British Nutrition Foundation Annual Lecture 2017 - Diet, obesity and cardiovascular risk
No full textThis paper provides a summary of the British Nutrition Foundation Annual Lecture by Professor Susan Jebb held at the Royal College of Physicians, London, on 14 November 2017. Professor Jebb, recipient of the 2016 British Nutrition Foundation Prize for outstanding achievement in the area of nutrition, spoke of her research on diet, obesity and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk and her work to translate science into action to help improve the nation's diet. This paper briefly summarises her research, including analyses of the links between dietary patterns and cardiometabolic risk in prospective cohorts, mechanistic studies such as the effect of portion size on energy intake, a series of randomised controlled trials to test the impact of diet composition on markers of CVD risk, and clinical trials of interventions to treat obesity in primary healthcare settings. Professor Jebb emphasised the need to translate the considerable scientific knowledge about the prevention of CVD through modification of risk factors such as obesity, into systems embedded in routine practice and population‐level interventions, in order to improve public health and tackle health inequalities
Measurement of total energy expenditure in grossly obese women: comparison of the bicarbonate-urea method with whole-body calorimetry and free-living doubly labelled water
No full textOBJECTIVE: To establish validity of the bicarbonate-urea (BU) method against direct measurements of gaseous exchange (GE) in a whole-body indirect calorimeter and to compare BU and doubly labelled water (DLW) measurements in free-living conditions in the same group of grossly obese women.DESIGN: Energy expenditure (EE) was estimated by the BU method over 24 h concurrently with whole-body indirect calorimetry and subsequently over 5 consecutive days at home concurrently with 14 day DLW. Six women, body mass index (BMI) 52.4±10.4 kg/m2 (s.d.), were studied.RESULTS: Total energy expenditure (TEE) measurements by BU and GE within the metabolic chamber were not significantly different (BU=11.79±1.89 MJ/day and GE=11.64±1.86 MJ/day; mean difference, 0.25±0.49 MJ/day, P>0.05). Free-living TEE derived from BU and DLW was also similar (13.28±1.86 and 13.86±2.25 MJ/day, respectively; mean difference 0.17±1.33 MJ/day, P<0.05). The measured physical activity level (PAL) in these very obese subjects was within the range reported in other free-living studies in less obese individuals (1.62±0.14 using DLW and 1.56±0.20 using BU). The BU method was well tolerated by the subjects.CONCLUSIONS: This study in grossly obese subjects, heavier than those participating in previous studies involving tracer methods, demonstrates validity of the BU against GE under controlled metabolic conditions, and the equivalence between BU and DLW under free-living conditions. The results suggest that both tracer methods are valid in this population group. This study also demonstrates the practicalities of using the BU method over 5 days, the longest application of the method so far
Nepenthes extincta Jebb & Cheek 2013, sp. nov.
No full textNepenthes extincta Jebb & Cheek sp. nov. urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:77134488-1 Fig. 3 Diagnosis Differs from N. mindanaoensis Sh.Kurata in the pitchers lacking fringed wings (versus with fringed wings), the lid base truncate (not cordate), the indumentum of the midrib of dense minute grey-white stellate hairs, (not of sparse black bristle-like hairs). Etymology Nepenthes extincta sp. nov. is named to signify that this species may already be extinct globally. Type PHILIPPINES. Mindanao Island “Red Hills (= 400 m alt.), SE of Claver, near the northeastern coast of the Mindanao Island. Boundary of the Surigao del Sur and Surigao del Norte ” 8 Aug. 1978, Fumihiro Konta 12365 (holotype BISH!). Description Terrestrial shrub, probably about 1 m tall.

