+{"text":"Fathers who are involved with their infants have the potential to make significant positive contributions to their children's future health, wellbeing, and development. Transitions to fatherhood and the factors that shape those experiences, for some men, are poorly understood. There is a need for an improved awareness of the experiences of first-time fathers to inform policy and practice and improve support and outcomes for these men and their families. The primary aim of this work was to explore contemporary transitions to fatherhood. To this end, a constructivist grounded theory study (CGTM) was undertaken. Twelve new fathers were recruited in the North of England and data were gathered from semi-structured interviews where participants shared their experiences and perspectives of becoming fathers for the first time. Concepts relating to becoming and being fathers were explored in addition to fatherhood identity development. Following analysis of the data via processes fundamental to CGTM, the core category of reconciling father identities was constructed consisting of three theoretical categories: anticipating fatherhood, tensions in fathering and the fluidity of fathering. All participants had strong aspirations for involved fathering performances and took steps to prepare for their new roles. However, they faced various tensions in the workplace, in healthcare and in the normative, often traditional, expectations influenced by social and structural gendered norms. The father roles that they were ascribed by others frequently did not fit with their aspirations during pregnancy and the early months as fathers. They therefore found themselves working through periods of identity reconciliation which impacted upon their self-concept as fathers, their parenting confidence, and their parenting autonomy. Broader consideration of the needs of fathers is required across the arenas in which they perform fatherhood to support the development of positive father identities. This has the potential to benefit the wellbeing of the men themselves, their partners, and their infants. The implications for workplace, healthcare policy and practice are offered including suggestions for future research.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":244940181,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.7190\/shu-thesis-00412","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYNCND","url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.7190\/shu-thesis-00412","status":"HYBRID"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"High strength fibre reinforced polymers (FRPs) are composite materials made of fibres such as carbon, aramid and\/or glass, and a resin matrix. FRPs are commonly used for structural repair and strengthening interventions and exhibit high potential for applications to existing constructions, including heritage buildings. In regard to aramid fibres, uncertainties about the long-term behaviour of these materials have often made the designers reluctant to use them in structural engineering. The present study describes simple and non-destructive nonlinearity tests for assessing damage or degradation of structural properties in Kevlar fibres. This was obtained by using high precision measurements to detect small deviations in the dynamic response measured on fibres and ropes. The change in dynamic properties was then related to a damage produced by exposure of the sample to UV rays for a defined time period, which simulated long-term sun exposure. In order to investigate the sensitivity of such an approach to damage detection, non-linearity characterisation tests were conducted on aramid fibres in both damaged and undamaged states. With the purpose of carrying out dynamic tests on small fibre specimens, a dedicated instrumentation was designed and built in cooperation with the Metrology Laboratory of the Department of Electronics at the Politecnico di Torino.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":53354445,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1896493988","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1088\/1742-6596\/628\/1\/012102","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/iopscience.iop.org\/article\/10.1088\/1742-6596\/628\/1\/012102\/pdf","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"7024 Background: Gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO) is effective in favorable-risk acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), while its activity is limited in higher-risk AML in part due to multi-drug resistance (MDR) mechanisms, particularly P-glycoprotein efflux pumps. CPX-351 provides a survival benefit in secondary AML, a disease characterized by high MDR activity. The objective of this trial is to utilize CPX-351 as a bulk cytoreduction agent, to first reduce the high MDR leukemia clones, followed by sequential treatment with GO in a more favorable leukemia environment. Methods: This was a multicenter phase Ib trial of CPX-351 plus GO in relapsed\/refractory (R\/R) AML patients with standard 3+3 dose escalation design (NCT03904251). Cohort A was treated with CPX-351 100 u\/m2 on days 1, 3, and 5 plus GO 3 mg\/m2 (max 4.5 mg) on day 7. Cohort B was treated with the same regimen plus an additional dose of GO 3 mg\/m2 on day 4. The primary endpoint was the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), defined as < 2 dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) in the highest dose cohort. Secondary endpoints were IWG complete remission (CR) rate at day 28-42, liver veno-occlusive disease (VOD) rate diagnosed by the Baltimore criteria, and time of hematologic recovery (defined as ANC > 1000\/uL and platelet count > 100,000\/uL). Patients were enrolled at 4 University of California Hematologic Malignancies Consortium (UCHMC) centers: UC Los Angeles, UC San Francisco, UC Davis, and UC Irvine. Results: Thirteen participants were enrolled. The median age was 63 years (range 29-75). Eleven had relapsed disease, and two had refractory disease. Most received one prior line of therapy (n = 9). Seven had ELN 2022 adverse-risk disease at initial diagnosis, and two had intermediate-risk disease. The MTD was not reached. DLTs were observed in 1\/6 participants in cohort A (grade 3 rash), and 1\/6 participants in cohort B (grade 5 intracranial hemorrhage in the setting of severe thrombocytopenia). There were no cases of liver VOD. Of 12 evaluable participants, 4 achieved CR (33%), of whom 3 were negative for measurable residual disease by multiparametric flow cytometry, and 1 one achieved partial remission. The median age of responders was 30 years (range 28-65). The median time to return of normal hematopoiesis in those who achieved remission was 37 days (range 36-43). Three participants received allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (alloHCT) following investigational therapy: one remains in remission 34 months post-transplant, one died of infectious complications shortly after alloHCT, and one relapsed at day +60. Conclusions: CPX-351 plus two doses of GO 3 mg\/m2 is a feasible treatment with acceptable toxicity and reasonable marrow recovery kinetics. However, only three participants went on to curative alloHCT. Further evaluation for efficacy in a larger patient population is needed to determine the utility of this regimen in R\/R AML.

In small swimming animals (e.g. zebrafish), however, physical tagging is considered a painful, costly and impractical. This paper proposes a new tagging method for zebrafish that is based on Speed-Up Robust Feature (SURF) matching. In this method, a set of local features is extracted from a sequence of image frames collected through a computer vision system. The extracted set of features for each free-swimming fish is then compared with pre-extracted sets of features, stored in a database, using the SURF matching method. Feature vectors through SURF are formed by means of local patterns around key points, which are detected using a scaled-up filter. The performance of the proposed tagging method is assessed experimentally using six free-swimming zebrafish. The obtained results demonstrated an average accuracy of 90% which obtained with a matching-features threshold of 15%. These findings are promising towards developing a painless, cost-effective and practical animal tagging system for zebrafish.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":3299833,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2786553628","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/DESE.2017.30","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"With the advent of Multi-beam mask writers, curvilinear shapes are being realized with comparable metrics to Manhattan shapes when it comes to write times which has been the main issue with conventional VSB mask writers. Techniques like PLDC also enhance Multibeam writing of complex curvilinear patterns. In the past Standard Cell (SDC) design was done with a gear ratio (polypitch\/m1pitch) of 1:1. This inadvertently results in congestion on lower layers namely M1 as we try to push the design density. This can be improved by going to a gear ratio of 2\/3 by which we derive additional M1 tracks (3 M1 tracks for every 2 poly) but the benefit derived out of a 2\/3 gear ratio cell somewhat gets negated with the need for M2 in standard cells where MINT layer doesn't fully cover M1. To resolve the problem with higher M2 usage in standard cells we can introduce 1.5D or curvilinear routing to make the final\/minor routing connections. Here we try to present a study of different challenges and opportunities that arises as a result of introducing curvilinear routing in Standard cells (SDC). In IN5 technology node when we go for a gear ratio (CPP\/M1Pitch) of 2\/3 we observe that for every standard cell we will need two variants of the cell. These two variants have M1 which are interleaved and shifted. We can live with only one variant of the cell but this inadvertently leaves gaps in between standard cells as the M1 grids will not align when they are abutted. Further study of the impact of the need of two variants reveals that in some standard cells (~9% in IN5) we end up with using M2 for completing the connections. This has many drawbacks (extra routing resources, congestion on M2, increase in area and reduced performance) which negates the benefit derived with 2\/3 gear ratio. To fix this problem we have two options. One is to use 1.5D routing and the other to use curvilinear routing. With this approach all the benefits of 2\/3 gear ratio can be preserved (improved routing density, area and performance) without the need for M2. A design implementation of the same in IN5 AO22D2 standard cell with CPP of 45nm and M1 pitch of 30nm has been done and the M2 routing (with default approach) has been eliminated. Although this approach has numerous benefits and extended applications (in signal routing) it does present significant challenges when it comes to EDA tools, verification, mask and OPC. We are in the process of evaluating different test cases for design, mask and OPC challenges with curvilinear routing in IN5 SDC. On the design front the challenges include library characterization, PPA and runtime analysis, RC extraction and design verification. On the mask and OPC front some of the challenges include regular versus ILT OPC and their process window comparison, understand the SRAF's required, mask data volume and MRC. A comprehensive understanding of the challenges and resolution of the same will entail a new scaling paradigm for standard cell designs and also enhance signal routing which in turn has numerous benefits when it comes to PPA.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":204092439,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2976622214","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1117\/12.2536899","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

At baseline, 75.5% of the sample was normal weight (62.3\u00b19.6 kg, BMI 23.0\u00b13.1 kg\/m2, WC 82.3\u00b18.3 cm). Adjusting for baseline measures, changes over the academic year were not significantly different between PEER and CON for WT (1.4\u00b12.5 vs. 1.6\u00b13.1 kg, p=0.61), BMI (0.49\u00b10.96 vs. 0.54\u00b11.14 kg\/m2, p=0.72), or WC (0.07\u00b14.19 vs. 1.11\u00b14.80 cm, p=0.07). However, weight status change among the total sample was highly variable with 27.3% increasing WT by >=5% and 23.4% increasing WC by >=5% over the academic year with no difference between PEER and CON (25.8% vs. 28.8%, p=0.60; 19.2% vs. 27.7%, p=0.12, respectively).

The phenomenon of deixis or use is most often seen in everyday conversation in the form of verbal language. Deixis is also found in the conversation of characters or figures in literary works such as films. The study entitled \"Deixis in the Film Bumi dan Manusia by Hanung Bramantyo\" examines the use of deixis in the film directed by Hanung Bramantyo with the title \"Earth and Man\". Persona, time, place, social, and discourse deixis are the five categories of deixis studied in this study. Researchers used analytical methods in the form of pragmatics with qualitative techniques to analyze the data that had been collected. The data used in this study include fragments of speech from film conversations, both words and phrases containing deixis, including personal deixis, time deixis, location deixis, social deixis, and discourse deixis. Watching movies, capturing data, recognizing, categorizing, analyzing, formulating, and presenting data are the stages of analyzing in this research.

+{"text":"This paper aims at developing and introducing an onto-epistemological concept of afterlife in a modern philosophical worldview. In particular, it leads to expanding the scientific instrumentation in knowledge of being. The authors define three relational models, which form the concept of afterlife in accordance with axiological social communities' constants: the mortal, the future, and the middle models. Social-worldview models are based on philosophical notions \"purpose of life\" and \"purpose of death\". The main aspect of the mortal model of the afterlife concept is ignorance of religious sense, confirmation of creature comforts and death inevitability. The future model has the priority of spiritual values and the total denying of material ones. The middle model comprises the spiritual and material balance of values. The authors construct the Afterlife worldviews (ALW) concept and classify it into anthropocentric ALW, theocentric ALW and anthropotheocentric ALW. These notions give the possibility to see the historical Afterlife worldviews development as dialectic conformity of ALW opposite's abrogation in the diachronic structure of the social-historic process. The paper uncovers theoretical categories such as a category of binarity and a category of ternarity in an evolution of the notions of afterlife. Furthermore, evidences of dialectic change of these three models are studied from the perspective of ontology and epistemology. \u00a9 2018 Published by Future Academy www.FutureAcademy.org.UK","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":171810911,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2793754806","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.15405\/EPSBS.2018.02.60","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Her death was unexpected and therefore prompted a series of investigations that have resulted in recommendations for profound changes in the medical profession, at first in the USA and later in many other countries [1,2]. The media coverage of the Libby Zion case prompted questions about the quality of care in teaching hospitals. Many questions focused on the long hours that interns and residents work. The grand jury that investigated the case recommended that 'the State Department of Health should promulgate regulations to limit consecutive working hours for interns and junior residents in teaching hospitals'. At the same time a sociological study of residents suggested that long work hours and other intense pressures of clinical training, condition physicians to view patients as enemies, in contradiction of the implicit and desired principles of patient care [3].\n\nAn Ad Hoc Advisory Committee, appointed by the commissioner of the New York State Department of Health, recommended that the shifts worked by house staff and attending physicians in emergency services be limited to 12 hours, and that physicians caring for patients outside of the emergency services work in shifts limited to 16 hours with at least 8 hours off between shifts.\n\nPotential problems of implementation included effects on graduate medical education, hospital staffing, malpractice litigation, and health care financing.

+{"text":"\"Bounded rationality\" is a concept used in the social sciences to help identify and predict how individuals make decisions. An offshoot of rational choice theory, bounded rationality accounts for the fact that completely rational decisions are not feasible in practice and states that individuals use heuristics, or rules based on past experiences and information, to make decisions. The disciplinary home of bounded rationality is behavioral economics, but this concept is becoming more popular in other branches of the social sciences to help explain and predict human behavior. We can benefit from looking at librarianship from the perspective of bounded rationality, which has been done infrequently in our professional literature. Bounded rationality can explain how our users create heuristic shortcuts to simplify the decision-making process and deal with the multitude of choices and information available. If we can understand and harness these heuristics, we will better understand how our users make decisions and better determine how we can assist them. Moreover, librarians could also be said to make decisions using bounded rationality. Tasks such as collection development and the reference interview involve the use of heuristics on our part to process all the information we have available to us. Becoming aware of this process can provide for a more mindful and efficient way of making choices. This concept article will describe bounded rationality, apply bounded rationality to aspects of library service, and discuss the possible use of the concept as an assessment tool for our services.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":153857298,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2038216646","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1080\/01639260903088927","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

He was feared and loved with a reputation for fierce discipline, devotion to the game of rugby and a love of classical education. In this paper we explore his place in the history of colonial Natal and explain how a man renowned for thrashing his pupils had the wholehearted support of parents and the Natal settler community more broadly. In the first quarter of the twentieth century, Natal was witness to three major armed conflicts, the Second South African war, the Bhambatha Rebellion and the First World War. In the wake of the earlier catastrophic defeat at Isandhlwana in 1879 the settler population needed no persuasion that war-readiness should be a key part in the education of its boys. We argue that the commitment to muscular Christianity, team sport and corporal punishment rested on settler insecurity and a preoccupation with the precariousness of white rule.

On the eve of the colonial period the Langi were already producing planned agricultural surpluses\u2014principally sesame for trade with Bunyoro. Cotton, which was introduced in 1909, could only have been grown on a significant scale at the cost of sacrificing the trade in sesame. This the Langi refused to do until the early 1920s, when the market for sesame declined and the buying price of cotton rose; partial alleviation of the threat of famine and changes in traditional dry-season occupations were also important. From 1931, however, cotton output in Lango ceased to expand. This stagnation was only partly a result of the Depression; once more the Langi found themselves producing as much as was humanly possible, given an extremely tough environment, a simple technology and a fully stretched labour-force.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":162479083,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2127867818","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1017\/S0021853700016236","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Because of their hypoallergenic properties, ceramic materials have been recommended as an alternative to metals. Unfortunately, the cost of ceramics and limitations imposed by their material properties has restricted these applications. The metalloceramic composite Oxinium\u00ae has been suggested as asubstitute. This is the first study to prospectively compare these materials in patients with documented cobalt-chrome hypersensitivity. Over a period of ten years, preoperative screening using skin patch testing and in vitro leukocyte stimulation testing of patients with gonarthrosis and a history of metal hypersensitivity identified sixteen patients with allergy to cobalt-chrome alloy. Twelve (all&) underwent primary, and four underwent revision (3&, 1%) knee replacement surgery using either alumina ceramic femoral components (3 primary, 2 revisions) or Oxinium\u00ae femoral components (9 primary, 2 revisions) All implants were fixed with acrylic cement, and all-polyethylenetibial implants were used in each procedure. None of the patients in the primary groups developed symptoms of allergic reaction at a minimum of one year following surgery. Serial serum antibody and leukocyte stimulation studies have shown no reaction following placement of either type of prosthetic knee. Those undergoing revision surgeries had rapid resolution of preoperative symptoms of pain, effusion and eczematous rash. Serum studies showed a concomitant fall inantibody levels. The two patients undergoing revision surgery with alumina femoral implants subsequently underwent second revisions (both at 8 years) using Oxinium\u00ae femoral implants. Neither developed clinical symptoms orchanges in antibody profile.

In this study, four global optimization ~GO! algorithms, including a popular genetic algorithm, are used to minimize both cleanup time and cleanup cost taking pumping rates and\/or well locations as decision variables. Groundwater flow and particle-tracking models ~MODFLOW and MODPATH! and a GO tool ~GLOBE! are used. Real and hypothetical contaminated aquifers are considered for application.

Background: We designed an Antigen Specific Cancer Immunotherapeutic (ASCI) to induce a polyclonal antibody response and T-cells able to recognize HER2 epitopes. Methods: The HER2 ASCI is a recombinant HER2 protein, including its extra and part of its intra-cellular domains (ECD\/ICD), combined with the potent immunological adjuvant AS15 (GSK proprietary). Consecutive cohorts (Coh) of patients with Stage II\/III breast cancer received 20 (Coh1), 100 (Coh2) or 500mg HER2 ASCI (Coh3) in the adjuvant setting. Treatment comprised of 6 injections over 14 weeks. Recall injections were given on weeks 34 and 38 in Coh3. The trial was extended to include an alternative immunization schedule (Coh4) 500mg on days 0, 28 and 98. In an ongoing trial, patients with metastatic BC are receiving the 500mg HER2 ASCI, and being assessed for clinical and immunological activity. Results: The HER2 ASCI treatment was well tolerated, with no symptomatic cardiotoxicity. Increased doses showed no increase in the number or severity of adverse events. The induction of antibody (Ab) response against ECD was dose-dependent, with 2\/12, 9\/15 and 14\/16 immune responders in Cohorts 1, 2 and 3 after 6 immunizations, and 11\/ 16 responders after 3 immunizations in Coh4. The anti-ECD Ab response of patients in Coh3 follows two main kinetic profiles. 7\/14 patients show a maintained and predominant anti IgG Ab response after 4 immunizations. 6\/14 patients have an Ab titer which drops to baseline level after the 4th immunization and have a poor switch to IgG. The alternative immunization schedule (Coh4) does not improve the immune response and switch to IgG. Preliminarly data in breast cancer suggest that the anti ECD is maintained during the immunization schedule. The anti-ECD Ab in 11\/14 patients (Coh3) bound HER2 overexpressing breast cancer cell lines. In sera from 2 patients tested so far, the gene-expression showed 70 and 20% similarity with that of Trastuzumab. An anti ECD or ICD specific T-cell response was detected in about 50% of patients (Coh3). Conclusions: The HER2 ASCI was well tolerated without major toxicity and induced a specific T-cell response and anti ECD Ab against HER2. The alternative immunization schedule does not improve the immune response. The data of the metastatic study suggest that the Ab-response is maintained over time of immunizations.

+{"text":"Patient: Male, 72 Final Diagnosis: Rhabdomyolysis Symptoms: Muscle pain Medication: Ticagrelor Clinical Procedure: \u2014 Specialty: Cardiology Objective: Unusual clinical course Background: Following acute coronary intervention in cardiology patients, the combined medical therapy with the platelet inhibitory drug ticagrelor and a statin medication (e.g., simvastatin) is recommended according to international guidelines. Yet combined therapeutic regimens have the potential of pharmacological interaction with both ticagrelor and simvastatin being metabolized by CYP3A4. Rhabdomyolysis is a known side-effect of statin therapy and combined therapy increases the susceptibility to this complication. Case Report: A 72-year-old patient presented to our Emergency Department with typical signs of rhabdomyolysis consisting of muscular cramps and pain in both legs and a significant elevation of creatinine kinase (CK). Five months prior to this presentation, he had been hospitalized due to acute coronary syndrome followed by a coronary intervention of a high-grade left anterior descending artery stenosis. His long-term medication included simvastatin 20 mg daily, which he had taken for several years, and ticagrelor, which had been added to his medication following coronary intervention. The patient showed fast recovery of symptoms and rapid normalization of CK levels upon treatment change from ticagrelor to clopidogrel with a paused statin administration. Conclusions: The combined use of ticagrelor with low dose simvastatin poses a risk for rhabdomyolysis even in patients with normal kidney function. Patients treated with ticagrelor might require changes in statin therapy and dose adjustments in order to avoid pharmacological interactions and higher risk for adverse effects.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":7921751,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2768744559","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.12659\/AJCR.905974","PubMedCentral":"5708261","ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

A control diet (C) was formulated to meet rabbit growth requirements. G1 and G2 diets were obtained by supplementing C diet with \u03b2-glucans from Saccharomyces cerevisiae (100 and 200 mg\/kg respectively), M1 and M2 diets were supplemented with mannanoligosaccharides (Actigen, Alltech) (400 and 800 mg \/kg respectively), and GM diet was supplemented with 100 mg\/kg of \u03b2-glucans + 400 mg\/kg of MOS. Ninety six rabbits weaned at 32 days of age were randomly assigned to the six experimental diets and slaughtered 15 days after weaning. The type of diet did not affect villus length and goblet cell counts, but crypt depth was reduced at the highest levels of MOS and \u03b2-glucans supplementation. Both MOS and \u03b2-glucans increased specific sucrose activity (P = 0.001) and soluble protein concentration (P < 0.05) in jejunal mucosa; they also modified ileal and caecal microbiota and modulated the immune response. Compared with the control diet, the supplementation with 200 mg\/kg of \u03b2-glucans (G2) and 800 mg\/kg of MOS (M2) reduced the expression of iNOS in ileum. Rabbits fed the M2 diet showed also the lowest mRNA abundance of IL6. In appendix, rabbits fed G2 showed increased IL6 expression and those fed the M2 reduced the expression of INF\u03b3. In conclusion, MOS and \u03b2-glucans changed intestinal microbiota and modulated the immune response by reducing the expression of some pro-inflammatory cytokines in ileum and caecum of weaned rabbits.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":53576799,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The iSPERSETM technology is a novel dry powder drug delivery system that represents an alternative therapy for CF patients with PA infection. The powder is composed of small, relatively dense and dispersible particles that can be formulated with high drug loads, allowing for more convenient and faster administration via a simple, passive dry powder inhaler (DPI).

+{"text":"Ulcers are a common occurrence in diabetic patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Early prognosis of ulcer healing can help patients avoid prolonged pain and future amputation by alerting physicians to intervention efficacy. However, monitoring of ulcers and predicting intervention success remains a challenge. We have developed a so-called vascular optical tomography imaging system (VOTIS) to address this problem. The system consists of patches with infrared sources and silicon photodiodes. The patches are placed on areas of interest in the lower extremities and light attenuation data is obtained at multiple frames per second. During data acquisition, a thigh cuff is inflated and deflated to affect blood flow to the lower extremities, resulting in dynamic changes of the recorded signals. Features such as maximum change in total absorption, response time to cuff inflation, and plateau time (PT) between cuff inflation and deflation can be extracted. Here we report on a pilot study of 10 PAD patients (70% diabetic) with ulcers, who had a surgical intervention to improve blood flow. VOTIS measurements were obtained immediately after the intervention, and again three weeks later. Prognosis was determined from EHR and classified as improvement (N=7) - when an ulcer reduces in size - or no improvement (N=3).

+{"text":"Norris and M0hl (1983) have made (or repeated and amplified) the interesting suggestion that some odontocete cetaceans, the \"toothed\" whales and dolphins, may debilitate prey by stunning them with very loud emitted sounds. As the authors note, the suggestion is still hypothetical; more controlled investigation is called for. This will not be easy. Yet there is other evidence which may provide partial and indirect support for the Norris and M0hl hypothesis. It comes from the coleoid cephalopods, the squids, cuttlefishes, and octopuses. These animals seem to be deaf. Their deafness is so remarkable that it needs to be explained in functional and evolutionary terms. There is some reason to believe that it might be an adaptation to cope with, or adjust to, odontocete attacks. The evidence for a lack of hearing ability is behavioral and, to an extent, morphological. Some comments by earlier workers should not be misconstrued. Coleoids detect pressures; they can balance themselves. Pumphrey (1950, p. 14) believed that \"an aquatic animal could not respond to gravity unless it heard.\" Dijkgraaf (1961) made a similar point. Their arguments would seem to be logical in theory, but they are not supported by the known facts. Individuals of Octopus vulgaris from European and Mediterranean waters have been studied in great detail in the laboratory. They cannot be induced to respond to acoustic stimuli (Wells 1978). Reef squids, Sepioteuthis sepioidea and Sepioteuthis lessoniana, and cuttlefishes such as Sepia latimanus have been studied extensively in their natural habitats. They ignore sounds unaccompanied by other signals (Corner and Moore 1980; Moynihan and Rodaniche 1982; personal observation and many comments in MS). So, apparently, do the few other coleoids which have been studied (references in Moynihan, in press). The remarkableness of effective deafness is revealed by comparisons with other animals and other characters. Coleoids are favored prey of many odontocetes as well as predatory fishes, seabirds and pinnipeds (Clarke 1977). They must, therefore, take defensive measures. They would be expected to take as many precautions as possible. They have comparatively large and complex brains (Young 1977). Packard (1972) says that cephalopod (he means coleoid) brains are as big as, or bigger than, most fish brains. Presumably, this indicates intelligence (at least an improvement on primitive mollusks). There has been a corresponding elaboration of certain sensory systems. Most coleoids have good vision.

Block diagonalization, a common precoding technique that was proposed for downlink MIMO, is also analyzed under MMSE equalization and Wiener precoding. It is shown that block diagonalization does not improve the per-user diversity that is obtained in the case of Wiener precoding. The maximum per-user diversity achieved by Wiener precoding is (M-(N-Nk) Nk, where M is the number of transmit antennas, Nk is the number of receive antennas for user k, and N = \u03a3kNk.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":20852697,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2210927317","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/ICC.2015.7248598","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Inpainting has received a lot of attention in recent years and quality assessment is an important task to evaluate different image reconstruction approaches. In many cases inpainting methods introduce a blur in sharp transitions in image and image contours in the recovery of large areas with missing pixels and often fail to recover curvy boundary edges. Quantitative metrics of inpainting results currently do not exist and researchers use human comparisons to evaluate their methodologies and techniques. This paper focuses on a machine learning approach for no-reference visual quality assessment for image inpainting based on the human visual property. Our method is based on observation that when images are properly normalized or transferred to a transform domain, local descriptors can be modeled by some parametric distributions. Next, we use a support vector regression learned on assessed by human images to predict perceived quality of inpainted images. We demonstrate how our predicted quality value repeatably correlate with qualitative opinion in a human observer study. We show that our approach outperforms known and widely used algorithms on a selected image dataset both in terms of correlation coefficient.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":124219166,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2474096059","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The resulting 1D focusing element demagnifies the tube focal spot into an image line with its width and position following from a classical imaging equation. While the tube and the image ( \u0301focal \u0301) position are kept fixed, the focal length and axial position of the mirror are adaptively controlled for different geometries, which results in a 1D zoom-optical system. The specimen is placed in the high-depth focal region of the condensed beam for the CT-scanning procedure with the slice orientation given by the focusing direction. The reflected X-ray beam has a sheet-like geometry throughout the focal region, which can be further used for parallel projection data acquisition along the nonfocusing direction of the optical system. Multilayer reflection inherently results in a small energy bandpass of photon energies. The pass energy may be tuned to characteristic lines of the tubes in use or with lower photon flux through the white X-ray spectrum.

It reflects realistic vehicle behavior under control command sequences to assist with autonomous driving algorithm development. We present a learning-based modeling method to generate a high-accuracy vehicle dynamics model, i.e., the residual correction vehicle dynamics model. Given an existing vehicle dynamics model as a dynamics base model, a residual predictor uses a multi-loss Gaussian regression process to predict the dynamics residuals of the base model from the encoded history of base model predictions and control commands. The accuracy of vehicle dynamics model is improved in heading, speed as well as trajectory. By design a multi-loss Gaussian regression process, the model predicted vehicle dynamics states has less difference compared to the ground truth. An online inference algorithm is proposed to bridge the differences between offline training and online inference.

BADER, Argonne National Laboratory \u2014 The effect of hard layer crystallinity on irreversible switching in Fe\/SmCo and FeNi\/FePt spring magnets was investigated by a First Order Reversal Curve (FORC) technique and vector magnetometry. In Fe\/epitaxialSmCo samples, the switching fields of the individual layers can be conventionally determined from steps in the major loop. The FORC diagram shows a distinct onset of irreversible switching at the hard layer switching field. Vector magnetometry reveals that most of the soft layer switches by rotation before reversal of the hard layer. In FeNi\/polycrystalline-FePt samples, the switching fields are masked by the smooth and step-free major loop. The FORC diagram displays a single onset of irreversible switching, suggesting that the soft (FeNi) and hard (FePt) layers switch together. The co-rotation is confirmed by vector magnetometry. Despite the random anisotropy of the hard layer, an appreciable transverse moment bigger than just the soft layer contribution is observed. The successive vs. simultaneous rotation of the soft\/hard layer is mainly due to different hard layer crystallinity.\u2013 Work is supported by NSF and DOE (BES-MS contract #W-31-109-ENG-38).

Here, we use HET\/LRS2 observations of J0919+4906, a confirmed z\u22480.4 emitter of ionizing photons to achieve spatially resolved (12.5\u00a0kpc in diameter) spectroscopy of Mg\u00a0ii\u03bb2796, Mg\u00a0ii\u03bb2803, [O\u00a0ii]\u03bb\u03bb3727, 3729 , [Ne\u00a0iii]\u03bb3869, H\u03b3, [O\u00a0iii]\u03bb4363, H\u03b2, [O\u00a0iii]\u03bb4959, [O\u00a0iii]\u03bb5007, and H\u03b1.

We find that J0919+4906 has significant spatial variation in its Mg\u00a0ii escape and thus ionizing photon escape fraction. Combining our observations with photoionization models, we find that the regions with the largest relative Mg\u00a0ii emission and Mg\u00a0ii escape fractions have the highest ionization and lowest dust attenuation. Some regions have an escape fraction that matches that required by models to reionize the early universe, while other regions do not. We observe a factor of 36 spatial variation in the inferred LyC escape fraction, which is similar to recently observed statistical samples of indirect tracers of ionizing photon escape fractions. These observations suggest that spatial variations in neutral gas properties lead to large variations in the measured LyC escape fractions. Our results suggest that single sightline observations may not trace the volume-averaged escape fraction of ionizing photons.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":251196891,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1093\/mnras\/stac2180","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":"2207.14328"},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/arxiv.org\/pdf\/2207.14328","status":"GREEN"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Olev Lugus was born in a farmer's family in the Sangaste Parish, Valga County on the 12th of March 1935. He began his education in the Restu primary school and continued in Valga Accounting and Planning Technical High School. After graduating from the Technical High School, he started his working career as an economist in the industry department at the Planning Committee of the Parnu region. In 1953, his career continued in the Parnu woodworking factory \"Viisnurk\" in the position of senior engineer, later as a head of department. In parallel with work, Olev Lugus went to study at the Tartu State University, from which he graduated in 1962 in the speciality of industrial economics. After graduating, he decided to take up an academic career in economics. In 1962, he started his long and productive research career at the Institute of Economics, Academy of Sciences of the Estonian SSR (later Estonian Institute of Economics at Tallinn University of Technology); at first as a junior researcher, then, after post-graduate studies and defending the thesis of a Candidate of Economics (PhD) \n\"The Main Perspectives and Economic Efficiency of the Complex Using of Wood in the Estonian SSR\" as a senior researcher (1971). Quite soon, in 1972, he was appointed a head of the department of industrial economics. In 1986, he was promoted to the position of research director and in 1989, was elected a director of the Institute of Economics. He remained the director of the Institute also after re-elections until 1998. In the period 1998\u20132000, he worked as an economic advisor to the Estonian Employers' Confederation. \nOlev Lugus was the director of the Institute of Economics in a complicated but also a very interesting and promising period when Estonia regained its independence. It was not easy to be part of the process of reforming the Estonian Academy of Sciences and the research system. At the same time, it was very stimulating to take new challenges \u2013 important orders from new institutions of the Republic of Estonia for applied research and analyses. One of the new challenges was the launch of applications for international research projects. Under the leadership of Olev Lugus, the Institute of Economics faced these challenges successfully. The main area of his personal research was analysis and prognostication of development of the Estonian industry, focusing on analysis of the use of Estonian forest resources and wood industry. In the period of regaining independence in Estonia, different macro-economic research topics were on the agenda. \nOlev Lugus was the Estonian leader in 10 international projects, including with such partners as PHARE programme, International Centre of Economic Growth (ICEG, USA), Finnish Institute of Economic Research (ETLA) etc. He was also one of the leaders of working out the programme of Estonian economic independence (so-called IME-project). Olev Lugus was the Estonian coordinator of the ICEG (1985\u20131998); a member of the Estonian President's Academic Council (1994\u20131996); a vice-chairman of the Estonian Economic Association and had several other important public appointments. \nHe made over 2100 presentations in Estonia and abroad about his research findings and development problems of the Estonian economy. He was also an author of nearly 150 publications and an editor of 8 collections of research papers on economics, including the Estonian-Finnish joint collection \"Comparison of the Estonian and Finnish Socioeconomic Development\" (Helsinki 1993), which in 1994 received the Estonian Science Award in humanities and social sciences. Olev Lugus has been awarded a Badge of Honour Order (1981) and in 1987, he received the honorary title of the meritorious cultural figure of the Estonian SSR. \nColleagues remember Olev Lugus as an energetic, productive and capable scientist who achieved a lot.

The particle's time coordinate plays a natural role as an operator and observable in the modified formalism. In the present paper, the formalism is extended to describe a system of two nonrelativistic particles--each with its own time coordinate--scattering from background potentials and from one another in four-dimensional spacetime. The two-body interaction is taken as a generic noninstantaneous action-at-a-distance, which depends independently on the space-time positions of the two particles. The dynamics is expressed in terms of an integral equation for the wave function, that is, a nonrelativistic version of the Bethe-Salpeter equation.

The objective of this work is to evaluate the Direct Purchase of airline tickets at UFPE between 2014 and 2017, as an electronic purchasing system and from the perspective of efficiency in the allocation of resources. The research hypothesis holds that there was a decrease in the amount paid for air tickets buying directly from airlines, without the intermediation of the travel agency. For this, the research design examines an original database elaborated from primary data extracted from the Daily and Ticket Concession System and secondary data obtained from the air transport directory of the National Civil Aviation Agency. The research was based on quantitative analyzes, preliminarily based on descriptive statistics. In addition, we used Pearson's correlation and multiple regression. The main results indicate that there was a reduction in prices practiced at UFPE and there is strong statistical evidence that the implementation of the policy at the institution contributed to average savings of R$ 204,025.00 in 2016 and R$ 260,565.00 in 2017, considering only the purchases analyzed: tickets between Recife and Brasilia, Recife and Rio de Janeiro, Recife and Sao Paulo (back and forth) that correspond to 34% and 38% of the processes involving air travel carried out in the interest of the institution in 2016 and 2017, respectively.

+{"text":"<p>Recently, different studies have shown evidence of signals transmitted by the Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS), coherently reflected over some parts of the ocean, and received from cubesats. In particular, strong coherent scattering has been reported in regions with low water surface roughness as those near continental masses and in atolls. Over open ocean, few coherent signals were reported to be found, although the data sets were somewhat limited and certainly not exhaustive. The level of coherence in reflected GNSS signals depends on the roughness of the &#160;surface (i.e. significant wave height and small scale ripples and waves induced by the wind), the viewing geometry (i.e. incidence angle, or equivalently, elevation angle of the GNSS satellite as seen from the point of reflection), propagation effects (namely ionospheric disturbances) and on the frequency (i.e. particular GNSS band, like L1\/E1, L2 or L5\/E5). These coherent measurements over ocean follow earlier evidence of coherent GNSS reflections over sea ice which date back to 2005, the time of UK-DMC mission. More recently, Sea Ice Thickness (SIT) retrievals have also been carried out with this technique, at an accuracy comparable to that of SMOS.<\/p><p>All the observations referred so far were done at a single frequency, L1\/E1. So, there is an interest to explore the coherence at the other main GNSS bands, i.e. L2 and L5\/E5 as well as to the widelane combinations between them (linear combinations of carrier-phase measurements, of longer effective wavelength). Spire Global radio occultation cubesats work at L1 and L2 frequency bands, and therefore provide unique dual-frequency raw data sets of reflected signals over open ocean, sea ice and inland water bodies. With these, it is possible to study the coherence of these targets at each of the bands and at their widelane combination, as well as the performance of altimetric retrievals at grazing angles of observation (very slant geometries, which facilitate coherence properties of the scattering). The dual-frequency observations can correct the ionospheric effects, and their widelane combinations, of longer effective wavelength, might expand the conditions for coherence. The fact that this new approach is fully compatible with small GNSS radio occultation payloads and missions, might represent a low cost source of precise altimetry to complement larger dedicated missions.<\/p><p>An ESA research study involving Spire Global and IEEC aims at studying this new potential altimetric technique.

For this study, the raw data at two frequencies, acquired at 6.2 Mbps, are shifted to intermediate frequencies and downloaded to the ground without any further processing. In-house software receivers are then applied to generate the reflected echoes or waveforms, and to track the phase of the carrier signals.

+{"text":"Virtual Enterprise (VE) is a temporary cooperation among independent enterprises to build up a dynamic collaboration framework for manufacturing. One of the most important steps to construct a successful VE is to select the most qualified partners to take role in the project. This paper is a survey of ranking the volunteer companies with respect to four evaluation criteria, proposed unit price, delivery time, quality and enterprises' past performance. Fuzzy logic method is proposed to deal with these four conflicting criteria, considered as input variables of the model. As each criterion is different in nature with the other criterion, various membership functions are used to fuzzify the input values. The next step is to construct the logical fuzzy rules combining the inputs to conclude the output. Mamdani's approach is adopted to evaluate the output in this Fuzzy Inference System. The result of the model is the partnership chance of each partner to participate in VE. A partner with highest partnership chance will be the winner of the negotiation. Implementation of this model to the illustrative example of a partner selection problem in virtual enterprise and comparing it with fuzzy-TOPSIS approach verifies the feasibility of the proposed approach and the computational results are satisfactory.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":30645770,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1973335992","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.5220\/0005293000820088","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYNCND","url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.5220\/0005293000820088","status":"HYBRID"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The steric factors and conformational effects observed in both new structures support the proposed mechanism for the overall reaction catalyzed by aconitase. The alternate substrate \u03b1;methylisocitrate is derived from \u03b1;methyl\u2010cis\u2010aconitate during crystallization and is observed to bind in the active site in a manner very similar to that observed for isocitrate.

However, the other potential hydration product of \u03b1;methyl\u2010cis\u2010aconitate,\u03b1;methylcitrate, cannot be accommodated in the active site due to steric conflict of the methyl group with Asp\u2010165. The results are consistent with the requirement that cis\u2010aconitate must bind in two ways, in the citrate mode and in the isocitrate mode. Crystals of aconitase with sulfate bound are isomorphous to those with isocitrate bound.

This pest not only cause direct damage by reducing dry weight but also shown reduction of quality of grain and seed viability converting the seed unfit for the human consumption and as well as for planting in next season (Das et al. 2005). The initial infestation occurs in the field and from there it is carried over to stores where the population can rapidly build up (Prevett 1961). Adult female laid eggs on pigeonpea seeds, which hatch within five to seven days. The young larvae bore into seeds and complete their development inside by feeding on the seed tissues. At the end of their development stage, adults emerge from the seeds leaving holes at the exit points (Patro et al. 2007).

+{"text":"Simple Summary Farrowing crates\u2014narrow cages where sows are kept during lactation\u2014impede the sow in the expression of natural behaviours and, therefore, cause animal welfare concerns. However, piglet losses due to crushing by the sow are effectively reduced by farrowing crates. Hence, there is an urgent need to find a practical compromise between sows' and piglets' welfare. The aim of this study was to test two farrowing pens without fixation of the sow in comparison to pens with a farrowing crate. Piglet mortality, piglet crushing and sow and piglet behaviour in the first 72 h after birth were analysed. Piglet mortality was higher due to increased levels of piglet crushing in the free-farrowing pens. However, the majority of crushing occurred in the first three days after birth. The recorded active and resting behaviour of sows in the first 72 h after birth hardly highlighted differences between the three systems, i.e., sows in free-farrowing pens hardly used the offered possibilities for activity in the first 72 h after birth. In conclusion, our results suggest that a temporary fixation for a few days after birth could be sufficient to significantly reduce piglet crushing and could represent a practical solution for future farrowing systems. Abstract Pens with farrowing crate (FC) and two differently designed free-farrowing pens (LH-pens: 7.3 m\u00b2, plastic flooring; GH-pens: 5 m\u00b2, cast-iron and concrete flooring) were compared regarding piglet losses and postpartum sow behaviour (all treatments) and reasons for piglet crushing and postpartum litter behaviour (LH and GH). One-hundred-and-three crushing events were analysed in eight batches concerning sows' posture changes that crushed piglets and age of crushed piglets. Posture change frequency, amounts of single posture changes and total time spent in different body postures were evaluated for 41 sows (14 FC-sows, 13 LH-sows and 14 GH-sows) in six batches. Litter behaviour (location, active\/inactive scoring, resting behaviour next to the sow) was analysed during sows' posture changes and piglet crushing. Piglet mortality was higher in LH (25.6%) and GH (19.9%) compared to FC (12.3%) due to higher levels of piglet crushing. Most crushing occurred during the three days postpartum in LH (92.7%) and GH (83.9%).

+{"text":"Two animals contesting possession of a resource sometimes fight, but more often engage in aggressive displays until one or the other retreats. Game theory predicts that signals of strength or aggressive intent will not be heeded unless necessity or high cost make them reliable, but some animal threat displays appear to contradict this prediction. An evolutionary simulation model is presented in which two animats of variable fighting ability compete for a resource and have access to their opponent's intention movements, i.e., their real-time behavioural choices. Reliable communication of fighting ability does not evolve. The results of the simulation are used to assess conflicting theories of signalling in competitive interactions.

+{"text":"Since the successful separation of hexokinase (ATP-D-hexose phosphotransferase, EC 18.104.22.168) isoenzymes in animal cells into four major types by starch-gel electrophoresis as well as by DEAE-cellulose column chromatography (Katzen & Schimke, 1965), the regulatory mechanism for each of the isoenzymes has been examined (McLean et al., 1966; Katzen, 1967; Katzen et al., 1970; Murakami & Ishibashi, 1972). Those studies seem to be based on the assumption that each of the isoenzyme types is identical throughout the body. Actually, for instance, the Km value for glucose is almost the same for each type irrespective of the tissue from which the isoenzyme is obtained (Schimke & Grossbard, 1968). In the course ofstudies on the hexokinase isoenzymes in rat tissues, however, we found that partially purified type I preparations from various tissues differed markedly from each other in sensitivity to a thiol inhibitor, though they were almost identical in electrophoretic mobility on cellulose acetate and in their Km values for glucose (Murakami et al., 1973). This fact suggested that the type I isoenzymes from various tissues might not be completely identical proteins. To elucidate the mechanism of the difference, kinetic properties ofthe type I isoenzyme were comparatively examined with reference to the effect of a thiol inhibitor.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":38860057,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Radhika Mohanram's Black Body and Mary E. John's Discrepant Dislocations together represent a recent trend of oppositional criticism from within postcolonial theory. The main thrust of Mary John's argument in Discrepant Dislocations is that if international feminism is to become more accountable than its universalistic assumptions have allowed so far, then it must expose the spatio-temporal location of theory in the West. John uses the metaphor of anthropology to foreground the importance of the politics of location. Anthropology as an academic discipline is grounded in the history of colonisation. Anthropological practice, characterised as it is by a relation of asymmetry between locations, provides John with a perspective from which to offer a postcolonial critique of contemporary feminist theory and ethnography, as it is practised in the West as well as in the Third World. The metaphor of anthropology enables John to highlight aspects of the different subject positions available to postcolonial feminists in the First World. She critiques the homogenising move of dominant anthropology as it manifests itself in the way the identity of the immigrant postcolonial feminist intellectual is made to collapse within that of the larger immigrant group. All movement from the Developing to the First World is then identi\u017d ed as a progression into 'modernization, progress, and secularism' (p. 10). This homogenisation of discrepant dislocations allows for the production of a non-generative opposition between 'modern' and 'non-modern' where the former is evidently the monopoly of the West, and the latter of the rest. John makes a case for theory that is partial and composite, as against relative and universal. She further rejects the opposition between relative and universal theory because, as she says, notions of cultural relativism and universalism are misleading when the subject in question is hybrid. The whole concept of partial theory is predicated on the notion of a hybrid subject who can't be explained in either\/or terms of notions of cultural relativism or a facile universalism. The way out of this impasse, as John seems to suggest, is to recognise the partiality of the truth claims of each; and to recognise the hybridity of the postcolonial subject. There are, however, problems with assuming that the postcolonial subject is always hybrid and John does not seem to take that suf\u017d ciently into account. An uncritical acceptance of hybridity is predicated upon condescension towards claims to 'nativism'.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":195318647,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1080\/08164640050138770","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Although used only as a coloring in the past (either as a color food additive3) or a dye-up agent for cultured fish), astaxanthin has become one of the major materials eagerly anticipated by industries for dietary supplements. Furthermore its other various specificities have been reported, including anti-inflammatory action4), anti-atherosclerotic action5,6), action against diabetes7,8), retinal protective action against light-induced injury9), daily rhythm regulating action10), immunomodulating action11), anti-stress action12), muscle function duration improving action13), semen quality improving action14) and inhibiting action against bladder cartinogenesis15).

+{"text":"Magnetic drug targeting can be used for locoregional cancer therapy, although the limitation is minuteness of the induced force. A new and simple procedure to enhance the magnetic force is changing the shape of carrier particles. It has been mathematically proved that exerting much stronger magnetic dipoles to nanowires are more possible than to spheres with the same volume. The magnetic dipole of wires having aspect quotient (ratio of length to diameter) of 3 is higher than the spheres of the same volume. Nanowires with \u03b1 = 5 have magnetic dipoles 1.95 times greater than the spheres with the same volume. At a fixed radius, the magnetic dipole increases with the volume of the drug carrier.

Lindane is an organochlorine pesticide considered as Persistent Organic Pollutant with immunosuppressive effects in acute exposure, but data on chronic exposure to low doses are still inconclusive. Aim. The aim of the study was to investigate immune and redox changes in mice chronically exposed to low doses of lindane. Experimental setting. Mice were chronically exposed for 6 months to lindane (5 mg\/L) in drinking water, and subsequently a subgroup was challenged orally with S. typhimurium. The inflammatory factors MMP-9, IL-6 and KC, along with the antioxidant GSH were assessed in lungs, livers and kidneys. Splenocytes were stimulated ex vivo with TLR2 or TLR4 agonists, and the levels of released IL-6, IFN\u03b3, TNF\u03b1 and KC were measured in cell supernatants. Results. A decrease of IL-6 and MMP-9 lung levels and decreased IL-6 production by LPS-activated splenocytes from lindane-exposed mice were evidenced as compared to control groups. A slight increase of MMP-9, IL-6 and KC levels, and a decrease of GSH were observed in the liver of lindane exposed mice, while increased GSH levels were registered in infected lindane-exposed mice. Infection generally delivered stronger signals then lindane, but an immunomodulatory effect of lindane was shown in particular cases in splenocytes from infected lindane-exposed mice. Conclusion. Chronic exposure of mice to a low dose of lindane delivered in drinking water can induce both systemic immune suppression related to particular inflammatory factors, and inflammation, depending on the organ.

In this contribution, we have studied the evolution of the microstructure of poly(L-lactide) in solution in toluene at 105 \u00b0C in the presence of various organocatalysts. Weak bases such as triethylamine and DMAP (4-dimethylaminopyridine) lead to a low extent of epimerization and a chain scission reaction. The DBU (1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene) amidine induces in turn important extents of both epimerization (up to 37% D-stereoisomer formation) and chain scission. This has been tentatively attributed to a nucleophilic mechanism. Cinchona alkaloids lead to only a modest amount of epimerization. Phosphazene bases are in turn rather active, especially for high catalytic loadings (>1 mol %). The chain scission observed in this case is proposed to occur via a base-catalyzed hydrolysis mechanism. Finally, it is shown that combining an organic base with an acid can lead to a synergistic effect regarding notably the chain scission reaction.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":249721773,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3390\/macromol2020016","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2673-6209\/2\/2\/16\/pdf?version=1655261642","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"141 Background: Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is highly expressed in poorly differentiated, metastatic, and castration-resistant prostate cancers. Recently, 68Ga-PSMA positron emission tomography\/computed tomography has been successfully developed as an effective diagnostic tool for prostate cancer. However, the pathophysiological functions of PSMA in prostate tumors remain unclear. Methods: We examined the protein expression of PSMA in tumor endothelial cells in human prostate tumors by immunohistochemistry. Prostate cancer tissues were resected from patients with prostate cancer via robotic surgery in 2019 at Ehime University. In vitro, we prepared conditioned medium derived from a PSMA-positive human prostate cancer cell line, LNCaP, cultured on collagen I gels. We then examined PSMA expression in human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs) cultured with the conditioned medium. We assessed angiogenic activities by treating HUVECs with LNCaP-derived conditioned medium using a tube formation assay that mimics angiogenesis. Results: Immunohistochemical positivity of PSMA and CD31, a marker of endothelial cells, and PSMA-expressing tumor endothelial cells were observed in four of 33 prostate cancer patients (12.1%). We also found that the 10,000 \u00b4 g pellet fraction of the LNCaP-derived conditioned medium containing PSMA-positive membranes, including microvesicles, transformed HUVECs from \"PSMA-negative\" to \"PSMA-positive.\" Mass spectrometry revealed that the fraction contained an important growth factor. Furthermore, treating HUVECs with the 10,000 \u00b4 g pellet fraction of the LNCaP-derived conditioned medium significantly promoted tube formation, mimicking angiogenesis in a PSMA-dependent manner. Conclusions: Our findings revealed the existence of PSMA-positive tumor endothelial cells in human prostate tumors, which were found to enhance tumor angiogenesis in prostate cancer tissues. The endocytic process related to these PSMA-positive microvesicles in normal endothelial cells might be an attractive target to develop novel anti-angiogenic drugs, which could inhibit the transformation of normal endothelial cells into tumor endothelial cells (Watanabe et\u00a0al., The Prostate. 2021. in press).","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":246922584,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1200\/jco.2022.40.6_suppl.141","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Background: Previous studies have shown varied results with respect to the diagnostic utility of a positive nerve root sedimentation sign (SedSign) on MRI for symptomatic lumbar stenosis. The objective of this study was to analyze the clinical characteristics of SedSign utilizing a validated classification for low back and leg pain (Saskatchewan Spine Pathway classification; SSPc). Methods: This was a retrospective review of prospectively-collected data in 367 consecutive adult patients presenting to a spine surgeon with back and\/or leg pain between January 1, 2012 and May 31, 2018. Inter- and intra-rater reliability for SedSign was 73% and 91%, respectively (3 examiners). Results: SedSign was positive in 111 (30.2%) and negative in 256 (69.8%) of patients. On the univariate analysis, a positive SedSign was correlated with age, male sex, several components of ODI, EQ5D mobility, cross-sectional area (CSA) of stenosis, and SSPc pattern 4 (intermitted leg dominant pain). On multivariate analysis, SedSign was associated with age, male sex, CSA stenosis and ODI sub-score for walking distance. The sensitivity and specificity of SedSign for neurogenic claudication was 50.3 and 82.9, respectively (positive predictive value 65.8%, negative predictive value 71.9%). Conclusions: The SedSign has high specificity for neurogenic claudication, but the sensitivity is poor.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":231890658,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1017\/cjn.2019.198","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/cjn.2019.198","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"As society has developed, fishing villages that have relied solely on traditional fishing have found themselves on the verge of extinction. Therefore, efforts are being made to transform fishing villages into areas with various functions including recreation, tourism, and education. In this regard, the main purpose of this study is to analyze the relative importance and priorities of the multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) process used in the revitalization of fishing village tourism. To this end, the A'WOT (AHP\/SWOT) hybrid approach, developed in combination with the SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) analysis and the AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) method, was used to determine the significant factors. The results of the study demonstrated that the 'opportunities' and 'strengths' areas are relatively important when it comes to the priority of sustainable development. We also identified the high importance in terms of global weight of both 'Increased demand for leisure, rest and ecotourism' and 'Possession of natural resources of diverse and distinctive fishing villages by sea and region' as sustainable ways to revitalize fishing communities. This study demonstrates that with appropriate data and an applicable systematic process, the A'WOT approach can adequately show where intervention is most needed. The study shows that the application of tourism in the current context has the potential to approach the issue of fishing village tourism. Furthermore, this study is meaningful in that it quantifies the importance of fishing village tourism attributes by using a systematic approach, and it concludes with suggesting where the emphasis should be placed on policy and strategy.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":236634655,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3182153827","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3390\/su13137472","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2071-1050\/13\/13\/7472\/pdf?version=1625458541","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In the process of improving national education, modern technologies are becoming more and more important every year, the introduction of which contributes to the modernization and development of education, as well as improving the quality of training of future specialists and bringing education closer to science. At the same time, such technologies require a review of existing approaches to educational activities, as well as an analysis of their impact on society and individual social groups. In this regard, the study of the digitalization of education and its social consequences is a very relevant area of research. The purpose of this study is to identify the main problems and determine the prospects for digitalization in education.Materials and methods. To achieve this goal, we used methods of dialectics of social cognition, analysis of philosophical, sociological, and pedagogical literature, and synthesis and modeling of socio-cultural processes.Results.

The lowest growth rate was recorded in the control (T0) with 61.25 cm plant height, 140.1 cm 2 leaf area and 118.47 g dry matter production and 0.95 mg\/g chlorophyll content. On 30 DAS the growth parameters in T8 treatment was significantly (P<0.01 and P<0.001) higher than those observed in control and all other treatments. Discussion Subterranean termites, including mound building and arboreal species account for 80% of the economically important species. Termites are beneficial biological agents whose bioturbating and decomposing activities can be managed indirectly with organic matter to enhance primary production. Termites construct mounds that comprise clay, silt, sand and partially digested plant materials that are cemented together with excreta and saliva usually forming a hard exterior (Lee and Wood, 1971). Soil feeders play a major role in the dynamics of carbon and nitrogen in the soil (Eggleton and Tayasu, 2001). Termites utilize organic components at different stages of humification makes them one of the most ecologically important components of soil fauna (Donovan et al., 2000). Additionally, the use of excreta and saliva in mound construction results in a relatively lower C: N ratio, which may favour plant growth (Laker et al., 1982). Consequently, termite mounds may represent relatively \"fertile islands\" in a landscape that are attractive resources for plants (Gudeta et al., 2010). In addition to the carbon mineralization, they have an ecological impact in terms of nitrogen. Many termite species utilize dead plant material rich in nitrogen and thus supplement their foods with nitrogen (Collins, 1983). Besides soil aggregation and bioturbation, termites are among the most important agents of nitrogen economy (Mettings, 1993). The dominance of termites in tropical ecosystem is mainly related to decomposition process, soil engineering, providing a possible input of nitrogen through symbiotic N fixation for soil fertility (Collins, 1984; Pascal Jouquet et al., 2011). In the present study, free living microbes were isolated from TMM of T. trinervoides and O. obesus and the isolated bacterial strains were found to be nitrogen fixers. Therefore it is evident that TMM harbors dense and varied symbionts which provide a favorable environment for soil biology (Brune, 1998). Among cereals, maize (Z. mays L.) is an important food and feed crop which ranks third after wheat and rice in the world. It has an expanded use in the agro industries and is recognized as a leading commercial crop of great agro economic value. Balanced nutrition is an essential component of nutrient management and plays a significant role in increasing crop production and its quality. The efficient strains isolated from termite mound material was applied to study the combined effect of biofertilizers with inorganics in Z. mays. L The inorganic fertilizers added with the TMM of two different termite species in eight different combinations recorded a significant difference in the growth parameters of Z. mays L. on 30 DAS compared to the control plant. Various morphological characters play an important role in yield components and are of immense importance in understanding plant growth and development. Combined application of inorganics along with biofertilizers has been known to influence morphological characters such as plant height, dry matter production and its distribution into different plant parts. When TMM was applied with N and P sources it influenced a better synergistic effect in growth parameters of maize than applied TMM as such. The effect of tripartite application on plant height, no of leaves, LAI, chlorophyll content were significantly different from those obtained with single application of T. trinervoides Table 1.

+{"text":"We revisit the calculation of height correlations in the two-dimensional Abelian sandpile model by taking advantage of a technique developed recently by Kenyon and Wilson. The formalism requires to equip the usual graph Laplacian, ubiquitous in the context of cycle-rooted spanning forests, with a complex connection. In the case at hand, the connection is constant and localized along a semi-infinite defect line (zipper). In the appropriate limit of a trivial connection, it allows one to count spanning forests whose components contain prescribed sites, which are of direct relevance for height correlations in the sandpile model. Using this technique, we first rederive known 1- and 2-site lattice correlators on the plane and upper half-plane, more efficiently than what has been done so far. We also compute explicitly the (new) next-to-leading order in the distances (r\u22124 for 1-site on the upper half-plane, r\u22126 for 2-site on the plane). We extend these results by computing new correlators involving one arbitrary height and a few heights 1 on the plane and upper half-plane, for the open and closed boundary conditions.

+{"text":"Transpolar arcs (TPAs) are auroral features that occur polewards of the main auroral oval suggesting that the magnetosphere has acquired a complicated magnetic topology. They are primarily a northward interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) auroral phenomenon, and their formation and evolution have no single explanation that is unanimously agreed upon. An automated detection algorithm has been developed to detect the occurrence of TPAs in UV images captured from the Special Sensor Ultraviolet Spectrographic Imager (SSUSI) instrument onboard the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) spacecraft, in order to further study their occurrence. Via this detection algorithm TPAs are identified as a peak in the average radiance intensity poleward of 12.5\u00b0 colatitude, in two or more of the wavelengths\/bands sensed by SSUSI. Using the detection algorithm for the years 2010 to 2016, over 5000 images containing TPAs are identified. The occurrence of these TPAs shows a seasonal dependence, with more arcs being visible in the winter hemisphere. The orbital plane of DMSP has been investigated as a possible explanation of the dependences in the results of the detection algorithm. For the spacecraft of interest this leads to a preferential observation of the northern hemisphere with the detection algorithm missing TPAs in the southern hemisphere around 01\u201306 UT. No seasonal bias has been found for these spacecraft.

+{"text":"Channelization and embankment of rivers has led to major ecological degradation of aquatic habitats worldwide. River restoration can be used to restore favourable hydrological conditions for target processes or species. This study is based on rarely available, detailed pre- and post-restoration hydrological data collected from 2007\u20132010 from a wet grassland meadow in Norfolk, UK. Based on these data, coupled hydrological\/hydraulic models were developed of pre-embankment and post-embankment conditions using the MIKE-SHE\/MIKE-11 system. Fine-scale plant and chemical sampling was conducted on the floodplain meadow to assess the spatial pattern of plant communities in relation to soil physicochemical conditions. Simulated groundwater levels for a 10-year period were then used to predict changes in plant community composition following embankment-removal. Hydrology was identified as the primary driver of plant community composition, while soil fertility was also important. Embankment removal resulted in widespread floodplain inundation at high river flows and frequent localised flooding at the river edge at lower flows. Subsequently, groundwater levels were higher and subsurface storage was greater. The restoration had a moderate effect on flood-peak attenuation and improved free drainage to the river. Reinstatement of overbank flows did not substantially affect the degree of aeration stress on the meadow, except along the river embankments where sum exceedance values for aeration stress increased from 0 m weeks (dry-grassland) to 7 m weeks (fen). The restored groundwater regime may be suitable for more diverse plant assemblages. However the benefits of flooding (e.g. propagule dispersal, reduced competition) may be over-ridden without management to reduce waterlogging during the growing season, or balance additional nutrient supply from river water. The results from this study suggest that removal of river embankments can increase river-floodplain hydrological connectivity to form a more natural flood-pulsed wetland ecotone, which favours conditions for enhanced flood storage, plant species composition and nutrient retention.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":133325328,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2561948253","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Vaccination of patients with autoimmune diseases with pneumococcal vaccines is necessary to prevent severe respiratory infections in this group of patients. The main issue of immunization of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) remains the issue of safety.The aim of the study was to study the safety of the 23-valent polysaccharide pneumococcal vaccine (PPV-23) in patients with SLE.The study included 73 patients with a reliable diagnosis of SLE, of which women - 64, men - 9, aged 19 - 68 years. 69 patients received glucocorticoids (GC) 5-30\u2009mg\/day, 55- hydroxychloroquine (GCH), 37-cytostatics (CS), 27 \u2013 biologics (14 \u2013 rituximab (RTM), 11 \u2013 belimumab (BLM), 2-BLM and RTM). 1 dose (0.5\u2009ml) of PPV23 was administered subcutaneously. 60 patients were examined within 1 year, 13 - within 2-3 months.Vaccination tolerance was assessed in 73 patients: in 33 (45.2%) - vaccine reactions were absent, in 36 (49.3%) - local reactions of mild and moderate severity were noted (pain, swelling, skin hyperemia at the injection site of the vaccine), lasting from 2 to 7 days, in 1 (1.4%) - general weakness within 1 month, in 2 (2.7%) - mild diarrhea within 1 day. Vaccinal reactions were typical and completely reversible, did not require additional appointments. One patient (1.4%) developed a hyperergic reaction of the Artyus phenomenon type, which was arrested within 7 days by the use of antihistamines and topical GCs. None of the 60 patients, whose follow-up period was 1 year, had no exacerbations of the disease directly related to vaccination (i.e., in the next 2-3 months). Vaccination was carried out both at a low degree of activity (n = 33 (55%)) and remission (n = 6 (10%)), and at an average (n = 12 (20%)) and high (n = 9 (15%))) the degree of SLE activity. The dynamics of the SLE activity index SLEDAI-2k (Me) during the year was as follows: initially - 4 (2; 6), after 2-3 months - 2 (2; 4), after 12 months - 2 (2; 4). During the year, 7 out of 60 patients had a moderate exacerbation of the disease, which was not related to the vaccination in terms of timing: after 3.5-5 months (3), 12 months (4). An exacerbation occurred in 4 - with a decrease in the HA dose, in 1 - after psychological stress, in 1 - against the background of persistently high immunological activity and insufficient therapy, in 1 - without an increase in immunological activity. In 4 out of 7, exacerbation was manifested by skin rashes and articular syndrome, in 1 - by the development of panniculitis, in 2 - by leukopenia. All these symptoms were noted earlier in the period of exacerbation. In all, the exacerbation was quickly stopped by a moderate increase in the HA dose. In 60 patients, the dynamics of immunological markers of SLE was analyzed during the year after vaccination. There was no evidence of a significant increase in the immunological activity of SLE after vaccination with PPV-23. After vaccination, no new autoimmune phenomena have been identified. In the first 3 months. after vaccination, in isolated cases, there was a transient increase \/ decrease in SLE markers (a-DNA, ANF, C3, C4) with a subsequent return to the initial values, without symptoms of exacerbation of the disease.1. During the year of observation, no exacerbations were observed that were reliably associated with vaccination. 2. Vaccination with PPV-23 is safe for SLE patients during periods of low and moderate activity. If necessary, vaccination is possible at high activity without the development of adverse events. 3.

The reasons behind these unfortunate events are the unabated illegal activities in the mangroves albeit the enforcement of laws and policies pertaining to its conservation and rehabilitation. For several decades, the Philippine government had been implementing programs and projects aiming to bring back the once pristine and productive mangrove areas through reforestation of denuded areas in the country. However, assessment is needed to evaluate whether these efforts have positively impacted coastal areas. This paper presents the current vegetational condition of selected reforested mangrove areas in Calabanga, San Miguel Bay, Philippines. Fifty-six (56) quadrats measuring 10x10m were established strategically in four (4) randomly selected rehabilitated mangrove sites. The overall results show that ten (10) mangrove species were recorded and Rhizophora apiculata and Rhizophora mucronata got the highest importance values of 111.59 and 105.96 respectively. This only shows that mono-specific mangrove species were considered during the rehabilitation of the areas set aside the environmental parameters affecting survival rate and the ecological diversity of the mangrove forest.

Thus, as it is largely described by the article of Hertzfeld in the present book (\"Measuring Returns to Space R&D), macroeconomic analysis combined with econometric tools have been applied to assess the global impact of space expenditures [macroeconomic modeling, influence of research and development (R&D) expenditures on a macroeconomic production function, etc.]. A different approach was used to evaluate the economic activity and the employment directly induced by space programs in the space industry and its suppliers (input-output analysis, use of economic multiplier). Other studies focused on the impact of the use of meteorological or communication satellites on weather forecast or activities related to telecommunication, as well as on the evaluation of space technology transfer policy (by the analysis of some of the markets created around or \"fertilized\" by space technologies).

Due, in part, to concern about a supposed dwindling distribution, the form was proposed for listing as an endangered species. In 1979 systematic searches for the species were conducted throughout the known range in the three-state area. Searches resulted in five new county records and a total of nine counties yielded mud turtles. Turtles were not found in five counties from which there were historical records. Given the cryptic nature of the turtle which leads to difficulty in adequately sampling appropriate habitats, we conclude the turtle probably is distributed over a 13-county area, but it is distinctly possible that other counties with suitable sandy soil and ephemeral pond habitats also harbor popula- tions.

+{"text":"AS PEOPLE age, they tend to become frailer. Their diminishing resilience leaves them vulnerable to sudden changes in health, brought about for example by minor infection, use of a new medication or changes in environment. Frail, older people are also at a higher risk of adverse outcomes, such as readmission, institutionalisation and death, than younger patients. The number of such patients with three or more long\u2010term conditions (LTCs) is set to increase from 1.9 million to 2.9 million by 2018, an increase that is expected to cost health and social care an extra \u00a35 billion a year. Many older people attend emergency departments (EDs), where staff are in a good position to identify early whether such people have experienced falls, unintentional weight loss and fatigue, and so help prevent further disability and loss of independence. Ideally, all patients aged 65 or over should be afforded comprehensive geriatric assessments, which involve interdisciplinary and in\u2010depth diagnostic processes. Because ED staff rarely have enough time or resources to provide such services, however, they tend to use frailty screening tools, of which the most popular is the Identification of Seniors at Risk. In the absence of a nationally agreed tool, many services have adapted their own overview assessments or screening tools to meet the needs of their patients. There is a pressing need to change how emergency nurses help older people manage their LTCs, and to move from the traditional medical model of illness towards a model of care. Patients with complex needs rarely fit into condition\u2010specific ambulatory models or pathways, and they would benefit more from a holistic approach to patient assessment and care planning than from being prioritised according to the severity of a condition. Integrated care, and collaboration across all sectors and professions, is crucial to the safety and wellbeing of the older population, but is rarely offered by single\u2010condition services that are reactive rather than predictive. The failure to adopt such an integrated approach can also be attributed to poor access to health records, and a lack of consultation with, and emotional support for, older patients. This year, the RCN Emergency Care Association committee will review the competencies required to be an ED practitioner, including those required to care for older people in urgent and emergency care. This offers an ideal opportunity to ensure that such care is undertaken collaboratively with other healthcare professionals, and is integrated with services in acute and community settings.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":207539659,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2325154966","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.7748\/en2014.04.22.2.15.s16","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Abstract The aim of the project is to investigate new material as a reductant in nickel extraction and purification processes. The analyzed reductants were coke, pig iron, ferrosilicon and two copper-silicon alloys. The mixture with the slag and reductant was poured into a cylindrical alumina crucible and kept in a furnace for one hour at 1573 K (1300 \u00b0C). After settling, the solidified sample consisted of the matte settled at the bottom of the sample separated from the slag at the top. Ferrosilicon was found to be the most effective reductant for cobalt recovery while 70wt%Cu-30wt%Si alloy facilitated 72% copper and 87% nickel recovery. The highest copper recovery is achieved with 90wt%Cu-10wt%Si reductant. Due to low melting point, high exothermicity and suitable density, Cu-Si alloys could be an ideal choice for the pyrometallurgical converting processes.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":137882404,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2334835169","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1515\/htmp-2013-0048","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYNC","url":"https:\/\/www.degruyter.com\/document\/doi\/10.1515\/htmp-2013-0048\/pdf","status":"HYBRID"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The present chapter focuses on adolescence and illustrates some of the developments that have taken place in research on loneliness during the past few years. Historically, much of the previous research in this area takes the view that loneliness is a sad predicament that is primarily experienced by selected groups of children, such as rejected children (see Asher et al., 1990, for a review) or the learning disabled (Margalit, 1994). Poor relationships with peers are thought to be at the heart of the problem in both cases. The present chapter joins with other chapters in this volume and reflects a growing awareness that loneliness is experienced to a certain degree by everyone (e.g., Hymel, Tarulli, Hayden Thomson, & Terrell-Deutsch, this volume) and that these feelings of relational dissatisfaction are intimately related to various positive developmental changes that take place during adolescence in particular (Larson, this volume). In line with recent developments in the domain, the present chapter also makes a sharp distinction between loneliness on the one hand and aloneness or solitude (i.e., the state of being alone) on the other. Several authors (Cassidy & Asher, 1992; Hymel et al., this volume; Youngblade, Berlin, & Belsky, this volume) have demonstrated that children and adolescents can and do distinguish between these two constructs. On the basis of these findings, an awareness that being alone does not necessarily imply loneliness is currently viewed as a necessary component of a true understanding of what loneliness is. In the present chapter, however, we take this line of reasoning one step further and suggest that individuals' attitude toward being alone be measured in addition to their feelings of loneliness.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":142265920,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2505886491","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1017\/CBO9780511551888.011","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The study of urban functional zoning is not only important for analyzing urban spatial structure but also for optimizing urban management and promoting scientific urban planning. Different areas undertaking different urban functions correspond to different traffic patterns and specific cycles. Here, a method named Urban Functional Zoning based on the Spatial Specificity (UFZ-SS) is proposed. The core of this method is to obtain urban spatial zoning through the specific cycles of traffic flows. First, UFZ-SS uses the Ensemble Empirical Modal Decomposition (EEMD) method to extract the specific periodic signal characteristics of traffic flows. Second, UFZ-SS calculates the contribution of online car-hailing traffic of different cycles in each zone. Then, the Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) is utilized to classify all spatial zones into different spatial partitions based on the contribution of each periodic signal. Finally, this study validates UFZ-SS with the online car-hailing traffic volume in northeast Chengdu, China. The results show that the periodic characteristics of traffic can be effectively extracted and analyzed by the EEMD method, and highly distinct and accurate urban spatial partitioning results can be derived by spatial clustering based on the measures of specific cycles. Moreover, with the assistance of Point of Interest (POI) data, we verify the functional zones and structural patterns, which further demonstrates the validity and rationality of urban functional zones identified by UFZ-SS. This study provides a new potential perspective for the identification of urban functional zones, which may lead to a better understanding of the urban spatial structure and even urban planning.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":251301777,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3390\/ijgi11080435","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2220-9964\/11\/8\/435\/pdf?version=1659360712","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common functional gastrointestinal disorder. It is characterized by abdominal pain or discomfort associated with altered bowel habits. The symptoms of IBS limit the patients in daily life and affect their quality of life considerably. The general aim of this PhD project was to elucidate the relationship between IBS symptoms and moderately increased physical activity in the short and long term. The other aims were to explore patients' experiences of the effects of physical activity in symptoms and of physical activity in general. A multimethod design was applied, combining physical measurements, questionnaires and qualitative patient interviews. Study I: In a randomized controlled trial, the physical activity group improved their IBS symptoms at 12 weeks in comparison to the control group. A larger proportion in the control group experienced symptom deterioration. Study II: At long-term follow-up after 5.2 (range 3.8-6.2) years, IBS symptoms and psychological parameters improved compared with baseline. Study III: A qualitative content analysis on effects of physical activity revealed three themes in each area. Gastrointestinal symptoms covered normalizing bowel movements; experiencing changes in abdominal pain; and handling gas and bloating. Extra-intestinal symptoms covered flexibility, strength, and pain modulation; modulating stress level and mood; and stabilizing energy. Quality of life covered overcoming weaknesses; stimuli and distraction; and selfstrengthening. Study IV: Two themes emerged in a hermeneutic analysis: requirements of physical activity and capability for physical activity. The first comprised the patients' motives for being physically active. The second theme described the possibility and resources to be physically active in everyday life. Conclusion: Increased physical activity improves gastrointestinal symptoms in IBS. Physical activity is associated with improved IBS symptoms and psychological parameters in the long term. Increased physical activity is a treatment option in IBS. In order to understand the hindering and motivating factors, it is important to take into account the patient's experiences of the effects of physical activity, as well as the requirements and capabilities for physical activity.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":57483876,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2800220950","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"It is well known that Europe does not accept the place of Muslims in the History of science. However, the new data obtained today, catalog studies have given a new perspective to the history of science. Fuat Sezgin, the famous historian sciences, has thought that science and technology are the common property of all humanity. Having devoted his life to showing the importance and place of Islam in the history of sciences and he brought a new perspective to it with his studies. He has achieved to a great extent the aim of demonstrating the share of Muslims in the common heritage with the Works he has written, the museums he has established and the instruments he has made. He also stated that Muslims develop some branches of science like maths, geometry, literatura, geography, poetry etc. as well as astronomy which they acquired knowledge from the Greeks an Indians. In addition, these he said that Muslims established new sciences and laid foundations pf these that have developed in Europe today. Aim of this article is to examine the Astronomy in the History of Islamic Science, which started from the first years of Islam and continued until the end of the 16th century. Sezgin tried to give place to the sixth volume of his German-based GAS, the 800-year scientific process of Muslims related to astronomy. Therefore, we tried to limit our research to only the sixth volume of Gas. After giving information about the birth, development and current state of astronomy in this volume, he has conveyed and discussed opinions about this science and the subjects of this science, especially from the undersecretaries, and made his own opinions together with his evidence. At the same time, the science of astronomy is transferred to the West and the stages of absorption are discussed in detail. He took the sources of Arab astronomy knowledge and mentioned Greek, Persian and Hind sources in chronological order. of his death in chronological order based on the death dates of the Islamic astronomical scholars. At the same time, the second volume of the catalog study \"Science and Technique in Islam\", his another work, talks about the astronomical tools and observatories made by Muslims. Although he examined the stages of observatories in his work in detail, he included the tools used in these observatories in detail. In the catalog study of Sezgin, it is seen that he emphasizes the instruments in the field of astronomy more than the observatories. We believe that this is a conscious choice. Because with the catalog work prepared for the promotion of the tools made, he aimed to allocate the approach that ignores the contribution of the Islamic world in the field of astronomy as in other sciences. For this reason, he saw the best way to demonstrate the scientific contribution of Muslim Arabs in the perspective of universal science, as scientific and technical tools. He uncovered the unknowns and underlined the aspects that should be known by translating the information not available in the works written in different languages in the science of astronomy as in other disciplines. Stating that astronomy was the pioneer of the history of Islamic sciences, he also made some discoveries as a result of his studies in this field. These are: the fact that the first observatories in history were established by Muslims, the level of observatories in the history of Islamic science in the modern world, the level of astrolabe models made by Muslims in history, the fact that the models of astrolabe in Europe could not be made, Muslims were at a very advanced level in terms of mechanical watches and the first hours that showed the minutes Copernicus's planetary theories were based on the planetary models of Muslim astronomers Shirazi, Satir and Tusi.

Treatment of human induced pluripotent stem cells with ML792 initiated changes associated with loss of pluripotency such as reduced expression of key pluripotency markers. To identify putative effector proteins and establish sites of SUMO modification, cells were engineered to stably express either SUMO1 or SUMO2 with TGG to KGG mutations that facilitate GlyGly-K peptide immunoprecipitation and identification. A total of 976 SUMO sites were identified in 427 proteins. STRING enrichment created 3 networks of proteins with functions in regulation of gene expression, ribosome biogenesis and RNA splicing, although the latter two categories represented only 5% of the total GGK peptide intensity. The remainder have roles in transcription and chromatin structure regulation. Many of the most heavily SUMOylated proteins form a network of zinc-finger transcription factors centred on TRIM28 and associated with silencing of retroviral elements. At the level of whole proteins there was only limited evidence for SUMO paralogue-specific modification, although at the site level there appears to be a preference for SUMO2 modification over SUMO1 in acidic domains. We show that SUMO is involved in the maintenance of the pluripotent state in hiPSCs and identify many chromatin-associated proteins as bona fide SUMO substrates in human induced pluripotent stem cells.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":235348961,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1101\/2020.12.22.423944","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1101\/2020.12.22.423944","status":"GREEN"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The long-stay intensive care unit (ICU) population may be at increased risk of adrenal insufficiency.\n\n\nOBJECTIVE\nWe aimed to determine whether adrenal dysfunction develops during the course of sepsis.\n\n\nDESIGN\nThis is a prospective observational longitudinal study.\n\n\nSETTING\nThe study was conducted in the ICU of a secondary\/tertiary care hospital.\n\n\nPATIENTS\nWe studied 51 consecutive mechanically ventilated patients with sepsis.\n\n\nINTERVENTION\nWe measured cortisol, ACTH, cortisol-binding globulin, cytokines, and cortisol 30 minutes after 1 \u03bcg ACTH(1-24), upon sepsis diagnosis and every 3 to 4 days, until Day 30 or until recovery or death.\n\n\nMAIN OUTCOME MEASURES\nWe looked for changes in baseline and stimulated cortisol levels and its relationship to ACTH levels, sepsis severity or survival.\n\n\nRESULTS\nBaseline and stimulated cortisol levels did not vary significantly. Septic patients with shock had higher baseline (20 \u00b1 6 vs 17 \u00b1 5 \u03bcg\/dL, P = .03) and stimulated cortisol levels (26 \u00b1 5 vs 23 \u00b1 6 \u03bcg\/dL, P = .04), compared with those without shock. On Day 1, ACTH levels could not predict cortisol levels (R(2) = 0.06, P = .08). ACTH levels increased significantly after Day 10 and, at this time point, they related to cortisol levels (R(2) = 0.35, P < .001). Development of septic shock, or resolution from it, was not associated with changes in baseline, stimulated cortisol levels, or the cortisol increment. There was much inpatient variability in the diagnosis of adrenal dysfunction at different time points.\n\n\nCONCLUSIONS\nTotal cortisol levels relate both to the severity and outcome of sepsis and remain fairly unchanged during the course of illness. Initially, cortisol levels are largely ACTH independent, whereas ACTH increases and correlates with cortisol levels later on. Adrenal dysfunction does not seem to be a major problem during the prolonged phase of sepsis. Although not significant, the variation in cortisol levels may be such that classification of patients varies, questioning the utility of arbitrary cut-offs to define adrenal dysfunction in septic patients.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":24955336,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2096846771","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1210\/jc.2014-2619","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jcem\/article-pdf\/99\/12\/4471\/9086207\/jcem4471.pdf","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Abstract Background Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex (DLPFC) has been identified as the seat of many synaptic changes in schizophrenia. Functional neuroimaging studies indicate inefficient recruitment of DLPFC, often termed as hypofrontality, that appears in conjunction with disrupted connectivity of DLPFC with other brain regions. Very Low Frequency Oscillations (VLFO or infraslow oscillations) stem from AMPA currents, and are thought to represent a slow, cyclic modulation of cortical gross excitability. These oscillations are phase-synchronised enabling long-distance communication. This synchrony fluctuates across time (dynamic), indicating state-shifts. Dynamic synchrony can be captured using variance of phase coherence (vPC). We aimed to isolate the brain regions showing abnormal vPC with right DLPFC in drug-na\u00efve first episode schizophrenia compared to healthy controls. Based on our prior work indicating fronto-insular dysconnectivity, we hypothesized that anterior insula would show the most disrupted dynamic phase coherence with DLPFC among all other brain regions. Methods 129 drug-na\u00efve patients with first episode of schizophrenia (FES) and 197 age- sex- and education-level matched healthy controls (HC) were recruited. Based on Dosenbach's atlas applied to 7.67 minutes (230 timepoints with TR=2 s) of eyes-open resting fMRI scan, we extracted timeseries of 160 functional network nodes, and identified right DLPFC with MNI coordinates (x=40,y=36,z=29). Wavelet-transformation was done to enable time-frequency analysis that decomposed the timeseries data into 3 bins of very low frequency oscillations (0.02\u20130.04 Hz, 0.04\u20130.06 Hz, 0.06\u20130.08 Hz). We then estimated phase coherence between DLPFC and other 159 regions at each timepoint, and the variance (vPC) across the entire acquisition. Regions showing aberrant vPC with right DLPFC were identified using FDR corrected 2-tailed p<0.05 as the threshold of statistical significance in a two-sample t test comparing HC and FES groups. A two-step clustering procedure using likelihood-distance measure was employed to stratify sub-groups of FES with or without vPC disruption. The resulting subgroups were compared based on clinical symptom scores using van der Gaag's 5-factor PANSS model. Results The FES group showed a significant reduction (FDR corrected p = 0.03) in vPC between right DLPFC and left anterior insula within the frequency band: 0.02 - 0.04 Hz. The rDLPFC-lAI path can be termed as a long-distance connection based on anatomical distance measure (82.6 mm, compared to a median of 75mm) when compared to HCs. FES group was split into 2 subgroups using the clustering procedure. FES-2 (n=51) had higher vPC of rDLPFC-lAI connectivity compared to HC (Hedges' g: -2.0, p=0.001) while FES-1 (n=78) had lower vPC compared to HC (Hedges' g: 0.47, p=0.009). FES-1 had more 'emotional' and 'positive symptoms' but had similar symptom loadings in other PANSS domains compared to FES-2. Discussion Reduced variability of phase coherence between anterior insula and DLPFC in schizophrenia confirms our prior hypothesis of Salience Executive Loop dysfunction in this illness. Current results indicate that aberrant connectivity with anterior insula is the major lateral prefrontal disruption even in a drug na\u00efve state at rest. Further, this aberration seems to be specific to infraslow rather than other frequency bands, raising the possibility that this may be a key mechanism of modulating overall cortical excitability in schizophrenia. It is possible that this dysfunction is specific to a subgroup with more psychotic symptoms at first presentation.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":261833384,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2794770866","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1093\/schbul\/sby015.206","PubMedCentral":"5888746","ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/schizophreniabulletin\/article-pdf\/44\/suppl_1\/S82\/25465712\/sby015.206.pdf","status":"HYBRID"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The workload characteristics of content-based image retrieval are poorly suited to existing storage architectures. This is particularly true for discard-based search, where images are filtered on-demand, potentially at the storage devices themselves (an active disk technique referred to as early discard). In general, discard-based search is a highly concurrent, sequential, and read-only workload, making it ideally suited for JBOD (\"just a bunch of disks\"), as opposed to a more familiar RAID configuration. Further, as with most image databases, no specific order is imposed on the retrieved images. In the context of discard-based search, such any-order semantics introduce a variety of opportunities to the storage system designer (e.g., an I\/O coalescing technique called \"bandwagon synchronization\"). This paper examines the storage workloads of discard-based search, and discusses the implications for a new storage system specifically designed for content-based image retrieval. In addition, representative synthetic workloads are used to demonstrate the efficiency of JBOD over RAID, and to quantify the benefits of bandwagon synchronization. We show that JBOD achieves 80\u201390% of an array's bandwidth (depending on the level of I\/O concurrency and the average object size), compared to 40\u201380% for RAID-0.

+{"text":"John 17: 20-26 ONE OF THE MOST COMPELLING CHARACTERISTICS of God as he reveals himself in Scripture is that he speaks, converses, and is eminently social. He calls the world into being and addresses its creatures with words of exhortation, judgment, and grace, inviting the human family back to a fellowship that has been lost and to adoption into his divine community. It is the Community of God that begs our attention in the Gospel of John. The Father and the Son are seen to be conversing within the divine Household, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit interweaving their distinctive patterns of personhood within an essential unity, and displaying a characteristic attitude of love and interpersonal communion as servants of one another, always glorifying and deferring to one another. This remarkable fact, which emerges from a close examination of Jesus' dialogues with the Father in the Gospel (see the present writer's The Trinity in the Gospel of John: A Thematic Commentary on the Fourth Gospel [Grand Rapids: Baker Book House, 1986]), describes a God who converses internally as a dynamic and inexhaustible divine Society. This portrait of the social God also unveils the essentially social character of the creation God has made and explains why New Testament ethics, and biblical ethics as a whole, exhorts the society of the faithful to become servants of God and of one another, and thereby to place themselves at the disposal of God and the world. Hospitality and being there for the other are, according to the Gospel of John, distinctively characteristic of the persons of the Triune Family in their relationship to each other within the essential unity that constitutes them as one God. True discipleship is evidenced as the followers of Jesus place themselves at the disposal of the Triune Community and reflect the image of the God who is essentially social and faithful to his word. The disciples become genuinely personal and communal creatures by obedient response to Jesus who, as Son of God, discloses the personal and communal nature of the divine Triunity. The Gospel provides the original pattern for the new community of disciples to follow by describing the social nature of God as divine Community. This is true not only of John but also is implicit in all Scripture, which attests the social nature of God and creation in biblical exhortations to love and serve God and neighbor and to care for the earth. In the larger view of Scripture God is heard to converse not only with his people but also within himself as divine Society.

The discrepancies between texts and within the same text, together with the ambiguity and lacunae in prescriptions, show that women's identities in the patrilineal family were continuously contested and reshaped in the preimperial and early imperial periods. Major themes explored include: the fragmentation and fluidity of maternal roles, the tension between patrilineal principles and natural feelings, the ambivalent roles of divorced mothers and remarried mothers, the systematic suppression of mothers of concubine status, and the intricate linkage between the wife's status and the mother's status. The changes and ambiguities emphasized in the paper have important implications for our understanding of the later evolution of the mourning system.\n Cet article s'interesse aux prescriptions relatives au deuil des meres dans le Yili et le Liji; l'objectif est de mettre en evidence la complexite et le caractere evolutif du statut des meres pendant les siecles qui ont vu les debuts de la codification du systeme de deuil en Chine.

+{"text":"Bernd Hamacher, Offenbarung und Gewalt: Literarische Aspekte kultureller Krisen um 1800. Munich: Wuhelm Fink, 2010. 437 pp. Since the invocation of the muse in the opening verse of Western literature's founding song, the authority of the divine has underwritten literary voice. Long after the cultural setting of the Iliad has passed into oblivion, poetic creativity maintains its reference to the divine. Indeed, even the historical moment commonly identified with a radical attack on divine authority - the Enlightenment - cannot do without such a legitimating instance. The foremost medium of divine inspiration in the eighteenth century, meanwhile, is not the dance of the muses, but the word of a transcendent God, who reveals himself in speech and in scripture. The literary ramifications of divine intervention form the subject of Bernd Hamacher's Offenbarung und Gewalt: Literarische Aspekte kultureller Krisen um 1800. In this study, Hamacher cuts a swath through the Age of Goethe, investigating the particular valence the act of revelation assumes in literary and philosophical texts. Hamacher's interest does not pertain to explicitly theological or religious debates, but to attitudes toward violence in the literary depiction of revelation. This study investigates a broad spectrum of canonical authors who articulate differing views toward the potential for violence intrinsic to revelation. In the course of the investigation, Hamacher shows how the semantic range of the concept itself was expanded beyond the act of supermundane intervention to include human modes of creativity and education. For authors from Lessing and Kant to Kleist and Goethe, revelation entails a rupture within ordinary modes of intelligibility - a rupture whose violence can either be subdued or embraced. Literature serves as a particularly apposite medium for reflection on the relationship between revelation and violence insofar as it is able to render the cosmos a world of signs and thus to relate the anodyne or destructive effects of revelation. Working with this rather capacious notion of revelation allows Hamacher to treat the entire canon of thinkers and writers around 1800. Such an ambition leads to chapters that vary radically in length and detail. The volume opens with a presentation of the analytic concepts foundational to Hamacher's study. In addition to a critical discussion of the recent work of the eminent Egyptologist Jan Assmann, Hamacher presents his argument for considering violence and revelation as disruptions within a given semiotic order, as rifts in the fabric of social communication. As the ensuing in-depth treatment of Lessing demonstrates, the nexus of revelation and violence enters the purview of this analysis primarily insofar as they become the subject of literature. Indeed, Hamacher aims in this chapter to demonstrate that Lessing's mature thought makes literature into the medium of revelation, thereby quelling any potential for violence. The location of revelation within the immanent sphere of human affairs also characterizes the developments that preoccupy the subsequent chapters. Brief treatments of such figures as Hamann and Herder are placed alongside lengthy engagements with Holderlin, Kant, and Fichte. \u2026","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":170365265,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2047146440","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1353\/gyr.2012.0026","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

It was a journey to open my eyes the way of using lights. I experienced different types of theatre that trained me the way to deal with architecture and environment. I also explore various characters' light equipment that I hadn't used before I came here. I tried new things as much as I can, which the classes encouraged me to break the shell. I designed lights eleven pieces in the University of California San Diego. I decided to show five plays and two dance pieces which have different ideas. All shows went through the debate with the creative team from at least three months to six months. Through this process, the team developed from the script which is just text for the play and the concept of movement for the dance show.

It is perhaps in the last that the distinctive Italian tradition in scholarship is most prominent. The conclusions reached tend to be suggestive rather than assertive, but it is entirely clear that Del Verme believes that Christianity, at least as reflected by the texts he examines, remained within an essentially (Hellenistic) Jewish milieu for a period considerably longer than many scholars have tended to assume. This book calls for a much clearer reconstruction of the tradition history behind the Didache, and clearer working hypotheses as to its relationship with other early Christian and Jewish writings. Particularly if as many documents as Del Verme argues, or assumes, emanate from Antioch on the Orontes, there is a basis for reconstructing not merely the gradual separation of Christianity from Judaism, but also some of the conflicts within early Christianity, and the diversity of Jewish influences bearing upon these developments. The translation is of uneven quality, with ungrammatical and ambiguous sentences is places. The proof-reading is also inadequate, particularly in passages using Greek and Hebrew fonts. These diminish the overall quality of the book, but it is nonetheless an important contribution to scholarship on a range of issues.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":170538777,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2142490448","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1111\/J.1468-2265.2007.00308_9.X","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The optimal multi-energy coordinated scheduling, in which uncertainties of renewable energy generation and electricity demand are described by uncertainty intervals, is considered within the capacity planning model. To solve the capacity planning problem while considering the optimal scheduling with uncertainties, a two-level optimisation approach is proposed by integrating interval mixed integer linear programming for scheduling into the multi-objective particle swarm optimisation for capacity planning.

+{"text":"Purpose. The aim of this work is to show whether or not a relationship exist among the different volumetric strain quantities and to assess also whether the volumetric quantities are related to the different types of volumetric strain curves under failure-deformation process of hard brittle rocks. Methods. Tests were conducted to determine the post failure stress-strain curves of different 83 rocks types under uniaxial compression using a closed loop servo-controlled testing system in accordance to ISRM (International Society for Rock Mechanics) suggested standards. Findings. The result show that the volumetric strains quantities are related by power form law. It was established that there is a connection between the volumetric strains quantities and the types of the volumetric strains curves. The first type volumetric strain curves contains the Class I and progress to Class II while the type three volumetric strain curves are entirely Class II rock. Originality. No experimental results have been published, which describe the connection between the type of volumetric strain curves and volumetric strain quantities or attempt to relate the volumetric strain quantities with type of post-failure stress-strain characteristic curves response of rocks under uniaxial compression. Most researchers in rock mechanics studies have so far been focused on the crack damage stress (\u03c3cd) and uniaxial compressive strength (\u03c3c) of characteristic stress levels during compression in which \u03c3cd = \u0190cd and \u03c3cd = \u03c3c to study deformation behavior of rocks. Practical implications. It was also observed that the difficulty in obtaining the post-failure curves increases from type one to type two and type three volumetric strain curves respectively. It could guide personnel conducting tests using closedloop servo-controlled testing system, if dangerous situation or equipment damage could occur (especially with the third type deformation process) so that testing is performed safely. It could also be useful in understand-ding the total process of specimen deformation and estimation of the rocks brittleness (e.g. brittle for Class II and less brittle or ductile for Class I).","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":239463175,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The RRS algorithm is based on the initial high-efficiency feature of random sampling and it attempts to maintain this high efficiency by constantly \"restarting\" random sampling with adjusted sample spaces. Besides the high efficiency, the RRS algorithm is robust to the effect of random noise and trivial parameters in the objective function because of its root in random sampling. These features are very important for the efficient optimization of network protocol configuration. The performance of RRS is demonstrated with the tests on a suite of benchmark functions.

The weakness of this approach lies in the fact that the body forces due to the electrical field are ignored in the equation of motion and the work terms are not included in the conservation law for energy balance. Lastly, a general formulation including the electric field and Van der Waals forces between a solid surface and the fluid in the Navier Stokes equation was written but not applied to a particular geometry.

BACKGROUND Aspirin antiplatelet effect is not uniform in all patients, and the mechanism by which some patients are in vitro resistant to aspirin remains to be determined. However, it has been suggested that polymorphisms of platelet membrane glycoproteins might contribute to aspirin resistance. METHODS Ninety-eight patients on aspirin (160 mg\/day) for at least one month were enrolled. Aspirin resistance was measured by the platelet function analyzer (PFA)-100 analyzer; genotyping of the three polymorphisms was performed using a polymerase chain reaction-based restriction fragment-length polymorphism analysis. RESULTS Using a collagen\/epinephrine\u2013coated cartridge on the PFA-100, the prevalence of aspirin resistance was 29.6% (n 29). Aspirin-resistant patients were significantly more often Pl (86.2%; n 25) than sensitive patients (59.4%; n 41; p 0.01). Of the 29 patients, 25 were reevaluated after having taken 300 mg\/day aspirin for at least one month. Only 11 patients still have nonprolonged collagen epinephrine closure time, and these were all Pl. No relation was found between resistance status and C-5T Kozak or C807T genotypes. CONCLUSIONS Platelets homozygous for the Pl allele appear to be less sensitive to inhibitory action of low-dose aspirin. This differential sensitivity to aspirin may have potential clinical implications whereby specific antiplatelet therapy may be best tailored according to the patient's Pl genotype.

The level of pollution depends on many factors, notably the inspired gas composition, the minute volume vented, the adequacy of theatre ventilation, and the duration of the operating session. Moreover, there are variations in concentration within a theatre, the greatest pollution being in the immediate proximity of expiratory valves. Typical average levels of contamination are 15 parts per million (0.0015%) for halothane and 170 p.p.m. for nitrous oxide1. The tissues of theatre personnel equilibrate with these contaminants and it is likely that regular working in theatre results in chronic low tissue concentrations of the agents in regular use. To determine whether this is harmful, morbidity and mortality figures for theatre workers have been analysed in a number of studies.

In the past 3 years attention has been focused on the effect of anaesthetic practice on obstetric history. Askrog and Harvald4 found that the wives of Danish male anaesthetists had a greater frequency of spontaneous abortion after their husbands had started work in anaesthesia.

What was unique about this scoring system was that it did not require sophisticated tools or equipment as used in prior vaginal studies by researchers such as Masters and Johnson. Up to the point of Leiblum et al's study, vulvovaginal atrophy (now termed genitourinary syndrome of menopause) was determined in a typical ambulatory setting by the postmenopausal women's complaints such as dryness, burning, vulvar pruritus, feeling of pressure, vaginal spotting from a friable vaginal mucosa, malodorous discharge, recurrent vaginitis, dyspareunia, postcoital bleeding, bladder symptoms, and discomfort with the wearing of tight undergarments. Patient complaints would be confirmed by the clinician's pelvic examination findings that may have included a pale, dry, and smooth vaginal epithelium with loss of rugation, patchy erythema, epithelial inflammation, inflammatory discharge, a friable vaginal surface, and a vaginal vault shortened and narrowed that had limited distensibility. For clinicians, there was, however, no tool to quantify the degree of atrophy noted (mild, moderate, or severe) and how to objectively monitor the success of treatment response with various interventions. What Leiblum et al piloted was a tool to quantify the degree of vaginal atrophy noted on pelvic examination by a nominal scale that graded findings from a low score of 6 to a high score of 15 (the lower the score, the more atrophy noted on pelvic examination). The scale took into account (1) vulvovaginal skin elasticity and turgor, (2) pubic hair amount, (3) labial fullness, (4) introital diameter, (5) vaginal mucosa health\u2014thin and friable versus rugated, and (6) vaginal depth, and scored each of these variables on a scale ranging from 1 to 3. They used this vaginal atrophy index to determine the effect of sexual activity on vaginal health.

+{"text":"The time-honoured division of anaemias into primary and secondary types is gradually being enlarged so as to further classify them according to the response of the bone marrow to the disease process. Most of the anaemias, whether primary or secondary, do show a considerable response; the blood picture usually revealing anisocytosis, poikilocytosis, and, in severe cases, normoblasts, megaloblasts, etc. In certain cases, however, this activity of the bone marrow may be reduced, or completely suppressed, and the blood picture would then show little or no signs of regeneration. This is the aplastic type. This aplasia may be secondary to some known destructive agent, such as radium, roentgenray, benzol, tritrotoluol, arsphenamine, or to the toxins developed by intestinal parasites or by sepsis: it may occur late in Banti's disease or in the leukaemias, and in myelophthisic anaemia (multiple myeloma) or it may be terminal in pernicious anaemia and in haemolytic jaundice (ictero-anaemia).

From fieldwork with ethnic minority farmers in upland northern Vietnam growing star anise, Cinnamomum cassia (often marketed as cinnamon), and black cardamom, and from a content analysis of digital marketing websites, it becomes clear that astute practices of commodification and de-commodification are invoked at different nodes along these spice global commodity chains.

Perennial grasses are the key to the economic and environmental sustainability of pastures for livestock, and in arid and semi-arid environments, they can provide multiple ecosystem services more effectively than production systems based on annual crops. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of different defoliation frequencies on forage production and nutritive value of the Phalaris aquatica L. variety Soukra under field conditions in Tunis, Tunisia, over a period of 12 weeks. We tested four defoliation frequencies: (1) severe, (2) moderate, (3) infrequent, and (4) control. The growth responses measured were plant tiller number (NT), dry matter production (DM), and relative leaf regrowth rate (RLR). DM under the severe and moderate defoliation frequencies was 7% and 41% less than under control defoliation, respectively. However, DM production under infrequent defoliation was 91% and 43% higher than under severe and moderate defoliation. The relative leaf regrowth rate was affected by defoliation frequency; the highest regrowth rate was under severe treatment. However, tillering of P. aquatica was reduced under the severe and moderate frequencies of defoliation. Under increased defoliation frequencies, concentrations of secondary metabolites significantly decreased; total polyphenol content, flavonoid content, and tannin\u00a0contents were higher in control and infrequent than in moderate and severe treatments. Antioxidant activity also decreased significantly with defoliation compared to the control treatment. There were no significant differences (P > 0.05) in ABTS (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) among the defoliation frequencies. Pearson's r correlation and PCA (Principal component analysis) data revealed that growth parameters, secondary metabolites, and antioxidant activity have positive and negative correlations in distinguishing the control and defoliation treatments. Results indicate that P. aquatica management should target moderate harvest rates in the adoption of perennial grass forage production systems in Tunisia. Use of perennial grasses for forage production can contribute to sustained production, food security, and rural livelihoods, and move farming systems towards providing multiple economic, environmental, and social benefits.

