title: Quantifying the Bechdel test of gender representation in major and independent film

description: To facilitate discussion of gender issues in media such<br>as film, it is useful to develop quantitative measures<br>which can be applied to a film corpus. In order to<br>scale to large film corpora, ideally we seek measures<br>which are not labour-intensive to apply. A simple test<br>popularised by Alison Bechdel is a lightweight way to<br>probe women’s representation in a film, and we use<br>this as the basis of a quantitative measure. However,<br>the original test is gender-asymmetric, which compli-<br>cates hypothesis testing. We describe a symmetrised<br>version of the test, and use it to analyse a corpus of<br>films from the year 2006, studying the output of the<br>US “Big 6” major companies as well as a sample of<br>popular “indie” companies. We find strong evidence<br>for gender imbalance as measured by the test, and<br>no difference in this respect between major and indie<br>companies. We discuss the usefulness and statisti-<br>cal power of the symmetrised Bechdel test and the<br>derived Bechdel coefficient.<br>

title: Perspectives on classification of selected childhood neurodisabilities based on a review of literature

description: <i>Purpose</i>: Classifying children with heterogeneous health conditions is challenging. The purposes of this perspective are to explore the prevailing classifications in children with the three selected neurodisabilities using the underlying framework of ICF/ICF-CY, explore the utility of the identified classifications, and make recommendations aimed at improving classifications. <i>Methods</i>: A literature search on six databases and Google was conducted. Articles published between the years 2000 and 2013 were included if they provided information on classification of cerebral palsy (CP), and/or developmental coordination disorder (DCD) and/or autism spectrum disorders (ASD). <i>Results</i>: Children with DCD and ASD are classified using combinations of multiple measures. The classifications in CP meet more of the proposed criteria for utility than those in DCD and ASD. <i>Conclusion</i>: None of the existing classifications addressed all the criteria. The heterogeneity associated with the selected neurodisabilities poses major challenges. Further work is required to establish improved classifications.

title: Cadaveric cardiosphere-derived cells can maintain regenerative capacity and improve the heart function of cardiomyopathy

description: <b>Objective</b>: Cardiosphere-derived cells (CDCs) improve cardiac function and attenuate remodeling in ischemic and non-ischemic cardiomyopathy, and are currently obtained through myocardial biopsy. However, there is not any study on whether functional CDCs may be obtained through cadaveric autopsy with similar benefits in non-ischemic cardiomyopathy. <b>Methods</b>: Cardiac tissues from human or mouse cadavers were harvested, plated at 4°C, and removed at varying time points to culture human CDCs (CLH-EDCs) and mouse CDCs (CM-CDCs). The differentiation and paracrine effects of CDCs were also assessed. Furthermore, intramyocardial injection of cadaveric CM-CDCs was performed in an induced dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) model. <b>Results</b>: With the extension of post mortem hours, the number of CLH-EDCs and CM-CDCs harvested from autopsy specimens decreased. The expressions of von Willebrand factor (VWF) and smooth muscle actin (SMA) on CDCs were gradually reduced, however, cardiac troponin I (TNI) expression increased in the 24 h group compared to the 0 h group. CLH-EDCs were also found to have similar paracrine function in the 24 h group compared to 0 h group. 8 weeks after CM-CDCs transplantion to the injured heart, mean left ventricular ejection fraction increased in both 0 h (64.99 ± 3.4%) and 24 h (62.99 ± 2.8%) CM-CDCs-treated groups as compared to the PBS treated group (53.64 ± 5.6 cm), with a decrease in left ventricular internal diastolic diameter (0.29 ± 0.08 cm and 0.32 ± 0.04 cm in 0 h and 24 h groups, vs. 0.41 ± 0.05 cm in PBS group). <b>Conclusion</b>: CDCs from cadaveric autopsy are highly proliferative and differentiative, and may be used as a source for allograft transplantation, in order to decrease myocardial fibrosis, attenuate left ventricular remodeling, and improve heart function in doxorubicin-induced non-ischemic cardiomyopathy.

