description: We have carried out a several-year-long study of the Amanos Mountains, on the basis of which we present new sedimentary and structural evidence, which we combine with existing data, to produce the first comprehensive synthesis in the regional geological setting. The ca. N-S-trending Amanos Mountains are located at the northwesternmost edge of the Arabian plate, near the intersection of the African and Eurasian plates. Mixed siliciclastic-carbonate sediments accumulated on the north-Gondwana margin during the Palaeozoic. Triassic rift-related sedimentation was followed by platform carbonate deposition during Jurassic-Cretaceous. Late Cretaceous was characterised by platform collapse and southward emplacement of melanges and a supra-subduction zone ophiolite. Latest Cretaceous transgressive shallow-water carbonates gave way to deeper-water deposits during Palaeocene-Eocene. Eocene southward compression, reflecting initial collision, resulted in open folding, reverse faulting and duplexing. Fluvial, lagoonal and shallow-marine carbonates accumulated during Late Oligocene(?)-Early Miocene, associated with basaltic magmatism. Intensifying collision during Mid-Miocene initiated a foreland basin that then infilled with deep-water siliciclastic gravity flows. Late Miocene-Early Pliocene compression created mountain-sized folds and thrusts, verging E in the north but SE in the south. The resulting surface uplift triggered deposition of huge alluvial outwash fans in the west. Smaller alluvial fans formed along both mountain flanks during the Pleistocene after major surface uplift ended. Pliocene-Pleistocene alluvium was tilted towards the mountain front in the west. Strike-slip/transtension along the East Anatolian Transform Fault and localised sub-horizontal Quaternary basaltic volcanism in the region reflect regional transtension during Late Pliocene-Pleistocene (<4 Ma).

description: Hemidesmus indicus (L.) R. Br. was extensively used as hypoglycaemic agent and significance of this plant on secondary complications of diabetes remained unknown. The present study was to investigate the anti-cataractous activity of H. indicus against streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic cataract in rodent model. Root extracts have been prepared and tested for inhibition of rat lens aldose reductase (AR) activity. In addition, its pharmacological potential has been investigated in STZ-induced diabetic cataract. Methanol extract of H. indicus-inhibited AR activity in vitro decreased the blood glucose levels, inhibited the AR activity and delayed the onset and progression of cataract in a dose-dependent manner in in vivo and the antioxidant markers have been normalised. Our results demonstrate that H. indicus has decrease the osmotic stress by inhibiting the AR activity and prevented the loss of antioxidants and delayed the progression of diabetic cataract in STZ-induced diabetic rats.

description: El tabaco era considerado una planta mágica para los pueblos prehispánicos de México porque "hace visible el aliento". En el siglo XVII el fumar se convirtió en moda, originando con ello toda una serie de inventos que utilizaba la aristocracia para diferenciarse del vulgo; a pesar de que el tabaco se conoce desde hace más de 3,000 años, fue hasta mediados del siglo XX cuando la ciencia médica se atrevió a denunciar la relación directa entre el tabaco y ciertas enfermedades. Desde el punto de vista odontológico, es la cavidad bucal donde se produce el primer contacto que tiene el fumador con el tabaco produciendo entre otras patologías: Estomatitis epidermoide, infección gingival, caries dental y pérdida de dientes.

description: It is well known that polyether-based copolymers have good blood compatibility, although many mechanisms have been proposed to explain their favorable performance. Our objective in carrying out the present study was to obtain a better understanding of the effect of the (poly)ether segment on blood compatibility. Therefore, we synthesized poly(propylene glycol) (PPG)-based initiators for atom transfer polymerization, where the number of propylene glycol (PG) units in the PPG (Pn(PG) was varied from 1 to 94. Methyl methacrylate (MMA) was polymerized using the initiators, resulting in the formation of polyMMAs with a PG-based ether part at the polymer terminal. We mainly investigated the effects of Pn(PG) on the surface properties and platelet compatibility of the PPG-polyMMA. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and surface contact angle (CA) analysis revealed the exposure of the PG units at the surface of the polymer. The platelet compatibility of the polymers was improved compared with a commercial polyMMA, even when Pn(PG) = 1. These results suggest that PG units have an important influence on favorable blood compatibility, regardless of the Pn(PG) value. We also investigated protein adsorption behavior in terms of the amount and deformation of fibrinogen adsorbed on the polymer surface.

