Bamman, Marcas M., Mark S. F. Clarke, Daniel L. Feeback, Robert J. Talmadge, Bruce R. Stevens, Steven A. Lieberman, and Michael C. Greenisen. Impact of resistance exercise during bed rest on skeletal muscle sarcopenia and myosin isoform distribution. J. Appl. Physiol. 84(1): 157–163, 1998.—Because resistance exercise (REx) and bed-rest unloading (BRU) are associated with opposing adaptations, our purpose was to test the efficacy of REx against the effects of 14 days of BRU on the knee-extensor muscle group. Sixteen healthy men were randomly assigned to no exercise (NoEx; n = 8) or REx ( n = 8). REx performed five sets of leg press exercise with 80–85% of one repetition maximum (1 RM) every other day during BRU. Muscle samples were removed from the vastus lateralis muscle by percutaneous needle biopsy. Myofiber distribution was determined immunohistochemically with three monoclonal antibodies against myosin heavy chain (MHC) isoforms (I, IIa, IIx). MHC distribution was further assessed by quantitative gel electrophoresis. Dynamic 1-RM leg press and unilateral maximum voluntary isometric contraction (MVC) were determined. Maximal neural activation (root mean squared electromyogram) and rate of torque development (RTD) were measured during MVC. Reductions ( P < 0.05) in type I (15%) and type II (17%) myofiber cross-sectional areas were found in NoEx but not in REx. Electrophoresis revealed no changes in MHC isoform distribution. The percentage of type IIx myofibers decreased ( P < 0.05) in REx from 9 to 2% and did not change in NoEx. 1 RM was reduced ( P < 0.05) by 9% in NoEx but was unchanged in REx. MVC fell by 15 and 13% in NoEx and REx, respectively. The agonist-to-antagonist root mean squared electromyogram ratio decreased ( P < 0.05) 19% in REx. RTD slowed ( P < 0.05) by 54% in NoEx only. Results indicate that REx prevented BRU-induced myofiber atrophy and also maintained training-specific strength. Unlike spaceflight, BRU did not induce shifts in myosin phenotype. The reported benefits of REx may prove useful in prescribing exercise for astronauts in microgravity.

Abstract:
Background:There had been very limited data on the development of damage and mortality in an inception cohort of SLE patients who were recruited very soon after diagnosis.Objectives:This study aimed to analyse the development of damage and death in an inception cohort of SLE patients recruited within 1 year of diagnosis with up to 13 years of follow-up.Methods:This was a prospective multi-centre longitudinal study in the UK of SLE patients recruited within 12 months of achieving 1997 ACR revised criteria for SLE. Data were collected on BILAG-2004, BILAG2004-Pregnancy Index (during pregnancy), SLICC/ACR DI (SDI), cumulative drug exposure and death at every visit. Information on cardiovascular risk factors and antiphospholipid syndrome status were also collected. This study ran from 1st January 2005 to 31st December 2017. Mortality and development of damage were analysed.Results:There were 273 patients recruited (91.2% female, 59.3% Caucasian, 17.2% African/Caribbean, 17.2% South Asian) with mean age at recruitment of 38.5 years (SD 14.8). 97.8% had no damage at recruitment (2.2% had SDI score of 1). Median follow-up was 73.4 months (range: 1.8, 153.8) with total follow-up of 1767 patient-years.There were 13 deaths (4.8%): 76.9% female, 84.6% Caucasian, 15.4% South Asian, mean age 62.6 years (± SD 15.8) and mean disease duration 3 years (± SD 1.8). Causes of death were cancer in 5 (38.5%), infection in 3 (23.1%), ischaemic heart disease in 1 (7.7%) and unknown in 4 (30.8%).114 new damage items in 83 patients occurred during follow-up. The distribution of damage was musculoskeletal (21, 18.4%), ophthalmic (18, 15.8%), neuropsychiatric (18, 15.8%), renal (14, 12.3%), malignancy (12, 10.5%), cutaneous (7, 6.1%), GIT (7, 6.1%), cardiac (6, 5.3%), pulmonary (4, 3.5%), diabetes mellitus (4, 3.5%) and vascular (3, 2.6%). The rate of development of damage appears to be higher in the first 3 years which subsequently stabilised (Table 1).Table 1.Incidence rate of development of damage over period of follow-up at 3 yearly intervalsPeriod of follow-up (year)Person-years at riskNumber of new items of damageIncidence rate, per 1000 person-years (95% CI)0 – 3753.46079.6 (61.8, 102.6)3 – 6534.03158.1 (40.8, 82.6)6 – 9321.21237.4 (21.2, 35.8)9 – 12152.5532.8 (13.6, 78.7)> 125.90-Conclusion:Mortality is uncommon during the first 12 years of follow-up for newly diagnosed SLE patients. However, development of damage appears to be higher in the first 3 years before stabilizing to a lower rate subsequently.Acknowledgements:Versus Arthritis, VIfor PharmaDisclosure of Interests:Chee-Seng Yee Consultant of: Bristol Myer Squibb, ImmuPharma, Grant/research support from: Vifor Pharma, Vernon Farewell: None declared, Mohammed Akil: None declared, Peter Lanyon: None declared, Christopher John Edwards Consultant of: Glaxo Smith Kline, Roche, Grant/research support from: Glaxo Smith Kline, Roche, David Isenberg: None declared, Anisur Rahman: None declared, Lee-Suan Teh: None declared, Sofia Tosounidou: None declared, Robert Stevens: None declared, Ahtiveer Prabu: None declared, Bridget Griffiths: None declared, Neil McHugh: None declared, Ian N.

