In particular, the paper will report the asymmetric Fabry-Perot modulator/detector (AFPM), functioning not only as an optical modulator in the uplink direction, but also as a conventional photodetector in the downlink direction in a single device. Compared to the existing waveguide type electro-absorption modulator, the AFPM is polarisation-insensitive to light, simpler to fabricate and uses only a single optical fibre for both uplink and downlink transmissions, and therefore has the potential to lower the costs of future picocell deployments. Direct modulation of a semiconductor laser is the simplest way to generate modulated optical signals. In the presence of multiple large modulation signals, however, intermodulation or inter-channel distortion can easily be generated in the semiconductor laser and affect other lower power neighbouring channels. A feed-forward linearisation technique for directly modulated semiconductor lasers, capable of operating at frequencies above 5 GHz, has been developed and will be described in detail in this paper. Most modern commercial buildings already have a multimode optical fibre (MMF) infrastructure for carrying the Ethernet data. To provide cost-effective and reliable indoor cellular and wireless local area network (WLAN) coverage without dependence on the radio penetration from outside base-stations, it is highly desirable that the same MMF infrastructure be used to carry these additional services between the equipment room and the remote antenna units around the building. Although not previously regarded as having sufficient bandwidth, it has now been shown that MMF can successfully carry microwave modulated optical signals, including GSM1800 and UMTS cellular radio. Use of MMF for multiservice, multioperator in-building radio coverage has been demonstrated in a collaboration between UCL and the University of Cambridge and will be described in this paper. As the number of cellular and broadband WLAN devices increases, the lower parts of the radio spectrum are becoming more and more congested. To meet the demand for ever higher data transmission rates, other parts of the radio spectrum are being considered for these applications, particularly the millimetre-wave region (30 GHz and above). One of the challenges facing such systems is the generation and delivery of a low phase noise precisely synchronised local oscillator signal. In this paper, a simple optical heterodyne source with two injection locked slave lasers and a more environmentally robust source using an optical injection phase lock loop will be described, together with signal distribution using a bidirectional semiconductor optical amplifier in a coarse wavelength division multiplex fibre ring architecture. Finally it will be argued in the conclusions that future broadband wireless-over-fibre access networks will be required to provide multiservice and multi-operator coverage for buildings, and having the required technologies at sufficiently low cost will be the key factor to success.

Computational biology, through pragmatic modelling and theoretical exploration, provides a powerful foundation from which to address critical scientific questions head-on. The reviews in this Insight cover many different aspects of this energetic field, although all, in one way or another, illuminate the functioning of modular circuits, including their robustness, design and manipulation. Computational systems biology addresses questions fundamental to our understanding of life, yet progress here will lead to practical innovations in medicine, drug discovery and engineering.

Recent work on the self-assembly of complex polymer systems shows that the formation of polymer vesicles or closed hull structures is archetypal, leading to fascinating new possibilities and applications in materials science. A general view of the underlying self-assembly mechanisms leading to vesicles and the control of size, shape, and other vesicular properties by physicochemical means is presented, as background. This is followed by an overview of the recently described new classes of polymer and supramolecular tectons that make vesicle formation a more general phenomenon going beyond just lipids.

Four children were diagnosed with spastic diplegia (Gross Motor Function Classification System [GMFCS] level II) and two with spastic hemiplegia (GMFCS level I). A single-subject, multiple-baseline experimental design involving three pairs of children matched for diagnosis was used. A moveable forceplate system was used to test and train reactive balance control. Area per second (i.e. area covered by the center of pressure over a one second period) and time to stabilization from center of pressure measures were calculated following perturbations. The intervention phase consisted of massed practice on the moving platform (100 perturbations/day for 5 days). Analysis included hierarchical linear modeling and a repeated measures ANOVA. All children demonstrated a significant improvement in their ability to recover stability as demonstrated by reduced center of pressure area and time to stabilization following training. These improvements were still present 30 days following completion of training. Results suggest that postural control mechanisms in school-age children (7 to 13 years) with CP are modifiable.

The aims of the study were to monitor hip development by serial X-rays; to record gross locomotor development, aspects of physical management, and any hip-related orthotics or surgery; to learn more of the natural history of hip development in this condition; and to provide guidelines for a surveillance protocol for those clinically managing children with bilateral CP. Children were X-rayed at 18, 24, 30, 48, and 60 months. X-rays were taken in a standardized position and measured to record migration percentage, acetabular index, Sharp's angle, and Smith's diaphyseal ratios. Relationships between the measures were investigated and a natural history of the children's hip development suggested. At as early as 18 months, migration percentages were significantly greater than in the normally developing population, although no measured CP factor could be identified to be the cause of this early change. Two possible factors affecting early hip development are described, neither of which is clinically apparent: the first separates the bilateral CP population as a whole from the normal population; but there is an additional presdisposing factor affecting some children only which in the presence of the motor disorder, has a significant influence on early hip development and subsequent dysplasia. The study confirms that, when measured correctly, migration percentage is the best guide to hip surveillance and the need for treatment. It is suggested that all children with bilateral CP should be X-rayed in a standardized position at 30 months (corrected for gestational age).

