TL;DR: It is hypothesized that the dialysis procedure itself may have important implications for SCD, and recognition that hemodialysis is associated with both ventricular arrhythmias and dynamic electrocardiographic changes, may show changes that are modifiable by alterations to dialysis prescription.

TL;DR: A novel ecological and hydraulic remediation technique has been proposed, which integrated the advantages of chemical elution, solidification and stabilisation, phytoremediation and field management, and shows great potential for large area applications.

TL;DR: It is argued that the interactionist research tradition does show a fundamental concern with power phenomena, and that a reconsideration of the concept is timely in light of theoretical developments in sociology more generally.
Abstract: Symbolic interactionism is often represented as a perspective which is limited by its restriction to 'micro' aspects of social organization. As such, it is allegedly unable to adequately conceptualize 'macro' phenomena such as social structure, patterns of inequality, and power. Such a view is routinely presented in undergraduate textbooks. This paper contests such a view through a consideration of the concept of power. We argue that the interactionist research tradition does show a fundamental concern with power phenomena, and that a reconsideration of the concept is timely in light of theoretical developments in sociology more generally. An increasing concern with the analysis of culture, the continuing influence of Foucault, the development of feminist perspectives, and the emerging consensus around neo-Weberian thought have all contributed to a renewal of interest in themes long ago explored by interactionists. As examples we suggest that interactionist studies in the fields of deviance and education have been concerned above all with the authoritative imposition of consequential identities, i.e., with the social processes through which power is enacted and institutionalized in real situations. Such developments have led some to argue that interactionism has now been incorporated into the mainstream of sociology. We conclude, however, by arguing that such a view runs the risk of granting to orthodox sociological thought a legitimacy which is analytically unwarranted, and which fails to recognize the alternative theoretical and philosophical foundations of symbolic interactionist thought.

TL;DR: The authors examine the relationship of three dimensions of behavioral change measured by the Problem Behaviors Assessment for Huntington's Disease to cognitive and motor indices of disease severity to suggest certain behavioral alterations are intrinsic to the evolution and progression of HD.
Abstract: The authors examined the relationship of three dimensions of behavioral change (Apathy, Depression, and Irritability) measured by the Problem Behaviors Assessment for Huntington's Disease (PBA-HD) to cognitive and motor indices of disease severity. The Apathy subscale was highly correlated with both cognitive and motor impairment; the Irritability and Depression subscales were not. The findings suggest that certain behavioral alterations are intrinsic to the evolution and progression of HD, whereas others are more variable and are independent of other indices of disease progression.
