The Grounding of Modern Feminism

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

"The time has come to define feminism; it is no longer possible to ignore it." The Century Magazine, 1914 In this landmark addition to scholarship, Nancy F. Cott, author of The Bonds of Womanhood, offers a new interpretation of American feminism during the early decades of this centurya period traditionally viewed as on in which women won the right to vote and then lost interest in feminist issues. Cott argues instead that his period was a time of crisis and transition from the nineteenth-century "woman movement’ to the beginning of modern feminism. Many of the issues that are central to women today, says Cott, were firmly articulated in the early decades of this century. For example, the problem of defining sexual equality so as to recognize sexual difference between men and women, the ambiguous potential of a movement seeking individual freedoms for women by mobilizing sex solidarity, and the tensions involved in attaining full expression in work and love are all enduring elements of feminism seized upon by women of the 1910s and 1920s. First discussing how feminism was indebted to its predecessors, Cott shows that increasing heterogeneity and diverse loyalties among women in the early twentieth century contradicted the premise of the nineteenth-century "cause of woman" (the singular noun symbolizing the unity of the female sex). From this crisis emerged feminism, championing individual variability and refuting the premise that a singular "woman" existed. Cott focuses on the suffrage-campaign milieu in which feminism arose, giving particular attention to the character and role of the National Woman’s Party from its militant suffrage days to its advocacy of the equal right amendment in the 1920s. Against prevailing interpretations of the decline of women’s political activities after 1920, Cott counterposes the swelling numbers in women’s voluntary associations and their political efforts. She also analyzes the pitfalls that awaited women who tried for effectiveness in the male-dominated political parties. She sets the controversy over the equal rights amendment in new context, discussing the full dimensions of the conflict as not merely over personalities, tactics, or class loyalties, but as a signal example of the modern problem of capturing sexual equality and sexual difference in law. The book explores the irony-strewn path of women who as aspiring professionals and political actors attempted to put into practice the feminist intent to replace the abstraction "woman" with, instead, "the human sex." This historythe story of women who first claimed the name feministsbuilds an essential bridge between the presuffrage period and today.
Word and Syllable Patterns in Palaung

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The Palaungs, called by themselves Ta-ang, are an ethnic group speaking a language of Northern Mon-Khmer type, distributed widely in the Shan State of Burma and the adjacent border regions of Yunnan, and having its greatest concentration in the former state of Tawngpeng in the northwestern part of the Shan State, where Palaungs are a majority in the population. Occupied chiefly in growing and trading in tea, they are at the same time the most prosperous of the minor hill races of Burma and the only one to have adopted Buddhism. Their language, which is not written—Shan being used as a written language by educated Palaungs—shows the influence of both Shan and Burmese; Shan loans are particularly frequent in the formal language of songs. A grammar and dictionary were published by Mrs. Leslie Milne in 1921 and 1931 respectively.

Genomic evidence of reproductive isolation among the Semisulcospira snails radiated in the ancient Lake Biwa

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Abstract Determining species boundaries within rapidly evolving species flocks is essential to understanding their evolutionary history but is often difficult to achieve due to the lack of clear diagnostic features. Ancient Lake Biwa harbours endemic snails in the genus Semisulcospira, a species flock with 19 described species. However, their morphological and genetic similarity cast doubt on the validity of their species status and their histories of explosive speciation. To evaluate their species boundaries, we examine patterns of gene flow among the sympatric or parapatric nominal Semisulcospira species in Lake Biwa. The principal component analysis and Bayesian structure analysis based on the genome-wide genotyping dataset demonstrated no gene flow between five pairs of the Semisulcospira species. However, we found the hybrids between the closely related species pair, Semisulcospira decipiens and S. rugosa. Despite the presence of hybrids, these nominal species still formed their own genetic clusters. There are variations in the chromosome numbers among these species, potentially providing an intrinsic barrier to panmictic gene flow. Our study showed complete or partial reproductive isolation among the sympatric or parapatric Semisulcospira species, demonstrating that the Semisulcospira snails are real species assemblages radiated in Lake Biwa. Our study provides significant implications for establishing species boundaries among rapidly evolving freshwater species in ancient lakes.
1344: CONTINUOUS-INFUSION SEDATION LORAZEPAM VERSUS MIDAZOLAM IN CRITICALLY ILL PATIENTS

