Study question: Do daughters of women with endometriosis exhibit an increased risk of endometriosis and impaired long-term reproductive prognosis when compared with daughters of women without endometriosis?
What is known already: Several studies have found an increased prevalence of endometriosis in sisters and mothers of women with endometriosis, but none have examined the long-term reproductive prognosis in daughters of these patients.
Participants/materials, setting, methods: Among women 15-49 years old during the period 1977-1982, 24 691 were diagnosed with endometriosis during the study period. These women were age matched to 98 764 women without endometriosis. Daughters of these two groups were followed until 31 December 2009 for an endometriosis diagnosis and reproductive outcomes. Women were excluded from the study at death or if they emigrated.
Limitations, reasons for caution: The most important limitation of the study was the lack of data concerning the attempt to become pregnant. Also, some women with endometriosis might never be diagnosed with the condition. This applies to both the control mothers and the control daughters, but also the daughters of mothers with endometriosis. Other limitations are lack of accounting for potential confounders and the lack of data on preterm birth. However, the influence of most confounding factors was expected to be minimal because of the close matching by age of controls.
Wider implications of the findings: The external validity of the study is expected to be high owing to the unselected inclusion criteria. The encouraging finding was that despite the increased risk of being diagnosed with endometriosis, daughters of women with endometriosis have a reproductive prognosis comparable with that of daughters of women without endometriosis.
Study funding/competing interest(s): The Department of Gynaecology at Rigshospitalet University Hospital, Copenhagen, covered all expenses of the study. .L. has, within the last 3 years, received honoraria for speeches in pharmacoepidemiological issues and has been expert witness in a legal US case in 2011-2012. None of the other authors have any conflicts of interest.
My daughter who is a college student took an InDesign file created by the publisher for our book, saved it as a new file, edited and replaced some of the art with higher resolution art. We sent it back to the publisher and they are asking us to fix this issue, however we are novice at InDesign. This is the publishers communication back to us:
Bad endnote link. Deleting the contents of the endnotes text frame cures the export problem. Job now is to delete and reconstruct each end note, maybe 5 at a time, then test the export process until it works properly.
EPUB editing is... not really an advisable approach. You can "hand build" EPUBs using tools and techniques I regard as outdated, but applying these processes to EPUBs generated by InDesign or another platform is going to result in messy chaos. Things like replacing embedded images is high (or low?) on this no-no list, in my experience.
The solution is to fix the problem at the INDD level and re-export to the publisher's standards. Happy to help (along with many other experienced folks here) as much as I can. But patching the EPUB is... not a workable path.
As I understand the publisher was trying to fix the InDesign file and not the EPUB file. They took out the images and resized them and put them back but that did not help. Everytime they tried to export the EPUB file InDesign crashed. The publisher sent it back to me because they could not figure out what was wrong with the file since I edited it.
If the images are linked, try this: put all of the images in a new subfolder, so that the INDD file can't find them. Then try an export, ignoring all warnings about images not being available. If this creates an EPUB without crashing, it's one or more of the images at fault, and gives a useful direction for troubleshooting.
To the last, yes, I do publication consulting. But let's see if we can work this through. (For one thing, I'm not sure of how the author/publisher relationship is working here; too many cooks and all that. )
Try this: without changing anything else, leaving the image files separated, save the file to IDML. There's two paths to that and I've never been sure if there are any differences, so use Ctrl+E/Export to IDML. (You can also just Save As IDML, but never mind that for now. My feeling is that the export 'does more.')
Now open the IDML file, save it as a different name INDD, and try the export again. If it works, start looking through the new document to see if the IDML cleanup save did any irreparable damage to your content, structure, TOC, etc.
ID will create a low-res placeholder when you place and image, and that's what will show up for most editing, even if you get a "missing link" error on open. I am not sure what has been done to this file that images were replaced and now somehow aren't properly "connected" any more. Maybe I am misreading the description of the book's history, but it sounds like some questionable steps/processes were used in the back-and-forth. For EPUB export, it is usually best to let ID handle the image reprocessing to the export-defined parameters; about the only time you fuss with the original images and have ID pass those on through is for very high resolution results, which don't matter much on a browser/EPUB reader.
I find that the iBooks Store list of titles is somewhat limited and some popular titles are not available. Can I purchase an ebook from another source, download it and then read it in iBooks? I have the iPad 2' my daughter has a Kindle but when it comes to getting books to read she has it all over me and my iPad.
Most e-books come in a format proprietary to the seller and can only be viewed in the seller's devices or software. Amazon has a Kindle app for the iPad that will allow books in that format to be read, as do Barnes and Nobel and Google for their e-book formats. All three apps are available for free in the iTunes Store. So with an iPad, you have the best of all worlds when it comes to content selection.
No, eBooks tend to have digital rights management on them so can usually only be read in a store's own app i.e. iBooks in the iBooks, Amazon's books in the Kindle app, Barnes & Noble in the Nook app. iBooks will open DRM-free ePub books.
Not really what you were looking for, but there are collections of public domain books that don't have DRM and can be read in multiple readers - feedbooks.com. Of course, many of those same titles are available for free from iBooks as well.
I have the same problem, except that for some reason, I can only download free books from the Ibookstore. Whenever I look up an author, it tells me it can't find him or her and won't connect to the store. In the meantime, I've downloaded the Kindle app on my Ipad and am using that without a problem.
A Clergyman's Daughter is a 1935 novel by English author George Orwell. Intimidated by her father, Dorothy performs her submissive roles of dutiful daughter and bullied housekeeper. Her thoughts are taken up with the costumes she is making for the church school play, by the hopelessness of preaching to the poor and by debts she cannot pay in 1930s Depression England. Suddenly her routine shatters and Dorothy finds herself down and out in London. She is wearing silk stockings, has money in her pocket and cannot remember her name. Orwell leads us through a landscape of unemployment, poverty and hunger, where Dorothy's faith is challenged by a social reality that changes her life.
I run Global Grey entirely on my own. Last week, 40,000 people downloaded my books - 10 of those people donated. But without your help, this site cannot survive. I know not everyone can donate, but if you are able to, please support this project with a small donation - any amount is appreciated, and it only takes a minute. Donations are made through the secure PayPal or Stripe systems. Thank you :)
Alternatively, you can support the site by buying the entire collection for only 25.
Help me continue giving free literature to all by either making a donation (one-off or monthly), or by purchasing the entire collection. Without the financial help of people like yourself, this site wouldn't be able to continue running.
I hope that no suggestion of any strange land that may be conveyed bythe title will scare readers away from this book; for, though somechapters do indeed tell of Elfland, in the greater part of them there isno more to be shown than the face of the fields we know, and ordinaryEnglish woods and a common village and valley, a good twenty ortwenty-five miles from the border of Elfland.
In their ruddy jackets of leather that reached to their knees the men ofErl appeared before their lord, the stately white-haired man in his longred room. He leaned in his carven chair and heard their spokesman.
"For seven hundred years the chiefs of your race have ruled us well; andtheir deeds are remembered by the minor minstrels, living on yet intheir little tinkling songs. And yet the generations stream away, andthere is no new thing."
They went back to their ancient crafts, to the fitting of iron to thehooves of horses, to working upon leather, to tending flowers, toministering to the rugged needs of Earth; they followed the ancientways, and looked for a new thing. But the old lord sent a word to hiseldest son, bidding him come before him.
