Abstract:

The history of Southeast Missouri State University parallels that of other teacher education institutions. It started as Southeast Missouri Normal School in 1873 and reached university status in 1972. A department of Geology and Geography was established in 1909, becoming the Geography Department in 1915. In 1924, the sciences were combined into the Science Department. In 1960, this became the Division of Science and Mathematics and the Department of Earth Sciences was formed. An earth science major began in 1937, with separate geology and geography majors established in 1958. Recently the Department has developed more specialized, job-oriented programs in mining geology and in cartography. Since 1983 the Department has also operated a field camp, headquartered on the campus of Dixie College, St. George, Utah.

Abstract:

The Chinle Formation and the lower part of the overlying Wingate Sandstone and Moenave Formation were deposited in fluvial, lacustrine, paludal, and eolian environments during the Norian and Rhaetian stages of the Late Triassic (~230 to 201.3 Ma), during which time the climate shifted from subtropical to increasingly arid. In southern Utah, the Shinarump Member was largely confined to pre-Chinle paleovalleys and usually overprinted by mottled strata. From southeastern to southwestern Utah, the lower members of the Chinle Formation (Cameron Member and correlative Monitor Butte Member) thicken dramatically whereas the upper members of the Chinle Formation (the Moss Back, Petrified Forest, Owl Rock, and Church Rock Members) become erosionally truncated; south of Moab, the Kane Springs beds are laterally correlative with the Owl Rock Member and uppermost Petrified Forest Member. Prior to the erosional truncation of the upper members, the Chinle Formation was probably thickest in a southeast to northwest trend between Petrified Forest National Park and the Zion National Park, and thinned to the northeast due to the lower Chinle Formation lensing out against the flanks of the Ancestral Rocky Mountains, where the thickness of the Chinle is largely controlled by syndepositional salt tectonism. The Gartra and Stanaker Members of the Ankareh Formation are poorly understood Chinle Formation correlatives north of the San Rafael Swell. Osteichthyan fish, metoposaurid temnospondyls, phytosaurids, and crocodylomorphs are known throughout the Chinle Formation, although most remains are fragmentary. In the Cameron and Monitor Butte Members, metoposaurids are abundant and non-pseudopalatine phytosaurs are known, as is excellent material of the paracrocodylomorph Poposaurus; fragmentary specimens of the aetosaurs Calyptosuchus, Desmatosuchus, and indeterminate paratypothoracisins were probably also recovered from these beds. Osteichthyans, pseudopalatine phytosaurs, and the aetosaur Typothorax are especially abundant in the Kane Springs beds and Church Rock Member of Lisbon Valley, and Typothorax is also known from the Petrified Forest Member in Capitol Reef National Park. Procolophonids, doswelliids, and dinosaurs are known but extremely rare in the Chinle Formation of Utah. Body fossils and tracks of osteichthyans, therapsids, crocodylomorphs, and theropods are well known from the lowermost Wingate Sandstone and Moenave Formation, especially from the St. George Dinosaur Discovery Site at Johnson Farm.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Two types of unusual concretions with similar biotic contents but markedly different shapes and distributions were found in close stratigraphic proximity within the Lower Jurassic Whitmore Point Member of the Moenave Formation in St. George, Utah. Both types of concretions formed in lacustrine sediments and contain abundant ganoid fish scales, numerous ostracode carapaces, and apparent rip-up clasts. Elongate, cylindrical concretions developed in parallel and regularly spaced rows in one horizon, and comparatively flat and irregularly shaped and distributed concretions formed in an overlying layer only a few centimeters above. Microprobe and Raman analyses of concretion samples reveal abundant hematite in both concretions as well as groundmass minerals dominated by silica in the cylindrical concretions and dolomite in the flat concretions. The abundance of fish skeletal debris in concretions from two consecutive horizons may suggest recurring fish mass mortality in ancient Lake Dixie, the large lake that occupied the St. George area during the Early Jurassic. We propose a model for the formation of the concretions based on their shapes, distributions, and chemistry. In this model, accumulations of disarticulated fish debris were colonized and consolidated by microbial mats and shaped by oscillatory flow (in the case of the cylindrical concretions) or lack thereof (in the case of the flat concretions). Then, after burial, groundwater chemistry and possibly the metabolic activities of microorganisms led to the precipitation of minerals around and within the masses of fish material. Finally, diagenetic alteration changed the mineral makeups of the cylindrical and flat concretions into what they are today.

Abstract:

New invertebrate trace fossils from the Lower Jurassic Moenave Formation at the St. George Dinosaur Discovery Site at Johnson Farm (SGDS) continue to expand the ichnofauna at the site. A previously unstudied arthropod locomotory trace, SGDS 1290, comprises two widely spaced, thick, gently undulating paramedial impressions flanked externally by small, tapered to elongate tracks with a staggered to alternating arrangement. The specimen is not a variant of any existing ichnospecies, but bears a striking resemblance to modern, experimentally generated crayfish walking traces, suggesting a crayfish or crayfish-like maker for the fossil. Because of its uniqueness, we place it in a new ichnospecies, Siskemia eurypyge. It is the first fossil crayfish or crayfish-like locomotion trace ever recorded.