+{"text":"Botulinum neurotoxin serotype A (BoNT\/A), one of seven serotypes of botulinum neurotoxin, is taken up by neurons of the peripheral nervous system. Within the neurons it catalyzes cleavage of the synaptosomal-associated protein having a mass of 25kDa, SNAP-25, thereby blocking neurotransmission. BoNT\/A has been shown to interact with SV2, as well as gangliosides that are often found in lipid rafts. Lipid rafts are microdomains that can be found on the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane and are enriched in cholesterol and glycosphingolipids. To determine whether lipid rafts were needed for BoNT\/A activity, those associated with the plasma membranes of murine N2a neuroblastoma cells were disrupted using either the cyclic oligomer methyl-\u03b2cyclodextrin or the polyene filipin. Disruption of cholesterol containing lipid rafts by either reagent did not prevent the action of BoNT\/A on murine neuroblastoma N2a cells, in fact activity was enhanced. While our results indicate that disruption of lipid rafts enhances BoNT\/A activity, disruption of clathrin-dependent endocytosis appeared to be inhibitory. In addition to disruption of lipid rafts enhancing BoNT\/A activity, it also induced neuritogenesis of N2a cells. Therefore, studies were performed to determine the type of process formation induced by disruption of lipid rafts by either M\u03b2CD or filipin. Because ganglioside composition has been shown to change during neuronal differentiation, the question of whether process expression was accompanied by changes in ganglioside content or subcellular distribution was addressed. The results indicate that the processes formed were axonal in nature and their expression was accompanied by changes in both ganglioside content and subcellular localization.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":87608041,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2311539431","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Abstract This paper examines policy responses in higher education in the months of March and April 2020 during the rapid unfolding of the COVID-19 pandemic. The purpose is to map responses and compare levels of coordination between three actors\u2014the Canadian federal government, the Ontario provincial government, and Ontario's publicly funded colleges and universities\u2014and to consider the policy implications of these initial responses for higher education's future recovery from the pandemic. Conceptualizing COVID-19 as both a wicked problem and, in the Canadian context, a complex intergovernmental problem, the paper draws on over 200 data points from public announcements made by these three actors. It uses an emergency management framework to present a chronological comparison of actors' actions during the response and mitigation phases focusing on four areas: academic mobility, teaching and learning, research initiatives, and student support. Actions to support higher education were largely dispersed and uncoordinated in the two key months of March and April 2020. Colleges and universities were proactive in restricting academic mobility, adapting teaching and learning, and providing student support. There was some alignment with the federal government's responses, although federal announcements focused more on research initiatives and, latterly, student support. The Ontario government did not appear to play a significant role in shaping the initial higher education responses to the pandemic. Despite the disconnect between responses, we argue that all three actors will play an equally critical role in the future recovery and necessary rethinking of the functions and purpose of higher education.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":225347029,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3082184244","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1080\/25741292.2020.1813359","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1080\/25741292.2020.1813359","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Objective: Accurate extraction of breast cancer patients' phenotypes is important for clinical decision support and clinical research. This study developed and evaluated cancer domain pre-trained CancerBERT models for extracting breast cancer phenotypes from clinical texts. We also investigated the effect of customized cancer-related vocabulary on the performance of CancerBERT models. Materials and Methods: A cancer-related corpus from breast cancer patients was extracted from the electronic health records of a local hospital. We annotated named entities in 200 pathology reports and 50 clinical notes for eight cancer phenotypes for fine-tuning and evaluation. We kept pre-training the BlueBERT model on the cancer corpus with expanded vocabularies (using both term frequency-based and manually reviewed methods) to obtain CancerBERT models. The CancerBERT models were evaluated and compared with other baseline models on the cancer phenotype extraction task. Results: All CancerBERT models outperformed all other models on the cancer phenotyping NER task. Both CancerBERT models with customized vocabularies outperformed the CancerBERT with the original BERT vocabulary. The CancerBERT model with manually reviewed customized vocabulary achieved the best performance with macro-F1 scores equal to 0.876 (95% CI, 0.873-0.879) and 0.904 (95% CI, 0.902-0.906) for exact match and lenient match, respectively. Conclusions: The CancerBERT models were developed to extract the cancer phenotypes in clinical notes and pathology reports. The results validated that using customized vocabulary may further improve the performances of domain specific BERT models in clinical NLP tasks. The CancerBERT models developed in the study would further help clinical decision support. INTRODUCTION Breast cancer is one of the most prevalent and lethal cancers for women in the US. It is estimated that there will be about 250,000 patients diagnosed with breast cancer each year and around 40,000 deaths due to breast cancer [1]. The development of precision medicine has contributed new approaches to the better diagnosis, prognosis and treatments of breast cancers, with the ultimate goal of selecting optimal treatments for individual patients [2-4]. A representative example is the targeted therapy for breast cancer, which uses different medications to treat patients with different hormone receptors status, such as human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) and estrogen receptor (ER). The application of precision medicine and its related translational research need the support of large amounts of cancerspecific patient clinical information. The widely adopted electronic health record systems (EHRs) are fundamental sources to provide longitudinal and multi-perspective patient clinical data, which includes patients' demographics, lab results, disease progress, treatments, and outcomes. Some of these data are stored in the codified (structured) part of EHRs; however, a large amount of information is distributed in the narrative text data, such as the clinical notes and lab reports [5]. How to effectively extract the target information from the narrative text part of the EHRs data remains an important research topic [6-7]. Previous studies (detailed in Background section) focused mainly on the rule-based and conventional machine learning methods. The state-of-the-art language models such as bidirectional encoder representations from transformers (BERT) [8] have shown significant improvement in many NLP tasks; however, there is no cancer domain specific BERT model for downstream clinical NLP tasks, such as cancer phenotype extraction. In addition, there is no investigation of out-of-vocabulary (OOV) issue for BERT-based model in cancer domain. Objective To address these gaps in current status of the cancer phenotyping extraction, our contributions in this study include: 1) We developed and evaluated cancer domain specific BERT models (CancerBERT) that are able to extract comprehensive collections of breast cancer related phenotypes (i.e., Hormone receptor type, Hormone receptor status, Tumor size, Tumor site, Cancer grade, Histological type, Cancer laterality and Cancer stage) from both clinical notes and pathology reports in EHRs. Our CancerBERT models significantly outperformed other existing BERT-based models (e.g., BlueBERT, BioBERT, CharBERT) on our name entity recognition (NER) task to extract target cancer phenotypes for breast cancer patients. 2) We also evaluated different methods to address the OOV issue of original BERT models. Specifically, we used two approaches (domain knowledge-based and statistics-based) to generate and add additional cancer specific words that were missing in the original BERT vocabulary. We found that additional cancer specific words can further improve performance of the CancerBERT model on the NER task. Background Previous works have developed different approaches to extract information from narrative data in EHRs. Manual chart review is a feasible approach to extract the phenotypes from the clinical texts; however, it is time-consuming and not cost-effective [9-10]. Researchers have developed approaches based on natural language processing (NLP) to finish the task automatically. Before the deep learning era, established studies mainly focused on rule-based, traditional machine learning-based methods, depending on the characteristic of the data and specific tasks. Nguyen, et al. developed a rule-based pipeline in 2015 to extract cancer-related phenotypes, including histological type, cancer grade, primary site and laterality, from the textual contents of the pathology reports in EHRs [11]. The F1 scores for different variables range from 0.61 to 0.93, and a message producer\/consumer module was integrated into the pipeline to enable the real-time processing of the reports. Yala, et al. developed a machine learning algorithm to classify phenotypes of breast cancers. N-grams were used as features and boosting algorithm was applied to do the classification of phenotype status. The performances were robust, with F1 scores ranging from 0.57 to 1 for different categories. However, the pipeline was designed for judging the status of phenotypes, mainly binary classification; no detail information in the text can be captured [12]. The DeepPhe software was developed in 2017 to extract cancer phenotypes from clinical records [13]. It could extract a wide range of breast cancer phenotypes from the EHRs through different approaches, such as, rules, domain knowledge bases, and machine learning methods. The inter-annotator agreement (IAA) of the DeepPhe range from 0.2 to 0.96 [13]. Qiu, et al. developed a convolutional neural network (CNN) model to extract the cancer primary site from pathology reports, and the CNN model outperformed the traditional frequency vector space approach with a micro-F score of 0.722 [14]. A coarse-to-fine multi-task CNN model was further proposed to extract the cancer primary site, laterality and grade from the pathology reports at the same time; this model obtained an F-1 score of 0.775 for extracting cancer primary site [15]. These studies focused mainly on the rule-based and conventional machine learning methods. The latest BERT-based models have been developed in recent years and show great advantages in NLP tasks compared to the traditional feature-based machine learning approaches [8]. For BERT-based models, previous works have shown that using biomedical domain specific text as training data can obtain better performance compared to models trained on generaldomain language for tasks related to the biomedical domain [16-19]. In clinical domain, studies have explored using the advanced BERT-based models to solve clinical information extraction tasks [16-17,20]. These studies are mainly focusing on testing the BERT model on clinical benchmark datasets, such as Informatics for Integrating Biology and the Bedside (i2b2), SemEval, MedSTS. Currently, only few studies have applied the advanced deep learning models include BERT to extract the cancer phenotypes for cancer patients. For example, BERT models were applied to extract the clinical information for breast cancer patients from Chinese clinical texts and achieved F1 scores of 0.786 to 1 for different clinical concepts [21]. It is known that Chinese and English are different, and there are no existing studies that have explored the BERT-based models to extract cancer phenotypes from clinical notes and pathology reports in English. Furthermore, most BERT-based models deal with the out-of-vocabulary (OOV) issue by tokenizing an unknown word into multiple sub-words that exist in the vocabulary. In this case, the sub-word representations may not capture the semantics of the whole word [22]. Several studies explored to improve the OOV issue by either using character-level word embedding [22-23] or building a brand-new domain specific vocabulary to best match the training corpus [24]. These studies obtained promising results in benchmark tasks, but they need to train the models from scratch, which need a huge training corpus and computing sources.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":237290126,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":"2108.11303"},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"It is no coincidence that realism in its classical form was a child of the Second World War. In Hans Morgenthau's formulation, realist theory assumes that states act as individuals (\"Germany attacked Poland\"), that they have clear interests, and that they expand their power when and where they can in ways that have their roots in \"human nature.\" International relations, in short, are conducted between rational actors with (as an economist would say) relatively simple utility functions. According to Kenneth Waltz, states seek to ensure their own survival in a more or less anarchic world, either by increasing their own internal strength or by \"external balancing,\" in other words, forging alliances with other states. Cooperation between states can never be universal because a combination of states is only meaningful when it is directed against another state or a combination of states. At all times, the national security of the individual state must be paramount. A more radical theory (\"offensive realism\") is that great powers always aim at more than mere survival; they seek hegemony, making conflicts between great powers inevitable. Peace can be based only on a balance of power in which each would-be hegemon's acquisitive impulses are checked by other states' individual or combined capacities for retaliation. The uniting theme of this volume is that foreign policy is more commonly the product of competing individuals and interest groups acting within a complex institutional framework and, as a result, strategy is not always commensurate with available means and room for maneuver.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":159942378,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2159308338","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1017\/CBO9780511778551.008","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Infliximab is an effective treatment for active luminal and fistulating Crohn's disease and is emerging as a treatment for ulcerative colitis. Its use in much of the world is, however, limited by cost; currently, a single infusion of infliximab 5 mg\/kg costs for the drug alone about $A3000 for a 70 kg person. In most parts of Australia, infliximab is not publicly funded and is only available through tightly controlled budgets, generally in specialist centers, or on a case-by-case basis for those with private insurance. It is, therefore, important that the limited supply is prescribed in situations in which the drug is most likely to be effective. How then should we decide which patients with Crohn's disease to treat with infliximab? There are a number of principles to consider. The first principle is that patients should have failed to respond to, or be unable to tolerate proven cheaper therapies. Thiopurines are an effective treatment for Crohn's disease and are well tolerated by most. Furthermore, methotrexate induces and maintains remission in Crohn's disease. Therefore, before giving infliximab, patients should have had at least 3 months of treatment with a thiopurine at an adequate dose, proof of which may require measuring concentrations of 6-thioguanine nucleotides. If thiopurines fail or are poorly tolerated, at least 8 weeks of parenteral methotrexate at a therapeutic dose should be considered before using infliximab. Do rules such as these have any problems and are they too rigid? The answer to both of these questions is clearly 'yes'. First, the above regimen requires at least 5 months of failed treatment before giving infliximab. Therefore, patients must either endure symptoms, or remain on steroids for a period of time that many would consider unacceptable. Second, if evidence emerges to support the 'top-down' approach to the management of Crohn's disease (where early aggressive therapy might alter the natural history of the disease as it does in rheumatoid arthritis), delaying infliximab usage may adversely affect the long-term prognosis of such patients. However, it must also be remembered that infliximab is not without risk. Its use is associated with reactivation of tuberculosis which is endemic in Asia-Pacific, and, in one series, with a drug-related mortality of about 1%. The second principle, based upon health economic arguments, is that treatment should be given to those patients who are most likely to respond. Response to infliximab requires that patients have active inflammation and it is therefore important to identify patients whose symptoms are caused by active disease. This, in itself, can be challenging not least because functional symptoms are a common problem in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) affecting up to 60% of patients with Crohn's disease. The recent development of a questionnaire to help identify patients with IBD whose symptoms are largely functional remains unvalidated; currently, taking the alternative approach of confirming active inflammation is more likely to be successful. To do this, endoscopic examination remains the gold standard; however, it is an invasive, costly, and potentially dangerous procedure. Likewise, radiological assessment can be time consuming and expensive, and may involve exposure to ionizing radiation. What then of noninvasive measures of inflammation? Indices that rely on changes in hepatic protein synthetic patterns in response to systemic cytokine exposure, such as C-reactive protein (CRP), are often used but have limitations. In trials that have failed to meet their primary endpoints, posthoc analysis of the subgroup of patients with raised CRP has suggested that such patients may be more likely to respond to biological therapies. Measurement of neutrophil-derived proteins in the feces is a more direct non-invasive measure of intestinal inflammation. Indeed calprotectin and lactoferrin appear to be good markers of inflammation and, at least for calprotectin, have been shown to correlate well with endoscopy, luminal white cell excretion, and intestinal premeability. While neither blood nor fecal markers are perfect, it is to be hoped that prospective evaluation of these and other non-invasive tests, likely in combination, proves them to be sensitive and specific measures of inflammatory disease. This may enable quick, safe, and inexpensive identification of patients likely to respond to infliximab. The third principle is to identify genotypic, phenotypic, or behavioral characteristics of patients that are known to associate strongly with response or non-response to infliximab. Pharmacogenetic analyses have contributed little to this question, but a recently developed apoptotic pharmacogenetics index shows some promise. Smoking has a deleterious effect on Crohn's disease and has also been shown in most studies to be associated with reduced efficacy of infliximab, albeit modestly. While it is untenable to exclude smokers from infliximab treatment, these data support consideration of smoking cessation intervention prior to the use of infliximab. Other factors, such as disease location and phenotype, disease duration, history of previous surgery, and evidence of major depressive illness may all influence response to infliximab to a lesser extent. However, unlike smoking status, it is not possible to change any of these variables. Accordingly, they are of limited value in deciding who should and should not receive infliximab. In this issue of the Journal, Pearce and Lawrance describe their experience of using infliximab in a group of patients in whom they have attempted to apply the first two principles above. They conscientiously ensured active inflammatory disease was present and reported apparently excellent response and remission rates. Are these results really better than those reported from large randomized clinical trials and should they represent the benchmark that we should all aspire to achieve? Numerically, they are better than published remission and response rates from placebo controlled trials (Table 1). It must be noted, however, that there is no statistically significant difference between previously reported rates and those described by Pearce and Lawrance. Moreover, in the current study, two patients were reclassified postcolectomy from Crohn's disease to ulcerative Accepted for publication 16 March 2007.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":37121343,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2072737017","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1111\/j.1440-1746.2007.05003.x","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdfdirect\/10.1111\/j.1440-1746.2007.05003.x","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Existing adaptive traffic signal control (ATSC) systems rely on dedicated fixed-point sensors, such as inductive loop detectors or video cameras, for measuring traffic demands and discharge saturation flow rates. The cost associated with installation, operation, and maintenance of these sensors is one of the factors that limit the deployment of ATSCs. The emergence of connected vehicles (CVs), which continuously broadcast their speed, position, heading, and other information to other vehicles and to roadside infrastructure, provides an opportunity to reduce the reliance of ATSC on data from fixed sensors and potentially to reduce ATSC deployment costs. However, so that existing ATSC systems can operate by using CV data, a methodology is needed for estimating demands and saturation flow rate based on CV data instead of fixed sensor data. This paper focuses on estimating the time-varying saturation flow rate for individual lane groups at signalized intersections solely on the basis of CV data. The accuracy of a proposed methodology is quantified through microsimulation for a range of traffic conditions, lane group configurations, and levels of market penetration (LMP) of CVs. The analysis shows that the proposed methodology can capture temporal variations in the saturation flow rate caused by road incidents, queues spilling back from downstream bottlenecks, and lane closures. The evaluation results show that the mean absolute relative error of the lane group saturation flow rate ranged from approximately 2% to 9% when LMP = 20% and only 1% to 2% when LMP = 100%.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":108213642,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"104221572","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3141\/2487-06","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

They affect the younger generations in the society throughout their development and are also becoming more varied and entrenched. Although most inequalities are linked to socio-economic factors such as income, access to material resources, educational attainment, and social class, new emergent types of inequalities are developing rapidly: spatial segregation, residence status (native-born or immigrant) (Barnes, J.

The use of in-depth evidence about the nature and variations in experiences of inequalities by individuals, families, communities within and across European countries is an effective way to provide up-to-date insights into evolving inequalities and the social problems that arise. This paper shifts the focus of the debate about the changing nature of inequalities in modern societies by drawing upon qualitative and mixed methods advances in studying socially disadvantaged groups. Their chances to integrate into society through the educational channels are not likely to be fully achieved without significant change in the current social environment and re-organisation of education systems.

+{"text":"Study Design. A numerical study was conducted to identify the intervertebral stiffness of scoliotic spines from spinal flexibility tests. Objective. To study the intervertebral 3-dimensional (3D) stiffness distribution along scoliotic spine. Summary of Background Data. Few methods have been reported in literature to quantify the in vivo 3D intervertebral stiffness of the scoliotic spine. Based on the simulation of flexibility tests, these methods were operator-dependent and could yield to clinically irrelevant stiffnesses. Methods. This study included 30 patients surgically treated for severe idiopathic scoliosis. A previously validated trunk model, with patient-specific geometry, was used to simulate bending tests according to the in vivo displacements of T1 and L5 measured from bending test radiographs. Differences between in vivo and virtual spinal behaviors during bending tests (left and right) were computed in terms of vertebral rotations and translation. An automated method, driven by a priori knowledge, identified intervertebral stiffnesses in order to reproduce the in vivo spinal behavior. Results. Because of the identification of intervertebral stiffnesses, differences between in vivo and virtual spinal displacements were drastically reduced (95% of the differences less than \u00b13 mm for vertebral translation). Intervertebral stiffness distribution after identification was analyzed. On convex side test, the intervertebral stiffness of the compensatory curves increased in most cases, whereas the major curve became more flexible. Stiffness singularities were found in junctional zones: these specific levels were predominantly flexible, both in torsion and in lateral bending. Conclusion. The identification of in vivo intervertebral stiffness may improve our understanding of scoliotic spine and the relevance of patient-specific methods for surgical planning.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":31456663,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2067932421","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1097\/BRS.0b013e3181b664b1","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"While the purchase of cable represents an admittedly minor part of the cost of installing a photovoltaic system, it is a cost nonetheless, and one that should be examined with rigor by a maturing photovoltaic industry. Using larger cables between array and point of connection to the battery or gridtied inverter reduces array power losses, but increases the costs of the cables. In the past, little attention has been paid to the optimization of the sizing of the cables; the effort of doing a simulation study did not appear to justify the potential gains. This study shows that, in fact, a very simple relation can be used to determine the financially optimum cable size. This simple relation is derived from basic considerations of the costs associated with wiring losses and the wiring itself. The challenge is to determine average level of losses, since these will depend on the varying level of sunshine over the course of a year. This study uses a simple exponential expression for the frequency distribution of array power output; this distribution is characterized by three parameters: the number of daylight hours in the year, the annual output of the array, and the maximum power output of the array. This simple distribution has the advantage of giving rise to an integrable expression for the frequency distribution of power losses in the cables. The result can be incorporated into an expression for the total cost of the cables (costs associated with purchase and losses), which can then be minimized, yielding a simple expression for the optimum cable size. This closed form solution demonstrates that the length of the cable run is irrelevant to the optimal cable size. This somewhat counterintuitive result is explained in the development of the closed form solution itself. The predictions of this closed form solution are compared to simulations to establish its validity. The application of the close-form relation to the problem of cable selection is then illustrated with an example. The method is also used to comment on the Canadian Electrical Code stipulations for wiring.

Definitions of effective inseparability, creativity, and universality are given, and for disjoint recursively enumerable sequences these concepts are shown to be equivalent. Isomorphism of creative sequences follows immediately from universality as in previous literature. The second part of this paper is a development of analogous theories for double sequences.

By loading the parasitic branches an additional amount of phase matching with the radiated waves in the air can be provided. Compared with other microstrip antennas, the monolayer structure has the advantage of easily machining in the wireless communication system. In this paper a leaky-wave antenna with working band from 4\u20139GHz is designed. The antenna displays a good broadside radiation function which can be demonstrated by working at even mode and odd mode. The scanning angle comes to about 60 degree. The radiation efficiency can reach to above 88% in the band.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":59619562,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2912582680","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/ISAPE.2018.8634383","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Integration programs are important and at the same time controversial parts of an immigration policy. This paper contributes to this debate by evaluating the effectiveness of German language trainings for immigrants with respect to their labor market performance. To allow for possible sample selection bias, the propensity score matching method is applied. This method matches treated and control persons with similar characteristics such that the assignment to each group can be considered as random placement and treatment effects can be worked out by comparing the outcomes of the corresponding matching partners. The empirical analysis relies on a new administrative dataset containing extensive employment information. Contrary to expectations about the effectiveness of a policy program, the results show significantly negative effects of language trainings, both on the employment status and on earnings. There is some evidence that the effects are more pronounced in Eastern Germany and for female participants. In accordance to previous studies, the negative effects can partly be explained by locking-in effects, which indicate that the job search intensity is usually lower during and after the participation in a program. Data limitations and arising econometric problems in the matching procedure might also cause the effects to be negative.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":55838044,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1766218193","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Background Effective doctor-patient communication, more specific 'Shared Decision Making (SDM)', is essential in high-quality health care. Physicians value the principles of SDM, but the practice is disappointing. Difficult subjects are avoided, options are not equally explained or patients' values remain unclear. As a rheumatologist, communication is an essential and powerful competency. Guidelines endorse SDM for the management of various rhematic diseases. What we do not know is how we acquire the right communication skills for the task. As rheumatologists we learn a lot about pathophysiology, diagnostic approach and treatment options, but not how to explain these aspects in comprehensible language to our patients. Objectives Objective of this study is to investigate how rheumatologists in training acquire communication skills, more specific skills in SDM. How do they rate their communication competency and what can be done to improve. Methods An online survey was developed with questions dedicated to evaluate the posed questions. The survey was distributed amongst aspirant members of the Dutch Society for Rheumatology by email with a link to the survey. The survey consists of questions asking for self-reflection and rating on various communication skills regarding different aspects of communication. Results These are preliminary results based at the first 23 responses, which is 33% of the total number of rheumatologists in training. From the received responses eleven fellows were in their fourth year, four in their fifth year and seven were in their final year of education. Fellows believe communication is the most important CanMEDS competency after 'Medical Expert'. Self-assessment of communication competency shows an average score of 3.7 on a five-point scale (5=most\u2009experienced). When a new diagnosis is explained, fellows rate their skills at levels to be expected for their years of education, except for the diagnose SLE, Systemic Sclerosis and M. Sj\u00f6gren. Items that are always discussed are the diagnosis and the treatment, but other aspects such as implications for pregnancy, work, social life and sexual intercourse are only discussed on request. Regarding the explanation of treatment options the right words to explain different biological DMARDs seem to run short. When presenting details about treatment fellows always communicate possible treatment effect and side effects, but do not always mention frequency of side-effects. Furthermore, alternatives and preferences of the patient are not always discussed but only on request by 68% of the respondents. Fellows indicate that they think communication and SDM are very important and are interested to acquire further skills. They prefer videos with examples of how to explain certain diagnoses, treatment options and how to deal with various patient types. A specific request was made for a training in Somatic Unexplained Complaints.Abstract AB1389 \u2013 Figure 1 Conclusions Rheumatologists in training highly value good doctor-patient communication.

+{"text":"The discovery of unknown mutations and polymorphisms in genome sequences is a vital aspect of widespread research areas, including pharmacogenetics in humans [linking single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotype and haplotype information to disease drug treatment] and reverse genetics in model organisms (relating mutant phenotype to genomic DNA sequence information). The method of choice for precise mutation and polymorphism analysis has been DNA sequencing. However, this approach generates large quantities of unnecessary data. Another widely used method for screening DNA mismatches, PCR single-stranded conformational polymorphism (SSCP) analysis, has recently been made much more sensitive by using fluorescence detection and capillary electrophoresis for analyses (1). Denaturing highperformance liquid chromatography (DHPLC) is another sensitive mutation screening method that is used extensively (2). Unfortunately, both of these latter methods are generally limited to the analysis of DNA fragments less than 1000 bp in length, cannot be used to map multiple mutations in a single fragment, and do not easily yield the location of a mutation within a DNA sequence. Recently, a new family of neutral pH DNA endonucleases from plants has been described (3). The enzyme isolated from celery, CEL I nuclease, has been shown to cut DNA with high specificity in one of two strands at the 3\u2032 side of basesubstitution mismatches and DNA distortions (3\u20135). CEL I nuclease has been used to accurately detect a variety of mutations and polymorphisms in the human BRCA1 gene (3\u20135). It has also been used to perform high-throughput screening of induced point mutations in Arabidopsis (6,7) and Lotus (8). These applications rely on fluorophore end-labeled DNA substrates coupled with fractionation platforms that separate denatured DNA cleavage products. CEL I nuclease has also been used to scan large regions of bacterial genomic DNA for mutations and polymorphisms by cleaving DNA at the 3\u2032 side of a mismatch site in both DNA strands (9). The double-stranded cleavage products were fractionated by agarose gel electrophoresis and detected by Southern hybridization with labeled DNA (9). Using an enzyme from the CEL nuclease family, SurveyorTM nuclease (Transgenomic, Gaithersburg, MD, USA), we have extended the method of mutation discovery that exploits the enzyme's ability to cut both DNA strands at a mismatch site to the analysis of digestion products on several separation\/detection platforms. Surveyor nuclease mutation detection technology is a simple, sensitive, and reliable alternative to other screening methods. Here we show with substrates containing known mutations that Surveyor nuclease cleaves both DNA strands at sites of base substitution or insertion\/deletion, recognizes and cleaves at multiple mutations in large DNA fragments, and produces detectable cleavage products from mismatch DNA representing only a small proportion of the DNA in a","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":41409473,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Peter C.Y. Chow (ed.), National Identity and Economic Interest: Taiwan's competing op- tions and their implications for regional stability, New York, Pal- grave Macmillan, 2012, 318 pp.Once again, Peter C.Y. Chow has edited a timely volume on pressing issues concerning Taiwan. This one sets out to provide a compre- hensive understanding of the recent rapprochement between Tai- wan and the People's Republic of China. As the title suggests, most of the contributions from Asian, European, and American scholars aim to shed light on the relationship between the dynamism of economic relations across the Taiwan Strait and the consolidating national identity of Taiwan. By weav- ing together these two threads within the field of Taiwan Studies, the schol- ars provide a comprehensive picture of this crucial subject matter from political, geopolitical, economic, and social perspectives.One major puzzle provides the leitmotif for most of the chapters: against the often-voiced assumption that economic integration across the Taiwan Strait might lead to a common identity, the Taiwanese identity is actually growing stronger. Is it a matter of measuring identity (unlikely, given the different but complementary sets of data used), was the prediction wrong (as Muyard argues), has the \"identity battle\" finished and has the issue lost its socio-political importance (Dittmer), or is the scientific concept in need of revision in order to be of value under these new conditions (Chen)? Sit- uated in this broader perspective, the volume is not only about the empirical phenomenon of Taiwan's evolving identity under conditions of economic Cross-Strait integration. It is at the same time an assessment of whether the concept of \"identity\" has lost its centrality in the field of Taiwan Studies. Is the discipline at a crossroads? Does the empirical observation that pursuit of profit seemingly trumps identity as the driving force of social interactions entail a decline of identity-based explanations in favour of economic ex- planations at the level of scientific inquiry? In this sense, this book is a thor- ough examination of identity as the cornerstone of how the discipline approaches Taiwan.The volume's eleven substantial chapters are grouped in three parts, each of which examines issues of identity and the economy from different angles. The four chapters comprising the first part deal with the Economic Coop- eration Framework Agreement (ECFA) as the culmination of Cross-Strait rapprochement. Jau- Yuan Hwang traces how Taiwan's disputed status has manifested itself in the legal and democratic deficiencies of the ECFA, while Tsai-Long Honigman Hong assesses the agreement's economic impact on Taiwan. Peter C.Y. Chow adds in the social and political costs of economic integration, such as a broadening gap in income distribution. He draws at- tention to \"cultural flows,\" which already affect Taiwanese media and might facilitate sinicisation, but which, unlike economic interactions, escape cur- rent frameworks. Stephane Corcuff establishes an original historical perspec- tive with a longue duree comparison between the end of the Zheng regime in the late seventeenth century and the Kuomintang (KMT)'s U-turn that led to the Cross-Strait rapprochement. It not only brings striking similarities to the surface, but also facilitates understanding and assessing the differ- ences. Identity is here not only a discourse, but a process linked to material instances of what the author is hesitant to call re-sinicisation or de- tai- wanisation.The middle part addresses the question of Taiwan's identity more explicitly. Although all authors agree that Taiwan's identity as an independent political entity is growing and deepening, they accentuate different facets of it and grant it a different status in their respective explanations. Michael Danielsen contrasts the efforts by the Ma government to promote a Chinese identity with the actual phenomenon that the Taiwan identity is growing stronger. \u2026","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":152048302,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2563224114","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"From the Book: \nThis book has been under continuous development for over five years, since shortly after the JDK 1.0 release back in 1995. \nMarried to the Java Specifications \nThis book is based on the Java Language Specification (JLS). In fact, I started out to write what I regarded as The Java Language Specification for Application Programmers. Shortly thereafter, however, I realized that material from The Java Virtual Machine Specification (JVMS) would have to be included as well. The work has grown to include everything of interest to mainstream business application programmers in the latest and greatest copies of a host of Java specifications, including notably the Second Editions of both the JLS and the JVMS. \n \nThe main difference between the specifications and this book is the target audience. The JVMS is, of course, written for someone who wants to implement a JVM. What is not as generally understood is that the JLS is a grammar that is primarily intended for someone who wants to write a Java compiler, such as the jikes compiler team at IBM. Thus, it includes a lot of material that is only of interest to programmers who make a living in the arcane world of compilers. That is truly unfortunate, because the JLS contains a wealth of information of interest to application programmers that rarely makes it into mainstream Java books. The same can be said of the JVMS. This book extracts all of that information, elaborates upon it where necessary, and presents it in a technical writing style appropriate for mainstream business application programmers. \nThe Target Audience \nMainstream business application programmers are the target audience. By that I mean working programmers, most of whom will be found in corporations outside of Silicon Valley. These are experienced professionals that need to learn the language at a professional level in the first pass. That requires a serious and dedicated focus on the part of the reader. Mainstream business application programmers have that focus. They bring to the subject years of experience and a strong motivation to learn. \n \nMore generally, this book is for any programmer who wants to truly master the fundamentals of the Java programming language. While formalism and stylistic norms forbid me to include students in the target audience, I firmly believe that these books can be profitably used to teach the Java programming language (if not as the primary text, then as an auxiliary reference work).","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":196090572,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2610973345","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The interferon (IFN)-induced, double-stranded RNA-activated protein kinase (PKR) mediates the antiviral and antiproliferative actions of IFN, in part, via its translational inhibitory properties. Previous studies have demonstrated that PKR forms dimers and that dimerization is likely to be required for activation and\/or function. In the present study we used multiple approaches to examine the modulation of PKR dimerization. Deletion analysis with the l repressor fusion system identified a previously unrecognized site involved in PKR dimerization. This site comprised amino acids (aa) 244 to 296, which span part of the third basic region of PKR and the catalytic subdomains I and II. Using the yeast two-hybrid system and far-Western analysis, we verified the importance of this region for dimerization. Furthermore, coexpression of the 52-aa region alone inhibited the formation of full-length PKR dimers in the l repressor fusion and two-hybrid systems. Importantly, coexpression of aa 244 to 296 exerted a dominant-negative effect on wild-type kinase activity in a functional assay. Due to its role as a mediator of IFN-induced antiviral resistance, PKR is a target of viral and cellular inhibitors. Curiously, PKR aa 244 to 296 contain the binding site for a select group of specific inhibitors, including the cellular protein P58 IPK . We demonstrated, utilizing both the yeast and l systems, that P58 IPK , a member of the tetratricopeptide repeat protein family, can block kinase activity by preventing PKR dimer- ization. In contrast, a nonfunctional form of P58 IPK lacking a TPR motif did not inhibit kinase activity or perturb PKR dimers. These results highlight a potential mechanism of PKR inhibition and define a novel class of PKR inhibitors. Finally, the data document the first known example of inhibition of protein kinase dimerization by a cellular protein inhibitor. On the basis of these results we propose a model for the regulation of PKR dimerization.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":19024942,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The problem is featured by a very small Reynolds number and Strouhal number, making the fluid convective acceleration is negligible, while its local acceleration is not. We have developed an exact solution for this problem which shows that the flow starts with an inviscid limit when the viscous effect has no time to appear, and is followed by a subsequent developing flow, in which the viscous effect continues to penetrate into the entire fluid gap. An approximate solution is also developed using a boundary layer integral method. This solution precisely captures the general behavior of the transient fluid flow process, and agrees very well with the exact solution. We also performed numerical simulation using Ansys-CFX. Excellent agreement between the analytical and the numerical solutions is obtained, indicating the validity of the analytical approaches.

+{"text":"Ferrite materials play an important role in promoting the development of modern electrical and electronic devices. In the oxide form, two ferrite systems are usually interested to be cubic spinel ferrites (MeFe 2 O 4 , where Me is a divalent cation) and hexagonal ferrites (hexaferrites). Though the hexaferrites were discovered since 1950s, there has been an exponentially increasing interest until now [1]. Among the hexaferrites, M-type barium hexaferrite (BaFe 12 O 19 ) has attracted a special interest because this material can be fabricated by simple techniques and has many intriguing properties. For example, with the large coercive force $( H_{c})$, high Curie temperature ($T_{C}$, above 700 K [2]), corrosion resistance, and high chemical stability, BaFe 12 O 19 is usually used to fabricate permanent magnets. One has also found its promising applications in high-density recording media, microwave-related devices, and energy conversion and storage devices [1, 3]. Because the magnetic property of BaFe 12 O 19 can easily tuned as expected upon changing fabrication conditions, crystal sizes, and dopants, its application range is remarkably widened. It has been found that the changes in fabrication conditions and dopants would create different intrinsic defects (such as crystal defects, impurities, and grain morphology), which influences the magnitude of $H_{c}$ and the saturation magnetization $(M_{s})$. For the doping case, Ba and Fe in BaFe 12 O 19 can be substituted with alkaline-earth (or rare-earth) and 3d transition metals, respectively [2\u20135]. To explain the magnetic property of these compounds, it is necessary to know the crystal and electronic structures. Such works are usually based on X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Mossbauer technique [2, 4]. To the best of our knowledge, there is no work on X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) to find out the relation between the electronic structure and magnetic property of doped BaFe 12 O 19 . Taking into this problem, we have prepared Ba 1-x S-r x CoFe 11 O 19 samples. Their crystalline\/electronic structures and magnetic property were then studied. Ba 1-x Sr x CoFe 11 O 19 $(x = 0-1)$ nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared by co-precipitation method, using Ba(NO 3 ) 2 , Sr(NO 3 ) 2 , Co(NO 3 ) 2 .6H 2 O, and Fe(NO 3 ) 3 .9H 2 O as precursors. These chemicals with stoichiometric ratios were dissolved in 100 mL DI water at 90 \u00b0C. After that, 50 mL NaOH solution (1 M) was added to the mixtures and continuously stirred for 2 h. The products after chemical reactions were filtered, washed by ethanol and DI water, and annealed at 900 \u00b0C for 3 h in air. Finally, the products were checked the grain morphology by a scanning electron microscope (SEM, JSM-5410LV). Their crystal and electronic structures were studied by an X-ray diffractometer (Rigaku, MiniFlex) and XAS (the 8C nano-XAFS beamline, Pohang Light Source). The magnetic property was studied by a vibrating sample magnetometer. All investigations were carried out at room temperature. Results revealed that fabricated Ba 1-x Sr x CoFe 11 O 19 NPs with average particle sizes of 100~300 nm crystallized in a hexagonal structure (P6 3 \/mmc space group). When Sr content (x) increases, the shape of crystals modifies very much while the unit-cell parameters decrease due to the replacement of Sr2+ (1.18 A) for Ba2+ (1.35 A). Detailed analyses for the Fe and Co K-edge XAS spectra prove oxidation numbers of Fe and Co to be 3+ and 2+, respectively, which are stable versus an x change in Ba 1-x Sr x CoFe 11 O 19 , Fig. 1. Our study has also found a small change of the Fe-O bond length in between 1.89 and 1.91 A. Though both the hexagonal and electronic structures are almost unchanged by Sr doping (excepting for the lattice parameters), our study on the magnetic property has indicated the x dependence of magnetic parameters, as seen in Fig. 2. While $M_{s}$ decreases from 46.1 emu\/g for $x=0$ to 34.2 emu\/g for $x=1$, $H_{c}$ tends to increase from 1630 Oe for $x=0$ to $\\sim 2200$ Oe for $x=0.5$, but slightly decreases to 2040 Oe as $x=1$. We think that such $M_{s}$ changes are related to in the exchange interactions between Fe3+ and\/or Co2+ ions located at the octahedral, tetrahedral, and bipyramid sites, which are sensitive to the changes related to local structures, such as Fe\/Co-O bond lengths and Fe\/Co-O-Fe\/Co bond angles. Meanwhile, the $H_{c}$ change is mainly due to different grain sizes, morphology, and shapes. Our work also reviews recent reports on M-hexaferrites, and discuss in detail their magnetic property, particularly BaFe 12 O 19 related compounds.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":139679077,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2899140073","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/INTMAG.2018.8508079","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

To improve control performance, an adaptive neural learning prescribed-time controller was developed, which ensures that the system's output tracks the desired trajectory with a predetermined accuracy within a user-defined time.

Moreover, the proposed control scheme can solve the issue with and without constraints uniformly. With the aid of the Lyapunov method, the stability of the system is analyzed.

+{"text":"Introduction: Genomic aberrations represent important prognostic markers in many hematological cancers. In multiple myeloma (MM), chromosome 13q and 17p deletions (13q\u2212, 17p\u2212) have emerged as important outcome predictors that indicate a dismal prognosis. Other chromosomal abnormalities have been discussed as prognostic markers in this disease but came not out as independent variables when they were tested in a multivariable fashion. However, the complexity of genomic rearrangements and the clinical heterogeneity seen in malignant plasma cell disorders argue against 13q\u2212 and 17p\u2212 as the sole genomic change of prognostic relevance. The significance of chromosome arm 1q, 9q, and 11q extra copies - three frequent genomic imbalances in MM - is undetermined. Material and Methods: 90 patients (pts.) treated with one or two cycles of high-dose chemotherapy (HD-CTX) followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) at a single center were analyzed by tri-color FISH and five DNA probes mapping to chromosome bands 1q21, 9q34, 11q25, 13q14, and 17p13. A multivariable analysis (Cox proportional hazards regression model) including genetic and clinical variables was performed. Results: The most frequent aberrations in the present series were (in order of decreasing prevalence): +1q (n=39\/78, 50.0%), +9q (n=38\/78, 48.7%), 13q\u2212 (n=42\/90, 46.6%), and +11q (n=39\/85, 45.9%). 17p\u2212 was identified in only 3 out of 88 patients (3.4%), while +17p were present in 13 out of 88 patients (14.8%). The median follow-up time was 37 months (m) and the median event free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) time from first ASCT of the entire cohort was 26 m and 71 m, respectively. Multivariable analysis including genetic aberrations, s2-microblobulin, albumin, LDH, Salmon\/Durie stage, and age at time of diagnosis revealed +9q and 13q\u2212 as the only independent predictors of EFS (p=0.003 and p=0.01, respectively). The mEFS in patients with 13q\u2212 was 19.0 m and 20.7 m in patients with +9q. In patients with concurrent +9q and 13q\u2212, mEFS was only 12.2 m. In patients lacking these two abnormalities, mEFS was not reached. OS was not significantly influenced by any genetic or clinical variable in our series, most likely due to effective salvage treatment after relapse. Conclusions: +9q represents a novel and independent marker of adverse prognosis in MM. A single FISH experiment applying two DNA probes allows easy and rapid assessment of outcome in patients with malignant plasma cell disorders.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":79364377,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2557435029","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1182\/BLOOD.V106.11.1559.1559","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Over 60 contributors from all over the world participated in this conference, and their individual papers comprise the volume. Six sections include the following topics: muscular dystrophies, spinal muscular atrophies, myotonic dystrophy, mitochondrial myopathies, glycogenoses, and a section which has a potpourri of unclassified neuromuscular disorders. The Aristoteles Commemorative Lecture discusses ethical issues in clinical genetics. Some of the papers constitute reviews of the state of the art in 1988; although the primary information is published elsewhere, these reviews have been written by prominent experts in those areas and are thus authoritative. Topics reviewed include \"Gene Mapping and the Muscular Dystrophies\" by Peter Harper and \"Mitochondrial Encephalomyopathies\" by Salvatore DiMauro. Baraitser presents a short summary of a classification of the inherited spinal muscular atrophies, which is a useful review. Other papers are reports of original work and include a report of apparent autosomal dominant inheritance of adult onset limb-girdle muscular dystrophy in two generations of a single family. The case report of mitochondrial disease presenting with glycogen storage is enzymatically undefined and not too convincing. Such a symposium must, by its nature, be limited in scope and cannot represent a complete review of even such a narrow field. Neverthelesss, there are some peculiar omissions. For example, Harper's review of the mapping of the muscular dystrophy genes discusses the use of X-autosomal translocations to identify the location of the DMD gene but fails to mention the importance of the X chromosomal deletions in that mapping story. The review by DiMauro on mitochondrial myopathies fails to cite some of Wallace's important work in identifying and elucidating several of the mitochon-drial gene disorders. Nevertheless, this book provides a compilation of genetic information on a selection of inherited neuromuscular disorders of clinical importance. While this symposium will be a useful reference for the neurologist and the clinical geneticist, further reading will be necessary to acquire comprehensive details.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has accumulated significant attention in regenerative medicine. Pentoxifylline (PTX) as a methylxanthine derivative has been shown to have antioxidant and antiapoptotic properties. The aim of this study was to evaluate the protective effect of PRP and PTX on CP-induced POF. Fifty mature and immature female rats were assigned into five groups: control, CP (75\u2009mg\/kg, intraperitoneal [ip] on days 1 and 10 to induce POF), CP\u2009+\u2009PRP (200\u2009\u03bcl, ip, half an hour after CP injection on day 1 and 10), CP\u2009+\u2009PTX (50\u2009mg\/kg, orally, half an hour after CP injection daily for 21\u2009day), and CP\u2009+\u2009PRP\u2009+\u2009PTX. At the end of experiments on day 21, measurement of body weight, ovarian parameters (ovarian volume, follicular granulosa cell layers diameter, oocyte diameter, and the number of granulosa cells), measurement of ovarian hormone in sera for estradiol (E2), and anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH), as well as biochemical assessment were performed.

Implementers usually compensate for these issues through rating normalization or the inclusion of a user bias term in factorization models. However, these methods adjust only for the central tendency of users' distributions. In this work, we demonstrate that a lack of flatness in rating distributions is negatively correlated with recommendation performance. We propose a rating transformation model that compensates for skew in the rating distribution as well as its central tendency by converting ratings into percentile values as a pre-processing step before recommendation generation. This transformation flattens the rating distribution, better compensates for differences in rating distributions, and improves recommendation performance. We also show that a smoothed version of this transformation can yield more intuitive results for users with very narrow rating distributions.

I studies of nutrient cycling it is often desirable to sample soil water at several depths to determine nutrient concentrations. Among sampling devices there are several types of tension or suction lysimeters constructed with porous ceramic discs or plates (Tanner et al., 1954; Cole et al., 1961), with porous ceramic cups of several sizes (Hansen and Harris, 1975), or with porous Teflon cylinders (Zimmermann et al., 1978). Tension may be applied by means of a hanging water column or by hand-powered or automatic vacuum pumping systems.

Further, they recommended the use of suction plates of a large cross-sectional area in preference to ceramic cups in order to obtain the most representative soil solution samples. Validity of water collections from two sizes of porous cup lysimeters were investigated by Hansen and Harris (1975) who reported problems including variability in intake rates, in total volume collected, and adsorption of P to the ceramic. Porous ceramic cup lysimeters were compared to porous Teflon by Zimmermann et al. (1978). They found that porous ceramic lysimeters collected 11% of the NH4 + and 43% of the PO^~ from test solutions, while Teflon lysimeters recovered between 102 and 106% of these ions in initial solutions. We are not aware of studies comparing tension lysimeters and zero-tension lysimeters. In the planning of a study of nutrient cycling it was not clear which type of lysimeter would be most suitable for monitoring changes in the quantity and quality of soil solution that might result from a clear-cut logging operation. Thus we installed both tension lysimeter and zero-tension lysimeters side by side at 16 locations and at two depths on an experimental watershed.

Empirical measurements of previously fabricated neural circuit elements are used to produce suitable hardware models which accurately characterize the fabrication process and a typical operating environment. These models are used to evaluate the tolerance of the soft competitive learning algorithm to expected system variations including various noise and device effects. The analog neural circuits make extensive use of a CMOS implementation of the Gilbert multiplier which is the primary computational element for our learning computations. We have found, through the aid of simulations based on these hardware models, that the circuit effects are not significant if zero-thresholding is used to compensate for multiplier zero-crossing offsets.

This study aims to explore the comparative figure of vitamin A knowledge, household consumption frequency of vitamin A-rich foods, and association of socio-demographic factors with knowledge and consumption in four residential areas in Tangail district, Bangladesh. Methods: This study used a population-based cross-sectional design with 400 study participants selected using purposive sampling technique. Knowledge and consumption frequency were assessed by a structured questionnaire along with food frequency table. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics. Results: Only 33.5% participants had primary vitamin A knowledge, where most from urban (48.5%) and semi-urban (30.6%) areas had comparatively higher knowledge than those from rural (11.2%) and slum (9.7%) areas. Specific knowledge level was also poorer in rural and slum areas than urban and semi-urban areas. Most of the participants received knowledge through commercial advertisements (65.7%). Household consumption frequency of vitamin A-rich foods (plant and animal) was comparatively lower in rural and slum areas than in urban and semi-urban areas. Different socio-demographic factors (place of residence, education and household income) significantly influenced participant's vitamin A knowledge and household consumption of vitamin A-rich foods (p<0.05).

There are two main problems: the implicit dependency on temperature of the bulk and near wall fluid and the impossibility of separating the cold and hot fluid partial heat transfer coefficients due to heat flow conservation. The classical way of zeroing the derivatives of a suitable objective function with respect to the parameters implies a multi-modal non-linear equation system, sensitive to the starting parameter vector. The new method starts with a given parameter vector and takes the ratio of hot over cold fluid partial heat transfer coefficient, separating them in this way. It then uses the total heat transfer equation to solve for each of them and the heat flow conservation equation to calculate the cold and hot side wall temperatures, returning thus to the initial equation. This one is used to recompute the parameter vector. The whole process is iterated until satisfactory convergence occurs.

+{"text":"Semantic segmentation of remote sensing imagery (RSI) has obtained great success with the development of deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs). However, most of the existing algorithms focus on designing end-to-end DCNNs, but neglecting to consider the difficulty of segmentation in imbalance categories, especially for minority categories in RSI, which limits the performance of RSI semantic segmentation. In this paper, a novel edge guided context aggregation network (EGCAN) is proposed for the semantic segmentation of RSI. The Unet is employed as backbone. Meanwhile, an edge guided context aggregation branch and minority categories extraction branch are designed for a comprehensive enhancement of semantic modeling. Specifically, the edge guided context aggregation branch is proposed to promote entire semantic comprehension of RSI and further emphasize the representation of edge information, which consists of three modules: edge extraction module (EEM), dual expectation maximization attention module (DEMA), and edge guided module (EGM). EEM is created primarily for accurate edge tracking. According to that, DEMA aggregates global contextual features with different scales and the edge features along spatial and channel dimensions. Subsequently, EGM cascades the aggregated features into the decoder process to capture long-range dependencies and further emphasize the error-prone pixels in the edge region to acquire better semantic labels. Besides this, the exploited minority categories extraction branch is presented to acquire rich multi-scale contextual information through an elaborate hybrid spatial pyramid pooling module (HSPP) to distinguish categories taking a small percentage and background. On the Tianzhi Cup dataset, the proposed algorithm EGCAN achieved an overall accuracy of 84.1% and an average cross-merge ratio of 68.1%, with an accuracy improvement of 0.4% and 1.3% respectively compared to the classical Deeplabv3+ model.

We present a comprehensive solution to compute the values of a parameterized ranking function (PRF) [18] for arbitrary continuous probability distributions (and thus rank the uncertain dataset); PRF can be used to simulate or approximate many other ranking functions proposed in prior work. We develop exact polynomial time algorithms for some continuous probability distribution classes, and efficient approximation schemes with provable guarantees for arbitrary probability distributions. Our algorithms can also be used for exact or approximate evaluation of k-nearest neighbor queries over uncertain objects, whose positions are modeled using continuous probability distributions.

+{"text":"JPL is developing deployable radio frequency (RF) reflector booms for spaceflight usage on two different Earth orbiter projects scheduled to launch in the early 2020's. The static alignment and thermal stability requirements for these RF reflector booms are challenging. A common mechanism design has been developed for the deployment and latching of boom hinges that avoids significant parasitic loads on the alignment critical structures after completion of mechanism function. The mechanism design includes a high-aspect-ratio torsion spring with viscous damper for hinge closure as well as an actuator-driven flexured hook and roller latch for joint preloading. This paper describes noteworthy mechanism design details, test results, challenges, and lessons learned during the development effort. Introduction The RF reflector boom deployment sequence is shown in Figure 1 for each project. On a given boom, only one hinge is deployed and then latched at a time. After completion of hinge closure and latching for all boom hinges, the passive RF reflector deploys. Figure 1. RF Reflector Boom Deployment Sequences The boom hinge deploy and latching mechanism design includes a spring\/damper mechanism for hinge closure and an actuator-driven latching mechanism for hinge joint preloading (Figure 2). The spring\/damper mechanism automatically proceeds with hinge closure immediately following mast launch restraint separation. Hinge latching does not commence until successful confirmation of hinge closure to within the latching capture range from redundant hinge closure sensors. * Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA ** D.E.B.

Hinge Deploy & Latching Mechanisms (NISAR Hinge Shown) Project Background This common boom hinge deploy and latching mechanism design is being developed for two different Earthorbiter projects: the Surface Water Ocean Topography (SWOT) Project and the NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) Project. The SWOT Project is an international collaborative effort between NASA and the French Government Space Agency. The earth science objectives of the SWOT Project include high-definition temporal and spatial mapping of all fresh and salt water bodies around the globe for a minimum 42-month time period. NISAR is an international collaborative effort between NASA and the India Space Research Organization (ISRO). The earth science objectives of the NISAR Project include land and ice mass observation to improve natural disaster prediction, deforestation modeling, and polar ice cap reduction modeling, amongst other objectives. Precision alignment and stability of the RF reflectors to the RF feeds is crucial to mission success of each project. Figure 3. NISAR (Left) and SWOT (Right) Earth Observation Spacecraft Common Boom Deploy & Latching Mechanism Development The SWOT and NISAR Projects elected to pursue a common deployable boom design to the maximum extent practical to reduce overall development cost and schedule. While detailed mast geometry necessarily differs due to mission architecture and configuration differences, the basic design and construction of the booms is common between the two projects. NASA\/CP\u20142018-219887 404 The deploy and latching mechanisms are highly similar between the two projects, only differing as required by the structure that the mechanisms mount to and differences in flight environments. Noteworthy differences between the two projects are highlighted in the sections that follow as relevant to the mechanisms described in this document. Driving Design Considerations In addition to typical spaceflight mechanism design constraints (limited mass and volume, launch environments, on-orbit environments, ground testing considerations), the avoidance of significant and variable loading from mechanisms hardware onto the alignment critical structure was a primary design driver. The approach taken was to mechanically disconnect all possible mechanisms hardware from the mast after completion of mechanism function as show in Figure 4. In addition, the mechanical attachment of all mechanisms hardware to the mast uses flexures or non-preloaded pin\/slot interfaces. Specific implementation of the mechanism mechanical decoupling is shown in Figure 4. Figure 4. Mechanism Mechanical Disconnection from Alignment Critical Mast Structure Another critical design driver for deploy and latching mechanisms hardware was conductive thermal isolation of mechanisms hardware from the mast structure. This enables the control of mechanism hardware to tighter temperature ranges than the parent structure as necessary. Isolation was accomplished using small contact areas and low thermal conductivity Ultem 2300 isolators. An example of this methodology is shown in Figure 5. NASA\/CP\u20142018-219887 405 Figure 5. Example of SWOT and NISAR Mechanism Thermal Isolation Design Hinge Deployment Mechanism The hinge deployment mechanism is designed to close boom hinges from the launch position through the deployed\/closed hinge configuration. A separate analogous hinge deployment mechanism is used at each hinge. The hinge deployment mechanism was designed to overcome worst-case torque opposing deployment associated with hinge-crossing wire harness, coulomb friction sources, and ball bearing rolling friction losses over the full range of thermal environments that could take place in flight. Challenges encountered during prototype hinge testing (Figure 6) in worst case thermal environments are described in the sections that follow. Figure 6. NISAR Prototype Thermal Test Hinge A spring\/damper mechanism was developed to perform hinge closure. Several different options were considered for the boom hinge closure mechanism. A serpentine wire rope spooler mechanism (as used on the SMAP Project RF boom) was considered but rejected primarily due to the inability to test mechanisms in a flight-like manner prior to full mast assembly. Various actuator-driven linkages were considered and discarded due to higher estimated mass than the spring\/damper mechanism option. Direct actuator driven hinge closure was considered as well, but was also deemed more massive and a higher risk development than the spring\/damper option. The following sections provide information regarding unique design and testing challenges with the spring\/damper mechanism as well as the deployable hinge crossing harness. NASA\/CP\u20142018-219887 406 Spring Design Overview A pair of torsion springs is used at each hinge, each capable of independently transmitting torque to deploy the hinge for robustness. Each spring is supported by an aluminum outer mandrel which in turn rotates on glass-filled Teflon bushings on an inner mandrel (Figure 7). Figure 7. Spring Location in Hinge (Left) and Independent Spring Mandrels (Right) A custom 17-7 CH900 torsion spring solution was deemed necessary given the limited volume and high output torque needed for the Hinge Deployment mechanism, particularly for the smaller volume available in the NISAR hinge configuration (116-mm [4.567-in] length and 43-mm [1.693-in] diameter for spring assembly). Elgiloy was briefly considered and dismissed due to long lead time as well as spring vendor cautionary guidance that Elgiloy spring development programs frequently encounter challenges, often with little to no improvement in measured strength performance over 17-7 CH900. The projects elected to stick with the 17-7 CH900 material which the spring vendor had the most experience working with. A high-aspect-ratio rectangular cross section (3.8 to 1) is being used for the spring to increase the spring wire moment of inertia per unit spring body length. This resulted in lower bending stress and higher spring constant than a round wire spring with the same wire width and number of spring turns. There are six types of hinges for the SWOT and NISAR booms with different stow angles. It is worth noting that the relaxed spring arm angle of the springs for each hinge were selected to ensure maximum torque across the range of motion of the hinge without violating NASA-STD-5017A advisory that Mission Critical Springs maintain positive margins above a 1.5 factor of safety to yield at the maximum deflection (fully stowed) configuration [1]. Spring Arm Twist In early testing with spring arms contacting round pins with no other support, undesirable arm longitudinal twisting was observed at spring windup angles greater than 180 degrees, resulting in significant reduction in spring stiffness and higher-than-intended stress in the spring arms. Destructive characterization testing at room temperature demonstrated the onset of yielding at approximately 445 degrees as opposed to approximately 730 degrees predicted by analysis with no spring arm twist. Guide vanes were added to the spring mandrel design to minimize this arm twist phenomenon. Follow-on destructive spring testing with the guide vanes demonstrated onset of yielding at approximately 740 degrees, which more closely matches analytical predictions (Figure 8). NASA\/CP\u20142018-219887 407 Figure 8. Destructive Spring Characterization Test Results, Spring Arms Supported Spring Assembly Thermal Testing Developmental testing was conducted to evaluate the impact of spring wet lubrication on spring performance across temperature. Torsion springs were grease plated with a thin film of Braycote 601EF and tested in the same configuration as identical clean, unlubricated springs. Test results indicated that lubricated spring performance was nearly identical to unlubricated spring performance at and above room temperature. Unlubricated spring torque performance was significantly better than lubricated spring performance in the worst case cold environment (-100\u00b0C) as shown in Figure 9. The average improvement in spring output torque was up to 1.7 N\u2022","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":224801587,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3020000441","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

'Democratic peace' is an idea, which is closely related to political globalization. It is an instrument ostensibly to create a politically homogenous world. 'Democratic peace' is merely an adjunct of the American foreign policy based on the vision of the 'two worlds', and is just another tool in the hands of western powers to challenge the sovereignty of the states in the era of globalisation. The paper also attempts to understand the growing tendency among the West to target individual leaders in various countries for human rights violations. A closer scrutiny of the American policy suggests that its main function is to reform the rogue states by targeting first the territory of that state through an armed attack and then blaming the leader of that distraught nation for all the destruction and war. Therefore, it is apparent that what seems to touch the heart, soul and the basic interest of the American foreign policy is Man, State and Democratic Wars.

+{"text":"A key challenge in using woody biomass for energy production is getting the feedstock harvested, processed, and transported at reasonable costs. Efficient feedstock harvesting methods must match the unique requirements of each source. Logging residue collection, for example, can be accomplished by integrating biomass processing into a conventional logging operation. Understory biomass and small woody species present special problems that are not readily overcome with existing harvesting methods. A wide range of new technology is being developed. Harvesting technology can be described and evaluated by looking at the performance of basic functions: felling, primary transport, processing, and highway transport. Three basic felling methods are described here including manual (chainsaw), feller-buncher, and swath cutting. Primary transport of small woody biomass can be achieved by manual skidding or forwarding. An intermediate processing step to convert the biomass into chips or bundles can significantly reduce biomass extraction costs. Several new technology developments to improve small woody biomass harvesting include variations of swath cutters and chip forwarders. In addition, a portable conveyor system has been tested to improve manual biomass cutting and removal. With the wide range of possible equipment configurations and interactions among site conditions and biomass characteristics, it is difficult to compare alternative harvesting approaches. A generic biomass removal model, based on defining common parameters for the basic functions, allows any combination of equipment to be evaluated and compared.

The road safety profession will benefit greatly from informative research on the impact of vehicle operating speed, roadway design elements, and traffic volume on crash outcomes. This study investigated the speed-crash association in both annual and daily level datasets to determine how roadway characteristics interact with various speed measures to impact the likelihood of crash occurrences on both annual and daily levels. For annual models, the average operating speed is positively associated with both fatal and injury and property damage only (PDO) crashes. However, for daily models, this association is mostly negative and insignificant. The standard deviation of operating speed is positively associated with crash occurrences for both daily and annual models.

Abstract: Objective: To analyze plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cytokine levels and cell-mediated immunity (T, B and NK cells) of chronic neuropathic pain patients under long-term morphine treatment administered through the oral or spinal routes. Design: Crosssectional clinical and laboratory analysis. Subjects:Fifty ambulatory patients with diagnosis of chronic low back pain and presence of radiculopathy (neuropathic pain) previously operated to treat lumbar disc hernia (failed back surgery syndrome) receiving long term morphine treatment (minimum 180 days); 18 patients receiving long term morphine into the intrathecal space through a implanted pump (\"spinal group\"); 17 patients treated with long-term oral morphine (\"oral group\") and 15 patients treated with non-opioid analgesics (\"without opioid group\"). Methods: Were analyzed plasma and cerebrospinal fluid concentrations of 10 cytokines using a multiplex system (Luminex\u00ae) for the following cytokines: IL2, IL-4, IL-8, TNF\u03b1, IFN\u03b3, IL-5, GM-CSF, IL-6, IL-10 and IL-1\u03b2; immunophenotyping of lymphocytes T, B and NK cells. Results: There were no significant group demographic differences. No significant T, B and NK cells differences were observed between the 3 groups. CD4 levels and Opioid Escalation Index (OEI) were positively correlated in spninal group. NK cells levels and OEI were negatively correlated in spinal group. NK cells levels and cumulative morphine dose were positively correlated in spninal and oral groups. CSF concentrations of IL-8 and IL-1\u03b2 were higher than plasma concentrations in all groups. CSF concentration of FNg were higher in oral and without opioid group. Plasma IL-5 concentrations were higher in the oral and spinal groups compared to without opioid group. CSF concentration of IL-5 was negatively correlated with pain intensity in the oral and spinal groups. CSF concentrations of IL-2 was positively correlated with pain intensity and negatively correlated with OEI and cumulative morphine dose in the oral and spinal groups. GM-CSF plasma concentrations were higher in oral and spinal group compared to without opioid group. TNFa CSF concentrations was negatively correlated with OEI, cumulative morphine dose and equivalent oral morphine dose in the spinal group. IL-6 and IL-10 plasma concentrations were negatively correlated with treatment duration in the oral group. OEI The significant inverse correlations observed between pain intensity and the plasma IL-6 and IL-10 concentrations in patients receiving longterm i.t. opioids for chronic pain management, suggests that these cytokines are worthy of further investigation as possible biomarkers of persistent pain. CSF concentrations of IL-2 and TNFa were negatively correlated with OEI in spinal group. CSF concentrations of IL-2 and IL-5 were negatively correlated with OEI in oral group and with pain intensity in the oral and spinal group. Plasma concentrations of IL-4 was negatively correlated with pain intensity in spinal group. Plasma concentrations of IL-1\u03b2 were negatively correlated with pain intensity in spinal group. Conclusions: The results suggest associations between long term morphine treatment administered by oral or spinal routes and cytokines concentrations and cellmediated immunity (T, B and NK cells). These results can contribute to the understanding of immunomodulation by morphine administered through diferent routes in patients with chronic neuropathic non-cancer pain. Further studies on the effects of morphine on the immune system are needed.

+{"text":"The changes in the socio-economic environment combined with the shift in the paradigm that explains the role of universities in society resulted in the revision of systems of higher education (HE) in many countries, including Hungary. Moreover, not only universities, but their relationship with other spheres of the knowledge economy, i.e. the whole system of innovation, has been reformed in order to best contribute to the mission of the EU: to become the most competitive and dynamic knowledge-based economy in the world. After discussing the recent reforms of the National Innovation System (NIS) and higher education in Hungary, this paper goes on to present the results of an interview survey conducted at Technology Transfer Offices (TTO) of Hungarian research universities. The aim of the survey was to reveal universities' attitudes towards innovation, the driving force of knowledge economy, and their practices of transferring technology to the business sector following the reforms. University departments in charge of technology transfer were asked about their establishment, organization structure, staff and tasks, the support they receive from the government and the university management, as well as their internal and external communication practices. Since the change of the political system in 1989, research cooperation between academics and the industry have been scattered and individualized. With the recent Innovation Act (2005), however, and the resulting establishment of university Intellectual Property (IP) policies and TTOs, university technology transfer has become more organized, directed towards industry needs, and raised to the strategic level of university decision making. The present situation is still far from ideal, as both universities and the government would have to acquire a more market-oriented attitude.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":154339946,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2186115561","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"W hether the reduction in arterial stiffness after anti-hypertensive treatment is only because of the blood pressure (BP) lowering, which unloads the stiff components of the arterial wall such as collagen, or whether additional BP-independent effects are involved, has been largely debated. An increasing body of evidence, including theoretical aspects of arterial mechanics, 4 long-term observational studies in humans, 5 and a recent meta-analysis of double-blind, randomized, controlled trials, 6 suggests that only part of aor-tic stiffness could be reduced through the normalization of BP by pharmacological treatment, and further reduction of aortic stiffness would require long-term arterial remodeling, including reduction in collagen density and rearrangement of the wall materials. Blockers of the renin\u2013angiotensin\u2013aldosterone system (RAAS) are privileged antihypertensive drugs for such a BP-independent effect on arterial stiffness, mainly through the reduction of arterial wall fibrosis and remodeling. In long-term controlled studies, the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) perindopril 7 and trandolapril, 8 the combined neutral endopeptidase\/ACEI omapatrilat, 9 the angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) valsartan, 10 and the aldo-sterone antagonist spironolactone 11 had the capacity to reverse aortic stiffening independently of changes in BP. However, only 1 dose was tested in these studies. A major argument in favor of a BP-independent reduction in aortic stiffness by a RAAS blocker would come from the demonstration of a dose-dependent reduction in aortic stiffness for a given mean BP (MBP) reduction. To our knowledge, no such pharmacodynamic data are yet available. We hypothesized that high doses of olmesartan medoxomil (OM), through various mechanisms common to RAAS blockers in general and ARBs in particular, and possible additional anti-inflammatory effects reported in subjects with hypertension and microin-flammation 12 would gradually lower aortic stiffness for a given MBP reduction. This is of particular interest in patients with metabolic syndrome. Impaired glucose metabolism 13 and the clustering of risk factors known as the metabolic syndrome are associated with stiffening of the larger arteries. Metabolic syndrome is also associated with vascular inflammation, 17 and Abstact\u2014Whether angiotensin receptor blockers can dose-dependently remodel the arterial wall during long-term treatment has been largely debated.

For instance, we know that necessarily everything that is coloured is spatially extended, and we know that there might have been flying pigs. Modal knowledge has been particularly attractive to philosophers. For they generally do not confine themselves to claiming that such-and-such happens to be the case but might have been otherwise; rather, they tend to make the stronger claim that such-and-such has to be the case. As Nozick once put it: \"necessity lures philosophers. It is the flame, the philosopher the moth\" (2001: 120). To the extent that philosophers disagree with one another, they also tend to make claims about possibility, since in order to refute that such-and-such is necessary, one has to show that the negation of such-and-such is possible after all.

+{"text":"Most riverflow records in the United Kingdom are relatively short, with some of the longest continuous series beginning in the late 1950s. In contrast, rainfall records are plentiful with many extending back into the early decades of the nineteenth century. Earlier works have developed a method for reconstructing riverflow data from the longer rainfall series. The work reported here extends previous reconstructions from the middle of the 1990s to 2002. The inclusion of recent very wet periods has allowed a more comprehensive validation of the reconstruction model. Comparisons of reconstructed and observed flows for 1980\u20132002 imply that land\u2010use changes have had little effect on flows, at least at the monthly time step. In addition, for some catchments, the inadequacy of flow\u2010gauging installations under such extreme flow conditions is discussed. The reconstructions could prove useful for flow naturalisation for some catchments.

+{"text":"Previous research has shown that Puerto Ricans are highly segregated from nonHispanic whites and moderately segregated from blacks, with socioeconomic factors having no effect on these patterns. These findings are opposite those observed for other Hispanic groups and contradict the fundamental tenets of ecological theory. This paper explains these anomalous patterns and brings results for Puerto Ricans into conformity with prior theory and research on residential segregation. The Puerto Rican anomaly stems from their very low SES and their black ancestry. Low social status leads directly to high segregation, while a high percent of blacks among Puerto Ricans draws them strongly towards residence near nonHispanic blacks. Since Anglos avoid living near blacks, Puerto Ricans become bystander victims of Anglos' racial prejudice, leading to their residential segregation in society. Several observers have noted the paradoxical nature of Puerto Rican residential segregation in New York City. Kantrowitz (a) pointed out that, unlike other ethnic groups, Puerto Ricans have a relatively low degree of spatial separation from blacks, but are highly segregated from native whites. His findings were echoed by those of Rosenberg and Lake, who found that Puerto Rican segregation did not fit either the assimilation model, derived from the presumed experience of European ethnics, or the ecological model of invasion and succession, which described the black experience. Specifically, Puerto Rican segregation did not decline as social distance from Anglos1 lessened, but on the other hand it was not based on an underlying process of rapid residential turnover either. In subsequent research, Massey (b,c,d) confirmed the existence of a distinctly Puerto Rican segregation pattern, one characterized by an unusually high degree","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":145604057,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2147362267","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1093\/SF\/64.2.306","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Functionally graded cemented tungsten carbide (FG WC-Co) is one of the main research directions in the field of WC-Co over decades. Although it has long been recognized that FG WC-Co could outperform conventional homogeneous WC-Co owing to its potentially superior combinations of mechanical properties, until recently there has been a lack of effective and economical methods to make such materials. The lack of the technology has prevented the manufacturing and industrial applications of FG WC-Co from becoming a reality. This dissertation is a comprehensive study of an innovative atmosphere heat treatment process for producing FG WC-Co with a surface cobalt compositional gradient. The process exploited a triple phase field in W-C-Co phase diagram among three phases (solid WC, solid Co, and liquid Co) and the dependence of the migration of liquid Co on temperature and carbon content. WC-Co with a graded surface cobalt composition can be achieved by controlling the diffusion of carbon transported from atmosphere during sintering or during postsintering heat treatment. The feasibility of the process was validated by the successful preparations of FG WC-Co via both carburization and decarburization process following conventional liquid phase sintering. A study of the carburization process was undertaken to further understand and quantitatively modeled this process. The effects of key processing parameters (including heat treating temperature, atmosphere, and time) and key materials variables (involving Co content, WC grain size, and addition of grain growth inhibitors) on the formation of Co gradients were examined. Moreover, a carbon-diffusion controlled kinetic model was developed for simulating the formation of the gradient during the process. The parameters involved in this model were determined by thermodynamic calculations and regression-fit of simulation results with experimental data. In summary, this research first demonstrated the principle of the approach. Second, a model was developed to predict the gradients produced by the carbon-controlled atmosphere heat treatment process, which is useful for manufacturing WC-Co with designed gradients. FG WC-Co materials produced using this method are expected to exhibit superior performance in many applications and to have a profound impact on the manufacturing industries that use tungsten carbide tools.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":138388520,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2339831106","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Thus the aim of this thesis was to achieve a greater understanding of the various parameters that contribute to the variations of water absorption, thermal stability and mechanical properties, and to manipulate these parameters in order to produce an improved oil palm fruit bunch fibre reinforced polypropylene composite material. Several characterization techniques, such as tensile test, flexural test, impact test, water absorption analysis, thermal analysis and chemical analysis were used to assess the effect of each parameter. OPFB\/PP composites at four different sizes of 250 |im, 180 |im, 125 urn and 100 |im were investigated on the water uptake ability and were found to increase as the OPFB size increase. Meanwhile the thermal stability decrease at temperature range of 200\u00b0C 450 \u00b0C. The investigations also showed that the tensile and flexural properties were increased with the increasing of OPFB size and indicated that the 250 t\u0302m OPFB\/PP composites had the most enhances mechanical properties. PPnanoclay\/PP composites were compounded at four PPnanoclay loadings of 10 phr, 25 phr, 40 phr and 100 phr. The water uptake of PPnanoclay\/PP composites was found to increase as the PPnanoclay loading increase followed by the increase in thermal stability as well. Tensile tests, flexural tests and impact tests revealed that the optimum composite consisted of polypropylene with 25 phr PPnanoclay loading. Combination of OPFB and PPnanoclay as fillers in PP indicates that the tensile modulus, flexural modulus and flexural strength has increased at lower PPnanoclay loading and decreased at higher PPnanoclay loading. The optimum loading of PPnanoclay in OPFB\/PPnnoclay\/PP hybrid composites was also found to be at 25 phr. Further investigation on the effects of OPFB size in OPFB\/PPnnoclay\/PP hybrid composites showed that the 250 fim size gave the most mechanical properties enhancement. Properties improvement after OPFB treatment and increase of MAPP loading with the increase of OPFB loading suggested that the good bonding between filler and matrix contributed to the mechanical properties enhancement, decrease of water uptake and increase of thermal stability.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":54912270,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"In the interest of providing reliable and accurate measuring and test equipment to customers, a manufacturer or calibration service provider should understand and control out-of-tolerance risk\u2014the probability an instrument is actually out of tolerance after passing calibration. While the equipment is expected to be in tolerance when it leaves the calibration laboratory, it is just as important that it remain in tolerance during use. A manufacturer also does not want to see too many products fail calibration or be found out of tolerance later at recalibration. Pass yields must be high. Risks and yields are dependent on product specifications, guard bands, calibration uncertainties, and product characteristics, such as long-term stability, ambient temperature sensitivity, and linearity. This paper provides formulae for calculating various relevant risks and yields. Examples are given. Calculations are verified by computer simulation. 1. Introduction A manufacturer of measuring and test equipment must ensure that its products are reliable and accurate, especially if they are to be used as calibration standards. Instruments must be well designed, properly calibrated, and given realistic specifications. There must be low risk that an instrument is operating outside specifications when it leaves the factory. Likewise, there should be high confidence in the product as it experiences a variety of conditions in the field and that it will be found in tolerance when it is retested after use. At the same time, it is in the best interest of the manufacturer, and perhaps the customer too, that out-of-tolerance risks not be unnecessarily low. Otherwise the product might cost more than it should. It might be over-designed, have understated specifications, or be calibrated with an unduly expensive system. It might also mean that production yields could be improved with more liberal acceptance limits. Managing out-of-tolerance risks requires an understanding of the various product and calibration errors present during the calibration cycle. Then, with proper analysis, risks can be evaluated. Calibration equipment and procedures, including guard band limits, can be selected to provide adequate confidence without unnecessary costs. The manufacturer might realize that test uncertainty ratios can be less strict than otherwise assumed, perhaps even 2:1. Or it might be found that better product specifications are feasible.

Are the mechanisms found by Mincer still due and describe the new market reality? The author is aware of the ongoing criticism of the above perspective by the feminist economists that are ongoing since the 1980s. The main critique of the orthodox approach of neoclassical economists was a narrow view of the situation of women and not considering social and cultural aspects within their work. Whereas, whether the substitution effect is a precise theory to describe the situation of women in the labour market is outside the scope of the following work.

+{"text":"Dear Editor: A recent article in this journal described the results of a study of burnout in psychiatric residents. Using a 1-item scale to assess burnout, the investigators found that 21% of the residents were symptomatic. Aside from problems inherent in the absence of binding or consensual criteria to diagnose burnout, the article ignored research that connects burnout and depression. Mounting evidence, including evidence from research on health professionals, has linked burnout and depression and suggested that burnout is a depressive syndrome. Studies conducted in France and the United States found that teachers with high levels of burnout symptoms, compared to colleagues with few symptoms, were much more likely to experience the full array of depressive symptoms, including the most severe (e.g., suicidal ideation). In fact, in the French and US samples, burnout was assessed with the most commonly employed burnout instruments. In both studies, when measurement error was controlled, burnout and depressive symptoms correlated very highly (r .80). Moreover, burnout and depression have both been etiologically associated with unresolvable stress. Burnout is assumed to be a product of unresolvable job stress. Unresolvable job stress has been causally related to depression. Burnout and depression also share similar dispositional risk factors (e.g., neuroticism) and overlap in terms of allostatic load, an index of the cumulative biological cost of experienced psychosocial adversity. We therefore submit that in evaluating the distress experienced by overburdened psychiatric residents, investigators assess a problem with which psychiatry is already well familiar, namely, depression. Given the overlap of burnout with depression and the diagnostic blur surrounding burnout, we recommend that depression, rather than burnout, be assessed in occupational health research. In contrast to burnout, depression is nosologically well characterized and diagnosable using clinically validated instruments. To etiologically connect depression with work, the investigator can ask participants whether they mainly attribute their depressive symptoms to work-related problems.

+{"text":"It is believed that plastic surgery was performed in India and Egypt as long as 3,000 years ago. Social pressures for the replacement of the nose seem to have been the initiating factor. Amputation of the nose and sometimes of the ears was a common punishment for certain crimes, particularly for unfaithful wives (McDowell, 1969a). Similar punishment was meted out to criminals and sexual offenders. It was common practice in prehistoric times for children born with congenital defects of face or body to be killed at birth or left to die. The loss of the nose and the resulting disfigurement resulted in a much diminished social acceptability. And, in the case of amputation for crime or misbehaviour, total rejection by society. In an historical review of total nasal reconstruction, Nichter and his co-authors (1983) noted that the first description of multilation of the nose came from India with the deliberate amputation of Lady Surpunakha's nose in 1500 B.C. by Prince Lakshamana. The mighty King Ravana angered by this, gave his physicians the task of reconsructing the lady's nose and thus commenced the first documented account of nasal reconstructive surgery in India.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":45967535,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2156473218","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1017\/S002221510010739X","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"One of the author's two stated aims when writing this book, which is almost a personal odyssey\u2014sometimes written in the first person\u2014 was to provide investigators with an introduction to the \"new\" tumor markers, and in this he generally succeeds. In the context of this book, markers include the protein products of frequently mutated genes (e.g., cytokines and growth factors) and mutated genes in the transduction pathway, the cell cycle, and the apoptosis process (e.g., c-erbB-2 oncoprotein). Following a short introductory chapter, basic principles of the cell cycle are reviewed in Chapter 2, together with discussion of apoptosis, tumorigenesis, signal transduction, angiogenesis, and adhesion. The order of topics is slightly odd\u2014apoptosis is discussed before signal transduction\u2014but this chapter provides useful background information and includes some helpful diagrams (e.g., a simplified version of the signal transduction pathway) and tables listing some of the new tumor markers. The next two chapters consider in greater detail the new markers associated with signal transduction, the cell cycle and apoptosis, and angiogenesis and adhesion. In Chapter 5, markers associated with specific properties of tumor cells, but not related to growth regulation processes, are reviewed. Surprisingly, some relatively well-established markers (C-reactive protein, squamous cell carcinoma antigen, chromogranin A, and neuron-specific enolase) are included here, together with homocysteine, the matrix metalloproteinases, and the cyclooxygenases (COX-1 and COX-2). The clinical utility of new marker measurement in early detection, prognosis, and targeting of therapy is addressed in Chapter 6, in which more than 20 \"new\" markers are listed. The potential use of these markers for follow-up monitoring of cancer patients is illustrated with several examples from the author's own laboratory. Changes in marker concentrations generally followed patterns observed with established markers [e.g., carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) or prostate-specific antigen (PSA)] but did not always coincide exactly. New markers associated with 18 different cancers are listed and referenced in Chapter 7. It is unfortunate that the manner in which this information is presented might suggest to readers new to the field that these markers have an established clinical role when this is not the case. Most studies cited are in a research setting, and the clinical utility of these markers remains to be determined in future clinical trials. A major limitation of currently used tumor markers is their low clinical sensitivity, which for many markers precludes their use in diagnosis, but it is not until page 124 of this book that the lower still sensitivity of most of the new tumor markers is mentioned. For conventional tumor markers, measurement of a panel of markers has not, in general, improved sensitivity sufficiently to enable their use in diagnosis. Surprisingly, the author suggests that the sensitivity of the new markers might be increased by measuring the entire group of new tumor markers at the same time, although no experimental evidence is presented to support this. The cost implications of such an approach are, however, recognized in the final chapter of the book (Chapter 10), where surprisingly little space is devoted to emerging technologies that may make multiple marker measurements feasible in routine practice. Two commercially available systems that allow multiplexing of ELISAs are described, whereas microarray technology is mentioned only briefly. Encouraging investigators to investigate further the clinical applications of the new markers was the author's second aim in writing this book, and certainly his own enthusiasm for such study is evident throughout. To this end, basic principles of immunoassay development are briefly described in Chapter 9. Here the author makes the debatable comment that single incubation assays are usually associated with higher analytical sensitivity, and a somewhat misleading statement implying that whether an antibody is monoclonal or polyclonal depends on whether it is of mouse or rabbit origin. A general ELISA procedure is presented, together with protocols for 22 markers, mostly in-house assays developed by the author but also including a few commercially available assays. It is debatable that provision of these protocols, none of which is properly referenced to the primary literature, is helpful. Additionally, some protocols contain typographical errors, others have insufficient information to allow them to be reproduced, and one includes the warning that \"we experienced problems with this assay\". A major issue that is not discussed is the problem of standardization, clearly highly relevant when \"normal upper cutoffs\" are provided throughout the book for most of the markers. On page 35, mean normal values of 1.4, 4.5, and 36.3 ng\/mL are all provided for tumor growth factor1 (TGF1) without comment.

+{"text":"Air pollution caused by diesel engine emissions, especially particulate matters and nitric oxides emissions, is one of the biggest problems of current transportation. In the near future the emission of diesel particulate matters will become one of the most important factors that will affect the trend of engine development. Ambient airborne particles have adverse environmental and health effects and therefore their concentration in the air is regulated. Recent medical studies showed that different particle properties are important (for example: number\/concentration, active surface, chemical composition\/morphology) and may take role in the responsibility for their human health impact. Thus, diesel engines are one of the most important sources of particles in the atmosphere, especially in urban areas. Studying health effects and diesel engine particulate properties, it has been concluded that they are a complex mixture of solids and liquids. Biological activity of particulate matter may be related to particle sizes and their number.

We showed previously that Gln deactivated cPLA2 indirectly via dephosphorylating p38 mitogen\u2010activated protein kinase (MAPK), the major kinase for cPLA2 phosphorylation, through inducing MAPK phosphatase\u20101 (MKP\u20101). In this study, we investigated the precise mechanism underlying Gln deactivation of cPLA2. In lipopolysaccharide (LPS)\u2010treated mice, Gln injection resulted in dephosphorylation of phosphorylated cPLA2 (p\u2010cPLA2), which coincided with rapid Gln induction of MKP\u20101. MKP\u20101 small interfering RNA (siRNA) abrogated the ability of Gln to induce MKP\u20101 as well as the dephosphorylation of cPLA2. Co\u2010immunoprecipitation and in\u2010situ proximity ligation assay revealed a physical interaction between MKP\u20101 and p\u2010cPLA2. In a murine model of allergic asthma, we also demonstrated the physical interaction between MKP\u20101 and p\u2010cPLA2. Furthermore, Gln suppressed various allergic asthma phenotypes, such as neutrophil and eosinophil recruitments into the airway, airway levels of T helper type 2 (Th2) cytokines [interleukin (IL)\u20104, IL\u20105 and IL\u201013], airway hyperresponsiveness, mucin production and metabolites (leukotriene B4 and platelet\u2010activating factor) through inhibiting cPLA2 in a MKP\u20101\u2010dependent manner.

Aiming to improve the cycle stabilities of the alloys, Ni in the alloy was partly substituted by Fe, Cu and Al. The effects of the substitution of Fe, Cu and Al for Ni and the rapid quenching on the microstructures and electrochemical properties of the alloys were investigated in detail. The results obtained by XRD, SEM and TEM indicate that the element substitution has no influence on the phase compositions of the alloys, but it changes the phase abundances of the alloys. Particularly, the substitution of Al and Cu obviously increases the amount of the LaNi2 phase. The substitution of Al and Fe leads to a great refinement of the as-quenched alloy\u2032s grains. The substitution of Al strongly restrains the formation of the amorphous in the as-quenched alloy, but the substitution of Fe and Cu is quite helpful for the formation of an amorphous phase. The effects of the substitution of Fe, Cu and Al on the cycle stabilities of the as-cast and quenched alloys are different. The positive impact of the substitution elements on the cycle stabilities of the as-cast alloys is ranked in proper order Al>Fe>Cu, and for as-quenched alloys, the order is Fe>Al>Cu. Rapid quenching engenders an unconscious influence on the phase composition, but it markedly enhances the cycle stabilities of the alloys.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":135662726,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"847602484","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In this context special attention is paid to two phenomena: (a) the possible existence of passive mechanisms of female mate choice which generate consistent patterns of preferences, such as the known case of the female preference for males with more central territories in leks; (b) the possibility that there are non-genetic benefits for females in lek-breeding systems, which may account for the patterns of female mate choice found.

+{"text":"Wastewater stabilization ponds (WSPs) have been identified and are used extensively to \nprovide wastewater treatment throughout the world. It is often preferred to the \nconventional treatment systems due to its higher performance in terms of pathogen \nremoval, its low maintenance and operational cost. A review of the literature revealed that \nthere has been limited understanding on the fact that the hydraulics of waste stabilization \nponds is critical to their optimization. The research in this area has been relatively limited \nand there is an inadequate understanding of the flow behavior that exists within these \nsystems. This work therefore focuses on the hydraulic study of a laboratory-scale model \nWSP, operated under a controlled environment using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) \nmodelling and an identified optimization tools for WSP. \nA field scale prototype pond was designed for wastewater treatment using a typical \nresidential institution as a case study. This was reduced to a laboratory-scale model using \ndimensional analysis. The laboratory-scale model was constructed and experiments were \nrun on them using the wastewater taken from the university wastewater treatment facility. \nThe study utilized Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) coupled with an optimization \nprogram to efficiently optimize the selection of the best WSP configuration that satisfy \nspecific minimum cost objective without jeopardizing the treatment efficiency. This was \ndone to assess realistically the hydraulic performance and treatment efficiency of scaled \nWSP under the effect of varying ponds configuration, number of baffles and length to \nwidth ratio. Six different configurations including the optimized designs were tested in the \nlaboratory to determine the effect of baffles and pond configurations on the effluent \ncharacteristics. The verification of the CFD model was based on faecal coliform \ninactivation and other pollutant removal that was obtained from the experimental data. \nThe results of faecal coliform concentration at the outlets showed that the conventional \n70% pond-width baffles is not always the best pond configuration as previously reported \nin the literature. Several other designs generated by the optimization tool shows that both \nshorter and longer baffles ranging between 49% and 83% for both single and multiobjective \noptimizations could improve the hydraulic efficiency of the ponds with different \nvariation in depths and pond sizes. The inclusion of odd and even longitudinal baffle \narrangement which has not been previously reported shows that this configuration could \nimprove the hydraulic performance of WSP. A sensitivity analysis was performed on the \nmodel parameters to determine the influence of first order constant (k) and temperature \n(T) on the design configurations. The results obtained from the optimization algorithm \nconsidering all the parameters showed that changing the two parameters had effect on the \neffluent faecal coliform and the entire pond configurations. \nThis work has verified its use to the extent that it can be realistically applied for the \nefficient assessment of alternative baffle, inlet and outlet configurations, thereby, \naddressing a major knowledge gap in waste stabilization pond design. The significance of \nCFD model results is that water and wastewater design engineers and regulators can use \nCFD to reasonably assess the hydraulic performance in order to reduce significantly faecal \ncoliform concentrations and other wastewater pollutants to achieve the required level of \npathogen reduction for either restricted or unrestricted crop irrigation.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":109320655,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1868053740","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"One hundred years ago, abnormal metabolism of cancer cell was regarded as one of the most important pathological features of malignancy. Recently, with the development of system biology, researchers regained the interest in regulating cancer metabolism. In 1920s', Dr. Otto Warburg discovered that, even when oxygen is ample, malignant cells still prefer the anaerobic glycolysis, and the rate of glucose uptake is high while the overall glycolysis increases. Cancer cells divide faster than normal cells, hence they need more bioenergy, and they need to change their metabolism to produce the extra energy. In recent 20 years, the link between high rate of glycolysis and cancer was re-evaluated and has inspired enthusiasm upon research into the metabolism of cancer cells. Novel diagnostic methods and new drugs were created by the understanding of the features of cancer metabolism. Glycolysis in cancer cells has clinical implications in cancer diagnosis, treatment and prognosis. The purpose of this review is to focus on the mechanism of high rate of glycolysis in cancer and its significance in cancer diagnosis and therapies. The regulatory network of cancer is complex, system biology might help us to find the clue. There are evidences showing that mixture of drugs has therapeutic advantages in clinical practice. Combinations of anti-neoplasm drugs have already been administered with encouraging results. Therefore, the multi-targeted MCA advised therapy might be the most promising strategy for cancer. The study for novel inhibitors from medicinal herbs are now ongoing.

The YPH containing 80 g L\u22121 of reducing sugars (glucose, xylose, ribose and others) was obtained by acid hydrolysis (H2SO4) of 100 g L\u22121 of yam peel and used for fermentation.

+{"text":"Background Inspite of immediate technical success, neointimal hyperplasia and restenosis remain the Achilles heel of endovascular interventions. Drug-coated balloons (DCBs) have shown promising outcomes regarding anti-restenotic efficacy in management of femoro-popliteal arterial lesions compared to uncoated balloon. Objectives To evaluate the efficacy of the paclitaxel-coated balloon versus uncoated balloon angioplasty in treatment of femoropopliteal lesions regarding primary patency and restenosis at 12 months. Patients and Methods Between Sept 2017 and Sept 2019, this prospective randomized study was performed at Menoufia University hospitals. Sixty patients suffering symptomatic lower limb ischemia (Rutherford category 3 to 5) were randomly assigned into group A (30 patients) that were treated by DCB angioplasty, and group B (30 patients) that were treated by uncoated balloon (UCB) angioplasty. The primary patency, mean diameter restenosis, and binary restenosis (\u226550% diameter stenosis) of the treated lesions at 12 months were collected and analyzed. Results Baseline characteristics were comparable in both groups. The 12-month mean diameter restenosis was significantly lower in DCB group than UCB group (27.8\u00b135.2% vs. 44.9\u00b133.8% respectively, P<0.001). Furthermore, the binary restenosis rates was significantly lower in DCB patients as compared with the UCB's (27% vs. 46% respectively, P<0.001). The primary patency was significantly better in DCB group (70% vs. 48% respectively, P<0.001). There were no procedure-related deaths in either study group. Conclusions Treatment of symptomatic femoro-popliteal disease with paclitaxel coated balloon angioplasty is associated with superior anti-restenotic efficacy that provides a better primary patency rate compared to uncoated balloon angioplasty at 12 months.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":211233712,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3033563570","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.4103\/ejs.ejs_199_19","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"After its introduction in the mid-1990s, the concept of parenting advantage was quickly adopted by many standard textbooks on strategic management. Empirical studies revealed that the concept is considered highly relevant for strategy formulation and portfolio management at corporate level; however, its broader application has not lived up to expectations. This paper assumes that this is due to two major limitations of the original concept: firstly, it neglects the indirect compositional effects of the portfolio that are not due to active involvement of the corporate parent, and secondly, the concept has not been sufficiently operationalized to the level of specific value-added activities. In order to address this apparent research gap, the major attempt of this paper is the development of a theoretical framework that can be used to investigate actual parenting approaches of corporate headquarters and to analyze the relevance of different value added activities in corporate practice, as well as their potential combinations in distinct parenting strategies. To this end, we have developed a three-dimensional framework that accounts for (1) corporate-to-business as well as business-to-business interactions, (2) value-added as well as value-destroyed activities, and (3) strategic as well as operational levers. We operationalized this framework by assigning a broad set of individual activities to these levers, derived from the existing literature of value creation in multi-business companies.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":204829843,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

THE RELATIONSHIP OF SCIENCE TEACHING SELF EFFICACY AND OUTCOME EXPECTANCY TO THE DRAW-A-SCIENCETEACHER-TEACHING CHECKLIST Kevin Finson, Western Illinois University Iris M. Riggs, California State University San Bernardino Joseph Jesunathadas, California State University San Bernardino One concern of science educators is the beliefs of preservice science teachers toward science teaching. Consequently, the goal of developing positive beliefs in preservice teachers emerges frequently in science education courses and programs. Studies have indicated that, particularly at the elementary school level, low comfort levels toward science and\/or science teaching tend to lead to the sporadic teaching of science, the teaching of science during inadequate blocks of time, or the omission of science instruction from the school day (Finson & Brewer, 1994; Riggs & Enochs, 1990; Wislon & Scharmann, 1994; Koballa & Crawley, 1985). In science teaching contexts, self-efficacy is an individual's belief that one has the ability to effectively perform science teaching behaviors (called personal science teaching efficacy) as well as one's belief that his\/her students can learn science given factors external to the teacher (called science teaching outcome expectancy) (Ramey-Gassert, Shroyer & Stayer, 1996). When teachers have low self-efficacy, their teaching tends to be characterized by authoritative, teacher-centered roles with a less clear understanding of the various developmental levels of their students. Rubeck and Enochs (1990) reported that teachers who were weak in content background tended to have significantly lower personal efficacy than did teachers with strong content backgrounds. In contrast, teachers with high self-efficacy tended to teach in way I PERMISSION TO REPRODUCE AND DISSEMINATE THIS MATERIAL HAS BEEN GRANTED BY TO THE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES INFORMATION CENTER (ERIC) 2 U.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION Office of Educational Research and Improvement EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES INFORMATION CENTER (ERIC) This document has been reproduced as ived from the person or organization originating it.

One logical conclusion is that the way preservice teachers view themselves and their roles in a science teaching context is at least partially derived from their self-efficacy. The attitudes students possess with respect to science may also be related to the ways they perceive themselves in the role of being a scientist. Yager and Yager (1985), for example, found that if the work in which scientists engage is viewed as being unpleasant, then one's perception of a scientist (or the prospect of becoming a scientist) becomes more negative. Investigations into the perceptions of scientists have occurred for decades, with a notable early study being Mead and Metraux's work in 1957. Their work led later researchers to examine elements of students' perceptions which could be classified as stereotypical (Chambers, 1983; Schibeci & Sorensen, 1993; Ward, 1977). The elements of one's perceptions about scientists are revealed through drawings one makes of a scientist. These stereotypical elements were refined by Chambers (1983) in his Draw-A-Scientist Test and later organized into a quantifiable checklist (the DAST-C) format by Finson, Beaver and Cramond (1995). Thomas and Pederson (1998) reasoned that since students' drawings reveal much about their perceptions of scientists, drawings might also reveal students' perceptions about themselves as science teachers. In their work, Thomas and Pederson began with the DAST-C and revised it to include elements they judged to be characteristic of science classrooms and science","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":150470780,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"168747291","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Based on its advantages, compact polarimetric (CP) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is considered to be a good option for earth observations. This paper proposes an adaptive method of ship detection in CP SAR images operating in the hybrid-polarimetric (HP) mode. First, according to the analysis of scattering between ships and sea background, a novel decomposition approach, named power\u2013entropy (PE) decomposition, is developed. Based on this approach, two components of the scattering power, the high-entropy scattering amplitude (HESA) and low-entropy scattering amplitude, are separated. We demonstrate that the HESA component is an effective physical quantity indicating the difference between the ship and its background and hence can potentially be used for ship detection using HP SAR data. The generalized Gamma distribution ( $\\text{G}\\Gamma \\text{D}$ ) is found suitable for the characterization of HESA statistics of sea clutter with a wide range of homogeneity. As a result, the adaptive constant false-alarm rate (CFAR) technique based on the HESA detector is proposed. Experiments performed using HP measurements emulated from L-band ALOS-PALSAR and C-band RADARSAT-2 full polarimetric data validate the soundness and superiority of the proposed CFAR method based on the HESA detector. Both the theoretical proof and experimental results show that the HESA improves the ship\u2013sea contrast (or the signal\u2013clutter ratio) more than popular detectors, such as the entropy and SPAN. Moreover, the  $\\text{G}\\Gamma \\text{D}$  is a versatile model for the description of the statistical behavior of both the HESA and comparable detectors.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":52109789,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2796338532","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/TGRS.2018.2815592","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Abstract Many anticipated that the formal demise of public apartheid would free black citizens of South Africa from systematic racial oppression; but apartheid was privatized and carries on, with the aid of 'Black governmentality'. The brutality of the apartheid regime gave rise to a common misunderstanding of White settler coloniality as a public, sovereign, and repressive mode of power imposed on and against Black subjects and African culture. But power is not just repressive. It is complex and productive. Public apartheid was formally signed off, but its features are reproduced by citizens in private lives, often without our knowing it. Our account of Black governmentality explains such self-defeating subjective agency in the post-apartheid context with reference to Biko's writing on Black shame, wherein Black South African subjects are secondary agents of apartheid. We demonstrate how and why apartheid is perpetuated in private by Black governmentality, as cultivated in subject-formation, drawing on Biko's insights into the structure of this relationship. In so doing we correct a misunderstanding of freedom from apartheid, common in scholarly receptions of Biko's writing, as a negation of the White face of public representation. With reference to Foucault's theory of power, we offer an alternative account of Biko's insights into subjective and national liberation, to explain how he sees colonial power as a facticity-inducing force for Black subjectivity.

+{"text":"Local electrochemical impedance mapping (LEIM) represents a potentially important tool in the characterization of discrete electrochemical phenomenon on heterogeneous surfaces, such as the degradation of a coated aluminumalloy. Since LEIM is an emerging tool, it is essential to resolve between real material and interfacial changes and a possible sampling artifact to the measured LEIM response. To this end, both analytical and numerical models were developed to calculate the field above an equipotential disk to examine possible LEIM measurement artifacts. Several features in LEI maps which could be the result of an artifact in the measured field above a corroding region were addressed. These included changes in the field due to the following: (i) edge effects. (ii) two closely spaced corroding sites affecting spatial resolution, (iii) a change in radius of a corroding site, including the ability of LEI to resolve small sites. Numerical analysis was found to snore realistically model the finite dimensions and discrete change in potential that were used in actual LEIM experiments. The calculated field above the equipotential disk was then compared to experimental LEI maps of gold disk microelectrodes embedded in SiO 2 . Edge effects were found to be an unlikely source for experimental observations of reduced admittance. The spatial resolution of the LEI probe was predicted through theoretical modeling and determined experimentally to be sufficient to resolve two disk separated by 35 \u03bcm. The probe was also predicted and shown experimentally to have the capability to measure a disk of radius 17.5 \u03bcm.

+{"text":"Stress is a broad term which implies a threat to which the body needs to adjust. Stress may be classified as physical, psychological, or interoeeptive in nature, but usually contains components of all three classifications The adjustment to stress induces a broad r\u00e4nge of neuroendoerine, physiological and behavioural changes to allow for a rapid recovery or adaptation to the change. The hypothalamic-adrenal medullary system involves the hypothalamus, p.tuitary gland, the sympathetic neural pathways to the adrenal medulla, and the release of epinephnne by the adrenal gland. This short acting stress-response was originally proposed by Walter Cannon and is refeued to as the Fight-Flight Syndrome (FFS). The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical (HPA) stressresponse system with the release of corticosteroids represents a longer-term, sustained response to Stressors and was conceptualised by Hans Selye (General Adaptation Syndrome, GAS). These two classical stress response Systems have been linked to different coping pattem in that FFS is primarily activated in situations of threat of control, whereas the pituitary-adrenocortical system is activated in situations of loss of control. Several studies have confirmed that unpredictable or uncontrollable Stimuli will activate the hippocampal pathway and the HPA axis leading to depression of behaviour. The ability to adjust to some Stressors (controllability), however seems to be under the control ofthe amygdala through activation ofthe sympathetic nervous system and prepares the animal for fight and flight responses. In the past, housing Systems and handling procedures for farm animals were mainly assessed by descriptive behavioural studies using indicators presumed to be related to stress (i.e Stereotypie behaviours). Physiological indicators included endocrine changes on the pituitary-adrenal-axis by measuring adrenocorticotropin (ACTH), corticosteroids and catecholamines. The neuroendoerine and immune system has been studied in relation to stress effects at a cellular or neural level during the last decade. All these studies were often conducted in an isolated manner without considering that the neuroendoerine and immune system are communicating with each other and are ultimately influenced by the animals individual pereeption of a Stressor. Psychological Stressors perceived as threats may be equally important as those ofa physical nature in challenging coping mechanisms. Situations of uncertainty, social pressure and fear are potent Stressors with relevance for the welfare of animals, leading to severe damage to specific target organs and tissues or even to death in some species. Transportation is considered as a major Stressor for farm animals and might have deletenous effects on the health, welfare, Performance and ultimately on product quality. Studies on the assessment of stress during animal housing, management procedures and transportation require non-invasive methods as classical approaches of data collection with direct human interference (i.e., for blood collection and heart rate measurement) might directly alter the stress response. Telemetrie devices for measuring heart and respiration rate, body temperature and blood pressure are useful tools to obtain undisturbed responses. Also, noninvasive measurements of stress indicating metabolites in saliva, faeces or urine has been recently developed and validated. Parallel to behavioural observations, these physiological measurements provide valuable information on coping strategies and the consequences for the welfare offarm animals.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":42302100,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Light Field (LF) is very simple in that it creates views by combining pixels from images. Especially, 3D LF considers light rays passing through a line, not a plane, so it is easy to captures light rays. This paper proposes a LF rendering method in a 3D LF composed of 360\u00b0 images, which supports maximum field of view. Existing 3D LF acquires light rays with a general camera such as an action camera or a DSLR camera, and the conventional 3D LF rendering takes this into consideration. If the 3D LF rendering method is applied to the 3D LF composed of 360\u00b0 images, unnatural views are rendered. To cope with this problem, this paper proposes two rendering schemes. First is warping, which is used to create views from equirectangular 360\u00b0 images. It serves to straighten curved objects in a equirectangular image. Second is light ray selection considering vertical incident angle (LRS-VA). The relationship between light rays and viewpoint motion depends on vertical incident angle, but the conventional 3D LF rendering does not take this into account. By considering this relationship, LRS-VA renders the top and bottom pole views more natural. In addition, LF rendering requires very fast operation speed, and this paper verifies the real-time operation of the proposed method through GPU implementation.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":252706084,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/ITC-CSCC55581.2022.9895012","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Most governments have today abandoned the belief that trade union leaders are able, through wage restraint, to save them from the evils of inflation and unemployment, only if full employment were pursued in the ordinary Keynesian way, i.e. via general reflation. Money wage increases are more determined by economic and psychological forces among grass-roots workers and employers than by centralized rational thinking. Because of this one cannot expect governments to press unemployment down much below the present 'natural rate': 7-8 percent. The recommendation often heard nowadays that trade unions should permit wage relativities to vary according to varying profitability of enterprises and branches of industry and thus promote productive restructuring by stimulating worker mobility in desirable directions is however also questionable. Taxing the 'good' by high wages and subsidizing the 'bad' by low wages may put a brake on, rather than accelerate, the restructuring. This paper argues that it is better to promote worker mobility by an active labour-market policy, generously helping those willing to move or retrain themselves for productive jobs. An active labour-market policy would also reduce the entrepreneurial costs of increasing production and employment. To reduce the specific costs connected with expansion by a reallocation of social charges, other taxes and subsidies thus making expansion in itself an anti-inflationary force, is a principle that could be applied more widely and effectively than hitherto.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":153582653,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2002239378","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1177\/0143831X8781003","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Heat Transfer Enhancement or intensification is one of the most important technical challenges faced by numerous industries like manufacturing, automobiles, etc. It is one of the key factors in heat exchangers design while working to design the compact devices. The requirement of the compact heat exchangers like hair pin heat exchanger is very concern where the heat transfer area is low. The conventional methods of cooling like fins and micro channels have already extended to their limits. As the traditional fluids of heat transfer such as water, oil and ethylene glycol are innately poor heat transfer fluids, the new technique of dispersing the nano particles in the base fluid called nano fluids have emerged in enhancing the heat transfer rate. This paper presents the analytical investigations are carried on the hair pin heat exchanger using forced convective heat transfer. Three different types of nano particles TiC, MgO and Ag individually at different volume concentrations of 0.1%, 0.3%, 0.5%, 0.8% using water and glycerin as base fluid were used. The fluid flow is considered to be turbulent. CFD analysis is performed on the hair pin heat exchanger by applying the properties of the above nano fluid concentrations to obtain the heat transfer coefficient and heat transfer rate. For this a 3D model of the heat exchanger is done in CREO 3.0 and imported to the ANSYS(FLUENT).Theoretical calculations were carried to obtain the properties for nano fluids which are used as inputs for analysis. From the results it was found that the Ag\/waterglycerin nano fluid shows the best heat transfer rate compared with the other two nano fluids Keywords\u2014 Convective Heat Transfer, Hair pin Heat Exchanger, Nano fluids, Turbulent, CFD Analysis, Heat Transfer Coefficient, Heat transfer Rate.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":139731392,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2794350359","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.17577\/IJERTV7IS010089","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"A fast stripline beam kicker and septum are used to dynamically switch a high current electron beam between two beamlines. The transport of the beam through these structures is determined by the quality of the applied electromagnetic fields as well as temporal effects due to the wakefields produced by the beam. In addition, nonlinear forces in the structure will lead to emittance growth. The effect of these issues is investigated analytically and by using particle transport codes. Due to the distributed nature of the beam-induced effects, multiple macro-particles (slices) are used in the particle transport code, where each slice consists of an ensemble of particles with an initial distribution in phase space. Changes in the multipole moments of an individual slice establish electromagnetic wakes in the structure and are allowed to interact with subsequent beam macro-particles to determine the variation of the steering, focusing, and emittance growth during the beam pulse.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":55472274,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"86597823","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The most significant changes are as follows: change of residence, with a clear predominance of low densities and single-family type dwellings, to territories increasingly further away; the decentralisation of industry; the emergence of new locations for services, polarised on arterial infrastructure and, finally, some internal renovation operations (new central areas) in large and medium-sized cities, in which services and facilities in general play an important role.

Because VCFS and the concomitant symptomatology result from a known genetic origin, the biological and behavioral characteristics of the syndrome provide an optimal framework for conceptualizing the associations among genes, brain development, and behavior. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of the parental origin of the 22q11.2 microdeletion on the brain development of children and adolescents with VCFS.\n\n\nMETHODS\nEighteen persons with VCFS and 18 normal control subjects were matched individually for age and sex. Results of DNA polymorphism analyses determined the parental origin of the deletion. Nine persons with VCFS had a deletion on the maternally derived chromosome 22; 9 persons, on the paternally derived chromosome 22. High-resolution magnetic resonance imaging scans were analyzed to provide quantitative measures of gray and white matter brain tissue.\n\n\nRESULTS\nTotal brain volume was approximately 11% smaller in the VCFS group than in controls.

While animated images enhance websites, infographics, logos, e-books, and social media, creating such animations from still pictures is difficult for novices and tedious for experts. Creating automatic tools is challenging due to ambiguities in object segmentation, relative depth ordering, and non-existent temporal information. With a few user drawn scribbles as input, our mixed initiative creative interface extracts repetitive texture elements in an image, and supports animating them. Our system also facilitates the creation of multiple layers to enhance depth cues in the animation. Finally, after analyzing the artwork during segmentation, several animation processes automatically generate kinetic textures that are spatio-temporally coherent with the source image. Our results, as well as feedback from our user evaluation, suggest that our system effectively allows illustrators and animators to add life to still images in a broad range of visual styles.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":52087529,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2897003174","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1145\/3242587.3242612","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Indomethacin blocks the constitutive (COX\u20101) and inducible (COX\u20102) forms of cyclo\u2010oxygenase, and is therefore nonspecific in its action. To test the hypothesis that COX\u20102 mediates the bone formation response to loading, rats were treated with vehicle, NS\u2010398 (a specific COX\u20102 inhibitor) or indomethacin at 0.02, 0.2, or 2.0 mg\/kg p.o. 3 h before loading the right tibia in four\u2010point bending. Bending or sham loads of 65 N were applied for one bout of 300 cycles and bone formation assessed 5\u20138 days after loading. Mechanically induced bone formation at the endocortical surface was calculated by subtracting formation indices of the left leg (control) from those of the right (loaded), and woven bone surface and area were measured at the periosteal surface. Endocortical bone formation was significantly increased by bending but not sham loading (p < 0.05). The increase in the endocortical bone formation rate and mineralizing surface caused by bending was only partially inhibited by indomethacin, even at the highest dose, whereas NS\u2010398 completely blocked bone formation at all doses (p < 0.05). The mineral apposition rate was depressed in a dose\u2010response fashion by NS\u2010398 (p < 0.05), but not by indomethacin.

