Full textAbstract:
Thème récurrent de la littérature québécoise, la nostalgie reste généralement associée à un certain conservatisme. Dans le contexte contemporain de la « surmodernité » (Marc Augé), ce sentiment prend cependant une valeur nouvelle, dont témoigne bien l’oeuvre de Lise Tremblay. Une étude détaillée des romans La pêche blanche et La danse juive ainsi que du recueil de nouvelles La héronnière montre que la nostalgie ne représente pas nécessairement une « tristesse sans objet » (Susan Stewart), un élan stérile portant l’individu vers un passé à la fois idéalisé et inaccessible. Dans l’univers de Lise Tremblay, la nostalgie se définit plutôt comme l’aspiration à un présent transformé, l’élan vers un idéal que porterait l’ensemble de la communauté : elle ouvre les portes de l’utopie.

Full textAbstract:
Dans l’oeuvre de Lise Tremblay et de Nelly Arcan, le corps, et plus particulièrement sa beauté, de même que le pouvoir sexuel qui en découle, apparaît indissociable de la quête identitaire des personnages féminins et conditionne les formes liées au discours romanesque. Par l’analyse des représentations du corps, de son (auto)objectivation et des stratégies adoptées par les auteures pour dénoncer les effets de l’impératif de beauté chez les femmes, il devient donc possible de circonscrire, sur le plan du discours littéraire, l’aliénation dont elles souffrent toujours dans une société qui se dit égalitaire.

Résumé La théorie suggère qu'à l'opposé du roman, le récit s'intéresserait à la discontinuité du je, qu'elle soit temporelle, spatiale, culturelle ou scripturaire. C'est cette idée qui sert ici de fil conducteur à la lecture de trois récits : L'odeur du café de Dany Laferrière, À propos de Maude de Lise Harou et La vallée des épilobes de Rose-Hélène Tremblay. Sans vouloir simplifier indûment ni limiter le sens des récits en cause, on pourrait proposer que le premier met en scène la discontinuité spatio-temporelle du je, le deuxième, la discontinuité du sujet de l'écriture, et le troisième, la rupture du sujet avec les valeurs culturelles. Les trois laissent entières les incertitudes et les contradictions du je.

Résumé L’écocritique est une approche d’analyse culturelle récente qui est apparue aux États-Unis au cours des années 1980. Elle s’est constituée à partir de l’écologie, discipline scientifique issue de la biologie, puis de l’écologisme, mouvement social provenant d’une certaine critique de la modernité. Les recherches en écocritique s’intéressent aux relations entre l’être humain et l’environnement telles qu’elles sont représentées dans les expressions culturelles. Cette perspective est ici appliquée à La héronnière de Lise Tremblay, un recueil de nouvelles publié en 2003. L’oeuvre offre une relecture de l’opposition entre ruralité et urbanité au Québec. Elle met en scène trois rapports de l’être à son milieu – le rural, l’urbain et le néorural – personnifiés par trois narrateurs qui observent un village indéterminé, mais emblématique. Ces points de vue, examinant les habitats, les migrations et les prédations, dévoilent leurs types de rapports à la nature : domination, consommation et réappropriation.

Full textAbstract:
La banlieue est un point aveugle dans l’historiographie littéraire québécoise autant que dans le panorama des approches critiques qui s’y rattachent. Certes les écrivains la représentent ; ils l’ont fait de plus en plus ces dix ou quinze dernières années avec l’arrivée à maturité d’une génération qui en a connu les formes canoniques du boom d’après–guerre. Mais il n’existe pas de problème spécifique de la banlieue. Elle est pensée hâtivement comme un décor caricatural propre à la critique de la conformité américaine, ou bien elle est estompée par l’éclat d’une ville centrale littéraire dans laquelle on a précipité tous les signes de la modernité et du cosmopolitisme. À cet égard les études littéraires québécoises ont beaucoup à rattraper quant à la réalité du développement périurbain depuis 1945. Cet article propose une avenue en ce sens avec l’étude de deux romans d’importance publiés récemment : La soeur de Judith de Lise Tremblay et Le ciel de Bay City de Catherine Mavrikakis. Deux romans qui se détournent de la banlieue comme décor, et qui tentent de donner une forme littéraire à l’expérience même du développement périphérique.

Full textAbstract:
La pièce de Denise Boucher Les fées ont soif constitue un événement important dans la courte histoire du théâtre québécois. Écrite dix ans après le choc provoqué par la création des Belles-Soeurs de Michel Tremblay, cette oeuvre, qualifiée de manifeste dramatique (par Lise Gauvin), semble pourtant avoir été largement oubliée si l’on en juge, d’un côté, par l’absence de reprise récente sur les scènes québécoises ; et, de l’autre côté, par le fait que son souvenir n’aura guère été rappelé, en 2008, soit trente ans après le scandale qui, à l’époque, avait mobilisé tout le milieu théâtral. C’est donc en tant qu’événement que nous avons choisi d’aborder le texte de Denise Boucher, entendu que la polémique entourant la pièce aura produit des échos bien au-delà de la sphère restreinte de la culture. C’est l’ensemble des discours produits à la fois par des professionnels, des artistes, des spécialistes et des gens ordinaires qui constitue le matériau privilégié de cette enquête au fil de laquelle nous entendons mettre en lumière les lignes de fractures idéologiques produites par l’événement des Fées ont soif au sein de la société québécoise. Cette étude s’inscrit dans la perspective d’une analyse du discours social québécois post-Révolution tranquille et dans la foulée des recherches actuelles sur la construction de la mémoire culturelle.

