Definite Result

Results of our previous work were published in the Journ. of Agric. Sri., IV, 1911. There, also, a brief summary of the chief papers published on the subject of the fat globules was given, to which it is unnecessary to refer in detail here.When the work was first commenced in 1909, the problem before us was the consideration of the variation in the size of the fat globules, with relation to churning, as regards the different breeds of cattle. The breed was considered because it was usually supposed that this was one of the chief factors which influenced churning. The most definite result of our work was that it was shown that consideration must be given to the character of the milk, irrespective of the breed. This conclusion is quite contrary to that of other workers, but an examination of their figures shows, undoubtedly, that this is actually the case: the results given by Woll (Digestion Expts., Seventh Annual Report, Agric. Expt. Stat, Wisconsin, 1890, 238; also Agric. Sci., 1892, vi, 445) emphasise this point particularly. It is also shown by this year's work, as may be seen from Tables V–XI.The comparative size of the globules has been worked out very thoroughly by Gutzeit, who measured the mean volume of the globule. Other workers give their results as “relative sizes.” In our work we attempted to ascertain the distribution of the fat in the globules, and to this end the number of globules of each size was determined, and curves were drawn. The result of this, however, was negative. At that time we were considering the breeds of the cows from which the milks were obtained; had we considered them solely as milks of a certain mean size of globule, much more might have been achieved.An apparatus was devised to give an absolute figure for the churnability of any cream, but, until the effect of the other factors has been determined, it is impossible to interpret the results. Some experiments to ascertain the optimum temperature were described also.

SummaryThe objective of the present study was to determine clinical and arthroscopic characteristics associated with dorso-proximal proximal phalanx (P1) fragments in Warmblood horses, as well as to examine their histopathological appearance. One hundred sixty-eight fragments were removed from 150 fetlocks of 117 Warmblood horses. Details of signalment and results of clinical examination were collected prior to surgery. After arthroscopic fragment removal and joint evaluation for synovial and/or cartilage abnormalities, the fragments were measured and evaluated histopathologically. The vast majority of the fragments (95.2%) were found medially, without predilection for front or hind limbs. In 10% of the joints, more than one fragment was present. The mean size of the fragments was 6.8 ± 2.6 mm. Only eight horses presented fetlock-related lameness. Horses of seven years of age and older (OR=13.32; p=0.033) and the presence of more than one fragment (OR=11.12; p=0.016) were significantly associated with lameness. Arthroscopic evaluation revealed one or more abnormalities in 50.7% of the joints. On histopathology, osteochondral fragments presented as a bony center covered with smooth hyaline cartilage on one side and some fibrous tissue on the other side. No clear histopathological signs were indicating precisely their origin. In Warmblood horses with dorsoproximal P1 fragments, the age (seven years and older) and the presence of more than one fragment in a fetlock significantly increased the risk of lameness. The osteochondral dorsoproximal P1 fragments could be defined as a developmental orthopaedic disease.

It is increasingly realized that hypnosis may be seen from an interpersonal point of view, meaning that it forms part of the relationship between the hypnotist and the subject. From this premise it follows that what goes on in the relationship prior to hypnosis probably has an influence on the hypnosis. Certain of these prior occurences can then be seen as waking suggestionns (however implicitly given) that the subject should behave in a certain way with regard to the subsequent hypnosis. A study was conducted to test the hypothesis that waking suggestions regarding post-hypnotic amnesia are effective. Eighteen female subjects were randomly divided into two groups. The groups listened to a tape-recorded talk on hypnosis in which for the one group amnesia for the subsequent hypnotic experience and for the other group no such amnesia was suggested. Thereafter the Stanford Hypnotic Susceptibility Scale was administered to all subjects. Only the interrogation part of the amnesia item of the scale was administered. The subjects to whom post-hypnotic amnesia was suggested tended to score lower on the amnesia item than the other subjects, as was expected, but the difference between the mean amnesia scores of the two groups was not significant.