Estimating the abundance, movement, and survival of brook trout in the wild is an important task for environmental management, and current methods often involve physical tagging or collection of DNA samples for each of the fish as their unique identifier. However, this process is expensive and inefficient. Meanwhile, although deep learning methods have proven effective for individual recognition of humans, it remains challenging to apply this system to wildlife biology due to fewer available images, different biometric patterns, and relatively poor image quality. In this paper, we develop a framework to automate the process of individual recognition of brook trout. Distinguished from simply adopting traditional feature descriptors (e.g., SIFT and HOG) or using deep neural networks on the raw images, our framework utilizes multiple modalities consisting of the region of interest and gray-scaled pigmentation patterns. We use these multiple modality features in a Convolutional Neural network to generate feature vectors as fish descriptors. These descriptors are then used to distinguish individual brook trout by ranking their relative distance in latent space. Our experimental framework demonstrates better results than baseline methods such as SIFT and HOG while being more robust to distortions characteristic of large imagery datasets collected through crowdsourcing and citizen science.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":256317739,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/BigData55660.2022.10020966","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The hyperthermophilic archaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus exhibits a complex transcriptional response to UV-irradiation involving 55 genes (Fr\u00f6ls et al. 2007). Among the most strongly UV-induced genes a putative pili biogenesis operon has been observed. Here we provide the first detailed description of pili in the domain Archaea encoded by an operon of six genes, including a potential secretion ATPase, two prepilins, a putative transmembrane protein and a protein of unknown function. The pili formation was inducible by UV-light (254 nm). Electron microscopy and image reconstruction showed that the pili were straight, variable in length; they were not bundled or polarised and were composed of three evenly spaced helices with 100 \u00c5 in diameter, thereby clearly being distinguishable from the archaeal flagella. Both prepilin proteins possess a class III signal sequence and the cleavage of the SSO0118 prepilin by an archaeal typeIV prepilin peptidase was demonstrated in vitro. A deletion mutant, replacing the central typeII\/IV secretion ATPase (SSO0120), verified that the pili were encoded by the UV-dependently induced operon (sso0117 through sso0121) named upsoperon (UV-inducible pili operon of Sulfolobus) and that they mediated the cellular aggregation. We showed further that the cellular aggregation was a UV-dose dependent, dynamic process, not inducible by other stressors like temperature or pH, but stimulated by chemically induced double strand breaks in DNA. We also showed that UV-irradiation strongly increases the conjugative activity of S. solfataricus. In the context of further transcriptional data we conclude that pili-mediated cellular aggregation probably mediates enhanced conjugation, which eventually leads to an enhanced repair of UV-damaged DNA in S. solfataricus via homologous recombination.

+{"text":"The terrestrial bodies that maintain their intrinsic magnetic fields have dynamos in the fluid cores, in which convection is developed by a certain kind of compositional bouyancy sources. In the Earth's core, it is given by light element ejection into the outer core caused by inner core growth. In other words, convection occurs as a \"bottom-up\" type convection. On the other hand, iron ejection due to solidification of iron could occur at the core-mantle boundary under a certain condition, and the solidified iron falls downward like snow drop, that is so-called \"iron snow\". The iron can remelt, and then the fluid motion is driven as a \"top-down\" type convection. The solidification depth strongly depends on temperature-pressure conditions and bulk sulfur content within the core. In this study, the basic features of the flow driven by these two types of convection are investigated. For this purpose, onset of top-down and bottom-up compositional convections in rotating spherical shells are studied as a linear stability problem. We consider the Boussinesq fluid contained in rotating spherical shells, of which radius ratio is 0.2. The linearized governing equations, that is, conservation equations of the momentum and mass, and the transport equation of composition, are solved as an eigenvalue problem.

Data came from semi-structured interviews with teachers, students and stakeholders, observations and document study. We identified nine interrelated enabling strategies teachers used. To foster students' observation of wickedness through boundary awareness, they encouraged mutual acquaintance, open exploration, opportunities for learning, and multi-perspectivity. To foster students' action through boundary work, they encouraged initial contact, joint action and multifaceted perspectives on value creation. To foster the interplay between boundary awareness and work, they encouraged successive refinement and structure while embracing wickedness.

+{"text":"In this chapter an equilibrium-based set-theoretic approach to mathematical abstraction and axiomatization is presented for resolving the LAFIP paradox (Ch. 1) and for enabling logically definable causality (Ch. 2). Bipolar set theory is formally presented, which leads to YinYang bipolar dynamic logic (BDL). BDL in zeroth-order, 1st-order, and modal forms are presented with four pairs of dynamic De Morgan's laws and a bipolar universal modus ponens (BUMP). BUMP as a key element of BDL enables logically definable causality and quantum computing. Soundness and completeness of a bipolar axiomatization are asserted; computability is proved; computational complexity is analyzed. BDL can be considered a non-linear bipolar dynamic generalization of Boolean logic plus quantum entanglement. Despite its nonlinear bipolar dynamic quantum property, it does not compromise the basic law of excluded middle. The recovery of BDL to Boolean logic is axiomatically proved through depolarization and the computability of BDL is proved. A redress on the ancient paradox of the liar is presented with a few observations on G\u00f6del's incompleteness theorem. Based on BDL, bipolar relations, bipolar transitivity, and equilibrium relations are introduced. It is shown that a bipolar equilibrium relation can be a non-linear bipolar fusion of many equivalence relations. Thus, BDL provides a logical basis for YinYang bipolar relativity\u2013an equilibrium-based axiomatization of social and physical sciences.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":18004030,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.4018\/978-1-60960-525-4.ch003","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Nowadays many embedded applications need to be secure and demand low power operations. The power consumption of designs varies with the implementation choices made by designers. Speed increasing is a key parameters for today's processor but usually this means more power consumption. A trade-off between these 2 parameters must be found. This work involves the development of the Key Management Unit (KMU) based on a new PUF module. This component is responsible for the generation and distribution of the cryptographic keys. Security services based on cryptographic mechanisms assume cryptographic keys to be distributed to the communicating parties prior to secure communications. The secure management of these keys is one of the most critical elements when integrating cryptographic functions into a system, since even the most elaborate security concept will be ineffective if the key management is weak. Trusted Execution Environments are quickly becoming a preferred method for providing isolation between secure and non-secure execution environments. The protection of these environments, as well as their software structure, is still a primary area of interest and research. The ability to use a Physically Unclonable Function to generate a unique-per-device AES key provides an excellent mechanism for protection of a Trusted Execution Environment at rest through encryption. These keys can also be used to manage modification of the TEE during execution. A physically unclonable function (PUF) circuit extracts unique identification data from device variability, and it is an important technology for authentication and cryptographic key generation, as a countermeasure against counterfeiting of devices, etc. An analysis of different implementation choices with different constraints is made. The energy results are compared to evaluate the savings as well as the latency and area. We prototype our design on NEXYS 4 DDR FPGA.

The interesting feature here is that the y-coordinate is independent of a. We will show that this result is not as unique as it initially appears; there are many families of curves whose tangent lines at a fixed y-coordinate go through the origin. Shifting attention to the x-coordinate, it turns out that families of curves whose tangent lines at a fixed x-coordinate go through the origin have some interesting properties. In particular, these functions form the kernel of a linear transformation. The tangent line to a differentiable function f at the point (c, f(c)) with c :i 0 goes through the origin if and only if f'(c) = f(c)\/c. By shifting, scaling, and tilting a given graph, it is possible to make the modified graph have a tangent line go through the origin at any given value of x or y. These geometric operations on a graph can be performed by modifying the original function by linear factors. This is the main idea used in the next paragraph.

Participants were 98 young men between the ages of 18 and 23. An unstimulated saliva sample was collected for determination of testosterone and participants completed a questionnaire, including Zuckerman's sensation-seeking scale. Facial photos were obtained and rated for masculinity by anonymous observers. Both right and left hands were scanned to determine 2D:4D digit ratios. In univariate analyses, salivary testosterone (n = 91; r = 0.22; P = 0.04) and facial masculinity (n = 91; r = 0.23; P = 0.04) were significant predictor of boredom susceptibility, but not the disinhibition, thrill-seeking, experience seeking subscales. 2D:4D was not associated with any of measure of sensation-seeking. In multivariate models, facial masculinity was a significant predictor of boredom susceptibility (n = 82; b = 0.35; P = 0.001), controlled for left 2D:4D and salivary testosterone. These results suggest that among men, current and pubertal testosterone exposure are associated with greater need for immediate stimulation, but not other forms of sensation-seeking. This result is consistent with previous findings of a positive relationship between salivary testosterone and delayed discounting, and may reflect the impact of testosterone on dopaminergic reward mechanisms.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":221438003,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1823760068","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1002\/AJHB.20760","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

First, a time-frequency distribution, i.e., a Choi-Williams distribution, is calculated from the torsional vibration of a milling machine spindle. Second, scattering matrices and orthogonalization are employed to identify the time-frequency components that are best correlated to the extent of wear. Third, a neural network is trained to estimate the extent of wear from these critical time-frequency components. To reduce the cost of the system, a nonlinear model-based virtual sensor is developed to eliminate the need for a permanent torsional vibration sensor, which is more expensive and bulky than the translational vibration sensor.

+{"text":"Clinical trials have traditionally followed a fixed randomized design, where patients are typically allocated once, at random, and usually equally to various treatments. Such designs provide a clean way of separating out the effects of alternate treatments. Response-adaptive designs, where assignment to treatments evolves as patient outcomes are observed, are gaining in popularity due to potential for improvements in both cost and efficiency over traditional designs. Such designs can be modeled as a Bayesian adaptive Markov decision process (BAMDP), essentially an MDP with unknown transition probabilities. Given the forward-looking nature of the underlying algorithms which solve BAMDP, the problem size grows as the trial becomes larger or more complex, often exponentially, making it computationally challenging to solve. In this study, we propose grid-based approximation as a way to reduce the problem dimensionality and the associated computationally burden. The proposed methods also open the possibility of implementing adaptive designs to large clinical trials. Further, we use numerical examples to demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach, including the effects of number of patient observations and the grid resolution.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":9625508,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2408081406","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.5220\/0004909504600465","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

However, the mechanism of root architecture on shear strength increments needed to be studied and analysed. This paper presents a man-made direct shear test to compare the effects of six tree species roots on soil reinforcement. Thus, root tensile strength, diameter, root area ratio (RAR), inclination and distribution were measured to study the differences between root architecture. Meanwhile, stress propagation simulations were conducted to analyse the mechanisms of root architecture on soil reinforcement. Results showed that shear strength increment value corresponded to P. massoniana (42.4 kPa), followed by C. camphora (37.6 kPa), N. aurata (36.0 kPa), L. kwangtungensis (28.8 kPa), G. acuminata (27.4 kPa) and S. laurina (23.0 kPa). Root architecture that contained taproots (VH-type) and widely distributed roots (H-type) showed larger shear strength increments than that contained oblique roots (R-type) when the initial friction between soil and root was ignored. When there are thick, widely distributed roots in the root system, the resistance of root architecture on shear failure would become larger. Root diameter class and RAR cannot be used to reflect the effects of root architecture on soil shear strength increment. While estimating the different tree species roots on soil reinforcement in field, initial friction between soil and root should be considered as important as root architecture.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":91054460,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2795318756","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.18520\/CS\/V114\/I06\/1250-1260","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Mars Global Surveyor (MGS), one of the first pair of spacecraft built in the program, was successfully launched on November 7, 1996. MGS is expected to arrive at Mars on September 11, 1997, and will be captured in an elliptical orbit using conventional chemical propulsion. Aerobraking in the upper atmosphere will then be used to reduce orbital energy and establish a nearly circular mapping orbit. During aerobraking, the spacecraft will pass through different atmospheric densities and be subjected to various aerodynamic and heating loads. To ensure that the MGS spacecraft can maintain aerodynamic stability and encounter heating rates not exceeding design values, an analysis of the spacecraft aerothermodynamics and the effectiveness of the Attitude Control System (ACS) thrusters was performed. This paper will present the results of this analysis and the methods used to obtain them. The first two sections will describe the spacecraft, the aerobraking maneuver, and the configurations associated with it. MGS will pass through altitudes that include the free molecule and transition flow regimes. The Graduate Student, Member A1AA.

A highly detailed geometry was used for the computational model. The next section will present the results for the aerobraking configuration, which was designed to provide sufficient drag and high static stability. The fifth section will discuss the \"safing\" configuration and the aerodynamics associated with it. The sixth section contains results for an analysis of thruster plumefreestream interaction. Thrust reversal may occur for certain aerobraking altitudes. The last section investigates the dependence of drag coefficient and heat transfer coefficient on atmospheric density. Mars Global Surveyor Spacecraft The Mars Global Surveyor Spacecraft was built by Lockheed Martin Astronautics and consists of four subassemblies: the equipment module, propulsion module, solar arrays, and communication antennas. The spacecraft is shown in Figure 1 in its mapping configuration. The equipment module houses the avionics and science instruments and measures 1.22 x 1.22 x 0.76 meters. All of the instruments except the magnetometer are bolted to the nadir equipment deck on the +Z side. The propulsion module on the -Z side contains the main engine, attitude control thrusters, and propellant tanks. It consists of a rectangular shaped box 1.06 m on a side, not including the thermal blankets. There are three thrusters per corner; two aft facing, and one for roll control. Each thruster burns hydrazine in a mono-propellant, pulse mode. The two solar arrays, which will provide power for the spacecraft, measure 3.53 meters in length and 1.85 meters in width. Each array consists of an inner and outer panel which are comprised of gallium arsenide and silicon cells, respectively. The structure which supports the solar array and connects it to the equipment and propulsion modules is herein referred to as the \"yoke.\" Metal \"drag flaps\" 0.81 meters in length are mounted on the ends of both arrays. These serve to decrease the spacecraft's ballistic coefficient during aerobraking. The primary communication antenna is the 1.5 meter high gain antenna (HGA). During aerobraking, the HGA will remain body fixed to the +X side of the spacecraft and its protective cover attached. Aerobraking Maneuver and Configurations The aerobraking maneuver will progressively lower MGS from its highly elliptical capture orbit (56,600 km altitude apoapsis, 353 km altitude periapsis) to a nearly circular one (450 km altitude apoapsis, 350 km periapsis ) for mapping of the planet. This maneuver will be accomplished in three phases. The first phase, set to last for seven or eight orbits, will gradually lower the periapsis to 112 km using four propulsive impulses with the attitude control thrusters. This gradual \"walk-in\" is necessitated by the large uncertainty in the atmospheric density model and will allow time to study the atmosphere and its orbit-to-orbit variation. The second or main phase follows will last about three months. MGS will make 300-400 successive passes through the atmosphere, bringing the apoapsis down to 2000 km. The periapsis altitude will be maintained within a specified corridor to produce enough drag within time constraints yet remain high enough to avoid excessive heating and maximum dynamic pressure limits. The last phase follows for about three weeks. During this time, the apoapsis altitude will be lowered to its final value of 450 km, and periapsis gradually raised to 143 km. Aerobraking will end with a termination burn to raise the periapsis to its final altitude of 350 km. The aerodynamic forces during aerobraking are expected to account for a AV decrease of 1300 m\/s. The originally planned aerobraking configuration for MGS is shown in Figure 2 with a representative computational model. The panels are swept 30\u00b0 relative to the Y axis with the solar cell side opposite that exposed to the freestream. After launch and trajectory insertion, it was discovered that the -Y solar array had not fully deployed and snapped into place. The array, from the inner panel on out, remains about 20.5\u00b0 from full extension to the plane of the yoke. It is suspected that a shaft in the deployment damper mechanism broke shortly after launch, thereby causing the damper arm to wedge into the hinge joint between the inner panel and yoke. Concerned that the hinge would not be able to withstand the aerodynamic torques associated with the aerobraking maneuver, MGS engineers revised the aerobraking configuration; the new configuration is shown in Figure 3. American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Copyright\u00a9 1997, American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Inc. The panel assembly is rotated 180\u00b0 about the Y axis, and the yoke is now oriented 51\u00b0 from the -Y axis instead of 30\u00b0. This retains the 30\u00b0 sweep while ensuring that any deflection of the array would be into the secured position (with the wedged damper arm doubling as a mechanical \"stop\"). The solar cells are now exposed to the freestream; aerodynamic and heating issues related to this configuration are addressed in a latter section. In the event of contingencies, the MGS spacecraft can adopt a \"safing\" configuration. This configuration will cause the spacecraft to roll over until the solar arrays are aligned in the direction of the sun. This allows the navigation team to be fairly certain of the MGS attitude once it conies out of a drag pass. To obtain this configuration from the aerobraking configuration, the panel assemblies are rotated 25\u00b0 about the Y axis toward the HGA. This configuration can be seen in Figure 4. There is a revised safing configuration associated with the revised aerobraking configuration; the characteristics of this new safing configuration are currently being evaluated and are not included in this paper.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":131161305,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2325862015","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.2514\/6.1997-2509","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In biochemical studies, acid lipase and phospholipase D activities paralleled the distribution of acid phosphatase among the cell fractions, demonstrating an initial association with aleurone grains rather than with spherosomes Upon incubation with gibberellic acid (GA3), these enzymes disappeared from the aleurone grain fraction Our findings suggest that spherosomes of wheat aleurone are not lysosomal in nature but cellular repositories of lipids Aleurone grains appear to function as the main repository of hydrolytic enzymes in ungerminated caryopsis","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":84176436,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1997144998","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1086\/336908","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Rabies kills about 59,000 people a year, according to the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), mainly in Asian and African countries with large populations of stray dogs. \"There is no reason for anyone to die of rabies in today's world, and rabies endemic countries have made its elimination a priority,\" Louis Nel, chief executive of the Global Alliance for Rabies Control, a US-based charity, said in a statement. Rabies is mainly caused by bites from dogs contaminated with the virus and occurs in more than 150 countries, a spokesperson for FAO said. It is easily prevented with a vaccine, but many people do not realize they have been infected. Once symptoms begin to show, rabies is usually fatal. It is a neglected disease that largely affects the poor and rural communities, with livestock worth about $500 million dying from rabies each year, a spokesperson for FAO said.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":264608680,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1093\/cid\/cix891","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/cid\/article-pdf\/65\/12\/i\/21968152\/cix891.pdf","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"In what way is the world of work changing? Are we riding the Third Wave of the information age as described by Alvin and Heidi Toffler and Newt Gingrich? Is there a shift, as described by the Swedish consultant Bo Ekman, from an industrial paradigm focused on manufacturing to a neo-industrial learning paradigm? And if there is a new wave or paradigm, if the logic of production is changing, what does it mean to people working in technology organizations and to their leaders? According to statistics from the U.S. Department of Commerce, the shift in work appears to be from manufacturing to service. The OECD finds the same pattern for Western Europe. But these categories are misleading, especially for companies creating technology. Much service work uses and develops products, and much manufacturing customizes products by adding value through engineering. Products are designed cooperatively with customers, using new information-age tools. As James F. Moore shows in his recent book, The Death of Competition (New York, Harper Business, 1996), some of the most successful technology-creating companies, like Intel and Microsoft, have developed mutually beneficial partnering relationships. According to Moore's ecological metaphor, their \"co-evolution\" is gained at the expense of companies which can no longer adapt to their new \"business ecosystem.\" Toward a New Logic The logic of manufacturing in the 20th century developed from the Scientific Management of E W Taylor to the Total Quality Management of W Edwards Deming. It influenced family life, schooling and the values that shape the social character. The transformation to a new paradigm or logic announced by strategic thinkers is, I believe, gathering momentum. It involves an explosion in the use of information and telecommunications, but I believe that it is more than this. The new logic-call it the logic of learning--changes the way managers need to think not only about product strategy, but also about the human side: skills, empowerment, motivation, relationships, and leadership. According to manufacturing logic, if the price is right, world-class products are all it takes to succeed. But as products become commodities, profits require continuous innovation and partnering with suppliers, customers and distributors. Partnering demands learning about and with others. It requires relationships of trust based on shared values and mutual understanding. According to manufacturing logic, quality means simply meeting the customer's specs. Continuous improvement will eliminate any defects. Manufacturers aim for perfection, or the closest thing to it, six sigmas from the mean. However, this approach to quality runs the risk of doing the wrong thing right. As Russell Ackoff argues, it may be better to do the right thing wrong, because you can learn and improve with experience. This has been the strategy of Bill Gates at Microsoft and Andy Grove at Intel. There is no single definition of quality that fits learning logic. Quality may mean helping business customers succeed, which requires understanding their business and, in many cases, the needs of their customers. Or it may mean delighting private customers with offerings they never imagined. Rather than continuous improvement, quality relationships stimulate continuous innovation of products, services and processes. According to learning logic, research and development must partner with the frontline and customers. Penny as Prototype An AT&T service technician I shall call Penny is the prototypical frontline employee for the age of learning. Penny controls a multimillion-dollar business customer account. The customer likes dealing with her and has rejected the services of AT&T managers and account officers. Penny is invited to customer conferences and workshops.

+{"text":"Sir We disagree with the opinion of Turner and Murk (Br J Surg 1989; 76: 1247-50), that intravenous digital subtraction angiography (IVDSA) should not be used to assess the carotid arteries in stroke patients because of unsatisfactory safety and accuracy. On the question of safety, two of the most unfavourable publications were cited in which three neurological complications were reported in 602 examinations. Each happened some time after the completion of the study unlike those in intra-arterial angiography which usually happen during the procedure, characteristically immediately after an injection of contrast material, or saline. Your readers are urged to study the report of a multi-centre prospective study in which not one neurological complication occurred in several thousand IVDSA examinations and evanescent chest pain, which occurred in 0.2 per cent, was the only potentially serious systemic event recorded (Stevens et al.'). Why some workers have registered many more serious events is conjectural. The total dose of iodine given in an average IVDSA is lower than the dose recommended by some workers to enhance a routine computed tomographic brain scan. Perhaps the use of ionic rather than non-ionic contrast material was important, although far larger comparative trials have found only small differences in the low incidences of only minor complications recorded using either media (Sackett et a1.2, Seyferth et ~ 1 . ~ ) . On the question of accuracy, it is time it was accepted that precise grading of a carotid stenosis is not of clinical value. The few studies which consider age matched controls indicate that only severe stenosis correlates with ipsilateral cerebral hemisphere events and pathological evidence of brain damage, and then only weakly, and that all grades of stenosis less than this do not (Brown et u I . ~ , Schwartz and Mitchell5). Furthermore, even the best quality cut film angiography is unreliable at identifying ulcerated atheroma and adherent thrombus, and also may underestimate a stenosis (Kricheff6), yet so often this is taken as the standard against which other techniques are compared. Image quality in the average IVDSA is inferior to intra-arterial techniques but this does not mean the method is not clinically useful, and the 5-10 per cent of examinations which are non-diagnostic are usually easily recognizable as such by all who view them. We agree with Turner and Murk that the frequency ofcomplications with intra-arterial techniques is unacceptably high for screening. Carotid sonography may be satisfactory in specialized units, but usually shows only a small part of the vascular tree and can be. unreliable in less committed hands. Importantly the reliability of each result cannot be evaluated readily by the referring clinician. Misconceptions abound about the importance of proximal atheroma as a cause of cerebral symptoms and a realistic attitude towards our diagnostic aims is urgently required. We wish to identify not simply atheroma, which is common, but clinically relevant atheroma which is much less common. We believe IVDSA to be a serviceable screening test for the following reasons: (1) It has an acceptably low morbidity; (2) It shows the entire vascular tree from aortic arch to Circle of Willis, and beyond; (3) It is less likely on the whole to produce an unrecognizably spurious result than carotid sonography; (4) Its sensitivity is such that it detects mainly severe atheroma which is more likely to be relevant; and (5) It can be the definitive contrast investigation in around 90 per cent of patients, including those having carotid endarterectomies (Stevens et a \/ .

We are saying throw out only the muddy water and keep this particular baby at least until something better comes along.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":31005930,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2130993925","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1002\/BJS.1800770743","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Most of the state-of-the-art methods rely on RGB frames for extracting the semantics and pre-computed optical flow fields as a motion cue. Then, both are combined using deep neural networks. Yet, it has been argued that such models are not able to leverage the motion information extracted from the optical flow, but instead the optical flow allows for better recognition of people and objects in the video. This urges the need to explore different cues or models that can extract motion in a more informative fashion. To tackle this issue, we propose to explore the predictive coding network, so called PredNet, a recurrent neural network that propagates predictive coding errors across layers and time steps. We analyze whether PredNet can better capture motions in videos by estimating over time the representations extracted from pre-trained networks for action recognition. In this way, the model only relies on the video frames, and does not need pre-processed optical flows as input.

+{"text":"\u2501\u2501 Background. Transformation to small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) has been reported as one of the resistance mechanisms of EGFR-TKI-positive adenocarcinomas, and the transformed tumor has been reported to respond to chemotherapy for SCLC. EGFR gene mutations and ALK fusion gene mutations are considered to be exclusive, and co-positive cases are extremely rare. We herein report a case in which an adenocarcinoma that was co-positive for EGFR gene mutations and ALK fusion gene mutations transformed to SCLC after chemotherapy. Case. Follow-up computed tomography after treatment for Castleman's disease at a previous hospital in a 64-year-old man revealed a nodular shadow and right pleural effusion in the upper right lobe, which was staged as pT4N0M1a (pleural metastasis) stage IV adenocarcinoma. Surgery was performed, and the surgical specimen was positive for EGFR gene mutations and ALK fusion gene mutations. The administration of erlotinib was therefore started. Subsequently, since the tumor became resistant to treatment and was EGFR-T790M-positive, osimertinib was administered. The tumor responded to treatment but then recurred. Many chemotherapy agents were at-tempted, and he was eventually referred to our hospital for further treatment. A third bronchial lung biopsy was performed, which revealed EGFR gene mutations and ALK fusion gene mutation positivity, as well as SCLC transformation. Amrubicin was administered as the treatment for SCLC and was effective. Conclusion. Our expe-rience suggests that EGFR gene mutation and ALK fusion gene mutation co-positive cases can transform to SCLC after chemotherapy. Co-positive cases themselves are rare, and no instances of co-positive cases that transformed to SCLC after treatment have been previously reported. We therefore reported a rare case of such a transformation.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":239702265,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3197904017","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.2482\/haigan.61.342","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.2482\/haigan.61.342","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Abstract The competitive inclusion method was used to determine the stability constants (log K a ) for complexation of natural \u03b1-cyclodextrin ( 1 ) with aliphatic amino acids in acidic solution. The stability constants (log K a ) for the complexation of modified \u03b1-cyclodextrin, mono- [6-(1-pyridinio)-6-deoxy]-\u03b1-cyclodextrin ( 2 ), with these biological molecules were measured using the differential spectra method. Both natural \u03b1-cyclodextrin ( 1 ) and chemically modified \u03b1-cyclodextrin ( 2 ) can recognize not only the size of guest amino acid molecules and the length of their hydrophobic side chains, but also the chirality of enantiotopic L \/ D -amino acids. The longer the hydrophobic side chain borne on an amino acid, the more stable the complex formed by \u03b1-cyclodextrin hosts ( 1 ) and ( 2 ). Host compounds ( 1 ) and ( 2 ) preferably include L -amino acids, which would benefit from discrimination of L \/ D -amino acids. Introduction of a positively charged 1-pyridinio moiety to C-6 of \u03b1-cyclodextrin apparently enlarges the inclusion ability and enantioselectivity by electrostatic interaction. Comparing the data obtained in acidic medium with those formerly measured in pH 7.20 phosphate buffer solution, a result can be given: when the pH of the medium increases, the complexation ability and selectivity of modified \u03b1-cyclodextrin ( 2 ) for most amino acids examined here are slightly enhanced, showing the highest enantioselectivity up to 10.3 for L \/ D -serine.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":84231970,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2018038626","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1006\/BIOO.1997.1062","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Results\u2014 Approximately 2% of the adult Survey of Families, Income, and Employment population reported they had been told by a doctor that they had a stroke. Only 1% had evidence of hospitalization for stroke since 1990. The sensitivity of self-reported stroke was 73% and specificity was 98%. However, the positive predictive value, people who reported having a stroke with confirmation of hospitalization for stroke, was low at 29%.

+{"text":"For low-and medium-energy SPECT imaging without collimator exchange, a wide-aperture parallel-hole collimator\u2014called a 'nine-pixel matched collimator (9-PMC)'\u2014was developed. The hole size of the 9-PMC is matched to nine detector pixels, giving nine (3 \u00d7 3) pixels per collimator hole. The 9-PMC was designed to reduce the penetration of medium-energy gamma rays. The performance of the 9-PMC for 99mTc and 111In gamma-ray energy was experimentally evaluated and compared with that of a low-energy collimator. A CdTe detector with 1.4 mm pitch was used in conjunction with the 9-PMC. A four-pixel matched collimator ('4-PMC' hereafter) with hole size matched to four detector pixels was also used as a high-sensitivity low-energy collimator. Hole pitch, hole length and septum thickness of the 4-PMC\/9-PMC were 2.8\/4.2 mm, 26.0\/33.4 mm and 0.4\/1.0 mm, respectively. The system sensitivities of the 4-PMC and 9-PMC for 99mTc gamma rays were 221 cps MBq\u22121 and 211 cps MBq\u22121, respectively. For the 4-PMC, system sensitivities for 171 and 245 keV 111In gamma rays were 232 cps MBq\u22121 and 503 cps MBq\u22121, respectively, while for the 9-PMC, the system sensitivities for 171 and 245 keV 111In gamma rays were 145 cps MBq\u22121 and 106 cps MBq\u22121, respectively. Spatial resolution of the collimator was analyzed by using modulation transfer functions (MTFs) obtained from the line-source profiles. The results of this analysis demonstrate that the 9-PMC for 99mTc had frequency ranges for similar (or higher) and lower MTF values compared with those for the 4-PMC, while the 9-PMC for 111In had higher MTF values than those for the 4-PMC at a wide frequency range. Hot-sphere phantom images showed that the image contrast of the 9-PMC for 99mTc gamma rays is comparable to that of the 4-PMC, while that of the 9-PMC for 111In gamma rays is higher than that of the 4-PMC. The developed SPECT with the 9-PMC and CdTe detector provided higher image quality for 111In gamma rays, or comparable image quality for 99mTc gamma rays, compared with that of a low-energy collimator.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":124926915,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2286172511","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1088\/2057-1976\/2\/1\/015016","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Built-in torque sensing in Harmonic Drives enables torque sensing without assembling additional torque sensors into mechanisms where Harmonic Drives are already present. The sensing principle has been known for about ten years, but it is not widely utilized yet, mainly because of a relatively high ripple signal in the sensing output, generated by the gear operation. Ripple is difficult to be compensated due to inaccuracies of the strain gages positioning and in geometrical properties of the gear and its assembly. Increased number of applied strain gages reduces the ripple, but does not eliminate it. In this paper, the authors present a new method to effectively compensate the ripple, it is based on a periodic characteristic of the ripple signal itself and proposes use of separate amplifiers for each of the signals from the strain gages. Gains of the amplifiers are tuned so that the ripple signal is compensated. A mathematical model of the ripple signal, and a method to calculate the tuned gains is studied. Minimum number of strain gages needed to compensate the ripple signal is derived. The method is successfully confirmed by experiments.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":111025981,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2147630253","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/ISIE.1999.798731","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Introduction: Closed reduction and internal fixation with K wires is the standard of care for Gartland type III supracondylar fractures of children since they are too unstable for nonoperative treatment. Occasionally closed reduction of these fractures could be difficult using standard technique warranting open reduction which is associated with additional complications. We report a new intrafocal reduction technique and its results which can be used to reduce difficult supracondylar fractures reliably thus avoiding open reduction and its complications in most instances. Materials and Methods: Consecutive series of twenty-one patients who were treated successfully using intrafocal reduction (Tansen) technique from January 2014 to December 2015 were followed up for minimum of 6 months. Duration of operation, any intraoperative technique-related complication, and number of intraoperative image intensifier images were reviewed. Children were followed up at 3 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months for the adequacy of reduction, for loss of reduction of fixation and fracture healing as well as a range of motion, complications, and functional outcome using Flynn's criteria. Results: The average operation time was 30.5 \u00b1 10.5 min. The average number of intraoperative images was 15 \u00b1 5. The average time and number of intraoperative images were not affected by the experience of the surgeon. Average healing was 6.1 \u00b1 2 weeks. All patients achieved a satisfactory cosmetic and functional result. There was no significant loss of initial reduction on follow up. The minor complication rate was 16%. There was no technique-specific complication. Conclusion: Our simple intrafocal technique using artery forceps \u2013 \"Tansen Technique\" \u2013 gives an acceptable reduction in difficult supracondylar fractures which would otherwise require open reduction. It is cost-effective, consistent, has a short learning curve, and is a safe technique with potential use in day-to-day practice.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":220128733,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3036691676","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.4103\/cjhr.cjhr_85_19","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYNCSA","url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4103\/cjhr.cjhr_85_19","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Neptunium behavior is important to understand for transuranic recycling because of its complex oxidation chemistry. The Pacific Northwest National Laboratory is investigating neptunium oxidation chemistry in the context of the PUREX process. Neptunium extraction in the PUREX process relies on maintaining either IV or V oxidation states. Qualitative conversion of neptunium(V) to neptunium(VI) was achieved within 5 hours in 6 M nitric acid at 95 deg. C. However, the VI state was not maintained during a batch contact test simulating the PUREX process and neptunium reduced to the V state, rendering it inextractable. Vanadium(V) was found to be effective in maintaining neptunium(VI) by adding it to a simulated irradiated nuclear fuel feed in 6 M nitric acid and to the scrub acid in the batch contact simulation of the PUREX process.

These goals guided decision-making, influencing which strategies were employed, and ultimately how many points were harvested from the pool on each trial. Five action strategies that participants used to pursue their goals were identified: developing initial harvest plans, monitoring pool size and others' harvests, developing expectancies about others, simulating possible outcomes, and strategic influence.

We formulate this fundamental problem as a market model by introducing a roaming rate as the incentive for each SP to gain extra revenue when its LUs temporarily leverage other SPs' service.

Two iterative algorithms are proposed to reach the equilibrium for decentralized implementations and their stable conditions are analyzed.

I illuminate the sources of persistent, unavoidable environmental confounding in PGSs as well as the unknown biology. I argue that leaving ethical concerns aside, the potential scientific rewards of adding PGSs to social science are greatly overstated and the scientific costs outweigh these meager benefits for most social science applications. Long Abstract The sociogenomics revolution is upon us, we are told. Whether revolutionary or not, sociogenomics is poised to flourish given the ease of incorporating polygenic scores (or PGSs) as 'genetic propensities' for complex traits into social science research. Pointing to evidence of ubiquitous heritability and the accessibility of genetic data, scholars have argued that social scientists not only have an opportunity but a duty to add PGSs to social science research. Social science research that ignores genetics is, some proponents argue, at best partial and likely scientifically flawed, misleading, and wasteful. Here, I challenge arguments about the value of genetics for social science and with it the claimed necessity of incorporating PGSs into social science models as measures of genetic influences. In so doing, I discuss the impracticability of distinguishing genetic influences from environmental influences due to non-causal gene-environment correlations, especially population stratification, familial confounding, and downward causation. I explain how environmental effects masquerade as genetic influences in PGSs, which undermines their raison d'\u00eatre as measures of genetic propensity, especially for complex socially contingent behaviors that are the subject of sociogenomics. Additionally, I draw attention to the partial, unknown biology, while highlighting the persistence of an implicit, unavoidable reductionist genes versus environments approach. I argue that leaving sociopolitical and ethical concerns aside, the potential scientific rewards of adding PGSs to social science are few and greatly overstated and the scientific costs, which include obscuring structural disadvantages and cultural influences, outweigh these meager benefits for most social science applications.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":264877530,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Binary chriped gratings have been empirically found to demonstrate the focusing properties of a lens by many researchers but without rigorous theoretical analysis. This paper presents a theoretical analysis of plane wave diffractions by an arbitrarily chirped binary grating. The solution techniques include successive conformal mappings (SCM) and the vector coupled wave theory. The grating, being perfectly conducting, is uniform in one direction but the grating period varies slowly in the other (the grating vector) direction. Under these assumptions, the orthogonal decomposition of any electromagnetic fields in terms of the fast and the slow polarization is valid. Furthermore, the nonperiodic electromagnetic boundary conditions which have been introduced by the chirped grating profile are mapped into periodic ones with three conformal mappings: (1) the Schwarz-Christoffel transformation, (2) the linear fractional transformation, and (3) the natural logarithmic transformation.

+{"text":"\u00a9 2015 IOP Publishing Ltd Printed in the UK Nowadays, physics is facing several key problems, such as having the ability to produce small quantities of anti-matter in physics laboratories despite not having a proven explanation why in this Universe it seems to be virtually absent. We have discovered neutrinos, but we have not yet understood if they are possibly their own antiparticles. At CERN, perhaps we are approaching an understanding of how mass is generated for all the elementary particles, but a more in-depth and wider comprehension is still needed. The Universe is expanding, and the expansion is accelerating; what generates all this if normally gravity is attractive? The speed of stars with respect to the centres of galaxies increases according to their radius more than would be expected given the effect of gravity generated by the mass of the innermost objects: why? The answers to these and to other important questions can come not only from highenergy, but also from high-precision and well-conceivable experiments. As a matter of fact, in a very intuitive and effective way, the trends of the technological efforts in particle accelerators can be synthesised according to the view of Lucio Rossi from CERN (figure 1). However, even if in the high-precision frontier the importance of metrology seems to be prominent, the other approach of high-energy metrology also plays a determining role. In such a context, the definition of measurement techniques, metrological chains and instruments of unprecedented precision plays a crucial role. This is an activity that has always been a harbinger of great progress for humanity: it is not just new knowledge about the world that leads to positive changes in society that were otherwise unimaginable before, but even more striking is the fact that in an attempt to attain new research objectives, new technologies are adapted, developed or invented. These innovative technologies, when properly used, are able to improve the lives of all individuals. For these reasons, any fruitful research should always recruit all the players who take part in the work equally. A first effort in this direction of integrating the viewpoints of the main players of this scenario was made at the IMEKO TC-4 2014 Conference in Benevento (Italy) (figure 2, left) by the Special Track 'Theoretical and experimental physics meet metrology engineering at the particle accelerators frontiers for new knowledge' (Metrology for Particle Accelerators Workshop: METROPAW 2014, figure 2, right). Within this framework, theoretical and experimental physicists met engineering metrologists with the specific aim of focusing the main contribution that metrology is called to make to particle accelerator physics and engineering. The Special Track expresses clearly in the title the intentions of looking at a mutually-beneficial exchange of knowledge and experience among the instrumentation and measurement engineers and the physicists working in highly challenging scientific environments. A special contribution was made both by CERN and INFN in this direction. In short, in many areas there is a clear feeling that the long-awaited answers can be found experimentally, but current technological limits require huge efforts to design and implement more and more refined experiments.

Rising costs, intense competition, rapidly evolving technology, increasingly demanding and privileged consumers, and the demands of a socially changing society. In this respect, the effectiveness and efficiency of the operation of the business organization are realized. This article addresses the following fundamental scientific questions at a theoretical level: How important is Business Process Management (BPM) concerning Quality Management (QM)? Is BPM the QM axis? The relationship between business process management and quality management needs to be studied more interdisciplinary. This study aims to build this relationship. The research methods used are literature review and critical analysis of scientific sources. Academic papers and other sources published within two years (2021\u20132022) were analyzed to look for research findings on the relationship between BPM and QM. The results show confusion and overlap between different QM and BPM paradigms. The BPM paradigm can be considered an integral part of almost every primary quality management paradigm. BPM is like a horizontal domain that encompasses different quality management paradigms. The conclusions drawn are helpful for organizations implementing quality systems. Integrating BPM into quality management systems and tools creates the conditions for an organization to develop effectively and efficiently. A limitation of this study is the paucity of quantitative studies on scholarly sources. In the future, it may be helpful to conduct systematic literature reviews that include quantitative analyzes of scientific studies.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":260994655,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.34306\/ajri.v5i1sp.912","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"In July 2011, Southern Sudan will become Africa's 54th independent state. Since independence in 1956, Sudanese people have been subjected to two civil wars spanning 40 years. Factors, such as clashing identities and political marginalisation that contributed to these civil wars, illustrate the complex layering of political and socio-economic dynamics that created conditions of instability. Within the historical and contemporary contexts, the politics of resources, resistance and peripheries in Sudan are analysed in order to identify the conflict drivers that shaped the political\u2013economic and social environments of Sudan. State formation and the apparent inability of the state to include disgruntled peripheries in decision-making processes are the root cause of countless political crises. Sudan's history of peripheral struggles for access to local-level subsistence resources and the two north\u2013south civil wars are examples of multiple interlocking conflicts that shaped the country's politics in the 20th century. Marginalisation and the economic neglect of peripheral regions formed the bedrock of Sudan's internal conflicts. Both Northern and Southern Sudan will have to contend with these challenges after the south's independence. A b o u t t h e A u t h o r Petrus de Kock is currently a senior researcher in the Governance of Africa's Resources Programme at the South African Institute of International Affairs. His research focuses on the intersection of political dynamics, economic trends, social change and conflict within the sphere of resource extraction (mining, oil and gas). His work aims to develop holistic analyses of market trends, political dynamics and the social impact of resource extraction. He often engages with the impact of issues of conflict, political change and political risk dynamics on societies and economies. He is a regular contributor to media debates on contemporary trends in African and Middle Eastern politics, and maintains an active interest in the geopolitics of change in the contemporary world's political\u2013economic system. Petrus holds a Phd in Philosophy, with a focus on political philosophy and revolutionary change, from the University of Limpopo. He also holds a Master's degree in Political Science (Cum Laude) from the University of Pretoria.

In January 2011, Southern Sudanese people voted overwhelmingly in favour of secession from Northern Sudan, which means that in July 2011 an independent Southern Sudan will become Africa's 54 state. The referendum was a central component of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA), signed in 2005, which brought Sudan's second civil war to an end. The vote for Southern secession is the culmination of a painful and decades-long history of internal conflict, which can be traced back to problems inherent to the state. Southern Sudan's independence heralds a new era for both Sudan and the African continent. As Northern and Southern Sudan part ways, the future prospects of the two states will be determined by their ability to manage cross-border and internal conflicts. To manage conflict and ensure stability, the two new political entities will have to engage in processes of constitutional development, redefining each state's political economic base, establishing new institutions and consequently state formation. Both Northern and Southern Sudan need to secure people's livelihoods through meaningful economic activity, especially when viewed against the background of popular revolts in Northern Africa and the Middle East. Sudan's history of conflict is linked to political\u2013economic marginalisation, which results in struggles at local level for access to subsistence resources in a harsh environment of deserts and equatorial swamplands. To better understand the unique social, political and economic challenges that confront a post-independence Southern and Northern Sudan, it may be necessary to take a lesson from Sudan's history. The Mahdist revolt, which brought an end to colonial control of Sudanese territory in 1885, highlights the complex relations between Sudan's central state and its sometimes ungovernable hinterlands. On 26 January 1885, General Charles George 'Chinese' Gordon was killed on the banks of the lazy Blue Nile during the evacuation of Khartoum, as the local Sudanese forces led by Mahdi Muhammad Ahmad fought the Turco-Egyptian rulers of Sudan. Gordon's death sent shockwaves through the world and showed that the Mahdist revolt was a major military and political uprising. The Mahdist revolt is considered the first uprising of a Sudanese periphery against a central government located in Khartoum. Thirteen years of Sudanese rule followed, until Major (later Lord) Kitchener (who became known for his 'scorched earth' policy during the Anglo Boer War) was dispatched in 1898 to reoccupy the country. Sharif Harir contends that the Mahdist revolt against colonial overlords in Sudan had a lasting impact on Sudanese state formation: The significance of the Mahdi for the formative stages of the Sudanese state lies, perhaps, not in his call for an Islamic state but rather in the ability of the charismatic leader to exploit the conditions of discontent precipitated by the colonial Turko-Egyptian rule and [to] unify the peripheral Sudanese to conquer the seat of central power in Khartoum. The Mahdist revolt illustrates how discontented peripheries are fertile grounds on which to sow the seeds of revolt against the political centre in Khartoum. It was to become a pattern of political behaviour in the country that was repeated with dreadful humanitarian, economic, and political cost throughout the 20 century. G o v e R n A n c e o f A f R i c A ' s R e s o u R c e s P R o G R A m m e 6 s A i i A o c c A s i o n A L P A P e R n u m B e R 8 6 The future of Northern and Southern Sudan depends on redefining (and ultimately restructuring) how the state manages conflict that stems from contested claims for control over, and access to, resources. The singular focus on oil, as a shared natural resource and the cause for conflict during the second civil war, obscures another harsh political reality in Sudan, which is the struggle for access to subsistence resources at local level. The patterns of resource and centre\u2013periphery struggles have defined Sudan's political landscape since independence. Based on historical experience, local-level resource conflicts (for land, water and grazing), or the general political\u2013economic marginalisation of groups and peripheral regions, are likely to continue to affect both Northern and Southern Sudan after the break-up of the territory. For example, since Southern Sudan's referendum for self determination, small-scale conflicts have erupted inside the country, which indicates that the new state will have to contend with internal grievances and individuals or groups that feel marginalised in the evolving political\u2013economic dispensation. The stand-off between the north and south, with oil politics taking centre stage, is often presented as Sudan's 'national question'. However, Sudan's national question consists of several interlocking conflicts that all involve struggles for rights, economic opportunity and attempts by Sudan's peripheries to gain power and influence in the state. Low politics of resources, such as access to land, nomadic cattle herding, and internal displacement, have contributed to human insecurity in Sudan. Such local-level concerns are often neglected or not taken into consideration because political agendas inside the country are dominated by the high politics of oil and national unity. Yet, local-level resource grievances are a crucial determining factor for relations between Sudan's peripheries and the new state apparatuses, which will be developed in Northern and Southern Sudan after July 2011. S u d A n ' S m u l t I l Ay e r e d ' n A t I o n A l q u e S t I o n ' Since independence, the central state in Sudan has been involved in several armed struggles with political forces within its territory. The most prominent of these conflicts are the two civil wars between the north and south of the country. However, other examples of internal armed struggle, such as the Eastern Front insurgency that occurred concurrently with the Sudan People's Liberation Movement (SPLM) war in the south during the second civil war (1983\u20132005) and the Darfur rebellion in 2003, show that Sudan's national question encompasses historical and contemporary conflicts between the central state and marginalised peripheries. Economic marginalisation and Northern domination appear to be the main grievances that armed rebels or opposition groups hold against the central state and the reigning political order in Sudan.

Within the education service this often gives rise to speculation concerning the appropriateness, or otherwise, of the education and experience of those holding significant posts in management, leadership and evaluation. This article presents data on Chief and Deputy Education Officers (CEOs, DEOs) and is part of an on-going and extensive survey project into the relationship between education and occupation being carried out in the University of Leeds.* Education officers have received very little attention from researchers and any data on their education is particularly rare. The one published exception, Rendel (1968), surveyed all graduates in local educational administration in April 1965. Since many of the CEO\/DEOs in the present survey were employed in these capacities at that date, Rendel's data may be assumed to provide the basis for a view of the promotion stakes, by comparison of the intake with post-holders. However, it is not possible to make direct comparisons over time, since Rendel excluded CEOs from, and did not identify DEOs as a group in, her work. More recently I Bush and Kogan ( 1982) conducted interviews with seven, and a postal survey of all, English and Welsh CEOs. Since their study focused on the perceptions of the changing political context of the work of the CEO and few face data were collected or presented, there is little basis for any comparison with the present survey.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":80266428,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2739864153","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1177\/003452378603600102","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

With the generalized use of highly sensitive thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and free thyroid hormone assays, most thyroid function tests (TFTs) are straightforward to interpret and confirm the clinical impressions of thyroid diseases. However, in some patients, TFT results can be perplexing because the clinical picture is not compatible with the tests or because TSH and free T4 are discordant with each other. Optimizing the interpretation of TFTs requires a complete knowledge of thyroid hormone homeostasis, an understanding of the range of tests available to the clinician, and the ability to interpret biochemical abnormalities in the context of the patient's clinical thyroid status. The common etiologic factors causing puzzling TFT results include intercurrent illness (sick euthyroid syndrome), drugs, alteration in normal physiology (pregnancy), hypothalamic-pituitary diseases, rare genetic disorders, and assay interference. Sick euthyroid syndrome is the most common cause of TFT abnormalities encountered in the hospital. In hypothalamicpituitary diseases, TSH levels are unreliable. Therefore, it is not uncommon to see marginally high TSH levels in central hypothyroidism. Drugs may be the culprit of TFT abnormalities through various mechanisms. Patients with inappropriate TSH levels need a differential diagnosis between TSH-secreting pituitary adenoma and resistance to thyroid hormone. Sellar magnetic resonance imaging, serum \u03b1-subunit levels, serum sex hormone-binding globulin levels, a thyrotropinreleasing hormone stimulation test, trial of somatostatin analogues, and TR-\u03b2 sequencing are helpful for the diagnosis, but it may be challenging. TFTs should be interpreted based on the clinical context of the patient, not just the numbers and reference ranges of the tests, to avoid various pitfalls of TFTs and unnecessary costly evaluations and therapies.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":217214061,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2801968942","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.5124\/JKMA.2018.61.4.241","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

However, there is no detailed report on the clinicopathological features of NA of the renal pelvis. Patient concerns: This case report describes a 46-year-old male patient who was admitted to the hospital for one month because of painless gross hematuria with blood clots. He had a history of hyperuricemia and a family history of gastric cancer. Diagnoses: NA of the renal pelvis was diagnosed pathologically and immunohistochemical. Interventions: The patient underwent laparoscopic nephroureterectomy. Outcomes: The patient recovered well after the operation with no discomfort. In addition, we followed up with the patient regularly post-discharge (approximately 20\u200amonths).

+{"text":"Introduction: Urinary tract infection is among most occurring bacterial infections. Escherichia coli is the most prevalent etiologic agent of urinary tract infections isolating from 80% of cases. Aminoglycosides are potent bactericidal agents inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the 30S ribosomal subunit. E. coli have acquired multiple resistances to a wide range of antibiotics such as aminoglycosides. Enzymatic alteration of aminoglycosides by aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes is the main mechanism of resistance to these antibiotics in E. coli. The aim of this study was detection of genes encoding aminoglycoside modifying enzymes (aac(3)-IIa\u060c ant(2\u2032\u2032)-Ia and aph(3\u2032)-Ia) in uropathogenic Escherichia coli isolated from urine by PCR.\n\nMaterials and Methods: Two hundred seventy six urinary isolates were collected from Tehran Heart center. Isolates were characterized through standard microbiological tests. Antibiotic susceptibility patterns of confirmed isolates were determined by disk diffusion method for gentamicin, amikacin, tobramycin, kanamycin and netilmicin according on CLSI guidelines. MICs of target antibiotics were determined by agar dilution method. All isolates were screened for the presence of the AMEs genes using the PCR method.\nResults: The results of disk diffusion for Gentamicin, Tobramycin, Kanamicin, Amikacin and Netilmicin were 21.01%, 24.63%, 23.18%, 3.62% and 6.15%, respectively.\nThe agar dilution's results (MICs) were 66.19% for Gentamicin.

+{"text":"SUMMARY \n \nBreeding and kleptoparasitism of Arctic Skuas was studied at Vik, Iceland, in 1973. Hatching success was 88.9%; fledging success was 0.27 fledglings per pair. The heavy chick mortality occurred mostly in the first week after hatching. In the early part of the breeding season skuas fed by robbing kittiwakes of their food at sea and by eating arthropods at the breeding grounds. At the time of hatching of skua eggs, which coincided with the hatching of Puffin eggs, skuas switched their feeding activities to kleptoparasitism of Puffins and fish so obtained was the principal item of most skuas' diet thereafter. In the first week post-hatching, the energy balance of an average adult skua pirating Puffins was estimated to be negative, but changed to positive a week later, although later, coinciding with an influx of non-breeders it turned back to negative. Arctic Terns which normally breed at Vik, and are exploited by skuas, failed to breed in 1973, and the abnormally heavy chick loss is therefore attributed to this failure of the terns. \n \n \n \nThe success of the skuas kleptoparasitizing Puffins depends on the proximity of the interactions to the cliff or to the ocean, where Puffins seck refuge. Skuas catch fish mostly in the air, especially if it is dropped from high. Fish dropped from low is mostly taken by competing gulls and Ravens, which mostly control the ground and lower airspace. Skuas chasing in groups enhance their success, but the average success per member decreased with group increase. However, the success of the group-member in the 'best' position was equal to that of a single skua. Puffins carry 1 (large)-6 (smaller) fish, an approximately equal load irrespective of number of fish. Skuas preferentially chase Puffins carrying 'large' fish, thus maximizing their yield per effort. Arctic Skuas responded to changes in the numbers of arriving Puffins with a functional response, but their monitoring of the food supply was far from perfect.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":83891711,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1985760965","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1111\/J.1474-919X.1978.TB04997.X","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"In recent years, NASA has invested in key activities in the areas of flight controls, handling qualities and operations of rotorcraft for civilian applications. More specifically, the flight dynamics and control discipline has focused on analyzing the unique flight control and handling qualities challenges of large rotary wing vehicles anticipated for future passenger service, and examining the effect of control system augmentation on handling qualities for current civilian helicopters in order to improve safety and reduce accident rates. This paper highlights two recent research efforts in these areas. The first is an examination of flight control and handling qualities aspects of large rotorcraft. A series of experiments were performed in the large-motion Vertical Motion Simulator at NASA Ames Research Center to quantify the effects of vehicle size on flight control requirements and piloted handling qualities. These experiments used a large tilt-rotor concept (~100 passengers) to also investigate the control augmentation required to obtain Level 1 handling qualities for a vehicle of this size. The second is an examination of the effect of control system augmentation on handling qualities for current civil rotorcraft, like those currently used for Emergency Medical Service type operations. Many current civilian helicopters have rate response type control systems and little or no control system augmentation, although current technologies allow helicopters to be fitted with stability augmentation systems, either as standard equipment or aftermarket options. A simulation experiment was conducted in the Vertical Motion Simulator to quantify the effects of advanced control modes available with a partial authority stability augmentation system on task performance and handling qualities in both good and degraded visual conditions. In addition to providing an overview of the rotary wing flight dynamics and controls research at NASA, this paper will provide an overview of these two research activities along with key results and conclusions.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":197864921,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2965157741","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The Eringen's fully nonlocal elasticity model is known to lead to ill\u2010posed boundary\u2010value problems and to suffer some boundary effects arising from particle interactions impeded by the body's boundary surface. An enhanced model is derived from the original fully nonlocal one by the addition of a regularizing non\u2010homogeneous local phase which accounts for boundary effects and which leads to a Fredholm integral equation of the second kind, hence to well\u2010posed boundary\u2010value problems, without paradoxes, nor other drawbacks. The enhanced integral model applied to a beam in bending proves to be equivalent to a sixth order differential equation with variable coefficients, with extra nonlocality boundary conditions here also derived. Both the integral approach and the differential one lead to a same unique solution of the small\u2010scale beam problem. An efficient numerical algorithm is presented in which the sixth order differential equation with variable coefficients is reduced to one of the second order, which is addressed by a finite difference method. The proposed theory is applied to a set of engineering beam problems, for each of which the inherent size effects are reported and graphically illustrated. The influence of the length scale parameter upon the beam's response is highlighted by means of a function \u03b4(\u03bb) representing the normalized maximum deflection of the beam as a function of the length scale parameter. It is shown that the enhanced model always predicts softening size effects no matter the boundary and loading conditions, and that the related response function \u03b4(\u03bb) generally exhibits a waved pattern with positive slopes first, then negative, as the length scale parameter increases, with a limit asymptotic behavior like an atomic lattice model.

An intermediate representation which incorporates signal typing and component attributes simplifies compilation and facilitates design optimization. The compilation process consists of two phases. First, a design composed of generic components is synthesized from the input description. Second, this design is translated into components from a particular library by a mapper and optimized by a logic optimizer.

Standard cardiorespiratory parameters were measured and an esophageal electrode balloon catheter was used to assess electromyography of the diaphragm (EMGdi) and the work of breathing (Wb). Leg blood flow index (BFI) was determined on four muscles using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) with indocyanine green dye injections.\n\n\nRESULTS\nOxygen uptake (V[Combining Dot Above]O2) increased as a function of increasing cadence (all pairwise comparisons, p<0.05). EMGdi and Wb were significantly greater at 120rpm compared to all other conditions (all p<0.01). Vastus medialis and semitendinosus BFI were significantly greater at 120rpm compared to 60 rpm and 90 rpm (all p<0.05). Gastrocnemius BFI was higher at 120 rpm compared to all other cadences (all p<0.01). No difference in BFI was found in the vastus lateralis (p=0.06).

It discloses a procedure of the author's estimate of restrictions and building of a mathematical model which reflects not only conventional town-planning restrictions, but also social and aesthetic aspects of the analyzed territory. The method allows one to quickly get an idea of the territory potential. It is possible to use an unlimited number of estimated factors. The method can be used for the integrated assessment of urban areas. In addition, it is possible to use the methods of preliminary evaluation of the territory commercial attractiveness in the preparation of investment projects. The technique application results in simple informative graphics. Graphical interpretation is straightforward from the experts. A definite advantage is the free perception of the subject results as they are not prepared professionally. Thus, it is possible to build a dialogue between professionals and the public on a new level allowing to take into account the interests of various parties. At the moment, the method is used as a tool for the preparation of integrated urban development projects at the Department of Architecture in Federal State Autonomous Educational Institution of Higher Education \"South Ural State University (National Research University)\", FSAEIHE SUSU (NRU). The methodology is included in a course of lectures as the material on architectural and urban design for architecture students.

The transient performance of proposed ACCS i.e., settling time, rise time, maximum overshot, peak time and steady state error are investigated by step input response and root locus analysis. To show the efficacy of the proposed algorithm over a state space method, classical PID, fuzzy logic, genetic algorithm, a comparison study is presented by using MATLAB\/SIMULINK. Furthermore, the robustness of the system is evaluated by using bode analysis, sensitivity, complimentary sensitivity and controller sensitivity.

+{"text":"The research aim is to propose an innovative strategy that intends to crosslink different level-experience engineers and to inspect why there is a lack of integrity between industry and academia. The target groups involved undergraduate, graduate, senior, and professional petroleum engineering levels. With the help of a survey that involved participants from five different levels of experience, we identified an efficient and cost-effective process that could link academia and the industry.\n In the current academic learning styles, vast theoretical concepts are being focused on. It is essential to acknowledge the importance of industrial training. The lack of integration between industry and academia can violate the meaning of engineering, which is the art of application. A way to tackle such a lack of disintegration involves including real-life experiences within the taught academic courses. This could help students develop a comprehensive vision of real-life applications and gain insight into the actual applications.\n The process to investigate the reasons behind the disintegration between academia and industry was done by conducting a simple survey to investigate what we termed the \"5 Cycles of Experience,\" which divides up experience levels into 5 sectors: undergraduates, fresh graduates, five, ten, and above ten years of experience. A hundred participants were asked different questions to investigate the reasons for disintegration and the best time for a student to get industrial training.\n The results showed that most of the undergraduates questioned pointed out that having early training while pursuing their major benefitted them vastly, and the best way to receive knowledge would be by being in direct contact with someone with at least five years of experience or above, not fresh graduates. The remainder of the participants agreed to that too. The lack of integration originated mainly from the difficulty for some undergraduates to get access to training, their lack of interest, and their belief that they are being forced to do something they consider secondary. Another reason could be the overwhelm of undergraduates with the academic workload imposed by some instructors.\n We intend to propose solutions to the problems that lead to the lack of connection. These include the incorporation and contribution of those in higher positions to help those in need to reach out to sites that offer training. This also includes organizing campaigns to raise awareness among new learners that such training, especially early, is relevant but complements the educational learning process. It was, finally, incorporating training within academics with lowering the academic theoretical workload.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":263647487,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.2118\/216092-ms","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

These countries were affected in different ways but they started to get closer and develop their relations. In this extended essay; the political, military and cultural aspects of the relationship between Turkey and Russia in the period of 1919-1939 was examined. This is an important interval since it includes the fall of former empires of both countries: The Ottoman Empire and the Russian Empire. After the collapse of these empires, the newly formed governments for both sides were united. The Bolshevik ideology and Turkish National Struggle allied against their common enemy Imperialism, despite the discrepancy of the regimes. The fight of Soviet Union against Imperialism was a political one whereas Turkey was trying to gain its independence. In this period, Soviet Russia's aim was to convert the regime in Turkey to socialism but Turkish government has used that hope as a trump card to gain Russia's support. The reason behind narrowing the aspects and period of time was to investigate topics more detailed and deeply. While studying this period when the relations between Turkey and Russia have reached its climax, books, periodicals of the period and websites were used as sources.

The aim of the article is to show that there is a close relationship between aggression directed against humans and animals perpetrated by the same persons. The article is a report from research conducted by the author. The paper is divided into six parts: introduction presenting the status quaestionis of the problem, research methodology, results of research based on file records, criminological theories explaining aggressive behaviours and conclusions. The basic finding is that there are links between aggression towards people and animals, in particular these links are noticeable with the crime of domestic violence which is penalized under provisions of the article 207 of the Polish Penal Code.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":237960197,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3178750480","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.31648\/SP.6618","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"The most frequent BCR\u2010ABL1 fusion transcripts in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) are the e13a2 (b2a2) and the e14a2 (b3a2) ones. In the imatinib era few studies addressing the prognostic significance of the BCR\u2010ABL1 transcript type in early chronic phase CML have been published. Overall, these studies suggest that in e14a2 patients the response to imatinib is faster and deeper. To evaluate if the BCR\u2010ABL1 transcript type (e13a2 compared to e14a2) affect the response to imatinib and the clinical outcome in newly diagnosed adult CML patients, 559 patients enrolled in 3 prospective studies (NCT00514488, NCT00510926, observational study CML\/023) were analyzed. A qualitative PCR was performed at baseline: 52% patients had a e14a2 transcript, 37% a e13a2 transcript, 11% co\u2010expressed both transcripts and 1% had other rare transcripts. The median follow\u2010up was 76 months (95% of the patients had at least a 5\u2010year observation). The complete cytogenetic response rates were comparable in e14a2 and e13a2 patients. The median time to MR3.0 (6 and 12 months) and MR4.0 (41 and 61 months) was significantly shorter for e14a2 patients compared to e13a2 patients, with a higher cumulative probability of MR3.0 (88% and 83%, P\u2009<\u2009.001) and MR4.0 (67% and 52%, P\u2009=\u2009.001).

The multi-region urban network is modeled using the macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD) of urban traffic, with each region having a well-defined MFD. For more realistic simulations of urban networks with route guidance actuation based control, we propose a new model with cyclic behavior prohibition. Furthermore, we extend upon earlier work on perimeter control based MPC schemes with MFD modeling by integrating route guidance type actuation, which distributes flows exiting a region over its neighboring regions. Performance of the proposed schemes are evaluated via simulations of a congested scenario with noise in demand estimation and measurement errors.

+{"text":"In this review what is known about the chemistry of hydrocarbon molecules on transition metal surfaces will be surveyed. Here the authors discuss the results reported to date on the structure and reactivity of the different types of hydrocarbon moieties that form on transition metal surfaces. One of the goals of this review is to provide an organometallic guide for the possible interactions of hydrocarbons with transition metals with the idea of examining their relation to the corresponding surface chemistry. The authors however limit the review of the organometallic literature to the information relevant to the surface systems, and also narrow the field to cover only molecules with carbon and hydrogen atoms; compounds containing other atoms (O, S, N) will be excluded. The present review is organized in the following manner. First, a brief discussion of the experimental techniques used to characterize both organometallic and surface systems is presented. A discussion of the coordination and structure of the different types of organic moieties, first in organometallic compounds and then on metal surfaces, follows. Here the systems are classified according to the type of bonding between the molecules and the metals. Next, the different elementary steps that such systems can undergomore\u00a0\u00bb are summarized: C-H and C-C bond-breaking and bond-forming reactions, isomerizations, and others. Again, the chemistry of organometallic compounds is discussed first, and the surface chemistry is presented subsequently. A brief description of a few key nonelementary reactions is also given, including some catalytic processes.

+{"text":"Women's entrance into the National Guard in 1950 was an historic moment in America's military history. From that moment on, women have been instrumental in building the National Guard into what it is today: a ready, accessible, and capable force that is an invaluable combat reserve for the active Army and Air Force. Women in the National Guard are essential to defending the nation, supporting our communities, and building partnership capacity. They exemplify our government's commitment to integrating women into defense, development, and diplomatic efforts.Last fall, I passed the milestone of having served 46 years in our military. It has been an incredible journey, beginning with my enlistment in the Missouri National Guard in 1969 to my current position as the Chief of the National Guard Bureau and a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Over the years, I have witnessed extraordinary change in the National Guard, particularly since 9\/11 and the long period of war which followed. The National Guard has transformed from a strategic reserve to an operational force, requiring the skill sets of both women and men to maintain the high operations tempo while ensuring mission success. The need to organize, equip, and train for two wars while protecting the homeland has required the National Guard to be at its highest readiness state in history.During my time in service, 1 believe one of the most important accomplishments in becoming a more ready force is by providing greater opportunities for our female Guardsmen. These opportunities have not occurred by chance, but rather, through a concerted effort of societal forces that recognized the need for inclusion of women combined with the passage of a series of resolutions, statutes, and policies that recognize the contributions that female service members can make to the military.Thomas P.M. Barnett noted that when we look around the world the most successful and secure societies are those that do not marginalize women-those that allow for their economic and political participation.1 Nations that embrace women in all aspects of their society participate fully in our era of globalization, political freedom, and international human rights. Whether it is in business, science, education, or politics, we have seen women creating, innovating, and leading our nation into the 21st century. It is accurate to say that without women's contributions to our society, we would only be tapping into half of our nation's reservoir of talent. Thus, I believe women serving in the military, expanding their roles in the military, and leading our military, are ideas that are natural and logical.Since 1951, the Defense Advisory Committee on Women in the Services has been providing recommendations to the Secretary of Defense on women's issues in the service; its efforts have contributed greatly to the advances we have made in the promotion and advancement of females serving in the military. These improvements led to a landmark moment in 1991, when Congress began lifting the ban on women serving in combat by allowing female pilots to fly in war zones.In 2000, the United Nations Security Council met and passed UN Security Council Resolution 1325 (UNSCR 1325) which recognized the nexus between gender and security. The Security Council recognized that women play an important role in bringing about peace and stability, whether serving as leaders in conflict mediation or as members of the security forces helping bring about a secure environment for women and their associated communities.Measures such as the 2011 U.S. National Action Plan on Women, Peace, and Security (WPS) illustrate our nation's awareness that, \"[d]eadly conflicts can be more effectively avoided, and peace can be best forged and sustained, when women become equal partners in all aspects of peacebuilding and conflict prevention, when their lives are protected, their experiences considered, and their voices heard. \u2026","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":152183475,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2603692934","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"(i) The definition of the Dor procedure is not completely correct: Dor, in his original description of the procedure and in subsequent papers, stressed that the primary goal of this surgery is the exclusion of all scar tissue from the left ventricular cavity, and he has given great attention to the septum that, if involved, must be excluded [2]. In Dor's surgical population, there are patients treated for ventricular enlargement with almost exclusive involvement of the septum. In all of Dor's publications, it is well stressed that a correct surgical procedure must achieve a known volume and this can be obtained easily using a sizer. This technical detail avoids the mistake of leaving too small a cavity or leaving too big a cavity that can neutralize the benefit of the procedure. Because an ellipsoid shape of the left ventricle is more physiological and can induce its easier emptying of the left ventricle, a shaper with a physiological ratio between the longitudinal and the transverse diameter was introduced in clinical practice. The volume of this device is chosen according to the patient's body surface area. The surgeon, with the sizer inside the cavity, can be easily guided not only in choosing to use or not a patch to rebuild the cavity (in our experience a patch is used in half of the cases), but also in trimming the patch, which can have very different shapes and surfaces according to the anatomy of the underlying ventricle. Diastolic dysfunction is a very controversial topic and often is suspected when the surgical results are not as expected. In the paper published in NEJM in 2009 showing the results of the STICH trial Hypothesis 2 [3], the worsening of diastolic function after SVR is considered as a negative counterbalance on the positive effects of volume reduction. However, this hypothesis is not supported by consistent data. It is amazing to observe that in almost all papers dealing with the clinical results of SVR diastolic dysfunction is considered, but few studies report measurements performed before and after the procedure. Furthermore, the degree of diastolic dysfunction is also debated. In 2008 Castelvecchio et al. [4] showed that, in a population of 146 patients undergoing SVR, diastolic dysfunction was present in 95% of the cases before surgery; after the procedure, the filling pattern was unchanged in 72%, improved in 10% and worsened in 18%. The sphericity index seems not to be a good parameter to describe the shape of a ventricle and it does not impact the diastolic function. Indeed, the baseline Conicity index (as obtained from the apical to short-axis ratio in the four-chamber view) and a small volume reduction with respect to the baseline volume are the strongest indicators of worsening diastolic function after SVR. Diastolic dysfunction is a complex matter; considering the final shape of the reconstructed ventricle as the major determinant of diastolic dysfunction may be totally misleading. (ii) It is always difficult to compare different procedures performed in two different periods. This paper describes a long experience covering 24 years; 107 patients were treated from 1988 to 2001, with a volume reduction strategy, and 294 were treated from 2001 to 2014 with shape-oriented surgical techniques. In such a long period, the expertise of the surgeons is certainly changed, as well the medical treatment and the patients' profile. The treatment of acute myocardial infarction \u2014with the introduction of new drugs and the extensive use of primary PCI\u2014is nowadays very different from what it was in 1988. We see now a type of ventricular remodelling different from the remodelling observed in the past when the classical left ventricular dyskinetic aneurysm was the most frequent anatomical presentation. (iii) According to the data published in Table 1, the left ventricular volumes (EDVI and ESVI) are identical but Figure 3 shows a volume reduction of 15% in the older series of patients (VR) and of 32% in the more recent series (CS). We can argue that, in spite of the fact that the VR population had better EF, less mitral insufficiency and smaller volumes, the reduction was not enough. All publications dealing with SVR show a good volume reduction to be at least 30% or more, because the residual volume is the greatest risk factor for death and MACE at the medium and long-term follow-up [5]. (iv) The follow-up is completed in 100% of patients over an observation period of 24 years. This is a point of great strength of this paper and the authors have to be congratulated for this titanic effort. M.

+{"text":"In data-driven systems, we often encounter tuples on which the predictions of a machine-learned model are untrustworthy. A key cause of such untrustworthiness is non-conformance of a new tuple with respect to the training dataset. To check conformance, we introduce a novel concept of data invariant, which captures a set of implicit constraints that all tuples of a dataset satisfy: a test tuple is non-conforming if it violates the data invariants. Data invariants model complex relationships among multiple attributes; but do not provide interpretable explanations of non-conformance. We present ExTuNe, a system for Explaining causes of Tuple Non-conformance. Based on the principles of causality, ExTuNe assigns responsibility to the attributes for causing non-conformance. The key idea is to observe change in invariant violation under intervention on attribute-values. Through a simple interface, ExTuNe produces a ranked list of the test tuples based on their degree of non-conformance and visualizes tuple-level attribute responsibility for non-conformance through heat maps. ExTuNe further visualizes attribute responsibility, aggregated over the test tuples. We demonstrate how ExTuNe can detect and explain tuple non-conformance and assist the users to make careful decisions towards achieving trusted machine learning.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":212414573,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3030665736","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1145\/3318464.3384694","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Chevron USA, Inc., arguing that, rather than a simple technical correction, it marked the conclusion to a long-running debate within the Court's regulatory takings jurisprudence on whether substantive due process has a role in takings analysis. The author traces the Court's early land use cases, which were based in due process, to identify the origins of two separate strands of analysis for government regulations affecting the use of property, one focusing on the extent of government intrusion, the other on the substantive legitimacy of the regulation. This duality between economic impact and substantive legitimacy persisted, although not fully acknowledged, in modern takings analysis, and underlies the debates within the Court over the proper takings remedy and the extent of the government's liability for regulations designed to prevent public harm. The author then analyzes the Court's lengthy struggle to define whether the legitimacy of government action (a due process inquiry) is properly a part of the takings analysis, noting the tension between Penn Central and Agins. In Lingle, the Article concludes, the Court took its clear opportunity to reject the \"substantially advances\" test, removing any substantive due process element from the takings inquiry and espousing a narrow vision of what constitutes a regulatory taking that will have important policy consequences.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":150498215,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"100355934","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"The rectangular faulty block model is the most commonly used fault model for designing fault-tolerant and deadlock-free routing algorithms in mesh-connected multicomputers. The convexity of a rectangle facilitates simple and efficient ways to route messages around fault regions using relatively few virtual channels to avoid deadlock. However, such a faulty block may include many nonfaulty nodes which are disabled, i.e., they are not involved in the routing process. Therefore, it is important to define a fault region that is convex, and at the same time, to include a minimum number of nonfaulty nodes. In this paper, we propose a simple and efficient distributed algorithm that can quickly construct a set of special convex polygons, called orthogonal convex polygons, from a given set of rectangular faulty blocks in a 2-D mesh (or 2-D torus). The formation of orthogonal convex polygons is done through a labeling scheme based on iterative message exchanges among neighboring nodes. For a given faulty block, after some nonfaulty nodes have been removed, the block is split into a set of orthogonal convex polygons, each of which is the smallest orthogonal convex polygon that contains all the faults it covers. Moreover, we show that the number of nonfaulty nodes covered in these polygons is no more than the one in the smallest orthogonal convex polygon that includes all the faulty nodes in the original faulty block. Finally, we discuss one open problem and present extensions to multidimensional meshes.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":39062142,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1966495249","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1006\/jpdc.2002.1842","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Quite different from conventional planar devices, both stress and recovery of NBTI in SNWTs are evidently impacted by electron trapping\/detrapping behavior, due to the enhanced electrical field with cylinder surrounded gate, increased electron traps in the gate dielectrics and electron injection from metal gates.

Results: In NOD LG, lymphocytic infiltration was noted by 2\u2009M and established by 3\u2009M (p\u2009<\u20090.01). IFN-\u0263, TNF-\u03b1, and MHC II expression were increased by 2\u2009M (p\u2009<\u20090.01). Tear CTSS activity was significantly elevated at 2\u2009M (p\u2009<\u20090.001) to a maximum of 10.1-fold by 6\u2009M (p\u2009<\u20090.001). CTSS activity in LG lysates was significantly elevated by 2\u2009M (p\u2009<\u20090.001) to a maximum of 14-fold by 3\u2009M (p\u2009<\u20090.001). CTSS and Rab3D immunofluorescence were significantly increased and decreased maximally in LG acini by 3\u2009M and 2\u2009M, respectively. Comparable changes were not detected between 1 and 6\u2009M BALB\/c mouse LG, although Collagen 1 was decreased by 6\u2009M in LG of both strains. Conclusion: Tear CTSS activity is elevated with other early disease indicators, suggesting potential as an early stage biomarker for SS.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":52047623,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2888441281","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1080\/1354750X.2018.1514656","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The exogenous application of natural metabolites is a useful strategy to reduce the adverse effects of stress on crops. We investigated the effect of foliar application of salicylic acid (SA) and ferulic acid (FA) (10\u2013100 \u03bcM) on short-term salt-stressed (150 mM NaCl, 72 h) Chinese cabbage plants. Subsequently, proline level, photosynthetic performance, phenolic metabolites with special focus on selected phenolic acids (sinapic acid (SiA), FA, SA), flavonoids (quercetin (QUE), kaempferol (KAE)), and antioxidant activity were investigated in salt-stressed and phenolic acid-treated plants compared with the corresponding controls. Salt stress caused a significant increase in SA and proline contents, a decrease in phenolic compounds, antioxidant activity, and photosynthetic performance, especially due to the impairment of PSI function. SA and FA treatments, with a concentration of 10 \u03bcM, had attenuated effects on salt-stressed plants, causing a decrease in proline and SA level, and indicating that the plants suffered less metabolic disturbance. Polyphenolic compounds, especially FA, SiA, KAE, and QUE, were increased in FA and SA treatments in salt-stressed plants. Consequently, antioxidant activities were increased, and photosynthetic performances were improved.

Around 25% of men are given a diagnosis of unexplained infertility by normal semen analysis. The World Health Organisation (WHO) stated in 2021 that 'clinically there is a growing awareness that chromosomal anomalies and gene mutations underlie a diverse spectrum of male infertility,' so now recommends that sperm DNA is determined as an extended analysis. Sperm DNA damage occurs more often in infertile men and DNA damage is associated with recurrent pregnancy loss and decreased live birth rates following fertility treatment.\n \n \n \n A prospective cohort study of men attending a secondary fertility clinic were offered a standard semen analysis plus sperm DNA fragmentation using SpermComet technology. UK IRAS ethical approval was obtained. Men attending were given a patient information leaflet at their first appointment. The study duration was 6 months. In total, 142 men were recruited out of a possible maximum of 409 attendees.\n \n \n \n Participants included men who had been referred as a couple to a secondary level infertility clinic for an initial assessment. Information leaflets were either posted to them prior to their first appointment or given to them at the initial nurse-led consultation. Those who subsequently contacted our research team re-attended for a sperm analysis and an aliquot was cryopreserved and sent in weekly batches to Examen (Northern Ireland) for SpermComet DNA fragmentation assessment.\n \n \n \n Between May and November 2021, there were 409 attendees of whom 142 consented to the study.\n Sperm DNA quality for the participants was assessed and reported as average, low and high DNA damage as a percentage compared with clinical thresholds used by Examen from their sperm bank of 63 fertile sperm donors who had recently achieved clinical pregnancies.\n Of the 142 recruited, 77 men (54%) attending for initial investigations had normospermia assessed against the WHO criteria, so were initially classified as unexplained. Of these, 25 (32%) had abnormal sperm DNA values. The average comet score was 39.7% +\/-1.3, low comet score was 37.8% +\/- 4.4 and high comet score was 17.0% +\/-2.0.

In Prlrcre\/+;Rosa26LSL\u2010tDTomato\/+ reporter mice, percentages of Prlr+ sensory neurones in female and male DRG are also similar. Characterisation of Prlr+ DRG neurones using immunohistochemistry and electrophysiology revealed that Prlr+ DRG neurones are mainly peptidergic nociceptors in females and males. However, sensory neurone type\u2010dependent expression of Prlr is sex dimorphic. Thus, Prlr+ populations fell into three small\u2010 and two medium\u2010large\u2010sized sensory neuronal groups.

+{"text":"This thesis work was done within the MAGIC experiment, through a collaboration between the Department of Astronomy (University of Padua) and the MAGIC group of INFN Padua. MAGIC (Major Atmosheric Gamma-ray Imaging Cherenkov) is the largest IACT (Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope), situated on the Canarian island La Palma, at 2245 m a.s.l. Its purpose is the analysis of astrophisical sources emitting very-high-energy (above few tens of GeV) gamma rays. The study of these sources is done by the detection of Cherenkov light produced by atmospheric shower initiated by very high energies cosmic gamma rays. There are different astrphysical sources of gamma rays, such as Supernova Remants, Active Galactic Nuclei and Pulsars, but in recent years it has been suggested that gamma-ray emission can be also related to annihilation\/decay processes of Dark Matter particles. Dark Matter is a new and unknown form of matter, different from baryonic matter. In literature there are many experimental evidences given by introducing the concept of DM, such as rotation curves of galaxies or galaxy clusters and anisotropies of the cosmic background. The latter leads to the estimation that 23% of the energy density of the universe is composed by DM, 4% by baryonic matter and 73% by dark energy. In Particle Physics there are many theories beyond Standard Model, i.e. Supersymmetric model and Extra-Dimensional Theories. These models provide particles with suitable characteristics being good candidates of DM. Since the theory suggests that these DM particles can annihilate with a very low cross-section and produce gamma emission proportional to the square of the density of DM, the best sites of investigation are those regions of sky where high DM concentration is located. The dwarf spheriodal galaxies (dSph) satellites of the Milky Way are suitable regions. Segue 1 is one of the most recently discovered dSph (but a debate is open about its nature and origin) and has been observed by MAGIC for a period of 34 hours in 2008-2009. This thesis is structured as follows. In the first chapter there is a brief introdution of gamma astronomy and how gamma rays can be observed by means of the Cherenkov effect in the atmosphere. The direct detection of gamma photons is impossible on ground because of their absorption by atmosphere moleculars. Thus, they need to be observed indirectly via the observation of secondary particles which are produced due to their interaction with atmospheric moleculars. If the speed of these secondary particles is greater than the speed of light in the atmosphere, Cherenkov light is generated and can be detected by IACTs. Gamma rays are a small part of cosmic raysentering the atmosphere, in fact there are cosmic electrons, positron, muons and hadrons that can also generate Cherenkov light. Hence they are the most important background of IACTs. An instrument of discrimination the light generated by gamma-rays from that produced by hadrons is need to study gamma astrophysical sources. The description of the MAGIC telescope is presented in second chapter: principal components of the telescope, the electronic chain of data acquisition, the trigger system and the observation mode are described. In the third chapter the definition of DM physics will be introduced. There is a review of principal observational evidences for DM and a brief introduction of modern cosmology and termic history to give useful concepts and termimologies. The second part of this chapter describes principal model of particle physics. Attention is focused on constrain minimal supersymmetric model (CMSSM or mSUGRA) where freedom degrees are only five, though appropriate boundary condition on GUT scale. In these models the lighest supersymmetric particle (LSP) is neutralino. In the fourth chapter two softwares, micrOMEGAs 2.2i and DarkSUSY5.0.4, are presented. Defining five parameters these codes provide spectrum mass of supersymmetric particles and calculate the relic LSP density, the LSP cross section and gamma spectrum of annihilation. In addition a comparison between the results obtained with the two programs is given. Finally in the fifth chapter the wholeMAGIC analysis chain of Segue 1 data is described. The analysis of the observed source data led to a negative result. Only the upper limits calculation on gamma flux \u03a6UL and on cross section of annihilation \u3008\u03c3v\u3009UL is possible to perform, assuming a precise model of neutralino. The chosen model is a neutralino which annihilates completely into leptons \u03c4+\u03c4\u2212. The upper limits \u3008\u03c3v\u3009UL as a function of neutralino mass are a experimental contrain of neutralino models assumed by Essig et al. [28] and Kawasaki et al.

+{"text":"Abstract Information on the transient response of heat exchangers is essential to produce the optimum heat exchanger operation for the required function. A transient response analysis is presented for a heat exchanger with an infinite capacitance fluid on the shell side. The inlet temperature of the finite capacity fluid is stepped, and the heat exchanger response is represented by the change in the temperature of this fluid at the outlet of the tubes. The results cover all practical combinations of the dependent parameters and are presented as a set of charts. Results of previous workers in this field are discussed. Their charts cover a very restricted range of heat transfer conditions and are therefore of limited use.

+{"text":"Prior ultralow thermal conductivity materials are not suitable for thermoelectric applications due to the limited electronic transport in the materials. Here, we present a new class of ultralow thermal conductivity materials with substantial electronic heat transport. Our samples are graphene\/metal heterostructures of transferred graphene and ultrathin metal films (Pd, Au and Ni) deposited by either thermal evaporation or rf magnetron sputtering. For the evaporated samples, we achieve an ultralow thermal conductivity of 0.06 W m-1 K-1, with phonons as the dominant heat carriers. The ultralow thermal conductivity is due to a huge disparity in phonon energy in graphene and metals. Interestingly, for the sputtered samples, we find that about 50 % of heat is carried by electrons, even when thermal conductivity is about 0.1 W m-1 K-1. We attribute the electronic contribution to transmission of electrons across atomic-scale pinholes in graphene. With the ultralow thermal conductivity and substantial electronic transport, the new materials could be explored for thermoelectric applications.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":118900866,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2900497995","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":"1806.09962"},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The Deputy Secretary and other conference organizers are to be commended for bringing together senior leaders from inside and outside DOD. Collaboration and partnering are central enablers. We have worked hard to incorporate these principles into daily practice at GAO. I recognize that business practices at DOD are not going to change overnight. But this conference can help this process by encouraging an exchange of ideas. By sharing professional experiences and expertise, everyone here has an opportunity to enrich DOD's knowledge base and help build the Department's capacity to develop new solutions to old problems. Your presence here today is evidence of the defense workforce's strong work ethic and commitment to its mission. These basic DOD values, combined with strong leadership and follow-through, can achieve huge improvement in business practices because there is a lot of untapped potential at DOD to get better results and the best support to the warfighter. As I looked over the conference materials, the goals set forth for DOD are laudable. Those goals are to -- demonstrate support for the President's directive to improve business operations; -- showcase success stories about enterprise-wide performance improvement; and -- establish an ongoing review process to solve enterprise-wide challenges. These goals recognize the shared opportunities and responsibilities to address longstanding weaknesses in DOD business operations and achieve measurable and sustainable results. Identifying the challenges is the easy part, as those of you who navigate DOD's business processes on a daily basis know all too well. The hard part is identifying solutions, taking action, sustaining progress, and maintaining momentum.

+{"text":"Researchers working in developing countries face complex ethical dilemmas. Before commenting on ethical concerns regarding this case, we need to understand the circumstances in which research is done in developing countries. Provision of even basic healthcare facilities is usually not available for a majority of the population. Patients have to pay for healthcare, and their poverty coupled with illiteracy, make them vulnerable to exploitation both as patients as well as research participants. Researchers working in this scenario have to make extra efforts to minimise ethical risks. Patients may participate in a research study either because of therapeutic misconception or because they may feel that this is the only way they can access care. In this case, it is quite understandable that the coordinator may feel tempted to help his patients by giving them leftover drugs which would otherwise be destroyed. I would however strongly resist this temptation. Providing patients chemotherapeutic drugs unofficially exposes them to undue risk as they will have no support from any quarter in the case of adverse events resulting from this therapy. Chemotherapy cannot be provided to patients casually and needs proper monitoring, hospital support and nursing care. Even though the drug used in this research seems effective, the coordinator himself is worried about the side effects. Making these drugs available \"unofficially\" in this manner not only endangers the lives of already sick patients, but does not really help them in the long run. There will be a limited stock of even the leftover drugs. What happens when that ends? Even though the trial coordinator may mean well for the patients, what he proposes cannot be considered a viable alternative. If such a suggestion is accepted in this particular case, it can lead to misuse of leftover drugs in other trials as well.

+{"text":"The study examines the degree of regional and global integration of 11African Stock Markets (ASMs) using monthly return series from 1997 to 2015. It tests for the existence of structural breaks and whether any detected significant break in the regional and global degrees of integration caused an increase or decrease in segmentation. Additionally, the study examines the impact of the 2008 Global Financial Crisis (GFC) on the regional and global integration of the ASMs. Evidence is provided that suggests: (i) a time-varying regional and global integration of the ASMs; and (ii) that global integration dominates regional integration for all of the ASMs. The ASMs are more globally integrated, relative to their degrees of regional integration. Significant structural breaks are detected, which for most countries are associated with an increase in the degree of integration and for others a decrease in the degree of integration. Most of the observed structural breakpoints in the degree of global integration correspond with the GFC; however, the structural shifts in regional integration are largely unrelated to the GFC. The evidence shows that geographic proximity may have minimal impact on market integration unless there is an associated regional economic integration. Regional diversification benefits may thus exceed that of global diversification and vice versa depending on the extent and direction of economic activities of the economies of the geographic region.

From this point of view, the tree and the circle join the line as geometrical metaphors able to give back the structure and the functions of the frontiers and their capacity to articulate state powers (sovereign, disciplinary and biopolitical). The reorganisation of frontiers outlines the construction of a liminal space and time within the national borders in which these state powers are enforced upon migrant populations. It is a sort of internalisation of frontiers that couples with their already highlighted externalisation. Adopting a panoramic glance, the coupled processes of internalisation and externalisation of frontiers draw a transnational and interstate territory. Along this border territory, however discontinuous and stray, migrants flow and through it the contemporary figures of asylum seekers and refugees are constructed.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":132135223,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2604900595","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.13128\/CAMBIO-20408","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Leveraging our technology against a syngeneic mouse model of glioblastoma (GBM), we reveal the tumor's influence on immune cell subsets hitherto undescribed in the disease, including CD45R\/B220+ CD8+ T cells characterized by their ability to constrain immune response to autologous antigens.

+{"text":"Abstract Objective: To assess the association of conventional semen parameters and sperm DNA fragmentation with risk of recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA). Design: Systematic review and meta-analysis. Setting: Not applicable. Patient(s): Total 1,690 male partners of women with RSA, and 1,337 male partners of fertile control women. Intervention(s): Case-control or cohort studies were determined by searching PubMed, Google Scholar, Cochrane Libraries, China Biology Medicine disc, Chinese Scientific Journals Fulltext Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Wanfang Database. RSA was defined as two or more previous pregnancy losses. The fertile women refer to the reproductive women who have had at least a normal pregnancy history and no history of abortion. Main Outcome Measure(s): This study included eight outcome measures: semen volume(ml), semen pH value, sperm density(106\/ml), sperm viability (%), sperm progressive motility rate (%), normal sperm morphology rate (%), sperm deformity rate(%), sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI) (%). The summary measures were reported as standardized mean difference (SMD) with 95% confidence interval (CI). Result(s): Finally, twenty-four studies were included for analysis. Overall, male partners of women with RSA had a significantly lower level of sperm density (SMD\u200a=\u200a-0.53, 95%CI: \u2013 0.75 to \u20130.30), sperm viability (SMD\u200a=\u200a-1.03, 95%CI: \u2013 1.52 to \u20130.54), sperm progressive motility rate (SMD\u200a=\u200a-0.76, 95%CI:-1.06 \u2013 -0.46), and normal sperm morphology rate (SMD\u200a=\u200a \u20130.56, 95%CI: \u2013 0.99 to \u20130.12), and had a significantly higher rate of sperm deformity rate (SMD\u200a=\u200a1.29, 95%CI: 0.60 \u2013 1.97), and sperm DFI (SMD\u200a=\u200a1.60, 95%CI: 1.04 to 2.17), when compared with the reference group. However, there were no statistically significant differences for semen volume (SMD\u200a=\u200a-0.03, 95%CI: -0.14 \u2013 0.08) and semen pH value (SMD\u200a=\u200a \u20130.23, 95% CI: \u20130.50 to 0.05) among 2 groups. Conclusion(s): The results of this analysis support an association of sperm density, sperm viability, sperm progressive motility rate, normal sperm morphology rate, sperm deformity rate, as well as sperm DFI with RSA. However, given the significant heterogeneity between studies and the lack of more detailed data on the subjects, further large-scale prospective studies are needed.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":232261421,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1097\/MD.0000000000024828","PubMedCentral":"7969329","ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"To facilitate human assembly tasks, Robonaut 2 is equipped with a dexterous, compact hand featuring fingers driven remotely by tendons. This work outlines the force-control strategy for the fingers, which are actuated by an \"n + 1\" tendon arrangement. Existing tendon-driven fingers have applied force control through independent tension controllers on each tendon, in other words, in the tendon space. The coupled kinematics of the tendons, however, cause such controllers to exhibit a transient coupling in their response. This problem can be resolved by alternatively framing the controllers in the joint space of the finger. A joint-space torque control law is proposed here that demonstrates a decoupled response with a faster settling time than an equivalent tendon-space formulation. In addition, a tension distribution algorithm is presented here to translate joint torque commands into tendon tensions. It guarantees that each tendon tension respects both an upper and a lower bound, using an efficient, finitely-convergent algorithm. These two contributions provide for a compliant, well-controlled hand, aptly suited for unstructured interaction.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":16065176,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2096672608","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1177\/0278364912468302","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

However, CRs must form a cognitive radio network (CRN) so that the messages can be forwarded from source to destination, on top of a number of opportunistic links from co-existing multi-radio systems. Unfortunately, appropriate routing in CRN of coexisting multi-radio systems remains an open problem. We explore the fundamental behaviors of CR links to conclude three major challenges, and thus decompose general CRN into cognitive radio relay network (CRRN), CR uplink relay network, CR downlink relay network, and tunneling (or core) network. Due to extremely dynamic nature of CR links, traditional routing to maintain end-to-end routing table for ad hoc networks is not feasible. We locally build up one-step forward table at each CR to proceed based on spectrum sensing to determine trend of paths from source to destination, while primary systems (PSs) follow original ways to forward packets like tunneling. From simulations over ad hoc with infrastructure network topology and random network topology, we demonstrate such simple routing concept known as CRN local on-demand (CLOD) routing to be realistic at reasonable routing delay to route packets through.

Although PPIs prediction is a crucial and well-studied task in bioinformatics, they still lack thorough investigations for several proteins. The cost of understanding PPIs and identifying protein\u2013protein non-interactions (PPNIs) using sequence alignment make the current computational methods inefficient, so identifying PPNIs without applying sequence alignment has become a necessity. In this research, a machine learning approach is proposed for PPIs prediction based on protein sequence information, in which we introduced \"Features-based Negative Generation\" which is a novel approach for identifying PPNIs samples. This method measures sequence features' similarity without alignment for an affordable computational feasibility. After PPNIs identification the Conjoint Triad (COT) and Epitopes are used for features extraction and results of both are compared to achieve higher accuracy with less time consumption. Five machine learning techniques were investigated to learn from the interacting pairs sequence, obtaining PPI features.

Applying Epitopes with our PPNIs dataset using 21 features achieved an accuracy of 94.5% versus 92.5% with random negative dataset, which indicates that identified PPNIs datasets are clearer, less noise and prediction of PPI using identified PPNIs is more accurate.

However, for children admitted to Paediatric Intensive Care Units (PICU), mortality has been reported to be lower in males, although males have higher admission rates. This female mortality excess for the subgroup of children admitted in intensive care is not well understood. To address this, we carried out a systematic literature review to summarise the available evidence. Our review studies the differences in mortality between males and females aged 0 to <18 years, while in a PICU, to examine whether there was a clear difference (in either direction) in PICU mortality between the two sexes, and, if present, to describe the magnitude and direction of this difference. Methods and analysis: Any studies that directly or indirectly reported the rates of mortality in children admitted to intensive care by sex were eligible for inclusion. The search strings were based on terms related to the population (those admitted into a paediatric intensive care unit), the exposure (sex), and the outcome (mortality). We used the search databases MEDLINE, Embase, and Web of Science as these cover relevant clinical publications. We assessed the reliability of included studies using a modified version of the risk of bias in observational studies of exposures (ROBINS-E) tool. We considered estimating a pooled effect if there were at least three studies with similar populations, periods of follow-up while in PICU, and adjustment variables. Results: We identified 124 studies of which 114 reported counts of deaths by males and females which gave a population of 278,274 children for analysis, involving 121,800 (44%) females and 156,474 males (56%).

The case for the overall importance of foreign investment in nineteenth-century economic growth could have been more finely drawn. One thing that I find very intriguing about this book is the number of avenues for future exploration that it suggests. Let me mention two. The effects of the defaults of a number of American states in the 1840s and again in the period after the Civil War are particularly interesting. After the 1841 to 1842 defaults the Paris Rothschild was telling the U.S. government that they \"can not borrow a dollar, not a dollar,\" but by 1848 the Rothschilds were again aggressively marketing U.S. debt in European markets. Does this mean that Hamilton's arguments about the importance of reputation in the debate on the refunding of the public debt were in fact wrong? Secondly, Davis and Cull attribute the rise of the New York Stock Exchange relative to other regional exchanges to its strategy of limiting membership to relatively large and sound firms so that a New York Stock Exchange listing became a signal of quality. What does such a strategy imply about the relationship between the London and New York exchanges? Were London-listed firms ultimately at similar disadvantages?

The electromagnetic field was generated by a 3-phase, 2-pole inductor. Just before the start of the solidification process, the magnetic field was switched off to achieve a microstructure free of melt flow influence. The sample translation velocity was constant (0.05 mm\/s), and the temperature gradient changed from 7 to 3 K\/mm during the solidification process. The first half part of each sample solidified without influence of rotating magnetic field while solidification of the second half part proceeded under the action of the RMF.

This paper is also unique in that it combines data collected from two different sources; the internet and an on-site survey, thus alleviating the problem of endogenenous stratification that is found when carrying out on-site surveys alone. The Travel Cost Model (TCM) method of estimation is used to put a value on the demand for whitewater recreation on the Roughty river, Co. Kerry, Ireland. Whitewater kayaking is well suited for the use of TCM to estimate recreational values as it is conducted at distinct, identifiable sites, and most paddling trips are single purpose, taken for the sole purpose of recreation at the site (English and Bowker, 1996). With regard to the estimation of our travel cost model, the study found that the mean willingness to pay (i.e. the consumer surplus + travel cost) of the average kayaker using the Roughty river in Co. Kerry was ?194 per trip. This result is conditional on the survey sample but still indicates the high value of the Roughty river as a whitewater recreational resource.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":67749352,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1768269509","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Abstract Background: A good understanding of the anatomical details is required to ensure optimal results during surgery of the orbit. Several indications for orbital surgery require biopsy, resection, or reconstructive procedures. The intricate relationships between the orbital septum and adjacent structures of the upper orbit can cause difficulties in interpreting the surgical anatomy of this region. The purpose of this study was to acquire further insight into the anatomy of the superior part of the orbit, with special attention paid to the orbital septum. Methods: An ex-vivo study was performed using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at 9.4 Tesla (isotropic resolution = 20 \u03bcm) on six human cadaver specimens to examine the superior-medial half of the orbit. To visualise the posterior layers of the upper orbit, a dissection of three of the orbits was performed prior to the MRI examination, and a flexible PVC sheet was introduced above the levator muscle. Results: The technique enabled a visualisation of anatomically important landmarks of the anterior and posterior parts of the upper orbit at a resolution near histological levels; to the authors' knowledge, this visualisation has not been reported previously. A posterior continuation of the orbital septum, which forms a distinct anatomical structure, is revealed. Conclusions: The posterior aspect of the orbital septum separates the levator muscle and the orbital fat pad. Between these two structures, a surgical corridor is formed using MRI, enabling alternative access to the superior part of the orbit; this alternative access might be less invasive because the orbital septum remains undamaged.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":24152381,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1825681621","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3109\/2000656X.2015.1041969","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"There is a long history of attempting to integrate health and care across Warrington, a need which has arisen due to unfavourable health outcomes for some of the population and increased financial pressures. Until recently, these attempts have been unsuccessful. Warrington Together is a partnership that was created in 2017 which works with stakeholders from across the health and care system to integrate care, improve outcomes for residents and eradicate areas of duplication. This paper reviews how an integrated model of care has been designed and implemented in partnership with colleagues from across the health and care system in Warrington and how the culture has changed to allow a more collaborative way of working. Resources have been invested in the development of relationships from across traditional organisational boundaries. Colleagues have been encouraged to work in a 'badgeless' way, considering the needs of the residents of Warrington over their own organisational interests. A series of workshops and development sessions have been held with leaders over the past 12 months to develop a culture of mutual respect and understanding between partners and to create a shared vision and values. Leaders from across the system have been closely involved and own the development of all key documents and processes, such as the vision, a strategic business case and governance structure. This has led to a sense of shared ownership and has created a commitment to implement integrated care. The main aims for the new model of care are: Creation of neighbourhood hubs with co-location of multi-disciplinary integrated care teams. Reducing non-elective attendances and admissions to hospital and providing care closer to home. Increased digital capacity and capability with the creation of the Warrington Care Record. Promotion of assets and asset based working within the community. Reducing dependence on health and care services and moving towards a culture of self-care and independence, where appropriate. These aims will be delivered by senior leaders thinking and working collaboratively as a system. Key signs that signal success include: The hospital trust voluntarily signing up to a 'lite' version of the Capped Expenditure Process. Commitment from a number of partners across the system to the development of the Warrington Care Record, a digital enabler that will enable a virtual patient record. \u00a3500k funding being awarded from the Cheshire and Merseyside Health and Care Partnership as a result of a bid written by the Warrington Together team. Commitment being given from all partners to prioritise work on frailty, including the creation of a frailty hub that involves a number of partners. Implementation of integrated community teams commencing in late 2018. Key factors in this work include giving leaders the autonomy to act and make decisions on behalf of their organisations. This has been crucial to driving change at pace.

+{"text":"The object of the present paper is to bring within the grasp of calculation a much neglected division of ship building scienceand art. Many writers of great ability (French, Spanish, Dutch, Swedish, and English) have studied and explained the forces brought into action upon a ship by her own weight and stability, and by the action of the wind upon her sails and of the waves upon her hull; and the result of their investigations has been to encourage the construction of ships of such forms and such dispositions of weights as conduce to moderate and easy motions in the waves of the sea. The relative positions of the centre of gravity and the metacentre, the excursions of the centres of gravity and buoyancy, the inclinations of the axis of rotation, and many other like questions have been very fully and thoroughly discussed, especially by modern English naval architects; in some cases, I venture to say, with even more elaboration and minuteness of inquiry than their intrinsic importance demands. But while the means of securing ease and moderation of movement of the ship at sea have been thus elaborately studied, in order, mainly, as we have been told, to save the fabric of the ship and its fastenings from excessive strains, comparatively few writers upon naval architecture have pursued the subject to its legitimate and necessary development, by seeking to investigate the actual longitudinal bending- and shearing-strains to which the fabric is in fact exposed in ships of various forms under the various circumstances to which every ship is liable. But more than this: not only has the question of internal strain and strength in the ship been left undeveloped, but a serious fallacy has underlain many of the writings even of men of the greatest eminence upon this subject, viz. the fallacy of considering ease of motion identical with moderation of strain. No doubt ease of motion is very desirable in all ships, and violence of motion tends to distress any given fabric; but at the same time it is quite practicable, as will clearly appear hereafter, to so design and build two ships, that in a sea-way the easier of the two shall be the more distressed even with precisely the same structural arrangements, and therefore it is obviously very desirable to examine the actual strains, both static and dynamic, with which we have to deal. The weakness exhibited by many ships, notwithstanding the greatest care on the part of the designers, has long pointed to the necessity of further investigation in this direction; but two modern events\u2014the introduction of armoured ships, and the use of iron and steel in shipbuilding\u2014have added much to the urgency of the inquiry. A long armoured ship, say, like the 'Minotaur' or 'Agincourt' (400 feet in length, and with fine tapering extremities burdened with towering masses of armour), when pitching in Atlantic waves, undergoes a succession of stresses of great magnitude, undoubtedly requiring to be brought as much as possible within the grasp of calculation, the more so as these stresses undergo continual changes, sweeping through the fabric, so to speak, with prodigious velocity. The employment of iron and steel, and the improvements which the manufacture of both is undergoing, fortunately facilitate the concentration of the strength of the ship in those parts which are subject to the greatest stresses; and to further this object, a closer knowledge of these stresses than has hitherto been possessed is much needed.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":186208122,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1098\/rstl.1871.0017","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In this work, two data driven approaches are proposed to estimate train delays based on historical and real time information. A historical regression model is proposed to estimate future train delays at each station using only past performance of the train along the route. Next, several variations of an online regression model are proposed to estimate delay using delay information of the trains at earlier stations along the current trip, as well as delay information of other trains that share the same corridor. The proposed methods are tested with data collected on 282 Amtrak trains (the largest US passenger railroad service) from 2011 to 2013, which consists of more than 100,000 train trips.

