XXV.—An Account of a Discovery of early Saxon Remains at Barrow Furlong, on the Hill Farm, in the parish of Marston St. Lawrence, in the county of Northampton. By Sir Henry Dryden, Bart. Communicated to the Society through C. Roach Smith, Esq. F.S.A. in a Letter addressed to J. Y. Akerman, Esq. Secretary
Authors: Dryden Henry 
Published: June 2012

Sir Henry Dryden has very kindly placed in my hands his notes and drawings illustrative of a discovery of sepulchral remains in the county of Northampton made a few years since, chiefly under his personal inspection.The care with which the facts disclosed on that occasion have been collected and recorded, and the copious manner in which drawings have been made of the various objects discovered, give an unusual degree of interest to this communication, which I am sure the Society will appreciate in common with all who in such matters have experienced the advantage of being furnished with a full statement of circumstances, and, on the contrary, have felt the embarrassment that frequently arises from non-attention to particulars.
XXXV.—Note on some further Discoveries in the Anglo-Saxon Burial-Ground at Harnham Hill, near Salisbury. By John Yonge Akerman, F.S.A. Secretary
Authors: Akerman John Yonge 
Published: June 2012

Permission having been kindly afforded the Society to renew their researches in the Low Field at Harnham, the excavations, at their expense, were resumed by me on Tuesday, the 11th of April, and continued for three days.A portion of the hedge westward of the gate-post, at which my former operations commenced last year, having been removed, we proceeded to dig a trench in that direction, south of and parallel to the first-discovered grave. Amongst a quantity of loose soil was found the iron-spike of the butt-end of a spear, which had probably belonged to the staff of the spear discovered by Robert Wallan, as noticed in my previous communication, and had been turned over unnoticed. Further excavations in this direction showed that the earth had not been moved, and all hope of finding other graves was abandoned.
IV.—Account of the Muster of the Citizens of London in the 31st year of the reign of Henry VIII. Communicated from the Records of the Corporation of London, by Thomas Lott, Esq. F.S.A., in a Letter to Sir Henry Ellis, K.H., F.R.S., Secretary
Authors: Lott Thomas 
Published: June 2012

On making some researches amongst the Records of the Corporation, assisted by our able and intelligent officer Mr. Firth, my attention was led by him to a History of the Muster of the Citizens in the reign of King Henry VIII., contained in the Journal, No. 14, folio 166.An old and valuable Fellow of our Society having at a recent meeting invited the junior branches to transmit communications, I have thought that the account of this Muster might form an interesting Paper, and I have therefore copied it, and forward it to you herewith.
VI. Account of the Old Bridge at Stratford-le-Bow in Essex, in a Letter from Alfred Burges, Esq. addressed to Sir Henry Ellis, K.H., F.R.S., Secretary
Authors: Burges Alfred 
Published: June 2012

I have the honour to send you an account and some drawings of the celebrated Old Bridge at Stratford le-Bow, and I hope you will consider them of sufficient interest to be submitted to the Society of Antiquaries.Since the paper was written, the greater part of the bridge has been taken down to give place to another of granite, of one arch, which is now in progress of erection under the direction of Mr. Walker and myself as engineers; and, should any further information respecting the Old Bridge be obtained during the progress of the work, I shall have great pleasure in transmitting it to you.
XXVI. On some Anglo-Saxon Remains, discovered at Stowting, in the county of Kent: in a Letter from Charles Roach Smith, Esq., F.S.A., to Sir Henry Ellis, K.H., F.R.S., Secretary
Authors: Smith Charles Roach 
Published: June 2012

I Have much pleasure in bringing before the notice of the Society some ancient remains, very recently discovered at Stowting, in the county of Kent.If I am not mistaken, they will be admitted to possess considerable interest, by reason of the circumstances under which they were brought to light, having been, without loss of time, noted and authenticated; the objects themselves preserved and delineated; and because they afford evidence to warrant classification and appropriation, and confirm the correct arrangement of similar remains found frequently in the same county, as well as in other parts of England.
X.—Account of Teutonic Remains, apparently Saxon, found near Dieppe. In a Letter from William Michael Wylie, Esq. F.S.A. to John Yonge Akerman, Esq. Secretary
Authors: Wylie William Michael 
Published: June 2012

I am aware of the interest taken by many of our Fellows in all that tends to elucidate Teutonic antiquities, and therefore venture to request you will submit to their consideration these notes on an obscure and difficult branch of the subject.When in France, during the last summer, I endeavoured to profit by so favourable an opportunity for observing the sepulchral remains of the Frankish race, and comparing them with those of the Saxon. It had not occurred to me that there also I might meet with traces of the Saxons, “that celebrated name in which,” as Gibbon well writes, “we have a dear and domestic interest.” From long habit, Saxon antiquities are apt to appear the exclusive attribute of our own land; yet we possess abundant evidence of the presence of the Saxons in Gaul.
XVI.—Papers relating to the Proposed Marriage of Queen Elizabeth with the Brother of the Emperor, in 1567. Communicated by Sir Henry Ellis, K.H., F.R.S., in a Letter to J. Y. Akerman, Esq., Secretary
Authors: Ellis Henry 
Published: June 2012

