Letter from the Citizens of Ommen to the Governor of Overijssel

Sixteen citizens of Ommen sent a communication to the Governor of the Province that they saw no need for him to send a military detachment to Ommen now that the disturbances had ended. Besides, a relatively few people were the troublemakers. The billeting of military people will be a great burden to the citizens of Ommen.https://digitalcommons.hope.edu/vrp_1830s/1048/thumbnail.jp

De architectuur en beleving van de hermitage (1770-1860):De hut, de heremiet(pop) en de hang naar eenzaamheid in de Nederlandse landschapstuin

De hermitage is een weinig onderzocht en begrepen tuinsieraad. De hermitage als plek om je in terug te trekken kwam voor van de oudheid tot diep in de negentiende eeuw, omdat deze mensen in verschillende perioden aansprak en eenvoudig kon worden aangepast aan de specifieke wensen van de adellijke, religieuze of intellectuele eigenaar en de smaak van de tijd. Dit artikel presenteert nieuw onderzoek naar de hermitage op de Nederlandse buitenplaats, op basis van een analyse van verkoopadvertenties, primair bronnenonderzoek (voornamelijk reisbeschrijvingen) en literatuuronderzoek. De hermitage was een wijdverbreid fenomeen in Nederland. Met de huidige inventarisatie is het aantal bekende buitenplaats-hermitages bijna verdriedubbeld van 36 naar ruim honderd. Op basis van deze nieuwe, grotere dataset bleek het mogelijk met meer precisie uitspraken te doen over de periode waarin de hermitage populair was, over de verspreiding van de hermitage in Nederland, de locatie in de tuin, het uiterlijk en de betekenis van de hermitage. Door de zoektocht in digitaal ontsloten historische kranten zijn vooral de iets latere, kleinere hermitages ontdekt. Waar Gelderland voorheen werd beschouwd als de voornaamste hermitageprovincie, is dit beeld met de huidige stand van wetenschap gekanteld in het voordeel van Holland. De burgerlijke signatuur van de hermitage is hiermee versterkt: de hermitage kwam het meest voor op de buitenplaatsen van stedelijke regenten gelegen in de nabijheid van de stad. Hermitages werden in de beginjaren vooral gezien als rariteit, en later als vast onderdeel van een landschappelijk aangelegd park. Maar ze vormden nooit het meest belangrijke tuinsieraad van een landschapspark. Uit het onderzoek blijkt dat vrijwel altijd is gekozen voor een geïsoleerde ligging. Het interieur van de hermitages was sober en bestond in de regel uit een of meerdere stoelen, een bank of bed, een doodshoofd of doodskist, een zandloper, boeken en een (houten) heremietpop. Dat de inrichting van de hermitage sterk gestandaardiseerd was, blijkt ook uit evaluaties van kluizenaarshutten in reisverslagen. De populariteit van de hermitage suggereert dat Nederlanders zeker niet ongevoelig waren voor de Romantiek, zoals nog altijd vaak wordt aangenomen. Het feit dat de bronnen zo weinig bewijs leveren voor cynisme ten aanzien van het fenomeen van de hermitage en de heremiet bevestigt deze these. Tegelijkertijd voorzag de kluizenaarshut in een meer universele behoefte, in plaats van een romantische: door de tijd heen zijn er altijd vertrekken gecreëerd waar mensen – meestal uit de elite – zich konden terugtrekken. In die zin was de hermitage een pendant van het kabinet of de studio. Wat overbleef na het opdrogen van de verheven gevoelens en gedachten van de Romantiek, was de wandeling naar de hermitage en bij aankomst de rust en het uitzicht. De Nederlandse hermitage reflecteert in alles de Nederlandse buitenplaats: beide waren vooral burgerlijk, wijdverbreid, stedelijk, bescheiden in omvang en aankleding

`Composite particles' and the eigenstates of Calogero-Sutherland and Ruijsenaars-Schneider

We establish a one-to-one correspondance between the ''composite particles'' with $N$ particles and the Young tableaux with at most $N$ rows. We apply this correspondance to the models of Calogero-Sutherland and Ruijsenaars-Schneider and we obtain a momentum space representation of the ''composite particles'' in terms of creation operators attached to the Young tableaux. Using the technique of bosonisation, we obtain a position space representation of the ''composite particles'' in terms of products of vertex operators. In the special case where the ''composite particles'' are bosons and if we add one extra quasiparticle or quasihole, we construct the ground state wave functions corresponding to the Jain series $\nu =p/(2np\pm 1)$ of the fractional quantum Hall effect.Comment: latex calcomp2.tex, 5 files, 30 pages [SPhT-T99/080], submitted to J.