Résumé Dans Un ange cornu avec des ailes de tôle, Michel Tremblay parle des livres qui ont marqué sa jeunesse en soulevant à ce propos des questions importantes: qu’est-ce que lire en «non-spécialiste»? comment peut-on être jaloux d’un personnage? pourquoi la logique fictionnelle ne s’accorde-t-elle pas avec la réalité? comment la fiction s’affranchit-elle des grands principes moraux tout en restant fidèle à la «vraie vie»? Michel Tremblay, à sa manière, apporte des réponses à ces questions en abordant la pertinence des émotions que peut éprouver le lecteur d’un point de vue esthétique et moral face à des textes aussi différents que Patira de Raoul de Navery, Agamemnon d’Eschyle, Bonheur d’occasion de Gabrielle Roy.

Abstract In contrast to the literary production in certain vernacular languages like French or German, the period of the Thirty Years’ War was a very productive period for Neo-Latin epic poetry. Two examples discussed in this article elucidate the different purposes of these poems: With his Turcias (Paris 1625) Francois Le Clerc Du Tremblay tried to unite the European Christian rulers and to convince them of a common and united war against the Turks. On the other hand, the Jesuit Jacques d’Amiens published in Douai in 1648 his Bellum Germanicum, the first (and only) part of an epic poem that supports the Catholic part in the Thirty Years’ War. A comparison of the depiction of the enemies in particular in these two poems makes the differences visible.

AbstractWe analyzed the phylogenetic relationships between eight Aphidius Nees and six Lysaphidus Smith species on the basis of 12 morphological characters by parsimony analysis. The consensus tree does not support the generic status of Lysaphidus. Aphidius iranicus, sp. nov., associated with Titanosiphon bellicosum Nevsky on Artemisia absinthium L. from Iran, is described. The new parasitoid species is described and illustrated by line drawings, and its diagnostic characters are discussed. The taxonomic position of the subgenus Tremblayia Tizado and Núñez-Pérez is also considered. Tremblayia and Lysaphidus are newly classified as synonyms of Aphidius. The following new or revised combinations are proposed: Aphidius adelocarinus Smith, comb. rev., A. ramythirus Smith, comb. rev., A. rosaphidis Smith, comb. rev., A. viaticus (Sedlag), comb. nov., A. arvensis (Starý), comb. nov., and A. erysimi (Starý), comb. nov.

The Dragonfly of Chicoutimi de Larry Tremblay (1995), oeuvre marquante de la dramaturgie québécoise des années quatre-vingt-dix, a fait l’objet de nombreuses études visant à dégager les spécificités de ce long monologue « in English ». Cette analyse jette un éclairage inédit sur une question très peu abordée dans les travaux portant sur l’ensemble du corpus dramatique québécois : l’inscription des référents du catholicisme. L’article montre comment cette oeuvre peut se lire comme une confession profondément travaillée par le registre de la culpabilité et comment le récit de rêve au coeur du monologue, par l’inscription des souvenirs renvoyant à l’époque du Canada français et par les intertextes liturgiques et bibliques qu’il déploie, donne à la confession de Gaston Talbot une résonance prophétique. Le passé catholique canadien-français et ses signifiants (refoulés) façonnent ainsi en profondeur l’énonciation au présent.

Full textAbstract:
The systematic organization of Maxym Rylskyi’s sonnet verse is characterized by the dynamics of figurative creation, which begins in the first quatrain and, as a rule, preserves the “rise line” in the second quatrain in order to echo the synthesis in the final thirds. Thus, in the sonnet «The ax trembles, the silver darkened” two lines ─ the trembling sedge, which rises high with the darkened silver leaf, and the benefit of the green shadow from it for the weary, aching human body ─ in the first quatrain they seem to run in parallel. However, already in the second quatrain, probably, from the same trembling ax the appeal of the lyrical hero to the heart sprouts (Tremble, develop and wormwood!). The synthesis-generalization initiated by the replica of the heart (internal monologue) continues the associative parallel of nature and man in the first third (On the branch of universal wood. You are only a particle, line one!) ─ both semantic lines marked at the beginning of the poem are now merged the only one. And finally the final concluding stanza ─ the assertion of this unity ─ earthly and high, when the only true dimension is the integrity of depth. Another structural organization is observed in the sonnet «In the warm days of grape harvest”, where the first stanza of the exposition reveals to the reader a lyrical location, which in the second quatrain unfolds in the dialogue of lyrical characters and is continued in the castle stanza by a generalizing line. , thus creating the overall compositional and artistic integrity of the poetic structure. In a number of texts the poet broadly reflects the idea of internal conflict at the junction of two quatrains, proclaimed at one time in the program sonnet of Ivan Franko, although the antithetical break can occur not only at the border of the first and second quatrains. the first part is an adverb yet). The whole sonnet is based on the features of such correlates. The textual permeability of repeating elements at different levels contributes to the dynamization of the artistic structure. In verse «Bring gifts to the gods! Transparent honey bear ”repetition with an anaphoric conjunction and in each stanza (used more than ten times in the text) grows into a gradation of syntagms in the final stanzas.

