The Third Side of the Coin: Using Google Earth to Visualize Numismatic Data
Creators: name: Neumann, Kristina
name: Wallrodt, John
Publisher: name: Digital Classics Online
Year: 2017

description: This article presents one digital approach to ancient numismatics. The proposed methodology maps geo-referenced quantities of coin finds within the platform of Google Earth – a free virtual globe available through the Internet. Especially for the uninitiated scholar, Google Earth efficiently visualizes both the spatial and chronological distribution of thousands of coins and provides an intuitive and interactive space for exploring regional and empire-wide patterns in their movement. While the practical applications of this methodology are many, this article focuses on an ongoing study of Antioch-on-the-Orontes in northern Syria and its regional evolution after Roman annexation. This project draws upon Google Earth as an invaluable first step in synthesizing the wealth of disparate coin data available for the city. After outlining the methodology to achieve such a visualization, this article highlights several promising patterns revealed by Google Earth in the dataset.

description: Various waterborne anthropogenic contaminants disrupt the endocrine systems of wildlife and humans, targeting reproductive pathways, among others. Very little is known, however, regarding the occurrence of endocrine disruptive activity in South African freshwater ecosystems, and coastal ecosystems have not been studied in this regard. In a first attempt to investigate endocrine disruptive activity in South African coastal waters, surface water samples collected from harbours, river mouths and estuaries in three metropolitan municipalities, eThekwini (which includes Durban), Nelson Mandela (specifically Port Elizabeth Harbour) and City of Cape Town, were screened for (anti) oestrogenicity and (anti)androgenicity using recombinant yeast bioassays. Moreover, levels of the female hormone 17β-(o)estradiol (E2) were determined in all samples, as well as a selection of hydrocarbons in the eThekwini samples. A high proportion of samples collected from eThekwini were oestrogenic, whereas none from Port Elizabeth Harbour and only a single river mouth sampled in the City of Cape Town were oestrogenic. E2 was detected in all the samples tested, but at higher concentrations at the eThekwini and City of Cape Town localities than Port Elizabeth Harbour. In addition, the recombinant yeast assays revealed that anti-androgenicity was widespread, being detected in the majority of samples screened apart from those representing Port Elizabeth Harbour. Conversely, no anti-oestrogenic or androgenic activity was detected. Anti-androgenicity did not associate with hydrocarbon loads, providing evidence that other anti-androgens were responsible for the observed activity. The present data suggest potential reproductive disruption in marine and estuarine fauna inhabiting the eThekwini and City of Cape Town regions.

description: The accuracy of calculations of atomic Rydberg excitations cannot be judged by the usual measures, such as mean unsigned errors of many transitions. We show how to use quantum defect (QD) theory to (a) separate errors due to approximate ionisation potentials, (b) extract smooth QDs to compare with experiment, and (c) quantify those defects with a few characteristic parameters. The particle–particle random phase approximation (pp-RPA) produces excellent Rydberg transitions that are an order of magnitude more accurate than those of time-dependent density functional theory with standard approximations. We even extract reasonably accurate defects from the lithium Rydberg series, despite the reference being open-shell. Our methodology can be applied to any Rydberg series of excitations with four transitions or more to extract the underlying threshold energy and characteristic QD parameters. Our pp-RPA results set a demanding challenge for other excitation methods to match.

description: Objective:The cost-effectiveness of new oral disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) has not been modeled in highly active (HA) relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) requiring escalation therapy. This study sought to model the cost-effectiveness of fingolimod compared to dimethyl fumarate (DMF), for which relevant HA RRMS sub-group data were available, from the perspective of the National Health Service (NHS) in England.Methods:A cohort Markov model based on Expanded Disability Status Scale scores, similar to previous model designs, was constructed. Published post hoc clinical data in the HA RRMS sub-groups were taken from the pivotal trials for fingolimod and DMF vs placebo. Utility data for each health state and for relapses were used in line with previous similar models. Published costs were inflated to NHS cost year 2013–2014 and UK list prices used for both drugs. Possible Patient Access Scheme (PAS) discount scenarios were investigated.Results:In the base case, using list prices for each DMT, the average probabilistic incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) for fingolimod vs DMF was found to be £14,076, with a 73% chance of fingolimod being cost-effective at a willingness-to-pay threshold of £30,000. Scenario and sensitivity analyses showed that uncertainty in disability progression efficacy was a key model driver. The model was robust to other changes and the majority of PAS permutations do not contradict the base case finding of cost-effectiveness of fingolimod.Conclusions:In conclusion, fingolimod remains cost-effective in HA RRMS following the introduction of DMF to the UK market, and this paper supports the evidence that has led fingolimod to be the only oral DMT reimbursed for HA RRMS in England. This model supports the restriction imposed by National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) on DMF in HA RRMS and highlights the importance of considering different sub-groups of multiple sclerosis when performing health economic analyses.

