Copy part of my existing form to another (new) FormAsked by TentMA on January 20, 2014 at 02:43 AM
Is it possible to copy part of my Questionnaire to a new one that I am creating? How?
JotForm Support
Hello TentMA,
Yes it is possible to achieve. You can take advantage of our "Field Manager" app, which will help you copy/clone selected fields from one form to another. Take a look at the following URL: http://apps.jotform.com/app/field_manager
Please be noted that it will only clone form fields to another form but will not copy the conditions and other settings of your form.
Do check and get back to us if you have any questions.
Thank you!
Hi! Can I respond here??
I am trying to use it but for some reason, it cannot upload the Form that I want to clone. It must be too big (I am not even finished with it!)
JotForm Support
Hello Arlene,
I am not sure if I have understood your problem. Do you mean to say that the app does not show the fields which you want to clone?
Please be noted that both the form should exist in your account. First (left form) you have to select the form in which you want to add the form fields and in the right section you should select the source form.
Please share a screenshot of your screen for better understanding of your problem. This guide should help you add image in your forum post: http://www.jotform.com/answers/277033
Thank you!

By the way, I am using Windows 8.
JotForm Support
I was able to load the first form (sort of) after clicking Change Form,
loading another form and then clicking Change Form again. Please try that with your second form (the one on the right side) and let us know if that helps.
Hi! I am using Firefox. How would I know the version?
Yes, I can do that too but not the Form I need to clone.

Wheat Belly: Lose the Wheat, Lose the Weight, and Find Your Path Back to Health
Rodale, 3 Ιουν 2014 - 304 σελίδες
Now includes a sneak peek of Undoctored--the new book from Dr. Davis!
A renowned cardiologist explains how eliminating wheat from our diets can prevent fat storage, shrink unsightly bulges, and reverse myriad health problems.
Every day, over 200 million Americans consume food products made of wheat. As a result, over 100 million of them experience some form of adverse health effect, ranging from minor rashes and high blood sugar to the unattractive stomach bulges that preventive cardiologist William Davis calls "wheat bellies." According to Davis, that excess fat has nothing to do with gluttony, sloth, or too much butter: It's due to the whole grain wraps we eat for lunch.
After witnessing over 2,000 patients regain their health after giving up wheat, Davis reached the disturbing conclusion that wheat is the single largest contributor to the nationwide obesity epidemic--and its elimination is key to dramatic weight loss and optimal health. In Wheat Belly, Davis exposes the harmful effects of what is actually a product of genetic tinkering and agribusiness being sold to the American public as "wheat"--and provides readers with a user-friendly, step-by-step plan to navigate a new, wheat-free lifestyle.
Informed by cutting-edge science and nutrition, along with case studies from men and women who have experienced life-changing transformations in their health after waving goodbye to wheat, Wheat Belly is an illuminating look at what is truly making Americans sick and an action plan to clear our plates of this seemingly benign ingredient.

Watch Dogs 2 is coming soon and it has an interesting challenge ahead.
For one it's following on from a high profile title by one of the biggest games developers in the world that failed to really make its mark. We're hoping that this series follows a similar pattern to that of Assassin's Creed- an interesting concept at the start which was refined and improved on hugely in the second outing.
One thing Ubi is working on is giving you more to do in the open world setting for the sequel, and that includes fun stuff like drone racing. Fun was in short supply in the first game.
Here's a look at the nuttiness of racing drones in the game.
There's also a pretty bad fall off a bike at the end!
The drone racing looks great, and it's actually a little slower than the real-life sport which is starting to take off. Those things are fast!
Watch Dogs 2 is out on November 15th, 2016.

The 'American Idol' champion, looking a lot slimmer, shows off some dance moves with the Destiny's Child singer.
After debuting the soulful ladies anthem "Without Me" back in April, Fantasia Barrino now unveils its music video featuring her track collaborators Kelly Rowland and Missy Elliott. The sexy ballad is one of two singles released from her critically-acclaimed new album "Side Effects of You", the other being "Lose to Win".
Looking a lot slimmer and sexier now more than ever, Fantasia drops some rarely seen dance moves in the four-and-a-half minute clip, sharing the dance floor with "Dirty Laundry" artist Rowland as they execute a short choreographed routine. From her fierce facial expression to the way she flaunts her toned figure, Fantasia comes off as a no nonsense diva in the music video, which she regards as her most favorite yet.
Rowland credits directors Gomillion & Leupold for their feisty aura in the clip, saying, "The directors have captured Fantasia and myself in a video style that we've never done before. Even the grittiness of the song is reflected in the video." Rap queen Elliot, rocking a mohawk and her trademark tracksuit, chips in to give the track and the clip its retro '90s vibe.
Fantasia's "Side Effects of You" enjoyed both commercial success and favorable reviews from critics, debuting at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart while being praised for her new music's progression from her previous albums. Rowland also recently released her new album "Talk a Good Game", which includes singles "Dirty Laundry" and "Kisses Down Low".

