Abstract:
Abstract Objective: To evaluate the morphological changes in the lips and to determine the degree of improvement in the smile after orthodontic treatment for Class II division 1 malocclusion. Materials and Methods: The sample subjects were divided into two groups: a group that consisted of 20 adult female patients with Angle Class II division 1 malocclusion and a control group that consisted of 28 adult female volunteers with normal occlusion. Frontal photographs were taken before and after orthodontic treatment, and 35 landmarks were placed on each tracing made from the photograph. Thereafter, landmarks were digitized into an x- and y-coordinate system with the subnasal point as the origin. The comparisons between pretreatment and posttreatment at rest and on smiling, and the comparisons between Class II division 1 and control group were made using Student's t-test. Results: Both the upper and lower lips in the smile of patients in the Class II division 1 pretreatment group were positioned downward, and the upward movement of the upper lip and mouth corners was smaller in comparison with the control group. These characteristics of the Class II smile improved after orthodontic treatment, but the differences with the control group remained unchanged immediately after treatment. Conclusion: The soft tissue morphology shows a relative improvement after orthodontic treatment.

Abstract:
AbstractI surveyed our echocardiographic database of the years between 1998 and 2012 for congenital abnormalities of the mitral valve in patients over 14 years. A total of 249 patients with mitral valve abnormalities were identified. Abnormalities included clefts in the mitral valve in 58 patients, double orifice of the mitral valve in 19, mitral stenosis with two papillary muscles in 72, and mitral stenosis with one papillary muscle in 51 patients. Supravalvar rings were found in 35 patients with a single papillary muscle, and mitral stenoses with two papillary muscles were found in 22 patients. Mitral prolapse occurred in 44 patients and mitral valvar straddle in five patients. The patients were evaluated by all modalities of ultrasound available over the course of time. Although some lesions were isolated, there were many lesions in which more than one mitral deformity presented in the same patient. The patients are presented showing anatomical correlation with autopsy specimens, some of which came from the patients in this series, and others matched to show correlative anatomy. These lesions remain rare as a group and continue to have high morbidity and mortality.

Abstract:
The present study investigates to what extent morphological priming varies across different groups of native speakers of a language. In two masked-priming experiments, we investigate the processing of morphologically complex Turkish words in Turkish heritage speakers raised and living in Germany. Materials and experimental design were based on Kırkıcı and Clahsen’s (2013) study on morphological processing in Turkish native speakers and L2 learners, allowing for direct comparisons between the three groups. Experiment 1 investigated priming effects for morphologically related prime-target pairs. Heritage speakers showed a similar pattern of results as the L1 comparison group, with significant priming effects for prime-target pairs with inflected primes (e.g. ‘sorar-sor’ asks-ask) as well as for prime-target pairs with derived primes (e.g. ‘sağlık-sağ’ health-healthy). In Experiment 2, we measured priming effects for prime-target pairs which were semantically and morphologically unrelated, but only related with regard to orthographic overlap (e.g. ‘devre-dev’ period-giant). Unlike both L1 speakers raised in Turkey and highly proficient L2 learners, heritage speakers also showed significant priming effects in this condition. Our results suggest that heritage speakers differ from both native speakers and L2 learners in that they rely more on (orthographic) surface form properties of the stimulus during early stages of word recognition, at the expense of morphological decomposition.

Abstract:
>Magister Scientiae - MSc
Bladder grasshoppers belong to the order Orthoptera, ancient family Pneumoridae and Superfamily Pneumoroidea. This small group of grasshoppers are sound producing, nocturnal, herbivorous grasshoppers endemic to the coastal regions of southern Africa. Very little genetic work has been done on these grasshoppers, and there is some taxonomic confusion regarding the validity of some species descriptions. The aim of this study was to provide much needed clarity on the true taxonomic diversity and polymorphic attributes within the Pneumoridae, focusing on selected taxa of uncertain status. Bladder grasshoppers show distinct discontinuous polymorphism, resulting in two clearly different male morphs utilizing two different mating strategies. Primary males make use of acoustic communication for mate location. Secondary males (alternate males) are significantly smaller and employ a “sneaker” or satellite strategy where they exploit the calling between duetting couples to locate the females before the primary male. Three species of bladder grasshoppers have been described (Parabullacris vansoni, Paraphysemacris spinosus and Pneumoracris browni) that only have an alternate male morph. The validity of these species descriptions has come into question with the discovery of alternate male morphs in at least three other species (Bullacris discolor, B. membracioides and B. obliqua). Thus, the species described by Dirsh (1963) may simply be alternate males of existing species. However, to date there have been no studies looking at the genetics of alternate males, which would definitively establish whether they are conspecific with primary males.

