RECITING THE PAST IN NORTHWEST ALASKA PHOTOGRAPHIC WORK

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

This paper follows some photographs produced by Edward Curtis from his fieldwork in northwest Alaska in the summer of 1927. Inspired by Deborah Poole's Poole, Deborah. 1997. Vision, Race, and Modernity: A Visual Economy of the Andean Image World, Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press. [Crossref] , [Google Scholar] work on the circulation of image‐objects, it offers an account of their production and changing appeal in the United States. What makes these particular prints interesting is the contemporary work that they facilitate in northwest Alaska, in a hotel built in the vicinity of the sites where these images were first taken. What difference does their lodging in that context make? What sorts of subjects and subjectivities do they cultivate there? How can these image‐objects in the hotel be looked at differently? In responding, it is suggested that these particular prints recite, re‐situate, and re‐sight the past in provocative ways.
Study on Toxoplasma gondii Vaccines

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Toxoplasma gondii is an intracellular parasite protozoan.Toxoplasmosis is an important zoonotic parasitic disease caused by Toxoplasma gondii,therefore,Toxoplasma vaccine referred to as an important measure has become a research focus against toxoplasmosis in present.Toxoplasma vaccine could play the maximal utility after Toxoplasma invaded the body,mediated the cellular immunity.The immune effect of the vaccine has a close relationship between the candidate antigen and adjuvant,which could generate different immune effects.Currently,the study on candidate antigen is mainly focused on parasite specific component protein and novel epitope gene,on the other hand,the traditional Freund's adjuvant was instead of Cholera toxin,hyaluronidase and CpG-ODN.On the basis of all these factors,there must be develped the ideal Toxoplasma vaccine in the future.

Liver metastasis surgery followed by radical treatment for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma: A case report

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The prognosis of patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) with liver metastasis is poor; therefore, chemotherapy is often selected instead of surgical intervention. However, there are some reports of cases becoming resectable after multidisciplinary treatment. On the other hand, there have been a few cases of long-term survival in which liver metastases were resected first, followed by prolonged chemotherapy and subsequent resection of the primary tumor. The present study describes the case of a patient with PDAC in which a liver metastasis was resected first, followed by chemotherapy and subsequent resection of the primary tumor, resulting in long-term survival. Briefly, a 72-year-old man diagnosed with resectable PDAC was scheduled to undergo subtotal stomach-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Intraoperatively, a liver metastasis was detected, and partial hepatectomy was performed. The patient received 13 cycles of modified 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin, irinotecan and oxaliplatin. A subtotal stomach-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy was then performed when no new lesions were observed. The patient received S-1 as adjuvant chemotherapy for 1 year postoperatively. Currently, 5 years after diagnosis, and 4 years and 3 months after the last surgery, the patient has experienced no recurrence. In conclusion, even if curative surgery is not possible because of a liver metastasis at the time of the initial operation, some patients may achieve long-term survival through resection, and preoperative and postoperative chemotherapy.

Workplace and occupational aggression in First Nations and Inuit health nursing stations in Manitoba region: incidence, types and patterns

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

The existence of workplace violence in remote and isolated nursing station settings has been an area of limited knowledge to date. This descriptive study explored the phenomena of workplace and occupational aggression (WPOA), an operational definition of workplace violence created to capture all exposures to verbal and physical aggression in the 21 First Nations and Inuit Health (FNIH) managed Nursing Stations in Manitoba. Using the Manitoba Region Occurrence Reports from 2008, it was found that nurses in nursing stations experience a range of WPOA exposures with verbal incidents being more commonly reported than physical incidents. Quantitative findings related to patterns of reported WPOA with respect to timing, type, perpetrators and concurrent substance use. Themes related to the impact of WPOA on nursing staff and responses of managers to reported incidents were generated from the qualitative analysis. Recommendations for policy, administration, education and future research were generated.
Seedless Copper Electrochemical Deposition on PVD Resistive Substrates as a Replacement/Enhancement for PVD Cu Seed Layers in HAR TSVs

