[ "Background\n==========\n\nDespite significant progress in malaria control over the last few years, malaria-related morbidity and mortality are still considerable\\[[@B1]\\]. ", "The contribution of inadequate dosage regimens (dose and frequency of administration) to anti-malarial treatment failure and the emergence of resistance has been underappreciated\\[[@B2]\\]. ", "Most recommended dosage regimens are based on studies in non-pregnant adult patients, yet young children and pregnant women are at the greatest risk of treatment failure and often bear the brunt of the malaria burden\\[[@B2]\\]. ", "Optimizing current treatment regimens could provide major health benefits and is a necessary prerequisite for malaria elimination. ", "Effective treatment of malaria requires that the dose and frequency of administration of the anti-malarial drug provide drug concentrations over time (known as the \\'concentration-time profile\\') sufficient to kill all of the parasites in the body. ", "This profile is determined by the pharmacokinetic properties of the anti-malarial drug. ", "In endemic areas, young children have the least immunity and the worst treatment responses. ", "Anti-malarial pharmacokinetics often differ substantially between patients and, therefore, need to be quantified precisely for all key target populations, especially young children and pregnant women. ", "A recent pharmacokinetic study for sulphadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) found that children, receiving the same weight-adjusted SP dose as adults, had an area under the drug concentration-time profile, for both sulphadoxine and pyrimethamine, that was half that observed for adults \\[[@B3]\\]. ", "The authors recommended that the current SP dose for children needs to be revised.", "\n\nOver the last two decades developments in statistical methodology have allowed drug concentration-time profiles to be derived from patients providing only \\\"sparse\\\" samples at random times\\[[@B4],[@B5]\\]. ", "Data from all patients are modelled simultaneously using nonlinear mixed effects modelling (also known as \\'population pharmacokinetic (PK) modelling\\'). ", "This provides estimates of the mean population PK parameters (e.g. clearance), the inter-individual variability of the PK parameters, and the residual variability (which includes intra-individual variability, measurement errors and model misspecification). ", "Additionally the introduction of liquid chromatography mass spectrometry has revolutionized drug analysis and is a highly sensitive assay with low limits of quantification while at the same time permitting low (i.e. 25--50 ml) sample volumes. ", "The viability of field studies has been considerably improved by the introduction of sensitive assays using dried capillary whole blood spots taken on filter paper. ", "Thus, since the PK profile can be determined from fewer blood samples per patient using nonlinear mixed effects modelling, and that the drug concentration can often be determined from blood taken by a simple finger prick, it has become easier to include pregnant women and young children in PK studies. ", "PK studies, which determine the drug concentration-time profile in the target patient population, are known as \\'population PK studies\\'. ", "The importance of population PK studies in drug development and evaluation has been recognized by the US FDA\\[[@B6]\\].", "\n\nAlthough there are now statistical methods to analyse sparse data from population PK studies, the design of these population PK studies is not straightforward. ", "Many questions arise about how best to conduct these studies including: how many patients should be included in the study, what sampling scheme should be used, how many different sampling schemes are required, and how many patients need to be allocated to each of these sampling schemes. ", "Answers to these questions require prior knowledge of the PK profile of the drug, the statistical methods used to analyse data from population PK studies, and also the practical constraints of sampling the patient population. ", "Examples of such constraints include the timing of clinic visit, the maximum number of blood samples per patient that can be collected, logistical constraints of clinic workload, and whether a venous or capillary sample is being collected. ", "Currently population PK studies are designed based on logistical, financial and ethical constraints, and the investigator\\'s knowledge of the drug concentration-time profile. ", "Although these factors are important, they may result in a study of \\'insufficient design\\', which is unable to determine the desired PK parameters and, therefore, unable to answer the fundamental questions that the population PK model was intended to answer. ", "In such a case the study is wasted. ", "Thus, there is both a scientific and an ethical imperative to ensure PK studies are designed in such a way that they are most likely to provide useable results.", "\n\nA prime example of the applicability, but also the difficulty of a population approach is seen with PK studies of the artemisinin derivatives. ", "These compounds are rapidly absorbed and have very short elimination half-lives, typically less than one-hour \\[[@B7]\\], thus limiting options for sampling schedules. ", "Additionally, there is large inter-patient and residual variability \\[[@B8]-[@B13]\\], reflecting in part issues with the previous drug assay methodologies \\[[@B14]\\]. ", "Another complication is that these drugs decompose in the presence of iron(II) and, therefore, have to be analysed in plasma, and not in samples collected using the dried blood spot technique. ", "This is because during the sample collection of dried blood spots, the blood cells rupture and the protein configuration is changed during the drying process. ", "All of these factors may contribute to an \\'insufficient design\\' for population PK studies of these drugs. ", "Consequently, many of the PK analyses of the artemisinin derivatives have either been unable to fit satisfactory structural PK models to the data \\[[@B9]-[@B11],[@B13]\\], fit only a one-compartment structural PK model \\[[@B9],[@B13]\\], or required some of the PK parameters to be fixed \\[[@B8],[@B9],[@B13]\\]. ", "In the study by Mithwani *et al*\\[[@B9]\\], the authors state that a number of assumptions were required to obtain a satisfactory fit of the model to the PK data due to the sparseness of the data. ", "Considering that the key PK information required for the artemisinins is the maximum concentration, the area under the concentration-time profile, and the time above a certain concentration, then, it is unethical to continue conducting these PK studies when the sampling schedule will be insufficient to obtain accurately this information.", "\n\nThese various problems could be overcome by designing population PK studies using both information regarding the practical constraints of sampling and optimal design methods\\[[@B15]\\]. ", "Optimal design methods provide designs for population PK studies that are robust and efficient by taking into account the concentration-time profile of the drug, the statistical methods required to analyse population PK data, practical constraints of sampling, and uncertainty in the PK parameter values and structural PK models. ", "They can also help the researcher understand the benefits and limitations of particular sampling schedules.", "\n\nThis paper will provide an introduction to optimal design methods, including the prior information required for optimal design methods, followed by a theoretical application of the method for designing a population PK study of intravenous artesunate.", "\n\nOptimal design methods\n======================\n\nOptimal