Abstract	Written by an interdisciplinary team of scholars, this book offers novel perspectives on the history of medical writing and scientific thought-styles by examining patterns of change and reception in genres, discourse, and lexis in the period 1500-1820. Each chapter demonstrates in detail how changing textual forms were closely tied to major multi-faceted social developments: industrialisation, urbanisation, expanding trade, colonialization, and changes in communication, all of which posed new demands on medical care. It then shows how these developments were reflected in a range of medical discourses, such as bills of mortality, medical advertisements, medical recipes, and medical rhetoric, and provides an extensive body of case studies to highlight how varieties of medical discourse have been targeted at different audiences over time. It draws on a wide range of methodological frameworks and is accompanied by numerous relevant illustrations, making it essential reading for academic researchers and students across the human sciences.

Article: Partial Ribosomal Nontranscribed Spacer Sequences Distinguish Rhagoletis zephyria (Diptera: Tephritidae) From the Apple Maggot, R. pomonella

Abstract	The apple maggot, Rhagoletis pomonella (Walsh), was introduced into the apple-growing regions of the Pacific Northwest in the U.S.A. during the past 60–100 yr. Apple maggot (larvae, puparia, and adults) is difficult to distinguish from its morphologically similar sister species, Rhagoletis zephyria Snow, which is native and abundant in the Pacific Northwest. While morphological identifications are common practice, a simple, inexpensive assay based on genetic differences would be very useful when morphological traits are unclear. Here we report nucleotide substitution and insertion–deletion mutations in the nontranscribed spacer (NTS) of the ribosomal RNA gene cistron of R. pomonella and R. zephyria that appear to be diagnostic for these two fly species. Insertion–deletion variation is substantial and results in a 49 base-pair difference in PCR amplicon size between R. zephyria and R. pomonella that can be scored using agarose gel electrophoresis. PCR amplification and DNA sequencing of 766 bp of the NTS region from 38 R. pomonella individuals and 35 R. zephyria individuals from across their geographic ranges led to the expected PCR fragments of approx. 840 bp and 790 bp, respectively, as did amplification and sequencing of a smaller set of 26 R. pomonella and 16 R. zephyria flies from a sympatric site in Washington State. Conversely, 633 bp mitochondrial COI barcode sequences from this set of flies were polyphyletic with respect to R. pomonella and R. zephyria. Thus, differences in NTS PCR products on agarose gels potentially provide a simple way to distinguish between R. pomonella and R. zephyria.

Abstract	Immune cells are known to be critical for successful limb regeneration in the axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum), but many details regarding their identity, behavior, and function are yet to be resolved. We isolated peripheral leukocytes from the blood of adult axolotls and then created two samples for single-cell sequencing: 1) peripheral leukocytes (N = 7889) and 2) peripheral leukocytes with presumptive macrophages from the intraperitoneal cavity (N = 4998). Using k-means clustering, we identified 6 cell populations from each sample that presented gene expression patterns indicative of erythrocyte, thrombocyte, neutrophil, B-cell, T-cell, and myeloid cell populations. A seventh, presumptive macrophage cell population was identified uniquely from sample 2. We then isolated cells from amputated axolotl limbs at 1 and 6 days post-amputation (DPA) and performed single cell sequencing (N = 8272 and 9906 cells respectively) to identify immune and non-immune cell populations. Using k-means clustering, we identified 8 cell populations overall, with the majority of cells expressing erythrocyte-specific genes. Even though erythrocytes predominated, we used an unbiased approach to identify infiltrating neutrophil, macrophage, and lymphocyte populations at both time points. Additionally, populations expressing genes for epidermal cells, fibroblast-like cells, and endothelial cells were also identified. Consistent with results from previous experimental studies, neutrophils were more abundant at 1 DPA than 6 DPA, while macrophages and non-immune cells exhibited inverse abundance patterns. Of note, we identified a small population of fibroblast-like cells at 1 DPA that was represented by considerably more cells at 6 DPA. We hypothesize that these are early progenitor cells that give rise to the blastema. The enriched gene sets from our work will aid future single-cell investigations of immune cell diversity and function during axolotl limb regeneration.

Abstract	Two separate studies were conducted to evaluate variations in the amount of connective tissue remaining in beef muscle on resultant properties of flaked and formed steaks. Use of chucks rather than rounds as raw material produced greater tenderness, less sensory panel determined connective tissue and lower juiciness scores. As a team of trimmers repeated the instructed trimming procedures on round and chuck muscles over a 3-d period, it appeared that over this time more of the connective tissue was being removed from chuck and less from round muscles. For chuck muscles, more of the soluble collagen was being left on the muscles over the 3-d period. However, these differences in total and soluble collagen did not influence the properties measured. In a second study, which consisted of three (high, intermediate, low) levels of connective tissus in raw materials, texture profile panelists found a greater amount of gristle and webbed tissue (form of connective tissue) in steaks made from raw material with high connective tissue. These steaks with high connective tissue levels were also visually rated as more distorted and fibrous following cooking, with greater hardness and cohesiveness during first bite. Samples from the steaks had higher shear force and Newton values.

Abstract	Aim: To determine factors associated with progression to referable diabetic retinopathy in people with type 2 diabetes in the Republic of Ireland. Research design and methods: The study was conducted in a dynamic cohort of 2770 people with type 2 diabetes, recruited between April 2005 and July 2013. Systemic factors (systolic and diastolic blood pressure, HbA Results: There was a fourfold increased risk of progression to referral when retinopathy was present at baseline vs no retinopathy at baseline (hazard ratio 4.02, 95% CI 2.80-5.78; P<0.001). Higher current values of HbA Conclusions: Presence of retinopathy at baseline was strongly associated with increased risk of referral. Modest associations between systemic factors and risk of progression to referable retinopathy were detected.

Abstract	The Japanese beetle (Popillia japonica) is one of the most destructive invasive pests in North America, causing significant economic impact to many fruit crops, turfgrass and the nursery industry. A microsporidian pathogen of Japanese beetle, Ovavesicula popilliae, discovered in 1985, proliferates in the Malpighian tubules of larvae and adults, disrupting waste-removal, mineral filtering, and fluid balance in heavily infected individuals. Most infected larvae do not survive from fall to spring, and egg production by infected females is reduced by 50%.Ovavesicula popilliae is promising as a classical biological control agent for Japanese beetle, but outside of surveys completed in Connecticut and Michigan little is known about its geographic distribution in North America. The objective of this research is to obtain a better understanding of the distribution of O. popilliae in North America. Japanese beetles were collected at 59 locations in a total of 19 different states in the USA for pathogen analysis. Overall, the proportion of Japanese beetle adults infected by O. popilliae was much greater in Michigan, Ohio, Tennessee and four states in the northeastern USA compared with sites located west of the Mississippi River (18.6 ± 13.3% and 0.6 ± 1.2%, respectively). Nucleotide sequences of the gene encoding a small subunit of nuclear ribosomal RNA (ssrDNA), obtained from GenBank for O. popilliae was used to develop a highly specific qPCR test for O. popilliae DNA. A subsample of 110 individual Japanese beetles were visually diagnosed first, then analyzed via qPCR. Visual diagnosis and qPCR detection agreed for 80.9% of the beetles tested. The qPCR assay is more sensitive than visual diagnosis (56 visually positive, 73 qPCR positive), is highly specific for O. popilliae, and will be useful for detecting the pathogen in large batches of beetles, or in beetle frass.
