Motivating non-canonicality in Construction Grammar: The case of locative inversion
Authors: Webelhuth Gert 
Published: May 2011

Abstract
This article discusses the English construction variously known as Locative Inversion or Stylistic Inversion. It shows that the construction displays a unique ensemble of grammatical and usage properties that can be stated but not motivated through purely grammatical means. In search of an explanatory approach, an analysis is presented that draws on concepts of Artificial Intelligence, in particular plans viewed as complex mental attitudes. It is claimed that utterances of Locative Inversion are associated with a particular communicative plan on the speaker's part that motivates the grammatical and usage properties of the construction where grammar alone cannot. The final section of the article presents corpus examples showing that Locative Inversion is indeed used in the contexts predicted by the plan associated with the construction. This result is both theoretically and methodologically significant, insofar as it constitutes a case where the grammatical properties of a syntactic construction are better explained through its typical conditions of use than through grammatical means proper.
Antioxidative and hypolipidemic efficacy of alcoholic seed extract of Swietenia macrophylla in streptozotocin diabetic rats

Abstract
The present study was designed to examine the antioxidative potential and antihyperlipidemic activity of Swietenia macrophylla in streptozotocin diabetic rats. The experimental groups were rendered diabetic by intraperitoneal injection of a single dose of streptozotocin (STZ; 40 mg/kg body weight, BW). Rats with glucose levels >200 mg/dL were considered diabetic and were divided into five groups. Three groups of diabetic animals were orally administered daily with seed extract (SME) at a dosage of 50, 100 and 200 mg/kg BW. One group of STZ rats was treated as diabetic control and another group orally administered 600 μg/kg BW glibenclamide daily. Repeated daily oral administration of S. macrophylla significantly reduced blood glucose levels after 45 days of treatment. The lipid peroxidation products such as thiobarbituric acid reactive substances and lipid hydroperoxides of SME treated rats decreased in the plasma, liver and kidney. Glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase and catalase activity were significantly increased in SME treated rats. Antioxidants such as reduced glutathione level in the plasma, liver and kidney and vitamins C and E levels in the plasma increased in SME treated rats. Total cholesterol, triglycerides, phospholipids and free fatty acids and lipoproteins levels increased. Altered lipid profile of treated rats lead to normality with treatment of S. macrophylla. Thus, our results indicate that the administration of 100 mg/kg BW SME restores near normal blood glucose, redox status and lipid profile in STZ-diabetic rats.
Physician Communication Regarding Smoking and Adolescent Tobacco Use
Authors: Hum Ashley M. , Robinson Leslie A. , Jackson Ashley A. , Ali Khatidja S. 
Published: May 2011

BACKGROUND:
Physician advice increases quit rates 1% to 3% above unassisted quit rates among adults, an increase sufficient to be ranked as a high-priority, evidence-based preventive service. However, there is little research on the potential impact of physician advice on adolescent smoking.

OBJECTIVE:
The purpose of this study was to examine the association between recalled physician communication and adolescents' attitudes toward smoking, knowledge about smoking, intentions to smoke, tobacco use, and quitting behaviors.

METHODS:
This study was a retrospective observational study of 5154 students (82.9% black, 17.1% white) from an urban, mid-South school system. Outcome variables included adolescents' self-rated attitudes toward smoking, knowledge about smoking, intentions to smoke, tobacco use, and quitting behaviors.

RESULTS:
Physician advice and the combination of screening and advice were associated with healthier attitudes about smoking. Physician screening and advice were also associated with a more accurate knowledge regarding tobacco-related damage. Among current smokers, recalled physician advice was also associated with reduced intentions to smoke in 5 years. Importantly, advised teens were more likely to plan to quit smoking in 6 months. Furthermore, teens who were screened by their physician reported significantly more quit attempts than those who were neither screened nor advised (P = .007).

CONCLUSIONS:
Physician's tobacco-related interactions with adolescents seemed to positively impact their attitudes, knowledge, intentions to smoke, and quitting behaviors. Brief physician interventions have the potential to be a key intervention on a public health level through the prevention, cessation, and reduction of smoking and smoking-related disease.

