Passing Grace and Seized Microphones (1967–1969)

Abstract In response to the racial unrest that erupted across the United States in the summer of 1967, presiding bishop John E. Hines persuaded Episcopalians to adopt what became known as the General Convention Special Program (GCSP). This program sought to confront the pervasive inequalities of American life by providing empowerment grants to minority community groups with “no strings attached.” The program’s administration soon alienated black clergy, though, and it failed to inspire the white congregations upon which it depended. The gulf between the church’s liberal leadership and more traditionalist laity continued to widen during these years, further exacerbated by the number of clergy speaking out against the Vietnam War. Matters came to a head at the Special General Convention in September 1969, when proponents of the Black Manifesto demanded the Episcopalians pay reparations for slavery. Unhappy and divided, the Episcopal Church struggled with a loss of members, money, and focus.

Relationship of carbonic anhydrase Ⅱ gene polymorphism with primary open angle glaucoma genetic susceptibility

AIM:To analyze the relationship of carbonic anhydrase Ⅱ gene polymorphism with primary open angle glaucoma genetic susceptibility. METHODS:From January 2012 to December 2014, 50 cases in our hospital for treatment of primary open angle glaucoma(study group)and 50 cases in outpatient department of our hospital for health examination(control group)were tested. The conventional elbow venous blood was taken. The use of polymerase chain reaction(PCR)and restriction fragment length polymorphism test were used to detect the characteristics of carbonic anhydrase Ⅱ gene polymorphism. RESULTS:The locus site of rs3758078 and rs10504813 of the two groups were in line with Hardy - Weinberg equilibrium law(Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium).The results displayed in rs10504813 site, the difference of genotype frequencies between the two groups was not statistically significant(<i>P</i>>0.05). But the difference in allele frequencies between the two groups was statistical significance(<i>P</i><0.05). The differences of locus genotype and allele frequencies between the two groups in rs3758078 had no statistical significance(<i>P</i>>0.05). After the carbonic anhydrase Ⅱ polymorphism haplotype analysis in the two groups, TAC(Tracking area code of cell served by neighbor Enb)haplotype carriers appeared lawer risk of primary open-angle glaucoma. CONCLUSION:There is certain relation between the polymorphism and the risk of carbonic anhydrase primary open-angle glaucoma, and rs3758078 locus balance may be the main reason for low risk; TAC haplotype carriers appear lower risk of primary open angle glaucoma.

Transcription–translation coupling: Recent advances and future perspectives

Abstract The flow of genetic information from the chromosome to protein in all living organisms consists of two steps: (1) copying information coded in DNA into an mRNA intermediate via transcription by RNA polymerase, followed by (2) translation of this mRNA into a polypeptide by the ribosome. Unlike eukaryotes, where transcription and translation are separated by a nuclear envelope, in bacterial cells, these two processes occur within the same compartment. This means that a pioneering ribosome starts translation on nascent mRNA that is still being actively transcribed by RNA polymerase. This tethering via mRNA is referred to as ‘coupling’ of transcription and translation (CTT). CTT raises many questions regarding physical interactions and potential mutual regulation between these large (ribosome is ~2.5 MDa and RNA polymerase is 0.5 MDa) and powerful molecular machines. Accordingly, we will discuss some recently discovered structural and functional aspects of CTT.

Transcutaneous Monitoring of Carbon Dioxide Tension After Cardiothoracic Surgery in Infants and Children

In this prospective investigation, we evaluated the efficacy and accuracy of transcutaneous monitoring of CO2 (TC-CO2) in infants and children after cardiothoracic surgery. Cardiothoracic surgery patients whose ETCO2 and arterial CO2 values did not correlate (gradient >or=to5 mm Hg) during the first postoperative hour underwent placement of the TC electrode (30 of 33 patients). If the TC-CO2 to arterial difference was >or=to5 mm Hg, the TC-CO2 electrode was recalibrated and reapplied on another site. If the discrepancy was still >or=to5 mm Hg, the case was considered a clinical failure and no further data were collected (3 of 30 patients). If the arterial to TC gradient was <5 mm Hg, the patient was included in the data collection (27 of 30 patients). One to five sample sets (TC and arterial CO2) were collected from these patients. Statistical analysis included linear regression analysis and Bland-Altman analysis. The cohort for the study included 27 patients ranging in age from 2 days to 9 yr and in weight from 3.2 to 25 kg. A total of 101 sample sets were analyzed. The mean +/- SD absolute difference between the TC-CO (2) and arterial CO2 was 1.7 +/- 1.4 mm Hg (range 0-9 mm Hg). The TC-CO2 to arterial CO2 difference was 0-2 mm Hg in 82 of 101 values (81%), 3-5 mm Hg in 18 of 101 values (18%), and >6 mm Hg in 1 of 101 values (1%). Linear regression analysis revealed a slope of 0.90, an r value of 0.9410, and an r2 value of 0.8854 (P < 0.0001). Bland-Altman analysis revealed a bias of 0.58 mm Hg with a precision of +/- 2.1 mm Hg when comparing the TC-CO2 with the arterial CO2. Implications: We conclude that, with certain caveats in mind, including the need to correlate the transcutaneous CO2 with an initial arterial CO2 value, transcutaneous CO (2) monitoring can be used to estimate arterial CO2 in most neonates and children after cardiothoracic surgery.

