Abstract:
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ibuprofen, 200 mg and 400 mg, compared with placebo and each other for the treatment of pain of migraine headache.
                Migraine headache is a common illness with significant social and economic impact.
                Randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial of 6 hours' treatment duration.
                Fifteen investigators at 17 private practice and referral centers in the United States participated in this study of 660 outpatient adults aged 18 to 84 years with migraine headache of moderate to severe intensity. Each patient was randomly assigned to a single dose of study medication: ibuprofen 200 mg (n = 216) or 400 mg (n = 223), or placebo (n = 221). The percentage of patients with a reduction in baseline headache intensity from severe or moderate to mild or none 2 hours after treatment and the headache pain intensity difference from baseline at 2 hours were the primary efficacy measures. Secondary outcomes included other measures of pain relief, severity differences from baseline for migraine-associated symptoms of nausea, photophobia, phonophobia, and functional disability, and percentage of patients with migraine-associated symptoms reduced to none.
                Significantly (P < or = .006) more patients treated with ibuprofen, 200 mg or 400 mg, reported mild to no pain after 2 hours (41.7% and 40.8%, respectively), compared with those treated with placebo (28.1%). The mean pain intensity difference from baseline measured at 2 hours was significantly (P < or = .001) greater for patients treated with ibuprofen 200 mg or 400 mg (0.68 and 0.65, respectively), compared with those treated with placebo (0.39). Statistically significant differences in favor of both doses of ibuprofen over placebo were observed for mean pain intensity difference at 1 hour after treatment. In patients with severe baseline pain intensity, ibuprofen, 400 mg, was significantly (P < or = .048) superior to placebo for the primary efficacy end points, while ibuprofen, 200 mg, was not. Ibuprofen, 200 mg and 400 mg, were statistically significantly more effective than placebo for all clinically important secondary pain relief outcomes. Mean severity changes of migraine-associated symptoms of nausea, photophobia, phonophobia, and functional disability at 2 and 6 hours were significantly (P < or = .03) in favor of both doses of ibuprofen over placebo, and results for the percentage of patients with symptoms reduced to none consistently, although less often statistically significant, favored ibuprofen. No statistically significant differences in adverse events were found among treatment groups.
                Ibuprofen at doses of 200 mg and 400 mg is an efficacious, cost-effective, well-tolerated, single-ingredient nonprescription treatment for pain of migraine headache. In addition, while not always statistically significant, ibuprofen provided a beneficial effect on associated symptoms of migraine including nausea, photophobia, phonophobia, and functional disability.

Abstract:
To investigate the efficacy, tolerability, and safety of rofecoxib and ibuprofen for acute migraine treatment.
                Rofecoxib was effective and well tolerated in a previous study of treatment of a single migraine attack. We sought to replicate these findings for a single attack and also study the clinical profile of rofecoxib in the acute treatment of multiple migraine attacks. Ibuprofen was included as a reference nonselective NSAID.
                Adult migraineurs (n = 783) treated one migraine attack with either rofecoxib (25 or 50 mg), ibuprofen 400 mg, or placebo in a randomized, double-blind study. Patients could elect to enroll in a 3-month double-blind extension phase.
                In the single-attack phase, headache relief at 2 hours postdose was reported by 59.4%, 62.2%, and 57.7% of patients who took rofecoxib 25 mg, rofecoxib 50 mg, and ibuprofen 400 mg, respectively, versus 30.5% for placebo (all P < .001 vs placebo). The active drugs were statistically superior to placebo on a variety of additional measures. In the extension phase, the mean percentage of patients' attacks with headache relief at 2 hours postdose was 61.8% for rofecoxib 25 mg, 65.4% for rofecoxib 50 mg, and 59.3% for ibuprofen 400 mg. The mean percentage of patients' attacks with 24-hour sustained headache relief was greater for rofecoxib 50 mg (52.0%) than for rofecoxib 25 mg (47.8%, P < .050) or ibuprofen (39.0%, P < .010). In the single-attack phase, the adverse event rate was higher for rofecoxib 50 mg (37.8%) than placebo (27.8%, P < .050); rates were similar to placebo for rofecoxib 25 mg (32.0%, n.s.) and ibuprofen 400 mg (28.1%, n.s.). In the extension phase, treatment groups had similar adverse event rates.
                Rofecoxib 25 and 50 mg and ibuprofen 400 mg were effective and generally well tolerated in the acute treatment of migraine.

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a new formulation of ibuprofen (ibuprofen-arginine [IA]) in the treatment of migraine attacks. This is a faster absorbed formulation as compared with ibuprofen alone. The rapidity of action is considered to be a crucial factor in the treatment of migraine attacks. Forty migraine patients participated in this multicenter, double-blind, crossover, randomized, placebo-controlled trial. Each patient was treated with a single oral dose of IA 400 mg or placebo during two consecutive migraine attacks. The results confirm the efficacy of IA, with a significant (p < 0.05) improvement in pain relief at 30 min after treatment. A statistically significant (p < 0.001) reduction in pain intensity was observed at 1, 2, 4 and 6 h after treatment with ibuprofen as compared with placebo. IA was well tolerated and our data indicate that this new formulation of ibuprofen is valuable in the treatment of acute migraine attacks.