Abstract:
We test for sustainability of Turkey?s current account position between 1987 and 2009 using the intertemporal solvency model of Craig S. Hakkio and Mark Rush (1991) and Steven Husted (1992). According to this approach, the intertemporal budget constraint is satisfied if there is cointegration between exports and imports+ (which include imports, net interest income and unilateral transfer payments). We test for, and find evidence of, cointegration using the standard Johansen test as well as the Allan W. Gregory and Bruce Hansen (1996) test. The latter allows for a structural break in the cointegrating relation. Further, dynamic GLS estimation shows a statistically significant relation between exports and imports+, although, we reject strong current account sustainability. Our evidence suggests that Turkey remains vulnerable to reversals in capital flows, but we believe this vulnerability will diminish as the service component of trade increases.

Abstract:
Growing evidence supports the idea that patterns of gaze are important to human-machine trust, as they are to human-to-human trust (LaFrance & Mayo, 1976; Kendon, 1967), and indeed potentially all primate social dynamics (Emery, 2000). A growing literature explores trust and gaze toward anthropomorphic robots (Mutlu et al., 2009; Stanton & Stevens, 2014; Van de Brule et al., 2014, Hancock et al., 2011). Less work has investigated far-more-common non-anthropomorphic systems, despite evidence suggesting that operators deploy the same trust patterns toward such interface that they might toward fellow humans (Nass, 1996; Fogg & Nass, 1997), and that they change patterns of visual allocation based upon that trust (Hergeth et al., 2016; Geitner at al., 2017). In critical operational settings, such as driving while multitasking, maximum safety and stability is associated with maximum visual attention devoted to the road (Hancock & Warm, 1989; Strayer, Drews & Johnston, 2003; Sawyer et al., 2014). Social gaze strategies deployed toward an interface suggest competition for these resources, and so applied consequences in terms of adopting appropriate information gathering strategies.

Abstract:
Throughout the twentieth century, elite US law schools have been presented as sites of power, admiration, influence and envy. Robert Stevens, in the opening of his seminal 1983 work Law School, suggested that foreign lawyers looked wistfully at elite US law schools. At a time when US political institutions—and even law schools—seem to have lost much of their former global luster, this book investigates whether in reality the elite US models ever proved so attractive to foreigners. Collectively the contributions cast doubt on traditional narratives that point toward the globalization or homogenization of legal education. They challenge the idea that many educators beyond the United States believed that the adoption of American models would lead to better legal education and scholarship, better legal systems, better lawyers, and better governance. And they illuminate the cultural and political significance of attempts to transplant US models. The book consists of historical examinations of American contacts within legal education in fourteen countries: China, Japan, Israel, the Philippines, Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, France, Brazil, Sweden, Estonia, England, Australia, and Canada. And it includes critical commentary from two leading American law professors, along with a founding chapter from Bruce Kimball, the leading historian of Harvard Law School.

Abstract:
On a mid-October evening, a group of fathers gathered around a conference table and met each other for the first time. None of the men had ever thought of himself a "support group kind of guy" and each felt entirely out of place. In fact, nothing about their lives felt normal anymore. The Group: Seven Widowed Fathers Reimagine Life chronicles the challenges and triumphs of seven men whose wives died from cancer and were left to raise their young children entirely on their own. Brought together by tragedy, the fathers - Neill, Dan, Bruce, Karl, Joe, Steve, and Russ - forged an uncommon bond. Over time, group meetings evolved into a forum for reinvention and transformed the men in unexpected ways. Through the fathers' poignant interactions, The Group illustrates that while some wounds never fully heal, each of us has the potential to construct a new and meaningful future. Rosenstein and Yopp, co-leaders of the support group, weave together the fathers' stories with contemporary research on grief and adaptation. The Group traces a compelling journey of healing and personal discovery that no book has ever captured before. The men's touching efforts to care for their families, grieve for their wives, and reimagine their futures will inspire anyone who has suffered a major loss.

