‘Tiles of Nicomedia’ and the Cult of Saint Panteleimon

Thousands of fragments of polychrome tiles survive from medieval Byzantium. The fifty-nine known figural tiles include representations of Christ, the archangels, apostles, and saints. The frequent representation of Panteleimon on the preserved tiles is significant to establishing Nicomedia as a major center of tile production in the Middle Byzantine period. The portrait of Panteleimon is found on works in Moscow, Baltimore and London. The chapter presents few tiles of Saint Panteleimon and his portrait was regularly included in churches, usually together with those of other physician saints. The church of St. Panteleimon was located in the suburb of Adamantios, the burial grounds to the west of the city. Panteleimon's martyrdom in Nicomedia in AD 304 and the popularity of his cult in the city and the surrounding region undoubtedly account for the frequent representation of the saint on works that were locally produced.

EIF2AK4 mutation in pulmonary veno-occlusive disease

This is the first reported case of EIF2AK4 mutation in PVOD in a Chinese patient population. We found the frameshift EIF2AK4 mutation c.1392delT (p.Arg465fs) in this case. Up to now, there has been a paucity of data on this rare disease, and the exact role of EIF2AK4 loss-of-function mutations in the pathogenesis of PVOD is still unknown. More investigations should be conducted in the future.

Electrochemical and Spectroelectrochemical Study of Polyazulene/BBL-PEO Donor–Acceptor Composite Layers

Donor−acceptor composite layers made of the electrically conducting polymers p-type polyazulene (PAz) and n-type polybenzimidazobenzophenanthroline-poly(ethyleneoxide) (BBL-PEO) were studied. The water dispersible BBLPEO was solution-cast on PAz electropolymerized on Pt or ITO glass electrodes or on the bare electrode surfaces. The doping behavior within both the n- and p-doping potential regions was studied by cyclic voltammetry and in situ spectroelectrochemical techniques: UV−visible and FTIR-ATR spectroscopy. All of the results showed contributions from both polymers in the composites, besides the spectral behaviors in the n-doping potential region were mainly controlled by BBL-PEO and in the p-doping region by PAz. Rather stable donor composites with the formation of charge carriers in both n- and p-doping regions were formed. In the BBL-PEO/PAz composite PAz was found to have a higher promoting effect on the formation of charge carriers than in the PAz/BBL-PEO composite. The composites stayed conducting within a broad negative potential region while some charges appeared to be trapped in the layers after the negative potential scan.

[Treatment results with isoglaucon eye drops in sympatheticotone patients with early appearing primary glaucoma (author's transl)].

The sympatholytic substance Clonidin (Isoglaucon) that lowers the intraocular pressure as well as the general blood pressure was tested on a small but homogenous group of patients. This group consisted of 11 middle aged male patients with wide angle glaucoma, elevated blood pressure and sympathicotonia. The intraocular pressure was well controlled in 9 of these, and sufficiently lowered in the remaining two. At the same time the general blood pressure was consistently lowered to some extent and the sympathicotonia improved.

Reduced critical processes for small populations

Let $\left\{ Z(n),n\geq 1\right\} $ be a critical Galton-Watson branching process with finite variance for the offspring size of particles. Assuming that $00$ or $φ(n)=o(n)$ as $n\rightarrow \infty $, we study the structure of the process $% \left\{ Z(m,n),0\leq m\leq n\right\} ,$ where $Z(m,n)$ is the number of particles in the process at moment $m\leq n$ having a positive number of descendants at moment $n$.

