Abstract:
Purpose: To compare the load–velocity (L-V) relationship between bench-press exercises performed using 4 different grip widths, to determine the association between the anthropometric characteristics and L-V profile, and to explore whether a multiple linear-regression model with movement velocity and subjects’ anthropometric characteristics as predictor variables could increase the goodness of fit of the individualized L-V relationship. Methods: The individual L-V relationship of 20 men was evaluated by means of an incremental loading test during the bench-press exercise performed on a Smith machine using narrow, medium, wide, and self-selected grip widths. Simple and multiple linear-regression models were performed. Results: The mean velocity associated with each relative load did not differ among the 4 grip widths (P ≥ .130). Only body height and total arm length were correlated with the mean velocity associated with light and medium loads (r ≥ .464). A slightly higher variance of the velocity attained at each relative load was explained when some anthropometric characteristics were used as predictor variables along with the movement velocity (r2 = .969 [.965–.973]) in comparison with the movement velocity alone (r2 = .966 [.955–.968]). However, the amount of variance explained by the individual L-V relationships was always higher than with the multiple linear-regression models (r2 = .995 [.985–1.000]). Conclusions: These results indicate that the individual determination of the L-V relationship using a self-selected grip width could be recommended to monitor relative loads in the Smith machine bench-press exercise.

Abstract:
This study is intended to investigate the patterns for the temporal and spatial changes of catastrophic river floodings which took place in the Lower Yellow River, based on the available records collected from historical documents, and rearranged in a GIS database. A series of catastrophic river floodings from AD 960 to 1938 was reconstructed, and their temporal and spatial variations were analyzed, which leads to the conclusions, among others. (1) The increasing trend of frequency of catastrophic river floodings in the Lower Yellow River is not so significant in the past 1000 years. (2) Most dike breachings and overtoppings occurred near the apex of the Yellow River Alluvial Fan, and the number of dike breaching and overtopping was gradually reduced as the elevation decreased. (3) Under different spatio-temporal backgrounds, dike breaching and overtopping developed either downstream or upstream, which is evidenced by both the downstream movement for large temporal and spatial scales in dike breaching and overtopping places in AD 1128–1344 and 1391–1447 and the upstream movement for small temporal and spatial scales in AD 960–969, 1730–1761, and 1807–1819.

Abstract:
Tsar Peter was a ruler who was active in the sphere of church policy, and is pictured to have been a deep believer himself. He is credited with the fact of granting the title of patriarch to the Bulgarian archbishop, which most probably occurred under the framework of the agreement of 927 (?933/934). The act sym­bolically completed the process of acquiring full maturity and independence by the Church of Bulgaria. Peter, as the first Bulgarian ruler, had to face a serious problem of heresy. Be­ing fully aware of responsibility for orthodoxy of his subjects’ creed, he was de­termined enough to take precautions in order to stifle the development of the Bo­gomil heresy. However, his actual actions (except for his consulting the patriarch) and their results are impossible to pinpoint. On the other hand, it should be stressed that, during the rule of tsar Peter, the Bulgarian monasticism lived through a period of considerable development. The tsar contributed to that progress, though, unfortunately, details of the phenomenon are impossible to determine. Peter himself became a monk before his death, and subsequently his personal worship evolved around his involvement in the monas­tic movement.

O presente estudo, baseado na metodologia da sociologia histórica, faz uma análise comparativa entre os autores GENOVESE ( 1988) e REGO (1 968). O primeiro se refere à escravidão negra nos Estados Unidos da América, o segundo, ao jogo de luta dançada denominado capoeira, o qual teve suas origens num Brasil — Colônia, cujo regime era escravocrata. A partir desta análise percebo que há, tanto num como noutro, no que diz respeito ao negro, situações de vida similares que desencadeiam semelhantes formas de luta e de submissão. No caso específico do Brasil, há a origem da capoeira, um movimento corporal de resistência negra. The present study, based in the methodology of historical sociology, makes a comparative analysis between GENOVESE (1988) and REGO (1 969). The first one refers to the black slavery in the United States of America, the second one, he refers to the play of flight danced denominated Capoeira, which had its origins in a Colony Brazil. Starting from that analysis I notice that there is, so much in an as in other, in what it says respect to the black, similar life situations that unchain fellow creatures flight forms and submission. In the case of Brazil, there is the origin of Capoeira's play, a corporal movement of black resistance.

