description: One new cyclic tetrapeptide, cyclo(l-Tyr-l-Pro-l-Phe-trans-4-hydroxy-l-Pro) (1), together with two known cyclodipeptides, cyclo(l-Phe-trans-4-hydroxy-l-Pro) (2) and cyclo(l-Val-l-Tyr) (3), were isolated from the fermentation broth of Streptomyces sp. YIM67005 associated with Inula cappa DC. The planar structure of compound 1 was determined on the basis of spectroscopic techniques, while the absolute configurations of the amino acid residues were determined by the application of the advanced Marfey method. The cytotoxicity and antimicrobial activity of compound 1 were investigated.
“Este é o meu nome para sempre”: revelação do nome Yahvé (Ex 3,13-15)

description: O Deus invocado com o nome próprio Yahvé é o mesmo Ser pessoal que os patriarcas invocaram como “Deus do pai”. Mas o nome em si só terá sido atribuído ao Deus de Israel na passagem dos hebreus pela experiência humana e religiosa do êxodo,liderados por Moisés. É à memória do êxodo que está inextricavelmente associado o nome do Deus da fé yahvista. E só séculos depois desse acontecimento histórico fundador é que a fé do povo bíblico deu uma explicação teológica do sagrado tetragrama, situando-a no contexto da teofania que desencadeou o êxodo e fazendo hermenêutica dele. Fê-lo por meio da assonância mais próxima, com uma forma verbal de hayah. Entendia assim o nome dado a Deus em termos de “Ser, Existir”, como «o verdadeiramente Existente» para o povo, tornando-o livre da escravidão para se religar a Ele por meio de uma aliança de amizade.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: Objectives: The diagnosis of malignant pleural effusion (MPE) remains a clinical challenge. As a negative regulator of T-cell activation, cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4) has been associated with many malignant diseases. However, there is limited data about the relationship between CTLA-4 and MPE. The present study aims to investigate whether CTLA-4 levels may correlate with presence of MPE and to assess its potential diagnostic accuracy relative to that of the established markers carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and cytokeratin 19 fragment (CYFRA21–1). Methods: Pleural effusion samples were collected from 36 patients with MPE and 48 patients with benign pleural effusion (BPE). Pleural levels of CTLA-4 were measured by ELISA; levels of CEA and CYFRA 21-1, by electrochemiluminescence immunoassay. Receiver operating characteristic curves were calculated to evaluate the ability of CTLA-4, CEA and CYFRA 21-1 to differentiate MPE from BPE. Results: Pleural levels of CTLA-4 were significantly higher in MPE than in BPE patients (471.73 ± 378.86 vs. 289.22 ± 173.67 pg/ml, p = 0.004). At a cut-off value of 351.25 pg/ml, the sensitivity and specificity of CTLA-4 in diagnosing MPE were 58.30% and 83.30%, respectively, and the area under the curve was 0.72. Pleural levels of CEA and CYFRA 21-1 were also higher in MPE. Using the combination of CTLA-4, CEA and CYFRA 21-1 increased diagnostic sensitivity to 88.89% and the area under the curve to 0.92. Conclusion: The results of this preliminary study suggest that increased levels of CTLA-4 correlate with MPE, and that CTLA-4 may have some diagnostic usefulness when used in combination with conventional tumor markers such as CEA and CYFRA 21-1. These results justify larger, more rigorous studies to validate our findings.