KINETIC AND WESTERN BLOT ANALYSES OF EXERCISE TRAINING ENHANCED CANINE MYOCARDIAL ENZYMES 1287

We recently demonstrated (Med Sci Sports Exerc.28: S60, 1996) that aerobic exercise training increases activities of several glycolytic and oxidative enzymes in canine left ventricular myocardium. These metabolic adaptations could result from expression of isoforms with higher substrate affinities. i.e. lower Kms than the adult phenotypes, or, alternatively, from increased expression of adult isoforms, where maximum activity (Vmax) is increased but Km is unchanged. To differentiate between these two alternatives, we analyzed kinetics of training-enhanced (GAPDH: glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase; CS: citrate synthase; HADH: 3-hydroxyacyl CoA dehydrogenase) and unaltered (LDH: lactate dehydrogenase) enzymes. Mongrel canines completed a 9 wk running program or were cage-rested for 4 wk. Myocardial enzymes were extracted and assayed at 38°C. Km and Vmax were determined from Lineweaver-Burk analyses. Data (Km: μM; Vmax:U · mg protein-1) are means ± SE, n = 6 (*: P<0.05vs. Sedentary). Table Increased Vmax and unchanged Km following training indicated levels of adult CS, GAPDH, and HADH isoforms. This was confirmed by Western blot, which demonstrated a 3.2-fold increase (P = 0.003) of GAPDH content. Thus, training enhancement of cardiac enzymes is due to increased expression of adult phenotypes.

Hormonal Contraceptive Use, Menstrual Dysfunctions, and Self-Reported Side Effects in Elite Athletes in Denmark

Objective : To identify the prevalence of hormonal contraceptive (HC) use, menstrual cycle disturbances, and self-perceived physical and emotional symptoms related to the menstrual cycle/pill cycle in elite female athletes. Methods : One hundred eighty-six Danish elite female athletes completed an online questionnaire to assess menstrual status and history, use of HCs, and self-perceived physical and emotional symptoms related to the menstrual cycle or HC use. Results : Fifty-seven percent of elite female athletes in Denmark use HC, with 74% using combined HCs and 26% using progestin only. Sixty percent of oral contraceptive users reported having manipulated their menstrual cycle by continuous oral contraceptive use. Forty-nine percent of non-HC users had a regular menstrual cycle, while 51% experienced menstrual disturbances, with 1 athlete being primary amenorrheic and 13 athletes having secondary amenorrhea. Menstrual disturbances were experienced by a larger proportion of endurance athletes (69%) compared with athletes performing power and technical disciplines. In endurance athletes amenorrhea was associated with a higher cardiovascular training volume ( P &lt; .001). Negative symptoms related to the menstrual/pill cycle were reported by both HC and non-HC users, whereas positive physical symptoms were experienced more often among the non-HC (14%) versus HC users (2%) ( P &lt; .01). Notably, 13% of the athletes reported that negative symptoms sometimes/always caused them to not participate in or complete the scheduled training. Conclusion : HC use is common among elite athletes, and continuation of HC is used to manipulate the menstrual cycle in relation to sport competitions. HC use does not abolish dysmenorrhea, but it may reduce emotional-related side effects. Menstrual disturbances are frequent in endurance athletes and are associated with cardiovascular training volume.

A challenge for the Romanian management companies - The communication specialist

In this paper, the authors’ goal was to analyze the importance of managerial communication in Hunedoara county companies. The authors carry out a research using the survey method through a short questionnaire, ensuring that it does not take more than 5 minutes for the respondents to complete. The questionnaire was composed of 14 questions, was distributed online and applied to a group of over 500 companies from Hunedoara County, between 13th September 2020 and 30th September 2020. The authors received 34 answers, and these answers consist the basis of the research. The authors were interested in whether there are managerial communication procedures at the company level, and also, they have focused on the characteristics of managerial communication in these companies. They analyzed if in these companies it is used a task-centered or a human-centered communication, whether the communication used is formal or informal, or what method of communication is mainly used - bottom-up or top-down. Even if the present research was limited to the borders of Hunedoara county, the authors demonstrate the necessity of the existence of communication specialists especially in the area of organization management.

