[What's new in internal medicine?]

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

What's new in internal medicine will be dedicated to three topics: i) inflammatory myopathies constituting a heterogenous group of diseases whose clinical manifestations, immunological abnormalities, treatment response and outcomes vary widely; ii) alterations of gut microbiota contributing to the occurrence or development of a range of conditions, including autoimmune diseases for which further work is necessary to understand the correlation of dysbiosis with these diseases; iii) the reciprocal relationship between obesity, metabolic syndrome, atherosclerosis and autoimmune diseases. New data concerning systemic sclerosis, cutaneous vasculitis, adult Still's disease, autoantibodies anti DFS70, Epstein Barr virus and autoimmune diseases were also highlighted.
Mechanical and Biochemical Cycles in Muscle Contraction

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

The current biochemical approach to understanding the mechanism by which chemical energy is converted into mechanical energy in muscle is by investigating the kinetics of the reaction of ATP with the isolated contractile proteins in solution with stopped and quenched flow techniques. The results are interpreted in terms of a cycle of hydrolysis of ATP. The current mechanical approach lies through the kinetics of force production or length change in preparations with the contractile proteins intact, by following step changes in length or tension. The results are usually interpreted in terms of mechanical cycles of activity of cross-bridges, in which a cross-bridge progresses through a series of states with different mechanical properties. If the biochemist's and the mechanist's cycles are one and the same, a problem arises over the correspondence between states in the two cycles. One approach to answering this question is through the determination of the effect of pH and of such substances as ATP, ADP and inorganic orthophosphate on the mechanical response. We hope that these will act at known points in the biochemist's cycle and their influence upon the mechanical cycle should enable their location here to be ascertained. The paper deals with the effects of phosphate, ATP and magnesium ions on the mechanical response of insect flight muscle.
Weight loss after AT1-blockade is correlated to a downregulation of orexigenic peptides in the hypothalamus

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

Objectives: Angiotensin II has been reported to lower bodyweight, an effect, that is attributed to peripheral mechanisms e.g. lipolysis, reduction of body fat and thermogenesis as well as an increase in sympathetic activity. In contrast, it has recently been demonstrated, that weight loss was even observed after treating rats with AT1-blockers. Thus, the aim of our study was to investigate, whether weight loss might be associated with a regulation of orexigenic peptides (orexin; NPY; MCH: melanin concentrating hormone; AgRP: agouti-related protein) or anorexigenic peptides (POMC: pro-opiomelanocortin; CRH: corticotropin-releasing hormone; CART: cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated transcript) in the hypothalamus.
LASA SIGNAL AND NOISE AMPLITUDES FOR THREE TELESEISMIC EVENTS.

Field: Earth and Planetary Sciences (Physical Sciences)

Signal amplitudes, noise levels (rms), and signal-to-noise ratios were computed from LASA recordings (1325 seismograms) of three teleseismic events; in addition, unphased and phased subarray summations were formed. The results of this study indicate that signal amplitudes with in a subarray vary by a factor of three or four and tat there is an equivalent variation is subarray mean amplitudes across the entire LASA. Noise levels, on the other hand, are fairly uniform across LASA for a given event. Phased signal amplitudes within a subarray are about 2 db better than their corresponding unphased sums, but they are slightly smaller than the mean signal amplitudes. Both phased and unphased noise leveles within a subarray are approximately 6db lower than the subarray mean. (Author)
Emma and the Betrayal of Fanny Knight

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Chapter 3 examines both Emma and the surviving evidence of the advice to Fanny Knight that, Raff argues, initiated the turning point in Austen’s career. After that point, each of Austen’s novels imagines Fanny as its crucial reader and each presents its authorial persona as lover and matchmaker to the reader. Emma, an equivocal apology to Fanny, reworks Austen’s advice in two modes. While the plot chastises Austen’s rivalrous interference in Fanny’s match, the narrator’s discourse invites readers modeled on Fanny into love matches that depend on each member’s erotic preference for Austen herself. In the dark version of Janeism that Emma promotes, a matchmaking scheme borrowed from Richardson’s didactic novel The History of Sir Charles Grandison (1753-54), the reader is the advisee, student, protagonist, lover, and beloved of the Pygmalion-like Austen, but also her inadequate imitation, her go-between, and her defeated erotic competitor.
[Simultaneous measurement of muscle energy metabolism by MRS and frequency-domain NIR spectroscopy].

