Oenothera: Contributions of a Plant to Biology

Because of the great variety of problems which this genus presents to biologists, "Oenothera" belongs to the best-known genera of plants not used economically. This book summarizes today's knowledge of "Oenothera's" genetics and related fields like caryology and cytogenetics. It is further of great value for all those whose research topics are based on genetics, such as developmental and evolutionary biology.
A Clinical study on hypertensive emergencies

The clinical profile of patients with hypertensive emergencies presenting to hospitals in a developing country like ours is poorly known. 
The objective of the present study was to evaluate the modes of presentations, clinical profile and spectrum of target organ damage in patients with hypertensive emergencies. 
METHOD : 
This descriptive study was done at Coimbatore Medical College over the period of one and half years. 
The study population included patients admitted in this hospital with severely elevated blood pressure with clinical or laboratory evidence of acute target organ damage. The clinical and laboratory profile of 50 of these patients were evaluated. 
 
Males had higher chances of developing a hypertensive 
emergency compared to females. The commonest presenting symptoms were chestpain and dyspnoea, neurological deficit. Majority of the patients were known hypertensives. Higher levels of blood pressure at presentation were associated with an adverse outcome. Acute LVF was the commonest target organ damage observed. An in hospital mortality of 12% was observed in the present study. 
 
Known hypertensive are at a higher risk of presenting with acute target organ damage associated with a chestpain. Acute LVF is the commonest form of target organ damage encountered in the present study.
: A Group Theoretic Model for Symmetric Interconnection Networks

The authors develop a formal group-theoretic model, called the Cayley graph model, for designing, analyzing, and improving such networks. They show that this model is universal and demonstrate how interconnection networks can be concisely represented in this model. It is shown that this model enables the authors to design networks based on representations of finite groups. They can then analyze these networks by interpreting the group-theoretic structure graph theoretically, Using these ideas, and motivated by certain well-known combinatorial problems, they develop two classes of networks called star graphs and pancake graphs. These networks are shown to have better performance than previous networks.
Erratum to: Marker utility of transposable elements for plant genetics, breeding, and ecology: a review

Variation is the primary source for plant and animal breeding and evolution, and hence, the detection of variation is an integral part of genetics, breeding, and ecology. Various molecular marker systems have been developed to detect genetic variation. They detect sequence variations (e.g., restriction fragment length polymorphism, randomly amplified polymorphic DNA, amplified fragment length polymorphism) or simple sequence motif variations. However, a large portion of genomic variation is derived from the transposition of transposable elements (TEs), which are major denizens of most eukaryote genomes. Therefore, molecular markers derived from TEs are valuable resources for dissecting genomes in plants and animals. Because class I retrotransposons transpose by a “copy-and-paste” semi-conservative manner, retrotransposon-based markers (e.g., Inter-retrotransposon amplified polymorphism, retrotransposon-microsatellite amplified polymorphism, sequence-specific amplified polymorphism) can reveal highly accurate phylogenetic relationships among related taxa as well as among accessions within a species. Transposon display based on class II DNA transposons has also been used in various genetics fields. A large amount of fairly accurate genome sequences are now being generated, and computational biology allows us to mine the TEs on a genome-wide scale. Thus, TE-based molecular markers are adding another venue to the other marker systems used for the molecular dissection of genomes.

THE MESO-NEOPROTEROZOIC TECTONO-STRATIGRAPHIC DIVISION ON THE EPICONTINENTAL MOBILE BELT IN NORTHERN LIAONING PROVINCE

There exists a series of Meso-Neoproterozoic tectonic melanges and o phiolitic melanges in Jianping-Fuxin-Tieling area of northern Liaoning Provinc e. Their original rocks are volcanic rocks,epicontinental clastic sedimentary ro cks, and ophiolite of volcanic and island arc tholeiitic series or calcium alkal i series. The rocks coexist closely, distributing in a narrow and long belt in t he Late Precambrian orogenic belt in northern Liaoning. The rock series could be subdivided into Weijiagou rock group and Kaiyuan rock group (including Shenjiap uzi rock formation, Zhaobeishan rock formation and Banshigou rock formation).
Periodontal disease and control of diabetes mellitus.

Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention indicate that more than 20 million people (approximately 7% of the population) in the United States have diabetes mellitus. Physicians often fail to examine the mouths and teeth of their patients, even though the condition of the mouth and teeth have clinical relevance for the treatment of patients with diabetes mellitus. The authors examine the current state of knowledge regarding periodontal disease and the effect of periodontal disease on worsening of glycemic control. They review several studies investigating how the management of periodontal disease affects the ability of patients to control symptoms of diabetes mellitus. The authors conclude with several recommendations for the treatment of patients with periodontal disease to improve glycemic control.
Cobalt(III), a probe of metal binding sites of Escherichia coli alkaline phosphatase.

To facilitate the study of individual metal binding sites of polymeric metalloproteins, conversion of exchange-labile Co(II) in E. coli alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1) to exchange-inert Co(III) was examined. Oxidation of Co(II) alkaline phosphatase with hydrogen peroxide results in a single absorption maximum at 530 nm and loss both of the characteristic electron paramagnetic signal and of enzymatic activity. Zinc neither reactivates this enzyme nor displaces the oxidized cobalt atoms. Metal and amino-acid analyses demonstrate that oxidation alters neither cobalt binding nor amino-acid composition of the enzyme. Al data are consistent with the conclusion that hydrogen peroxide oxidizes Co(II) in alkaline phosphatase to Co(III). Polymeric metalloenzymes can contain different categories of metal atoms serving in catalysis, structure stabilization, and/or control and exerting their effects independently or interdependently. The in situ conversion of exchange-labile Co(II) to exchange-stable (Co(III) offers a method to selectively and differentially "freeze" cobalt atoms at their respective binding sites. The accompanying spectral changes and concomitant retardation in ligand exchange reactions may be used to differentiate between specific metal binding sites that serve different roles in polymeric metalloenzymes.
Why Don't Our Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Listen to Us? The Enigma of Nonadherence.

Nonadherence--not taking pharmacologic or nonpharmacologic treatments according to agreed recommendations from a health care provider--is common in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Nonadherence in taking maintenance medications, smoking cessation, maintaining regular physical activity and exercise, starting and staying in pulmonary rehabilitation and continuing on with the postrehabilitation exercise/activity prescription, and successfully following self-management directions results in adverse outcomes across multiple areas. These include a faster decline in airway function, higher symptom burden, impaired health status, and increased health care use and mortality risk. Although nonadherence can also occur in health care providers (not following established treatment guidelines), this perspective focuses on patient nonadherence. Factors such as social/economic, health system, therapy-related, patient-related, and condition-related factors all impact this problem. To improve patient adherence, we need to consider these factors in the context of people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and implement strategies directly targeting underlying issues. Strategies may include customizing and simplifying learning and intervention regimes, identifying barriers to adherence and addressing them, ensuring patient support structures are in place, and improving self-efficacy. Future directions should focus on research and development in educational design; use of technology to assist education; psychological intervention strategies to support learning, motivation, self-efficacy and behavior change; and ways to improve healthcare providers' engagement with patients.
Commentary: Sense and sensibility: the role of specialists in health care reform.

How to redesign the incentives structure in the United States to reward effective coordinated care rather than production volume is a staggering public health policy challenge. In the mind of the public, there is a fine distinction between health care rationing and rational health care. Specialists have a vital but underappreciated role in reining in health care costs, but specific incentives to elicit behavior change with positive social outcomes remain ambiguous. It is imperative, therefore, that redesigning the incentives structure is thoughtfully considered, modeled, and tested prior to implementation, lest an inferior-quality model is inadvertently adopted and costs are only marginally contained. Quality metrics need to be universal and reflect real patient outcomes instead of the degree of investment by the institution in the reporting tools. Still, specialists should take immediate action to implement safe and efficient procedures and to assess their long-term impact on patients' quality of life. Scientific evaluations should guide both the assessment of the appropriateness and the safe delivery of care. Investment in high-quality data architecture and the science of health delivery implementation is an imperative if health care reform is to achieve its goals. Coordination and collaboration between specialists and primary care physicians is essential to this enterprise. Specialists can champion these efforts as they pertain to their areas of expertise by considering their care episodes in the context of the patient as a whole, working closely with generalists, and returning to the mindset of the specialist as a family doctor.
Quantum Mechanics of Geometry