+{"text":"The paper analyzes the transmission mechanisms of fiscal shocks in a two-country general equilibrium model with sticky prices in line with the new open economy macroeconomics (NOEM) approach. Specifically, the model allows for both market segmentation and asymmetric preferences. We introduce money via a cash-in-advance constraint: Households need cash in order to purchase consumption goods and to pay taxes. Therefore, government expenditures are relevant for overall money demand. Providing closed form solutions, we find that a balanced budget fiscal expansion results in an appreciation of the exchange rate. This result stands in sharp contrast to standard open economy models with money-in-the-utility (MIU), that predict depreciations. The exchange rate movement is all the more pronounced, the higher the degree of pricing-to-market (PTM) and the stronger the bias for domestically produced goods. As an appreciation of the short run exchange rate implies lower competitiveness of domestic firms, production is temporarily shortened. Therefore, the deterioration of the trade balance is exacerbated when compared with MIU models. We show that the terms of trade depend qualitatively and quantitatively on the degree of PTM, whereas a home bias in consumption only rules its amplitude. A rigorous welfare analysis reveals that a fiscal expansion is a prosper-thy-neighbor instrument. A higher share of PTM goods reinforces the prosper-thy-neighbor effect while a home bias in consumption tends to reduce the positive spillover effects.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":55791367,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1492571918","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

However, the concept is in its infancy and lacks experimental support. Here we study the ecological factors controlling the proliferation of focal bacterial inoculants into taxa-complex soil communities and their impact on resident microbiota. We demonstrate using standardized soil microbiomes with different growth phases that the proliferation of typical soil inoculants depends on niche competition. By adding an artificial, inoculant selective niche to soil we improve inoculant proliferation and show by metatranscriptomics to give rise to a conjoint metabolic network in the soil microbiome. Furthermore, using random paired growth assays we demonstrate that, in addition to direct competition, inoculants lose competitiveness with soil bacteria because of metabolite sharing. Thus, the fate of inoculants in soil is controlled by niche availability and competitive facilitation, which may be manipulated by selective niche generation.

MIS systems can be described then as one of founding blocks of efficient, well organized and reliable work of healthcare facilities. This is in theory, but in reality there are quite some cases when introduction of MIS downgraded business processes of medical institutions. These cases are usually related to poorly understandable and confusing user interface. This is particularly emphasized in the MIS employment phase, when users are not used to the new applications. Our research has shown that MIS developers have completely different view to the system than the end users. This fact leads towards serious problems during the adoption phase of MIS. Problems escalate when IT professionals try to apply some fancy interface to \" improve \" functionality of the system, rather than to follow the end-users' habits. Working on a project of developing MIS for Serbian public healthcare, we have tried one opposite approach \u2013 to make user interface as much is possible similar to existing documents and follow existing processes and documentation workflows.

The simultaneous occurrence of finite material properties and impedance match with the free space at the respective boundaries reduces the scattering cross section significantly. The material properties of the proposed simplified quadratic cloak can be realized with two dimensional (2D) metamaterials.

The clock source of common network devices is provided by the transistor oscillator in the server, but the oscillator will change with factors such as aging and temperature, and it cannot be guaranteed that the oscillator in the server will work at the same frequency. Time synchronization can be achieved by technologies such as IRIG-B, NTP, or IEEE 1588 (PTP), but the hardware cost of building IRIG-B is high, and NTP has the lowest cost, but it can only provide time accuracy from milliseconds to microseconds. PTP can provide sub-microsecond or even nanosecond time precision. It is a system of time synchronization mechanisms through Ethernet transmission. In this article, we first propose a time synchronization system using the development board and PDP protocol. On the Xilinx Zynq-7000 SOC platform of Petalinux, we implement the hardware solution of Linux PTP. The hardware time stamp is 20 ns.

+{"text":"The chitinase gene of baculovirus is the gene that is not essential for the virus replication. It is expressed in the late phase of the virus replication in insect cells, and it is highly conservative. The chitinase contains three functional regions: N-terminal secretion signal peptide, central active region that includes the active site of family 18 chitinases and a functional C-terminal endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-retention sequence. The enzyme possesses high performance of both exo-and endo-chitinase activity, which can hydrolyze inherent chitin in insect body, and promote liquefaction of the host after death. The chitinase may also serve as a molecular chaperone of pro-V-Cath, the precursor of V-Cath, for its proper folding and transportation in the ER. It has an influence on the polyhedra releasing and cell lysis. The chitinase is also relevant to the baculovirus infection. Phylogenetic analyses indicate that baculovirus acquires the chitinase gene from bacterium via horizontal gene transfer, but insect chitinase gene may directly come from baculovirus. For biological control of pests, the baculovirus chitinase can control insect pests as an insecticide, or work together with Bacillus thuringiensis or a baculovirus as its potentiator; the baculovirus chitinase gene can also be introduced into plants to get the transgenic plants that increase resistance against herbivorous pests and fungal pathogens without affecting non-target insects. The baculovirus chitinase ER-retention motif was deleted or modified, or heterologous chitinase was introduced into the baculovirus genome, which made the biological activity of the recombinant virus enhanced. Deletion of the chitinase and v-cathepsin genes from the baculovirus expression vector through genetic engineering has a positive effect on the integral membrane and secreted proteins.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":88345733,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2392159064","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The contribution of pressure-sensitive interfacial reactions to the acoustic admittance of composite solid propellants has been studied experimentally and theoretically. Using a carboxy-terminated poly butadieneammonium perchlorate propellant, the effects of various coatings on the oxidizer crystals were investigated with a T-burner over a range of frequencies from 150 to 5000 cps. The results show that, of the coatings used (Kel-F 800, Hypalon 30, Viton A, and ethyl-cellulose), only the Kel-F and Viton reduced the apparent reactivity of the propellant binder-oxidizer interface sufficiently to produce a significant reduction in the maximum value of the observed acoustic admittance. These effects are consistent with the greater resistance to oxidation of Kel-F and Viton A compared to the other coating materials and the basic propellant binder. However, all of the coatings produced a significant shift in the acoustic frequency at which the maximum admittance is observed, even when burning rate changes are considered. Theoretical studies were conducted using a combustion model that incorporates the effects of pressuredependent surface reactions, pressure-dependent gas-phase heat transfer, and surface pyrolysis reactions. The predicted acoustic admittance frequency relation is characterized by three independent parameters using a perturbation approach. Parametric studies reveal that high ratios of the maximum acoustic response function to the burning rate pressure exponent are predicted when the net heat release at the propellant surface (pressure-dependent reactions plus pyrolysis reactions) is nearly zero or is exothermic. The stability of the combustion process in self-excited modes has also been considered theoretically and the stability bounds determined as a function of combustion parameters.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":120500553,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1985272213","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.2514\/3.4523","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"A moving object is an object of which position changes continuously in space. The movement of an object is represented by the change of its position through space and the change of its attributes over time or location. In temporal geography, the model of space-time cube (STC) represents movements as polylines time-ordered connecting spatio-temporal positions of moving objects. The space-time cubes do not represent attributes of moving objects, which change over time or along trajectories. Several authors used two cubes to represent a moving object, one for spatio-temporal positions and another for attributes changing over location. This article proposes an approach to representing multivariate data of moving objects in a Cartesian coordinate system. The main idea of this article is to join the coordinate system representing location data with the coordinate system representing attributes by sharing the time axis. In this case, attributes that are recorded by the location-based method are inferred visually through the space-time path of the movement. This approach can apply for two cases, given route and ungiven route. For movements of ungiven route, the visualization system combines a 3-dimension system representing locations with a 2-dimension system representing attributes. For movements of given route, the visualization system is a 3-dimension Cartesian coordinate system, where the trajectory is extended as an axis representing the distance from departure place to current place, two other axes indicate time and attributes. In both modes, colors are employed as dimensions to show various attributes. The two modes can be switched reciprocally in a system tracking moving objects on ground.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":17281886,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2316212174","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.7763\/IJIEE.2013.V3.318","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

We compared our results of elective David procedure via minimally invasive access to those via a full sternotomy. Methods Between 1993 and 2019, a total of 732 patients underwent a valve sparing root replacement (David) procedure. Out of these, 220 patients underwent elective David-I procedure (isolated) without any other concomitant procedures at our center. Patients were assigned to either group A (n = 42, mini-access) or group B (n = 178, full sternotomy). Results Cardiopulmonary bypass time were 188.5 \u00b1 35.4 min in group A and 149.0 (135.5\u2013167.5) in group B (p < 0.001).

In her article, \"Love, Friendship, and Power: Queen Mary II's Letters to Frances Apsley,\" Molly McClain explores the intense relationship between these two women that began in girlhood. Princess Mary and the young courtier Frances Apsley exchanged passionate letters for years, referring to each other as husband and wife. While historians of sexuality long debated whether such relationships were sexual or platonic, McClain contributes to a newer trend that explores the relationship of erotic friendship to structures of power and patronage. McClain demonstrates that this was both a deeply personal love affair, at least on an emotional, although probably not on a physical, level, and a highly stylized friendship conducted in the language of court masques, theater, and poetry. Neither woman could forget that Apsley could gain favor and patronage from her relationship with the princess. Our next two articles concern the history of crime in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. In the 1970s, the historiography of crime focused on developing statistics about the incidence and punishment of crime. The field had lost some energy, but as these articles demonstrate, it is experiencing a renaissance by combining the old empirical history with the new cultural history. The representation of crime in popular culture, for instance, can illuminate anxieties about rapid social change. The next two articles are exemplary in their careful examination and crosschecking of evidence from different sources to show how representations of crime were ideologically charged. Stephen Banks's article, \"Killing with Courtesy: The English Duelist, 1785\u20131845,\" uses statistical analysis and qualitative sources to illuminate the decline in dueling in early nineteenth-century England. In contrast, dueling persisted and indeed was reinvented in France and Germany during this same time. Using reports of dueling in newspapers, Banks demonstrates that military officers accounted for an uptick in incidence during the Napoleonic Wars, but duels declined shortly after.

+{"text":"BACKGROUND\nThe incidence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) continues to rise worldwide and despite the advances on pharmacotherapy, the etiopathogenesis of Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) remains underexplained. In this context, the migratory waves of the last decades created a challenging setting to analyze the evolution of IBD prevalence and to infer its triggering factors.\n\n\nOBJECTIVE\nOur study aimed to overview the literature regarding IBD prevalence and phenotype in first- and secondgeneration migrants.\n\n\nMETHODS\nA non-systematic review was performed following electronic (PubMed and Web of Science) and manual searches on relevant topics.\n\n\nRESULTS\nOverall, first-generation migrants tend to maintain the IBD risk of the native country. On the following generation, the risk tends to converge to that of the destination country. Earlier age at migration modulates IBD risk, suggesting that the degree of exposure to environmental and socio-economic factors can be decisive for disease progression. In general, CD needs more time to reach a disease burden similar to that of the host country, indicating that UC may be more affected by nongenetic factors and genetic-nongenetic interactions.\n\n\nCONCLUSION\nIBD phenotypes and natural history vary in migrants and according to ethnicity; however, the trends are not consensual among cohorts. Further studies are warranted to analyze the effect of environmental risk factors in different ethnic groups, providing background to move towards identification of at-risk individuals, prevention and earlier diagnosis of IBD.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":227078770,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3106112281","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.2174\/1389450121666201119142045","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Many local search engines, such as Google Maps, Yahoo! Local, Yellowpages, can benefit from the knowledge of business chains to improve the search experiences. However, business chains are rarely specified explicitly in business-listing data, but need to be inferred from the listings. While records that belong to the same chain typically share some similar values such as names and URL domains, they can also vary a lot, providing different addresses, different local phone numbers, etc. Traditional record-linage techniques, which often require high similarity between records for linking them, can fall short in this context. This paper studies identifying business listings that belong to the same chain. Our solution contains two stages: the first stage identifies cores containing business listings that are very likely to belong to the same chain; the second stage collects strong evidence from the cores and leverages it for merging more listings in the same chain, while being tolerant to differences in other values. Our algorithm is designed to ensure efficiency and scalability.

+{"text":"This study investigates the effects of public investment on private investment based on Japanese empirical data. Since public capital is accumulated in tandem with the accumulation of private capital in the long-run from a historical perspective, it is quite natural that there is a positive relationship between private investment and public investment. However, some previous studies have provided evidence for the crowding-in effect of public investment on private investment while other studies have provided evidence for the crowding-out effect. What is the reason for these inconsistent results on the crowding-in effect? In order to answer this question, we will consider the possibility of analyzing the long-run relationship between private and public investment on the stock phase rather than the flow phase. Our empirical results show that there is a cointegration relationship between private capital and public capital. Accordingly, the relationship between private and public investment should be represented by an error correction mechanism designed to achieve a long-run stock equilibrium. Estimating the error correction model, we affirm the crowding-in effect of public investment on private investment.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":151097834,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"302092957","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Study Design: A quasi-experimental study. Place and Duration of Study: The study was conducted at eye department of CMH Pano Aqil and CMH Peshawar from Jan 2004 to Jun 2006. Patients and Methods: Thirty Seven patients of HZO were prospectively evaluated for protocol defined ocular manifestations of HZO. Frequency and duration of acute ocular manifestations were analyzed and compared in between those patients who received oral acyclovir within 72 hours of rash onset (Group A, n = 19) and those who received it after 72 hours of rash onset (Group B, n = 18). Results : The most frequent acute ocular manifestations were conjunctivitis (63% in Gp A; 50% in Gp B), acute epithelial keratitis (37% in Gp A; 39% in Gp B), and anterior uveitis (11% in Gp A; 39% in Gp B). In between group difference in the frequencies of various ocular complications was not statistically significant. However, incidence of overall keratitis, anterior uveitis and glaucoma was more in group B. Moreover, mean duration of acute ocular signs was longer in group B. Conclusion: The results suggested that early initiation of oral acyclovir treatment (within 72 hours of rash onset) has a beneficial role in limiting the frequency and duration of acute ocular complications of HZO.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":251397688,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"ABSTRACT The use of left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) as a bridge-to-transplant or destination therapy in patients with end-stage heart failure has been increased during the last years. However, a potential obstacle to the success of long-term LVAD support is represented by the development of de novo aortic valve lesions leading to aortic regurgitation or, more rarely, to commissural fusion and stenosis. The paper addresses the main pathophysiological factors in the development of aortic valvular regurgitation in patients with LVAD and describes an updated review of all transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) cases to treat aortic regurgitation currently available. We also report on a case of a patient with a Jarvik 2000 requiring transcatheter aortic valve replacement for aortic regurgitation. The procedure was performed using a 31-mm CoreValve prosthesis. The first check after the positioning of the prosthetic valve revealed a good result. However, a second 10-min check, performed as per protocol at the end of the procedure, showed a sliding of the prosthetic valve downward toward the apex of the left ventricle with a severe periprosthetic regurgitation. Therefore, a second 31-mm CoreValve was deployed within the previous valve prosthesis and a 10-min check revealed a stable position and a mild residual leak. The management of LVAD patients with aortic regurgitation remains challenging. Although transcatheter techniques have demonstrated feasibility in these patients, technical adjustments and further expertise are needed to optimize these procedures.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":58471784,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2900430846","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1080\/24748706.2018.1540071","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYNCND","url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1080\/24748706.2018.1540071","status":"HYBRID"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"An overwhelming facet of race literature suggests that American society has entered an era of colorblindness; where instead of perpetuating racist ideology through blatant discriminatory legislation, racial differences are either understated or ignored entirely. These new racial processes are reflected in the policies of major social institutions, but also within popular culture. Yet, as made evident by the success of comedians such as Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle, stand-up comedy challenges acceptable racial discourse, placing race in the forefront. Comedy persists as a facet of popular culture where racial difference is made apparent, yet ironically the art of comedy is usually overlooked by sociologists. What is lacking in the humor research is an understanding of how comedy creates an environment where race can be spoken about directly, and often times harshly. Through the analysis of focus groups, this study finds evidence to suggest that racial and ethnic comedy serves to both reinforce and wane racial and ethnic stereotypes, similarities, and differences. After watching stand-up comedy clips of popular comedians, black and white respondents show both agreement and disagreement on the following: (1) the offensiveness of ethnic comedy, (2) stereotypes and perceived truths, and (3) the utility of ethnic comedy in everyday interactions. These findings are helpful in understanding how comedy serves as one of the few openly racialized facets of popular culture as well as uncovering some of the ways in which race works within the culture of a self-proclaimed colorblind society.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":147043515,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2312075974","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1111\/SOIN.12112","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Finally, it can be concluded that the magnets produced by additive manufacturing have lower (BH)max than those produced by sintering processes, which despite having high filling capacity of magnetic particles increases the magnet's magnetic capacity, limits their shape, those by manufacturing magnets can be produced with complex shapes, the heating temperature may reduce the maximum energy, and the coercive force improves it.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":210258174,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2987458524","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1177\/0892705719886894","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"In development of the automobile industry, lightweight and safety performance are contradictory, yet they are of great significance.The optimization process of auto parts is a high-dimensional optimization problem which has a variety of regulations limits and safety tests at the same time. In order to address this issue, hierarchical multi-objective optimization of a passenger car seat frame is carried out in this research. Different from previous researches, in this paper, all car seat frame parts are listed as the optimization objects and are given different optimized attributes. Meanwhile, in order to achieve the goal of effectively reducing the sample sizes of the design of experiments, hierarchical optimization is proposed, and the optimization process is divided into three stages. In each stage, components with different optimized attributes are introduced into various safety tests and then conducting design of experiments. On the other hand, through adopting the grey fuzzy logic system to assign the appropriate optimized grade, the optimization process is simplified and the errors caused by the manual selection or unified optimization levels are avoided. The proposed method is considered to be an universal approach to solve the lightweight optimization of the auto parts. Design parameters of the car seat frame before and after the hierarchical multi-objective optimization are compared, it illustrated that total mass and material cost of the seat frame are reduced by 2.3kg (28.5%) and \u024e 13.8 (32.4%) respectively. Moreover, various comparisons are carried out to verify the validity of the optimization method proposed in this paper.

In such scenarios, Home Energy Management (HEM) potentially becomes an arduous task, as it necessitates the optimal scheduling of smart appliances in order to reduce energy usage. In this research, a hybrid Harris Hawk Optimization-Sine Cosine Algorithm (hHHO-SCA) has been proposed to develop a meta-heuristic-based HEM system. The hybridization of HHO with SCA has been done to enhance the exploration and exploitation stages of HHO, hence improving its global search phase and effectively optimizing the energy usages. In addition to this, several knapsacks are utilized to guarantee that load demand for power users does not surpass a certain level during the peak hours. In terms of electricity prices and Peak to Average Ratio (PAR) reduction, the hybridization is demonstrated to be beneficial in achieving the objectives. Simulations are performed for a multi-family housing complex with a range of smart equipment. The results achieved with the proposed approach suggest that hHHO-SCA has been comparatively efficient in terms of cost reduction, and PAR, when compared to the other optimization techniques.

Methods: The present study was an observational and prospective study. 110 patients fulfill the inclusion criteria were included in study. Physician prescription records, patient's medication profile types of antibiotics prescribed were recorded and analyzed. Results: Out of 110 LRTI patients, 74 (67.27%) patients were male and 36(32.72%) patients were female. 72 patients were suffered from bronchitis while 38 patients were suffering from pneumonia. 30 patients were in the age range of 56-65 y, followed by 21 patients who were in the age range of 66-75 y. It has been observed that among all the prescribed antibiotic agent's frequency of \u03b2-lactam 199(45.53%), quinolones115 (26.27%), macrolides 53(12.12%) chloramphenicol44 (10.06%) sulphonamide 17 (3.89%) and aminoglycosides 9(2.05%) were prescribed to all the patients.

+{"text":"The article discusses a new method for calculating the effective length of bored hanging piles based on the bearing capacity of a two-layer foundation soil. This calculation problem is of particular importance when it is necessary to use piles of large length and large diameter. The calculation of a hanging pile according to the bearing capacity of the foundation soil adopted in regulatory documents is based on the occurrence of friction forces on the surface of the pile because of its movement (\"disruption\") in the ground environment. It does not correspond to the behavior of the pile during operation. In practice, the disruption of the pile is unacceptable, therefore, for the safe operation of the pile, the coefficients of the working conditions are entered into the calculation. A new approach to the calculation of hanging piles by bearing capacity in multilayer foundation soils based on the account of friction-adhesion forces on the surface of the pile is proposed. The friction-coupling forces are caused by micro-displacements of the surface layers of the pile material because of its general deformation from the compressive load on the pile. The effective length of the pile is understood to be such a length at which the bearing capacity of the soil on its surface and under the lower end of the pile is effectively used. Due to this length of the pile, an economic effect is achieved in pile foundations. The above method of calculating the bored pile can be used in the calculations of other piles by material, method of immersion and the number of layers of the foundation soil.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":256344901,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.37538\/0039-2383.2022.5.13.19","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Building resilience to natural disturbances is a key to managing forests for adaptation to climate change. To date, most climate adaptation guidance has focused on recommendations for frequent-fire forests, leaving few published guidelines for forests that naturally experience infrequent, stand-replacing wildfires. Because most such forests are inherently resilient to stand-replacing disturbances, and burn severity mosaics are largely indifferent to manipulations of stand structure (i.e., weather-driven, rather than fuel-driven fire regimes), we posit that pre-fire climate adaptation options are generally fewer in these regimes relative to others. Outside of areas of high human value, stand-scale fuel treatments commonly emphasized for other forest types would undermine many of the functions, ecosystem services, and other values for which these forests are known. For stand-replacing disturbance regimes, we propose that (1) managed wildfire use (e.g., allowing natural fires to burn under moderate conditions) can be a useful strategy as in other forest types, but likely confers fewer benefits to long-term forest resilience and climate adaptation, while carrying greater socio-ecological risks; (2) reasoned fire exclusion (i.e., the suppression component of a managed wildfire program) can be an appropriate strategy to maintain certain ecosystem conditions and services in the face of change, being more ecologically justifiable in long-interval fire regimes and producing fewer of the negative consequences than in frequent-fire regimes; (3) low-risk predisturbance adaptation options are few, but the most promising approaches emphasize fundamental conservation biology principles to create a safe operating space for the system to respond to change (e.g., maintaining heterogeneity across scales and minimizing stressors); and (4) post-disturbance conditions are the primary opportunity to implement adaptation strategies (such as protecting live tree legacies and testing new regeneration methods), providing crucial learning opportunities. This approach will provide greater context and understanding of these systems for ecologists and resource managers, stimulate future development of adaptation strategies, and illustrate why public expectations for climate adaptation in these forests will differ from those for frequent-fire forests.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":91070126,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2791272735","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1002\/ECS2.2140","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Anhydrite (CaSO4) is a chemically reactive rock\/mineral found predominantly as a constituent of carbonates. The main constituents of anhydrite are calcium and sulfate ions. The presence of anhydrite, its distribution, and the associated anhydrite-fluid interactions are important to precisely evaluate the effectiveness of oil recovery techniques. While anhydrite dissolution is the key interaction mechanism in anhydrite-rich rocks, its presence may also lead to complex rock wetting behavior. The underpinning logic is that pure anhydrite is strongly water-wet, while pure calcite and dolomite are somewhat intermediate to weakly oil-wet, thus the question remains unclear as to what the wettability would be of anhydrite and calcite, and anhydrite and dolomite combinations. Moreover, because anhydrite is negatively charged while dolomite and calcite in formation water (FW) are positively charged, depending on the mixture composition, pH, and brine type, it is not clear what the charge would be of a combination of anhydrite-calcite or anhydrite-dolomite, and, consequently, what the wetting behavior of calcite and dolomite would be due to anhydrite presence. Therefore, this research explores the effect of anhydrite mineral on carbonate wetting characteristics. The effect of mineralogical heterogeneity, specifically the presence of anhydrite minerals in calcite and dolomite wettability, is investigated across a range of scales.\n The results show that anhydrite dissolution occurs in deionized (DI) water, seawater (SW), and FW as evident from the general increase in sulfate ions concentration with increased anhydrite content in the anhydrite-carbonate system. We also found that zeta potential demonstrates an unstable colloidal system, which is indicated by near-zero and low zeta potential values (less than \u00b110) of the anhydrite-carbonate-brine systems. It also shows a nonmonotonic wetting behavior with brine salinity and pH variations. Accordingly, the zeta potential is not a general and valid candidate to justify the wettability behavior of heterogeneous carbonates. However, based on flotation and contact angle techniques of wettability estimation, anhydrite presence has the tendency to alter the wetting state of anhydrite-carbonate-brine-oil systems to more water-wet. Thus, findings from this research will provide answers to the question of how the mineralogy affects the wetting characteristics of carbonates. What will be the changes in carbonate wetting behavior with mineralogical heterogeneity? Specifically, what would be the wettability of calcite-anhydrite and dolomite-anhydrite combinations? This research therefore provides a systematic investigation of rock\/fluid interactions and their implications on wettability and ultimate recovery of oil at different range scales. The findings from this study will significantly enhance our knowledge of fluid-rock interactions, in particular, anhydrite-rich carbonate wetting behavior, thereby reducing the uncertainties associated with laboratory-scale predictions and oil recovery planning.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":256753027,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.2118\/214324-pa","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Action potential\u2013dependent transmission was suppressed with tetrodotoxin. Results:Sevoflurane at 5% (measured concentration in the recording chamber, 0.5 mm) induced an early-phase inward current in most of LC neurons in a robust manner, which significantly increased the firing frequency in the absence of tetrodotoxin under current clamp recording. Preadministration of dexmedetomidine (1\u20133 nm) occluded this increase in firing frequency with sevoflurane. This inward current was inhibited by a gap junction inhibitor carbenoxolone and was not observed with nonvolatile general anesthetics and in non-LC neurons examined. Conclusions:The excitatory current activated by sevoflurane in LC neurons, likely to be mediated by gap junction\u2013related mechanisms, might be one of the potential cellular mechanisms underlying paradoxical excitatory effect of sevoflurane.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":24351362,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1975749330","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1097\/01.anes.0000291453.78823.f4","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/pubs.asahq.org\/anesthesiology\/article-pdf\/107\/6\/992\/655397\/0000542-200712000-00019.pdf","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Software reading is defined as the process by which a developer gains an understanding of the information encoded in a work product sufficient to accomplish a particular task. Software reading is an important skill in software development, occurring potentially many times throughout a system's life cycle, applied to a number of different work products for a number of different tasks. One example of a process that supports software reading is stepwise abstraction, a procedure by which sequences of steps in an algorithmic document are abstracted to descriptions of functionality at various levels. Stepwise abstraction helps a developer to understand a code document in order to complete a particular task, namely, checking whether it conforms to the specifications set for it. \n \n \n \nIn the current state of the practice, support for software reading is often not available or not used; developers may be taught how to write intermediate work products but rarely how to read and analyze them effectively. Instead, developers rely on ad hoc methods or checklists to analyze documents. In an ad hoc, or unstructured, reading process, the reader is not given direction on how to read, and The practical result is that software document reviewers build up skills in document understanding slowly, based on individual experiences acquired over time. Without a standardized process, training and skill development are difficult, individual practices vary greatly, and controlled improvement is not possible. \n \n \n \nSoftware reading techniques address these problems. A software reading technique is a series of steps for the individual analysis of a textual software product to achieve the understanding needed for a particular task. This definition has three main parts. They are individual analysis, series of steps, and a particular task. A reading technique is focussed on some specific task.

Risk factors such as hypertension, obesity, and elevated cholesterol can be used as predictors in the prevention and intervention of CVD. Social media (SM) has become a popular platform for delivering health and wellness information. The aims of this study were to examine the utility of nutrition education through a dedicated social media platform (Instagram) for supporting and enhancing nutrition knowledge and in reducing CVD risk factors amongst firefighters.\nMethods: \u00a0In a pilot study, firefighters (n=53) were exposed to a private IG account for 6 weeks. The intervention was delivering daily evidence-based nutrition information via the SM platform. A validated Questionnaire (ANSKQ) was administered before and after the 6-week intervention period. Nutrition knowledge, anthropometric and vitals data were collected pre-post intervention.\nResults: Data analysis is presented as the mean, \u00b1 SD, p<0.05 was deemed significant. ANSKQ results were evaluated by total, general and sports nutrition knowledge scores. The total mean score significantly increased from 46% \u00b1 3.27 to 52% \u00b1 13.43 (p<0.0017). A 5% increase in GNK scores was also observed over the study period [60% \u00b1 15.35 to 65% \u00b1 19.83 (p<0.04409)].

+{"text":"High turn-down operating of heavy-duty gas turbines in modern Combined Cycle Plants requires a highly efficient secondary air system to ensure the proper supply of cooling and sealing air. Thus, accurate performance prediction of secondary flows in the complete range of operating conditions is crucial.The paper gives an overview of the secondary air system of Ansaldo F-class AEx4.3A gas turbines. Focus of the work is a procedure to calculate the cooling flows, which allows investigating both the interaction between cooled rows and additional secondary flows (sealing and leakage air) and the influence on gas turbine performance. The procedure is based on a fluid-network solver modelling the engine secondary air system. Parametric curves implemented into the network model give the consumption of cooling air of blades and vanes. Performances of blade cooling systems based on different cooling technology are presented. Variations of secondary air flows in function of load and\/or ambient conditions are discussed and justified.The effect of secondary air reduction is investigated in details showing the relationship between the position, along the gas path, of the upgrade and the increasing of engine performance. In particular, a section of the paper describes the application of a consistent and straightforward technique, based on an exergy analysis, to estimate the effect of major modifications to the air system on overall engine performance. A set of models for the different factors of cooling loss is presented and sample calculations are used to illustrate the splitting and magnitude of losses.

+{"text":"Objectives : To assess the occurrence of non-motor features and symptom progression in patients with uncertain Parkinsonism and Scans Without Evidence of Dopaminergic Deficit (SWEDDs), patients with early Parkinson's disease (PD), and healthy controls. Methods : Non-motor data for 62 patients with SWEDDs, a cross-matched sample of PD patients (n=62) and a population of healthy controls (n=195) were accessed from the Parkinson's Progressive Marker's Initiative (PPMI). Data included scores from seven validated clinical questionnaires examining a range of non-motor features including sleepiness, geriatric depression, REM sleep behaviour, State-Trait anxiety, autonomic function and olfactory function. All non-motor symptoms were compared among subjects at baseline, one year and two years of follow up. Results : SWEDDs had more excessive daytime sleepiness than both PD and healthy subjects (p value <0.001) and also had worse cardiovascular and thermoregulatory dysfunction (p value = 0.031 and p value = 0.019) compared to PD. SWEDDs had a significantly better sense of smell than PD patients (p value <0.001) but worse olfaction than healthy controls (p value = 0.005). There was a positive correlation between sleepiness and autonomic dysfunction in SWEDDs patients (Spearman's Rank R=0.502 p<0.001). Follow up analysis of patient groups showed stable non-motor phenotypes with no significant fluctuation in questionnaire scoring over two years. Conclusion : At an early symptomatic stage, SWEDDs exhibit non-motor features that differ from PD patients involving cardiovascular, olfactory, sleep and thermoregulatory function. Our results suggest that the use of questionnaires to identify non-motor symptoms may help differentiate SWEDDs from PD patients at the time of diagnosis.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":12014087,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"INTRODUCTION: Oncolytic viruses selectively replicate in tumor cells, and may attract immune cells into the microenvironment to stimulate a systemic antitumor response. We have shown efficacy of oncolytic measles virus (MV) against medulloblastoma (MB) in preclinical models. To study the effect of immune system on MV therapy, we have developed the first immunocompetent MV-sensitive murine model of Group 3 MB (CSCG model) and showed that intratumoral MV treatment of tumor-bearing mice significantly prolonged survival. Herein, we study the interaction of MV therapy and tumor immune microenvironment in this model. METHODS: Naive and MV-preimmunized mice were injected with 200,000 CSCG tumor cells in caudate putamen and tumor-bearing mice were treated identically with intratumoral MV injections (n=5 per group). Tumor growth was monitored by bioluminescence imaging and RT-PCR was performed to assess infiltrating CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in MV-treated and untreated control tumors. RESULTS: RT-PCR of untreated tumors shows an average of 43.4 \u00b11.45-fold and 13.24 \u00b11.34-fold increase in infiltrating CD8+T cells and CD4+T cells, respectively, compared to normal brain (n=3). Tumors that responded to MV therapy, but recurred had a dramatic decrease in infiltrating CD8+T cells (2.66 \u00b10.8-fold higher than normal brain). No significant difference in survival was observed between MV-naive and MV-immunized mice (p= 0.773), indicating that anti-measles immunity does not affect MV efficacy, an important point given that almost all patients have been vaccinated with MV. Long-term survivors, both na\u00efve and MV-immune, remained tumor-free for at least 150 days post treatment. These mice (n=3) were re-challenged with a 3-fold higher number of tumor cells than the original injection, but tumor failed to grow for at least 50 days post-injection. CONCLUSION: This finding strongly suggests MV treatment induces anti-tumor immunity. Ongoing studies are being performed to dissect this immune response and to explore the possibility of enhancing it.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":181717923,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2945983898","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1093\/NEUONC\/NOZ036.223","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Moreover, altered behavior in migration and proliferation as well as resistance to apoptosis has been observed in IPAH pericytes. The molecular mechanisms leading to the named physiological changes are still sparingly researched. To explore the possible cause of seen pathology, we extracted pericytes from IPAH- and healthy donor lung tissue and did a gene analysis using a microarray. The test showed that the expression of PDK-4, an enzyme involved in the regulation of glucose metabolism, was highly upregulated. We hypothesized that the observed behavioral changes in IPAH-pericytes were caused by an inhibited glucose shift into the mitochondria. Our further tests showed an increased membrane potential and lowered reactive-oxygen-species-levels in IPAH pericytes. These results could be explained by the observed PDK4-upregulation. Following investigation could target the regulation of PDK-4 and further provide new therapeutic approaches in PAH-treatment.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":198303292,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2955629353","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Cancer is an illness as old as life on our planet. Proof of this statement are the tumours found in the bones of dinosaur fossils or in the human mummies of Peru and Egypt. Documents dating from 2,000 to 1,500 BC like the Ramayana from India or the Papiro from Egypt Ebers, refer to this illness. It's name cancer, was inspired by the observing of breast tumours, which as they grow take on the shape of a crab (Galeno, 131-203 AC in his treatise Definitions Medicae). It can be said that from the beginning of life on our planet human beings have been exposed to physical, chemical and biological agents which are potentially canceriginous to which nowadays we can add some other synthetic products capable of causing cancer. IS CANCER ONE OR MANY ILLNESSES? Cancer involves a great variety of illnesses with a common factor: the uncontrolled development of cells. Starting from the analysis of epidemiological studies done in the USA we have reached the conclusion that more than 80 por 100 of deaths caused by cancer are related to environmental factors. Among them smoking stands out with 335, followed by alcohol with 3% and diet 33%. It can be said that cancer is an illness which could be prevented by taking measures related to these factors. To study in depth scientific knowledge about the way diet and cancer are related would require extensive epidemiological studies together with important laboratory studies including biochemical markers and genetic susceptabilities. A suitable diet combined with physical exercise, periodic controls an a healthy life style could be of great preventive importance, and in the case of lung cancer, the priority is, of course, giving up smoking. It must be taken into account that ingestion involves the interaction of its components and other genetic and environmental factors.

The formulation available in literature is numerically implemented within the FE software Abaqus\u00a9 through specific user subroutines, and model predictions are compared with the already available single-dispersion-model results. The influence of each dispersion parameter on the macroscopic behaviour is analysed and discussed.

One approach to solve this problem is to develop a quantitative CK19 RT\u2010PCR assay and to introduce a cut\u2010off value which can distinguish between illegitimate expression and cancer\u2010specific expression levels.

In this study, the DNA barcodes were tested to discriminate among the species of the Quercus genus in Lam Dong province.

Of which, the new sequences in this study were sequenced from six species and one unknown species of Quercus, the rest was retrieved from GenBank. The BLAST, neighbor-joining, and Bayesian methods were employed to examine species discrimination success. The results showed that ITS was an efficient single-locus barcode for Quercus species by yielding the highest rate of universality as well as the best discriminatory and authentication power among the barcodes examined. In addition, the combination of ITS+matK+rbcL achieved the highest species discrimination.

+{"text":"For the past 15 years here has been a strong consensus within the international scientific community in favor of sending a network of geophysical observatories to Mars. These landers would probe the interior of the planet through seismic monitoring, magnetic sounding, and measurements of its rotational dynamics. They would study the global circulation and regional dynamics of the atmosphere and through imaging would reveal the geology of a host of new places on the surface. The enthusiasm for this endeavor has been manifested in a number of mission studies, includiung MESUR Network, MarsNet and InterMarsNet. At the beginning of the 21st century the goal was close to being realized with the NetLander mission, which was sponsored by a broad consortium of nations in Europa and America. Unfortunately, budget difficulties and programmatic conflicts at CNES and NASA resulted in recent cancellation. However the scientific priorities for understanding the origin, evolution, environment and habitat of Mars remain, and a geophysical network is clearly required to make the measurements necessary to address these questions. A large group of scientists remain committed to goal of deploying an international Geoscience Observatory on Mars, whose data would be available to the world science community, and we welcome the participation of all who share this aim. To this end, we are exploring all international options, including ESA's Aurora program, the Scout programm of NASA's Mars Exploration Program, and NASA's new exploration initiatives.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":129209289,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1515898752","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Due to the reduced amount of computation required for computing BASIS descriptors, reduced descriptor size, and the ability to create the descriptors without the use of a floating point, this approach is an excellent candidate for FPGA hardware implementation. The bit-level-accurate BASIS descriptor was tested on a dataset of real aerial images with the task of calculating a frame-to-frame homography and compared to software versions of scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT) and speeded-up robust features (SURF). Experimental results show that the BASIS descriptor outperforms SIFT and performs comparably to SURF on frame-to-frame aerial feature point matching.

+{"text":"To the Editor: We thank Drs. Tong and Uyl-de Groot for their interest in our study, which is focused on the cost-effectiveness of premedication prior to PEG-asparaginase therapy.1 As identified, this is not the first costeffectiveness analysis related to the use of asparaginase products. However, our primary aim differs from that of prior publications. The comparative analysis of Tong et al. focused on the costs associatedwith different asparaginase products used as first-line therapy in patients with leukemia.2 In contrast, we assumed a uniform approach in which all children are initially treated with PEG-asparaginase (followed by Erwinia for further doses if not tolerated). Our primary aim was to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of premedication prior to asparaginase rather than the asparaginase formulation itself.1 Furthermore, these studies differ in time frameof outcomesmeasured.Weutilized a5-year period to capture long-term differences between model arms such as relapse,whereas Tong et al. utilized a simple decision treemodel, which limited follow-up to the completion of asparaginase therapy.2 Weappreciate the opportunity to address concerns that costs in our study were defined to a limited degree, with no data on resource use between standard risk (SR) and high risk (HR) subgroups. The use of total costs is consistent with the gross-costing approach.3 A primary advantage in this approach is that costs are broadly applicable despite geographic and institutional variation in costs. For example, as there is no agreed upon standard of care for relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), the cost of relapse therapy varies widely, and a microcosting approach with detailed catalog of resources utilized during treatment would be impractical. No data were provided regarding differences in resource use between SR and HR subgroups as only costs differing between comparator arms require inclusion in the analysis. Comparison groups under evaluation were SR patients receiving premedication versus SR patients not and HR patients receiving premedication versus HR patients not. Differences in utilization between SR andHR patients would be expected to apply equally to patients receiving premedication and not within each subgroup, and therefore not impact overall results. We recognize there are limitations in our approach intrinsic to costeffectiveness analysis. Certainly, the requirements of caring for a child with leukemia may be associated with a decrease in working hours or loss of employment.4,5 However, we were required to make use of several assumptions to complete our evaluation, which must then be interpreted in the context of an individual patient. We assumed the average caregiver followed an 8-h working day when accounting for loss of productivity, consistent with the average American workday as reported by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics.6 Lastly, we did not account for differences in treatment duration between male and female patients as the treatment protocols that formed the basis for our model, AALL1731 and AALL1732, have removed any difference inmaintenance duration between genders. In conclusion, we hope that our response has provided transparency so that the practicing physician may recognize the contexts in which these results may be applied to their patient population.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":247713611,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1002\/pbc.29694","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

This variability is a major drawback in latent print dating issues. This study aimed, therefore, at the definition of a parameter that is less variable from print to print, using a ratio of peak area of a target compound degrading over time divided by the summed area of peaks of more stable compounds also found in latent print residues.Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC\/MS) analysis of the initial lipid composition of latent prints identifies four main classes of compounds that can be used in the definition of an aging parameter: fatty acids, sterols, sterol precursors, and wax esters (WEs). Although the entities composing the first three groups are quite well known, those composing WEs are poorly reported. Therefore, the first step of the present work was to identify WE compounds present in latent print residues deposited by different donors. Of 29 WEs recorded in the chromatograms, seven were observed in the majority of samples.The identified WE compounds were subsequently used in the definition of ratios in combination with squalene and cholesterol to reduce the variability of the initial composition between latent print residues from different persons and more particularly from the same person.

This study aimed to assess the effect of three polishing systems on porcelain surface roughness after orthodontic bracket debonding. Materials and Methods: Thirty porcelain blocks were divided into three groups. Surface roughness of the samples was first measured using atomic force microscopy (AFM) and recorded as baseline. Orthodontic brackets were bonded to blocks by composite resin. After bracket debonding, resin remnants were removed by tungsten carbide bur. The blocks were then polished with Sof-Lex discs, Meisinger, and Jota porcelain polishing kit. Surface roughness was measured again using AFM. The Shapiro\u2013Wilk test, one-way ANOVA, and Tukey's post hoc test were used for data analysis through SPSS version 18.0. Level of significance was set at 5%. Results: The mean change in surface roughness after polishing with Jota kit (56.6 nm) was significantly greater than that compared to Sof-Lex discs (10.7 nm) (P = 0.003) and Meisinger kit (26.6 nm) (P = 0.024). The mean change in surface roughness was not significantly different between Sof-Lex and Meisinger groups. Surface roughness significantly increased in all three groups (P < 0.05).

+{"text":"Ninety-six patients with SAH were evaluated with CT perfusion for cortical deficits and these were correlated with primary (permanent neurologic deficits and infarctions) and secondary (delayed cerebral ischemia manifesting as clinical deterioration) outcome measures. One-third of patients developed permanent neurologic deficits (78% showed CT perfusion defects), infarctions developed in 18% (88% had perfusion defects), and delayed cerebral ischemia was found in 50% (81% had perfusion defects). The most common perfusion abnormalities were reduced CBF and prolonged MTT. BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: DCI is a serious complication following aneurysmal SAH and remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Our aim was to evaluate CTP in aneurysmal SAH by using outcome measures of DCI. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This was a retrospective study of consecutive patients with SAH enrolled in a prospective institutional review board\u2013approved clinical accuracy trial. Qualitative CTP deficits were determined by 2 neuroradiologists blinded to clinical and imaging data. Quantitative CTP was performed by using a standardized protocol with region-of-interest placement sampling of the cortex. Primary outcome measures were permanent neurologic deficits and infarction. The secondary outcome measure was DCI, defined as clinical deterioration. CTP test characteristics (95% CI) were determined for each outcome measure. Statistical significance was calculated by using the Fisher exact and Student t tests. ROC curves were generated to determine accuracy and threshold analysis. RESULTS: Ninety-six patients were included. Permanent neurologic deficits developed in 33% (32\/96). CTP deficits were seen in 78% (25\/32) of those who developed permanent neurologic deficits and 34% (22\/64) of those without (P < .0001). CTP deficits had 78% (61%\u201389%) sensitivity, 66% (53%\u201376%) specificity, and 53% (39%\u201367%) positive and 86% (73%\u201393%) negative predictive values. Infarction occurred in 18% (17\/96). CTP deficits were seen in 88% (15\/17) of those who developed infarction and 41% (32\/79) of those without (P = .0004). CTP deficits had an 88% (66%\u201397%) sensitivity, 59% (48%\u201370%) specificity, and 32% (20%\u201346%) positive and 96% (86%\u201399%) negative predictive values. DCI was diagnosed in 50% (48\/96). CTP deficits were seen in 81% (39\/48) of patients with DCI and in 17% (8\/48) of those without (P < .0001). CTP deficits had 81% (68%\u201390%) sensitivity, 83% (70%\u201391%) specificity, and 83% (70%\u201391%) positive and 82% (69%\u201390%) negative predictive values. Quantitative CTP revealed significantly reduced CBF and prolonged MTT for DCI, permanent neurologic deficits, and infarction. ROC analysis showed that CBF and MTT had the highest accuracy.

+{"text":"Abstract A model has been developed describing the growth of pores in a dendritic network. It is assumed that the growing pores originate from pores (bubbles) that preexist in the melt and contain soluble and insoluble gases. The growth of an individual pore is tracked in the model as the cellular\/dendritic solidification front passes. As long as the pore surface is not in contact with the solid phase, the pore maintains its spherical shape during cooling\/solidification. When the pore size reaches the width of the interdendritic\/intercellular channel, it assumes the shape of the channel, pushing the remaining liquid out. In a systematic study, the initial conditions for the numerical calculations are varied in order to investigate the influence of different processing parameters on final porosity and length of pores. Interfacial tension and initial pore size are shown to change the simulation results only sligthly. Solidification shrinkage is shown to have no effect on amount and shape of micropores. With decreasing temperature gradient, porosity increases drastically. Pore elongation is mainly a function of temperature gradient and density of pre-existing pores: pronounced temperature gradients and low initial pore density favour the formation of highly elongated pores.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":136935726,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1437673138","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3139\/ijmr-2001-0033","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Nuclear receptor coactivator PBP (peroxisome proliferator\u2010activated receptor (PPAR)\u2010binding protein) functions as an anchor for mediator multisubunit cofactor transcription complex. Absence of PBP in hepatocytes affects the functions of xenobiotic sensing nuclear receptors, PPAR\u03b1 and CAR. Using PBP liver conditional null (PBPLiv\u2212\/\u2212) mice, we have now examined the role of PBP in hepatocyte size and hepatocellular proliferation induced by partial hepatectomy (PH) and by CAR ligand, 1, 4\u2010bis [2\u2010(3, 5\u2010dichoropyridyloxy)] benzene (TCPOBOP). Hepatocyte size was smaller in PBP deleted livers as compared to controls. PBP gene deletion in liver affected the expression of several genes as assessed by gene expression profiling and quantitative PCR. Regeneration of liver was markedly impaired in the PBPLiv\u2212\/\u2212 mouse following PH as assessed by BrdUrd incorporation. Increase in IGFBP1 mRNA was modest in PBPLiv\u2212\/\u2212 mouse liver by 4 h after PH. Expression of several cell cycle genes was also reduced in PBPLiv\u2212\/\u2212 mouse liver after PH as compared to wild type controls. A modest increase in hepatic steatosis was noted in PBPLiv\u2212\/\u2212 mice 36 h post PH suggesting possible reduction in PPAR\u03b1 dependent induction of fatty acid oxidation. TCPOBOP failed to induce liver cell proliferation in PBPLiv\u2212\/\u2212 mouse confirming that PBP deletion affects nuclear receptor CAR function. We conclude that transcription coactivator PBP\/MED1 plays a significant role in the maintenance of hepatocyte size and hepatocellular regeneration possibly by influencing many transcriptional pathways.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":82420870,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"999366760","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1096\/fasebj.20.5.A1380","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Mutations in 4 genes, that is, TOR1A, THAP1, ANO3, and GNAL, have been unequivocally shown to cause autosomaldominant isolated forms of dystonia (DYT1, -6, -24, and 25, respectively), whereas several other genes still await independent confirmation. Recently, mutations in the HPCA gene have been identified as the first likely cause of HPCA-related autosomal recessive (AR) isolated dystonia (MIM 224500). However, to date, only mutations in the 2 initially reported pedigrees have been found. To this end, we sequenced the coding region of HPCA in a large group of TOR1A mutationnegative patients from Serbia. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Clinical Center of Serbia, and all patients gave informed consent. We selected only the patients with possible AR dystonia, that is, with a disease inheritance mode that was not incompatible with the AR pattern. This study comprised 435 patients with isolated and 70 individuals with combined or paroxysmal dystonia, diagnosed according to current criteria. The mean age at onset was 35.7 6 18.0 years (range, 2-77 years). Among them, 178 patients were 30 years at disease onset, of whom 107 were 20 years at the time. Three cases had a positive family history possibly consistent with a recessive inheritance (affected siblings only). None of the cervical dystonia patients had pathogenic changes in THAP1 or GNAL. None of the individuals suffering from dystonia combined with myoclonus or parkinsonism had mutations in SGCE or GCH1, respectively. Also, none of the paroxysmal dystonia patients had mutations in PRRT2, PNKD, or GLUT1. Sequence analysis of the HPCA gene in 505 patients did not reveal variants in the coding regions of HPCA. Only 3 previously reported noncoding variants in 4 patients were detected. A heterozygous 50UTR variant, c.-5C>T (rs374308896), was found in 1 patient, 2 patients harbored a small deletion, c.48551_485-31del (rs376843764), in intron 3, and another variant in intron 3, c.484143_484144insTCCC (rs767409251), was detected in a single patient. Nevertheless, considering the relative rarity of the disorder, it is not surprising that we did not detect any pathogenic changes in HPCA in our large group of patients. As a caveat, none of our patients belonged to a kindred with an unequivocally AR mode of inheritance. Rather, we included all subjects with either no family history or a family history of affected siblings only, both of which could be indicative of AR mode inheritance. Also, we had no cases with reported consanguinity. In conclusion, to our knowledge, this is the first study aiming to estimate the frequency of HPCA mutations among dystonia patients from a particular European population. Our findings are in line with the assumption that HPCArelated AR isolated dystonia is an extremely rare cause of dystonia. Genetic screening of selected dystonia cohorts (families with highly suggestive AR inheritance and patients from populations with high rates of consanguinity) is needed to improve our insight into HPCA-related dystonia prevalence and to eventually better define its clinical and mutational phenotype.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":206248874,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2346608155","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1002\/mds.26634","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"In this paper, we propose a novel approach to detect abrupt camera viewpoint changes in edited video materials (movies, TV shows), to improve human activity recognition. The motivation for this work lies in the difficulty of correctly identifying actions in case of camera motion and viewpoint changes, because of the abrupt variations in the appearance model of the scene, which significantly deteriorate the continuity of the spatio-temporal features under investigation. To this aim, we compute the motion interchange pattern (MIP) for each pixel in a video, from which a feature descriptor is constructed for the entire frame. The change in camera viewpoint is achieved through the one-class SVM. We apply our detector on the TV human interaction dataset (TVHI). The experimental results show that our approach can distinguish the abrupt changes with a high accuracy, allowing for an improvement also in the activity recognition performance.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":16302515,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1995569050","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/ICIP.2014.7025515","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Evidence suggests multiple and varied explanations for this, including organisational, social and personal barriers. That evidence has not focused on first-person experiences which may provide a depth of understanding and explanation of the work-related experiences of people with IDD. Method A hermeneutic phenomenological approach and an exploratory research method of a 'creative collaborative partnership' was adopted to illuminate the work-related experiences of six people with a mild IDD. Findings Six work stories composed of narratives and visual images were collaboratively created revealing a complex range of positive and negative experiences and perspectives of paid work. Five collective narrative frames emerged: the quest 'to do', navigating bureaucratic seas, finding a good fit, forging of identity and finding both friend and foe. Conclusion The collaborators' stories highlighted that individuals supporting people with IDD towards or in work, including occupational therapists, need to adopt a nuanced systemic perspective of the context surrounding the person. This includes identifying allies and allowing people with IDD to decide how (if at all) they describe their IDD status to others as they establish their worker identity.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":253239202,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1177\/03080226221089848","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/cris.brighton.ac.uk\/ws\/files\/32293687\/BJOT_LD_and_Work_acc_22.pdf","status":"GREEN"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The effect of vertical riser support system on the dynamic behaviour of a classical spar platform is investigated. Spar platform generally uses buoyancy-can riser support system, but as water depth gets deeper the alternative riser support system is required due to safety and cost issues. The alternative riser support system is to hang risers off the spar platform using pneumatic cylinders rather than the buoyancy-can. The existing numerical model for hull\/mooring\/riser coupled dynamics analysis treats riser as an elastic rod truncated at the keel (truncated riser model), thus, in this model, the effect of riser support system can not be modeled correctly. Due to this reason, the truncated riser model tends to overestimate the spar pitch and heave motion. To evaluate more realistic global spar motion, mechanical coupling among risers, guide frames and support cylinders inside of spar moon-pool should be modeled. In the newly developed model, the risers are extended through the moon-pool by using nonlinear finite element methods with realistic boundary condition at multiple guide frames. In the simulation, the vertical tension from pneumatic cylinders is modeled by using ideal-gas equation and the vertical tension from buoyancy-cans is modeled as constant top tension. The different dynamic characteristics between buoyancy-can riser support system and pneumatic riser support system are extensively studied. The alternative riser support system tends to increase spar heave motion and needs damper system to reduce the spar heave motion.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":112196549,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2240360329","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Both technical and economic reasons suggest to join dissimilar metals, benefiting from the specific properties of each material in order to perform flexible design. Adhesive bonding and mechanical joining have been traditionally used although adhesives fail to be effective in high-temperature environments and mechanical joining are not adequate for leak-tight joints. Friction stir welding is a valid alternative, even being difficult to perform for specific joint geometries and thin plates. The attention has therefore been shifted to laser welding. Interest has been shown in welding titanium to aluminum, especially in the aviation industry, in order to benefit from both corrosive resistance and strength properties of the former, and low weight and cost of the latter. Titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V and aluminum alloy 2024 are considered in this work, being them among the most common ones in aerospace and automotive industries. Laser welding is thought to be particularly useful in reducing the heat affected zones and providing deep penetrative beads. Nevertheless, many challenges arise in welding dissimilar metals and the aim is further complicated considering the specific features of the alloys in exam, being them susceptible to oxidation on the upper surface and porosity formation in the fused zone. As many variables are involved, a systematic approach is used to perform the process and to characterize the beads referring to their shape and mechanical features, since a mixture of phases and structures is formed in the fused zone after recrystallization.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":121531424,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2022716580","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1117\/12.2004681","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Activity of the lung kininases was determined by perfusion of the pulmonary vessels with a solution of bradykinin and determination of its concentration in the perfusion fluid draining from the lungs [8], and also on the basis of the hypotensive action of bradykinin, when injected separately into the systemic and pulmonary circulations [4]. A model of acute pneumonia was formed by Dubilei's method, by unilateral vagotomy and insertion of an infected length of catgut into the lumen of the trachea through a microtracheostomy [7]. A chronic form of disease was obtained by a modification of the method in [i]. The diagnosis was confirmed clinically and roentgenologically, and later, histologically. Since in this model of experimental pneumonia an important role is played by blockade of vagus nerve influences (unilateral vagotomy) on the lungs (which substantially modifies metabolic processes in them), the regulatory role of the vagus nerves on kinln formation and kinin destruction was investigated initially by studying KKS activity l0 min and 2 h after vagotomy and also in the first minute after electrical stimulation of the peripheral ends of the divided vagus nerves in vagotomized animals (ESU-I electrical stimulator, parameters of stimulation: I0 V, 0.5 msec, 20 Hz). EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS It will be clear from Table i that after division of the vagus nerves kallikrein activity was increased in the experimental animals, whereas concentrations of kininogen and kallikrein inhibitors were reduced, evidence of activation of kinln formation [9], but the increase in the prekallikrein concentration which was found often accompanies intensification of kinln formation [5]. Similar changes also were observed 2 h after vagotomy. The general pattern of changes in components of the KKS observed after electrical stimulation of the vagus nerves pointed to a decrease in kinin forming activity compared with the changes after vagotomy.

+{"text":"The deposition situation of 1800 forest monitoring sites in Germany for the year 1989 could be explained by four factors (three, if the sea salt impact is excluded) with the help of a factor analysis. The factors were grouped into five deposition types with typical compounds and regional patterns. The results of the correlation analysis between N deposition components and parameters describing the N status of 51 beech forests revealed that the human induced increase of N input into forest ecosystems significantly influences important ecosystem parameters. However, not all of the observed effects can be interpreted as cause\u2010and\u2010effect relationships because of the lack of detailed data, for example, on soil solution and especially time series, but there are some clear trends. A significant impact of N deposition on low buffered beech forests could be detected. High N deposition corresponds with higher amounts of organic matter, higher C and N stocks in the organic layer as well as increased C\/N ratios. Beech trees on sites with low Ntotal deposition have significant lower N content in their leaves. These findings indicate a higher N saturation of low buffered beech forest sites due to high N depositions. The study revealed a strong demand for time series data on intensive monitoring plots in beech forests. The findings should be further evaluated taking into account the trend towards declining deposition rates.

A correlation value of 0.731 was observed, which implies a high degree of correlation exists between the length and weight of the fishes. The parabolic regression was found to be W = 0.0331L 2.873, while the regression equation was Log W=52.17+4.720 logL. It was observed that the cube law was deviated and with increasing length the condition factor (K) also was found to be decreasing continuously. This indicates the response shown by the fish to the changing environmental conditions of selected water body. The study of fishery biology demands the knowledge of length and weight relationship. Lecren (1951) explained in it with two objectives-a mathematical model may be described between the two parameters -length and weight, so that one parameter may be derived from the other (Beverton and Holt 1957; Wooton 1990), the second objective is the deviation from the expected weight for length of a single fish or a group of fishes can be taken as a sign of fat ness or the extent of health condition of a fish which may be computed.

Rainfall fluctuations in these regions are associated with clear signatures in tropical and extratropical atmospheric circulation that are approximately symmetric about the Equator in boreal winter. We show how these patterns can be explained as steady poleward propagating linear Rossby waves emanating from just a few key source regions. These wave source 'hotspots' become more or less active as tropical rainfall varies from winter to winter but they do not change position. Finally, we show that predicted tropical rainfall explains a highly significant fraction of the predicted year\u2010to\u2010year variation of the winter North Atlantic Oscillation.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":125279509,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2509901096","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1002\/qj.2910","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/qj.2910","status":"HYBRID"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

METHODS: Thirty-five healthy national professional young man basketball athletes were randomly divided into 2 groups. One group (n=15, 15.2\u00b11.0 years old) were supplemented ferrous sulfate 325 mg\/d per person, 10 d, while the other group (n=20, 15.9\u00b11.9 years old) as a control group were not. Then, RBC, hematocrit (Hct), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), red cell distribution width (RDW), hemoglobin (Hb) concentration, mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) and PI concentration were detected during the periods of both the basic status and the training status. RESULTS: Compared with the levels of the basic status, there were no significant changes in RBC, Hct, MCV, RDW, Hb concentration, MCH and MCHC after 2 h train (P0.05) in both groups. PI concentration was significantly deceased in the athletes without ferrous supplement after train (P0.01), meanwhile, it was significantly increased in the ones with ferrous supplement (P0.05). CONCLUSION: Ferrous supplement in the short term exerts little effect on RBC and related parameters except PI concentration, which indicates the short-term ferrous supplement is of little value for young man basketball athletes.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":76513017,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2374854707","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

While the government is exploring ways to make the whole process of voting easier (with ideas such as voting over the telephone and the Internet) it may be failing to tackle the real problem. The main challenge is that many young people appear to find the business of politics uninviting and irrelevant to their everyday lives. This paper examines data derived from a nationwide survey of 705 attainers \u2013 young people who are eligible to vote for the first-time and who have only limited experience of formal politics. The findings from the study reveal that these young people are not as apathetic when it comes to \"Politics\" as conventional wisdom would have us believe.

At times his account also risks reifying the dichotomy between German and Jewish identities, overlooking the efforts of so many Jewish Germans to harmonize their Jewish faith, heritage, or community belonging with a commitment to German culture and society, a dynamic which animates so much of German-Jewish history from the eighteenth through the twentieth centuries.

+{"text":"Abstract Potential roles for the single sulfhydryl group of the catalytic subunit of aspartate transcarbamylase from Escherichia coli have been investigated by means of chemical modification. The S-cyano and S-methyl derivatives are highly active and recombine normally with the zinc regulatory subunit. The derivatives of native enzyme formed in this way are fully responsive to homotropic and heterotropic allosteric effectors and have pH-activity curves indistinguishable from that of unmodified native enzyme. Therefore, despite strong evidence that the\u2014SH group is at the active site, its integrity is not necessary for activity or for allosteric function. However, modifications which lead to negatively charged derivatives of the\u2014SH group do result in inactivation. The reason for such loss of activity was investigated with a sulfonate derivative prepared by rapid and highly specific oxidation of the native enzyme with KMnO4. Carbamyl phosphate and the transition state analog N-(phosphonacetyl)-l-aspartate bind well to the sulfonate derivative, but the affinity of this derivative for succinate (in the presence of carbamyl-P) is much reduced when compared to that of native enzyme. The newly introduced negative charge apparently inactivates by greatly reducing the affinity of the active site for the substrate l-aspartate. The trimeric catalytic subunit is inactive after modification of the 3 identical \u2014SH groups by dithionitrobenzoate, and the derivative is capable of binding tightly only 1 eq of either carbamyl-P or N-(phosphonacetyl)-l-aspartate per trimer, demonstrating a strong interaction among the three active sites of the isolated subunit. Furthermore, the thionitrobenzoate derivative of native aspartate transcarbamylase correspondingly binds only about 2 molecules of N-(phosphonacetyl)-l-aspartate per six active sites and binds them with strong positive cooperativity, suggesting that in unmodified native enzyme positive cooperativity is due at least in part to an interaction between the two catalytic trimers. If catalytic subunit is combined with a limiting amount of zinc regulatory subunit, a new species deficient in regulatory subunit is formed, with altered allosteric properties.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":34055708,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1549684468","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Various 0.45 cm2 dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) devices of glass\/FTO\/blocking layer\/TiO2\/dye\/electrolyte\/nano-thick Pt\/glass structure were prepared by varying the Pt layer thickness from 10 to 100 nm. The phase and roughness of Pt layers were examined using XRD and AFM measurements. The catalytic activity of Pt was checked by cyclic voltammetry. The sheet resistance and interface resistance of Pt were examined using four point probe and impedance measurements. The reflectance of Pt was measured by uv-vis-nir spectroscopy. The photovoltaic energy conversion efficiency (ECE) was checked using a solar simulator and potentiostat. The XRD and AFM showed that crystalline Pt layers were formed with even surface roughness in nano thicknesses. The catalytic activity and conductivity of Pt increased with increasing thickness. The UV-Vis-NIR result revealed that the average reflectance decreased drastically as Pt layer thickness decreased less than 30 nm. The ECEs of DSSCs showed as 4.11% and 6.57% with thicknesses of 10 nm and 100 nm. The ECEs of DSSCs showed the same above 30 nm. Our results implied that a Pt thickness of larger than 30 nm might offer appropriate ECE.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":139011255,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2485331339","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Ecological and evolutionary processes have shaped current biodiversity patterns. For brack- ish-water ecosystems, Remane's Artenminimum ('spe- cies minimum') concept argues that taxonomic diver- sity in organisms is lowest within the horohalinicum, which occurs at salinity 5 to 8. This concept devel- oped from macrozoobenthos data; it originated from, and is still applied to, the geologically young Baltic Sea, the world's largest semi-enclosed, brackish water body with a unique permanent salinity gradi- ent. We re-assessed pelagic biodiversity in the Baltic Sea, which had long remained underestimated. We show that phyto- and zooplankton in Baltic waters exhibit unexpectedly high diversity (>4000 taxa), with dominance by protists. Protists in the Baltic Sea follow a binomial distribution mode, while metazooplankton diversity decreases exponentially with higher salinity; however, species richness of both groups peaks in the horohalinicum. Drifting within large water masses, planktonic organisms are affected by only moderate salinity fluctuations (compared to benthic species), and thus prosper in brackish environments. The pre- sent study challenges Remane's concept for large water bodies with relatively stable salinity gradients and substantiates a novel ecological perspective of the previously overlooked high protistan diversity in brackish waters. We infer that the pronounced adapt- ability and advanced osmoregulation strategies of protists are the result of large-scale ecological and evolutionary processes. The novel brackish-water biodiversity pattern underpins the proposed protistan species-maximum concept, which refines Remane's model by discriminating between the effects of the horohalinicum on the biodiversity of small motile versus large sessile organisms.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":33347211,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2146941645","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3354\/MEPS08928","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Restoration of document and text images has become increasingly important in many areas of electronic imaging. This pa- per presents an automated system to restore low-resolution docu- ment and text images. It makes use of resolution expansion to en- hance low-resolution images for optical character recognition accuracy as well as to improve the quality of degraded images. Several approaches have been proposed in the past for resolution expansion such as linear interpolation and cubic spline expansion. The proposed system implements a bimodal-smooth-average (BSA) scoring function as an optimal criterion for image quality. The BSA approach is very different from existing methods in the sense that it uses three measures: bimodal, smooth, and average to produce a scoring function as an optimal criterion. Its idea is to create for a given image a strongly bimodal image with smooth regions in both the foreground and background, while allowing for sharp disconti- nuities at the edges. Then the desired resolution-expanded image is obtained by solving a nonlinear optimization problem subject to a constraint that the average of expanded resolution must be equal to the original unexpanded resolution. The system can be used to re- store both binary and grayscale images as well as video frames. Its capability is demonstrated experimentally to be quantitatively and qualitatively superior to standard interpolation methods. \u00a9 2001","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":1099374,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2004547477","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1117\/1.1351822","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In particular, students seem to use in their reasoning two different notions of dynamics, usually designated by the same word: 'force'.

At present, extensive research is under way at home and abroad to find inexpensive but highly effective ways and techniques to improve the traction qualities of vehicles. The design of running systems with reduced resistance to movement and slipping will help to significantly increase the productivity of vehicles and reduce fuel consumption. This, in turn, will contribute to greater operational efficiency for traction vehicles. The authors of this study have developed the design of a traction vehicle with a half-tracked propulsor. The objective of the study is to develop a mathematical model for calculating the efficiency of operating a traction vehicle equipped with a half-tracked propulsior with rubber tracks. The proposed mathematical expression takes into account the deformability of the rubber tracks of the propulsor, the uneven distribution of normal pressure along the length of the track, slipping, geometric parameters of the propulsor and the physical and mechanical properties of the soil. Using numerical methods, calculations were carried out to determine the effect of the tangential tractive force on the slipping of a wheeled traction vehicle with a different layout of the running system. The dependences of the amount of slipping on the tangential thrust force are determined. It has been found that with an increase in the traction force, the slipping increases, however, the intensity of growth of a half-tracked propulsor compared to a wheeled propulsor is much lower.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":257831759,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.5937\/jaes0-39677","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/aseestant.ceon.rs\/index.php\/jaes\/article\/download\/39677\/22417","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Neonates are unique in their control of ventilation. They differ in many respects from adults. In response to inhalation of low O2, for example, they decrease rather than increase ventilation (9, 45). Furthermore, in response to inhaled CO2 the increase in ventilation is greatest at highest-background O2 concentra\u00ad tion (47). This is the opposite of the response in the adult subject, in whom the response to C02 is greatest at lowest O2 concentration. The reason for these peculiar responses in neonates is not known, but it is tempting to postulate that it reflects a transition in the development of the respiratory control system that, after birth, assumes the role of gas exchange--a job previously performed by the placenta in utero. This new job requires continuous breaths, as opposed to the intermittent process prevalent in utero. New levels of somatic and behavior\u00ad al stimuli, such as O2 tension, blood pressure, and feeding, represent a change in feedback input to which the respiratory system must adjust itself. This adjustment is not a simple task, and hence the respiratory control system tends towards instability. This instability may manifest itself in the form of periodic breathing, or by apnea. Because apnea may cause brain damage, understanding the factors controlling ventilation in the neonate is important.

Also it was tested on a 2000-node network, showing this way that this is a more suitable method for large three-phase radial distribution networks.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":111070495,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2061512441","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1515\/ijeeps-2013-0093","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Analysis of bifurcation of second-order analog phase locked loop (PLL) with tanlock and sawtooth phase detectors is investigated. Both qualitative and quantitative analyses are carried out. Qualitatively, the basin boundaries of the attractors were constructed by plotting the stable and the unstable manifolds of the system. The basin boundaries show that the PLL under consideration for certain loop parameters has a separatrix cycle which terminates the limit cycle (out-of-lock state) and the loop pulls-in. This behavior is known in literature as homoclinic bifurcation and the value of the bifurcation parameter where this process occurs is called the pull-in range. Quantitatively, we propose a collocation-based algorithm to compute the separatrix cycle and the pull-in range. The separatrix cycle is approximated by a finite set of harmonics N with unknown amplitudes and by utilizing the fact that this limit cycle bifurcates from a separatrix cycle, a system of nonlinear algebraic equations is derived. For given values of filter parameters and gain, the algorithm numerically solves for the unknown amplitude of the harmonics and the value of the pull-in range simultaneously by evaluating the system at the collocation points. Results demonstrate that phase locked loop with sawtooth phase detector characteristics has the wider pull-in range followed by tanlock and sinusoidal, respectively.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":54851187,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2811390607","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1155\/2018\/8532546","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1155\/2018\/8532546","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

For each category, we derive racial cues in two different mediums: photo vs. textual.

We find that the category of racial cues can shape their influence on crowdfunding success. Both creator-based and product-based cues of African-American identity have lower success rates.

Mean \u00b1 S.E. days at study was 129.5 \u00b1 1.5; term is 150 days. In 9 separate studies at gestational age 129 \u00b1 1 days, the infusion of saline for 3 hr was not associated with significant changes in the basal levels of glucose, IRG, or IRI.With epinephrine, 6 \u03bcg\/min (n = 6) glucose rose from 16.7 \u00b1 3.6 to 41.9 \u00b1 9.7 mg\/dl, IRG rose from 75 \u00b1 8 to 219 \u00b1 45 pg\/ml, and IRI fell from 22.6 \u00b1 1.7 to 12.7 \u00b1 3.5 microunits\/ml (P < 0.05 for each). Propranolol alone (n = 4) did not alter basal glucose or IRG but significantly suppressed IRI. Propranolol did, however, markedly attentuate the rise in glucose and IRG while exaggerating the fall in IRI during epinephrine infusion. Qualitatively similar but smaller responses were obtained with epinephrine, 0.4 \u03bcg\/min (n = 10). Similarly, elevation of glucose and suppression of IRI was obtained with norepinephrine, 2 \u03bcg\/min (n = 5), but IRG levels did not rise significantly. \u03b1-Adrenergic blockade alone augmented IRI from 18 \u00b1 3 to 38 \u00b1 5 microunits\/ml without affecting glucose or IRG concentrations; during a blockade, norepinephrine infusion failed to induce the rise in glucose, IRG remained unchanged, and IRI remained elevated (n = 5). 2-Deoxy-D-glucose, 200 mg IV over 30 min, did not affect glucose, IRG, or IRI (n = 5). Thus, appropriate adrenergic modulation of plasma concentrations of glucose, and of IRG and IRI secretion is established in the third trimester.Speculation: Many of the metabolic adaptations that characterize the transition from intrauterine to extrauterine energy homeostasis are suggestive of a catecholamine effect. These changes include a surge in plasma immunoreactive glucagon concentrations, low immunoreactive insulin levels, an initial fall followed by stabilization of blood glucose, and a rapid rise in free fatty acid levels. An abrupt but brief increase in arterial plasma concentrations of epinephrine and norepinephrine also occurs at birth. In the present studies, infusion of epinephrine in utero simulated those changes that usually occur after birth, thereby suggesting that catecholamines are a major trigger for neonatal energy adaptations that involve insulin and glucagon secretion.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":24345450,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2027074509","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1203\/00006450-198003000-00005","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/pr1980146.pdf","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

If this gauze is applied over expensive surfaces (as a whole leg, or the abdomen) in the larger operations, and covered with im\u00ad permeable tissue, adults can be rendered seriously ill by the ab\u00ad sorption of carbolic acid through the skin ; with children up to about five years of age it may be fatal.

Running the risk of reiterating what should be well known, I beg you will state the following propositions, for which I ask the largest possible circulation 1. A 3 per cent, gauze (forchildren 1 percent.) is amply strong enough to insure an aseptic condition of wounds. 2.

Dropsy.\u2014 Concentrated Solution of Saline Cathartics.\u2014A con\u00ad centrated solution of a saline cathartic ought to prove of consider\u00ad able service in certain cases of dropsy, where, owing to the great accumulation of transuded serum in vital parts and elsewhere, there is imminent danger to life and an urgent need for an immediate and active removal of a portion of the transuded fluid. In such cases the value of saline and other active cathartics has long been ap\u00ad preciated, but I am not aware that use has been made of the more powerful action of a concentrated saline cathartic. It removes the dropsical fluid by two channels : by the intestines and by the kid\u00ad neys. No other purgative has this double action. It is question\u00ad able, also, if any other purgative acts so rapidly in reducing the fluids of the blood. This is of the greatest importance in certain critical cases of dropsy. It is almost perfectly certain that no other purgative excites intestinal secretion so powerfully, and at the same time produces so little irritation of the intestinal mucous mem\u00ad brane and so little disturbance of the body generally. This is ani additional recommendation for the employment of the concen\u00ad trated saline. The diluted salt, the form in which it is always given,, has practically, in so far as it affects dropsical fluids, the action only of a diuretic. Based on these considerations, I have made several! trials of the.concentrated salt in suitable cases of dropsy, and int most of them with very satisfactory results. In a boy aged io, I prescribed three-quarters of an ounce of sulphate qf magnesia dissolved in two tablespoonfuls of water, no water to be given afterward. The result exceeded my expectation. When I called next evening, the patient was lying quietly sleeping in his bed. The nausea was greatly diminished, and the dyspnoea had almost entirely gone, and his breathing was much slower. The pulse was also less rapid, and the pained, anxious expression of his face had' vanished. His mother told me that she had given him the salt asI had directed, and that in less than an hour afterward the purga\u00ad tive action of the salt manifested itself, and there were repeated, evacuations in the course of the next few hours ; on each occasion the water seemed to \"gush\" from him, and he passed an unusually large quantity of urine.\u2014Dr. Mathew Hay, p. 67, Braithwaite's;","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":251804529,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":"9084875","ArXiv":null},"license":"CC0","url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

This thesis investigates using Quality Estimation (QE) to predict post-editing effort at the sentence level by focusing on the impact of features. Regression models are trained on two datasets emulating real-world scenarios, separated by the availability of post-edited training data. One dataset consists of EnglishGerman translations and post-editions, annotated with HTER, the other dataset consists of Swedish-English translations and reference translations, annotated with TER. A total of 16 features, including novel features measuring SMT reordering and German-English noun translation errors are proposed and individually evaluated for the two scenarios. The best performing feature vectors for each scenario are both able to surpass a commonly used baseline set, with the biggest impact observed on the Swedish-English dataset. The possibility of estimating post-editing effort without utilising postedited data is also explored. A correlation is indicated between the two through comparing human perceptions of post-editing effort with goldstandard and predicted TER scores. Even though the gold-standard values come close, the predicted scores still needs improvements to depict postediting effort.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":147703076,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2761852283","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Pedestrian accessibility maps often display a Euclidean distance (straight line between two points) buffer around a destination. This paper presents a map that demonstrates how a pedestrian network can be used to improve the accuracy of these results and model the effect of gradient and demographics on walk speed. A bespoke GIS model was developed to undertake the assessment, which is explained along with the key assumptions made. The model was used to assess pedestrian access levels from five proposed development sites in the West Northamptonshire area to the key local facilities. The results quantified access using defined threshold journey times to provide the percentage of dwellings within this limit.

+{"text":"Wisdom of the Crowd is the aggregation of many individual estimates to obtain a better collective one. This effect has an enormous potential from the social point of view, as it means that a decision may be taken more effectively by vote among a large crowd than by a small minority of experts. Wisdom of the Crowd has been demonstrated in a wide range of cognitive tasks, all of which involve rational thinking. Here we tested this effect in the context of drawing simple geometrical shapes which, while still enacting cognitive processes, mainly involved visuo-motor control. We asked more than 700 school students to trace with their finger a predefined pattern shown on a touchscreen, and analyzed whether their individual trajectories could be aggregated in a way that improved the match with the original pattern. We found that this task has all the characteristics of the strongest examples of Wisdom of the Crowd: First, the aggregate trajectory can be up to 5 times more accurate than the individual ones. Second, this great improvement requires aggregating trajectories from different individuals (rather than different trials from the same individual). Third, the aggregate trajectory outperforms >99% of the individual trajectories. Fourth, when we split our dataset between young children (<10.5 years old) and older children, we find that older individuals outperform younger ones, as naively expected. However, a crowd of young children outperforms the average older individual. In sum, we demonstrate for the first time the Wisdom of the Crowd phenomenon in the realm of motor control, opening the door to further studies of human but also animal behavioral trajectories and their mechanistic underpinnings. Significance statement Wisdom of the Crowd is the aggregation of many individual estimates to obtain a better collective one. Thanks to a combination of mathematical, psychological and social factors, this collective estimate can be surprisingly accurate, even when it comes from a crowd of poorly informed individuals. Originally proposed in the context of simple tasks (such as estimating a number), a general version of this concept now pervades our society, from being a key reason behind the success of democracies to being explicitly used to generate collective high-quality knowledge, from Wikipedia to Stack Exchange. Despite this enormous practical success, academic research lags behind, with most studies focusing on simple and narrow tasks. Here we apply the concept for the first time to a sensory-motor task, testing whether the combination of many drawings traced by different subjects resembles the original template. This type of task is wildly different from previous studies of Wisdom of the Crowd, as it depends on continuous sensory-motor control, rather than explicit reasoning or discrete decision-making. We demonstrate that the effect is strong: The aggregate trajectories are more accurate than an overwhelming majority of the individual ones, and a crowd of young children outperforms the average teenager with more mature motor skills.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":246751280,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1098\/rsif.2022.0480","PubMedCentral":"9532022","ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1098\/rsif.2022.0480","status":"HYBRID"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Here, we report the detection and identification of MBL producing P. aeruginosa in our hospital (University Malaya Medical Center, Malaysia), and the characterization of MBL cassette-containing integrons in 90 imipenem-resistant P. aeruginosa isolates. Of the isolates investigated in this study, 32 (94%) MBL-positive strains were identified, harboring either blaIMP or blaVIM genes. Three MBL phenotypic assays methods (CDT, DDST, and IP\/IPI E-test) were evaluated by comparison to that of molecular methods. The MBL IP\/IPI E-test exhibited 100% accuracy in the detection of MBL production. Class1 integrons were detected as the most abundant type of integron in the Malaysian isolates. The genes detected from MBL-positive isolates were blaIMP-7, aacC1; blaVIM-11; aacA7, blaVIM-2, attI, and aacA7. Our findings show that class I integrons were prevalent in P. aeruginosa and they may play an important role in the dissemination of multidrug resistance P. aeruginosa. Based on the differences in the fingerprinting patterns, two clusters (A and B) were identified among the MBL-producing isolates. Cluster A comprised 18 isolates (56 %) carrying the blaVIM gene, whereas cluster B comprised 14 (44 %) isolates carrying the blaIMP gene. The non-MBL isolates were divided into clusters C and D.

Cross-cultural pictogram interpretations are collected in two countries using a web survey, and the characteristics of pictogram interpretations are first analyzed. Based on the analyses, we identify three issues that need to be tackled to handle cultural differences in human-provided interpretations. The three issues are transformed into the following three actionable tasks: 1. A method of handling semantic ambiguity in pictogram interpretations is devised. Participants at both end of the communication channel must share common pictogram interpretation to communicate. However, because pictogram interpretation can be ambiguous, conveying intended meaning with a pictogram sometimes can be difficult. To assist human task of selecting pictograms more likely to be interpreted as intended, we propose a semantic relevance measure which calculates how relevant a pictogram is to a given interpretation. The proposed measure calculates the similarity measurement of two words in a pictogram set and the probability of each interpretation word in a given pictogram using pictogram interpretations and ratios gathered from a web survey.

+{"text":"Perturbation of circadian rhythm is believed to be detrimental to the physiology of organs, including the mammalian ovary. However, the molecular mechanisms that are regulated by circadian rhythm in the ovary have not been identified. To identify the molecular mechanisms that are regulated by circadian rhythm and to speculate on the physiologies that are likely to be damaged by perturbation of circadian rhythm in the ovary, we searched for genes in which the amount of transcripts oscillates every 24 h in the mouse ovary. To achieve this, expression profiles of circadian genes (per1, per2, and bmal1) that code transcription-regulation factors for which transcription activities are known to oscillate every 24 h in almost all organs, and wee1, the transcription activity of which circadian genes regulate and which is known to elongate the G2 phase in the cell cycle, were analyzed in this study. Six-week-old female ICR mice were kept individually under a lighting schedule with lights on for 14 h followed by lights off for 10 h. A vaginal smear of each mouse was collected every day to determine its estrous cycle. Ovaries of 3 mice were collected continuously every 4 h over a 4-day period from the start of the light period on the day of proestrus. Total RNA was extracted from each ovary, and 500 ng each was used for cDNA synthesis. Transcripts of each gene and of tbp were quantified by real-time PCR, and the amount of the transcripts of each gene in each sample was divided by the amount of tbp transcripts. The obtained relative values in each sample were used as the representative data of the amount of transcripts of each gene. The amounts of per1, per2, and bmal1 clearly oscillated every 24 h. The maximum and minimum values of per1 and per2 were observed at 16 and 4 h, respectively, after onset of the light period each day. The maximum and minimum values of bmal1 were observed at the time of onset of the light period and at 12 h after onset of the light period each day. Averages of the maximum values of per1, per2, and bmal1 each day were significantly greater than averages of the minimum values (per1, 3.60 \u00b1 0.10 and 1.38 \u00b1 0.09; per2, 0.82 \u00b1 0.08 and 0.27 \u00b1 0.06; bmal1, 0.61 \u00b1 0.05 and 0.17 \u00b1 0.01; P < 0.05). The cyclicity in the oscillation of the amount of wee1 transcripts was weaker than that observed in circadian genes, but the average of values that were obtained from 12 to 20 h after onset of the light period each day was significantly greater than that obtained from 0 to 8 h (0.29 \u00b1 0.02 and 0.22 \u00b1 0.01; P < 0.05). Our results suggested that the cell cycle of ovarian cells is regulated in a circadian manner through wee1 transcription, which is regulated by circadian genes of which the amounts of transcripts oscillate every 24 h.

Here we show, by considering the topology of the ground state manifolds (GSMs) of such systems, that dislocations in the density phase field always split into disclinations, and that the disclinations themselves are constrained to sit at particular phase values in the GSM. This constraint on the location of the disclinations results in an energy barrier to dislocation glide. Consequently, the topology of the GSM alone gives rise to a Peierls\u2013Nabarro barrier.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":232105113,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1098\/rspa.2021.0725","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":"2103.02055"},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/arxiv.org\/pdf\/2103.02055","status":"GREEN"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

This review built familiarity with the technological challenges and state-of-the-art of the presented technology. Next step was iterative experimentation of machine capabilities for the production of carbon-fiber antennas. Finally, antenna prototypes were produced and their physical and electrical characteristics were evaluated through several test methods. The results showed that TFP embroidery machines were capable of producing quality, carbon antennas. Induction values of the antennas from 0.5 to 3.5 'H were achieved.

Towards resolving this issue, strategic management theory assists with identifying the investments in intangibles-related activities that add strategic value in today's corporations. Knowledge management theory further supports an innovative classification approach, providing for significantly higher accounting recognition of these intangible assets. The agency assurance approach calls for a completely new accounting standard in which the differentiation costs of today's readily identifiable, explicit knowledge-based intangibles are capitalised as assets, while investments in tacit knowledge-based activities remain as period expenses. Capitalisation not only validates the strategic value of differentiation costs but also, simultaneously, provides the cost basis for management's monitoring of the underlying intangible assets.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":154764960,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2110898868","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1504\/EJIM.2009.022632","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Even then, the expert witness' evidence and opinion is paramount.

Results Administration of RGAP to LPS-treated sebocytes and ORS cell cultures resulted in increased expression of inflammatory cytokines like interleukin (IL)-1\u03b2, IL-6, IL-8, and tumor necrosis factor-\u03b1, toll-like receptor 2, p-c-jun, p-JNK and p-iKB (p<0.05). Administration of RGAP also resulted in increased expression of LL37 in LPS-treated sebocytes and ORS cells, and increased production of sebum in LPS-treated sebocytes (p<0.05). RGAP also promoted increased expression of inflammatory biomarkers in C. acnes-associated inflammatory nodules in mice (p<0.05). Conclusion RGAP may exacerbate inflammatory pathology associated with acne vulgaris. Ginseng supplements may be contraindicated in patients diagnosed with inflammatory acne.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":238354666,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.5021\/ad.2021.33.5.409","PubMedCentral":"8460481","ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.5021\/ad.2021.33.5.409","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"The abdomen obesity appear to be now growing as a factor which raise healthy problems such as cardiovascular disease and adult disease, not simple individual problem, as modern life styles become a factor which more deepens the abdomen obesity through insufficient exercise such as office business and stress, and going to and leaving the office by car. But many women try to control their weight through inappropriate methods than a desirable weight-control methods to balance their appearance, as they are more and more preferring the thin figure based on the beauty of the 21st century made through the mass media, which cases injuring their health are rapidly growing. So the purpose of this study is to make a comparative analysis of slimming cosmetics-applied group with lymph drainage massage and only slimming cosmetics-applied group on abdomen obesity women interested in improving abdomen obesity so that lymph drainage can be applied and generalized as an effective program guide for obesity control. This experiment was carried out 2 to 3 times a week, total 10 times for 4 weeks on the only slimming cosmetics-applied first experimental group (10 female office workers) and the slimming cosmetics-applied second experimental group (10 female office workers) with a lymph drainage abdomen program, and the control group (8 female office workers), to examine into general details, diets and exercises through a survey before experiment, and using One way ANOVA. And the paired t-test applying SPSS v. 12.0 was also carried out to examine into the effect of slimming cosmetics and lymph drainage on abdomen obesity in women. The results of this study were summarized as follows. 1) It showed that there is a significant difference by p<0.01 in BMI (Body Mass Index) change for the first experimental group (only slimming cosmetics-applied group) and the second experiment group (slimming cosmetics- and lymph drainage-applied group). 2) It showed that there is a significant difference by p<0.05 and p<0.01 in BMI change for the first experimental group and the second experiment group, respectively. 3) It showed that there is a significant difference by p<0.01 in WHR (Waist Hip Ratio) change for the first experimental group and the second experiment group. 4) It showed that there is a significant difference by p<0.05 and p<0.01 in WHR change for the first experimental group and the second experiment group. From the results of this study, the slimming cosmetics-and lymph drainage-applied second experimental group was more effective than only slimming cosmetics-applied first experimental group in general physical examination, and there was a significant difference in the effect of slimming cosmetics for the application of only slimming cosmetics, being a help to the solution of obesity. Consequently, good methods and directions will be proposed to the skin obesity and body-shape control programs, and the beauty industry dealing with slimming cosmetics, respectively.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":75125012,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2272187511","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The development of sophisticated and complex techniques of literary interpretation was among the greatest achievements of those twelfth-century thinkers who have come loosely to be called 'Chartrian.' Chartrian literary allegoresis grew from a reawakened interest in the natural sciences, and a spiritual optimism about man's rational capacity to understand the Creator through his creation. These literary commentators made a habit of encyclopedic digression, using single words or brief passages from their texts to introduce whole chunks of allegorically or literally relevant information from the trivium, the quadrivium, mythology, and natural philosophy. They thus sought to find in their books the whole world of knowledge and the course of spiritual development, even as they had learned to see their world itself as a book. Intimately connected to this was the idea of the arts as a discipline for regaining lost knowledge of divine truths, and education as part of a symbolic spiritual pilgrimage.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":151966395,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2510916424","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1017\/S0362152900006899","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The present study examined body image perceptions and interest in weight manipulation among 215 preadolescent children (girls, n =101) (mean age = 10) in third, fourth, and fifth grades. To measure body image perceptions, children were asked to answer two multiple choice questions: I think I am: fat, skinny, in-between; and I would like to: lose weight, gain weight, stay the same. Interest in weight manipulation was measured using the Children's Eating Attitude Test (ChEAT). Results indicated that children show a fairly accurate perception of their body shape and size and this remained consistent for both genders and across all age groups. ANOVA results showed children who felt they were \"fat\" had a significantly higher level of disturbed eating patterns (ChEAT mean = 14.00) compared to the children who felt they were \"in-between\" (ChEAT mean = 6.95) (p = .009). Children who indicated they would like to \"lose weight\" had significantly higher ChEAT scores (mean = 9.19) than those who wanted to \"stay the same\" (mean = 6.56) (p = .033). ChEAT scores for girls showed a significant difference between the \"fat\" group (mean = 29.00) and the \"in-between\" group (mean = 6.81) (p < .001) and between the \"fat\" group and the \"skinny\" group (mean = 10.78) (p = .002). Twenty-five percent of this sample of children indicated a desire to \"lose weight\" (mean body mass index = 21.35) and 67% desired to \"stay the same\" (mean body mass index = 17.45). Preadolescent children are showing a desire for a thinner body type and are already developing a motivation to avoid weight gain or obesity through dietary manipulation.

The disease occurs as a generalized septicemia, meningitis, and meningoencephalitis. Several investigators have attempted to immunize animals against L. monocytogenes. Julianelle and Pons (1939) demonstrated that animals which recovered from a conjunctivitis due to this organism were refractile to subsequent conjunctival exposure, but were not immuine to other routes of challenge. Their results also indicated that antiserum of high titer to Listeria did not confer any passive protection. Graham et al. (1940) were unable to find any increase in resistance to challenge in rabbits, chickens, guinea pigs, or sheep after immunization with formalinized suspensions of cells. Similar results were obtained using suspensions of viable Listeria. Likewise these workers were unable to demonstrate any protective ability of high titered antiserum to Listeria. Our attempts to immunize mice with heat killed or formalinized suspensions of Listeria were also unsuccessful. Osebold and Sawyer (1957), however, reported that mice receiving sublethal doses of living virulent organisms subcutaneously were immune when subsequently challenged with a comparatively large number of virulent bacteria.

The article argues that the government should be accountable for these changes but not in a way which simply justifies its actions to the body politic but rather by going beyond this to a complete critical evaluation to assess their merit and worth. It is this exposure which will provide its real accountability. This article addresses the contextual factors surrounding the possibility of conducting such a wide-ranging evaluation. It traces a range of different examples which highlight the resistance of the previous government to an open-ended evaluation tracing the sizeable investment in implementation rather than careful policy experimentation and evaluation that has occurred.

+{"text":"Bernard Ashmole was elected an Honorary Member of the Archaeological Institute of America in 1940. His death, at the age of 93, on 25 February 1988, deprived Classical art history of one of its senior figures of the 20th century, an acknowledged authority on Classical sculpture and a teacher whose influence went far beyond those who enjoyed personal contact with him. His academic career was divided between work for museums, for the British Schools overseas, and teaching. It began in Rome, working with Stuart Jones on the catalogue of sculptures in the Conservatori Museum. After a short period in the Coin Room of the Ashmolean Museum (he was remotely related to its 17thcentury founder), he returned to the British School at Rome as its Director, from 1925 to 1928. This was followed by a long period of service as Yates Professor of Archaeology in the University of London, a post he held until 1948. He had already been appointed Keeper of the Greek and Roman Department in the British Museum in 1939, a difficult period in its history just after an exaggerated scandal over the Elgin Marbles, and after the war he was engaged in planning the reinstatement of the collection in its bombed galleries. In 1956 he went to Oxford, to succeed Sir John Beazley as Lincoln Professor of Classical Archaeology and Art, and while there had to plan and oversee the installation of the Cast Gallery in a new building. He retired in 1961. This was not the end of his teaching, however, and he was Geddes-Harrower Professor in Aberdeen 1961-1963 and Visiting Professor at Yale in 1964. He had delivered the Hertz (1934) and Italian (1957) lectures to the British Academy, the Rhind lectures in 1957, the Myres Memorial lecture in 1961, and after retirement was the Norton Lecturer of the Archaeological Institute of America in 1963 and delivered the Louise Taft Semple lectures in 1964 and the Wrightsman lectures in 1967. He was a Fellow of the British Academy, awarded its Kenyon Medal in 1979, and appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire in 1957. His academic achievement lay mainly in the study of sculpture, and is not to be measured by mere numbers of pages published, since his expertise was widely sought and acted upon by scholars as well as museums. His writings demonstrate clearly enough his sharpness of eye and coolness of judgment, and from them any student may still learn much of that most difficult discipline, how to look at sculpture. His Catalogue of Ancient Marbles at Ince Blundell Hall (1929) was a classic study of an important English country house collection (now in the Liverpool Merseyside Museum) but he was perhaps more subtly influential through his lectures, especially the Late Archaic and Early Classical Greek Sculpture in Sicily and South Italy (1934), Some Nameless Sculptors of the Fifth Century B.C. (1962) and The Classical Ideal in Greek Sculpture (1963). He was as much interested in sculptural and architectural techniques as in the connoisseurship of style, displaying a strongly practical side to his character which was no less apparent in the rest of his life. Its academic application is best seen in the Wrightsman lectures, Architect and Sculptor in Classical Greece (1972), with their masterly account of generally neglected aspects of such well-known architectural complexes of sculpture as those of Olympia, the Parthenon, and the Mausoleum. The 1930s had seen some fairly sharp polemics with Italian scholars, mainly over forgeries and sculpture; it was with the aid of science that he came to the aid of the Boston","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":245288730,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1086\/ajs505402","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"This thesis studies the technical and linguistic aspects of human translation quality \nestimation (HTQE) for trainee translations from English to Chinese.

Specifically, an extensive frame- \nwork of translation quality features has been designed at both the sentence- and \ndocument-level, and a novel stacked neural model with a cross-lingual attention \nmechanism, leveraging the strengths of convolutional neural networks and recurrent \nneural networks, also has been proposed. \nFrom the feature-based perspective, a supervised classification method is \nproposed to identify terminology for quality evaluation purpose, using language- \nindependent statistics as features. I investigated the correlation of normalised term \noccurrences with human annotated quality scores. Descriptive and exploratory statis- \ntics are carried out on trainee and machine translation datasets through pairwise \ncorrelation and principal component analysis to study the contribution of individual \nand group features and the distribution of translation errors, having shown that \nHT errors cause mainly content inadequacy and machine translation (MT) errors \nare more about language misuse. Fine-grained document-level and sentence-level \nHTQE models are trained using the state-of-the-art XGBoost algorithm with grid \nsearch parameter optimisation. Multiple models built with different feature selection \nstrategies are compared to a strong baseline QuEst for machine translation quality \nestimation. On HT and MT data, the optimal models outperform the baseline and \nother models in predicting the majority of quality scores on the criterion of the \nagreement with human judgements. From the deep learning-based perspective, a \nstacked neural model specifically for sentence-level HTQE is presented.

+{"text":"managed in the primary care setting. Surveys suggest that approximately 20 percent of U.S. adults have symptoms of GERD at least once a week.4 A subgroup of patients with GERD develop severe complications that include erosive esophagitis, stricture formation, Barrett's esophagus, and adenocarcinoma of the esophagus. Because Barrett's esophagus is thought to be associated with the development of adenocarcinoma, it is imperative that primary care physicians be familiar with Barrett's esophagus, its association with GERD, and its diagnosis and management. The overall prevalence of Barrett's esophagus in the general population is difficult to estimate, because approximately 25 percent of persons with Barrett's esophagus have no symptoms of reflux.5 It is known, however, that the incidence of adenocarcinoma of the esophagus has risen sharply in the past few decades. The results of one study6 note that the incidence of adenocarcinoma in white men has increased by more than 350 percent since the mid-1970s. Identification of patients at risk for adenocarcinoma of the B arrett's esophagus was first described in 1950 by Norman Barrett, who reported a case of chronic peptic ulcer in the lower esophagus that was covered by epithelium.1 Barrett's esophagus can be defined simply as columnar metaplasia of the esophagus. Patients who have columnar epithelium that measures 3 cm or more from the gastroesophageal junction are said to have traditional, or \"long-segment,\" Barrett's esophagus, while patients with a measure less than 3 cm have \"short-segment\" Barrett's esophagus.2 In 1998, the American College of Gastroenterology (ACG) defined Barrett's esophagus as \"a change in the esophageal epithelium of any length that can be recognized at endoscopy and is confirmed to have intestinal metaplasia by biopsy of the tubular esophagus and excludes intestinal metaplasia of the cardia.\"3 Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a condition commonly managed in the primary care setting. Patients with GERD may develop reflux esophagitis as the esophagus repeatedly is exposed to acidic gastric contents. Over time, untreated reflux esophagitis may lead to chronic complications such as esophageal stricture or the development of Barrett's esophagus. Barrett's esophagus is a premalignant metaplastic process that typically involves the distal esophagus. Its presence is suspected by endoscopic evaluation of the esophagus, but the diagnosis is confirmed by histologic analysis of endoscopically biopsied tissue. Risk factors for Barrett's esophagus include GERD, white or Hispanic race, male sex, advancing age, smoking, and obesity. Although Barrett's esophagus rarely progresses to adenocarcinoma, optimal management is a matter of debate. Current treatment guidelines include relieving GERD symptoms with medical or surgical measures (similar to the treatment of GERD that is not associated with Barrett's esophagus) and surveillance endoscopy. Guidelines for surveillance endoscopy have been published; however, no studies have verified that any specific treatment or management strategy has decreased the rate of mortality from adenocarcinoma.

Nine clusters (ecoregions) were identified as the optimal solution balancing the variance within and among clusters based on an unconstrained K-means analysis of the principal component scores of the rasters along the first three principal components based on eight variables. The results revealed a high degree of geographic contiguity of ecoregions over broad spatial scales with limited fragmentation within a bioregion although there was evidence of a high degree of heterogeneity. Strong latitudinal and bathymetric gradients were apparent in the distribution of ecoregions. Because spatial heterogeneity in the distribution of ecoregions can lead to uncertainty in the delineation of management units, clustering was repeated on the first three PCs with the addition of positional (latitude, longitude) information in an attempt to include spatial proximity in the delineation of management units. This analysis also revealed the overwhelming influence of geographic proximity and distance in the definition of each cluster which appeared to overshadow the combination of environmental characteristics identified ecoregions in the unconstrained analysis. Because of the limitations associated with the analytical approaches that did or did not make use of positional information in the clustering, both sets of results served as guides for the recommendations. Overall, three nested spatial scales were identified as relevant for the development of ecosystem summaries and management plans: Bioregion, Ecosystem Production Unit (EPU), and Ecoregion.

+{"text":"Autonomous intersection management (AIM) guides vehicles to pass through signal-free intersections individually. Since vehicles are permitted to turn in any direction from any lane in AIM, it is desired to erase lane changes on the entry lane to achieve high traffic efficiency. However, erasing lane changes exposes intersections to complex conflicts. To study the trade-off between lane changes on the entry lanes and conflicts inside the intersection, this paper makes a comprehensive comparison of two kinds of intersection systems. First, all-direction turn lanes (ADTL) and specific-direction turn lanes (SDTL) are designed to distinguish lane change behaviors. Second, a two-stage method is proposed to manage the oncoming vehicles at the intersection. The first stage is timing schedule optimization and the second stage is trajectory optimization. Then, a method based on Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) is designed to solve the timing schedule optimization model at high traffic demands. Finally, two parts of simulation experiments are conducted in this paper. The first part verifies the performance of the MCTS-based method. The second part compares ADTL and SDTL in multiple scenarios. The results show that ADTL outperforms SDTL in the efficient system, but the opposite conclusion appears in the fault-tolerant system. Besides, combining ADTL with lane changes may bring out the full value of ADTL.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":257305176,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/TVT.2023.3250957","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

It is full of challenges to choose the best strategy due to the heterogeneous cache\/IO preference of DL models, shared dataset among multiple jobs and dynamic GPU scaling of DL training. In this work, we exploit the job characteristics based on their training throughput, dataset size and scalability.

+{"text":"For more than forty years Glen Canyon Dam, an oil-on-canvas painting by Norman Rockwell, ornamented the Arizona dam's visitor center. Completed late in 1969, more than four feet high by six feet wide, the painting proves unusual among Rockwell's works, most of which he strove to make easy to read. But this picture tells no clear and urgent tale. A family of three Navajos, a cowering hound, and a horse all goggle at the dam from atop a slickrock knoll (fig. 1). In 2015, the U.S. government transferred the painting to the Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge, Massachusetts, alleging fears of damage from the Arizona sun. My stories here explore the life of the painting and the program that commissioned it. Decades of dam building had soured the public and invigorated a wave of conservation crusaders. The Sierra Club routed the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (or BuRec) plans in 1968 for dams at Marble and Bridge Canyons, dams that would have made the Grand Canyon a reservoir. (That park now draws some five million visitors a year.) In 1969 BuRec commissioned Rockwell as part of a program meant to renovate the agency's reputation. The program was a novel attempt to green-wash operations and improve public opinion on the eve of major environmental reforms. In 1970, the first Earth Day came to be commemorated. By 1973--the same year the collection of BuRec-commissioned paintings was touring galleries around the nation--Congress had enacted the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System; the National Environmental Policy Act; the Environmental Protection Agency; and the Clean Air, the Clean Water, and the Endangered Species Acts. Bud Rusho, a Utah-based PR specialist for BuRec, gave an interview in 1995 that recalled the genesis of the art program. \"The whole scheme was the dream child of John DeWitt, then working as a public relations specialist for BuRec in Washington, D.C.\" Readers might stumble like I did over the phrase \"dream child.\" It can refer to an idea that is stillborn, immature, foolish, or trivial. In that quaint phrase, Rusho encapsulated his eventual attitude toward both the art program and his colleague John DeWitt. DeWitt and Rusho had a falling out in 1969 that says much about the agency and the men who ran it. Friends since 1963, they toured Cataract and Glen Canyons before the latter's dam came online and flooded both. Those BuRec staffers evolved into unequal partners when DeWitt initiated the visiting artists program in Washington, D.C., and began to take the lead. In 1969, DeWitt summoned photographer and writer Rusho to Page, Arizona, to fetch a car for the Rockwells, to chauffeur Norman and his wife Molly, and to take photos for the BuRec annals. Molly was also taking photos, dozens of studies of human and mechanical subjects Rockwell would use back in the studio. A side trip brought the four of them to Rainbow Bridge, the signature arch of the canyon. Rusho \"asked Norman if he would pose as if sketching so that I could photograph him, supposedly in action.\" Rockwell agreed. Instead of pretending to sketch, \"We somehow found an 8\" x 10\" piece of pink construction paper, and Norman quickly drew an astoundingly accurate sketch of Rainbow Bridge, signed it and handed it to me. I thought 'Wow, what a souvenir!\"' That gift sketch and its upshot proved memorable enough that Rusho told the story twice, once in his 1995 interview and again in an undated written statement, attached to his oral history as an appendix. (Both were published in 2008.) \"As we were preparing to retire,\" he recalled, \"John DeWitt told me, rather forcefully, 'All art objects produced by artists while being conducted by the Bureau of Reclamation Art Program are the property of the program itself. Please give me the sketch of Rainbow Bridge made by Norman Rockwell.\"' One can only imagine Rusho's face when DeWitt pulled rank on him that way. \"I thought about telling DeWitt to jump in the lake, preferably from a high cliff, but as I was there at his invitation I meekly handed over the sketch. \u2026","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":159789448,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2617001897","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"After initiating synthesis of RNA at a promoter, RNA polymerase (RNAP) normally continues to elongate the transcript until it reaches a termination site. Important elements of termination sites are transcribed before polymerase translocation stops, and the resulting RNA is an active element of the termination pathway. Nascent transcripts of intrinsic sites can halt transcription without the assistance of additional factors, and those of Rho-dependent sites recruit the Rho termination protein to the elongation complex. In both cases, RNAP, the transcript, and the template dissociate (reviewed in references 76 and 80). Termination is rarely, if ever, completely efficient, and the expression of downstream genes can be controlled by altering the efficiency of terminator readthrough. Two distinct mechanisms of elongation control have been reported for bacterial RNA polymerases. In one, exemplified by attenuation of the his and trp operons of Salmonella typhimurium and Escherichia coli, respectively, a single terminator is inactivated by interaction with an upstream sequence in the transcript, with a terminator-specific protein, or with a translating ribosome that follows closely behind RNAP (reviewed in references 35 and 104). In a second, whose prototype is antitermination of phage l early transcription, polymerase is stably modified to a terminator-resistant form after it leaves the promoter. In this case, the modified enzyme not only transcribes through sequential downstream terminators, but also it is less sensitive to the pause sites that normally delay transcript elongation. Both pathways are widespread in nature, but in this minireview we consider only the second, which is known as processive antitermination (for previous reviews, see references 22, 23, 27, and 32). The recent explosive growth in our understanding of transcription elongation (reviewed in references 57, 96, and 99) make this an especially appropriate time to survey regulatory elements that target the transcription elongation complex. Antitermination in l is induced by two quite distinct mechanisms. The first is the result of interaction between l N protein and its targets in the early phage transcripts, and the second is the result of an interaction between the l Q protein and its target in the late phage promoter. We describe the N mechanism first. Lambda N, a small basic protein of the arginine-rich motif (ARM) (Fig. 1) family of RNA binding proteins, binds to a 15-nucleotide (nt) stem-loop called BOXB (17) (Fig. 2). (We will capitalize the names of sites in RNA and italicize the names of the corresponding DNA sequences; e.g., BOXB and boxB.) boxB is found twice in the l chromosome, once in each of the two early operons (82, 83). It is close to the start point of the PL operon transcript and just downstream of the first translated gene of the PR operon. Neither the distance between the transcription start site and boxB, nor the nature of the promoter (at least in the case of sigma-70-dependent promoters), nor the nature of the terminator is relevant to N action. Although the boxB sequence is not well conserved in other bacteriophages of the l family, most of these phages encode proteins that are analogous to l N and have sequences capable of forming BOXB-like structures in their PL and PR operons. In some cases, it has been shown that these structures are recognized by the cognate N analogs. It is believed that this accounts for the phage specificity of N-mediated antitermination. The structures of complexes between the ARMs of l N (residues 1 to 22) and P22 N (residues 14 to 32) and their cognate BOXBs have recently been determined by nuclear magnetic resonance (15, 48) (Fig. 2). The two complexes, although similar, show differences that account for the specificity of N-BOXB recognition (92, 101). Upon binding, the l and P22 ARMs adopt a bent a-helix conformation that packs against the BOXB hairpin through hydrophobic and ionic interactions. Residues in the amino-proximal segments make multiple base, ribose, and phosphate contacts in the 59-ascending stem of BOXB without disrupting its regular A-form. The two stem-proximal residues of both RNA loops form a sheared G z A base pair which is contacted by R7 of l N and R19 of P22 N (note that R19 corresponds to Arg 6 of Fig. 2; see Fig. 2 legend). In the l complex, the fourth residue (G) of the GAAGA loop is extruded and the remaining residues form a GNRA fold similar to the base-stacked GAAA tetraloop reported in a number of important RNA structures (Fig. 2). P22 N also creates a GNRA fold, but this is accomplished by extrusion of the third residue (C) of the GACAA loop. In contrast to the extruded G residue in BOXB-l, which is not close to l N, the extruded C residue in BOXB-P22 makes contacts with residues in the carboxyl-proximal segment of P22 N. The structure of the l N complex is stabilized by an important stacking interaction between W18 and the second residue (A) in the BOXB-l loop. This interaction is not found in the P22 complex. Formation of the GNRA fold is essential for l N binding, and mutations in loop residues 1, 3, and 5 that prevent tetraloop formation block N binding (17). The structure of the complex between the BOXB of phage 21 and its cognate N protein must be substantially different than the complexes described above because the BOXB-21 loop (TCTAACCG) cannot be folded into a GNRA tetraloop. However, the HK022 Nun protein, which recognizes l BOXB (see below), probably does so in a way that resembles that of l (18). If so, A3, R7, * Corresponding author.