Abstract:
When species compete for resources, in a stable homogeneous environment, there are two possible outcomes. The first is that one species will out-compete the other and exclude it from the environment. This is known as the competitive exclusion principle. The second is that both species will manage to coexist. Coexistence can only occur if the species’ niches are differentiated such that interspecific competition is minimised, or eliminated. This outcome is known as resource partitioning. Two closely related Australian skink species of the Egernia genus, Egernia multiscutata and Egernia whitii, are abundant and sympatric on Wedge Island in South Australia’s Spencer Gulf. The species are morphologically very similar and appear to have very similar life histories and habitat requirements. Ostensibly, they would compete for limiting resources in this environment. This thesis is the first investigation into resource partitioning in this previously unstudied model organism. I report the results of multi-faceted investigations into the coexistence of the skinks, E. multiscutata and E. whitii on Wedge Island and the evidence for, and mechanisms of, any facultative resource partitioning between them. Study methods involved a transect survey of most of Wedge Island to determine the species’ distributions and any evidence for resource partitioning; a morphological comparison to investigate any potential competitive advantages of either species; a habitat choice experiment to establish retreat-site preferences in the absence of interspecific interference; and, a series of staged dyadic encounter experiments to investigate interspecific competitive interactions. Resource partitioning was evidenced by differential distributions of the species among substrates containing the elements required for permanent refuge shelters. This partitioning was not mediated by avoidance of particular substrates but by the presence of the opponent species, combined with attraction to suitable substrates. Asymmetries in some morphological characters were found to confer a potential competitive advantage to E. multiscutata in agonistic encounters with E. whitii. Both species were found to have the same refuge site preferences when interference competition was experimentally removed. This result was not concordant with observed resource partitioning in the field and suggests that the habitat choices of both species are modified by the presence of the opponent species. Analyses of staged dyadic encounter experiments showed that E. multiscutata was more likely to gain greater access to a contested habitat resource and more likely to exclude E. whitii from the resource than vice-versa. Nevertheless, the outcome of competitive interactions was not completely deterministic and there was some tolerance of co-habitation. E. multiscutata’s competitive advantage was attributable largely to its greater mass and head dimensions relative to snout to vent length. However, differential behavioural responses to the threat of larger opponent size also played an important part in resource partitioning between the species.