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Introduction: Non-benzodiazepine sedatives are preferred over benzodiazepines (BDZ), such as lorazepam (LZ) and midazolam (MZ), for ventilated patients. Guidelines do not make recommendations regarding choice of BDZ for continuous sedation. Limited sample sizes and failure to assess clinically significant outcomes restrict the current literature, leading to diverse patient management. We sought to evaluate sedation with continuous infusions LZ versus MZ in the ICU. Methods: This was a retrospective multi-center cohort study (January 2016-June 2023) that evaluated mechanically ventilated ICU adult patients who received LZ or MZ for sedation (at least 12 hours). Patients on other BDZ, those receiving continuous BDZ infusion for specific indications (elevated intracranial pressures, status epilepticus, neuromuscular blocking agents, targeted temperature management post-cardiac arrest, and alcohol withdrawal management), those receiving ECMO or with positive SARS-CoV-2 tests were excluded. Patients were matched based on gender, SOFA score, ICU type, ethnicity, inclusion year, and type of institution. Outcomes evaluated include mechanical ventilation duration, ICU and hospital length of stay (LOS), and in-hospital mortality. Results: Of the 1194 patients who met inclusion criteria and did not meet exclusion criteria, 62 LZ patients were identified and matched to 62 MZ patients (124 patients total). There were no differences in baseline characteristics between matched cohorts. There was no difference in median lorazepam equivalent doses administered [LZ, 35.2 mg (9.2-88.8 mg) vs. MZ, 17.5 mg (7.5-57.6 mg), p=0.17] and duration of use [LZ, 0.9 days (0.3–1.9 days) vs. MD, 0.9 days (0.4–1.4 days), p=0.60]. There were no significant differences in outcomes evaluated, including duration of ventilation [LZ, 3.6 days (1.5-10.8 days) vs. MZ, 2.2 days (1.2-11.2 days), adj-p=0.27], ICU LOS [LZ, 8.7 days (4.0-14.7 days) vs. MZ, 6.7 days (2.9-9.9 days), adj-p=0.17], hospital LOS [LZ, 12.9 days (8.9-24.1 days) vs. MZ, 10.6 days (7.1-20.4 days), adj-p=0.27] and in-hospital mortality [LZ, 27 (43.5%) vs. MZ, 25 (40.3%), adj-p=0.73]. Conclusions: In the selected patient population, there was no significant difference between LZ and MZ in any clinical outcomes evaluated.

Mutagenesis as a Functional Genomics Platform for Pharmaceutical Alkaloid Biosynthetic Gene Discovery in Opium Poppy

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

Opium poppy (Papaver somniferum) accumulates the analgesic benzylisoquinoline alkaloids morphine, codeine and thebaine, and remains one of the world’s most important medicinal plants. The development of varieties that accumulate valuable compounds, such as thebaine and codeine, but not morphine precludes the illicit synthesis of heroin (O,O-diacetylmorphine) and has led to the establishment of alternative cash crops. Novel cDNAs encoding a growing number of biosynthetic enzymes have been isolated, and various –omics resources including EST databases and DNA microarray chips have been established. However, the full potential of functional genomics as a tool for gene discovery in opium poppy remains limited by the relative inefficiency of genetic transformation protocols, which also restricts the application of metabolic engineering for both experimental and commercial purposes. We are establishing an effective functional genomics initiative based on induced mutagenesis and recently developed reverse genetics methodology, such as TILLING (Targeting Induced Local Lesions IN Genomes), with the aim of identifying biosynthetic genes that can be used to engineer opium poppy for the production of copious levels of high-value pharmaceutical alkaloids. Mutagenesis involves the treatment of seeds with ethyl methane sulfonate (EMS) or by fast-neutron bombardment (FNB). In preliminary experiments with EMS-treated seeds, the screening of 1,250 independent M 2 plants led to the isolation of four mutants that displayed two distinctly altered alkaloid profiles. Two lines accumulated the central pathway intermediate reticuline and relatively low levels of morphine, codeine and thebaine compared to wild-type plants. Two other lines showed the unusual accumulation in the latex of the antimicrobial alkaloid sanguinarine, which is the product of a branch pathway distinct from that leading to morphine. The present status of –omics resources and functional genomics platforms available to study benzylisoquinoline alkaloid biosynthesis in opium poppy are discussed with a focus on the applications of induced mutagenesis.
Uplift rates from a new high-density GPS network in Palmer Land indicate significant late Holocene ice loss in the southwestern Weddell Sea

Field: Earth and Planetary Sciences (Physical Sciences)

