Abstract
Many women who experience intimate partner violence seek the expertise of psychologists to support their healing. However, there is a gap in the research about what women want from their psychologists. We interviewed 20 women survivors who had seen psychologists. Using reflexive thematic analysis, we constructed three themes: see all of me, see me for my expertise, and don't impose an agenda on me. We found that often psychologists acted as experts imposing their own agendas, rather than supporting survivors to make their own decisions. We discuss this in relation to the link between knowledge and power through dominant social science discourses and explore how resistance to this dominant discourse was taken up by many women.

Abstract
Technology-facilitated abuse in relationships (TAR) is a widespread social problem that has a significant impact on victim-survivors. Most contemporary evidence on TAR focuses on victim-survivor and practitioner perspectives rather than those of perpetrators who choose to enact this form of harm. Addressing this deficit, this study explored perpetrators' discourses on emotions and motivations associated with engaging in TAR. Using story completion method, 35 self-identified perpetrators of TAR completed story stems describing scenarios that may precede the use of abusive online behaviors. Reflexive thematic analysis generated three themes. Abusive behaviors and negative emotions speaks to maladaptive experiences of anger and/or sadness that can precede a decision to use TAR. A loss of trust, a desire for control describes potential motives for using TAR. Finally, inhibitors of abusive behavior investigates rationales perpetrators use for avoidance of TAR behaviors, suggesting avenues for working with perpetrators to refrain from using TAR. We conclude by discussing policy, practice, and research recommendations including strategies for technology designers and suggestions for primary prevention and response to TAR.

Abstract
Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a complex and multifaceted problem gaining increasing attention within mental health research and practice. IPV explanations focus on both individual and systemic levels; however, it is increasingly acknowledged that a single level explanation may not be sufficient. The practices of clinical disciplines may, however, still privilege an explanation at one level over another, which will influence how they work with clients. It is likely that one such clinical group, psychologists, may play a critical role in helping victim-survivors to understand and explain their experiences of IPV. However, we were unable to find any studies focusing on women's perceptions of psychologists' role in this. Additionally, we know little about women victim-survivors' perceptions of why their partners use IPV. To address these gaps, the research question for this study was: What explanations resonate during counseling for women in understanding their partner's abuse? To explore this question, 20 women who had seen psychologists after experiencing IPV participated in semi-structured interviews. The interviews were analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis and three themes constructed from the data. The first two themes, narcissist description was helpful and not all bad all the time, showed that the women found it powerful in their healing processes when psychologists offered the opportunity to discuss their partners individual characteristics as explanations for their use of IPV. The third theme, structural explanations, showed that some of the women also reflected on wider structural contexts. Implications for clinical practice include the potential healing effect when practitioners can move along a continuum of explanation levels, covering both the inner and outer worlds. Implications for research into IPV perpetration are that women hold expertise and insight into individual perpetrators and could make valuable contributions to this field.

Abstract
AIM To compare faecal loading on plain radiography versus radio-opaque marker transit studies in the assessment of constipation. METHODS The study group was a convenience sample of patients attending the Durham Constipation Clinic. All patients underwent transit studies according to an established protocol, and severity of constipation was assessed contemporaneously using a validated questionnaire (PAC-SYM). Transit studies were performed using radio-opaque markers that were ingested over 3 consecutive days, with a radiograph taken on the fourth day. Digital images of the radiograph were digitally altered to remove all traces of the transit markers without affecting the underlying pattern of faecal loading. Four observers assessed faecal loading independently; two clinicians (C1 and C2) and two radiologists (R1 and R2). C1 and R1 used a previously described formal scoring method of assessing faecal loading, whereas C2 and R2 assessed the images as if they were in a clinic or reporting session, grading the faecal loading as mild, moderate, or severe. RESULTS One hundred patients were recruited out of 186 presenting in a 2-year period. All patients completed assessments. The correlation between observers was only fair to moderate (r ranging from 0.34-0.51). There were some surprisingly marked disagreements in 10-18% of assessments. The correlation between faecal loading and transit was weak for all observers (r ranging from 0.261-0.311). Symptom severity did not correlate with faecal loading. CONCLUSION These results suggest that there is considerable inter-observer variation in the radiological assessment of faecal loading, irrespective of the training or method used by the observer, and that there is very poor correlation with colonic transit. The diagnosis of constipation, and the assessment of severity, is best performed clinically.

Abstract
The absorption of isophane(NPH) insulin (Human Insulatard) from palpably abnormal thigh insulin injection sites was determined in 10 C-peptide negative diabetic patients. Absorption was compared with a control day study when the insulin was injected into normal thigh. Standard meals were given 30 and 240 min after the injection. Within 2 weeks the tissue morphology and adipose tissue depths at both injection sites were assessed by ultrasound scanning. Absorption of isophane(NPH) insulin was markedly defective from the abnormal compared with the normal injection sites (area under the free insulin curve to 10 h 115 +/- 15 vs 188 +/- 21 mU l-1 h; p less than 0.01). The area under the blood glucose curve from 270 min to the end of the study at 600 min was significantly greater after injection into the palpably abnormal injection site compared with normal thigh (80.4 +/- 5.2 vs 61.2 +/- 7.0 mmol l-1 h; p less than 0.05) representing a 22% improvement in blood glucose control on the normal injection site afternoon. The depth of abnormal injection site tissue was significantly greater than the depth of adipose tissue at the control site (17 +/- 6 vs 5 +/- 4 mm; p less than 0.001) and considerable disruption of the normal anatomy observed. These results demonstrate defective absorption of isophane(NPH) insulin from palpably abnormal injection sites and describe the morphology of the abnormal tissue.