Over the past six years, a detailed framework has been constructed to unravel the quantum nature of the Riemannian geometry of physical space. A review of these developments is presented at a level which should be accessible to graduate students in physics. As an illustrative application, I indicate how some of the detailed features of the microstructure of geometry can be tested using black hole thermodynamics. Current and future directions of research in this area are discussed.
Engineering Self-organising Systems

Nowadays applications are becoming more and more complex, and multi-agent systems are proven an efficient paradigm for implementing this complexity, especially when self-organisation principles are applied. However, designing such self-organising systems becomes an issue: even if many agent-oriented methodologies are provided for developing multi-agent systems, only a few are interested in helping designers when applying self-organisation and emergence principles. This chapter aims at expounding some of them with a special focus on the more mature one, ADELFE.
Voltaire et la Chine

The thesis is carried out in two parts. In the first part, we have examined in voltaire's works the presence of china within various fields : history and antiquity, society, politics, religion, philosophy, science, arts and literature ; hence, we have tried to justify the gap between factual china and voltaire's image of china. The second part entitled : " research and comment " contains a chronological study of voltaire's works on china, an investigation about his sources concerning the middle kingdom, and lastly, an attempt at understanding the author's interest in china, namely its philosophical importance and the material benefits to be derived through commercial ties. This historical, philosophical, bibliographic, biographical, chronological and psychological study based on voltaire's complete works and correspondence enables us to understand better the use made of the chinese myth during the age of enlightenment by our author.
Synthesis and phase separation of (Ti,Zr)C

Synthesis and phase separation of (Ti,Zr)C were investigated in the present work. The (Ti,Zr)C phase was synthesized at 2200 °C and subsequently aged at 1300 °C for different times. The microstructure was investigated using X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy, and supplemented by first-principles calculations. The (Ti,Zr)C phase separates into a lamellar nanostructure with alternating Ti- and Zr-rich face-centered cubic domains as well as non-stoichiometric TiC and ZrC. The lamellar structure is a consequence of phase separation within the miscibility gap that is directionally constrained by high coherency stresses, as indicated by the first-principles calculations. Moreover, the increased hardness due to the phase separation suggests that the mixed carbide could be used as a strengthening constituent in, for example, cemented carbides.
Performance evaluation of a mathematical formula recognition system with a large scale of printed formula images

This paper shows the performance evaluation of the mathematical formula recognition system applied to a large scale of printed formula images, which has been developed in our laboratory. Our laboratory has collaborated with Michler of University of Essen, Germany, on project of "Retro-digitalization of mathematical journals, and their integration searchable digital libraries". In this project, two kinds of mathematical journals were scanned for digitalization. In this process, we cut out formulas manually from many pages, and created the answer database, "Ground-Truth." We report the results of performance evaluation with respect to the recognition of symbols, various types of sub-expressions and whole expressions of mathematical formulas
The Teaching Scholars Program: a proposed approach for promoting research integrity.

All research environments are not created equal. They possess their own unique communication style, culture, and professional mores. Coupled with these distinct professional nuances is the fact that research collaborations today span not only a campus, but also the globe. While the opportunities for cross cultural collaborations are invaluable, they may present challenges that result in misunderstandings about how a research idea should be studied and the findings presented. Such misunderstandings are sometimes found at the center of research misconduct cases. And yet in light of highly visible cases of research misconduct, the attitude about ensuring research integrity remains rather opaque. This paper discusses the merits of the Teaching Scholars Program as a mechanism by which to promote research integrity. This paper will examine this education program against the backdrop of the US Office of Research Integrity (ORI), as an established office responsible for ensuring the integrity of federally funded biomedical and behavioral research.
Chromium toxicity: spectral and electrochemical studies of Cr(vi) reduction by biomimicking molecules

The reductive abilities of a variety of biomimicking molecules, including OH‐containing ones such as, saccharides and their derivatives, nucleotides and their components and mixed group ligands have been determined in vitro using absorption spectra and electrochemical characterisations and were explained based on the nature of the reductants. While the reductive coefficients of these molecules showed a linear correlation with respect to oxidation potential of the ligand (Ea P) and/or reduction potential (Ec p) of the final Cr(III)‐products, in any given set, such as hexoses, pentoses, polyols, glycols, saccharide derivatives, nucleotides and their components and mixed group ligands, the plot of all the reductants reported in this paper exhibited interesting correlations with respect to these electrochemical parameters. These correlations are expected to be important in the identification of species in routine analysis carried out with pollutants. As reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) by saccharides and their ...
Tadcaster Magnesian Limestone 3-D borehole interpretation and cross-sections study