Full textAbstract:
The paper describes a novel approach in battery storage system modelling. Different types of lithium-ion batteries exhibit differences in performance due to the battery anode and cathode materials being the determining factors in the storage system performance. Because of this, the influence of model parameters on the model accuracy can be different for different battery types. These models are used in battery management system development for increasing the accuracy of SoC and SoH estimation. The model proposed in this work is based on Tremblay model of the lithium-ion battery. The novelty of the model lies in the approach used for parameter estimation as a function of battery physical properties. To make the model perform more accurately, the diffusion resistance dependency on the battery current and the Peukert effect were also included in the model. The proposed battery model was validated using laboratory measurements with a LG JP 1.5 lithium-ion battery. Additionally, the proposed model incorporates the influence of the battery charge and discharge current level on battery performance.

ABSTRACT We have previously shown that the presence of the CD4 cytoplasmic tail is critical for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-induced apoptosis (J. Corbeil, M. Tremblay, and D. D. Richman, J. Exp. Med. 183:39–48, 1996). We have pursued our investigation of the role of the CD4 transduction pathway in HIV-induced apoptosis. To do this, wild-type and mutant forms of the CD4 cytoplasmic tail were stably expressed in the lymphoblastoid T-cell line A2.01. Apoptosis was prevented when CD4 truncated at residue 402 was expressed; however, cells expressing mutated receptors that do not associate with p56 lck (mutated at the dicysteine motif and truncated at residue 418) but which conserved proximal domains of the cytoplasmic tail underwent apoptosis like wild-type CD4. The differences between wild-type and mutated receptors in the induction of apoptosis were not related to levels of p56 lck or NF-κB activation. Initial signaling through the CD4 receptor played a major role in the sensitization of HIV-infected T cells to undergo apoptosis. Incubation of HIV-infected cells with monoclonal antibody (MAb) 13B8-2, which binds to CD4 in a region critical for dimerization of the receptor, prevented apoptosis without inhibiting HIV replication. Moreover, the apoptotic process was not related to Fas-Fas ligand interaction; however, an antagonistic anti-Fas MAb (ZB-4) enhanced apoptosis in HIV-infected cells without inducing apoptosis in uninfected cells. These observations demonstrate that CD4 signaling mediates HIV-induced apoptosis by a mechanism independent of Fas-Fas ligand interaction, does not require p56 lck signaling, and may involve a critical region for CD4 dimerization.

Full textAbstract:
Our identity is formed in large part by the way we see others and the way others, in their turn, see us. This is true both of Québec and of Édouard, one of the principal characters of the fictionalised Montréal universe of Michel Tremblay. A representative of the pre-1970s socio-economic inequality of French-Canadians, Édouard is further marginalised by his homosexuality. In his transvestite persona as the Duchesse de Langeais, a revised version of a Balzacian heroine, he undertakes a mocking critique of the injustices of his society from the ‘external’ point of view of this supposed French aristocrat before seizing the opportunity of an actual visit to France, hoping to find there a freer and more equitable society. But the Old World turns out to be unwelcoming and antiquated, making Édouard more aware of the hitherto unperceived advantages of his life in Montréal. Returning home, his only option is to resume his role as a provocative duchess, preparing the ground for the advent in 1976 of a modern Québec, a francophone society of the New World, internationally recognised for its openness of mind and its cultural dynamism.

Full textAbstract:
In our increasingly aged societies, old age continues to be equated with decline (Gullette 2004) and becomes the source of the most invisible yet persistent forms of discrimination, namely, ageism (Butler 1969). Even though theatre, like other artistic forms, has traditionally promoted a negative image of ageing (Mangan 2013), some contemporary plays have begun to favour more complex portrayals of old age. Nevertheless, when considered from a gender-based angle, these portrayals often acquire quite a problematic undertone: while roles for older female actors remain exceptional, many peripheral or, if centred, mainly problematic dramatizations of ageing femininity in the theatre arena fuel age prejudice against older women on and off stage. This article offers an age-focused analysis of two plays that counteract stereotypical images of female ageing through various dramaturgical strategies: Michel Tremblay’s Albertine in Five Times (1984) and Matt Hartley’s Here I Belong (2016). Through a comparative analysis of the Naturalistic and Non-Naturalistic devices employed in the two plays, and the examination of the meanings of age generated by the characterization of the two female protagonists, we hope to demonstrate that Tremblay’s and Hartley’s texts contribute to creating a truly anti-ageist theatre while at the same time enhancing the visibility of the older woman on the stage.

Full textAbstract:
In his novel entitled Gazole (2001), Bertrand Gervais, a Quebec writer, takes up the issue of suicide and its psychological and social impact. The main character, Lancelot Tremblay, whose job is to write lyrics for a rock band Le Livre des Morts (Eng. The Book of the Dead), hangs himself in his apartment. His naked body with an erect penis is discovered by the other members of the band Gazole and Pyramide. Their reactions to this deadly act are, however, different. Submerging himself in mourning, Pyramide withdraws emotionally from his relationship with his girlfriend Gazole, who, deeply touched by her partner’s newly developed indifference to her, delves into an investigation into the causes of Lancelot’s suicide. Being increasingly fascinated by the figure of Lancelot, Gazole reconstructs a new picture of him. Pieces of memories conjured up by those who knew Lancelot, like incomplete pieces of a puzzle, make Gazole form a romantic image of his absence. The mysterious and tragic figure of the young poet who chose to extinguish himself fires the woman’s imagination, who fantasizes about a sentimental and erotic relationship with him. An emptiness created by the suicide forces the woman to ponder over the nature of death, an eternal absence. Obsessed with this imaginary presence of Lanelot, Gazole has to set herself free from its influence, which causes her to flirt with a razorblade in a bathtub. The foray into Lancelot’s suicide gives Gazole an insight into her own true identity. Gazole discovers her internal feminine strength and frees herself from the shackles of Lancelot’s mental and sexual hold.