Abstract:

This paper describes two large, high-quality experimental data sets of ground motions collected with locally dense arrays of seismometers deployed on steep mountainous terrain with varying slope angles and topographic features. These data sets were collected in an area of central-eastern Utah that experiences frequent and predictable mining-induced seismicity as a means to study the effects of topography on small-strain seismic ground motions. The data sets are freely available through the George E. Brown, Jr. Network for Earthquake Engineering Simulation data repository ( NEEShub.org ) under the DOI numbers 10.4231/D34M9199S and 10.4231/D3Z31NN4J. This paper documents the data collection efforts and metadata necessary for utilizing the data sets, as well as the availability of supporting data (e.g., high-resolution digital elevation models). The paper offers a brief summary of analyses conducted on the data sets thus far, in addition to ideas about how these data sets may be used in future studies related to topographic effects and mining seismicity.

Abstract:

A new microconchid tentaculitoid,Microconchus utahensisnew species, is described from the Lower Triassic (Spathian) Virgin Formation of two localities (Hurricane Cliffs and Beaver Dam Mountains) near St George, Utah. This small encrusting tubeworm, previously referred to erroneously asSpirorbis, has a laminated shell microstructure containing minute pores (punctae). The population from deeper water facies of the Beaver Dam Mountains is more abundant than that from Hurricane Cliffs and the tubes are significantly larger in size. Although represented by only one species (M. utahensis), microconchids are by far the most dominant component of the otherwise impoverished sclerobiont assemblage of the Virgin Formation, which also includes rare cemented bivalves and probable foraminifers. Whereas the remainder of the Virgin fauna is quite diverse, the low diversity of encrusters suggests a slow recovery from end-Permian mass extinctions. Indeed, more typically Mesozoic sclerobiont assemblages dominated by cyclostome bryozoans and serpulid polychaetes did not appear until the Late Triassic, probably Rhaetian.

Abstract:

Carbon-isotope stratigraphy of the Furongian (stage 10; Upper Cambrian) and Tremadocian (lowermost Ordovician) reveals distinct variations from the carbonates of the Berry Head and Watts Bight formations of the East Isthmus Bay section that accumulated in a shallow-marine setting on the eastern Laurentian platform in a passive margin setting in western Newfoundland, Canada. The East Isthmus Bay δ13C values show insignificant correlation with their Sr (R2 = 0.04), Mn (R2 = 0.001) and Fe (R2 = 0.02) counterparts, implying preservation of at least near-primary C-isotope compositions. The investigated section is largely fossil poor, but the δ13C profile shows a pattern with distinct variations that can be matched with those of the western Laurentian Lawson Cove Auxiliary Boundary Stratigraphic Section and Point (ASSP) section, Utah, USA. Therefore, it was possible to reconstruct a conodont biozonal scheme by matching the δ13C profile with its counterpart from the Lawson Cove ASSP section. At the base of the East Isthmus Bay section, the δ13C profile exhibits a broad excursion (the top of the Herllnmaria – Red Tops Boundary), which can be matched with the base of the Eoconodontus Zone (mid-Furongian), followed by an enrichment trend through the Cordylodus intermedius Zone (top Furongian). A positive excursion (Hirsutodontus simplex spike) is recorded in the Cordylodus intermedius Zone (top Cambrian), and a prominent positive peak characteristic for the Cordylodus lindstromi Zone is recorded from the top of the investigated section. The δ13C values of the Newfoundland carbonates are generally ∼1‰ Vienna Pee Dee Belemnite lower than those of Lawson Cove, which is likely attributable to a relatively higher productivity and (or) organic burial in the Utah region.

Abstract:

In the Shadows of Dresden: Modernism and the War Landscape focuses on British-American test complexes and lithographs devised to understand German and Japanese military targets of World War II. Project sites stretched from England and Scotland to Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Utah, and Florida. Vignettes of Axis-built environments featured only those forms and details that were deemed essential, complemented by the abstracted target maps. Together these models and maps inaugurated a new way of looking at cities and built environments as war landscapes. In this article Karen J. Weitze studies the roles of the participating architects, engineers, artists, and art historians—Marc Peter Jr., John Burchard, Henry Elder, Gerald K. Geerlings, Eric Mendelsohn, Antonin Raymond, Walter Gropius, Konrad Wachsmann, Arthur Korn, Felix James Samuely, E. S. Richter, Paul Zucker, Hans Knoll, Albert Kahn, Ludwig Hilberseimer, George Hartmueller, I. M. Pei, Erwin Panofsky, Paul Frankl, and Kurt Weitzmann—within the setting of the modern movement, and evaluates the historic obscurity of the wartime landscapes against the collective human moment that was Dresden.