Researching Young People’s Sexualized Digital Practices Involving Imagery:

Young people constitute and negotiate their gendered identities and belonging, as well as their romantic and erotic relationships, through sexualized digital practices involving imagery. Most of these practices are unproblematic, but sometimes they take forms that are more abusive and lead to (particularly) girls being visually exposed online. Such practices are commonly referred to as sexting or revenge pornography and have been subject to much discussion in research, in the media and among practitioners. These discussions, however, sometimes fail to acknowledge the diversity, volatility and ambiguity of the practices. This article discusses whether the approaches used in research on young people’s sexualized digital practices involving imagery are sufficiently refined and sensitive in order to grasp comprehensive complexity and messy constitutions of such practices. Based on analyses of the studies’ conceptualizations, perspectives and methods, I suggest that future research production might benefit from a more transgressive and flexible approach that learns from the full array of approaches in the previous studies and takes the instability and multiplicity of young people’s practices into account. Such an approach should entail an openness towards ambiguous conceptualizations, a more processual perspective that includes both individual, social and technological aspects and the use of multiple explorative methods across on- and offline spaces.

Inosin‐N(1)‐oxid‐Nucleotide als Komplexbildner II. Aciditätskonstanten von Inosin‐N(1)‐oxid und von dessen 5′‐Monophosphat

Abstract A method is derived for the determination of acidity constants of ligands with two non‐identical acidic groups of similar acidity for the case of no interaction between these two groups. By this method the acidity constants of inosine‐5′‐monophosphate N(1)‐oxide are found to be p K = 5,43 and p K = 6,31. Spectrophotometric investigations show that p K belongs to the o ‐hydroxy‐N‐oxide group. Therefore p K must be the acidity constant of the phosphate group. For comparison, the acidity constant of inosine N(1)‐oxide (p K A = 5,40) has also been determined.

[Trigeminal neuralgia and tumors of the cerebellopontile angle].

In the last 10 years from 1972 to 1981 one hundred patients with trigeminal neuralgia were treated. The routine surgical treatment included Dandy's operation in microsurgical modification. In 8 cases cerebellopontine angle tumours were unexpectedly found, and were accepted as the cause of trigeminal neuralgia. In 8 cases neither clinical examination nor radiological investigations gave any suggestions of a tumour as the cause of neuralgia before the operation, although the tumours had from 1 to 5 cm in diameter. The tumours were: cholesteatoma in 4 cases, acoustic neurinoma in 2 cases, meningioma in 2 cases. After a survey of the pertinent literature the author discusses the clinical differences between supratentorial and infratentorial tumours causing trigeminal neuralgia reaching the conclusion that trigeminal neuralgia may be a sign of mainly posterior fossa tumours, with the exception of trigeminal neurinomas which nearly never produce typical trigeminal neuralgia.

Application of a new in silico strategy to evidencing the role of missense mutations properties in determining Hemophilia A

Hemophilia A (HA) consists of a genetic X-linked blood disorder. It is caused by a diversity of F8 gene mutations, with missense type being the most prevalent. Amino acid substitutions may impact physicochemical properties of the protein, providing an abundant scenario for investigation. This work evaluates 71 substitutions contributing to distinct patients’ phenotypes (mild, moderate, and severe), in terms of physicochemical alterations (PA - electrostatic potential, hydrophobicity, surface solvent-accessible/excluded areas, disulfide disruptions, and substitutions indexes), through an in silico strategy. PA information extracted from models fuels a hierarchical clustering analysis (HCA - independently and in combination) in an attempt to connect mutations and patients’ phenotypes. The combined use of PA over the analysis of single features seems to better reflect the impact of substitutions in severity degree, apparently in a domain-dependent way. Besides, a principal component analysis (PCA) identified prominent properties impacting clustering results for each domain. Electrostatic potential has a greater contribution to A3 than C1 domain clustering, probably by A3 involvement in FVIII activation, for example. The conjugated use of HCA and PCA is a powerful tool to assess if and what kind of structural features are involved in FVIII protein functionality impact and HA disease severity.

Jesus, history and the gospels

This article considers the reasons why modern scholars have felt the need to go behind the four Gospels and search for the historical Jesus. After a short discussion on methodology, especially the criteria used to detect the earliest and most reliable traditions about Jesus, a number of recent proposals are discussed: Jesus as Jewish restoration prophet; Jesus as Galilean rabbi; Jesus as subversive reformer; Jesus as Jewish messiah. This diversity might suggest that the whole enterprise is misguided but there are positive gains for the Church, not least the recovery of the Jewishness of Jesus.

