Grammatical Tradition

Abstract Throughout the history of the Latin grammatical tradition barbarism is regularly described according to the system of the four categories of change known as quadripertita ratio, whereas the description of solecism is more controversial. In the grammatical chapters of his first book, Quintilian attests to the application of the fourfold system to solecism in his age, but he also knows a second tradition, which ends up becoming the predominant theory in Latin grammar and regards solecism as the fault by substitution (inmutatio). Quintilian attributes this tradition to some anonymous grammarians (quidam) who have not been identified yet. After considering Quintilian’s testimony in light of the Greek sources and especially Apollonius Dyscolus’ Syntax, we have concluded that Quintilian and Apollonius may rely on a common source, probably of Alexandrine descent, which separated solecism from the first three categories of change of the fourfold system (addition, subtraction and inversion of the regular word order).

Introduction. The fractures of the posterior process of talus are relatively rare injuries of the ankle. They most frequently occur via the mechanism of the forced hyper plantar flexion and inversion. Sometimes they are not initially diagnosed, since over 40% of cases of the fractures of the posterior process of talus are not seen in the initial radiography. The objective of this work is the review of the case study of the arthroscopically treated unhealed fracture of the posterior process of talus. Case outline. In our case report we have presented the 30-year-old male, professional soccer player, with a three-month-long history of chronic pain in the region of the left ankle and heel and the fracture of the posterior process of talus. Conclusion. The work shows all the advantages of minimally invasive surgery - arthroscopic excision of the fragment, quick recovery and returning to physical activities.

Abstract Context: Generalizability theory is an appropriate method for determining the reliability of measurements obtained across more than a single facet. In the clinical and research settings, ankle-complex laxity assessment may be performed using different examiners and multiple trials. Objective: To determine the reliability of ankle-complex laxity measurements across different examiners and multiple trials using generalizability theory. Design: Correlational study. Setting: Laboratory. Patients or Other Participants: Forty male university students without a history of ankle injury. Main Outcome Measure(s): Measures of right ankle-complex anteroposterior and inversion-eversion laxity were obtained by 2 examiners. Each examiner performed 2 anteroposterior trials, followed by 2 inversion-eversion trials for each ankle at 0° of ankle flexion. Using generalizability theory, we performed G study and D study analyses. Results: More measurement error was found for facets associated with examiner than with trial for both anteroposterior and inversion-eversion laxity. Inversion-eversion measurement was more reliable than anteroposterior laxity measurement. Although 1 examiner and 1 trial had acceptable reliability (G coefficient ≥ .848), increasing the number of examiners increased reliability to a greater extent than did increasing the number of trials. Conclusions: Within the range of examiner and trial facets studied, any combination of examiners or trials (or both) above 1 can change ankle laxity measurement reliability from acceptable (1 examiner, 1 trial) to highly reliable (3 examiners, 3 trials). Individuals may respond to examiners and their procedural nuances differently; thus, standardized procedures are important.

Context: This is part II of a 2-part series discussing stability characteristics of the ankle complex. In part I, we used a cadaver model to examine the effects of sectioning the lateral ankle ligaments on anterior and inversion motion and stiffness of the ankle complex. In part II, we wanted to build on and apply these findings to the clinical assessment of ankle-complex motion and stiffness in a group of athletes with a history of unilateral ankle sprain. Objective: To examine ankle-complex motion and stiffness in a group of athletes with reported history of lateral ankle sprain. Design: Cross-sectional study. Setting: University research laboratory. Patients or Other Participants: Twenty-five female college athletes (age = 19.4 ± 1.4 years, height = 170.2 ± 7.4 cm, mass = 67.3 ± 10.0 kg) with histories of unilateral ankle sprain. Intervention(s): All ankles underwent loading with an ankle arthrometer. Ankles were tested bilaterally. Main Outcome Measure(s): The dependent variables were anterior displacement, anterior end-range stiffness, inversion rotation, and inversion end-range stiffness. Results: Anterior displacement of the ankle complex did not differ between the uninjured and sprained ankles (P = .37), whereas ankle-complex rotation was greater for the sprained ankles (P = .03). The sprained ankles had less anterior and inversion end-range stiffness than the uninjured ankles (P < .01). Conclusions: Changes in ankle-complex laxity and end-range stiffness were detected in ankles with histories of sprain. These results indicate the presence of altered mechanical characteristics in the soft tissues of the sprained ankles.

Derivation Process

The description of the origins of a piece of data and the transformations by which it arrived in a database is termed the data provenance. The importance of data provenance has already been widely recognized in database community. The two major approaches to representing provenance information use annotations and inversion. While annotation is metadata pre-computed to include the derivation history of a data product, the inversion method finds the source data based on the situation that some derivation process can be inverted. Annotations are flexible to represent diverse provenance metadata but the complete provenance data may outsize data itself. Inversion method is concise by using a single inverse query or function but the provenance needs to be computed on-the-fly. This paper proposes a new provenance representation which is a hybrid of annotation and inversion methods in order to achieve combined advantage. This representation is adaptive to the storage constraint and the response time requirement of provenance inversion on-the-fly.

Phosphaturic Mesenchymal Tumor (PMT) is a polymorphic group of extremely rare and usually benign, slow-growing tumors. PMT is frequently associated with tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO), a paraneoplastic syndrome that manifests as renal phosphate wasting. The diagnosis is often delayed due to the non-specific nature of the symptoms and is also misdiagnosed due to histological overlap with other mesenchymal neoplasms. Serious disabilities may occur if they are not treated. Complete resection of the tumor is curative and leads to the normalization of biochemical abnormalities and inversion of symptoms. The majority of these tumors occur in the extremities (95%) with rare cases reported in the jaws. This patient presented to the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Department, Lady Reading Hospital Peshawar Pakistan with a recurrent PMT involving a mandible with a history of three months, which had already been misdiagnosed previously. Biochemical reports were normal as our case was diagnosed at a very early stage due to a prominent location and rapidly increasing size. Resection of the tumor was performed with a 1.5 cm safe margin. The mandibular reconstruction was then done with an L-type reconstruction plate fixed with bi-cortical screws on the remaining mandible on each side. Patient recovery was uneventful and he is now on follow up. At present, the patient remains well without any evidence of local recurrence.

Slow Allele

Abstract The history of the Drosophila melanogaster alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) Fast/Slow polymorphism was studied by recording molecular variation and inversion polymorphism in 233 chromosomes from European and African populations. Silent molecular variation in the Slow allele was very different between standard chromosomes and chromosomes bearing the In(2L)t inversion. Within populations, inverted Slow haplotypes were more variable than standard Slow haplotypes. Between populations, geographical structure was almost nonexistent for inverted Slow haplotypes and highly significant for standard Slow. All Fast haplotypes occurred on standard chromosomes. They showed little variation within and between populations. They were highly significantly closer to standard Slow haplotypes from Europe. These results suggest that the current range of Fast and In(2L)t Slow haplotypes is recent and that an older genetic differentiation between populations was followed by allele-specific gene flow.
