Abstract:
Scalenus syndrome is often diagnosed as thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS). We performed literature searching reporting scalenus syndrome and we narratively describe the finding in this review. Scalenus syndrome is a unique clinical entity and commonly occurred. This syndrome can be classified into neurogenic TOS (nTOS) on the interscalene triangle, which also related to myofascial pain syndrome. There are three factors that contribute to scalenus syndrome, which are congenital anomaly, trauma, traumatic myositis, and hypertrophy of scalenus anterior muscle. The symptoms of scalenus syndrome can be divided into two types, which are neurologic and vascular symptoms. The neurologic manifestation can originate from the somatic and sympathetic nervous system. There is microscopic evidence of inflammation, hypertrophy, degeneration, and fibrosis of scalenus anterior muscle in scalenus syndrome cases. Scalenus syndrome can be treated surgically or conservatively. Non-surgical or conservative treatment can be applied to mild scalenus syndrome, especially nTOS, in the initial phase. Surgical management should be performed in persistent symptoms of nTOS or involving subclavian artery manifesting as arterial TOS (aTOS). Scalenus syndrome has quite similar clinical manifestation as nTOS and aTOS. However, this clinical syndrome should be considered as different entity because of different pathophysiology compared to TOS. Scalenus syndrome is caused by dynamic pathology of anterior scalenus muscle.

Abstract:
Background Thoracic outlet syndrome is described as a group of distinct disorders producing signs and symptoms attributed to compression of nerves and blood vessels in the thoracic outlet region. Purpose To describe the exercise-induced scalenus anticus syndrome attributed to the anterior scalenus hypertrophy as a thoracic outlet syndrome underlying mechanism and to give recommendations for a safe and effective surgical treatment. Study Design Case series; Level of evidence, 4. Methods Twelve young professional athletes admitted for thoracic outlet syndrome (8 cases of neurologic thoracic outlet syndrome, 4 cases of mixed neurologic and vascular thoracic outlet syndrome) who reported numbness, tingling, early fatigue, muscle weakness, and pain were enrolled in the study. Scalenus hypertrophy was suspected to be the causative factor. Scalenectomy was performed in all cases. Results All patients had moderate to severe hypertrophy of the anterior scalenus muscle. Scalenectomy was performed, and there were no intraoperative or postoperative complications. Full activity was quickly achieved, and no recurrence of symptoms was documented. Conclusion Surgical intervention for scalenus anticus syndrome can allow an athlete to return to full activity and improve quality of life. Surgical intervention seems to be the treatment of choice in terms of restoring quality of life and physical activity.

Abstract:
The wide range of scalenus minimus muscle incidence reported in the literature along with the plethora of fibromuscular structures that may appear in the interscalene triangle, having various terminologies, were the reasons to conduct the present study questioning the reported high incidence of this supernumerary scalene muscle. Seventy-three Greek cadavers were dissected and examined for the presence of a scalenus minimus muscle. It was found unilaterally in three of 73 (4.11%) cadavers studied. The literature review, concerning its incidence, revealed a wide range between 7.8 and 71.7 per cent, which cannot be attributed only to racial variation. Thus, there is a matter whether other variations of the scalene muscles are considered as a true scalenus minimus muscle. Recognition of this muscle is important not only for anatomists, but also has clinical significance for the diagnosis of the thoracic outlet syndrome. Surgeons performing scalenectomy and anesthesiologists during interscalene brachial plexus block should keep in mind the anatomical variations of this region.

