description: A língua velosa é uma patologia benigna e auto-limitada, pouco frequente em idade pediátrica. Caracteriza-se por hipertrofia das papilas filiformes línguais com acumulação de queratina e, devido à proliferação de bactérias cromotogéneas, a língua pode ter a coloração escura. É tipicamente assintomática e o diagnóstico diferencial com candidíase oral é essencial, uma vez que a língua velosa habitualmente resolve espontaneamente, apenas com uma boa higiene oral. Os autores apresentam um caso clínico de um lactente de 6 meses, cuja observação da coloração característica da língua, permite imediatamente o diagnóstico.

description: O Streptococcus do grupo B (SGB) é a principal causa de sépsis neonatal e meningite nos países desenvolvidos. A implementação do rastreio materno universal e profilaxia antibiótica periparto levou a um declínio significativo da incidência de sépsis precoce mantendo-se constante a incidência de sépsis tardia. A epidemiologia e a patogénese da infeção tardia são pouco conhecidas. A transmissão através do leite materno tem sido descrita na literatura mas poucos são os casos confirmados. Descrevemos um caso de infeção tardia por SGB em gémeos prematuros associada a ingestão de leite materno infectado. O estudo por RAPD-PCR (random amplified polymorphic DNA-polymerase chain reaction) confirmou igualdade genotípica entre a estirpe isolada no leite materno e a identificada no líquido cefalorraquidiano do 1º gémeo. A transmissão através do leite materno deve ser considerada na infeção tardia por SGB. Group B Streptococcus (GBS) remains the leading cause of neonatal sepsis and meningitis in industrialized countries. Whereas the use of intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis has led to a significant decline in early-onset sepsis, the incidence of late-onset sepsis remained unchanged. The epidemiology and pathogenesis of late-onset GBS disease is poorly defined. The transmission of GBS through the ingestion of breast milk has been reported in the literature, but only a few cases confirmed. The authors describe a case of late GBS infection in twins associated with the ingestion of infected breast milk. The genotypic equality between GBS isolated in breast milk and that identified in the cerebrospinal fluid of the 1st twin was confirmed by RAPD-PCR (random amplified polymorphic DNA-polymerase chain reaction). The transmission of GBS through breast milk should be considered in late-onset or recurrent disease.

description: Many Nigerian women have acquired formal education such that in virtually every part of Nigeria today, almost every extended family unit can boast of a female graduate of one profession or another. Most of these qualified women are employed and are working in various establishments contributing their quota at both the state, national and international levels. May others are self-employed and playing appreciable roles in the national development. In the education sector, women account for a good percentage of the teaching force especially in the nursery, primary and secondary school levels. It is observed that a higher percentage of women are employed in unskilled labour. In some academic institutions sampled, the ratio of males (53.2%) and females (46.8%) do not differ significantly as found in case of Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka. Secondary school female teachers in Anambra state also compare favourably with their male counterparts recording a total of 258 principals in her secondary schools comprising 149 (57.8%) males and 109 (42.3%) females. Many of these women have risen to he top positions in these institutions which are good. In all the Nigerian universities, female lecturers are found in many women have therefore been found qualified and employed to perform equal roles alongside their male counterparts in the fulfillment of some of the set objectives of the university. There is no gender discrimination in the distribution of lectures or considerations for promotion in the university. The time lag for male and female lecturers to become professors or get to the peak of their profession differs. The situation in all other endeavours like politics, media etc. it must be appreciated that the number of women in employment in Nigeria does not reflect the population ratio of women to men in the country in all human endeavours. Many factors adduce to this among which are low enrolment of women in some disciplines in Nigeria institutions, domestic responsibilities and child bearing and care, career demands and cultural attachment that males are more important than females etc.