Abstract. The flooding episode of November 1997 in Badajoz was one of the most dramatic catastrophes in Spain: as a result, there were 21 fatalities and huge financial damages. The main purpose of this work is to assess the prevailing synoptic conditions as well as detailing the mesoscale effects by means of moisture sources and dynamic and thermodynamic instability analysis involved in the November 1997 Spanish severe weather episode. In order to achieve the above, this flood event is described in terms of moisture content evolution by means of individual particle simulation along 3-day back-trajectories. A Lagrangian model is applied in order to characterize the atmospheric particles involved in the focused case (localization, height and specific humidity) which give rise to sudden precipitation stream. Geopotential height and temperature fields were used to describe the synoptic situation. Thermodynamic indices, such as CAPE, SWEAT and KI, and dynamic parameters like potential vorticity anomaly at 330 K isentropic surface and Q vector divergence were also calculated in order to complete the analysis and to give a thorough weather frame taking into account the atmospheric instability. The results of this work suggest this flood event was due mainly to strong dynamic instability along with large amounts of moisture advected by a trough, while the thermodynamic instability played a secondary role. Finally, a new methodology based on a technique proposed by Tremblay (2005) has been developed in order to separate the precipitation into stratiform and convective components. It is evident that the event was associated with a predominant convective regime.

Full textAbstract:
In this paper I examine a particular type of morphological negation in French, namely non- prefixation on nominal bases (e.g. non-violence ‘nonviolence’). Drawing on a wide range of authentic examples from the Trésor de la Langue Française informatisé (TLFi), the French literary database Frantext and the internet, I show that although the basic meaning of non- prefixation is negation, the nouns prefixed by non- (abbreviated as [non-N]N) may carry an additional nuance, which can be pejorative or euphemistic; hence the hypothesis defended in this paper that the prefix non- can also serve pragmatic purposes.
After having briefly described the morphological and semantic variety of nominal lexemes which can be the input of non- prefixation, I show that [non-N]N can have three different readings, namely what I call the “complementary” interpretation (e.g. les Italiens et les non-Italiens aiment la cuisine italienne ‘Italians and non-Italians like Italian cuisine’), the “ontological” interpretation (e.g. Toute sa vie durant, Gandhi est demeuré convaincu du bien-fondé de la non-violence ‘For all his life, Gandhi was convinced of the legitimacy of nonviolence’), and the “contrary interpretation” (e.g. Les fleurs, je m’en fiche. Serais-je une non-femme? ‘Flowers, I don’t care! Could I be a nonwoman?). In the second section, I describe the pejorative and euphemistic uses of [non-N]N. The pejorative useshave been noticed by several authors (a.o. Gaatone 1971, 1987, Di Sciullo and Tremblay 1993, 1996 for French, Zimmer 1964, Algeo 1971, Bauer 1983, Horn 1989 for English); I show that these uses arise when the [non-N]N have a contrary interpretation and that they are quite frequent. I also emphasize the importance of the discourse context compared to the semantics of the base noun. Then I address the euphemistic uses of [non-N]N, which are linked to the ontological interpretation, and which are more constrained and thus less frequent; I note that these uses function almost as a politeness device. The fourth section provides an attempt to draw a parallel between certain uses of [non-N]N and the polemic and metalinguistic uses of sentential negation, as they have been described by Ducrot (1980, 1984) and Horn (1985, 1989).

Full textAbstract:
Barnardo' line “How now Horatio, you tremble and look pale,” delivered just after the ghost's exit in Act I, scene i of Hamlet, is at once a description of Horatio and a thematic statement about the effect of tragedy. By the end of the play, this phrase has come to signify the way amazing, horrifying, and profoundly tragic events affect the spectators: Hamlet addresses the “mutes or audience” to the “act” he, Laertes, Claudius and Gertrude have just performed as “you that look pale, and tremble at this chance” (V, ii, 334). When a character describes another in this way, the utterance constitutes a verbal cue: it tells the audience what is happening on the stage, or how the other characters are reacting to past or present events. A verbal cue can be thought of as a spoken stage direction, to use Raymond Williams' term, one which serves as a signal both to the actors and to the audience. Shakespeare repeatedly resorted to verbal cues in representing the ghosts, witches, and other supernatural visitations that figure prominently in Hamlet, Macbeth, and less prominently, in Richard III and Julius Caesar. Regardless of how they are represented on the stage, supernatural characters are essentially imaginative projections, who exist as much through the speeches and described reactions of others as through what they themselves say and do. Verbal cues thus serve as part of the characterization process; they help to define these creatures in terms of their effects on others. And as a theatrical strategy, the cues employ language to summon up visions in the mind of the spectator, creating images that no stagecraft, however spectacular, could equal.