Abstract:
Objective To compare the accuracy of ultrasound-guided and non-guided botulinum toxin injections into the neck muscles involved in cervical dystonia.Methods Two physicians examined six muscles (sternocleidomastoid, upper trapezius, levator scapulae, splenius capitis, scalenus anterior, and scalenus medius) from six fresh cadavers. Each physician injected ultrasound-guided and non-guided injections to each side of the cadaver’s neck muscles, respectively. Each physician then dissected the other physician’s injected muscle to identify the injection results. For each injection technique, different colored dyes were used. Dissection was performed to identify the results of the injections. The muscles were divided into two groups based on the difficulty of access: sternocleidomastoid and upper trapezius muscles (group A) and the levator scapulae, splenius capitis, scalenus anterior, and scalenus medius muscles (group B).Results The ultrasound-guided and non-guided injection accuracies of the group B muscles were 95.8% and 54.2%, respectively (p<0.001), while the ultrasound-guided and non-guided injection accuracies of the group A muscles were 100% and 79.2%, respectively (p<0.05).Conclusion Ultrasound-guided botulinum toxin injections into inaccessible neck muscles provide a higher degree of accuracy than non-guided injections. It may also be desirable to consider performing ultrasound-guided injections into accessible neck muscles.

Abstract:
Abstract Surgical approach for resection of tumours involving the thoracic inlet has largely been developed in the context of lung cancer of the superior sulcus. Therefore, initial anterior approaches included a thoracotomy associated with a longitudinal cervicotomy. Here, we describe a variation of the previously described anterior surgical approaches of the thoracic inlet that we performed for the resection of a primary mesenchymal tumour of the left middle scalenus muscle secreting fibroblast growth factor-23 responsible for tumour-induced osteomalacia. This approach allowed a safe control of the great vessels phrenic nerve and brachial plexus as well as a comfortable access to the middle scalenus muscle through an L-shaped incision with a cervico-manubriotomy without thoracotomy. The tumour was resected entirely with the middle scalenus. After 3 months of follow-up, the symptoms resolved entirely.

Abstract:
A somatosensory potential that is evoked by transient added inspiratory load has previously been described (Davenport PW, Friedman WA, Thompson FJ, and Franzen O. J Appl Physiol60: 1843–1848, 1986). This evoked potential is novel because it arises in response to a stimulus that also evokes a muscle response, and so this potential could contain myogenic components. The present study was undertaken to define the relationship between the scalp response and other physiological responses that are evoked by airway occlusion. Evoked signals were recorded from the scalp, scalenus anterior, masseter, and electrooculogram. Responses to a 200-ms midinspiratory occlusion were recorded in 12 healthy volunteers. Evoked responses were reliably recorded at C3-CZ and C4-CZ and from the skin overlying the scalenus anterior in 11 of these subjects. The onset latencies were 15.7 ± 3.1 at C3-CZ, 15.9 ± 2.1 at C4-CZ, and 17.6 ± 5.5 ms at scalenus anterior. In nine subjects, the masseter response appeared to coincide with the mouth pressure trace, and this was interpreted as movement artifact. No consistent electrooculogram or frontal electroencephalogram response was recorded. Because of the similarity in onset latency at C3-CZ, C4-CZ, and scalenus anterior, it was concluded that the myogenic signal may contribute to the scalp response and should be viewed as a potential source of artifact in experiments of this nature.

Abstract:

Quantum control theory (QCT) is concerned with the active manipulation of phys- ical and chemical processes on the atomic and molecular scale. For a specified con- trol objective, and with restrictions imposed by many possible constraints, the time- dependent field required to manipulate the system in a desired way can be designed using quantum control theory. This dissertation proposes several novel applications of QCT to actively manipulate the dynamics of both quantum and classical systems with and without interactions with an external environment, in both relativistic and non-relativistic regimes. In Chapter 2, the paradigm of spectral dynamic mimicry (SDM) in which laser fields are shaped to make any atomic and molecular systems look identical spectrally is put forward. SDM successfully avoids optimization rou- tines, and provides a powerful tool to find a laser pulse that induces a desired optical response from an arbitrary dynamical system. As illustrations, driving fields are com- puted to induce the same optical response from a variety of distinct systems (open and closed, quantum and classical). The formulation may also be applied to design materials with specified optical characteristics. These findings reveal unexplored flex- ibilities of nonlinear optics. Little is known about the control of relativistic quantum systems. Therefore, an extension of QCT to the Dirac equation is proposed. The main contributions are: (i) Chapters 3 and 4 reach an unprecedented level of control while providing exciting new insights on the complex quantum dynamics of relativis- tic electrons. The method developed provides a very powerful tool to generate new analytical solutions to the Dirac equation, (ii) Chapters 5 and 6 present an open system interaction formalism for the Dirac equation. The presented framework en- ables efficient numerical simulations of relativistic dynamics within the von Neumann density matrix and Wigner phase space descriptions, an essential requirement for the application of QCT, (iii) Chapter 7 proposes a Lindblad model of quantum elec- trodynamics (QED). The presented formalism enables a very efficient and practical numerical method to simulate QED effects, such as the Lamb shift and the anomalous magnetic moment of the electron, for a broad variety of systems.