+{"text":"The quantum-well emission originating from triple-barrier AlAs\/GaAs resonant tunneling light emitting diodes has been investigated. In these devices, three barriers defined two asymmetric quantum wells. Two nominally identical structures were grown that had a different sequence of the two quantum wells. Depending on which well was the first well for the electron tunneling transport, double or triple resonances were observed. In the latter case, the two- dimensional accumulation layer is aligned with the subbands from both wells. The subband occupation and the charge distribution between the two wells is studied, showing that at any resonance the wider of the two wells will emit more luminescence but at a double resonance the narrower well can be the stronger light emitter. Bandstructure calculations under all bias conditions further confirm the occurrence of both kinds of resonances in these triple-barrier structures.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":121851909,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2797300707","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1117\/12.175721","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"In the summer of 1997, the Thai currency lost half of its value. This led to the collapse of the Thai economy and signaled the onset of the East Asian Financial Crisis. In the six months that followed, the Indonesian Rupiah lost 75% of its value, the South Korean won lost 50% of its value, and the Malaysian Ringgit lost 40% of its value. Yet some neighboring countries, including India, remained relatively unaffected by the crisis that devastated the rest of the region. While a large number of studies have explored the causes and consequences of the crisis, relatively little analysis has been devoted to the question of why some countries remained insulated from the crisis. The purpose of this paper is to shed light on this issue and to draw some policy recommendations by comparing the East Asian economies with the Indian economy. Our study analyzes the role liberalization policies and exchange rate regimes have on crises. We find that while both full capital account convertibility and pegged exchange rate policies can have positive effects on developing economies, the combination of the two increases speculation, making an economy more susceptible to herd behavior and the contagious spread of a crisis. This leads us to conclude that India's floating exchange rate regime and tighter financial regulation helped insulate the country from the East Asian Financial Crisis.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":155026406,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2187446000","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Three hundred and fifteen pregnant adolescent girls completed a self-administered questionnaire. This questionnaire included demographic characteristics, health behavior, sexual behavior, and family support of these teenage girls and their choice of pregnant resolution and help seeking behavior. Continuous data were expressed as mean+sd, and categorical data were summarized by frequency tables. Bivariate analysis of the factors associated with abortion or childbirth, unintended or intended pregnancy, and repeat or first pregnancy, was conducted using logistic regression model. Significant factors, P<0.05, were entered into multivariable logistic regression analysis and a stepwise procedure was employed to select a \"best\" fit. Results: From the multivariable logistic regression analysis, significant predictors of abortion were the occupation of pregnant teenage girls (students vs. others, OR=4.68, 95%CI [1.52,14.40], p=0.007), partners of this conception (boyfriends vs. husbands, OR=12.8, 95%CI [3.35,48.8], p=0.0002), elapsed time (in months) between the last menstrual cycle before this pregnancy and this clinical visit (OR=0.40 per 1-month increase, 95%CI [0.24,0.64], p=0.0001), and support of childbirth from parents, boyfriends, or husbands (yes vs. no, OR=0.04, 95%CI [0.01,0.18], p<0.0001). Significant predictors of an unintended pregnancy were the occupation of pregnant teenage girls (students vs. others, OR=3.16, 95% CI [0.95,13.80] , p=0.06), partners of this conception (boyfriends vs. husbands, OR=8.87, 95%CI [4.07,20.24], p<.0001), partners' occupation (students vs. others, OR=8.90, 95% CI [1.35, \u221e], p=0.02), and use of contraception (yes vs. no, OR=2.34, 95% CI [1.06,5.30], p=0.03). Significant predictors of a repeat pregnancy were alcohol drinking (yes vs. no, OR=2.99, 95% CI [1.33,6.68], p=0.008), use of contraception (yes vs. no, OR=2.99, 95% CI [1.08,6.18], p=0.033), and duration from first intercourse to this pregnancy (in years )(OR=2.60 per 1-year increase, 95% CI [1.69,4.0], p<0.0001). Conclusions: Significant factors associated with pregnant teenage girls' choice of resolution were their occupation, partners of conception, and support of childbirth from their parents, boyfriends, or husbands. The teenage girls who chose abortion were more likely to use contraception and most of their pregnancies were unintended. Repeat pregnancy was associated with smoking and alcohol drinking.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":209135864,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1556184842","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Dear editor, \n\u00a0 \nThe COVID-19 pandemic caused a lot of changes in society and the economy as well as individual, physical, and mental health. COVID-19 might cause acute respiratory syndrome, coagulopathy, vascular failure, and organ damage1-3. In the study by Huang L et al., 2469 patients who recovered from severe COVID-19 were followed up for two years, the longest follow-up until now. They demonstrated that COVID-19 survivors had remarkably lower health status than the general population after two years and suggested urgent exploration into the pathogenesis of the disease4. Otherwise, there were some important issues with this study. First, it was not an international study that included different geographic regions, ethnicities, races, and countries. Another important point was that 80 percent of patients experienced mild or no symptoms of this disease which were excluded from this study. However, COVID -19 affected their health conditions as well as severe patients.\u00a0 It is clear that exposure to the virus in the recent pandemic is unavoidable and no one can be sure about the previous infection of the studied cases.Furthermore, \u00a0many people were reluctant to take a PCR test despite mild symptoms and also, the PCR test has a high false-negative rate, which is affected by the sampling method and the time of interval5, 6. It is suggested researchers investigate the COVID-19 effects on the general population. \nMost COVID-19 patients reported breathlessness and reduced fitness, which might be related to pulmonary damage and altered oxygen uptake into the red blood cells (RBC), leading to hypoxemia. \nSome studies demonstrated that COVID-19 altered RBC morphology and revealed a higher percentage of elongated RBC(7). The RBC deformability was significantly increased in COVID-19 patients7. Nader et al. showed that RBC aggregation increased in COVID-19 patients and correlated positively with the hospitalization length8. In a recent study, it was found that oxidation and fragmentation of ankyrin, spectrin beta, and the N-terminal cytosolic domain of band 3 (AE1) may cause RBCs disability in COVID- 19 patients, who could respond to environmental changes in hemoglobin oxygen saturation\/oxidant stress. Nonetheless, there were no alterations in hematological parameters, such as RBC count, hematocrit, or mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration9. Based on these reports, the count of normal RBC is admissible, but maybe the function of RBCs in oxygen transfer have changes. \nThe above-mentioned studies indicated the temporary effects of COVID-19 on RBCS, but COVID-19 may cause some long-term effects on RBCs10. There is enough evidence indicating that the numbers of RBC and hematocrit (HCT) increase significantly in response to hypoxic environments, similar to changes that occur by living in high-altitude places11. With the large-scale outbreak of the COVID epidemic worldwide, the number of people using protective masks has increased rapidly. Using masks can cause problems, such as hypoxia symptoms, which increase RBC mass and HCT for a long time12,13. According to recent studies, wearing a mask can alter peripheral Spo2 after two hours, and it can cause small but significant changes in cerebral blood flow (CBF) and cerebral blood oxygen saturation (StO2) while wearing diffrent types of masks (surgical and FFP2)14,15. \nBased on the above-mentioned studies, the significant changes in RBC functions after the COVID-19 pandemic can be concluded, however the definitive diagnosis is not possible using routine laboratory tests. According to long-term changes in RBC count, the lack of any population-based studies on RBC changes before and after the COVID-19 pandemic, and the key role of RBC count in diagnosing disease, especially in anemia, more investigations seem to be necessary. Reference intervals need to be re-examined in the new health conditions after the COVID-19 pandemic.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":259051788,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.58803\/rbes.v1i2.9","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/rbes.rovedar.com\/index.php\/RBES\/article\/download\/9\/12","status":"HYBRID"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Interviews with educators from five school districts in Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and Washington describe three approaches to curriculum renewal: community-initiated approaches, state-directed reform efforts, and school-initiated efforts. All school districts found that community-based support and involvement of community members were responsible for their success. Projects included preserving Native American language and culture, meeting new state curriculum guidelines, and conducting drug and alcoho' abuse prevention programs. Successful program implementation depended on community resources such as specialized knowledge, technical assistance, and fiscal resources. Other important elements were effective communication between the school district and community members, adequate funding, community members holding leadership roles, and school district support of community efforts. School districts reported that projects developed a strong sense of local ownership and input, created classroom materials and approaches that had high utility, kept the district current with the latest in curriculum and instructional development, and utilized resources to assist school districts in meeting new state curriculum standards. Oth':r benefits of the community-based approach included improved collaboration and understanding, increased community unity, and improved student-parent relationships.

The need for a 'three-kingdoms' approach makes it futile to explain the English civil wars in terms of changes in English society. Moreover, war broke out within two polities, Scotland and England, which had become more orderly. In England, civil war would seem more likely in the mid-sixteenth century than in the mid-seventeenth because the succession was questionable. Under Charles I the Stuart succession was unchallenged and secure. And yet the civil war happened, and much of the blame for this lay with Charles I. The English Legacy of James I James had been an unusually successful King of Scotland, apparently taming both nobility and kirk. In England he has received a more hostile press, especially regarding his later years. His infatuation with male favourites, especially George Villiers, Duke of Buckingham, attracted much criticism; sodomy was a capital offence. In the early 1620s Buckingham seemed to control key areas of policy-making, including foreign policy, and developed dubious money-making schemes to fund his expensive tastes. James was tired and disillusioned. He had hoped to bring Scots and English together after centuries of conflict, but the English dismissed the Scots as beggarly and verminous. He found governing England tedious; its government was larger and more complex than Scotland's and involved far more paperwork.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":217339726,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3014376484","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1017\/9781139057578.010","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Rev. B 92 115404 (2015)]. In this paper, we report a way to improve the valley splitting and the valley injecting efficiency of the graphene\/Ni heterostructure. By intercalating an Au monolayer between the graphene and the Ni, the split can be increased up to 50 meV. However, the valley injecting efficiency is not improved because the splitted valley area of graphene moves away from the Fermi level. Then, we mend the deviation by covering a monolayer of Cu on the graphene. As a result, the valley injecting efficiency of the Cu\/graphene\/Au\/Ni heterostructure reaches 10%, which is more than 60% improvement compared to the simple graphene\/Ni heterostructure. Then we theoretically design a valley-injection device based on the Cu\/graphene\/Au\/Ni heterostructure and demonstrate that the valley injection can be easily switched solely by changing the magnetization direction of Ni, which can be used to generate and control the valley-polarized current.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":250792867,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1088\/1674-1056\/ab8db2","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Oxidative stress is caused by an imbalance between the production of reactive oxygen species and a biological system's ability to readily detoxify the reactive intermediates or easily repair the resulting damage. The aim of this study was to investigate whether intermittent hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) causes an increase of oxidative stress in male and female rats and whether there are differences in the amount of stress between the sexes. Healthy male (N=6) and female (N=6) Sprague-Dawley rats 10 weeks old were housed doubly in shoebox style cages with free access to standard rat chow and tap water, maintained on a 12:12 hour light: dark cycle. The animals were divided into control group and HBO group. Rats from the HBO group were treated in a hyperbaric chamber with 100% O2 for two hours a day during four consecutive days.[1] On the fifth day, arterial blood samples were collected to determine Ferric reducing ability of plasma(FRAP) and Thiobarbituric Acid Reactive Substances (TBARS ; based on reaction of malonilaldehyde (MDA) with thiobarbituric acid). Student t-test was used for statistical analysis. Male control rats have significantly higher FRAP than female controls (FRAP mM 0.05\u00b10.03, 0.16\u00b10.02, P<0.001), while there was no difference in TBARS between sexes in the control group (TBARS \u03bcM 0.56\u00b10.37, 0.27\u00b10.08, P=0.132). Four days of HBO therapy did not cause any significant changes in FRAP or TBARS in male rats compared to male controls, whereas TBARS were significantly higher after HBO therapy in female rats compared to female controls with no changes in FRAP. The results of this study may indicate that male rats have higher level of oxidative stress in control conditions, while four days of HBO therapy caused increase of oxidative stress only in female rats. Further studies are needed to conclusively interpret differences in maintaining oxidative balance between sexes in control conditions and during exposure to HBO therapy.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":90346640,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2754627317","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"85E Ridge in the Bay of Bengal region is one of the most interesting and enigmatic geotectonic features in the Indian off-shore region with its surprisingly low free-air gravity anomalies. As the marine field studies are highly expensive, it is proposed here, to simulate Marine Magneto Telluric (MMT) response across this ridge to estimate the resolvability of layer parameters like thickness and resistivity followed by period band to penetrate the signal to the desired depth using forward modeling. Similar to land MT measurements, the MT data acquired in the marine environment also gets distorted due to coast effect. In order to derive this response, a synthetic initial model has been considered which extends to 800 km on either side of the coast line and down to 600 km depth with a water column of 4 km. A finite element algorithm has been utilized to accommodate inclined continental shelf in the numerical model. In the period range of 40-4000 sec, Ridge response is well reflected in the apparent resistivity, phase, magnetic field components (Hx, Hy), and Tipper in TE and TM modes, whereas electric field components (Ex, Ey) are less pronounced. The present study reveals that the distortion in MMT responses due to coast effect is noticeable up to 200 km from the sea-land boundary for periods between 10 and 4000 sec. As the 85E Ridge is located at a distance of 500 km from the coast, the MMT measurements made here are free from coast effect. Data needs to be acquired for a period of at least 8 days to get more than 10 stacks of 4096 sec and therefore for better results.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":197468216,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"HE reduction of aircraft propulsion system noise is an area of great research interest. Communities around airports demand that noise levels be reduced to their lowest practical level, and governments have responded with more stringent noise requirements. Through past research and development efforts, the aeronautics community has reduced noise levels of propulsion systems significantly. However, with regulated noise levels being continually reduced, we need to make propulsion systems of the future even quieter. One of the many approaches being used to address this need is the use of acoustic liners in the noise producing regions of aircraft engines. While the meaning of the term \"acoustic liner\" varies somewhat, for our purposes, an acoustic liner is a passive noise damping surface in a flow passage. In propulsion systems, these liners are commonly used in the fan and nozzle sections of the flow path. Liners usually consist of an acoustic absorbing material covered by a perforated face sheet. The face sheet provides a relatively smooth surface over which the fluid flow may pass. The absorbing material may be divided up into small cells, but in this experiment, the material was in bulk sheets. The existing literature contains a large number of studies of turbulent boundary layers over porous walls with injection or suction, but the number of studies without injection or suction is much smaller.

+{"text":"The thermal precipitation and denaturation of conalbumin was studied separately at different pH values, low concentrations of an anionic detergent and salt concentrations relevant to food products. Sodium dodecylsulphate (SDS) was used as a model detergent and was found to lower the limit for thermal precipitation from pH 10\u201311 to pH 6\u20138 leaving a neutral pH region open for heat processing without any decrease in solubility. This protection against precipitation took place at the expense of a reduced thermal stability of conalbumin. Analysis at linearly increasing temperatures was shown to be a productive method to study the coupling between the thermal precipitation and denaturation processes. This coupling was examined at two heating rates, 10 and 1.25\u00b0C\/min, respectively. Two types of precipitation behaviour were identified, a rapidly and a slowly sedimenting one. At the lower heating rate and under conditions where rapidly sedimenting precipitates were formed there was a close correlation between precipitation and denaturation. The precipitation was, however, always completed prior to denaturation. When approaching conditions where no precipitation took place, which also implied a successive transition towards slowly sedimenting precipitates, the precipitation process became delayed compared to denaturation. Precipitation could thus be registered at temperatures far above those of complete denaturation. The precipitates formed showed a considerable variation in particle size and water holding capacity.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":83864381,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1965449220","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1002\/JSFA.2740290310","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"BACKGROUND: Preterm neonates with intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) often acquire post hemorrhagic ventricle dilation (PHVD), which, when severe, can lead to neurological impairment. Cranial 2D ultrasound (US) images are used for the diagnosis and monitoring of PHVD; however, there is no consensus on the use of 2D US images to guide treatment. This can lead to delays in interventions, and the potential for brain injury. We have developed a 3D US system that has been shown to accurately detect changes ventricle volumes (VV).\n OBJECTIVES: We investigate the utility of using 3D and 2D US measurements to determine thresholds for treatment of neonates with PHVD and to predict the need for further treatments.\n DESIGN\/METHODS: Neonates were imaged twice weekly in accordance to a protocol approved by the research ethics board. 3D US images were manually segmented to obtain VV. 2D measurements included ventricle index, anterior horn widths, third ventricle width, and largest thalamo-occipital distance. The rate of change for each measurement was calculated. Decisions to perform ventricular taps (VTs) to relieve intracranial pressure were made independently by neurosurgeons who were blinded to study images. Receiver operator curves (ROC) were generated using the sensitivity and specificity of the rates of change of sonographic parameters in predicting the need for V T. For each parameter optimal threshold for intervention was estimated by the area under ROC; and positive and negative predictive values (PPV, NPV) were calculated. Additionally, we investigated whether US measurements predicted the need for multiple interventions.\n RESULTS: 23 neonates with PHVD were enrolled, 8 required interventions. The best predictor to determine initial intervention was the rate of change in VV when a threshold of >2.04 cm3\/day was used within the first three weeks of life (NPV and PPV of 1) and, this measurement was able to determine if then a patient would require further interventions when a threshold of -0.04 cm3\/day was used looking at imaging time points after the first intervention (NPV and PPV of 1). 2D measurements were less sensitive and\/or less specific (sensitivity of 88-57%, specificity of 100-79%, PPV of 0.88-0.57 and NPV of 0.93-0.79).\n CONCLUSION: 3D US VV can predict the requirement for interven-tional ventricular tap in neonates with IVH, and can identify patients that have resolving PHVD following initial intervention, with higher sensitivity and specificity than 2D US measurements. These findings show promise for early classification of neonates using 3D US for prediction of interven-tional therapy, potentiallyaiding in timely management of these patients.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":252420605,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1093\/pch\/21.supp5.e86","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC9511386","status":"GREEN"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Approximately 70 percent of ASD diagnoses are accompanied by an additional condition such as Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), learning impairment, depression, or anxiety. Children with ASD may also have other disorders [1] such as: intellectual disability, epilepsy, Tourette's syndrome, difficulty sleeping, and many suffer gastrointestinal dysfunctions. Despite numerous studies on ASD there is little consensus on the mechanism, including whether the cause is genetic or environmental. Approximately 10% of ASD cases have known contributing gene mutations, while 90% are classified as idiopathic, which are thought to be caused by environmental factors.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":219101862,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3019665294","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.33696\/immunology.1.019","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.33696\/immunology.1.019","status":"HYBRID"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"For years, the contribution of genetic components to the pathology of sleep disorders has been increasingly recognised as important. There is growing evidence that genetic factors are involved in the occurrence of sleep terrors. Twin studies provide invaluable information regarding genetic and environmental factors that can affect the manifestation of the disease. However, most previous twin studies on sleep terrors have been done retrospectively or with a sample that was too small to yield conclusive results. The objective of this thesis was to determine the relative contribution of genetic and environmental factors to the manifestation of sleep terrors in a large cohort of early childhood twins followed prospectively. The results of the present study confirm that sleep terrors are a partially hereditary parasomnia. Genetic factors play an important role in the manifestation of sleep terrors at a very young age. Of the total phenotypic variance in sleep terrors, the proportions due to genetic influences were over 40% for both 18 and 30 month old twins. At 18 months, the polychoric correlations were 0.63 for MZ and 0.36 for DZ twins. These values were 0, 68 (MZ) and 0, 24 (DZ) at 30 months. These results strongly support the heritability of sleep terrors. There also seems to be continuity in genetic effects with the persistence of sleep terror symptoms at the age of 30 months.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":68463360,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"765164655","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Cyber-physical systems (CPS) are finding increasing use, whether in factories, autonomous vehicles, or smart buildings. Monitoring the execution of CPSs is crucial since CPSs directly influence their physical environment. Like the actual system, the monitoring application must be designed, developed, and tested. Mobile CPSs, in contrast to stationary CPSs, bring the additional requirement that instances can dynamically join, leave, or fail during execution time. This dynamic behavior must also be considered in the monitoring application. This paper presents CPSAML, a language and code generation framework for the model-driven development of mobile CPS systems, including a cockpit application for monitoring and interacting with such a system. The pipeline starts with the formulation of the system and the CPSs it contains at an abstract level by the system architect using a domain-specific modeling language. Next, this model is transformed into SysML 2 for further extension and richer specificity by system engineers on a more technical level. In the last step of the pipeline, the SysML 2 model is used to generate code for the CPS devices, a system-wide digital twin, and the cockpit application mentioned above. This cockpit enables the operator to configure and apply the monitoring and interaction with the system during runtime. We evaluate our CPSAML language and code generation framework on an Indoor Transport System case study with Roomba vacuum cleaner robots.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":253421763,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1145\/3550356.3563134","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/dl.acm.org\/doi\/pdf\/10.1145\/3550356.3563134","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"7574 Background: Patients (pts) with relapsed aggressive NHL are usually treated with intensive platinum-based chemotherapy regimens prior to stem cell transplant (SCT). This study was designed to learn the toxicity and efficacy of adding 4 doses of rituximab to the standard DHAP salvage chemotherapy regimen.\n\n\nMETHODS\nEligible pts had biopsy-proven relapsed CD20+ NHL and were eligible for platinum-based chemotherapy. Pts were treated with rituximab 375 mg\/m2 d1,8,15, and 22 as well as cis-platinum 100 mg\/m2 d3, cytosine arabinoside 2 g\/m2 IV q 12 hours x two doses d4, dexamethasone 40 mg PO\/IV d3-6, and G-CSF d5-14. Pts were restaged after 1 and 2 cycles; responding pts could proceed to SCT or further cycles of DHAP at MD discretion. There was no provision for rituximab maintenance. The goal was to achieve an overall response rate (ORR) of \u2265 75%.\n\n\nRESULTS\nFifty-eight pts were enrolled between 10\/29\/00 and 6\/20\/03. The median age was 63 years (range, 43-83). One pt was ineligible because the tumor was CD20-. All 57 eligible pts completed one cycle; 48 pts completed 2 cycles. The ORR was 70% (40\/57) with 16 (28%) CR\/CRu and 24 (42%) PR. For all 57 pts, the median TTP was 13.1 months (mos) (95% CI: 7.3-18.2) and the median OS 30.5 mos (95% CI: 17.8-52.5). Seventeen pts (30%) proceeded to SCT. The median duration of response (DR), time to progression (TTP) and overall survival (OS) for the SCT pts were 41.6, 42.3, and 43.6 mos, respectively. The median DR, TTP, and OS for the 25 pts who responded to RDHAP but did not proceed to SCT were 12.4, 13.1, and 38.8 mos, respectively. The incidence of grade 3 and 4 thrombocytopenia was 53% and 39%, respectively. The incidence of grade 3 and 4 neutropenia was 11% and 68%, respectively. Six pts (11%) had nephrotoxicity-five grade 3 and two grade 4 (one pt had both) and one pt required dialysis.\n\n\nCONCLUSIONS\nThe addition of rituximab to standard DHAP is safe with similar toxicity profile to DHAP alone. Despite a high ORR, the CR rate and the % pts proceeding to SCT in this cooperative group setting remain low. New agents are needed that can be added to these regimens to increase the effectiveness and reduce toxicity to allow more pts to proceed to SCT.

+{"text":"The main purpose of this investigation is to study the effect of near miscible CO2 injection in different porous mediums on both lab and field scales. This effect can be traced by the change of two-phase gas-oil relative permeability curves. In this work, the experiments have been performed on three rock types (i.e. sandstone, dolomite, and artificial fractured sandstone) based on an incremental pressure algorithm approaching a near miscible condition. Lab-scale inverse modeling has been used to calculate relative permeability curves. Based on the experimental results, 85%of minimum miscibility pressure was defined as the near miscible pressure. Comprising the relative permeability curves in immiscible and near-miscible conditions, the results show that this change has become less significant from sandstone core type to artificial fractured. In other words, near miscible CO2 injection would be recommended in rock types with a lower RQI. In addition, it was concluded that in the case of artificial fractured, simple conventional relative permeability methods obtain the same results as sophisticated inverse modeling method. Furthermore, in order to validate the lab scale results, the field scale modeling of the candidate reservoir was done using the 3D compositional reservoir simulator. 83% of minimum miscibility pressure was defined as near miscible pressure. Moreover, the simulation results confirmed lab-scale data regarding the recovery factor in different rock types. Additionally, the economic evaluation (NPV analysis) showed that use of near miscible CO2 injection in lower RQI reservoirs was more economical rather than the other scenarios.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":55712165,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"263593750","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.22078\/JPST.2015.443","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The yield benefits derived from lower pressure operation can result in an attractive payout for a conversion project.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":107958407,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"120768060","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Stochastic nature of variables implies Probabilistic approaches suitable for Reliability analysis of Flood defences especially for low laying area like Netherlands. Generally, Monte Carlo simulation is used to find accurate failure probabilities but it requires a lot of simulations for low failure probability cases and for small variances in result. A failure case of a river dike by overtopping is considered at the lower reach of a tidal river, where there is always a threat of dike failure due to extreme events of (a) river flood, or (b) sea level fluctuations, or (c)coincidence of both extremes. For such cases, a hydrodynamic model is needed for flood routing and finding water level in each segment of the dike considered as series system of failure. During Monte Carlo simulation, it constitutes a loop through the hydrodynamic model for each random boundary, which makes the simulation time consuming and costly. In such cases, reduction in computational effort is achieved by using 'importance sampling' and 'response database'. The method is applied to estimate two-days overflowing probability of 80 km long dike in tidal reach at the lower part of river Scheldt and western scheldt estuary. A simple model is simulated in MatLab, described by a linear performance function or limit state function with uncorrelated non-Gaussian input variables. Hydrodynamic model SOBEK is used to predict water level at different stretch of dike in random boundaries conditions. Importance sampling and Response Database is used for probabilistic loops in Sobek with for time saving techniques.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":15095648,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"249306743","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Even with the emphasis placed on racial value as a criterion for Lebensborn involvement, the agency might appear to have been a curious blend of an SS \"fringe benefit\" combined with a charitable SS gesture toward unwed mothers. In reality, Lebensborn functioned as one unit within a comprehensive eugenics policy begun earlier in 1931 when the Reichsf\u00fchrer issued his famous \"marriage decree\" to the SS.

In this work, a fuzzy intelligent inductor\u2013capacitor\u2013inductor hybrid power filter is designed to reduce harmonics in the distribution line. The shunt active power filter and passive filter design and consideration have been improved. Since the nature of proportional integral control is only efficient with linear variations and the real condition of the distribution system is always varying nonlinearly, to create a minimum steady error, fuzzy-tuned proportional integral control is designed to intelligently consider the input changes and revise the decision rules using fuzzy reasoning. The content of the harmonic current with respect to the varying load is momentarily commutated. Thus, using Clarke's transformation, the errors are summed with instantaneous power that is converted to a compensation current with the hysteresis band monitored pulse generator.

+{"text":"De novo formation of blood vessels is a pivotal mechanism during cancer development. During the past few years, antiangiogenic drugs have been developed to target tumor vasculature. However, because of limitations and adverse effects observed with current therapies, there is a strong need for alternative antiangiogenic strategies. Using specific anti\u2010junctional adhesion molecule (JAM)\u2010B antibodies and Jam\u2010b\u2010deficient mice, we studied the role in antiangiogenesis of JAM\u2010B. We found that antibodies against murine JAM\u2010B, an endothelium\u2010specific adhesion molecule, inhibited microvessel outgrowth from ex vivo aortic rings and in vitro endothelial network formation. In addition, anti\u2010JAM\u2010B antibodies blocked VEGF signaling, an essential pathway for angiogenesis. Moreover, increased aortic ring branching was observed in aortas isolated from Jam\u2010b\u2010deficient animals, suggesting that JAM\u2010B negatively regulates proangiogenic pathways. In mice, JAM\u2010B expression was detected in de novo\u2010formed blood vessels of tumors, but anti\u2010JAM\u2010B antibodies unexpectedly did not reduce tumor growth. Accordingly, JAM\u2010B deficiency in vivo had no impact on blood vessel formation, suggesting that targeting JAM\u2010B in vivo may be offset by other proangiogenic mechanisms. In conclusion, despite the promising effects observed in vitro, targeting JAM\u2010B during tumor progression seems to be inefficient as a stand\u2010alone antiangiogenesis therapy.\u2014Meguenani, M., Miljkovic\u2010Licina, M., Fagiani, E., Ropraz, P., Hammel, P., Aurrand\u2010Lions, M., Adams, R.

+{"text":"This thesis studies a novel nonlinear spring mechanism that is comprised of a cantilever wrapping around a curved surface as it deflects. Static force versus displacement tests and dynamic \"initial displacement\" tests verified the spring theory for a large range of oscillator parameters. Various human motion energy harvester configurations that use the nonlinear spring were numerically optimized for power, robustness, and adaptivity. Based on the optimization results, both the nonlinear and linear devices studied in this thesis generate more power per volume and per mass when excited at one's hip while walking than current commercial energy harvesters. The two degree-of-freedom (2DOF) nonlinear oscillator is more adaptive to different excitation signals and resistant to power decay when parasitic damping is present than the IDOF and 2DOF linear systems. These significant advantages are caused by the 2DOF nonlinear system harvesting its optimal power at large electromagnetic damping coefficients, whereas the optimal power generation for the linear systems occurs at low electromagnetic damping coefficients. This thesis also examined what electromagnetic damping coefficients can be generated by magnet-and-coil geometries that satisfy the energy harvester constraints. The final chapter of this thesis investigates a load cell that uses the stiffening spring to maintain high resolution over a large range of forces and prevent large forces from damaging the load cell. Future work will include testing a full energy harvester prototype and exploring other applications of the nonlinear spring. Thesis Supervisor: Alexander H.

+{"text":"The antitumor activity of IFNis well established. However, the role of the plasmacytoid dendritic cell (PDC), the major producer of IFNupon viral infection, in tumor biology is unknown. We sought to study the presence and function of PDC in a human solid tumor. Here, we demonstrate that PDCs infiltrate tumor tissue of patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Functional activity of PDC was examined by using CpG motif containing oligonucleotides, a defined microbial stimulus for PDCs (recognized via toll-like receptor 9). We found that HNSCC diminished the ability of PDC to produce IFNin response to CpG motif containing oligonucleotide. Tumor-induced down-regulation of toll-like receptor 9 was identified as one mechanism likely contributing to impaired PDC function within the tumor environment. In tumor-draining lymph nodes, suppression of CpG-induced IFNproduction was less pronounced than in single-cell suspensions of primary tumor tissue. In these lymph nodes, CpG-induced IFNproduction was associated with increased levels of interferon-induced protein 10 and IFNand activation of CD4 and CD8 T cells. These results show for the first time the presence of PDCs in human solid tumor tissue and that tumors suppress the capacity of PDCs to produce IFN. PDCs, which in the absence of appropriate stimulation are reported to promote regulatory CD8 T cells, may contribute to an impaired T-cell-mediated immune response in HNSCC.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":27784838,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":": In Northern Thailand, visiting sex workers alongside male peers has historically been a bonding technique that enables men to perform masculinity among their male co-workers. While research uncovering men ' s work-based visits to sex workers is limited, it has been found that men who do business with each other may provide or expect commercial sex visits as part of workplace negotiations; this has been considered \" an unremarkable aspect of male professional life \" (VanLandingham et al. 1998, 2003). Drawing on one year of ethnographic fieldwork in Northern Thailand, this research utilises the lens of multiple masculinities to assert that workplace bonding in the modern era both perpetuates and challenges gender inequalities. This chapter first examines the gendered effects of visits to commercial sex establishments among male co-workers. By reviewing methods through which male co-workers perform masculinities in relation to commercial sex, this arti-cle will argue that workplace negotiations of manhood through the purchase of commercial sex work affects both men and women. This chapter will conclude by affirming that men who bond through the purchasing of commercial sex create homosocial environments that objectify women and sustain glass ceilings for women in the workplace.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":240716972,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1515\/9783110651874-010","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYNCND","url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1515\/9783110651874-010","status":"HYBRID"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"FACULTY OF ENGINEERING AND APPLIED SCIENCE SCHOOL OF ELECTRONICS AND COMPUTER SCIENCE Doctor of Philosophy by Sarvapali Dyanand Ramchurn In this thesis, we propose a panoply of tools and techniques to manage inter-agent dependencies in open, distributed multi-agent systems that have significant degrees of uncertainty. In particular, we focus on situations in which agents are involved in repeated interactions where they need to negotiate to resolve conflicts that may arise between them. To this end, we endow agents with decision making models that exploit the notion of trust and use persuasive techniques during the negotiation process to reduce the level of uncertainty and achieve better deals in the long run. Firstly, we develop and evaluate a new trust model (called CREDIT) that allows agents to measure the degree of trust they should place in their opponents. This model reduces the uncertainty that agents have about their opponents' reliability. Thus, over repeated interactions, CREDIT enables agents to model their opponents' reliability using probabilistic techniques and a fuzzy reasoning mechanism that allows the combination of measures based on reputation (indirect interactions) and confidence (direct interactions). In so doing, CREDIT takes a wider range of behaviour-influencing factors into account than existing models, including the norms of the agents and the institution within which transactions occur. We then explore a novel application of trust models by showing how the measures developed in CREDIT ca be applied negotiations in multiple encounters. Specifically we show that agents that use CREDIT are able to avoid unreliable agents, both during the selection of interaction partners and during the negotiation process itself by using trust to adjust their negotiation stance. Also, we empirically show that agents are able to reach good deals with agents that are unreliable to some degree (rather than completely unreliable) and with those that try to strategically exploit their opponent. Secondly, having applied CREDIT to negotiations, we further extend the application of trust to reduce uncertainty about the reliability of agents in mechanism design (where the honesty of agents is elicited by the protocol). Thus, we develop Trust-Based Mechanism Design (TBMD) that allows agents using a trust model (such as CREDIT) to reach efficient agreements that choose the most reliable agents in the long run. In particular, we show that our mechanism enforces truth-telling from the agents (i.e. it is incentive","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":61191762,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2184407367","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In giving their reasons for verdicts and sentences, the majority of judges accounted for the assaults by drawing on psychological concepts and constructs. These psychological explanations or causal attributions were grouped into one or more of eight categories: alcohol and drug abuse, biological or sexual drive, psychopathology, dysfunctional family upbringing, stress and trauma, character or personality trait, emotional state, and loss of control. The causal attributions in all categories systematically reformulated deliberate acts of violence into non-deliberate and non-violent acts. Psychologizing attributions, that is, causal attributions that functioned to conceal the violence and mitigate the perpetrator's responsibility, accounted for 97 percent of attributions. Through line-by-line analyses of the full text of one judgment, we show how psychologizing attributions are combined in use with other linguistic devices to (i) conceal violence, (ii) mitigate perpetrators' responsibility, (iii) conceal victims' resistance, and (iv) blame or pathologize victims.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":142984872,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1970128214","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1177\/0957926504045031","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

About 0.5 kg. of piezoelectric material was employed to damp the ASTREX testbed, a 5000 kg structure. Emphasis was placed upon designing the damping to enable high bandwidth robust feedback control. Resistive piezoelectric shunting provided the necessary broadband damping. The piezoelectric element was incorporated into a steel flextensional device in order to concentrate damping into the 30 to 40 Hz frequency modes at the rolloff region of the proposed compensator. The effective stiffness and damping of the flextensional device was experimentally verified.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":107147240,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"776758041","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1117\/12.152815","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

A new powerful CAD tool for the design and analysis of this kind of antennas is presented High computational efficiency, accuracy and reliability of the sohare are demonstrated by specific examples and by comparkon between simulations and measurements. I. INTRODUCTION Flat profile and high performances in terms of efficiency and power make slotted waveguide arrays attractive for many radar applications. Such antennas typically employ hundreds or thousands of radiating slots to achieve the required constraints in terms of beam width and gain. The analysis of large slotted waveguide arrays, therefore, cannot be carried out by full-wave methods because of the unaffordable computational effort required. For the same reason, the accurate synthesis of such antennas necessarily relies on approximate methods. In (14) Elliott has presented a synthesis method that makes use of equivalent circuits for the isolated slot and for the whole array. The method is very fast and at the same time very accurate, as it accounts both for intemal and external slot mutual couplings. In this paper a powerful CAD tool is presented for the design and analysis of large slotted waveguide arrays having a wide range of capabilities: fixed or scanning beam, single or multiple beams, very low side lobes pattems, shaped beams such as cosecant or flat top pattems. The SWAN (Slotted Waveguide ANtennas analysis and design) CAD package is based on Elliott's theory, with a number of extensions and generalizations, some of which are described in (5-91. The capabilities of this software are shown by means of two design examples. The high performances obtained and the good agreement between simulation and measurements confirms the accuracy of the method and the reliability of the software.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":44841801,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2133285381","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The experiment consisted of non-driving laboratory tests, including visual and cognitive tests, and a driving assessment in a real traffic situation. Results showed that, compared to the control group, elderly drivers with a history of accidents, have poorer performance on the cognitive tests. Moreover, data from the multiple regression analysis showed that the two measures entering the model were Zazzo time and movement perception (age and group being controlled).

+{"text":"Summary form only given. The use of alkylated sulphonic acid dopant provides the possibility of blending conducting complex with matrix polymers without a use of auxiliary solvents. The importance of the long alkyl side chains has already been shown with alkylated polythiophenes; the modification of the interfacial energy due to the hydrophobic alkyl-groups results in solubility of the polymers also in solid state with polymers like ethylene-co-vinylacetates. Further, the control of the non-equilibrium phase separation kinetics preferably through spinodal decomposition results in the creation of multiple percolation pathways with very low thresholds. We have similarly extended our studies to mixing polyaniline-DBSA pair because the alkyl chain in the end of the dopant offers similar hydrophobic effects. Again, we have used ethylene-co-vinylacetates as the matrix polymers as they provide the possibility of the control for the hydrophobicity\/hydrophilicity ratio. N-alkylation of polyaniline along with the doping with DBSA has offered us another tool to investigate the importance of interactive forces. Our initial investigations show that a competition between the interactions (either hydrogen bonding or hydrophobic forces), has a great importance in the mixing. Similarly we have been able to control the percolative pathways of the conducting complex through the non-equilibrium phase separation kinetics.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":93536550,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1971880199","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/STSM.1994.834805","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"OBJECTIVE\nTo test the hypothesis of an association between a polymorphism in the matrix metalloproteinase 3 (MMP-3) gene promoter and the susceptibility, severity, and progression of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and to further document the association between HLA-DRB1 alleles encoding the shared epitope (SE) and the severity and progression of RA.\n\n\nMETHODS\nPatients with early RA (n = 103) were included in this prospective study. A total radiographic damage score (TDS; by the Sharp\/van der Heijde method) was used to quantify RA severity at baseline and after 4 years of followup. The 5A\/6A biallelic polymorphism in the MMP-3 gene promoter was analyzed using fluorescence-based polymerase chain reaction (PCR). HLA-DRB1 genotyping was performed using PCR methods. Control subjects (n = 127) were unrelated healthy individuals.\n\n\nRESULTS\nMMP-3 allele carriage rates and allele and genotype frequencies did not differ between patients and controls. The MMP-3 6A\/6A genotype was associated with the highest TDS both at baseline and after a 4-year followup and with the highest progression of the TDS over the 4 years of followup. The DRB1 SE+\/+ genotype was associated with the highest TDS after a 4-year followup and with the highest progression of the TDS over the 4 years of followup. Patients homozygous for MMP-3 6A and DRB1 SE had the highest progression of the TDS.\n\n\nCONCLUSION\nThis study provides the first evidence of an association between a polymorphism in the MMP-3 gene promoter and the severity and progression of RA, but not RA susceptibility. Investigation of this polymorphism could be combined with that of DRB1 gene polymorphism to improve the predictive accuracy and management strategy in early RA.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":34812344,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2062057414","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1002\/ART.10336","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The object of the present invention is that a dynamic range is extended in an electrophoresis unit and concentration differences among a plurality of samples measured simultaneously are increased. An irradiation time to the samples is adjusted during analysis without changing a sampling time. By shortening the irradiation time, a fluorescence amount of the samples is reduced to cause signal intensity detected by a detector to physically decrease. If the irradiation time is very short (several 100 msec), the irradiation time and fluorescence intensity are in a direct proportional relationship. It is known that, if the irradiation time is reduced to 1\/n, the fluorescence intensity, that is, signal intensity to be detected will be 1\/n. Thus, for data whose irradiation time is reduced to 1\/n during analysis, data obtained by multiplying a substantially measured value by n is used for data analysis as a true value to be originally acquired.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":146383881,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2939051660","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Ethmoidal sinus mucosal specimens were incubated in tissue culture, and after exposure to LTD4 the mucosal surface profile was viewed under an inverted phase-contrast microscope equipped with a VTR system on a TV monitor. LTD4 induced ultrastructural alterations, ciliostasis, development of a coarse profile and epithelial cell exfoliation. On an hourly basis, ciliary activity was measured photoelectrically on the screen. LTD4 inhibited ciliary activity in a doseand time-dependent manner at concentrations ranging from 10-6M to 10-1\u00b0 M, whereas leukotriene E4 (LTE4) had a minimal effect on the mucosa even at 10-6 M. Irrigation of the mucosa with culture medium after 5 min of exposure to 10-8 M LTD4 delayed the appearance of ciliary inhibition and alteration of the mucosal surface profile, but had no effect after 15 min exposure.

With increasing demand of human cadavers and illegal practices to obtain them, the law had to play its role, and the 'Anatomy Acts' were formed in various countries. These acts not only empowered medical teaching institutions to obtain unclaimed bodies, but also opened a gateway for willful body donation.

+{"text":"Background: Leptospirosis has been under-reported and under-diagnosed in India. Certain occupational groups such as agricultural labors, animal handlers, sewage workers, abattoir workers and miners etc. constitute high risk groups for acquiring Leptospirosis. The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of anti-Leptospiral antibodies among paddy field workers reporting with fever to a rural hospital in Pune district and thus to ascertain the extent of the problem in paddy field workers in Maharashtra , India. Settings and Design: This was a cross-sectional prospective study. A total of 160 paddy field workers were included in the study, during year 2013 to 2014. Materials and Methods: All patients who presented with clinical features were tested with IgM ELISA and MAT tests. Results: The common clinical presentation amongst the paddy farmers was myalgia and headache in association with fever. Majority of patients were in the age group 30-50 years. Total 55.2% males and 44.7% females were affected. IgM ELISA was positive in 23.8% of the patients. Total 9.4 % were positive by MAT test. The commonest serovars to which antibodies were detected was Grippotyphosa. Total 60.52% of patients with laboratory confirmed leptospirosis gave evidence of leptospirosis by Faine's criteria. Conclusions: Leptospirosis is thus an important cause of febrile illness in paddy field workers at risk and must be kept in mind in the management of such patients. The major prevailing serovars in Maharashtra, western India are Grippotyphosa and Hebdomadis, which differs from the prevalent serovars in urban areas.

+{"text":"Background: Leaf morphology is one of the most important agronomic traits in rice breeding because of its contribution to crop yield. Although many studies related to leaf phenotypes in rice have been identified, our understanding of the mechanism of grain development is still limited.Results: The drooping leaf (dr) mutant was developed from the Ilpum rice cultivar by ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS) mutagenesis. Compared with the wild-type, the dr mutant exhibited drooping leaves accompanied by a small midrib, short panicle, and reduced plant height. The phenotype of the dr mutant was caused by a mutation within a single recessive gene on chromosome 2, dr (LOC_Os02g15230), which encodes a GDSL esterase. Analysis of wild-type and mutant sequences revealed that the dr allele carried a single nucleotide substitution, glycine to aspartic acid. RNAi targeted to LOC_Os02g15230 produced the same phenotype as the dr mutation, confirming LOC_Os02g15230 as the dr gene. Microscopic observations and nutrient analysis of SiO2 revealed that silica was less abundant in mutant leaves than in wild-type leaves. Conclusions: This study suggests that the dr gene is involved in the regulation of silica deposition and that disruption of silica processes lead to all drooping leaf phenotypes.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":241814223,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.21203\/rs.3.rs-17885\/v1","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

From 1802 to 2011, 834 military schools have operated in the United States, privately and publicly funded, and including teaching components for elementary, secondary, and college levels. The importance of understanding this subject has grown as the number of military charter and public secondary schools has increased tenfold since 1999. This study's purpose was four fold, the first of which is to identify those men who have had the greatest impact on military schools in the United States. The second purpose was to illustrate that the military schools were not an educational format largely restricted to the South. The third purpose was to identify those social, political, and economy events which impacted military schools. The final purpose of this study was to establish evidence that from 1999 to 2011 the popularity of the military school format made a return. Additionally the study provided an analysis of the military school culture and an examination of the efficacy of public and charter military secondary schools compared to similar nonmilitary public and charter schools.

+{"text":"Abstract A nonlinear model of asset returns allowing for multiple shocks is specified. The nonlinear features of the model are demonstrated graphically using a 3-dimensional diagram referred to as the mean impact surface. A new class of nonlinearity tests is also developed which is compared with existing testing methodologies. Applying the framework using excess returns on US and world equities the empirical results provide strong statistical evidence that domestic and foreign shocks have nonlinear effects on expected returns in the US with the effects being determined by the sign and the size of shocks. In contrast, the effects on world expected returns from shocks in the US and the world are found to react more smoothly. The empirical nonlinearities identified are also shown to be robust to alternative choices of risk factors and distributional assumptions.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":158469735,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2884786062","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1515\/SNDE-2017-0064","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Evaluating semantic similarity of concepts is a problem that has been extensively investigated in the literature in different areas, such as Artificial Intelligence, Cognitive Science, Databases and Software Engineering. Currently, it is growing in importance in different settings, such as digital libraries, heterogeneous databases and, in particular, the Semantic Web. In such contexts, very often concepts are organized according to a taxonomy (or a hierarchy) and, in addition, are associated with structures (also referred to as feature vectors). With this regard, in general, the concept similarity measures proposed in the literature have not been conceived to address both these levels of information (taxonomy and structure), i.e., there exist contributions focusing on the similarity of hierarchically related concepts, and other proposals conceived to compare concept feature vectors. In this article, a method for evaluating similarity of concepts is presented, where both concept taxonomy and concept structures are considered. In particular, such a method has been defined by combining and revisiting (i) the information content approach introduced in [9], and further refined in [6], with regard to the comparison of concepts within the taxonomy, and (ii) a method inspired by the maximum weighted matching problem in bipartite graph [4], with regard to the comparison of feature vectors. The proposed approach is then compared with two among the most representative similarity measures defined in the literature, and a small data set shows how the proposed measure allows us to reduce the gap existing between them. 3.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":261296644,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Four hundred eighty (480) frozen bovine sera collected in 1997, 1998, 2000, 2001 and 2005 were tested using both RVF IgG and IgM ELISA performed in parallel. Additional 685 bovine sera collected in 2006 and 2007 were tested using the Virus Neutralization Test (VNT). A further 232 and 296 bovine sera collected in 2008 and 2009, respectively, were tested using IgM ELISA. The findings revealed a prevalence of anti-RVF virus IgG antibodies in cattle ranging from 0.0 - 2.5% across districts and 0.0 \u2013 2.6% across years (1997 \u2013 2005), without significant differences across districts or years. Meanwhile the prevalence of anti-RVF virus IgM antibodies in cattle ranged from 0.0 \u2013 6.3% across districts and 0.0 \u2013 2.6% across years (1997-2009). Cattle sampled in Kumi district were 7 times (Odds Ratio (OR) 7.0: 95% CL, 1.8-26.9) more likely to be seropositive than those from other districts. Furthermore, cattle sampled in 2008 were 3.4 times (OR 3.4: 95% CL 1.0-10.1) more likely to be seropositive than during other years. Regarding analysis of anti-RVF virus neutralizing antibodies, cattle from Apac district were 3.6 times (OR 3.6: 95% CL 1.9-6.7) more likely to be seropositive than those from other districts. In addition, cattle from large herds (> 100) were 5 times (OR 5.0: 95 CL 2.3 \u2013 10.8) more likely to be seropositive than those from small herds (0-50).

Organisation behaviour as a subject is therefore about understanding, or attempting to understand, the complexity of the relationships that exist in the collectivity of people and things that we call 'organisation'.

+{"text":"The development of a short pulse generator is of paramount importance for various applications. Nanosecond pulse generators (NS-PG) which can generate a pulsed voltage with 5ns of duration and 2 ns of rise and fall times have been developed. Nanosecond pulsed discharges enable higher energy efficiencies of plasma processing, whose advantages include the ability to treat gas phases, allowing this device to be used for both the treatment of NOx and ozone generation. This is possible because the intense nanosecond pulsed streamer discharge is produced without inducing arc breakdown between the electrodes. This study focuses on improving our nanosecond pulse generator by changing its insulation and dielectric medium and improving the configuration of the spark gap switch (SGS). The insulation and dielectric medium were changed from silicone oil to ethylene glycol, with \u03b5r referring to the dielectric constant. The dielectric constant of silicone oil and ethylene glycol are respectively 2.7 and 44. Therefore, characteristic impedance of silicone oil and ethylene glycol are respectively about 50 \u03a9 and 12.5 \u03a9. The pulse width in silicone oil was extended from 5.0ns to 20ns in ethylene glycol. Thus, pulse width can be varied by changing the length of the triaxial Blumlein line, with the length of the line 500 mm under the previous configuration but 120 mm using the reconfigured generator. The old gap switch path was longer than the one we have currently. Therefore, due to inductance inside the switch, we developed a low inductance new gap switch. We also developed five generators by combining the three previous factors. The output current of Generator 4 is about 2.6 times that of Generator 1. Generator 4 has the highest power, making it the best generator.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":33217504,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1923301489","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/PPC.2015.7296971","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The nonstationary Schroedinger equation is considered in a finite basis of states. The model Hamiltonian matrix corresponds to a single diabatic potential curve with a Coulombic {approx}1\/t time dependence. An arbitrary number of other diabatic potential curves are flat, i.e., time independent and have arbitrary energies. Related states are coupled by constant interactions with the Coulomb state. The resulting nonstationary Schroedinger equation is solved by the method of contour integral. Probabilities of transitions to any other state are obtained as t{yields}{infinity} in a simple analytical form for the case when the Coulomb state is populated initially (at instant of time t{yields}+0). The formulas apply both to the cases when a horizontal diabatic potential curve is crossed by the Coulomb one and to a noncrossing situation. In the limit of weak coupling, the transition probabilities are interpreted in terms of a sequence of pairwise Landau-Zener-type transitions. Mapping of the Coulomb model onto an exactly solvable exponential multistate model is established. For the special two-state case, the well-known Nikitin model is recovered.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":120751610,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2029607372","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1103\/PHYSREVA.68.012710","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

For the emission purification system, three-way catalysts, a feedback control system with a LAF (Linear Air-Fuel ratio) sensor, and a secondary air induction system were applied. To reduce CO and HC emissions during cold starting, an early catalyst activation method combining RACV (Rotary Air Control Valve) and retarded ignition timing was applied. After the catalyst activation, air-fuel ratio was controlled to maximize the purification ratio of the catalyst according to vehicle speed. For the air-fuel ratio control system, the LAF sensor was used. Furthermore, fine adjustment by the LAF feedback control reduced torque fluctuation due to the air-fuel ratio change.

There is no or limited information on the spatial variability of soil loss from rubber lands in Sri Lanka's traditional rubber growing areas. This constraint has had a significant impact on the effective management of soil conservation in rubber-growing lands. This study focuses on assessing the soil loss from the smallholder rubber-growing lands in the Kalutara District using remotely sensed satellite image-based Digital Elevation Model (DEM), rainfall grid data, and prepared soil maps with ground-level surveys by Natural Resource Management Centre (NRMC) Sri Lanka. The factors including rainfall, topography, land area and the crop-specific coefficient for the rubber-growing lands in the study area were analyzed using the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) and Geographic Information System (GIS). The study revealed that about 30% of smallholder rubber-growing lands fall under the risk to severe risk categories of soil loss while about 60% of rubber lands are under the low-risk category. About 8,500 ha of smallholder rubber lands can be categorized as risk to severe risk for soil loss whilst about 15,000 ha are under the low-risk category for soil loss. The findings of this study are useful in the implementation of an effective soil conservation management plan and has the potential in applying this methodological approach in other areas of Sri Lanka for various crops.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":259862747,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.4038\/jrrisl.v102i1.1913","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/jnl-sljo-j-jrrisl-files\/journals\/1\/articles\/1913\/64ae12d14fdc7.pdf","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Much of the accumulated experience, both published andunpublished, in residual strength tests on landslide failure surfacematerials, including the discussers' own (Hamel 1969; Hamel andFlint 1969, 1972; Hamel and Adams 1981; Hamel 2004), has beenwithmultiplereversaldirectsheartests.And,atleastinthediscuss-ers' region, the latter tests are much more commonly performed inpractice than torsional ring shear tests on landslide failure surfacematerials.We havesome questions regardingthe authors'soil samples andcomments on some of their conclusions as well as long-termstrength changes along the failure surfaces of colluvial land-slides common in many regions, including the discussers' ownAppalachian Plateau.The authors state, \"The strength recovery tests utilize remoldedspecimens from shear surface samples\" (p. 959). We wouldappreciate considerably more detail on the provenance of these\"shear surface samples\" and the remolding process. In the discuss-ers' experience, identification and sampling of soils from landslidefailure surfaces is the key to determining realistic strength param-eters. Only if the appropriate materials are identified, sampled,and tested are the test results relevant to actual landslides (thoughtest results from other materials may have significant researchimplications).Regarding the provenance of the \"shear surface samples\":1. Were they obtained from actual in situ landslide failure sur-faces for the four soils tested as described in the paper?2. If so,a. Who identified the failure surfaces in the field and obtainedthe samples?b. How thick were the failure surfaces (or shear zones) andhow were they described?c. How were the samples obtained, e.g., by drilling orexcavation?3. If not, how and where were they obtained?It is unclear from information presented on pp. 958\u2013959 of thepaper exactly what size fraction (minus No. 40 sieve? minus No.200 sieve? or other?) was used for the remolded test specimens.This should be clarified, along with any other pretreatment, e.g.,ball-milling, of soils used in the test specimens.We are unable to find in the paper the dimensions of the tor-sional ring shear specimens tested. These dimensionswould enablereaders to better visualize and understand the tests.In their investigation of strength recovery, the authors ran ringshear tests with applied effective normal stresses of 100 to 600 kPaand rest times of 1 to 90 days and with applied effective normalstresses of 100 kPa and rest times of 300 days. They found notice-ablestrength recoverywith effectivenormal stresses of100kPabutessentially negligible strength gain with effective normal stressesgreater than 100 kPa, as shown in Figs. 3 and 4 on p. 961 ofthe paper.Inspection of the legend boxes in these figures indicates thatonly limited testing was done, or at least reported, with effectivenormal stresses greater than 100 kPa. Specifically, only theMadisette clay with effective normal stresses of 200, 300, and600 kPa and the Esperanza clay with effective normal stressesof 300 and 600 kPa had effective normal stresses exceeding100 kPa. There are no test data with effective normal stresses be-tween 100 and200 kPaandonlythe Madisette clay data at200 kPawith effectivenormal stresses between 100 and 300 kPa.The pauc-ity of data here between 100 and 300 kPa makes it hard to acceptthe author's conclusion \"Strength gain is essentially negligible ateffective normal stresses greater than 100 kPa\" (p. 962). Commonsense indicates there is some effective normal stress level or range(probably specific to each individual soil, or at least specific to cer-tain ranges of soil plasticity) where the time-dependent strengthgain transitions from significant to negligible. Some experiencein the Appalachian Plateau indicates this is the case, as discussedsubsequently. This is certainly an area for further research.The authors do not recommend use of the recovered strength forlandslide remedial measures at effectivenormal stresses of 100 kPaor less because the strength gain is lost with small shear displace-ments (p. 962). We agreewith the authors on this, but note that it isnot uncommon for practitioners in the discussers'region to rely onsuch strength gains.We strongly agree with the authors that residual-level strengthbe used in all analyses of active and recent landslides and old toancient landslides for assessment of slope stability and for designof remedial measures. Whether the residual-level strength isdetermined from appropriate laboratory tests on actual failuresurface materials, from regional databases and experience (e.g.,Fleming et al. 1970; Hamel 1980, 2004), or from back-calculationof limiting equilibrium of existing landslides is a matter ofjudgment in each case.

We performed high-resolution two- and three-dimensional numerical simulations of a passive scalar in an idealized domain to study the effects of drag and different flow conditions (tides and currents) on the evolution of a passive scalar. The horizontal dispersion coefficient is quantified as a function of three non-dimensional parameters namely: the drag coefficient, C D (imparted by the obstacle); the ratio of the tidal to mean flow velocity amplitudes, \u03b7 = U T \/U M ; and an oscillatory tidal excursion length parameter, K= 2U T \/\u03c9D, where \u03c9 is the frequency and D is the diameter of an obstacle. The drag exerted by a porous obstacle blocks the flow partially and causes the deceleration of the flow, the shedding of vortices and the formation of a downstream wake. Results of the scalar field with and without drag for both uni-directional and oscillatory flow fields are presented.

Heliospheric neutral hydrogen scatters solar Lyman-\u03b1 radiation from the Sun with \"27-day\" intensity modulations observed near Earth due to the Sun's rotation combined with Earth's orbital motion.

Methods. This paper presents Cassini data from 2003\u22122004 obtained downwind near Saturn at \u223c10 AU that at times show undamped \"27-day\" waves in good agreement with the single-scattering models of Pryor et al.

+{"text":"OBJECTIVE\nSince very little is known about the health effects that household pesticides have on children, we conducted this survey to identify what pesticides are being used in the home, where they are being used and stored, and what methods are used for their disposal.\n\n\nMETHODS\nIn the spring of 1999 we conducted a survey in a community in the state of Arizona, in the United States of America, on the border with Mexico. To be eligible to participate in the survey, households had to have used a pesticide in the 6 mo prior to the survey and to have at least one child under the age of 10 years. We gathered general information on pesticide usage, storage, and disposal, in addition to specific information about each of the pesticides currently being used and\/or stored in the home.\n\n\nRESULTS\nIn the 107 households surveyed, we found 148 pesticide products, for a mean of 1.4 per household. Half of the pesticides were stored less than 4 feet (1.22 m) from the ground, at a level a child could reach. Seventy percent of all the pesticides were stored inside the home, with the kitchen being the storage room most often mentioned. The kitchen was also the room where most of the pesticides were used, with 69% of the respondents saying they had used at least one pesticide there.\n\n\nCONCLUSIONS\nFrom our research we conclude that it will be important to continue to investigate all avenues of pesticide exposure in order to fully evaluate childhood exposures. Understanding household pesticide use and developing a model of exposure will help in this process. Profiles of the use, storage, and disposal of products will also guide the development of effective education and poison prevention programs in the community.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":9768384,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2158148564","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1590\/S1020-49892001000300002","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The study is based on the first wave of the Norwegian Life Course, Aging and Generation (NorLAG) study, concentrating on workers 40\u201361 years old, thinking about retirement (n = 2339). Results indicate that some leisure activities and interests are associated with preferences for early retirement, while other activities and interests are associated with preferences for later retirement. Different leisure activities and interests are related to men's and women's retirement preferences. Single women prefer to retire later than married women. Findings suggest that leisure activities and social interests have different relevance for men's and women's preferences for leaving the labor force. Women active in voluntary work prefer later retirement, while men engaged in fishing and hunting prefer early retirement.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":33610506,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2057880448","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.2190\/AG.75.3.c","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The pervasive computing paradigm sees almost every object in the everyday environment as a system able to communicate with users and other systems in their own languages. The interaction between users and systems is therefore typically multimodal. The main challenge of multimodal interaction, that is also the main topic of this paper, lies in developing a framework that is able to process information derived from whatever input modalities, giving these inputs an appropriate representation and integrating these individual representations into a joint semantic interpretation.

The novelty of the proposed model is the incorporation of natural gas richness (GPM) as an input parameter for calculating the water content of natural gas, in addition to temperature, pressure, and acid gas equivalent content. Experimental data from the literature is used in the ANN training and validation, with the help of the BigML machine learning platform to perform a multi-layer-feedforward neural network.

However, there are few systematic reviews with meta-analysis have been conducted to evaluate the strength of this association. Moreover, existing studies usually focused on unidirectional associations between cognitive function and oral health; no research has demonstrated this inter-relationship in a longitudinal study. This study aims to systematically assess the magnitude of the bidirectional association between oral health and cognitive decline for studies using longitudinal data.

Meta-analysis was performed for tooth loss and periodontitis disease. Random effects analysis showed, with statistically low heterogeneity, Risks of cognitive decline included suboptimal dentition (<20 teeth) (RR 1.44, 95% CI 1.03-3.65) and periodontitis diseases (RR 1.48, 95% CI 1.22-1.81). Cognitive decline was a risk factor for tooth loss (RR 1.54, 95% CI 1.23-9.69). The overall quality of evidence, however, was rated as very low.

+{"text":"Temporal action localization (TAL) is a prevailing task due to its great application potential. Existing works in this field mainly suffer from two weaknesses: (1) They often neglect the multi-label case and only focus on temporal modeling. (2) They ignore the semantic information in class labels and only use the visual information. To solve these problems, we propose a novel Co-Occurrence Relation Module (CORM) that explicitly models the co-occurrence relationship between actions. Besides the visual information, it further utilizes the semantic embeddings of class labels to model the co-occurrence relationship. The CORM works in a plug-and-play manner and can be easily incorporated with the existing sequence models. By considering both visual and semantic co-occurrence, our method achieves high multi-label relationship modeling capacity. Meanwhile, existing datasets in TAL always focus on low-semantic atomic actions. Thus we construct a challenging multi-label dataset UCF-Crime-TAL that focuses on high-semantic actions by annotating the UCF-Crime dataset at frame level and considering the semantic overlap of different events. Extensive experiments on two commonly used TAL datasets, \\textit{i.e.}, MultiTHUMOS and TSU, and our newly proposed UCF-Crime-TAL demenstrate the effectiveness of the proposed CORM, which achieves state-of-the-art performance on these datasets.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":257532725,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.48550\/arXiv.2303.08463","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":"2303.08463"},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The detailed knowledge of ground conditions ahead of the tunnel face is necessary for safe and economical tunnel construction. The Tunnel Electrical resistivity Prospecting System (TEPS) has been developed to accurately detect the geological, hydro-geological, and geotechnical conditions such as the location, the size, the state of anomalies, cavities, weak zones, improved zones, high permeability water or gas bearing zones, or faults\/fractures existing ahead of the tunnel face by measuring a series of electrical resistances and performing back analyses. The TEPS are composed of several electric sensors (electrodes), an in-situ resistance measurement system, an automated data acquisition system, inversion programs for back analyses, and closed form solutions for electric field analyses of jointed rock masses. Although the detectability of the TEPS is dependent upon the size and state of an irregular zone, its reliable penetration depth ranges in about 4~5 times of the tunnel size. It takes about 30 minutes to complete a test for one section of a tunnel. As practical applications, this paper presents several case studies for the ground condition estimation of collapsed tunnel zones using the TEPS. Overall, the ground conditions predicted by the TEPS are in accordance with the ground conditions measured during construction, verifying the TEPS. Introduction Rapid urbanization has increased the necessity of new spaces such as underground structures and long tunnels. For successful underground and long tunnel construction, it is very important to have a detailed understanding of the ground conditions at the design stage. As such, a site investigation such as boring and geophysical exploration surveys must be performed in order to ascertain the conditions of ground around the tunnel scheduled for construction. Nevertheless, there have been many reports of tunnel accidents that are caused by unexpected occurrence of anomalies, such as weak zones, fault zones, and cavities (CHO et al., 1999; KIM et al., 2000; HASEGAWA et al., 1993). So, technology that can be used to attain an accurate understanding of the ground conditions ahead of tunnel face and to predict even minute anomalies existing ahead of tunnel face is needed. Measurement of electrical resistivity, used to attain information on the ground conditions of a tunnel region, facilitates understanding of the electrical characteristics and configuration of media (BOYCE, 1968; CHOI et al., 2004). In practice, electrical resistivity based exploration techniques are widely used in a variety of fields, from predicting the particle size in a discrete medium at a small Berichte Geol.

The conventional nondestructive method of using apparent electrical resistivity at a large scale is suitable for understanding the general ground conditions, but is not suitable for close-range exploration within a range of 3 times the tunnel diameter ahead of tunnel face, where the stability of the tunnel is most significantly affected and most tunnel accidents occur. In this paper, a method to predict ground conditions in the area ahead of tunnel face using electrical resistivity (Tunnel Electrical resistivity Prospecting System: TEPS) is developed in order to improve the reliability and efficiency of site investigations under tunnel construction (Figure 1). Fig. 1: Tunnel Electrical resistivity Prospecting System (TEPS). TEPS A TEPS consists of the analytical equation, the rock mass classification system, the inverse program, the control system, and the measurement system (RYU, 2010). Analytical equations Analytical equations are obtained by the electric field analysis using Gauss' law and Laplace equation. Those consists of the electrical resistance equation (Rrm) at jointed rock mass, the electrical resistance equation (Rrm-sa) at jointed rock mass with a spherical anomaly, and the electrical resistance equation (Rrm-pa) at jointed rock mass with a platy anomaly, as follows: ( , , , , ) rm ir j R f d t a \u03c3 \u03c3 = (1) ( , , , , , , , , , , , ) rm sa rm sa sa sa sa s s r r sa sa R f x y z x y x y r K a \u03c3 \u03c3 \u2212 = (2) ( , , , , , , , , , , , , ) rm pa rm pa s s r r pa pa R f A B C D x y x y t K a \u03c3 \u03c3 \u2212 = (3) where \u03c3ir is the electrical conductivity of joints, \u03c3j is the electrical conductivity of intact rock, d is the thickness of intact rock, t is the thickness of joints, a is the radius of sensors, \u03c3rm is the electrical conductivity f surroundings possible to obtain from Equation (1), \u03c3sa is the electrical conductivity of a spherical anomaly, (xsa, ysa, zsa) is the locational coordinate of a spherical anomaly, (xs, ys) is locational coordinate of source sensor, (xr, yr) is locational coordinate of Berichte Geol.

Rock mass classification system In order to estimate the rock conditions by using electrical resistivity, the Q-system and RMR, used as the rock mass classification, were correlated with electrical resistivity (CHOI et al., 2006; RYU, 2010). The parameters of Q-system and RMR are correlated with the electrical resistivity by using the equation (1), and the specific relationship between rock mass classification and electrical resistivity could be obtained using the certain field information (Figure 2). Inverse programs The inverse programs of TEPS can predict the location, size, and characteristics of anomalies that exist ahead of tunnel face by using the developed analytical equation and electrical resistance values measured in the fields. The inverse procedures consist of the Monte Carlo method and the Genetic Algorithm method. Fig. 2: The relationship between rock mass classification and electrical resistivity. (a) Q-system and electrical resistivity. (b) RMR and electrical resistivity. Control system and measurement system The control system can control the measurement of electrical resistance values in the fields, and the measurement system is organized for measuring the electrical resistance values in the fields. The measurement system consists of a data acquisition (DAQ), a digital multimeter (DMM), a power supply, a switch controller, a terminal block, and sensors.

B.-A., 93, ISSN 1017\u20108880 \u2013 Applications in Engineering 182 0.5m, and electrical resistivity values are 0.2 times than one of surroundings) was predicted at the location near to the tunnel face (Figure 3a). This means that the larger region than the collapsed zone is put as the reinforcement region in order to prevent the adding collapse. Also, the strong zone (electrical resistivity values are relatively 3 times than one of surroundings) is predicted at 1m ~ 1.5m ahead of tunnel face and the left of tunnel face. The field mapping data in \u25cb\u25cb tunnel shows the accuracy of predicted results. \u25cb\u25cb national highway \u2013 zone 2 (\u25cb\u25cb tunnel) Field experiments were performed in order to distinguish the existence of anomaly ahead of tunnel face, predict the possibility of the adding collapse, and estimate the rock condition around the collapsing section, in regards to the collapse of tunnel face under tunnel construction. Prediction results are shown in Figure 3(b). Based on predicted results, the excavation work was performed after fixing the rock-bolt and the anchor at the bedrock for no more collapsing at ceiling part of tunnel. The adding collapse didn't happen. All things taken together, although the detectability of the TEPS is dependent upon the size and state of an irregular zone, its reliable penetration depth ranges in about 4~5 times of the tunnel size. It takes about 30 minutes to complete a test for one section of a tunnel. Fig. 3: Field test results. (a) \u25cb\u25cb western detour roads (\u25cb\u25cb tunnel). (b) \u25cb\u25cb national highway \u2013 zone 2 (\u25cb\u25cb tunnel). Conclusions A TEPS (Tunnel Electrical resistivity Prospecting System), which was developed as a tunnel-ahead prediction technology for preventing previously economic and social damage caused by the unexpected occurrence of anomalies under tunnel construction, consists of the analytical equation, the rock mass classification system, the inverse program, the control system, and the measurement system. Field tests were performed for field applications of the TEPS and field test results show the accuracy and reliability of TEPS.

+{"text":"Editor: Hemoperitoneum is an unusual complication in patients undergoing CAPD (1). In most cases it has a benign course. Two milliliters of blood can dye the peritoneal effluent an intense red. The most frequent cause is endometriosis. However, other gynecological, hematological, tumoral, and abdominal sources can cause hemoperitoneum. Polycystic kidney disease, peritonitis, pancreatitis, cholecystitis, and extracorporeal lithotripsy are other possibilities. Rarely, hemoperitoneum is associated with rupture of the spleen (2) or iliopsoas spontaneous hematoma (3). We present a case of hemoperitoneum consequent to retroperitoneal hematoma after manipulating a double-lumen femoral catheter for hemodialysis. This 44-year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus and end-stage renal disease has been on hemodialysis for the last three years. Because of thrombosis of every possible vascular access site, it was decided to change her to peritoneal dialysis. A left Swan neck Missouri peritoneal catheter was placed by surgical technique without complication. A peritoneal lavage at the seventh and fourteenth day was clear. The patient continued on hemodialysis through a doublelumen femoral catheter on the right side. We waited four weeks before standard CAPD was begun. Seventeen days after placement of the peritoneal catheter, during a hemodialysis session, her femoral catheter was changed through a guide wire because of poor flow. Suddenly, she developed severe pain in the right lumbar fossa, right hemiabdomen, and acute anemia and hypovolemic shock occurred. The femoral catheter was removed, and she received intravenous fluids and transfusion of six packed red blood cells, achieving hematologic and hemodynamic stabilization. No surgery was required. A computed tomography scan of the abdomen showed retroperitoneal hematoma involving the right anterior and posterior pararenal space and right iliopsoas muscle. Twenty-four hours later, nightly intermittent peritoneal dialysis was begun. The first peritoneal effluent was very bloody. After continuous peritoneal lavage with 1-L exchanges at room temperature over two hours, the dialysate became clear. One year later, the patient continues on continuous cycling peritoneal dialysis without any problems. To our knowledge, this cause of hemoperitoneum has not been reported before.

Our laboratory experiments with invasive cane toads ( Rhinella marina ) show that this back fi re effect can occur with pheromone-baited trapping. Eliminating most of the tadpoles from a tank accelerates metamorphosis of the survivors and increases the size (and thus quality) of those metamorphs. Thus, trapping is likely to reduce recruitment only if the program catches all, or almost all, of the tadpoles in a waterbody. In contrast, toad control using the suppression pheromone, either alone or alongside trapping, causes similar rates of mortality as via trapping alone, but the survivors exhibit smaller mass at metamorphosis and a longer, not shorter, larval period. Thus, the combination of pheromone-based suppression and trapping can reduce effective recruitment of cane toads more success-fully than can either method when used alone.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":213981484,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2992657729","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1002\/ecs2.2969","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdfdirect\/10.1002\/ecs2.2969","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"This paper presents a study on the relationships between personality type and student interest in sustainability within civil engineering. The personality types of undergraduate civil engineering students in a sophomore introduction to civil engineering course with sustainability-related topics were determined using the Myers Brigg Personality Type Indicator\u00ae. Sustainability related topics were presented in the course through traditional instructor-centered lectures. Personality type was then related to student-reported interest in civil engineering and sustainability, as well as student-reported importance of personal sustainability issues through surveys. Results correlate student interest ratings and importance ratings to personality type as well as gender. Results give preliminary insight into effective methods for attracting a more diverse population into civil engineering. Feeling (F) and perceiving (P) personality types \u2013 atypical in civil engineering \u2013 showed largest increases in interest in sustainability at the end of the introductory civil engineering course. Female, thinking (T) personality type civil engineering students also showed an increase in civil engineering at the end of the introductory civil engineering course. Therefore sustainability may be a viable means for attracting atypical engineering personality types and females into civil engineering. Introduction Sustainability has been identified as a critical component in engineering education by the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET), and the National Academy of Engineering (NAE). 1-3 Additionally, many Universities have incorporated sustainability concepts into civil engineering programs such as Carnegie Mellon University, Syracuse University, and Arizona State University, which have successfully implemented courses in sustainability in Civil Engineering freshman and sophomore courses. 4-8 Sustainability in lower level civil engineering courses is often introduced at a conceptual level in the broad sense of environmental, economic, and social implications of engineered structures and materials as contrasted to the technical, physics-based course topics usually present in upper-level engineering courses. There is an established knowledge base linking personality type with learning preferences in engineering curricula. 9-15 In this vein, personality assessment can be a useful tool for improving the effectiveness of teaching technical engineering courses. As the topic of sustainability, particularly in its abstract introduction in lower level courses, may be fundamentally different from traditional technical engineering courses founded on scientific theory, it is useful to study the relationships between personality type and sustainability in engineering education. Myers Briggs Personality Type Indicator and Type Theory A variety of personality assessment tools are available and easily accessible, one of the most well-known being the Myers Brigg Personality Type Indicator\u00ae (MBTI). The MBTI identifies 16 different personality types founded on preferences in four major categories based on Jung's Theory of Psychological Types. MBTI results indicate whether a person tends to be extroverted (E) or introverted (I), sensing (S) or intuitive (N), thinking (T) or feeling (F), and judging (J) or perceiving (P). Extroverted types focus energy on the outer world while introverted types focus P ge 26411.2 energy on the inner world. Sensing types process information through actual facts and details that they encounter through their senses while intuitive types think more in abstract theory, general impressions, and intuition. Thinking types make decisions based on logical, impersonal facts while feeling types are subjective and value-based. Finally, judging types prefer orderly, structured, task-oriented lives while perceiving types prefer flexibility and openness. Extensive research performed in the 1980s by the ASEE-MBTI Engineering Consortium of eight universities showed engineering students favor thinking and judging personality types and are more often introverted; there was little difference between sensing and intuitive types. 9 Additional research also supports these findings. 10-15 Course and Survey Description This paper presents a study on the relationships between personality type and student-reported interest in civil engineering and sustainability within civil engineering. The paper also discusses personality type correlation with personal sustainability issues. The experimental group included sophomore civil engineering students in an introductory civil engineering course which includes sustainability related topics at Manhattan College during the fall semester of 2014. The course focused on traditional civil engineering topics and construction methods as well as sustainable buildings and construction. Students describe sustainable building rating systems, utilize traditional techniques for surveying, apply principles of passive design, explain and formulate preliminary designs of alternate energy systems, and describe behavior and construction methods of building materials. The course is taught in a traditional, instructor-led lecture format. Three sections of the course taught by two different faculty members were included in the study. 59 students were enrolled in the course, but useable survey data was only received by 38 students \u2013 some students did not properly identify a personality type and\/or did not complete the interest and importance questions. Students were asked to complete the personality indicator online outside of class time and then report the results on an in-class survey. Due to circumstances beyond the authors' control at the time, some students were unable or chose not to complete the online personality assessment and thus their interest rating and importance ratings could not be correlated to personality type. During future surveys and assessment, the students will complete the personality assessment in class along with the interest and importance surveys so that more complete data can be gathered. The personality types of the undergraduate civil engineering students were determined using self-reported responses to the MBTI. Students then completed surveys which requested student personality type, student interest in sustainability, student interest in civil engineering, and importance of personal sustainability issues both before and after the course. Interest in sustainability and civil engineering was reported as: no interest, little interest, neither interest nor disinterest, considerable interest, or passion for sustainability\/civil engineering. Personal sustainability related topics are shown in the survey excerpt in Table 1 and relate to decisions students may make on a daily basis which pertain to sustainability. Survey Results Survey results were formulated to consider an Interest Rating Score and an Importance Rating Score on a scale of 0 through 4. The Interest Rating score was calculated for level of interest in both civil engineering and sustainability before and after the course as an average score where P ge 26411.3 responses were quantified as follows: passion for civil engineering\/sustainability= 4 points; considerable interest in civil engineering\/sustainability = 3 points; neither interest nor disinterest civil engineering\/sustainability = 2 points; little interest civil engineering\/sustainability = 1 point; and no interest civil engineering\/sustainability = 0 points. Importance Rating score was calculated for the questions about degree of importance of several personal sustainability issues as quantified in the question statement (very important = 4 points; important = 3 points; neutral = 2 points; unimportant = 1 point; not important at all = 0 points).

Eaton and Kortum (2002) proposed a two-step method to estimate this parameter, where exporter fixed effects are regressed on proxies for technology and wages. Within the same Ricardian model of trade, the trade share provides an alternative source of identication for the elasticity of trade. Following Santos Silva and Tenreyro (2006) both trade share and EK models are estimated using OLS and Poisson PML to test for the presence of heteroskedasticity-type-of-bias. The evidence from both specifications suggests that the bias in the OLS estimates significantly impacts the magnitude of trade cost elasticity.

This paper provides an example of one such assessment by analyzing the task within the TREC 2002 question answering track. The analysis demonstrates that comparative results from the new task are stable, and empirically estimates the size of the difference required between scores to confidently conclude that two runs are different.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":1486932,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2157251260","ACL":"N03-1034","DOI":"10.3115\/1073445.1073479","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"http:\/\/dl.acm.org\/ft_gateway.cfm?id=1073479&type=pdf","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Efficient operation results from a proper control strategy. In the operation and performance of a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC), the hydrogen gas flow rate is one of the most essential control parameter in addition to operating pressure, water management, temperature and humidity. This is because of the high cost and amount of energy are required to produce the purity hydrogen gas. In this paper, a Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) feedback control system is used to control the hydrogen flow rate. A strategy is adapted to balance the hydrogen use based on the loading requirements, especially during startups and sudden power demands. This system is implemented using National Instrument (NI) devices powered by the LabVIEW program. This is due to its simplicity and customization flexibility for measuring, processing and recording data. Designed structure allows the real-time implementation of a robust control law that is able to address the related nonlinearities and uncertainties without incurring a heavy computational load for the controller algorithm. While it facilitating a fast sampling rate according to the needs of the power system. Test results from the controller show that the new fuel control system provides good performance by reducing the amount of wasted hydrogen gas compared with that of the previous open loop system by 30 % to over 80 % saved by the varied load. This improvement is beneficial for any PEMFC that experiences fluctuating power demand, especially for vehicle applications.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":59404518,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2565262608","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.17576\/MJAS-2016-2004-26","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Peptide neurotoxins are known to block nAChRs by binding to their target subunits, however, a better understanding of receptor subunit composition is needed for effective design of insecticides.

+{"text":"INTRODUCTION: \nNeonatal mortality accounts for two-thirds of the infant mortality rate in India and other developing countries. It is estimated that over 1 million newborn infants die during the first four weeks of life. \nThe current neonatal mortality rate in India is 39 per 1000 live births.1 Asphyxia was the single most important cause of still-births, accounting for 45.1% of all intrauterine deaths and the primary cause for neonatal mortality, accounting for 28.8% of all the deaths.2 Morbidity associated with perinatal asphyxia includes cerebral palsy, learning disabilities, visual and hearing impairments, behavioural abnormalities and residual motor or cognitive disabilities. These have a considerable effect on the surviving babies, their families and on society. \nThe etiology of perinatal Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE) includes those conditions that can affect the cerebral blood flow in the fetus and newborn compromising the supply of oxygen to the brain. They may develop antepartum (20%), intrapartum (30%), intrapartum and antepartum (35%) or postpartum (10%). HIE that develops in the setting of perinatal asphyxia is part of a multiorgan system disease. \nAfter an asphyxial event, there may be an opportunity to intervene to minimize brain damage. The first phase of brain damage, early cell death, results from the primary exhaustion of cellular energy stores. \nEarly cell death can occur within minutes. Damage to the brain is limited at this stage by immediate resuscitation to restore oxygen supply and blood circulation. A secondary phase of neuronal injury occurs some times after the initial insult. There are several mechanisms involved in this process. \nTreatment during the post resuscitation phase aim to block these processes thereby limiting secondary cell damage and minimizing the extent of potential brain damage. \nNeuroprotection was achieved in animal models of brain ischemia by reduction in brain temperature by 2\u00b0C to 5\u00b0C.6-11 Randomized control trials done in the developed countries using expensive equipment was shown to reduce mortality and morbidity among newborn survivors of perinatal asphyxia.12-17 The present trial was conducted to evaluate whether whole-body cooling could be achieved in a lowresource setting using simple available cooling materials. \nAIM AND OBJECTIVES: \nAim and objectives: \nTo study the feasibility of whole body cooling for newborn infants with perinatal asphyxia in a low resource setting. \nPrimary objective: \nAchievement of target temperature within 1 hour of initiation of treatment and within 6 hours of birth and maintaining the target temperature for 72 hours. \nSecondary objectives: \nMonitoring adverse events and possible complications that could occur secondary to whole body cooling. \n1. Cardiac arrhythmia, \n2. Persistent hypoxemia, \n3. Hypotension despite full inotropic support, \n4. Skin changes, \n5. Thrombocytopenia, \n6. Life threatening coagulopathy, \n7. Arterial thrombosis, \n8. Hepatic and renal failure, \n9. Electrolyte disturbances, \n10. Death. \nMETHODOLOGY: \nBabies who were recruited into the trial included inborn (born at the Christian Medical College and Hospital) and outborn (born in a place other than the Christian Medical College and Hospital) admitted into the neonatal unit of the hospital. \nInclusion and exclusion criteria for Inborn babies. \nInclusion criteria: \n1.

+{"text":"Background Viruses from 2 influenza B lineages co-circulate, leading to suboptimal protection with trivalent influenza vaccines (TIV). Quadrivalent influenza vaccines (QIV) containing both lineages offer broader protection. Methods We compared inactivated seasonal QIV versus TIV (15 and 7.5 \u03bcg hemagglutinin [HA] for each influenza strain, respectively) in a phase II randomized (1 : 1), observer-blind trial in US children 6\u201335 months of age (identifier NCT01974895). The primary objective was to evaluate immune responses induced by QIV for the 4 vaccine strains 28 days after completion of vaccination. A secondary objective was to demonstrate superiority of QIV versus TIV for the B\/Victoria strain contained in QIV but not TIV. Immunogenicity was evaluated in the per-protocol cohort (N = 280), and safety was evaluated in the intent-to-treat cohort (N = 314). Results Seroconversion rates (SCRs) for QIV were 80.4% (95% confidence interval [CI], 73.0%\u201386.6%), 72.0% (95% CI, 63.9%\u201379.2%), 86.0% (95% CI, 79.2%\u201391.2%), and 66.4% (95% CI, 58.1%\u201374.1%) for A\/H1N1, A\/H3N2, B\/Yamagata, and B\/Victoria, respectively. Quadrivalent influenza vaccines demonstrated immunogenic superiority over TIV for B\/Victoria with a geometric mean titer ratio of 4.73 (95% CI, 3.73%\u20135.99%) and SCR difference of 54.02% (95% CI, 43.88%\u201362.87%). Safety was similar between the vaccine groups despite the QIV's higher antigen content. No serious adverse events were reported related to vaccination. Conclusions Quadrivalent influenza vaccine (15 \u00b5g HA\/strain) was immunogenic with an acceptable safety profile. The next phase of its development in children 6\u201335 months of age is a phase III trial in countries where it is not yet licensed. In countries where it is already licensed, a switch from TIV to QIV would provide broader protection in this vulnerable group.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":23099686,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2290048361","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1093\/jpids\/piv041","PubMedCentral":"5407130","ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYNCND","url":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jpids\/article-pdf\/5\/2\/170\/7954851\/piv041.pdf","status":"HYBRID"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"ging is associated with a series of inexorable physiologic changes in men such as decline in libido, decreased potency, osteopenia, decreased muscle mass and strength, decreased food intake, and cognitive function. Many of these changes are similar to those seen with male hypogonadism. Recently it has become established that testosterone levels decline from the age of 30 years and this rate of decline parallels the rate of decline of the physiologic changes associated with aging (see below). This has led to the speculation that a lack of testosterone is responsible for some of these changes and that testosterone replacement therapy may retard or reverse some of these age-related \"degenerations\". The concept that a decline in testosterone with aging is associated with a variety of physiologic age-related changes, similar to the role of estrogen deficiency in women, has been referred to by a variety of names, including male menopause, the climacteric, the viropause, the andropause, or most recently, ADAM. This article reviews the changes in androgen levels that occur with aging and the evidence that some of these changes may play a role in the physiology of the aging process.

+{"text":"Abstract Various aspects of metabolism and physiology were investigated during the ontogeny of yellowtail kingfish ( Seriola lalandi ), a fish of growing aquaculture importance in both New Zealand and other countries. Incubation experiments between 18-24\u00b0C showed that developing eggs and larvae were heavily influenced by temperature. It appeared that at warmer temperatures larvae hatched smaller but grew on the yolk sac, whereas at cooler temperatures larvae grew inside the chorion. Oxygen consumption data supported this, with a negative correlation found between total embryonic oxygen consumption and temperature. A mechanism was proposed to explain the differential effect of temperature on ontogeny and growth. Like other marine fish with pelagic eggs, yellowtail kingfish were found to be heavily reliant on free amino acids as a source of energy. At 23\u00b0C the pattern of substrate utilisation in eggs was considerably different from that at 17-21\u00b0C, indicating that 23\u00b0C exceeded the tolerance for normal development. Inter-individual aggression by large individuals was associated with the development of size heterogeneity in juveniles. Although this aggression also affected the survival of smaller juveniles, it was not the primary agent of much of the mortality that occurs during this phase, as many of these individuals were on a degenerate developmental trajectory. Yellowtail kingfish fingerlings used for ongrowing were robust to the stressors imposed by live transport. The ontogenetic development of metabolic rate from 0.6 mg-2.2 kg did not follow the same scaling exponent as that observed for mammalian models of allometry, and has implications for interspecific studies of mass-dependent metabolism. ii","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":83450645,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"820356891","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

After proposing to address both the histories and significance of these 'new geographies of collaboration' and hinting at projects in Syria, Ethiopia, and Algeria that fall outside this volume, Stanek limits his case studies to four main sites and periods: Ghana during 1957\u201366, Lagos during 1966\u201379, Baghdad during 1958\u201390, and Abu Dhabi and Kuwait City during 1979\u201390. These are places where some major projects designed for the new regimes were built, including international trade fair infrastructures, the complex built in Lagos to host the Second World Black and African Festival of Arts and Culture (Festac '77), and government buildings for Abu Dhabi. In parallel, socialist consultants also contributed to several master plans or 'type designs' (215\u201322) of standardized building layouts or components. These commissions led to incremental growth in the exchange of expertise as socialist architects worked abroad, sometimes with African assistants, and occasionally beneath Middle Eastern experts. Sometimes, however, they suffered problems of coordination, unsustainable costs, and, in some later cases, outdated design approaches. The projects Stanek describes were often produced through collective ventures, including state-funded design institutes. This approach to procurement contrasted with the colonial practices of foreign architecture where research stations would offer expertise to professional offices and construction firms, a likely more flexible way of distributing knowledge, but a less efficient route to scaling up construction. While there are some extraordinary narratives of grand projects carried out by Comecon experts, the stories of those overseas experts who became more embedded in local societies by joining local institutions make for some of the most revealing content.

+{"text":"In this issue of Cancer, Jagai and colleagues from the US Environmental Protection Agency describe the application of a novel Environmental Quality Index, which measures cumulative exposures across multiple environmental domains (including air, water, and land quality; sociodemographic composition; and built environment) and their associations with cancer incidence. At the county level, the authors found that overall, lower environmental quality was associated with higher all-site cancer incidence, with an incidence rate differential of 32.60 per 100,000 (95% confidence interval, 16.2848.91) for males and 30.34 (95% confidence interval, 20.47-40.21) for females, comparing the worst to the best environmental quality quintiles. This translates to more than 30 cases of cancer per 100,000 persons per year that could be avoided if environmental quality were improved from the worst to the best quintile; because these are ecological associations, however, they do not consider the effect of confounders, effect modifiers, or other factors such as competing causes of death. These associations were most pronounced in more urbanized counties, and for the air, sociodemographic, and built environment domains. The authors also specifically examined four cancer sites, and found independent, positive (i.e., higher cancer incidence in counties with poorer environmental quality) associations with air, built, and sociodemographic environmental quality for prostate and breast cancers, and air quality for lung cancer. The picture with colorectal cancer appeared to depend on urban\/rural status, where negative associations were seen with air, water, built, and sociodemographic environmental quality in less urban counties, but positive associations with sociodemographic environmental quality were evident in metropolitan urban counties. National declines in cancer incidence and mortality over the past 20 years are well documented, signaling progress in cancer prevention and treatments. However, this progress is not seen across all segments of the population, with stark and persistent disparities in cancer incidence and mortality by race\/ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and other social determinants of health (social and physical environmental factors that promote health). An aspect of social determinants of health that has gained increasing recognition is place or geography, with Healthy People 2020 highlighting \"the importance of addressing the social determinants of health by including 'Create social and physical environments that promote good health for all' as one of the four overarching goals for the decade.\" The relevance of the social and physical environment is evidenced by data showing that cancer health disparities exist geographically. Mokdad et al showed recently that, although overall cancer mortality rates have declined over the past 35 years, this decline was not seen across all counties in the United States, because some counties\u2014particularly those clustered in the Southeast and Appalachian regions\u2014experienced increasing and high rates of cancer mortality. In an accompanying editorial, Wheeler and Basch highlight the value of local area surveillance data and the application of geospatial approaches to identify hotspots for targeted cancer control activities. Geographical variations in cancer incidence and mortality patterns can be due to factors such as communitylevel deprivation and pollution in air, water, and land, as well as poor built environment and limited geographical access to medical care. The study by Jagai et al represents a logical next step in attributing the geographical disparities reported by Mokdad et al to select environmental domains and should serve as a valuable resource for researchers to focus on better understanding the identified associations, as well as for policy makers to target specific regions and environmental factors within those regions to reduce the burden of cancer in the United States. There is tension within the geospatial environmental sciences literature about whether to focus on individual exposures or cumulative exposures. On the one hand, for diseases like cancer, specific exposures such as certain air pollutants or particular socioeconomic factors may be more relevant, and identifying the specific exposure allows for targeted","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":34668713,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2613097175","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1002\/cncr.30711","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdfdirect\/10.1002\/cncr.30711","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The South African state, however, despite its theoretical commitment to gender equality, has failed substantially to engage with the issue of childcare and women's citizenship. This is problematic because in failing to envisage a role for itself in supporting women with their responsibility for childcare, the state has not only neglected its Constitutional commitments to gender equality, but it has also failed to realise the benefits that could potentially accrue to children if women's access to economic citizenship is not hampered by childcare.

+{"text":"Significance The meninges protect the central nervous system but also host lymphocytes in neuroinflammation. In human multiple sclerosis, preferentially B cells accumulate in the meninges. By generating a compartment-specific transcriptional map of meningeal versus parenchymal leukocytes in experimental neuroinflammation, we found a follicular phenotype of meningeal B cells and a corresponding follicular helper-like phenotype in meningeal Th17 cells. The meninges thus instructed a site-specific local phenotype to proinflammatory autoreactive T cells. We identified the transcription factor Bcl6 in Th17 cells to promote interactions with meningeal B cells, isotype-switching, and B cell-supporting chemokines. This may describe a mechanism controlling meningeal autoimmunity and helps understanding how the meninges, as a recently recognized immunologically active site, contribute to autoimmune tissue damage in multiple sclerosis. Ectopic lymphoid tissue containing B cells forms in the meninges at late stages of human multiple sclerosis (MS) and when neuroinflammation is induced by interleukin (IL)-17 producing T helper (Th17) cells in rodents. B cell differentiation and the subsequent release of class-switched immunoglobulins have been speculated to occur in the meninges, but the exact cellular composition and underlying mechanisms of meningeal-dominated inflammation remain unknown. Here, we performed in-depth characterization of meningeal versus parenchymal Th17-induced rodent neuroinflammation. The most pronounced cellular and transcriptional differences between these compartments was the localization of B cells exhibiting a follicular phenotype exclusively to the meninges. Correspondingly, meningeal but not parenchymal Th17 cells acquired a B cell\u2013supporting phenotype and resided in close contact with B cells. This preferential B cell tropism for the meninges and the formation of meningeal ectopic lymphoid tissue was partially dependent on the expression of the transcription factor Bcl6 in Th17 cells that is required in other T cell lineages to induce isotype class switching in B cells. A function of Bcl6 in Th17 cells was only detected in vivo and was reflected by the induction of B cell\u2013supporting cytokines, the appearance of follicular B cells in the meninges, and of immunoglobulin class switching in the cerebrospinal fluid. We thus identify the induction of a B cell\u2013supporting meningeal microenvironment by Bcl6 in Th17 cells as a mechanism controlling compartment specificity in neuroinflammation.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":237410462,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1073\/pnas.2023174118","PubMedCentral":"8433502","ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYNCND","url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1073\/pnas.2023174118","status":"HYBRID"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

So, understanding molecular mechanisms including interacting genes and their action is a prerequisite to the therapeutic approach against these issues. The aim of present bioinformatic study is the detection of molecular network concerning therapeutic potential of melatonin in gametogenesis. It includes target genes identification, gene ontology, KEGG pathway enrichment, network analysis, prediction of signaling pathways and molecular docking.

+{"text":"The recent development of infrared-visible sum frequency generation (SFG), a surface-specific vibrational spectroscopy, has helped bridge the pressure gap between studies of heterogeneous catalysis under high vacuum and atmospheric pressure. This is achieved by in situ monitoring of surface species at high pressure via their SFG vibrational spectra and correlating the results with the simultaneously measured reaction rate using gas chromatography. Examples of systems studied include olefin hydrogenation and carbon monoxide oxidation over the (111)crystalline face of platinum. In these examples, the studies succeed in revealing the molecular details of the surface reactions. Identification of key intermediates and their concentrations has made it possible for the first time to calculate turn over rates per active surface species rather than just per exposed surface metal atom. In all cases, the key intermediate of the reaction is not detectable on the surface in UHV under similar temperatures.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":92188477,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"118018535","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Modern 4-wave mixing spectroscopies are expensive to obtain experimentally and computationally. In certain cases, the unfavorable scaling of quantum dynamics problems can be improved using a generalized quantum master equation (GQME) approach. However, the inclusion of multiple (light-matter) interactions complicates the equation of motion and leads to seemingly unavoidable cubic scaling in time. In this paper, we present a formulation that greatly simplifies and reduces the computational cost of previous work that extended the GQME framework to treat arbitrary numbers of quantum measurements. Specifically, we remove the time derivatives of quantum correlation functions from the modified Mori-Nakajima-Zwanzig framework by switching to a discrete-convolution implementation inspired by the transfer-tensor approach. We then demonstrate the method's capabilities by simulating 2D electronic spectra for the excitation-energy-transfer dimer model. In our method, the resolution of the data can be arbitrarily coarsened, especially along the $t_2$ axis, which mirrors how the data are obtained experimentally. Even in a modest case, this demands $\\mathcal{O}(10^3)$ fewer data points. We are further able to decompose the spectra into 1-, 2-, and 3-time correlations, showing how and when the system enters a Markovian regime where further measurements are unnecessary to predict future spectra and the scaling becomes quadratic. This offers the ability to generate long-time spectra using only short-time data, enabling access to timescales previously beyond the reach of standard methodologies.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":264812942,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":"2310.20022"},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The need for good public transit is generally accepted in most urban communities, this service being justified either as an alternative to other, more costly, transportation investment or as a contribution to the basic mobility needs of a large segment of the urban population. This public acceptance is reflected in the willingness of municipal and provincial governments in Canada to provide financial support for the operating and capital needs of urban public transit systems. Unfortunately, this public financial support has been provided at a time when inflation has been at a fairly high level, with the result that much of the money that was originally intended as an aid to service improvement has been absorbed by the existing transit services in their day-to-day operations. Analysis of these past trends, together with their associated socio-economic changes, suggests that in the future, an increasing proportion of government resources will have to be channelled into public transit simply to preserve the status quo. The case made by this type of argument is compelling and cannot be ignored. This simple extrapolation of past trends, however, ignores the potential impact of possible productivity improvements in the public transit industry. The control of the rate of increase of transit subsidies in the future, it is argued, is most likely to be made by the greater use of reserved rights-of-way, express services, sub-division planning controls and fare by distance systems rather than by new vehicle technology.

Though simple and applicable, AFOSM Method has shortcomings when distribution forms of random variable are concerned. In some cases, the distribution types of variables can be worked out through statistics analysis. Thus it is necessary to adopt appropriate methods to work out possible impacts of variable distribution. Stochastic BEM, based on Monte-Carlo numerical simulation, is capable to simulate such impacts effectively as a method of statistical approximation. But the coefficient matrix is asymmetric full-matrix in the solution of BEM matrix equation, the computational complexity increase by N3 with the increase of boundary node number. On solving the complex large-scale three dimensions structure problem, the large computational scale has been a barrier in the application of boundary element method, especially for the Stochastic BEM computation.

+{"text":"It is believed that chipless tags, often printable, will play a fundamental role for radio frequency identification technology to replace the currently widely used barcode technology. An application scenario of chipless tags that raises concerns is that the object attached with a chipless tag can be bent and even folded or crumbled. In this case, it is very difficult to identify the tag identity (ID) since some peaks or notches, which reflect the information encoded in the tag ID, in the radar cross section of the tag may disappear. In this paper, we propose to insert some error-correcting bits to the code of tag ID to improve the reliability of identifying chipless tag IDs. An error-detection channel model for dealing with this problem is developed. It is found that the channel model is asymmetric. Several error-correcting codes, namely Golay, BCH, and majority-rule-based multiple interrogations, are proposed to apply to the chipless tag encoding\/decoding problem. Some performance indices of these codes, namely successful reading rate and expected successful interrogation times, are analyzed. The asymmetric property of the channel model entails the performance analysis to be conducted in a different way from the literature. Numerical and simulation results are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed methods.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":59524891,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2897488083","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/JRFID.2018.2877054","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Chapbook is here defined as a publication using a single sheet of paper, printed on both sides, and folded into octavo size or smaller. The discussion focuses on production in Edinburgh which at this time was the centre of the Scottish book trade. While very few works were produced in these small formats in the city before the last quarter of the seventeenth century, the three generations thereafter witnessed their emergence as an important part of the market. This chapbook literature included 'penny godlies' and 'story books', poems and songs, which had long been staples of the London trade. Indeed, much output north of the border comprised titles pirated from the south.