Abstract:
The contemporary persecution of Burma’s Rohingya has rapidly evolved from isolated episodes of communal violence into a global humanitarian crisis. The article analyses the evolution of the recent violence in Rakhine State from 2012 to the present. Specifically, I argue that Buddhist nationalist monks, including members of the ‘969’ Movement and Ma Ba Tha, in concert with the Burmese government, have acted as authoritative voices in society, depicting the Rohingya ethno-religious group as an existential threat to the country’s majority Buddhist population. As such, hate-filled rhetoric has provided a politically unstable Burmese regime with an ideological justification for human rights abuses committed in Rakhine State. This phenomenon is analysed through Barry Buzan and Ole Waever’s securitization thesis as a means of better understanding the discursive relationship among Buddhist nationalist monks, the Burmese government and the Burmese Buddhists. Ontologically, this article focuses on anti-Rohingya discourse and major episodes of violence in western Burma’s Rakhine State from 2012 to 2018. As a discursive process, securitization has not merely amplified Islamophobia within Burma, but significantly endangers future generations of Rohingya civilians.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT: The aim of this work was to determine the main species of stranded seabirds at the Northeastern coast of Brazil in addition to the most frequent causes of stranding and mortality. The study was conducted in a monitored area for three years (2012-2014), from the coastline of south Alagoas through north coast of Bahia encompassing 254km of coast. The seabirds found alive during the monitoring were sent to rehabilitation, clinically examined and the carcasses were removed, necropsied and histopathologically analyzed. A total of 1.347 seabirds were found stranded. Of these, 378 were found alive and sent to rehabilitation. From the 969 dead seabirds 806 were unsuitable for necropsy, being only 163 submitted to necropsy and histopathological analysis. Calonectris borealis, Puffinus gravis and Puffinus puffinus were the main seabirds stranded in the studied area. Most stranding occurred from March to June with an increase during April and May for the most species of seabirds. The main clinical signs of stranded seabirds consisted of inappetence, apathy, low body score, hypothermia, flying or movement difficulty and prolonged recumbency. Natural causes followed by infectious diseases and anthropogenic environmental factors were the main causes of death of seabirds stranded on the Northeastern coast of Brazil.

Abstract:
1. The technique of intracortical microstimulation (ICMS), supplemented by single-neuron recording, was used to carry out an extensive mapping of the face primary motor cortex. The ICMS study involved a total of 969 microelectrode penetrations carried out in 10 unanesthetized monkeys (Macaca fascicularis). 2. Monitoring of ICMS-evoked movements and associated electromyographic (EMG) activity revealed a general pattern of motor cortical organization. This was characterized by a representation of the facial musculature, which partially enclosed and overlapped the rostral, medial, and caudal borders of the more laterally located cortical regions representing the jaw and tongue musculatures. Responses were evoked at ICMS thresholds as low as 1 microA, and the latency of the suprathreshold EMG responses ranged from 10 to 45 ms. 3. Although contralateral movements predominated, a representation of ipsilateral movements was found, which was much more extensive than previously reported and which was intermingled with the contralateral representations in the anterior face motor cortex. 4. In examining the fine organizational pattern of the representations, we found clear evidence for multiple representation of a particular muscle, thus supporting other investigations of the motor cortex, which indicate that multiple, yet discrete, efferent microzones represent an essential organizational principle of the motor cortex. 5. The close interrelationship of the representations of all three muscle groups, as well as the presence of a considerable ipsilateral representation, may allow for the necessary integration of unilateral or bilateral activities of the numerous face, jaw, and tongue muscles, which is a feature of many of the movement patterns in which these various muscles participate. 6. In six of these same animals, plus an additional two animals, single-neuron recordings were made in the motor and adjacent sensory cortices in the anesthetized state. These neurons were electrophysiologically identified as corticobulbar projection neurons or as nonprojection neurons responsive to superficial or deep orofacial afferent inputs. The rostral, medial, lateral, and caudal borders of the face motor cortex were delineated with greater definition by ICMS and these electrophysiological procedures than by cytoarchitectonic features alone. We noted that there was an approximate fit in area 4 between the extent of projection neurons and field potentials anti-dromically evoked from the brain stem and the extent of positive ICMS sites.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract:
Chlamydia trachomatis is a bacterial pathogen that can cause serious reproductive harm. We describe a class of stochastic branching processes and their application in modelling the growth of an infection by Chlamydia. Using simulations we show that the model can reproduce biological phenomena of interest, and we show the variability in outcomes of infections under the same parameter conditions. We further speculate how this model might be used to explain long-term adverse reproductive sequelae. References Y. M. AbdelRahman and R. J. Belland. The chlamydial developmental cycle.