Abstract:
I nuläget finns flertalet företag som tillverkar distanser som är kompatibla med originalimplantat. Det finns dock ingen evidens för att dessa distanser är likvärdiga med originaldistanser när de används på originalimplantat. God passform hos implantatkomponenter är en viktig faktor för att undvika biologiska och tekniska komplikationer.Syftet med den här studien var att jämföra passformen mellan originaldistans och originlimplantat med kompatibel kopiadistans och originalimplantat.Material och metod: Fem originaldistanser och fem kompatibla distanser skruvades till originalimplantat. Provkroppar bäddades in och delade på mitten för att sedan analyseras i ljusmikroskop och SEM. Där mättes kontaktytans längd och mellanrummet mellan implantat och distans och distans och distansskruv. All data analyserades i SPSS.Resultatet: Implantatkoplex med kopiadistans hade fem gånger kortare kontaktyta mellan komponenterna och mellanrummet var större, vilket ger en försämrad stabilitet under andvändning. Analysen av distansskruvens yta visade morfologiska skillnader mot den inre ytan av distansen vilket kan leda till deformation och/eller fraktur av skruven.Konklusion: Användning av lågpris kopiadistanser till Astra originalimplantat kan leda till signifikant avvikande passform hos distansen och en lägre tolerans för stress hos distansskruven.
Nowadays there exist different abutments from different companies that are compatible to a certain manufacturer implant. But no scientific evidence exists on whether the fit of the compatible abutments are comparable to that of the genuine abutments when connected to the genuine implants. God fitting of implant components is an essential factor to avoid microgap formation in implant-abutment interface due to microgaps lead to biological and biomechanical complications. The aim of this study was to compare interface in original abutment and copy compatible abutment connected to original implant.Material and Methods: Five original abutments and five compatible abutments were connected to the original implants. The complex were sectioned in the middle and thereafter analyzed in a light microscope and SEM by measuring contact length and interface thickness between the implant and abutment and also between the abutment and abutment screw. All data was analyzed with SPSS-program.Result: Compatible implant complex had about five times shorter contact surface between components and interface was thicker which gives less stability under clinical function. The analyze of screw-abutment interface showed morphologic differences with the inner surface of the abutment which could lead to screw deformation and even fracture.Conclusion: Using low-cost compatible abutments connected to original Astra implants could lead to significant fit discrepancy of the copy abutments and lower stress tolerance in the abutment screw.

Abstract: The present study analyses the taxonomy, external and internal morphology of the reproductive apparatus and relative growth of the ghost shrimp Callichirus major from the coast of Brazil. For this, specimens of C. major were collected along the entire Brazilian coast and, in particular, monthly, for one year, in Gonzaga’s Beach, Southeastern region of Brazil. A total of 840 individuals (316 males, 524 females) were evaluated. Occurring from the state of Pará to Santa Catarina, C. major presented a rostrum with two triangular anterolateral projections, ocular peduncles with obtuse tips, dactyl of the greater chelipod of males with a bifid tip and smooth internal margin, proximal projection of the carpal with straight margin, merus with proximal portion with dentate dorsal margin, smaller chelipod with toothed cutting edge and a large tooth curved forward between the lateral projections of the telson. These animals presented marked morphological differences when compared to specimens of C. major from Florida (USA), justifying the separation of the large Western Atlantic population from C. major and determining a new species in this genus – Callichirus brasiliensis n. sp. In the chapters of this thesis that don’t deal with taxonomy, we chose to keep the name of the species so far accepted, C. major. The external reproductive anatomy of these ghost shrimps was shown to be distinct between males, with circular gonopores located in the fifth pair of pereiopods, and females with ova...