State Development, Institutional Flexibility and Long-Run Economic Growth: a Cross Country Empirical Examination

Mancur Olson

description: This thesis is an empirical investigation examining the impact of state development and institutional flexibility on economic growth, across fifteen developed countries from 1880 to 2008. The development of the state, particularly since the late nineteenth century, has resulted in the exponential growth of institutional complexity and living standards. While there is evidence to suggest institutional flexibility may have increased for a time during this period, evidence also indicates a subsequently decline over the course of the twentieth century, resulting in ‘rise and decline’ explanations for economic growth. This ‘rise and decline’ hypothesis is tested in this thesis in an attempt to rehabilitate the works of Mancur Olson. This thesis presents a new framework for establishing years of peak institutional flexibility and creates new data for measuring state development and institutional flexibility. It finds both improvements in state development and institutional flexibility explain changes in cross-country growth over the long run. This should come as encouragement to those interested in institutional justifications for economic growth and all interested in revitalising Olsonion explanations for the economic performance of countries over the long run.

description: Diethylenetriaminepentaacetic di(L-dopa ethyl ester) ligand (DTPA-2LDEE) was synthesized by reaction between diethylenetriaminepentaacetic dianhydride (DTPAA) and L-dopa ethyl ester (LDEE). This ligand reacted with gadolinium chloride and sodium pertechnetate to make the corresponding neutral gadolinium complex Gd-DTPA-2LDEE and technetium-99m-labeled complex 99mTc-DTPA-2LDEE, respectively. The ligand and complexes were characterized and their properties in vitro and in vivo were also evaluated. Gd-DTPA-2LDEE possessed higher relaxation effectiveness and lower cytotoxicity to human hepatoma HepG-2 cells than Gd-DTPA. 99mTc-DTPA-2LDEE had enhanced single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) signal enhancements of the kidneys in rats and provided longer duration time than that of 99mTc-DTPA. Therefore, 99mTc-DTPA-2LDEE can be selectively excreted by the kidneys and used as a potential radioactive probe in SPECT.

description: Two new isostructural dinuclear complexes, Ln2(4-cpa)6(phen)2 (Ln = Eu (1); Tb (2), 4-cpa– = 4-chlorophenylacetate, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline), have been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, powder X-ray diffraction, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The lanthanides are bridged by two bidentate and two tridentate carboxylato groups to give centrosymmetric dimers with Ln···Ln separations of 3.967(2) and 3.937(3) Å for 1 and 2, respectively. Each metal is nine-coordinate and exhibits a distorted tricapped trigonal prismatic geometry. Both 1 and 2 emit characteristic, intense luminescence at room temperature with lifetimes up to 0.890 ms (at 611 nm) and 0.995 ms (at 543 nm). Poor luminescence efficiency is observed for 2. 4-Chlorophenylacetate, 1 and 2 have been screened for their phytogrowth-inhibitory activities against Brassica napus L. and Echinochloa crusgalli L., and the results are compared with the activity of quizalofop-P-ethyl.

description: Pyrogenic carbon (PyC), including soil native PyC and engineered PyC (biochars), is increasingly being recognized for its potential role as a low-cost immobilizer of contaminants in soils. Published reviews on the role of soil native PyC as a sorbent in soils have so far focused mainly on organic contaminants and paid little or no attention to inorganic contaminants. Further, a comprehensive review on the production of both natural PyC and engineered PyC (biochars), mechanisms involved, and factors influencing their role as soil contaminant immobilizer is so far not available. The objective of this review is thus to systematically summarize the sources, formation, and properties of PyC, including its quantification in soils, followed by their roles in the immobilization of both organic and inorganic contaminants in soils. Effectiveness of PyC on bioavailability, leaching, and degradation of soil contaminants was summarized. Notably, the mechanisms and factors (for the first time) influencing the immobilization processes for soil contaminants were also extensively elucidated. This review helps better understand and design PyC for soil contaminant immobilization.