Abstract: Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) in combination with metoclopramide has been frequently used in clinical trials in the acute treatment of migraine attacks. Recently the efficacy of a new high buffered formulation of 1000 mg effervescent ASA without metoclopramide compared to placebo has been shown. To further confirm the efficacy of this new formulation in comparison with a triptan and a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (ibuprofen) a three-fold crossover, double-blind, randomized trial with 312 patients was conducted in Germany, Italy and Spain. Effervescent ASA (1000 mg) was compared to encapsulated sumatriptan (50 mg), ibuprofen (400 mg) and placebo. The percentage of patients with reduction in headache severity from moderate or severe to mild or no pain (primary endpoint) was 52.5% for ASA, 60.2% for ibuprofen, 55.8% for sumatriptan and 30.6% for placebo. All active treatments were superior to placebo (P < 0.0001), whereas active treatments were not statistically different. The number of patients who were pain-free at 2 h was 27.1%, 33.2%, 37.1% and 12.6% for those treated with ASA, ibuprofen, sumatriptan or placebo, respectively. The difference between ASA and sumatriptan was statistically significant (P = 0.025). With respect to other secondary efficacy criteria and accompanying symptoms no statistically significant differences between ASA and ibuprofen or sumatriptan were found. Drug-related adverse events were reported in 4.1%, 5.7%, 6.6% and 4.5% of patients treated with ASA, ibuprofen sumatriptan or placebo. This study showed that 1000 mg effervescent ASA is as effective as 50 mg sumatriptan and 400 mg ibuprofen in the treatment of migraine attacks regarding headache relief from moderate/severe to mild/no pain at 2 h. Regarding pain-free at 2 h sumatriptan was most effective.

Abstract:
Compare the effectiveness of a combination analgesic containing acetaminophen, aspirin, and caffeine to that of ibuprofen in the treatment of migraine.
                Multicenter, double-blind, randomized, parallel-group, placebo-controlled, single-dose study. A total of 1555 migraineurs were included in the analysis. No patients were excluded solely because of severity of symptoms or degree of disability. A single 2-tablet dose for each of the 3 treatment groups: a combination product containing acetaminophen 250 mg, aspirin 250 mg, and caffeine 65 mg per tablet (AAC); ibuprofen 200 mg per tablet (IB); or matching placebo. The primary efficacy endpoint was the weighted sum of pain relief (PAR) scores at 2 hours postdose (TOTPAR2) and an important secondary endpoint was the time to onset of meaningful relief.
                There were 669 patients in the AAC group, 666 patients in the IB group, and 220 patients in the placebo group. The 3 treatment groups had similar demographic profiles, migraine histories, and baseline symptom profiles. While both active treatments were significantly better than placebo in relieving the pain and associated symptoms of migraine, AAC was superior to IB for TOTPAR2, as well as for PAR, time to onset of meaningful PAR, pain intensity reduction, headache response, and pain free. The mean TOTPAR2 scores for AAC, IB, and placebo were 2.7, 2.4, and 2.0, respectively (AAC vs. IB, P < .03). The median time to meaningful PAR for AAC was 20 minutes earlier than that of IB (P < .036).
                AAC and IB are safe, cost-effective treatments for migraine; AAC provides significantly superior efficacy and speed of onset compared with IB.

Abstract:
By evaluating the efficacy of metoclopramide alone and in combination with ibuprofen versus placebos, this study was designed to both evaluate the efficacy of metoclopramide and elucidate its mechanism of action in the treatment of migraine headache.
                The study was conducted over a two-year period and was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study.
                An urban teaching hospital.
                Patients enrolled were at least 18 years old and had recurring headaches with one or more of the following characteristics: unilateral, preceded by neurologic symptoms, significant nausea and vomiting, or mood changes and photophobia.
                Ten milligrams of metoclopramide or an equal volume of IV normal saline was given and 600 mg of ibuprofen or identical-appearing placebo was given orally at time 0. Patients rated their pain and nausea at time 0, 30 minutes, and 60 minutes using visual-analog scales.
                The differences in pain and nausea scores for the metoclopramide + placebos group versus the other three groups were tested using exact nonparametric (Mann-Whitney) statistical procedures. The metoclopramide + placebos group had significantly better relief of pain compared with the placebos + ibuprofen and placebos + placebos groups. The metoclopramide + placebos group had significantly better relief of nausea than the ibuprofen + placebos group; nausea scores for the placebos + placebos group could not be analyzed due to excessive variance from the other groups at baseline. The differences between the metoclopramide + placebos group and the metoclopramide + ibuprofen group were not statistically significant with regard to either pain or nausea.
                Metoclopramide is efficacious in the treatment of both the pain and nausea of migraine headache. This is a direct action that is not dependent on the concomitant administration of another agent.

Abstract:
Rofecoxib is a potent cyclo-oxygenase-2 inhibitor with a long duration of action. Its role in migraine has not been systematically evaluated.
                To study the efficacy of rofecoxib in migraine.
                In a randomised placebo controlled trial rofecoxib 25 mg, ibuprofen 400 mg, and placebo were compared regarding their efficacy in relieving acute migraine attack. Migraine patients with 2-6 attacks per month were recruited. Headache severity, functional disability, and severity of associated symptoms were graded on a 0-3 scale. The primary endpoint was pain relief at two hours. Relief of associated symptoms and sustained pain relief for 24 hours were also noted.
                One hundred and twenty four patients were randomised into rofecoxib (42), ibuprofen (40), and placebo (42) groups. One hundred and one patients were followed up: 33 on rofecoxib, 35 ibuprofen, and 33 placebo. Patients' ages ranged from 16-62 (mean 31.4) years, and 83 were females. Pain relief at two hours was noted in 45.5% on rofecoxib, 55.6% on ibuprofen, and 9.1% in the placebo group. The associated symptoms at two hours were reduced in 39.4% on rofecoxib, 50% on ibuprofen, and 9.1% in the placebo group. Sustained 24 hour pain relief was noted in 36.4% on rofecoxib, 41% on ibuprofen, and 6.1% in the placebo group. In the ibuprofen group, five patients had abdominal pain but there were no side effects in those on rofecoxib or in the control group. Both rofecoxib and ibuprofen were significantly effective in relieving pain, associated symptoms at two hours, and in sustained pain relief. There was no significant difference between rofecoxib and ibuprofen in aborting acute migraine attacks.
                Both ibuprofen and rofecoxib were superior to placebo in aborting an acute migraine attack, and there was no significant difference in their efficacy in an acute migraine attack.