description: No matar ni ver matar animales (1985) created by Marta María Pérez Bravo and When I Am Not Here/Estoy Allá (1994) by María Magdalena Campos-Pons are two photographs inspired by Afro-Cuban mythology, particularly the beliefs and symbolism of Santería, a syncretic religious tradition stemming from the history of slavery and colonialism in Latin America. Most scholarship on the syncretic religions in Cuba is informed by Fernando Ortiz's theory of transculturation, which contextualizes cultural mixing through the lens of European dominance. This tendency often ignores the reciprocity of cultural exchange between Africa, the Americas and Europe that has shaped creole identity, especially female creole identity. The main goal of this study is to reposition Pérez Bravo and Campos-Pons's works within the context of creolization as a means to better understand the role of gender and Afro-Cuban tradition in different constructions of creole identity. This thesis proposes an interpretation of No matar ni ver matar animales and When I Am Not Here/Estoy Allá through the postcolonial trope of cultural cannibalism (first elaborated by Brazilian poet and playwright Oswald de Andrade in 1928), as a means of providing an alternative analysis of how the legacies of colonialism drive contemporary artistic production in Cuba. This study positions Pérez Bravo and Campos-Pons's artworks as engaging the concept of cultural cannibalism, and thereby challenging the dominant interpretations of Afro-Cuban traditions through notions of transculturation. At stake is a more complex recognition of how colonial histories influence expressions of female Cuban identity.

description: This dissertation quantifies the climatological characteristics of cool-season (November-April) atmospheric rivers (ARs) over the western U.S., and identifies favorable conditions for the inland penetration of ARs approaching the U.S. west coast. To quantify the climatological characteristics of cool-season ARs, they are objectively identified in the ERA-Interim reanalysis dataset on the basis of vertically integrated water vapor transport from November 1988 to April 2011. The climatological characteristics of ARs are generally largest along the coasts of Oregon and Washington, decreasing gradually southward along the coast, and rapidly eastward across the Sierra-Cascades Ranges. Over the interior, these characteristics are largest over the southwest and northwest, whereas they are smallest over the central and southern Great Basin, which lies downstream of the southern or "high" Sierra Nevada. The climatological characteristics of ARs over the western U.S. are strongly influenced by the climatology of landfalling ARs along the west coast and by water vapor depletion, particularly over high topographic barriers. Data from 72-h forward trajectories initiated from 950 hPa within ARs near the North American west coast are used to identify conditions that are favorable for AR penetration into the interior. These trajectories are classified as coastal-decaying, inland-penetrating, or interior-penetrating based on whether they remain within an AR upon reaching selected transects over the western U.S. Conditions associated with interior-penetrating AR trajectories include a more amplified atmospheric pattern, stronger southwesterly flow, and larger amounts of water vapor transport. Interiorpenetrating AR trajectories most frequently originate along the Oregon coast, but trajectories originating along the coast of the Baja Peninsula are most likely to eventually penetrate into the interior. Although coastal-decaying and interiorpenetrating AR trajectories experience similar decreases in specific humidity, the latter experience offsetting increases in wind speed that allow them to maintain large water vapor fluxes. Interior-penetrating AR trajectories lose a smaller fraction of their initial water vapor because they have more to begin with. Hence, synoptic conditions favoring larger initial water vapor flux and allowing for increases in wind over the western U.S. appear to play an important role in the maintenance of ARs as they penetrate into this region.

Tarsal coalition

description: Ankle-related ailments resulting from genetics or injury vary throughout the population and a variety of treatment methods exist to help these individuals cope with limited ankle mobility. Major ankle ailments such as tarsal coalitions and ankle arthritis cause severe ankle pain, especially on uneven surfaces, limit the range of lateral ankle motion, and often require expensive surgical treatments. Noninvasive treatments exist but  none are capable of reducing ankle pain on uneven surfaces.   A device capable of maintaining a level walking surface on low-angled terrain was developed to test whether this concept would be feasible to reduce ankle moment requirements resulting from reduced lateral ankle motion on these surfaces. After three design iterations: first an orthotic, then a shoe sole, and finally a rocker/roller pin system with elastic sidewalls; two prototypes with different sidewall thickness were built. Prototype characteristics were determined using a custom test fixture, force plate, and motion capture system. Pilot testing was performed using a "wooden sandal" with thin wall prototype attached to the bottom. Data were collected using a motion capture system and results suggest the prototype could significantly reduce user ankle deflection. However, stability concerns prohibited further human trials. Therefore, a mathematical model was developed to simulate the possible effects the system would have on ankle moments on angled terrain.

Posttranscriptional regulation of iron homeostasis by iron regulatory protein 2.