design methods (also known as data-independent methods) for designing population PK studies have only been available in the last decade \\[[@B15]-[@B17]\\]. ", "The methods have been used for designing studies of the population PK studies of itraconazole and ibuprofen in cystic fibrosis patients \\[[@B18],[@B19]\\], enoxaparin in patients with acute coronary syndrome and deep vein thrombosis \\[[@B20]\\], mizolastine in children with allergies \\[[@B21]\\], and fluconazole in people with HIV infection\\[[@B22]\\].", "\n\nThe methods require prior specification of:\n\n• structural PK model (e.g. one-compartment PK model with first-order absorption and elimination),\n\n• PK parameter values (e.g. the values of the absorption rate constant (k~a~), clearance (CL), apparent volume of distribution (Vd)),\n\n• the distribution of inter-individual variability for each of the PK parameters and the values of the variance of each of these distributions,\n\n• the residual variability model and the values of the variance(s),\n\n• study design space determined from sampling constraints (examples of sampling constraints: maximum number of patients that can be recruited in the study; maximum number of samples allowed per patient; minimum time allowed between consecutive samples for an individual; constrained times for the collection of the blood samples, say 9 am to 5 pm; cost limitations).", "\n\nFigure [1](#F1){ref-type=\"fig\"} provides a flow-chart showing the components involved in designing a population PK study using optimal design methods. ", "The study design team should have clinical, pharmacological and statistical expertise.", "\n\n![**", "Flowchart for designing population pharmacokinetic studies using optimal design methods**.](1475-2875-8-189-1){#F1}\n\nIt is important to note that optimal design methods, when applied to PK studies, are dependent on the prior choice of a particular set of parameters and model. ", "The influence of this dependence can be diluted by considering and accounting for uncertainty in both the parameter values as well as the plausible models. ", "For example, Roos *et al*\\[[@B22]\\] used optimal design methods to determine a PK design for fluconazole in patients with HIV infection, using prior information from a phase I study of healthy volunteers. ", "Since the prior information was from healthy volunteers who may differ in their PK of fluconazole, five different competing structural PK models were considered when designing the study for the patients with HIV infection. ", "This ensured that the design proposed for HIV patients was robust to uncertainty in the structural PK model.", "\n\nIn addition to consideration of uncertainty in the prior information on the models, it is also important to consider that the optimum design may not necessarily be achievable in the clinic. ", "Hence, it is important to consider practical constraints such that an optimum design is achieved conditioned on logistical components. ", "An example using constraints on optimal design methods is given in \\[[@B21]\\]. ", "In this work, a restrictive sampling schedule was developed for a population PK study of mizolastine in children. ", "The study design constraints specified were a maximum of four and six blood samples drawn from a catheter in children aged 2 to 6 years and 6 to 12 years respectively, and only one sample from children aged 6 to 12 years without a catheter. ", "For children with a catheter, blood sampling was restricted to the first six hours so they would not have to remain for a long time in the hospital. ", "A population PK study, based on the derived optimal design, was then conducted in children and the corresponding data were successfully analysed using nonlinear mixed effects modelling.", "\n\nOptimal design methods have not been used for designing population PK studies of anti-malarial treatments.", "\n\nDerivation of optimal design\n============================\n\nTo derive the optimum design, several candidate designs within the study constraints are considered, where the amount of \\\"information\\\" (i.e. the precision of the parameters to be estimated) in each design is estimated. ", "Thus the design that contains the most \\\"information\\\" (i.e. the design with the most precision) is considered optimal. ", "This is done mathematically by computing the Fisher information matrix based on parameters of the structural PK model, the inter-patient variability, and the residual variability. ", "A brief explanation of the Fisher information matrix is given in Additional file [1](#S1){ref-type=\"supplementary-material\"}. ", "The design that maximizes the determinant of the Fisher information matrix (the determinant can be thought of as a measure of the volume of a matrix) also minimizes the determinant of the estimation variance-covariance matrix. ", "In other words, optimizing a design based on the determinant of the Fisher information matrix will provide a design that has the highest precision (smallest standard errors) of the parameters to be estimated. ", "The optimum design is called the D-optimal design. ", "An optimization algorithm \\[[@B23]\\] searches for the D-optimal design within the study design constraints.", "\n\nThere are currently five open source software packages that derive optimal designs for population PK studies using the above D-optimal criteria, PFIM\\[[@B24]\\], PopDes\\[[@B25]\\], PopED\\[[@B26]\\], and POPT and its complement WinPOPT\\[[@B27]\\]. ", "All of the packages evaluate sampling designs using the same mathematical derivation of the Fisher information matrix described above but vary in terms of the extensibility of the package \\[[@B28]\\]. ", "For this paper, further discussion will be limited to the properties and features of the software package POPT (WinPOPT is the graphical user interface of POPT). ", "POPT allows the user to specify various study constraints (maximum number of patients, maximum number of samples per patient, sampling windows, minimum time between consecutive blood samples). ", "For prior specification of the structural PK model, the user can select one of the available PK models or specify their own model using any parameterization. ", "Additionally, more than one structural PK model can be selected (e.g. one- and two-compartment models). ", "For example, the structural PK model fitted to mefloquine concentrations in population PK studies has been both one-compartmental \\[[@B29],[@B30]\\] and two-compartmental \\[[@B31]\\]. ", "Since it is not known which model may best describe the data arising from the new study it is reasonable to consider all previously published models as potential candidates for the structural PK model. ", "POPT then automatically combines a measure of the \\\"informativeness\\\" of the design for each PK model into a single criterion. ", "This criterion can then be optimized using one of the global search algorithms available within POPT to provide a design that is jointly optimal for estimation of parameters from all candidate PK models.", "\n\nBesides searching for the D-optimal design, POPT can evaluate the performance of any particular design. ", "This informs researchers of the expected precision of the PK parameters and any limitations of their proposed population PK design.", "\n\nApplication of the optimal design method to design a population pharmacokinetic study of intravenous artesunate\n===============================================================================================================\n\nThe following hypothetical example is a population PK study to determine the PK of dihydroartemisinin (the principal biologically active metabolite) following a single intravenous infusion (given as a rapid push) of 120 mg of artesunate (circa 2.4 mg/kg).