description: This research explores novel methods to assess microbial contamination in soils and surfaces, focusing on the impact of diarrheal illness, especially in vulnerable populations like young children. The study introduces composite sampling techniques using bootsocks and gloves, comparing them with traditional spot-based methods. The results show that composite sampling, especially with bootsocks, offers a more accurate and sensitive detection of microbial concentrations. Through understanding of the uncertainties in the methodology, the findings suggest the potential for these techniques to improve assessments of contamination in high-risk and low-resourced areas, leading to more effective and economical monitoring approaches for addressing microbial contamination.

description: Alcea rosea L. is widely cultivated in gardens of Egypt as an ornamental plant and it has a great history of folkloric medicinal uses. In the present work, phytochemical investigation of the alcoholic extract of the flowers of A. rosea L. led to the isolation of six flavonoids (1–6). Dihydrokaempferol-4′-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (1), dihydrokaempferol (2), kaempferol-3-O-[6″-(E-coumaroyl)]-β-d-glucopyranoside (3), kaempferol-3-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (4), Apigenin (5) and kaempferol-3-O-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1′″→6″)-β-d-glucopyranoside (6). Four of the isolated compounds were evaluated for their antioxidant, immunostimulant and cytotoxic activities against HepG-2 cell line. Compound (3) showed potent cytotoxic activity against HepG-2 cell line with high selectivity towards hepatocellular carcinoma in vitro (with IC50 = 3.8 μg/mL). Compounds 1 and 2 exhibited significant antioxidant activity and compound 4 showed a significant immune stimulant activity. Compound 1 is isolated for the first time from genus Alcea and this is the first report for its biological investigation.

description: In recent years, models have been developed that conceive psychotherapy as a self-organizing process of bio-psycho-social systems. These models originate from the theory of self-organization (Synergetics), from the theory of deterministic chaos, or from the approach of self-organized criticality. This process-outcome study examines several hypotheses mainly derived from Synergetics, including the assumption of discontinuous changes in psychotherapy (instead of linear incremental gains), the occurrence of critical instabilities in temporal proximity of pattern transitions, the hypothesis of necessary stable boundary conditions during destabilization processes, and of motivation to change playing the role of a control parameter for psychotherapeutic self-organization. Our study was realized at a day treatment center; 23 patients with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) were included. Client self-assessment was performed by an Internet-based process monitoring (referred to as the Synergetic Navigation System), whereby daily ratings were recorded through administering the Therapy Process Questionnaire (TPQ). The process measures of the study were extracted from the subscale dynamics (including the dynamic complexity of their time series) of the TPQ. The outcome criterion was measured by the Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (Y-BOCS) which was completed pre-post and on a bi-weekly schedule by all patients. A second outcome criterion was based on the symptom severity subscale of the TPQ. Results supported the hypothesis of discontinuous changes (pattern transitions), the occurrence of critical instabilities preparing pattern transitions, and of stable boundary conditions as prerequisites for such transitions, but not the assumption of motivation to change as a control parameter.

Παρουσιάζονται τα βασικά χαρακτηριστικά και τα οφέλη τους. Στη συνέχεια, αναφέρονται συνοπτικά τα κριτήρια επιλογής κατασκευαστικών θέσεων (αποτελεσματικότητα συλλογής ρεόντων υδάτων από γειτονικές περιοχές, κοινωνική αποδοχή, κόστος κατασκευής και συντήρησης, κατανομή θέσεων στην περιοχή μελέτης). Η διαδικασία επιλογής επεξηγείται μέσω της εφαρμογής της σε μια πυκνοδομημένη περιοχή του Δήμου Κορδελιού-Εύοσμου, ο οποίος ανήκει στη μητροπολιτική περιοχή της Θεσσαλονίκης. Έχουν επιλεγεί 15 θέσεις σε δημόσιους ή δημοτικούς χώρους, όπως πάρκα, πεζοδρόμια και χώρους στάθμευσης. Ο καταλληλότερος από αυτούς αναλύεται λεπτομερέστερα. Συμπεραίνεται ότι οι κήποι βροχής αποτελούν μια σχετικά φθηνή και εύκολα κατασκευάσιμη επιλογή για τη βελτίωση της διαχείρισης αστικών υδάτων.
description: The paper deals with application of rain gardens, namely a prominent ecological rainwater management technique, in densely built urban areas. Their basic features and the respective benefits are outlined. Then, the criteria for selection of construction sites are briefly stated (efficiency of collecting rain runoff from adjacent areas, social acceptance, construction and maintenance cost, distribution in the application area). The selection procedure is explained through its application to a densely built part of Kordelio-Evosmos Municipality, which belongs to the urban area of Thessaloniki. Fifteen sites have been selected in public or municipal spaces, such as parks, sidewalks, parking areas. The most suitable of them is discussed in some detail. It is concluded that rain gardens offer a rather cheap and easily constructed option to improve urban rainwater management.