This seems highly insecure whatever you do, but hey i'll give it a go.
What will the account details allow access to, and how many are there? If it's just a few, get KeePass There is a Symbian client for it, but not iPhone. Tell whoever has the iPhone to get an S60 / WinMob device and to stop being a poser! They're in IT and should know better.
You can upload the database to the internet pretty much anywhere... Any online storage site.

I second KeePass, I'm using the PortableApps version on Windows and KeePass X on the Mac.
I'd really like an iPhone, by the way, it's under consideration for next month, along with Blackberry Storm. Depends on who is going to pay for it, really.

© 2017
Cable grafting is widely considered to be the preferred alternative to primary repair of the injured facial nerve; however, quantitative comparison of the 2 techniques has not been previously undertaken in a rodent model.
To establish functional recovery parameters after interposition autografting in a rodent facial nerve model.
Design, Setting, and Participants
Prospective randomized animal study at a tertiary care facial nerve center using 16 female Wistar Hannover rats.
The experimental group received reversed autograft reconstruction of a 20-mm neural gap, and the control group received facial nerve transection and primary repair.
Main Outcome and Measure
Whisker excursion was measured weekly for 70 postoperative days using laser micrometers.
The control group exhibited the most rapid recovery, with substantial return of whisker movement occurring during the third postoperative week. The experimental group demonstrated return of function beginning in the fourth postoperative week, eventually achieving a degree of function comparable to that of the control group by the sixth postoperative week (P = .68).
Conclusions and Relevance
Recovery of facial function after cable grafting seems to be slower than, but eventually similar to, recovery after primary neurorrhaphy in a rodent model. In the present study we have established a benchmark for recovery of whisker movement across a 20-mm rodent facial nerve gap, which will be used for comparison of different facial nerve gap bridging materials in future studies.
Level of Evidence
The gold standard for facial nerve reconstruction after transection is microsurgical neurorrhaphy; coaptation of the divided nerve ends may be accomplished by means of different modalities, but primary repair is the technique of choice.1 When a substantial length of nerve has been lost and primary repair is no longer a viable option, interposition, or "cable" grafting, is generally considered to be the next rung on the reconstructive ladder.1
To our knowledge, there have been no articles comparing recovery after interposition autografting with recovery after primary neurorrhaphy in the rat facial nerve. We sought to investigate recovery of facial function in the rat using a validated and highly quantitative method.2,3 Whisker excursion, or "whisking," is the most readily measurable facial movement in the rat and is produced by the combined action of extrinsic whisker pad muscles and intrinsic "sling" muscles attached to each of the approximately 25 dynamically controlled vibrissae within each pad.4,5 Whisker pad muscles are primarily innervated by the buccal and marginal mandibular branches of the facial nerve,4 with either branch capable of supporting dynamic whisking.6,7 The present study was designed to quantify recovery after cable grafting of the buccal and marginal mandibular branches with respect to recovery after primary neurorrhaphy in order to establish a functional baseline for recovery across a long neural gap for future whisker movement recovery studies.
Sixteen female Wistar Hannover rats (Charles River Laboratories) 90 to 105 days old and weighing 200 to 250 g were used for the study under a protocol approved by the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary Animal Care and Use Committee; National Institutes of Health guidelines for animal care and use were followed at all times. Eight animals were randomized to the experimental group, and 8 served as controls. All surgical procedures were performed under general anesthesia, induced with intramuscular ketamine hydrochloride (50 mg/kg) (Fort Dodge Animal Health) and medetomidine hydrochloride (0.5 mg/kg) (Orion Corporation).
The preoperative animal conditioning protocol established by Hadlock et al8 in 2007 was followed. Animals were handled individually for 5 minutes daily over the course of 1 week to acclimate them to manipulation by humans. Then, titanium head fixation implants (Whitman Tool and Die) were placed, using 1.3 × 4-mm titanium screws (Synthes CMF). Animals were allowed to recover from surgery for 2 weeks before proceeding with conditioning to the testing apparatus. The conditioning period lasted between 3 and 4 weeks, until animals easily tolerated placement in the apparatus. Rats then underwent facial nerve manipulation.
A preauricular incision was made on the left side of the face and carried down to the parotid gland, which was then removed to expose the underlying buccal branch of the facial nerve. This branch was followed in a retrograde fashion toward the pes anserinus, permitting identification of the main trunk, from which the marginal mandibular branch was identified. A transverse facial incision was then made from the base of the auricle to the lateral aspect of the whisker pad to expose the buccal and marginal mandibular branches all the way to the distal convergence of facial nerve branches, as described by Henstrom et al6 in 2012; any collateral rami encountered were divided. The nerve was then transected at the pes anserinus and at the distal convergence, such that the buccal and marginal branches were resected en bloc, remaining joined both distally and proximally, resulting in a single, 2-fascicle neural autograft, measuring 20 ± 1 mm. The orientation of this conduit was then reversed, relocating the distal end proximally and vice versa. Proximal and distal neurorrhaphies were performed using between 3 and 6 interrupted 10-0 nylon sutures (Ethilon, Ethicon), taking care to ensure complete approximation of the epineurium around the circumference (Figure 1). The incisions were closed with running 3-0 polyglactin sutures (Vicryl, Ethicon).
The main trunk of the facial nerve was identified via a left preauricular incision, as for the experimental group, then transected sharply. It was immediately repaired with 2 to 4 interrupted 10-0 nylon sutures, with care taken to reapproximate the epineurium around the entire circumference of the neurorrhaphy (Figure 1). The incision was then closed with a running polyglactin suture.
Whisking kinematic data were collected during weekly testing sessions for 10 consecutive weeks, following the protocol established by Heaton et al2 in 2008. Briefly, while each animal was restrained in a body harness and head fixation apparatus, laser micrometers (MetraLight) were used to measure whisking movements over the course of 5 minutes, on both the operated and unoperated sides (Figure 2). Polyimide tubes (SWPT-045 and SWPT-008, Small Parts) were used to facilitate micrometer tracking by visually enhancing the C-1 whisker.