Colour discrimination was investigated in infants aged 4 – 14 months. 250 healthy subjects and 80 subjects with slight defects in basic visual functions (the risk group) participated. A coloured toy was moved in front of the subject and disappeared behind a screen, reappearing after 2 – 3 s at the other side. Sometimes when the toy was hidden, the experimenter replaced it with another one that differed only in colour: yellow was replaced by blue or vice versa (Y/B switch), or red by green or vice versa (R/G switch). The form and size of the toy remained constant. The emotional reaction of surprise showed whether the infant discriminated these colour pairs. The brightness of the stimuli was slightly varied make sure that the infant reacted to the change in colour rather than brightness. About 75% of healthy 4 – 5-month-olds showed good expressive reactions to the Y/B switch, and practically all children did so at 7 – 8 months. The discrimination of red and green develops more slowly: only at 12 months did practically all children show good reactions to the R/G switch. In all children, Y/B discrimination preceded R/G discrimination. The mean difference between the numbers of children discriminating these two pairs was 7.6%. The infants of the risk group were as good as their healthy age-mates in Y/B discrimination, but performed significantly less well on R/G: the mean difference between the numbers discriminating the former but not the latter was 17.0%. Possible reasons for the retardation of chromatic discrimination in the risk group are discussed.

The microstructure evolution and the dynamic processes of grain refinement in a 304-type austenitic stainless steel during multiple calibre hot rolling at temperatures of 700-1000°C were studied. The structural changes are characterized by the elongation of original grains towards the rolling axis and the development of new fine grains, the mean size of which decreases with decreasing the deformation temperature. During multiple rolling at 1000°C, the new grains resulted from the development of discontinuous dynamic recrystallization involving a bulging of frequently corrugated grain boundaries. On the other hand, the new grain boundaries leading to remarkable refinement of original microstructure were developed at temperatures below 800°C as a result of continuous strain-induced reactions.

A subsample of eggs from 109 walleye (Stizostedion vitreum) from Crean Lake, Saskatchewan, was sieved soon after fertilization to yield four groups of eggs ranging in size from 4.86 to 5.62 mm3. Overall egg size tended to correspond to yolk and oil volumes. At hatching, larvae from the eggs with the least yolk and oil were significantly shorter than larvae from all other egg groups. At the end of the experiment, 13 d after hatching, the larvae from the eggs with the most yolk were significantly larger than larvae from the other egg groups. Differences in the mean amount of food ingested by larvae were related to initial egg size. The yolk of the smallest eggs was deficient in the (n-3) series of polyunsaturated fatty acids. Larvae from these small eggs had a high level of major body deformities and a mortality rate which reached 100% by day 10. Small egg size in itself did not appear disadvantageous; larvae from a different stock (Lake of the Prairies, Manitoba) which produced eggs with a mean size less than that of the smallest sieved eggs, had survival and growth rates comparable with those of the larger Crean Lake eggs.

AbstractIntroduction. Physiological intracranial calcifications have an increasing prevalence with the age and can be found in both children and in adults. These calcifications are basically asymptomatic and their presence can only be noticed through neuro-imaging.The aim of the paper was to evaluate physiological intracranial calcifications in children using computed tomography, in our conditions.Materials and methods. The study was designed as a retrospective, observational, non-randomized clinical study. It was conducted at the Department of Radiology, Clinical Center Kragujevac, Serbia. The study included all the patients scanned by CT from 1st October, 2008. to 30th September, 2018.. The criteria for the inclusion were: the patients aged up to 18 years who underwent a non-contrast computed tomography in the observed period, with diagnosed intracranial calcifications that do not have pathological etiology.Results. Our study included 420 patients. Out of them, 213 (50.7%) were boys and 207 (49.3%) were girls. The mean age was 12.47. We divided the patients into two age categories: the first one included the patients aged 1 to 10 years and the other one included the patients aged 11 to 18 years. Our study has demonstrated that physiological intracranial calcifications are the most frequent in habenula (28.1%), followed by the pineal gland (22.6%) and choroid plexus (18.8%).Conclusion. There is a small number of studies with the subject of physiological intracranial calcification distribution, especially in children. It is important to know in which locations we can expect physiological intracranial calcifications, as well as the age in which they become detectable by imaging, in order not to mix them with hemorrhages, pathological tumor or metabolic mineralization.

