The review of the genus Serboiulus Strasser, 1962 (Diplopoda: Julida: Julidae), with description of a new species from Serbia
No full textThe Balkan millipede genus Serboiulus Strasser, 1962, is reviewed, and a new species, S. kresnik n. sp, isde-scribed. The new species differs from all other congeners in a number of gonopod details. The distribution of the species of Serboiulus is mapped and discussed. A new key is provided for all four currently known serboiulid species.M230.79173974465
The IEEE IES Technical Committee Cluster of Energy
No full textThe IEEE Industrial Electronics Society (IES) Technical Committee (TC) Cluster of Energy was established at the 44th Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society, 21-23 October 2018, in Washington, D.C. The worldwide challenges of energy shortage and global warming urgently require innovations in the energy field [1]. Applicationoriented multidisciplinary approaches are the key to addressing challenges and developing cutting-edge solutions. The IES is positioning itself as a leader in the energy field thanks to its wide coverage of expertise and the multidisciplinary nature of the Society
Bis(1,1,2,2-tetramethyldiphosphane-1,2-dithione-&#954;2S,S&#8242;)gold(I) trifluoromethanesulfonate
No full textIn the title compound, [Au(C4H12P2S2)2](CF3SO3), the gold(I) atom is tightly bonded to two S atoms belonging to different ligand molecules and forms two weaker contacts to the remaining S atoms. The coordination geometry around gold is intermediate between linear-dicoordinate and tetrahedral with an S&#8212;Au&#8212;S angle of 161.49&#8197;(3)&#176;
The mostly cavernicolous millipede genus <i>Stygiiulus</i> Verhoeff, 1929, stat. nov.: taxonomy, distribution and phylogenetic relationships (Diplopoda, Julida, Julidae)
No full textThe blind and mostly endogean julid genus Stygiiulus Verhoeff, 1929 stat. nov. is reviewed to include ten species: S. ausugi (Manfredi, 1953) comb. nov., S. fimbriatus (Strasser, 1971) comb. et stat. nov., S. gentianae (Strasser, 1971) comb. et stat. nov., S. illyricus (Verhoeff, 1929) comb. nov., S. insularis (Strasser, 1938) comb. nov., S. maximus (Verhoeff, 1929) comb. nov., S. montellensis (Verhoeff, 1930) comb. nov., S. rotundatus (Strasser, 1962) comb. et stat. nov., S. seewaldi (Strasser, 1967) comb. nov., and S. tobias (Berlese, 1886) comb. nov. The distinctiveness of the genus from Typhloiulus is proven by both morphological and molecular data. The monotypic genus Alpityphlus Strasser, 1967 is here treated as a junior subjective synonym of Stygiiulus syn. nov. Stygiiulus fimbriatus comb. et stat. nov. and S. gentianae comb. et stat. nov., originally described as subspecies of S. ausugi comb. nov., are here erected to full species, while the subspecies S. illyricus stygis (Verhoeff, 1933) comb. et syn. nov. is considered to be a junior subjective synonym of the typical S. illyricus comb. nov. Lectotypes are formally designated for S. gentianae comb. et stat. nov. and S. rotundatus comb. et stat. nov., to stabilize the nomenclature of the two species under Article 74.1 of the ICZN. The phylogeny of the genus, its distribution patterns, and the modified mouthparts in some of its species are discussed.</p
Symptom assessment in palliative care: a need for international collaboration
No full textThis article describes the research strategy for the development of a computerized assessment tool as part of a European Union (EU)-funded project, the European Palliative Care Research Collaborative (EPCRC). The EPCRC is funded through the Sixth Framework Program of the EU with major objectives to develop a computer-based assessment and classification tool for pain, depression, and cachexia. A systematic approach will be applied for the tool development with emphasis on multicultural and multilanguage challenges across Europe. The EPCRC is based on a long lasting collaboration within the European Association for Palliative Care Research Network. The ongoing change in society towards greatly increased use of communication as well as information transfer via digital systems will rapidly change the health care system. Therefore, patient-centered outcome assessment tools applicable for both clinic and research should be developed. Report of symptoms via digital media provides a start for face-to-face communication, treatment decisions, and assessment of treatment effects. The increased use of electronic media for exchange of information may facilitate the development and use of electronic assessment tools and decision-making systems in oncology. In the future, patients may find that a combination of a face-to-face interview plus a transfer of information of subjective symptoms by electronic means will optimize treatment