+{"text":"Discovering ways to increase access to and delivery of interventions is a major challenge. Typically research is divorced from implementation, which has led to a growing literature about how to get research into practice. However, operational research is best prioritized, designed, implemented and replicated from within national programmes. \n \nThe current model for most international health service research is based on the assumption that the research community \"discovers\" solutions and then tries to market them to busy decision-makers and practitioners. The problem of failing to get research into policy and practice is well known. Much debate focuses on the effectiveness of different approaches to dissemination and behaviour change.1\u20134 This is a significant issue when trying to influence individual practitioners. Another focus is on developing the capacity of research institutions in developing countries, with the expectation that this will increase the relevance and local ownership of results.5 We argue that these two approaches are necessary but not sufficient. The aim should not be to perfect techniques of feeding results to decision-makers, but to start from the perspective of the decision-makers even before devising the questions. This means \"getting practice into research\". \n \nThis approach is not appropriate for research into new and untried treatments where efficacy has not been established, but should become the norm for operational research, by which we understand research into how an intervention is implemented. It is an approach that is gaining ground in the developed north, but which has even greater application in resource-constrained settings. Here, based on our experience in China, Pakistan and elsewhere, are some key considerations: \n \nOperational research should be embedded in local programmes. Operational research should emerge out of an ongoing partnership with a national programme. This includes the process of prioritizing, developing, conducting and disseminating research, and is part of national expansion of services. \n \nOperational research should focus on local opportunities for going to scale. The first stage is to explore the options that are under consideration for implementation and then design research to inform the choice of how that implementation should best be carried out. For maximum effect, it is often useful to focus attention on situations where there are resources available from international or national agencies, but where some technical or organizational block has prevented them from being used effectively. \n \nThe research questions may be based on an understanding of the barriers to large-scale access.6 Then trials and social and economic studies can be embedded within programme sites, and provide knowledge on how to overcome these barriers and deliver effective interventions, as in Pakistan.7\u20139 Because these operational issues are commonly relevant to other high-burden countries, the publication of the results should have international as well as national influence. \n \nInterventions to be evaluated should be realistic, given the resource constraints in that setting. Trial designs will vary according to the circumstances, but the key point is that the intervention is not implemented according to some kind of international ideal, relying on additional resources, but is integrated into existing health systems and is carried out using the resources which will be available for eventual scale-up. Unless the resource expectations are realistic, there will be no follow-up to research. \n \nThe national programme should implement the intervention, while researchers facilitate. \n \nResearchers can act as a catalyst for action, and participate within national programme working groups to design the intervention and draft the guidelines and materials required for implementation. They can conduct the research together with the national programme and advise on the national scale-up. The main point is that the national programme implements both the existing service and the intervention being tested (as they will replicate nationally if it is found effective). Researchers can carry out any data-gathering that is over and above the routine (e.g. structured interviews or collection of cost data). \n \nResearch and programme development should be linked. The development components should run alongside the research, with technical assistance being provided on programme frameworks and operational plans. The intervention research guidelines and training materials should also be adapted and used for successful expansion of whichever modality is supported by the operational research results. \n \nBy focusing on specific obstacles, embedded research improves resource use and hence resource availability. Done well, operations research not only helps make effective use of existing internal and external resources, but also assists programme managers to mobilize further support once successful implementation has been demonstrated. \n \nSupporting programmes to conduct research is the best way to build capacity. \nThe embedded research approach should also build local research capacity. A track record of successful country research helps local research teams to bid for further funding. Health programme managers in developing countries are increasingly recognizing the value of research and are setting up their own research teams. \u25a0","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":42715127,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2290107681","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.2471\/BLT.07.042531","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Emotional learning is a very important learning mechanism for the human body, and it is also an important part of artificial intelligence. This article proposes a bionic circuit, which simulates the dual loop of emotional learning in the human brain. The circuit uses the characteristics of the memristor to simulate the fast loop that quickly generates initial emotions to predict danger and the detour loop which generates a more refined emotion by further processing of the input information. The circuit includes: 1) thalamus module; 2) sensory cortex module; and 3) amygdala module. The first module sends the strongest input stimulus directly to the amygdala module for rapid processing. The second module processes the input stimuli and sends them to the amygdala module for emotion generation and judgment. The third module is responsible for generating output signals representing the corresponding emotions. The simulation results in PSPICE show that the output signal generated by the circuit can represent the characteristics of the dual loop of emotional learning, and more realistically simulate the biological process. By configuring the parameters, this circuit can be more flexibly applied to the radiation intensity early warning system to protect the safety of humans when working in a radiation environment.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":251746682,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/TCDS.2022.3200470","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Hemostasis, as a normal physiologic process, is best described as keeping the blood in the proper compartment, the blood vessels. It is a complex process with three major components: platelet function, vascular smooth muscle function, and coagulation processes of plasma. These hemostatic components are in a delicate balance with both activators and inhibitors playing a role (Fig. 1). Ordinarily, any one of the three components can be depressed or deactivated with some degree of hemostasis remaining [112]. When platelet function is depressed, as in thrombocytopenia, or in a qualitative disturbance such as in storage pool deficiency, there may occur a bleeding tendency, but vascular smooth muscle contraction alone, together with blood clotting can bring about hemostsis. Loss of blood must be halted long enough for coagulation and fibrin formation to take place. This can be effected by an increase in tissue pressure in the form of a hematoma. When vascular smooth muscle function is inhibited, usually by drugs, spontaneous bleeding ordinarily is not a problem; however, prolonged bleeding will occur at sites of injury. Without smooth muscle contraction, formation of a primary platelet plug takes more time to reach a critical closure point. However, once stoppage of flow occurs, fibrin formation by blood enzymatic procoagulant processes secure the plug. When there is a depression or depletion of the blood clotting processes, only intermittent hemostasis can take place. Vascular smooth muscle contraction as well as the primary platelet plug formation occurs at sites of injury; however, thrombin activity is necessary for the secondary or more stable plug to form. Delayed or absent procoagulant activity allows the reversible unstable primary platelet plug to break loose with resumption of bleeding until another platelet plug can form. Whenever two or more of the three basic sets of hemostatic mechanisms are depressed, continuous bleeding will occur until tissue pressure in the hematoma equals intravascular pressure. Caution should, therefore, be exercised when considering use of a platelet inhibiting drug concurrently with anticoagulation, or whenever coagulation mechanisms have been depressed. The purpose of this contribution is to focus on platelet function. Obviously, platelet function cannot be divorced totally from plasma coagulation mechanisms or vascular wall function, so we encourage our readers to review those mechanisms. Platelets not only function in normal hemostatic mechanisms but are also involved in pathologic processes such as thrombosis and embolism. They are involved in inflammatory responses likely through activation of chemotactic","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":38378938,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1055\/s-0028-1087130","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

While important progress was made by introducing this paradigm to deep neural networks, incremental learning remains a very challenging problem. This is particularly the case when no memory of past data is allowed, in which case catastrophic forgetting has a stronger effect. We tackle classincremental learning without memory by adapting prediction bias correction, a method which makes predictions of past and new classes more comparable. It was proposed when a memory is allowed and cannot be directly used without memory, since samples of past classes are required. We introduce a two-step learning process which allows the transfer of bias correction parameters between reference and target datasets. Bias correction parameters are first optimized offline on reference datasets with access to an associated validation memory. The obtained correction parameters are then transferred to target datasets, for which no memory is available. The second contribution is to introduce a finer modeling of bias correction by learning its parameters per incremental state instead of the usual past vs. new class modeling. Our proposed dataset knowledge transfer scheme is applicable to any incremental method operating without memory. We test its effectiveness by applying it to four existing methods. Evaluation with four target datasets and different configurations shows consistent improvement, with practically no computational and memory overhead.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":263696841,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Most of the testing is being conducted overseas and showing excellent results, which could potentially interest the United States beverage packaging market. Not only is the look of the bottle important, but so is its environmental impact. Recyclability of the aluminum bottle is another key reason why companies are making the switch. With a growing environmental concern, many major beverage companies are increasing the number of products packaged in the aluminum bottle throughout the United States. Introduction The aluminum bottle has many benefits, cost-wise and environmentally, and is considered the future of packaging for the United States beverage industry. There are four main points that demonstrate this claim. First, a new aluminum bottle design will most likely appeal to customers and increase sales. Second, the technology used to produce the aluminum bottle has proven strong. Third, aluminum is highly recyclable, which has enticed many companies to use this material. The fourth and final point discussed is the challenges companies could potentially face in the future. All of these claims will be discussed, but first, a brief description of aluminum's history will be viewed. History The material, aluminum, has been used in beverage packaging since its introduction to society in 1957. Throughout the aluminum can's 40+ year existence, there have been a few modifications made. Only slight changes have been made to the features and overall shape. Aluminum was mainly used to produce cans in the beverage industry until 1998, when Sapporo Breweries\u00ae, located in Tokyo, utilized the first aluminum bottle to the beverage world created by Daiwa Can Company (Reynolds, 2000). Sapporo created an aluminum bottle that had the ability to use many different types of caps, such as crown or lug closure. The product was first introduced in Japan, where a popular demand for aluminum bottles occurred. Today, the aluminum bottle is slowly starting to appear on store shelves across the United States. Although the companies manufacturing the aluminum bottle are using the package for a variety of reasons, many are seeing extremely favorable sales results. Aluminum Bottle Increases Profit A common goal that all companies share is finding strategies of increasing profit. The new shape of the aluminum bottle is producing such results. Companies currently using this strategy are seeing increases in sales after introducing the aluminum bottle or changing their current package to aluminum. This helps to show that the consumer is willing to pay extra, which will help cover the cost associated with production. The new aluminum bottle will help increase brand identity with company product lines, which discusses the first claim. Snapple's\u00ae Mistic RE energy drink was the first mainstream product sold in the aluminum bottle in the United States. The product is packaged in a 14-ounce bottle and sells at the retail price for $1.99 per unit. The package was first introduced to grocery and convenient store shelves in May 2002. Snapple has seen a 30 percent sales increase as a result of introducing the aluminum bottle to the market shelf. Snapple is expanding the use of aluminum bottles to other beverages in their product lines (Todd, 2003). Vincor International\u00ae, a United States winemaking company, introduced one of its products, Tabu, using an aluminum bottle beverage package. Tabu, a vodka-based beverage, was introduced to store shelves in May 2002 (\"Beverages flow boldly,\" 2002). Vincor saw Tabu double in sales, which well exceeded the company's expectations, in only its first six months on the shelf. The initial estimations were to sell 35,000 cases of the Tabu product, however sales data showed the company sold 70,000 cases in the six-month timeframe (\"Beverages flow boldly,\" 2002). The sales data is considerable, for Tabu sells at $3.95 per bottle and is only sold individually or in packages of 24 (Dennis, 2002). Most of Tabu's competitors sell their products in quantities of four or six. Ed Martin, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for CCL Container, stated, \"Vincor wanted something cutting edge. What we came up with was a 59-mm diameter with a long-necked silhouette, unlike anything of its kind in Canada. It really grabbed the attention of the marketplace\" (Kaplan, 2004, p. 59). The aluminum bottle is slightly difficult to work with and is more expensive than the PET bottle to produce. However, as mentioned before, the customers are willing to pay for the added value (Barancik, 2003). According to Hoffman (2003), \"the aluminum bottle they import from Spain costs four times as much to bring to market as glass currently, but this is due to the fact they import the bottle from Spain and are a small beverage company\" (p. 22) They do not have the potential of larger companies to pursue inhouse production of the aluminum bottle. Big Sky Brewing Company currently sells their aluminum bottles for $1.79 each and they are available in 6, 12, and 24 packs. Many innovative products emerge on the market at a higher retail prices. However, prices usually come down as manufacturing processes become well developed and companies learn how to massproduce more efficiently. These bottles are selling faster than stores can keep the shelves stocked. Customers are willing to pay the $1.79 for a bottle of beer, which is proof that they're not questioning the expense (Hoffman, 2003). With the customer's attraction to a new bottle design, the brand identity becomes greater. This creates an increase in sales because customers will buy what is familiar. New Look Attracts Customers All packaging has the potential to sell a product. When a customer goes into a store they will often check out the new package of the product they want to purchase. Not only does new packaging make customers curious about the package, the customers find out that the new package provides greater functionality than the previous package. One example is when the Coca-Cola \u00ae Corporation developed and introduced the Fridge Pack (Roskelly, 2002). This modified package allows a case to easily fit inside of a refrigerator. It's more functional than the traditional packaging because it saves space. This relates back to the aluminum bottle because companies, and customers, have seen how it is a unique package and made the switch. Capri Sun\u00ae, a juice-making company, has produced a drink packaged in aluminum and is being sold in 16.5-ounce bottles (\"Packaging strategies inside,\"2003). The company plans to stock convenience store shelves with this product to create a new market. By introducing the aluminum bottle into its juice line, they will increase brand identity by attracting new and loyal customers alike. Customers seem to be very curious when it comes to new packaging (Hein, 2003). Many customers buy a product just because of the new look, whether it is a material, graphic, shape, or product design changes. In the perfume industry, manufacturers continuously look for unique and different bottles to catch the eye of customers, intriguing them to smell their product. This is similar with the beverage industry. One of the main reasons companies are switching to aluminum is to give the customer something new and unique to look at. The aluminum bottle is a very versatile package, as mentioned before. The package has many benefits, as it is recyclable, lightweight, durable, and resealable. They are also easier to fill and pour (\"FDL have got,\" 2003). There are various qualities to this bottle over other ones to go along with the list mentioned above. An advantage with the aluminum bottle is that it can be resealed, whereas a can cannot. It can be taken more places with more convenience. The aluminum bottle is better than glass because it is lighter and more impact-resistant. The product is comparable to plastic, but aluminum is better in the aspect aluminum has better barrier properties. Today, many people are on the go with work, children, and school (just to name a few). Companies realize this and have created a beverage bottle to better suit their needs. This helps to attract this type of customer, and there are quite a few. A case study conducted by an independent research and development company compared the ability to chill and maintain the coldness of the liquid in the aluminum bottle. The company compared Danzka's\u00ae one liter aluminum bottle to a one liter glass bottle of vodka over the course of six hours. The results concluded that Danzka cooled 25\u00b0, 50 minutes faster than the glass bottle. It also took Danzka 50 minutes longer to raise it 25\u00b0 (\"The Absolut Spirits,\" 2004). Aluminum shows to have advantages over PET and glass, proving it would be a more convenient package for the on-the-go consumer. Technology Here for Aluminum Bottle Many major beverage companies are testing the aluminum bottle. The abundance of the companies investigating the bottle's potential should be enough to show those who have little interest to further pursue the development of the package. If major companies are testing the aluminum bottle as a potential package for some of their product lines, it could potentially start a major packaging revolution for all beverage lines. The companies could base their potential profitability after the success of other companies currently using the aluminum bottle for their product lines. Companies are testing the aluminum bottle worldwide, and the success companies are seeing currently in the United States and in other markets overseas in Japan and Europe, prove t","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":209493932,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In this article I shall address myself to the problem of improving the relationship between field instruction and classroom teaching, with the hope that the discussion will throw some light on the additional problem of conceptualization. I shall focus predominantly on the role of the teacher and the school because they carry major responsibility for the educational relationship between school and agency. First, however, I shall make reference to some of the previous attempts to define and resolve the problem of co-ordinating school and agency instruction, and I shall try to identify some of the causes of failure. The Present Situation Much has been said and written by both agency and school personnel about the need to integrate classroom teaching and field instruction. Chronic complaints center on the need for co-ordinated teaching of the same concepts by field and classroom teachers; for each to be better informed about the activity and role of the other; and for more agency visits by school personnel and more conferences, so that more student records can be read and student learning patterns and educational objectives evaluated more effectively. There is, moreover, a tacit acknowledgment by both agency and school personnel that a wide gulf exists between them in terms of attitude, orientation, and communication and in method, quality, and style of teaching. There have been attempts to deal with this problem. For example, many schools have experimented co-operatively with agencies in a vast number of meetings, conferences, and seminars in which agency personnel of various levels have participated. A number of schools have turned to using school-based field instructors who supervise units of students. The Council on Social Work Education has sponsored a number of workshops and studies in this area,\" And the Social Work Curriculum Study of the Council on Social Work Education has made certain recommendations that touch indirectly upon the problem of agency-school co-ordination -for delayed field work, reduced field work, and an initial period of student observation. I do not believe, however, that these activities or proposals are materially affecting the basic problem. In fact, the literature appears to reveal no new ideas for meeting it. The Social Work Curriculum Study, while not tackling the subject directly, does state: \"The implications of the idea of agency partnership in the educational process, the student in the field as a learner and the supervisor as a teacher, are increasingly accepted in","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":158455230,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2800953634","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1177\/104438946504600602","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Background: Cappuccino is a formin actin nucleator that regulates cytoskeletal organization during Drosophila oogenesis. Results: Cappuccino binds microtubules through two domains and cannot nucleate actin filaments when bound to microtubules. Conclusion: Actin filament assembly and microtubule binding are mutually exclusive activities of Cappuccino. Significance: We provide mechanistic insight into the role of formins as coordinators of the actin and microtubule cytoskeletons. Formin family actin nucleators are potential coordinators of the actin and microtubule cytoskeletons, as they can both nucleate actin filaments and bind microtubules in vitro. To gain a more detailed mechanistic understanding of formin-microtubule interactions and formin-mediated actin-microtubule cross-talk, we studied microtubule binding by Cappuccino (Capu), a formin involved in regulating actin and microtubule organization during Drosophila oogenesis. We found that two distinct domains within Capu, FH2 and tail, work together to promote high-affinity microtubule binding. The tail domain appears to bind microtubules through nonspecific charge-based interactions. In contrast, distinct residues within the FH2 domain are important for microtubule binding. We also report the first visualization of a formin polymerizing actin filaments in the presence of microtubules. Interestingly, microtubules are potent inhibitors of the actin nucleation activity of Capu but appear to have little effect on Capu once it is bound to the barbed end of an elongating filament. Because Capu does not simultaneously bind microtubules and assemble actin filaments in vitro, its actin assembly and microtubule binding activities likely require spatial and\/or temporal regulation within the Drosophila oocyte.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":5287662,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1995871057","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1074\/jbc.M113.499921","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"During the last 20 years, many works have focused on the atmospheric concentration of CO on Titan, giving contradictory results. In particular, no measurement of the CO abundance above 300 km has been done yet, due to the faint emission of CO above that altitude. On the other hand, such a study is particularly awaited as a confirmation of photochemical models that predict a uniform volume mixing ratio of CO in the whole Titan's atmosphere. Moreover, given that CO is the main reservoir of oxygen in Titan's atmosphere and its presence is linked to water, the matter is of astrobiological interest too. The analysis of VIMS (Visual & Infrared Mapping Spectrometer, onboard Cassini) daytime limb measurements of Titan at 4.7 \u03bcm, corresponding to the vibrational bands of CO, allows such a study: CO molecules are significantly excited by solar radiation and the otherwise faint infrared signal of the upper atmosphere is large, allowing to probe this region too. On the other hand, the strong non-LTE behavior of CO infrared emission above 200 km, strongly coupled to N2 and CH4 vibrational levels, represents an extra complexity of the data analysis. In order to deal with CO non-LTE emission, we have developed a non-LTE excitation deexcitation model for the first two CO vibrational levels of the two most abundant isotopologues. We consider the contribution of absorption of radiation in the fundamental, first hot and first overtone bands and evaluate the possible contribution of different collisional processes, mainly the coupling with the first excited state of N2 and with several levels of CH4. The solution of the non-LTE problem is obtained (Funke et al. 2012) through GRANADA , a non-LTE population algorithm based on Lambda iteration resolution strategy, eventually coupled to a Curtis-Matrix type approach. The result shows a significant over-population of the first Fabiano et al.: CO concentration in Titan Atmosphere 189 vibrational level above 300km and of the second level in the whole atmosphere. The possibility of further pathways for CO(1) (de)-excitation, mainly through vibrational energy transfer from to the excited states of CH4, is explored and seems to be crucial for establishing its population. We then analyze the spectra acquired by VIMS between 2004 and 2013 in the 4.7 \u03bcm region, for daytime conditions. Considering the non-LTE populations obtained above, the retrieval of CO concentration is performed with the aid of Geofit Broad Band, a nonLTE line-by-line radiative transfer code coupled to a bayesian inversion method, initially developed for the Earth's atmosphere and later adapted to other planetary atmospheres (Adriani et al. 2011). The low signal-tonoise ratio and spectral resolution of the instrument considerably complicate the data analysis. Moreover, the scattered solar radiation is not negligible below 350 km and dominates over atmospheric emission below 200 km, and hence it is taken into account as well. CO relative abundance profiles are finally obtained and discussed in the light of photochemical models predictions. Acknowledgements.

A comprehensive study was undertaken to assess various physical, chemical, and morphological properties of twelve different soi 1 s and saprol ites; and to study the performance of five septic systems in the Piedmont and Mountain regions of the state. To evaluate soil and saprolite properties, a large observation pit was dug at each site and soil and saprol i te morphological properties were evaluated on the pit wall s. Bul k samples were then coll ected from individual horizons for 1 aboratory analyses. In the laboratory, these samples were analyzed for pH, electrical conductivity (EC), cation exchange capacity (CEC), attenuation capacity for a number of chemicals, and particle size distribution. Intact core samples were also obtained from various depths (or horizons) from around the observation pit for determination of saturated hydraul ic conductivity (K,,,) , water retention, and bulk density measurements. In addition, in situ K, was measured at various depths\/locations at each site. At two of the sites, the mineralogy of clay and sand-sized particles, distribution of various types of pores, root distribution in the profile, and the possi bil ity of preferential movement of water and solutes were also determined by x-ray diffraction analysis, thin section evaluation, direct root count, and a field solute\/dye displacement experiment, respectively. To study the septic systems, soil water content and potential inside and outside the drainfield areas of the systems were monitored by neutron thermal ization and tensiometry for more than one year. Soil and saprolite samples were also collected fro: various depths and locations inside and outside the drainfield area of each system and analyzed for pH, EC, NH,-N, Ca, K, Na, Mg, NO,-N and C1 content. For the majority of the sites studied, K, decreased from top of the Bt to a minimum value in the lower part of the Bt or within the transitional (BC or B\/C) horizon. Hydraulic conductivity then increased with depth within the saprolite. For some sites, the minimum K,, occurred in the upper part of the Bt horizon. Only at one site the average K, values for the cores indicated a continuous decrease from the Bt into saprolite. Saprolite also showed appreciable capacity for holding water at saturation. However, the majority of the pores in saprolite are greater than 0.003 mm in diameter. Lower bulk density of saprol ite contributes to higher porosity and a greater capacity for holding water at saturation than expected for soil materials with the same texture as saprol ite. Most of the soils and saprol ites at our study sites had relatively low CEC. This indicates that the clay minerals in the Bt at the sites are of the 1:l clay type with low cation exchange capacity. Although for most sites the CEC of saprol ite was lower than the CEC of the Bt, the apparent CEC, i .e., CEC calculated based on the clay content, was substantially higher than the apparent CEC for the soil materials. We believe the sandand silt-sized particles in saprolite have substantial capacity for adsorbing cations. Generally, the boundaries between various soil and saprol ite horizons were not uniform. This non uniformity makes it difficult to identify the boundaries between soil and saprolite by evaluating the materials obtained from a hand-dug auger hole. Examination of the materials removed by hand boring a hole using an auger may not reveal the true identity of the materials due to crushing and mixing. Destruction of the natural structure of the transitional horizon(s) between the Bt and saprol i te may cause both incorrect interpretation of the material and horizon class designation. To identify the morphological properties of soil and saprol i te, a large observation pit must be used. Lower concentrations of some chemicals in soil and saprolite under the drainfield areas of the septic systems are related to leaching of the solutes by the applied wastewater. In one of the septic systems studied, higher concentrations of solutes were observed under the drainfield. Higher concentrations of chemicals in wastewater, low hydraul ic conductivity, 1 ack of uniform distribution of wastewater over the entire drainfield area, and lack I of management were the reasons for the presence of perched water in the drainfield area of this system. Overall, the septic systems installed in soils above saprolite, or in saprolite, appeared to be working properly for disposing wastewater. We did not directly evaluate the treatment capacity of the soils and saprol ite at any of the sites. Pretreatment of wastewater could be used for areas where soil solum and saprolite are not capable o f providing treatment, but have adequate hydraul ic properties for the disposal of treated effluent .","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":126670561,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"20068599","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"The concept of the inter-related structure of social reality, made famous over 50 years ago by Martin Luther King (1967), and scientifically articulated by the likes of Capra (1996), focuses on the complexity of life, the underlying connectedness, the systemic nature of our existence. Conventional linear thought and mechanistic reductionism necessarily yield to ideas of complexity, viewing the world as a systemic organism. Rather than studying parts to understand the whole, understanding of the whole is attempted through analysis of the relationships and connections making up the whole. Yet, the way in which we approach life is so often to deny this complexity. For instance, there is a tendency to split life into compartments or boxes, give them labels, and even give those who work in them labels, and then proceed to operate within those boxes, often ignoring and thereby negating the relationships and connections between them (Katz & Earl, 2010). The discipline-fragmented curriculum in most educational institutions is evidence of this. As Breen points out in his article on dilemmas of change, we 'zoom' in, 'fixing' one part, negating the 'complexity of the phenomenon'. We deal with 'the complicated rather than the complex and so only a part and never the whole' (Breen, 2005).","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":198740377,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2953515907","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.4102\/PYTHAGORAS.V40I1.409","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Optical blur is an inherent property of any lens system and is challenging to model in modern cameras because of their complex optical elements. To tackle this challenge, we introduce a high-dimensional neural representation of blur$-$$\\textit{the lens blur field}$$-$and a practical method for acquiring it. The lens blur field is a multilayer perceptron (MLP) designed to (1) accurately capture variations of the lens 2D point spread function over image plane location, focus setting and, optionally, depth and (2) represent these variations parametrically as a single, sensor-specific function. The representation models the combined effects of defocus, diffraction, aberration, and accounts for sensor features such as pixel color filters and pixel-specific micro-lenses. To learn the real-world blur field of a given device, we formulate a generalized non-blind deconvolution problem that directly optimizes the MLP weights using a small set of focal stacks as the only input. We also provide a first-of-its-kind dataset of 5D blur fields$-$for smartphone cameras, camera bodies equipped with a variety of lenses, etc. Lastly, we show that acquired 5D blur fields are expressive and accurate enough to reveal, for the first time, differences in optical behavior of smartphone devices of the same make and model.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":264289266,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.48550\/arXiv.2310.11535","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":"2310.11535"},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

A data rate of 200 bits per second was achieved without introducing main channel audio distortion; the digital data was recovered in an automobile over 200 miles from the transmitter site well beyond the Continental Divide through the Colorado Rocky Mountains. For the simulation study, the primary goals were to determine the level of interference between the digital baseband spectrum and the main channel audio spectrum, and to identify effective subcarrier modulation schemes. In early systems, the phase shifts modulating the main carrier were limited to +\/-15 degrees to avoid significant audio program distortion during AM detection.

+{"text":"IAn appreciation of Derrida's work can shed light on the growth and clash of fundamentalisms and on the new moralizers who based their authority on an unforgiving lit eralism and humanism. The spirit of this paper is direct ed against the new moralizers be they fundamentalist of any persuasion (Christian, Muslim or Jewish), old unreformed classical liberal humanists, new humanists, secular or Christian, still searching for a theory of human nature on which to hang their sermons, or simply those neoconservative humanists who ha ving rallied a gainst an amorphous a nd unna med nihilistic \"post - modernism\" falsely attributing the doctrine to Nietzsche or to his heirs. The new moralizers constitute a revival of an exclusive and foundational humanism demonstrating all the political and spiritual dangers of a set of essentialist beliefs in human nature - a unified theory or theology of our spiritual origin - from which is derived the \"who\" and what \"we\" are, the moral code \"we\" should follow, and both who belongs to the \"we\" and how those who belong should treat non-believers. In the USA, UK and elsewhere, the term \"the new moralizers\" has been consistently applied to the social conservatives that have brought a new vision of morality based on a view of human nature and made it central to public policy, making determinations of individual virtue fundamental to welfare entitlement (Super, 2004). This shift in public policy paradigm has also been accompanied by the growth of conservative politics that has drawn upon the politicization of funda mentalist Christian groups going back to Ronald Reagan's administration.The term \"fundamentalism\" itself originates in the late nineteenth century as a movement by evangelic Christians, against modernism, to affirm a set of \"fundamental\" beliefs, namely \"the five fundamentals\" - the inspiration of the Bible by the Holy Spirit, the virgin birth, the belief that Christ's death was an atonement for sin, the bodily resurrection and the historical reality of Christ's miracles. The new fundamentalism in American politics began with Robert Grant's Christian Cause in the mid 1970s and Jerry Falwell's Moral Majority in the 1980s. Fundamentalism now has been used to describe both Islamic fundamentalism and Jewish fundamentalism (Shahak & Mezvinsky, 1999; Ruthven, 2004; Sim, 2004). In each case, these fundamentalisms are a reaction to an atheistic modernism and advocate a return to Christian, Islamic, Judaic values, law, beliefs and practices. In each case also this implies a set of literalist convictions in relation to scripture or sacred texts and a belief in the unmediated truth of the word. Literalism has a privileged place in these belief systems: la ngua ge is always taken in a non-figurative sense. In its strictest sense scriptural literalism is a denial of allegory, parable or metaphor. On this ba sis funda mentalism oft en implies a set of beliefs i n a n onto - theological story of creation, man's nature and place, and the biological and social roles of men, women, and children. Scholars have applied the notion a lso to non-s ecular gr oups such a s t he militant animal rights a ctivists, fundamentalist nationalisms or ethnicities such as Le Pen's National Front in France, a nd even, neo-libera ls as \" mar ket funda menta lists\" (Sim, 2004; Thompson, 2006).Derrida, both the man and his work, represents an ongoing struggle against all fundamentalisms, against all easy definitions, dogmas, and literalisms that proclaim truth and universalism on the basis of religious and supernatural explanations of t he origins of the world. His own background born into a Sephardic Jewish family near Algiers immediately calls into question his own identity as \"French\" and \"Jewish.\" He experienced anti-semitism in the French Algerian school system still under Vichy laws; the marginalization and \"feeling of nonbelonging,\" as Brian Reilly (2006: 498) points out, \"would come to affect all areas of his life. \u2026","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":171981631,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2604098724","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Considering that only a small proportion of these individuals will be diagnosed with an IA within the next 12 months, predicting disease progression in these patients appears to be more challenging.To investigate factors that could be associated with disease progression in patients testing CCP- in order to optimise primary care referrals to Rheumatology.A prospective observational study recruiting patients over 16 years old with a new MSK complaint and no clinical synovitis was conducted. Patients recruited from primary care centres across the UK from July 2007 until November 2018 were included in this analysis. Those testing negative for the anti-CCP2 assay (initially phadia, later bioplex) were sent questionnaires 1 year later, and GPs were contacted in November 2019 to confirm their disease status.7521 eligible patients were recruited from primary care. 7290 (97%) of them were CCP- and 5678 returned the questionnaire after 1 year. 239 patients (4.2%) of these CCP- reported progression to IA; however, this diagnosis was only confirmed in 53 of them (0.93%). In another 38 patients, the IA diagnosis could not be confirmed and therefore they were not included in the analysis. 21 patients progressed to rheumatoid arthritis (RA), 13 to spondyloarthritis, 11 to polymyalgia rheumatica (requiring disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs), 3 to polymyositis, 3 to systemic lupus erythematosus and 2 to systemic sclerosis.

Many engineering structures consist of specially-fabricated identical components, thus their topology optimizations with multiobjectives are of particular importance. This paper presents a unified optimization algorithm for multifunctional 3D finite periodic structures, in which the topological sensitivities at the corresponding locations of different components are regulated to maintain the structural periodicity. To simultaneously address the stiffness and conductivity criteria, a weighted average method is employed to derive Pareto front. The examples show that the optimal objective functions could be compromised when the total number of periodic components increases. The influence of thermoelastic coupling on optimal topologies and objectives is also investigated. 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

+{"text":"Background and purpose of the study : Several methods are available for control release of propranolol hydrochloride (PLH). The aim of the present study was to develop a novel technique to sustain PLH release from matrices. Materials and methods : Matrices of PLH containing sodium carboxymethylcellulose (Na CMC) and various amounts of the inorganic cations Ca 2+ and Al 3+ were prepared. Dissolution of the matrices was carried out using the USP apparatus I. Analysis of release data was performed by some model independent and dependent approaches.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Results : The release of PLH was affected by incorporation of different amounts (milliequivalents, meq) of Ca 2+ and Al 3+ . When the Ca 2+ amount increased from 0- 0.375 meq, the fraction of PLH which released within 480 min was augmented from 0.74 to 1 apparently via disintegrating effect of the cation. Al 3+ in the range 0- 0.125 meq, decreased the fractional release from 0.74 to 0.37 presumably by in situ cross- linking with polymer. Al 3+ between 0.125 and 0.5 meq enhanced the release from 0.37 to 1 possibly due to the disintegrating effect. Among model independent metrics, the mean release time (MRT) failed to represent the effect of the cations on the release but the release efficiency (RE) as well as a suggested mean release rate (MRR) correlated well with the experimental release rate. Due to the complexity of the release, the only suitable kinetic model was the Weibull distribution. The minimum and maximum Weibull release rate constants for matrices containing Al 3+ were 0.0007-0.017 1\/min. The corresponding values for the matrices with Ca 2+ were 0.0029-0.0082 1\/min. Conclusion : Through careful choice of the amount of Al 3+ in NaCMC matrices the release of PLH can be controlled at a desired rate. The best model independent approach is MRR and the most accurate model dependent method is Weibull distribution to describe the release data.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":55336300,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1570578335","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Both MT and COL-BSSs should rotate fast,but braking mechanisms may intervene with efficiencies and time-scales unknown,thus preventing a clear prediction of the expected rotational velocities. In this context,an extensive survey is ongoing by using FLAMES@VLT, with the aim to obtain abundance patterns and rotational velocities for representative samples of BSSs in Galactic GCs.A sub-population of CO-depleted BSSs has been identified in 47 Tuc,with only one fast rotating star detected (Ferraro et al.2006). For this PhD Thesis work I analyzed FLAMES spectra of more than 130 BSSs in 4 GCs:M4,NGC 6397,M30 and {\\omega}Centauri.This is the largest BSS sample spectroscopically investigated so far.Hints of CO-depletion have been observed in only 4-5 cases (in M30 and {\\omega}Centauri),suggesting either that the majority of BSSs have a collisional origin, or that CO- depletion is a transient phenomenon.Unfortunately,no conclusions in terms of formation mechanism could be drawn in a large number of cases,because of the effects of radiative levitation.Remarkably,this is the first time that evidence of radiative levitation is found in BSSs hotter than 8200 K.Finally,we also discovered the largest fractions of fast rotating BSSs ever observed in any GCs:40% in M4 and 30% in {\\omega}Centauri.

But, in fact, the Abbot of Rievaux did nothing of the kind. The actual circumstances of his immersion are given by his biographer, Walter Daniel, a monk at Rievaux while Aelred was abbot there. Daniel records as follows: \". . . he [Aelred] had built a small chamber of brick under the floor of the novice-house like a little tank into which water flowed from hidden rills (cui per occultus aqua influebat). Its opening was shut by a very broad stone in such a way that nobody would notice it. Aelred would enter this contrivance when he was alone and undisturbed and immerse his whole body in the icy cold water and so quench the heat in himself of every vice.\" 3 On this passage Sir Maurice Powicke comments: \"The probatorium at Rievaux was apparently built over a spring for Aelred (would stand) up to the neck in a bath which he had caused to be made in the floor and which was concealed by a stone.\" 4 I have not seen Gougaud's book, but, assuming that he went to the primary source for the Cistercian saint's immersion, that is, Daniel's Life, it is difficult to understand how he could transfer the abbot from a private man-made tank into a natural and noisy body of water. It may be mentioned, also, that this latter way of immersion is much less in harmony with Aelred's dignified and equable personality, one \"guided by strong common sense,\" as Powicke says, than is the prosaic method in his own novice-house that he actually followed.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":161811229,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1965060825","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1017\/S0017816000019842","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The objective of this study was to determine the N necessary for maximizing seed yield and oil content. Experiment 1 was conducted at Casselton, ND, in 2005 and at Glyndon, MN, in 2005 and 2006 in which fertility treatments (soil + fertilizer N) were 44,60,80,100,150, and 200 kg N ha -1 .

As N fertility increased, plant tissue NO 3 -N increased, but as developmental stage advanced, plant NO 3 -N was diluted and decreased. According to the regression model, maximum total N uptake at harvest occurred at 139 kg N ha -1 , which includes N from the fertilizer and from the soil.

+{"text":"Boron nitride nanotubes have been proposed of having great potential in various applications due to their outstanding properties such as high thermal conductivity and excellent chemical stability. Here, we present a template-assisted method of synthesizing vertically-aligned boron nitride nanotubes (VA-BNNTs) from vertically-aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes (VA-SWCNTs). This approach involves a chemical vapor deposition of boron nitride layers coating onto VA-SWCNTs first and subsequent removal of VA-SWCNTs by the oxidation in pure oxygen. The obtained VA-SWCNTs covered by BNNTs and VA-BNNTs arrays retain a highly ordered vertically aligned structure. The thermal stability of VA-SWCNTs was enhanced by coating with BNNTs. The structure and crystalline conditions were characterized by scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscope. The chemical composition of samples was investigated by UV\u2013Vis\u2013NIR absorption spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy. Boron nitride coating starts onto VA-SWCNTs from the top of the VA-SWCNTs array, which is confirmed by NanoSIMS characterization.

The uncertainties of fault classification and complicated working conditions become important research fields of steam turbine generator. A probability method on the uncertainty reasoning of fault classification for steam turbine generator is proposed in this paper based on the 2D-holospectrum and Bayesian decision theory. Firstly, Bayesian decision theory is adopted for the preliminary fault estimation on actual risk loss by calculating the loss expectation of each decision. Then, the area ratio of overlap region in 2D-holospectrum and the evidence theory can give the probability of the fault. Framework and model of the uncertainty reasoning are also described in this paper. Finally, the model is verified by the experiment of the rotor vibration on test rig.

+{"text":"1.1. Why Study Membranes and Membrane Proteins? \nBiological membranes and membrane proteins, responsible for numerous exciting biological processes, present one of the paramount challenges in biophysics today. Membranes are present in great number and variety in all organisms. They form the boundary between the inside and outside for any bacterium or cell, and they delimit the host of organelles that make up their inner subunits. Each biological membrane is made up of dozens of different types of lipids and sterols, and any particular type of membrane has a characteristic content of these different constituents. As a very basic example, we mention that prokaryotic membranes contain a notable component of negatively charged lipids but almost no cholesterol, while eukaryotic membranes are mostly zwitterionic but have a significant amount of cholesterol. Since the driving biophysical principles of membrane formation are very simple\u2014they lie in the amphipathic properties of any lipid molecule\u2014a single lipid type is sufficient to form membrane-like bilayers in an aqueous environment. Such model membranes are used extensively to study biophysical properties that are representative for most membrane systems. A particularly interesting effect is observed when detergent molecules are added to lipid bilayer samples: the detergents solubilize the bilayers, and in certain regimes so-called bilayered mixed micelles or \"bicelles\" are formed. In the simplest case, they can be described as microscopic disks where a bilayer patch is encircled by a \"rim\" of detergent molecules. Bicelles represent a new instance of lipid morphology and are extensively applicable to structural studies of lipid membranes and protein structure.1 \n \nMembranes delimit any cell and all of its compartments. They form natural borders for metabolic substances and signaling molecules. Membrane proteins are the porters and gatekeepers that make sure that only proper molecules or signals make it across the membrane. Since membrane proteins perform numerous key functions in cell metabolism and signaling, they contribute over 30% of the genes in typical eukaryotic genomes,2 and they form the targets for over 50% of drugs in use today.3 The number of elucidated structures of membrane proteins has grown exponentially after the first structure was published in 1985, thus equaling the rate at which structure determination of soluble proteins emerged early on.4 Still, the number of available high-resolution structures of membrane proteins is limited. There are Internet sites that keep track of newly published structures of membrane proteins. The crystallography-oriented Web site of Dr. Stephen White [http:\/\/blanco.biomol.uci.edu\/mpstruc] has recently been joined by another site maintained by Dr. Dror Warschawski that is dedicated to structures of membrane proteins elucidated by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy [www.drorlist.com\/nmr\/MPNMR.html]. Another equally important site of Dr. Hartmut Michel [www.mpibp-frankfurt.mpg.de\/michel\/public\/memprotstruct.html] with an emphasis on crystallization conditions is no longer updated, but states that access is still enabled. \n \nIn this review article, we aim to give a general overview of lipid bicelles as employed in the study of protein structure. Recent advances in the field of protein structural biology that have been made possible by exploiting the unique properties of lipid bicelles, in both solution and solid-state NMR spectroscopy, will be discussed. During the last five years, review contributions have presented bicelles either within the far more general context of reconstitution media for solution NMR studies (see section 1.4) or have focused on macroscopically aligned bicelles as used for solid-state NMR studies.5,6 One very recent contribution has tackled the formidable task of reviewing all membrane mimetics employed in both solution and solid-state NMR studies.7 As mentioned above, we will limit the contents of this review article to applications of lipid bicelles, but will cover both the isotropic and the aligned bicelles as used in NMR studies. Some parts of this article can be viewed as an update on the review articles of Opella and Marassi,8 Marcotte and Auger,9 and Prosser et al.10 In addition, some of our own recent research involving bicelles is presented in detail.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":16008036,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1998247886","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1021\/cr300061w","PubMedCentral":"3497859","ArXiv":null},"license":"publisher-specific-oa","url":"https:\/\/pubs.acs.org\/doi\/pdf\/10.1021\/cr300061w","status":"HYBRID"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Self-compacting concrete (SCC) represents an innovation in the building industry due to its workability. This type of concrete can flow under its own weight, fill in formwork and pass between bars without need compaction, but the mixture proportions for SCC differ essentially. The higher powder content, limited volume and nominal maximum size of aggregate, larger quantity of super-plasticizers make design requirements in achieving the self-compacting concrete. The bond between SCC and reinforcing steel bars is an essential requirement for design of reinforced concrete structures. The current study investigate the effect of various parameters that affect the bond behavior between SCC and steel rebars at the maximum shear strength zone such as : concrete compressive strength, splice length ,concrete cover , the effect of confining steel and level of confinement, Evaluate the applicability of various lap splice equations, in different building codes and standards, for calculating lap splice in self-compacting concrete beams ,Finally compare between bond behavior of lap splice in conventional concrete and SCC . even lower strengths. Most studies agree that the bond strength of rebars in SCC is larger than that in NVC. Many researches were reported on bond strength between concrete and deformed bars for both normal strength and high strength concrete. Experimental tests were done and analytical equations were proposed by some researchers. Twelve full-scale beam specimens (2000 \u00b7 300 \u00b7 200 mm) were tested in positive bending [6] with the loading system de- signed to determine the effect of self-compacting concrete (SCC) and the diameter of reinforcement on bond\u2013slip charac- teristics of tension lap-slices. The specimens of lap-splice series were tested with lap-spliced bars centered on the midspan in a region of constant positive bending. The results showed that load transfer within the tension lap-spliced bars embedded in SCC in a reinforced concrete beam was better than that of the tension lap-spliced bars embedded in NC. The beam spec- imens produced from SCC had generally longer cracks in length than the beams produced from NC regardless of the reinforcing bar diameter. The project of Cattaneo and Rosati [7] included the testing of 27 pullout specimens containing one embedded reinforce- ment bar. The main variables were reinforcement bar diame- ter, fiber existence and confinement. Two types of tests were considered: unconfined and confined pullout. The tests showed a significant size effect on bond strength: the smaller bar diam- eter exhibited a higher strength than the larger one. The bond strength of self-consolidating concrete was found to be higher than normal strength concrete. The concrete cover, 4.5B, where B is the bar diameter, was not sufficient to prevent split- ting failure in SCC. The steel stress of B2 and B3 is about 93.4% and 39.6% of B1. The smaller steel stress of beams B3 in comparison to B1 can be attributed to the smaller cover of B1 than others, which enable this beam to exhibit larger steel stress before failure.

Correspondece to: Dr. Raj Kumar, Associate Professor, Deptt. of Neurosurgery Sanjay Gandhi PGIMS Lucknow 226014, U.P (India). Introduction In the pediatric population, chronic subdural fluid collection is group of related condition termed as extracerebral (or extra-axial) fluid collection (1). Chronic subdural fluid collection can present as chronic subdural hematoma or subdural effusion (2). The term subdural hygroma, subdural hydroma, chronic subdural hematoma and beningn extracerebral fluid collection etc have been used very loosely in past to describe the same entity. While the condition of benign external hydrocephalus (benign extra cerebral fluid collection) has been recognized as different entity from above described entities, as it is a self limiting disease of infancy (3). Modern neuroimaging techniques, however have greatly advanced our understanding of these conditions. Surprisingly not much literature exists on the subject, and publications before the advent of modern computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging-MRI (1). It is an entity of common interest to pediatricians, physicians and neurosurgeons. The author highlights his experience of subdural fluid collection in small children of less than 2 year age, the role of conservative treatment is emphasized. Pathophysiology and Terminology Excessive fluid within the subarachnoid space occurs with communicating hydrocephalus and in a selflimited condition known by various terms, including benign expansion of the subarachnoid spaces and benign external hydrocephalus (1). According to other theory, the benign external hydrocephalus is thought to occur because of the atersia of arachnoid villi leading to failed CSF absorption and it's (CSF) consequent accumulation in subarachnoid space (4). Hence this entity is different from other subdural fluid collections i.e. effusion, haematoma or hygroma. Chronic accumulation of fluid within the subdural space may occur as the results of one or more of three distinct processes. The most straight forward of these occurs when liquefication of an acute subdural hematoma results in chronic subdural hematoma (CSH) formation. It has been postulated that the thick viscous fluid, increases in volume because of gradients in oncotic pressure. Although this may occur as early as blood and proteins degrade, most investigators believe that rebleeding is the main agent causing persistence of the subdural hematoma (1). The second type of subdural fluid collection occurs after an opening in the arachnoid, which allows CSF to enter the subdural space. The CSF mixes with varying amounts of blood, resulting in a thin xanthochromic fluid, sometimes termed a subdural hygroma (1). The third type of subdural fluid accumulation is purulent. Subdural empyemas may result from direct extension of sinusitis or otitis media into the epidural space and then the subdural space. Purulent subdural collections are also occasionally seen after episodes of bacterial meningitis, especially due to haemophilus influenza (1). Causes The most common cause of subdural fluid collection in children is meningitis in about 42% cases (2) (Fig.1).

Persistent anemia has been observed in patients with ileal pouches, for which identification of etiology can be challenging. Aim To assess the utility of WCE in ileal pouch patients with persistent anemia in conjunction with other diagnostic modalities. Methods Ulcerative colitis patients with persistent anemia (hemoglobin <10\u2009g\/dL) at least 12 months after either ileal pouch-anal anastomosis or continent ileostomy surgery were studied. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy, pouch endoscopy, WCE, and celiac disease serology were studied. The final diagnosis of the etiology of anemia was based on the results from the combined assessment of clinical, endoscopic, histologic, and laboratory data. Results Seventeen ileal pouch patients (10 females, 7 males) with underlying inflammatory bowel disease were studied with a mean age 42.1\u00b115.2 years. Nine patients (52.9%) had active pouchitis and 3 (17.6%) had Crohn's disease (CD). WCE was successfully completed in 16 patients (94.1%).

+{"text":"The influence of transfer factor in the test system has been investigated to assess whether the PHA response in defective patients could be improved. A quantity of transfer factor was prepared from a normally responsive subject according to the method of Lawrence (Lawrence & Al-Askari 1971) and tested in vitro on seven patients with active sarcoidosis, one patient with chronic lymphatic leukemia and one patient with Hodgkin's disease. Six of the seven patients with sarcoidosis showed some improvement towards normal over their previous poor response, as did the patient with chronic lymphatic leukxmia. The patient with Hodgkin's disease was unresponsive both with and without transfer factor. The LMI test is thought to be a measure of cell-mediated immunity and the finding that transfer factor can improve the results when these are defective would support that concept. PHA is the best known of the mitogens but there are a number of others, including concanavallin A, pokeweed mitogen, and the Gramnegative lipopolysacchides of which E. coli endotoxin is one. It has been shown that PHA and concanavallin A mainly stimulate T lymphocytes, E. coli endotoxin stimulates B lymphocytes and pokeweed mitogen stimulates both B and T lymphocytes (Greaves & Janossy 1972). Although the other mitogens have similar effects in humans as in animals the Gram-negative lipopolysaccharides have not so far been shown to have any effect in humans. Therefore in the LMI test concanavallin A and pokeweed mitogen would be expected to have an effect but E. coli endotoxin probably would not, first because the test appears to be a measure ofT lymphocyte function and, secondly, in other systems tested it does not have an effect on human cells. The response to these mitogens has been investigated in ten healthy control subjects. Concanavallin A shows a similar response to that seen with PHA except that, as has been shown in other systems, the response is less marked. Pokeweed mitogen produces very little effect. E. coli endotoxin, perhaps surprisingly, does have some action. With doses ranging from 0.1 ,ug\/ml to 500 ,tg\/ml a flat curve response was produced which suggests that this is not just a toxic effect.

+{"text":"ion of the organization in its environment is a set of interest groups or constituencies. Conolly et al. (1980) might be denoted as the ones that gave this point of view its name. But. obviously, in fact the emergence of the multiple constituency approach can be considered as the outcome of an evolutionary process in which both the goal and the system-resource approach played an important role. In the course of the process, several authors published resembling insights within a relatively short period of time (e.g., Hickson et aI., 1971: Goodman and Pennings, 1977; Pfeffer and Salancik, 1978). Indeed, Conolly et at. do elaborate upon the integration with views that had already been developed (p.213-214). It is therefore only logical that the mUltiple constituency approach does not reject or replace the traditional approaches, but instead supplements them. The basic logic of the multiple constituency approach is as follows. Depending on the level of analysis, individuals, groups of individuals, or organizations, i.e., constituencies become involved with a focal organization for various reasons. These reasons are reflected in their preferences and expectations for the organization's performance. The multiple constituencies have interests that they attempt to satisfy through the organization. Effectiveness is defined as the extent to which the multiple constituencies are satisfied with an organization's performance. In the words ofTsui (1990, pAS8): 'while several variants of the MC model exist, the central tenet across all the variants is that an organization is effective to the extent it satisfies the interests of one or more constituencies associated with the organization'. A fundamental difference with the traditional approaches now becomes plain. It is proposed that different as opposed to single statements on an organization's effectiveness can be made. Conolly et al. (o.c., p. 212) state: 'we propose to relax this [the singularity, JW&MvR] assumption. Specifically, we propose a view of organizational effectiveness in which several (or, potentially, many) different effectiveness statements can be made about the focal organization, reflecting the criterion sets of different individuals and groups we shall refer to as constituencies'. Like the goal approach, the multiple constituency perspective directs attention to the outcomes of an organization's performance. Moreover, the mUltiple constituency approach explains that organizations have multiple goals because they have multiple constituencies. As Robbins (1990, p.64) notes: 'No goal or set of goals that management selects is entirely value-free. Each implicitly, if not explicitly, will favour some constituencies over others'. Obviously, Robbins","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":55830041,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2145042549","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The user interface not only provides the means to navigate and search across multiple codebooks, but the ability to edit DDI through simple and intuitive web forms. This allows us to collaboratively curate DDI metadata. However, in addition to the study it describes, the DDI document itself evolves over time. Tracking and documenting these changes is an essential part of a researcher's job. Rather than modifying the existing DDI Codebook schema, the CED 2 AR project uses Git, a distributed version control system traditionally built for software development. Git allows CED 2 AR to show how DDI metadata changes over time, and can retrieve old versions or parallel branches of the metadata.

+{"text":"Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) currently accounts for 2% to 6% of all breast cancer cases in the United States and up to 20% of all breast cancer cases globally. IBC exhibits distinctively aggressive clinical features compared to all breast cancers, and accounts for a disproportionally high mortality rate\u201415% of breast cancer-related deaths in U.S. In addition, the survival rates between stage-matched IBC and non-IBC differ drastically. Therefore, we are in need of better understanding the molecular abnormalities driving IBC aggressive phenotype. We performed a study to evaluate the genomic alterations in cell free DNA (cfDNA) from plasma from 13 IBC patients, including 9 with triple-negative disease. In 6 patients, mutation analyses were also studied in tumor samples (tumor tissue or tumor cells from pleural effusions). Mutation analysis was performed by next-generation sequencing (NGS) using a unique molecular identifiers (UMI) assay and a panel of 93 breast cancer-related genes (Qiagen). The data were analyzed using the Qiagen9s GeneGlobe portal and Biomedical Genomics Workbench and interpretation was performed with Qiagen9s QCI. Somatic mutations detected in cfDNA samples were seen in: TP53 (7\/13), RB1 (2\/13), GEN1 (2\/13) and EP300 (2\/13); additional somatic mutations were found in PIK3CA (1\/13), ERBB2 (1\/13), PALB2 (1\/13) and MUC16 (1\/13). In 4 patients with plasma and tumor samples taken at the same time of the disease progression, complete concordance was not found in the somatic mutations detected in cfDNA and tumor cells DNA. Interestingly, in 12 of 13 IBC patients some variants were observed with high variant allele frequencies (VAF), ~50% or ~100% at a total coverage depth \u2265230 reads, in the following genes: BRCA2 (1\/13), RAD51D (2\/13), PALB2 (1\/13), RAD51C (1\/13), AR (1\/13) and MUTYH (1\/13), which were classified as pathogenic or likely pathogenic, and BARD1 (3\/13), SYNE1 (2\/13), KMT2C (2\/13), BRIP1 (1\/13), XRCC3 (1\/13), RET (1\/13), APC (1\/13), RAD50 (1\/13) and MUC16 (1\/13), classified as variants of uncertain significance. Moreover, 11 of these patients had a family history of different cancers including breast, colon, prostate, stomach, bladder, cervical cancers, and melanoma and myeloma. In the 6 patients where cfDNA and tumor samples were available, mutations with high VAF were found in both samples (100% concordance), suggesting that variants with high VAF are germline variants. These results suggest that the described germline variants could increase the risk of IBC and somatic mutation information obtained from cfDNA is complementary to that obtained from tissue samples.

+{"text":"Simple Summary Tumor cells interact with endothelial cells via chloride intracellular channel protein 1 (CLIC1) micro vesicles transfer, inducing endothelial cell proliferation, migration, and tube formation, according to in vitro studies. Furthermore, CLIC1-positive tumor cells appear to have a high invasive and metastasis potential in vitro, but data on human tumor tissues are extremely scarce. CLIC1 expression in tumor blood vessels is reported for the first time here, suggesting CLIC1 as a new endothelial marker. CLIC1 co-expression in tumor and endothelial cells stratified ccRCC cases into several subgroups, and this co-expression influences TNM staging parameters. Based on these findings, we can conclude that CLIC1 is important in angiogenesis, tumor progression, and metastasis in ccRCC. CLIC1 inhibition may have a synergistic effect on tumor cells, as well as tumor vasculature, as our team previously reported for a ccRCC patient-derived tumor xenograft implanted on a chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane treated with anti-CLIC1 antibodies. Abstract Background: Overexpression of chloride intracellular channel protein 1 (CLIC1) in tumor cells has been confirmed, but it has received less attention in the tumor blood vessel endothelium. Aim: The assessment of CLIC1 expression in ccRCC tumor blood vessels and its relationship with TNM parameters and tumor cell CLIC1 expression. Methods: CLIC1 immunostaining in ccRCC was evaluated in 50 cases in both malignant cells and tumor blood vessels (CLIC1 microvessel density-CLIC1-MVD) and was correlated with TNM staging parameters. Results: CLIC1-MVD was observed in approximately 65% of cases, and CLIC1 co-localization in both tumor and endothelial cells was observed in 59% of cases. ccRCC was classified into four groups (Classes 0\u20133) based on the percentage of positive tumor cells, with each group including sub-groups defined by CLIC1 expression in the endothelium. Class 3 (60\u2013100% positive tumor cells) had the highest CLIC1-MVD, with an impact on T and M parameters (p value = 0.007 for T, and p value = 0.006 for M). For cases with CLIC1 intracellular translocation, there was a strong correlation between CLIC1-MVD and M (p value < 0.001). Conclusions: Co-expression of ccRCC tumor and endothelial cells promotes tumor progression and metastasis and should be investigated further as a potential therapeutic target for ccRCC and other human malignancies.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":254328598,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3390\/cancers14235981","PubMedCentral":"9740861","ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2072-6694\/14\/23\/5981\/pdf?version=1670330290","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The results indicate support for our conjecture that carefully designed computer simulations can offer new ways for harnessing causality to facilitate students' meaning-making for variation in distributions of data.

In this paper, a timefrequency analysis method i.e., short time Fourier transform (STFT) algorithm, is employed to process wrapped phase maps in digital holographic interferometry (DHI). In the proposed STFT method, phase unwrapping operations are effectively avoided in both spatial and temporal domains and the errors along the time axis can be more effectively suppressed.

+{"text":"Magnetic field (MF) analysis in wireless power transfer systems (WPTSs) is one of the key problems. This paper proposes an optimization algorithm to determine the MF by calculating the simplified Biot\u2013Savart integral. The number of intervals (NOIs) in the integral is the key to the accuracy and efficiency of the algorithm. The maximum of the MF changes sharply with NOI, leading to a bad optimal NOI. To solve this problem, two methods are used. First, according to the positions of the maximum, the relatively high value, and the idea of noise-point-elimination in digital image processing, the maximum value filtered method (MVFM) is proposed. The second method is the two-dimensional (2-D) feature selective validation (FSV). By combining the MVFM and the 2D-FSV, on an NOI step equaling to 10, the optimal NOI is decreased from 350 to 90, which significantly meets the balance of the accuracy and efficiency. Furthermore, for a variable NOI step situation, local and global optimal NOIs have been analyzed. MVFM is not only suitable for the MF calculation in WPTSs but also for when the maximum value needs to be addressed. 2D-FSV also expands the application from the final result evaluation to the evaluation in an algorithm.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":116377282,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2887709098","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/TEMC.2018.2858925","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

They were then intravenously infused with either dopamine (2 to 32 micrograms\/kg\/min) or fenoldopam (1 to 100 micrograms\/kg\/min), which is a selective agonist of the dopamine-1 receptor.\n\n\nMEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS\nBlood pressure was only significantly increased by the highest infusion rate of dopamine (32 micrograms\/kg\/min), from a mean of 78 mm Hg at baseline to 87 mm Hg. Mesenteric and renal vascular resistances were unchanged by dopamine at any dose. Dopamine at 32 micrograms\/kg\/min decreased renal blood flow by 16.6 +\/- 19.6 (SD) % and increased renal vascular resistance by 39.6 +\/- 41.1% (p < .05). Mesenteric blood flow increased by 15% at 32 micrograms\/kg\/min (p < .05) but mesenteric vascular resistance was not affected by dopamine. Fenoldopam reduced blood pressure at infusion rates of 5, 10, and 100 micrograms\/kg\/min. Fenoldopam had no effect on renal vascular resistance at any dose. Fenoldopam reduced mesenteric vascular resistance at 5 micrograms\/kg\/min and at all higher doses.\n\n\nCONCLUSIONS\nThese data demonstrate the absence of dopaminergic receptor-mediated vasodilation in the porcine neonatal renal vascular bed. In the mesenteric artery, dopamine-1 receptor-mediated vasodilation may be obtained. Dopamine itself, probably because of stimulation of other receptors, causes renal artery vasoconstriction and does not increase superior mesenteric artery blood flow.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":24469844,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1997490414","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1097\/00003246-199610000-00018","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

A hypothesis is presented to explain how aphids acquire virus during superficial probes into infected plants. No significant correlations could be found between any waveform and the inoculation of BYMV.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":35470064,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2326308793","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1093\/AESA\/62.6.1398","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Information about the spatial variation of phosphorus (P) in soils is required for developing site\u2010specific P fertilizer management practices and assessing environmental effects of P fertilization. In China fields may be as small as 500 m2 and the question is whether the side by side of different farm management practices have an effect upon the spatial variation of soil P. In the present investigation, top soil samples (0\u201320 cm) were taken in a regular grid of 15 by 15 m in six fields with up to 12 management plots (0.06\u20130.4 ha). Each of these six fields was managed by 6 to 12 farmers. The elevation of the six fields varied at maximum by 1.24 m. The P content of soils was determined in the following extractants: 0.5 M NaHCO3 (Olsen method), 0.3 M CH3COOH + 0.05 M calcium acetate + calcium lactate (CAL method) and 0.43 M HNO3 (Westerhoff extract). The P content determined by the Olsen method was significant y lower than that by the CAL method and Westerhoff extract. A close relationship between Olsen P and CAL P was found (r2 = 0.60). 24% of all samples were P deficient with values < 5 mg P kg\u2212 1 extracted by 0.5 M NaHCO3. The coefficient of variation was 34.5%, 36.9%, and 16.5% for P in the Olsen, CAL and Westerhoff extract, respectively. Topography had no significant influence on the soil P status.

However, the results available in developing adaptive control to address such a problem are still limited. Especially a majority of them are restricted to be slowly time\u2010varying linear systems. This paper presents a modular\u2010based adaptive control scheme for parametric strict feedback nonlinear time\u2010varying systems. The parameters considered include both continuous and piecewise time\u2010varying parameters, and they are not necessarily restricted to be slowly time\u2010varying or infrequent jumping. The technique of adaptive backstepping with nonlinear damping is employed in the control design module, while the parameter projection algorithm is performed on the parameter estimation module. It is proved that the uniform boundedness of all closed\u2010loop system signals can be guaranteed with the proposed control scheme. The performance of the tracking error in the mean square sense with respect to the parameter variation rate is also established. Furthermore, perfect asymptotically tracking can be achieved when the varying rates of unknown parameters are in the L2 space.

The protocol overcomes some of the weaknesses of other existing location-based routing protocols such as Zone-based Hierarchical Link State (ZHLS) and GRID. A detailed analysis of the LGHR routing protocol is performed and its performance is compared with both the above-mentioned protocols.

+{"text":"Objective and Background: Decades of research in the field of steady-state visual evoked potentials (SSVEPs) have revealed great potential of rhythmic light stimulation for brain\u2013computer interfaces. Additionally, rhythmic light stimulation provides a non-invasive method for entrainment of oscillatory activity in the brain. Especially effective protocols enabling non-perceptible rhythmic stimulation and, thereby, reducing eye fatigue and user discomfort are favorable. Here, we investigate effects of (1) perceptible and (2) non-perceptible rhythmic light stimulation as well as attention-based effects of the stimulation by asking participants to focus (a) on the stimulation source directly in an overt attention condition or (b) on a cross-hair below the stimulation source in a covert attention condition. Method: SSVEPs at 10 Hz were evoked with a light-emitting diode (LED) driven by frequency-modulated signals and amplitudes of the current intensity either below or above a previously estimated individual threshold. Furthermore, we explored the effect of attention by asking participants to fixate on the LED directly in the overt attention condition and indirectly attend it in the covert attention condition. By measuring electroencephalography, we analyzed differences between conditions regarding the detection of reliable SSVEPs via the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and functional connectivity in occipito-frontal(-central) regions. Results: We could observe SSVEPs at 10 Hz for the perceptible and non-perceptible rhythmic light stimulation not only in the overt but also in the covert attention condition. The SNR and SSVEP amplitudes did not differ between the conditions and SNR values were in all except one participant above significance thresholds suggested by previous literature indicating reliable SSVEP responses. No difference between the conditions could be observed in the functional connectivity in occipito-frontal(-central) regions. Conclusion: The finding of robust SSVEPs even for non-intrusive rhythmic stimulation protocols below an individual perceptibility threshold and without direct fixation on the stimulation source reveals strong potential as a safe stimulation method for oscillatory entrainment in naturalistic applications.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":233228866,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3389\/fnrgo.2021.646225","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/www.frontiersin.org\/articles\/10.3389\/fnrgo.2021.646225\/pdf","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Editor's Note: The author also submitted this article as a technical paper, to be included in the proceedings for the XIV World Congress of Accountants, Washington, D.C., October 11-14, 1992. The event is held every five years and has been held at several different cities around the world. One of the fundamental principles of democracy is that a government is accountable to the citizens of the nation. In the final analysis, this accountability is implemented through the ballot box. All democratic governments must, from time to time, present themselves to an electorate which has the power to continue that government in office or to select another. A MODEL OF ACCOUNTABILITY Accountability, however, means much more than just the requirement to face an electorate. For the electorate to exercise its choices responsibly, the citizenry must understand its choices and know what its government is doing. This requires that voters be informed of the government's activities in at least two important respects. First, an accountable government owes the citizen a clear explanation of the policies that the government has chosen to pursue and of the anticipated consequences of those policies. Second, an accountable government owes the citizen an assessment of the actual consequences of its policies. If reality turned out to be different from the plan, as will inevitably happen from time to time, an accountable government owes the citizen an explanation of what caused the variances and the corrective actions, if any, that are deemed appropriate. Governmental structures and institutional relationships differ vastly from one nation to another and particularly between parliamentary systems and presidential systems of government. Nevertheless, there is a certain conceptual commonality in the mechanisms by which these two forms of accountability are satisfied. All governments of developed nations prepare budgets and, in all democratic governments, the budget is one of the primary means by which the government publicly announces the policies it has chosen to pursue. At their heart, all budgets are financial plans for the government, describing the revenues that are to be raised and the amounts that are to be spent for various purposes and the way in which the difference, if any, is to be financed. For a budget to serve its accountability function, however, it must be more than a financial plan. In the modern era, the budgets of most developed countries have also become program policy plans, management plans and, to varying degrees, national economic plans. To say that budgets should be all these things-policy plan, management plan, financial plan and economic plan--is not to say that contemporary budgets serve all of these objectives well. In one part of this paper we will be discussing a number of ways in which budgets, particularly those of the United States, fall far short of the ideal and we will suggest steps that might be taken to correct those failings. Before turning to that issue, however, we should first introduce the other piece of our accountability model, government's responsibility for reporting after the fact what happened to its plans and why. It is commonly recognized that one aspect of accountability for any entity is to report on its financial performance. Publicly held corporations, for example, provide periodic financial reports to their shareholders. Similarly, governments usually make some form of public report of the financial results at the end of each fiscal period. In the United States, for example, Article I, section 9 of the Constitution requires that \"a regular statement and account of the receipts and expenditures of all public money shall be published from time to time.\" However, just as accountability for policies requires a budget that goes beyond a financial plan for the government, accountability after the fact should encompass more than just reporting how much public money was collected and spent. \u2026","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":150479185,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"298822927","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The roles of nuclei and air diffusion in ordinary water and the kinetic theory of liquids for pure water are considered as to their bearing on cavitation scale effects.\n\nThe attack on the problem is concentrated in three general areas. First, dynamic similarity considerations for individual bubble growth show that no useful scaling laws can be established from such arguments. Aside from changes due to Reynolds number, it is concluded that scale effects are dependent upon the time required for a nucleus to grow from its original microscopic size to a macroscopic size. Second, a series of experiments shows that the cavitation behaves in a systematic way as the scale of the immersed body is changed. In certain instances, the inception of cavitation depends on both model size and free stream velocity. Third, a theoretical study is made to gain insight into the relationships that must hold between the parameters which affect the inception of cavitation.

+{"text":"NRECA first produced Vital Signs in 1985. It is an analysis of rural electric system trends based on data reported at the end of the previous calendar year. It examines, among other things, regional and national consumer arid sales growth and cost and rate trends. The analysis is based on data reported to the Rural Utilities Service (RUS). When NRECA first produced Vital Signs, virtually all rural electric systems were RUS borrowers. Since 1987 when rural electric systems first began prepaying their federal debt, the number of systems included has decreased. This year's analysis is based on a group of 618 RUS borrowers out of the 866 total distribution systems. CONSUMER GROWTH According to data released in August by the Rural Utilities Service (RUS), co-op consumer growth continued to outpace the industry as a whole (exhibit 1) though the gap narrowed in 2001. The data, for the 618 RUS co-ops, shows that they added 200,000 new consumers (meters) during 2001. Consumer data provided by CFC for 808 distribution systems indicate that the entire Rural Electric Network added over 480,000 new customers (meters) in 2001. This means nearly 1.3 million additional persons served by rural electrics. Exhibits 2, 3 and 4 show the consumer growth patterns (all maps and graphs are based on 618 RUS co-ops for which we have received data). Areas of particularly high consumer growth are the Southeast and Rocky Mountain States. Nationally, two-thirds of the consumer growth occurred in co-ops with service territory near major suburban\/metropolitan areas. With a few exceptions (recreation\/retirement areas), there has been very low or moderate consumer growth in the Midwest and northern plains states. KWH SALES GROWTH KWh sales growth fluctuates from year to year depending on weather and economic conditions. Reflecting the slowing economy and a mild weather year, overall RUS co-op sales grew a modest 2.3% in 2001, down from the robust 6.7% increase in 2000. Maps 5, 6 and 7 show the regional variations in sales growth last year. Irrigation sales remained strong, but declined 5.9% from last year, which had produced a 25% increase over 1999. Overall, small and large C&I sales grew 3.5% and 1.7% respectively. Residential sales were up an average of 2.5% over 2000. INFLATION The rate of inflation, as measured by changes in the Consumer Price Index, has been very modest in the past 5 years, especially compared to the double-digit increases of the early 1980s. Inflation had begun to increase slightly in 1999 and 2000, but in 2001, it matched the 5-year low of 1.6%. Generally, co-op cost and rate increases during the same period have been below those of the inflation rate (exhibit 8). COSTS For many years, cost of power for distribution co-ops went down by 1 or 2% annually. However, it has remained at approximately 4.4 cents per kWh (exhibit 9) since 1998. Power costs are about two-thirds of a co-op's total costs. Distribution costs represent the other third and can be broken down into 4 categories. Capital Costs (interest, depreciation and taxes) are 36% of a co-op's total distribution costs. Overhead (A&G, customer accts and sales expenses) are 28% of distribution costs. Operation and Maintenance (O&M) costs are 26% and Margins are 10% (see pie chart - exhibit 10). Nominally (in actual dollars) distribution costs for the RUS co-ops rose over 8% from 2000 to 2001. On a per kWh basis, distribution costs reached 2.46 cents per kWh. Exhibit 11 shows the distribution cost per customer for the typical (median) RUS co-op over the last 5 years. RATES Co-op revenue per kWh rose 2.7% to 6.8 cents per kWh in 2001. Exhibit 12 shows what the current average rates are for each class of service. Average residential sales, which rose 2.5%, are almost 60% of a co-op's total sales. \u2026","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":107724855,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"234923156","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Given the knowledge of the existence of localized glitches in particular segments of data, we also develop a method to insulate statistical inference from these glitches, so as to cleanly excise them without affecting the search background in neighboring seconds. We show the importance of applying these methods on the publicly available LIGO data, and measure an increase in the detection volume of at least $15\\%$ from the PSD-drift correction alone, due to the improved background distribution.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":199668772,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2969033675","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1103\/PhysRevD.104.063034","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":"1908.05644"},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Methods: We retrospectively investigated the medical records of 162 OSA patients who had obesity [body mass index (BMI) \u2265 25] and undertaken successful CPAP titration study. We divided the data to a training set (90%) and a test set (10%), randomly. We made a random forest model and a least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (lasso) regression model to predict the optimal pressure by using the training set, and then applied our models and previous reported equations to the test set. To compare the fitness of each models, we used a correlation coefficient (CC) and a mean absolute error (MAE). Results: The random forest model showed the best performance {CC 0.78 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.43\u20130.93], MAE 1.20}.

+{"text":"In 1940, Virginia Woolf blamed the printing press for killing the oral tradition that had promoted authorial anonymity: \"Anon is dead,\" she pronounced. Scholarship on the printed word has abundantly recognized that, far from being dead, Anon remained very much alive in Britain through the end of the nineteenth century. Even in the twentieth century, Anon lived on, among particular groups and particular genres, yet little scholarship has addressed this endurance. Here, after defining anonymity and sketching its history in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, I offer three findings. First, women had less need for anonymity as they gained civil protections elsewhere, but anonymity still appealed to writers made vulnerable by their marginalized identities or risky views. Second, in the early twentieth century the genre most likely to go unsigned was autobiography, in all its forms. Third, on rare occasions, which I enumerate, strict anonymity achieves what pseudonymity cannot. I conclude by suggesting that among British modernist authors, the decline of practiced anonymity stimulated desired anonymity and the prizing of anonymity as an aesthetic ideal.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":163851131,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2472638679","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.7202\/1036861ar","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYNCND","url":"http:\/\/www.erudit.org\/fr\/revues\/memoires\/2016-v7-n2-memoires02575\/1036861ar.pdf","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Abstract The triangle palm ( Dypsis decaryi ), a species native to Madagascar, possesses various ornamental characteristics that make it highly valued in the international market. Seed propagation is the primary method for its cultivation, and this process is influenced by factors such as sowing time and salinity. In this study, we aimed to investigate the germination behavior of D. decaryi seeds under different saline concentrations of sodium chloride (NaCl) and potassium chloride (KCl), in two distinct periods. The experiment followed a completely randomized design, employing a 2 \u00d7 2 \u00d7 5 factorial arrangement corresponding to two seasons of experimentation (summer and winter), two salt types (NaCl and KCl), and four salt concentrations (25, 50, 75, and 100 mM), in addition to a control group without salt. Each treatment consisted of four replications, with 25 seeds per replication. The evaluated parameters were germination percentage, germination speed index, and mean germination time. No significant effects were observed when analyzing the salt types individually, the interaction between seasons and salts, or the interaction between all three factors. However, during the summer season, the seeds exhibited higher mean germination percentages and germination speed indices and shorter mean germination times, regardless of the salt used. A high germination percentage (73.79%) was observed at the highest salt concentration tested for both NaCl and KCl. Consequently, we conclude that D. decaryi is tolerant to salinity, as simulated by KCl and NaCl, during the seed germination process.

Exosomes are extracellular vesicles (EVs) released by all the cells; they carry a cargo of nucleic acids, proteins and lipids. In the male genital tract, they are released at various levels and their composition differs between men of proven fertility and infertile male patients. Recent studies reported the proteomic profile of exosomes, revealing the presence of several proteins with a well know role in sperm maturation and fertilizing ability acquiring.\n \n \n \n This prospective study consisted of 36 Caucasian men; according to seminal parameters (WHO 2010) they were divided in normozoospermic (N; n\u2009=\u200912), oligoasthenoteratozoospermic (OAT: n\u2009=\u200912) and azoospermic (A; n\u2009=\u200912).

Exosomes were isolated by an in-house modified ExoGAG\u00ae-polymer precipitation-based protocol and characterized for size and ultrastructure by Nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The exosomal proteins were extracted and analyzed by 2D-electrophoresis and the identified profiles were examined by applying bioinformatic tools. The expression of selected genes was evaluated by digital droplets PCR (ddPCR).\n \n \n \n The present work is readily providing an improvement of the standard ExoGAG\u00ae protocol and underlines its advantages over more conventional EVs isolation protocols used to date for recovery from seminal fluid: the number of recovered EVs and their size were finely included in the range of exosomes.\n This isolation protocol provides samples suitable for proteomic analyses, representing the first 2D-electrophoresis reference map of exosome-pay loaded proteins in N respect to OAT\/A groups and providing an innovative and comprehensive functional overview of its proteins. Moreover, the STRING protein-protein interaction analysis revealed the deregulation of specific pathways (e.g. signaling proteins, chromatin packaging and\/or remodeling, protein folding and apoptosis) in A and OAT in comparison with N group.\n Gene expression by ddPCR analysis highlighted that most of the analyzed genes are modulated in according to seminal parameters, in particular: GAPDHS (Glyceraldehyde\u20133-Phosphate Dehydrogenase, Spermatogenic); SPAM1 (Sperm Adhesion Molecule\u20131) encoding a members of hyaluronidase family; ADAM2 (ADAM Metallopeptidase Domain\u20132) that plays an important role in sperm-egg interactions; CRISP1,2,3 (Cysteine Rich Secretory Protein 1,2,3) expressed in the epididymis and secreted into the epididymal lumen; CLGN (Calmegin) encoding a testis-specific chaperone protein and PGK2 (Phosphoglycerate Kinase\u20132) expressed in the later stages of spermatogenesis.\n \n \n \n This study represents a preliminary experiment.

+{"text":"This study carried out a theoretical examination of the method of preparing very long unidirectional CNTs\/resin composites by the application of an electric field. In the simulations, a rotating cylindrical multiple electrode was used to apply an electric field to the suspension (CNTs\/uncured resin). The suspension was arranged closely under the rotating cylindrical multiple electrode, and moved slowly and perpendicularly to the axis of the rotation. The passing speed of the suspension was set to be (A) extremely slow compared with, or (B) synchronized to the circumferential speed of the rotating cylindrical multiple electrode. Condition (A) corresponds to a case in which the thinned suspension moves slowly under the rotating cylindrical multiple electrode at a high speed. In this condition, a DC voltage is applied to the electrodes. Condition (B) corresponds to the case that in which suspension is spread by the rotating cylindrical multiple electrode. In this condition, direct, four-phase square wave, six-phase square wave or eight-phase square wave voltages are applied to the electrodes in the simulation. The static electric fields in the suspension at many angles of the rotating cylindrical multiple electrode were calculated by FEM. Intensities of the obtained electric fields were assigned to the equations introduced by the author, and the CNTs alignment angle and the moment acting on the CNTs in the suspension were estimated. From the simulated results, it can be concluded that very long unidirectional CNTs\/resin composites could be prepared by the application of an electric field.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":201290011,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2964719155","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1299\/TRANSJSME.19-00193","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The particular situation where the buoyancy forces induced by the thermal and solutal effects are opposing each other and of equal intensity (N = -1) is considered for the porous case. For this situation a purely diffusive rest state is possible. The linear stability theory is used to predict analytically the critical Rayleigh number for the onset of convection. Also the linear stability of the convective motion, predicted by the parallel fow approximation, is investigated numerically in order to predict the occurrence of Hopf's bifurcation.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":92304393,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"88559133","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Despite being a promising approach, the detection of biases at the source level remains largely unexplored. In this study, we propose a novel unsupervised framework to estimate presentation bias of news sources. The framework first uses a retrieval engine to form groups of related articles, then constructs pairwise biases between news sources using Aspect-based Sentiment Analysis (ABSA) and finally, assigns bias scores for each source with a graph-based algorithm.

+{"text":"Text extraction plays an important function for data processing workflows in digital libraries. For example, it is a crucial prerequisite for evaluating the quality of migrated textual documents. Complex file formats make the extraction process error-prone and have made it very challenging to verify the correctness of extraction components. Based on digital preservation and information retrieval scenarios, three quality requirements in terms of effectiveness of text extraction tools are identified: 1) is a certain text snippet correctly extracted from a document, 2) does the extracted text appear in the right order relatively to other elements and, 3) is the structure of the text preserved. A number of text extraction tools is available fulfilling these three quality requirements to various degrees. However, systematic benchmarks to evaluate those tools are still missing, mainly due to the lack of datasets with accompanying ground truth. The contribution of this paper is two-fold.

+{"text":"A Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) is a discrete optimization problem consisting of a set of variables (which take on values in a finite domain) and a set of constraints (indicator functions defined on a subset of variables of some specified cardinality). The objective in a CSP is to assign each variable a value in the domain so that the largest number of constraints are satisfied. CSP's subsume a wide range of fundamental combinatorial optimization problems, including Max k-SAT, graph coloring (approximately defined), and Unique Games. Significant effort has been dedicated to developing approximation algorithms for CSP's. The most general of these algorithms involve solving a canonical SDP relaxation of the CSP (called \"Basic SDP\" [Rag08]) and use extremely sophisticated postprocessing of SDP vectors to determine an assignment of variables. Unfortunately, as was shown in [DMS15], these algorithms require impossibly powerful machines. In this work, we deploy approximation algorithms rooted in theory but driven by practical considerations to approximate CSP's with the machines of today and the near future.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":224895509,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"'Ali\u011dilo' and 'kotizo', two Esperanto words commonly used when concluding contracts for the organization of Esperanto events, are referred to in this article as the symbols for analysing the use of Esperanto in civil law. Considerations around the concept of the linguistic form of a legal act are conducted on two levels. The first plane addresses legal transactions between Esperantists in the Esperanto movement in terms of their admissibility and legal weight. The second plane applies to common civil-law transactions, with a special emphasis on international trade, through the prism of the admissibility, weight, and areas of use of Esperanto.\nThe author analyses the so-far merely signalling statements in the Polish civil-law doctrine concerning the legal meaning of the use of Esperanto and deepens research in this area. In this respect, the author analyses legal acts in general, limitations resulting from the application of the Polish Language Act and those legal acts that require a special form, such as last wills and testaments and bills of exchange, in terms of admissibility of expressing a statement of will in Esperanto. An important role is also played by the placement of the subject in the context of the following principles: freedom of contract and freedom of form of legal actions as well as equality of parties to legal relationships of the civil-law type. The procedural consequences of the use of Esperanto in the sphere of substantive law are also shown. In addition to evaluating numerous examples, the case of the practical application of Esperanto in law is discussed.

A range of attributes was examined on the exposed and unexposed sides of the sun fruit, and compared to shade fruit. Temperatures of 35 to 40\u00b0C were observed in the flesh of sun fruit, even in spring. At harvest, and during ripening, significant differences were found between the two fruit types, and between sides of the sun fruit. Sun fruit were found to have higher dry matter, and higher levels of potassium, calcium and magnesium. Sun fruit took longer to ripen than shade fruit, and the exposed side of sun fruit was firmer than the unexposed side. The exposed side of sun fruit was lighter in colour with a higher chroma and lower hue angle (more yellow) than the unexposed side of sun fruit and shade fruit. Sun fruit had higher oil content than shade fruit, with relatively little difference between exposed and shaded sides of sun fruit. The fatty acid composition of the total oil was determined. Sun exposure increased the proportion of the saturated fatty acid palmitic acid, and decreased the proportion of monounsaturated fatty acid oleic acid (which is the major fatty acid in avocado oil). Thus, sun exposure of 'Hass' avocados has a range of significant effects on fruit quality at harvest, and when ripe.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":59581200,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2186152822","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Congenital heart defects (CHDs) are very frequent in children with Down syndrome (DS), the genetic condition caused by trisomy of chromosome 21 (T21). Despite significant efforts, the mechanisms by which T21 causes susceptibility to CHDs remain largely unknown. Here, using a combination of a human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-based model and the Dp(16)1Yey\/+ (Dp16) mouse model of DS, we identified downregulation of canonical Wnt signaling downstream of increased dosage of interferon (IFN) receptors (IFNRs) genes on chromosome 21 as a causative factor of CHDs in DS. We differentiated human iPSCs derived from individuals with DS and CHDs (DS\/CHD iPSCs), and euploid controls into cardiac cells. We observed that T21 upregulates IFN signaling, downregulates the canonical WNT pathway, and impairs cardiac differentiation. Furthermore, genetic and pharmacological normalization of IFN signaling restored canonical WNT signaling and rescued defects in cardiac differentiation of DS\/CHD iPSCs. To define the role of IFN signaling in CHDs\n in vivo\n , we genetically and pharmacologically normalized the activity of IFN signaling in the Dp16 mouse model of DS. Normalization of the activity of IFN signaling prevented heart malformations in Dp16 embryos. In addition, treatment with an inhibitor of Janus kinases, which act downstream of IFNRs, normalized canonical Wnt signaling and ameliorated CHDs in Dp16 embryos.

+{"text":"Introduction Block copolymers undergo microphase separation in a few tens of nanometres, because of strong segregation between constituent block chains comprising different chemical species [1]. This stems in molecular origins where dimension of block chains is of tens of nanometers. Depending on composition, the morphology of the microphase-separated structures can be altered from spheres, cylinders, or gyroid to lamellae. It is well known that physical properties of block copolymers strongly depend on the morphology. Not only the morphology, but the orientation of microdomains are key factors to be taken into account in order to control materials properties more efficiently, such as imparting anisotropy of properties. To control orientation of microdomains is therefore one of the fundamental ways to novel specialty materials. Especially for cylindrical microdomains, perpendicular orientation in a film sample is attracting both academic and technological interests. However, the perpendicular orientation has been exclusively attained in a thin film (thickness less than several micometres). There is no report of perpendicular orientation of cylinders in a thick film (thickness in 0.1 ~ 1.0 mm range). Self-assembling ability of block copolymer may be applied to this problem. One of the promising strategies is a directional coalescence of spherical microdomains in the direction perpendicular to the sample film, as schematically shown in Fig. 1. In this concept, the resultant cylinders are therefore spontaneously oriented perpendicularly due to a memory of the chemical potential gradient induced by solvent evaporation. If non-equilibrium spherical microdomains, which can be obtained when a cylinder-forming block copolymer is cast from a solution in selective solvent [2], are frozen in an as-cast film due to vitrification of one or both components of block species, thermal annealing of the sample above their glass transition temperatures can induce coalescence of non-equilibrium spheres. Just the thermal annealing is very simple and convenient for the perpendicular orientation of cylinders. We show efficiency of this strategy applied to an SEBS (polystyrene-blockpolyethylenebutylene-block-polystyrene) triblock copolymer.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":3734895,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2051977023","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1088\/1757-899X\/14\/1\/012004","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Vanishing creams remain one of the most widely used cosmetics, as they provide unique sensory and tactile benefits. These include inter alia, a dry and matte end-feel, which helps to overcome the oily and shiny appearance of the skin. Vanishing creams spread easily on the skin and get rapidly absorbed therein. Moreover, use of such creams help to reduce the dryness of skin thereby alleviating flakes, cracks and roughness. Owing to their widespread use, they serve as effective vehicles for delivery of actives. Traditional vanishing creams contain high levels of fatty acid, generally stearic acid or a combination thereof with palmitic acid, typically ranging from 16 to 20 % by weight. They also contain salts of fatty acids, generally alkali metal soap, which acts as the emulsifier. However the high level of fatty acids, typically used in the formulation, poses problems with chemical and physical stability of some actives, especially acidic actives. On reducing fatty acid content, certain consumer desired sensory benefits, such as rub-in effect and the viscosity of the cream, are adversely affected. In addition to the above, it is known that in vanishing creams containing high levels of stearic acid, especially containing high levels of actives such as niacinamide, the end-feel and sensorial aspects of the cream are also adversely affected. The present inventors have found that vanishing creams containing relatively lower amounts of fatty acid can be made by including particulate matter selected from talc, starch or its derivatives, along with a relatively higher amount of fatty acid soap, without significantly affecting the above-mentioned benefits desired by the consumers.

+{"text":"Bioactive vitamin D or calcitriol is a steroid hormone that has long been known for its important role in regulating body levels of calcium and phosphorus, and in mineralization of bone. More recently, it has become clear that receptors for vitamin D are present in a wide variety of cells, and that this hormone has biologic effects which extend far beyond control of mineral metabolism. Detailed mechanistic insights have unveiled new maps of linear and integrated signal transduction cascades, but the multifaceted nature of the pathways remains unclear. The genomic action of calcitriol (1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3) is mediated through the interaction of the calcitriol receptor (VDR) with vitamin D response elements (VDREs), a phosphoprotein which binds the hormone with high affinity and regulates the expression of genes via zinc finger- mediated DNA binding and protein- protein interactions. Regulation of microRNA (miRNA) by the VDR appears to be important to mediate its actions, for example, to control cell growth.

In June 1995, Guthrie became Mellon's JSTOR coordinator with a \"mandate to bring JSTOR forward to independence.\" (p. 109) By July 31, 1995, JSTOR was incorporated as an independent notfor-profit. In subsequent chapters, we follow the progress of JSTOR to independence and the structure of a business plan that developed the model of planning for charter members, as well as the production and distribution of the new database. Many hurdles had to be overcome for which there were no earlier experiences on which to draw. The fledgling operation was in entirely virgin territory. By early 1997, 190 libraries had joined JSTOR, many more than Guthrie had hoped to sign. (p. 236\u201337) How did this happen in light of the fact that Guthrie was virtually unknown in library circles, JSTOR was an unknown product that was more a promise of content than actual content, and budgets in libraries were tighter than ever? The public relations story of the JSTOR \"branding\" told in these pages is impressive. Richard DeGennaro, emeritus director of the Harvard College Library and board member of JSTOR, stepped in personally to encourage colleagues to subscribe to JSTOR, relieving Guthrie of the initial dealing with librarians with whom he was unfamiliar. In the course of the book, you will learn answers to questions that have no doubt occurred to you more than once. How were the journals that were selected chosen? Where did the idea of the moving wall and digitizing back files come from? What agreements were made with publishers? Why was JSTOR initially reluctant to work with consortia?

Measurements are currently made on non-radioactive simulant slurries using two state-of-the-art rheometers located at the Aiken County Technical Laboratory, ACTL. Measurements are made on plant samples using a rheometer in the Savannah River National Laboratory, SRNL, Shielded Cells facility. Low activity simulants or plant samples can be analyzed using a rheometer located in a radioactive hood in SRNL. Variations in the rheology of SB2 simulants impacted the interpretation of results obtained in a number of related studies. A separate rheological study was initiated with the following four goals: (1) Document the variations seen in the simulant slurries, both by a review of recent data, and by a search for similar samples for further study. (2) Attempt to explain the variations in rheological behavior, or, failing that, reduce the number of possible causes. In particular, to empirically check for rheometer-related variations. (3) Exploit the additional capabilities of the rheometers by developing new measurement methods to study the simulant rheological properties in new ways. (4) Formalize the rheological measurement process for DWPF-related samples into a series of protocols. This report focuses on the thirdmore\u00a0\u00bb and fourth goals.

+{"text":"OBJECTIVE\nBone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP2) plays a critical role in osteoblastogenesis and adipogenesis from osteoprogenitor cells. The balance between osteogenic and adipogenic effects is influenced by BMP2 concentration, transcription factors and age. BMP2 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) may contribute to osteoporosis risk, but the relationship between adiposity and body composition has not been explored. We investigated the relationship between BMP2 polymorphisms and body composition in young and elderly women.\n\n\nDESIGN\nPopulation-based association study.\n\n\nMETHODS\nFour BMP2 SNPs studied. Total body fat and lean mass measured by DEXA in two cohorts: 'PEAK-25' women aged 25 (+\/-0.00) (n=993) and osteoporosis prospective risk assessment (OPRA) women aged 75 (+\/-0.00) years (n=1001).\n\n\nRESULTS\nWe found no association between BMP2 SNPs and fat or lean mass, however, we observed consistent although non-significant trends. Polymorphisms, rs235767 and Ser37Ala, exerted opposing effects on most parameters of soft tissue and bone mass in both cohorts. This relationship appeared to be age specific with large differences between alleles observed (fat mass; Ser37Ala: 14.3% (PEAK-25), -3.5% (OPRA)). These initial results appear to suggest that alleles exerting a beneficial effect in young women may subsequently contribute to phenotypes associated with osteoporosis risk in elderly women.\n\n\nCONCLUSIONS\nWhile further analyses in other comparative populations are necessary, in this study of almost 2000 women we observed interesting, although non-significant trends, regarding the effects of variation in the BMP2 gene on parameters of body mass. Although the exact nature of the relationship remains uncertain, we suggest that the mechanisms are influenced by age and environmental factors.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":207121112,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2099935100","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1530\/EJE-07-0757","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The framework can be used as an input to ongoing discussions regarding international comparative studies of adult competencies such as the \"Programme for an International Assessment of Adults' Competencies\" (PIAAC) currently being prepared by the OECD, and may also be used in the context of national studies in this area. Problem solving is understood as a general dimension, strongly related to and partially overlapping with general mental abilities. The problem-solving abilities focused on within this framework clearly target those aspects that are modifiable by learning.

This study aimed to compare the differences between the WHO's growth standards and China's growth standards in assessing the nutritional status of children aged 0~36 months. Methods: We used z-scores to evaluate the nutritional status of children. The weight-for-age z-scores (WAZs), length\/height-for-age z-scores (LAZ\/HAZs), and weight-for-length\/height z-scores (WLZ\/WHZs) were calculated using the WHO's growth standards and China's growth standards.

Results: The results in this study showed that there were differences between the WHO's standards and China's standards in assessing children's nutritional status except for stunting and obesity. The prevalence of underweight assessed using China's standards was higher than when using the WHO's standards (except when 3 and 36 months old). The prevalence of wasting was significantly higher when assessed using China's standards than when using the WHO's standards from 12 to 36 months. The prevalence of overweight was higher when assessed using the WHO's standards from 3 to 8 months.

The influence of both organization-specific and environmental factors on the profitability of their loan portfolios is examined. Furthermore, the capacity of those institutions to generate sufficient yields on their credit operations in order to attract rational foreign investors is rated. For this purpose, the realized credit spreads on MFI-portfolios are compared with spreads observable for exchange-traded USD-corporate bonds exhibiting equal levels of risk. The panel design and the investigation of multiple (partly qualitative) external variables influencing loan portfolio returns contribute to a comprehensive investigation of MFI-performance.

Besides, polymer materials can be, with simple methods, functionalized with nonlinear optical or fluorescent materials (organic, inorganic, or metal). The ensemble can be optically structured in a flexible way to obtain a polymer-based photonic nanostructure (host) containing active materials (guest), which may provide an enhancement of the guest optical response, leading to attractive applications. We have developed two important fabrication techniques, namely interference and one-photon absorption direct laser writing, which present different advantages and allow both to obtain desired micro and nanometric 2D and 3D structures. These polymer-based structures are promising for many potential applications, for example, laser, nonlinear optics, and plasmonics.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":120079343,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1995677277","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1117\/12.2064653","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Real-time stiffness monitoring of unbound aggregate layers using embedded field sensors is crucial for advanced airport pavement design and management. This paper describes research findings on monitoring base layer stiffness characteristics for airport pavements using an embedded bender element (BE) field sensor, inductive coil sensors, and pressure cells. A full-scale pavement test section was constructed at the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)'s National Airport Pavement Test Facility (NAPTF). A BE field sensor, inductive coil sensor pairs, and pressure cells were installed in the unbound aggregate base to evaluate the layer stiffness, applied load stress, and deformation characteristics. A triple dual tandem gear loading module applied 58,000\u2009lb per wheel to the tested section with a wander pattern consisting of 66 passes arranged in nine lateral wander positions. Dynamic responses of coil sensors and pressure cells were collected during the traffic test, whereas BE signals were collected after completing each wander pattern. Laboratory repeated load triaxial tests with BE instrumentation were also conducted to establish a correlation for converting BE field sensor readings to layer modulus properties. The in situ modulus characteristics of the aggregate base layer were evaluated during full-scale testing using two methods: shear wave velocities from a BE field sensor, and strain and stress measurements from coil sensors and pressure cells. The moduli estimated using both approaches fell into typical ranges of crushed aggregate bases and were highly comparable. The moduli from the dynamic sensor measurements clearly showed the effect of vehicle wander on aggregate base layer measured responses.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":257457501,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1177\/03611981231156938","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The framework allows the separation of fast responses that are unassociated with global-mean surface air temperature change (\u0394T), which is included in the forcing, and slow feedbacks that scale with \u0394T. The framework is illustrated primarily using 2 \u00d7 CO2 climate model experiments and is robust across the models. For CO2 increases, the positive downward radiative component of forcing is smaller at the surface than at the tropopause, and so a rapid reduction in the upward surface latent heat (LH) flux is induced to conserve the tropospheric heat budget; this reduces the precipitation rate. Analysis of the time-dependent surface energy balance over sea and land separately reveals that land areas rapidly regain energy balance, and significant land surface warming occurs before global sea temperatures respond.

It plays a crucial role in the thermodynamics of interstellar clouds, because of the gas-dust collisional coupling. It is also a key parameter in astrochemical studies that governs the rate at which molecules form on dust. In 3D (magneto)hydrodynamic simulations often a simple expression for the dust temperature is adopted, because of computational constraints, while astrochemical modelers tend to keep the dust temperature constant over a large range of parameter space. Our aim is to provide an easy-to-use parametric expression for the dust temperature as a function of visual extinction ( A V ) and to shed light on the critical dependencies of the dust temperature on the grain composition. We obtain an expression for the dust temperature by semi-analytically solving the dust thermal balance for different types of grains and compare to a collection of recent observational measurements. We also explore the effect of ices on the dust temperature. Our results show that a mixed carbonaceous-silicate type dust with a high carbon volume fraction matches the observations best.

+{"text":"Introduction: In epidemiological studies, outcomes are usually predicted using standard statistical techniques including logistic regression and Cox proportional hazard models. These models do not include information on temporal sequences of risk factors and the progression from risk factors to outcomes. Hypothesis: We hypothesize that the use of personalized disease networks (PDN) will improve the prediction of outcomes. Methods: We developed a novel method for building patient-level personalized disease networks for the prediction of cardiovascular outcomes. We built one network for each patient that reflects the sequence of occurrence of risk factors, procedures, and co-morbidities in predicting cardiovascular outcomes such as all-cause death or the development of heart failure (Figure displays a network for a given patient). The color brightness of each oval and associated number indicates the temporal order of these conditions. The network structure data were used to predict outcomes e.g. heart failure, death, etc. Results: We analyzed a dataset of 4,293 African American patients with cardiovascular disease from the Myocardial Infarction Data Acquisition database, a statewide database including all non-federal admissions for myocardial infarction in the state of New Jersey. The ability of the network in predicting all-cause mortality was much better than that of a standard Cox model (R 2 =55% vs. 20% for the standard Cox model). Conclusions: By incorporating temporal sequence information, personalized disease networks improve the prediction power for cardiovascular outcomes compared to standard statistical models.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":80571161,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2743814053","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The River Halda, known as the Bangabandhu Fisheries heritage of Bangladesh, is a famous natural breeding ground for the Indian major carps (Rui, Catla, Mrigal, and Kalibaus). It is one of the most important productive water bodies for fishes, dolphins, and other aquatic lives in Bangladesh. The water quality and productivity of any water body depend mainly on the plankton community. Phytoplankton is freefloating unicellular, filamentous and colonial autotrophic form of aquatic habitat, whose movement is more or less dependent on water currents (Millman et al., 2005). Phytoplankton is the major primary producer in many aquatic systems, forming the first trophic level in the food chain. Moreover, it serves as an important food source for other organisms and the source of oxygen in the aquatic systems (Akomeah et al., 2010; Gupta & Dey, 2012). Furthermore, it does not only serve as food for aquatic animals, but also play an important role in maintaining the biological balance and quality of the aquatic ecosystem (Pandey & Poddar, 2004; Benarjee & Narasimha, 2013). Phytoplanktons are bioindicators of water quality. It is worth noting that, some algae such as Microcystis, Anabaena, Aphanizomenon and Cylindrospermopsis produce toxins. Hence, a bloom of the above genera may cause a risky health situation (Cook et al., 2004). They can cause odor, alter the taste of water and cause discoloration or form large mats that can interfer with boating, swimming and fishing (Borgh, 2004).

+{"text":"The Metaverse accelerates the development of the meta-human industry and human-AI interactions in both traditional media outlets and online platforms. As a typical application of meta-human, artificial intelligence (AI) news anchors have been gradually utilized for program reports instead of newscasters in China. In this paper, through the lens of expectation confirmation theory, we establish a conceptual model consisting of perceived anthropomorphism (ANT), perceived intelligence (PI), perceived attractiveness (PA), perceived novelty (PN), information quality (IQ), confirmation of expectation (CE), trust (TRU), and satisfaction (SAT) to explore continuous intention (CI) of watching news reported by AI anchors among online users. By leveraging on a sample of 598 eligible questionnaires, the partial least square structural equation model is employed and the results show that the holistic continuing intention for AI news anchor is positive but not robust. Further analysis indicates that SAT, PI, and TRU can predict CI directly, meanwhile CE, ANT, and PA associate with CI through the mediation of satisfaction. In addition, trust and satisfaction serve as serial mediators between IQ and CI. There is no direct relationship between CE & CI, ANT & CI, and PN & SAT. Nevertheless, user gender and previous experience can moderate the relationships of ANT & CI and PN & SAT, respectively. It can be seen that the proposed model can explain 80.1% of the variance in CI. The implications are intended to provide references for further commercialization of AI news anchors.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":261161908,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3390\/systems11090438","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2079-8954\/11\/9\/438\/pdf?version=1692711739","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"ABSTRACT In recent years, twinned nanopillars have attracted tremendous attention for research due to their superior mechanical properties. However, most of the studies were focused on nanopillars with twin boundaries (TBs) perpendicular to loading direction. Nanopillars with TBs parallel to loading direction have received minimal interest. In this backdrop, the present study is aimed at understanding the role of axial TBs on strength and deformation behaviour of Cu nanopillars using atomistic simulations. Tensile and compression tests have been performed on nanopillars with and without TBs. Twinned nanopillars with twin boundary spacing in the range 1.6\u20135\u2009nm were considered. The results indicate that, under both tension and compression, yield strength increases with decreasing twin boundary spacing and is always higher than that of perfect nanopillars. Under compression, the deformation in perfect as well as twinned nanopillars proceeds by the slip of extended dislocations. In twinned nanopillars, an extensive cross-slip by way of Friedel-Escaig and Fleischer mechanisms has been observed in compression. On the other hand, under tensile loading, the deformation in perfect nanopillars occurs by partial slip\/twinning, while in twinned nanopillars, it proceeds by the slip of extended dislocations. This extended dislocation activity is facilitated by stair-rod formation and its dissociation on the twin boundary. Similar to compressive loading, the extended dislocations under tensile loading also exhibit cross-slip activity in twinned nanopillars. However, this cross-slip activity occurs only through Fleischer mechanism and no Friedel-Escaig mechanism of cross-slip has been observed under tensile loading.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":208527429,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2990944765","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1080\/14786435.2019.1695163","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":"1912.00688"},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/arxiv.org\/pdf\/1912.00688","status":"GREEN"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In the proposed methodology, design is carried out by first creating a schema graph, then navigating its arcs in order to derive a correct multidimensional representation. Differently from previous approaches in the literature, particular relevance is given to the problem of detecting shared hierarchies and convergence of dependencies, and of modeling many-to-many relationships.

+{"text":"Background Quad bikes are a cause of death and serious injury in Australian rural workplaces, with many incidents associated with rollovers. Since 2016, the Victorian Government has funded a rebate scheme for the farming sector to recover costs associated with fitting of a suitably designed and engineered operator protective device (OPD), or for the purchase of an approved side-by-side vehicle with rollover protection and fitted seat belts. The rebate scheme was integrated with an extensive television, print and social media campaign. Methods An evaluation of the rebate process was carried out by the Institute for Safety, Compensation and Recovery Research (ISCRR). This included an electronic survey completed by 334 farmers and qualitative interviews (n=51) to gain insights into farmer decision-making behaviour. Results This evaluation identified key factors in determining farmer decision-making in relation to the rebate scheme and were mapped against a health belief model. Barriers to uptake included the initial financial outlay (in particular with side-by-side vehicles). The financial benefit of the rebate scheme was identified as a primary cue to action and key enabler. Conclusion This study found that Victorian farmer quad bike users had a strong understanding of the dangers and risks involved in quad bike usage. Farmer perception of how these risks applied to their own setting was a major decision-making factor whether to take part in the rebate scheme.

+{"text":"The increase of vehicle in highways may cause traffic congestion as well as in the normal roadways. Predicting the traffic flow in highways especially, is demanded to solve this congestion problem. Predictions on time-series multivariate data, such as in the traffic flow dataset, have been largely accomplished through various approaches. The approach with conventional prediction algorithms, such as with Support Vector Machine (SVM), is only capable of accommodating predictions that are independent in each time unit. Hence, the sequential relationships in this time series data is hardly explored. Continuous Conditional Random Field (CCRF) is one of Probabilistic Graphical Model (PGM) algorithms which can accommodate this problem. The neighboring aspects of sequential data such as in the time series data can be expressed by CCRF so that its predictions are more reliable. In this article, a novel approach called DM-CCRF is adopted by modifying the CCRF prediction algorithm to strengthen the probability of the predictions made by the baseline regressor. The result shows that DM-CCRF is superior in performance compared to CCRF. This is validated by the error decrease of the baseline up to 9% significance. This is twice the standard CCRF performance which can only decrease baseline error by 4.582% at most.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":8516481,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2735991964","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":"1707.03110"},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Inspired by Karen Barad's work and the diverse range of contributions to this special issue, we reflect on the fragmented, multiplied and diffracted sense of communication that has emerged in recent years. We examine this emergent form of communication through three interlinking yet distinct areas of study: \"affective communication\", \"tourism media interface\", and \"interface of the human and nonhuman\". Providing grounded empirical research alongside unique theoretical insights, the eight articles bring together a diverse and complex range of contexts that would otherwise not enter into conversation with one another. And yet in their own ways each contribution challenges how communication has been approached and perceived in specific tourism settings and opens up spaces for understanding communication as diffraction and differentiation rather than a coming-together. By revisiting communication in this way, previous relationships embedded in tourism can be seen in new and interesting ways. The introduction to this special issue offers an initial exploratory conceptual framing of what we call the interface of culture and communication in effort to forefront new ways of thinking and engaging with culture and communication in tourism studies and beyond.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":240801346,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3727\/109830421x16296375579543","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

This methodology permits to screen cells in flow and capture multi-component images. Using this technology autophagic flux may be analysed accurately in both suspension as well as adherent cells upon trypsinization independent of how heterogeneous the LC3 punctae content might be. The method is based on the fact that intra-cellularly expressed LC3-GFP serves as a potential autophagic substrate for degradation. Therefore changes in total intracellular LC3-GFP fluorescence intensity is used as an indicator of cellular autophagic activity in living cells. Increased autophagic flux is expected to result in a progressive delivery of LC3GFP to autolysosome where this substrate undergoes degradation. Therefore, enhanced autophagic flux is detected as a decreased total cellular GFP signal.