Abstract:

Abstract Objectives To determine the relationship among body fat, cardiorespiratory fitness, and carotid artery thickness in a large group of older adults. Methods Data were collected at the Huntsman World Senior Games held in St. George, Utah between 2016–2019. Participants visited the Dixie Convention Center (St. George, UT) for free health screenings associated with the Games. The data were cross-sectional; for repeat participants only the most recent results were analyzed. The measures of interest for this study included: body fat, body mass index (BMI), cardiorespiratory fitness (predicted VO2max), and carotid artery intima media thickness (CIMT). Body fat percentage was measured using bioelectrical impedance. BMI was calculated via weight (kg) and height (m2). Predicted VO2max was calculated at rest using a heart rate monitor and the validated Polar fitness test. CIMT was obtained via images of the right and left carotid arteries, visualized and captured with a portable diagnostic ultrasound system. Differences by sex were determined using independent t-tests. Multiple regression was used to examine associations between measures. Results For this analysis, 649 participants (232 women; 326 men; 68.13 ± 8.71 y, 25.15 ± 4.92 kg/m2) were included. Women had a higher body fat percentage than men (32.00 vs. 22.42%) (t < 0.0001). However, men had a significantly higher BMI (26.28 vs. 24.01 kg/m2) and cardiorespiratory fitness (40.22 vs. 38.82 ml/kg/min) (t < 0.05) than women. Accounting for age and sex, body fat % significantly predicted CIMT thickness (P < 0.05) but BMI (P = 0.0853) and cardiorespiratory fitness did not predict CIMT thickness (P > 0.05). Conclusions CIMT thickness appears to be related to body fat percentage among older adults. Subsequent studies could examine how reduction in body fat changes CIMT thickness and how that influences risk of chronic disease, such as stroke. Funding Sources There was no funding for this project.

Abstract:

36 Background: ASCO published a position statement regarding home infusion of anticancer therapy in June 2020. This statement recommends independent research to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of home infusions. Intermountain Healthcare (IM) incorporated this statement into its oncology care with an IRB-approved, prospective single-arm pilot study to determine the safety and feasibility of home administration of checkpoint inhibitor (CPI) immunotherapy with synchronous telemedicine visits. Methods: Patients with cancer receiving treatment at Intermountain Medical Center and Intermountain Cancer Center St. George were screened for enrollment into an IRB-approved, non-randomized pilot study of 20 patients. Eligibility criteria required patients to receive a CPI for an FDA-approved indication, live in Washington County or Salt Lake County, Utah, and have commercial payer coverage of CPI home infusion. Eligible patients were required to receive 2 doses of CPI at an infusion center, and patients who experienced an infusion reaction were excluded from receiving home infusion. Home infusion nurses are trained in oncology, CPIs, and home infusion reaction protocol. During synchronous video visits, infusion nurses are trained to perform the hands-on portions of the physical exam. A financial analysis estimated cost to IM and commercial payers for routine and home CPI infusions. Results: 622 patients were screened, of which 104 were receiving a CPI. 64 patients lived in an eligible county and 19 patients had commercial payer coverage. Of patients on CPIs, 8.7% (9/104) met all eligibility criteria accounting for 1.4% (9/622) of all patients with cancer screened (Table). Financial analysis estimated $829 cost (excluding drug cost) to IM for standard infusion reimbursement compared to $599 for in-home CPI infusions, accounting for savings of $230 per infusion. Majority of cost savings are from elimination of infusion center facilities fee ($495). Analysis includes $269 for home infusion nurse wages. Subsequent analysis for commercial payer SelectHealth estimates $270 reimbursement savings for the payer. Conclusions: Home immunotherapy infusions are estimated to be cost effective for both IM and commercial payers. However, lack of drug coverage and the rural demographics of Utahns with cancer are barriers to home CPI infusions. The pilot study was discontinued per infeasibility stopping criteria.[Table: see text]

Abstract:

The IAU Working Group on Libraries was officially recognized for the first time in the Transactions of the IAU XXIA Reports on Astronomy (McNally 1991), but librarians were involved in Commission 5 activities before that (largely due to the efforts of George A. Wilkins, president of the Commission from 1982 to 1988, see Transactions of the IAU XXA Reports on Astronomy, Swings 1988). Wayne Warren (NASA GSFC, MD, USA) and Helen Knudsen (Calech, CA, USA) were the group's first chairpersons, Brenda Corbin (U.S. Naval Observatory) became Helen Knudsen's successor in 1990. Since 1996, Fionn Murtagh (School of Computer Science, Queen's University of Belfast, Northern Ireland) and Uta Grothkopf (European Southern Observatory, Germany) have been co-chairs.

