The language of literary tourism and the promotion of literary places: The special case of Sherlock Holmes
openThe literary tourism has developed quickly over time. This kind of tourism has an ancient origin and it only recently has joined the cultural tourism. There are reviews about the background of literary tourism and the different kinds of genres met with their relative language. London is an important example of a city of many authors and places for a lot of works and, in particular, it can be mentioned for the adventures of Sherlock Holmes. His famous address 221B Baker Street has been necessarily created and it brings a lot of tourists curious to visit the apartment built on literary references every year. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was an author, a journalist and a doctor, and he has written many works using different genres. About 60 of them tell the cases of Sherlock Holmes and his roommate John Watson. These are written as journals and it is introduced the science of deduction, that represents the ideals of Victorian time such as resourceful, smart and insightful. It is possible to find many museums and sites around the world dedicated to the detective, but only four of them are remarkable because they recreate the apartment, where the two friends live. These last can be found in Lucens, Meirigen, Minnesota and London. The literary places are an important part of the tourism and especially the people fond of the sleuth require to visit them
Spindle dynamics model explains chromosome loss rates in yeast polyploid cells
Faithful chromosome segregation, driven by the mitotic spindle, is essential for organismal survival. Neopolyploid cells from diverse species exhibit a significant increase in mitotic errors relative to their diploid progenitors, resulting in chromosome nondisjunction. In the model system Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the rate of chromosome loss in haploid and diploid cells is measured to be one thousand times lower than the rate of loss in isogenic tetraploid cells. Currently it is unknown what constrains the number of chromosomes that can be segregated with high fidelity in an organism. Here we developed a simple mathematical model to study how different rates of chromosome loss in cells with different ploidy can arise from changes in (1) spindle dynamics and (2) a maximum duration of mitotic arrest, after which cells enter anaphase. We apply this model to S. cerevisiae to show that this model can explain the observed rates of chromosome loss in S. cerevisiae cells of different ploidy. Our model describes how small increases in spindle assembly time can result in dramatic differences in the rate of chromosomes loss between cells of increasing ploidy and predicts the maximum duration of mitotic arrest.BN/Liedewij Laan La
Disability, Desire, and the Lyric in Seventeenth-Century France
This thesis asks whether seventeenth-century French lyric poets’ depiction of disability challenges entrenched ideals of beauty, gender, sexuality, and form. It contends that by interrogating the rich and varied imagery of disability found in lyric verse, we deepen our understanding of how French writers and readers of this century interpreted desire and the human body.
The primary corpus comprises unpublished manuscripts and printed sources, grouping lyrics thematically rather than by author. This approach treats the poems as a heterogenous collective, enabling a discussion of lesser-known, unpublished, and anonymous poets. Named poets in this corpus include Paul Scarron, Denis Sanguin de Saint-Pavin, Anne de Rohan-Soubise, Charles Vion d’Alibray, François Maynard, and Théophile de Viau. Some poets write about their personal experiences of disability, while others portray disabled protagonists or draw upon imagery of disability in their verse. This thesis puts their lyrics into dialogue with several theoretical approaches to disability through a Critical Disability Studies framework. The chapters deal with crip theory, metaphor theory, the grotesque and carnivalesque, spatial theory, queer theory, transhumanism, and posthumanism. The poets’ negotiation of bodily regimes holds much in common with their concurrent negotiation of the formal constraints of lyric verse, allowing this thesis to ask why poetry – and the seventeenth-century lyric in particular – is so replete with imagery of disability.
Due to its examination of the intersections between disability, gender, and sexuality, this thesis will be of interest to scholars of gender and sexuality as well as those studying disability and early modern French literature. Seventeenth-century authors working under a different set of bodily regimes were more likely to imagine disability in ways unfamiliar to twenty-first-century readers, so this research also questions current assumptions about what disability is and is not, while nuancing existing theoretical frameworks used to read disability in literature
Glutathione peroxidase 4 functional variant rs713041 modulates the risk for cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy in individuals with type 1 diabetes
Cardiac autonomic neuropathy is a neglected diabetic chronic complication for which genetic predictors are rarely reported. Oxidative stress is implicated in the pathogenesis of microvascular complications, and glutathione peroxidase 4 is involved in the detoxification of peroxides and of reactive oxygen species. Thus, the association of a functional variant in the gene encoding glutathione peroxidase 4 (rs713041) with this diabetic complication was investigated in 341 individuals with type 1 diabetes evaluated for cardiac autonomic neuropathy status (61.7% women, 34 [27–42] years old; diabetes duration: 21 [15–27] years; HbA1c: 8.3% [7.4–9.4]; as median [interquartile interval]). Cardiac autonomic neuropathy was present in 29% of the participants. There was an inverse association of the minor T allele of rs713041 with cardiac autonomic neuropathy (odds ratio=0.39; 95% confidence interval=0.17–0.90; p=0.0271) after adjustment for potential confounders. The functional glutathione peroxidase 4 variant rs713041 modulated the risk for cardiac autonomic neuropathy in the studied population with type 1 diabetes163297299CONSELHO NACIONAL DE DESENVOLVIMENTO CIENTÍFICO E TECNOLÓGICO - CNPQCOORDENAÇÃO DE APERFEIÇOAMENTO DE PESSOAL DE NÍVEL SUPERIOR - CAPESFUNDAÇÃO DE AMPARO À PESQUISA DO ESTADO DE SÃO PAULO - FAPESPNão temNão tem12/25490-8; 09/09276-3The author(s) disclosed receipt of the following financial support for the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article: This work was supported by grants from Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP) to D.P.S.-B.

The management of irregular migration in Thailand: Thainess, identity and citizenship
This PhD analyses and investigates, from a historical perspective, the way in which Thailand has dealt with different groups of migrant populations, and how this
reflects the current dichotomy between legal and illegal migrants in contemporary Thai policies regarding irregular migration management. It is argued that these policies reflect notions of `Thainess, ' citizenship, race and ethnicity, the question of identities and issues related to inclusion/exclusion of the migration populations
within the structure of Thai society. This thesis also examines how Thailand's policies in irregular migration management reflect the economic and political interests of the government and employers.
This thesis also focuses on the recent Greater Mekong subregional economic cooperation and integration policies, by investigating how these policies will resolve
or intensify the problems concerning the management of migrant workers, as well as other problems relating to human rights violations, and various forms of
discrimination towards the migrant population in Thailand.
The concept and construction of `Thainess' is critically analysed with the purpose of throwing light on the changes in migration management policies, and the related
regulations and practices. This analysis enables us to examine and capture how the dynamism and fluidity of `Thainess' varies through time, locality and economic
status. It also explores how notions of Thai identity influence the ways in which policies on immigration and citizenship are constructed
Two-particle correlations in azimuthal angle and pseudorapidity in inelastic p + p interactions at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron
Results on two-particle Δ ηΔ ϕ correlations in inelastic p + p interactions at 20, 31, 40, 80, and 158 GeV/c are presented. The measurements were performed using the large acceptance NA61/SHINE hadron spectrometer at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron. The data show structures which can be attributed mainly to effects of resonance decays, momentum conservation, and quantum statistics. The results are compared with the Epos and UrQMD models. © 2017, The Author(s)