During each testing session, software developed by Bermejo et al9 in 2004 was used to determine the amplitude of the C-1 whisker movements. The amplitudes of the 3 greatest whisker excursions in each testing session were then averaged by arithmetic mean. A 1-way analysis of variance test with Bonferroni post hoc analysis was performed using the compressed data from postoperative days 21 through 70; there was negligible whisker movement in the first 3 weeks after facial nerve manipulation; P < .05 was considered significant. Data are reported as absolute amplitude values, as well as "relative recovery," or the ratio of the operated side whisking amplitude to that of the unoperated side, to minimize amplitude variations caused by daily inconsistencies in whisking effort.
All 16 animals had documented normal whisking movements prior to surgery and subsequently demonstrated immediate postoperative loss of whisking on the operated side of the face, with preservation of movement on the unoperated side. Whisking amplitudes of 10° or less may arise from jaw movements or slight changes in head position and are not included in further analysis. Mean whisking amplitude did not increase above this potential noise level until the third postoperative week for the control group and the fourth week for the experimental group (Figure 3). By postoperative day 42, recovery in the experimental group matched that of the controls; thereafter, the 2 groups remained closely associated and did not statistically differ (P = .68).
There were no surgical complications, although 4 animals were eliminated from the study because of failure of the head fixation implants: 2 from the experimental group and 2 from the control group. This was consistent with historical rates of head fixation device failure.
The results of this study indicate that autogenous cable grafting in rats produces functional recovery comparable to that seen after primary repair of the facial nerve, up to 10 weeks after nerve injury and suture repair. Although the experimental and control groups did not demonstrate a statistically significant difference in recovery when assessed as a whole, there seemed to be a trend toward more rapid initial recovery in the primary repair group relative to the cable graft group. However, because the recovery of whisking function was brisk in both the experimental and control groups and because the groups were comparatively small, it is not possible to rule out a difference in functional recovery between the groups. In fact, although such a difference is likely, we were unable to measure it using the current paradigm. Importantly, the relatively incomplete recovery of whisking using either cable grafting or primary neurorrhaphy affords investigators the opportunity to improve on currently achievable results via innovative neural repair methods and tissue engineering strategies.
One difference in cable grafting vs primary repair that may affect the timing and/or ultimate functional outcome after neurorrhaphy is the relative morphological characteristics of the cut and coapted nerve ends. With both nerve repair techniques, there is complete disruption of all neural elements, yet the epineurial and fascicular profiles can be expected to better match for primary repair if the nerve's anatomical orientation can be maintained through the transection and neurorrhaphy procedure. An autogenous cable graft, in contrast, not only introduces a second neurorrhaphy but may also present an anatomical mismatch for the coapted nerve ends that can impede regrowing axons (when they face nonneural tissues) or cause them to fail to enter the graft if the coapted ends do not match in size. The 2 neurorrhaphy locations and potentially imperfect anatomical alignment may have contributed to the apparent delay in initial recovery observed after autogenous cable grafting vs primary repair in the present study. Cable graft repair of long motor nerve defects remains problematic. Extensive research has been performed to identify a substitute for primary neurorrhaphy in cases of nerve gaps long enough to preclude the possibility of tensionless primary repair. Thus far, no material has demonstrated a greater potential to promote functional recovery than an autogenous cable graft. Numerous biomaterials have been previously investigated for their ability to conduct and promote axonal regeneration, including type I collagen tubules,10 porous and smooth-walled poly-L-lactic acid, polylactic–co-glycolic acid,11 and poly(glycerol sebacate) tubules12; vein grafts and small-intestinal submucosa seeded with Schwann cells have also been studied.13 Whereas histological and electrophysiological analyses of these materials often demonstrate fiber counts and compound action potentials approximating those encountered after repair via autologous cable graft, functional testing, when performed, provides uniformly poor results compared with neural autograft. Commercial synthetic neural conduits, such as copolyester poly(DL-lactide-ε-caprolactone) (Neurolac, Polyganics BV), are available as well, but clinical results remain inconsistent.14 In addition to neural conduit materials, cytokines, such as vascular endothelial growth factor, and mesenchymal stem cells are often used to augment neural regeneration, but even when combined with novel conduit materials, results from these are consistently surpassed by those of cable graft repair.10,13- 15
In the present study, we used a highly quantitative functional outcome measure in the rodent facial nerve cable graft model, laying the groundwork for future investigations of alternatives to neural autograft for bridging long nerve gaps. Previously, quantification of whisker movement recovery after cable grafting across a long neural gap was difficult to perform, but advances in surgical technique, data-gathering technology, and experience over the past decade have provided an optimal platform for this research. The anticipated progression of rodent facial nerve recovery is well documented and well understood and constitutes a dependable control set for comparison with cable autograft repair of the 20-mm facial nerve gap between the main trunk and distal convergence of the buccal and marginal-mandibular branches of the rat facial nerve. In turn, the data presented here, building on the primary neurorrhaphy benchmark, constitute a reliable standard against which to compare results from future neural reconstruction studies.
We have demonstrated herein that cable grafting in the rat facial nerve model permits useful neural regeneration and partial recovery of function when studied over a period of 10 weeks of convalescence. Our quantification of whisker movement recovery after cable grafting in the rat will serve as a baseline for future studies on rodent facial nerve regeneration, particularly in the areas of neural conduit and tissue engineering research. In addition, the difference in functional recovery after sensory and motor nerve cable grafting in the rodent facial nerve model is currently under investigation by our group.

