Occurrence of Cranocrinus Wanner in North America
The cladid inadunate genus Cranocrinus Wanner is typically from Upper Permian rocks of the Island of Timor, Indonesia, and has been reported from Lower Permian rocks of the Ural Mountains of Russia. Arendt (1970) has demonstrated that juvenile C. praestans lacks radials (is pseudomonocyclic) while adult specimens have radials (are dicyclic). Both conditions are noted for C. eximius n. sp. from Morrowan (Lower Pennsylvanian) rocks of Oklahoma and are described herein. Possible methods of feeding and respiration are considered in the discussion of Cranocrinus

Driftmetingen Wanner NTR 20 2-rijen dwarsstroomspuit met reflectieschermen en luchtregelingssysteem 2019-2021
Results of spray drift experiments are presented of the Wanner NTR 20 2-row crossflow fan orchard sprayer equipped with reflection screens and air management system in comparison with a reference spray technique for fruit crop spraying in The Netherlands. The Wanner sprayer was equipped with variable air settings (dependent on wind speed and direction), the air speed was limited to the 25% setting (700 rpm fan speed), top covers (above the tree rows) and drift reducing nozzles (Lechler IDK 90-0067 C at 7 bar spray pressure, 75 % drift reduction). The Wanner orchard sprayer uses the reflection screens to spray the crop from 2 sides, so two rows of orchard are treated simultaneously. During the spray drift experiments, performed in 2019 and 2021, the downwind outer 24 m of an apple orchard was sprayed at the full leaf stage (BBCH 75-91) using the fluorescent tracer Acid Yellow 250. Spray drift deposition was collected downwind on a mowed grass area up to 25 m distance from the last tree row. For the Wanner orchard sprayer spray drift reduction at 4.5-5.5 m distance from the last tree row was 98.1% in comparison with the reference spray application
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Cardiovascular disease: Is CABG really better than PCI in dialysis patients?
A new study by Chang et al. reports that coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) may be preferable to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for multivessel coronary revascularization in appropriately selected patients on maintenance dialysis.

Abstract
PURPOSE: To evaluate the role of topical mitomycin C in corneal wound healing (CWH) after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) in highly myopic eyes.
DESIGN: Prospective, double-masked, randomized clinical trial.
PARTICIPANTS: Seventy-two eyes of 36 patients affected by high (>7 diopters) myopia.
METHODS: In each patient, one eye was randomly assigned to PRK with intraoperative topical 0.02% mitomycin C application, and the fellow eye was treated with a placebo. Postoperatively, mitomycin C-treated eyes received artificial tears (3 times daily, tapered in 3 months), whereas the fellow eye was treated with fluorometholone sodium 2% and artificial tears (3 times daily, tapered in 3 months).
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), contrast sensitivity, manifest refraction, and biomicroscopy. Contrast sensitivity was determined using the Pelli-Robson chart. Corneal confocal microscopy documented CWH.
RESULTS: Mean follow-up was 18 months (range, 12-36). No side effects or toxic effects were documented. At 12-month follow-up examination, UCVAs (logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution) were 0.4+/-0.48 and 0.5+/-0.53 (P = .03) in mitomycin C-treated eyes and corticosteroid-treated eyes, respectively. At 1 year, corneal haze developed in 20% of corticosteroid-treated eyes, versus 0% of mitomycin C-treated eyes. At 12, 24, and 36 months, corneal confocal microscopy showed activated keratocytes and extracellular matrix significantly more evident in untreated eyes (Ps = 0.004, 0.024, and 0.046, respectively).
CONCLUSION: Topical intraoperative application of 0.02% mitomycin C can reduce haze formation in highly myopic eyes undergoing PRK.

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
European climate response to tropical volcanic eruptions over the last half millennium
We analyse the winter and summer climatic signal following 15 major tropical volcanic eruptions over the last half millennium based on multi-proxy reconstructions for Europe. During the first and second post-eruption years we find significant continental scale summer cooling and somewhat drier conditions over Central Europe. In the Northern Hemispheric winter the volcanic forcing induces an atmospheric circulation response that significantly follows a positive NAO state connected with a significant overall warm anomaly and wetter conditions over Northern Europe. Our findings compare well with GCM studies as well as observational studies, which mainly cover the substantially shorter instrumental period and thus include a limited set of major eruptions