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The frequency-domain near-infrared spectrometry (NIRS) is capable of measuring the absolute absorption and reduced scattering coefficient of tissue noninvasively. This allows the quantitation of tissue hemoglobin concentration which reflects the balance between oxygen delivery and oxygen utilization of the skeletal muscle. Phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy (31P-MRS) has become a gold standard of noninvasive measurement of human skeletal muscle metabolism. The rate of phosphocreatine (PCr) resynthesis during recovery is an indicator of the rate of oxidative metabolism. The purpose of the present study was the effect of lower intracellular pH (pHi) on PCr and oxygenation recovery. The preliminary results of plantar flexion experiment on a healthy male subject show that both PCr resynthesis and reoxygenation were very much prolonged by severe acidosis (pHi = 6.42).
Correlation between the HLA genes and leukemia in Han and Uigur population,Xinjiang

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Objective To investigate the correlation between the HLA genes and leukemia in Han and Uigur population,Xinjiang.Methods A total of 411 patients with leukemia,including 79 Uigur,335 Han,were selected for this investigation.And 440 healthy people,including 220 Uigur,220 Han,were used as control population.HLA-A,B,DR typing was done by polymerase chain reaction with sequence-specific primers(SSP-PCR).Results The results showed that frequencies of HLA-B*3801(B*38) in Uigur patients(0.047 2) were higher than the healthy Uigur people(0.011 4)(P0.05),and HLA-A*2402(A*24) in Uigur patients(0.104 1)were lower than the healthy Uigur people(0.191 0)(P0.05).The frequencies of HLA-B*1518(B*71) and HLA-B*1502(B*75) in Han patients(0.018 1 and 0.031 9,respectively)were higher than the healthy Han people(0.000 0)(P0.05).Conclusion These results suggest that HLA-B*3801(B*38) is susceptible gene and HLA-A*2402(A*24) is protective gene for Uigur leukemia patients.The HLA-B*1518(B*71) and HLA-B*1502(B*75) are seem to contribute to the genetic susceptibility for Han leukemia patients.
Reusing Test-Cases on Different Levels of Abstraction in a Model Based Development Tool

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Seamless model based development aims to use models during all phases of the development process of a system. During the development process in a component-based approach, components of a system are described at qualitatively differing abstraction levels: during requirements engineering component models are rather abstract high-level and underspecified, while during implementation the component models are rather concrete and fully specified in order to enable code generation. An important issue that arises is assuring that the concrete models correspond to abstract models. In this paper, we propose a method to assure that concrete models for system components refine more abstract models for the same components. In particular we advocate a framework for reusing testcases at different abstraction levels. Our approach, even if it cannot completely prove the refinement, can be used to ensure confidence in the development process. In particular we are targeting the refinement of requirements which are represented as very abstract models. Besides a formal model of our approach, we discuss our experiences with the development of an Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system in a model driven development process. This uses extensions which we implemented for our model-based development tool and which are briefly presented in this paper.

High resolution micromachining using short wavelength and short pulse lasers

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

High-resolution micromachining of a range of materials (polymers, fused silica, silicon, diamond) has been investigated using both short wavelength (157 nm, F/sub 2/) and short (100 fsec, Ti:Al/sub 2/O/sub 3/) pulse laser radiation. Results using the two sources are compared.
Cytomegaloviral Infections: Epidemiology, Therapy, and Prevention

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The role of cytomegalovirus in human disease is a still-evolving story. Hanshaw presented an excellent review article on the subject in 1981 in this publication; this current review is an update, with particular emphasis on new concepts in the epidemiology and prevention of cytomegaloviral infection and disease.Historically, evidence of infection with cytomegalovirus was first reported by pathologists in many parts of the world. They noted the presence of giant cells with intranuclear inclusions while examining a diversity of organs microscopically. Isolation of the virus and development of serologic techniques eventually enabled a definitive study of the agent, its pathogenesis and epidemiology. Biologically, it is one of the herpesviruses and, as such, is a DNA virus. Other members of the group include varicella-zoster, herpes simplex, and Epstein-Barr virus. Several different strains of cytomegalovirus exist, and they have specific characteristics which are of interest. The virus is cell associated and tends to be very labile; it has a tendency to become latent and may possibly have malignant potential.EPIDEMIOLOGYPrevalenceInfection with cytomegalovirus is found throughout the world. Studies of prevalence in a number of diverse populations have indicated that cytomegaloviral infection is ubiquitous. The major differences in prevalence between populations are related to the speed of acquisition of infection in various geographic and socioeconomic settings.

Global cities: A multi-disciplinary review and research agenda

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

Multinational enterprise (MNE) location decisions are central to international business (IB) scholarship and research shows that global cities are key MNE investment locations. Despite growing awareness of their importance to MNEs, most literature on global cities resides outside the IB domain. To provide IB scholars with a foundation to advance global city research, we conduct a multi-disciplinary review of top journal articles organized into three themes: the nature of global cities, MNE strategic decisions in global cities, and outcomes of MNE investment in global cities. We use this framework to synthesize findings, discuss theoretical implications, and provide future research directions.
TILLAGE PRACTICES IN RELATION TO CROP YIELDS, POWER REQUIREMENTS AND SOIL PROPERTIES

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Tillage experiments were conducted on Burford loam and Lockport clay loam. Different implements and combinations of implements were used to accomplish nine methods of tillage. The mouldboard plough was used as a standard treatment and compared with other treatments using a plough equipped with sub-bases, a disk plough, a one-way disk, a field cultivator, and rotary tillage. Crop yields, power requirements, and the effect on soil physical properties were studied.On Burford loam, with a 5-year rotation of corn, oats, and hay for three years, the yield of oats was significantly better when the fall tillage included mouldboard ploughing. No tillage treatment resulted in significant differences in the yields of corn as silage, and of hay. On Lockport clay loam the crop yields from a rotation of corn, oats, hay, hay, fall wheat, and red clover, were not significantly affected by tillage treatment.Tillage treatments did not produce significant differences in soil aggregation, bulk density or aeration porosity in any year of the experiment. Significant differences were from year to year when the mean values of all treatments were compared.The power required to accomplish the tillage treatments was measured.
Factors That Cause Concerns after Cardioverter Defibrillator Implantation