OBJECTIVE:We examined trends in autism spectrum disorder diagnoses by age 36 months (early diagnoses) and identified characteristics associated with early diagnoses.METHODS:Massachusetts birth certificate and early-intervention program data were linked to identify infants born between 2001 and 2005 who were enrolled in early intervention and receiving autism-related services before age 36 months (through December 31, 2008). Trends in early autism spectrum disorders were examined using Cochran-Armitage trend tests. χ2 Statistics were used to compare distributions of selected characteristics for children with and without autism spectrum disorders. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify independent predictors of early diagnoses.RESULTS:A total of 3013 children (77.5 per 10 000 study population births) were enrolled in early intervention for autism spectrum disorder by age 36 months. Autism spectrum disorder incidence increased from 56 per 10 000 infants among the 2001 birth cohort to 93 per 10 000 infants in 2005. Infants of mothers younger than 24 years of age, whose primary language was not English or who were foreign-born had lower odds of an early autism spectrum disorder diagnosis. Maternal age older than 30 years was associated with increased odds of an early autism spectrum disorder diagnosis. Odds of early autism spectrum disorders were 4.5 (95% confidence interval: 4.1–5.0) times higher for boys than girls.CONCLUSIONS:Early autism spectrum disorder diagnoses are increasing in Massachusetts, reflecting the national trend observed among older children. Linkage of early-intervention program data with population-based vital statistics is valuable for monitoring autism spectrum disorder trends and planning developmental and educational service needs.
Carbonate Wells Stimulations by Acidizing Through Inflow Control Devices for Sredne-Sercheyusskoe Anticline of Yuzhno-Shapkinskoe Oilfield

Abstract
In 2009, Lukoil installed inflow control devices (ICDs) in three horizontal wells in the Sredne-Sercheyusskoe anticline of Yuzhno-Shapkinskoe oilfield. The successful installation of the lower completion will describe the planning and design through detailed near wellbore modeling pre and post drilling. The latter used LWD measurements to update the model and redesign the completion to address the actual wellbore heterogeneity to optimize future production in terms of production acceleration and mitigation of more mobile fluids through inflow balancing. In addition, to ensure production contribution from heel to toe through the use of an optimized ICD completion, an acid treatment was also executed in two wells which further improved productivity of the well by successfully removing formation damage and possible debris barrier plugging. The ICD completion offered a means to balance the outflow of acid distribution across heterogeneous wellbores. The predesign acid job and post analysis will be presented and discussed.

Published: May 2011

Abstract
The dynamics of repulsive bosons condensed in an optical lattice is effectively described by the Bose-Hubbard model. The classical limit of this model, reproduces the dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates, in a periodic potential, and in the superfluid regime. Such dynamics is governed by a discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Several papers, addressing the study of the discrete nonlinear Schrödinger dynamics, have predicted the spontaneous generation of (classical) breathers in coupled condensates. In the present contribute, we shall focus on localized solutions (quantum breathers) of the full Bose-Hubbard model. We will show that solutions exponentially localized in space and periodic in time exist also in absence of randomness. Thus, this kind of states, reproduce a novel quantum localization phenomenon due to the interplay between bounded energy spectrum and non-linearity.
Indapamide-induced hyponatremia or the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion: a case report
Authors: Romaszko Jerzy , Targonski Ryszard , Cichowski Leszek , Sadowski Janusz 
Published: May 2011

Abstract
We report a case of an apparently well-documented indapamide-induced hyponatremia. The initial diagnosis was made on the basis of dechallenge and rechallenge performed on two occasions. Further course of the disease, which proved inconsistent with our expectations, prompted us to look for another aetiology leading to the final diagnosis of the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH) complicated by indapamide treatment.

