Authors: Yang Qing , Gu Shengbo , Peng Yongzhen , Wang Shuying , Liu Xiuhong 
Published: August 2010

AbstractThe sequencing batch reactor (SBR) process has shown great success in the treatment of industrial wastewater from intermittent discharge factories and for the treatment of domestic wastewater from medium or small towns. As automation technology has developed, many studies have been conducted to determine the optimal conditions for the SBR process. This review outlines the progress and application of control strategies that have been developed for the SBR process and provides a summary and comparison of the advantages and disadvantages of various control strategies, especially fixed‐time control strategies and various real‐time control strategies. Moreover, an analysis and discussion of novel optimal control methods for biologic nutrient removal are provided. Although previous studies in this field have greatly enriched our understanding of SBR systems, it is clear that many unsolved problems remain. Therefore, a summary of unanswered questions regarding control strategies for the SBR process is provided and future research directions are suggested.
Prognostic value of lymph node evaluation in small bowel adenocarcinoma
Authors: Overman Michael J. , Hu Chung‐Yuan , Wolff Robert A. , Chang George J. 
Published: August 2010

AbstractBACKGROUND:The presence of distant metastases and the completeness of resection are important prognostic factors in patients with small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA); however, the influence of lymph node metastasis on patient outcome has not been well characterized. The objective of the current study was to evaluate the impact of the number of positive and negative lymph nodes on survival after curative resection.METHODS:Patients who had SBA diagnosed between 1988 and 2005 were identified from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) registry. Cox proportional hazards regression analyses were performed after adjusting for age, sex, race, tumor stage, tumor grade, and primary site. Five‐year disease‐specific survival (DSS) was determined, all patients were categorized according to the total lymph nodes (TLNs) assessed, and patients with stage III disease also were categorized according to the number of positive lymph nodes (PLNs) and the PLN‐to‐TLN ratio (the lymph node ratio [LNR]).RESULTS:In total, 1991 patients (n = 1216 with stage I/II SBA and n = 775 with stage III SBA) were analyzed. Survival depended on the TLNs assessed. The 5‐year DSS rate for patients with stage II disease was associated with the TLNs assessed (44%, 69%, and 83% for 0 TLNs, 1‐7 TLNs, and >7 TLNs, respectively). The 5‐year DSS for patients with stage III disease was associated with the number of PLNs (58% and 37% for <3 PLNs and ≥3 PLNs, respectively). Among patients with stage III disease, the LNR was even more predictive of survival than stratification by the number of PLNs.CONCLUSIONS:Survival after surgical resection for stage I, II, and III SBA was associated with the TLNs assessed. Stratifying patients with stage III disease into those with <3 PLNs and ≥3 PLNs significantly improved prognostication. Cancer 2010. © 2010 American Cancer Society.

Published: August 2010

AbstractBACKGROUND:Febrile neutropenia (FN) is a serious and potentially life‐threatening condition that may develop in patients with cancer who receive myelosuppressive chemotherapy. The risk of mortality from FN is not well characterized in current clinical practice.METHODS:Patients with cancer who were receiving chemotherapy in clinical practice were identified from a large US healthcare claims database, and mortality was confirmed using the National Death Index. Patients with FN had their propensity scores matched within tumor types of interest (non‐Hodgkin lymphoma and breast, lung, colorectal, and ovarian cancers) to patients who did not experience FN. Study endpoints of overall mortality (anytime during follow‐up), early mortality (during the first 12 months of the first chemotherapy course), and hospitalization were examined using univariate and multivariate techniques.RESULTS:Matched FN and control groups each included 5990 patients, and the average follow‐up for both groups was 17.6 months. Crude incidence rates of early mortality were significantly higher for patients with FN compared with controls for all tumor types. Proportional hazards regression demonstrated a significant increase in the risk of overall and early mortality in patients with FN compared with controls (hazard ratio [HR], 1.15 [95% confidence interval, 1.02‐1.29] and HR, 1.35 [95% confidence interval, 1.09‐1.67], respectively).CONCLUSIONS:The adjusted risk of mortality in patients who experienced FN was at least 15% higher than in comparably matched patients without FN, supporting the inference that infectious complications because of neutropenia resulting from myelosuppressive chemotherapy are clinically important.