Critics seeking a paradigmatic moment in the history of Indian-white encounter will find few more suitable than the following from the life of Black Hawk, the Sauk rebel, U.S. prisoner of war, and subject if not author of the Life of Ma-Ka-Tai-Me-She-Kia-Kiak or Black Hawk (1833). The episode, reported by Thomas McKenney and James Hall in The Indian Tribes of North America (1836–44), occurred after Black Hawk's brief, spectacular resistance to removal had been violently quelled; after he had been taken on a humbling tour of the East; and after his rival, Keokuk, had been installed by the United States as tribal chief. McKenney and Hall pick up the story at the conference where Keokuk's ascendancy is announced:They were then told by major Garland, that the President considered Keokuk the principal chief of the nation, and desired he should be acknowledged as such; he expected Black Hawk would listen, and conform to this arrangement. … From some mistake of the interpreter, Black Hawk understood that he was ordered to submit to the advice of Keokuk, and became greatly excited. Losing all command of himself he arose, trembling with anger, and exclaimed: “I am a man — an old man. I will not obey the counsels of anyone! I will act for myself; no one shall govern me. …”Keokuk, in a low tone, said to him: “Why do you speak thus before white men? You trembled — you did not mean what you said.

Associations of lobsters (Homarus americanus) off southwestern Nova Scotia with bottom type from images and geophysical maps. – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 66: 2060–2067. Images from an underwater towed vehicle (Towcam) were used to estimate densities and to evaluate bottom-type associations of lobsters (Homarus americanus), crabs (Cancer spp.), and scallops (Placopecten magellanicus). Images were obtained in October 2006 along 14 line-transects off southwestern Nova Scotia in an area with productive lobster and scallop fisheries. Lobsters were observed in 4% of the 2044 images, crabs in 7%, and scallops in 40%. On sand, gravel, and cobble seabed, lobsters were readily observable. On rougher substrata with boulders, some lobsters were still evident either in the open or partially hidden in shelters. Estimated densities of lobsters from the images on some transects were 0.04 m−2, approximately half of the estimates of lobster density for adjacent inshore areas from scuba, but 34 times higher than estimates from scallop drags in the same area. Models of animal presence by bottom type were evaluated with categories that were (i) geophysically based (map of bottom type from geophysical characteristics) and (ii) image-based (sediment size from images). Significant relationships were evident with both types of seabed categorization, suggesting that it would be beneficial to stratify surveys using geophysical categories. Depth was also significant in determining presence/absence of lobsters and crabs. There is potential to develop indicators of lobster abundance using underwater imaging, and stratification by bottom type should be incorporated into surveys.

Jane is calmly strolling through the forest one lovely day. Suddenly, a large spider drops in front of her face. She immediately freezes; her heart races; her hands tremble; her face broadcasts “fear.” She screams and runs away. Both before and after, she concedes that spiders in this forest are harmless.Jane's reaction to the spider contrasts greatly with the way she normally reacts to events. Normally, or so the story goes, Jane weighs her options thoughtfully, choosing a course of action consistent with her beliefs and with the greatest benefit. Indeed, her reaction to the spider contrasts so greatly with calm, rational, deliberate, belief-consistent action that traditional folk psychology supposed two different kinds of mechanism are at work: animal-like emotion (located in the heart and gut) versus human reason (located in the mind). Her emotion explains her reaction to the spider. Her emotion made her do it.

ABSTRACT The incorporation of host-derived proteins in nascent human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) particles is a well-established phenomenon. We recently demonstrated that the physical presence of host-encoded ICAM-1 glycoproteins on HIV-1 leads to a significant increase in virus infectivity in an ICAM-1/LFA-1-dependent fashion (J.-F. Fortin, R. Cantin, G. Lamontagne, and M. Tremblay, J. Virol. 71:3588–3596, 1997). We show here that conversion of LFA-1 to high affinity for ICAM-1 with the use of anti-LFA-1 antibodies (clones NKI-L16 and MEM83) markedly enhances the susceptibility of different target T-lymphoid cell lines, as well as of primary peripheral blood mononuclear cells, to infection by ICAM-1-bearing HIV-1 particles (6- to 95-fold). It is known that T-cell receptor (TCR) cross-linking induces a transient increase in LFA-1 affinity for ICAM-1. Treatment of peripheral blood mononuclear cells with anti-TCR antibodies (clone OKT3) resulted in a transient increase in susceptibility to infection by ICAM-1-positive virions that parallels the previously reported kinetics of the LFA-1/ICAM-1 adhesion mechanism. Our results led us to postulate that the strong interaction taking place between virally incorporated ICAM-1 and cell surface-activated LFA-1 markedly enhances the efficiency of virus binding and entry, thus favoring greater infection by ICAM-1-bearing HIV-1 particles. In view of the knowledge that primary HIV-1 isolates harbor host-derived ICAM-1 on their surfaces, these results provide new information about the role of host-derived ICAM-1 in the life cycle of HIV-1 and how it could positively modulate the dynamics of the viral infection, mainly in cellular compartments, such as the lymphoid tissues, where the level of cellular activation is high and where the probability of encountering a T cell expressing the activated LFA-1 form is also elevated.

Full textAbstract:
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1A (CMT1A) is the most common inherited motor and sensory neuropathy, and is caused by duplication of PMP22, alterations of which are a characteristic feature of demyelination. The clinical phenotype of CMT1A is determined by the degree of axonal loss, and patients suffer from progressive muscle weakness and impaired sensation. Therefore, we investigated the potential of Schwann-like cells differentiated from human tonsil-derived stem cells (T-MSCs) for use in neuromuscular regeneration in trembler-J (Tr-J) mice, a model of CMT1A. After differentiation, we confirmed the increased expression of Schwann cell (SC) markers, including glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), nerve growth factor receptor (NGFR), S100 calcium-binding protein B (S100B), glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), which suggests the differentiation of T-MSCs into SCs (T-MSC-SCs). To test their functional efficiency, the T-MSC-SCs were transplanted into the caudal thigh muscle of Tr-J mice. Recipients’ improved locomotive activity on a rotarod test, and their sciatic function index, which suggests that transplanted T-MSC-SCs ameliorated demyelination and atrophy of nerve and muscle in Tr-J mice. Histological and molecular analyses showed the possibility of in situ remyelination by T-MSC-SCs transplantation. These findings demonstrate that the transplantation of heterologous T-MSC-SCs induced neuromuscular regeneration in mice and suggest they could be useful for the therapeutic treatment of patients with CMT1A disease.