Abstract:
Während seiner normalen Funktion generiert das Gehirn starke elektrische Signale, die technisch gemessen werden können. Das schon seit über einem Jahrhundert bekannte Phänomen ermöglicht es die Signalverarbeitung im Gehirn räumlich und zeitlich zu beobachten. Heute versteht man die zellulären Prozesse die zur Generierung der elektrischen Signale in einzelnen Neuronen führen. Jedoch rekrutieren die meisten neuronalen Ereignisse große Populationen von Zellen, dessen Aktivität zeitlich und räumlich koordiniert ist. Diese Koordinierung führt dazu, dass ihre elektrische Aktivität auch weit von den Quellen gemessen werden kann, sodass die Beobachtung des Gehirns auch nicht invasiv auf der Schädeloberfläche mittels dem sogenannten Elektroenzephalogramm (EEG) möglich ist. Der zeitliche Verlauf des Signals hängt nicht nur von den Eigenschaften einzelner Zellen ab sondern auch von ihrer Wechselwirkung mit anderen Neuronen, die oft komplex oder gar nicht bekannt ist. Diese Komplexität verhindert die Auswertung der gemessen Signale im Bezug auf die Anzahl von aktiven Neuronen, die Art der Antwort (Inhibition, Exzitation), die Synchronisationsstärke und den Einfluss anderer aktiver Prozesse (wie zum Beispiel: Lernen, Aufmerksamkeit usw.). In dieser Arbeit werden die Zusammenhänge zwischen diesen mikroskopischen Parametern (einzelne Neurone) und ihrer makroskopischen Wirkung (EEG) experimentell, datenanalytisch und theoretisch untersucht.
During its normal function the brain generates strong and measurable electric signals. This phenomenon, which has been known for more than a century, makes it possible to investigate the signal processing in the brain. Nowadays the cellular processes taking part in the generation of the electric signals are well understood. However, most of the neuronal events recruit large populations of cells, whose activities are coordinated spatially and temporally. This coordination allows for summation of activities generated by many neurons leading to extracellular electric signals that can be recorded non-invasively from the scalp by means of electroencephalography (EEG). The temporal structure of the EEG signal does not depend only on the properties of single neurons, but also on their interactions that may be very complex. The complexity hinders the evaluation of the recoded signal with respect to the number of active neurons, the type of response, the degree of synchronisation and the contribution of other processes (such as, learning and attention). In the thesis, the relations between the microscopic (single-neuron) and their macroscopic (EEG) properties will be investigated by means of experimental, data-analytic and theoretical approaches.