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

The results of a wet alkaline seed deposition process directly on barrier layers or thin adhesion promoter films, such as CVD Co are presented. This solution has been successfully used for copper plating on blanket and patterned Though Silicon Via (TSVs) wafers covered with either silicon oxide/PVD Ta(N)/CVD Co or silicon oxide/PVD Ti/CVD Co stacks. Such direct plated films were used as seed layers for subsequent copper plating from a conventional sulfuric acid electroplating bath. The effect of the plated stack composition and thicknesses, processing waveform and applied current on the plating rate and morphology of the deposited copper has been investigated.
The application of scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and related techniques to the study of organic and biomolecular targets

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

Des méthodes de microscopie à effet tunnel (STM) ont été utilisées pour regarder (a) des monocouches et sous-monocouches auto-assemblées de butanethiol adsorbées sur des films hautement uniformes Au/mica, (b) des molécules d'ADN adsorbés sur différents substrats. De plus, des recherches comportant le traitement des surfaces avant déposition ont été effectuées. Deux solutions fortement oxydantes (acides sulfochromique et piranha) ont été l'objet d'études pour l'élimination des résidus organiques adsorbés sur les substrats d'or. Les traitements des surfaces d'or, à l'aide de l'acide piranha, conduisent à une destruction intense et incontrôlable de la surface provoquant ainsi de sévères perturbations topographiques. L'exposition des surface Au/mica à des solutions d'acide sulfochromique pour une courte durée induit sur la surface des piqurations permanentes atteignant une profondeur maximale d'une couche d'or. Une exposition prolongée de cet acide provoque plutôt une corrosion progressive de la surface jusqu'à la formation d'îlots de 3.3-3.6 A de hauteur sur une surface autrement plane. Cette piquration contrôlée par l'acide sulfochromique a été utilisée pour la préparation du substrat dans les expériences subséquentes. Les images STM obtenues pour des monocouches de butanethiol, qui ont atteint l'équilibre, montrent à résolution moléculaire des particularités que nous pensons attribuables aux méthyles terminaux de la surface organique. De grands domaines d'adsorbats organisés et une variante de la structure du super-réseau pxYJ reporté dans des études précédentes, sont observés sur ces surfaces. En utilisant cette nomenclature, la maille élémentaire de la structure reportée ici correspond à 7x -0. Les variations latérales en l'élévation des structures endommagées sont associées, sous toute réserve, aux liaisons thiolates sur différents sites (i.e. sites/cc et hep) du substrat de Au(lll). Contrairement aux études par UHV-STM, il a été possible d'observer des structures moléculaires dans les régions du super-réseau. Ces observations suggèrent que le facteur de remplissage de surfaces qui ont atteint l'équilibre, est très sensible à la méthode de préparation et d'entreposage des échantillons.
Update of gasoline consumption and emissions from leisure boats in Sweden 1990-2003 for international reporting

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

At present, gasoline consumption for gasoline leisure boats in Sweden are assumed to be 1.5 % of the national delivered amounts of gasoline per year, based on a Swedish EPA study in 1992. In 2004, Statistics Sweden performed a telephone survey to about 13 000 persons in order to gain information on the number leisure boats in Sweden 2004 and their usage. Comparisons of gasoline consumption estimation between the two sources, indicates large differences. Three approaches for estimating gasoline consumption 1990-2003 have been applied and presented in this report: Continue with the approximation of 1.5% of the delivered amount per year; assume constant consumption 1990-2004, by extrapolating the results from the 2004 survey; or interpolate the consumption 1990-2004, using 1.5% of the deliveries for 1990 and the survey result for 2004. Due to lack of evidence of any trend in gasoline consumption between 1990 and 2004, and good quality in the results from the 2004 survey, it is recommended in this report to apply constant consumption 1990-2003, based on the 2004 survey results, for international reporting. Several figures in the report elucidate how the emission level impact on domestic navigation varies depending on approach. In addition, gasoline consumption divided on 2-stroke and 4-stroke engines have been estimated for the whole time series 1990-2003, based on information from the two sources.