Full textAbstract:
ABSTRACT Mealybugs (Hemiptera, Coccoidea, Pseudococcidae), like aphids and psyllids, are plant sap-sucking insects that have an obligate association with prokaryotic endosymbionts that are acquired through vertical, maternal transmission. We sequenced two fragments of the genome of Tremblaya princeps, the endosymbiont of mealybugs, which is a member of the β subdivision of the Proteobacteria. Each of the fragments (35 and 30 kb) contains a copy of 16S-23S-5S rRNA genes. A total of 37 open reading frames were detected, which corresponded to putative rRNA proteins, chaperones, and enzymes of branched-chain amino acid biosynthesis, DNA replication, protein translation, and RNA synthesis. The genome of T. princeps has a number of properties that distinguish it from the genomes of Buchnera aphidicola and Carsonella ruddii, the endosymbionts of aphids and psyllids, respectively. Among these properties are a high G+C content (57.1 mol%), the same G+C content in intergenic spaces and structural genes, and similar G+C contents of the genes encoding highly and poorly conserved proteins. The high G+C content has a substantial effect on protein composition; about one-third of the residues consist of four amino acids with high-G+C-content codons. Sequence analysis of DNA fragments containing the rRNA operon and adjacent regions from endosymbionts of several mealybug species suggested that there was a single duplication of the rRNA operon and the adjacent genes in an ancestor of the present T. princeps. Subsequently, in one mealybug lineage rpS15, one of the duplicated genes, was retained, while in another lineage it decayed. These results extend the diversity of the types of endosymbiotic associations found in plant sap-sucking insects.

Abstract Background In a Phase III COMPLEMENT 2 study,ofatumumab(OFA) plusfludarabine(F) and cyclophosphamide (C) demonstrated significantly improved median progression-free survival (PFS) by 54% compared to FC treatment alone (HR=0.67, p=0.0032) in patients with relapsed chronic lymphocytic leukemia (rCLL). However, the relative value of OFA in rCLL has not been formally assessed. The objective of this study was to estimate the incremental cost per (quality-adjusted) life-year of utilizing OFA+FC vs. FC for rCLL in the US. Methods A partition survival model was developed to estimate the expected outcomes and costs of treatment of OFA+FC vs FC forrCLLover a lifetime horizon. The model includes 4 health states: PFS on treatment, PFS off-treatment, post-progression and death. Time during PFS following protocol-defined treatment duration of 6 months, was considered a treatment-free period in the model. Data on PFS, OS and frequencies of adverse events (AEs)were obtained from the Phase III clinical trial for OFA (COMPLEMENT 2). For the extrapolation of OS and PFS a piecewise approach was used, where the efficacy was based on the patient-level data (Kaplan-Meier Survivor Function) until the trial cut-off and a tail extrapolation thereafter (gamma distribution). Health state utilities and dis-utilities for AEs were obtained from previously published vignette studies. Costs incorporated in the model included drug and administration for primary and follow-up therapies, adverse event treatments, medical costs for hospitalizations and physician visits; and end of life costs. The costs were derived from databases (AnalySourceOnline, AHRQ, CMS). Results Treatment with OFA+FC led to an increase of 0.803 life years and 0.543 quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) relative to FC. The total cost of OFA+FC was higher by $6,693 per patient relative to FC. Although addition of AFA to FC lead to higher drug and adverse event costs, these were partially offset by lower follow-up costs compared to FC. The ICER per LY and per QALY gained with OFA+FC vs. FC was $8,333 and $12,322, respectively. Based on probabilistic sensitivity analyses, there wasa85% probability that OFA+FC was cost-effective compared to FC at a societal willingness-to-pay threshold of $100,000 per QALY saved. Conclusions Our analysis suggests treatment with OFA+FC compared to FC is highly cost-effective based Phase 3 within-trial analysis. These results are driven by the improved PFS and OS of OFA+FC vs. FC, as well as the treatment-free period, during which patients experienced PFS without the burden of treatment AEs or costs. Future direct comparisons of OFA+FC versus other treatment options will further clarify the cost-effectiveness of OFA+FC to inform coverage and reimbursement policy decisions.

Somehow, of late I had got into the way of involuntarily using the word “prefer” upon all sorts of not exactly suitable occasions. And I trembled to think that my contact with the scrivener had already seriously affected me in a mental way. And what further and deeper aberration might it not yet produce?—Herman Melville, “Bartleby the Scrivener” (22-23)His brain was jerking forward likea bad slide projector.