VALIDATION OF INAPPROPRIATE LEFT VENTRICULAR MASS DEFINED BY AMBULATORY SYSTOLIC BLOOD PRESSURE IN MULTICENTER REGISTRY STUDY DATABASE

Objective: Inappropriately high left ventricular mass (LVM) (ihLVM) was reported to be risk marker for cardiovascular event regardless of the presence of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). But the prediction of LVM is limited by inaccurate calculation of stroke work (SW) using casual systolic blood pressure (SBP). We proposed revised prediction equation using ambulatory SBP to calculate SW which has not been validated. Design and method: For 1177 subjects among Korean ABPM registry in whom echocardiography data are available, observed/predicted ratios of LVM (OPR-LVM) was compared between the old method using casual SBP and revised method using Ambulatory SBP. LVM was calculated using Devereux equation. Predicted LVM was calculated by old method; 54.9 + 0.67*SW + 7.62 x height^2.7 −13.2 x sex and 43.11 + 0.61 x SW + 9.21 x height^2.7–13.99 x sex (male = 1, female = 2). Results: Age was 55.5 ± 14.2 and female was 48%. Casual SBP was 142.8 ± 20.5 mmHg and Ambulatory SBP was 135.4 ± 15.6 mmHg. BMI was 24.7 ± 3.2 and metabolic syndrome (MetS) was noted in 32.1%. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 88.8 ml/min/1.72m2 and clinical cardiovascular diseases were noted in 30.1%. For normal, ihLVM, appropriate (a) LVH, and ihLVH, 56.6%, 1.5%, 27.4%, and 14.5% in old method and 51.7%, 6.37%, 14.7%, and 27.2% for revised method (p < 0.0001). In stepwise multivariable regression analysis for OPR by revised method, age (beta = 0.072, p = 0.0002) and MetS (beta = 1.245, p = 0.0323) was significant in addition to OPR by old method. In untreated subjects(n = 751), age (beta = 0.067, p = 0.008) and MetS (beta = 3.214, p < 0.0001) were significant for higher OPR by revised method. But in treated subjects (n = 426), MetS (beta = −2.421, p = 0.0025) and eGFR (beta = −0.063, p = 0.0025) were significant. Conclusions: Compared with revised method, underestimation of OPR in untreated subject and overestimation of OPR by old method were related to MetS and age or eGFR. Because these factors are closely related to the BP and LVM, clinical value of OPR by revised method needs prospective study.

Why and how to drain a sinus

The main reason for draining a sinus is removal of pus in subacute or chronic maxillary sinusitis. A sinus wash is also useful for diagnosis. I recommend the anterior maxillary sinus puncture because it is the easiest technique to perform and master.

A case of hypocomplementaemic urticarial vasculitis in a child due to coxsackievirus type A9

Introduction: We present a rare case of hypocomplementaemic urticarial vasculitis in a 1‐year‐old girl with a coxsackievirus type A9 (CA9) infection. Case presentation: At first, we thought that the patient had Kawasaki disease, but a skin biopsy showed overriding evidence of urticarial vasculitis and serum complement levels were severely reduced. Treatment with prednisolone was effective. We isolated and confirmed CA9 from all samples (nasal fluid, serum and stool). We also analysed CA9 genetically. Conclusion: CA9 may induce systemic small‐vessel vasculitis resulting in transient decreases in complements.

Paul’s Metaphorical Soteriology: Galatians as a Test Case

This study investigates Pauline soteriological language, specifically the variety of metaphors used to interpret salvation, taking Galatians as a test case. The first section begins with an analysis of contemporary “metaphormania” and the lack of consensus on the definition of metaphor, leading to an outline of the development of the concepts of imagery and metaphor for Pauline studies. The second section evaluates metaphor theory together with the paradigm shift in the post-Ricoeur era. In the third part the author examines the plurality of soteriological metaphors, showing their mutual interaction and coherence in the epistle to the Galatians. In the fourth part this is documented with two metaphors, sonship and freedom. The proposed network of metaphors model, with its own inner logic, is offered as an alternative to the traditional search for a “centre” within Paul’s soteriology/theology and also as an alternative to the reductionist tendency to favour one metaphor above others in an individual letter without solid textual support.,

Influence of GBV-C infection on the endogenous activation of the IFN system in HIV-1 co-infected patients.