Relative Age Effect and Talent Identification in Youth Volleyball Players from the Polish Volleyball Federation Sports School

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Abstract Introduction. This study sought to determine differences in the quarterly age distribution of young Polish volleyball players from the Sports School of the Polish Volleyball Federation (SS PVF), to investigate quarterly differences in anthropometric characteristics and jump test results. Material and Methods. RAE of young players from SS PVF (n = 232) born between 1989 and 2002 was identified in the course of the research. Furthermore, the study included anthropometric characteristics and jump test results (attack jump – AJ). Results. The chi-square test (χ 2 ) revealed the overrepresentation of volleyball players born in quarters 1 and 2, both in the case of graduates (χ 2 = 27.32, p < 0.0001) and students who did not finish school (χ 2 = 17.95, p < 0.0005). Two-way ANOVA for unbalanced data for the Group factor showed significant differences in the value of estimated marginal means in the case of AJ (F(1,214) = 5.907, p < 0.016) and body mass (BM) (F(1,214) = 5.348, p < 0.022). Conclusions. These results point to the need for better understanding of RAE in order to avoid dropping out or the loss of potential talent, which will contribute to even greater development of volleyball in Poland.
Instability and Splitting of Mesoscale Rings using a Two-Layer Quasi-Geostrophic Model on anf-Plane

Field: Earth and Planetary Sciences (Physical Sciences)

Abstract Asymmetric instability of a circular Gaussian ring and evolution of a ring shape in a nonlinear case are studied using a two-layer quasi-geostrophic model on an f plane. Ring behavior is classified on an F-λ plane with other parameters fixed, where F is an internal rotational Froude number associated with a two-layer model, and λ is a ratio of the rotation speed in the lower layer to that in the upper layer. In the range concerned where F 0, the mode having an azimuthal wavenumber of 2 is the fastest growing, followed by the mode of the wavenumber 3. The ring is more unstable as F increases and as λ decreases, where larger F corresponds to smaller density difference or to a larger ring size. By numerical calculations, for which an initial perturbation of the wavenumber 2 is superimposed on a ring, ring behavior is classified into four groups from the most unstable to the most stable case: (i) a ring that splits into two small rings, (ii) a ring that rapidly becomes a slender ellipse a...
Bird predation and landscape context shape arthropod communities on broccoli

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Abstract Birds increase crop yields via consumption of pests in some contexts but disrupt pest control via intraguild predation in others. Landscape complexity acts as an inconsistent mediator, sometimes increasing, decreasing, or not impacting pest control. Here, we examined how landscape context and seasonal variation mediate the impact of birds on arthropod pests and natural enemies, leaf damage, and yields of broccoli (Brassica oleracea) on highly diversified farms that spanned the USA west coast. Our study had two complementary components: a bird exclusion experiment and molecular diet analysis of 357 fecal samples collected from the most commonly captured bird species that also foraged in Brassica fields—American Goldfinch (Spinus tristis), American Robin (Turdus migratorius), Savannah Sparrow (Passerculus sandwichensis), Song Sparrow (Melospiza melodia), and White-crowned Sparrow (Zonotrichia leucophrys). Bird access yielded higher, rather than lower, numbers of pest aphids and increased their parasitism, while no other arthropods examined were consistently impacted. Independent of bird presence, percent natural cover in the landscape sometimes increased and sometimes decreased densities of arthropods in the mid-growth period, with diminishing impacts in the late-growth period. Herbivore feeding damage to broccoli leaves decreased with increasing amounts of natural land cover and in the late-growth period. Molecular diet analysis revealed that Brassica pests and predatory arthropods were relatively uncommon prey for birds. Landscape context did not alter the prey items found in bird diets. Altogether, our bird-exclusion experiment and molecular diet analysis suggested that birds have relatively modest impacts on the arthropods associated with broccoli plantings. More broadly, the limited support in our study for net natural pest control services suggests that financial incentives may be required to encourage the adoption of bird-friendly farming practices in certain cropping systems.
A computer program to predict the consequences of current management practices in the dairy herd