Abstract
Poliovirus type 1 neurovirulence is difficult to analyze because of the 56 mutations which differentiate the neurovirulent Mahoney strain from the attenuated Sabin strain. We have isolated four neurovirulent mutants which differ from the temperature-sensitive parental Sabin 1 strain by only a few mutations, using selection for temperature resistance: mutant S(1)37C1 was isolated at 37.5 degrees C, S(1)38C5 was isolated at 38.5 degrees C, and S(1)39C6 and S(1)39C10 were isolated at 39.5 degrees C. All four mutants had a positive reproductive capacity at supraoptimal temperature (Rct+ phenotype). Mutant S(1)37C1 induced paralysis in two of four cynomolgus monkeys, and the three other mutants induced paralysis in four of four monkeys. The lesion score increased from the S(1)37C1 mutant to the S(1)39 mutants. To map the mutations associated with thermoresistance and neurovirulence, we sequenced all regions in which the Sabin 1 genome differs from the Mahoney genome. The S(1)37C1 mutant had one mutation in the 5' noncoding region and another in the 3' noncoding region. Mutant S(1)38C5 had these mutations plus another mutation in the 3D polymerase gene. The S(1)39 mutants had three additional mutations in the capsid protein region. The mutations were located at positions at which the Sabin 1 and Mahoney genomes differ, except for the mutation in the 5' noncoding region. The noncoding-region mutations apparently confer a low degree of neurovirulence. The 3D polymerase mutation, which distinguishes S(1)38C5 and S(1)39 mutants from S(1)37C1, is probably responsible for the high neurovirulence of S(1)38C5 and S(1)39 mutants. The capsid region mutations may contribute to the neurovirulence of the S(1)39 mutants, which was the highest among the mutants.

Abstract
Using in situ hybridization techniques for viral RNA and employing a specific riboprobe, we have detected virus in neural cells of monkeys infected with poliovirus type 1 (PV-1) by the intraspinal route. In monkeys paralysed after inoculation of a neurovirulent revertant of PV-1/Sabin strain, viral RNA was detected in motor neurons and their processes, and in polymorphonuclear and small neural cells. Quantitative in situ hybridization provided evidence of viral replication in individual cells suggesting that the death of motor neurons was due to the direct effect of poliovirus replication in these cells. The histological study of neural lesions of monkeys paralysed after infection with the attenuated Sabin strain of PV-1 revealed two major differences compared to monkeys infected with a virulent strain: (i) the number of destroyed motor neurons was reduced and limited to the site of inoculation and (ii) the inflammatory reaction was localized but more intense. An account is given of the difference in histopathology induced by virulent and attenuated strains of PV-1 in the central nervous system.

Abstract
Isolates of type 3 poliovirus from vaccine-recipients were characterized in terms of virulence, sensitivity of growth to high temperatures, and differences in genome structure from the Sabin type 3 vaccine strain. These included point mutations in the region of the genome coding for the structural proteins and in the 5' noncoding region, and the presence of type 1 or type 2 poliovirus genomic sequences resulting from intertypic recombination. Isolates from healthy vaccinees resembled those from vaccine-associated cases of poliomyelitis in all of these properties. Suppression of the temperature-sensitive phenotype was strictly correlated with reversion to virulence in nonrecombinant type 3 strains. Recombinant isolates were more attenuated than expected, even when they had lost all mutations known to attenuate the type 3 vaccine strain.

Abstract
The poliovirus type 3 Sabin oral poliovirus vaccine strain P3/Leon/12a1b differs in nucleotide sequence from its neurovirulent progenitor P3/Leon/37 by just 10 point mutations. The contribution of each mutation to the attenuation phenotype of the vaccine strain was determined by the construction of a series of recombinant viruses from infectious cDNA clones. The neurovirulence testing of recombinant viruses indicated that the attenuation phenotype is determined by just two point mutations: a C to U in the noncoding region at position 472 and a C to U at nucleotide 2034 which results in a serine-to-phenylalanine amino acid substitution in the structural protein VP3.

Abstract
Mouse-lethal toxin identified as that of Clostridium botulinum type C by antitoxin neutralization was present in cultures of 38.0% of 326 soil samples collected from 28 wetlands in Saskatchewan. There was no difference in prevalence of toxicity between samples collected in spring and summer, and no relationship was evident between the occurrence of toxicity and water salinity, marsh type or water depth. There was a strong association between the prior occurrence of avian botulism in a marsh and the presence of toxin in cultures from soil; 59.2% of soil samples from marshes with a known history of botulism produced toxin, whereas only 6.2% of soil samples from marshes with no history of the disease produced toxin. Eight of the 10 soil samples collected from a marsh that had been dry for several years, and from another marsh that had not had a recognized outbreak of botulism for 11 yr produced toxin, indicating a long residual effect after a botulism outbreak. The results suggest that any wetland with a history of botulism is likely to suffer repeated occurrences because of heavy contamination of the soil with spores, and should be managed to control the disease.