", "It has an exclusive right to operate a public grain elevator within the Greater Baton Rouge port area by virtue of an agreement with the Baton Rouge Port Commission. ", "The dispute generating this litigation began when Cargill attempted, by amendment to the agreement, to control all the stevedoring business at the elevator. ", "Petitioners pose jurisdictional problems under the Shipping Act, 46 U.S.C.A. § 801 et seq., ", "and question the validity of a Report and Order of the Federal Maritime Board.1 This order, under authority of Section 17 of the Shipping Act empowering the Board to enjoin unjustly discriminatory rates, approves the original agreement between Cargill and the Port Commission. ", "The order disapproves the amendment authorizing the restrictive arrangement creating a monopoly over stevedoring activities at the elevator.", "\n\nI.\n\n2\nBaton Rouge Port Commission, one of the petitioners, is a regulatory agency of the State of Louisiana.2 Cargill, the other petitioner, is a Delaware corporation engaged throughout the country in the business of buying and selling, loading and unloading, storing and delivering grain.", "\n\n\n3\nIn 1955 the Port Commission leased to Cargill a grain elevator and wharf on the Mississippi River one mile south of Port Allen, Louisiana, within the Greater Baton Rouge port area. ", "This lease, Agreement 8225, gives Cargill the exclusive right to operate a public grain elevator within the port area, and a first option on additional grain storage and handling facilities if the Port Commission should decide to construct any more such facilities. ", "Article 10 of this agreement, a key provision, states that the grain elevator and wharf shall be maintained as public port facilities; that \"to the extent economically feasible [Cargill] will give preference to this grain elevator over the other grain elevators operated by [Cargill] in the Gulf area\"; and, that Cargill's rates shall be on a competitive basis with published rates at New Orleans and other Gulf ports.", "\n\n\n4\nIn 1957 the parties amended their original lease by requiring Cargill to furnish stevedoring service for vessels calling at the grain elevator, and allowing Cargill to condition the loading and unloading of vessels on their using Cargill's stevedoring service exclusively. ", "This amendment is Agreement 8225-1.", "\n\n\n5\nThe original lease agreement was not filed with the Board for approval. ", "After the lease was amended, Cargill and the Port Commission on April 25, 1957, filed both agreements, 8225 and 8225-1, with the Board for approval under Section 15 of the Shipping Act.", "\n\n\n6\nCargill is licensed under the United States Warehouse Act, 7 U.S.C.A. § 241 et seq., ", "to operate the grain elevator, and has filed copies of the agreements, 8225 and 8225-1, and a schedule of charges with the Secretary of Agriculture. ", "On this peg Cargill hangs its jurisdictional argument.", "\n\n\n7\nWe note that Cargill's wharf extends over the Mississippi River, and a long ramp runs, on land, from the wharf to the elevator. ", "The license issued by the Secretary of Agriculture covers the elevator only and makes no reference to the wharf, or, for that matter, to any maritime facilities.", "\n\n\n8\nThe grain elevator was opened in September, 1955, greatly expanding the facilities of the port of Baton Rouge. ", "Four Gulf stevedoring firms, encouraged by the Port Commission and assured by Cargill that the elevator would not be operated on an exclusive basis but would be open to all stevedores, organized the Baton Rouge Marine Contractors, Inc., (BARMA) to supply agency and stevedoring services at Baton Rouge. ", "The four firms decided to make this a cooperative effort mainly because of the substantial capital investment required for equipment necessary to engage in stevedoring operations at the grain elevator. ", "In the beginning, BARMA ran into trouble in the purchase of equipment and in the hiring and training of personnel and labor. ", "These troubles were overcome and efficiency improved. ", "By the time of the hearing, BARMA's stevedoring rates were only slightly higher than stevedoring rates charged in New Orleans. ", "Cargill was not satisfied. ", "From time to time, Cargill complained to BARMA regarding vessel dispatch and turnaround time. ", "Then in August 1956 Cargill decided to enter into the stevedoring business at Baton Rouge. ", "It brought into the area Rogers Terminal and Shipping Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary. ", "Cargill notified BARMA that it was no longer welcome at the elevator and that all vessels calling at the elevator would have to employ Rogers as stevedore. ", "BARMA refused to withdraw from the stevedoring business at the elevator. ", "It has continued to operate in competition with Rogers.", "\n\n\n9\nIn March 1957, with no notice to BARMA and with no inquiry into how Cargill would conduct the stevedoring operation, the Port Commission entered into an exclusive stevedoring arrangement with Cargill embodied in Agreement 8225-1. ", "The reason stated in the Agreement for this action was to integrate the unloading of vessels \"into the over-all elevator operation so as to provide a more efficient service.\" ", "The Board found, however, that BARMA was more efficient than Rogers, notwithstanding the fact that when Rogers started in business it succeeded in hiring some of BARMA's key supervisory personnel. ", "In the proceedings before the Board BARMA filed a protest against the amendment to the Cargill Agreement. ", "In the instant case BARMA intervened.", "\n\nII.", "\n\n10\nThe Port Commission concedes it is subject to the provisions of the Shipping Act and to the jurisdiction of the Federal Maritime Board. ", "State of California v. United States, 1944, 320 U.S. 577, 585, 64 S.Ct. ", "352, 88 L.Ed. ", "322. ", "Cargill, relying on its license under Section 29 of the Warehouse Act (7 U.S.C.A. § 269), asserts that this Act vests in the Secretary of Agriculture exclusive jurisdiction over all activities of a licensed warehouseman, including stevedoring, wharfage, and dockage activities; citing Rice v. Santa Fe Elevator Corp., 1947, 331 U.S. 218, 67 S.Ct. ", "1146, 91 L.Ed. ", "1447 and Cargill, Inc. v. Commodity Exchange Commission, D.C.D.C.1952, 103 F.Supp. ", "992. ", "The Warehouse Act does, as Cargill points out, provide that \"the power, jurisdiction, and authority conferred upon the Secretary of Agriculture under this Act shall be exclusive with respect to all persons securing a license hereunder so long as said license remains in effect.\" ", "7 U.S. C.A. § 269.", "\n\n\n11\nGoing first to the Shipping Act,3 we find that Section 1 defines the term \"other person subject to this act\" to mean \"any person not included in the term `common carrier by water,' carrying on the business of forwarding or furnishing wharfage, dock, warehouse, or other terminal facilities in connection with a common carrier by water.\" ", "Of course, effective regulation of common carriage would necessarily involve some supervision over auxiliary services. ", "Cargill comes within the Act, since it furnishes \"wharfage, dock, warehouse, or other terminal facilities\" at the Baton Rouge grain elevator \"in connection\" with common carriage by water.", "\n\n\n12\nGoing now to the Warehouse Act,4 we find that it does not vest jurisdiction over wharves, docks, and stevedoring in the Secretary of Agriculture. ", "By definition the Act applies to the storage of agricultural products, not to maritime activities and facilities. ", "Thus, 7 U.S.C.A. § 242 defines the term \"warehouse\" to mean \"every building, structure, or other protected inclosure in which any agricultural product is or may be stored for interstate or foreign commerce, or, if located within any place under the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States, in which any agricultural product is or may be stored.