These authors' bits of language just claimed me as I stared at some books on my office shelf, and I'm not sure exactly what to make of these passages except that I like them. So I'm listing them for you. You might also like them. I like many things, and in no particular order. For instance, here's what I “liked” one day, not long ago, on Facebook: a picture of the word Puppies! scrawled on a sidewalk; a New York Times story about the disorganization of the bicentennial of the War of 1812 (that war has a huge, nearly comical significance in my adopted country of Canada—did you know that Canadians burned down the White House?); an audio clip of Justin Bieber, featuring Busta Rhymes, singing “Little Drummer Boy”; my friend and colleague Jordan Stein's “vegan homo Thanksgiving” photo album; a posting by my “friend” “Emily Dickinson”; numerous updates about and images of the November 2011 pepper spraying of protesting students on the University of California, Davis, campus. I could go on and on, which is probably one of the reasons I, and millions of others, go on and on Facebook. Disorderly is the right word, but the likes are not quite random. People have generated these items, these virtual objects of interest, for rapid public consumption and, with the ubiquity of the “Like” button, for rapid public response. They (we) put stuff out there in part because we're showing off our preferences, or if not our preferences (even though they will be acknowledged with our liking) then at least things that interest us and (we hope) others. It's hard to know exactly what liking something on Facebook means because a like is nearly the same thing as an acknowledgment, something that says, “Yes, I clicked on this item, and it did not displease me.” And often people complain in comments that they wish there were variations on the “Like” button (“I want to express my anger with this piece of information—I wish there were a ‘Hate’ button”). Whatever our motivations or the nature of our interest in what we curate for the world on Facebook, these objects for consumption often go under the heading of like; so, like it or not, we're reading for like—we're doing a little like reading.

BackgroundIn reviewing health inequalities it is not sufficient to simply focus on those most affected instead there should be a whole systems approach to have the maximum effect upon the population. (Marmot 2010) Within such an approach ‘the mechanisms giving rise to inequalities are still imperfectly understood’.(Woodward 2000) Further it has been suggested that evidence remains to be gathered on the effectiveness of interventions to reduce inequalities (Godfredson 2004) particularly within end of life care (EOLC). (CQC 2016).MethodologyTo understand the mechanisms giving rise to inequalities in EOLC we utilised an adapted process map of the EOLC journey. (Tremble 2010) Within this map we highlighted pinpoints. Pinpoints are places within the journey where a clinician decides whether there is a referral to another service. At each pinpoint a patient profile was taken looking at their basic demographics (including disease and place of death) and index of multiple deprivation score.ResultsThe initial data review illustrated similarities across all the pinpoints with the exception of hospice care services that showed a significant increase in the number of patients classified within the 7–10 on the index of multiple deprivation and cancer diagnosis.Further research – on goingAt present statistical analysis is on going into the differences between the pinpoints. At the same time a literature review sought to analyse if there was evidence of a similar anomaly within another healthcare setting; in which it was identified that implicit bias was a potential cause. (Fitzgerald 2017) The next phase of the research looks to test using an Implicit Association Test method whether implicit biases is present in the EOLC journey and develop an intervention to remove it.References.

Abstract The last century has catapulted us into a world full of instability, uncertainty, and a sense of bewilderment. The financial-economic crisis has been added to our difficulties, further polluting our environment, our relationships, our feelings, our wounds. Pre-cariousness, lack of work and of a vision for the future have been added to our sense of emptiness and disorientation. Hope has given way to darkness. We are immersed in the crisis. The feeling of tranquillity and security that we desire is fading, far away, and even forgotten. We are poised upon unstable ground, which makes us tremble and amplifies our need for stability and support. The single person favours self control and mastery, retiring narcissistically into him or herself and refusing help from anyone, not accepting any kind of wound or fragility. Behind these widespread attitudes lies the myth of total independence and of self sufficiency. Psychological and psychotherapeutic disciplines bring a change, within this context, towards a “relational turning point”, discovering in the dynamics of reciprocity the source of individual wellbeing, balance in relationships, and a sense of belonging to a community. The connection with another person makes it possible to build up a sense of oneself where multiplicity and unity, difference and belonging, individual and community coexist. Individuality and belonging are no longer opposed to one another, causing irresolvable conflict in the development of the self, but thanks to reciprocity, to the capacity of self giving and to ethics, they can be fully integrated and contribute to the daily activities, both in the individual and collective dimension, of each person.

Ectoedemia argyropeza on Aspen leaves: deciphering retrospectively some behavioural traits from the distribution of traces of the insect activities subsisting on host-leaves (Lepidoptera, Nepticulidae). Despite their usually small size, endotrophic insects —especially those whose larvae are mining into their host-leaves— exhibit patterns of behaviour that are often more elaborate than what is usually seen in many ectotrophic herbivorous insects. However, since it is generally difficult to capture properly these behaviours in the field, precisely due to the small size of these insects, it turns out to be more convenient attempting to uncover retrospectively some of these behaviours on the basis of their resulting traces which subsist on the host-leaves. In order to be able to infer reliable information from this retrospective approach, the examination of a substantial number of host leaves and the support of appropriate statistical tests are required. The present study concerns a species of microlepidoptera, Ectoedemia argyropeza, whose caterpillars are exclusively mining the leaves of Aspen (Populus tremula) and which is still further distinguished, in a remarkable manner, by the induction of a preliminary galling (“cecidian”) development stage. This unusual combination of life traits contributes to enrich the insect’s behavioural repertoire and therefore offers a more promising field of investigation. For this species, I more particularly focus on the way the artefacts resulting from the insect activities are distributed spatially, on (or in) the host leaf, namely: (i) the spatial distribution of eggs deposited on the host-leaf petiole, (ii) the hierarchy of preferential positioning of the caterpillar corridor in the section of the petiole, hypertrophied by the cecidogenic reaction, (iii) the hierarchy of preferential locations of mines in the host-leaf blade. Were also tested, on the one hand, the existence (or not) of paired relationships between each of the three categories of distributions mentioned above and, on the other hand, the degree of conformation of each of these different distributions to the bilateral symmetry of the leaf support. The behavioural aspects that can be tentatively inferred from the above information are subsequently discussed.

