    Orchestina valquiria Izquierdo, new species Figures 118, 131D–F, 134D, 137E, 140A, C, 142B, map 26 TYPE: Male holotype from Brazil: Amazonas: Presidente Figueiredo: Usina Hidrelétrica de Balbina, -1.81666°, -59.41666°, July 14, 2006, R. Saturnino, deposited in MPEG 010664, PBI_ OON 40480. ETYMOLOGY: A noun in apposition; because, while analyzing this species, the first author was listening to Die Walküre (“The Valkyrie”), an opera by Richard Wagner, we decided to give its name to this species. DIAGNOSIS: Males can be distinguished by the presence of a short embolus flanked by a short apophysis and a highly coiled sperm duct (figs. 131D–F, 140A, C). Females can be distinguished by the absence of anterior apodemes on the anterior receptaculum and by the lateral projections, emerging near median half of the anterior receptaculum (figs. 134D, 137E, 142B). MALE (PBI_ OON 40480): Total length 1.40. Habitus as in figure 118A–C. CEPHALOTHO- RAX: Carapace orange. Labium rectangular. LEGS: Yellow. GENITALIA: Palp proximal segments yellow, cymbium yellow; embolus short; sperm duct strongly coiled, with many loops (figs.131D–F, 140A, C). FEMALE (PBI_ OON 40491): Total length 1.55. Habitus as in figure 118D–F. CEPHALOTHO- RAX: Carapace pale orange. Sternum as long as wide, yellow. Chelicerae, endites, labium yellow. GENITALIA: External pockets absent, internal pockets well developed; anterior receptaculum without anterior apodemes, nearly triangular, with widened lateral projections at base; posterior receptaculum present, posterior apodeme formed by entire plate (figs. 134D, 137E, 142B).

    Uruguaysuchus terrai Rusconi 1933

    STATUS OF URUGUAYSUCHUS TERRAI As already stated, Rusconi (1933) recognized a second species of Uruguaysuchus, U. terrai, based mainly on differences in the tooth count in the upper tooth row. Both Soto (2005) and Andrade & Bertini (2005) independently questioned the taxonomic validity of maintaining the distinction of U. terrai from U. aznarezi. U. terrai apparently possesses four maxillary teeth more than U. aznarezi: two incisiviforms, one caniniform, and ten post-caniniforms versus one incisiviform, one caniniform and seven post-caniniforms, respectively (Fig. 16). However, as already stated, it must be noted that the lack of preparation of the holotype of U. aznarezi does not allow an assessment of the total number of post-caniniform teeth (i.e. whether there are teeth beyond the ninth maxillary position). Moreover, the maxilla of Rusconi’s specimen no. 4 (Fig. 16), a juvenile U. aznarezi according to this author, exhibits two incisiforms and one caniniform (being the third maxillary tooth), the same condition as in U. terrai. Curiously, Rusconi (1933) did not explicitly mention this relevant point. Interestingly, his fig. 20 illustrates seven post-caniniform alveoli although only six are implied in the text. Furthermore, several measurements of U. terrai are consistently smaller than those of the only adult individual of U. aznarezi (holotype), approaching those of juveniles of U. aznarezi. As proposed by Soto (2005), minor differences in the dental formulae can be explained by intraspecific variation in tooth count, which is rather common among crocodyliforms, either fossil or extant (C. Brochu, com. pers., 2008). In particular, if it is true that U. terrai, U. aznarezi no. 4 and FC-DPV 2320 represent juvenile individuals, it may be necessary to invoke ontogenetic loss of tooth positions to explain the fact that the adult individual of U. aznarezi (holotype) has only one incisiviform maxillary tooth instead of two. Such a phenomenon has already been recorded in several crocodylian species (e.g. Crocodylus cataphractus, C. porosus, C. siamensis, and Tomistoma schlegelii; Mook, 1921; Wermuth, 1953; Iordansky, 1973) as well as in the tyrannosaurid theropods Tyrannosaurus rex and Albertosaurus libratus (Carr, 1999). On the other hand, the hypothesis that U. aznarezi could bear more post-caniniform teeth than recognized by Rusconi (1933) received support when FC-DPV 2320 was prepared. Indeed, the specimen described herein (Fig. 16) showed the presence of at least 12 maxillary teeth (two incisiviforms, one caniniform, and at least nine post-caniniforms), reducing the apparent gap between the tooth count of U. aznarezi and U. terrai. In conclusion, given that no real differences in the maxillary dentition exist, we regard U. terrai as a juvenile individual of U. aznarezi. Thus, as proposed by Soto (2005) and Andrade & Bertini (2005), U. terrai must be considered a junior synonym of the latter taxon.Published as part of Soto, Matías, Pol, Diego & Perea, Daniel, 2011, A new specimen of Uruguaysuchus aznarezi (Crocodyliformes: Notosuchia) from the middle Cretaceous of Uruguay and its phylogenetic relationships, pp. 644-645 in Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 163 (5) on pages 644-645, DOI: 10.1111/j.1096-3642.2011.00717.x, http://zenodo.org/record/544168