In the present study two groups of alluvial fans from two different regions in Greece were comparetively studied, the first in the region of Sperchios river and the second in the region ofEurotas river. Distinct morphometric characteristics of the drainage basins of the tributaries Ts er lias, Xerias, Gorgopotamos, Kerasias, Retsas and Kakaris, as well as their fans were measured and compared. Furthermore ,the longitudinal stream profiles were mapped, pebble measurements were made and contour crenulations of the fans were studied. In gravelometry, it was found that the mean size M of the pebbles decreases from the apex to the apron of the fan. The crenulation analysis showed that the fans of the streams ofEurotas region have undergone greater erosion than those of Sperchios region. Remarkable differences exist between the fans of the two regions. These results lead to the conclusion that recent tectonism, the prevailing lithology and climate are responsible for the formation and evolution of the fans and also influence their shape, area and all the other morphometric characteristics

Main Figure

In the Annual Report of the Archaeological Survey of India, 1923–4, pp. 125–6, Pl. XLI, c Mr. H. Hargreaves published an ‘unidentified relief from Gandhara’ the subject of which has not yet been explained. The relief (fig. 1), which is believed to have come from one of the numerous mounds in the Mardan subdivision of the Peshawar district, was the property of Mr. F. V. Wylie, I.C.S. (now Sir Francis Wylie, K.C.S.I., C.I.E.) then stationed at Mardan. The scene represents on the left a woman rushing out of a gateway in an attitude combining horror with warning; her arms are uplifted; she is naked to the waist and wears anklets and necklets. Mr. Hargreaves suggested she wore a crenellated crown and might be a city goddess. She seems, however, only to wear her hair in the usual Indian fashion in a top knot. She is obviously expressing hosror at the scene on the right and imploring the participants to desist. The main figure on the right is a tall, fully robed man thrusting a spear into the chest of a horse which is mounted on wheels. Behind the horse is another similarly clothed male figure—young or at least unbearded—with his hands resting on the flanks of the horse and apparently thrusting it forward. Between these two figures is another, an elderly bearded man standing on the other side of the horse. The dress of the male figure is classical, indeed one might say Roman; certainly their footwear appears to be Roman. The lady, however, is depicted in regular Indian fashion. On the extreme right is a standing soldier holding a spear, much damaged. The faces of the male figures are all more or less damaged, but they are certainly laymen and not any of the familiar figures of the usual Buddhist sculptures of Gandhara.

Synthetic speech-like articulations were presented to adult subjects via the visual modality, following the classic categorical perception experimental paradigm (Liberman, Harris, Hoffman, & Griffith, 1957). Animations were generated on a computer-based graphics system. Stimuli consisted of representations of the syllables /b/,/v b/, and/w b/; as well as 6 linearly interpolated intermediate stimuli between each of the possible exemplar pairs, resulting in three 8-item continua. Three sets of observations were obtained for these stimuli. First, for each continuum, labeling data were obtained in which the subject assigned one or the other exemplar label to each of the stimuli. Next, ABX discrimination data were obtained for each continuum. In the final task, subjects assigned a rating of one through nine to each animation indicating the extent to which it was like the exemplar syllables. Although the labeling functions showed rather abrupt transitions from one response category to the other, the peaks in the discrimination functions did not coincide with the category boundaries. Further, the mean rating functions were relatively linear, and the distribution of rating responses revealed unimodal distributions whose peak locations differed depending on the stimulus.