description: ABSTRACTEquilibrium solubility of three pharmaceutical salts, namely, sodium naproxen (Na.NAP), procaine hydrochloride (PC.HCl), and lysine clonixinate (Lys.Clon), was determined in propylene glycol (PG) +water mixtures at 298.15 K. If the mole fraction concentration scale is considered, the mixtures composition-dependence of the solubility is different for these drugs. Thus, the solubility of Na.NAP increases non-linearly from pure water to pure PG. By contrast, the solubility of PC.HCl decreases non-linearly from pure water to pure PG. In a different way, the solubility of Lys.Clon increases from pure water to the mixture with mass fraction of PG, w1 = 0.80, and later, it decreases to reach a lower value in pure PG. A good correlation of the solubility data was obtained by using the modified NIBS/R-K model. Otherwise, the apparent specific volumes at saturation of these drugs were also calculated in all the mixtures under study.

description: Objective:Systemic lupus erythematosus is a complex autoimmune disease, most frequently affecting women of childbearing age. Women with lupus are at increased risk of pregnancy complications that are exacerbated by active disease. Despite this, their use of medications and hospital resources has not been extensively studied.Methods:Retrospective analyses of the Truven Health MarketScan database (2006−2012) aimed to quantify drug and resource utilization in pregnant women with lupus, as well as the incidence of pregnancy complications in these patients. Records of women aged 12−54 were reviewed and both lupus patients and pregnancies identified. Pregnant women with lupus were matched 1:5 with either pregnant women without lupus, or non-pregnant women with lupus.Results:Pregnancies with lupus were associated with increased complications when compared to pregnancies without lupus. During pregnancy, the use of immunosuppressants decreased in pregnant women with lupus, as did rheumatologist visits, while the number of women not treated with any immunosuppressant increased. Pregnant women with lupus showed higher overall treatment costs than controls. However, compared to non-pregnant women with lupus, medication costs actually dropped, possibly due to the withdrawal of medications from these patients or women becoming pregnant while disease activity was low.Conclusions:The large database analyses reported here revealed that pregnancies in women with lupus were associated with a higher risk of complications, higher healthcare costs, and fewer prescribed medications, including immunosuppressants, than the control groups. The increased risk of complications and decreased immunosuppressant use suggest that patients require additional guidance from physicians to give them the best chance of experiencing a safe pregnancy. Indeed, despite the recognized role active lupus plays in increasing pregnancy complications, women with lupus had fewer rheumatology visits during pregnancy, although their visits to their general practitioner/primary healthcare provider increased, highlighting the need for team-based co-ordination care between OBGYN physicians and rheumatologists.
Social Networks in Late Hellenistic Northern Etruria: From a multicultural society to a society of partial identities
Creators: name: Da Vela, Raffaella
Publisher: name: Digital Classics Online
Year: 2017

description: This contribution concerns the perception of local cultural identities in Hellenistic Northern Etruria. I aim to answer the following question: how did the evolution of the economic and politic relationships between settlements condition the perception and the expression of the local identities? During the Romanization, the Region of my case study presents a complexity of patterns, as result of the interaction of local needs and backgrounds with the global process of institutional and economic unification of the Mediterranean following. The Social Network Analysis (SNA) has been chosen as methodology to approach this complexity. I propose some parameters to detect local identity markers, then I present an integrated method to relate their development to the evolution of the relational networks between the communities.

description: Prosopographies disambiguate names appearing in sources by creating lists of persons, but the progress of scholarship now makes these lists difficult to maintain. In a digital context unique stable identifiers can be reshuffled ad libitum when searching and ordering information. Digital data increasingly brings together complementary research outputs: the Standards for Networking Ancient Prosopographies project takes on the challenge of creating an aggregated resource, adopting a Linked Open Data approach. In this paper we shall present three case studies highlighting the promise and problems of encoding unambiguous identities, titulature and other disambiguating information, and treating divine figures as person-data, respectively. Digital approaches are tools for research, assisting rather than replacing the historian, who remains central to the research endeavor.