Abstract:
AbstractIn surgery of the aging face, operative adjustments of the superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) enhance facial contours. The senior author has observed that the standard deep plane face lift entry points on the SMAS do not provide as much tissue movement in a vertical direction as high-SMAS deep plane face lift entry points. In this study, tissue movement was measured comparing the conventional SMAS entry point with a high-SMAS entry point for deep plane face lifts. Institutional review board approval was obtained. Fourteen facelift patients were enrolled, 10 female and 4 male. Average age was 63.4 (50–81) years. Tissue movement at three points along the jaw line was measured intraoperatively. Standard SMAS entry point suspension resulted in average vertical movements of 6.4, 10.3, and 13.8 mm and average horizontal movements of 3.5, 5.7, and 6.5 mm. High-SMAS entry point resulted in average vertical movements of 11.8, 17.9, and 24.1 mm and average horizontal movements of 5.8, 9.8, and 9.9 mm. This resulted in a 77.3% increase (p = 0.03) in vertical movement and a 61.4% increase (p = 0.02) in horizontal movement with a high-SMAS entry compared with standard SMAS entry. The high-SMAS entry point for a deep plane facelift resulted in a significant increase in lift for both the horizontal and vertical vector on the facial skin flap when compared with the conventional entry.

Abstract. Time domain reflectometry (TDR) was used to monitor soil water conditions and to evaluate infiltration characteristics associated with rainfall into a volcanic-ash soil (Hydric Hapludand) with a low bulk density. Four 1 m TDR probes were installed vertically along a 6 m line in a bare field. Three 30 cm and one 60 cm probes were installed between the 1 m probes. Soil water content was measured every half or every hour throughout the year. TDR enabled prediction of the soil water content precisely even though the empirical equation developed by Topp et al. (1980) underestimated the water content. Field capacity, defined as the amount of water stored to a depth of 1 m on the day following heavy rainfall, was 640 mm. There was approximately 100 mm difference in the amount of water stored between field capacity and the driest period. Infiltration characteristics of rainfall were investigated for 36 rainfall events exceeding 10 mm with a total amount of rain of 969 mm out of an annual rainfall of 1192 mm. In the case of 25 low intensity rainfall events with less than 10 mm h-1 on to dry soils, the increase in the amount of water stored to a depth of 1 m was equal to the cumulative rainfall. For rain intensity in excess of 10 mm h-1, non-uniform infiltration occurred. The increase in the amount of water stored at lower elevation locations was 1.4 to 1.6 times larger than at higher elevation locations even though the difference in ground height among the 1 m probes was 6 cm. In the two instances when rainfall exceeded 100 mm, including the amount of rain in a previous rainfall event, the increase in the amount of water stored to a depth of 1 m was 65 mm lower than the total quantity of rain on the two occasions (220 mm); this indicated that 65 mm of water or 5.5% of the annual rainfall had flowed away either by surface runoff or bypass flow. Hence, approximately 95% of the annual rainfall was absorbed by the soil matrix but it is not possible to simulate soil water movement by Darcy's law over a long period at farm level due to the local differences in rainfall intensity.

Abstract:
In this article presented new data about movements activity of the Baikal seal (Pusa sibirica) — endemic of the Lake Baikal, obtained using satellite telemetry from July 2019 to March 2020. The average distances during the day was 9.9 ± 2.7 SE km for females, 17.0 ± 2.1 km for males, range of movements during the observation period was up to 5459 km for females and up to 8220 km for males. The most active movements occurred in August and December for males and in November for females. In October, males and females moved the least actively, which may be associated with their movement to shallow, rapidly freezing bays and sores. A sharp decline in activity also took place in January-February, when seals probably began a “settlement” ice period. Data consistent with previous tagging of subadult Baikal seals in 1990–1991. We obtained lower values of covered distances and average indicators for the month for females compared to males. However, we not found statistically significant differences between males and females, and question of differences in movement between subadult males and females still open.

