What would help verify channeling as a real phenomenon would be to have accurate, concrete, and verifiable information revealed that only the spirit would know. For example, a person who truly channeled Einstein should be able to continue making important physics discoveries long after his death; or a father who died unexpectedly and left his affairs in disarray should be able to tell his wife and family, through a channeler, where important documents are located to help settle his estate.
Some channelers have been proven frauds who pretend to contact the dead for fame or fortune, though most people who channel sincerely believe that some unseen spirit uses their bodies as a vessel to dispense truth and wisdom. In the end, there is nothing pathological about channeling, but nor is it an unexplained conduit to another dimension.
Background: Despite recent advances in arthroscopic rotator cuff repair, the retear rate remains high. New methods to optimize healing rates must be sought. Bone channeling may create a quicker and more vigorous healing response by attracting autologous mesenchymal stem cells, cytokines, and growth factors to the repair site.
Methods: Our primary objective was to compare healing rates in patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair for degenerative tears, with and without bone channeling. Secondary objectives included comparisons of the Western Ontario Rotator Cuff Index (WORC) score, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, Constant score, Constant strength subscore, and visual analog scale (VAS) for pain score between groups. Patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair were recruited at 3 sites and were randomized to receive either bone channeling augmentation or standard repair. Healing was determined via ultrasound at 24 months postoperatively. WORC, ASES, and Constant scores were compared between groups at baseline and at 3, 6, 12, and 24 months postoperatively.
Results: A total of 168 patients were enrolled between 2013 and 2018. Intention-to-treat analysis revealed no statistical differences in healing rates between the 2 interventions at 24 months postoperatively. Statistically significant improvements occurred in both groups from preoperatively to all time points for the WORC, the ASES score, the Constant score or Constant strength subscore, and the VAS for pain (P < .0001). No differences were observed between the bone channeling and control groups in WORC, ASES, Constant, and VAS pain scores at any time point.
Conclusion: This trial did not demonstrate the superiority of intraoperative bone channeling in rotator cuff repair over standard rotator cuff repair at 24 months postoperatively. Healing rates, patient-reported function, and quality-of-life outcomes were similar between groups.
The motion of energetic charged particles inside a monocrystalline solid can be strongly influenced by channeling and blocking effects. The present article reviews the theory, the experimental studies, and some of the applications of these effects. The coverage of the published literature extends through June 1973.
New features of instabilities driven by energetic ions are revealed. It is found that these instabilities can affect plasma heating and rotation by channeling the energy and momentum of the energetic ions to the region where the destabilized waves are damped. Because of the energy channeling, the plasma core may not be heated by the energetic ions even when these ions have a very peaked radial distribution. It is likely that this new phenomenon can explain experiments on the spherical torus NSTX where a broadening of the temperature profile and even a drop of the temperature at the plasma center with increasing injected power were observed during Alfvén instabilities [D. Stutman et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 115002 (2009)]. The momentum channeling can lead to plasma rotation and frequency chirping due to the Doppler shift varying in time.
Metabolite channeling is known to occur in both primary and secondary plant metabolism (Winkel, 2004; Jørgensen et al., 2005; Graham et al., 2007). Despite this, there has been no explicit consideration of the phenomenon, either in plants or in other organisms, in the models that are used in steady-state MFA to deduce metabolic fluxes through the network of central carbon metabolism. In fact these models can be readily extended to allow for the impact of channeling on the redistribution of label in a steady-state MFA experiment, and two possibilities are of immediate interest (Fig. 1). First, channeling may prevent the randomization of orientation that would normally occur when a symmetric metabolite equilibrates with the bulk medium between enzyme-catalyzed reactions. If the symmetric metabolite is asymmetrically labeled, then orientation conserved transfer of label in the channeled pathway will lead to a different labeling pattern in the downstream metabolites from the one expected for an unchanneled system (Fig. 1A). For example asymmetrically labeled fumarate might be channeled through fumarase, leading to asymmetric labeling of malate and Asp (Fig. 1B; Sumegi et al., 1993); whereas these products of fumarate would be symmetrically labeled in the absence of channeling. Second, and more generally, channeling might provide inequivalent routes for the labeling of an intermediate, leading to a change in the labeling pattern of a downstream metabolite (Fig. 1C). For example a channeled glycolytic pathway could bypass input of label from the pentose phosphate pathway at the level of triose phosphate, altering the isotopomer composition of metabolites derived from phosphoenolpyruvate (Fig. 1D).
