    Abstract Family Constellations are an emerging therapeutic approach for working with local and non-local consciousness. First developed by German psychoanalyst Bert Hellinger, and now practiced by thousands of licensed and un-licensed facilitators globally, Family Constellations are a transpersonal and systemically oriented therapeutic process. Their aim is to address a focus client's emotional, behavioral, relational, or somatic issues by uncovering and resolving transgenerational entanglements within their family system. The author expands on the proposal of symbiogenesis as a mediator of local and non-local consciousness to query whether applying the Observer Effect to inherited trauma may influence epigenetic marks. An expanded perspective on consciousness, life, death, and quantum fields may provide a more comprehensive framework to address therapeutic interventions for common emotional and behavioral disorders. Innovative features of Family Constellations are its phenomenological orientation, reference to family system entanglements, and potential for symptom relief through cellular mediation of ancestral memory. Family Constellations utilize techniques called representative perception and tuning-in to identify and release ancestral traumas. These are akin to remote viewing and mediumship. While the scientific basis for Family Constellations is speculative, the text references research on the quantum theory of consciousness, mediumship and remote viewing as potential supporting evidence. Four case studies are presented.

    Abstract For decades investors have sought to find ways of profiting off the billions of public dollars spent annually on systems of public schooling across the world. This interest has coincided with the growing marketization of systems of public schooling, especially in the United States, as well as the increased use of educational technologies (or EdTech). This study examines the implications of the growing use of profit-driven educational technologies for the politics and spatial practices of schooling. Specifically, it examines past experiences with market-oriented EdTech systems in Oregon and Michigan to highlight how the combination of market systems of governance and profit-driven EdTech practices depend on the deconstruction of links between schools, communities, and students in order to roll out aspatial and apolitical educational practices that maximize profits. The placeless vision for education embedded in profit-driven EdTech helps promote the reproduction of dominant orders and stifles place-based struggles over educational justice.

    Abstract The DAN/TIR genes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae encode homologous mannoproteins, some of which are essential for anaerobic growth. Expression of these genes is induced during anaerobiosis and in some cases during cold shock. We show that several heme-responsive mechanisms combine to regulate DAN/TIR gene expression. The first mechanism employs two repression factors, Mox1 and Mox2, and an activation factor, Mox4 (for mannoprotein regulation by oxygen). The genes encoding these proteins were identified by selecting for recessive mutants with altered regulation of a dan1::ura3 fusion. MOX4 is identical to UPC2, encoding a binucleate zinc cluster protein controlling expression of an anaerobic sterol transport system. Mox4/Upc2 is required for expression of all the DAN/TIR genes. It appears to act through a consensus sequence termed the AR1 site, as does Mox2. The noninducible mox4Delta allele was epistatic to the constitutive mox1 and mox2 mutations, suggesting that Mox1 and Mox2 modulate activation by Mox4 in a heme-dependent fashion. Mutations in a putative repression domain in Mox4 caused constitutive expression of the DAN/TIR genes, indicating a role for this domain in heme repression. MOX4 expression is induced both in anaerobic and cold-shocked cells, so heme may also regulate DAN/TIR expression through inhibition of expression of MOX4. Indeed, ectopic expression of MOX4 in aerobic cells resulted in partially constitutive expression of DAN1. Heme also regulates expression of some of the DAN/TIR genes through the Rox7 repressor, which also controls expression of the hypoxic gene ANB1. In addition Rox1, another heme-responsive repressor, and the global repressors Tup1 and Ssn6 are also required for full aerobic repression of these genes.

    Abstract While sensing in high temporal resolution is necessary for a wide range of applications, it is still limited nowadays due to the camera sampling rate. In this work, we try to increase the temporal resolution beyond the Nyquist frequency, which is limited by the sensor's sampling rate. This work establishes a novel approach to temporal super-resolution that uses the object-reflecting properties from an active illumination source to go beyond this limit. Following theoretical derivation and the development of signal-processing-based algorithms, we demonstrate how to increase the detected temporal spectral range by a factor of six and possibly even more. Our method is supported by simulations and experiments, and we demonstrate (via application) how we use our method to dramatically improve the accuracy of object motion estimation. We share our simulation code on GitHub.