Publisher: name: Digital Classics Online
Year: 2017

description: This article describes the results of advanced imaging pilot testing on unrolled Herculaneum Papyri undertaken in 2014 as part of a collaboration between the Universität zu Köln and the Biblioteca Nazionale di Napoli. Building on results obtained by a Brigham Young University team in 1999–2002 using near infrared (NIR) photography, the aim was to test the potential for improving legibility and documentation of surface structures by combining the nondestructive techniques of NIR and Reflectance Transformation Imaging (RTI). The results show that, in addition to achieving super high-resolution images with enhanced contrast between the black ink and carbonised papyrus, NIR-RTI enables more accurate recording of surface morphology surface and enables the user to clarify the relationships between the ink constrate and the papyrus substrate. The article also identifies areas for improving image acquisition and usability.

There is therefore concern about administering modified live IBR vaccines to suckling calves because of the possibility of shedding of the vaccine virus by vaccinates and subsequent transmission to the pregnant dam. The purpose of Phase I of this study was to show whether IBR MLV vaccine strain RT-22 causes virus shedding after parenteral vaccination of IBR-susceptible calves. Phase II of the study was designed to show whether immunosuppression 90 days after vaccination would result in recrudescence of the vaccine virus and subsequent viral shed.

description: Objective:This study evaluates the cost-effectiveness of memantine extended release (ER) as an add-on therapy to acetylcholinesterase inhibitor (AChEI) [combination therapy] for treatment of patients with moderate-to-severe Alzheimer’s disease (AD) from both a healthcare payer and a societal perspective over 3 years when compared to AChEI monotherapy in the US.Methods:A phase III trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of memantine ER for treatment of AD patients taking an AChEI. The analysis assessed the long-term costs and health outcomes using an individual patient simulation in which AD progression is modeled in terms of cognition, behavior, and functioning changes. Input parameters are based on patient-level trial data, published literature, and publicly available data sources. Changes in anti-psychotic medication use are incorporated based on a published retrospective cohort study. Costs include drug acquisition and monitoring, total AD-related medical care, and informal care associated with caregiver time. Incremental cost-utility ratio (ICUR), life years, care time for caregiver, time in community and institution, time on anti-psychotics, time by disease severity, and time without severe symptoms are reported. Costs and health outcomes are discounted at 3% per annum.Results:Considering a societal perspective over 3 years, this analysis shows that memantine ER combined with an AChEI provides better clinical outcomes and lower costs than AChEI monotherapy. Discounted average savings were estimated at $18,355 and $20,947 per patient and quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) increased by an average of 0.12 and 0.13 from a societal and healthcare payer perspective, respectively. Patients on combination therapy spent an average of 4 months longer living at home and spend less time in moderate–severe and severe stages of the disease.Conclusion:Combination therapy for patients with moderate-to-severe AD is a cost-effective treatment compared to AChEI monotherapy in the US.
Mapping the Words: Experimental visualizations of translation structures between Ancient Greek and Classical Arabic
Creators: name: Roeder, Torsten
Publisher: name: Digital Classics Online
Year: 2017

description: The article deals with presentation forms of linguistic transformation processes from ancient Greek sources that were translated into classical Arabic from the 9th to 11th century AD. Various examples demonstrate how visualizations support the interpretation of corpus structures, lexical differentiation, grammatical transformation and translation processes for single lexemes in the database project Glossarium Graeco-Arabicum. The database contains about 100,000 manually collected word pairs (still growing) from 76 texts and their translations. The article discusses how the project utilizes Sankey diagrams, tree maps, balloon charts, data grids and classical coordinate systems to point out specific aspects of the data. Visualizations not only help beginners to understand the corpus structure, they also help editors and specialized users to identify specific phenomena. A well-documented interface design is crucial both for usability and interpretative work.

