Baked beans in the knee? An odd-looking synovial swelling in the knee joint.

Sabnis BM, Barrett D.Author information Department of Orthopaedics, Southampton General Hospital, Southampton, Hampshire, UK. bhushanmsabnis@gmail.comAbstractLipoma arborescens (LA) is a rare benign neoplasm affecting large synovial joints, most commonly seen in the knee joint. Unlike other common swellings around the knee joint, LA is intra-articular and can lead to degenerative changes in the knee joint due to mechanical impingement. The importance of correct diagnosis with characteristic MR and macroscopic appearance and appropriate surgical treatment is outlined in this case report.

Host-parasite coevolution beyond the nestling stage? Mimicry of host fledglings by the specialist screaming cowbird.

De Mársico MC, Gantchoff MG, Reboreda JC.Author information Departamento de Ecología, Genética y Evolución, Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales, Universidad de Buenos Aires, Ciudad Universitaria, Pabellón II, C1428EGA, Buenos Aires, Argentina. de_marsico@ege.fcen.uba.arAbstractEgg mimicry by obligate avian brood parasites and host rejection of non-mimetic eggs are well-known textbook examples of host-parasite coevolution. By contrast, reciprocal adaptations and counteradaptations beyond the egg stage in brood parasites and their hosts have received less attention. The screaming cowbird (Molothrus rufoaxillaris) is a specialist obligate brood parasite whose fledglings look identical to those of its primary host, the baywing (Agelaioides badius). Such a resemblance has been proposed as an adaptation in response to host discrimination against odd-looking young, but evidence supporting this idea is scarce. Here, we examined this hypothesis by comparing the survival rates of young screaming cowbirds and non-mimetic shiny cowbirds (Molothrus bonariensis) cross-fostered to baywing nests and quantifying the similarity in plumage colour and begging calls between host and cowbird fledglings. Shiny cowbirds suffered higher post-fledging mortality rates (83%) than screaming cowbirds (0%) owing to host rejection. Visual modelling revealed that screaming cowbirds, but not shiny cowbirds, were indistinguishable from host young in plumage colour. Similarly, screaming cowbirds matched baywings' begging calls more closely than shiny cowbirds. Our results strongly support the occurrence of host fledgling mimicry in screaming cowbirds and suggest a role of visual and vocal cues in fledgling discrimination by baywings.

越境するエレガンス : コムデギャルソンをめぐる魂の現象学の試み

仁愛大学研究紀要 2, 41-55, 2004-03-31
魂とは, ひとそれぞれの個性や来歴とわかちがたくむすびついた, 心の「機微」や「深み」のことである. そうした魂の存在に気づくとき, われわれの意識は, 自我 (現実世界を合理的・意志的に生きる主体) から, 魂へとシフトする. そして魂の観点をもつようになった意識は, 世界の魂 (美) に開かれていく. 魂の現象学とは, そうした人間と世界の両者の魂の現象に即して, そこにみられる論理をたしかな …