Tracheal agenesis: approach towards this severe diagnosis. Case report and review of the literature

Tracheal agenesis (TA) is a severe congenital disorder with often an unexpected emergency presentation. There is complete or partial absence of the trachea below the larynx, with presence or absence of a tracheoesophageal fistula (TOF). A neonate with TA is described, and another 48 cases found in literature are reviewed. Due to absence of a TOF, five cases were diagnosed prenatally because of congenital high airway obstruction syndrome (CHAOS). When a TOF is present, polyhydramnion and several other congenital malformations seen on the ultrasound examination should alert clinicians of potential tracheal problems. Prenatal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may provide a definitive diagnosis. Postnatal diagnosis is based on recognition of specific clinical signs in the newborn with TA: respiratory distress with breathing movement without appropriate air entry, no audible cry, and failed endotracheal intubation. Despite progress in surgical interventions, mortality remains high. Prenatal diagnosis of TA is possible, but only if a TOF is absent resulting in CHAOS. Prenatal diagnosis of polyhydramnion and other congenital malformation should alert clinicians of potential tracheal problems. Prenatal MRI may provide a definitive diagnosis

Design of a randomised controlled trial on immune effects of acidic and neutral oligosaccharides in the nutrition of preterm infants: carrot study

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Prevention of serious infections in preterm infants is a challenge, since prematurity and low birth weight often requires many interventions and high utility of devices. Furthermore, the possibility to administer enteral nutrition is limited due to immaturity of the gastrointestinal tract in the presence of a developing immune system. In combination with delayed intestinal bacterial colonisation compared with term infants, this may increase the risk for serious infections. Acidic and neutral oligosaccharides play an important role in the development of the immune system, intestinal bacterial colonisation and functional integrity of the gut. This trial aims to determine the effect of enteral supplementation of acidic and neutral oligosaccharides on infectious morbidity (primary outcome), immune response to immunizations, feeding tolerance and short-term and long-term outcome in preterm infants. In addition, an attempt is made to elucidate the role of acidic and neutral oligosaccharides in postnatal modulation of the immune response and postnatal adaptation of the gut.</p> <p>Methods/Design</p> <p>In a double-blind placebo controlled randomised trial, 120 preterm infants (gestational age <32 weeks and/or birth weight <1500 gram) are randomly allocated to receive enteral acidic and neutral oligosaccharides supplementation (20%/80%) or placebo supplementation (maltodextrin) between day 3 and 30 of life. Primary outcome is infectious morbidity (defined as the incidence of serious infections). The role of acidic and neutral oligosaccharides in modulation of the immune response is investigated by determining the immune response to DTaP-IPV-Hib(-HBV)+PCV7 immunizations, plasma cytokine concentrations, faecal Calprotectin and IL-8. The effect of enteral acidic and neutral oligosaccharides supplementation on postnatal adaptation of the gut is investigated by measuring feeding tolerance, intestinal permeability, intestinal viscosity, and determining intestinal microflora. Furthermore, short-term and long-term outcome are evaluated.</p> <p>Discussion</p> <p>Especially preterm infants, who are at increased risk for serious infections, may benefit from supplementation of prebiotics. Most studies with prebiotics only focus on the colonisation of the intestinal microflora. However, the pathways how prebiotics may influence the immune system are not yet fully understood. Studying the immune modulatory effects is complex because of the multicausal risk of infections in preterm infants. The combination of neutral oligosaccharides with acidic oligosaccharides may have an increased beneficial effect on the immune system. Increased insight in the effects of prebiotics on the developing immune system may help to decrease the (infectious) morbidity and mortality in preterm infants.</p> <p>Trial registration</p> <p>Current Controlled Trials ISRCTN16211826.</p

New Class of Non-Abelian Spin-Singlet Quantum Hall States

We present a new class of non-abelian spin-singlet quantum Hall states, generalizing Halperin's abelian spin-singlet states and the Read-Rezayi non-abelian quantum Hall states for spin-polarized electrons. We label the states by (k,M) with M odd (even) for fermionic (bosonic) states, and find a filling fraction $\nu=2k/(2kM+3)$. The states with M=0 are bosonic spin-singlet states characterized by an SU(3)_k symmetry. We explain how an effective Landau-Ginzburg theory for the SU(3)_2 state can be constructed. In general, the quasi-particles over these new quantum Hall states carry spin, fractional charge and non-abelian quantum statistics.Comment: LaTeX, 4 pages, no figures, final version, Phys. Rev.

Academic performance of children born preterm : a meta-analysis and meta-regression

Background: Advances in neonatal healthcare have resulted in decreased mortality after preterm birth but have not led to parallel decreases in morbidity. Academic performance provides insight in the outcomes and specific difficulties and needs of preterm children. Objective: To study academic performance in preterm children born in the antenatal steroids and surfactant era and possible moderating effects of perinatal and demographic factors. Design: PubMed, Web of Science and PsycINFO were searched for peer-reviewed articles. Cohort studies with a full-term control group reporting standardised academic performance scores of preterm children (<37 weeks of gestation) at age 5 years or older and born in the antenatal steroids and surfactant era were included. Academic test scores and special educational needs of preterm and full-term children were analysed using random effects meta-analysis. Random effects meta-regressions were performed to explore the predictive role of perinatal and demographic factors for between-study variance in effect sizes. Results: The 17 eligible studies included 2390 preterm children and 1549 controls. Preterm children scored 0.71 SD below full-term peers on arithmetic (p<0.001), 0.44 and 0.52 SD lower on reading and spelling (p<0.001) and were 2.85 times more likely to receive special educational assistance (95% CI 2.12 to 3.84, p<0.001). Bronchopulmonary dysplasia explained 44% of the variance in academic performance (p=0.006). Conclusion: Preterm children born in the antenatal steroids and surfactant era show considerable academic difficulties. Preterm children with bronchopulmonary dysplasia are at particular risk for poor academic outcome