Abstract:

Abstract Introduction: Sepsis is a severe systemic inflammatory response to infection that manifests with widespread inflammation as well as endothelial and coagulation dysfunction that may lead to hypotension, organ failure, shock, and death. Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) is a complication of sepsis involving systemic activation of the fibrinolytic and coagulation pathways that can lead to multi-organ dysfunction, thrombosis, and bleeding, with a two-fold increase in mortality. Elevated levels of nucleosomes released from apoptotic cells have been detected in the blood of severe sepsis patients. Procalcitonin (PCT), a propeptide of calcitonin, is a marker of inflammation of infectious origins. Both nucleosomes and PCT are associated with the inflammatory and infectious processes that play a key role in the pathogenesis of sepsis and DIC. No single biomarker or laboratory test can effectively diagnose DIC; accordingly, the International Society on Thrombosis and Hemostasis (ISTH) has developed a diagnostic algorithm based on clinical parameters that uses platelet count, prothrombin time (PT), fibrin related marker (D-dimer) and fibrinogen levels to calculate a DIC score. This study lays the groundwork for the development of a diagnostic algorithm using several markers of inflammation and infection and DIC score as parameters in assessing severity of sepsis-associated coagulopathy (SAC) in a clinical setting. Materials and Methods: De-identified serial plasma samples from patients diagnosed with sepsis-associated coagulopathy (n=137) were obtained from the University of Utah under an IRB approved protocol. The citrated plasma samples were collected from adult patients in the ICU upon admission and ICU days 4 and 8 In addition, plasma samples from healthy volunteers (n=50) were purchased from George King Biomedical (Overland, KS). Platelet count, prothrombin time, International normalized ratio (INR), D-dimer and fibrinogen levels were used to assign International Society of Thrombosis and Hemostasis (ISTH) DIC scores. Plasma samples were analyzed for procalcitonin (PCT) (Abcam, Cambridge, MA) and extracellular nucleosomes (Roche Diagnostics, Indianapolis, IN)) using a commercially available ELISA methods. In addition, markers of inflammation including interleukin 6 (IL-6), interleukin 8 (IL-8), interleukin 10 (IL-10) and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF α) were measure using the Biochip Array from Randox (Crumlin, County Antrim, UK). Results: DIC scores were calculated using the ISTH criteria and categorized into sepsis without DIC, non-overt DIC, and overt DIC. The levels of PCT were elevated in all three groups compared to normal (p<0.05). In addition, the patients with overt DIC had a higher level of PCT on day 0 and 4, compared to patients with non-overt DIC or sepsis alone. On day 8, the overt and non-overt DIC patients had similar levels of PCT. PCT data is shown in Table 1 (mean ± SEM). Nucleosome levels were also measured and compared between groups. Similarly, markers of inflammation, including IL-6, IL-8, IL-10 and TNF α were higher in the overt DIC group compared to the other groups on day 0 and day 4. By day 8, most of the patients initially diagnosed with overt DIC had transitioned into the non-overt group or died prior to the blood draw. The PCT levels correlated with nucleosomes, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10 and TNF α levels (p<0.05, Spearman r>0.20). Conclusions: This study demonstrates the diagnostic and prognostic value of profiling several biomarkers of inflammation and infection in patients with sepsis-associated DIC to assess the severity of illness. Elevated levels of PCT, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10 and TNF-α were observed in most patients with sepsis and DIC. Additionally, the levels of these markers show significant positive correlations to each other and to DIC score. Currently, no single biomarker can be used to confirm the diagnosis of DIC in patients with sepsis. This study provides an initial framework in developing a multiparametric profile of biomarkers in DIC for diagnostic and prognostic purposes.

Abstract:

Background : Sepsis is characterized by a simultaneous activation of inflammation and hemostasis in response to microbial infection. This systemic inflammatory response is due to the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, pro-coagulants and adhesion molecules from immune cells and/or damaged endothelial tissue. Simultaneous activation of coagulation and fibrinolysis leads to consumption coagulopathy and severe vascular dysfunction. Profiling of biomarkers of hemostatic activation and inflammation along with the measurement of coagulation parameters has provided useful data in the understanding of the pathogenesis of sepsis. This study was designed to profile biomarkers of hemostatic activation, inflammation and endothelial dysfunction along with the measurement of coagulation parameters in a defined clinically confirmed sepsis population in conjunction with an IRB approved clinical trial. Materials & Methods: Citrated blood samples were collected from sepsis patients with suspected or confirmed infection, and organ dysfunction as defined by a SOFA ³ baseline. Plasma samples from septic shock patients were collected in citrated tubes within 72 hours of ICU admission under an IRB approved protocol in conjunction with an ongoing trial at the University of Utah and Veteran's Affair FFC Health Care System VAMC. Normal controls were comprised of commercially available 25 male and 25 female citrated plasma samples (George King Biomedical, Overland Park, Kansas City). Such biomarkers as CRP, PAI-1, D-Dimer, vWF and microparticle tissue factor complex (MP-TF) were measured using a commercially available sandwich ELISA methods. Nitric oxide (NO) levels were measured using a commercially available Griess reaction based colorimetric method. PT/INR, aPTT and fibrinogen measurements were based on clot based assays. All results were compiled as mean ± SD and SEM. Correlation analysis was carried out to determine relevance between different parameters. Results: Most of the biomarkers of hemostatic activation and inflammation were elevated in patients with sepsis as shown on table 1a, CRP (66 fold) and D-Dimer (23 fold) showed the most pronounced increase in comparison to the control. Other parameters also showed increase levels including MP-TF (5.3 fold), PAI-1 (3.5 fold), vWF (3.1 fold) and NO (3.0 fold). Clotting parameters such as PT/INR (2.0 fold), aPTT (2.5 fold) and fibrinogen (2.0 fold) were also significantly elevated in the sepsis patients. These differences were significant (p value ≤0.0009) for all of the parameters except for NO (p value 0.0937) and fibrinogen (p value 0.4694). As shown on table 1b, there was no correlation between various biomarkers and fibrinogen in the sepsis patients. Summary & Conclusion: In comparison to the control group, the sepsis patients showed wide variations in all of the parameters investigated in this study. The marked prolongation of PT and aPTT are suggestive of both the extrinsic and intrinsic pathway defects and consumption of clotting factors. The aPTT data showed wider scatter in comparison to PT data. The fibrinogen levels were also elevated and nearly 1/3 of the patients showed >1000 mg/dL levels. The markedly higher level of CRP in the sepsis group are indicative of severe inflammatory response. Marked elevation of D-Dimer is indicative of endogenous fibrin formation and its consumption consistent with activation of secondary fibrinolysis. MP-TF, vWF and PAI-1 were also increased in the sepsis patients suggesting marked endothelial dysfunction. This is consistent with increased NO levels which may be due to induction of iNOS in the endothelial lining of sepsis patients. These results further underscore the multifactorial pathophysiology of sepsis which results in the dysregulation of hemostasis, upregulation of inflammatory responses and generalized endothelialopathy. Profiling of the biomarkers included in this study and coagulation parameters may be helpful in the risk stratification and clinical management of patients with sepsis and related disorders.