The impact of these two channeling schemes on the redistribution of label in a steady-state labeling experiment was explored using the MFA software 13C-FLUX (Wiechert et al., 2001). Models were established for the two network structures (Supplemental File S1) and the extent to which the channeling flux could be deduced from the labeling data provided was investigated. These simulations showed that the redistribution of the label was sensitive to the presence of the channeling and that its extent could be quantified by steady-state MFA (Supplemental Table S1). This encouraging result suggested that it would be worthwhile to consider the impact of introducing channeling steps into the metabolic model that has been used to deduce flux maps of heterotrophic metabolism in cell suspensions of Arabidopsis (Williams et al., 2008, 2010).
These results have two major implications for the analysis of central carbon metabolism. First, metabolite channeling can be a significant factor in determining the steady-state redistribution of isotopic label in the network of central carbon metabolism, and this needs to be considered in constructing the models used for steady-state MFA. High-quality labeling data, coupled with the simultaneous analysis of experiments with different labeled precursors (Schwender et al., 2006; Libourel et al., 2007; Masakapalli et al., 2010), is improving the definition of the flux maps produced by steady-state MFA, and it is imperative to base these maps on realistic metabolic models that capture the likely features of the network. Second, steady-state MFA now offers a general noninvasive strategy for the detection of metabolite channeling in the central metabolic network that complements the existing methods, many of which are invasive. Ultimately the success of the method will depend on the structure and properties of the whole network, as well as on the extent to which the labeling strategy is able to report on the fluxes of interest. Thus it is to be expected that further increases in the sophistication of the models used for the analysis of heterotrophic metabolism by steady-state MFA, perhaps to include the cytosolic bypasses of TCA cycle enzymes (Sweetlove et al., 2010) or to capture the subcellular compartmentation of carbohydrate oxidation (Masakapalli et al., 2010), may have further implications for the characterization of channeled fluxes that bypass unchanneled pathways.
A Guide to Memorandum of Understanding Negotiation and Development, M. Johnson and L. Sterthous, 1982. This paper describes a practical step-by-step approach to negotiating memoranda of understanding. Although they were written for channeling agencies, the techniques as described would be useful for any social service agency interested in developing formalized interagency agreements. The documents includes model agreements. (NTIS Accession No. PB86-244779/AS)
Case Management Forms Set, 1985. This set of materials includes the care plan and reassessment forms and guidelines for their use. These should be useful to persons actually engaged in case management as well as their trainers. The care plan is organized to describe problems, outcome measures, types of help needed and informal/formal service providers. Reassessment in channeling was done every six months or when an event triggered a need for re-evaluation of the care plan. The reassessment form, organized for easy clinical use, is significantly shorter than the clinical baseline assessment instrument. (NTIS Accession No. PB86-236106/AS)
Case Management Training for Case Managers: A Trainer's Guide, Linda M. Sterthous, 1985. Case management involves working with a client and family to agree upon problems, goals, and services necessary to support the client in the community. Data collected from an assessment is used to develop a care plan. Case management includes arranging services, monitoring the client's situation on an ongoing basis and adjusting the service package as needed. This guide presents an outline and course content for a three-day training program in case management utilizing the tools, documents and techniques developed for the channeling demonstration. The course utilizes a case study method designed to give workers experimental training in the techniques of case management. Included is the Case Management Forms Set (also available separately) containing the care plan and reassessment forms and guidelines for their use. (NTIS Accession No. PB86-242633)