Abstract:
Background: Atherosclerosis is a systemic inflammatory disease characterized by the formation of atheromatous plaques within arteries. These plaques can be classified as unstable or stable based on their morphology and cellular infiltrate. Anatomical location of plaques and age of atheroma defines the symptoms of disease. However, there is little in the literature to support this. The study aimed to compare the cellular composition, morphology, lipid biochemistry and 18F- flurodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positive emission tomography (PET) uptake between plaques from patients with recently symptomatic carotid disease and patients with symptomatic peripheral arterial disease undergoing intervention. Patients and Method Patients with symptomatic carotid (≥60%) or femoral stenosis undergoing intervention were recruited. All patients underwent 18F-FDG PET scanning prior to operation. The numbers of plaque macrophage and T cells were determined by immunohistochemistry (IHC). Double IHC defined the proportion of classically (M1) activated macrophages (iNOS, MHC II and SOCS-3 positive) or alternatively (M2) activated (dectin-1, CD163; SOCS-1). Plaque composition was quantified by a new morphological definition based on percentage area of fibrooconnective tissue, lipid, calcification and cellular infiltrate. The proportion of fatty acids within plaque lipids was estimated by liquid chromatography. Results 34 patients with symptomatic carotid disease and 34 with symptomatic femoral disease were recruited. 18F-FDG PET imaging was carried out successfully in 29 carotid and 29 femoral artery disease patients. 32 carotid and 25 femoral plaques were obtained. Significant differences were noted between carotid and femoral plaques with respect to the number of macrophages (p<0.001), T cells (p<0.001) and proportion of classical (p<0.001) and alternatively (p<0.001) activated macrophages and morphological analysis with evidence of more inflammation in carotid plaques. Lipid analysis revealed higher triglyceride n-6 PUFAs in carotid compared to femoral plaques (p=0.01). FDG uptake between carotid and femoral plaques was not significantly different and did not correlate with immunohistochemical, plaque morphometry or lipid analysis parameters. FDG uptake correlated with degree of symptomatic carotid stenosis (Spearman‟s coefficient=0.482;p=0.008) and symptomatic ABPI (Spearman‟s coefficient=-0.414;p=0.025). FDG uptake was higher in the symptomatic carotid compared to the contralateral asymptomatic carotid (p=0.016). Conclusion This study has shown substantial difference between morphological and cellular compositions of carotid and femoral plaques. Carotid plaques from recently symptomatic patients exhibited significantly greater percentage areas of lipid deposition, lymphocytic and monocyte/macrophage infiltrate and reduced cap thickness, in line with their more vulnerable nature. Moreover, there were a greater proportion of classically activated macrophages that are associated with plaque vulnerability. In contrast, percentage areas of fibroconnective tissue were higher in the femoral plaques. 18F-FDG PET imaging, although capable of identifying plaque inflammation, may not be adequately sensitive to differentiate between vulnerable and stable complex plaques.

Abstract:
Polysynthetic verb morphology can be extraordinarily complex, with interacting subsystems arranged in phonological and morphological layers, some of which are more readily transparent on the synchronic level. Historical-linguistic comparisons demonstrate that this type of structure can be surprisingly persistent across time, with slow phonological attrition being one of the primary causal agents. Metathesis and reanalysis of morphemes and morpheme positions was also noted as an important agent of change. This chapter examines what is known about the historical layering of two distinct, but possibly genealogically related prefixing verb morphologies: Yeniseian and Athabaskan, both of which have developed different strategies of expressing agreement with subjects and objects, layering these grammatical markers between lexical morphemes and markers of tense–mood–aspect. Phonological fusing of certain sets of adjacent markers renders the pre-root portions of both morphological templates particularly challenging for assigning morpheme glosses. Historical reasons for this evolution are identified and assessed.

Abstract:
This chapter examines phonological, morphological, lexical, and syntactic data from a number of contemporary Arabic varieties spoken within historical Yemen—i.e. within the borders of current Yemen and up into southern ˁAsīr in Saudi Arabia—with (a) data from the Ancient South Arabian language, Sabaic; (b) what has been called ‘Ḥimyaritic’, as spoken during the early centuries of Islam; and (c) the Modern South Arabian languages, Mehri and Śḥerɛ̄t. These comparisons show a significant number of shared features. The density of shared features and the nature of sharing exhibited lead to the tentative suggestion that some of these varieties may be continuations of South Arabian with an Arabic overlay rather than Arabic with a South Arabian substratum.

Abstract:
This chapter summarizes historical and modern approaches to fungal taxonomy, the current taxonomic standing of medically important fungi, and the implications for fungal nomenclature following the recent Amsterdam Declaration on Fungal Nomenclature, which prohibits dual nomenclature. Fungi comprise an entire kingdom, containing an estimated 1–10 million species. Traditionally, fungal identification was based on examination of morphological and phenotypic features, including the type of sexual spores they form, and method of formation, and structural features of their asexual spores. Thus, many fungi have been described and named independently several times based on either their sexual or asexual stages, resulting in a single genetic entity having multiple names. Recent molecular approaches to fungal identification have led to profound changes in fungal nomenclature and taxonomy. Certain phyla have now been disbanded, cryptic species have been identified via molecular approaches, and long-recognized species have been transferred to new genera based on genotypic comparisons.