Abstract:

Introduction: Systemic mastocytosis (SM) is a rare, clonal, hematopoietic neoplasm characterized by excessive proliferation and hyperactivation of abnormal mast cells (MCs). Approximately 95% of patients with SM harbor the KIT D816V mutation within the KIT receptor tyrosine kinase, which results in constitutive activation of the KIT receptor. Abnormal activation of KIT leads to increased proliferation, survival, and hyperactivation of MCs, which can cause debilitating constitutional symptoms such as pruritus, flushing, headaches, bone pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and life-threatening anaphylaxis, across all SM subtypes.Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based detectionof the KIT D816V mutation in bone marrow (BM) aspirates or other extracutaneous tissues is an important tool to confirm clinical and pathological diagnosis. In addition, genomic determination of the KIT D816V variant allelic fraction (VAF) in peripheral blood (PB) or BM can serve as a potential prognostic tool and may also be used to monitor treatment efficacy over time. However, low numbers of neoplastic MCs in BM or PB samples, especially from patients with non-advanced forms of the disease (ISM and smoldering SM) can result in misdiagnosis and underestimation of disease burden. Here, we report on the performance of an adapted ddPCR assay compared with NGS for measuring the KIT D816V VAF in PB samples from patients with moderate to severe ISM and symptoms inadequately controlled with best supportive care enrolled in part 1 (randomized dose finding part to determine recommended dose) of the ongoing, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 2 PIONEER clinical study (NCT03731260) of avapritinib, a potent and selective inhibitor of KIT D816V mutant kinases. Methods : Part 1 of PIONEER included 39 patients (3 cohorts with 10 patients at 25, 50 and 100 mg of avapritinib, and a placebo cohort of 9 patients) with a confirmed diagnosis of ISM based on World Health Organization criteria and moderate-to-severe symptoms based on Total Symptom Score as measured on the ISM-System Assessment Form (ISM-SAF). Samples of PB were collected at screening for all enrolled patients in part 1 and were evaluated by local quantitative and qualitative KIT testing, central ddPCR assay for detection of KIT D816V, and central NGS (TruSight™ Myeloid Panel) for KIT D816V and other co-mutations (central assays performed by MolecularMD, Portland, OR). Results were expressed as the percentage of patient PB samples testing positive for KIT D816V mutation (all genomic assays) and the log percent of VAF as measured by both central assay methods. Correlations of KIT D816V VAF to objective measure of MC burden, including serum tryptase levels and BM MC numbers, were performed. KIT D816V VAF was also evaluated serially in each patient over the treatment period. Results: The central ddPCR assay method detected the KIT D816V mutation in 37/39 (95%) of PB samples compared with 11/39 (28%) assayed by NGS and 30/39 (80%) of PB samples assayed locally (Table). ddPCR also demonstrated ~30-fold greater sensitivity over NGS for measuring VAF: median percent VAF (range) by ddPCR was 0.36 (0.02-30) and by NGS was 11 (1.9-31) (Figure). The lower limit of detection of VAF by ddPCR on PB samples was 95-fold lower than that of NGS (0.02% and 1.9%, respectively). In addition, ddPCR provided greater diagnostic sensitivity for ISM compared with serum tryptase >20 ng/mL (30/39, 77%) and presence of BM MC aggregates (35/39, 90%). Conclusions: The high-sensitivity ddPCR assay method detected the KIT D816V mutation in 95% of PB samples from patients with previously confirmed ISM, which provided greater sensitivity for detection of KIT D816V mutation than either NGS or local assessments, greater sensitivity over NGS for KIT D816V VAF in PB samples, and higher diagnostic sensitivity than clinical assessments of serum tryptase and BM MC aggregates. These results have implications for assay sensitivity in the diagnosis of SM and suggest that higher sensitivity testing for KIT D816V mutation using a minimally invasive PB ddPCR assay could be used as a screening tool to facilitate identification of ISM patients, including those with variable disease characteristics or low MC burden.