Marketising Post-1992 Universities in the Knowledge Economy: a Value Chain Approach

Subjects: marketisation

description: This thesis sets out to examine the impact of marketisation on the value chains of a number of English post-1992 universities between 1992 and 2010. The research focuses on the relationships and interplay between knowledge and value in the context of the knowledge economy and the increasing marketisation of the higher education sector. While the extant global value chain (GVC) literature tends to focus on manufacturing networks and chains, this thesis will argue that (quasi-) public service sector value chains, especially those in higher education provide important cases for study. In-depth interviews with twelve members of the ‘institutional elite’ within the post-1992 sector of higher education, supported by rich documentary analysis, provides compelling evidence for modifications to the existing ‘value chain’ framework in order to better account for the particularities of (quasi-) public services and service work. The research proposes a typology designed to capture fragmented and commodified knowledge, and its practical manifestations, generated within the higher education sector. Beyond this, it attempts to rationalise the notion of value (in the context of the value chain framework) with the production, diffusion and dissemination of knowledge for higher education institutions. The study also develops a broad value chain for the post-1992 sector of higher education to explore the robustness of the conceptual ‘value chain’ framework for similar organisations. The research concludes that marketisation has indeed in part been responsible for encouraging universities to re-structure their value chains. It also challenges the conceptual reach of the existing ‘value chain’ framework by making a number of insightful observations regarding the nature of (higher education) service activities. Specifically, it identifies a number of underplayed factors including (1) the treatment of knowledge and value (2) ‘institutional elites’ (3) ‘ideology as governance’ (4) the (quasi-) public service sector and (5) place as having particular consequences for the conceptualisation of (quasi-) public service sector value chains.
How training consultants perceive their networking practices in relation to generating business

Publisher: name: University of Hertfordshire
Year: 2002
Subjects: Management & business studies, Management

description: This thesis explores how training consultants perceive their networking practices in relation to generating business. The literature recognises the importance of networking to gain business, yet contains little research. Existing material is either quantitative research or personal accounts not within a research context. My qualitative research is based on interviews, informal conversations, personal construct psychology techniques, observation and reflection with 7 main contributors and through 45 other situations including my experiences as a training consultant. It draws on planned and spontaneounsa turallyo ccurrings ituations. Some results contribute to knowledge by bringing together dispersed items in the literature and revealing ways in which they apply to training consultants. These include networking strategies (eg forming consortia, networking as a subject expert, targeting a sector and networking with everyone). Other results confirm the literature which, for example, stresses the importance of trust. My research reveals ways in which training consultants can develop or lose trust. Other findings, not in the literature, make original contributions to knowledge, such as a strategy that involves networking with other providers. It emerged clearly that networking with another primary reason in mind such as self-development can be more effective in terms of gaining business. I found how training consultants can gain visibility, use the Internet to raise visibility, and that there is considerable backlash in the training world against consultants attending events to get to know potential clients. Some factors that lead to discomfort when training consultants network are identified such as dislike of cold calling, uncertainty over networking etiquette, problems with initially meeting people, reputation issues and lack of skill. I reveal the impact of congruency of behaviour, the way in which we look for similarity or difference and the way in which we maintain contact on building and maintaining rapport when networking to gain business
A humanoid robot as assistive technology for encouraging social interaction skills in children with autism
Creators: name: Robins, Ben
Publisher: name: University of Hertfordshire
Year: 2005

description: Interactive robots, virtual environments and other computer based technologies are increasingly applied in rehabilitation therapy and education. The research presented in this thesis investigates the potential use of a humanoid robot as assistive technology for encouraging social interaction skills specifically in children with autism. The research focuses on ways in which the humanoid robot can engage autistic children in simple interactive activities such as turn-taking and imitation games, and how the robot can assume the role of social mediator, encouraging the children to interact with the robot, with each other and with co-present adults. The research also investigates which robot design (in terms of appearance) best facilitates these interactions. The approach that was developed in the research adopted a longitudinal repeated measure design, carried out over a long period of time. Based on the video material documenting the interactions, several quantitative and qualitative analyses were conducted. The quantitative analyses showed an increase in the duration of pre-defined interactional behaviours toward the later trials. The quantitative analysis in regard to the robot’s appearance clearly indicated, by their response, the children’s preference for interaction with a plain featureless robot over interaction with a human-like robot. Qualitative analyses in the form of case-study evaluations of segments of trials are presented, observing the children’s activities in their interactional context. Some of the analyses focus on joint attention skills which play a fundamental role in human development and social understanding. In the setting used, joint attention emerges from natural and spontaneous interactions between the children and an adult and between the children and other children. The analyses revealed further aspects of social interaction skills (such as imitation, ii turn-taking, role-switch, body-orientation) and communicative competence that the children showed. The results show how children exhibited interaction skills where the robot, assuming the role of a social mediator, served as a salient object mediating joint attention with other people (adults and children).