Abstract:
The effectiveness of caffeine as an adjuvant to ibuprofen has been documented in investigations of acute pain. Our objectives were to assess this agent in the treatment of tension-type headache and to establish clinical trial methods capable of assessing this agent in comparison with various tension headache treatments. Stopwatch technology was used for measurement techniques.
                A randomized, double-blind, parallel, multicenter, single-dose, placebo- and active-controlled study included 301 subjects diagnosed with tension-type headache. Treatment groups included ibuprofen and caffeine, ibuprofen alone, caffeine alone, or placebo. Subjects measured onset of relief (both time to first perceptible relief and time to meaningful relief) after taking a single oral dose of their assigned medication. Pain intensity and pain relief were rated over a 6-hour study period. Overall evaluation was made on completion of all other ratings.
                Ibuprofen and caffeine administered together provided significantly greater analgesic activity than ibuprofen alone, caffeine alone, and placebo. Ibuprofen and caffeine administered together demonstrated significantly shorter times to meaningful improvement in headache relief than ibuprofen or placebo; significantly greater total analgesia than ibuprofen alone, caffeine alone, or placebo; and significantly greater peak relief than ibuprofen alone, caffeine alone, or placebo. Significantly more subjects obtained meaningful headache relief with ibuprofen and caffeine administered together than with ibuprofen alone or placebo. More patients reported complete headache relief with ibuprofen and caffeine administered together than with ibuprofen alone, caffeine alone, or placebo. Ibuprofen and caffeine administered together was rated significantly better by patients than either ibuprofen alone, caffeine alone, or placebo. No subjects ended participation in the study early because of adverse events.
                Sensitive methods have been introduced to assess differences in analgesia among over-the-counter analgesic agents in relieving tension-type headache pain. A double-blind study with this method suggests that ibuprofen and caffeine administered together provides greater analgesic effectiveness than either component alone.

We found no new studies since the last version of this review. Ibuprofen is an effective treatment for acute migraine headaches, providing pain relief in about half of sufferers, but complete relief from pain and associated symptoms for only a minority. NNTs for all efficacy outcomes were better with 400 mg than 200 mg in comparisons with placebo, and soluble formulations provided more rapid relief. Adverse events were mostly mild and transient, occurring at the same rate as with placebo.


The State Children's Health Insurance Program: a multicenter trial of outreach through the emergency department.

A randomized, controlled trial of the effectiveness of community-based case management in insuring uninsured Latino children.

Abstract:
We evaluated emergency department (ED)-based outreach for the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP).
                We conducted a multicenter trial among uninsured children (< or = 18 years) who presented to 5 EDs in 2001 and 2002. On-site staff enrolled consecutive subjects for a control period followed by an intervention period during which staff handed out SCHIP applications to the uninsured. The primary outcome was state-level confirmation of insured status at 90 days.
                We followed 223 subjects (108 control, 115 intervention) by both phone interview and state records. Compared to control subjects, those receiving a SCHIP application were more likely to have state health insurance at 90 days (42% vs 28%; P<.05; odds ratio [OR]=3.8; 95% confidence interval [CI]=1.7, 8.6). Although the intervention effect was prominent among 118 African Americans (50% insured after intervention vs 31% of controls, P<.05), lack of family enrollment in other public assistance programs was the primary predictor of intervention success (OR=3.7; 95% CI=1.6, 8.4).
                Handing out insurance applications in the ED can be an effective SCHIP enrollment strategy, particularly among minority children without connections to the social welfare system. Adopted nationwide, this simple strategy could initiate insurance coverage for more than a quarter million additional children each year.

Abstract:
Lack of health insurance adversely affects children's health. Eight million US children are uninsured, with Latinos being the racial/ethnic group at greatest risk for being uninsured. A randomized, controlled trial comparing the effectiveness of various public insurance strategies for insuring uninsured children has never been conducted.
                To evaluate whether case managers are more effective than traditional methods in insuring uninsured Latino children.
                Randomized, controlled trial conducted from May 2002 to August 2004.
                A total of 275 uninsured Latino children and their parents were recruited from urban community sites in Boston.
                Uninsured children were assigned randomly to an intervention group with trained case managers or a control group that received traditional Medicaid and State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) outreach and enrollment. Case managers provided information on program eligibility, helped families complete insurance applications, acted as a family liaison with Medicaid/SCHIP, and assisted in maintaining coverage.
                Obtaining health insurance, coverage continuity, the time to obtain coverage, and parental satisfaction with the process of obtaining insurance for children were assessed. Subjects were contacted monthly for 1 year to monitor outcomes by a researcher blinded with respect to group assignment.
                One hundred thirty-nine subjects were assigned randomly to the intervention group and 136 to the control group. Intervention group children were significantly more likely to obtain health insurance (96% vs 57%) and had approximately 8 times the adjusted odds (odds ratio: 7.78; 95% confidence interval: 5.20-11.64) of obtaining insurance. Seventy-eight percent of intervention group children were insured continuously, compared with 30% of control group children. Intervention group children obtained insurance significantly faster (mean: 87.5 vs 134.8 days), and their parents were significantly more satisfied with the process of obtaining insurance.
                Community-based case managers are more effective than traditional Medicaid/SCHIP outreach and enrollment in insuring uninsured Latino children. Case management may be a useful mechanism to reduce the number of uninsured children, especially among high-risk populations.