description: Objective: Autoantibodies directed against the two principal antigens of the human exosome complex, PM75 and PM100, are present in systemic sclerosis (SSc) sera and have been associated with myositis and calcinosis. However, there is a paucity of data on the clinical correlates of these autoantibodies separately and in the absence of other SSc-specific antibodies. The aim of this study was to assess the clinical correlates of monospecific anti-PM75 and anti-PM100 in SSc. Methods: A tri-nation cohort of 1574 SSc subjects was formed, clinical variables were harmonized and sera were tested for anti-PM75 and anti-PM100 antibodies using a line immunoassay. Results: Forty-eight (3.0%) subjects had antibodies against PM75 and 18 (1.1%) against PM100. However, only 16 (1%) had monospecific anti-PM75 antibodies and 11 (0.7%) monospecific anti-PM100 antibodies (i.e. in isolation of each other and other SSc-specific antibodies). Monospecific profiles of each autoantibody included more calcinosis. An increased frequency of myositis was only seen in subjects positive for both anti-PM75 and anti-PM100 antibodies. Lung disease was only associated with anti-PM75 and subjects with anti-PM100 antibodies had better survival compared to other antibody subsets. Conclusion: The prevalence of monospecific anti-PM75 and anti-PM100 antibodies in this large SSc cohort was low. Disease features associated with anti-PM/Scl antibodies may depend on particular and possibly multiple antigen specificities. However, due to the small samples, these results need to be interpreted with caution. International collaborations are key to understanding the clinical correlates of uncommon serological profiles in SSc.

The JennyLynn Flow Simulator

description: Accurate recordings of vacuum levels and vacuum fluctuations during milking provide the best means of demonstrating the adequacy of any milking system. However, anyone involved in on-farm testing of milking equipment realizes the challenge in picking the "right cow" to check during milk time evaluations. Simply having a stranger in the parlor or the barn with test equipment will often upset the normal milk letdown and interfere with the flow rate on some cows identified as fast milking individuals. The JennyLynn Flow Simulator was developed to allow testing to be done in a controlled situation where the flow rate is known and repeatable. The artificial teat installed on the Jenny Lynn Flow Simulator has been fabricated to meet the ISO/DIS standards for artificial teats. These standards were certified by an ISO/DIS committee in a paper dated May 14, 1994. The test teat has a six (6) millimeter tube opening through the teat and extends 7 mm past the end of the teat with an additional thirty (30) millimeter extension of flexible hose which collapses during the closed phase of normal liner movement.

description: A cohort study was designed to evaluate the physiologic response of cows to naturally occurring coliform mastitis. In particular, the study was directed to determine: 1) the association of coliform (E. Coli and Klebsiella sp.) and gram positive (coagulase negative Staphylococcus and Streptococcus nonagalactiae) mastitis and subsequent liver cell damage by measuring serum sorbitol dehydrogenase (SDH), 2) the effect of coliform and gram positive mastitis on peripheral blood white blood cell counts (WBC) and packed cell volume (PCV), and 3) the value of physiologic parameters to predict the production outcome of a case of clinical mastitis.

description: ABSTRACTThis article describes in detail the library implementation of a Resource Description and Access (RDA) Enrichment project. The library “hybridized,” or enriched legacy data from Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules bibliographic records by the addition of specific RDA elements. The project also cleaned up various other elements in the bibliographic data that were not directly RDA-related. There were over 28 million changes and edits made to these records, changes that would never have been made otherwise because the library lacked the resources to do them independently. The enrichment project made the bibliographic data consistent, and helped prepared the data for its eventual transition to a linked data environment.

description: ABSTRACTDespite calls over the past decade and a half for MARC to be replaced with an encoding standard that is more in keeping with current metadata practices, the current standard has evolved in such a way as to render many of the arguments by those who call for its demise moot. A further revision to the standard is proposed to address the one remaining problem with MARC so as to allow it to better serve the needs of information seekers for years to come.
