Associated bone groups; beyond the Iron Age
No full textAs zooarchaeologists move away from the purely economic towards ‘social zooarchaeological’ interpretations, the consideration of articulated/associated faunal remains has become more common-place. This paper presents results from a research project which investigated the nature of these associated bone groups (ABGs). The majority of current work on these deposits has utilised Iron Age material, with ABGs becoming synonymous with certain Iron Age sites, particularly Danebury. This paper moves beyond the Iron Age and discusses their presence on sites from the Neolithic to the Medieval period. It utilises the results of a survey of published sources from southern England and Yorkshire and shows that ABGs are commonly recovered from other periods. Their composition is shown to differ between time periods and regions. Finally in light of the data presented it questions how we should view these deposits
The physiological viability of bathymetric range shifts in marine ectotherms
No full textOrganisms occupying an environment where change is occurring must move, acclimatise, or adapt in order to prevent extinction. Despite recent evidence, the potential for species to change their distribution range across depths is regularly overlooked as an alternative to well documented latitudinal shifts. The aim of this thesis was to investigate the physiological viability of bathymetric range shifts by assessing the impacts of elevated hydrostatic pressure (HP) and changing temperature in two marine ectotherms: the shallow-water caridean shrimp Palaemonetes varians; and the continental slope-depth anomuran crab Lithodes maja. Gene biomarkers were characterised in both species and their transcriptional regulation was assessed by qPCR. Acute and long-term exposures revealed that elevated HP produced significant perturbations at the transcriptional level in P. varians, and were corroborated by measurements of behaviour and respiratory response. HP-associated pathologies were exacerbated by decreasing temperature, and ameliorated by increasing temperature. Results gave a novel insight into the hierarchy and kinetics of HP-induced stress responses, and suggested that the combination of HP and temperature, in part, determines the physiological limitations to bathymetric migration in shallow-water ectotherms.To further test the role of HP and temperature in setting depth distribution limits, gene biomarkers were characterised in a continental slope-depth crab Lithodes maja. Transcriptional regulation and respiration rate was quantified throughout larval ontogeny, and in mature adults. Early life stages showed HP tolerance beyond that of the species natural distribution limits. The observed HP tolerance window reduced through ontogeny. Reductions in HP tolerance with life stage may be analogous to established thermal tolerance reductions with ontogeny. Further, sustained HP exposures suggest that bathymetric range limits in L. maja are constrained by increased metabolic costs, nervous system sensitivities, and macromolecular damage under elevated HP.HP and temperature, and particularly the combination of the two, play an important role in setting the depth distribution limits of marine ectotherms. For temperate shallow-water adapted marine ectotherms, water temperatures towards the upper limit of their thermal scope may facilitate bathymetric range shifts, whilst colder waters further exacerbate the negative physiological effects of elevated HP. Bathymetric range shifts may, under certain scenarios, offer an important, yet underestimated, alternative to latitudinal shifts in light of contemporary climate change. Further, the combination of HP and temperature may have played an important role in the colonisation of the deep sea from shallow waters by marine ectotherms

Treatment burden and the role of the GP
No full textTreatment burden is the ‘work of being a patient’. It comprises the time, effort and financial implications of following a treatment regimen in chronic disease, and the consequent impact on patients. Treatment burden may affect adherence, quality-of-life and health outcomes. Patients vary in their capacity to manage treatment demands. The concept of treatment burden is now recognised in national guidance on multimorbidity. GPs have an opportunity to enhance patient-centred care through recognition and optimisation of treatment burden