description: What are the structural characteristics of written scientific explanations that make them good? This is often difficult to measure. One approach to describing and analyzing structures is to employ network theory. With this research, we aim to describe the elementary structure of written explanations, their qualities, and the differences between those made by experts and students. We do this by converting written explanations into networks called element maps and measure their characteristics: size, the ratio of diameter to size, and betweenness centrality. Our results indicate that experts give longer explanations with more intertwinement, organized around a few central key elements. Students’ explanations vary widely in size, are less intertwined, and often lack a focus around key elements. We have successfully identified and quantified the characteristics that can be a starting point for guiding students towards generating expert-like written explanations.

description: Natural oils (NOs) and essential oils (EOs) are widely used in the food and beverage, medical, aromatherapy and cosmetic industries, but little is known about their elemental composition or antioxidant ability. Microwave-assisted acid digestion and inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy were used to determine the non-toxic elements (Al, Ca, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Na, Se and Zn) and potentially toxic elements (As, Cr, Cd, Mn, Ni and Pb) concentrations in 13 selected NOs and EOs. The per cent recoveries of laboratory-fortified blanks analysed for quality control were 94–110%. The elemental concentrations varied widely in NO and EO samples, as demonstrated by the large standard deviation obtained for some elements. The average levels of non-toxic elements (Al (14.5 ± 3.7 μg/g); Ca (278 ± 138 μg/g); Cu (7 ± 14 μg/g); Fe (16 ± 5 μg/g); K (36 ± 31 μg/g); Mg (56 ± 27 μg/g); Na (266 ± 277 μg/g); Se (0.7 ± 0.3 μg/g) and Zn (6.1 ± 2.6 μg/g)) were determined in NOs and EOs. Comparatively, low levels of potentially toxic elements (As (0.1 ± 0.2 μg/g); Cd (0.1 ± 0.0 μg/g); Cr (0.2 ± 0.1 μg/g); Mn (0.8 ± 0.1 μg/g); Ni (4.5 ± 2.2 μg/g); and Pb (0.3 ± 0.2 μg/g)) were obtained in the oils. Principal component analysis (PCA) revealed that the first two principal components explained 100% of the variability in the elemental concentrations. Na, Ca, Mg and K were the main contributors to PCA. Non-toxic element pairs were strongly correlated (R2 > 0.9440) indicating a common source in these oils, but toxic element pairs were poorly correlated. Although toxic element concentrations were low, routine monitoring in oils is recommended. The antioxidant ability of NOs and EOs to potentially reduce free radicals, which are often involved in several degenerative diseases, such as ageing, stroke, diabetes and cancers was determined by DPPH (2,2-di(4-tert-octylphenyl)-1-picrylhydrazyl) free radical scavenging assay and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. Jasmine, castor and tea tree lemon oils were the best antioxidants. The oils in this study have the potential to replace artificial antioxidants used in foods, cosmetics and other products.