Abstract:

A central Problem of Bactrian Phonology, to which Georg Morgenstierne devoted the greater part of one of his last articles, is the origin of Postvocalic t, which is found in a small number of words of disputed etymology. Since OIr. postvocalic t generally gives Bactrian d, as in G[raeeo-Bactrian] οδο, M[anichean Bactrian] 'wd, 'wṭ[ud] ‘and’ <*uta or G κiρδo, M qyrd ‘made’ <*kṛta-,it seems that some oter orgin must be sought for Bactrian t—unless, indeed, G δ and τ may be regarded merely as alternative notations of [d], as has been Proposed. Such a Possibility was first suggested by G oτo ‘and’, which accoriding to W. B. Henning is ‘not differne from οδο ’, and which I. Gershevitch has explained either as a historical spelling or as a generalized sandhivariant of οδο. However, a crucial objection to the identifieation of οδο and οτο lies in the fact, the implications of which have not yet been fully appreciated, that they differ not only in form but also in function.

Abstract:

Background:Women represent an increasing proportion of the overall rheumatology workforce, but are underrepresented in academic rheumatology, especially in leadership roles [1].Objectives:The EULAR Task Force on Gender Equity in Academic Rheumatology has been convened to establish the extent of the unmet need for support of female rheumatologists, health professionals and non-clinical scientists in academic rheumatology and develop a framework to address this through EULAR and EMEUNET.Methods:To investigate gender equity in academic rheumatology, an anonymous web-based survey was targeted at the membership of EULAR and Emerging EULAR Network (EMEUNET) and their wider networks. The survey was developed based on a narrative literature review [1], best practice from The Association of Women in Rheumatology, a survey of task force members and face-to-face task force discussions. Personal experiences were explored and 24 potential interventions to aid career advancement were ranked. Statistics were descriptive with significance testing for male/female responses compared using chi-squared/t-tests. The level of significance was set at p<0.001.Results:A total of 301 respondents from 24 countries fully completed the survey. By profession, 290 (86.4%) were rheumatologists, 19 (6.3%) health professionals, and 22 (7.3%) non-clinical scientists. By gender, 217 (72.1%) were women, 83 (27.6%) men, and 1 (0.3%) third gender. By age, 203 (67.5%) were 40 or under. By ethnicity, 30 (10.0%) identified themselves as ethnic minority. A high proportion of respondents reported having experienced gender discrimination (47.2% total: 58.1% for women and 18.1% for men) and sexual harassment (26.2%: 31.8% and 10.8% respectively) (Figure 1). Chi-squared tests on the numbers on which these proportions were based showed statistically significant differences between women and men in having experienced gender discrimination (Χ2=36.959 (df=1), p <0.001) and sexual harassment (Χ2=12.633 (df=1), p <0.001). The highest-ranked interventions for career advancement regardless of respondents’ gender included: leadership skills training; speaking/presentation/communication skills training; information on training/career pathways; effective career planning training; support on grant writing applications; and high-impact scientific writing master-classes (Figure 2). Only 8 of 24 proposed interventions showed a significantly higher ranking (p<0.001) by female respondents and these typically related to promotion of female role models and gender-balance in committees, editorial boards and research funding (Figure 2).Figure 1.Perceived gender discrimination and sexual harassment, 301 responsesFigure 2.Mean perceived utility of potential interventions for career advancement by gender and statistically significant gender differences (p<.001), 300 responsesConclusion:The results of the survey will inform the development of task force policy proposals for interventions to support career advancement among EULAR and EMEUNET members. The identified interventions have potential to support career advancement of all rheumatologists, health professionals and non-clinical scientists regardless of gender.References:[1]Andreoli L, Ovseiko PV, Hassan N, Kiltz U, van Mens L, Gossec L, et al.