\" ", "The primary concern of the Act is to establish standards for the safe storing of agricultural products in federally licensed warehouses. ", "It seems clear to us that the Secretary of Agriculture is not primarily concerned with Cargill's stevedoring functions and that the Federal Maritime Board is not primarily concerned with Cargill's warehousing functions.", "\n\n\n13\nHere, although many of Cargill's facilities and services are of a maritime nature, some pertain to the warehousing business. ", "A geographical line cannot be drawn separating the two. ", "Thus, \"loading out\" is considered a part of the business of a grain elevator. ", "The loading gallery, surge hoppers, and chutes are part of the premises of the entire grain elevator and are covered by the license issued by the Secretary of Agriculture. ", "Where would the jurisdiction of the Secretary of Agriculture cease and the jurisdiction of the Federal Maritime Board begin? ", "Somewhere along the loading gallery? ", "Complicating the problem, Cargill is responsible for the quality of grain even after it is stowed by the stevedores aboard the ship. ", "The grain must be determined by laboratory inspection to be of equal quality to the grain called for by the warehouse receipts surrendered for loading. ", "The purpose of this inspection is to correct any mistakes resulting from the delivery of the wrong kind of grain through the spout. ", "But, all of this relates to Cargill's contractual obligations — not necessarily to its stevedoring obligations, as such. ", "If Cargill fails to deliver the proper grain, it must rectify the error. ", "The nature of Cargill's business, therefore, subjects it to the jurisdiction of the Secretary of Agriculture; but no inference can be drawn from this fact that would oust the Federal Maritime Board from its control over Cargill. ", "The Secretary of Agriculture, it should be noted, is not appearing in the case to assert any jurisdiction.", "\n\n\n14\nUnder the original United States Warehouse Act, enacted in 1916, federal regulation was subservient to state regulation. ", "Section 29 of the original act provided that \"nothing in this act shall be construed to conflict with, or authorize any conflict with, or in any way to impair or limit the effect or operation of the laws of any State relating to warehouses, warehousemen * * *.\" ", "Section 6 required any applicant for a federal warehouse license to post a bond to secure the performance of his obligations. ", "Congress amended the Act in 1931, changing Section 29 so that the Secretary of Agriculture, although authorized to cooperate with State officials charged with the enforcement of state laws relating to warehouses, had exclusive power, jurisdiction and authority with respect to all persons securing a license under the Act. ", "Congress amended Section 6 by deleting the requirement that the bond be conditioned on compliance with requirements of state law. ", "The history and purpose of these legislative changes are discussed in Rice v. Sante Fe Elevator Corp., 1947, 331 U.S. 218, 67 S.Ct. ", "1146, 91 L.Ed. ", "1447. ", "This case concludes that a warehouseman is not obligated to operate under the Act, but he may choose to be licensed under it; if he does, he is responsible solely under the federal act, free from the interference of state acts.", "\n\n\n15\nIn Rice v. Santa Fe Elevator Corp., 1947, 331 U.S. 218, 67 S.Ct. ", "1146, 91 L.Ed. ", "1447, the state regulatory agency having jurisdiction over warehouse activities brought proceedings against a federally licensed warehouseman. ", "The warehouseman sued in the federal courts to enjoin the proceedings before the state agency and to enjoin the state attorney general from enforcing any order of the agency. ", "In granting the injunction, the Supreme Court held that Congress had exercised its preemptive constitutional power over grain warehouses by adopting a uniform regulatory scheme to be administered by the Secretary of Agriculture. ", "The case was decided on the issue of federal-state relations: \"The test, therefore, is whether the matter on which the State asserts the right to act is in any way regulated by the Federal Act.\" ", "Id., 331 U.S. at page 236, 67 S.Ct. ", "at page 1155. ", "Since the matter is regulated by the federal act, the federal scheme of regulation prevails; the matters involved in the suit before the State regulatory commission are beyond its reach. ", "Congress pre-empted the field by declaring its policy in the Warehouse Act. ", "To knock down dual regulation between state and federal systems is a far cry from saying that other federal agencies, within their proper sphere, may not exercise control or regulation along with the Secretary of Agriculture. ", "The Rice decision does not extend the authority of the Secretary of Agriculture into matters beyond the scope of the Warehouse Act.", "\n\n\n16\nCargill relies also on Cargill, Inc. v. Commodity Exchange Commission et al., ", "D.C.1952, 103 F.Supp. ", "992. ", "In that case Cargill sued the Commission for a declaratory judgment to determine the validity of certain amended rules and regulations adopted by the Chicago Board of Trade. ", "7 U.S.C.A. § 7a(7), part of the Commodity Exchange Act, authorizes local boards of trade to set up reasonable warehousing requirements for warehouses whose receipts are traded at the local board of trade. ", "The Chicago Board of Trade adopted rules requiring all persons in the Chicago area operating federally licensed warehouses to file formal application with the Board to have each such warehouse declared to be \"regular\" if the warehouse receipts were to be accepted on grain futures contracts. ", "The local board's regulations went far beyond the \"reasonable requirements\" authorized by the Act. ", "The district court held, properly enough, that the Act authorizing local boards of trade to set up ground rules for trading in warehouse receipts did not intend to impair the principle of exclusive federal control of the operation of federally licensed warehouses. ", "Again, this is a far cry from holding that the Secretary of Agriculture's control is exclusive as against other federal agencies.", "\n\n\n17\nBusinesses are frequently subject to regulation by several government agencies. ", "We see nothing unusual in Cargill's being subject to the regulatory authority of the Secretary of Agriculture in its warehousing activities and at the same time being subject to the regulatory authority of the Federal Maritime Board when it furnishes maritime facilities and services. ", "The situation would be anomalous if it were otherwise.5\n\n\n18\nWe hold that both Cargill and the Port Commission are subject to the Shipping Act, and subject to the jurisdiction of the Federal Maritime Board.", "\n\nIII.", "\n\n19\nCargill argues that Agreement 8225 was not within Section 15 of the Shipping Act. ", "Section 15 of the Shipping Act requires persons subject to the Act to file with the Board every agreement relating to \"fixing or regulating transportation rates or fares; giving or receiving special rates, accommodations, or other special privileges or advantages; controlling, regulating, preventing, or destroying competition; pooling or apportioning earnings, losses, or traffic; allotting ports or restricting or otherwise regulating the number and character of sailings between ports; limiting or regulating in any way the volume or character of freight or passenger traffic to be carried; or in any manner providing for an exclusive, preferential, or cooperative working arrangement.\" ", "The term \"agreement\" in this section \"includes understandings, conferences, and other arrangements.\"", "\n\n\n20\nThe Chief Examiner of the Board was in accord with Cargill. ", "He found that the agreement is \"purely and simply a lease establishing Cargill as tenant and the Port as landlord.\" ", "It seemed to the Board, and it seems to us, that the agreement \"goes far beyond the usual provisions of a mere lease of property.\"", "\n\n\n21\nUnder Article 10 of the original agreement Cargill agreed \"to the extent economically feasible that it will give preference to this grain elevator over other grain elevators operated by [it] in the Gulf area,\" and that Cargill would \"maintain and publish rates and charges for the handling and storage of grain upon or within the facility on a competitive basis to rates published for similar services at New Orleans and other competitive Gulf ports. * * *\" ", "In Article 17 of the agreement the Port Commission agreed that its rates for privileges and services would be competitive with rates for similar services charged at other Gulf ports, that \"during the term of this lease Cargill shall have the exclusive right to operate hereunder a public grain elevator within the Port area as such area is defined by law,\" and that if \"the Port decides to construct additional grain storage and handling facilities, Port must first offer such facilities to Cargill for operation. * * *\" ", "In its Report the Board states that \"[t]hese provisions fix and regulate transportation rates or fares, give special privileges or advantages, control, regulate, prevent or destroy competition, and provide for an exclusive, preferential or cooperative working arrangement within the meaning of Section 15.