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Physical and financial performance predictors for the dairy herd frequently take little or no account of current management practices, notably in respect of rebreeding. They do not anticipate the influence of unforeseen change or of increased beef bull use on the dairy herd in the longer term. The results of rebreeding management recording in 35 large dairy herds were reported at this meeting in 1983. These, and subsequent results, indicated that a decline in rebreeding management was most likely to influence annual milk sales and therefore income within no less than a 2 year period. The consequences of rebreeding management practices are long term and therefore it is essential to have the ability to look ahead to predict the likely outcome of change whether planned or unplanned. Rebreeding management influences calving pattern and any change influences feed requirements, both forage and other feeds. In addition, forage quality and quantity influence intake, the requirement for other feeds and therefore the financial performance. To take account of possible combinations of unplanned changes the computer program was developed as an extension to a program developed initially for the purpose of improving rebreeding and health management.
Pride, Politics, and Humility in Augustine’s <I>City of God</I>

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

This book is the first to interpret and reflect on Augustine's seminal argument concerning humility and pride, especially in politics and philosophy, in The City of God. Mary Keys shows how contemporary readers have much to gain from engaging Augustine's lengthy argument on behalf of virtuous humility. She also demonstrates how a deeper understanding of the classical and Christian philosophical-rhetorical modes of discourse in The City of God enables readers to appreciate and evaluate Augustine's nuanced case for humility in politics, philosophy, and religion. Comprised of a series of interpretive essays and commentaries following Augustine's own order of segments and themes in The City of God, Keys' volume unpacks the author's complex text and elucidates its challenge, meaning, and importance for contemporary readers. It also illuminates a central, yet easily underestimated theme with perennial relevance in a classic work of political thought and religion.
"Development, Characterization and Anti-Cancer Potential of 5-Fluorouracil Loaded Folate Appended Gellan Gum Nanoparticles for Breast Cancer Targeting"

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

This study explores the pharmacological investigation and anti-cancer potential of folate-modified Gellan gum nanoparticles, focusing on their impact on cancer cells through p53 activation and the inhibition of the mTOR/PI3K pathway. The nanoparticles were meticulously characterized using advanced techniques, including Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) and Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) to ensure structural integrity. Additionally, drug release kinetics, particle size, zeta potential, and entrapment efficiency were assessed to understand the formulation's physicochemical properties. Anti-cancer efficacy was evaluated through Sulforhodamine B (SRB) assay, demonstrating a significant reduction in cell viability upon exposure to the folate-modified Gellan gum nanoparticles. The p53 assay revealed an upregulation of the tumor suppressor protein, indicating activation of the intrinsic apoptotic pathway. Concurrently, the mTOR assay demonstrated inhibition of the mTOR/PI3K signaling pathway, further supporting the anti-cancer potential of the nanoparticles. Comprehensive characterization studies corroborated the efficacy findings, with NMR and FTIR confirming the successful modification of Gellan gum. The nanoparticle formulation exhibited controlled drug release, optimal particle size, desirable zeta potential, and high entrapment efficiency, collectively contributing to its potential as an effective anti-cancer agent. In conclusion, this research provides a thorough investigation into the anti-cancer potential of folate-modified Gellan gum nanoparticles. The synergy of SRB, p53, and mTOR assays, coupled with detailed characterization parameters, establishes a comprehensive understanding of the formulation's efficacy. These findings support the development of Gellan gum nanoparticles as a promising candidate for targeted cancer therapy, warranting further exploration and clinical translation.