SERUM LEVELS OF DEHYDROEPIANDROSTERONE SULPHATE AND TOTAL ESTRONE IN POSTMENOPAUSAL WOMEN WITH SPECIAL REGARD TO ‘NON‐ENDOCRINE’ OVARIAN CARCINOMA

Abstract. Postmenopausal women with ‘non‐endocrine’ ovarian cancer have previously been reported to have elevated levels of estrogens, androstenedione and progesterone (1, 2, 3, 4). A contribution from the tumor‐affected ovary to the elevated steroid levels seems evident (1, 4), though the underlying mechanisms are obscure. After the menopause estrogens are normally formed by peripheral conversion of adrenal androgens, and ovarian function is of little significance. Tuimala et al (2) suggested conversion of adrenal precursors by the tumor tissue as an alternative explanation for the elevated estrogen levels in postmenopausal women with ovarian cancer. If this is so, the levels of adrenal androgens may be important. The weak androgen dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate (DHAS) is of an exclusive adrenal origin and is considered to be the best indicator of adrenal androgen secretion. In order to study a possible relationship between adrenal activity and postmenopausal ‘non‐endocrine’ ovarian cancer, we determined the peripheral serum levels of DHAS and total estrone in postmenopausal women with this disease and in strictly age‐matched healthy controls.

The dignity of persons : Kantian ethics and utilitarianism

This work is an attempt to develop a general ethical framework, the product of the synthesis of Kantian ethics and Utilitarianism, giving us a basic account of the dignity of persons and the structure of the moral community. There is a Kantian doctrine of human dignity, and an associated conception of the nature of morality, which together should be taken to provide the basic conceptual framework in ethical theory. However, the conception of morality implicated in the Kantian story recognises not only the dignity of human beings as moral subjects, but also the dignity (the special moral standing) of all sentient beings, who therefore count as persons for moral purposes. This is shown to be the case by means of an argument for Utilitarianism (taken as a technical view in philosophy) being consistent with the basic Kantian framework already in place, argument that involves disassociating Utilitarianism from both Consequentialism and Welfarism and construing it as an Agapist doctrine (i.e. as a philosophy of practical love or rationally-based benevolence).

Intestinal barrier function in the naked mole-rat: an emergent model for gastrointestinal insights

This is the first study to characterize the intestinal function of naked mole-rats. We found that these animals show a robust gut tissue structure, displaying thicker intestinal layers, longer villi, and larger crypts. Naked mole-rats showed more and larger goblet cells, with increased mucus content. Intestinal permeability, especially in the ileum, was substantially lower than that of mice. Finally, naked mole-rats showed reduced intestinal anion secretion in response to serotonin, bradykinin, histamine, capsaicin, and forskolin.

Spatial Transferability of the Albatross Model System: Empirical Evidence from Two Case Studies

Results of a test of the spatial transferability of Albatross are reported. Albatross is a rule-based model for predicting transportation demand developed for the Dutch Ministry of Transport, Public Works, and Water Management. The test first uses the choice rules extracted from data pertaining to Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht to predict activity–travel patterns in Voorhout and Apeldoorn and then assesses the correspondence between observed and predicted activity–travel patterns in the latter municipalities. Results of this test indicate that the spatial transferability of the model is satisfactory.

[The oldest data on nationality in our country].

The author discusses the beginning of the systematic collection of data on nationalities and linguistic groups in Czechoslovakia during the eighteenth century. The collection of this type of data was a result of two factors: the need for topographic data by secular and ecclesiastic authorities and the general growth of scientific research. The different types of data collected are also examined. Topographic materials generally dealt with the ethnicity of individual places, while scientific studies focused on global data on nationalities.

No System of Justice: At the Margins with Toni Morrison’s Intertextual Characters

“No System of Justice: At the Margins with Toni Morrison’s Intertextual Characters,” reads Morrison’s novel through the lens of her first novel, <italic>The Bluest Eye</italic>, in which a young mother cannot love the daughter she finds “ugly.” Eaton argues that ugliness becomes a code word for, particularly the blackness of very dark-skinned African Americans. Throughout her eleven novels, Morrison never wavers in her conviction that a formal justice system cannot heal the traumas of mothers and children torn apart by slavery, Jim Crow, endemic racism, and internalized racial self-hatred. Morrison employs intertextual characters between novels, including Pecola and Lula Ann, that emphasize her disdain for formal justice and her fascination with characters existing in extra-narrative spaces. Eaton explores Morrison’s rejection of institutional justice through the lens of lawyer/theorist Patricia J. Williams, as well as through Morrison’s essays on the Anita Hill/Clarence Thomas hearings and on the O.J. Simpson trial.