The two studies included in this review provide evidence that in the US providing health insurance information and application assistance, and handing out application materials in hospital emergency departments can probably both improve insurance coverage of children. Further studies evaluating the effectiveness of different outreach strategies for expanding health insurance coverage of children in different countries are needed, with careful attention given to study design.


Low positioning of umbilical-artery catheters increases associated complications in newborn infants.

Randomized trial of umbilical arterial catheter position: clinical outcome.

Efficacy of thromboresistant umbilical artery catheters in reducing aortic thrombosis and related complications.

Umbilical artery catheters: high, low, or no.

Effect of heparin infusates in umbilical arterial catheters on frequency of thrombotic complications.

Abstract: We performed a randomized prospective study of the effect of placement position of umbilical-artery catheters on complication rates in high-risk newborn infants. A higher complication rate (31 of 40 vs. 13 of 33) (P less than 0.005) occurred in the group with the catheter tip at the third to fourth lumbar segment, as compared to those with the tip at the seventh to eighth thoracic segment, owing to more episodes of blanching and cyanosis of the extremities. There was no difference between groups in the rate of complications requiring catheter removal. Aortography revealed thrombosis in 21 of 23 patients studied, but there was no clinical evidence of impaired circulation. In retrospect, we found that, independently of catheter position, administration of antibiotics through the catheter was associated with an increased rate of complications (63 vs. 20 per cent). Umbilical-artery catheterization entails potential risks regardless of the position of the catheter; placement of the catheter with its tip at the seventh to eighth thoracic segment may be associated with fewer complications than at lower positions.

Abstract: In order to determine if umbilical arterial catheter position affects the incidence of necrotizing enterocolitis, clinical outcome was analysed in 308 infants whose umbilical arterial catheter had been randomly allocated to a high (n = 162) or a low (n = 146) position. Necrotizing enterocolitis was classified as suspected or confirmed; all renal, lower limb and local catheter complications were also recorded. High umbilical arterial catheters were in place for longer than low catheters, provided more samples and were removed as an emergency less often. Lower limb blanching and cyanosis were more common with low catheters. Eleven cases of confirmed necrotizing enterocolitis occurred in the "high" group and nine in the "low" group. One case of fatal aortic thrombosis was encountered in the high group. Positioning umbilical arterial catheters in a high position allowed longer functional use and did not increase the incidence of necrotizing enterocolitis.

Abstract: Previous in vitro and in vivo reports suggest that catheters constructed of polyurethane with heparin bonded to the surface (HB-PU) are less thrombogenic than catheters made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC). A randomized trial sufficiently large (power 80%) to detect a reduction in the incidence of umbilical artery (UA) catheter complications, including aortic thrombus formation, from 45% to 20% was conducted in 125 infants. The infants were monitored for complications possibly related to the use of a UA catheter, such as systemic hypertension and abnormalities of lower extremity perfusion. The presence of aortic thrombi was assessed by ultrasound study 3.5 +/- 1.2 (SD) days and 11.1 +/- 2.3 days after insertion of the catheter. The use of HB-PU umbilical catheters did not lead to a significant reduction in the incidence of complications and aortic thrombi compared with the use of PVC catheters. The lack of reduction may have been related to the prolonged duration of catheter use in both groups. A much larger study would have been required to detect a smaller, but perhaps clinically significant, reduction in catheter-associated complications.

Abstract: We studied 111 infants requiring an umbilical artery catheter, 59 with heparin and 52 without. Thirty-four thrombi were detected, 16 in the heparin group and 18 in the control group. The numbers of thrombi in the two groups was not significantly different, but the number of clotted or nonfunctioning umbilical artery catheters was greater in the control group (P less than 0.05), as was the incidence of hypertension (P less than 0.05). There were no other significant differences between the two groups. We conclude that the use of low doses of heparin may not change the incidence of umbilical artery catheter-related thrombi, but it does appear to lower the incidence of their sequelae.

There appears to be no evidence to support the use of low placed umbilical artery catheters. High catheters should be used exclusively.

Carrie: Just back from Fantastic Beast :)
Gina: and what do you think?
Carrie: generally good - as usual nice special effect and visuals, an ok plot, a glimpse of the wizarding community in the US.
Alex: Sounds cool. I was thinking of going this weekend with Lane, but I've seen some bad reviews.
Carrie: Depends on what you expect really - I have a lot of sentiment towards Harry Potter so, I'm gonna like everything the do. But seriously the movie was decent. However, if you're expecting to have your mind blown, then no, it's not THAT good.
Gina: I agree. I saw it last week and basically I'm satisfied.
Alex: No spoilers, girls.
Carrie: no worries ;)
Carrie: And Gina, what do you think about Eddie Redmayne as Newt?
Gina: I loved him <3 I loved how introverted and awkward he was and how caring he was towards the animals. And with all that he showed a lot of confidence in his beliefs and was a genuinely compassionate character
Carrie: not your standard protagonist, that's for sure
Gina: and that's what I liked about him
Alex: Maybe I'll go and see it sooner so we can all talk about it.
Carrie: go see it. If' you're not expecting god-knows-what you're going to enjoy it ;)

Carrie and Gina saw "Fantastic Beast" and liked it. Ginna loved Eddie Redmayne as Newt.