I beg to lay before our Society transcripts of three Documents illustrative of the Earl of Sussex's negotiation, in 1567, for the marriage of Queen Elizabeth with the Archduke Charles.The first is the Diary of the Journey, kept by Sir Gilbert Dethick, who, as Garter King of Arms, attended the cortege, to invest the Emperor with the Order of St. George. It is mutilated in a few passages, being one of the numerous fragments of the Cottonian Library, which, with many fine and important volumes, were destroyed, or spoiled for all useful purposes, in the well-known fire of 1731.The second is a Letter from the Earl of Sussex to the Queen herself (preserved in the Cottonian MS. Galba, B. xi . fol. 300), dated 27th August, 1567, detailing the substance of his several audiences of the Emperor up to the Emperor's acceptance of the Order of the Garter. It begins rather abruptly. It was probably preceded by some previous Letter to the Queen, descriptive of the journey: and not improbably by another Letter, or perhaps Letters, stating the further discussions with the Emperor and the Archduke, and the causes of failure of the Negociation.The whole affording an ample view of the Negociation, and of the fruitless expenditure which it entailed.
XII. Description of some Gold Ornaments recently found in Ireland, in a Letter from Lord Albert Conyngham, F.S.A., to Sir Henry Ellis, K.H., F.R.S., Secretary
Authors: Conyngham Albert 
Published: June 2012

The golden ornaments which you will receive to-morrow evening to exhibit to the Society of Antiquaries, should you consider them sufficiently interesting, I have numbered 1,2, 3, 4, 5, 6. (Plate XII.)The first five were accidentally found by a labouring man about a fortnight since, within a few yards of the entrance to the caves at New Grange. They were at the depth of two feet from the surface of the ground, and without any covering or protection from the earth about them. Another labouring man, hearing of this discovery, carefully searched the spot whence they were taken, and found a denarius of Geta, and two other coins of small brass, but quite defaced ; they are all in my possession.
X. Observations on the First Common Seal used by the Burgesses of Bristol. By the Rev. James Dallaway, F.S.A. In a Letter to Henry Ellis, Esq. F.R.S. Secretary
Authors: Dallaway James 
Published: June 2012

I observe, that several communications respecting municipal Seals have been formerly made to the Society, and am consequently induced to address you upon the subject of one, which presents a fair claim to their notice.The first municipal Seal now extant, which was used by the commonalty of the burgh of Bristol, is no less curious for the excellence of the engraving, as a work of art at the time of its execution, than the historical design, concerning which, I request to submit some Observations which have occurred upon a careful examination of it.

Regina.“Liber Domicilii supremi domini nostri Regis ac Mariæ Reginæ, inchoan. die subscript, de anno Domini Millesimo quingentesimo trigisimo octavo: David Wod de Crage Compotorum rotulatore.”On a blank leaf at the beginning are two Shields crowned, supported by the Thistle, one bearing the coat of Scotland, the other the coat of Scotland impaling the arms of the Queen.
Blue–yellow colour vision impairment and cognitive deficits in occasional and dependent stimulant users
Authors: Hulka Lea M. , Wagner Michael , Preller Katrin H. , Jenni Daniela , Quednow Boris B. 
Published: June 2012

Abstract
Specific blue–yellow colour vision impairment has been reported in dependent cocaine users and it was postulated that drug-induced changes in retinal dopamine neurotransmission are responsible. However, it is unclear whether these changes are confined to chronic cocaine users, whether they are specific for dopaminergic stimulants such as cocaine and amphetamine and whether they are related to cognitive functions such as working memory, encoding and consolidation. In 47 occasional and 29 dependent cocaine users, 23 MDMA (commonly known as ‘ecstasy’) users and 47 stimulant-naive controls, colour vision discrimination was measured with the Lanthony Desaturated Panel D-15 Test and memory performance with the Auditory Verbal Learning Test. Both occasional and dependent cocaine users showed higher colour confusion indices than controls. Users of the serotonergic stimulant MDMA (26%), occasional (30%) and dependent cocaine users (34%) exhibited more frequent blue–yellow colour vision disorders compared to controls (9%). Inferior performance of MDMA users was caused by a subgroup with high amphetamine co-use (55%), while MDMA use alone was not associated with decreased blue–yellow discrimination (0%). Cognitive performance was worse in cocaine users with colour vision disorder compared to users and controls with intact colour vision and both colour vision impairment and cognitive deficits were related to cocaine use. Occasional cocaine and amphetamine use might induce blue–yellow colour vision impairment, whereas the serotonergic stimulant MDMA does not impair colour vision. The association between colour vision impairment and cognitive deficits in cocaine users may reflect that retinal and cerebral dopamine alterations are linked to a certain degree.
Uniform derandomization from pathetic lower bounds
Authors: Allender Eric , Arvind V. , Santhanam Rahul , Wang Fengming 
Published: June 2012