Published: May 2011

Abstract
We report on two cases of spontaneous pneumomediastinum and pneumopericardium, in one case associated with pneumorrhachis, occurring in two children suffering from the novel influenza H1N1 virus infection. At the admission both children presented with fever, violent dry cough, dyspnea and tachypnea. Radiological studies showed sizeable pneumomediastinum and pneumopericardium in both patients. One of the patients also a pneumorrachis. Children were initially treated by intravenous broad-spectrum antibiotics, antipyretics and a cough sedative. Oral Oseltamivir (60 mg twice daily for 5 days) was administered after the diagnosis of influenza A (H1N1) virus infection. Patients’ clinical condition quickly improved and children were discharged with a partial resolution of their radiological findings. Although these conditions are usually self-limiting and without respiratory or systemic consequences, their prompt recognition in children with H1N1 influenza virus infection is essential to establish fast and adequate therapy mainly related to the control of cough and the commencement of antiviral treatment.

Abstract
Genetic background and T-cell expansion have been confirmed as the most important factors leading to psoriasis susceptibility in the Caucasian population. This study was performed to identify the T-cell receptor Vβ repertoire and HLA-Cw genotype in twenty Mexicans of two different ethnicities with severe chronic plaque-type psoriasis. HLA-Cw typing was performed to detect the allele pattern by SSP-PCR. In parallel, RT-PCR and Western blot were used for the identification of the TCR Vβ expression in peripheral blood cells. We identified a variety of HLA-Cw alleles in this group of patients distinct from the widely known HLA-Cw 0602 Caucasian allele. Moreover, TCR Vβ-2 and Vβ-7 clone-type frequencies were different and statistically significant (P = 0.0280). We speculate that because of diverse genetic backgrounds, the susceptibility to disease and activation of T-cells for a proper immune response could be specific; therefore, the findings might contribute to the elucidation of the pathogenesis in psoriatic Mexican patients.

Abstract
Enterococci are uncommon etiologic agents of central nervous system infections. We describe a case of nosocomial encephalitis and concurrent cerebellitis associated with Enterococcus faecium in a man, with extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type, who underwent high-dose chemotherapy and autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation. Brain magnetic resonance images showed lesions in the bihemispheral cerebellar cortex with swelling and several small lesions in both cerebral hemispheres. The blood and cerebrospinal fluid cultures were positive for vancomycin-resistant E. faecium. Vancomycin-resistant E. faecium can cause encephalitis and concurrent cerebellitis in an immunocompromised patient who underwent autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation.

RNA Interference and Its Potential Applications to Chronic HBV Treatment: Results of a Phase I Safety and Tolerability Study
Authors: Gish Robert G , Satishchandran C , Young Michael , Pachuk Catherine 
Published: May 2011

Background RNA interference (RNAi) provides an attractive tool to modulate biological systems, and ultimately, to treat human diseases. We describe early results from a Phase Ib, first-in-human safety and tolerability study of an RNAi-based therapy, NUC B1000, among patients with mild to moderate chronic HBV. Methods Three subjects received a single 5 mg DNA dose of NUC B1000 as part of a planned dose escalation study. Results All participants reported pharyngitis, chills, myalgia and fever approximately 4–7 h after dosing. All subjects were asymptomatic after a single antipyretic dose with no symptom recurrences. Measurements of interferon (IFN)-α and -γ, interleukin (IL)-10, 12 18, 8 and 6, and tumour necrosis factor-α performed before and after dosing revealed cytokine increases before study drug administration. After drug administration, IFN-γ and IL-10 increased in two patients; IL-8 increased in one. Most increases returned to pretreatment levels within 1 week. Two patients were subsequently successfully treated with entecavir indicating that NUC B1000 does not compromise subsequent antiviral therapy. Conclusions Thus far, NUC B1000 appears safe and well-tolerated; safety and efficacy studies across a larger, more diverse patient spectrum using increasing doses are needed to determine its appropriate role in the antiviral armamentarium.
Entre logique d'opérateur et système national d'innovation : les programmes de recherche du Centre National d'Étude des Télécommunications de 1974 a la fin des années 1980
Authors: Griset Pascal 
Published: May 2011