This report was prepared under contract to the Environment Agency and describes the geology 
of the area surrounding Tadcaster in North Yorkshire. The work was commissioned to 
investigate the local geology and construct 3-D cross-sections from borehole and surface 
information. Approximately 1200 boreholes were utilised for the work and these ranged in depth 
from a few metres to 350m. Five cross-sections were constructed; three WSW-ENE trending 
sections and two NNW-SSE trending sections all to a depth of 250m below OD. 
In addition, a series of thematic maps were generated from the lithological component of the 
digital borehole data. Total superficial aquifer and superficial aquitard maps show how the 
lithological nature of the superficial sequence varies across the area. Rockhead elevation and 
superficial thickness maps indicate where the bedrock aquifers outcrop or are near to the ground 
surface. 
The east side of the Vale of York in the vicinity of Tadcaster is underlain by a sequence of 
Permian and Triassic rocks overlain in part by thick superficial deposits dating mainly from the 
last Ice-Age. The Permian rocks comprise two magnesian limestone aquifers separated by 
sequences of gypsum/anhydrite and gypsiferous mudstones. The overlying Triassic rocks 
comprise the major Sherwood Sandstone aquifer. The western part of the area consists of mainly 
exposed bedrock (Permian dolostone and dolomitic limestone), but the eastern side where the 
Sherwood Sandstone Group is present has a thick cover of superficial deposits including 
moraines, glacial lake deposits and alluvial deposits.
Geography and Demography

This chapter focuses on the methodology, more precisely on the ethnographic context of the fieldwork, upon which this book is based. It also introduces the location of the study: the village of Chandhara. It is located approximately nine miles northwest of the shrine of Shah Sultan Rumi at Madanpur of Netrakona, a town located within the region of Mymensingh. Data were collected between the periods of January and August of 2005, and June and July of 2014. This chapter also describes the geography, population, sociopolitical and religio-cultural groups, social units, social hierarchies, power structure, socioreligious and cultural festivals, and educational and religious institutions of the village. In addition, it describes the political structure, judicial system, ownership record management system, and the local government institutions of the country and their impact upon rural people.
Rare Decays Probing Physics Beyond the Standard Theory

In the last 50 years we have seen how an initially ad-hoc and not widely accepted theory of the strong and electroweak interactions (Standard Theory: ST) has correctly predicted the entire accelerator based experimental observations with incredible accuracy (with the important exception of neutrino oscillation experiments). Decays of the ST particles (quarks and leptons), which are rare due to some symmetry of the theory, have played an important role in the formalism of the ST. These rare decays have been powerful tools to search for new particle interactions with the ST particles, which may not necessarily have the same symmetries. In this article, I will describe the indirect search for evidence of new physics (NP) using quark and lepton flavour changing neutral decays, which are highly suppressed within the ST, and constitute strong probes of potential new flavour structures.
(Im)Partiality, Compassion, and Cross-Cultural Change: Re-Envisioning Political Decision-Making and Free Expression

Past justifications of free expression rely on the crucial role speech plays in deliberative democracies and respecting persons. Beneath each of these justifications lies the common goal of creating greater justice for individuals and groups. Yet 20th century political liberalism limits the kinds of arguments that ought to motivate political decisions. In this paper I explore how an inclusive political decision-making process can bring about a more just world. By relying on personal views and compassion rather than impartiality and reasonability, political actors can engage in a discourse that results in greater understanding among persons and lasting community change.

Effective Field Theory of Multiparticle Correlations

We present an effective field theory of multiparticle correlations based on analogy with Ginzburg-Landau theory of superconductivity. We assume that the field represents particle density fluctuations, and show that in the case of gaussian-type effective action there are no higher-order correlations, in agreement with the recent data. We predict that two-particle correlations have Yukawa form. We also present our results for the two-dimensional and one-dimensional two-particle correlations (i.e. cumulants) as projections of our theory to lower dimensions.