    Abstract The incidence of hip arthroscopy (HA) has seen a dramatic rise over the past decade, with a bimodal distribution of patient age with peaks at both 18 and 42 years of age. Thus, it is essential to reduce complications, including venous thromboembolism (VTE), given reported incidences as high as 7%. Fortunately, more recent research, perhaps reflecting an evolution resulting in lower HA surgical traction times, has shown a VTE incidence of 0.6%. Perhaps because of such a low rate, recent research has also shown that generally, thromboprophylaxis does not significantly decrease the odds of VTE. The strongest predictors of VTE after HA are oral contraceptive use, prior malignancy, and obesity. Rehabilitation is also an important factor as some patients are ambulatory on postoperative day 1, reducing the VTE risk, whereas others require a few weeks of protected weight bearing, increasing their risk. A patient-specific approach to VTE prevention after HA, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, is essential.

    Abstract The ligamentum teres (LT) is known to play a role as a secondary stabilizer of the hip joint. LT tears can be associated with hip instability. In patients with borderline developmental dysplasia of the hip (BDDH), the correlation between LT tears and microinstability is even more pronounced because of the increased mechanical stress placed on the ligament. This relationship may lead certain surgeons to consider new indications for LT reconstructions. However, caution is warranted regarding the potential role of LT reconstruction in these patients, particularly since the primary deficiency in BDDH is bony undercoverage. Addressing this bony undercoverage should be a primary consideration that may be supplemented with other procedures, which may include addressing soft-tissue injuries around the hip such as LT tears. This is especially the case in those patients with persistent symptoms after management of labral tears or LT disruption.

    Abstract Background: There are few if any life-span population-based studies of psychiatric disorder-associated biomedical and biophysical disorders and diseases (morbidity).
    Aim: To scope the present state of research regarding the biomedical and biophysical morbidity associated with affective and mental disorder in epidemiological samples, and to examine the life-span relationship between affective disorders and biomedical/biophysical disorders to illustrate a novel approach employing the odds ratio to represent the intensity of biomedical and biophysical morbidity associated in time in a population.
    Methods: A repeatable systematic literature search of PubMed was represented in summary. Additionally, a regional population-based dataset was constructed and analyzed to represent the age- and sex-specific diagnoses (International Classification of Diseases Version 9, ICD-9) for those with and without affective disorder. The analysis presents a novel index of the relative age-specific frequency of life-span biomedical and biophysical diagnoses associated with affective disorder.
    Results: The volume of biomedical and biophysical morbidity associated with mental disorder literature has increased, yet few studies measure comprehensive temporal hyper-morbidity (over-representation of diseases over time, either before or after the index diagnostic event) in populations. Further, there have been only a few population-based studies examining the morbidity associated with affective disorder and only one that examines the full diagnostic range of lifespan morbidity. Substantial differences arose between males and females with more females than males having greater frequencies of diagnoses. The age-specific distributions of the maximum proportional diagnosis frequency ratios for each sex illustrate the greatest diagnosis-specific differences when comparing the biomedical and biophysical diagnoses of those with and without affective disorder when the same diagnosis was represented in each grouping at the same age.
    Conclusion: Clinical research needs to focus on more than one or two comorbid biomedical or biophysical disorders at a time. Comprehensive population-based examination of the lifespan biomedical and biophysical multi-morbidity associated with affective disorder has the potential to directly inform clinical practice. Representing the proportional ratios of age-specific frequency of diagnoses for the full range of ICD-9 diagnoses is a novel analytical model. Diagnostic frequency appears a viable representation of a given disease state, such as affective disorder. Fortunately, the WPA has developed a global education section to better understand the biomedical and biophysical morbidity associated with all psychiatric disorders. This has been identified by the WPA as the psychiatric practice challenge of the 21

    Abstract Articular cartilage lesions of the acetabulum may result in significant pain and dysfunction for patients with treatment options consisting of either microfracture or various forms of cartilage restoration procedures. A systematic review of 529 patients demonstrated similar, if not lower, reoperation rates and patient-reported outcomes in patients receiving cartilage restoration procedures compared with microfracture. The primary outcomes examined in this review were reoperation rates and patient-reported outcomes with no clear mention of radiographic outcomes and no clearly defined indications as to who would benefit from a cartilage-based procedure. This raises the question as to whether there should be a consensus-based and standardized criteria established and standardized among the hip preservation expert community to evaluate the success of these cartilage restoration procedures from an imaging standpoint. These criteria can also be incorporated into a composite evaluation that combines clinical, imaging, and patient-reported outcomes to determine optimal patient candidacy for cartilage procedures as well. This would be a very useful steppingstone for much-needed future Level I randomized studies or prospective, registry-based data on this topic.