Here, we describe the first case of melanocytic nevus with FSCH adjacent to basal cell carcinoma (BCC). An 80-year-old Japanese man presented with a black tumor 32 \u00d7 24 mm in size with ulceration and an adjacent skin-colored 10-mm nodule on the forehead (Figure 1a). Dermoscopic examination of the black tumor revealed large blue-gray ovoid nests, arborizing vessels, and ulcers (Figure 1b). The skin-colored nodule showed a pigment network, comma-like vessels, multiple oval to round yellowish-white structureless areas, and whitish-yellow clods at the center (Figure 1c). Based on the dermoscopic findings, the collision of BCC and sebaceous tumor was suspected; the lesion was excised with a 3-mm margin. Histopathologically, basophilic tumor nests composed of basaloid cells showed peripheral palisading and clefts between the surrounding stroma and dilated vessels in the upper dermis (Figure 1d, e). The adjacent nodule was composed of follicular structures with sebaceous lobules, melanocytic nevus cells, and adipose cells (Figure 1f, g). The basal layer of the overlying epidermis had hyperpigmentation (Figure 1h). Each follicular structure was attached to numerous sebaceous lobules via sebaceous ducts (Figure 1i); it comprised a fibroepithelial unit surrounded by laminated fibrous tissue. There were clefts between the fibroepithelial units with circumjacent stroma (Figure 1j). Accordingly, we diagnosed the lesion as a collision tumor of BCC and Mieschertype intradermal melanocytic nevus with FSCH features. The black tumor was clinically, dermoscopically, and histopathologically typical for BCC; however, the collision nodule exhibited a diagnostic challenge. Dermoscopic differential diagnoses of the nodule were sebaceous hyperplasia and sebaceous tumor owing to yellowish-white color and melanocytic nevus owing to comma vessels and pigment network. There have been only a few reports on the dermoscopic presentation of FSCH.3,4 In the present case, the dermoscopic features of FSCH can be interpreted as follows: (a) multiple yellowish-white oval to round structureless areas representing increased dermal sebaceous glands and (b) whitish-yellow clods at the center representing a dilated follicular infundibulum. The histopathological characteristics of FSCH include \"an infundibular cystic structure to which sebaceous lobules are attached via sebaceous ducts.\"2 Although an obvious cystic structure was absent in the present case, we considered this lesion as FSCH because of dilated follicles attached by numerous sebaceous lobules. Although there have been only two reports of the coexistence of Miescher-type melanocytic nevi and FSCH,2,5 such finding may not be really rare in clinical practice by close histopathological observation. Meanwhile, our case is unique in that one lesion consisted of three components: melanocytic nevus, FSCH, and BCC. Furthermore, dermoscopic features reflected histopathological findings of each part, and skin-colored nodule presented as sebaceous tumor due to abundant sebaceous lobules and scarce pigmentation. When observing by dermoscopy, we should always consider the possibility that the lesion is composed of two or more different diseases.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":229722038,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3117953581","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1111\/1346-8138.15744","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The product acceptance determination problem is formulated as a nonlinear optimization problem where the objective function is to minimise the average sample number required for inspection, and the constraints are set by satisfying the acceptable quality level, limiting quality level, producer's risk and consumer's risk in the contract. The proposed lot sentencing approach's behaviour is examined and discussed. The results indicate that the performance of the proposed variables RGS plan is better than that of a conventional variables single sampling plan in terms of the required sample size for inspection.

+{"text":"Phosphoric acid has received the most attention as a choice of electrolyte for a high-temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cell (HT-PEMFC). Phosphoric acid has many attractive properties such as high anhydrous conductivity, good compatibility with hydrocarbon membranes, and thermal stability [1], which enables high fuel cell performance under anhydrous and elevated operating temperatures (140-180 oC) [2-3]. However, phosphoric acid has undesirable properties such as high catalyst poisoning, high evaporation rate at > 200 oC, and low acid retention from the doped membrane. Alkyl phosphonic acid may correct some of the drawbacks of phosphoric acid, improving fuel cell performance and durability.\n In this presentation, we report the technical challenges and possible resolutions for HT-PEMFCs using alkyl phosphonic acid doped membranes. We focus on the effects of alkyl phosphonic acid on hydrogen oxidation and oxygen reduction reactions of Pt-based catalysts. In addition, we discuss the membrane selection of robust operation of alkyl phosphonic acid-based HT-PEMFC.\n \n References:\n \n [1] A.S. Lee, Y.-K. Choe, I. Matanovic, Y.S.

Currently, no available drugs efficiently target AR\u2010V7 in clinical practice. The DNA binding domain (DBD) is indispensable for the transcriptional activity of AR full length and AR splice variants, including AR\u2010V7. Based on the homodimerization structure of the AR DBD, a novel peptide\u2010based proteolysis\u2010targeting chimera (PROTAC) drug is designed to induce AR and AR\u2010V7 degradation in a DBD and MDM2\u2010dependent manner, without showing any activity on other hormone receptors. To overcome the short half\u2010life and poor cell penetrability of peptide PROTAC drugs, an ultrasmall gold (Au)\u2010peptide complex platform to deliver the AR DBD PROTAC in vivo is developed. The obtained Au\u2010AR pep\u2010PROTAC effectively degrades AR and AR\u2010V7 in prostate cancer cell lines, particularly in CWR22Rv1 cells with DC50 values 48.8 and 79.2 nM, respectively.

A string of three vehicles is considered where each vehicle is using the vehicle in the front as a reference point. The coupled motion stability of the formation is analyzed by linearization. It is shown that under the assumed dynamics, guidance, and control laws, the stability properties of the system decoupled into individual vehicles. This makes it possible to obtain exact analytical results that can be used in design.

+{"text":"Four thousand nine hundred physicians in four states, representing 4.8% of the population of the United States, were surveyed in order to assess the frequency and types of complications that occurred during 1963 in association with smallpox vaccination. Four hundred ninety-one physicians initially reported observing 810 complications during this year. On follow-up of these cases, many were not actually complications or were complications that occurred in a year other than 1963.\n Accidental infection was the most common complication. Generalized vaccinia and eczema vaccinatum occurred at a frequency of 238 and 80, respectively, per million primary vaccinations. Severe complications were infrequent. No deaths and only one case each of post-vaccinal encephalitis and vaccinia necrosum were detected. The high frequency of many preventable complications and the disproportionate frequency of complications in infants suggest that morbidity and mortality now associated with smallpox vaccination could be significantly reduced if primary vaccination could be deferred until after the first year of life and if more care were taken to detect individuals in whom complications can be expected to occur.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":245211159,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1542\/peds.39.6.916","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Background The Koshino (KI) and Caton-Deschamps (CDI) indices are used to measure patellar height in children, with the CDI showing excellent reliability in typically developing (TD) children. Reliability of such measures in children with cerebral palsy (CP) and spina bifida (SB) is unknown. Methods Lateral knee radiographs were reviewed retrospectively for children with TD (n = 49), CP (n = 48) and SB (n = 42). Five raters took measurements from radiographs twice, at least two weeks apart. Measurements included the CDI, Insall-Salvati Index (ISI) and KI. Systematic variability (bias) and random variability were examined using repeated measures ANOVA, 95% limits of agreement (LOA) and coefficients of variation (CV). Results Mean values of all three indices differed among raters (p < 0.0001). A significant difference was seen between the first and second measurements for CDI and KI indicating a learning effect. LOA ranges were large for the CDI (intra-rater: 0.37-0.95, inter-rater: 0.60-1.04) and ISI (intra-rater: 0.25-0.49, inter-rater: 0.51-0.57) for all patient groups. The KI showed a clinically acceptable range for TD participants (intra-rater: 0.14-0.16, inter-rater: 0.11-0.14) with larger ranges for CP (intra-rater: 0.26-0.33, inter-rater 0.0.2-0.35) and SB patients (intra-rater: 0.23-0.27, inter-rater: 0.19-0.25). CVs were lowest (best) for KI (3.8% to 7.4%) and highest (worst) for CDI (14.7% to 23.1%) for all three groups. Results were similar for patients with both open and closed physes. Conclusions The KI is the most reliable patellar height measure for paediatric patients with TD, CP and SB, with either open or closed physes. The KI is more complex and experience may be important for valid, reliable measurement.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":5181499,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2734985971","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1302\/1863-2548.11.170014","PubMedCentral":"5584492","ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYNC","url":"https:\/\/online.boneandjoint.org.uk\/doi\/pdf\/10.1302\/1863-2548.11.170014","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The indoor localisation problem is more complex than just finding whereabouts of users. Finding positions of users relative to the devices of a smart space is even more important. Unfortunately, configuring such systems manually is a tedious process, requires expert knowledge, and is sensitive to changes in the environment. Moreover, many existing solutions do not take user privacy into account. We propose a new system, called Simultaneous Localisation and Configuration (SLAC), to address the problem of locating devices and users relative to those devices, and combine this problem into a single estimation problem. The SLAC algorithm, based on FastSLAM, is able to locate devices using the received signal strength indicator (RSSI) of devices and motion data from users. Simulations have been used to show the performance in a controlled environment and the effect of the amount of RSSI updates on the localisation error. Live tests in non-trivial environments showed that we can achieve room level accuracy and that the localisation can be performed in real time. This is all done locally, i.e. running on a user's device, with respect for privacy and without using any prior information of the environment or device locations. Although promising, more work is required to increase accuracy in larger environments and to make the algorithm more robust for environment noise caused by walls and other objects. Existing techniques, e.g. map fusing, can alleviate these problems.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":35467223,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2396182602","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/IoTDI.2015.19","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Aim and Objectives: The aim and objective of the study are to evaluate outcome (mortality) of HD patients who got admitted with COVID-19 pneumonia. Various parameters such as oxygen support on admission, computed tomography (CT) severity score, inflammatory markers, and National Early Warning Score 2 (NEWS 2) were compared with mortality. Number of missed dialysis sessions before admission were evaluated and compared with mortality. Materials and Methods: During second wave (March\u2013May 2021), we had single machine dedicated for chronic kidney disease patients suffering from COVID-19 pneumonia which were referred in high numbers from surrounding talukas. This was retrospective observational study, where we have analyzed reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction-positive COVID-19 HD patients who got admitted in wards or intensive care unit and underwent HD during this second wave. Patients were analyzed for in-hospital mortality during their stay which was on an average for 10 days. Results: We had performed around 66 HD in 36 patients who consist of 25 male (70%) and 11 female (30%) patients. Out of 36 patients, 20 patients missed their scheduled dialysis before admission, average number of missed HD sessions \u20130.75, and average number of missed HD sessions in patients who expired 1.07. Ten patients of 14 patients who expired during hospitalization missed their scheduled HD. On admission, average oxygen saturation (SpO2) was 88.5%. SpO2 was <90% in 14 patients (40%), 90%\u201395% in 11 patients (30%), and >95% in 11 patients (30%). CT chest was done in 14 patients out of 36 and CT severity score was calculated. One patient had score <8, nine patients had score between 8 and 15, and four patients had score more than 15. 14\/36 (38.8%) patients expired during this period. Higher the oxygen requirement, CT score, and NEWS 2 score, poorer was the outcome of patient (P = 0.025, P = 0.031 and P < 0.05, respectively). Conclusion: COVID-19 second wave has caused high mortality in HD patients. Missing dialysis sessions may have contributed for worsening condition in these patients.

+{"text":"125 Just recently the concept of LivingLabs has received major attention from the EU. On November 20th, 2006, the Finnish EU presidency launched the 'European Network of LivingLabs', which is a first step towards a new European Innovation Infrastructure that will be backed by the upcoming 7th Framework Program. Why are the LivingLabs so important for the European Innovation System and what role can be played in this context by regional initiatives? P. Makopoulos and G.W.M. Rauterberg (Technical University of Eindhoven, Netherlands) published a white paper in 2000 (\"LivingLab: A White Paper\", IPO Annual Progress Report 35) in which they defined a LivingLab as \"a planned infrastructure that will provide an experimental platform for future home-related technologies\". It is very important to stress that a LivingLab is NOT a showcase environment where new technologies are being demonstrated. Instead it is a real life (or at least close to real life) situation where real people in their respective roles (citizens, employees, customers, patients and so on) can make use of new technologies and applications within their \"natural environment\" while being closely observed by a professional scientific community. It is obvious that the best results can be achieved if the participants in such a LivingLab can stay within their \"usual\" environment (homes, hospitals, offices, leisure clubs, etc.) with the new technologies and applications being introduced into their daily lives. If people are transferred to completely artificial environments (such as conventional labs, Focus Groups, etc.) the results are clearly less significant in comparison to the seamless introduction of new technologies and applications into daily lives. It is also obvious that this type of experimenting and observation creates new challenges for the scientific community. Privacy and Data Security, for instance, are key issues for LivingLabs, especially in public infrastructures such as schools, hospitals or residential homes for elderly people. It is also evident that LivingLabs are not limited to technological aspects. The human interaction, user acceptance and personal attitudes of the real-life participants suggest the possible additional involvement of social and cultural sciences. Cooperation between technical and 'Soft' Science therefore becomes more and more important as well. The setting up of LivingLabs in a near-to-real-life environment will definitely be a substantial competitive advantage in the building of the 'systems of the future'. As an example for possible cross border co-operation in the setup of a LivingLab we want to focus on one recently announced initiative in Austria (though it is definitely not the only one). In August 2006, the city of Schwechat committed itself to become part of the international LivingLab community. The whole initiative is based on the concept of a \"knowledge city\" (Francisco Javier Carillo (Ed.): Knowledge Cities: Approaches, Experiences and Perspectives, Elsevier 2005) and considers the citizens of Schwechat as \"research citizens\"! Schwechat, a town of some 16,000 inhabitants, is situated directly east of Vienna, adjoining the Austrian capital and within its conurbation. Vienna International Airport, the hub for Central and Eastern Europe, is located on Schwechat's territory. The community also hosts a large logistic station for the Austrian \u00d6BB railway company, as well as the most modern section of Austria's motorways. The impressively large Danube harbour of Vienna is also very close by, though not actually in its territory. Further on is Austria's main production centre of the OMV oil and gasoline refraction company, a large Borealis chemical plant and the Brau Union brewery, all of which form Schwechat's major economic facilities. Due to this strong industrial and logistic infrastructure, the community offers more working places (~18.000) than it has inhabitants, which represents a unique profile in Austria. As long as privacy issues are being appropriately handled and the citizens involved are authorizing the city Schwechat is ready to offer its public institutions (public offices, schools, residential homes, etc.) as partners for LivingLab situations. The integration of the Schwechat airport is also of eLivingLabs in a Cross Border Environment with the Austrian eSchwechat Initiative as an Example","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":155617611,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2201498392","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"For every maternal death, an additional 20\u201030 women develop serious pregnancy-related complications. Among all maternal morbidities, obstetric fi stula is one of the most devastating. It is caused by injury during childbirth, resulting in an abnormal opening between the vagina and the bladder (vesicovaginal fi stula) or rectum (rectovaginal fi stula), leading to continuous urinary or fecal incontinence. Obstructed labour is the most common cause of vesicovaginal fi stula in lowincome countries. 1 Worldwide, an estimated 2\u20103 million women have obstetric fi stula, 1 almost exclusively in sub-Saharan Africa and south Asia. However, this is a rough estimate and few data exist about the epidemiology of obstetric fi stula. In The Lancet Global Health, Mathieu Maheu-Giroux and colleagues 2 estimate lifetime and point prevalence of vesicovaginal fi stula in 19 sub-Saharan African countries. This paper is the fi rst to estimate the prevalence of vaginal fi stula (both obstetric and from other causes) based on populationlevel data from a large number of countries, using nationally representative surveys. The two most common sources of data for obstetric fi stula are medical records and self-reported surveys. Medical records grossly underestimate the prevalence and incidence of obstetric fi stula, as a result of the population aff ected by fi stula and their limited access to medical care. Conversely, self-reported data from surveys, such as those used by MaheuGiroux and colleagues, have low diagnostic value for maternal complications. Furthermore, MaheuGiroux and colleagues 2 limited their sample to women aged 15\u201049 years who were available for household interviews; institutionalised women at rehabilitation centres, women at facilities undergoing or awaiting surgical treatments, and women older than 49 years with fi stula were not accounted for.

+{"text":"Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) is a multisystem disorder involving retina, kidney, limbs, and nervous system. Additional features associated with BBS include dental anomalies, cardiovascular defects, hearing loss, and speech impairment (Beales et al. 1999; Ullah et al. 2017). Diagnosis of BBS is based on the presence of four out of six primary or three primary and two secondary phenotypes. Variation in the phenotypes within and among different families has been reported (Beales et al. 1999; Khan et al. 2016). So far, mutations have been reported in 21 disease-causing genes (BBS1\u201321) (Heon et al. 2016; Suspitsin and Imyanitov, 2016). BBS segregates in autosomal recessive manner. In rare cases, triallelic nature of BBS involving three mutated alleles in two genes has been reported as well. Genes causing BBS phenotypes play important roles in ciliogenesis. Defects in the formation or function of cilia result in syndromic form of BBS. Cilia are cell surface structures involved in cell locomotion, signaling, and chemo\/mechano\/photo-sensation. Due to localization of cilia in different organs including kidney, liver, pancreas, odontoblasts, retinal photoreceptors, and hypothalamic neurons, ciliary defects cause multisystem disorders. Three BBS proteins including BB6\/MKKS, BBS10, and BBS12 form chaperonin complex required for BBsome formation. BBsome is composed of eight BBS proteins including BBS1, BBS2, BBS4, BBS5, BBS7, BBS8, BBS9, and BBIP10\/BBS18. Chaperonin binds to BBS7 and stabilizes it and then interacts with BBS2 and BBS9 to form core of BBsome. Other members bind to BBsome core in order of BBS1, BBS5, BBS8, BBS4, and BBIP10 (Loktev et al. 2008). BBsome participates in the cilia formation. The present study was conducted with the permission of institutional review board of Qauid-i-Azam University Islamabad, Pakistan. Clinical features of affected individuals are presented in Figure 1. Affected members in the two families (A and B) showed previously reported primary features of BBS, which included polydactyly, learning difficulties, retinitis pigmentosa, truncal obesity, and hypogonadism (Khan et al. 2016). In addition, a male affected member of family A showed sparse hairs on scalp and face, and a rare secondary feature of dental anomalies. In the same family, one of the affected members (V-5) had polydactyly in both hands and feet, while the second affected member (V-6) showed this feature only in the right foot. Affected members of family B showed clinodactyly of toes as a secondary feature of BBS (Table S1, Supporting information). DNA from blood was extracted using Sigma GenElute Blood Genomic DNA kit (Sigma Aldrich, St Louis, MO, USA). Homozygosity mapping was performed by genotyping highly polymorphic microsatellite markers which were mapped previously in vicinity of the BBS genes (BBS1\u201321) ( Fig. S1). This was followed by Sanger sequencing using standard procedure (Ullah et al. 2015), which revealed two novel variants including c.775775delA in family A and c.287C>T in family B in the MKKS. Mutation effect prediction tools (MutationTaster, SIFT, and Polyphen2) predicted the two novel variants to be deleterious and disease-causing (Table S2). Previously, the MKKS was mapped on chromosome 20p12.2. The gene encodes 570-amino acid long BBS6 protein. It contains three domains including equatorial, intermediate, and apical. The equatorial domain is connected to apical domain by intermediate domain through flexible hinges. The variant (p.Thr259Leufs*21) in MKKS\/BBS6, found in family A, is located in the apical domain which is involved in substrate binding. The other variant (p. Ala96Val), found in family B, is located in the most conserved equatorial domain and is highly likely to disrupt its ATPase activity. The BBS6 is a member of chaperonin family, which is involved in the formation of BBsome complex. It is highly likely that sequence variants in the BBS6 would disrupt formation of such a complex leading to buckle cilia formation. We have observed variation in the phenotypes not only in the two families, but also among patients of the same family (Table S1). Position and nature of mutation alter the structure and function of protein differentially. Genetic background and extent of change in the structure and function of protein might be responsible for the intraand inter-familial variability of phenotypes. In conclusion, we have identified two novel sequence variants in the BBS6 causing BBS phenotypes in two different consanguineous families. This study not only supports the previously reported findings of intraand inter-familial variations in features of BBS families, but also further extend spectrum of the mutations in the MKKS gene. This study will support genetic testing of BBS patients in Pakistan.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":20818489,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2771164400","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1111\/cga.12264","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdfdirect\/10.1111\/cga.12264","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The increasing interest in the integration of Mixed Criticality Systems (MCS) in Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) platforms leads to an increasing number of challenges. The possibility of sharing computing resources among applications with different time criticalities is a key goal for COTS systems, but still hard to achieve. Classical approaches in real-time systems are not feasible when platform and operating system may introduce unpredictability in the task execution. Moreover, if the system must also meet non-functional requirements (e.g., thermal and power management), dynamic approaches of computing resources allocation are more effective than static ones. Unfortunately, this contributes to increasing the complexity of the scenario. In MCS, the overheads and the unpredictability caused by sharing resources like cache memories have been well studied. However, in some cases we could also consider the operating system itself as a potential source of unexpected and unpredictable latencies, if several running tasks perform system calls. This work aims at proposing a model for the intra-core and inter-core interferences and the analysis of the OS-induced latencies in a Linux real-time system, both essential for the creation of smart and effective run-time resource management policies.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":23574639,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2757904131","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/DSD.2017.18","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

It has crossed a whole series phases where the Engineers in different ages have learned about its behavior under different conditions and the parameter those are responsible and controller of the same. With the passage of time, the experimental analysis enabled us to reach to the micro structure in depth and decipher some of the critical parameters like micro pores, particle size distribution, Transition zone and its significance and the \"particle packing\", which has enhanced understanding of the concept of Concrete Mix Design and enabled us to design High Strength High Performance Concrete. The Article Deals with the concept of application of Particle packing theory Ultra High Strength Concrete Mix Design, where cement alone cannot contribute in the Compressive Strength of the Concrete by way of bond as the transition zone tend to fail much before arrival to the targeted strength and moreover, not all cement is often used in the hydration, owing to very low Water to Cement Ratio which may be of the order of 0.15 to 0.18 and many particles remained unhydrated or partially hydrated and they contribute in particle packing alone. The \"particle packing\" is the second parameter which is contributor in the strength of the concrete and is a function of the overall PSD, better is the PSD, better shall be packing and more will be the energy needed to break it. In this article the due consideration has been on using postulates of the particle packing and developing a mix design for UHSC.

+{"text":"Simple Summary Blissidae is a group with high species richness in Lygaeoidea, and most of them live in the leaf sheaths of Poaceae plants. Here, 10 new mitogenomes from 10 species of eight genera from Blissidae were sequenced and analyzed. Gene rearrangement is only found in Pirkimeru japonicus (PiGXBS1), which is formed as the duplication of tRNA-H. Coupled with published data, phylogenetic analyses and divergence time were performed in Blissidae. The divergence within Blissidae began about 56 million years ago (Ma), in which the genus level divergence was concentrated at 30\u201351 Ma, slightly later than the diversification of Poaceae. The consistency of the divergence time between Blissidae and Poaceae might hint at the coevolutionary relationship between them. Our study provides a valuable resource for understanding insect\u2013host relationships. Abstract Blissidae (the Chinch bug) is a group with high species richness in Lygaeoidea, but there are only a few descriptions of mitochondrial genomes available. We obtained mitogenomes from 10 species of eight genera from Blissidae through second-generation sequencing technology. The length of the mitochondrial genome (excluding the control region) is between 14643 and 14385 bp; the content of AT is between 74.1% and 77.9%. The sequence of the evolution rate of protein coding genes was as follows: ND5 > ATP8 > ND6 > ND2 > ND4 > ND4L > ND1 > ATP6 > ND3 > COIII > COII > CYTB > COI. The mitogenomic structure of Blissidae is highly conservative. Gene rearrangement is only found in Pirkimeru japonicus (PiGXBS1), which is formed as the duplication of tRNA-H. The intergenic spacer between ND4 and tRNA-H, which form an obvious stem-and-loop structure, was found in all samples in this study. The phylogenetic trees generated by BI and ML indicated that Blissidae can be divided into three major clades: Clade A (only included Macropes); Clade B ((Pirkimerus + Bochrus) + Iphicrates); and Clade C ((Ischnodemus + Capodemus) + (Cavelerius + Dimorphopterus)). The divergence within the Blissidae began at about 56 Ma. At the genus level, the divergence was concentrated at 30\u201351 Ma, slightly later than the diversification of Poaceae. The consistency of divergence time between Blissidae and Poaceae might hint at the coevolutionary relationship between them, but further molecular and biological evidence is still needed to prove it.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":250656787,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3390\/insects13070643","PubMedCentral":"9315831","ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2075-4450\/13\/7\/643\/pdf?version=1658224756","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Soft clay is associated with a soft consistency and poor shear strength. High percentage fines lead to higher liquid limit and lower plasticity index. Low bearing capacity and excessive settlement lead to uneconomic engineering structure constructed over it. There is a serious need to mitigate this problem and hence soil stabilization is the need of the hour. In the present study, Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GBFS) which is an industrial waste\/by-product of steel industry is used as a stabilizer to improve the geotechnical property of the soft clay. Soft clay is replaced by granulated blast furnace slag in various percentages by weight (10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50%) and examined for its plasticity, compaction and strength properties of the mix. From the experimental investigation, it is shown that the plasticity index decreases and unconfined compressive strength (UCS) increases upon addition of slag to the soil. With the curing age, UCS value increased indicating the chemical reaction between free lime and soil. 40% slag replacing the soft clay is recommended as stabilizer as it gave the maximum increase in UCS value compared to the rest mix. Based on the laboratory work, it can be concluded that granulated blast furnace slag can be used as a potential stabilizer for soft clay and also largely solves the problem of disposal of slag.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":210233092,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2983783410","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1088\/1757-899X\/561\/1\/012047","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"This paper proposes a number of studies in order to move recommender systems beyond the traditional paradigm and the classical perspective of rating prediction accuracy. We contribute to existing helpful but less explored recommendation strategies and also propose new approaches aiming at more useful recommendations for both users and businesses. Working toward this direction, we discuss the studies we have conducted so far and present our future research plans. The overall goal of this research program is to move our focus from even more accurate rating predictions and aims at oering a holistic experience to the users by avoiding the over-specialization and concentration problems and providing the users with non-obvious but high quality personalized recommendations that they will remarkably like. In particular, we propose a concept of unexpectedness and specic metrics to measure both unexpectedness and quality of recommendations, as well as dierent algorithms for generating such recommendations. Then, we introduce a method for generating recommendations, which the users will remarkably like, based on recommendation opportunities using higher weighted percentiles. Finally, we study the satisfaction of students with Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) vis- a-vis student retention in order to test the aforementioned approaches on generating utility-based recommendations for online courses that better serve the educational needs of students. Apart from MOOCs, we would like to implement and evaluate the proposed approaches also in a traditional online retail setting. As part of the future work, we would also like to generalize the proposed recommender system algorithms to the domains of personalization, web search, and data mining, using the ensemble learning and exploration\/exploitation frameworks, as well as to design online randomized experiments and bucket tests with real users.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":63723798,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2558134568","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Simple dimensional analysis of the experimental and numerical results showed that the flow characteristics were unique functions of the jet to column diameter ratio and were independent of the jet Reynolds number. Computational fluid dynamics modelling of the flow system was carried out to support the experimental data and to gain further insight into the flow patterns. The radial expansion of the jet, predicted by numerical simulation, showed that the initial expansion of the jet was almost linear and could be approximately modelled as a free jet. The velocity profile was close to Gaussian and was self-preserving throughout the recirculating region.

+{"text":"Most of the diseases are multifactorial in nature. Moreover, the exploration of new drugs with appropriate absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion along with effective pharmacological activity and less toxicity for the treatment and cure of multifactorial diseases is a herculean task. There is new hope for the treatment of multifactorial diseases like cancer in recent years with the advent of Molecular hybridization. It is one of the approaches in the molecular modification of drug designing which involves the refinement of molecules. Chemists had learned well from nature about the significance of small changes in structures of drugs and its effect on biological activity. Molecular modification by nature has been going on since the beginning of life. Molecular hybridization is based on the combination of pharmacophores of different bioactive substances to produce a hybrid compound with improved affinity and efficacy when compared to the parent drugs. This strategy results in compounds with a modified selectivity profile, with different and\/or dual modes of action and reduced undesired side effects. This technique focuses on the modulation of the pharmacophores giving rise to innovative hybrids. Molecular hybridization is a cropping up approach in drug discovery and development of medicinal chemistry during the latest years. The review article presents insights into the concept of molecular hybridization in designing better drugs.

It is also defined as a combination of Pharmacophores of two or more than different bioactive substances of natural or synthetic origin to produce a hybrid compound with improved affinity and efficacy when compared to the parent drugs. It is abbreviated as MH. It is also called as Hybrid drug design, covalent bi-therapy, Molecular amalgamation, Molecular crossing, Molecular fusion, Molecular association, etc. It is a multitargeted drug design. Molecular hybrids are the products of molecular hybridization. Hybrid compounds can be defined as chemical entities with two or more structural moieties with different biological functions. Molecular hybrids are also called as multi-target directed compounds, multi-functional compounds, dual-acting compounds, me-better drugs, multiple ligands combi molecules, double-drugs, combinational drugs, dual -drugs multiple-drugs, bifunctional drugs, bivalent ligands, drugs with two heads, etc. [3-6]. Hybrid compounds can be constructed by linking Pharmacophores subunits directly or indirectly using linkers or spacers in molecular hybridization. The concept of molecular hybridization was first introduced by Nicki in the year 1886. The term molecular hybridization was proposed by Morphy et al. Phenolic esters of carboxylic acids are the first molecular hybrids synthesized by Nicki by the esterification reaction of carboxylic acids using phenols. In the designing of new drugs, the concept of molecular hybridization is an attractive strategy. It is a useful tool in the design of new drug prototypes. These merged Pharmacophores addresses the active site of different target and offer the possibility of overcoming drug resistance. It is a new concept in drug designing and drug development. The hybridization process is closely related to the strategy of obtaining a mutual pro-drug, with the main difference being that the pro-drug action is dependent on its in vivo cleavage while hybrid compounds can also act \"per se\" at their specific receptors or targets Molecular modification is a structural modification strategy useful in the design of new optimized ligands and prototypes with new molecular architectures composed of two or more known bioactive derivatives, through the adequate fusion of these sub-unities. The molecular hybridization can be useful to improve the main unsuccessful causes of fail in drug discovery such as lack of efficacy and poor safety. It is a pharmaco-modulation focused on new innovative hybrid compounds. It is an extension of the concept of a fixed-dose combination of two or more drugs in a single tablet.

Most conjugates comprise of a metabolically stable linker. Cleavable conjugates are the molecular hybrids with a linker designed to be metabolized to release the two drugs that interact independently with each target. Fused hybrids are the non-super posed molecular hybrids with the decreased size of the linker such that the scaffold of the pharmacophores just touches each other.

It is evident that the future is optimistic and that this type of design will lead to important drugs with higher activity, better selectivity, and lower toxicity than the traditional combination therapies.

Subconfluent NRK cells accumulated significantly more ventral undersurface\u2010associated p52(PAI\u20101) compared to newly confluent or 1 \u2010 to 2\u2010day postconfluent cultures, suggesting that p52(PAI\u20101) expression was also growth state\u2010modulated. Since cytoarchitectural constraints function in cell growth control, changes in p52(PAI\u20101) synthesis were assessed with respect to defined morphologic events that accompany growth activation of cultured NRK cells. Stimulation of low population density, quiescent NRK cells with 20% serum\u2010containing medium resulted in a rapid increase in matrix p52(PAI\u20101) protein content (6\u2010 and 26\u2010fold after 1 and 5 hr, respectively). Growth activation in response to serum reflected elevations in p52(PAI\u20101) cytoplasmic mRNA abundance, which peaked at 2 hr (125\u2010fold increase) and subsequently declined (100\u2010fold increase) at 5 hr poststimulation. Morphologic analysis indicated that quiescent NRK cells were devoid of transcytoplasmic actin filaments and focal contact\u2010associated vinculin. A marked increase in the fraction of cells that eleborated transcytoplasmic microfilaments and vinculin\u2010containing focal adhesions was evident within 5 min of serum addition. Such cytoarchitectural restructuring preceded p52(PAI\u20101) induction. Morphologic reorganization and p52(PAI\u20101) induction occurred prior to progression of cells through the S\u2010phase, indicating they are early events associated with serum stimulation in the NRK cell system. The relevance of p52(PAI\u20101) induction during this growth state transition is not clear but may influence the established cytoarchitectural changes observed prior to p52(PAI\u20101) induction by regulating pericellular proteolysis and, thereby, cell\u2010to\u2010substrate adhesion. \u00a9 1993 Wiley\u2010Liss, Inc.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":43460484,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2070258719","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1002\/jcp.1041550219","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"projects and mainly involves comminution, sizing, concentration, extractive metallurgical processes, and dewatering. Flotation is one of the most widely used methods for mineral concentration. Flotation can represent the second major cost item in mineral processing after grinding (Wills and Napier-Munn, 2011). Accordingly, it is a main concern of mining project managers to select and optimize flotation circuits in order to decrease costs and increase productivity. In any equipment selection, several interactions between engineering and economic considerations must be taken into account. Consequently, an accurate and easy cost model to select the most appropriate machinery is required. Moreover, cost models could be used in flow sheet simulations applied in design and optimization. Models of unit operations built into the simulators could be improved by linking the equipment cost models (Khalesi et al., 2015). A number of approaches can be employed with the aim of developing the cost models. A review of these methods can be found in recent papers by Niazi et al. (2006) and Huang, Newnes, and Parry (2012). Regression is one the most frequently applied techniques for cost modelling (Smith and Mason, 1997). Several cost models have been established related to mining and milling projects (Table I). One of the preliminary works was undertaken by Prasad (1969) and has been carried on in the recent work of Sayadi, Khalesi, and Khosfarman (2014). Almost all of these models have been developed based on exponential single regression approaches; correlating only one independent variable to a cost value (Stebbins, 1987). Consequently, in spite of the usefulness of these models in preliminary cost estimation, the role of other effective parameters has simply been overlooked. Some of these models have become old and updating them also may cause significant errors. Furthermore, these models mainly estimate total operating cost, and estimation of detailed operating cost items such as maintenance, lubrication, etc. is not possible. To overcome these deficiencies, this paper aims to introduce up-to-date capital and detailed operating cost models considering multiple effective factors of flotation machines. Two sets of single (SRA) and multiple regression (MRA) cost functions are presented. The first set is suitable for cost estimation at the initial phases of a project and is mainly appropriate for building rapid cost estimates where only one particular design factor of a flotation machine is accessible. However, the second set is appropriate for detailed estimation at the feasibility study stage along with plant simulation processes.

+{"text":"Lightning strokes on utility transmission lines may cause flashovers between line to line or line to ground, which would consequently result in voltage sags at the lower AC voltage buses. A voltage sag at the AC bus of electric drives would cause a voltage drop at the drive DC bus voltage which may have an adverse impact on electric drive systems. Both AC and DC drives are sensitive to the DC bus voltage drop. Electric drive tripping, which would cause paper machine shutdown, is a frequent occurrence during lightning seasons. This paper presents the result of an investigation of the drive responses to the utility lightning strokes for a paper mill which has both AC and DC drives. Specifically, the following topics are discussed: (1) voltage sag phenomena related to the fault caused by lightning strokes on the utility transmission systems; (2) electric drive system responses to the voltage sags; a computer model on a three-phase system was developed to investigate the problems; and (3) possible system and drive modifications for riding through voltage sags. The impacts of the modifications have also been evaluated to assure proper paper machine operations.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":10483866,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1867592578","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/PAPCON.1999.779349","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Therefore, an all-male culture can dramatically increase the output and profitability of fishery products. According to the monosex breeding route, super-male individuals' acquirement by XY male sex reversal and artificial gynogenesis is the key step. An effective protocol to induce meiotic gynogenesis using homologous sperms has been developed in this study. The most effective UV irradiation for sperm genetic inactivation was found to be at a distance of 20\u00a0cm with 66\u00a0\u03bcW\/cm2 light intensity for 25\u00a0min. Optimal treatment for cold shock was 5\u00a0min post-fertilization at 0-4\u00b0C for 30\u00a0min, which gave the best survival rate of 13.65\u00a0\u00b1\u00a02.87%. The sex ratio in the meiotic gynogens showed a significant female-biased deviation (p\u00a0<\u00a0.05); thirty meiogynogens and their parents were further analysed using a male-specific AFLP marker, of which only the male parent produced a male-specific DNA band of 412\u00a0bp. These results indicated the female homogametic XX\/XY sex determination system in P.\u00a0ussuriensis.

However, there is little research comparing the behaviour and cognitive abilities of adopted and institution-reared children in Latin America, despite the large number of children living in institutional care. The aim of this thesis was to examine differences in the socio-emotional and cognitive functioning of adopted and institution-reared children in Chile, and to identify factors associated with the psychological adjustment and cognitive ability of adopted children. Data were obtained from 52 adopted children and their parents, and a comparison group of 50 children living in institutions. All adoptions were national and the children were aged between 4-9 years. Children's psychological problems and attachment difficulties were assessed using the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire and the Relationship Problems Questionnaire, respectively, completed by adoptive parents or caregivers and teachers. Cognitive functioning was assessed using the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Third Edition (WISC-III). The Structured Child Assessment of Relationships in Families was used to assess children's perceptions of family relationships. Adoptive mothers and fathers were individually administered a standardised interview designed to assess parenting quality and questionnaire assessments of anxiety, depression, marital quality and parenting stress. Observational assessments of mother-child interaction were also carried out. Adopted children showed significantly higher levels of socio-emotional and cognitive functioning than institution-reared children, with the majority of adopted children scoring within the normal range and the majority of institutionalised children showed clinical levels of emotional and behavioural problems. The mean IQ score of adopted children was 23 points higher than that of the institutionalised group. Factors associated with more positive outcomes among the adopted children were a younger age at adoption and lower levels of maternal and paternal stress. Although a selection effect cannot be ruled out, with higher functioning children more likely to be adopted, the results point to a beneficial effect of adoption on the psychological development and wellbeing of institutionalised children in Chile.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":149677337,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2894146206","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.17863\/CAM.24740","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Barthes critiqued the film's presumptions of fundamental human unity that led it to blur lines between Orient and Occident and to interpret differences between peoples as merely an \"oecumenicity of forms,\" that is, just variations within one pan- human whole. 1 For Barthes, universalizing approaches risk obscuring the significance and real meaning of difference, and accordingly, comparison of post- Roman and post- Abbasid state formation is confronted by a challenge. We cannot presume that an essential core of human existence unfurls an eternal compositioning of men into communal units when an empire falls, and Kennedy and Pohl, in their chapters in this volume, make a key observation that the Roman and Abbasid decompositions constitute two \"different historical cases.\" This in turn invokes a further wrinkle from Barthes, for he wonders whether, as a matter of theory, all different places and times have enough capital- H \"History\" 2 in common to epistemologically ground comparison.

Health Statistics Botswana (1995) noted that cervical cancer incidents continue to rise each year. It is even direr to have higher mortality and mobility among women in Botswana happening among a population that the HIV incidence and\/or prevalence are humanly high. It is therefore crucial for developing countries like Botswana to take action just like the developed countries to determine the factors that predict screening for cervical cancer behaviors among Batswana women. These factors will be used to inform the design of the intervention that will lower the burden and associated morbidity and mortality of cervical cancer in Botswana. Aim: The major aim of this pilot study was to identify factors among Batswana women in going for screening for cervical cancer. The specific aims were to identify the norms and beliefs that influence cervical cancer screening among women in Botswana aged 25-49 years thus to identifying the attitudes, behavioral intentions, subjective norms, social norms, perceived power, and perceived behavioral control about cervical cancer screening among women aged 25-49 years in Botswana. Methods: In this research study, a qualitative research paradigm research approach was used to understand people's attitudes, behavioral intentions, subjective norms, social norms, perceived power, and perceived behavioral control. The study was guided by the theory of reasoned action (TRA) and its extension the theory of planned behavior (TPB) and the social cognitive theory to conduct this elicitation phase.

Splenic fragments were collected for the quantification of parasitic load through qPCR, histopathological analysis and immunohistochemistry. CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, CD21+, IFN-\\03B3+, IL-10+, MMP-9 and ADAM-10 cells were evaluated as well as expression of laminin, collagen and fibronectin. SWP disorganization was accompanied by a reduction in the number of lymphoid follicles\/mm2 (p> 0.0001). MD-ID animals showed high levels of clinical signs (p= 0.021), high laminin (p= 0.045) and collagen deposition (p= 0.036), increased MMP-9 expression (p = 0.035) T CD4+(p= 0.027). The data suggest that splenic disorganization in CVL involves a greater deposition of laminin and collagen \nIn addition, the animals were distributed in groups according to the parasite burden and the organization of the Splenic pulp white, where it was possible to observe that the disorganization can be a recent process to the infection, since animals with low parasite burden had disorganized pulp white (p=0.0002) and laminin deposition increasing (p= 0.005). Animals with disorganized white pulp and high parasite burden showed an increase in the expression of collagen (p=0.041) and MMP-9 (p=0.035).These changes in the extracellular matrix compounds and in the expression of the metallopeptidases can lead to the reduction of CD4+ T cells and, consequently, the immunosuppression and progression of the disease.

Herein, the amount of graphite in the anode materials was intentionally varied during the electrode processing steps. The effect of graphite content on cell performance was evaluated in terms of the resultant microstructure, mechanical strength, and electrochemical performance. A higher quantity of graphite in the anode composite leads to higher porosity, and consequently, to the opposing effects of enhanced electrochemical performance during the initial stages and faster degradation of the current-voltage characteristics. However, among the evaluated graphite-controlled anodes, the one with the lowest graphite content exhibited the slowest degradation rate and a fairly poor electrochemical performance. The balance between the microstructure and the corresponding electrochemical performance is discussed in terms of the optimization of high-performance solid oxide fuel cells.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":168168255,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Introduction: Distinct longitudinal or radial grooves and ridges (henceforth denoted as \"striations\") are a shared morphological feature that is frequently observed on the ejecta of SLE (single layer ejecta) craters, DLE (double layer ejecta) craters [1,2,3] and landslide deposits on Mars [4,5,6,7] and Earth [8,9,10]. While their formation still remains enigmatic, it appears to be a fundamental geologic process during the emplacement of mass movement deposits [11]. Striations form in a variety of geologic settings: rock avalanches on glacial substrate [8], Martian rock avalanches [5,6], volcanic debris flows [9] and ejecta flows [2,3] under both dry and wet conditions and with different rock materials. The similarity of striations is a long standing issue [11,12], yet there is no consensus about the formation mechanism. Furthermore, no study focused on rigorous morphometric comparison of the features on different types of deposits. This study concentrates on the comparison of morphometric characteristics of striations and evaluates the possibility of a common formation mechanism.

+{"text":"PKA AS AN UPSTREAM KINASE FOR LKB1\/STRAD\/MO25 Seth T. Herway Department of Physiology and Developmental Biology Doctor of Philosophy The LKB1\/STRAD\/MO25 complex (LSMK) has been identified as the major upstream kinase for AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). PKA phosphorylates LKB1 at the Ser428 residue in humans and Ser431 residue in mice. We investigated PKA as an upstream kinase for LSMK. LKB1 that had been incubated with PKA prior to incubation with AMPK experienced up to a 51% increase in AMPK Kinase activity compared to LKB1 alone (p < 0.05). When blocked with a PKA Inhibitor, the kinase effect of PKA on LKB1 was eliminated. Rat epitrochlearis muscle tissue incubated with epinephrine experienced no increase in AMPK activity compared with controls indicating that epinephrine does not cause AMPK activity in this type of tissue. In conclusion, phosphorylation by PKA can increase the AMPKK activity of LKB1-STRAD-MO25 in vitro. Because LKB1 has been found to be constitutively active, it is postulated that phosphorylation by PKA may act to enhance LKB1-AMPK interaction and thus achieve its effect.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":54913137,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"813628124","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"I thank Professors Finnigan and Garfield (Jay) and the editors of Philosophy East and West for inviting me to join in this discussion of Chinese Buddhism. I have not taken many opportunities in my career to write about Zen Buddhism and Daoism, although I have been fascinated by their connection. I remember quite clearly a discussion I had with Jay some years back in which I broached the idea that Daoism had contrib uted important dialectical steps leading to the formulation of Zen, which I join the Chinese tradition in regarding as the highest version of the Buddhist insight. Jay ar gued to me at that time that the necessary insights were actually all available in Nagarjuna. I am accordingly pleased to see him exploring the idea of the contribu tions that features of Chinese thought might have made to this development in Bud dhism, although I don't assume that he needs to repudiate Nagarjuna's depth of insight or the claim that it contains all that is strictly necessary for the Zen account of insight or enlightenment. Accordingly in my discussion here, I will focus on how I see features of Chinese Daoist thought facilitating, if not providing necessary and sufficient conditions for, these insights. The account I will give targets neither Buddhist epistemology nor the state of mind of one who achieves the insight. Nor, strictly speaking, is my account focused on Buddhist ethics, which in my view would be the deontology of the Eight fold Path. However, along with Professor Finnigan, I will take the Four Noble Truths as the beginning point. Chinese schools tend to treat this as kindergarten Buddhism. I would agree that the other three noble truths raise issues in meta-ethics and the quasi-ethical issue of the meaning of life (is it meaningless suffering from which the only goal is escape?). The problem of Buddhism from China's point of view was how to reconcile the deeply pessimistic, nihilistic, and decadent (apologies to Nietzsche) tone of Buddhism with the upbeat, humorous, joyful exuberance of Chinese Daoism. Despite their different settings, my narrative will still pass through and deal with Finnigan's worry that some alleged tension in wu-wei is not resolved in Chinese thought and thus cannot resolve the deeper problem in Buddhism.

+{"text":"This paper reviews the regulatory and supervision policy in the United States before the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) and the structural reforms after GFC. The paper argues that large financial institutions were not well supervised before the GFC due to overlaps and cracks among supervisory agencies and due to the too-big-to-fail moral hazard. In response to the GFC, there was the creation of the G20 summit, Basel III proposed by the Bank of International Settlements, and the implementation of a new law to enhance financial stability in the United States, and these are discussed as reforms after the GFC. However, the paper emphasizes that despite all these reform efforts, still missing is the establishment of an orderly resolution mechanism for systemically important financial institutions (SIFI). Establishing an orderly resolution mechanism for SIFI is difficult because we need to avoid the moral hazard while maintaining financial stability. Finally, the paper makes a comparison of the GFC in the United States with the Japanese experience during the banking crisis of 1997\u201398.

+{"text":"Summary Motivation: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a common herpes virus that establishes life long persistence in the human host and can directly transform B-lymphocytes. EBV causes the infectious mononucleosis and associates with several human malignancies such as B cell lymphoma, gastric adenocarcinoma, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and post transplant lymphoproliferative disease. EBV can drive B cell development and survival in the absence of normal B cell receptor signals. The goal of our work is to define the mechanisms by which EBV regulates B cell fate. Results: Two sections of the GeneNet database were created. The section EBV infection contains description of processes in B cells infected with EBV. The section EBV transformation compiles the information on signal transduction pathways and regulatory proteins as well as on the genes and proteins whose expression changes in transformed B cells. Also, the new section of the TRRD database contains the information on transcriptional regulation of 47 genes involved in processes of EBV infection and\/or transformation. Analysis of the information from these new sections revealed several transcription factors important for regulation of B cell fate by EBV. The samples of corresponding binding sites were constructed, and the methods for recognizing binding sites of these factors with help of SITECON were developed. Regulatory regions of genes expressed in B cells were scanned by the methods and some putative binding sites were recognized.

+{"text":"The vehicle dynamics model are important tools for research and development in automotive Industry . In today's fast paced industry, the use of software-based simulation plays a vital role in testing and verification of products. The vehicle longitudinal dynamics considers the behavior of different forces acting on the vehicle during its longitudinal motion. The resistance forces in turn may affect the performance of the vehicle powertrain , pushing the propulsion system to provide more better performance to overcome the resistance. This leads to lowering of efficiency or increase in power loss. To observe the vehicle behavior in real life , it may certainly require costly experimentation or simulations , on the other hand software-based approach can lead to a less time-consuming situation. The Aim of this thesis is to provide a model that is like a vehicle with an electric powertrain and analyzing the efficiency and losses by experimental techniques followed by using software-based approach.Hence, a software package or toolbox that can perform different tasks related to vehicle dynamics and performance shall be presented. The Thesis was carried out using Octave software that features a high-level programming language, primarily intended for numerical computations. The Results obtained from the simulation of the software are in line with real world behavior of a vehicle with electric powertrain.

+{"text":"With the advent of the lnternet-of-Things (1oT) era, sensor nodes are required in almost all fields to achieve a better interaction between humans and the environment. Piezoelectric energy harvester (PEH), which exhibits an equivalent electrical model of an AC current source \/P in parallel with the inherent capacitor CP, is a promising technology to resolve the energy problem of such sensor nodes. Recently, inductor-based rectifiers, capacitor-based rectifiers and hybrid rectifiers have been proposed to improve the energy extraction efficiency of PEH devices [1]\u2013[5]. However, these structures all require the aid of additional capacitors or inductors to achieve bias-flip operation, as illustrated in Fig. 1. These extra passive devices are typically large, which can be a major bottleneck in system-volumeconstrained applications such as MEMS [4]. In response to the above problem, this work proposes a novel 8-phase self bias-flip PEH interface with charge recycling and reusing (SBFRR). By using the C P of 4 PEHs as flipping capacitors, this scheme achieves a high voltage flipping efficiency without using extra energy reservoirs. The 4 C P can also serve as flying capacitors to achieve switched-PEH DC-DC (SPDC) conversion for MPPT, while maintaining a MOPIR of >3.5\u00d7 with a PEH input voltage (Vp) from 0. 78Vto4.9V.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":258641696,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/cicc57935.2023.10121219","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The method used to fulfill the purpose is a quantitative study of transactions of tenant-owned apartments in Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmo and Uppsala. The existence of an optimal capital structure due to the debt ratio of housing cooperative is the hypothesis set in the thesis. The null hypothesis that intends to be rejected is that the coefficient of the debt ratio variable is equal to zero. Regression analyses by polynomial functions are used to try the hypothesis. Since the relationship between debt ratio and value is believed to be concave, a squared debt ratio is included in the model. If the searched relationship appears to exist, it implies the existence of an optimal capital structure for private housing cooperatives. \n \nThe result in the thesis indicates on a positive leverage effect for the total value up to a certain debt ratio. After that point the leverage effect appears to be negative. An initially positive marginal effect followed by a negative marginal effect generates a concave relationship between the debts and the value. The result thereby indicates the existents of an optimal capital structure for private housing cooperatives. The positive leverage effect is believed to depend on the housing cooperative\u00b4s lower interest cost compared to the interest cost tenant-owned apartment resident's holds, as well as the tenant-owner's limited leverage opportunities according to restrictions such as amortization requirements. The negative leverage effect is supposed to be a consequence of tenant-owner's possibility of interest deduction on private debts. The thesis is relevant since it gives a broader understanding for how housing cooperative\u00b4s debts affect the value of tenant-owned apartments.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":200040189,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2964300978","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The process of measurement, evaluation and efficiency improvement of the Italian Universities has become fundamental for the accountability to various stakeholders: students and their families, institutions, companies and especially the Government, that is the main financier. Recently, the Italian universities have adopted a competitive behavior in order to maximize their share of public resources allocation, in a framework of constant reduction in funding. In this competitive scenario, students can be considered as \"customers\", since they can choose the university in which to enroll or change it in the case of dissatisfaction if it doesn't meet their expectations (Petruzzellis et al., 2006). For this reason, Universities should plan their educational offer\u2701 also on the basis of the needs expressed by their stakeholders, first of all taking care about students' placement and continuous improvement of service quality. The last reform of the Italian university system has been aimed at improving the quality of service offered, entrusting the National Agency of Evaluation (ANVUR) to oversee the related processes. Using the data collected by the last survey \"Opinione degli studenti\", this paper deals with the assessment of the student's satisfaction in the three areas of education, teaching and interest for academic courses, as stated by Anvur questionnaire. Through a descriptive and a multivariate statistical analysis (Principal Component Analysis), student satisfaction has been measured with reference to the quality of teachers, teaching materials, and logistical support, under the most relevant variables: students' percentage of lessons attendance, type of course (first and second level degree) and course scientific group. It emerges that the quality of teaching seems to be related to \"tangible aspects\" as perceived by students: teaching materials, interesting lessons, teacher clearness, coherence topic consistency with the contents of the course website, teacher availability for additional explanations. In the following years, one of the most important challenges for the academic courses coordinators might be the adoption of specific initiatives aimed at reaching the 100% of satisfied students; they have to be sure of the reliability of student judgments.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":186805140,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2800549829","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The major mediator of hypoxic responses is hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha ( HIF-1\u03b1 ). Hypoxic tumors are resistant to radiotherapy and chemotherapy and are associated with poor prognosis. Patients and Methods: We investigated the expression level of HIF-1\u03b1 mRNA in 60 de novo AML patients, together with 20 healthy controls using a Real-Time Quantitative Reverse-Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction (RTQ-PCR) aiming of determining its relation to clinical features and laboratory findings at diagnosis and its impact on patients' outcome. Results: HIF-1\u03b1 mRNA expression level was significantly higher in AML patients than in controls (p=\u02c20.001). Higher levels of HIF-1 \u03b1 was found in patients with extra medullary infiltrations (HSM and LNs enlargement) (p<0.001). HIF-1\u03b1 mean expression level was significantly higher in patients who didn't achieve CR (11.55\u00b14.74) compared to (3.0\u00b11.78) in CR patients, the difference was highly statistically significant (p<0.001).

+{"text":"The torpor cut-off method is widely used in papers on endothermic heterothermy to describe patterns in body temperature. However, this method has several theoretical and logistical limitations, some already recognized but others not, that may hinder our understanding of heterothermy in endotherms. Here we discuss these limitations and their implications and argue that new analytical techniques should be developed and used in the study of endothermic heterothermy. & 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. In recent years, there has been a proliferation of papers reporting temporal variation of body temperature (Tb) in endotherms. For several reasons, not least the importance of facultative hypothermic responses in the evolution of endothermy (e.g., Grigg et al., 2004; Malan, 1996), the majority of these papers have focused on describing patterns of torpor and hibernation (hereafter, collectively referred to as ''torpor''). Generally speaking, the authors of these papers rely on threshold Tb values (referred to the ''cut-off method'' herein) to distinguish between homeothermic and heterothermic species. In practice, the cut-off method categorizes each Tb datum as either torpor or normothermy based on whether the Tb is above or below the cut-off value. The method is logistically simple and therefore an attractive method to analyze Tb data. However, it has several inherent problems and implications, some recognized but others not, and we believe that authors should be aware of the limitations of the technique. Theoretically, using a consistent threshold to define periods of torpor makes comparing torpor patterns (e.g., the number and length of torpor bouts) between individuals, populations, and species logistically feasible. In practice, however, the cut-off method suffers from several problems that make comparative analyses based on this technique questionable. As widely recognized and often pointed out by other authors (Barclay et al., 2001; Willis, 2007), this method relies on the largely arbitrary determination of appropriate Tb cut-off values and leads to considerable variation in application of the method from study to study. For example, Barclay et al.'s (2001) survey of recent literature shows that torpor cut-off values range from 26 1C to 36 1C with no consistency, even among studies on related taxa. Even after recognizing that different species can be physiologically defined as entering torpor at different temperatures (Merola-Zwartjes and Ligon, 2000), the often arbitrary nature of Tb values used makes direct comparisons between studies statistically difficult at best. Several attempts have been made to impose empirical validity on the definition of torpor cut-off values (McKechnie et al., 2007; Smit and McKechnie, 2010; Willis, 2007), but these methods have not yet been widely employed. One key issue is whether cut-off values correspond with transitions between different physiological states. Very few data are available in this regard, but in at least some species the Tb ranges of different physiological states have been shown to overlap. MerolaZwartjes and Ligon (2000) showed that the upper Tb limits for torpor (defined as the loss of the capacity for flight and responses to external stimuli) in Puerto Rican Todies (Todus mexicanus) was 29.3 1C, but the lower limit for non-torpid individuals was 27.9 1C. Likewise, the capacity for flight at Tbo30 1C (a value often used as a cut-off) has been demonstrated in several bat species (Choi et al., 1998; Genoud, 1993; Hirshfield and O'Farrell, 1976; Studier and O'Farrell, 1972) and one bird species (Austin and Bradley, 1969). The notion that an endotherm capable of coordinated locomotion should be considered torpid, purely on account of a reduced Tb, is inconsistent with the IUPS definition of torpor (IUPS Thermal Commission, 2003). Although reduced responsiveness to external stimuli (or lethargy) associated with a low Tb would impose an ecological cost on a torpid endotherm, very few studies have investigated how locomotor performance correlates with Tb in endotherms. Therefore, unless torpor cut-off values can be shown to correspond to an actual physiological state, the use of this method will remain arbitrary. Besides the arbitrary nature of Tb cut-off values (Barclay et al., 2001; Willis, 2007), several other problems may be associated with definitions of torpor based on specific Tb values. First, because most studies focus on determining when an animal is torpid, any period where the animal's Tb does not reach the cut-off is implicitly disregarded as ecologically and energetically inconsequential, despite the fact that shallow bouts are likely important to the animal in terms of energy balance (Willis and Brigham, 2003). It is difficult to argue that a bout in which minimum Tb is 1 1C above the cut-off value is ecologically less important to the animal than a bout","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":203572938,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The fission of highly excited compound nuclei formed in heavy ion induced fusion reactions has emerged as a topic of considerable interest in the recent years. \nDissipative dynamical models based on the Langevin equation were developed and were applied successfully for fission dynamics of highly excited heavy nuclei. However, Wall Friction(WF), the standard version of nuclear friction when incorporated in the Langevin dynamical model was not able to reproduce simultaneously experimental data for both prescission neutron multiplicity and fission probability. Consequently, an empirical reduction in the strength of the wall friction was found necessary to reproduce the experimental numbers by many workers. Interestingly, a modification of the wall friction was proposed recently where the reduction was achieved microscopically. This modified version is known as the chaos weighted wall friction(CWWF) which takes into account non-integrability of single particle motion. The work in my thesis aims at using this strongly shape dependent version of friction (CWWF) in the Langevin dynamical model coupled with particle and gamma evaporation in order to verify to what extent it can account for the experimental data of fission of hot nuclei. The experimental data includes excitation functions of prescission neutron multiplicity, fission probability as well as evaporation residue cross-section of a number of nuclei. The importance of transients in nuclear fission is also discussed. The present endeavour is an effort to obtain a clear physical picture of nuclear dissipation which in turn will help in solving many open problems related to collective motion, and in particular, nuclear fission.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":118483316,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1651355165","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":"nucl-th\/0411005"},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

A current review of research indicates that device geometries with thin (<30 \u03bcm) film layers and reduced stack temperature gradients will be required to meet device performance and reliability requirements [2]. We have developed a process based cost model for high volume manufacturing of SOFC devices [3]. This work investigates the sensitivity SOFC device manufacturing costs with respect to device performance and reliability requirements. We have incorporated process capability requirements to determine at what performance level process capability must be considered to provide an accurate cost model, enabling a determination of cost viability for device designs prior to manufacturing investment. We have also investigated the cost of process capability against the potential savings in balance of plant costs as device operation temperatures are reduced. Our work indicates that the device designs requiring electrolyte films at less than 30 \u03bcm result in a cost difference of up to $50 per unit cell, for traditional screen printing and tape casting processes. Additionally, our investigation indicates that the savings in materials and manufacturing for BOP costs at lower temperatures may not be offset for operation temperatures below 700\u00b0C for cell maximum power densities of 1 W\/cm 2 . Additionally, cost performance maps are used to indicate optimum performance and operation temperature regimes for 5 kW system cost minimization.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":86622487,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2526315903","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1149\/200507.0931PV","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Spectroscopic and conformational studies can provide convenient methods to monitor these species and help to understand the reaction mechanism in the atmosphere. In this work, we report the LIF excitation spectrum following photolysis of cyclohexylmethyl and 2-cyclohexylethyl nitrites. The rotationally resolved LIF formaldehyde spectrum appeared in the narrow wavelength region of 28\u2006290 to 28\u2006350 cm\u22121 in the photolysis precursor cyclohexylmethyl and 2-cyclohexylethyl nitrites. Furthermore, for the first time, a nicely resolved vibrational structure LIF spectrum of 2-cyclohexylethoxy was acquired in the wavelength region of 28\u2006800 to 29\u2006800 cm\u22121. This spectrum was assigned preliminarily to G1G2 and G1G\u20322 conformers of 2-cyclohexylethoxy. The spectrum of 2-cyclohexylethoxy was similar to 1-propoxy that no \u03bd >1 C\u2013O stretch was observed in the jet-cooled spectrum.

+{"text":".Assessment of the hepatobiliary system by nuclear medicine techniques in the infant < 12 mo of age is usually indicated to help determine the etiology of jaundice. The majority of cases occur in children in the first 3 mo of life. This article primarily addresses the use of hepatobiliary scintigraphy in the neonatal period, but it also identifies other conditions that can occur in the first 12 mo of life. Hyperbilirubinemia in the neonatal period is common, and, in the majority of cases, is due to benign physiological jaundice, a self-limiting condition. Persistent jaundice beyond 2 wk of age in full-term infants and 3 wk in preterm babies is not physio logical, however, and evaluation of these patients must be undertaken (1-3). Cholestasis or prolonged elevation of serum conjugated bilirubin is always pathological. Cholestasis can be attributed to either intrahepatic causes of an infectious, meta bolic or genetic nature or extrahepatic abnormalities causing mechanical obstruction to bile flow. Specific etiologies are discussed in detail in many major texts (1-3). The diagnosis of biliary atresia in the neonatal period is often difficult. Its early diagnosis and the distinction of biliary atresia from other causes of jaundice are vital, as early intervention is paramount for the successful surgical correction of biliary atresia (4,5). Over the last 10 yr, we have performed 210 hepatobiliary scans in infants who were < 3 mo of age. The final diagnoses in this group were biliary atresia (40%), genetic\/metabolic diseases (25%), infectious diseases (10%), Alagille syndrome (6%), Cholestasis secondary to total parenteral nutrition ( 10%) and idiopathic neonatal hepatitis (9%).

+{"text":"The study of random objects is a useful one in many applications and areas of mathematics. The Probabilistic Method, introduced by Paul Erd\u0151s and his many collaborators, was first used to study the behavior of random graphs and later to study properties of random objects. It has developed as a powerful tool in combinatorics as well as finding applications in linear algebra, number theory, and many other areas. In this dissertation, we will consider random vectors, in particular, dependency among random vectors. We will randomly choose vectors according to a specified probability distribution. We wish to determine how many vectors must be generated before the vectors are almost surely dependent, that is, there is a high probability that a subset of the vectors is linearly dependent. In Chapter 1, we will review previous work done in this area. A typical result in the study of random objects is a threshold function that describes the behavior of a given property of the objects. We will discuss previous threshold functions and methods used to find them. The results found for this problem before now have been for vectors of bounded or fixed weight. In Chapter 2, we will develop the methods we will use later on vectors of fixed weight. We will then use these methods in Chapter 3 to vary the probability model under which the vectors are generated. Instead of considering vectors of fixed weight, we will consider a general probability model for choosing the vectors: each position in a vector will be assigned a probability of containing a nonzero entry. Finally, in Chapter 4 we will specify a function for this probability. We will then find a threshold result for the specified probability model. This result will give a lower bound for the number of vectors needed before they are almost surely dependent.

+{"text":"Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated chemodynamic therapy (CDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT) have potential for various cancer treatments. However, they are still bound by the demands of Fenton reaction conditions such as oxygen dependence, inherent defects in common standard photosensitizers (PSs), and the continuous availability of laser sources. Herein, we designed Ce3NbO7\/g-C3N4 nanocomposites (NCs) and investigated their ability to evaluate the performance of PTT\/CDT synergistically to enhance cancer treatment. The activation of Ce3NbO7\/g-C3N4 NCs in the tumor microenvironment (TME) causes the generation of cytotoxic ROS via the Fenton reaction. Additionally, the g-C3N4 in NCs absorbs NIR, generating hyperthermia in the TME. The photothermal conversion efficiency (\u019e) of the Ce3NbO7\/g-C3N4 NCs was found to be 49.5%. A photocatalytic reaction with PTT-enhanced Fenton reagents, without consuming additional photothermal agents (PTA) or Fenton reagents, generates the hydroxyl radical (OH\u2022) primarily by direct electron transfer in the TME. Almost 68% of cells experienced programmed cell death due to the combinational effect (PTT\/CDT), making it an efficient and biocompatible therapy. Furthermore, this work provides a basis for developing numerous innovative materials that can be used to treat cancer, overcome general limitations, and enhance ROS production under single-wavelength (808 nm) laser irradiation.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":259226469,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3390\/cryst13060954","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2073-4352\/13\/6\/954\/pdf?version=1687159627","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Contrary to popular belief, the idea of \"pure\" geometry, divorced from algebra, is quite recent (early nineteenth century) and was completely foreign to the Greeks. They had no algebra in the modern sense, but their geometry was really an \"algebro-geometry,\" a complex mixture of purely geometric arguments, and computations with ratios of segments. For instance, most properties of conics are proved by Apollonius by using what we now would call the cartesian equation of the curve with respect to two axes consisting of a tangent to the conic and the corresponding diameter. On the other hand, the solution of quadratic equations is presented as a geometric construction of areas. Finally the method of solving an algebraic problem by finding the intersection of two curves is one of the oldest in Greek mathematics: the solution given by Maenechmus to the problem of \"duplicating the cube\" (i.e., finding a ratio x\/y such that (x\/y)3 = a\/b, a given ratio) was to intersect the two curves xy = ab, ay = x2, and this introduced the conics in mathematics. As soon as the invention of coordinates enormously enlarged the scope of geometry, both Descartes and Newton emphasized the possibility of using this new tool to solve far more complicated equations by intersection of curves. Thus, again contrary to what most people think, the method of coordinates worked both ways, linking algebra and geometry rather than replacing one by the other. This possibility of interpreting algebraic problems in geometric terms had a great appeal for mathematicians ever since the end of the seventeenth century. Unfortunately it was limited to problems dealing with 2 or 3 independent variables, but with the development of Mechanics and Astronomy, problems with an arbitrary number of variables (the \"degrees of freedom\") became more and more common; furthermore, the passage from n variables to n + 1 variables usually did not modify the algebraic treatment in an appreciable way. The temptation to use in such problems a language inspired by geometry thus became irresistible by the middle of the nineteenth century; after 1870 it was generally agreed that one could use in mathematics a conventional language, derived from ordinary geometry, without of course claiming any more that it corresponded to an underlying physical reality. Instead of speaking of a system of n numbers, one would say it was a \"point in n-dimensional space;\" the set of such systems satisfying a linear equation would be called a \"hyperplane,\" etc. The success of this idea has been amazing, and has proliferated during the last century in an unexpected variety of ways. In the remainder of this paper I would like to emphasize some of the highlights of this evolution.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":122498782,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"324893814","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.2307\/3027068","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Abstract Background: Ear, nose and throat (ENT) departments commonly receive referrals of dizzy patients from primary care. It is important to distinguish complex cases of dizziness without straightforward diagnoses from simple benign positional paroxysmal vertigo (BPPV) when triaging patients such that appropriate resources are diverted to the patients who need them. Objective: To assess efficiency in identifying BPPV among dizzy patients from GP referral letters. Methods: Four doctors with different ENT experience and one senior nurse participated to identify BPPV cases from primary care referral letters before the patients' clinic appointments. The diagnoses subsequently made in clinic were used to compare against the predictions made. Results: Forty-nine patients were included, of which 22% were diagnosed BPPV in clinic. The overall predictions were poor among the participants. The positive predictive values (PPV) varied between 0.23 and 0.35. Negative predictive values (NPV) varied between 0.78 and 0.86. The commonly described clinical features of BPPV also had low PPV of less than 0.3. Conclusions: The accuracy to identify BPPV from referral letters alone is poor among doctors of different experience. We believe this is due to insufficient details in the current letters. The introduction of referral proformas would likely aid diagnosis.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":80623951,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2756811720","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1080\/21695717.2017.1380965","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The solar magnetic activity is produced by a complex dynamo mechanism and exhibits nonlinear dissipation behavior in nature. The chaotic and fractal properties of solar activity phenomena are of great importance for understanding the nonlinear dynamo actions, especially nonlinear dynamo models. To study the chaotic and fractal properties of solar activity phenomena at the high-and low-latitudes, the polar faculae and sunspot numbers in the time interval from 1952 February to 1998 June are used to investigate their nonlinear dynamical behavior by the recurrence analysis method and Grassberger-Procaccia (G-P) algorithm. Firstly, the monthly average value of both polar faculae and sunspot numbers are smoothed to filter the noisy signal by the 13-point smoothing method. This procedure can keep the original dynamical information. Secondly, the correlation coefficient of these two solar activity indicators is analyzed, and the analysis results indicate that there is a negative correlation between polar faculae and sunspot numbers. To obtain more accurate results, the recurrence quantification analysis (RQA) is used to obtain the average value of the rate of DET by selecting four groups of different parameters. And then, we use the G-P algorithm to draw the correlation integral curve graphs and to obtain the correlation dimension of polar faculae and the sunspot numbers. Finally, the analysis results given by RQA and G-P algorithm are analyzed and compared by advanced statistical method. The main conclusions of this paper are as follows. 1) From a statistical point of view, the chaotic and fractal properties of high-and low-latitudes solar activity are different between in the northern hemisphere and in the southern hemisphere, owing to the fact that the temporal variation of solar activity is closely related to the magnetic field evolution. This result is in agreement with the previous results given by the polar faculae. It should be pointed out that this result is not the main goal of this article, we only reinforce this conclusion by the recurrence analysis and G-P algorithm. 2) The chaotic behaviors of solar magnetic activity at high latitude are stronger than at low latitude. Furthermore, the high-latitude solar activity in the northern hemisphere has the most complex fractal structure.

+{"text":"It has now been well established that migraine has multiple comorbidities, and these include a variety of psychiatric conditions (depression, bipolar disease, and panic disorder), mitral valve prolapse, irritable bowel syndrome, labyrinthopathy, motion sickness, and epilepsy. These comorbidities are conditions highly correlated with migraine. Bipolar disease, for example, occurs six times more likely than expected in patients who have migraine with aura. That the observed comorbidity, is not simply a product of random chance cannot be questioned. We continue to call patients with these comorbid conditions \"migraine headache patients,\" however, and simply add the other diagnostic labels at the end of our reports, if we are so inclined. In my way of thinking, this would be akin simply to reporting that a patient has edema and subsequently adding on shortness of breath and fatigue instead of naming the whole syndrome of \"congestive heart failure.\" In this scenario where we simply add-on the comorbidities, we tend to minimize the associated diseases. Anybody reviewing the patients will note the diagnosis \"migraine\" on the top of the page and assume that this is a simple headache problem. It has been my experience that patients tell their doctor about the disease that they believe the doctor wants to hear about, or they may only tell the doctor about the disorder that is most personally distressing at the moment. A patient with very severe bipolar disorder may spend most of his\/her time visiting psychiatrists or being admitted to psychiatric facilities; the diagnosis of migraine is listed far down the list and may be excluded altogether. On the other hand, patients with very severe, disabling headache, treated by a number of specialists for that problem and taking multiple migraine drugs, are listed first and foremost as having migraine even if they previously have had a significant depression or bipolar disorder, which, again, may be excluded altogether from their diagnostic list. It is my impression that we should be diagnosing our patients in a less patchwork fashion. An individual with significant migraine and significant comorbidity should be identified as having something on the order of complex migraine comorbidity disoder. The upside of this would be a more precise and descriptive term for our worst patients, paying due both to all the work required to diagnose and manage the comorbid condition to the level of distress the patient is suffering. The patient no longer would be seen as simply \"a headache patient\" by other treating doctors.

+{"text":"Model-based signal processing for active sonar localization is typically infeasible due to insufficient knowledge of the acoustic environment. Additionally, in a shallow ocean environment, surface or bottom roughness create diffuse reverberation that can often obscure a desired target echo. Recently, a nonlinear signal processing technique was developed for passive acoustic source localization (Worthmann, et al., 2015) that is applicable to high frequency sources in uncertain shallow ocean environments. This technique exploits a nonlinear field product (the autoproduct) and uses in-band hydrophone array measurements to determine field information in a lower, out-of-band, frequency regime where environmental uncertainties are less detrimental. When extended to monostatic active sonar with a vertical array, this technique allows a model-based signal processing algorithm to combat the detrimental effects of reverberation. The nonlinear signal processing algorithm is presented, along with simulations in a 5-km range, 200-m deep ideal waveguide with environmental uncertainties and significant reverberation at frequencies between 2- and 5-kHz. Successful detection and localization of a mid-water-column target is found to be possible at simulated signal-to-reverberation levels as low as \u22125 dB. Comparisons to existing signal processing detection and localization algorithms are provided.

+{"text":"Over the last decades, treatment of domestic wastewater promoted by environmental regulations have reduced human health risks and improved water quality. However, ecological risks caused by effluents of wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) discharged into rivers still persist. Moreover, the evolution of these ecological risks in the future is intimately related to effects of changing climate, especially regarding streamflow in receiving rivers. Here, we present an analytical and transferable framework for assessing the ecological risks posed by WWTP\u2010effluents at the catchment scale. The framework combines the size\u2010class k of WWTPs, which is a load\u2010proxy, with their outflows' location in river networks, represented by stream\u2010order \u03c9. We identify ecological risks by using three proxy indicators: the urban discharge fraction and the local\u2010scale concentrations of each total phosphorous and ammonium\u2010nitrogen discharged from WWTPs. About 3,200 WWTPs over three large catchments (Rhine, Elbe, and Weser) in Central Europe were analyzed by incorporating simulated streamflow for the most extreme projected climate change scenario. We found that WWTPs causing ecological risks in the future prevail in lower \u03c9, across almost all k. Distinct patterns of ecological risks are identified in the k\u2010\u03c9 framework for different indicators and catchments. We show, as climate changes, intensified risks are especially expected in lower \u03c9 receiving effluents of intermediate\u2010k WWTPs. We discuss the implications of our findings for prioritizing WWTPs upgrading and urging updates on environmental regulations. Further discussions underline the feasibility of applying the framework to any geographical regions and highlight its potentials to help in achieving global long\u2010term commitments on freshwater security.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":251462172,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1029\/2021EF002601","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"We consider the problem of automatic tabla transcription, specifically, the reconstruction of a score-like notation that represents timbral categories and rhythmic values. To that end, a computer-based representation for tabla is proposed that allows for encoding, analysis, and typesetting. \nA transcription system consisting of modules for onset detection, stroke timbre recognition, and rhythm detection was created. Performance was evaluated on a large database taken from three performers under different recording conditions, containing a total of 16,834 strokes. First, the time-domain signal was segmented using complex-domain thresholding that looked for sudden changes in amplitude and phase discontinuities. 98% of onsets were detected against a 1% false positive rate. \nClassification of strokes was performed using a maximum a posteriori (MAP) rule with a multivariate normal likelihood distribution (MVN), and using non-parametric techniques such as probabilistic neural networks (PNN), feed-forward neural networks (FFNN), and tree-based classifiers. Two evaluation protocols were used. The first used 10-fold cross validation. The recognition rate averaged over many experiments that contained 10-15 classes was 92% for the MVN, 94% for the FFNN and PNN, and 84% for the tree-based classifier. To test generalization, a more difficult independent evaluation was undertaken in which no test strokes came from the same recording as the training strokes. The average recognition rate over a wide variety of test conditions was 76% for the MVN, 83% for the FFNN, 76% for the PNN, and 66% for the tree-based classifier. \nTo determine rhythmic values for strokes, stroke durations were expressed in terms of the beat period (seconds\/beat), which was estimated by taking the auto-correlation of the onset detection function, as well as by a duration histogram method.

This multiple comparative case study explored the strategies used by 4 aluminum producers in Western Europe: 2 companies that have successfully reduced production costs and 2 companies that have not. Wicksteed's economic theory of production and production costs was the conceptual framework for this research. Data from the companies' strategic and industry reports and from interviews with 32 senior managers were analyzed using pattern finding and clustering, a recursive approach to data gathering and analysis established by Miles, Huberman, and Saldana. Six themes emerged: (a) upstream integration, (b) energy and price efficiency, (c) carbon-manufacturing capability, (d) operational excellence and productivity, (e) technological and research developmental abilities, and (f) circular economy. The analysis of these themes indicated that the most significant opportunities for productivity improvement include (a) minimizing energy and material use, specifically alumina, cathodes, and carbon, (b) vertically integrating alumina production, (c) developing an efficient circular economic model that integrates the material properties to expand the recyclability of waste, and (d) increasing the electrolytic cell life cycle. Overall, vertical integration provides a competitive advantage and gives the producer ability to control costs. In-house carbon manufacturing capacity reduces a smelter's operating cost. Technological capabilities can minimize energy and material consumption rates. Increased productivity and reduced energy and material use can yield positive social changes, such as the preservation of natural resources, reduced emissions, and waste.Slumping world aluminum prices have energized some aluminum producers to institute strategies to reduce product costs.

It includes a pre-processing unit, input sub-data latches, a control unit, Booth decoders, filter coefficient registers, an accumulation path and a post-processing unit. To decrease hardware complexity, the pre-processing unit, input sub-data latches and Booth decoders are explored by using the 2-bit word length of sub-data latches instead of the conventional 3-bit one. In addition, the accumulation path using the carry save adders is designed by using the addition delay scheme to minimize the numbers of half adders and latches as compared to the conventional Booth-algorithm FIR architecture. The proposed FIR architecture can reduce more hardware complexities as the word length of input data, and the tap number of FIR increase. For example, when the 8-tap FIR with 8-bit input data, and the 256-tap FIR with 16-bit input data are designed, the proposed FIR architecture would save about 11% and 25% of hardware complexity respectively.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":39392876,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1881973177","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/ISCAS.2001.922242","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Sources of single photons are of fundamental importance in many applications as to provide quantum states for quantum communication and quantum information processing. Color centers in diamond are prominent candidates to generate and manipulate quantum states of light, even at room temperature. However, the efficiency of photon collection of the color centers in bulk diamond is greatly reduced by refraction at the diamond\/air interface. To address this issue, diamond structuring has been investigated by various methods. Among them, focused-ion-beam (FIB) direct patterning has been recognized as the most favorable technique. But it has been noted that diamond tends to present significant challenges in FIB milling, e.g., the susceptibility of forming charging related artifacts and topographical features. In this work, periodically-positioned-rings and overlay patterning with stagger-superimposed-rings were proposed to alleviate some problems encountered in FIB milling of diamond, for improved surface morphology and shape control. Cross-scale network and uniform nanostructure arrays have been achieved in single crystalline diamond substrates. High quality diamond solid immersion lens and nanopillars were sculptured with a nitrogen-vacancy center buried at the desired position. Compared with the film counterpart, an enhancement of about ten folds in single photon collection efficiency was achieved with greatly improved signal to noise ratio. All these results indicate that FIB milling through over-lay patterning could be an effective approach to fabricate diamond structures, potentially for quantum information studies.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":59042144,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2068584508","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1063\/1.4891022","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Both the intensity and frequency ofRaman active 1,2-dimethoxypropane vibrations were calculated. The C-C or C-O bands in the 700-900 cm -1 region were found to be particularly sensitive to chain conformational changes. The bands at 810 and 836 cm -1 were assigned to TG \u03b1 T and TTT conformations of the -O-C-C-O- sequence along the backbone, respectively. Therefore an increase in intensity at 810 cm -1 directly correlates to an increase in the TG \u03b1 T conformation with an increase in salt concentration. The effects of end groups on chain conformational changes were also studied since Li + can interact with both -OH end groups and ether oxygens. Poly(propylene oxide)s having hydroxy and methoxy end groups were compared. Our analyses indicate the interaction between hydroxy end groups and the lithium cation does not contribute as significantly to formation of the TG \u03b1 T conformation as does the interaction between the ether oxygen and lithium cation.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":94476793,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1982804755","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1021\/MA00116A031","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"This well-balanced intellectual biography is very helpful for economists who want to explore or exploit the ideas of Schumpeter. These ideas are so rich, open-ended and heterodox that they have largely been squeezed out from standard histories of economic thought. Richard Sweedberg's use of the biographical approach allows him to be more open and to focus on the coherence as well as the diversity of Schumpeter's work. At the same time he can tell a well-researched and fascinating story of Schumpeter's private, academic and political life from 1883 to 1950. The book is mainly ordered chronologically, but for each period life sketches are seperated from presentations and evaluations of Schumpeter's books and major papers. Schumpeter's decisive years in Vienna and other parts of the Austrian-Hungarian empire are dealt with in chapters 1-3. Special emphasis is put on Schumpeter's voluminous books on pure economics, economic development and the history of economic thought which were produced before he was 30 years old. His political activities during and immediately after World War I are also treated (including his rather unsuccessful service as Austrian Minister of Finance). Schumpeter's activities from just before 1920 to the early 1930s are covered in chapters 4-5. In this period he became a professor in the Weimar republic and made contributions to economic theory as well as to economic sociology; especially the latter are summarised in the book. Chapters 6-8 explore Schumpeter's US period from the 1930s until his death. This period as a famous Harvard professor was characterised by extremely hard work but also by little real recognition of his core ideas. The exposition concentrate on his three volunimous books on business cycles, capitalism and socialism, and the history of economic analysis. But even a series of papers related to Schumpeter's historically oriented revision of his theory of innovative entrepreneurship is dealt with. It is not an easy task to give a balanced and integrated account for a life which covers such radically different epochs and cultures and for a work which covers a wide range of topics and methods. But this is what the reader looks for and what the book aims at. Since Swedberg has to a large extent been succeesful, he has produced the standard reference on Schumpeter's life and work. For most economists the two-volume Schumpeter biography by Loring Allen (1991)-which came out before Swedberg's book-is no real competitor since it is more focussed \u2026","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":15681667,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"s for Parallel Sessions Room 1: 9.30 \u2013 10.50 Existentialism and Political Failure: Lessons for Today Michael Sigrist (George Washington University) I examine recent failures in liberal democracy by looking to attempts by Sartre, Beauvoir, and Merleau-Ponty to understand the political failures of Marxism. I treat political failures as forms of collective failure. A collective failure occurs whenever individuals fail to cooperate in ways that each ought to desire. Sartre and Beauvoir tend to explain the failures of Marxism as either moral or institutional failures. Explanations for moral failure look to the minds of individual agents themselves (ignorance, lack of resolve, bad faith, etc.), while explanations of institutional failure look to the social and historical situations in which such agents are embedded. Early on Sartre favoured the former, while Beauvoir and Sartre in his later writings looked primarily toward the latter. I argue that Merleau-Ponty outlines yet another source of failure that ought to change our understanding of and expectations for what can be done to address some kinds of failure at the moral and institutional level. I argue that there is a collective body for Merleau-Ponty that influences collective intentions and actions in much the same way as the individual body, and that some persistent types of social and political failure can be explained by this dynamic. Seriality and the Crisis of Democracy. Taking Sartre into Democratic Theory Matthias Lievens (KU Leuven) Democracy is in crisis, but democratic theory is struggling to conceptually grasp this crisis and establish the theoretical conditions of its critique. As they tend to consider the market as an 'external' factor, important democratic theorists fail to theoretically account for the disciplining effects of markets and for the way this discipline is internalised within democratic institutions. Sartre's notions of the practico-inert and seriality, and his accounts of the market and the state in the Critique of Dialectical Reason are crucial tools to address this gap in democratic theory. Sartre's relation to democracy is ambiguous: a staunch critic of existing democratic regimes, he nevertheless defends the democratic ideal. This paper proposes the integration of important themes from his Critique into democratic theory. Starting from a Sartrean critique of Claude Lefort's account of representative democracy, including the latter's defence of elections as a re-enactment of the democratic revolution, the paper aims to show how Sartre's triadic social ontology underpinning his concept of the group can significantly contribute to post-foundational democratic theory. Moreover, drawing a distinction between market seriality, which is centreless and transfinite, and the type seriality characterising the democratic state, which has a visible and therefore contestable centre, it opens a way for a Sartrean defence of democratic institutions. Room 2: 9.30 \u2013 10.50 Mindfulness After Existentialism: Through the Mind's Eye Ruth Kitchen, EHESS, Paris The paper traces mindfulness techniques, specifically, the experience of being in the body and the world, to their unacknowledged root in existentialist and phenomenological theory. After outlining some mindfulness techniques, applications and therapeutic benefits, the paper will put into conversation some of the negative\/disturbing effects of mindfulness with existential accounts of being in the world, being in the body, and being with others. The paper will examine the reasons for a negative rather than affirmative reaction to this experience. Secondly, the analysis turns to the question of seeing the self in the world and being seen. According to KabatZinn, professor of medicine and inventor of the mindfulness technique, a meditative exploration of each sense enables an engagement with being in the world and in the body. For Kabat-Zinn, sight has a privileged place in language and metaphor. The discussion examines how Sartre's mental images along with Merleau-Ponty's theory of seeing\/being, and Sartre and Beauvoir's understandings of being seen foreshadow Kabat-Zinn's treatment of the sense of sight. Finally, the paper considers how mindfulness therapies may differ in application and reception for people with a sensory disability, such as deafness. The paper examines potential implications on seeing self \/ being seen \/ being in the world.

However, while the seasonal changes in fruit-to-bunch (F\/B) on a mean monthly basis over years were significant, there were no comparable significant changes in the other bunch component ratios. There was some evidence based on changes in single fruit weight and fruit number that the changes in F\/B might be due to variation in pollination efficiency. The variation in mesocarp weight per bunch was attributable to variation in both the oil and water contents with little change in the fibre. Similarly, within the nut, the larger shell component tended to vary more than the kernel. The contribution of bunch weight variation to the variation in total yield and its relationship to bunch number are discussed. unexpected in view of the negative long-term correlation between bunch number and single bunch weight that is almost invariably seen during the ageing of oil palm, with bunch weights increasing while bunch numbers decline (e.g. Corley and Gray, 1976). Similar antagonism between bunch weight and number is also apparent in manipulative experiments (e.g. Corley and Breure, 1992). Thus, following disbudding, the consequent reduction in bunch number results in a subsequent increase in bunch weight, while with improved pollination, the increase in bunch weight is associated with a reduction in bunch number. In addition to changes in bunch weight per se, there can also be changes in bunch composition, either associated with, or independent of, the weight","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":82769649,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"304211888","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"NEW YORK FRUIT QUARTERLY . VOLUME 19 . NUMBER 4 . WINTER 2011 21 \"Apple fruit are susceptible to a range of physiological disorders that develop during storage. The erratic behavior of these disorders, often due to the effects of growing season, means that the industry faces the potential loss of fruit each year. In an international project funded by the USDA Specialty Crops Research Initiative we aim to develop diagnostic tools for the industry that will predict and determine progress of several disorders.\" Depending on the variety, apple fruit are susceptible to many types of physiological disorders. These disorders can be associated with either air storage, controlled atmosphere (CA) storage, or both, and can occur early or later in storage depending on the disorder. Most storage disorders also are affected by growing season. For instance, higher risk of superficial scald development is typically associated with hot dry summers, while higher risk of 'Empire' flesh browning is typically associated with cooler summer growing conditions. Remarkably little is known about the biochemical factors that are responsible for the different disorders. To address this lack of information about disorders, we have assembled an international team to develop a diagnostic \"toolbox\" that can be used to manage postharvest necrotic disorders. The objective of the project is to use new technologies to find hidden changes in apple fruit chemistry or \"biomarkers\" that can be used to: 1. Predict risk of disorder development in fruit at harvest; 2. Determine disorder development during storage so that storage operators can respond by modifying storage management, or by marketing fruit before losses become severe; 3. Diagnose disorders after they occur, as many disorders can look similar and are difficult to differentiate from one another after storage. The overall goal is develop cost effective risk assessment and diagnostic tools that will be used by industry, which could conceivably be anything from tests that can be performed by agricultural service laboratories, similar to having mineral analysis performed, to those that can be utilized in the field, packing shed, or supply chain like dip-stick tests or on-line analyzers. The project is funded by the USDA Specialty Crops Research Initiative, with matching funds from AgroFresh, the Washington Tree Fruit Research Commission, Cornell University, the Boyce Thompson Institute, the New Zealand Institute for Plant and Food Research, and KU Leuven, Belgium. The project also has industry stakeholders who are charged with providing an advisory role.

It seems that Panofsky had been invited to give a lecture at a major northeastern museum (the Wadsworth Athenaeum, I believe) and the curator, in making conversation with the iconographer, said, \"Oh, this is great. You will be able to see our masterpiece by Piero di Cosimo, about which you have written so perceptively.\" Replied a straight-faced Panofsky, \"Why should I have to see the painting? I've got a photograph of it right here.\" In class, this was meant as a parable about the perils of the iconographic method and the folly of neglecting the actual work of art in favor of text-based methodologies that attempt to disengage the image from the object. But to me the anecdote always seemed to cast an unfavorable light on the archaic, object-based character of the museum. In my reading, it was the curator who was really the butt of the joke, since he was too bound to the art object to see its real meaning and was, apparently, insufficiently versed in contemporary theory. Hence, this was an allegory about the museum's lack-a lack of iconography. As it happens, many museum curators of Panofsky's day actually prided themselves on suppressing precisely the sort of subject matter and interpretation that iconography seeks to analyze. Until recently, in fact, most museums insisted on a decidedly neutral, even \"scientific,\" approach to the study, connoisseurship, classification, and preservation of artifacts, no matter how arbitrary their collecting techniques might have been.

+{"text":"This new study is intended to challenge traditional ways of reading Plato by showing that his philosophy and political theory cannot be understood apart from a consideration of the literary or aesthetic features of his writing. More specifically, it shows how Plato's well-known cosmological dialogues - the Phaedrus and the Timaeus-Critias - are structured using several books of the Odyssey as their common source text. While there has been some scholarly discussion of the relation between \"poetry\" and \"philosophy\" in Plato's dialogues, very little of it addresses questions central to thorough going literary criticism. Planinc's work is unique in that it shows the significance of Plato's extensive refiguring of key episodes in the Odyssey for an interpretation of his philosophy and political theory. Plato's cosmological dialogues are almost always discussed in a topical manner. The Timaeus is picked through for its theological or scientific doctrines; the Critias is reduced to its Atlantis story, or puzzled over because of its ostensible incompleteness; and the Phaedrus is found interesting because of its parallels to modern understandings of erotics or rhetoric. The dialogues are generally not considered in relation to one another, and then only in the context of developmental schemes primarily concerned with distinguishing periods in Plato's metaphysical doctrines. By exploring the full range of the many charming and intriguing things these dialogues present, Planinc treats them as a coherent, unified part of Plato's corpus. The author argues that the main literary features of the Phaedrus, Timaeus, and Critias are taken from Books VI to IX of the Odyssey, the largest part of the story of Odysseus' stay with the Phaeacians, from the time he swims to shore and encounters Nausicaa to the time he reveals his identity and begins recounting his earlier travels after hearing Demodocus's songs. Plato through Homer is not intended to challenge traditional scholarship for the sake of novelty. It is a new approach to Plato's texts that illuminates their literary and philosophic significance and highlights their enduring appeal.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":169135111,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"384103320","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.5860\/choice.41-3984","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Two improvements in heat-transfer design have been investigated with a view toward increasing the efficiency of refrigerators used to liquefy gases. The improvements could contribute to the development of relatively inexpensive, portable oxygen liquefiers for medical use. A description of the heat-transfer problem in a pulse-tube refrigerator is prerequisite to a meaningful description of the first improvement. In a pulse-tube refrigerator in particular, one of in-line configuration heat must be rejected from two locations: an aftercooler (where most of the heat is rejected) and a warm heat exchanger (where a small fraction of the total input power must be rejected as heat). Rejection of heat from the warm heat exchanger can be problematic because this heat exchanger is usually inside a vacuum vessel. When an acoustic-inertance tube is used to provide a phase shift needed in the pulse-tube cooling cycle, another problem arises: Inasmuch as the acoustic power in the acoustic-inertance tube is dissipated over the entire length of the tube, the gas in the tube must be warmer than the warm heat exchanger in order to reject heat at the warm heat exchanger. This is disadvantageous because the increase in viscosity with temperature causes an undesired increase in dissipation of acoustic energy and an undesired decrease in the achievable phase shift. Consequently, the overall performance of the pulse-tube refrigerator decreases with increasing temperature in the acoustic-inertance tube. In the first improvement, the acoustic-inertance tube is made to serve as the warm heat exchanger and to operate in an approximately isothermal condition at a lower temperature, thereby increasing the achievable phase shift and the overall performance of the refrigerator. This is accomplished by placing the acoustic-inertance tube inside another tube and pumping a cooling fluid (e.g., water) in the annular space between the tubes. Another benefit of this improvement is added flexibility of design to locate the warm heat-rejection components outside the vacuum vessel. The second improvement is the development of a compact radial-flow condenser characterized by a very high heat transfer coefficient and a small pressure drop.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":93168363,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"808880800","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Isocitrate lyase (EC 18.104.22.168) has been demonstrated in crude dialyzed extracts of healthy spinach (Spinacia oleracea) leaves from commercial sources and wheat (Triticum aestivum) and maize (Zea mays) leaves stored in darkness in the cold room for 1 week. The products of the reaction were identified as glyoxylate and succinate, the former by its phenylhydrazone, and the latter traced by isotopic labeling and cochromatography. Fresh spinach extracts contain a mixture of at least two endogenous inhibitors of isocitrate lyase activity and one of them is proteinaceous. The endogenous inhibitor(s) is thermostable and retains 50% of its inhibitory effect even after boiling for 10 minutes. Dark starvation of the leaves removes the inhibition, due possibly to autolysis of the inhibitor(s). The inhibitor(s) can also be removed by filtration through Sephadex gels. The crude extract from spinach shows double pH optima in phosphate buffer at pH 7.4 and pH 8.0. The apparent Km at pH 7.4 was 0.1 mM. Oxaloacetate, DL-malate, succinate, 3-phosphoglycerate, and glycolate at 10 mM concentration inhibited, but ribulose 1, 5-diphosphate activated enzymic activity. Isocitrate lyase (EC 4. 1 .3. 1) catalyzes the reaction isocitrate < glyoxylate + succinate and has been reported to be widely distributed (26). Isocitrate has been demonstrated in crude extracts of various unicellular algae when forced to grow on acetate as the sole carbon source (10, 11). However, substantial activity has been observed in photoautotrophically grown algae with CO2 as the sole carbon source (2, 3, 7, 12, 27). Harrop and Kornberg (12) suggested that the presence of isocitrate lyase in autotrophic green algae would not necessarily implicate the operation of glyoxylate cycle to replenish the C4 acids as in algae or bacteria grown on acetate (14), since these acids could arise by the \/8-carboxylation of phosphoenolpyruvate. This was supported further by the reports of Foo et al. (7) and Badour and Waygood (2). Isocitrate lyase is present in glyoxysomes of fatty seedlings (8, 13, 15, 16, 19) but is considered to be lost during growth and maturation (4, 5, 24). Isocitrate lyase activity has not been detected in green leaves (5), and the assumption of its absence seems plausible, since there has been no metabolic indication of its presence in green leaves (17, 18). The enzyme could be induced continuously in autotrophic 'This work was supported by Grants-in-Aid (A2698 and A6720) from the National Research Council of Canada. Chiorella solely by placing the cells in the dark (3). Recently, Foo et al. (7) have shown that glycolate, 3-phosphoglycerate, and oxaloacetate are powerful inhibitors of isocitrate lyase from photoautotrophically grown Chlamydomonas segnis (Gloeomonas sp.). Inhibition of photosynthesis in C. segnis by DCMU (1) led to a 2-fold increase in the level of isocitrate lyase as compared with photosynthesizing cells, whereas in PHMS -treated cells where glycolate accumulates, the enzyme level is substantially decreased. These results suggested a re-examination of the enzyme in green leaves, since in actively photosynthesizing green leaves isocitrate, lyase may be present but may be undetected in crude extracts with a relatively high concentration of photosynthetic metabolites. MATERIALS AND METHODS All plants were grown in the greenhouse with the exception of spinach (Spinacea oleracea) which was obtained from the local market. Healthy, turgid green leaves with no visible infection or disease were used throughout. Commercial spinach leaves were surface sterilized by repeated washing in sterile distilled water and homogenized in a Waring Blendor under sterile conditions.

Approximately 0.5 g of acid-washed sand was added to the mortar to facilitate grinding. The filtrate, after passing through four layers of cheesecloth, was centrifuged at 35,000g for 30 min, and the clear supernatant was used for assay or for further purification. Alternately, bulk quantities of commercial spinach leaves were passed through a vegetable juice extractor and an equal volume of 0.1 M KH2PO, buffer at pH 7.3 was added to the juice. This extract was then centrifuged at 35,000g for 30 min, and the clear supernatant was used for assay or for further purification. An aliquot of the clear supernatant (crude homogenate) obtained in the previous step was routinely dialyzed overnight (12-16 hr) against 40 vol of TEM buffer and assayed. The supernatant was fractionated with solid (NH4)-S04 between the limits of 40 to 60% saturation, and the protein was suspended in a minimum volume of TEM buffer, pH 7.3, containing 10 mm dithiothreitol.

Zircon U\u2013Pb data demonstrate that the quartz porphyry, dacitic porphyry, and quartz dioritic porphyry formed at \u02dc172.2 \u00b1 0.4 Ma, \u02dc171.7 \u00b1 0.5 Ma, and \u02dc170.9 \u00b1 0.3 Ma, respectively. Inherited zircon cores show significant age spreads from \u02dc730 to \u02dc1390 Ma. Geochemically, they are high-K calc-alkaline or shoshonitic rocks with arc-like trace element patterns. They have similar whole-rock Nd and zircon Hf isotopic compositions, yet an increasing trend in \u03f5Nd(t) and \u03f5Hf(t) values typifies the suite. Older (inherited) zircons of the three porphyries display Hf compositions comparable to those of the Jiangnan Orogen basement rocks. In situ zircon oxygen isotopic analyses reveal that they have similar oxygen isotopic compositions, which are close to those of mantle zircons. Moreover, a decreasing trend of \u03b418O values is present.

We simulate the realistic three-dimensional (3D) magnetic field using the data from the photospheric magnetic field measurements and assume the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) Alfv\u00e9n wave turbulence and its nonlinear dissipation to be the only source for heating the coronal plasma and driving the solar wind. In closed-field regions, the dissipation efficiency in a balanced turbulence is enhanced. In the coronal holes, we account for a reflection of the outward-propagating waves, which is accompanied by the generation of weaker counterpropagating waves. The nonlinear cascade rate degrades in strongly imbalanced turbulence, thus resulting in colder coronal holes. The distinctive feature of the presented model is the description of the low corona as almost-steady-state low-beta plasma motion and heat flux transfer along the magnetic field lines. We trace the magnetic field lines through each grid point of the lower boundary of the global corona model, chosen at some heliocentric distance, R = Rb \u223c 1.1R\u2299, well above the transition region.

+{"text":"Inhibition of DNA methylation by 5-azacytidine (azacitidine) has been shown to alter the natural course of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). Treatment with azacitidine is superior to supportive care, with an improved quality of life. Whether this is accomplished by re-expression of silenced genes in vivo has not yet been shown. The promoter of the CDKN2B gene, encoding p15 INK4b , is commonly hypermethylated in MDS and this is linked to disease progression and poor prognosis. Patients with transfusion dependent MDS were treated under the NIH compassionate use protocol at King's College Hospital with ethical approval and informed consent. Patients were studied for clinical response to azacitidine and associated changes in promoter methylation of the CDKN2B, CDKN1A and TP73 genes associated with cell cycle progression was investigated by methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction (MS-PCR). 17 patients (Male n=13 and Female n=4), with a mean age of 64 years (median 67 years, range 51\u201381 years), predominantly high risk MDS (FAB: RA, 5q-(n=2), RAEB1 (n=7), RAEB-2 (n=7), AML (n=1)) underwent treatment with at least one cycle of azacitidine (range 1\u20138 cycles of treatment). Patients previously treated with cytokines (n=2), Farnesyl transferase Inhibitor (Zarnestra n=2) and standard chemotherapy for AML or MDS (n=4) were included in the study. 1 patient (RA 5q-) withdrew after 1 cycle of treatment without adverse event and was not included in the evaluation of efficacy. Azacitidine was administered subcutaneously at 75mg\/m 2 daily for 7 days every 28 days. Dose reduction by 50% was made for prolonged neutropenia. Bone marrow aspirates and trephines were evaluated after at least one cycle of treatment to assess reponse and for methylation studies. Response was assessed using the International standard working group criteria for MDS (Cheson et al) and six of sixteen patients had a response (37.5%). Complete remission (cytogenetic with loss of 47XX, +8) was seen in one patient and haematological improvement (HI) in five patients. HI-Platelets occurred in 5 patients (major n=3, minor n=2). Median time to a platelet response was 46.5 days (28\u201384 days) with a mean increase in platelet count of 78.6X10 9 . This was maintained for a mean of 64.75 days (28\u2013115 days). HI-Haemoglobin occured in 1 patient (accompanied by HI-P major), duration 9.5 months. HI -neutrophils occurred in 1 patient. Blast count was 11% mean (0\u201330%) pre treatment and reduced to 4%(0\u201314%) post treatment. In 5 patients this was preceded by HI-P, in one patient blast count decreased with worsening cytopenias. Four patients had stable disease and 6 patients failed treatment with either transformation to AML or death (acute pulmonary oedema n=1, GI bleed n=1). Methylation of the CDKN2B, CDKN1A, and TP73 promoters in CD34+, CD33+ and CD34-\/CD33- cells were analysed by MS-PCR in 14 patients pre and 7 patients post treatment. At best clinical response, CDKN2B was demethylated in at least one cell fraction in 3\/7 and TP73 in 1\/7. Conterintuitively, CDKN1A became methylated whilst on treatment in 3\/7 cases.

Collectively, these molecules are well established to be involved in the proliferation, differentiation, and survival of the various types of lymphoid cells that constitute the mammalian immune Their pleiotropic biologic activities, however, extend well beyond cell types associated with the immune system and include control over a diverse array of cellular and physiologic processes that occur in many distinct tissues and organ systems of the body.',2 Age, stress, autoimmune diseases, and many infectious agents create conditions that can subvert normal host defenses through their capacity to detrimentally remodel the host's highly coordinated cytokine network by effectively altering either the production of or the cellular responses to these protein molecules. Some of these conditions can actually elicit, without exogenous stimulation, a constitutive production of certain cytokine species by hyperactive lymphoid cells. This dysregulation in gene expression results in constant exposure of all cytokine responsive cells within the vicinity of the cytokine-producing cells to the modulatory activities of the abnormally produced and secreted molecules. Dysregulations in cytokine production, therefore, can lead to an altered state of cellular reactivity to exogenous agents or antigens and may result in a lowered capacity to elicit protective types of immune and inflammatory effector responses. Overexpression of some cytokines may also lead to increased autoantibody production which may ultimately proceed to the development of autoimmune disease.