Abstract:
We monitored the movements of 97 female and 15 male juvenile American black ducks (Anas rubripes) in the vicinity of Moosehom National Wildlife Refuge in eastern Maine and southwestern New Brunswick from September through mid-December, 1985–1987. Movements were described by estimating home ranges and radial movements from the primary roost marsh. Overall home range sizes averaged 4987 ha (range 54 – 28 070 ha), and maximum distances moved from the roost averaged 9.9 km (range 0.9–42.8 km). Home ranges were linear (linearity index 2.8), and home range area and distance of movements from the roost both increased monthly. Ducks that used >15% riverine habitat had larger home ranges and moved greater distances from the roost than ducks using <15% riverine wetlands. Movements did not differ between ducks usually alone and those usually in flocks. Juvenile black ducks moved in small flocks and were often alone (34% of 355 observations). Most ducks showed fidelity to one roost-marsh complex from September until migration in late November. Daily and seasonal movement patterns were similar to those predicted for refuging systems.

Neurophysiol. 78: 939–959, 1997. These experiments were designed to examine the effects of inactivating separately each of the major cerebellar nuclear regions in cats on the execution and retention of a previously learned, operantly conditioned volitional forelimb movement. The experiments test the postulates that the cerebellar nuclei, and particularly the interposed nuclei, contribute substantially to the spatial and temporal features of the interjoint coordination required to execute the task and that the engram necessary for the retention of this task is not located in any one of the cerebellar nuclei. All cats were trained to perform a task in which they were required to reach for and grasp a vertical bar at the sound of a tone and move the bar to a reward zone through a template consisting of two straight grooves in the shape of an inverted “L.” After the task was learned, the effects of inactivating separately each nuclear region (the fastigial, interposed, and dentate nuclei) using muscimol microinjections were determined. Data were analyzed by quantifying several features of the movement's kinematics and by determining changes in the organization of the reaching component of the movement using an application of dimensionality analysis, an analysis that examines the correlation among the changes in joint angles and limb segment positions during the task. The retention of the previously learned task also was assessed after each injection. Injections of each nuclear region affected temporal and spatial features of the learned movement. However, the largest effects resulted from inactivating the interposed nuclei. These effects included an increased length of the reach trajectory, an accentuated deviation of the wrist trajectory from a straight line, cyclic movement of the distal extremity as the target was approached, a difficulty in grasping the bar, altered temporal features of the movement, and a highly characteristic change in the dimensionality measurements. The changes in dimensionality reflected a decreased correlation (linear interdependence) of the joint angular velocities coupled with an increased correlation among the linear velocities of markers located on the joints themselves. Related but less consistent changes in dimensionality resulted from fastigial injections. The motor sequence required to negotiate the template could be executed after the nuclear microinjections, indicating that retention of the motor sequence was not affected by the inactivation of any of the cerebellar nuclei. However, in two of the five animals, some decreases in performance were observed after dentate injection that were not characteristic of changes related to an effect on retention. These data suggest that the cerebellum plays an important role in regulating the consistent, stereotypic organization of complex goal-directed movements, including the temporal correlation among joint angle velocities. The data also indicate that the retention of the task is not dependent on any of the individual cerebellar nuclear regions. Consequently, these structures are unlikely to be critical storage sites for the engram established during the learning of this task.

Abstract:
Context: New methods are being validated to easily evaluate the knee joint position sense (JPS) due to its role in the sports movement and the risk of injury. However, no studies to date have considered the open kinetic chain (OKC) technique, despite the biomechanical differences compared with closed kinetic chain movements. Objective: To analyze the validity and reliability of a digital inclinometer to measure the knee JPS in the OKC movement. Design: The validity and intertester and intratester reliability of a digital inclinometer for measuring knee JPS were evaluated. Setting: Sports research laboratory. Participants: A total of 18 athletes (11 males and 7 females; 28.4 [6.6] y; 71.9 [14.0] kg; 1.77 [0.09] m; 22.8 [3.2] kg/m2) voluntary participated in this study. Main Outcomes Measures: Absolute angular error (AAE), relative angular error (RAE), and variable angular error (VAE) of knee JPS in an OKC. Results: Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and standard error of the mean (SEM) were calculated to determine the validity and reliability of the inclinometer. Data showed excellent validity of the inclinometer to obtain proprioceptive errors compared with the video analysis in JPS tasks (AAE: ICC = .981, SEM = 0.08; RAE: ICC = .974, SEM = 0.12; VAE: ICC = .973, SEM = 0.07). Intertester reliability was also excellent for all the proprioceptive errors (AAE: ICC = .967, SEM = 0.04; RAE: ICC = .974, SEM = 0.03; VAE: ICC = .939, SEM = 0.08). Similar results were obtained for intratester reliability (AAE: ICC = .861, SEM = 0.1; RAE: ICC = .894, SEM = 0.1; VAE: ICC = .700, SEM = 0.2). Conclusions: The digital inclinometer is a valid and reliable method to assess the knee JPS in OKC. Sport professionals may evaluate the knee JPS to monitor its deterioration during training or improvements throughout the rehabilitation process.