Résumé Le Centre National d’Étude des Télécommunications (CNET), créé en 1944, a joué un rôle central pour le développement des télécommunications françaises dans la seconde moitié du XX e siècle. Cet article aborde la période de 1974 à la fin des années 1980. Les missions du CNET, son rôle au sein de la Direction Générale des Télécommunications évoluent sensiblement. Les responsabilités dans la politique industrielle du pays et l’articulation avec le développement de nouveaux réseaux sont particulièrement concernées par ces changements. Ceux-ci dépendent d’un contexte global, lié aux mutations économiques et techniques qui marquent le domaine des télécommunications au cours de cette période. Ils dépendent également de choix politiques liés aux changements intervenant à la tête de l’Etat. Pourtant, au-delà de ces fluctuations, cet article met en lumière une stratégie de recherche s’inscrivant dans la durée. Elle se structure informellement autour de trois grands points d’équilibre : l’évolution des réseaux, l’émergence de nouvelles manières de communiquer et la convergence avec les domaines des composants et de la programmation. L’article conclut donc à la capacité du CNET à faire valoir ses choix scientifiques, tout en soulignant que les projets ayant permis de dégager les résultats les plus positifs furent ceux se situant au plus près du cœur de métier de l’opérateur.

L'ombre de la loi
Authors: Perreau Bruno 
Published: May 2011

Résumé Expérience de la disparition, la communauté est, selon Maurice Blanchot, « inavouable » : elle se dérobe à la possibilité même d’être définie. En prenant appui sur le roman de Marguerite Duras, La maladie de la mort , il considère que le couple formé par la narratrice et son amant homosexuel est emblématique de cette impossibilité. Cet exemple révèle qu’il n’est de communauté sans imaginaire et que la loi et son sujet sont coextensifs, non pas de ou dans la communauté, mais comme communauté.
Le populisme comme modulation du commun
Authors: Oudenampsen Merijn 
Published: May 2011

Résumé Le mot de « populisme » n’est généralement employé que comme une insulte, qui révèle plutôt le manque d’intelligence de ceux qui l’emploient que de ceux qui en sont accusés. En réalité, le populisme joue un rôle central dans la dynamique démocratique. Comme le suggèrent les analyses d’Ernesto Laclau, il consiste à donner forme au « peuple » et à la volonté du peuple, à partir de la transformation de multiples écarts démocratiques singuliers, séparés entre eux, en un seul écart collectif, un point de cristallisation du mécontentement politique. Il est donc un opérateur de modulation du commun.
Avatar : une caricature de multitude
Authors: Žižon Slavoj 
Published: May 2011

Résumé Le scénario du film Avatar peut se présenter comme une caricature de ce qu’on reproche aux théoriciens des multitudes : la foi en un spontanéisme naïf selon lequel l’agencement des singularités se ferait de façon immanente, sans besoin d’aucun travail d’organisation ou de médiation. Si le film représente bien un renversement idéologique d’une conception simpliste de l’agir politique des multitudes, son succès commercial suggère que de nouveaux modes de médiation sont à l’œuvre et demandent à être analysés de plus près.
3D magnetic interpretation of the Regis kimberlite pipe, Minas Gerais, Brazil
Authors: Menezes Paulo T.L. , La Terra Emanuele F. 
Published: May 2011

ABSTRACTIn the present work, high‐resolution ground magnetic data are used to unveil the structure of the Regis kimberlite pipe, which is located in a well‐known diamondiferous province in the central portion of Brazil. The main tectonic feature of the area is a NW‐SE major crustal fracture zone, extending for more than 3000 km within Brazil, along which Regis and several other kimberlite pipes have intruded. The area is located at low magnetic latitude (inclination approximately 27o south) and the ground magnetic anomaly associated with the Regis pipe appears as an isolated asymmetric dipole‐like source caused by magnetization primarily in the direction of the Earth’s magnetic field. We inverted this high‐resolution magnetic data set in order to recover the 3D effective susceptibility model of the studied pipe. We obtained an asymmetric conical‐shaped strongly magnetized body (35 × 10‐3 SI units) extending from 50–720 m depth. Prior to the inversion, the data were upward continued to 30 m above the surface to attenuate high‐frequency noise and mitigate inversion artefacts. Our results were used to better define the subsequent drilling positions to thoroughly evaluate the economic potential of the Regis pipe. One available borehole drilled approximately in the centre of the structure corroborates our interpretation.