\"", "\n\n\n22\nThe provisions for (1) the preference to the Baton Rouge elevator over other elevators in the Gulf area, (2) the regulation of rates (required to be competitive with other Gulf ports), (3) Cargill's exclusive right to operate a grain terminal, and (4) Cargill's first refusal on any additional terminals, take the agreement out of the ambit of ordinary leases and place it squarely within the terms of Section 15. ", "This is no ordinary grain elevator. ", "It is operated at a port. ", "Its function is to facilitate the loading and unloading of grain for vessels using the port because of its handling and storage services. ", "It is part and parcel of an over-all scheme for the greater commercial development and use of the Baton Rouge port area. ", "An agreement pertaining to the exclusive operation of such an elevator, dealing with preferences and rates, maritime services and facilities, has such a significant maritime connection as to fall well within the jurisdiction and scope of authority of the Federal Maritime Board.", "\n\n\n23\nSince the agreement comes within the terms of the Act, Board approval must be secured before the agreement can be carried out by the parties. ", "Here, the Board approved the original agreement, finding it not unjustly discriminatory or unfair, and not detrimental to the commerce of the United States.6 This conclusion is not contested by any of the parties. ", "We leave it undisturbed.", "\n\nIV.", "\n\n24\nAgreement 8225-1 amended Section 10 of Agreement 8225 by adding the following provision:\n\n\n25\n\"Cargill further is required to and agrees to provide and furnish stevedoring services to vessels loading or unloading at the wharf, it being recognized that vessels loading or unloading should be integrated into the overall elevator operations so as to provide efficient service, both to such vessel and to persons depositing commodities into the elevator. ", "It is deemed to be a reasonable rule and regulation in the operation of the wharf which is part of the leased property, for Cargill to condition the loading or unloading of a vessel upon the requirement that Cargill's integrated stevedoring service be used by such vessels.\"", "\n\n\n26\nArticle 10 was also amended to require Cargill to \"maintain and publish rates and charges * * * in a competitive basis to rates published or charged for similar services at New Orleans and other competitive Gulf ports * * * for the stevedoring of vessels loaded or unloaded at the wharf.\"", "\n\n\n27\nSection 15 of the Shipping Act authorizes the Board to disapprove, cancel or modify any agreement found to be \"unjustly discriminatory or unfair\" or operating to the \"detriment of the commerce of the United States\". ", "46 U.S.C.A. § 814. ", "Section 17 authorizes the Board to determine, prescribe and order the enforcement of a \"just and reasonable regulation or practice\" whenever it finds regulations or practices established by persons subject to the Act to be \"unjust or unreasonable.\" ", "46 U.S.C.A. § 816. ", "The Board's decision in the instant case applied both of these sections. ", "After considering Agreement 8225-1, the Board refused to approve it, holding that Agreement 8225-1 resulted in a monopoly of stevedoring services detrimental to the commerce of the United States. ", "See Baker-Whiteley Coal Co. v. Baltimore & O. R. Co., 4 Cir., ", "1911, 188 F. 405; Donovan v. Pennsylvania Co., 1905, 199 U.S. 279, 26 S.Ct. ", "91, 50 L.Ed. ", "192.

", "544.", "\n\n\n28\nThe Port Commission and Cargill contend that Agreement 8225-1 does not come within the purview of Section 15 of the Shipping Act, and that these provisions merely represent the exercise of the free right of managerial judgment by the Commission as owner and Cargill as operator of the property. ", "But if Agreement 8225 comes within Section 15, as we have held, then a fortiori Agreement No. ", "8225-1, which broadens the lease to include stevedores — clearly a maritime concern — comes within Section 15.", "\n\n\n29\nStevedoring is traditionally maritime. ", "Stevedoring of grain requires a close relation between the stevedore and the vessel, a careful inspection of the ship, a sound plan of stowage, and skillful execution of the plan. ", "There is a complete separation between the function of the elevator in delivering the grain and the function of a vessel in receiving it. ", "There is no physical connection between vessel and elevator except guide lines to hold the spout discharging grain into a hatch. ", "The elevator workers perform no services on the vessel; the longshoremen perform no services in the elevator or on the wharf.", "\n\n\n30\nAccordingly, under Section 15, we find that Agreement 8225-1 required the approval of the Board in order for it to become effective.", "\n\nV.\n\n31\nThe Board's decision was reached after a full hearing, including submission of briefs and oral argument. ", "The Board was set up by Congress to determine questions of fact and make administrative orders on the basis of its informed judgment and discretion. ", "If the Board's order is supported by sufficient evidence considering the record as a whole, and if the order has a reasonable basis in law, this Court will not disturb it.7\n\n\n32\nIn spite of the fact that the ship's master is legally responsible for the proper loading and seaworthiness of the vessel, Agreement 8225-1 would prohibit the vessel from participating in the selection of its stevedore. ", "The Agreement would make the Baton Rouge elevator the only one of nine elevators in the Gulf area not \"open\" to stevedores. ", "Cargill asserts that the agreement will result in a \"more efficient and economical over-all operation.\" ", "Efficiency is not enough. ", "It is not a cure-all. ", "Not in our system of law.", "\n\n\n33\nCargill and the Port Commission assert that the exclusive stevedoring contract enabled the Port Commission to secure favorable rental payments which are necessary in order for the Commission to finance its operations, the Commission having no power to tax and not having the benefit of taxes being dedicated to it. ", "La.Const. ", "of 1921, Art. ", "VI, Section 29. ", "Monopolies secure economic advantages. ", "They are expected. ", "But if economic advantages are factors to be considered at all, they are to be weighed and evaluated by the Federal Maritime Board. ", "Not by us in our appellate role.", "\n\n\n34\nThe record does not justify Cargill's high opinion of its stevedoring activities. ", "Over 80% of the vessels free to select the stevedore chose BARMA rather than Rogers, Cargill's affiliate. ", "The average hourly tonnage loaded by BARMA has substantially exceeded that of Rogers, before and after the exclusive arrangement.8 The record shows that the stevedoring services and efficiency of BARMA steadily improved and are in some cases superior to Rogers' services. ", "BARMA has held on to half of the grain stevedoring business at Baton Rouge even though Cargill's affiliates have appointed Rogers as stevedore.", "\n\n\n35\nCargill argues that its legal obligation to provide stevedoring services in accordance with specified standards, thereby protecting vessel owners and operators against unreasonable charges for stevedoring, removes any possibility that the amendment could be detrimental to commerce or in any way conflict with Section 17 of the Act. ", "No matter how desirable an agreement may appear, no matter how beneficent the monopoly may appear, Congress has commanded that agreements limiting or destroying competition must first be approved by the Board before they may be lawfully carried out. ", "National policy favors free and healthy competition; monopoly is the exception. ", "Here, to rely on the agreement's alleged built-in safeguards, preventing harmful effects of a monopoly, is to fail to look at the total picture. ", "It would take away, too, the Board's function and arrogate it to us. ", "This we will not do if there is a reasonable basis for the Board's decision. ", "On the record, as we read it, there is a rational foundation in law and in fact for the Board's conclusion that Agreement 8225-1 would be unjustly discriminatory, unfair, and unreasonable, and therefore detrimental to commerce in the United States.", "\n\n\n36\nWe summarize. ", "Cargill is subject to the jurisdiction of the Federal Maritime Board, whether or not it is also licensed as a warehouseman by the Secretary of Agriculture. ", "The exclusive lease arrangement embodied in Agreement 8225 between Cargill and the Port Commission is within the scope of Section 15 of the Shipping Act. ", "The Board properly approved it.