Subjects: Metabolism
Homeostasis

description: Iron-regulatory proteins (IRPs) are cytoplasmic proteins that bind to RNA stem-loop structures termed iron-responsive elements (IREs) present in either the 5'- or 3' untranslated regions (UTR) of mRNAs involved in iron metabolism. Binding of IRPs to IREs in 5' UTRs represses mRNA translation, whereas binding of IRPs to IREs in 3' UTRs stabilizes mRNA. Two IRPs known as IRP1 and IRP2 have been identified. The function and regulation of IRP1 have been extensively studied in the last five years. IRP1 is a dual function protein acting as a RNA binding protein when iron is scarce, and a cytoplasmic aconitase when iron is abundant. Little was known about the structural and biochemical characteristics of IRP2. In order to understand the role of IRP2 in cellular iron metabolism, IRP2 was purified from rat liver and the gene encoding it cloned from a rat cDNA library. Biochemical characterization showed that both IRP1 and IRP2 bind to different IREs with similar affinities and function as translational repressors during in vitro translation. IRP2, however, is different from IRP1 in the following aspects. First, unlike IRP1, IRP2 does not exhibit aconitase activity. Second, although IRP2 shares 61% amino acid identity with IRP1 and contains the three cysteines that coordinate the 4Fe-4S cluster in IRP1, it also contains a cysteine/proline rich 73 amino acid insert and has substitutions at two aconitase active site residues. Third, although iron reduces the IRE-binding activities of both IRP1 and IRP2, IRP1 protein levels remain constant, whereas IRP2 protein levels are reduced. The reduction in IRP2 protein levels is due to increased turnover of IRP2. The degradation of IRP2 requires protein synthesis and is mediated by the proteasome. These data not only showed that a new iron-regulatory protein is present and it is regulated differently from the already characterized IRP1 but also raised questions as to the role of IRP2 in iron homeostasis.

description: The overall god of this dissertation is to investigate the role of specific biochemical determinants of DNA replication fidelity in genomic stability and tumor progression in mammals. This dissertation also describes the development of an assay to examine the effects of potential mutator genes on spontaneous mutation frequency in vivo .  Chapter 2 describes an examination of the roles of specific alleles of the 3 ' -5 ' exonuclease of yeast polymerase 8 in determining spontaneous mutation. Alteration of two conserved amino acids implicated in exonucleolytic catalysis caused potent mutator phenotypes, showing that these residues are required for genomic stability. This is the first analysis of these residues in a eukaryotic nuclear polymerase. Yeast homologues of human polymerase ? variants in mutator cell lines caused a modest increase in spontaneous mutation rate. The interaction of these proofreading mutants with a defect in mismatch repair resulted in synergistic mutator effects. These findings imply that there may be multiple components to mutator phenotypes in cancer.  The generation of a mutator phenotype could be an early step in carcinogenesis. Chapter 3 describes a test of this hypothesis employing a mutant hamster CTP synthetase gene, previously shown to cause a mutator phenotype in Chinese hamster ovary cells. To examine effects on tumorigenesis in vivo , this mutant was expressed as a transgene in mice. Five independent transgenic mouse lines showed significantly increased tumor incidence in multiple tissues. These results imply that the mutator CTP synthetase gene is sufficient for carcinogenesis in mammals.  The measurement of mutation frequencies in vivo is important to understand the role of changes in mutation rate in disease. Chapter 4 of this dissertation describes an assay to measure the frequency of base substitution mutations using transgenic bacteriophage-derived shuttle vectors as mutagenesis targets in mice. Recovery of the transgenes by polymerase chain reaction and quantitation of mutation frequency using a genetic test in E. coli showed that this strategy successfully recovered sufficient numbers of transgenes, but it posed limitations on the sensitivity of the assay. These indings indicate that alternate strategies may be required to measure rare mutations occurring in mammalian cells.