Abstract:
AbstractConsidering the large and repetitive loads associated with jumping in team sports, automatic detection and quantification of jumping may show promise in reducing injury risks. The aim of this study was to validate commercially available inertial-movement analysis software to detect and quantify jumping in team sports. In addition, the test-retest reliability of the software to quantify jumping was assessed. Seventy-six healthy male participants completed a team sport circuit six times containing seven common movements (including three countermovement and two single-leg jumps) whilst wearing an inertial sensor (Catapult Sports, Australia). Jump detection accuracy was assessed by comparing the known number of jumps to the number recorded by the inertial movement analysis software. A further 27 participants separately performed countermovement and single-leg jumps at 33%, 66% and 100% of maximal jump height over two sessions. Jump height quantification accuracy was assessed by comparing criterion three-dimensional motion analysis-derived heights to that recorded by the inertial movement analysis software. Test-retest reliability was assessed by comparing recorded jump heights between both testing sessions. Catapult’s inertial movement analysis software displayed excellent jump detection accuracy (96.9%) and test-retest jump height quantification reliability (ICC: 0.86 [countermovement jump], 0.88 [single-leg jump]). However, significant mean bias (–2.74 cm [95% LoA –10.44 – 4.96]) was observed for jump height quantification. Overall, Catapult’s inertial movement analysis software appears to be a suitable method of automatically detecting jumping in team sports, and although reliable, caution is advised when using the IMA software to quantify jump height.

Abstract:
Prostheses and exoskeletons need a control system able to rapidly understand user intentions; a noninvasive method is to deploy a myoelectric system, and a pattern recognition method to classify the intended movement to input to the controller. Here we focus on the classification phase. Our first aim is to recognize nine movements of the shoulder, a body part seldom considered in the literature and difficult to treat since the muscles involved are deep. We show that our novel sEMG two-phase classifier, working on a signal window of 500[Formula: see text]ms with 62[Formula: see text]ms increment, has a 97.7% accuracy for nine movements and about 100% accuracy on five movements. After developing the classifier using professionally collected sEMG data from eight channels, our second aim is to implement the classifier on a wearable device, composed by the Intel Edison board and a three-channel experimental portable acquisition board. Our final aim is to develop a complete classifier for dynamic situations, considering the transitions between movements and the real-time constraints. The performance of the classifier, using three channels, is about 96.9%, the classification frequency is 62[Formula: see text]Hz, and the computation time is 16[Formula: see text]ms, far less than the real-time constraint of 300[Formula: see text]ms.

Abstract:
Purpose:To examine the difference in distance measured by two global positioning system (GPS) units of the same model worn by the same player while performing movements common to team sports.Methods:Twenty elite Australian football players completed two trials of the straight line movement (10, 20, 40 m) at four speeds (walk, jog, stride, sprint), two trials of the changes of direction (COD) courses of two different frequencies (gradual and tight), and five trials of a team sport running simulation circuit. To assess inter-unit variability for total and high intensity running (HIR) distance measured in matches, data from eight field players were collected in three Australian Hockey League (AHL) matches during the 2009 season. Each subject wore two GPS devices (MinimaxX v2.5, Catapult, Australia) that collected position data at 5 Hz for each movement and match trial. The percentage difference ±90% confidence interval (CI) was used to determine differences between units.Results:Differences (±90% CI) between the units ranged from 9.9 ± 4.7% to 11.9 ± 19.5% for straight line running movements and from 9.5 ± 7.2% to 10.7 ± 7.9% in the COD courses. Similar results were exhibited in the team sport circuit (11.1 ± 4.2%). Total distance (10.3 ± 6.2%) and HIR distance (10.3 ± 15.6) measured during the match play displayed similar variability.Conclusion:It is recommended that players wear the same GPS unit for each exercise session to reduce measurement error. The level of between-unit measurement error should be considered when comparing results from players wearing different GPS units.