Context: One of the most prominent Huguenot refugees in the Netherlands was Pierre Bayle. He started teaching in Rotterdam, where he finished writing and publishing his multi-volume masterpiece, Historical and Critical Dictionary. It became one of the 100 foundational texts of the US Library of Congress. Some Huguenot descendants in the Netherlands may be noted by French family names, although they typically use Dutch given names. Due to the Huguenots' early ties with the leadership of the Dutch Revolt and their own participation, some of the Dutch patriciate are of part-Huguenot descent. Some Huguenot families have kept alive various traditions, such as the celebration and feast of their patron Saint Nicolas, similar to the Dutch Sint Nicolaas (Sinterklaas) feast.

Question: Is Saint Nicolas or Sint Nicolaas celebrated earlier in the year in the Netherlands?


Context: The University of Chicago Library system encompasses six libraries that contain a total of 9.8 million volumes, the 11th most among library systems in the United States. The university's main library is the Regenstein Library, which contains one of the largest collections of print volumes in the United States. The Joe and Rika Mansueto Library, built in 2011, houses a large study space and an automatic book storage and retrieval system. The John Crerar Library contains more than 1.3 million volumes in the biological, medical and physical sciences and collections in general science and the philosophy and history of science, medicine, and technology. The university also operates a number of special libraries, including the D'Angelo Law Library, the Social Service Administration Library, and the Eckhart Library for mathematics and computer science, which closed temporarily for renovation on July 8, 2013. Harper Memorial Library no longer contains any volumes; however it is, in addition to the Regenstein Library, a 24-hour study space on campus.

Question: The University of Chicago Library system has how many libraries in total?


Context: The definition of imperialism has not been finalized for centuries and was confusedly seen to represent the policies of major powers, or simply, general-purpose aggressiveness. Further on, some writers[who?] used the term imperialism, in slightly more discriminating fashion, to mean all kinds of domination or control by a group of people over another. To clear out this confusion about the definition of imperialism one could speak of "formal" and "informal" imperialism, the first meaning physical control or "full-fledged colonial rule" while the second implied less direct rule though still containing perceivable kinds of dominance. Informal rule is generally less costly than taking over territories formally. This is because, with informal rule, the control is spread more subtly through technological superiority, enforcing land officials into large debts that cannot be repaid, ownership of private industries thus expanding the controlled area, or having countries agree to uneven trade agreements forcefully.

Question: Some have generalized the meaning of the word imperialism down to general-purpose what?

aggressiveness aggressiveness aggressiveness aggressiveness aggressiveness

Context: One key figure in the plans for what would come to be known as American Empire, was a geographer named Isiah Bowman. Bowman was the director of the American Geographical Society in 1914. Three years later in 1917, he was appointed to then President Woodrow Wilson's inquiry in 1917. The inquiry was the idea of President Wilson and the American delegation from the Paris Peace Conference. The point of this inquiry was to build a premise that would allow for U.S authorship of a 'new world' which was to be characterized by geographical order. As a result of his role in the inquiry, Isiah Bowman would come to be known as Wilson's geographer.

Question: What was the premise of Woodrow Wilson's inquiry?

Context: The acme of the horizontal engine was the Corliss steam engine, patented in 1849, which was a four-valve counter flow engine with separate steam admission and exhaust valves and automatic variable steam cutoff. When Corliss was given the Rumford medal the committee said that "no one invention since Watt's time has so enhanced the efficiency of the steam engine". In addition to using 30% less steam, it provided more uniform speed due to variable steam cut off, making it well suited to manufacturing, especially cotton spinning.

Question: What award was given to Corliss?

the Rumford medal

Context: Newton's Second Law asserts the direct proportionality of acceleration to force and the inverse proportionality of acceleration to mass. Accelerations can be defined through kinematic measurements. However, while kinematics are well-described through reference frame analysis in advanced physics, there are still deep questions that remain as to what is the proper definition of mass. General relativity offers an equivalence between space-time and mass, but lacking a coherent theory of quantum gravity, it is unclear as to how or whether this connection is relevant on microscales. With some justification, Newton's second law can be taken as a quantitative definition of mass by writing the law as an equality; the relative units of force and mass then are fixed.

Question: Deceleration can be described through what?


Context: During this time, the discovery of oil in the North Sea and the following "It's Scotland's oil" campaign of the Scottish National Party (SNP) resulted in rising support for Scottish independence, as well as the SNP. The party argued that the revenues from the oil were not benefitting Scotland as much as they should. The combined effect of these events led to Prime Minister Wilson committing his government to some form of devolved legislature in 1974. However, it was not until 1978 that final legislative proposals for a Scottish Assembly were passed by the United Kingdom Parliament.

Question: Which sea was oil discovered in?

The most important detail in this context concerns however the spatial distribution of dipole moments. For this purpose the orientation of each water molecule was extracted from the last part of the 12 ns trajectory (1 ns) and employed to build the spherical probability maps shown in Fig. 5. The probability density is normalized so as to give an integral over all orientations equal to one. For comparison, a similar-size model of ice VII was also built and equilibrated at constant pressure P = 10 GPa and T = 300 K (see Methods for the choice of the pressure).


In a recent study published in the *Journal of Breast Cancer*, Mehrotra et al.

\[[@B1]\] reported incidental breast cancers identified in a one-stop symptomatic breast clinic where patients receive the results of their radiological examinations and tissue sampling on the same day.

Medical environments differ from country to country and from culture to culture.

Nevertheless, breast cancer is the most frequent cancer among women in developed and developing countries \[[@B2]\].