The notion of probabilistic computation dates back at least to Turing, who also wrestled with the practical problems of how to implement probabilistic algorithms on machines with, at best, very limited access to randomness. A more recent line of research, known as derandomization, studies the extent to which randomness is superfluous. A recurring theme in the literature on derandomization is that probabilistic algorithms can be simulated quickly by
deterministic
algorithms, if one can obtain
impressive
(i.e. superpolynomial, or even nearly exponential) circuit size lower bounds for certain problems. In contrast to what is needed for derandomization, existing lower bounds seem rather pathetic. Here, we present two instances where ‘pathetic’ lower bounds of the form
n

1+
ϵ

would suffice to derandomize interesting classes of probabilistic algorithms. We show the following:

— If the word problem over
S
5
requires constant-depth threshold circuits of size
n

1+
ϵ

for some
ϵ
>0, then any language accepted by uniform polynomial size probabilistic threshold circuits can be solved in subexponential time (and, more strongly, can be accepted by a uniform family of deterministic constant-depth threshold circuits of subexponential size).

— If there are no constant-depth arithmetic circuits of size
n

1+
ϵ

for the problem of multiplying a sequence of
n
3×3 matrices, then, for every constant
d
, black-box identity testing for depth-
d
arithmetic circuits with bounded individual degree can be performed in subexponential time (and even by a uniform family of deterministic constant-depth AC
0
circuits of subexponential size).

AbstractBackgroundTo investigate the inter‐ and intra‐rater reliability of the Korean version of the Manual Ability Classification System (MACS) for children with cerebral palsy.MethodsAfter a two‐step forward and one‐step backward translation, the inter‐rater reliability of the Korean version of the MACS was assessed separately by parents, occupational therapists and physicians. A second assessment for intra‐rater reliability was performed 4 weeks later.ResultsSixty‐nine children were enrolled. The intra‐class correlation coefficients were 0.956 between occupational therapists and physicians, 0.927 between parents and physicians, and 0.960 between parents and occupational therapists. Intra‐rater reliability ranged from 0.965 to 0.987.ConclusionsThe Korean version of the MACS is reliable and valid and is suitable for assessing manual ability in Korean children with cerebral palsy.
Metabolic origin of δ15N values in nitrogenous compounds from Brassica napus L. leaves

ABSTRACTNitrogen isotope composition (δ15N) in plant organic matter is currently used as a natural tracer of nitrogen acquisition efficiency. However, the δ15N value of whole leaf material does not properly reflect the way in which N is assimilated because isotope fractionations along metabolic reactions may cause substantial differences among leaf compounds. In other words, any change in metabolic composition or allocation pattern may cause undesirable variability in leaf δ15N. Here, we investigated the δ15N in different leaf fractions and individual metabolites from rapeseed (Brassica napus) leaves. We show that there were substantial differences in δ15N between nitrogenous compounds (up to 30‰) and the content in (15N enriched) nitrate had a clear influence on leaf δ15N. Using a simple steady‐state model of day metabolism, we suggest that the δ15N value in major amino acids was mostly explained by isotope fractionation associated with isotope effects on enzyme‐catalysed reactions in primary nitrogen metabolism. δ15N values were further influenced by light versus dark conditions and the probable occurrence of alternative biosynthetic pathways. We conclude that both biochemical pathways (that fractionate between isotopes) and nitrogen sources (used for amino acid production) should be considered when interpreting the δ15N value of leaf nitrogenous compounds.

