Abstract:

Although Brock University does not have a specific program in Medieval Studies, it does offer a number of courses dealing with die Middle Ages in various departments of the Faculty of Humanities. The Dean of the Faculty, Dr Rosemary Drage Hale, has herself devoted a considerable amount of her research to the Middle Ages, especially in the areas of medieval women’s religious experience and medieval sermons.

Abstract:

In 1912, the General Brock Chapter of the Imperial Order Daughters of the Empire (IODE) unveiled a monument to General Sir Isaac Brock in Brockville, Ontario. This monument represented just part of the efforts of a network of mostly Anglo-Saxon women from the IODE, United Empire Loyalists of Ontario, and Ontario Historical Society to celebrate the centenary of the War of 1812 as the “Brock Centenary.” The context of the rise of the “Brock Centenary” is investigated by applying social network theory to historical memory studies, re-interpreting historical evidence from 1898 to 1912. An analysis of membership lists both reaffirms some previous arguments around imperial and feminist ideals and also points to other promising avenues of inquiry regarding the importance and influence of the groups and women involved.

Abstract:

Durante os anos 1980, o rock brasileiro — ou “BRock” – se tornou um relevante porta-voz em favor do fim da ditadura civil-militar. Para além da esfera musical, o universo cultural do BRock foi também tributário de sua dimensão visual, uma vez que artistas dependiam de encartes, cartazes, fotos, vídeos, roupas e outras materialidades para divulgação de seu trabalho e consolidação de sua identidade. Nesse contexto, o formato videoclipe se tornava um marco da visualidade do BRock desse período. Neste artigo, pretende-se analisar as audiovisualidades do rock brasileiro dos anos 1980 em videoclipes lançados em 1986, ano mais próspero do movimento BRock, sob uma perspectiva tecnocultural, baseada nos conceitos de Fischer (2013) e Shaw (2008), através do método cartográfico benjaminiano. As análises evidenciam as características principais da visualidade dos videoclipes em questão, apresentadas aqui em três coleções: urbanidade, performatividade e factualidade

Abstract:

5525 Background: The incidence and severity of baseline hearing abnormality in HNCP is poorly characterized, as is the subsequent CDDP associated hearing loss. While formal behavioral audiograms can characterize CDDP associated hearing loss in great detail, most oncologists either rely on subjective evaluation of hearing loss or grade hearing impairment using the CTCAE. Two new grading systems for grading cisplatin ototoxicity have been developed for use in pediatrics, the Brock and Chang systems. This report is the first evaluation of these 3 hearing loss criteria in an adult cancer patient population. Methods: We conducted an electronic medical records (EMR) search for all HNCP between 2004 and 2010 treated at the Stanford Cancer Institute (SCI) and identified which patients had audiograms in the EMR, and who had received CDDP. Three investigators (RL, ADC, KC) independently graded these audiograms using the CTCAE v3 and v4, Brock and Chang criteria. Baseline distributions, changes following CDDP dosing, and inter-observer variability were calculated for hearing impairment grading using all four criteria. Results: We evaluated 460 audiograms in 111 patients. Because 282/460 of the audiograms did not have threshold shifts measured at 1,2,3,4,6 and 8 kHz, CTCAE v4 could not be applied to them . We therefore limited all further comparisons to CTCv3, Brock and Chang criteria. The table below summarizes the analysis. Conclusions: The Brock and Chang ototoxity criteria scales deliver a distribution of hearing AE grades at baseline more compatible than the CTCAE v3 with respect to the expectation that most HNCP do not have severe baseline hearing loss. Both the Brock and Chang scales are more sensitive than the CTCv3 to CDDP associated hearing changes. The Brock scale, followed by the Chang scale, demonstrated highest inter-rater agreement. Additional data concerning performance characteristics and utility of these three grading systems will be presented. Replacement of the present hearing impairment criteria in the CTCAE with either the Brock or Chang scales should be considered. [Table: see text]

Abstract:

BackgroundEstimation of the risk of malignancy in pulmonary nodules detected by CT is central in clinical management. The use of artificial intelligence (AI) offers an opportunity to improve risk prediction. Here we compare the performance of an AI algorithm, the lung cancer prediction convolutional neural network (LCP-CNN), with that of the Brock University model, recommended in UK guidelines.MethodsA dataset of incidentally detected pulmonary nodules measuring 5–15 mm was collected retrospectively from three UK hospitals for use in a validation study. Ground truth diagnosis for each nodule was based on histology (required for any cancer), resolution, stability or (for pulmonary lymph nodes only) expert opinion. There were 1397 nodules in 1187 patients, of which 234 nodules in 229 (19.3%) patients were cancer. Model discrimination and performance statistics at predefined score thresholds were compared between the Brock model and the LCP-CNN.ResultsThe area under the curve for LCP-CNN was 89.6% (95% CI 87.6 to 91.5), compared with 86.8% (95% CI 84.3 to 89.1) for the Brock model (p≤0.005). Using the LCP-CNN, we found that 24.5% of nodules scored below the lowest cancer nodule score, compared with 10.9% using the Brock score. Using the predefined thresholds, we found that the LCP-CNN gave one false negative (0.4% of cancers), whereas the Brock model gave six (2.5%), while specificity statistics were similar between the two models.ConclusionThe LCP-CNN score has better discrimination and allows a larger proportion of benign nodules to be identified without missing cancers than the Brock model. This has the potential to substantially reduce the proportion of surveillance CT scans required and thus save significant resources.

Abstract:

E-Brock Bugs is a serious educational game (SEG) about probability which was created based on Devlin's design principles for games whose players adopt identities of mathematically able persons. This kind of games in which “players think and act like real world professionals” has been called epistemic. This article presents an empirical study of 16-year-old students' (n=61) experience playing E-Brock Bugs as part of their mathematics data management course. Results suggest that most students engaged in the game's mathematics and experienced a mathematical in-game identity. E-Brock Bugs contributes to validate Devlin's game design approach to epistemic mathematics SEGs.

Abstract:

Purpose Platinum-based therapy is the mainstay for management of high-risk neuroblastoma. Prevalence of platinum-related ototoxicity has ranged from 13% to 95% in previous reports; variability is attributable to small samples and disparate grading scales. There is no consensus regarding optimal ototoxicity grading. Furthermore, prevalence and predictors of hearing loss in a large uniformly treated high-risk neuroblastoma population are unknown. We address these gaps in our study. Patients and Methods Audiologic testing was completed after administration of cisplatin alone (< 400 mg/m2; exposure one) or after cisplatin (400 mg/m2) plus carboplatin (1,700 mg/m2; exposure two). Hearing loss was graded using four scales (American Speech-Language-Hearing Association; Brock; Chang; and Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, version 3 [CTCAEv3]). Results Of 489 eligible patients, 333 had evaluable audiologic data. Median age at diagnosis was 3.3 years. Prevalence of severe hearing loss differed by scale. For those in the exposure-one group, prevalence ranged from 8% per Brock to 47% per CTCAEv3 (Brock v CTCAEv3 and Chang, P < .01; CTCAEv3 v Chang, P = .16); for those in the exposure-two group, prevalence ranged from 30% per Brock to 71% per CTCAEv3 (all pair-wise comparisons, P < .01). In patients requiring hearing aids, hearing loss was graded as severe in 49% (Brock), 91% (Chang), and 100% (CTCAEv3). Risk factors for severe hearing loss included exposure to cisplatin and carboplatin compared with cisplatin alone and hospitalization for infection. Conclusion Severe hearing loss is prevalent among children with high-risk neuroblastoma. Exposure to cisplatin combined with myeloablative carboplatin significantly increases risk. The Brock scale underestimates severe hearing loss and should be used with caution in this setting.