Male and female inflorescences and infructescence unknown. Distribution & habitat Philippines, Mindanao, Surigao del Sur. Open scrub habitats on ultramafic substrate with N. merrilliana Macfarl. (Macfarlane 1911) and N. graciliflora Elmer (Elmer 1912). Elevation: ca. 400 m. Conservation Nepenthes exincta sp. nov. is here assessed as Critically Endangered under Criterion D of IUCN (2012) since only a single individual has ever been recorded (the type specimen collected in 1978). The locality data given corresponds with the large area of ultramafic known as ‘Red Mountain’ SE of Claver in NE Mindanao. In fact, Red Mountain is a series of low red hills. The NE Mindanao, probably due to its large areas of ultramafic substrate, supports several narrowly endemic and often spectacular Nepenthes species, several of which are known from single locations. For this reason, it has been intensively visited in recent decades by devotees of the genus. Despite this, no additional collections or observations of this taxon have come to light in the last 25 years and it is possible that it is restricted to the Red Mountain, and is now extinct, since this happens to be the largest nickel mining site in the world’s second largest nickel producing country (Gallares 2013). The Foundation for the Philippine Environment (Pacudan 2013) recently reported on the environmental damage due to extensive and massive nickel mining “as far as your eyes can see.”, “The scene of endless open pit mining at the red mountain made our heart bleed.” (Pacudan 2013). The biggest mining companies operating at the Red Mountain are Taganito Mining Corporation, Platinum Group Metals Corporation (PGMC), Taganito HPAL Nickel Corporation, Adnama Mining Resources Inc. (AMRI) and Zhen Shou Mining (Almeda 2012). It is much to be hoped that this species is refound, and not proved to be extinct, and if found, that it can be protected and monitored. Remarks Nepenthes extincta sp. nov. is most likely to be confused with N. mindanaoensis and they may share a common origin. Both species occur on open ultramafic substrates in NE Mindanao, both have robust, ovoid-cylindric pitchers arising from thickly leathery blades in which the longitudinal nerves arise from the base of the blade. In both species the petiole has involute wings, so appear cylindric, and the blade is not decurrent to the petiole – unusual features in the N. alata group. The two can be distinguished using the characters in Table 3. The two species are not sympatric so far as is known. Fumihiro Konta, collector of the only known material of this species, has not been traced by us. An internet search shows that he has published on the plants of S China and Thailand, as well as Japan, covering specialisms such as Asclepiadaceae, Ferns and Vegetation mapping. “A list of the Ferns and Flowering Plants of Mt Fuji, 1984” is his most referenced work. Since “Environmental Impact Studies” are listed among his interests, it may have been in that context that he collected the type specimen recorded here.Published as part of Cheek, Martin & Jebb, Matthew, 2013, Recircumscription of the Nepenthes alata group (Caryophyllales: Nepenthaceae), in the Philippines, with four new species, pp. 1-23 in European Journal of Taxonomy 69 on pages 14-16, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2013.69, http://zenodo.org/record/382769
Nepenthes leyte Jebb & Cheek 2013, sp. nov.
No full textNepenthes leyte Jebb & Cheek, sp. nov. urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:77134489-1 Fig. 4 Diagnosis Differs from N. alata B lanco in having, except in the hairy axils, glabrous stems, (not densely white hairy); upper pitchers lacking fringed wings (versus with fringed wings); nectar glands on lower surface of lid dimorphic, concentrated around margin and appendage (not monomorphic, uniformly dense and distributed). Etymology The specific epithet “leyte” is here used as a noun in apposition, to commemorate the island of that name, to which the species appears unique. Type PHILIPPINES. Eastern Visayas, Leyte, Mt Lobi, near Dagami, 7 Nov. 1999, Argent, Mendum, Fuentes, R., Belonias, B. S. 99214 (holotype K!; isotypes E!, PNH). Description Terrestrial climber, height 2 m (probably), drying brown. Climbing stems subterete, 4–6 mm diam., with a slight ridge below the leaf bases; the axil with a shallow groove containing a spike-like bud 1–2 mm long, inserted 5–6 mm above the axil; internodes 3–7 cm long; surface with scattered redblack, depressed-globose, sessile raised glands 0.05–0.08 mm diam.; hairs absent, except in the axillary grooves which have white, moderately dense, basally branched hairs with arms erect, ca. 1 mm long. Rosette stems and leaves unknown. Leaves of climbing stems spirally inserted, thinly leathery; blade narrowly oblong-elliptic, 13.5–16 × 2.5–3.8 cm; apex acute, not peltate; base cuneate, abruptly decurrent to the petiole; longitudinal nerves 1 pair, moderately close to the margin, inconspicuous; pennate nerves numerous, conspicuously raised on both surfaces, more or less patent, irregular; both surfaces drying brown, subglossy above, matt below; midrib on both surfaces 5–10% covered with fine white-translucent simple or 3–5-armed stellate hairs, on the upper surface 0.2–0.3 mm diam., on the lower surface 0.1–0.2 mm diam., the leaf-blade otherwise glabrous, apart from sessile red-black glands as the stem, 0.05–0.1 mm diam., 2–6 per mm 2.