Abstract:
This thesis is about the nature of value incommensurability and its significance for judicial reasoning. It argues that there can be incommensurable values and that this incommensurability can have significant implications for judicial reasoning. I argue that incommensurability gives rise to a range of reasonableness, within which it is reasonable but in a sense also arbitrary to decide either way, and that this range is wider than is suggested by the notion that some options are roughly equal, because even a large improvement to one option may not make it the uniquely correct option. The thesis goes on to consider the effect that the authority of law can have on choices between incommensurable options. Although I argue that the authority of law can sometimes provide a conclusive reason to choose one of two incommensurable options, I also argue that it has limits and may not do so in every case of incommensurability. Moreover, the introduction of an authoritative directive may even give rise to incommensurable options where none previously existed. The thesis then draws out the implications of these claims, first, for human-rights adjudication—where my claim is that ‘balancing’ is appropriate both in the specification of rights and in assessing the justification for their infringement, provided we acknowledge the limits of balancing in cases of incommensurability—and, secondly, for adjudication involving common law reasoning and statutory interpretation. Finally, I suggest that we can distinguish between different ideals of the rule of law, and that the arbitrariness of judicial decisions involving incommensurable options has different implications for those different ideals. The arbitrariness involved in choosing between undefeated reasons may be necessary contrary to one ideal of the rule of law, understood as the rule of authority, but not contrary to an ideal of the rule of law understood as the rule of reason.

The current state of the dental industry shows an increasing number of dentists and dental hygienists who are reducing hours and retiring early due to the injuries sustained while working. These injuries, or cumulative trauma disorders, can be reduced by applying ergonomics in dental tool design. The goal of ergonomics is to reduce current injuries but also prevent future ones. In addition, population demographics have shown an increasing trend in female dentists. With a shift from the male dominated field, design for different anthropometric measurements needs to be investigated. In order to pinpoint sources of pain, a survey was designed and distributed to dentists in Kansas, Missouri, and Texas. Even with a small sample size (n=24), results confirmed past studies in the dental industry of pain originating in the neck, shoulder, lower back, and wrist/hand region. The reasons stemmed from the repetitive motions and forces applied during dental procedures. Responses also found that ergonomic principles need to be applied to the handle and grip portion of dental scaler design. Dental scaling is the procedure to remove deposits on teeth, such as plaque and calculus, most commonly performed by dental hygienists. First, the history of dental tools, angulation, tool weight, and materials currently utilized were researched before looking into specific design factors for modification. Currently, the handle grip area on all dental tools range in size, but a 10 mm grip has been proven to be optimal. The optimal tool weight has yet to be determined as 15 grams is the lowest weight to be tested. Most tools are made of stainless steel and resins, which are not compressible. An experiment was designed to test a new dental scaler (A) made of a titanium rod with added compressibility in the precision grip area. The aim was to help reduce pressure on the fingers and hand muscles and increase comfort during scaling. The experiment utilized a Hu-Friedy sickle scaler (B) and a Practicon Montana Jack scaler (C) as controls to show two design spectrums, weight and material. The subjects (n=23) were taught the basics of scaling and required to scale using a typodont. The change in grip strength (Δ GS), pinch strength (Δ PS), and steadiness of the subjects hand were tested. An absolute and relative rating technique was utilized pinpointing that the new dental scaler was preferred with the eigenvector (A=0.8615, B=0.1279, C=0.0106). Statistical analysis confirmed this tool preference while also finding the interaction of gender and tool and Δ GS Tool A versus Tool B for males to be significant.