description: Although single-channel electrode arrays implanted in the scala tympani of  deaf patients are useful as an aid to lip reading and to distinguishing some environmental sounds, they do not transmit intelligible speech.  Multichannel electrode arrays, which take advantage of the  cochleafs tonotopic organization,, may be capable of generating the complex patterns of neural activity necessary for speech discrimination. In this study, multichannel electrodes were implanted in the cochlea of two 61-year-old volunteers, and the connecting wires were brought through the skin via a percutaneous connector.  One volunteer had been bilaterally deaf since birth; the other had been unilaterally deaf for approximately 15 years* Experiments with another bilaterally deaf patientj whose tympani was implanted with five electrodes by House in 1969, are also described.  Data on pitch and loudness discrimination as well as the effects of stimulation parameters on threshold, impedance, and electrode interaction are presented. Place pitch and periodicity pitch were observed in all volunteers. The results of pitch-matching experiments with the unilaterally deaf volunteer were consistent with tontopic maps of the cochlea, and initial experiments indicated that a pitch continuum can be achieved by combining place and periodicity pitch modulation. The loudness of the sensations elicited by intracochlcar stimulation could be modulated by changing the amplitude, frequency, and pulse durations of the stimulation wave form. An analytic expression for relating stimulation parameters and the loudness of stimuli was derived based on loudness matching experiments conducted with the unilaterally deaf volunteer.  Small difference limens of 3 dB SPL indicated that it will be possible to achieve a relatively smooth loudness continuum. These results, coupled with the finding that subjective sensations remain stable over the long-term, support the feasibility of providing artificial hearing with a multichannel cochlear stimulation system.
Isolation of a transferrin-iron utilization mutant of Vibrio vulnificus by streptonigrin enrichment
Creators: name: Skinner, Jody
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2012

description: Vibrio vulnificus infections are associated with septicemia and severe wound infections in patients with liver disease, immunocompromised states and iron overload.  Mortality rate in septicemia cases approach 50%. V. vulnificus is highly dependent upon available iron sources for its pathogenicity.  Prior studies have shown that V. vulnificus exhibits virulence in serum with 100% iron saturated transferring, but lacks virulence in serum with 30% saturated transferring.  V. vulnificus strains have been found that lack a phenolate sideropore.  These strains are unable to utilize transferring as an iron source and have shown avirulence in mice studies.  These findings indicate a significant virulence factor of V. vulnificus is the utilization of transferring as a sole iron source.  Therefore, iron overload, with resulting transferring saturation, is the most significant predisposing factor to high mortality in V. vulnificus infections.  The specific aim of this project was to product a transferring-specific iron utilization mutant and study its related influence on virulence.  TnphoA mutagenesis, in conjunction with streptonigrin enrichment for specific iron uptake mutations, successfully produced one transferring-iron uptake mutant.  Further analysis showed that the organism was unable to produce catechol (phenolate) siderophones.  This project is intended to increase our overall understanding of Vibrio vulnificus and its iron dependence and pathogenesis.

description: Optimum use of thrombolytic therapy for patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI) requires an early diagnosis so that agents can be administered as early as possible after the onset of chest pain. Serum myoglobin and creatine kinase-MM (CK-MM) isoforms have been found to be sensitive and early markers for MI compared to CK-MB isoenzyme.  Serum myoglobin, CK-MM isoforms and CK-MB activity were measured by radioimmunoassay, isoelectrofocusing and agarose gel electrophoresis, respectively, in serial serum specimens from patients diagnosed with acute MI, burn and trauma. Total CK and total lactate dehydrogenase were also monitored and were analyzed by an autoanalyzer procedure. Both the MM3/MM1 ratio and the myoglobin level were elevated even in the first sample in 16 of 20 MI patients and within 1.2 hr in most of the other cases; CK-MB was elevated in the first sample only in 50% of the cases and took four to 6.5 hr in some cases to show above normal levels. Also, the MM3/MM1 ratio and serum myoglobin reached peak levels four to six hr earlier than CK-MB. There was no significant difference (p>0.1) between the time of appearance of elevated MM3/MM1 ratio and myoglobin level. The duration and the magnitude of elevation of these markers, however, were different from each other, with myoglobin remaining elevated significantly longer than MM3/MM1 ratio. Thirteen of 18 burn patients and 7 of 12 trauma patients had above-normal MM3/MM1 ratio and myoglobin level; therefore, evidently CK-MM isoforms and myoglobin are nonspecific in burn and trauma patients.  Because of the availability of rapid methods of testing for serum myoglobin and its longer duration of elevation, serum myoglobin is recommended as the test of choice for early detection of MI.