title: Asthma susceptibility variants are more strongly associated with clinically similar subgroups

description: <i>Objective</i>: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) identified single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) reproducibly associated with asthma. This study evaluated whether GWAS-nominated SNPs are more strongly associated with asthma patients sharing the same clinical characteristics in order to refine the role of recently identified genes. <i>Methods</i>: Analyses were performed in unrelated French Canadian subjects (566 cases and 416 controls) with data collected on lung function, blood cell counts, atopy, disease history and medication. Previously defined asthma subgroups were used for analysis: 1) older patients with low atopy and low lung function, 2) high atopy, 3) young non-smoking women and 4) high smoking history. Allele frequencies of 68 GWAS-nominated SNPs were compared between controls and cases or controls and subgroups of cases defined by cluster analysis. <i>Results</i>: Twelve GWAS-nominated SNPs demonstrated evidence of replication (<i>p</i> value &lt; 0.05) for association with asthma. In phenotypically similar asthma patients, rs10197862, located in <i>IL1RL1/IL18R1</i>, was the most strongly associated SNP with the high atopy subgroup (<i>p</i> = 0.0009). SNPs located at the <i>IL33</i> and the <i>STARD3</i>/<i>PGAP3</i> loci were also associated with the high atopy subgroup. Two SNPs, rs1544791 (<i>PDE4D</i>) and rs3806932 (<i>TSLP</i>), were more strongly associated with the high smoking history subgroup than with asthma or any other subgroups. All 10 SNPs that replicated for asthma <i>per se</i> and within subgroups had lower <i>p</i> values in subgroups. Moreover, 12 SNPs were only replicated in a subgroup. <i>Conclusion</i>: This study shows that the majority of GWAS-nominated SNPs are more strongly associated with homogeneous subgroups of asthma than broadly defined asthma.

title: The heterologous expression of a <i>Glycine max</i> homolog of NONEXPRESSOR OF PR1 (NPR1) and α-hydroxynitrile glucosidase suppresses parasitism by the root pathogen <i>Meloidogyne incognita</i> in <i>Gossypium hirsutum</i>

description: Experiments in <i>Glycine max</i> (soybean) identified the expression of the salicylic acid signaling and defense gene NONEXPRESSOR OF PR1 (NPR1) in root cells (i.e., syncytium) parasitized by the plant parasitic nematode <i>Heterodera glycines</i> undergoing the process of resistance. Gm-NPR1-2 overexpression in <i>G. max</i> effectively suppresses parasitism by <i>H. glycines</i>. The heterologous expression of Gm-NPR1-2 in <i>Gossypium hirsutum</i> impairs the ability of the parasitic nematode <i>Meloidogyne incognita</i> to form root galls, egg sacs, eggs and second-stage juvenile (J2) nematodes. In related experiments, a <i>G. max</i> β-glycosidase (Gm-βg-4) related to <i>Lotus japonicus</i> secreted defense gene α-hydroxynitrile glucosidase LjBGD7 suppresses <i>M. incognita</i> parasitism. The results identify a cumulative negative effect that the transgenes have on <i>M. incognita</i> parasitism and demonstrate that the <i>G. max</i>–<i>H. glycines</i> pathosystem is a useful tool to identify defense genes that function in other agriculturally relevant plant species to plant parasitic nematodes with different strategies of parasitism.

title: The <i>Quercus petraea</i>-dominated communities in Italy: Floristic, coenological and chorological diversity in an European perspective

description: In Italy, woods dominated by <i>Quercus petraea</i> are well documented within local and regional phytosociological studies but a critical revision of their principal ecological-floristic components based on a comprehensive Italian data set was missing. We gathered 209 published and unpublished Italian phytosociological relevés, where <i>Q. petraea</i> was dominant, that were investigated by means of multivariate analysis. The ecological requirements of the resulting groups were indirectly calculated by means of Ellenberg indicator value, and a chorological analysis was performed. The fidelity coefficient (phi) for the diagnostic species of each group was calculated. According to our analysis, five different types of <i>Q. petraea</i> woods were found to be present in Italy. Each group was characterized by means of its floristic, ecological and chorological components. These resulting five groups were further compared with similar <i>Q. petraea</i>-dominated woods recorded in other European locations, as to the floristic and chorological components. We collected 57 synoptic tables of <i>Q. petraea</i> communities coming from all over Europe. This data set, together with the Italian relevés, was submitted to exploratory multivariate analysis using also the chorological information. According to these analyses, the Italian woods dominated by <i>Q. petraea</i> can be subdivided in two main clusters: the communities belonging to It-1 group (Alps) fell within the central European communities, distinguished by the predominance of large distribution and European chorotypes. All the other Italian groups of relevés resulted to be positioned in the cluster which includes central southern, central eastern and eastern European <i>Q. petraea</i> communities. From the syntaxonomical point of view, the results of this analysis allow to attribute the Italian <i>Q. petraea</i> woods to seven alliances of three different orders. The ecological similarities between <i>Erythronio</i>-<i>Quercion petraeae</i> and <i>Erythronio</i>-<i>Carpinion betuli</i> are highlighted and the distribution of <i>Erythronio</i>-<i>Quercion petraeae</i> is limited to northern Apennines, in particular, to slopes facing the Po Valley.