Abstract:
The objective of this thesis is to improve understanding of the development of corrosion products (scales) that form on the inner walls of carbon steel pipelines in CO2-rich (sweet) oilfield environments. If well adherent to the carbon steel surface, such scales can significantly reduce the metal’s rate of corrosion. Typically, the open literature labels sweet corrosion scale as ferrous (II) carbonate (FeCO3) or siderite, although this may not always be the case. For example, Fe2(OH)2CO3 (chukanovite) and Fe3O4 (magnetite) are known to modify the protective character of a sweet corrosion product scale. Practical electrochemical methods for the assessment of substrate corrosion, and electron/photon-based characterisation techniques for investigating scale structure and composition, have revealed interesting aspects of the nature of sweet corrosion scale development on model high purity Fe and real-world pipeline steel surfaces. Concerning scale development on model Fe substrates immersed in CO2-saturated deionised water (buffered to pH = 6.8, T = 80°C, Ptotal = 1 bar), electrochemical data supplemented by grazing incidence x-ray diffraction (GIXRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) show that a semi-protective mixed corrosion scale comprising siderite and chukanovite becomes a highly protective siderite scale with longer exposure time. The introduction of sodium chloride to the CO2-saturated solution (T = 80°C, pH = 6.8, Ptotal = 1 bar) impedes the rate of scale formation. Increasing [NaCl] from the start of experiment is suspected to limit the precipitation kinetics of sweet corrosion scale crystals, since chukanovite is no longer observed, and siderite formation is somewhat slowed as well. SEM imaging, using an electronic workfunction-sensitive detector (in lens), reveals nanoscale deposits on the corroded Fe surface in regions that are devoid of µm-scale crystals. With the Raman spectra from these regions considered, it is interpreted that the nanoscale deposits are likely amorphous iron carbonate, albeit oxidised to a significant extent. Moving to real-world carbon steel immersion in sweet solutions, a scale comprising predominantly chukanovite is observed (using GIXRD and SEM) on the 1% Ni weld zone (WZ) surface of a pipeline weld-joint, but not on adjacent, distinct regions (heat affected zones (HAZ) and base metal (BM)). This selective scaling is suggested to be due to some initial corrosion of the weld-joint, which generates sufficient [Fe2+(aq)], and a macro-galvanic effect across the weld, i.e. WZ is cathodic to HAZ and BM. Further, to gain mechanistic insight into compositional changes during sweet corrosion scale growth, an electrochemical cell for in situ GIXRD (named E-cell) has been developed and commissioned. Diffraction patterns acquired using synchrotron radiation, from a pipeline steel surface, reveal the formation and temporal evolution of a multicomponent corrosion scale. Accompanying electrochemical data suggest that the scale is quite protective.

It is difficult to achieve durability and crash consistency in file systems along with multicore scalability. Commutative file system operations, which should scale according to the Scalable Commutativity Property, conflict on shared resources like coarse-grained locks and pages present in the page cache or buffer cache. Furthermore, data structures that are on separate cache lines in memory (e.g., directory entries) are grouped together when the file system writes them to disk for durability. This grouping results in additional conflicts. This thesis introduces a new design approach that decouples the in-memory file system from the on-disk file system, using per core operation logs. This facilitates the use of highly concurrent data structures for the in-memory representation, which is essential for commutative operations to proceed conflict free and hence scale perfectly. The in-memory representation does not propagate updates to the disk representation immediately, instead it simply logs the operation in a per core logical log. A sync or an fsync call processes these operations and applies them to the disk. Techniques based on time stamping linearization points of file system operations ensure crash consistency, and dependency tracking ensures good disk performance. A prototype file system, SCALEFS, implements this new approach and techniques. Experiments using COMMUTER and SCALEFS show that the implementation is conflict free for 99% of test cases involving commutative operations.

Abstract:
There is an increase in the consideration of ecosystem services (ES) within the planning, policy, and research sectors. The increase in sectors working with ES is leading to an increase in scale mismatches, where ecosystem services are being mismanaged, leading to problems. Using a combination of methods these scale issues were investigated. A systematic review of both scientific and grey literature was undertaken which analysed 112 documents and led to a survey of 72 subjects who were working with ES across different sectors, and finally 19 in-depth interviews were undertaken, in order to understand fully the scale issues, and potential solutions being used. The systematic review found that a lot of ecosystem service scientific literature was based on, or had connections with, the global issue of climate change, this was in contrast to the survey that found that both researchers and those in policy are working at a regional spatial scale or below. The in-depth interviews attributed this to many factors including the pressure to publish in high-impact journals, and applying for funding. The survey found that the different sectors are working at different scales, and where they do work at the same scale, the definition they place on that scale term is different. The survey and in-depth interviews found that funding can influence the extent of a project and funding timelines lead into the temporal scale of a project. Funding can encourage collaboration with stakeholders and between sectors in order to pool resources and expertise. Alongside clarity of terms used and expectations for the project, collaboration was also put forward as one of the methods which can alleviate scale mismatches.