The Euler equation on $(M,g)$ reads as follows: $$\\label{euler}\n\\begin{cases}\n{\\partial}_t v + {\\rm div}(v \\otimes v) + {\\nabla}p = 0 \\qquad \\text{in } [0,T] \\times M,\\\\\n{\\rm div}\\, v = 0\\qquad \\text{in } [0,T] \\times M,\\\\\n\\langle v, \\nu \\rangle = 0 \\qquad \\text{on } [0,T] \\times {\\partial}M.\n\\end{cases}$$ Here $v: [0,T] \\times M \\to TM$ is the velocity, $p: [0,T] \\times M \\to {\\mathbb{R}}$ is the pressure, $\\nu$ is the outward unit normal vectorfield on the boundary ${\\partial}M$, and $\\langle\\bullet,\\bullet\\rangle$ is the inner product on ${\\partial}M$ induced by the metric $g$. The infinite-dimensional Lie group ${{\\bf SDiff}}(M)$ is equipped with the $L^2$-metric. ", "In this note we shall normalise $T=1$.\n\nTwo problems on ${{\\bf SDiff}}(M)$ {#subsec: 2 prob}\n-----------------------------------\n\nArnold’s viewpoint initiated fruitful researches on the Euler equation via global-geometric and variational methods.

", "They are concerned with whether two prescribed configurations of an incompressible fluid on $M$ can be nicely deformed into each other inside ${{\\bf SDiff}}(M)$. A solution for the classical variational problem will give rise to a smooth solution for the Euler Eq.", "  .", "\n\nAttainable and unattainable diffeomorphisms\n-------------------------------------------\n\nIn a series of original works [@s89; @s93; @s94] around 1990s, Shnirelman showed that the answers to both the two-point problem and the classical variational problem are, in general, *negative*.

", "This can be proved for general surfaces using symplectic geometric techniques; see Eliashberg–Ratiu [@er].", "\n\nOn the other hand, let us remark that if $h=h_T$ is sufficiently close to ${{\\bf id}}=h_0$ in the $H^s$-norm for $s>\\lfloor n/2 \\rfloor +1$, then the two-point and classical variational problems are both soluble; see Ebin–Marsden [@em].", "\n\nSome subsequent developments\n----------------------------\n\nThis paper relies crucially on Theorem \\[thm: sh\\]. ", "Nevertheless, to put our work into perspectives, we digress briefly to discuss some developments further to the resolutions of the two-point and classical variational problems.", "\n\nThe non-existence of action-minimising paths in ${{\\bf SDiff}}(M)$ suggests that the putative fluid flows which “minimise the kinetic energy” may allow collisions, merges, and splits of particle trajectories. ", "Thus, one may need to forgo the smoothness of ${{\\bf SDiff}}(M)$ and work in measure-theoretic settings. ", "In 1989 Brenier [@b] introduced the notion of *generalised flows* (GF). ", "They are the probability measures on the path space $C^0(I,M)$, where $I=[0,1]$. A GF is incompressible if and only if its marginals for all times $t$ are equal to the normalised Riemannian volume measure on $M$. Roughly speaking, GFs correspond to measure-valued solutions for the Euler Eq.", " .", "\n\nPioneered by [@b], variational models for incompressible GFs remain up to date a crucial topic of mathematical hydrodynamics. ", "Many studies have been devoted to understanding the approximations by diffeomorphisms, the rôle of pressure, the optimal transportational aspects, and the numerical algorithms for GFs. ", "We refer the readers to Bernot–Figalli–Santambrogio [@bfs], Ambrosio–Figalli [@af], Brenier–Gangbo [@bg], Eyink [@e], and Benamou–Carlier–Nenna [@bcn] among many others papers, as well as the exposition [@df] by Daneri–Figalli.", "\n\nIn addition, Arnold’s paper [@a] triggered active research activities on the global geometry of diffeomorphism groups.

It seems difficult to generalise many of the results in the above works to general manifolds, as they make crucial use of explicit constructions of fluid flows on $I^n$ or ${\\mathbb{T}^n}$.\n\nOn the other hand, considerable developments concerning measure-preserving homeomorphisms and diffeomorphisms on manifolds-with-boundary have taken place in topology and dynamics.

", "The objective was to determine the relation of circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentrations to fasting lipid concentrations in South Asian subjects at risk of hypovitaminosis D.

", "Fasting lipid profiles were measured as part of a study of the risk factors for type 2 diabetes and ischemic heart disease, which included hypovitaminosis D.

", "However, a multiple regression analysis, which included all the documented risk factors for diabetes and ischemic heart disease, showed that the 25(OH)D concentration (vitamin D status) was an independent predictor of increasing apo A-I concentrations (standardized coefficient beta = 0.3; P < 0.001) but not of fasting lipid concentrations.