Lower and intermediate pitchers unknown. Upper pitcher (tendril coiled) 12–15 × 4.5–5 cm; ovoid-ellipsoid in the lower half, upper half cylindrical, 3–3.5 cm diam., not constricted at any point; outer surface 10–30% covered in minute red stellate hairs, hairs ca. 0.1 mm diam., both sessile and shortly stalked, 4–6-armed, arms suberect or patent, density 3–5 per mm 2, mixed with sessile red-black glands 0.05 mm diam. as the leaf-blade and stem, hairs denser on lid, and towards the peristome where they are mixed with sparse erect bushy-bristle hairs 0.2–0.3 mm long; “almost uniformly green with a few purple spots mainly on the ventricose base” (Argent et al. 99214); fringed wings are absent, reduced to inconspicuous ridges; mouth ovate, 4–4.5 × 3–3.5 cm, oblique, slightly concave, “glaucous green inside with just a few red spots”; peristome (1–)2–3(–5) mm wide, narrowly subcylindrical, rounded at the front, becoming slightly flattened and widest at the sides, towards the lid, ca. 4 ridges per mm, ridges 0.075–0.15 mm high, inner edge inconspicuous, holes and teeth not visible (unless dissected: Fig. 4P); outer edge not lobed; column weakly developed, ca. 7 × 3 mm. Lid ovate 3.2 × 2.9(–3.2) cm; apex shallowly retuse, the sinus 3–7 mm wide; base cordate, the sinus 4 mm deep, 8–15 mm wide; green; margin undulate; lower surface with convex basal appendage, 0.4–0.7 × 1–2 mm, arising from near the midpoint of the 5–6 × 0.5 mm long basal midline ridge; nectar glands slightly dimorphic, each with a different distribution: (type 1) moderately dense on the basal ridge and appendage (Fig. 4L) and in a ca. 2 mm band each side (but not extending along midline), glands with raised borders, shortly elliptic, 0.1– 0.2(–0.3) mm long; (type 2) slightly larger, (0.1–) 0.2–0.3 mm long, moderately dense, in bands 2–4 mm wide along the lid margins, 25–40 glands on each side, one sheet (atypical?) with a few additional large elliptic glands, 0.7 × 0.4 mm, bordered, very sparsely scattered between the margins; sessile red-black glands, as stem, leaf and outer pitcher surface, 0.005–0.01 mm diam., scattered over surface ca. 3 per mm 2; marginal part of lower surface with a few minute stellate hairs. Spur inserted 2 mm below junction of lid and pitcher on ridge; simple, stout at base tapering to a long, acute apex; 7–9.5 × 0.5–0.7 mm; completely covered in long, grey appressed hairs, hairs (0.5–)0.7–1(–1.2) mm long. Upper surface of lid with two prominent nerves, nerves densely (80–90% cover) white hairy, hairs of two types: (1) basally 1–2-branched hairs 0.3–0.4 mm long, (2) minute 3–5-armed stellate hairs 0.1 mm diam.; remainder of lid surface with type (2) hairs, but indumentum 30–40% cover, and with sparse perithecoid nectar glands 0.25 mm long. Inflorescence and infructescence unknown. Distribution & habitat Philippines, Visayas, Leyte; volcanic geology; “climbing on fallen tree in submontane mossy forest”, elevation 900 m (Argent et al. 99214). Conservation Nepenthes leyte sp. nov. is known currently from a single individual in an unprotected area, in a country, including specifically the island of Leyte, where most of the original forest habitat has been cleared for timber and agricultural land and where forest degradation and clearance are ongoing (Myers et al. 2000; GoogleEarth viewed 2 Oct. 2013). Accordingly, it is here assessed as Critically Endangered under Criterion D of IUCN (2012). It is to be hoped that further exploration will reveal additional localities for the species, and that protection can be arranged before it becomes extinct. Currently no protected areas are believed to be present on Leyte apart from the 2193 ha Lake Danao National or Natural Park which is about 14 km to the W of the type location. However this seems to be mainly a recreational area, and within the reserve, illegal settlement, slash and burn agriculture and illegal logging are reported to be problems (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Danao_(Leyte)#Threats, viewed 12 Oct. 2013). Viewing the area immediately around Lake Danao on GoogleEarth (2007 imagery, viewed 12 Oct 2013) confirms that large areas have been and were in 2007 in the process of being cleared and inhabited, and that these activities extend towards the E and the only known location for N. leyte sp. nov. Some original forest still survives along the central high ridge of Leyte, where terrain appears rugged, including