|Harbingers of Health: The Positive Effects of Helminth Infection and Environment in Determining Host Health
|Shellman, Mitchell
|Graham, Andrea
|Ecology and Evolutionary Biology
|Class Year:
|Strachan's Hygiene and Rook's Old Friends Hypotheses both sought to explain the sharp rise in autoimmune disease incidence in post-industrial nations as the result of increased personal sanitation standards (Rook 2009; Strachan 1989). Rook specifically attributed the rise in immune-mediated disease to the eradication of helminths, which had co-evolved with humans throughout our evolutionary history (Rook 2009). Removing helminths from our environment caused our immune responses to mount excessive responses that lead to pathogenic inflammation and tissue damage (Gause 2013; Hubner 2013; Viney 2013). This study analyzed T. muris specimens from 55 mice to study how host health immune responses vary in three environmental conditions: Quarantine/hygienic, Mixed, and Stony Ford/natural. I imaged the helminths and measured the lengths and widths in order to calculate total helminth biomass per host. Hosts in natural conditions had elevated TH1 immune responses, reflecting a helminth survival strategy. Hosts in hygienic conditions had elevated TH2 and TREG immune responses, driving host susceptibility for atopic disease development. Host weight gain per day was used as a surrogate for relative host health (Foltz 1999). Helminths had the greatest biomass and total count in Stony Ford conditions, where infected hosts had the greatest weight gain per day and, thus, relative health. These results support the beneficial role of helminths as predicted by both the Hygiene and Old Friends Hypotheses, in addition to providing helminth biomass as a more accurate indicator of parasite burden than helminth count alone, especially for low-count infections. Biomass was also shown to be a more significant response variable than count for TH1 immune responses. The importance of helminth biomass has very important implications for interpreting past studies, which focus solely on helminth count, and for guiding future studies.