Full text
Abstract:
1. Intracellular recordings were obtained from 21 amacrine cells and 12 ganglion cells in the isolated, superfused retina-eyecup of the rabbit. Cells were subsequently labeled with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) or N-(2-aminoethyl)-biotinamide hydrochloride (Neurobiotin) for morphologic identification. 2. Initial experiments performed on three amacrine cells and three ganglion cells showed that 1 microM tetrodotoxin (TTX) abolished all spiking. This included both large-amplitude and small-amplitude spikes recorded in many amacrine cells, indicating that they are mediated by voltage-gated sodium channels. 3. The center-receptive-field size of 18 amacrine cells and 9 ganglion cells was measured with the use of a 50-microns-wide/6.0-mm-long rectangular slit of light that was displaced along its minor axis (parallel to the visual streak) in steps as small as 3 microns. The retina was then bathed in 1 microM TTX, or individual cells were injected with 50 mM QX-314, a quatemary lidocaine derivative, to abolish all spiking, and the center-receptive field of each cell was then remeasured. 4. Although TTX blocked spiking in all ganglion cells (dendritic diameters ranging from 302 to 969 microns), it produced no significant change in the size of their center-receptive fields. This finding argues that passive, electrotonic spread of synaptic inputs to ganglion cell dendritic arbors is adequate for efficient propagation from terminal branches to the soma; active propagation via voltage-gated sodium channels plays no apparent role. 5. In contrast, TTX and QX-314 had variable effect on the receptive fields of amacrine cells, which was related to the size of their dendritic arbors. Whereas TTX had no significant effect on the receptive-field size of amacrine cells whose dendritic arbors were < 525 microns across, the center-receptive fields of larger amacrine cells were reduced, on average, by 40%; QX-314 produced a very similar average reduction of 39%. Moreover, for these larger cells, there was a direct relationship between the magnitude of the reduction in receptive-field size produced by TTX or QX-314 and the size of a cell's dendritic arbor. This relationship was true whether the change in receptive-field size was measured in absolute terms or as percent reduction from control values. 6. Interestingly, TTX and QX-314 also significantly reduced the amplitude of slow potentials recorded in amacrine cells by an average of 22 and 24%, respectively. However, the amplitude of slow potentials recorded in ganglion cells were relatively uneffected by TTX. 7. These findings are consistent with the idea that, for amacrine cells with dendritic arbors spanning > 525 microns, active propagation of synaptic signals mediated by voltage-gated sodium channels is necessary for efficient movement of information across a cell's dendritic arbor and thus plays a major role in shaping their receptive fields. Although the TTX effects may also reflect an indirect contribution from altered synaptic input derived from presynaptic spiking neurons, the strong similarity between the effects of TTX and QX-314 argues that any such contribution was minor. For smaller amacrine cells, passive, electrotonic spread of signals appears adequate for efficient propagation within their limited dendritic arbors.

Abstract:
We investigated whether the perception or production of a given line length in normal subjects varies according to where in peripersonal space the line is perceived or produced. We also investigated the influence of the direction of movement used to make the line. In Experiment 1, blindfolded normal subjects were asked to estimate distances while the examiner moved the subject's hand in proximal (medial) or distal (lateral) space, moving centripetally or centrifugally. The subjects showed a spatial effect, perceiving the same length as shorter in proximal space than distal space. This result could be related to either a proximal spatial attentional bias or an anisometric representation of spatial distances. In Experiment 2, we attempted to dissociate these hypotheses by studying blindfolded normal subjects, who were requested to produce horizontal lines of a given length (100 or 200 mm) in proximal versus distal peripersonal space using centripetal or centrifugal movements. Centrifugal movements in proximal space were the longest; centrifugal movements in distal space were the shortest; in between were the proximal centripetal and distal centripetal movements which did not differ from each other. These results suggest that in peripersonal space the perception of length in normal subjects is most consistent with anisometric mental representation where the size of mental representations of length units decreases as a function of the distance from the subject's midsagittal plane. Length production, however, may depend on an interaction of the anisometric mental representation and the premotor/intentional factors. (JINS, 2004, 10, 913–919.)