Developing leadership : learning what cannot be taught
Creators: name: Shiel, Michael Thomas
Publisher: name: University of Hertfordshire
Year: 2003

description: This thesis explores leadership in a business setting and how it is learned, and the role that a teacher may play in the process of learning. The thesis draws on Stacey's theory of complex responsive processes of relating in organisations to present a view of leadership as skilled participation in an ongoing process of interaction rather than as an individualistic act. The theory is also used to take a view on the process of learning the skills of leadership. At the outset, the ideology of mainstream management, and how it is typically learned, is examined through the study of a narrative account in relation to relevant literature. A number of issues are explored which give rise to the author's dissatisfaction with current approaches. In subsequent sections, a number of typical teaching situations, a leadership workshop and a strategy workshop, are studied in narrative form and explored from the standpoint of Stacey's theory. The argument in the thesis is that while management is concerned with the coherence of action in an organisation, leadership is to do with willing and informed participation which derives from the shared meaning which is made of the situation in which the participants find themselves. What is different about the argument presented is that shared meaning arises, not from the act of an individual, but from the ongoing interaction of all participants. Not all participants in this interaction are the same; some will be more powerful, while some will be more skilful in discerning, making sense and interacting with other participants. To the extent that participants see an individual as skilled in this way, that person will be seen in a leadership role. These skills of leadership, and how they are learned, are explored with particular reference to Foulkes' theory of Group Analysis.

description: Objectives: The World Health Organisation has predicted that by 2020, brain injury will be one of the leading causes of disability in the world (Hyder et al, 2007). Psychological difficulties are common in this population, with up to 60% of individuals experiencing mental health difficulties (Acquired Bain injury Outreach Service, 2012). Therefore, with the rapid rise in referrals, services are under increasing pressure to provide innovative ways of offering effective and cost-efficient care. This research aimed to evaluate a novel transdiagnostic Acceptance and Commitment Therapy group approach for supporting individuals adjusting to life following the diagnosis of a neurological condition. Methods: A mixed-methods waiting-list control design was used and carried out across two sites of Hertfordshire Neurological Outpatients Service. The outcomes of the group were assessed using four outcome measures evaluating acceptance, self-identified difficulties, low mood and anxiety, as well as a semi-structured interview to identify mediators of change. Results: Ten participants from the intervention group completed, equating to a 76.9% completion rate. The results indicated that those in the intervention group made significant improvements across all measures of acceptance, self-identified difficulties and psychological distress. Those in the waiting list groups did not experience any change in these domains. The qualitative feedback from participants was also highly positive. Participants reported the usefulness of the ACT strategies, in addition to valuing being in a group with others with a range of difficulties. Participants reported greater awareness and acceptance, as well as increased activity and improved mood. Conclusions: The ACT group is a potentially effective and cost-efficient method of supporting individuals with adjustment following diagnosis of a neurological condition. Despite these promising findings it is important to acknowledge the limitations, such as the small sample size and research design. Further research would be beneficial in order to evaluate the intervention using more rigorous methods.