First, the authors provide a rationale for conducting research focused on culturally sensitive health care and then offer definitions of patient-centered culturally sensitive health care and related terms, drawing from both the health care and counseling psychology literatures. In addition, the authors address the broader question of how factors such as culturally sensitive health care influence health outcomes through an analysis of psychosocial mechanisms of health. Finally, the authors outline how counseling psychologists' expertise in a variety of areas can be applied to the medical field, and they briefly summarize progress that the field of counseling psychology has already made to this end. 10.1177/0011000007301672 Culturally Sensitive Health Care and Counseling Psychology: An Overview Keith Herman Carolyn Tucker Lisa Ferdinand Anca Mirsu-Paun Nadia Hasan Cristina Beato doi:10.1177/0011000007301672 The Counseling Psychologist, Vol. 35, No. 5.

Among the tools that can aid researchers in coping with this information overload are text mining and knowledge extraction. Significant progress has been made in applying text mining to named entity recognition, text classification, terminology extraction, relationship extraction and hypothesis generation. Several research groups are constructing integrated flexible text-mining systems intended for multiple uses. The major challenge of biomedical text mining over the next 5-10 years is to make these systems useful to biomedical researchers. This will require enhanced access to full text, better understanding of the feature space of biomedical literature, better methods for measuring the usefulness of systems to users, and continued cooperation with the biomedical research community to ensure that their needs are addressed.

This inability to spot changes ("change blindness") is the focus of this special issue of Visual Cognition . This introductory paper briefly reviews recent studies of change blindness, noting the relation of these findings to earlier research and discussing the inferences we can draw from them. Most explanations of change blindness assume that we fail to detect changes because the changed display masks or overwrites the initial display. Here I draw a distinction between intentional and incidental change detection tasks and consider how alternatives to the "overwriting" explanation may provide better explanations for change blindness.

Nevertheless, they are often infeasible to conduct for a variety of reasons, such as ethical concerns, excessive expense, or timeliness. Consequently, much of our knowledge of causal effects must come from non-randomized observational studies. This article will advocate the position that observational studies can and should be designed to approximate randomized experiments as closely as possible.

Correlation does not imply causation, and yet causal conclusions drawn from a carefully designed experiment are often valid. What can a statistical model say about causation? This question is addressed by using a particular model for causal inference (Holland and Rubin 1983; Rubin 1974) to critique the discussions of other writers on causation and causal inference. These include selected philosophers, medical researchers, statisticians, econometricians, and proponents of causal modeling.

The last is favoured as the basis for causal analysis in sociology. It allows the respective roles of statistics and theory to be clarified and is appropriate to sociology as a largely non-experimental social science in which the concept of action is central. 10.1093/esr/17.1.1 Causation, Statistics, and Sociology John Goldthorpe doi:10.1093/esr/17.1.1 Eur Sociol Rev, Vol. 17, No. 1.

It begins with a detailed analysis of causality statements in Durkheim's Le suicide. It then discusses the history of causality assumptions in sociological writing since the 1930s, with brief remarks about the related discipline of econometrics. The author locates the origins of causal argument in a generation of brilliant and brash young sociologists with a model and a mission and then briefly considers the history of causality concepts in modern philosophy. The article closes with reflections on the problems created for sociology by the presumption that causal accounting is the epitome of explanation within the discipline. It is argued that sociology should spend more effort on (and should better reward) descriptive work. 10.1177/0049124198027002002 The Causal Devolution Andrew Abbott doi:10.1177/0049124198027002002 Sociological Methods Research, Vol. 27, No. 2.

A new analysis was made to explore the relationship between prawn catch in 1985–2001 in 37 countries and mangrove abundance, using the principal components–regression approach. Principal components reduced mangrove abundance and other predictor variables (latitude, tidal amplitude, coastline length, population size, rainfall, and temperature) to four orthogonal principal components, accounting for 78% of the overall data variation. Representation of mangrove abundance in both absolute (total area of mangroves) and relative (mangrove area standardized against length of coastline) terms also helps elucidate the effect of mangrove abundance on prawn catch. Regression analysis with prawn catch using these four principal components suggests that the extent of intertidal areas and organic matter availability as represented by tidal amplitude rather than relative mangrove abundance per se have a stronger influence on prawn catch in tropical nearshore environments. This approach avoids some of the common problems of past analyses, such as multi-collinearity of the predictor variables.
