotective potential of epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate in attenuating the functional, biochemical and molecular alterations associated with alcoholic neuropathy through modulation of oxido‐inflammatory cascade.
Experimental management of Brown Kiwi Apteryx mantelli in central Northland, New Zealand

Published: August 2010

SummaryThe population growth of Brown Kiwi Apteryx mantelli was measured under four different management regimes: unmanaged, predator trapping, predator poisoning, and Bank of New Zealand Operation Nest Egg™ (BNZONE) — the removal of eggs for artificial incubation and return of resultant subadults to the wild. Life table analysis revealed that high adult mortality (7.3% per annum), caused mainly by domestic dog Canis familiaris and Ferret Mustela furo predation was the critical factor affecting Brown Kiwi populations in central Northland. The 13.8-year life expectancy of adults was only one-third of what can be expected in the absence of these two predators. Predation of Brown Kiwi chicks and juveniles (< 1 kg) by Stoats Mustela erminea and, to a lesser extent, domestic cats Felis catus, was also important. Unmanaged populations declined at 2.5% per annum. Trapping pests in a 200 ha area was largely ineffective, with the population declining by 1.7% per annum. Poisoning pests allowed Brown Kiwi populations to increase at 3.3% per annum. BNZONE proved to be by far the most effective tool, resulting in a 12.5% annual population increase, mainly due to 83% chick survival to six months old, compared with 10% survival in unmanaged sites. There were no observable behavioural problems associated with chicks being reared ex situ, but BNZONE was the most expensive tool and benefited only the Brown Kiwi. This study has helped to develop a range of tools that are now being used to facilitate recovery of populations of all four threatened species of kiwi in New Zealand, and the experimental approach used has wider application in management of other threatened species.
New Earth Science Research Opportunities: Committee Seeks Input
Authors: Lange Mark 
Published: August 2010

In 2001, the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) published Basic Research Opportunities in the Earth Sciences, which helped define the priorities for the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences (EAR) over the past decade. Motivated by this report, EAR funded key components of the EarthScope initiative, established a network of Critical Zone Observatories, and expanded its postdoctoral fellowship programs.Ten years later, again at the behest of NSF, NAS has assembled the Committee on New Research Opportunities in the Earth Sciences at the National Science Foundation. The committee will, among other things, identify high‐ priority new and emerging research opportunities in the Earth sciences over the next decade, including surface and deep Earth processes and interdisciplinary research with fields such as ocean and atmospheric sciences, biology, engineering, computer science, and social and behavioral sciences. The committee also will identify key instrumentation and facilities needed to support these new and emerging research opportunities.
Roundtable Explores Remote Sensing for Disaster Relief
Authors: Showstack Randy 
Published: August 2010

Against a backdrop of recent natural disasters—including the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, Hurricane Katrina in 2005, and the 2010 Haiti earthquake—an 8 July roundtable at the U.S. National Academies explored ways to improve the use of remote sensing data before, during, and after disasters.At the “From Reality 2010 to Vision 2020” roundtable in Washington, D.C., speakers from U.S. federal government agencies and the private sector generally agreed that there would likely be continued improvements in remote sensing instrumentation, including reduced size and weight and the capability for more rapid dissemination of remote sensing data. However, they also stressed the need for closer collaboration among agencies and settling political and turf battles, overcoming security and other restrictions such as with sharing high‐ resolution data, and responding better to user needs.

These include establishing a National Policy for the Stewardship of the Ocean, Coasts, and Great Lakes; creating a National Ocean Council, which will hold its first meeting later this summer; strengthening the ocean governance structure; and providing for the development of coastal and marine spatial plans.The task force report indicates that U.S. ocean policy includes protecting, maintaining, and restoring ocean, coastal, and Great Lakes ecosystems and resources; increasing scientific understanding and using the best available science and knowledge to inform decisions about them; and improving the understanding and awareness of changing environmental conditions.
New Format for AGU Print Journals
Authors: Cook Bill 
Published: August 2010