They reported 87.2% symptomatic cancers and 12.8% incidental cancers using a definition of symptomatic cancers as \"breast cancers correlated to the patient\'s symptoms\" and that of incidental cancers as \"breast cancers detected only by imaging in a completely separate location to the site of presenting symptoms and not palpable by the clinician.\" In this study, the mean age of patients with symptomatic cancers and incidental cancers was 64 and 63 years, respectively.

Because a variety of symptoms can be presented, such as pain or hypochondria, it is unclear whether their one-stop symptomatic breast clinic is treating symptomatic patients or being used for screening.

How can we clearly separate a symptomatic clinic from a screening clinic?

However, the point of this study may not be regarding the one-stop or the symptomatic breast clinic.

According to a recent study from the UK, 80% of breast cancers occur in women aged over 50 years \[[@B3]\].

Based on this, they suggested mammography of both breasts and whole breast ultrasonography of the symptomatic breast to identify incidental breast cancers in a country where the mean age of patients with breast cancer is more than 60 years of age.

It is interesting when we consider the most recent data of nationwide Korean patients with breast cancer reported by the Korean Breast Cancer Society in 2008.

These data were collected from all patients who had been newly diagnosed and registered throughout the year.

The report revealed that 82.2% (5,059/6,151) of patients had an initial symptom of a palpable tumor and 17.8% (1,092/6,151) of patients had an initial symptom of a non-palpable tumor, and that the mean age of all patients was 49.8 years.

Then, what shall we do for a country in which more than half of patients with breast cancer are younger than 50 years?

Although mammography is an established screening method for breast cancer, and high breast density has been suggested as a risk factor, it has been unclear particularly in young Asian women.

In a recent Korean study, 68.8% of women in their 40s and 35.5% of women in their 50s had \"heterogeneously dense\" or \"extremely dense\" breasts, respectively \[[@B4]\].

This is not much different from a previous study of 823 asymptomatic Korean women that showed that the frequency of a dense mammogram was 88.1% in 30-34 year old, 91.1% in 35-39 year old, 78.3% in 40-44 year old, 61.1% in 45-49 year old, 30.1% in 50-54 year old, 21.1% in 55-59 year old and 7.0% in 60-64 year old women.

They also pointed out that 47.2% of 40-44 year old, 44.8% of 45-49 year old and 44.4% of 50-54 year old Western women, which is very different breast density \[[@B5]\].

Because of the high probability of dense breasts, it seems that ultrasonography should be the major imaging modality for very young Korean women.

Recently, a Korean study of 811 young women under the age of 30 indicated that the incidence of BI-RADS categories 3, 4, and 5 were 49.2%, 16.5%, and 0.6%, respectively.

For the symptomatic patients, the cancer rates for categories 3, 4, and 5 were 0.3%, 6.3%, and 100%, and for the asymptomatic group, the cancer rates were 0%, 8.7%, and 100%, respectively \[[@B6]\].

However, breast screening ultrasonography is still not considered the standard examination.

In Japan, the peak incidence of breast cancer occurs in women in their late 40s, as in Korea.

According to a Japanese study of nearly 50,000 cases, 7.5-MHz screening ultrasonography failed to show that breast ultrasonography as a screening tool reduces mortality from breast cancer \[[@B7]\].

It is clear that using breast screening ultrasonography can be helpful for patients with dense breasts, but it is controversial.

Its feasibility is dependent on the personnel performing the exam and machine quality \[[@B8],[@B9]\].

In Korea, the medical insurance run by the government does not reimburse for breast ultrasonography, so patients pay, and the cost varies according to the performer, machine, and the hospital level in the referral system.

We will have a better overview soon, as a large-scaled randomized control trial is currently ongoing in Japan to compare mammography alone with mammography combined with ultrasonography at 2-year intervals to investigate which is more useful to decrease breast cancer mortality \[[@B7]\].

It is common for Asian women to have small dense breasts.

Caution should be taken when performing ultrasonography for a non-palpable lesion, as non-palpable breast cancers may have different ultrasound characteristics \[[@B10]\].

Currently, it may be recommended to perform breast screening ultrasonography for selected patients, particularly for the young Korean women with dense or symptomatic breasts.


Q:

Loop to check file existence without DIR function

I need to make a loop that will save the edited files in a folder in numerical order, but if I run the macro again it needs to keep from the last number:
wb.

SaveAs "C:\User\Desktop\Data\" & i & ".dat"
i = i + 1

Here the code saves the files in order (1,2,3).

And if I run the macro again it needs to save (4,5,6).

I tried to use this loop above to save the function:
Do While Dir("C:\User\Desktop\Data\" & i & ".dat") = i
    i = i + 1
Loop

But apparently, I can't use the DIR function, because I'm already using it at the end of the loop to get the next file, and the loop breaks.

'Get next file name
 MyFile = Dir

So, is there's any way to do this?

I'm trying to make a function that would check and return true or false to whether a file with that number already exists, but could not make it work.

A:

You could get the largest number in the directory, and keep going from there?

This code presumes that all the files are named as such: [numericalfilename].[extension]   for example "143.dat".