the location indicated as the type location of the species, however the resolution of the imagery here is not sufficiently high to gauge how intact the habitat is. The eastern side of Leyte has higher rainfall and the forest has extensively been replaced by intensive industrial oil palm plantations which extended in 2003 to within 4 km of the type location (GoogleEarth imagery dating from 2003, viewed 2 Oct. 2013). Collection of Nepenthes leyte sp. nov. from the wild to supply the horticultural trade is considered a low risk for this species since its pitchers are not as spectacular or as bizarre as those of other members of the genus in the Philippines. Remarks Argent et al. 99214, here described as Nepenthes leyte sp. nov., while superficially similar to N. graciliflora, the only other species of the genus known on Leyte (Wenzel 680, GH!; Barbon et al. in PPI 8735, BRIT!; ibid. 8561, BRIT!), cannot be confused with it. This is due to the stellate hairs present on the outer pitcher surface of Nepenthes leyte sp. nov. (versus absent in N. graciliflora), and the dimorphic nectar lid glands concentrated around the margin and appendage (not monomorphic, uniformly dense and distributed). It also has petioles that appear cylindrical since the wings are involute (not with patent wings). Apart from N. graciliflora itself, only one other member of the N. alata group is, so far, known from the Visayas: N. negros (Negros and Biliran islands). However, N. negros has densely hairy stems (versus glabrous), upper pitcher with fringed wings (not absent) and the inner peristome edge has conspicuous teeth and holes (versus conspicuous teeth absent). Nepenthes leyte sp. nov. can be distinguished from other species of the Nepenthes alata group using the key above.Published as part of Cheek, Martin & Jebb, Matthew, 2013, Recircumscription of the Nepenthes alata group (Caryophyllales: Nepenthaceae), in the Philippines, with four new species, pp. 1-23 in European Journal of Taxonomy 69 on pages 17-20, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2013.69, http://zenodo.org/record/382769
The high Church tradition in Ireland 1800-1870 with particular reference to John Jebb and Alexander Knox
No full textThis is a critical enquiry into the widely held belief that the doctrines of pre-Tractarian High Church Anglicanism have exercised a specially tenacious hold on the Church of Ireland. Chapter 1 surveys the tradition as developed in the 17th and 18th centuries, but also examines the peculiarity of a Church established by law in a land the majority of whose people adhered to other Christian bodies. Chapter 2 outlines the careers of Knox as the forerunner and Jebb as the principal embodiment of 'Old High Church' feeling, pointing to their relations with Methodism and Roman Catholicism, and their dependence on the legal status of the Church. Chapter 3 contrasts diverse attempts to confront the problems that arose from decreasing support for that legal status on the part of the British Government, culminating in the Irish Church Temporalities Act of 1833: the trigger of the Oxford Movement. The lineaments of High Church thought at that moment, notably its patristic emphasis, are traced in Chapter 4, and its limitations exposed in an account of a contemporary ecumenical venture. It becomes clear that the Tractarians owed a debt to Irish old High Church thinking, but developed their theology well beyond even Knox and Jebb. Chapter 5 depicts Irish hostility towards Tractarian- ism, exemplified in the career of J.H. Todd, and various endeavours to maintain the High Church tradition such as the foundation of S. Columba's College. At the same time, the cornerstone of traditional Irish High Church thought is removed by the Irish Church Disestabhshment Act of 1869. Chapter 6, in recounting the speed and ferocity with which Low Church Evangelicals, chiefly amongst the laity, captured the commanding heights of the disestablished Church, seeks to throw retrospective light on the inherent weakness of the old High Church tradition. Indeed, as Chapter 7 also aims to show, it was only through imported Anglo-Catholicism that any elements of the earlier tradition were to survive. The conclusion reached in these two final chapters is that the historical situation of the Church of Ireland was never favourable to an indigenous traditionalist High Church movement capable of widespread lay support