description: Introduction 
Status epilepticus (SE), a condition characterized by abnormally prolonged seizures, is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. It is a neurologic emergency that needs to be promptly recognized and treated. Refractory status epilepticus (RSE) is defined as "status epilepticus persisting despite administration of at least two appropriately selected and dosed parenteral medications including a benzodiazepine." Super refractory status epilepticus (SRSE) is defined as "status epilepticus persisting at least 24 hours after onset of anesthesia, either without interruption despite appropriate treatment with anesthesia, recurring while on appropriate anesthetic treatment, or recurring after withdrawal of anesthesia and requiring anesthetic reintroduction." 
Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) was initially proposed in psychiatry in the 1930s and is still in widespread use to treat refractory psychiatric disorders. ECT has medically documented safety and efficacy in this setting. Seizure reduction or control attributed to ECT in the setting of SRSE has been reported in several case reports and small case series. The mechanism by which ECT aborts SE is poorly understood. Better understanding of the impact of ECT for patients who develop SRSE on seizure burden and outcomes is still needed. 
Methods and Analysis
This scoping review protocol is based on guidelines from the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) and follows guidelines from the Preferred Reporting Items Checklist for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) extension for Scoping Reviews checklist. Electronic databases (Medline [Ovid], The Cochrane Library [Wiley], Embase [Elsevier], Web of Science, and CINAHL [EBSCO]), will be searched to identify relevant papers, which will be independently appraised by two independent reviewers. Data relevant to patient population, clinical course, and outcomes will be collated in a prespecified proforma. 
Ethics and Dissemination 
Results will be disseminated through a peer-reviewed academic journal. The review itself will deal exclusively with secondary data and thus will not require ethical approval.

description: The vision of IASIS project is to turn the wave of big biomedical data heading our way into actionable knowledge for decision makers. This is achieved by integrating data from disparate sources, including genomics, electronic health records and bibliography, and applying advanced analytics methods to discover useful patterns. The goal is to turn large amounts of available data into actionable information to authorities for planning public health activities and policies. The integration and analysis of these heterogeneous sources of information will enable the best decisions to be made, allowing for diagnosis and treatment to be personalised to each individual. The project offers a common representation schema for the heterogeneous data sources. The iASiS infrastructure is able to convert clinical notes into usable data, combine them with genomic data, related bibliography, image data and more, and create a global knowledge base. This facilitates the use of intelligent methods in order to discover useful patterns across different resources. Using semantic integration of data gives the opportunity to generate information that is rich, auditable and reliable. This information can be used to provide better care, reduce errors and create more confidence in sharing data, thus providing more insights and opportunities. Data resources for two different disease categories are explored within the iASiS use cases, dementia and lung cancer.

description: Since the outbreak of methylmercury (MeHg) poisoning in Japan and Iraq, mercury (Hg) is classified as well-established teratogen. The Portuguese region of Aveiro faced some decades ago an environmental Hg contamination due to activities from a chlor-alkali plant. Until now, no apparent evaluation was conducted regarding prenatal exposure to Hg in this area. The main objectives of this study were to: i) assess maternal and fetal exposure to Hg in the Aveiro region using noninvasive biological matrices; ii) examine the influence of variables that may contribute to Hg exposure during pregnancy; and iii) improve knowledge regarding metal accumulation and distribution over the maternal–fetal–placental unit. This study was performed in 50 mother–newborn pairs from the Aveiro district. Total Hg (THg) was quantified in maternal scalp hair, placenta, amniotic membrane, and umbilical cord. Maternal hair presented THg levels with a mean value of 900 ng/g, which is lower than the USEPA and WHO acceptable threshold. Regarding THg levels in placenta and umbilical cord, mean values were similar (decidua basalis: 32.84 ng/g; chorionic plate: 30.18 ng/g; umbilical cord: 30.67 ng/g). The amniotic membrane presented the highest THg levels with a mean concentration of 42.35 ng/g, reaching a maximum of 134.1 ng/g. Further, a significant positive correlation was noted between THg levels found in hair, and all matrices analyzed reinforcing the use of hair in biomonitoring studies with respect to maternal exposure to Hg. In general, levels of THg found in our study were lower than those in previous studies performed in Europe. Consumption of fish rich in selenium and bottled water was negatively correlated with THg levels. Finally, data demonstrated that Hg is capable of crossing the placental barrier and accumulate in placental tissues. Amniotic membrane seemed to play a role in metal detoxification, but further investigations are necessary to examine whether this catabolic process affects Hg accumulation.