description: Introduction: Premature atrial complexes (PACs) have been proposed as a possible mediator between normal sinus rhythm and atrial fibrillation (AF). The aim of this study was to summarize the available knowledge of association between PACs and recurrent stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) in ischemic stroke patients. Areas covered: In this systematic review, we investigated the risk of recurrent events in patients who experienced ischemic stroke or TIA. Occurrence of PACs in electrocardiographic monitoring after index stroke/TIA was required. We identified and included three observational cohort studies, investigating in total 1005 patients. The studies reported that a significant burden of PACs occurred in a high proportion of stroke and TIA patients. More PACs were independently associated with an increased risk of recurrent stroke or TIA or the composite of recurrent stroke/TIA or death. Definition of PACs cut-off as well as patient characteristics differed between groups. Expert Commentary: This review supports an association between higher burden of PACs and recurrent stroke, and stresses the need for studies on PACs in stroke patients. A special awareness of stroke patients with a high PACs load is recommendable particularly for assessing the intensity and duration toward AF progression, and possible future treatment recommendations.

description: The aim of this work is to analyse the performance of a solar energy collector system for water and air heating in real working conditions. Two coupled mathematical models have been developed. One of them describes the thermal behaviour of the Hybrid Solar Collector (HSC) and the second one describes the simultaneous operation of the HSC and of a fully mixed water storage tank. The dependence of the performance of the HSC system on the following three parameters has been studied: (1) water and air mass flow rate; (2) water pipe diameter and air channel height; (3) water storage tank volume. The mathematical models were used to evaluate the HSC system performance during 29 different days, covering all four seasons. A higher water flow rate generally enhances the thermal efficiency of the HSC system, but the enhancement became significantly smaller at higher air flow rates. Positive but small values are recommended for the difference between the fluid temperature at solar collectors exit and the water temperature in the tank. The thermal efficiency of the HSC system is higher on nearly clear sky and decreases in case the amount of clouds on the sky increases.

Pollutants’ concentrations, wastewater flows, hydraulic and organic loads and hydraulic retention times were determined in three small treatment plants (2000–10,000 population equivalent [p.e.]; flow > 432 m3/d) and two very small treatment plants (<2000 p.e.; flow 3/d). The performance assessment was based on operational parameters, treatment efficiency and effluent quality. Management data were collected through semi-structured interviews with managers of local water associations. The results support that the poor performance of the TPs is due to lack of operational expertise and financial resources for adequate operation and maintenance (O&M). Additionally, effective treatment was affected by the type of technology used and whether the plant design included plans for O&M with available resources. This study contributes to a better understanding of actual operating conditions of wastewater TPs in small towns, thus providing needed information regarding technology selection, design, implementation and operation.

description: Hablar de la transición epidemiológica obliga a la consideración y análisis de los perles epidemiológicos en las poblaciones y su impacto demográfico. Actualmente se sabe que las enfermedades infecto-contagiosas van siendo desplazadas por las no transmisibles y aquellas que el ser humano va generando como parte de sus estilos de vida. Estos aspectos deben ser atendidos en el momento de realizar cualquier análisis de la salud de la población y cómo se ve afectada por este tipo de procesos. Esto trae la necesidad de abordar integralmente el proceso salud-enfermedad y cómo las distintas profesiones implementan estrategias para su conocimiento y cómo desarrollar una práctica profesional efciente. Es en este contexto que el odontólogo requiere del conocimiento de las mismas y su impacto en cavidad bucal, por ello deberá implementar medidas para abordarlas en los distintos niveles de atención, brindando un mejor servicio a la población que acude a su atención odontológica.

description: OBJETIVO. Medir la eficacia del cepillado dental autónomo en la población preescolar. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS. En estudio clínico, descriptivo, longitudinal y analítico se analizó una muestra por conveniencia de 100 preescolares estratificada por edad y sexo. El tiempo de cepillado y placa dentobacteriana fueron medidas por dos observadores (k=.8289). La psicomotricidad fina se midió con un cuestionario validado con Alfa de Cronbach =.9428 que aplicó la psicóloga antes de que los niños tomaran la pastilla reveladora para evaluar placa dentobacte riana antes y después del cepillado dental autónomo. RESULTADOS. Existe correlación inversa entre la psicomotricidad fina presente con la cantidad de placa dentobacteriana removida (Corr Phi= -.8576) el valor Mc Nemar =1.29 (p= .10) indica la ineficiencia del cepillado. Existe riesgo para caries (RM= 2.9387). Como prueba diagnóstica es sensible y específica (Sen= 53.3%. Esp= 72.0%).