Abstract:

Abstract The 18 March 2020 Mw 5.7 Magna, Utah, earthquake was the largest earthquake in Utah since the 1992 ML 5.8 St. George earthquake. The geologic setting of the Magna earthquake is well documented by recent geologic mapping at 1:24,000 scale and 1:62,500 scale at and near the epicenter northeast of Magna, Utah. Subsurface fault modeling from surficial geologic mapping, structural cross sections, deep borehole data, and geophysical data reveals a complex system of faulting concentrated in the hanging wall of the Weber and Salt Lake City segments of the Wasatch fault zone including the Harkers fault, the West Valley fault zone, and the newly interpreted Saltair graben. Based on geologic and geophysical data (seismic and gravity), we interpret the mainshock of the Magna earthquake as having occurred on a relatively gently dipping part of the Salt Lake City segment, with aftershocks concentrated in the Saltair graben and West Valley fault zone. Postearthquake rapid reconnaissance of geological effects of the Magna earthquake documented liquefaction near the earthquake epicenter, along the Jordan River, and along the Great Salt Lake shoreline. Subaerial and subaqueous sand boils were identified in regions with roadway infrastructure and artificial fill, whereas collapse features were noted along the shores of the Great Salt Lake. Potential syneresis cracking and pooling in large areas indicated fluctuating groundwater likely related to earthquake ground shaking. The moderate magnitude of the Magna earthquake and minimal geological effects highlight the critical importance of earthquake research from multidisciplinary fields in the geosciences and preparedness on the Wasatch Front.

Abstract:

Abstract Spatial and temporal variation in stoichiometric and stable isotope ratios of animals contains ecological information that we are just beginning to understand. In both field and lab studies, stoichiometric or isotopic ratios are related to physiological mechanisms underlying nutrition or stress. Conservation and ecosystem ecology may be informed by isotopic data that can be rapidly and non-lethally collected from wild animals, especially where human activity leaves an isotopic signature (e.g. via introduction of chemical fertilizers, ornamental or other non-native plants or organic detritus). We examined spatial and temporal variation in stoichiometric and stable isotope ratios of the toes of Uta stansburiana (side-blotched lizards) living in urban and rural areas in and around St. George, Utah. We found substantial spatial and temporal variation as well as context-dependent co-variation with reproductive physiological parameters, although certain key predictions such as the relationship between δ15N and body condition were not supported. We suggest that landscape change through urbanization can have profound effects on wild animal physiology and that stoichiometric and stable isotope ratios can provide unique insights into the mechanisms underlying these processes.

Abstract:

Tulisan ini, menjelaskan tiga poin penting. Pertama, pengetahuan manusia dan konteksnya, kedua, kaitan pengetahuan manusia dan ideologi terhadap perilaku manusia dan ketiga, konteks perilaku manusia (pemimpin perubahan) dan kaitan dengan munculnya pemikiran yang bersifat sosiologis atau studi sosiologi. Berbagai jenis pengetahuan manusia, sebagaimana yang dikemukakan oleh Comte, Durkheim, Turner dan ahli lainnya berbeda, tetapi pada dasarnya tidak bertentangan. Peran para ahli dan atau pemimpin perubahan tidak hanya berkontribusi secara signifikan terhadap lahir dan berkembangnya ilmu pengetahuan (khususnya studi sosiologi), tetapi yang lebih mendasar adalah membangun nilai-nilai moral dan kemanusiaan. Pemimpin perubahan yang dimaksud, antara lain; Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, Jr.Martin Luther, Bung Karno, Bung Hatta, B.J. Habibie dan M. Jusuf Kalla. Muncul dan berkembangnya studi sosiologi, tidak dapat dilepaskan dengan kontribusi dari berbagai ahli atau tokoh perubahan. Termasuk J.J. Rousseau, Thomas Hobbes, Comte, Spencer, Durkheim, Weber, Marx dan Simmel). Pertanyaan penting dari Simmel “How society is possible”. Esai Georg Simmel ini, dibangun di atas gagasan bahwa seorang individu dapat mengembangkan dirinya sendiri sepenuhnya hanya dengan masuk ke dalam masyarakat tetapi tetap ditandai dengan "tambahan" atau "inti individualitas" yang tidak pernah sepenuhnya disosialisasikan. Pertanyaan/esai Simmel ini, mengispirasi banyak ahli dalam mengembangkan studi sosiologi. Akhirnya, tulisan ini menganggap penting memahami secara utuh setiap pemimpin perubahan (lokal/regional, nasional dan dunia) yang berorientasi dalam membangun nilai-nilai kemanusiaan dan untuk kemaslahatan manusia dan masyarakat.

Abstract:

Det här numret av Sociologisk Forskning är det första som helt görs av redaktionen på Södertörns högskola. Numret ges ut i en tid som tydligt präglas av den globala coronaviruspandemin. Redan i förra numret publicerade vi ett samtal mellan fyra svenska sociologer om pandemin och vårt samhälles hantering av den. I detta nummer efterlyser vi mer sociologisk forskning om hur samhället och människors liv har påverkats av coronakrisen och covid-19, genom en öppen anmodan (Call for papers) att skicka in artikelmanuskript med coronapandemirelaterad empirisk forskning till ett kommande temanummer av Sociologisk Forskning. Den tid i vilket detta nummer publiceras präglas också av de globala protester som inleddes efter det att en vit amerikansk polis dödade den 46-årige svarta mannen George Floyd. För dessa protester har den sociala rörelsen Black Lives Matter haft en avgörande betydelse. I det här numret publicerar vi en intervju med den amerikanska sociologen Jeffrey C. Alexander, en av de planerade huvudtalarna vid årets inställda Sociologidagarna. Intervjun kretsar främst kring Alexanders teori om den civila sfären, men behandlar även covid-19-pandemin, George Floyd och Black Lives Matter. I intervjun får Alexander frågan av Andrea Voyer, som tillsammans med Anna Lund har gjort intervjun, hur kultursociologin kan hjälpa oss att förstå den globala pandemin och den globala sociala rörelse som uppmärksammar svarta livs betydelse. Alexander svarar att en allmän sociologisk förståelse av covid-19-pandemin skulle kunna uppmärksamma betydelsen av klass, bristfälliga sjukvårdssystem eller politiska maktstrukturer. Men som kultursociolog vill Alexander även rikta blicken mot ”känslostrukturerna och representationens strukturer”, det vill säga frågor om vilket slags samhälle som vi känner att vi är. Han talar om covid-19-pandemin som ett trauma. Mordet på George Floyd beskriver Alexander som ”ett trauma inuti ett trauma”. Den solidaritetsrörelse som växt fram ser han dock som en möjlig brytpunkt för rasrelationerna i USA. I det här numret presenterar vi fyra forskningsartiklar. Rolf Lidskog skriver i sin artikel ”Samhället utmanat? Artificiell intelligens och sociologisk kunskap” att en allt viktigare sociologisk uppgift är att studera AI (artificiell intelligens), om vi ska kunna förstå samhällets utformning och det sociala livet av i dag. Lidskog visar hur sociologiska perspektiv både kan vidareutveckla kunskapen om AI och utmana dominerande föreställningar om detta fenomen. I artikeln ”Resisting the rat race. Self-sufficiency as a search for resonance in rural Sweden” analyserar Majken Jul Sørensen läsarbrev till tidningen Åter, skrivna av familjer som flyttat till den svenska landsbygden för att leva mer självförsörjande. Sørensen uppmärksammar frågor om modernitet, konstruktivt motstånd och vad livet i ett samhälle utan ekonomisk tillväxt skulle kunna innebära. Sofia Strid studerar i sin artikel ”Betydelser av könsstympning hos migrerade minoriteter i Sverige. En feministisk våldsforskningsanalys” attityder, förhållningsätt och förändringsfaktorer i förhållande till könsstympning, ett fenomen som hon ser som ett uttryck för samhälleligt och könat våld. Strid argumenterar för att det finns allt för lite kunskap om attityder till könsstympning i Sverige och att feministiska perspektiv kan tillföra nya värdefulla perspektiv i denna fråga. Sverre Wide menar i sin artikel ”Schack och social interaktion. En undersökning av Dag Østerbergs och Johan Asplunds analyser av schack” att sociologin allt för lite uppmärksammat spelandet av schack. Wides bidrag är att teoretiskt närma sig den struktur som utmärker schackspelandets sociala interaktion, vilket han gör genom att undersöka Østerbergs och Asplunds tidigare schackanalyser. I numret publicerar vi också fyra recensioner av nyutkomna böcker. Stefan Svallfors undrar i sin recension av Irene Wennemos Politik på riktigt. Handbok för sociala ingenjörer (2020) huruvida det vore ”en absurd överdrift att utnämna Irene Wennemo till en svensk nutida Machiavelli”. I sin recension av Miguel Martinez Squatters in the capitalist city. Housing, justice, and urban politics (2019) drar sig Anders Westerström till minnes ett möte med en äldre husockupant i Frankrike, och hur denne uppmärksammade en rad motsättningar som husockupanter ställs inför under postfordistiska och nyliberala samhällsförhållanden. Frågan om hur klass och rasism hänger samman analyseras av Mikael Svensson i avhandlingen Hur klass gör skillnad. Klasspositionens betydelse för rasistiska och negativt särskiljande praktiker (2019) och recensenten Susanne Urban menar att den, som alla bra frågor, inte är lätt att svara på. Aida Alvinius beskriver i sin recension av antologin Genus, risk och kris (2020) av Jennifer Hobbins, Erna Danielsson och Angelika Sjöstedt (red.) boken som ”ett ambitiöst försök till ett tvärvetenskapligt samarbete”. Vi vill också uppmana er att sända oss era artikelmanus, förslag till recensioner och idéer för framtida temanummer. Sociologisk Forskning publicerar bidrag på svenska och övriga skandinaviska språk samt på engelska. Sociologisk Forskning tillämpar anonymiserad kollegial granskning (double blind peer review) och alla artiklar publiceras med omedelbar öppen tillgång (open access) på tidskriftens hemsida. Vi vill också uppmärksamma våra läsare på att Sociologisk Forskning under våren har tagit steget ut bland de sociala medierna och numera finns på Facebook, Instagram och Twitter (webbadresserna hittar du på sidan 2 i detta nummer). I dessa kanaler uppmärksammar vi såväl nypublicerat som äldre material från vårt digitala arkiv och vi hoppas att på detta sätt ytterligare synliggöra aktuella och samhällsrelevanta artiklar i Sociologisk Forskning för en bredare publik.