Abstract:
We studied the time course and magnitude of cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV) changes in the middle cerebral artery (MCA) and the regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) in the MCA territory during stimulation of the left sensorimotor cortex. Healthy right-handed male subjects were examined during performance of right-hand finger movement sequences, vibratory stimulation, and somatosensory discrimination. In somatosensory discrimination there were significant increases of the mean CBFV (4.8 +/- 9.9 cm/s; P < 0.01) and the mean rCBF (10.2 +/- 4.2 ml.100 g-1.min-1; P < 0.01), whereas no significant changes of the mean CBFV and rCBF occurred in finger movement sequences or vibratory stimulation. During all stimulation sessions the mean CBFV changes increased rapidly and reached a first maximum 3.3 +/- 0.3 s after stimulation onset. Simultaneous measurements of relative mean CBFV changes in both MCAs revealed left-right differences during voluntary finger movement sequences (left MCA, 14.3 +/- 10.6%; right MCA, 0.9 +/- 11.6%; P < 0.001) corresponding to a higher mean rCBF change in the left MCA territory. In the two tasks involving finger movements there was an increase of the respiratory rates (4.3 +/- 3.8 breaths/min; P < 0.05) and the pulse rates (11.6 +/- 5.5 beats/min; P < 0.05), respectively. Our data demonstrate a correspondence of mean CBFV and rCBF changes evoked by sensorimotor activation in the human brain. Furthermore, cerebral hemodynamic changes related to motor activity are accompanied by cardiorespiratory effects.

Abstract Despite the extensive history of social movements around the world, the evolution of population mental health before, during, and after a social movement remains sparsely documented. We sought to assess over time the prevalence of depressive symptoms during and after the Occupy Central movement in Hong Kong and to examine the associations of direct and indirect exposures to Occupy Central with depressive symptoms. We longitudinally administered interviews to 909 adults who were randomly sampled from the population-representative FAMILY Cohort at 6 time points from March 2009 to March 2015: twice each before, during, and after the Occupy Central protests. The Patient Health Questionnaire-9 was used to assess depressive symptoms and probable major depression (defined as Patient Health Questionnaire-9 score ≥10). The absolute prevalence of probable major depression increased by 7% after Occupy Central, regardless of personal involvement in the protests. Higher levels of depressive symptoms were associated with online and social media exposure to protest-related news (incidence rate ratio (IRR) = 1.28, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.06, 1.55) and more frequent Facebook use (IRR = 1.38, 95% CI: 1.12, 1.71). Higher levels of intrafamilial sociopolitical conflict was associated with more depressive symptoms (IRR = 1.05, 95% CI: 1.01, 1.09). The Occupy Central protests resulted in substantial and sustained psychological distress in the community.

Abstract:
The author analyzes the formalized dimensions and forms of radical Islam in Indonesia, which in the 2000s were active within Indonesian political space. It is assumed that radical Islam develops as a heterogeneous phenomenon, and its feature of being secondary comes as systemic. The author believes that the radicals were unable to offer an original political program. Three Islamist organizations such as “Islamic Defenders Front”, “Indonesia without the Liberal Islam Network” and “the National Anti-Alcohol Movement” are analyzed in the article. The author studies various forms of Islamic radical activities, including anti-liberal demonstrations, criticism of ideological opponents, educational and social initiatives, anti-alcohol raids. The article reveals that the Front was an institutionalized form of Islamic radicalism, and the anti-liberal and anti-alcohol movements represented formally moderate organizations dependent on the Front, which cultivated a radical discourse. The author believes that after the prohibition of the Front in December 2020, anti-liberal and anti-alcohol movements can become the main exponents of radical sentiments in Indonesian Islam. The formal prohibition of the Front does not exclude the possibility of activization of Islamic fundamentalism supporters and their further radicalization.