This chapter addresses the problem of classifying formally ambiguous bare forms. It illustrates with analysis of three typologically distinct language pairs involving isolating recipients (Wolof, Fongbe, and Igbo) that feature virtually no overt morphology on the noun, obviating the morphological criterion for loanword integration. Here the appeal is to the syntax of nouns and noun phrases, focusing on their variable distribution across different types of modification structure. This expands and systematizes the comparisons of chapters 4 and 5 by considering in greater detail not just the rates of occurrence of a diagnostic but also its variable structure. Regardless of language pair, the overwhelming majority of lone donor-language nouns display quantitative parallels to their relevant recipient-language counterparts in ways far too specific to be random. At the same time, they pattern differently from nouns in unmixed donor-language contexts. This reveals that the donor-language nouns have been borrowed and integrated into different recipients.

Abstract:
This chapter uses especially cases of suppletion in the history of Romance languages to illustrate the role of morphomic patterns in diachrony. It also places Romance verb morphology in the wider context of Romance inflexional morphology, including those of the noun and of the adjective. It observes that suppletion practically never assumes anything but a morphomic distribution and is practically limited to the verb. Comparison is made with some Italo-Romance and Daco-Romance varieties where suppletion is indeed (occasionally) found in the noun and adjective (and is usually not morphomic). The evidence suggests that speakers, faced with different ways of expressing identical lexical meaning, exploit whatever patterns of root allomorphy happen to be already available in the language. In the Romance verb these are only morphomic; in the noun and adjective such patterns are scarcely found at all, but where they are they tend to be aligned with number.

Abstract:
Abstract The recent development of the Enriched Analytical Solution Method (EASM) for evaluating the spatio-temporal distribution of the temperature fields generated during the Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) Additive Manufacturing (AM) processes is provides an opportunity to study the sensitivity of the morphological parameters characterizing the associated melt-pools as a function of process parameters. The present work exercises the EASM for the case of a single-path trace over a 316L base plate under LPBF heat deposition conditions. To assist in the evaluation of solidification parameters, the spatial derivatives of the EASM are also derived. A process parameter subspace spanned by the scan velocity and the laser power is considered and the EASM is utilized for deriving a number of geometrical morphological characteristics of the melt pool as well as the quantities controlling the evolution of the solidification front. Finally, comparisons with initial experimental results obtained by in-situ high speed synchrotron X-ray imaging, capturing the spatio-temporal evolution of the melt pool profile are also presented.

Abstract:
The meniscus is comprised of two semilunar disks resting between the articular surface of the tibial plateaus and femoral condyles within the knee joint of each leg [1–3]. Both the medial and lateral menisci play a vital role in maintaining the joint’s integrity by distributing loads, stabilizing and lubricating the joint, and proprioceptive functions [2,3]. While the meniscus is found in many animals, morphological variations are present between species, indicating differences in the biomechanics of the joint [1,2]. These anatomical variations have not been quantified and, thus, remain unlinked to further structural changes that occur with injury. The goals of this study were aimed towards characterizing the normal lapine meniscal tissue using regional comparisons for tissue area and cell density measurements. The preliminary data from this research will be used as a comparison against future animal injury models. It was hypothesized that a difference would be observed between anterior, central, and posterior divisions in the normal lapine meniscus.

Abstract:
Abstract Over the past decade, photogrammetry has grown considerably thanks to technical advances in digital cameras and computing performance. Popular in terrestrial applications with the development of UAV acquisition, photogrammetry provides access to accurate scene reconstruction, high-resolution measurements, and temporal comparisons with a wide range of geolocated and scaled 2D and 3D supports. Nowadays, photogrammetry represents a particular challenge in the underwater field such as environmental monitoring, marine construction, technical inspection, and archaeology. Our study aims to develop underwater acquisition protocols and new tools for marine resources surveys and management to understand the role of 3D characteristics in both coral reefs and artificial structures. Two specific protocols were designed and optimized to reconstruct from coral colonies to coral reefs and artificial structures (up to 500m²) with a mean resolution of 0.05cm/pixel. Here several quantitative descriptors based on 2D and 3D metrics (such as slope, length, surface, volume, rugosity) were calculated for morphological studies and temporal comparisons. The photogrammetric technique now offers higher quality and accuracy tools compared to traditional survey methods. These advantages make possible to access to new scientific surveys of underwater ecosystems and as environmental management tools may prove to be valuable for future.