The measurement of ongoing ice-mass loss and associated melt water contribution to sea-level change from regions such as West Antarctica is dependent on a combination of remote sensing methods. A key method, the measurement of changes in Earth's gravity via the GRACE satellite mission, requires a potentially large correction to account for the isostatic response of the solid Earth to ice-load changes since the Last Glacial Maximum. In this study, we combine glacial isostatic adjustment modelling with a new GPS dataset of solid Earth deformation for the southern Antarctic Peninsula to test the current understanding of ice history in this region. A sufficiently complete history of past ice-load change is required for glacial isostatic adjustment models to accurately predict the spatial variation of ongoing solid Earth deformation, once the independently-constrained effects of present-day ice mass loss have been accounted for. Comparisons between the GPS data and glacial isostatic adjustment model predictions reveal a substantial misfit. The misfit is localized on the southwestern Weddell Sea, where current ice models under-predict uplift rates by approximately 2 mmyr<sup>&#8722;1</sup>. This under-prediction suggests that either the retreat of the ice sheet grounding line in this region occurred significantly later in the Holocene than currently assumed, or that the region previously hosted more ice than currently assumed. This finding demonstrates the need for further fieldwork to obtain direct constraints on the timing of Holocene grounding line retreat in the southwestern Weddell Sea and that GRACE estimates of ice sheet mass balance will be unreliable in this region until this is resolved.
Long-Term Outcome of Surgically Treated Malignant Tumors of the Nasal Cavity and Paranasal Sinuses Involving Anterior Skull Base

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Purpose: We present our 15-year experience with 21 patients with malignant paranasal tumors involving the anterior skull base who underwent surgery via the supraorbital transbasal approach. The principle criteria for this treatment were that the tumor did not involve the internal carotid artery and intraorbital invasion was confined to one side if it existed. We evaluated the long-term results and complications of this treatment.

Implementation of an Automated Dispensing Cabinet System and Its Impact on Drug Administration: Longitudinal Study (Preprint)

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

BACKGROUND

A technology that has been widely implemented in hospitals in the United States is the automated dispensing cabinet (ADC), which has been shown to reduce nurse drug administration errors and the time nurses spend administering drugs.

OBJECTIVE

This study aimed to determine the impact of an ADC system on medication administration by nurses as well as safety before and after ADC implementation.

METHODS

We conducted a 24-month-long longitudinal study at the National Taiwan University Hospital in Taipei, Taiwan. Clinical observations and questionnaires were used to evaluate the time differences in drug preparation, delivery, and returns in the inpatient ward by nurses before and after using the ADC. Drug errors recorded in the Medical Incident Events system were assessed the year before and after ADC implementation.

RESULTS

The drug preparation time of the wards increased significantly (all <i>P</i>&lt;.005). On average, 2 minutes of preparation time is needed for each patient. Only 1 unit showed an increase in the drug return time, but this was not significant. There were 9 (45%) adverse events during the drug administration phase, and 11 (55%) events occurred during the drug-dispensing phase. Although a decrease in the mean number of events reported was observed during the ADC implementation period, this difference was not significant. As for the questionnaire that were administered to the nurses, the overall mean score was 3.90; the highest score was for the item “I now spend less time waiting for medications that come from the pharmacy than before the ADC was implemented” (score=4.24). The item with the lowest score was “I have to wait in line to get my patient medications” (score=3.32).

CONCLUSIONS

The nurses were generally satisfied with ADC use over the 9 months following complete implementation and integration of the system. It was acknowledged that the ADC offers benefits in terms of pharmaceutical stock management; however, this comes at the cost of increased nursing time. In general, the nurses remained supportive of the benefits for their patients, despite consequences to their workflows. Their acceptance of the ADC system in this study demonstrates this.

Knots, tangles and braid actions

Field: Mathematics (Physical Sciences)

Recent work of Eliahou, Kauffmann and Thistlethwaite suggests the use of braid actions to alter a link diagram without changing the Jones polynomial. This technique produces non-trivial links (of two or more components) having the same Jones polynomial as the unlink. In this paper, examples of distinct knots that can not be distinguished by the Jones polynomial are constructed by way of braid actions. Moreover, it is shown in general that pairs of knots obtained in this way are not Conway mutants, hence this technique provides new perspective on the Jones polynomial, with a view to an important (and unanswered) question: Does the Jones polynomial detect the unknot?
LARVAL PARASITOID OF THE ZEBRA CATERPILLAR, MELANCHRA PICTA (HARRIS) (LEPIDOPTERA: NOCTUIDAE) ON BLUEBERRY IN BRITISH COLUMBIA

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

The zebra caterpillar, Melanchra picta (Harris), has been reported as a minor pest of corn (Philip 1990) and some small fruits (Belton 1988; Fitzpatrick and Troubridge 1991) in British Columbia. This pest also infests various vegetables, blueberries, and currants, and has become more and more abundant lately in the Fraser Valley (unpublished data). The larval parasitoid Limneria annulipes Harris (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) has been reported to parasitize zebra caterpillar populations in eastern Canada (Maxson 1948). Fitzpatrick (pers. comm.) found Winthemia quadripustulata (Fab.) (Hymenoptera: Tachinidae) from zebra caterpillars in British Columbia. Here we report the occurrence of another larval parasitoid reared from natural populations of M. picta collected from commercial high bush blueberry fields in Delta, British Columbia, during June of 1992.