Enhanced activation of the interferon system occurs in GBV-C-positive, as compared to GBV-C-negative patients harbouring HIV-1. These data may be relevant to understand the GBV-C-driven protection against HIV, suggesting that the endogenous activation of the interferon system can contribute to the control of HIV replication.

The effect of spatial dynamics on the behaviour of an environmentally transmitted disease

Understanding the spread of pathogens through the environment is critical to a fuller comprehension of disease dynamics. However, many mathematical models of disease dynamics ignore spatial effects. We seek to expand knowledge around the interaction between the bare-nosed wombat (<i>Vombatus ursinus</i>) and sarcoptic mange (etiologic agent <i>Sarcoptes scabiei</i>), by extending an aspatial mathematical model to include spatial variation. <i>S. scabiei</i> was found to move through our modelled region as a spatio-temporal travelling wave, leaving behind pockets of localized host extinction, consistent with field observations. The speed of infection spread was also comparable with field research. Our model predicts that the inclusion of spatial dynamics leads to the survival and recovery of affected wombat populations when an aspatial model predicts extinction. Collectively, this research demonstrates how environmentally transmitted <i>S. scabiei</i> can result in travelling wave dynamics, and that inclusion of spatial variation reveals a more resilient host population than aspatial modelling approaches.

The Federal Role in Education and the Rise of Social Science Research

Studies of the rise of social science research in education typically focus on the Progressive Era, from 1890 to 1930, the period in which the American Educational Research Association (AERA) was founded. As central as this story is to the intellectual history of education as a field, however, it obscures an earlier set of events that arguably is even more important to understanding why AERA and the larger progressive education research enterprise of which it was a part developed when and how they did. That episode was the major but ultimately failed effort of the 1870s and 1880s to establish a national education system in the United States. This chapter focuses on the use of social science research in this earlier episode of education reform. It reveals how the rise of education research during the Progressive Era, and ultimately the founding of AERA, responded to the failure of this earlier effort in multiple ways. More precisely, it shows how social science research in education developed historically in relation to the peculiarly decentralized and racialized structure of education authority and policy in the United States.

Immune response of fasted calves to infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus.

Seventeen calves (Angus, Hereford, and Angus-Hereford crosses) weighing 120-200 kg, were starved for 3 days and inoculated intranasally with a strain of IBR virus after 1 day or 3 days of food deprivation. Although clinical signs of disease were mild in all calves, the signs appeared more severe than those reported by others using the same strain of virus possibly due in part to the use of intranasal inoculation by aerosol vs instillation. Neutralizing antibody response after virus inoculation did not differ beween groups. Of the 17 calves, 16 developed significant increases (seroconversion of 4-fold increase in titre) in IBR serum antibodies. Serum neutralizing antibodies in 3 calves at inoculation did not prevent them from excreting substantial amounts of virus for ? 5 days after virus inoculation. Lymphocytes from fasted and nonfasted calves had similar (essentially negative) blast transformation responses, except 1 fasted seropositive calf (sensitised animal) that had a high stimulation index. Some dehydration was observed in fasted calves, indicated by significant increase in haematocrit. In only 1 group did serum cortisol levels rise significantly, mean values peaking at the end of fasting at the time of inoculation; thereafter, mean values tended to decline. Although the 3-day fast significantly affected some serum and blood components, it did not adversely affect the immune response of calves. One fasted calf developed a significant cell mediated immune response to inactivated IBR virus during infection. It is concluded that acute nutritional deprivation may not necessarily increase the susceptibility of calves to viral infections nor adversely affect their immune response after vaccination.&#x0D; This report represents a portion of a dissertation submitted by the senior author to the graduate faculty of the University of Missouri in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the PhD degree.&#x0D; The authors thank Gary Krause and Mark Ellersieck for aid in statistical analysis and Gerald Buening for help in lymphocyte transformation tests.