In an early text on Bataille, Derrida notes that Bataille's reinterpretation of Hegel “is a simulated repetition of Hegelian discourse. In the course of this repetition a barely perceptible displacement disjoints all the articulations and penetrates all the points welded together by the imitated discourse. A trembling spreads out which then makes the entire old shell crack.” There is no doubt that this remark refers not just to Bataille's reading of Hegel, but also to the way in which deconstruction intends to make the old shell of Hegelianism, and hence of the history of philosophy in general, tremble. By doing this, deconstruction can be said to open up a way of reflecting on contemporary culture that from Plato onwards had been foreclosed by the predominant tendency of philosophy.According to a famous saying by Hegel, philosophy grasps its own time in thought. This is to say that philosophy explicitly articulates the implicit self-understanding of the culture to which it belongs and out of which it emerges. If contemporary philosophy still faces the task of comprehending its own time, then it should develop a logic which is as philosophical as Hegel's, but which distinguishes itself from the latter by addressing the radical finitude of any effort to bring about meaning, truth, presence, harmony, stability, or justice. Such a logic should respond to the experience that the moments in which human life threatens to lose its dignity are not cancelled out by what is commonly called ‘progress’. To my mind, it is precisely this experience that deconstruction seeks to grasp in thought. I understand deconstruction as drawing attention to that which allows something — for instance a culture — to constitute itself, yet at the same time threatens to make it fall apart. Whereas philosophy can be said to have always shied away from the insight into the radical instability of whatever human beings may venture, Derrida, on the other hand, can be considered to take this very instability as the guiding principle of his philosophy. On the basis of such a principle, the ways in which human life organizes itself will no longer be interpreted in terms of increasing self-actualization, autonomy, or control, but rather by addressing the conflicts from which the various modes of human self-organization may not be able to disentangle themselves.

The article considers changes in most important areas of Slovak society after 1989: dynamics of social stratification, family values, religiosity, leisure activities, voting behavior and preferences, democratic participation. The aim is to examine the contemporary position of Slovakia between the East and the West European civilization systems after two waves of social transformation in the middle and at the end of the 20th century, considering the accelerated change of the underdeveloped agrarian social structure into the industrial type under the "real socialism". However, at the beginning of the 21st century Slovak settlements still retain a strong rural character. As a result of market reforms and westernization a large part of the countryside tremble in the balance, processes of depopulation and formation of excluded social groups take place especially in small municipalities. Further still, in the context of increasing migration from cities to countryside more and more rural patterns of thinking extend to urban environments. The primarily important urban-rural line of societal differentiation, perceptions, attitudes and voters decision-making process are analyzed on base of Slovak sociologists' research. They discovered the phenomenon of historic “embedding” of the party type gaining the voters' support and commitment to one-party system, starting from the Inter-War Period till present. Slovakia represents the case of the weak left-right party profiling and inclination to various “parties of collective identity”. Definitive significance of ethnicity and religion as divisions in mass political orientations, traditionally characterized by the emphasis on leftist orientations, social rights and value of nation are shown in the paper. According to results of the latest socio-empiric studies in the country, most people in Slovakia (mainly the so called “loosers”) did not adopt neoliberal, Western-type path of development, regarding the existing inequalities as too large, and preferring social equality in a society of poor to social differentiation in a society of abundance. Social rights are estimated by the majority of Slovak people higher than political rights now.

This article "The lunar problem is the barrier of the future time of the Earth" is a logical and rational analysis of the formation of the nuclear universe with galaxies, stars, the Sun star, the system of planets and the moons, and arrives at new original and inedited conclusions.
The Big Bang of the primitive universe is a sequence programmed by the nature of thermonuclear super explosions in sidereal space.
These thermonuclear super explosions swept nuclear sidereal space generating the large mass islands of galaxies like the Milky Way.
The Milky Way was the first generation of the hyper-bubbles of the mixture of nuclear masses, which are: geological nuclear mass of attraction of gravity; geological nuclear mass of orbital attraction; geological nuclear mass of orbital repulsion.
Because of nuclear hyper tremors, the nucleus of the Milky Way generated the second generation of the super bubbles that were repulsed from the galaxy's nucleus by the action of the geological nuclear mass of orbital repulsion, and then the super bubbles became in the many billions of celestial stars that make up the galactic disc.
Because of the hyper tremors, the nucleus of these billions of stars, including the Sun, generated the third generation of super bubbles and large bubbles that were repulsed from the nuclei of the stars by the action of the geological nuclear mass of orbital repulsion, and then the super bubbles and large bubbles have become the sequence of planets, which makes up the orbital disk of the solar system.
Due to a small number of nuclear super tremors, the nucleus of the sequence of planets tremble, shook and generated the fourth generation of the small bubbles that were repulsed from the nucleus of the planetary sequence by the action of the geological nuclear mass of orbital repulsion, and then, the small bubbles have become the sequence of moons, which makes up the orbital disk of the planets.
And so, began the count the new time, after the sequence of Big Bang explosions.