Abstract:
This article explores the metaphorical identification of the tonic key as ‘home’ in relation to the first movement of Schubert's Piano Sonata in B♭, D.960. Rejecting conventional readings whereby a ‘foreign’ or ‘alien’ element is ultimately assimilated into the ‘home’ sphere, it argues that in this movement Schubert succeeds in doing the reverse, rendering the tonic ‘unhomely’ (unheimlich; ‘uncanny’) at a critical moment in the recapitulation. Schubert's practice in this instance is contrasted with that of Beethoven in selected middle-period works; and Schubert's own fragmentary continuity draft for the movement, as well as songs from Die Winterreise and Schwanengesang, are brought to bear on the investigation of ‘home’ and ‘das Unheimliche’.

Abstract Five juveniles of the imperial eagle were tracked during 2011-201 2. Movements were monitored in the western part of Slovakia and in the border area between Austria, Hungary and Slovakia. Three eagles came from the Záhorská nížina Lowlands and the others from the Malé Karpaty Mts and the Podunajská nížina Lowlands. Post-fledging movements were recorded in areas around the nests. Post-fledging areas covered a large territory (minimum convex polygons - 89, 941 , 969 km2). During the postfledging period the eagles carried out exploratory flights (1 2-33 km from the nest). One temporary settlement area (TSA) was identified in the border area between Austria, Hungary and Slovakia (minimum convex polygon - 68 km2). Two eagles with radio transmitters were recorded in this area. In the TSA and the post-fledging areas two habitat categories were dominant: arable land and forests. Heterogeneous agricultural areas were also important in the TSA (8%).

152 Background: To characterize the intra-fraction and inter-fraction prostate motion as tracked by the X-ray images of the implanted gold fiducials during stereotactic radiotherapy with CyberKnife. The published data have analysed the linear and angular prostate motion intrafraction and interfraction prostate motion among patients. We sought to quantify the same within each patient. Methods: Twenty Five patients with localized prostate cancer treated with CyberKnife radiosurgery between January 2013 and August 2015 were studied retrospectively. A data set constitutes the deviations derived from X-ray images obtained between two consecutive couch motions. Results: Included in the analysis were 3926 data sets. A total of 210 non-coplanar fields were used per fraction. The mean total treatment time for all fields per fraction was 36.13 minutes. The detected and corrected movements over all were in a range of ± 10.1 mm in linear direction (Right: mean 1.1±0.4 mm; Left: mean 1.0±0.6 mm; Superior: mean 0.7±0.3 mm; Inferior: mean 1.6±0.6 mm; Anterior: mean 1.6±0.7 mm; Posterior: mean 0.5±0.3 mm with maximum (max) movement range of Right max 9.9±6.4 mm, Left max 7.1±3.4 mm, Superior max 8.6±5.4 mm, Inferior max 10.1±8.5 mm, Anterior max 9.2±6.5 mm, Posterior max 8.4±2.9 mm) and angular movements were in a range of ± 6.7 deg in all directions (Right Angle: mean 0.6±0.3 deg; Left Angle: mean 0.6±0.3 deg; Head Up(H-U): mean 1.3±0.6 deg; Head Down(H-D): mean 1.4±0.6 deg; Counter-Clockwise movement (CCW): mean 0.7±0.3 deg; Clockwise movement (CW): mean 0.5±0.3 deg with max rotation range of Right angle max 2.4±2 deg, Left angle max 2.7±2 deg, H-U max 10.2±3.5 deg, H-D max 6.7±4.8 deg, CCW 4±2.9 deg, CW max 2.8±2.4 deg). There was an unpredictable change in prostate motion inter-fraction in each patient. But, a unique observation is that a predictable pattern exists for prostate motion intra-fraction within a patient. Change in the linear or angular prostate motion intra-fraction in any direction is not erratic. Conclusions: The linear and rotational prostate motion intra-fraction in any direction has a predictable pattern and any change is gradual and not erratic. The motion shows secular trend during the course of treatment.

Abstract:
Abstract The present article surveys the early stages of the Graeco-Syro-Arabic Melkite translation movement in Antioch, from the first known translation (the Graeco-Syriac version of the Life of St. Symeon the Stylite the Younger, BHG 1689) dating to 827/8 AD to the Antiochene translators Ibrāhīm the protospatharios, Gregory of Dafnūnā, Chariton of Aršāyā, and Yūḥannā ʿAbd al-Masīḥ (the compiler of the Antiochene Menologion), all of them disciples of the martyred patriarch of Antioch Christopher (d.967). It provides new evidence on each of these translators. Significantly, it re-dates Yūḥannā ʿAbd al-Masīḥ to the early eleventh century.