[ "INTRODUCTION {#SEC1}\n============\n\nThe ribosome ensures high speed and accuracy in translation ([@B1]--[@B4]) by selecting the correct aminoacyl-tRNA (aa-tRNA) specific to the mRNA codon presented in the ribosomal A-site, from the pool of aa-tRNAs. ", "Standard Watson--Crick base pairing (A with U and G with C) is at the heart of the selection process. ", "It has been suggested that the ribosome recognizes correct codon-anticodon Watson--Crick geometry by its shape and achieves high accuracy by interaction with the so-called monitoring rRNA bases of the 30 S subunit, concomitant with a small 30S inter-domain movement ([@B5]). ", "These monitoring bases, A1492, A1493 and G530, adopt significantly different conformations in the case of an empty A-site ([@B6]--[@B8]) and an A-site into which a tRNA (or anticodon stem-loop) has relaxed ([@B5],[@B9]--[@B11]). ", "In the former case the bases appear conformationally variable and are generally directed away from the decoding site, while upon tRNA binding they become ordered and interact with the minor groove of codon-anticodon minihelix. ", "The monitoring bases have a tighter interaction with the first two codon-anticodon positions relative to the third ([@B5],[@B12]), which partly explains the degeneracy of the genetic code. ", "Hence, any deviation from standard Watson--Crick geometry at the first two codon positions resulting from near-cognate (A-C or G-U) mismatches will be strongly sensed by the monitoring bases, causing efficient rejection of the incorrect tRNA ([@B2],[@B4],[@B13]). ", "Furthermore, tRNA modifications also have a prominent role in expanding the decoding capacity and maintaining fidelity ([@B14]--[@B19]) and is has, for example, been shown that modifications at residue 34 of the tRNA anticodon can both expand and restrict the ability to recognize multiple codons ([@B14]--[@B18]).", "\n\nA key unresolved question in mRNA decoding on the ribosome regards the possibility of tautomerization of the codon-anticodon bases, which could potentially be a threat to high fidelity. ", "Particularly for near-cognate A-C and G-U mismatches tautomerization of either of the bases could add an extra hydrogen bond to the pairing. ", "In the former case (A-C) it is imino tautomers and in the latter (G-U) it is the enol forms that could cause decoding problems. ", "Such tautomeric equilibria for free bases in solution are difficult to measure accurately due to the high prevalence of the standard amino and keto forms ([@B20]). ", "However, quantum mechanical calculations (including solvation effects) clearly predict that it is easier to form the relevant C (imino) and G (enol) tautomers (6--8 kcal/mol) than those of A and U (\\>10 kcal/mol) ([@B21]--[@B23]). ", "As far as A-C mismatches are concerned, it is also energetically more favorable to protonate the adenine at N1 (p*K*~a~ = 3.5) at neutral pH in solution (4.8 kcal/mol) than to invoke the imino form of cytosine.

", "With regard to second position misreading of the UUU codon by tRNA^Ser^, it is also possible that the actual pathway when such a rare event occurs never involves the On-state of the monitoring bases observed crystallographically, but instead progresses through the Off-state with a lower energetic penalty.", "\n\nAs argued earlier ([@B24]), the solvent exclusion effect of the monitoring rRNA bases leads to the existence of both low selectivity Off-states and high selectivity On-states, where the latter seem to mainly pertain to the second codon position. ", "These high selectivity states will in practice very rarely be populated by non-cognate tRNAs under physiological conditions, simply because they are too high in energy and, consequently, rejection from the ribosome instead becomes the preferred route for incorrect tRNAs.

", "And are there precedents from the 17th century, before the congealment of functional harmony?", "\n\nA:\n\nIf I may offer a different analysis of the excerpt in question, it appears to me that the progression moves as thus:\nI6/3 - ii - V6/5 - I\nIntermediary arpeggiations are upper-tertian embellishment that essentially just serves as smooth harmonic leading between chords. ", " This is a very common progression for the period and a very common progression for JS Bach. ", " A iii9 is such a weak chord that, as others have mentioned, its use would be negligible, and it certainly wouldn't stand up in a background Schenkerian Analysis.", "\nHaving played through all of JS Bach's 371 Harmonized Chorales, I can tell you that I cannot recall a time where he ever used a iii chord in a cadence, or even as part of an anticipation. ", " Anticipation suggests non-chord tones and/or dissonance. ", " A iii chord is merely an upper-tertian extension of a I chord, and therefore is glossed over aurally. ", " I think it would be very difficult to distinguish a iii as a plausible anticipation aurally.", "\nDid JS Bach use iii chords at all? ", " Absolutely. ", " Sometimes to prolong I, sometimes to serve different connective functions, but I would say never at a cadence; not unless it was re-purposed as a secondary dominant/leading tone chord\nAs you might already know, mediant and chromatic mediant relationships did not become popularly in music until at least Beethoven (moving from I to bVI in developments! ", "Of course, you can reason that he went to the relative major of the subdominant minor - two ways of getting to the same place.) ", "If someone has an earlier example than Beethoven, feel free to share!", "\nI mention this because it is important to remember the time period. ", " During the 17th century, composers were not in the habit of thinking vertically. ", " Yes, they were conscious of vertical intervals (you must be to resolve your counterpoint correctly), however, composers did not think in vertical blocks like so many composers do today. ", " By and large, composers thought linearly, and creating their harmonic progressions as embellishments of a 1st-Species framework (Hint: this is one reason why Schenkerian analysis works in this period!). ", "Apart from the larger, intended harmonic motion (note the first beat of each measure in the example), the motion in between facilitates the prolongation of chord tones through upper-tertian harmony, and as such, should be seen moreover as an extension of those larger, horizontal harmonic shapes.", "\nIf you took this thought literally, the passage is reduced to a progression of I6/3-ii-I which, in Schenkerian analysis, the ii would be seen as a passing tone between F# and D, with the whole passage resulting in a prolongation of I. \nAs this is only an excerpt and we are not analyzing the entire piece or movement, it is difficult to determine exactly how important any of the chord outlines are in the excerpt. ", "Because of this reasoning and the given excerpt, I am not being strict in my thoughts concerning harmonic downbeats, and, as I mentioned above, inserted the V6/5 in my analysis above.", "\n\nA:\n\nI'm inclined to agree with @dwn. ", "The relative major here isn't particularly tonicised: it is just emphasised a bit by melodic motion through the upper auxiliary, and a slowdown of harmonic rhythm. ", "It is otherwise just a natural conclusion to the preceding sequence. ", "It's the next 2 bars that start to look a bit more like a conventional cadence, only Bach reinterprets D in the second half of the 2nd bar as the seventh of a dominant 7th on E and moves to A, and thence to E, using the figuration of the last bar of your example. ", "\nThe nature of the piece is very much \"toccata\": Bach isn't going to make any cadences before the end that aren't undercut in some fashion, and the easiest way to end a sequence without stopping is just to change the figuration (and harmonic rhythm in this case), and start a new sequence. ", "\n\nAs for the WTC example, I think it is proper to say that the entire bass figuration after the tie is an anticipation. ", "Look at the outline it takes up to and including the low F: E-A-C-F. Then take a look at how