    On the Complexities of the Design of Water Distribution Networks

    No full text
    Water supply is one of the most recognizable and important public services contributing to quality of life. Water distribution networks WDNs are extremely complex assets. A number of complex tasks, such as design, planning, operation, maintenance, and management, are inherently associated with such networks. In this paper, we focus on the design of a WDN, which is a wide and open problem in hydraulic engineering. This problem is a large-scale combinatorial, nonlinear, nonconvex, multiobjective optimization problem, involving various types of decision variables and many complex implicit constraints. To handle this problem, we provide a synergetic association between swarm intelligence and multiagent systems where human interaction is also enabled. This results in a powerful collaborative system for finding solutions to such a complex hydraulic engineering problem. All the ingredients have been integrated into a software tool that has also been shown to efficiently solve problems from other engineering fields.This work has been developed with the support of the project IDAWAS, DPI2009-11591, of the Direccion General de Investigacion of the Ministerio de Educacion y Ciencia, and ACOMP/2010/146 of the Conselleria d'Educacio of the Generalitat Valenciana.

    What ideas and social effects did prison projects have for Buenos Aires between 1869 and 1927? In a context of significant cultural, urban, and demographic changes, the deprivation of liberty began to be conceived by some sectors of the leadership as a means of control, normalization, and social regeneration. This led to the development of various projects that, whether built or not, represented ideal spatial and territorial proposals—devices for invisibilization and moral correction that managed to condense an image of that culture, an idea of a city aspiring to be modern. Through the examination of various materials, the author reveals the different imaginaries that converge in these prison projects; the construction of this particular object of study allows for an original reading of the city and its sites.Published¿Qué ideas y qué efectos sociales tenían los proyectos carcelarios para Buenos Aires entre 1969 y 1927?

    No full text
    Introduction: Relationship between ghost-authors and medical writers has been debated, even arriving to citizens. Accusation that through ghost-authors, market messages are introduced in medical journals has been suggested. Development: This paper carried out an analysis of ghost-authors and their application to medical writers and discusses the intellectual authorship of the scientific articles, as well as the relationship with research groups and pharmaceutical industry, as well as the position of journal. Conclusions: The role of medical workers is advisable because improves communication of articles. Using authorship criteria, medical writers cannot be considered as ghostauthors. Misconducts for medical writers should be pursued but also those from editors and authors. Responsibility of articles belongs to authors who are responsible of false conclusions obtained from data research and to the editor in the case of the paper was published. Resumen: Introducción: La relación entre la autoría fantasma y los redactores profesionales de artículos médicos ha estado en el debate, llegando incluso al ciudadano. La acusación que, a través de la autoria-fantasma, se introducen mensajes de mercado también ha sido publicada por algunas revistas científicas. Desarrollo: Se realiza un análisis del concepto de autoría-fantasma y su aplicación a los redactores profesionales y se discute la responsabilidad intelectual de los artículos científicos, así como la relación en grupos de investigación e industria farmacéutica, así como la posición de la revista. Conclusiones: La labor de los redactores profesionales es recomendable para mejor la comunicación del artículo. Utilizando los criterios de autoría, los redactores profesionales no pueden ser considerados como autores-fantasma. Deben perseguirse las malas conductas no solo de redactores profesionales sino también de editores y autores. La responsabilidad de los artículos pertenece a los autores, que son quienes la incumple si existen aseveraciones que no corresponden a los datos de los artículos, así como al editor que aparezcan publicados. Keywords: Medical journals, Editors, Authors, Ghost-author, Ghost-writers, Medical writers, Pharmaceutical industry, Palabras clave: Publicaciones médicas, Editores, Autoría, Autoría-fantasma, Redacción fantasma, Redactores profesionales, Industria farmacéutic

    Voluntary Running Triggers VGF-Mediated Oligodendrogenesis to Prolong the Lifespan of Snf2h-Null Ataxic Mice

    SummaryExercise has been argued to enhance cognitive function and slow progressive neurodegenerative disease. Although exercise promotes neurogenesis, oligodendrogenesis and adaptive myelination are also significant contributors to brain repair and brain health. Nonetheless, the molecular details underlying these effects remain poorly understood. Conditional ablation of the Snf2h gene impairs cerebellar development producing mice with poor motor function, progressive ataxia, and death between postnatal days 25–45. Here, we show that voluntary running induced an endogenous brain repair mechanism that resulted in a striking increase in hindbrain myelination and the long-term survival of Snf2h cKO mice. Further experiments identified the VGF growth factor as a major driver underlying this effect. VGF neuropeptides promote oligodendrogenesis in vitro, whereas Snf2h cKO mice treated with full-length VGF-encoding adenoviruses removed the requirement of exercise for survival. Together, these results suggest that VGF delivery could represent a therapeutic strategy for cerebellar ataxia and other pathologies of the CNS