This code will not work if there are alpha characters in the file-name (apart from extension)
Once you have defined Path and Extension variables, you can call the Function NextNumber which will give you [MaxNumber_In_Directory] + 1
From here you can perform your "save loop", by setting i = NextNumber(Path, "*." &

Ext)
Sub test()
Dim Path As String
Dim Ext As String
Dim i as Long

' ***** REPLACE VARIABLES ******

    Path = "C:\New\New Folder"
    Ext = "dat"

' ******************************

    i = NextNumber("C:\New\New Folder", "*." &

SaveAs "C:\User\Desktop\Data\" & i & ".dat"
    i = i + 1

End Sub

Public Function NextNumber(strPath As String, strExt As String) As Long
Dim vArray(500)
Dim i As Long
Dim length As Long
ChDir strPath
strExtension = Dir(strExt)

        'Perform Loop
        Do While strExtension <> ""
            length = Len(strExtension) - (Len(strExt) - 2) - 1
            vArray(i) = CLng(Mid(strExtension, 1, length))
             i = i + 1
            strExtension = Dir
        Loop

NextNumber = WorksheetFunction.


'Ex FIFA boss paid millions by Qataris to host World Cup'

LONDON: A former senior official of FIFA and his family were paid almost $2 million (pounds1.2m) from a Qatari firm linked to the Gulf state's successful bid for the 2022 World Cup finals, according to a report in Tuesday's edition of Britain's Daily Telegraph newspaper.

The Telegraph said Jack Warner, the former vice-president of FIFA, appeared to have been personally paid dollars 1.2 million (pounds 720,000) from a company controlled by a former Qatari official shortly after the controversial decision to award the country the tournament.

Payments totalling almost dollars 750,000 (pounds 450,000) were made to Mr Warner's sons, according to documents seen by the Telegraph.

A further dollars 400,000 (pounds 240,000) was paid to one of his employees.

The Telegraph also said a company owned by Mohamed Bin Hammam, the then FIFA executive member for Qatar, appeared to pay dollars 1.2 million (pounds 720,000) to Mr Warner in 2011.

Bin Hammam, who launched an abortive challenge against incumbent FIFA president Sepp Blatter, resigned from his FIFA and Asian Football Confederation posts in 2012, shortly before was banned for life from football administration by the global governing body's ethics committee.

Warner was one of the most experienced members of the executive committee until he stood down in 2011 and served as vice-president of FIFA for 14 years.

He was one of the 22 people who decided to award Russia the 2018 World Cup and Qatar the 2022 tournament.

Six weeks before the December 2010 vote in Zurich that decided the hosts of the 2018 and 2022 World Cups, an official was caught in an undercover investigation agreeing to sell his vote.

A second member of the same committee was recorded asking for pounds 1.5 million for a sports academy.

Both officials were suspended, meaning that 22 people voted instead of the usual 24.

The decision to give the World Cup to Qatar, a country with little football history, provoked widespread condemnation particularly over health concerns for leading players forced to play in the desert nation's stifling summer heat.

Such was the backlash football chiefs are now considering moving the tournament to the European winter for the first time, even though this could have a severe adverse knock-on effect on some of the sport's major domestic competitions such as the lucrative English Premier League.

There was a particularly bitter reaction to the whole process in England, the birthplace of modern-day football, after the country's bid to stage the 2018 finals garnered a mere two votes and was eliminated in the first ballot.

Giving evidence to a subsequent British parliamentary inquiry, Lord David Triesman, the English bid's former chairman, named Warner as four FIFA executive committee members had asked for business deals and favours when negotiating their support

In June 2011, Trinidad-based Warner resigned from all football posts after he was accused of facilitating bribes to members of the Caribbean football union (CONCACAF) on behalf of Bin Hammam, who was standing against Blatter.

A FIFA ethics committee found there was "compelling" evidence Warner was "an accessory to corruption".

The Telegraph said Warner and his family had declined to comment on their report but a spokesman for Qatar's 2022 World Cup organising committee told the paper: "The 2022 bid committee strictly adhered to FIFA's bidding regulations in compliance with their code of ethics.

"The supreme committee for delivery and legacy and the individuals involved in the 2022 bid committee are unaware of any allegations surrounding business dealings between private individuals."


Metastatic cancer of unknown primary site (CUP syndrome) comprises 2-5% of all solid malignant tumors.

One should distinguish between initial CUP (primary tumor later detected) and the true CUP syndrome (primary tumor remains unknown for a patient's lifetime despite thorough diagnostic work-up).

For initial CUP, the most important auxiliary diagnostic method is immunohistochemistry, which should be applied in a two-step algorithmic fashion.

Firstly, a small marker panel (including certain cytokeratins) yields a preliminary categorization of the tumor.

Secondly, selective, organ-specific markers (including recently established markers such as TTF-1 and uroplakin) and further tumor group markers may further subclassify or even identify the primary tumor.

Although they are a heterogeneous group, true CUP tumors share some unique biological features such as an early metastatic phenotype and unusual metastasis patterns, and they mostly have a very poor prognosis.

Even autopsy reveals the primary site in only 55-80% of cases, most commonly in the lung and pancreas.

True CUP tumors, predominantly adenocarcinomas and poorly differentiated carcinomas, may exhibit unusual immunohistochemical phenotypes.

Nevertheless, careful histologic and immunohistochemical examination are essential not only for determining the actual tumor immunophenotype but in particular for identifying therapy-responsive subgroups such as neck lymph node CUP, axillary lymph node CUP of females, neuroendocrine CUP, and germ cell tumor CUP of males.

For CUP syndrome, future interdisciplinary research efforts are needed, such as gene expression profiling using microarrays.

It is thus to be hoped that pathology will contribute to the elucidation of the largely still enigmatic pathogenesis of the CUP syndrome, to improve its diagnosis and classification and, finally, to aid in the development of more specific therapeutic regimens.