Abstract:

In this paper we consider the so-called procedure of Continuous Steiner Symmetrization, introduced by Brock in [F. Brock, Math. Nachr. 172 (1995) 25–48 and F. Brock, Proc. Indian Acad. Sci. 110 (2000) 157–204]. It transforms every open set Ω ⊂⊂ ℝd into the ball keeping the volume fixed and letting the first eigenvalue and the torsional rigidity respectively decrease and increase. While this does not provide, in general, a γ-continuous map t ↦ Ωt, it can be slightly modified so to obtain the γ-continuity for a γ-dense class of domains Ω, namely, the class of polyhedral sets in ℝd. This allows to obtain a sharp characterization of the Blaschke-Santaló diagram of torsion and eigenvalue.

Abstract:

In 1946, Tom Brock spent part of his summer dumping mustard gas bombs off a barge into the Atlantic Ocean. Brock was a civilian employed by the United States Army Transport Service in Charleston, South Carolina. His job was to dispose of surplus bombs and drums filled with mustard gas. Sulphur mustard, commonly called “mustard gas,” can take several forms: a liquid, a solid, or a vapour. Mustard gas, named for its mustard-like color and smell, is a vesicant that is toxic to humans and causes blistering and burns, affecting the lungs, eyes, and skin. Brock recalled that he and the soldiers enjoyed watching the occasional bomb explode as it sunk into the water. “We thought it was fun,” explained Brock. “I was 18 or 19 years old. We weren’t scared. We didn’t fear any explosive. We thought we were immortal.” Later that summer he was required to guard a barge of bombs that were leaking mustard gas, which looked to him like hot molasses. Due to the known health risks, Brock was told to wear a protective suit and gas mask. However, it was a hot day so he loosened the straps around his legs. As a result, enormous blisters developed, swelling out like a balloon from his toes to his knees. His summer job was no longer fun as he experienced firsthand the health hazards of exposure to mustard gas.

Abstract:

Purpose Optimal assessment methods and criteria for reporting hearing outcomes in children who receive treatment with cisplatin are uncertain. The objectives of our study were to compare different ototoxicity classification systems, to evaluate the feasibility of including otoacoustic emissions and extended high frequency audiometry, and to evaluate a central review mechanism for audiologic results for cisplatin-treated children in the cooperative group setting. Patients and Methods Eligible participants were 1 to 30 years, with planned cisplatin-containing treatment. Hearing evaluations were conducted at baseline, before each cisplatin cycle, and at the end of therapy. Audiologic results were assessed and graded by the testing audiologist and by two central review audiologists using the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association Ototoxicity Criteria (ASHA), Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, version 3.0 (CTCAE), and Brock Ototoxicity Grades (Brock). One central reviewer also used the International Society of Pediatric Oncology Ototoxicity Scale (SIOP). Results At the end of treatment, the prevalence of any degree of ototoxicity ranged from 40% to 56%, and severe ototoxicity ranged from 7% to 22%. Compared with CTCAE, SIOP detected significantly more ototoxicity ( P = .004), whereas Brock criteria detected significantly fewer patients with any or severe ototoxicity ( P < .001 for both). SIOP detected ototoxicity earlier than did the other scales. Agreement between the central reviewers and the institutional audiologist was almost perfect for ASHA and Brock, whereas the poorest agreement occurred with CTCAE. Conclusion The SIOP scale may be superior to ASHA, Brock, and CTCAE scales for classifying ototoxicity in pediatric patients who were treated with cisplatin. Future studies should evaluate inter-rater reliability of the SIOP scale.

Abstract:

Neste artigo eu respondo à objeção principal de Stuart Brock (2010, 2016) ao artefactualismo. De acordo com Brock, artefactualistas como Amie Thomasson (1999) não conseguem explicar como e quando os objetos ficcionais são criados, sendo o artefactualismo, portanto, um tipo de criacionismo teológico. Contrariamente a Brock, e adaptando a teoria dos atos de fala de John Austin (1962) ao presente caso, eu argumento que objetos ficcionais são criados através de um proferimento performativo que, para ser feliz, deve (i) ser realizado pelo indivíduo adequado (um autor ou autora), (ii) com as intenções apropriadas (o ato de realização de ficção), no contexto adequado (associado às nossas práticas pré-estabelecidas de ficção) onde o autor ou autora (iv) nomeia, fornece ao menos uma descrição ou oferece uma imagem para instituir o objeto individual através dos seus atos intencionais.