Abstract:
Typologies play a role in urban studies since a long time, but definitions are often rather abstract, ill-defined and at worst end in fixed stereotypes hiding underlying spatial complexity. Traditional typologies are focussing on separate elements, which allow for understanding crucial differences of one spatial feature in greater detail, but lack the capacity to capture the interrelation between elements. Further, they often focus on one scale level and therefore lack to acknowledge for interscalarity. Recent publications define morphological typologies based on quantitative variables, building on the seminal book ´Urban Space and Structures´ by Martin and March, published in 1972, but using more advanced spatial analysis and statistics. These approaches contribute to the discussion of types in two ways: firstly, they define types in a precise and repeatable manner allowing for city-scale comparisons; secondly, they acknowledge cross-scale dynamics important for e.g. living qualities and economic processes where not only the local conditions are important, but also the qualities in proximity. This paper focuses on the comparison of building types in three Swedish cities, using the multi-variable and multi-scalar density definition. A statistical clustering method is used to classify cases according to their measured similarity across the scales. The results show that working with types is a fruitful way to reveal the individual identity of these types, compare cities and highlight some differences in the way the three cities are structured.

Abstract:
The objective of this work is to describe and discuss a design process organization approach named ‘Solution-Focused Design’. This method has been created and used successfully for AMV, Ship and Offshore Platform Design over the last ten years with reasonable advantages. It was first created in a context were the decision of what concept to be adopted supersedes the use of the classical design spiral, suggesting a combination of the spiral with morphological charts, since the design processes of the concurring concepts are completely different from each other. The advantages are in terms of allowing for the introduction of creative ideas into the Conceptual Design process, eventually leading to an innovative product or design solution, establishing a sound design sequence and rationalizing the search for design tools and knowledge, parameter and task organization and classification (free variables, restrictions, performance specifications) and the design process itself. In this work the Solution-Focused Design process is described and compared to some usual ones, which normally rely on ‘problem-focused’ strategies for problem solving. It is shown how the process evolves from a pre-established scenario and a design briefing or specification to a Design Methodology. This is done in brainstorming sessions, using sketches and interactive design flowcharts (similar to design spirals), adapted for this approach. The objective is to provide the designer with means to define quickly and efficiently the optimal configuration of the design, while incorporating novelties into it. In order to show some features of the approach, three different examples of designs previously developed are presented: one for a SPAR Buoy Platform, other for an FPSO, and another for the feasibility and concept of a ‘fully submersible semi-displacement fast boat’, with morphological comparisons of different concepts of means of support in the later.

Regenerating historic Tripoli: urban form, problems and potential Mr. Almabrok Alakhal Almabrok.Alakhal@mail.bcu.ac.uk Keywords: Urban regeneration, Urban form, Changing pattern of urban form, Tripoli. Conference topics and scale : Urban morphological methods and techniques. Abstract This paper examines the impact of change, particularly Modernism, on a traditional Islamic urban core: the historic centre of Tripoli. It begins by discussing the historical background of Tripoli, identifying the key periods of urban change and growth through the evidence of historic documentation, maps, photographs and sketches. It focuses on the impact of Modernism, introduced during the Italian colonial period, identifying the nature, scale and speed of change – to the physical environment (streets, plots, buildings, land uses) and social environment (uses and occupiers). This allows the identification of key problems facing the present-day historic city. The paper then identifies examples of upgrading and urban regeneration projects for urban corridors, street networks and public spaces, drawing on local, national and international comparisons, for evaluating quality, and impact on urban form and design. Finally, it discusses the implications for future urban form. References : Development, A.D (2010), Project of rehabilitation of the old city of Tripoli, Code of the old Tripoli city.