description: Sustained progress in scientific endeavors in solar energy, functional, and nanoscale material sciences requires advanced methods and software components that can be used to model the complex dynamics of excited states, including charge and energy transfer. Within this project, we develop the open-source Libra software which implements a multitude of community-developed methods and computational workflows for nonadiabatic and quantum dynamics (NA/QD) calculations. We focus on trajectory surface hopping methods, decoherence schemes, state tracking algorithms, and more. We interface Libra with various electronic structure codes and excited state calculation methods, enabling it to treat bigger systems and use higher levels of theory in materials modeling. We develop a database of analytic Hamiltonians and conduct a systematic assessment of various NA/QD methods to standardize and rank the “zoo” of the presently available NA/QD methods.

From Reaganomics to Ebonics:  the urban cultural dissonance of Hip-hop

Subjects: Hip-hop - United States
United States - Civilization - 1970-

description: This study seeks to understand the genesis of politically charged, or "conscious" hip-hop from a social, cultural, and political standpoint. It seeks to identify the convergent elements that fostered the development of hip-hop as an expression of urban black and Latino culture. It will place a special emphasis on the role poverty and economic conditions played in hip-hop's birth, the course of its development, and its discursive reflections. However, the study points out a strand of hip-hop that transcended mere social realism to produce a political message and was often a direct response to the policy and agenda of the Reagan and Bush administrations. At the climax of a march toward conservatism in America, the Reagan-Bush years embodied policy changes that incorporated a more conservative philosophy, to which the concerns of urban blacks often stood at odds. This new conservatism sought to rescind the policies of the liberal state, a large benefactor for the urban poor. Hip-hop developed into one of the few outlets for both cultural expression and political discourse for urban blacks and Latinos. Elements contained in various hip-hop songs directly respond to specific policies of the neo-conservative movement. Specific themes include crime, drugs, police repression, education, the military, and, most importantly, economics, which tends to be of overarching concern for all other themes. Together, specific messages contained in rap music produce a powerful dialectic that gives voice to many of those left by the wayside as the conservative political machine marched forward into the nineties, without much inclusion of black America. As urban blacks became more and more politically marginalized, rap gave voice to a generation that otherwise would not have had as loud a voice in American politics. Today, hip-hop culture pervades American life, and occupies a central role in American culture. This study examines the era when hip-hop first made headlines not only in the cultural arena, but also the political arena. The convergence of these two theaters climaxed in the "culture wars" over the censorship of rap music, from which hip-hop survived intact to ascend to the prominent position it currently occupies in American society. Without the early contributions of artists that sought to defy America's power structure, hip-hop may not have assumed such preeminence in mainstream (and underground) America.

description: The design and discovery of new solar energy materials can be accelerated via computational modeling of excited state dynamics in these systems. Nonetheless, training in this area remains relatively scarce; the community is often unaware of the available cyberinfrastructure, lacks the best practice guidelines, and may experience entry barriers to employing these advanced tools. Within this pilot project, we fill the above gaps by helping young scientists proficiently use the advanced cyberinfrastructure for modeling of excited state dynamics in solar energy materials. During summer schools, we trained a diverse group of participants in a variety of advanced software, including but not limited to Newton-X, SHARC, COLUMBUS, OpenMolcas, CP2K, pyUNIxMD, as well as the Libra code developed by the PI's group. We create an extensive set of tutorials, video tutorials, and examples for Libra and related packages and distribute them widely and openly via GitHub.

description: The Byker Wall housing development was built to re-house the working class community  that had grown up around the shipyards and factories along the banks of the Tyne.  Byker Wall is designed in a recognizably Post Modernist style. The new houses ran  across the hill, making it easier for people to zig zag up the steep incline and making the  most of the views. The low pitched roofs mean the houses do not block each others view.  Careful attention was given when demolishing the existing housing. The thought was  to not clear the slate, rather keep people in their homes until new ones were available to  move into, additionally some old buildings including pubs, churches and swimming baths  were retained in the new design. This would preserve the existing social fabric that so  many of the current residents wanted and what new modern developments of the time  were so good at destroying. The layout was designed to encourage cars to be left at  the edges of the estate and public spaces were included to encourage social interaction.