description: Historically trans people have been advised that the gender role transitional process will undoubtedly result in the breakdown of their relationships. Research into trans people’s sexuality is growing, yet research into the sexuality of cisgender partners, in the context of their partners’ transition, is sparse. This project presents an in-depth narrative analysis of six cisgender women who have been partnered with trans identified individuals. The findings are presented through individual overall impressions of the participants and the collective narratives told. The main story plot that emerged was ‘the quest to stay together’ which is told through sub plots of identity, the body and invisibility. Further sub plots are offered in regards to the support participants accessed to assist in ‘the quest to stay together’. The analysis includes the ways in which narrators drew on, and/or challenged, social discourses of gender and sexuality and also performative aspects of identity. Clinical implications, limitations of the study and future research are also discussed.

description: O estudo centra-se na análise semântica do relato joanino da unção de Betânia (Jo 12,1-11). Entre os diversos estudos realizados, o nosso tem a particularidade de compreender esse episódio como o corolário da actividade de Jesus e, ao mesmo tempo como o início da sua paixão, morte e ressurreição. Nesse sentido, o estudo propõe-se apresentar a identidade de Jesus e da missão por ele confiada aos discípulos segundo a proposta do quarto evangelista. O estudo parte do texto canónico – tendo por base o texto Novum Testamentum graece editado por E. Nestle – K. Aland e outros (Stuttgart 271993) – e do princípio de que o Evangelho joanino é uma obra literária inserida no seu contexto histórico e com o objectivo de conduzir à fé e à sua confissão em Jesus Cristo, o Filho de Deus (20,31). Assim, partindo do texto, do seu enquadramento e estrutura, analisamos o seu significado.

description: Amidines, due to their unique biocompatibility and desirable physical characteristics, have been the functionality of choice as a scaffold for large number of drug synthesis. But still synthesis of amidines in the presence of other active functional groups or pharmacophore, remained a challenge. In this work, a simple and reliable protocol for conversion of nitrile-amide to unsubstituted amidine–amide is developed using metal amide and/or ammonia gas. The scope and efficiency of this synthetic strategy are demonstrated on several substrates which differ in functional groups will be discussed. In this process, 10 novel aryl amidines in good yields (upto 85%) were synthesized. Biological evaluation revealed that compound 4-(aminoiminomethyl)-N-(2-furanyl methyl) benzamide (IC50 = 9 µM) and 4-(aminoiminomethyl)-N-(3-pyridinylmethyl) benzamide (73.36% growth inhibition) showed moderate efficacy for cancer cells.

O contributo de N. Cabasilas à espiritualidade litúrgica
Creators: name: Cordeiro, José Manuel Garcia
Publisher: name: Didaskalia
Year: 2008

description: Nicolau Cabasilas, um teólogo leigo oriental do séc. XIV, deixou uma das mais profundas reflexões sobre a liturgia e a vida espiritual. No livro A vida em Cristo descreveu a experiência da sua profunda amizade com Cristo a partir da celebração litúrgica dos sacramentos. O presente artigo salienta a importância de Cabasilas na espiritualidade litúrgica da Igreja, com a intenção de conhecer e aprofundar a vida em Cristo que se nos comunica pelos sacramentos e à qual permanecemos com a colaboração da nossa vontade. A liturgia é expressão da autêntica espiritualidade. A vida em Cristo na suas várias fases, apoia-se na escuta da Palavra, na experiência do Mistério e na visão da Glória, e será perfeita na vida futura onde ouviremos a Voz do Silêncio de Deus.