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background and Objectives: The aim of the study was to assess the factors that influence the occurrence of concerns and their intensification after the implantation of a cardioverter defibrillator. Materials and Methods: This was a prospective and observational study including 158 patients. The study was conducted in two stages: stage I before implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) implantation and stage II follow-up visit six months after ICD implantation. Standardized questionnaires were used in both stages. Results: Age and female gender were significantly correlated with the occurrence and intensity of concerns. Patients who had a device implanted for secondary prevention also experienced higher levels of concern. Additionally, a multiple regression model using the stepwise input method was performed. The model was statistically significant and explained 42% of the observed variance in the dependent variable (p = 0.0001, R2 = 0.4215). The analysis showed that age (p = 0.0036), insomnia (p = 0.0276), anxiety (p = 0.0000) and negative emotions (p = 0.0374) were important predictors of the dependent variable and enabled higher levels of the number of concerns to be predicted. Conclusions: There is a relationship between the severity of the concerns related to an implanted ICD and age, gender, anxiety, negative emotions and insomnia. Indications for ICD implantation may be associated with increased concerns about ICD.
Epidemiology of Alzheimer’s Disease: Comparison between Africa and South America

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Alzheimer Disease (AD) is the most popular neurodegenerative disease of the last 25 years. Public leaders of sub-Saharan government and northern africa, as well as southern America; takes slowly the train in the global handling and management of AD. Disparities existed between north hemisphere and south hemisphere as studied by Allen et al., but the incidence and prevalence of AD are influenced by the same risk factors. The budget allowed to mental health also changes from one country to another, and the development of a global policy affects clearly the distribution of neurodegenerative disease in different areas. Previous studies reported the direct and indirect costs of AD as well as similar illnesses like Parkinson Disease and Dementia in a general population; but no recent investigation about prevalence or incidence was made in developing countries. Here, we investigated the global epidemiology of AD in southern America and africa. To address this aim, we computed data about prevalence, associated neurological disease, and incidence of AD. We compared after that statistics for the two continents. Findings revealed a prevalence and incidence of AD higher in south america compared with africa. Incidence increase faster in latin america than africa. This preliminary report show the necessity to explore more neurodegenerative disease in developing countries, to have a global point of view.

Development of a 3D Visualisation Model of the Island of Rava

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

This paper describes the process of producing an interactive 3D visualisation application of the Croatian island of Rava. For development of such a comprehensive 3D model, accurate representation of both, the underlying terrain and also the natural and artificial features imposed on this terrain, are of the highest importance. To achieve this, a variety of geospatial and cartographic source materials is combined using a wide range of tools and applications to form a base for 3D modeling and visualisation. The project research was thought and realized in order to become: a guide and a starting point for tourists, an updatable tool useful for the local communities (even thanks to the sustainability offered by the open source software used) and a scientific base for researchers and scholars. The final results of the research are visualisations of the island of Rava in 3D that simulate for the user the impression of reality. These representations offer the opportunity for interactive exploration and analysis by experts and those who are encountering this kind of representation for the first time, which makes them accessible to a wide range of users: tourists, ecologists, geographers, geologists, archaeologists, historians, town planners, foresters, agronomists and many others who want to geocode the results of their measurements and research.
Some Humidity and Light Reactions of the Granary Weevil,Sitophilus granarius(L.) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

The behaviour to moisture of a number of stored-product insects; Tenebrio molitor (Pielou and Gunn, 1940), Ptinus tectus (Bentley, 1944), Tribolium castaneum (Willis and Roth, 1950) and Tribolium confusum (Roth and Willis, 1951) have been studied. All these species live in a dry environment in flour and all have shown a preference for the drier of any two humidity alternatives. The moisture reactions of the granary weevil were studied since this species develops in a relatively moist environment (Richards, 1947) and should show a contrast to the reactions of the above species. The supplementary studies of this investigation were to determine the effect of moisture conditioning on the moisture reactions and to study the interaction between light and moisture.

Background: The use of local vascularized flaps has had significant impact on postoperative cerebrospinal (CSF) leak rates following endoscopic endonasal skull base surgery (EESBS). The middle turbinate (MT) flap is one alternative for reconstruction of sphenoid and fovea ethmoidalis defects. In select cases, the MT flap is an excellent alternative to the nasoseptal flap.
Waves generated by sources on expanding circular frames

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

This paper describes the waves formed by the sources on expanding circular frames. The solution is constructed by means of Smirnov method of incomplete separation of variables. The circular source expanding with a velocity that is greater than the velocity of light may be realized by means of the pulse of hard radiation with the conical front and the absorptive plane. The constructed scalar solutions can be used for electromagnetic waves.