Whoa, whoa, Im radioactive, radioactive
All systems go, sun hasnt died
Deep in my bones, straight from inside
Bury me alive, bury me with pride
Bury me with berries, that forbidden fruit and cherry wine
Thank you berry much, but tonights my night and Im Barry Bonds
Swingin for the fences, barbaric Kendrick in idle time
Everything in lifes subject to change, change whip, change grind
Change clothes, change opinions, right before I change my mind
I dont really know yah business, been in there since I was bendin Lego blocks
Now you tell the world about me, dry snitch
Tater tots on my shotgun, now I gotta pop one at the stars
Skys the limit, I gotta finish as the first rapper on Mars
Mark my word, Ima make my mark, even when they start their Martial Law
Even when these Martians alienate, my mental state is still at heart
Fuck, look in my eyes, tell me I died, tell me I tried, to compromise
Tell me you love me, tell me that I, dont give a fuck and can barely decide
Wishin good luck on my enemies, all of my energy go to the almighty God
I could drown in a bottle of Hennessy, fuck your amenities, Im gettin better with time
AHHHHH!
Im wakin up, I feel it in my bones
Enough to make my systems blow
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Whoa, whoa, Im radioactive, radioactive
Whoa, whoa, Im radioactive, radioactive
Im radioactive, radioactive


There she goes in front of me
Take my life and set me free again
Well make a memory out of it
Holy road is at my back
Dont look on, take me back again
Well make a memory out of it
We finally fall apart
And we break each others hearts
If we wanna live young, love
We better start today
Its gotta get easier and easier somehow
Cause Im falling, Im falling
Oh, easier and easier somehow
Oh, Im calling, Im calling
And it isnt over unless it is over
I dont wanna wait for that
Its gotta get easier and easier somehow
But not today, not today
There she goes in front of me
Take my life, set me free again
Well make a memory out of it
Holy road was at my back
Dont look on, take me back again
Well make a memory out of it
We finally fall apart
And we break each others hearts
If we wanna live young, love
We better start today
Its gotta get easier and easier somehow
Cause Im falling, Im falling
Oh, easier and easier somehow
Oh, Im calling, Im calling
And it isnt over unless it is over
I dont wanna wait for that
Its gotta get easier and easier
So come with me
Youll come with me
So come with me
Youll come with me
Not today
Not today
Not today
Not today
Its gotta get easier and easier somehow
Cause Im falling, Im falling
Oh, easier and easier somehow
Oh, Im calling, Im calling
And it isnt over unless it is over
I dont wanna wait for that
Its gotta get easier and easier somehow
Its gotta get easier and easier somehow
Not today, not today
Not today, not today
Not today

Kelly: Oh! Oh! Can I pick the first question?
Jessica: Sure. Go for it!
Kelly: What's the scariest place you've been to!
Jessica: I'll start: Palermo in Italy.
Mickey: And what's so scary about that? Did you break your nail? :P
Jessica: Shut it, Mickey! No, there are the Capuchin Catacombs with 8000 corpses!
Kelly: Ewwww! Corpses? Rly?
Jessica: Yeah! And you can look at them like museum exhibits. I think they're divided somehow, but have no clue how!
Ollie: That's so cool! Do you get to see the bones or are they covered up?
Jessica: Well, partly. Most of them were exhibited in their clothes. Basically only skulls and hands.
Mickey: I'm writing this one down! That's so precious!
Ollie: Me too!


Carrie: Just back from Fantastic Beast :)
Gina: and what do you think?
Carrie: generally good - as usual nice special effect and visuals, an ok plot, a glimpse of the wizarding community in the US.
Alex: Sounds cool. I was thinking of going this weekend with Lane, but I've seen some bad reviews.
Carrie: Depends on what you expect really - I have a lot of sentiment towards Harry Potter so, I'm gonna like everything the do. But seriously the movie was decent. However, if you're expecting to have your mind blown, then no, it's not THAT good.
Gina: I agree. I saw it last week and basically I'm satisfied.
Alex: No spoilers, girls.
Carrie: no worries ;)
Carrie: And Gina, what do you think about Eddie Redmayne as Newt?
Gina: I loved him <3 I loved how introverted and awkward he was and how caring he was towards the animals. And with all that he showed a lot of confidence in his beliefs and was a genuinely compassionate character
Carrie: not your standard protagonist, that's for sure
Gina: and that's what I liked about him
Alex: Maybe I'll go and see it sooner so we can all talk about it.
Carrie: go see it. If' you're not expecting god-knows-what you're going to enjoy it ;)


Samantha: How are you doing today?
Robyn: better, but I really exaggerated with bier last night
Samantha: was it really only bier?

Samantha: I'm only asking, I don't have anything against drugs
Robyn: but I have and I never take them
Samantha: ok, sorry, I didn't intend to offend you
Robyn: I just drank too much, that's eat
Samantha: much too much
Robyn: yes, I lost control a bit
Robyn: I am sorry for that
Samantha: important that you feel better today

Gurdun: Hi Ross, a little bit better, yes, thank you.
Russ: Do you think you'll be back at the uni this week?
Gurdun: Not tomorrow for sure, but I hope Wednesday maybe.
Russ: Oh, that's fine.
Gurdun: Yeah. I'm feeling a bit weak still
Russ: I guess that's pretty normal at this stage.
Gurdun: I believe so. And the muscle pain.
Russ: I know what you mean. I had flu like that three months ago.
Gurdun: Luckily the headache's gone. It was absolutely awful.
Russ: True enough. I had the same.
Gurdun: Anyway, how are things with you?
Russ: Same old, same old, you know. Not much happening in the middle of term.

Lorena: Hi, can you help me with something?
Martin: Well, I can try.
Martin: Depends what it is?
Lorena: I got a new desk and it comes with assembly instructions but I give up, I just can't do it.