Post‐transplantation lymphoproliferative disorder in pediatric kidney‐transplant recipients – A national study.Abstract:  PTLD is the most common malignancy in pediatric kidney‐transplant recipients. We examined the prevalence, clinical features, and outcome of PTLD in Israel. Twelve (4.4%) of 272 pediatric (<19 yr) kidney‐transplant recipients retrieved from a search of the NIKTR for 1991–2008 had acquired PTLD at a median of 3.2 yr post‐transplantation. PTLD‐affected patients were younger at transplantation (4.2 vs. 12.5 yr, p = 0.02), had a higher rate of OKT3 therapy for acute rejection (25% vs. 4%, p = 0.015), and 5/12 were EBV‐seropositive at transplantation. Graft dysfunction was the presenting sign in six (50%). PTLD was predominantly abdominal (83%) and B‐cell type (67%); T‐cell PTLD occurred exclusively in EBV‐seropositive patients. Treatment consisted of immunosuppression cessation (6/12, 50%), antiviral agents (7/12, 58%), anti‐CD20 monoclonal antibodies (4/12, 33%), and chemotherapy (6/12, 50%). Survival was 100% in the EBV‐naïve patients and 40% in the EBV‐seropositive patients. Graft loss occurred in three of eight survivors (37.5%). PTLD‐associated mortality risk was older age: 11.2 vs. 3.4 yr, longer dialysis: 15 vs. 6.5 months, T‐cell type disease (75%), later PTLD onset: 6.35 vs. 1.9 yr post‐transplantation and era of transplantation (43% mortality before vs. 20% after 2001). Pretransplantation EBV‐seronegative status might confer a survival benefit with early detected PTLD. EBV‐seropositive patients are at risk for aggressive late‐onset lethal PTLD.
Looking for a similar partner: host plants shape mating preferences of herbivorous insects by altering their contact pheromones
Authors: Geiselhardt Sven , Otte Tobias , Hilker Monika 
Published: June 2012

AbstractThe role of phenotypical plasticity in ecological speciation and the evolution of sexual isolation remains largely unknown. We investigated whether or not divergent host plant use in an herbivorous insect causes assortative mating by phenotypically altering traits involved in mate recognition. We found that males of the mustard leaf beetle Phaedon cochleariae preferred to mate with females that were reared on the same plant species to females provided with a different plant species, based on divergent cuticular hydrocarbon profiles that serve as contact pheromones. The cuticular hydrocarbon phenotypes of the beetles were host plant specific and changed within 2 weeks after a shift to a novel host plant species. We suggest that plant‐induced phenotypic divergence in mate recognition cues may act as an early barrier to gene flow between herbivorous insect populations on alternative host species, preceding genetic divergence and thus, promoting ecological speciation.

AbstractAim  Biennial screening for colorectal cancer using faecal occult blood testing has been shown to reduce the relative risk of mortality from colorectal cancer. The Norwich screening centre commenced screening in July 2006 and so far has diagnosed over 350 patients with colorectal cancer. We compared the stage at diagnosis and cancer‐specific mortality and survival in patients diagnosed through screening with a cohort of symptomatic patients with colorectal cancer within the same age range.Method  A comparative analysis was undertaken of all screen‐detected colorectal cancer patients diagnosed between July 2006 and December 2010, with an age‐matched group of patients diagnosed in the Norfolk and Norwich Hospital through the 2‐week suspected colorectal cancer guidelines.Results  Three hundred and fifty‐six cases of colorectal cancer were diagnosed through the screening programme, in patients with an age range of 60–79 years. In the same time period, 292 patients in the same age range were diagnosed with colorectal cancer through the 2‐week suspected colorectal cancer pathway. Sixteen patients in the screening group had evidence of metastatic disease at presentation compared with 62 in the symptomatic group (χ2, P < 0.001). The proportion of T1/T2 and Dukes A cancers was significantly greater in the screening group (χ2, P < 0.001). There were 21 colorectal cancer‐related deaths in the screening group compared with 66 in the symptomatic group. Survival analysis curves showed significantly better survival in the screening group (log‐rank analysis P < 0.001).Conclusion  Screening for colorectal cancer identifies cancers at a significantly earlier stage than in symptomatic patients, with subsequent improvement in cancer‐specific survival.

AbstractAim  A case‐controlled study was performed to investigate the association of colonic angiectasia with other conditions and to identify risk factors for bleeding.Method  Information was collected from all patients who underwent colonoscopy at our hospital between January 2008 and December 2010. Data on 90 individuals with angiectasia [58 men; median age 69 (26–92) years] were compared with those of 180 individuals without angiectasia, matched for gender and age.Results  Multivariate analysis showed that occult gastrointestinal bleeding [odds ratio (OR) 2.523; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.238–5.142], liver cirrhosis (OR 13.195; 95% CI 3.502–49.711), chronic renal failure (OR 6.796; 95% CI 1.598–28.904) and valvular heart disease (OR 6.425; 95% CI 1.028–40.165) were identified as significant predictors of the presence of colonic angiectasia. Eight patients were diagnosed with bleeding from angiectasia. Cardiovascular disease (OR 22.047; 95% CI 1.063–457.345) and multiple angiectasias (P‐value 0.0019) were identified as significant risk factors for active bleeding. Medication and a large size were not associated with an increased risk of bleeding.Conclusion  The presence of colonic angiectasia was associated with valvular heart disease, liver cirrhosis and chronic renal failure. Valvular heart disease and multiple lesions increased the risk of bleeding.