AbstractBACKGROUND:Samarium‐153 ethylenediamine tetramethylene phosphoric acid (153Sm‐EDTMP) is a radiopharmaceutical that has been used to treat osteosarcoma. The authors conducted a phase 2 study to test safety and response of high‐risk osteosarcoma to tandem doses of 153Sm‐EDTMP and to determine correlation between radiation delivered by low and high administered activities.METHODS:Patients with recurrent, refractory osteosarcoma detectable on standard 99mTc bone scan received a low dose of 153Sm‐EDTMP (37.0‐51.8 MBq/kg), followed upon count recovery by a second, higher dose (222 MBq/kg). Fourteen days later, patients were rescued with autologous hematopoietic stem cells. The authors assessed response to therapy, performed dosimetry to determine the relationship between administered activity and tumor absorbed dose, and investigated whether changes in 2‐(fluorine‐18) fluoro‐2‐deoxy‐d‐glucose (18F‐FDG) tumor uptake upon hematologic recovery reflected disease response.RESULTS:Nine patients were given tandem doses of 153Sm‐EDTMP; 2 received only the initial dose because of disease progression. Six patients experienced radiographic disease stabilization, but this was not considered a response, so the study was terminated early. There was a linear relationship between administered activity and tumor absorbed dose, but there was no correlation between change in 18F‐FDG positron emission tomography tumor uptake and tumor absorbed dose or time to progression. The median time to progression for the entire group was 79 days.CONCLUSIONS:Tandem doses of 153Sm‐EDTMP were safe for this cohort of heavily pretreated patients with very high‐risk disease. The strong correlation between absorbed dose and administered activity within each evaluable patient provides a methodology to individually tailor tandem doses of this agent.

Published: August 2010

AbstractRate coefficients for the gas‐phase reactions of OH radicals withn‐propyl butyrate (k1),n‐butyl propionate (k2) andn‐butyl butyrate (k3) are measured by both absolute and relative methods. The kinetics data obtained over the temperature range 273–372 K are used to derive the Arrhenius expressions (in units of cm3 molecule−1 s−1):k1=(1.92±0.50)×10−12exp[(400±80)/T],k2=(2.98±1.32)×10−12 exp[(209±139)/T] andk3=(5.35±3.34)×10−12 exp[(180±194)/T]. In addition, the rate coefficients for reactions of the three esters with Cl atoms are determined by the relative‐rate method at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. The rate coefficients measured are (in units of 10−10cm3 molecule−1 s−1) as follows:n‐propyl butyrate (1.4±0.1),n‐butyl propionate (1.6±0.1), andn‐butyl butyrate (1.7±0.1). The values obtained are presented, compared with previous determinations and discussed. Reactivity trends and atmospheric implications resulting from this work are also presented.
External Heavy‐Atom Effect on the Prompt and Delayed Fluorescence of [70]Fullerenes
Authors: Baleizão Carlos , Berberan‐Santos Mário N. 
Published: August 2010

AbstractThe influence of the external heavy‐atom effect (HAE) on the fluorescence properties of C70 and a C70 methano monoadduct is determined. For this purpose the photophysics of these [70]fullerenes is studied in polystyrene (PS) and in a related heavy‐atom polymer, poly(4‐bromostyrene) (PBS). In the absence of HAE (PS matrix) both fullerenes display a strong thermally activated delayed fluorescence (DF) that is more pronounced in the case of C70. In the presence of HAE (PBS matrix) both prompt (PF) and DF intensities decrease significantly, the same happening to the delayed fluorescence lifetimes. The relative fluorescence intensities (DF intensity/PF intensity) for each fullerene are on the other hand surprisingly similar to the respective ones in PS for the full experimental temperature range. The HAE is responsible for a significant increase of the S1→T1 and S1←T1 intersystem crossing (ISC) rates, and of the T1→S0 radiative rate. In particular, the HAE on a S1←T1 ISC rate is reported here for the first time. The overall substantial insensitivity of relative fluorescence intensities to HAE is explained by a compensation effect: As the S1→T1 and S1←T1 ISC rates on the one hand, and the T1→S0 radiative rate on the other hand work in opposition with respect to DF, a near cancellation of effects occurs.

AbstractMiddle‐age children are and will continue to be confronted with parent care decisions. It is inevitable that siblings experience varying degrees of conflict when making these decisions, as exemplified in the four case studies outlined in this article. The potential benefits and limitations of family mediation as a means of resolving such conflicts are discussed.
Online dispute resolution: Theory and practice of the fourth party
Authors: Rifkin Janet 
Published: August 2010

AbstractAs more and more social and commercial activity takes place online, it is inevitable that conflicts will arise in online spaces and that new electronic tools for dispute resolution will be necessary. Yet we actually know very little about the nature of disputing and dispute resolution in these settings. The theory and practice of mediation are grounded in an understanding and analysis of conflict and communication that assumes that people will come together in a physical space to negotiate their differences. The strategic interventions that mediators utilize in such cases emerge from their assessment of what tactics would be most effective for conflict management, facilitation, and resolution in light of the unfolding interpersonal dynamics among the parties who are literally “at the table.” This article considers what happens when mediation takes place in settings in which there is no face‐to‐face meeting, when mediation takes place not through the medium of talk but through the written word.