description: Se reservan varios significados para la palabra Estigma, algunos de ellos pueden ser aplicados a la situación que vivió Julian Assange, más allá del individuo, los gobiernos de Ecuador y del Reino Unido, incluso el régimen democrático en su conjunto. Antes de aludir a ciertas definiciones, cada una de las cuales nos remite a realidades diferentes, vale la pena señalar que, aplicado a la democracia, el término que nos ocupa anticipa los posibles resultados del acoso legal al que está siendo sometido el australiano refugiado en la embajada ecuatoriana en Londres.

description: Computing the cohomology of the tensor product of two vector bundles is central in the study of their moduli spaces and in applications to representation theory, combinatorics and physics. These computations play a fundamental role in the construction of Brill–Noether loci, birational geometry and S-duality. Using recent advances in the Minimal Model Program for moduli spaces of sheaves on P2, we compute the cohomology of the tensor product of general semistable bundles on P2. This solves a natural higher rank generalization of the polynomial interpolation problem. More precisely, let v and w be two Chern characters of stable bundles on P2 and assume that w is sufficiently divisible depending on v. Let V∈ M(v) and W∈ M(w) be two general stable bundles. We fully compute the cohomology of V⊗ W. In particular, we show that if W is exceptional, then V⊗ W has at most one nonzero cohomology group determined by the slope and the Euler characteristic, generalizing foundational results of Drézet, Göttsche and Hirschowitz. We characterize the invariants of effective Brill–Noether divisors on M(v). We also characterize when V⊗ W is globally generated. Our computation is canonical given the birational geometry of the moduli space, suggesting a roadmap for tackling analogous problems on other surfaces.

Neural Correlates of Speed Processing in the Primate Visual Area MT
Creators: name: AMANDA JEAN DAVIES
Publisher: name: Monash University

Subjects: Neuroscience

description: The visual world is processed in the brain as a series of characteristics, where the information is interpreted in different regions. For example, the colour and direction of an object will be processed via different neural pathways. However, there has long been ambiguity associated with how and where the speed of motion is processed. While investigating speed-tuning, I found that the stimulus used during experiments was crucial - by replacing the commonly used stimulus with one that traverses the visual field, almost 50% of neurons that were originally found to not encode for speed, became speed-tuned.

description: México pretende abatir los graves problemas que presenta en materia de cobertura de educación superior; sin embargo, se encuentra en una paradójica situación, ya que debe responder a las demandas de calidad educativa que, desde una visión mercantilista, le establecen algunos organismos internacionales de los que es miembro. Esto lleva a que el país adopte políticas educativas que derivan en la exclusión de los estudiantes que no cumplen con el parámetro establecido desde esta perspectiva. En este sentido, el rendimiento escolar se ha convertido en un indicador de calidad en la educación el cual se busca estandarizar, dejando a un lado las necesidades particulares de cada estudiante. Se propone la adopción de las políticas educativas propuestas por el Estado y los organismos internacionales, pero considerando los métodos que la institución universitaria puede establecer desde su interior para disminuir el riesgo de marginación social.

description: Improved monitoring and understanding of tree growth and its responses to controlling factors are important for tree growth modeling. Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) can be used to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of large-scale forest surveys in delineating three-dimensional forest structures and under-canopy terrains. This study proposed an ALS-based framework to quantify tree growth and competition. Bi-temporal ALS data were used to quantify tree growth in height (ΔH), crown area (ΔA), crown volume (ΔV), and tree competition for 114,000 individual trees in two conifer-dominant Sierra Nevada forests. We analyzed the correlations between tree growth attributes and controlling factors (i.e. tree sizes, competition, forest structure, and topographic parameters) at multiple levels. At the individual tree level, ΔH had no consistent correlations with controlling factors, ΔA and ΔV were positively related to original tree sizes (R > 0.3) and negatively related to competition indices (R R| > 0.7), ΔV was positively related to original tree sizes (|R| > 0.8). Multivariate regression models were simulated at individual tree level for ΔH, ΔA, and ΔV with the R2 ranged from 0.1 to 0.43. The ALS-based tree height estimation and growth analysis results were consistent with field measurements.