Subjects: Enterotoxins
Staphylococcal infections

description: Endotoxins are high molecular weight lipopolysaccharides, derived primarily from gram-negative bacteria.  They produce a wide variety of effects in animals and man including fever, alterations of blood leukocyte counts and glucose levels, the Shwartzman reaction, tumor necrotizing effects and cardiovascular effects.  Endotoxins are responsible for various so-called " injection fevers"  which have been of interest since the late 1800's and which are caused by contamination of solutions by gram-negative bacteria.  The possibility of such contamination must be taken into account in any study of pyrogenic effect supposedly induced by another agent. Recent reviews discussing various physiological effects of endotoxin include those by Bennett and Cluff (1957), Gilbert (1960) and Atkins (1960).  The present survey will consider only those aspects of the pyrogenic effect and changed in leukocyte counts which are important for a comparison with enterotoxin and for an understanding of some of the pyrogenic agents.

description: E. coli strain C1212 expresses two distinct pili on its cell surface that is encoded by separate pyelonephritis-associated pili (pap) gene clusters.  These gene clusters have been demonstrated to produce expression of pili composed of either 17 kilodalton (kd) or 21 pilin monomers.  The potential for copolymerization of the two pilin monomers, resulting in production of hybrid pili, was examined here.  Pilin structural genes (A-B) and assembly genes (C-G) from each cluster were isolated and ligated to pBR325 and pACYC184 plasmid vectors, respectively.  These vectors, harboring specific pap genes, were utilized to produce organisms carrying a set of pilin structural genes from one pap gene cluster and a set of assembly genes from the other (heterologous) pap gene cluster. Pilin monomers expressed by these organisms were examined by immunoelectron microscopy with 6nm and 18nm-diameter gold particles conjugated to a pap monoclonal antibody.  Individual pilin monomers were also harvested and purified from overnight cultures of uropathogenic E. coli expressing either pilin-17 or pilin-21.  Copolymerization of the two monomers was examined (in vitro) through specific iodination of pilin monomers, incubation and polymerization of monomer mixtures with 0.1M MgCl2, column chromatography of mixtures on Sepharose CL-6B and Sephadex G-100, and Immunoblots of pilin-17 and pilin-21 immunoprecipitates.  Data gathered from complementation analysis of heterologous gene clusters and immunoprecipitates suggest that in vitro copolymerization of pilin monomers and hybrid pilin production can occur.

Development of a positive aging strategy training protocol: a feasability study
Creators: name: Mansour, Emma Louise
Publisher: name: University of Utah

description: Previous studies have identified one strategy (forgiveness) as efficacious for enhancing subjective well-being. Despite the interest in forgiveness and its relationship with physical and psychological health, training in forgiveness as a positive aging strategy  has yet to be examined as contributing to well-being in an older adult population. The current study attempted to address this issue through engaging processes related to  forgiveness such as dispositional empathy. Manuals were created based on the positive aging forgiveness strategy. The feasibility of a forgiveness intervention based on those manuals was assessed. The following two trainings were designed: (a) forgiveness and (b)  number-memory. Participants self-selected into either of the trainings. The forgiveness training group (n = 15) consisted of individuals who participated in a forgiveness strategy training workshop, and the number-memory training group (n = 6) consisted of individuals who learned a number-memory mnemonic. Impact of the strategy training was assessed on measures of dispositional forgiveness, empathy, satisfaction with life,  and memory self-efficacy. Participating in a positive aging strategy training did not result in statistically significant changes on any of the measures employed. Future research implications are discussed that may have contributed to these "no-effect" results.

description: Há pelo menos três temas importantes e complexos sendo discutidos ao mesmo tempo: a reforma do ICMS, os novos critérios de distribuição do Fundo de Participação dos Estados (FPE) e a participação de Estados e municípios na receita de royalties do petróleo. Uma negociação entre 27 estados, com interesses conflitantes, dificilmente levará a um consenso. Seria natural que o governo federal centralizasse e mediasse as discussões.