AbstractHat Mauerwerk eine Zukunft? Oder dienen Wände bald nur noch als Trägermaterial für Dämmschichten? Dabei ist gerade wärmedämmendes Mauerwerk aus gutem Grund im Wohnungsbau nach wie vor die Nummer Eins — und wird es nach Einschätzung der Fachleute auch bleiben. Dieser Beitrag schildert aktuelle Entwicklungen und beleuchtet Hintergründe.Construction with a future — theral insulating brick with mineral plaster. Does brickwork has a future? Couldn’t it be that walls will soon only serve as backing material for insulation layer? However, there are good reasons that heat insulating brickwork is still the number one in domestic constructions — according to experts this will remain so. The following article will characterize current developments und backgrounds.
Perfectionism and its relation to overevaluation of weight and shape and depression in an eating disorder sample
Authors: Steele Anna L. , O'Shea Anne , Murdock Amelia , Wade Tracey D. 
Published: August 2010

AbstractObjective:To examine the relative association between psychopathology (depression and overevaluation of weight and shape) and measures of perfectionism and self‐criticism in an eating disorder sample.Method:Participants (n = 39) completed measures of independent variables (perfectionism and self‐criticism) and dependent variables (depression and overevaluation of weight and shape).Results:Simultaneous multiple regression analyses suggest that clinical perfectionism has a unique association with depression. Self‐criticism and clinical perfectionism had a stronger association with overevaluation of weight and shape than other measures of perfectionism.Discussion:Clinical perfectionism and self‐criticism may be of more relevance than existing measures of multidimensional perfectionism in terms of explaining maintenance of depression and overevaluation of weight and shape. © 2010 by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Development of emotion acceptance behavior therapy for anorexia nervosa: A case series
Authors: Wildes Jennifer E. , Marcus Marsha D. 
Published: August 2010

AbstractThis case series describes the development of a novel psychotherapeutic intervention for older adolescents and adults with anorexia nervosa (AN). Emotion acceptance behavior therapy (EABT) is based on a model that emphasizes the role of anorexic symptoms in facilitating avoidance of emotions. EABT combines standard behavioral interventions that are central to the clinical management of AN with psychotherapeutic techniques designed to increase emotion awareness, decrease emotion avoidance, and encourage resumption of valued activities and relationships outside the eating disorder. Five patients with AN aged 17–43 years were offered a 24‐session manualized version of EABT. Four patients completed at least 90% of the therapy sessions, and three showed modest weight gains without return to intensive treatment. Improvements in depressive and anxiety symptoms, emotion avoidance, and quality of life also were observed. These results offer preliminary support for the potential utility of EABT in the treatment of older adolescents and adults with AN. © 2010 by Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Eat Disord 2011
Self‐efficacy as a robust predictor of outcome in guided self‐help treatment for broadly defined bulimia nervosa
Authors: Steele Anna L. , Bergin Jacqueline , Wade Tracey D. 
Published: August 2010

AbstractObjective:To examine predictors of guided self‐help (GSH) treatment outcome in bulimia nervosa (BN).Method:Data were included from 87 individuals who participated in one of two randomized controlled trials evaluating GSH interventions for BN. Participants received eight sessions of GSH over a 6‐ to 8‐week period and were assessed at baseline, pretreatment, posttreatment, and 6‐month follow‐up.Results:Motivation (confidence in ability to change) proved to be the most robust predictor of outcome, across three of the four outcome measures. Baseline measures of concern over mistakes perfectionism also uniquely predicted outcome at posttreatment. Posttreatment measures of stress, eating disorder‐related automatic thoughts, and frequency of binge episodes predicted outcome at 6‐month follow‐up.Discussion:This study suggests that tackling motivation early in therapy, with a particular focus on confidence in succeeding in change, could be of benefit to outcome in BN treatment. © 2010 by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Associations between specific components of compulsive exercise and eating‐disordered cognitions and behaviors among young women
Authors: Taranis Lorin , Meyer Caroline 
Published: August 2010

AbstractObjective:To explore the associations between specific elements of compulsive exercise and both eating‐disordered cognitions and eating‐disordered behaviors in a nonclinical sample of young women.Method:A sample of young women (n = 498) completed self‐report measures of eating pathology (The Eating Disorders Examination Questionnaire) and a relatively new measure of Compulsive Exercise Test.Results:Specific elements of compulsive exercise were associated with elevated levels of eating‐disordered cognitions and increased frequency of eating‐disordered behaviors.Discussion:These results support a multifunctional conceptualization of compulsive exercise, suggesting that some of the functionality of compulsive exercise may be akin to other forms of purging, and further supporting the notion of a possible functional equivalence between compulsive exercise and specific eating‐disordered behaviors in terms of affect regulation. © 2010 by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Published: August 2010

AbstractAn organocatalytic enantioselective Michael addition of 2‐hydroxy‐1,4‐naphthoquinone to β,γ‐unsaturated α‐oxo esters has been developed. The process was promoted by bifunctional chiral amine derived squaramides according to a hydrogen‐bonding mediated activation mechanism and afforded the chiral adducts in high yields (up to 88 %) and excellent enantioselectivity (up to 98 % ee) under mild conditions. This organocatalytic asymmetric Michael addition provides an efficient route toward the synthesis of optically active functionalized naphthoquinones.