Abstract:
I have intensively focused on the International Task Force on Hepatitis B Immunisation – led by James Maynard, Alfred Prince and Richard Mahoney; the Children’s Vaccine Initiative led by or influenced by Scott Halstead, Philip Russell and Roy Widdus; the Bill and Melinda Gates’ Children’s Vaccine Programme led by Mark Kane and James Maynard; the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization created by Mark Kane, Tore Godal, Jacques-Francois Martin, Steve Landry and Amy Bateson; the Rockefeller Foundation’s Public-Private Partnership project single-handedly championed by Ariel Pablos-Mendez (with the support of Timothy Evans) – many of which were ultimately adopted by the Gates Foundation and (incorrectly) seen as originating with it; and the global polio eradication campaign conceived by William Foege, Alan Hinman, Ciro de Quadros and run by Bruce Alyward. Driven by a powerful moral imperative and social consciousness, these dozen and a half men fought to make things happen that under normal circumstances would not have happened in the fight to save the lives of countless children using vaccines and immunisation as their tools. Among their supporters have been many engaged and committed vaccine champions within the scientific community: scientist/activists working for what they believed was clearly the ‘Greater Good’.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter establishes the historiographical context for the book by selectively reviewing current scholarly debates about the extent of religious change and secularization in modern Britain. Since (surprisingly) historians have made limited contributions to this contested field for the period after c.1970, the focus is on describing and referencing the published work of four sociologists of religion (Steve Bruce, David Voas, Grace Davie, and Linda Woodhead) and two theologians (Robin Gill and David Goodhew). Although these six individuals by no means constitute an exhaustive list of active researchers, they neatly exemplify the spread of opinions and interpretations when it comes to secularization. Bruce (who has assumed the mantle, from Bryan Wilson, as advocate-in-chief of the classical formulation of the secularization thesis) sits at one end of the spectrum, while Goodhew (who veers, in some of his arguments, towards embracing desecularization or resacralization) is at the other.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter provides essential context by outlining the recent historiography of secularization in Britain and the sources of religious statistics, on which subsequent chapters are largely based. The work of leading contributors to the debates about British religious change is summarized, notably Steve Bruce, Hugh McLeod, Callum Brown, Jeffrey Cox, Jeremy Morris, and Simon Green. In this book, secularization is used as a convenient shorthand descriptor for the waning social significance of religion, rather than an invocation of the classic theory of secularization as a by-product of modernization. Specifically, the focus is on secularization in relation to the individual, particularly religious allegiance (subsuming affiliation and membership of churches and Sunday schools) and churchgoing, being the two performance indicators of religious belonging and behaving most susceptible to long-term quantification. Data on them were variously gathered by the state (comparatively little), the Churches, and social investigators (including local religious censuses).

Abstract:
From the beginning the men had known, better than we did, that six sessions would not be enough. Changing the group to an open-ended format had been the right move, but we hadn’t resolved the question of when the group should end. The fathers were clearly piecing their lives back together and the reasons for continuing to meet were becoming less clear. As the group approached the three-year mark, attendance lagged. We wondered if it had run its course. One evening, we asked the men whether they wanted to keep meeting or if it was time to stop. We acknowledged that our work together had become increasingly collaborative but wanted them to know that they were not beholden to us. We never intended for the group to continue in perpetuity. Our focus had been to help them grieve and move forward. If they had reached that point, then they should to feel free to leave. The fathers seemed surprised when we raised this topic. They quickly dismissed the idea that they felt obligated to remain in the group. Uncharacteristically, Russ spoke first, “I’ve never felt pressured. I come because it helps.” The topic of discussion during that session was whether it was time to stop meeting. Each father knew that he would eventually leave but up until that moment Steve’s departure had been the only other occasion on which we discussed endings. Bruce reframed the issue: “Unless getting engaged and moving across state lines is the only ticket out the door, I guess we need to figure this out.” Karl approached the subject with his typical analytical style. “It sounds like there are two issues on the table. First, how does any one of us know when it’s time to stop coming? For Steve, it was easy: He got married and moved away. For the rest of us, the decision comes down to whether coming here is still helpful. Obviously, each of us has to answer that for ourselves. The second question is whether it’s time for the group as a whole to end.