he delays the resolution of the suspension over the F to emphasise the IV7 sonority.", "\nThe A in specific is an anticipation of a note that isn't there: if he had continued the melodic sequence (up a 3rd, down a 5th) in the bass, the note immediately following F would have been A. That, however, wouldn't have confirmed F as the root as well as C does, and wouldn't have allowed the ascending scale segment to set up ii6 (which is anticipated on the 4th beat of the bar). ", "The setup in the second half of the bar, as he has it, can be read as IV7, vi6, ii, vi 6-4 (and thence ii6), and also more simply as an elaboration with passing notes of IV7 - the ambiguity, I think, is deliberate, but would have been somewhat broken if he used A in the bass after the low F. There's even a little ambiguity as to whether the D [semiquaver] in the descant [in the figuration] on the 4th* [3rd] beat is a neighbouring* [passing] tone or a resolution of the suspension, which throws the real weight of resolution onto the start of the next bar* [beat].", "\nNow here's the interesting notion: what happens immediately after the low F is suggesting a harmonic continuation of the \"up a 3rd, down a fifth\" movement with its suggestion of vi and ii. ", "Notice too that there is a pattern working through the entire bar, that of anticipating the following harmony by a variety of means. ", "I haven't analysed the entire prelude, but I would not be surprised to see that pattern showing up a lot.", "\nThe A in question is thus something of an anticipation of a \"pensato\", and yeah, I think Bach was sneaky enough to do something like that. ", "I don't think there's any question that the harmony in the first half of the measure is the dominant 7th on C: the A in question doesn't have enough weight (unprepared, on the 4th [semi]quaver of the bar* [2nd beat]) to become a root.", "\nThe main point to take away from all this, I think, is that Baroque composers, including Bach, didn't necessarily see all the voice leading as a figuring of the bass: a lot of notes (even in the bass) would be considered non-harmonic tones, and those could be used both freely and motivically, as was done here. ", "The A in question can be seen as a kind of nota cambiata that helps to trace a broken chord on F and anticipates the following harmony through melodic means. ", " \nEdit: The last sentence of the fourth paragraph (2nd after the break) should read \"There's even a little ambiguity as to whether the D semiquaver in the descant in the figuration on the 3rd beat is a passing tone or a resolution of the suspension, which throws the real weight of resolution onto the start of the next beat.\"", "\nThe last sentence of the 6th paragraph should read \"I don't think there's any question that the harmony in the first half of the measure is the dominant 7th on C: the A in question doesn't have enough weight (unprepared, on the 4th semiquaver of the 2nd beat) to become a root.\"", "\nThis is the problem of doing an analysis of this sort in the wee hours of the morning: I become innumerate. ", "<wry grin>\n\nA:\n\nIt's easy to see a figure consisting of a stack of thirds, and think that this represents the chord. ", "But this isn't necessarily the case. ", "The figures here could more plainly be seen as merely ornamenting a central pitch with upper and lower auxiliary tones, a third above and below. ", "It may seem odd to think of notes a third away as neighbors, since that term is technically used only for stepwise motion, but the key is that this is a rapid figuration, and it is always the first note of each group which is repeated (thrice), and is always on the beat. ", "The other notes act primarily as unaccented decorations or ornaments, and would certainly be seen as non-functional if they were only a step away, instead of a third.", "\nI'm trying to be careful about calling them \"non-functional\" rather than \"non-harmonic\" because they notes may indeed be harmonic (and usually are, though not always), but they are less important in determining the harmony. ", "IOW, the harmony does not depend on these ornaments.", "\nThus I would progressively simplify the figure as follows (again, I'm using N and P -- Neighbor and Passing tones, in a very loose, and technically wrong manner):\n\nBased on this reading, I've prepared a series of four reductions (separated by double bars) which demonstrates my analysis. ", "Note that I've also included the measure preceding the three that you posted, as it helps to indicate the linear nature of this progression. ", "I've also converted the meter to a more straightforward 3/4 for no particular reason. ", "You'll probably have to right-click -> View Image in order to read the thing at full size.", "\n\nFor the most part, all I've done here is replace the elaborate figure with a simpler dotted figure that emphasizes the functional accented note, and the falling thirds motif. ", "You'll note the clash in the penultimate beat between the stepwise A-G-F&sharp in the R.H. and the skipwise (A-F&sharp-D) in the L.H.\nIn the R.H., I've removed the repeated-octave notes in the third beat of each bar (incorporating them into the previous note an octave lower), and I've lengthened the accented notes where they bleed into the next chord. ", "With those actions done, it was natural to view the R.H. as consisting of two voices: the second imitates the first a beat later and a fifth lower, and the remaining sixteenth notes act as upward resolutions for implied suspended sevenths. ", "In the L.H. I've merely removed the unaccented tones, as if they were passing tones. ", "This reveals the passage progresses in fifths, instead of thirds.", "\nIn the R.H. I've removed the unaccented sixteenth notes (which were doubling the bass notes), and I've made the previously implied 7-6 suspensions explicit. ", "In the L.H., I've also gotten rid of the repeated octaves. ", "This represents what I see as the pure 3-voice counterpoint that underlies this progression.", "\nI've further removed the alto voice, and the third beat of the bass (which is always the fifth of the following note) in order to emphasize the linear nature of the progression.", "\n\nMy harmonic analysis comes from levels 2 and 3, and allocates one chord per beat. ", "I'll leave off the implied sevenths from the chord symbols, since they aren't actually written (except for the final A7).", "\nG Em/G C&sharpdim | F&sharpm D/F&sharp Bm | Em C&sharpdim/E A7 | D\nIV (ii6) vii | iii (I6) vi | ii (vii6) V7 | I\nYou'll notice that within each bar, the chords are dropping by a third each beat, then raising a fourth across the bar lines. ", "If you were to remove the intermediate chords on beat two (in parenthesis) -- which are all first inversion chords that retain the same bass note as the previous chord -- then you're left with a simple circle of fifths progression. ", "If you further remove the third beat chords, you're left with a simple descending scale, as in reduction 4:\nIV - iii - ii - I\n\nFrom the harmonic analysis, we can also see why the confusion arises: most of the time, when the figure occurs, it is ornamenting the third of the current chord. ", "For example, in the first measure, in the first beat, it occurs on the B, which is the third of the G chord. ", "On the second beat it occurs (in the bass) on the third of the E minor chord (which happens to be in first inversion, so the ornamenting notes a third below end up conveniently playing the root. ", "On the third beat, the figure occurs on the E in the R.H. (which is the third of the C&sharp diminished). ", "But in that third beat, it also occurs on the chord root in the L.H., so the decorating notes end up being a third beneath the root. ", "For the most part, this note a third beneath the root doesn't interrupt the flow of the harmony too much (it actually helps to stabilize the diminished chord) but in the penultimate measure, it does slightly weaken the dominant harmony there, by having that F&sharp that clashes with the rest of the A7 chord.", "\n\n" ]