AGU has adopted a new print format for Journal of Geophysical Research, Water Resources Research, Geophysical Research Letters, and Reviews of Geophysics, starting with the July 2010 issues. In the new format, pages are condensed and rotated so that two pages of journal text fit side by side on one printed page.Why has AGU chosen to go this route? The rising costs of print, the decline of print subscriptions, and the need to conserve resources used in printing have led us to consider many options in delivering our journals to our customers. The most effective version, of course, is the electronic version, but many customers still require print copies for various purposes. As long as there is a demand for print, we will attempt to meet that demand and to explore all possibilities for reducing the costs of the format.
Swallow Characteristics in Patients With Oculopharyngeal Muscular Dystrophy
Authors: Palmer Phyllis M. , Neel Amy T. , Sprouls Gwyneth , Morrison Leslie 
Published: August 2010

Purpose
This prospective investigation evaluates oral weakness and its impact on swallow function, weight, and quality of life in patients with oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy (OPMD).

Method
Intraoral pressure, swallow pressure, and endurance were measured using an Iowa Oral Performance Instrument in participants with OPMD and matched controls. Timed water swallow, weight, and quality of life were also assessed.

Results
Participants with OPMD were weaker than controls. Oral weakness impacted strength, swallow pressure, swallow capacity, swallow volume, swallow time, and quality of life. Tongue endurance was not affected by oral weakness.

Conclusion
This investigation provides further insight into the swallow function of patients with myopathic disease. Muscle fiber loss leads to weakness, which results in reductions in swallow function and quality of life. Weight and endurance are not greatly altered.
The Intonation–Syntax Interface in the Speech of Individuals With Parkinson’s Disease
Authors: MacPherson Megan K. , Huber Jessica E. , Snow David P. 
Published: August 2010

Purpose
This study examined the effect of Parkinson’s disease (PD) on the intonational marking of final and nonfinal syntactic boundaries and investigated whether the effect of PD on intonation was sex specific.

Method
Eight women and 8 men with PD and 16 age- and sex-matched control participants read a passage at comfortable pitch, rate, and loudness. Nuclear tones from final and nonfinal syntactic boundaries in clauses and lists were extracted. Measures of fundamental frequency (F0) were made on each tone contour.

Results
Individuals with PD demonstrated impaired differentiation of syntactic boundary finality/nonfinality with contour direction. They produced a lower proportion of falling contours in final boundaries and a higher proportion of falling contours in nonfinal boundaries than did control participants. Although not mediated by syntax, the effect of PD on F0 standard deviation (F0 SD) and pitch range in semitones (PRST) was sex specific. Women with PD produced greater F0 SD and PRST than did men with PD and women without PD. Men with PD produced lower PRST than did men without PD.

Conclusions
Impaired intonational marking of syntactic boundaries likely contributes to dysprosody and reduced communicative effectiveness in PD. The effect of PD on intonation was sex specific. The results are not fully explained by PD-related motor execution impairments.
Effects of Noise and Speech Intelligibility on Listener Comprehension and Processing Time of Korean-Accented English
Authors: Wilson Erin O’Brien , Spaulding Tammie J. 
Published: August 2010

PurposeThis study evaluated the effects of noise and speech intelligibility on the processing of speech produced from native English; high-intelligibility, Korean-accented English; and moderate-intelligibility, Korean-accented English speakers.MethodBoth listener comprehension, determined by accuracy judgment on true/false sentences, and processing time, estimated from response latency, were assessed under the following 3 conditions: quiet, +10 dB signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and +5 dB SNR. Fifty-four monolingual, English-speaking adults served as the listeners for this study.ResultsWhile noise did not affect the time it took to process foreign-accented speech, it decreased the comprehension of the foreign-accented speech more so than the native speech. Decreasing English intelligibility also resulted in reduced listener comprehension. In addition, the processing time needed to comprehend the intended message depended on the intelligibility of the foreign-accented speaker. Listener comprehension negatively correlated with processing time.ConclusionThe findings suggest that decreased speech intelligibility and adverse listening conditions can be major challenges for effective communication between foreign-accented speakers and native listeners. The results also indicate that foreign-accented speech requires more effortful processing relative to native speech under certain conditions, affecting both comprehension and processing efficiency.