The HCO+ and CS spectra show clear self-reversed and asymmetric profiles across the face of the globule. The sense of the observed asymmetry is indicative of the global presence of expansion motions in the outer layers of the globule. These motions appear to be subsonic and significantly below the escape velocity of the globule. Comparison of our observations with near-infrared extinction data indicate that the globule is gravitationally bound. Taken together, these considerations lead us to suggest that the observed expansion has its origin in an oscillatory motion of the outer layers of the globule, which itself is likely in a quasi-stable state near hydrostatic equilibrium. Analysis of the observed line widths of C18O and N2H+ (J = 1 \u2192 0) confirm that thermal pressure is the dominant component of the cloud's internal support. A simple calculation suggests that the dominant mode of pulsation would be an l = 2 mode with a period of ~3 \u00d7 105 yr. Deformation of the globule due to the large amplitude l = 2 oscillation may be responsible for the double-peaked structure of the core detected in high-resolution extinction maps. Detailed comparison of the molecular-line observations and extinction data provides evidence for significant depletion of C18O and perhaps HCO+, while N2H+ (J = 1 \u2192 0) may be undepleted to a cloud depth of ~40 mag of visual extinction.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":15884757,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2042201210","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1086\/519272","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":"0705.0330"},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/iopscience.iop.org\/article\/10.1086\/519272\/pdf","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"ABSTRACT Patients with obstructive airway diseases (OAD), like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma, may be at increased risk of pertussis infection. Pertussis may also trigger COPD and asthma exacerbations. Vaccination against pertussis could help protect OAD patients from the additional burden of pertussis, but there may be hesitancy related to vaccine safety and immunogenicity in such patients. We performed a meta-analysis on 5 clinical trials in adults receiving reduced-antigen tetanus-diphtheria-acellular pertussis vaccine (Tdap, Boostrix, GSK), from which we selected participants on active OAD treatment. We compared immunogenicity and reactogenicity outcomes of the meta-analysis with data from the overall populations of Tdap-vaccinated adults from 6 Tdap trials (including the 5 in the meta-analysis). The meta-analysis comprised 222 adults on active standard OAD treatment. One month post-Tdap, 89.0% and 97.2% of these adults, respectively, achieved seroprotective anti-diphtheria and anti-tetanus antibody concentrations; 78.3%\u201396.1% showed booster responses across the 3 pertussis antigens. These rates were consistent with those in the comparator population. The most frequently reported solicited local and systemic adverse events within 4\u2009days post-Tdap were injection site pain (47.7%) and fatigue (19.3%), with low rates of grade 3 intensity (0.9% and 2.8%). This was consistent with Tdap reactogenicity in the comparator population. Evaluation of unsolicited and serious adverse events within 1\u2009month post-Tdap did not identify safety concerns. In conclusion, Tdap was immunogenic and well tolerated in adults under active standard OAD treatment, with immunogenicity and safety profiles consistent with those in a comparator population representing the general adult population. Plain Language Summary Whooping cough is a very contagious respiratory disease that is most dangerous for young babies but can affect people of all ages. People with chronic lung diseases like asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) may be more likely to get ill and suffer from complications from whooping cough. Vaccination against whooping cough is an important way to help protect these people. However, some doctors may hesitate to vaccinate patients because they may worry that vaccination could worsen asthma or COPD symptoms or that drugs taken by these patients could make vaccines work less well. We therefore looked at the immunogenicity and safety of a whooping cough vaccine (Boostrix, GSK) in adults treated for chronic lung diseases like asthma or COPD. We analyzed data from 5 previous clinical studies and specifically selected data from patients taking standard medication for chronic lung diseases in these studies. We found that the immune response to whooping cough vaccination in these patients was comparable to that in a comparator group representative of the general adult population receiving Boostrix. The vaccine was as well tolerated in patients with chronic lung diseases as in the general adult population. Our results suggest that the whooping cough vaccine Boostrix can be safely given to adults taking standard medication for chronic lung diseases to help prevent severe illness and complications from whooping cough.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":256630075,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1080\/21645515.2022.2159731","PubMedCentral":"9980557","ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYNCND","url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1080\/21645515.2022.2159731","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The authors have developed a new method for detecting position and direction in the weld zone of steel structures such as oil storage tanks and bridges without removing their anticorrosion paint. The method uses a special eddy current probe and detects the position and direction by utilizing the difference of electromagnetic characteristics between the base material and the heat affected zone. The probe comprises two large tangential excitation coils wound orthogonally around each other and a small pancake detecting coil. The excitation coils induce uniform eddy current rotating its direction synchronizing to the alternating excitation current. The signal amplitude from the probe provides information on its position in the weld zone and the signal phase indicates the direction of the probe. Thus, the probe generates the weld signal to effectively follow the weld line in steel structures. The experimental results have shown that the proposed method is promising because the probe provides clear weld signals with little noise and the change of the probe lift\u2010off from the material causes little variation in the signal. \u00a9 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

+{"text":"Study aimed to present the role and scope of regional cultural policy, by examining the legal and institutional plans for the roles of central and local governments regarding regional cultural promotion. Recently, the imbalance in the area of culture has been deepened between regions, and regional culture has been devastated by drastic modernization and the government's promotion of an unbalanced growth policy. Accordingly, the \"Bill for Regional Culture Promotion\" was introduced in May 2006 to raise regional competitiveness and the quality of life of residents in various regions, by supporting the development of region-specific culture. Correct implementation of the Bill, however, requires the realization of several prerequisites, such as the principle of the initiative of local government, the clarification of the relationship between this law and existing laws, the expansion of financial support and the concretization of institutional support measures, the principle of citizen participation and autonomy, the establishment of organizations and mechanisms for regional cultural promotion, and the closing of the cultural gap between regions. The tasks for regional cultural promotion can be divided into short-and long-term tasks in terms of time frame, and into central and local government tasks in terms of subject. In the short term, the central government should narrow the cultural gap between regions through selective support based on consideration of the financial and cultural conditions of each region. In the long term, it should help each region to secure cultural diversity, not by evaluating regional cultural policy merely in uniform and metrical terms, but by strengthening its role as a partner for the revitalization of regional culture. Each local government should make efforts not only to preserve regional culture and satisfy the immediate cultural needs of residents, but also to move the center of regional culture into its own sphere in the long run by expanding the specialized workforce, facilities and financial resources. Regional cultural capacity is closely related to citizens' cultural capacity, so institutional frameworks should be created to consolidate the cultural capabilities of citizens as enjoyers of culture and the arts.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":153175162,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1509505718","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"The most recent version of the IEEE 802.11 standard, 802.11-2012 has extended the means of clock synchronization for wireless LANs. One of the mechanisms in the standard is called timing advertisement (TA). It involves calculating and maintaining the time offset with respect to the timing synchronization function (TSF) timer of the access point (AP). In the wireless stations, the TSF-based synchronization mechanism and the offset is combined to establish synchronization to an external timebase. However, such a method provides only loose synchronization unless the skew estimate between the external time source and the TSF timer of the AP is also conveyed to the nodes in the network, for which the standard provides no support. This study, in turn, provides another method, which is called SyncTSF, in which the external clocks at the AP and the nodes are synchronized to their respective TSF timers. Through analysis and measurements, it is shown that both SyncTSF and TA-based synchronization are limited by the frequency skews between the TSF timers of the AP and the nodes. Hence, for these methods to offer good synchronization accuracy, a mechanism to distribute frequency skews from the AP to the nodes should be provided.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":7852738,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2026736454","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/ISPCS.2014.6948529","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The exponential growth of IoT devices on the Internet, results in a lot of challenges because the current Internet was not necessarily designed to cater for resource constrained devices. There is, therefore, a need to investigate an alternative Internet architecture that will take into account such device limitations and quantities. Named Data Networking (NDN) has been shown to be one of those architectures. Preliminary studies so far show that NDN has more advantages over the current TCP\/IP architecture. NDN has forwarding strategies\/ schemes that are essentially rules that tell NDN nodes how to forward interests and data packets from consumers to producers and back. This study aims to evaluate some of the forwarding strategies available in NDN, that is, best route, broadcast, multicast, and client-control strategy in different topologies that are star, mesh, ring, and a hybrid topology composed by mesh and star topology.

Estimating the internal equivalent circuit model (ECM) parameters of a battery, such as the internal open circuit voltage, battery resistance and relaxation parameters, is a crucial requirement in BMSs.

However, existing approaches consider ECM identification as a joint estimation problem that estimates the state of charge together with the ECM parameters. In this paper, an approach is presented to decouple the problem into ECM identification alone. Using the proposed approach, the internal open circuit voltage and the ECM parameters can be estimated without requiring the knowledge of the state of charge of the battery.

+{"text":"Medial patellar luxation is one of the most common orthopedic disorders in dogs, especially in small breed dogs. It is, in most cases, a developmental disorder associated with skeletal deformities and malalignment of the extensor mechanism. Patellar luxation is classified into four grades, see Table 2. Surgical treatment is composed of bone reconstructive techniques and soft tissue reconstructive techniques and is often performed in dogs with patellar luxation grade 2-4. The most common complications after surgery are patellar reluxation and implant related complications, according to previous studies. In many studies, an increased risk of complications has been associated with the severity of the luxation. In most previous studies assessing the outcome of surgery, the objective has been the short-term outcome. Owner questionnaires that evaluate surgical outcome, compare treatment methods, assess chronic pain, function and quality of life has recently been used in several studies with dogs affected by orthopedic diseases. \n \nThe purpose of this thesis is to evaluate complications, the long-term outcome and the quality of life in dogs treated surgically for medial patellar luxation. The purpose is also to analyze if there exist any factors that affect the complication rate and the long-term quality of life. Retrospective data such as patellar grade, surgical methods, complications, and bilateral or unilateral disease, have been recorded from the medical records of 45 dogs treated surgically for medial patellar luxation at the University Animal Hospital in Uppsala year 2012-2015. In this study, owners of the surgically treated dogs answered an online questionnaire regarding their dog's stiffness, function, lameness, and quality of life in October-November 2017. The answers were converted into a score. To assess the quality of life in the surgically treated dogs, the answers and the total scoring of the questionnaire has been compared with the answers of a control group composed of dogs without any orthopaedic disease. \n \nThe total postoperative complication frequency within one year was 31.7% among the cases with available medical data (41 out of 49 cases). Gastrointestinal symptoms were the most common complication. All dog owners in the case group who answered the questionnaire (29 out of 45) except one rated their dog's comfort to be better today than before the surgery, but some dogs still experience discomfort. Most of the surgically treated dogs had a good or acceptable score on the questionnaire, but there was a significant difference in scoring between the case group and the control group. This finding indicates that even after a successful surgical correction of medial patellar luxation, the expectation cannot be to regain equal mobility and function in the stifle joint compared to a dog without any orthopedic disorder. There was a great variation in total scoring among the surgically treated dogs, but the reason for this variation could not be concluded. Lameness was the most common problem for the surgically treated dogs according to the owners. Mobility and function were also affected but to a lower extent. The dogs' mood, willingness to participate in play, vocalization, and quality of life seems to be comparable between surgically treated dogs and dogs without any orthopedic disorder. Further research is needed to study the factors that could affect the long-term outcome, quality of life and lameness in surgically treated dogs.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":81420633,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2883389203","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In 2006, the National Marine Fisheries Service listed the southern distinct population segment of North American Green Sturgeon as threatened under the Endangered Species Act. Federally designated critical habitat for the southern distinct population segment of Green Sturgeon does not extend upstream of the San Joaquin River's confluence with the Stanislaus River. We recently confirmed an adult Green Sturgeon holding in a deep pool near Knights Ferry, California in the Stanislaus River. We observed and recorded the fish using a GoPro\u00ae video camera and used environmental deoxyribonucleic acid sampling techniques to confirm species identification. This paper provides the first confirmed record of Green Sturgeon in any tributary of the San Joaquin River, which is beyond the designated critical habitat area. Future well-designed research focused on the San Joaquin River and its tributaries is expected to improve our understanding regarding the importance of these rivers for the various life stages of North American Green Sturgeon.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":91433662,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2890155668","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3996\/012018-JFWM-006","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"This article uses numeric and qualitative data to interrogate the impact of affirmative action policies on shattering glass ceilings and resolving impasse in the academic lives of African Americans. This work takes its trajectory from previous research on glass ceilings (Marina and Fonteneau, 2012). Two brief case studies from both PWIs and HBCUs are mentioned to ponder complex attitudes toward race, gender and power. In extracting meaning from the policies, practices, and cases, it became clear that attitudes toward power and authority are influenced by context, but even more, by an individual's sense of right and wrong. This work is heavily vested in the African American woman' s social and professional mobility, the very nature by which African Americans have gained presence in academic environments. This work suggests that affirmative action policies and institutional systems of redress have had little effect on resolving impasse and career gridlock. The concept of \"glass ceilings\" as a site where insurmountable professional limitations appear, and are confronted, but not overcome, is well documented in American popular culture and industrial society. Glass ceilings, as a place of \"impasse\" where spatial dimensions embedded in institutional infrastructures do not allow a positive turn, ascent, nor going forward, are multidimensional in expression. Historically, African American women have faced glass ceilings in terms of tenure, promotion, inclusion, as well as increasing rank, and status in post-tenure scenarios. When institutional structures combine with intersectional biases such as race, class, gender, and color, some African American women fail to gain professional and economic ascendancy. At other times, psychic pain, part of the fallout from having to confront and challenge glass ceilings, can have a paralyzing effect on careers. Finally, in the larger public view, African American women are impacted by ascendancy issues in regard to negative perceptions of their social and moral character. In the latter case, I advance a position that scholars have failed to make critical connections between socio-economic impasse and African American women's professional engagement with glass ceilings in the academy. Gridlock in the socio-economic space of African American women's lives is often mirrored in their professional and academic ambitions and vice versa. Neither higher education nor political discourse has freed African American women from effects of negative stereotyping, and professional stasis. This article reveals that legal approaches have not closed socio-economic gaps for African American women or dismantled glass ceilings that bar her progression in the academy. I use an approach grounded in moral philosophy to expose the infrastructure of systems that keep African American women in the sub-strata while privileging those who burden her with stigma from the inimitable slave past. Moral philosophy takes into account errors of knowledge and moral failure\u2014both of which refer to rational beings\u2014 as barriers to resolving deadlock.

Public demand and preferences for different modes of travel can be identified through it. This paper gives a detail description about mode choice behavior of the people for the selected para-transit modes like rickshaw, auto-rickshaw, cycle and Emma. This also aims to explore public preference for using bicycle over other para-transit modes in Rajshahi city of Bangladesh. Bicycle is an environmental friendly vehicle. As a mode of transportation bicycle has many advantages for cyclists as well as society as a whole. Primary and secondary data was collected for analyzing some factors regarding the particular mode choice. Primary data was collected through household survey, Origin-Destination survey and stated preference survey. Household survey is used for demographic information, O-D survey is used for making trip diary and stated preference survey is used for taking public preference for introducing bicycle. Questionnaire survey has been conducted in the selected locations named Talaimari, Sheroil and Shaheb Bazar in Rajshahi city. Microsoft Excel software is used for some simple statistical data analysis and SPSS software is used for multinomial logistic analysis. A total of five variables were considered in the model estimation of which are quantitative such as Travel cost, Access time, Egress time, Waiting time and In-Vehicle time. From the analysis it is found that the utility and probability for using bicycle is higher among the various modes of transportation. It is also found that people demand bicycle infrastructure such as bicycle lane, secure parking, improved connection, better intersection etc. for safe and comfortable cycling system. The findings indicate that the majority of the people prefers to use bicycle for travelling.

+{"text":"Context. Thermal X-ray spectra of clusters of galaxies and other sources are commonly calculated assuming Maxwellian electron distributions. There are situations where this approximation is not valid, for instance near interfaces of hot and cold gas and near shocks. Aims. The presence of non-thermal electrons affects the X-ray spectrum. To study the role of these electrons in clusters and other environments, an efficient algorithm is needed to calculate the X-ray spectra. Methods. We approximate an arbitrary electron distribution by the sum of Maxwellian components. The decomposition uses either a genetic algorithm or an analytical approximation. The X-ray spectrum is then evaluated with a linear combination of those Maxwellian components. Results. Our method is fast and leads to an accurate evaluation of the spectrum. The Maxwellian components allow the use of the standard collisional rates that are available in plasma codes such as SPEX. We give an example of a spectrum for the supra-thermal electron distribution behind a shock in a cluster of galaxies. The relative intensities of the satellite lines in such a spectrum are sensitive to supra-thermal electrons. These lines can only be investigated with high spectral resolution.

+{"text":"Recent studies on Lake Superior suggest that diel vertical migration (DVM) of prey (generalized Coregonus spp.) may be influenced by the density of predatory siscowet (Salvelinus namaycush). We empirically evaluated this hy- pothesis using data from acoustic, midwater trawl, and bottom trawl sampling at eight Lake Superior sites during three seasons in 2005 and a subset of sites in 2006. We expected the larger-bodied cisco (Coregonus artedi) to exhibit a shal- lower DVM compared with the smaller-bodied kiyi (Coregonus kiyi). Although DVM of kiyi and cisco were consistent with expectations of DVM as a size-dependent, predator-mediated process, we found no relationship between siscowet density and the magnitude of DVM of either coregonid. Cisco appear to have a size refuge from siscowet predation. Kiyi and siscowet co-occur in demersal habitat > 150 m during the day, where visual predation is unlikely, suggesting predator avoidance is not a factor in the daytime distribution of kiyi. Seasonal patterns of kiyi DVM were consistent with reported DVM of their primary prey Mysis relicta.

The plates' motions are entirely passive under the force of surrounding fluid.

The mechanisms underlying the plates' motion and flow characteristics are discussed systematically. The adopted algorithm is verified and validated by the simulation of flow past a square flexible plate. The results show that the plate's passive flapping behavior contains transverse and spanwise deformation, and the flapping amplitude is proportional to the aspect ratio. In the side-by-side configuration, three distinct coupling modes of the plates' motion are identified, including single-plate mode, symmetrical flapping mode and decoupled mode. The plate with a lower aspect ratio may suffer less drag force and capture less bending energy than in the isolated situation. The optimized selection for obtaining higher energy conversion efficiency is the plate flapping in single-plate mode, especially the plate with a higher aspect ratio.

+{"text":"Background In humans, Resistance to Thyroid Hormone (RTH) caused by mutations in the thyroid hormone receptor alpha (THRA) gene, RTH\u03b1, manifests as tissue-specific hypothyroidism and circulating thyroid hormone levels that exhibits hypothyroid-like clinical features. Before the identification of patients with RTH\u03b1, several Thr\u03b11 knock-in mouse models were generated to clarify the function of TR\u03b11. However, the phenotypes of these mice were not consistent with the clinical presentation of RTH\u03b1 in humans. For the present study we generated a RTH\u03b1 mouse model that carries the Thra1 E403X mutation found in human RTH\u03b1 patients. Here we report the gross phenotypes of this mouse RTH\u03b1 model. Methods Traditional homologous recombination gene targeting techniques were used to introduce a mutation (Thra1 E403X) in the mouse Thra gene. The phenotypes of the resulting mice were studied and compared to clinical features seen for RTH\u03b1 with THRAE403X. Results Thr\u03b11E403X\/E403X homozygous mice exhibited severe neurological phenotypes, such as spasticity and motor ataxia, which were similar to those observed in endemic cretinism. Thr\u03b11E403X\/+ heterozygous mice reproduced most clinical manifestations of the patient with RTH\u03b1, such as a normal survival rate and male fertility, as well as delayed postnatal growth and development, neurological and motor coordination deficits, and anemia. The mice had typical thyroid function with a modest increase in serum T3 levels, a low of T4\/T3 ratio, and low rT3 levels. Conclusions The Thr\u03b11E403X\/+ mice faithfully recapitulate clinical features of human RTH\u03b1, and thus can provide a useful tool to dissect the role of TR\u03b11 in development and to determine the pathological mechanisms of RTH\u03b1.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":221722525,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3095151105","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1089\/thy.2019.0733","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Irreversible inhibition of AChE may lead to severe pathological conditions such as muscular paralysis, bronchial constriction and even death by asphyxiation. An in-silico approach was employed to study the interaction of AChE with four commonly used OP pesticides namely, methyl parathion, dichlorvos, malathion, chlorpyrifos. AutoDock4.2 and iGEMDOCK and SwissDock are opensource docking tools which were used to form the AChE-OP complex. Further these complexes were explored on their protein-ligand binding affinity along with the mechanism of binding. Based on the results, It was found that chlorpyrifos has the best binding affinity with AChE as compared to the other pesticides. These observation would surely be helpful in development of precautionary antidotes for the people who have direct contact with these poisonous pesticides.

+{"text":"Aim: To assess level of orthodontic outcome literacy in terms of risks and benefits among patients undergoing active treatment. Materials and Methods: Descriptive cross-sectional study at King Abdulaziz University Faculty of Dentistry. Questionnaire was distributed to orthodontic patients using convenient sampling method. Demographics and perceptions of risks and benefits were collected. Descriptive statistics were reported in frequency and percentage. Results: A total of 113 participants from KAUFD orthodontic clinics. Majority were 59% females, 59% children and adolescents and 66% were Saudi. Referrals from 49% dentists, 30% self-referral and 20% parents. The main reason for seeking treatment was 47% esthetics, 27% function and 13% stability. Respondents perceived orthodontic risks as 30% painful, 55% uncomfortable, 43% result in ulcer, 38% cause white spot lesion, 45% caries, 8% root resorption, 11% gingival recession, 38% mobility and 56% relapse while 75% believed in their role in preventing adverse events. They perceived benefits as 94% better smile, 90% better bite, 85% straight teeth, 60% teeth remain straight forever, 90% look better and 78% attractive profile.

Aim: Investigate the presence rate of cellular senescence and expression of cell cycle check points in livers from children with end stage disease. Methodology\/Principal Findings Livers of five children aged three years or less undergoing liver transplantation due to tyrosinemia (n\u200a=\u200a1), biliary atresia (n\u200a=\u200a2), or fulminant hepatitis (n\u200a=\u200a2) were analyzed for senescence associated \u03b2-galactosidase (SA-\u03b2gal) activity and p16INK4a, p21cip1 and p53. All livers displayed positive cellular staining for SA-\u03b2gal in the canals of Hering and interlobular biliary ducts. In the presence of cirrhosis (3\/5 cases) SA-\u03b2gal was found at the cholangioles and hepatocytes surrounding the regenerative nodules. Children with fulminant hepatic failure without cirrhosis had significant ductular transformation with intense SA-\u03b2gal activity. No SA-\u03b2gal activity was evident in the fibrous septa. Staining for p53 had a similar distribution to that observed for SA-\u03b2gal. Staining for p16INK4a and p21cip1 was positive in the explanted liver of the patient with tyrosinemia, in the hepatocytes, the canals of Hering, cholangioles and interlobular bile ducts. In the livers with fulminant hepatitis, p21cip1 staining occurred in the areas of ductular transformation and in the interlobular bile ducts.

Here, we firstly synthesized unique S@Ni\/NiO\/ZnSnO3 microcubes as composite cathodes for Li-S batteries, in which Ni\/NiO films were deposited onto surface of as-prepared ZnSnO3 microcubes via a hydrothermal reaction and later calcinations process. The S@Ni\/NiO\/ZnSnO3 composite showed attractive electrochemical performances with a high initial discharge-specific capacity of 1070 mAh g\u22121. After cycling up to 1000 cycles at 0.5 C, the as-prepared cathode still retained a capacity output of 379 mAh g\u22121 with approximate 0.063% decay rate per cycle, indicating its excellent capacity retention. The excellent improved electrochemical properties of S@Ni\/NiO\/ZnSnO3 composite are attributed mainly to the synergistic effect between an accelerating reaction kinetic and a strong polar adsorption for polysulfides, which are derived from the addition of nickel-based materials and ZnSnO3 into cathodes.

+{"text":"The Ganges-Brahmaputra delta in Bangladesh is the main depocentre for the sediments derived from Himalayan denudation. The delta is positioned at the tectonically active boundaries of the Indian, Asian and Burmese plates. The possibility of severe earthquakes at the subduction zone in eastern Bangladesh is a major geohazard that is poorly quantified. The submarine delta clinoforms with an annual accumulation rate of up 10 cm can be used as an archive for these earthquakes which can liquefy the uppermost sediments in the submarine clinoform wedge. The resulting downslope flow generates homogeneous and distorted sediments that can be used as an indicator for the earthquakes. Based on the recent accumulation rates, the age of the four uppermost disturbed units corresponds to strong earthquakes affecting the plate boundaries of the Bengal Basin at 1762, 1885, 1897, and 1918 or 1950. Thus, the submarine delta contains a valuable archive of the subduction related earthquakes, which could be assessed by shallow hydraulic piston coring. Recovering cores along a series of 50 m-holes at the transition from topset beds to foreset beds can provide overlapping chronologies from which a more than 2000 year-long record of earthquakes can be constructed. This will expand the short historic record and can be used to determine the recurrence rate of these devastating events. Furthermore, climatic changes and anthropogenic influences on vegetation and weathering of the drainage area during the last 2000 years can be investigated. In addition, the river system has had numerous natural shifts and avulsions in historic times that altered the positions of the mouths of the Ganges and Brahmaputra Rivers, with their distinctive mineralogy. Bangladesh is at considerable risk from climate change and rising sea level. A longer record would aid in evaluating future risks. Regional Setting and Previous Work The delta of Bangladesh has been accumulating since the Oligocene on the northwestern border of the Indian plate, which collides northwards with the Asia continent and subsides eastwards under the Burmese plate (Fig.1). Numerous major earthquakes originate along these sutures and are threatening the southern river delta. The historical record of earthquakes is only a few hundred years long and more data are needed for a long-term risk assessment. The rivers Ganges-Brahmaputra annually transport one to two billion tonnes of terrigenous material from the Himalayas to the Bengal deltaic plain. The material reaching the southern delta as bedload or in suspension consists mainly of fine sand, silt and clay. A significant part of this material is deposited in the submarine delta (Michels et al., 1998). Sedimentation rates in the clinoform beds of the submarine prodelta range between 10 and 0.1 cm per year and consequently the prodelta progrades 15 m per year (Michels 1998, Palamenghi submitted). Delta progradation has started 7000 years ago from a position far inland (Goodbred & Kuehl, 2000). Offshore from the present fluvial plain, a 25 km to 100 km broad subtidal plain has accreted in water depths less than 15 m (Fig. 1). With a slope of 0.2 to 0.3 degree the modern front of the submarine delta merges to the middle shelf surface at 80 m water depth mainly covered by relict sediments. In seismic records the prograding submarine delta is formed by clinoforms with distinct topset, foreset and bottomset beds (Fig. 2). Fig.2 N-S echosounder profile across the clinoform beds of the central submarine delta sedimentation rates Fig.1 Sediments vary from fine sand in the topset beds to fine sand plus mud in the forest beds and finally to mud in the bottomset beds. Cm-thick layers of laminated fine sand are interbedded with burrowed dm-thick mud sequences of the foreset beds (Michels, 1998). The mud occasionally contains small shells of bivalves, gastropods and echinoderms. Some sections of the sampled sequence consist of homogenous mud (Kuehl et al. 2005). These sections appear in the seismic profiles as acoustically transparent units (Fig. 2) which are present in the entire submarine delta front, but are more prominent in the eastern parts. The four youngest layers can be laterally traced in the foreset beds over a distance of about 200 km. Their thickness laterally varies rapidly, especially in the upper and lower transition zones of the foreset beds. In profiles normal to the slope, the top of the transparent layers often forms a staircase-like structure in the foreset beds. The layers usually thin in the bottomset beds. These acoustically transparent and homogenous units (TU) are assumed to be caused by highenergy events liquefying the youngest sediments in the foreset beds. The mobilized sediment is assumed to move short distances downslope thus forming the distinct terraces and run-out tongues. The flow distorts and deforms the underlying sediments by overloading and lateral stress producing the irregular shape of the lower boundary. Fig. 3 N-S multichannel seismic profile across the central clinoform of the submarine delta, same position as sediment echosounder profile in Fig. 2 Based on sedimentation rates determined by Pb and Cs chronologies for the last 100 years (Suckow et al. 2001), the layers appear with a average frequency of approximately once every one hundred years and they are much rarer than the tropical cyclones which cross the submarine delta with an average rate of 1.5 event \/y. Consequently, the cyclones can be excluded as the process triggering the flows. In addition, cyclones will not affect the entire submarine delta over a distance of 200 km and the more pronounced appearance of transparent layers in the eastern profiles can also not be explained by cyclones, which mainly hit the centre of the submarine delta. Consequently earthquakes are assumed to be the most evident trigger for the liquefaction and the formation of the transparent units (TUs). TU1, which is most pronounced layer, is most probably caused by the Arakan Earthquake in 1762, which trusted with an 8.8 magnitude the eastern part of the Bengal Shelf (Cummins 2007, Steckler et al, 2008) and thus occurred in the direct neighbourhood of the submarine delta. The extrapolation of the sedimentation rates from the last 50 years approximately confirm the age of this layer with 250 to 300 years before present. TU2 is separated from the TU1 by 4-5 meters of stratified foreset beds corresponding to about 100 years of normal sedimentation. The correlation of the upper TUs is more ambiguous, as no datable cores are available. Taking the short, 50 km distance from the epicentre to the prodelta front, TU2 may assigned to the Manikganj Earthquake (magnitude 7.0) in 1885. 12 years later, the Great India Earthquake in 1897 (8.7 magnitude) affecting the Shillong basement block in northern Bangladesh has probably caused the much smaller TU3, which directly overlies the TU2. Finally the uppermost TU4 is mostly buried by a few meters of foreset beds and therefore could be related to the 7.6 Srimangal Earthquake in 1918 affecting the Sylhet Basin or to the 8.4 Assam Earthquake in 1950. In any case, the sediments of the submarine delta contain a sequence of earthquake-related liquefication deposits, which could be used to study the recurrence rate of major earthquakes for a long-term risk assessment. Especially the older subunit 2 (Fig. 4) contains more transparent layers extending the earthquake record by several hundred years beyond the historical one. Fig. 4 Interpreted seismic profiles across the clinoform of the central submarine delta Expected outcome The recurrence rate of earthquakes along the subduction-collision zone in Bangladesh and northeastern India can be established for the last 2000 years to improve the risk assessment of the delta in Bangladesh. Furthermore the geochemical composition of cored sequences can be used to understand the linkages between late Holocene natural monsoonal dynamics, weathering history, and the expansion of agriculture in the drainage area of the rivers. Steps to achieve the goals Defining drill sites to obtain a continuous record: The acquired seismic multichannel and sediment echosounder data will be used to map the distribution of transparent layers and to define drill sites in the foreset beds with a representative inventory. New high-resolution multichannel seismic profiles would be needed to image the foreset beds buried under the thick cover of the outer sandy topset beds in water depth of about 10 m to 20 m. Drilling the foreset beds to recover a complete record of transparent layers by hydraulic piston coring: Drill sites must be placed in direction of the N-S progradation of the submarine delta with a distance of about 5-10 km in the respective centre of the foreset beds where the transparent layers are best developed. A stacked record of transparent layers combined from a series of 50 m-deep cores is needed to recover the entire inventory. Two profiles each with 4-5 cores in the central and the eastern parts across the outer submarine delta are required to reliably investigate a period of about 2000 years. Dating the transparent layers: Exact dating is a crucial point in this project. C dating of marine shells and of selected terrestrial or marine biomarkers with very short residence time could be a powerful tool. Reading the environmental signals: For the environmental studies of the extraction of marine organic components and their isotopic and compositional analysis could reveal changes in productivity, temperature and salinity. The geochemical composition of the terrigenous fraction will indicate changes of weathering intensity onshore and thus reflect the climatic conditions onshore. Mineralogical, isotopic and elemental signatures will be used to determine shifts in fluvial input. The IODP INVEST proposal by SPIESS et al. to drill the sediments in the shelf canyon contains more details about the environmental targets.

+{"text":"The term \"bank run\" describes the mass withdrawal of funds from a bank by its customers. With cash on hand, the bank might be able to handle the situation. As more consumers pull their money out of the company's bank accounts, the likelihood of the business collapsing increases. Based on this, this paper studies the bank run in game theory. It was found that: within the framework of game theory, this situation might be represented as a \"coordination game,\" the latter being a kind of game with two distinct and stable equilibrium states: If enough people keep their money in the bank, the bank won't be able to default on its responsibilities, thus keeping your money there makes sense. On the other hand, if many customers withdraw their deposits, the bank will collapse, and at that time, it is logical for all of the customers to seek to withdraw their money. To clarify the phenomenon of bank runs, this study will use the Diamond-Dybvig model. This theory holds that a bank's primary function is facilitating long-term loans for investment purposes and short-term deposits.

Methods: Literature search was conducted in PubMed using the keywords - \"tuberculosis\", \"tribals\", \"India\", \"prevalence\", and \"survey\". References cited in the articles retrieved were also reviewed, and those found relevant were selected. TB prevalence rates estimated by the studies were used for our calculation of a pooled-estimate.

The associated heterogeneity measures in terms of Cochran's Q was significant (P=0 0.08 <0.1) and I2 was moderate at 48 per cent. Interpretation & conclusions: The meta-analysis demonstrated a large variability in pulmonary TB prevalence estimates among the different studies with poor representation of the various tribal groups.

+{"text":"In human pluripotent stem cell cultures, differentiation\u2010associated genes are silenced but \"poised\" for expression by bivalent chromatin marks: the concurrent presence of activating (H3K4me3) and repressing (H3K27me3) histone modifications. Here we sought to map this bivalent state across the genome of a subset of heterogeneous cultured human embryonic stem cells; the fraction that expresses the highest amounts of pluripotency\u2010associated factors (hpESCs). To this end, ChIP\u2010Seq was performed for H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 in hpESCs and the heterogeneous culture from which they were purified. Consistent with previous reports, both populations displayed high levels of H3K27me3 at differentiation\u2010associated genes. While H3K4me3 was also abundant at differentiation\u2010associated genes in the heterogeneous culture, this histone modification was generally absent at these genes in hpESCs. Therefore, our findings indicate that hpESCs possess a distinct epigenomic signature that typically lacks bivalent domains and that the repression of differentiation\u2010associated genes is regulated primarily by Polycomb. Collectively, our results strongly suggest that bivalency represents a transitory state between pluripotent and lineage committed cells.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":88356799,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2260342585","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1096\/FASEBJ.24.1_SUPPLEMENT.833.11","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Malaria is a life-threatening parasitic disease endemic throughout the world. Control methods for malaria are becoming less reliable; thus, efforts to develop a safe and effective vaccine are critical. Immunity to malaria requires both cell- and humoral-mediated immunity, CMI and HMI, respectively. CD4+ T cells play a central role in protection against blood stage Plasmodium infection. Given that clinical features of malaria are caused by blood stages, a vaccine against this stage will be very effective in reducing morbidity and mortality. During the blood stage, purine nucleotides, which are essential for parasites' survival and proliferation, are in high demand. The inability of the parasite to engage in de novo synthesis of purine nucleotides makes the enzyme hypoxanthine guanine xanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGXPRT) an essential nutrient salvage enzyme. HGXPRT is located in electron-dense regions in merozoites and in vesicles in the red cell cytoplasm. In contrast to other blood stage antigens, those located on the merozoite surface are targets of HMI. To advance HGXPRT as a malaria vaccine candidate, fermentation and purification of the protein from Plasmodium falciparum (PfHGXPRT) was performed using facilities at Q-Gen, the Queensland Institute of Medical Research (QIMR). Escherichia coli carrying PfHGXPRT gene were a gift in-kind from the University of Queensland (UQ). Recombinant PfHGXPRT expressed in E.coli was purified using anion exchange liquid chromatography and gel filtration techniques. Three methods were used to confirm the Q-Gen PfHGXPRT identity: (1) Western blotting showing identical bands of UQ PfHGXPRT and Q-Gen PfHGXPRT at 26 kDa; (2) N terminal sequencing was compatible with the PfHGXPRT sequence; and (3) mass spectrometry showed homogeneity by giving a subunit molecular mass of 26,231 Da. The purification method used is reproducible and affordable, yielding reasonably pure protein for animal experimentation. Following purification of PfHGXPRT, its efficacy as a subunit vaccine candidate in a rodent model of infection was examined. Multiple rodent models of malaria infection were assessed and it was determined that Plasmodium chabaudi AS (P. chabaudi AS) exhibited the highest cross-reactivity against PfHGXPRT in mice. Hence, P. chabaudi AS was chosen as the appropriate rodent model for study in this thesis. Natural immunity against PfHGXPRT during a blood stage P. chabaudi AS infection was assessed by testing sera and splenocyte responses to PfHGXPRT. IFN-\uf067 and IL-4, as well as antibodies specific for PfHGXPRT, could be detected after infection, suggesting that PfHGXPRT is a target of natural immunity during the blood stage infection. Therefore, further studies of protective immunity generated by immunisation with PfHGXPRT were conducted, specifically to determine their protective efficacy and to determine immune mechanisms elicited by immunisation. Mice immunised with PfHGXPRT and challenged with P. chabaudi AS developed a slightly reduced parasitaemia. T-cell proliferation, but not antibody responses, was detected after immunisation. Protective mechanism(s) were assessed by adoptively transferring immune CD4+ T cells, B cells or sera to naive SCID mice followed by parasite challenge. Only recipients of immune CD4+ T cells showed extended survival. Nevertheless, immunisation with PfHGXPRT followed by sub-patent infection induced better protection than immunisation with PfHGXPRT alone, which appeared to be related to CD4+ T cells. Reduction of parasitaemia, as well as augmentation of T cell proliferation and IFN-\u03b3 production, was evident in PfHGXPRT and sub-patent infected immunised mice. Recipients of CD4+ T cells from PfHGXPRT and sub-patent infection immune mice also showed some degree of protective immunity. PfHGXPRT was shown to induce natural and acquired immunity to P. chabaudi AS. HGXPRT is highly conserved in parasites and humans; therefore, it is essential to define minimal protective epitopes that could be included in a vaccine. Hence, 22 overlapping peptides (termed P1 P22) corresponding to the entire P. chabaudi AS HGPRT sequence were used to define minimal protective epitopes. Following immunisation of mice with seven pools of peptides (P1 P3, P4 P6, P7 P9, P10 P12, P13 P15, P16 P18 and P19 P22), three immunogenic peptides (P11, P13, and P17), which stimulated significant proliferative and IFN-\u03b3 responses were chosen for immunisation studies. Peptide P9 (position 76-95 from N-terminal), which induced the highest IFN-\uf067 levels during P. chabaudi AS infection was also included in the pool of peptides. Mice immunised with P9, P11, P13 and P17 had significantly decreased parasitaemia. Antibody mediated immunity had a partial effect on suppressing parasite growth. CMI, on the contrary, played a central role in adoptively transferred protection by significantly reducing parasitaemia and prolonging survival of recipient SCID mice. Strong T cell proliferation and IFN-\uf067 secretion were also detected after stimulation of splenocytes from immune mice with P. chabaudi AS antigen. CMI response was significantly increased after immunisation with the peptides followed by sub-patent infection. The findings that four short epitopes of HG(X)PRT confer strong CMI protection suggest that homologues of such epitopes could be included in a multi-component malaria vaccine.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":82124874,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"160458696","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"In May 2008, a major controversy about the participation of Pacific Islanders and their descendants in the New Zealand economy was initiated by the release of a report claiming they were \"a drain on the economy,\" were becoming an \"underclass\" and displayed \"significant and enduring underachievement.\" This report received considerable media attention at the same time that the first results of New Zealand's Longitudinal Immigration Survey (LisNZ) were released. The results of the LisNZ received much less attention in the media, even though they contained considerable information about the participation of Pacific migrants in the labor force. This paper reviews some of the findings contained in the May 2008 release of LisNZ data as well as some additional information relating to the larger group of Pacific migrants who entered under all categories of approval spanning skilled migration, business migration, family sponsorship, humanitarian provisions, as well as the special Pacific categories. Three simple indices of labor market participation are used to compare migrants entering under the special Pacific categories with Pacific migrants who gained approval for residence under the other categories. Greater attention is then focussed on the labor market participation of three groups of Pacific migrants \u2013 Fiji Indians, Samoans and Tongans. Fiji Indians are included because they are the largest single group of immigrants from a Pacific country in the LisNZ survey database. The evidence generated by the first wave interviews of the LisNZ does not support an argument that Pacific migrants are failing to gain employment in New Zealand and thus becoming a \"drain on the economy\" or that \"Polynesian immigration fuels an underclass.\" On the three measures of labor force participation there were generally small differences between the Pacific migrant groups, however these were defined, and the rest of the migrants interviewed in the LisNZ. There were some expected differences in occupation distributions, education levels, and ways of obtaining work in New Zealand. But these differences are not indications of \"underachievement\" or any systemic failure of policies regulating immigration from the Pacific.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":154603731,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2051629512","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1177\/011719681001900304","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Abstract Intraguild predation in structurally complex habitats is thought to weaken trophic cascades and increase food web stability. However, many predators commonly found in leaf litter become restricted to simple microhabitat beneath rocks and logs during periods between rains. It is within this structurally simple microhabitat that some predators defend rich prey resources and are likely to interact strongly as the surrounding forest becomes too dry to forage broadly in space. We conducted a 4-y press experiment where we removed focal predators from unfenced field plots. To evaluate the effects of predators on one another we removed either salamanders or centipedes from beneath artificially placed cover objects and compared abundances of these and other intraguild predators to those in non-removal controls. We predicted that salamanders and centipedes would have strong negative effects on each other and on carabid beetles and spiders. We removed a total of 1288 salamanders and 1056 centipedes over 98 sampling dates. In salamander removal plots spider abundance increased by 34%, and carabid beetles decreased by 15% relative to the control. In centipede removal plots salamanders increased by 18% and carabid beetles increased by 29%, but spider abundance decreased by 15%. Interaction strengths were strongest in the drier summer months when territorial predators were confined in spatially fixed microhabitats. It is during these periods that predators may strongly regulate the abundances of guild members. In territorial species that defend areas beneath natural cover, the effect of intraguild predators may be an important mechanism that regulates distribution and abundance of forest floor predators.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":86231116,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2161510226","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1674\/0003-0031-168.1.30","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Over the past decade, Bayesian models have been increasingly applied in environmental modelling particularly to support decision-making, policymaking and environmental risk assessment. Bayesian modelling uses Bayes' theorem to combine the prior information on the parameters with the data to obtain the posterior distribution for the parameters of interest. The resulting posterior probabilities are used to solve the original problem. Among the Bayesian models are Bayesian networks which are probabilistic graphical models. A Bayesian network essentially consists of a directed acyclic graph (DAG), identifying the relationships (edges) between the variables (nodes), and a set of conditional probability tables, which quantify these relationships. Often, the DAG is specified a priori based on expert knowledge. However, there is also a possibility of leaving at least some possible connections or even all of them to the machine learning algorithm such as illustrated by Ramazi et al. (2021). One area of application, where Bayesian networks are becoming popular is habitat suitability modelling (Tantipisanuh et al., 2014; Hamilton et al., 2015). They provide more flexibility than traditional regression-based models since they do not assume linearity in parameters. And unlike MaxEnt, the model does not have to be fully specified a priori but is rather learned from the data. A second application in which Bayesian networks gained attention during recent years is the modelling of complex environmental systems, for instance in the context of ecosystem services analysis and scenario forecasting (Forio et al., 2020). The related popularity among practitioners is due to their transparency and ability to incorporate uncertainty. Particularly, these Bayesian networks are recently and increasingly being applied in ecology and environmental risk assessment. This Research Topic aims to exemplify novel applications of Bayesian networks in environmental modelling and management, particularly in the analysis of habitat suitability, environmental risk assessment, water quality and complex environmental interactions such as the water-energy-food nexus in river basins.

Research was de\u00ad signed to gain insight into the effectiveness of speech preparation from the viewpoint of the graduate in industry. The 250 graduates studied received a B.A. or B.S. degree from Louisiana State University during the period 1950-1967, and comprised three groups divided on the basis of advanced, basic, or no speech training.

The researcher compared the perceptions of the three speech train\u00ad ing groups, management level, level of speech training, age, and company size. A second design compared the data obtained by the questionnaire on speaking performance to the level of speech training. The third and final design compared speech course grades and number of courses coml pleted to speaking performance.

+{"text":"When populations become isolated, members of these populations can diverge genetically over time. This leads to genetic differences between these populations that increase over time if the isolation persists. This process can be counteracted by gene flow, i.e. when genes are exchanged between populations. In order to study the speciation processes when gene flow is present, isolation-with-migration methods have been developed. These methods typically assume that the ranked topology of the species history is already known. However, this is often not the case and the species tree is therefore of interest itself. For the inference of species trees, it is in turn often necessary to assume that there is no gene flow between co-existing species. This assumption, however, can lead to wrongly inferred speciation times and species tree topologies. We here introduce a new method that allows inference of the species tree while explicitly modelling the flow of genes between coexisting species. By using Markov chain Monte Carlo sampling, we co-infer the species tree alongside evolutionary parameters of interest. By using simulations, we show that our newly introduced approach is able to reliably infer the species trees and parameters of the isolation-with-migration model from genetic sequence data. We then use this approach to infer the species history of the mosquitoes from the Anopheles gambiae species complex. Accounting for gene flow when inferring the species history suggests a slightly different speciation order and gene flow than previously suggested.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":231941530,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1101\/348391","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYNC","url":"https:\/\/www.biorxiv.org\/content\/biorxiv\/early\/2021\/02\/12\/348391.full.pdf","status":"GREEN"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

We introduce new techniques for both measuring folding kinetics and detecting the conformations of partially folded intermediates during translation in real time. We find that, although translation does not affect the rate-limiting step of HaloTag folding, a key aggregation-prone intermediate observed during in vitro refolding experiments is no longer detectable. This rerouting of the folding pathway increases HaloTag's folding efficiency and may serve as a general chaperone-independent mechanism of quality control by the ribosome.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":44151322,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2805624672","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1126\/sciadv.aas9098","PubMedCentral":"5976279","ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYNC","url":"https:\/\/advances.sciencemag.org\/content\/advances\/4\/5\/eaas9098.full.pdf","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Actual hydrocarbon entrapments are rarely detailed well enough to permit reliable location of wells from these studies alone owing to inherent noise. This paper presents the results of the application of time-frequency transform on 3D seismic data over an oil field in Niger Delta.

The discrete Fourier transform applied in the interpretation of the 3D seismic data filters the field data recorded in time, and recovers lost sub-seismic geologic information content in frequency. The algorithm is based on fast Fourier transform technique and was developed within Matlab software. The results of the spectral decomposition yielded frequency maps (slices) at data sampling interval (4ms) over the reservoir window. The maps revealed sub-seismic faults, differences in lithology and better reservoir delimitation.

The Texas Accelerated Schools Model began with an intense 5-day training of school teams from schools that had completed a \"buy-in\" process, along with their external coach, The Schoolwide Planning Summer Institutes began with an intense 2-day planning institute in which school teams collaborated with support teams to design plans for school reform that would incorporate federal, local, and district expectations for school reform. Additional support was available as needed. The study involved collecting data from participants throughout the process in sites that included schoolwide Title I programs, rural, urban, and suburban schools at elementary, middle, and high school levels. Participants included teachers, parents, principals, and other administrators. Study findings indicate the importance of participation by the school principal and the usefulness of including a central office administrator in the school team. Also important was providing definite times and places for school teams to work together. Effective teams viewed their coach or support team member as a source of information and support, not as someone to dictate reforms. A comparison of the weekly and as-needed forms of support suggests that the weekly coach was more likely to be considered an integral part of the reform effort. While both collaborative models were effective in developing relationships, creating teams, and assisting those teams to develop plans, the intensity of the training provided by the Accelerated Schools model and the weekly followup support enabled those teams to address their issues in greater depth and to move forward more smoothly.

A sampling design utilizing small sampling units and extensive replication was effective in generating reliable numerical estimates of infaunal densities and diversity. The dredged material had a high proportion of fine material with lesser amounts of shell fragments. Fine sediments were rapidly transported offshore while shells persisted on the beach. Measured beach effects were short term (5 weeks or less) involving increases in abundance mostly of motile crustacean species which brood their young. Planktonic recruitment of polychaetes was evident during this period. As the fine sediments worked offshore, silt and fine sand fractions increased in the bottom sediments. At subtidal depths, there was a positive correlation between the silt-clay fraction and number of species and abundance. Overall abundance and diversity of the benthos were not adversely affected by beach replenishment. In response to an unpredictable, changing environment (erosion-deposition), most of the resident biota are short-lived, opportunistic species which are typically patchy in distribution both temporally and spatially.

Short succulent ryegrass consisting entirely of leaf tissue contained more lipid (mean, 8\u00b71% of the dry weight) than mature ryegrass which contained appreciable stalk (mean, 5\u00b71% of the dry weight). The lipid from the new growth contained fatty acids with appreciably higher proportions of linolenic acid, which was balanced mainly by lower proportions of linoleic and palmitic acids. When monozygotic twin milking cows were grazed on the short rotation ryegrass grown to two stages of maturity, it was found that the fatty acid composition of the milk fat from the two groups was different. The milk fat of cows grazed on the new growth contained higher proportions of oleic acid and other C18 acids, whilst the proportions of myristic and palmitic acids were lower. The total proportions of the short-chain fatty acids were not greatly different, although in the group on new growth butyric acid was present in higher proportions and hexanoic and octanoic acids in lower proportions. The higher unsaturation of the fatty acids in the milk fat of this group of cows may be related to the higher levels of unsaturated fatty acids in the young ryegrass diet and to the extent to which these unsaturated fatty acids are hydrogenated in the rumen.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":86348099,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2131484300","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1017\/S0022029900011262","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Israel has about 300 fighters, which entered active duty in 2004 and have high electronic capabilities. Which were targeted by SAM missiles five relatively old compared to the Israeli air defense system. And here lies the secret of strategic surprise? How can an old Syrian air defense system shoot down an Israeli warplane with high electronic capabilities! Returning to the archives of the Israeli air force, we recall the biggest air battle between the Syrian air force and the Israeli air force The battle of the Beqaa Valley after the Israeli offensive in June 1982, one of the largest air battles in history between the Syrian air force and the Israeli air force Which destroyed in this battle about 90 Syrian aircraft without destroying any Israeli aircraft. This battle witnessed the destruction of most Syrian air defense batteries (15 out of 19) Sam 3, Sam 6 and Sam 7, and the Israeli operation lasted only two hours. Where the Syrian forces failed to destroy any Israeli aircraft because it became old and unable to keep up with the Israeli air force superior to the technical and intelligence and operations, which evolved more than it was in the (1973 war), where these batteries proved effective in that war. Syrian forces from most areas of Lebanon. Thus, the downing of the technically superior Israeli aircraft is a warning signal for the Israeli air force to restore its military calculations by looking for new options to confront the advanced air defense system not in Syria, but in the Lebanese Hezbollah and Iran, because neutralizing the Israeli air force is tantamount to ending the myth. The IDF is superior to its air force It is necessary to look for alternatives not only to confront the advanced air defense systems of Syria, Hezbollah and Iran, but also to prepare for suicide bombers Because what happened today to bring down the technically advanced Israeli plane was not an emergency event related to the loss of a military aircraft, which is possible in any military confrontation, but the real value of what happened today militarily lies in the fact that Israel has to consolidate its military accounts and prepare for what is far from facing a sophisticated defense system, Israel should ask itself what if the Lebanese Hezbollah in the next confrontation would launch 100 or 500 or even 1,000 rockets into Israel, how would Israel's air defense systems deal with them? What happened today is a message to Israeli military experts and advisers that they have to rethink their calculations because the rules of the game have changed today. Israel lost a warplane in exchange for a UAV. Was the loss identical or not? Israel has only one way to pressure the United States to form an international coalition whose main purpose is to draw up joint American-Israeli plans to draw Iran and Lebanese Hezbollah into direct confrontation According to military experts and political analysts, Israel will not go to war against Hezbollah, Iran and Hamas alone.

For this reason, and for its high sensitivity to aggregation reaction, Tmax was proposed as an accurate alternative to Berridge method, which justify the usefulness of the backscatter sensor as a process control tool.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":130241729,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1621162893","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The gloomy picture of World Wars forced the scholars, intelligentsia and leaders to think how to save the humanity from the dangers of wars. After great deliberations and discussions it was reached at conclusion that the major cause of World War first was absence of international institution where the nations could address their grievances and anguish. So the League of Nation was created as international platform to work as safety valve to restrict the another war but this organisation couldn't achieve the desired results and was failed due inherent flaws in the organisation and world was plunged into another World War which was more horrible and world experienced first time the use of nuclear weapons by USA on Hiroshima and Nagasaki where millions of people were killed and millions became disabled due the radiation of these weapons. Again the leaders and activists from entire world started to contemplate this dangerous and horrible situation. Now the core of contemplation was why the League of Nations failed and how to form an new international organisation from taking the lessons from the previous international organisation. The United Nations Organisations was formed on 24 October 1945 with fifty one primary members to save the generations from the future wars.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":216897657,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3009213913","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Utilization of apple industry solid waste, apple pomace (AP) for the production of fumaric acid (FA) using a rotating drum type solid-state bench scale fermenter was studied under optimized conditions and different mechanisms underlying the conversion were investigated. The filamentous fungal strain, Rhizopus oryzae 1526 was used in the study. The solid-state fermentation was carried out in continuous rotation, intermittent rotation and static mode of the fermenter operations for a maximum of 21 days. Two different moisture contents (70% and 50%, w\/w) of AP were applied for each batch. The highest FA concentration (138 \u00b1 9.11 g per kg dry weight of AP) was achieved at 50% moisture content and under continuous rotation after 14 days. Viability checking of the fungus showed maintenance of a high cell count (2.74 \u00d7 108 spores per g dry apple pomace) during fermentation. Analysis of AP fibre composition confirmed the conversion of insoluble dietary fibers into soluble dietary fibers and utilization of the dietary fibres for FA production. Total phenolic content of AP was considerably increased (by around 86%) from 185 \u00b1 10.5 to 345 \u00b1 8.5 mg per g lyophilizate after 18 days. LC\/MS\/MS analysis confirmed the consumption of sugars (glucose fructose and sucrose) present in AP by the fungus during fermentation. The presence of different phenolic compounds and changes in their content after fermentation was also confirmed by LC\/MS\/MS analysis. Two other operating conditions produced 82 \u00b1 6.8 and 58 \u00b1 8.5 g of FA per kg dry weight of AP, respectively after 18 days of fermentation.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":85894317,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2185526928","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1039\/C5RA22898K","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In this control strategy, sliding mode control intended to overcome system dynamics, while Fuzzy controller would decrease both output error and chattering phenomena due to sliding mode process. The simulation results showed that proposed control could decrease chattering phenomena and followed velocity set point with small error.

By systematically controlling the packing density of vehicles queued at a traffic light on a Smart Road, drone footage revealed that the benefit of an initial increase in displacement for close-packed vehicles is completely offset by the lag time inherent to changing back into a 'liquid phase' when flow resumes. This lag is analogous to the thermodynamic concept of the latent heat of fusion, as the 'temperature' (kinetic energy) of the vehicles cannot increase until the traffic 'melts' into the liquid phase. These findings suggest that in situations where gridlock is not an issue, drivers should not decrease their spacing during stoppages in order to lessen the likelihood of collisions with no loss in flow efficiency. In contrast, motion capture experiments of a line of people walking from rest showed higher flow efficiency with increased packing densities, indicating that the importance of latent heat becomes trivial for slower moving systems.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":125456379,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2770718500","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1088\/1367-2630\/aa95f0","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/iopscience.iop.org\/article\/10.1088\/1367-2630\/aa95f0\/pdf","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Sour Orange is by far the most widely used in Tunisia. However, we have also observed other rootstocks in some aged plantations and in southern Tunisia. Our survey has showed that these rootstocks are being used since a long time in the oasis of southern Tunisia and were preferred than Sour Orange by fanners due to their adaptation to the particular conditions of the oasis.

Although BV was often administrated to mCRC patients in combination with oxaliplatin, optimal schedule remains unclear. Many mCRC patients cannot continue to use oxalipatin because of cumulative neurotoxity, which decreases patient's QOL and motivation.We postulated that modification of oxaliplatin schedule would improve TTF in intermittent oxaliplatin usage. Therefore, we planned to use BV with original OPTIMOX1 adiministration schedule; modified oxaliplatin dose (85 mg\/m3).\n\n\nMETHODS\nPatients were enrolled with the criteria excluding neuropathy, PS \u2265 1, or no previous usage of oxaliplatin and BV, and then were received modified FOLFOX6 regimen (L-OHP 85 mg\/m2, l-LV 200 mg\/m2, 5-FU 400 mg\/m2 bolus, 5-FU 2,400 mg\/m2 46h continuous infusion) plus BV (5 mg\/kg) q2wks x 6 cycles, followed sLV5FU2 (omit L-OHP) plus BV x 12 cycles regimen. After that, oxaliplatin reintroduction was done and mFOLFOX6 plus BV regimen was continued until PD. The evaluation of antitumor effect was done according to RECIST Criteria.\n\n\nRESULTS\n40 patients accrued this trial. Median age was 65 years old. PS0: 89.5%, male: 75%, female: 25%, colon: 65.8%, rectal: 31.6%,colon + rectal: 2.6%. During initial 6 cycles of chemotherapy, 90% patients could continue chemotherapy.

This patient continued mFOLFOX6+BV for 12 cycles after reintroduction keeping with PS 0, and was received FOLFIRI+BV regimen as second-line chemotherapy. Further information are under examination.\n\n\nCONCLUSIONS\nThis administration schedule was well tolerated and could continue chemotherapy longer than usual method. sLV5FU2+BV regimen was not affected reintroduction rate and progression free survival.

+{"text":"According to the American Marketing Association, green marketing is the marketing of products that are presumed to be environmentally safe. Thus green marketing incorporates a broad range of activities, including product modification, changes to the production process, packaging changes, as well as modifying advertising. Other similar terms used are Environmental Marketing and Ecological Marketing. Green, environmental and eco-marketing are part of the new marketing approaches which do not just refocus, adjust or enhance existing marketing thinking and practice, but seek to challenge those approaches and provide a substantially different perspective. In more detail green, environmental and eco-marketing belong to the group of approaches which seek to address the lack of fit between marketing as it is currently practiced and the ecological and social realities of the wider marketing environment. Green marketing is a phenomenon which has developed particular important in the modern market. This concept has enabled for the re-marketing and packaging of existing products which already adhere to such guidelines. Additionally, the development of green marketing has opened the door of opportunity for companies to co-brand their products into separate line, lauding the green-friendliness of some while ignoring that of others. Such marketing techniques will be explained as a direct result of movement in the minds of the consumer market. As a result of this businesses have increased their rate of targeting consumers who are concerned about the environment. These same consumers through their concern are interested in integrating environmental issues into their purchasing decisions through their incorporation into the process and content of the marketing strategy for whatever product may be required.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":111138849,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2233981473","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The Chang 8 sandstones are characterized with low porosity, low permeability and strong microscopic heterogeneities due to the complex deep-burial diagenetic history. Detailed petrological studies by thin section, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, core analysis have been used to investigate the lithogology characteristics, diagenesis, diagenetic minerals and their coupling impacts on reservoir property. The results show that Chang 8 sandstones comprise fine to mediumgrained subarkoses, feldspathic litharenites. The pore systems are dominated by remaining primary intergranular pores, secondary dissolution porosity and micropores. Then, five diagenetic facies were divided in Chang 8 sandstones based on the type and degree of diagenesis, diagenetic minerals assemblages and their coupling effects on the reservoir quality. They consist of grain-coating chlorite weak dissolution facies, unstable component dissolution facies, tight compaction facies, clay minerals filling facies and carbonate cementation facies.The well logging response characteristics of various diagenetic facies are summarized on Gamma Ray (GR), Density Logging (DEN), Acoustic (AC), Compensated Neutron Logging (CNL), and True Formation Resistivity (RT) by translating diagenetic facies to well log responses, the diagenetic facies were defined by a set of log responses, and porosity, permeability ranges for each diagenetic facies were determined from core analyses. Well log data of Luo 13 and Chi 212 are processed to evaluate the accuracy of the predictive model. The diagenetic facies are predicted on the vertical profile based on the generated model. Predicted distribution of diagenetic facies precisely coincide with the microscopic observations, and diagenetic facies in Chang 8 sandstones are generally locally distributed. Tight compaction and carbonate cementation diagenetic facies mainly correspond to the non-reservoir and dry layers of Chang 8 sandstones, layers with higher oil potentials are mainly developed in the grain-coating chlorite weak dissolution and unstable component dissolution diagenetic facies.

Recently, it has been reported that proinflammatory cytokines are involved in the pathogenesis of brain edema during HE. Objectives: Observe the dynamic expressions of brain and plasma proinflammatory cytokines in encephalopathy rats, and evaluate the relationship between proinflammatory cytokines and brain edema. Methods: Acute HE rats were induced by intraperitoneal injection of thioacetamide (TAA) in 24 hours intervals for two consecutive days. Then, clinical symptom and stages of hepatic encephalopathy, motor activity counts, index of liver function, and brain water content were observed. The dynamic expressions of IL-1\u03b2, IL-6, and TNF-\u03b1 in plasma and brain tissues were measured with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results: Typical clinical performances of hepatic encephalopathy were occurred in all TAA-administrated rats. The TAA rats showed lower motor activity counts and higher the index of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, total bilirubin and ammonia than those in control rats. Brain water content was significantly enhanced in TAA rats compared with the control. The expressions of IL-1\u03b2, IL-6, and TNF- \u03b1 in plasma and brain significantly increased in TAA rats.

+{"text":"Approximately 3700 km of intermediate-resolution single-channel seismic data from the Northern basin were analyzed to investigate the late Neogene history of East Antarctic Ice Sheet (EAIS) grounding events on the shelf, and to evaluate how glacial unconformities on the shelf are manifested on the upper slope. The Northern basin was chosen as the site of this study because ice-sheet reconstructions show that the basin received sediment by ice emanating from East Antarctica. In addition, seismic correlations to DSDP Site 273 suggest that a relatively thick late Neogene section exists on the basin's outer shelf and upper slope. On the Northern basin shelf, glacial unconformities exhibiting broad, low-angle relief, topset truncation, and cross-cutting relationships reveal a dynamic history of expansions and contractions during which the EAIS was larger than present on at least eight occasions during the late Neogene. On the upper slope, the correlative conformities of the glacial unconformities are indistinct reflections within thick trough-mouth fan (TMF) depocenters at the mouths of Drygalsky and Joides basins. The glacial unconformities and correlative conformities define TMF sequences, and each TMF sequence contains several topsettruncated prograding-slope reflectors. We infer that the correlative conformities on the continental slope correspond to the interface between prograding glaciogenic deposits (glacial maximum) and diatomaceous glacial-marine sediments (glacial minimum). The seismic\u2013stratigraphic analysis and regional mapping indicate that the upper slope does not contain a more complete late Neogene section than that which exists on the shelf. We infer that diatomaceous glacial-marine sediments on the slope may be relatively undisturbed, and hence may provide a means of dating the TMF sequences. It is hoped that these results will stimulate efforts to core the late Neogene section in the Northern basin TMFs to investigate how these EAIS expansions and contractions relate to other records of late Neogene climate and eustasy. q 2000 Elsevier Science B.V.

+{"text":"The primary aim of the work described in this thesis has been to examine the general characteristics of microwave semiconductor oscillators with non sinusoidal waveforms and, in particular, to study the conditions for stability of such oscillators. Single and multiresonant circuits are considered experimentally with the L. S. A. mode being the main point of interest. It is clear from the results that the dependence of the diode power and conductance upon the fundamental voltage amplitude for a multiresonant circuit is quite different compared with a pure sinusoidal oscillator in a single resonant circuit. Similar results are obtained using the describing function technique which proves to be very useful in the analysis and synthesis of circuits for optimum properties of the system. The study on stability allowing for the presence of harmonic components has led to a generalization of the Kurokawa conditions. The new criteria are more restrictive than the condition of stability for pure sinusoidal oscillators. The describing function technique provides the necessary data to plot the device line and circuit admittance loci and a graphical interpretation of the stability conditions at each frequency component is presented.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":125468465,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2897265696","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"In this paper, we present a general framework for robust nonlinear regression that leverages concepts from the field of compressive sensing to simultaneously detect outliers and determine optimally sparse representations of noisy data from arbitrary sets of basis functions. Our framework employs a two-component noise model and compressive sensing recovery techniques to exploit the inherent sparsity of outliers while (optionally) performing model order reduction over all predictive variables and basis functions. As such, our algorithm can de-emphasize the effect of predictive variables that become uncorrelated with the measurement data. This desirable property has various applications like real-time detection of faulty sensors and sensor jamming in wireless sensor networks. After developing our framework and making the connection to compressive sensing theory, we present simulations that demonstrate the superior performance of our framework with respect to classic robust regression techniques like least absolute value and iteratively reweighted least-squares.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":9725740,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2166715197","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/SAM.2012.6250474","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The finding of granulomas on paediatric tissue biopsy is nonspecific, with a wide differential diagnosis that includes chronic infection (eg, tuberculous, atypical Mycobacterium infection, leprosy, Lyme disease, brucellosis, syphilis and histoplasmosis), immunodeficiency (hyperIgM syndrome, chronic granulomatous disease), connective tissue disease (juvenile chronic arthritis) and miscellaneous conditions such as Blau's syndrome, MelkerssonRosenthal syndrome, AndersonFabry disease and VogtKoyanagiHarada syndrome. Tumours such as hepatoblastoma and neuroblastoma may also provoke a granulomatous reaction. Another important differential is sarcoidosis which, like many of the above, is rare in children and has a wide clinical spectrum of severity. Older children with sarcoidosis usually have a presentation similar to adults, with frequent hilar lymphadenopathy and pulmonary infiltrates. Earlyonset sarcoidosis, usually presenting before the age of four, is more frequently characterised by uveitis, rash and arthritis and one could question whether the two diseases are really the same entity. Unlike some of the other conditions associated with granulomas, there is no specific diagnostic test for sarcoidosis. An elevated serum ACE is supportive but nonspecific and there are cases diagnosed as sarcoidosis with no serum abnormality. Given that there is no goldstandard diagnosis test for sarcoidosis, and that sarcoidosis is likely an umbrella term under which lurk several different disease entities, how can we hope to make progress towards finding a specific cause, when the first prerequisite towards achieving this is to assemble a large cohort? Even combining the three biggest studies, Danish, French and North American, yields only just over 100 patients. Nathan et al use a case\u2013control design to explore the novel hypothesis that paediatric sarcoidosis is related not to the child's direct exposures, but to inorganic particles related to coresidents' occupations. A strength of the study is the use of two different control groups, one of which was an ethnically matched disease (sickle cell anaemia (SCD)). The study conclusions might have been stronger if more than one control in each group per index case had been recruited. More importantly, it would have been of interest to study agematched nondisease controls from among the children of coworkers who would likely have been exposed to the same inorganic particles as coresidents of the cases. Furthermore, sibling pairs are the most common relationship for familial aggregation of sarcoidosis, and the same indirect exposures might have been expected within a household. Hence if the hypothesis is correct, siblings would also have been more likely to have a sarcoid diagnosis. Diagnosis was by expert consensus, which is the best that can be achieved at the present time although the fact remains that this is the lowest level of evidence, notwithstanding that the authorship group contains some of the foremost experts in paediatric sarcoidosis on the planet. The authors reported that, compared with the two control groups, there was no difference in direct exposures, but there was higher indirect exposure to inorganic particles, especially to metal dust, talc, abrasive reagents and scouring products. The take home message indicates that indoor heating with wood or fossil energies played a role, although direct exposures did not appear to differ between the three groups. The authors report a higher current household exposure score in the SCD control group than even the sarcoid group compared with healthy controls, although the proportion of SCD having most of the individual exposures appear lower (see table S5 in paper by Nathan et al). This seems counterintuitive and it is surprising that the difference in SCD current household exposure score did not reach statistical significance, while it did in the sarcoid group (see table S4 in paper by Nathan et al); perhaps this is an artefact of the unavoidably small numbers in the study. As the authors discuss, at least some of the highlighted exposures have been linked to granulomatous disease in adults, giving biological plausibility to their findings. However, there does appear to be inconsistency and overlap between particularly the SCD and sarcoid groups. The findings would be strengthened if they were to be replicated in the other two large sarcoid cohorts. Perhaps this study will encourage crossvalidation between international groups in future aetiological studies. There are of course other plausible explanations other than causality for the reported findings. This could be mere coincidence; statistics give us probabilities not certainties, and although this study is the biggest in town, the numbers, as stated by the authors, remain small. Alternatively, it may be that one or more components of the exposome is leading to a granulomatous reaction, but this is unrelated to the disease conventionally labelled sarcoidosis. If the association was causal, one would have predicted that the adults in the family would also be commonly diagnosed with sarcoidosis, having had almost by definition greater exposure to the culprits in the dust, and, if blood relations, at least some genetic commonality, but this was not the case. It may be that inorganic dust exposures on their own are not sufficient to cause disease, but need a second genetic or even environmental hit. Hypothetically, there could be a developmental perspective, with particular time windows being periods of vulnerability, which might go some way to explaining why the adults in the household with greater exposure remained unaffected. Provocatively, could the children have been set up for sarcoidosis by the exposures documented by Nathan et al much earlier than the study sampling, for example in pregnancy or infancy? Or is earlylife disadvantage a factor setting the children up for later sarcoidosis? This is not as implausible as seems at first sight; there is compelling evidence that those growing up with early life disadvantage are more likely to be diagnosed with occupational asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in adult life. In summary, this large (in the sarcoid field) and wellconducted study is challenging. More work, particularly independent validation as well as use of developmentally appropriate animal models is needed to help confirm the findings, and especially we need a better Centre for Paediatrics and Child Health, National Heart and Lung Institute, Imperial College London, London, UK Department of Paedatric Respiratory Medicine, National Heart and Lung Institute, Imperial College London, London, UK Department of Paediatric Respiratory Medicine, Royal Brompton Hospital, London, UK","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":244076969,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1136\/thoraxjnl-2021-218249","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Considerable attention is being given at the present time to the problems of handicapped children. A session at the Annual Meeting of the British Medical Association (1956) and an entire issue of a medical journal (Practitioner, April, 1955) have been devoted to this problem. Every help possible should be given to these children for humanitarian reasons. By helping them to develop to the full such faculties as they possess there should be a reduced demand upon the community when they reach adult life. A recent survey (Carnegie Trust, 1956) showed that the provisions for handicapped children throughout the country were very patchy. A more extensive study of the problem is now being made under the auspices of the Carnegie Trust. A handicap is a relative condition and its definition is difficult. Children may be considered to be handicapped, if, mentally or physically, they lag behind their contemporaries, or if they require special care, or if they have to make special adjustments in educational, emotional or social spheres. Whatever definition is used there will always be a number of borderline cases. Handicapped children are usually grouped according to the cause of the handicap. There are those with deficiencies of the special senses, the blind and the deaf; those with locomotor difficulties, the cerebral palsied and the paralysed; those with chronic illness, the cardiac invalids, the asthmatics and the diabetics; those who are emotionally disturbed, and those who are mentally retarded. This method of grouping gives no indication of the child's functional disability. For example, a child labelled 'spastic' may have abnormal reflexes in one limb but no functional disability, whilst another 'spastic' may be immobilized with quadriplegia. Quibell (1956), dealing with severely physically handicapped children, found that the anatomical diagnosis alone was inadequate, and discussed a method of functional assessment suitable for this group. During a current study of the problems of mentally retarded children a classification was devised which indicated functional disability. This classification, somewhat expanded, is presented below as it is thought that its application to all handicapped children might be useful.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":22676232,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2010239444","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1136\/ADC.32.163.226","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Summary\u2014 The in vitro pharmacology of UP 269\u20106, a novel nonpeptide angiotensin II antagonist, was examined in radioligand binding and functional isolated tissue assays. UP 269\u20106 bound selectively to AT1 receptors as evidenced by the inhibition of specific [125I] Sar1, Ile8\u2010AII binding in rat adrenal membranes (IC50 = 35.8 nM) and in cultured vascular smooth muscle cells (IC50 = 23.8 nM). UP 269\u20106 displayed a very high selectivity for the AT1 compared to the AT2 receptor subtype (IC50 > 10,000 nM). UP 269\u20106 inhibited the AII\u2010induced contraction of isolated rabbit aortic strips. The pattern of AII antagonism suggested competitive antagonism at low concentrations (10\u221210, 3 \u00d7 10\u221210, 10\u22129 M) of UP 269\u20106 and insurmountable antagonism at higher concentrations (3 \u00d7 10\u22129, 10\u22128, 3 \u00d7 10\u22128 M). Based on the calculated pA2 values, UP 269\u20106 (9.86 \u00b1 0.25) was an angiotensin II receptor antagonist as potent as L\u2010158,809 (9.82 \u00b1 0.37) and much more potent than losartan (7.96 \u00b1 0.38). UP 269\u20106 was devoid of affinity (IC50 > 10,000 nM) for many other receptors, ion channels and uptake sites, demonstrating its high specificity for AII receptors. Furthermore, this compound did not affect the contractile response to KCl or phenylephrine in rabbit aorta and exhibited no effect on angiotensin converting enzyme activity. These data demonstrate that UP 269\u20106 is a highly potent, selective and specific AT1 receptor antagonist.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":20241988,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2042630459","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1111\/j.1472-8206.1995.tb00271.x","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Deuterated analogs of each compound were synthesized as internal standards. Isobutane was used as both gas chromatography (GC) carrier gas and chemical ionization (Cl) reagent gas. In order to obtain compounds with satisfactory GC and mass spectrometry (MS) properties, the two alcohol metabolites were dehydrated without loss of label during sample preparation. Selective ion monitoring of the MH+ ions of the protio\u2010 and deuterio\u2010 compounds gave ion ratios which were converted to plasma concentrations using standard curves. For amitriptyline and nortriptyline, which are assayed using multiple deuterated analogs as internal standards, the curves are straight lines. For 10\u2010hydroxyamitriptyline and 10\u2010hydroxynortriptyline, which are assayed using monodeuterated analogs as internal standards, the curves are nonlinear and are analyzed using an iterative computer procedure. Assay sensitivity is 0.5 ng\/ml for amitriptyline, nortriptyline, and 10\u2010hydroxyamitriptyline and 1 ng\/ml for 10\u2010hydroxynortriptyline.

+{"text":"Crizotinib is an anticancer drug approved by FDA for the treatment of non\u2010small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The main target for crizotinib was anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK). However, evidences available indicate that C1156Y mutation in ALK confers resistance to crizotinib. Unfortunately, how mutation actually confers drug resistance is not well understood. Hence, in the present study computational approaches have been employed alongside KINOMEscan profiling technique to reveal the mechanism behind crizotinib resistance in ALK at a molecular level. The results of our analysis indicate that C1156Y mutation alters the conformation of the ALK binding pocket residues which results in a marked decrease in hydrogen bond interactions between crizotinib and ALK. This indicates that hydrogen bonding was a crucial effector of decreased binding affinity. Interestingly, the docking study also indicates that C1156Y mutation increases the affinity for ATP. Finally, our analysis theoretically suggests that M\u20101199 is a key residue responsible for the ALK drug selectivity. We certainly believe that these results may be immense importance for the molecular level understanding of crizotinib resistance pattern and also for designing a potential drug molecule for the treatment of lung cancer in the near future.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":3444155,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2047370445","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1002\/minf.201400070","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The sudden eruption of the genocide ripped apart the country's already delicate social fabric. Family, neighbors, and friends turned against each other as many were forced to take sides. Women were raped, children were orphaned, churches, houses, farms, and businesses were looted and destroyed. In its immediate wake, new social problems emerged. Mass imprisonment left many families with no breadwinner and the stigma of being related to a genocider. Revenge killings were reported. A flawed community-based court system, the Gacaca courts, also allowed for false accusations often made in the heat of the moment.

The Rwandan genocide is often discussed as an extreme case of ethnic and political conflict between Hutus and Tutsis, whose complex sociopolitical roots cannot be addressed here.

At these churches, many of the faithful acted heroically, but the fact remains that some priests and bishops also betrayed their flock, causing mass killings in churches where people gathered for safety. That such violence could be perpetrated in this predominantly Catholic and highly religious country led an astute reporter to observe in horror that in Rwanda, \"the blood of tribalism is deeper than the waters of baptism.\" Today, the memory of the genocide and the role of Catholics in the event remains ever present.

Further, due to the volatile nature of VCs and their ability to destabilize the market in the long run, most regulators have tried to nip the problem in the bud by not allowing VCs to operate in a manner similar to fiat currency.

They may be used as a medium of exchange, a unit of account, a store of value, and may be used to as a method for the discharge of debts.<br><br>That being said, VCs have been restrictively defined by regulators to ensure that they may not function as money to ensure that they cannot turn into a valid medium of exchange that replaces the traditional fiat currency. In India, a similar trend is reported with the RBI prohibiting the entities regulated by it to enter into or facilitate transactions that involve VCs. Furthermore, the legislature is also considering a law to prohibit the use, issuance, transfer, mining, generation, disposal or sale of crypto-currencies within the territory of India.<br><br>The present paper seeks to determine and analyze the true nature of VCs from a legal viewpoint.

Regularity is a key criterion of structured placement so that placement can make progress beyond constraint-driven approaches. This paper formulates the topological regularity that is extractable from a sequence-pair. Regular structures like arrays and rows are defined on a single-sequence that is a kind of standard representation of a sequence-pair. We extract regular structures from a single-sequence in 0(n), and then evaluate the structures by quantifying the regularity as an objective function. Besides, we propose a new simulated annealing (SA) framework, called dual SA, where we convey a constructive feature to an SA framework, so that it attains a placement balancing the size of regular structures against the area efficiency. In experiments, we apply our structured placement to analog block designs, and reveal the definite advantage that our placements contain many regular structures such as rows and arrays without increasing the chip area and the wire length, compared to the existing placement.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":14750504,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2026872219","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.2197\/ipsjtsldm.2.222","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.2197\/ipsjtsldm.2.222","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The Arun gas and condensate field in northern Sumatra is a large Miocene coral-algal reef complex. The Arun limestone is rich in lime mud throughout the section, and low to moderate-energy paleoenvironments are indicated. The reservoir facies are strongly affected by diagenesis and display several secondary porosity types, including moldic, vuggy, breccia, and fracture porosities. Without the diagenetic alteration of otherwise tight muddy limestones, reservoir facies would not have developed at Arun. To put constraints on the timing of porosity development in Arun field, fluid inclusions were examined in coarse calcite cements which partially or completely filled some of the secondary pores. The fluid within the inclusions is brackish with an equivalent of 2.5 wt % NaCl. Homogenization temperatures, after pressure correction, suggest that the cementation began close to the maximum burial depth and as recently as 5 Ma. Since the cement postdates the formation of secondary pores, it is conceivable that secondary porosity could have developed not only in the shallow subsurface (i.e., the vadose zone), but also in moderate to deep burial conditions. Shales surrounding the Arun reef are overpressured as a result of dewatering during smectite-illite conversion and have expelled water into the Arun limestone.

+{"text":"Developing a computational model that can predict the effects of small molecules on biological status of a cell can be very useful for various applications, including candidate drug compound screening and toxicity testing in silico. In this study, we developed a deep learning model that predicts the effects of small molecules on gene expression levels of a cell. This deep learning model takes two inputs: the structure of a chemical, presented in SMILES, and a protein sequence encoded by a gene of interest. The model processes these two input data using a fingerprinting method for the input chemical structure and a convolutional neural network for the input protein sequence. As a result, the model predicts whether a given molecule upregulates or downregulates a gene of interest where the molecule and gene are both provided as inputs. The deep learning model was developed by using so called L1000 profiles covering gene expression levels of various cancer cell lines under a large number of perturbation conditions [1]. L1000 is a cost-effective transcriptome technology that can accurately infer the expression levels of 9,196 genes on the basis of expression levels of 978 'landmark9 genes that are directly measured. In this study, the deep learning model was developed for three different cancer cell lines, HA1E (kidney), HCC515 (lung), and HEPG2 (liver), by using L1000 profiles covering expression levels of the landmark genes individually perturbed with 5,213 molecules for the HA1E cell line, 5,171 molecules for the HCC515, and 3,529 for HEPG2. The deep learning models developed in this study will be useful for a wide range of studies that examine the effects of small molecules, for example in drug development and toxicity testing.

The nanostructures employed as drug delivery systems have multiple advantages which make them superior to conventional delivery systems. Nanotechnology is one approach to overcome challenges of conventional drug delivery systems based on the development and fabrication of nanostructures. Some challenges associated with the technology as it relates to drug effectiveness, toxicity, stability and pharmacokinetics and drug regulatory control. Nanotechnology is a welcome development that is set to transform drug delivery and drug supply chain management, if optimally developed. Lipid Drug Conjugates (LDCs) are at the forefront of the rapidly developing field of nanotechnology with several potential applications in drug delivery and research. Due to their unique size dependent properties, lipid nanoparticles offer possibility to develop new therapeutics. The ability to incorporate drugs into nanocarriers offers a new prototype in drug delivery that could use for drug targeting. Hence lipid drug conjugates hold great promise for reaching the goal of controlled and site specific drug delivery and hence attracted wide attention of researchers.

Failure to care about the ends of professional practice reveals a lack of appreciation of the value of professional work.

+{"text":"From time to time a distinguished novelist regales us with an account of some notorious crime or cause celebre. The presentation, in contrast with that of the professional crime writer, often brings out some motivation or facet of the case which had not been previously considered. In this description of a once well-known murder of Leon Beron on Clapham Common on New Year's Day 1911 Mr. Linklater associates the crime with the murder of policemen in Houndsditch and with the Sidney Street siege a few weeks before. He suggests that the three incidents were engineered by a foreign government to stimulate repressive legislation which would, in its turn, provoke seditious activity. This horrid thrust of political forces is with us again in the world of today. Leon Beron, of Russan origin, lived in the East End of London in a coterie of eastern Europeans with anarchistic leanings. He subsisted without working and was not without means. Steinie Morrison, who had a long criminal record, also lived in the area. He was not closely associated with Beron but was seen in his company on the evening before the murder was discovered. Beron's body was found savagely battered and stabbed and it had been robbed. Two cuts, resembling the holes on a violin, were seen on the face. These gave rise to speculation but were never explained. Morrison was charged and convicted of the murder. Evidence was given that he had been handed a long heavy parcel, which he said was a flute, before he left a cafe with Beron, he was identified by three cab drivers between the East End and Clapham. He appeared to have plenty of money on the days after the murder. It is noteworthy that Darling J., who tried the case, omitted to express agreement with the jury's verdict. The matter attracted much attention at the time as there was a scare about Russian anarchists in the East End. Morrison was sentenced to death but the sentence was commuted to one of life imprisonment, he died in prison ten years later. Morrison should not have been convicted on the evidence and the Scottish verdict of not proven would have been appropriate had it been applicable in England. He had a considerable criminal record, though not for violence. However, a detective later stated in his memoirs that he regarded him as the most dangerous man he had dealt with. Mr. Linklater describes the whole affair with lucidity. It is almost superfluous to mention that the book is superbly written. Referring to Joseph Conrad's the Secret Agent, he puts forward the view that the murder might have been politically inspired to shock the British government and public. Sixty years later, with greater experience of homosexual murder, one has the notion that it displayed the savagery which is often associated with homicide by a homosexual, but this is another speculation. Steinie Morrison was emphatically no homosexual. The book is strongly recommended.

Consequently, not a small number of measurements for wheel working face has been reported. This measurement is expected to be high-speed and performed on the machine. However, there is no measuring system, which is suitable for these purposes. Therefore, this paper describes a high-speed 3-D measuring system for wheel working face on the machine. In this system, a sensing head similar to a laser displacement meter is used. The sensing head is attached to grinding head by two automatic stages. The wheel rotating at 30m\/s peripheral speed is scanned by these stages. The scanning resolution is 3\u03bcm for X, Y, and Z respectively. This system essentially does not have any limitation for the measurement area. The results of measurements are studied experimentally.

Though contractors have built simulation systems with high fidelity models of weapon systems and battlefields, developing competent tactics to give full play to new weapon systems in simulation experiments is labor intensive, as most classical tactics tend to be out of date. In this work, we proposed a tactics exploration framework (TEF) that applied grammar-based genetic programming (GP) to generating and evolving tactics in the engagementlevel simulation.

Secondly, none of the methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates appear to have been adequately assessed for the presence of heterogeneous vancomycinintermediate resistance (hVISA) with either population analysis profile testing, macro-method E test, or GRD E test [2, 3].

Specular meteor radars (SMRs) and partial reflection radars (PRRs) have been observing mesospheric winds for more than a solar cycle over Germany (~54 \u00b0N) and northern Norway (~69 \u00b0N). This work investigates the mesospheric mean zonal wind and the zonal mean geostrophic zonal wind from the Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) over these two regions between 2004 and 2020. Our study focuses on the summer when strong planetary waves are absent and the stratospheric and tropospheric conditions are relatively stable. We establish two definitions of the summer length according to the zonal wind reversals: (1) the mesosphere and lower thermosphere summer length (MLT-SL) using SMR and PRR winds, and (2) the mesosphere summer length (M-SL) using PRR and MLS. Under both definitions, the summer begins around April and ends around mid-September. The largest year to year variability is found in the summer beginning in both definitions, particularly at high-latitudes, possibly due to the influence of the polar vortex. At high-latitudes, the year 2004 has a longer summer length compared to the mean value for MLT-SL, as well as 2012 for both definitions. The M-SL exhibits an increasing trend over the years, while MLT-SL does not have a well-defined trend. We explore a possible influence of solar activity, as well as large-scale atmospheric influences (e.g. quasi-biennial oscillations (QBO), El Ni\u00f1o-southern oscillation (ENSO), major sudden stratospheric warming events). We complement our work with an extended time series of 31 years at mid-latitudes using only PRR winds. In this case, the summer length shows a breakpoint, suggesting a non-uniform trend, and periods similar to those known for ENSO and QBO.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":237560069,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.5194\/angeo-2021-51","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.5194\/angeo-2021-51","status":"GREEN"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"It is taken almost for granted that when one hears the words age-related responses, singing, gender stereotypical behaviour, and educational quality in music education, what will follow in the next sentence is a reference to issues of concern in music education. At the forefront of this issue, however, are positive ideas and innovative practice where pupils gain a different perspective on music. As well as supporting music learning, the implication here seems to be about the potential to make music pedagogy radically different and thus to help increase pupils' confidence and motivation. One of the central tasks of music education, and a key issue that emerges in this collection of five articles by eight authors, is the potential that music has to provide opportunities for musical participation and how this in turn increases the effectiveness of education. A particular view is constructed on the development of age-related changes in musical preferences in elementary (or primary) school children by Reinhard Kopiez and Marco Lehmann. From within the educational context of Germany, we learn how a quantitative study of 'open-earedness' (defined as 'the tolerance towards unconventional musical styles') utilised a sound questionnaire to measure the aesthetic reactions to music in elementary school children. Several interesting explanations for the decline of open-earedness between different age groups are offered. Advocacy on the potential use of singing in music education is well documented. However, studies conducted in settings seeking to promulgate a psychological view of pre-pubertal children possessing speech and voice disorders remain relatively rare. An important study by Tiija Rinta from Finland\/UK reports on the impact of singing on children's psychological state with children from a British school and children in a Finnish School. The findings show that singing has a positive effect on children's overall vocal functioning and well-being. Tiija suggests that children would benefit from a curriculum which focuses on and takes every opportunity to make connections using singing as a means of developing vocal functioning. The third paper moves into university studies with a focus on the content of instrumental lessons and gender relations from within five Australian higher education institutions. Katie Zhukov employs observation techniques to investigate the priorities of topics explored in advanced instrumental lessons. Stereotypical gender behaviour among the teachers and towards their students is identified. She utilises a large number of categories of observed behaviour, reporting only on the results for lesson content to demonstrate the different insights that can be obtained from teacher verbal utterance and physical action and the frequencies in each category. A call for future research to consider gender implications in all aspects of music teaching and for the importance of topics being taught in higher education and their power to reveal attitudes associated with stereotypical male and female roles in teaching is well considered.

+{"text":"This ex post facto study examined the fall-to-fall persistence and academic success of students in a medium-sized Virginia community college. The variables of age and ethnicity in combination with whether a student's first mathematics course was developmental were used to examine the effects of each. It was found that neither the interaction of developmental status and age nor the interaction of developmental status and ethnicity were significant in predicting either success in the first college-level mathematics course or persistence to a second year, Developmental students who subsequently enrolled in a college-level mathematics course had comparable levels of success as did students who did not require developmental mathematics courses. Older students and White students were more likely to succeed in their first college-level mathematics course than were traditional-age and non-White students, respectively. There were no significant differences based upon age, ethnicity, or developmental status in the persistence to a second year of enrollment in the college. ********** Background Developmental education is receiving an increasing amount of attention, particularly in community colleges. President Obama has provided significant funding for community colleges with the expectation that more students will graduate. Community colleges enroll 35% of postsecondary students in the country at a cost of over $38 billion yearly (Provasnik & Planty, 2008). As the great majority of community colleges have an open admissions policy, one of the key educational tasks that has fallen to community colleges is developmental education (Provasnik & Planty). With open admissions policies, students often enroll with weak academic skills that are not to the level expected of college students. Developmental courses in college are present to bring the academic level of the student up to the collegiate level (Johnson & Kuennen, 2004; VCCS, 2009). The success of developmental students is critical in reaching national, state, and institutional goals on student success (VCCS, 2011), particularly as approximately 40% of community college first-year students enroll in at least one developmental course (Alliance for Excellent Education, 2011; Parsad, Lewis, & Greene, 2003). In 2008, the Virginia Community College System created a Developmental Education Task Force that examined the state of developmental education in its 23-member community colleges. This task force affirmed three goals for the system of community colleges in Virginia: (a) to reduce the need for developmental education; (b) to redesign developmental education to allow for completion in less than one year; and (c) to increase the number of students graduating or transferring (VCCS, 2009). Data collected for this report showed that 56% of first-time-in-college students beginning in the fall 2006 semester received recommendations for developmental mathematics courses based on their placement scores. Since the date of that report, the percentage of students placing into developmental courses has increased in Virginia (VCCS, 2011) and has been demonstrated to be increasing in other areas of the country as well (Kendall, Pollack, Schwols, & Snyder, 2007). The Virginia Community College System collects data to determine to what level it is reaching the stated goals created by the Developmental Education Task Force. These goals include measures of student success. The measures used to determine how these goals are being met include the persistence of students from fall to spring and fall to fall semesters, success in developmental courses, success in college-level courses, graduation rates, and transfer rates. This study examines two of these measures: (a) persistence of students from the fall semester of 2006 to the fall semester of 2007 and (b) the success students had in their first college-level mathematics course. This study extends the data reported by the VCCS by examining age and ethnicity in conjunction with developmental status to determine if there are different results for student groups commonly found in community colleges: nontraditional and ethnically diverse students. \u2026","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":141220572,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"188027071","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The N-methoxy-N-methylamides (Weinreb amides) have been widely used as effective carbonyl equivalents since they react with organometallics to provide various carbonyl functional groups through very stable metal-chelated intermediates.1 Their preparations can be generally accomplished by condensation of carboxylic acids and N,O-dimethylhydroxylamine hydrochloride using peptide coupling rea\u00ad gents. Typical coupling reagents for this purpose are dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and\/or 1-hydroxybenzotriazole,2 1,1'-carbonyldiimidazole,3 BOP,4 2-halo-1 -methylpyridinium salts,5 2-pyridyl esters,6 HBTU,7 and 2-chloro-4,6-dimethoxy[1,3,5]triazine.8 These methods are especially useful for the preparation of N-methoxy-N-methylamides from N-protected a-amino acids without any racemization, but some of these require the use of an excess of additional base and coupling reagents such as BOP and HBTU are expensive. The N-methoxy-N-methylamides can be also prepared from in situ mixed anhydrides, anhydride, and phosphonic an\u00ad hydrides, generated from the treatment of carboxylic acids with alkyl chloroformates (R=Me,9a Et,9b i-Bu),9 pivaloyl chloride,10 and diethyl phosphorocyanidate11 or propylphos\u00ad phonic acid anhydride,12 respectively, by subsequent addi\u00ad tion of N,O-dimethylhydroxylamine hydrochloride in the presence of base. However, the removal of isobutyl alcohol in case of using isobutyl chloroformate from the reaction mixture is often tedious and phosphonic derivatives are expensive coupling reagents. Recently, the preparation of N-methoxy-N-methylamides by the palladium-catalyzed coupling reactions13 between Nmethoxy-N-methylcarbamoyl chloride and organostannanes was reported, however the scope of the reaction is limited to sp and sp2 hybridized organostannanes. In this paper we report that N-methoxy-N-methylamides can be efficiently prepared from carboxylic acids and N-methoxy-N-methylcarbamoyl chloride in the presence of a catalytic amount of 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP). The N-methoxy-N-methylcarbamoyl chloride 1 was pre\u00ad pared by a modification of a known method,14 where phos\u00ad gene is treated with N,O-dimethylhydroxylamine hydro\u00ad chloride in benzene, but yield is moderate. To a mixture solution of one third equivalent of bis(trichloromethyl) carbonate 2 and N,O-dimethylhydroxylamine hydrochloride 3 in methylene chloride was added 2 equiv of triethylamine over 20 min at 0 oC (Scheme 1). The reverse addition of 2 in methylene chloride to a mixture solution of 3 and triethyl\u00ad amine in methylene chloride at 0 oC led to competing side reaction and thus 1 was obtained in 84% yield with the formation of N,N'-dimethoxy-N,N'-dimethyl urea as a by\u00ad product in 6% yield. After the reaction methylene chloride was evaporated and the mixture was dissolved in tetrahydro\u00ad furan, followed by filtering off triethylamine hydrochloride. The condensed residue was purified by Kugelrohr vacuum distillation to afford 1 in 90% yield as a colorless liquid. To investigate the optimum conditions for the synthesis of N-methoxy-N-methylamides 4, we first added phenylacetic acid to a solution of 1 in acetonitrile, and next triethylamine at room temperature.

+{"text":"INTRODUCTION\nLack of exact clinical studies on effects of corticosteroids in therapy and prevention of herpes zoster-related pain, elicited many controversies in the past. The aim of our study was to estimate effects of prednisone on frequency, intensity and duration of postherpetic neuralgia.\n\n\nMATERIAL AND METHODS\n68 immunocompetent herpes zoster patients, 8-90 years of age (37 females and 31 males, mean age 55.7 years) were enrolled for study; 30 patients were treated with acyclovir (5 x 800 mg daily for a 7-day period) and prednisone (initial daily dose 60 mg, tapering over 14 days), and the control group of 38 patients with acyclovir only. Patients were clinically followed up for 3 months after complete resolution of skin lesions. Chi-square test was used in statistical data analysis.\n\n\nRESULTS\nThe difference regarding incidence of postherpetic neuralgia in acyclovir\/prednisone group and acyclovir group (although slightly less in the former one) was not significant. Duration of postherpetic neuralgia over 3 months was similar in both groups. Mild postherpetic pain was more common in the acyclovir\/prednisone group (44.4%) than in the acyclovir group (28.6%); however, statistical validation requires more patients to be studied.\n\n\nDISCUSSION\nResults of our study didn't confirm efficiency of prednisone regarding occurrence and characteristics of postherpetic neuralgia. Failure of prednisone therapy may be partly contributed to advanced age of patients and delayed onset of therapy.\n\n\nCONCLUSION\nUse of corticosteroids in zoster patients gives neither reliable protection from appearance of postherpetic neuralgia, nor shortens its duration. Further investigations are necessary to estimate their effects on postherpetic pain.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":24032990,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2075156647","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.2298\/MPNS0402018C","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In Brunei Darussalam, breast cancer has the highest incidence rate among women. This study presents the survival rate of women diagnosed with breast cancer in Brunei Darussalam and explores the association between survival and demographic or clinical characteristics. Methods: This is a retrospective study of breast cancer diagnosed from 2007 to 2017 among women in Brunei Darussalam. Cancer data was retrieved from population based cancer registry. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Log rank test were applied to estimate the survival rates and the association between survival and important patients' characteristics. Hazard ratios were derived using Cox Proportional Hazard model. Results: The survival rates of breast cancer patients at 1, 3 and 5 years were 89.5%, 79.2% and 72.0% respectively. The 5-year survival rates for cancer stages were 92.2% for localized, 76.9% for regional, and 21.4% for distant metastasis. Ethnicity, cancer stages and cancer stages-morphology interaction were significant independent predictors for breast cancer survival in Brunei Darussalam. Conclusion: The survival rate of women diagnosed with breast cancer in Brunei Darussalam and its significant predictors are similar to those reported from other developed countries. Further studies on predictors such as health seeking behaviours and impact of different cancer treatment will provide further insight in improving survival rates of breast cancer through early cancer detection pro-grammes and strengthening of the healthcare service delivery.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":232318839,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

While this may represent the aspirations of many persons in organized communities, their organizations are not unlike other formally organized groups in terms of the unequal levels of participation. Many members may make no contribution to the goals of the community and others may participate at varying levels, and, similarly, neither do all share equally in the accrued benefits.

+{"text":"Improving fault tolerance within the clusters has become vital because of the drastic decrease in the Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) in complex clusters. Checkpointing is one of the robust ways to improve fault tolerance by rolling back from a saved state in the event of a failure in the cluster. Since, checkpointing primarily relies on storage devices for storing the states at regular intervals it will be difficult to accommodate several storage devices to support the ever increasing number of components in the cluster. This performance bottleneck is overcome by an independent checkpointing method called, Diskless Checkpointing. Ever since diskless checkpointing was launched commercially there were several research explorations that led to the division of diskless checkpointing into three namely, neighbor based, parity based and Reed-Solomon code based. All these algorithms were applied for recovering clusters from multiple processor failures. On the other hand, due to space and power constrains the multicore architecture have started to be used widely in the clusters. The future world of supercomputing envisions that most of the upcoming clusters will contain a majority of multicore processors or Chip MultiProcessors(CMP). This shows the necessity for a robust diskless checkpointing algorithm for recovering from failures in multicore architecture. Thus this paper aims at investigating the existing diskless checkpointing algorithms for multiple processor failures and devising a robust system for CMP.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":16579543,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Whereas interest in young children's writing has increased in recent years, the focus has centered more around transcription skills (i.e., letter formation and spelling) and less upon children's early composing. Of the limited research that does exist on early composing, there is little shared understanding around the conceptualization of the construct or how it should be measured. Research to date has utilized varied and sometimes conflicting scoring and assessment techniques to assess early composing skills in young children. In order to more fully conceptualize this construct, the first study synthesizes extant literature focused upon early writing and composing to understand the nature and measurement of emergent composing. The second study aims to examine composing by exploring 160 prekindergarten children's performance on a testing battery including a number of pre-existing and alternative writing assessments in order to explore the nature, measurement, and variability of early composing skills. In addition, this study will examine language, literacy, and executive function skills as they relate to children's performance on early composition tasks. Partial correlations, controlling for children's age, will be used to determine the degree of relation among children's composing scores. Partial correlations will also be used to examine the associations of composing scores and children's language, literacy, and cognitive skills. Multiple linear regressions will be utilized to determine the nature and degree of relation among children's language, literacy, and executive function skills and early composing.

It exploits radio occultation (RO) observations of the signals emitted by the satellites of global navigation systems (GNSS) which are eclipsing (rising) as viewed by a low earth orbit satellite (LEO). BPV requires, as a preliminary step, the estimation of the dry background atmosphere model of refractivity (i.e., obtained from bending angle profiles) to be subtracted from the real observations in order to extract water vapor profiles. The determination of the lowest layer of the atmosphere over which the concentration of water vapor can be deemed negligible is particularly crucial for a correct application of the BPV method. In this study, we have applied three methods to set the starting altitudes for the dry air layers of the atmosphere: (1) by air temperature below some threshold values (for example, 250 K); (2) by \"smooth\" bending angle profiles in ROs; (3) by saturated water vapor pressure. These methods were tested with thermodynamic and bending angle profiles from 912 radiosonde excursions colocated with RO observations. For every dry air starting altitude we determined the best estimator from each of the three methods. In particular, by comparing those estimators with the quantiles and momenta of the dry air starting altitude distributions, we achieved improvements of up to 50% of the humidity profiles.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":244219754,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3204081111","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3390\/atmos12101276","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2073-4433\/12\/10\/1276\/pdf?version=1634174229","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

To evaluate whether employee groups are associated with firm social activism, we gathered all public statements in support of LGBT rights made by the five hundred largest publicly-traded US corporations from 2011 to 2017. In an exploratory observational analysis, we found robust evidence that in highly-educated workforces LGBT employee groups persuade management to take public stances in support of LGBT rights. Our findings suggest that internal pressure promotes activism on LGBT issues, and market, political, or social forces are insufficient to fully explain firm social activism.

+{"text":"Abstract This essay aims at highlighting the particular connection between the choice of suicide, and the voices, both abstract and concrete, of power. In every era the malleable materiality of the dead body finds legitimacy in the peculiar hermeneutics of suicide, in sets of institutions, procedures, and beliefs that identify suicidal deaths and assign them meanings. In the novel The Hours by Michael Cunningham, the whole narration is permeated by a preoccupation with the meaning of death to the living, and particularly to potential suicide victims and people exposed to the experience of death. In Cunningham's novel, suicide acquires the peculiarities of a meaningful gesture, which could then be interpreted as an expression of personal autonomy and a dissident critique of society. Cunnigham, with postmodern detachment, places suicide at the centre of the arena, shaping it within the complex interplay of political, legal, social, scientific and cultural developments. He underlines the universality and atemporality of the emotional experience, as well as the manifest implications and social communications in suicidal behaviour. The different nuances portrayed by the author regarding this aspect contribute to undermining or at least calling into question the normative conceptions of suicide.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":147029597,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2312356878","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1515\/pol-2015-0011","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"http:\/\/www.degruyter.com\/downloadpdf\/j\/pol.2015.9.issue-1\/pol-2015-0011\/pol-2015-0011.xml","status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"is state universality, not the state itself. The essential issue is that the political community represents an abstraction from the empirical existence of civil society, the latter actually constituting a rather atomistic form of community \u2013 hence a non-community. \"The separation of civil society and political state necessarily appears as a separation of the political citizen, the citizen of the state, from civil society, from his own, actual, empirical reality\" (2010b: 77\u201378). Hegel also perceived the separation between civil and political society, but advanced a logical resolution to a very real contradiction. In Marx's words, \"By expressing the strangeness of this phenomenon Hegel has not eliminated the estrangement\" (2010b: 79). As a consequence of its abstract universality, the modern state form is first characterized by Marx as an alienated objectivity. What comes to light here is the specific nature of modern sociability, related to the autonomous character of its political sphere. In the feudal system, \"the organic principle of civil society was the principle of the state\" (Marx 2010b: 72); the inequality of empirical (social) existence corresponded to a political inequality. The modern political community, however, does not reproduce the empirical reality of individuals. When moving from the civil sphere to the political one, bourgeois man needs to forget his economic determinations, to set apart his practical effectiveness, in order to assume a communitarian \u2013 though abstract \u2013 citizen form. The alienated character of the modern political realm comes from the fact that it does not reflect the main structural determinants of the individual's empirical practice. These determinants include: market competition, scarcity of resources (in a framework of private wealth appropriation), and individualism. They underpin our form of socialization, but are overlaid by a set of political values and institutions such as solidarity, commonwealth (the general good) and cooperation, which are indeed very important, but which remain dependent on voluntaristic initiatives and not on the economic structures. It is worth noting that Marx, while criticizing this bifurcation in the individual's existence, does not seek to strengthen the state against civil society or, vice versa, to reinforce civil society against the state. Rejecting the artificial conciliation proposed by Hegel, Marx criticizes along with him the liberal tradition and the notion of a social contract. For Marx, the alien character attributed to the modern form of political community is to be resolved not by taking the bourgeois of civil society as a model for the political citizen, but rather by overcoming both these one-sided figures. The two articles Marx published in the Deutsch-Franz\u00f6sische Jahrb\u00fccher (1844) indicate the deepening of these questions.

+{"text":"As vehicle turbochargers are developed toward higher performance and lower turbo lag, high cycle fatigue (HCF) of radial turbine blades is becoming increasingly common which greatly threatens the reliability of turbochargers. Tip leakage vortex is one of potential sources of blade excitation and it's profoundly influenced by blade tip clearance. This paper studies the influence of tip clearance distribution on blade excitation of a vaneless radial turbine via experimentally validated one-way fluid-structure interaction (FSI) numerical method. The results suggest that blade vibration response is significantly influenced by tip clearance distribution in the meridional direction. Generalized energy method is proposed to determine the key factors for blade excitation. The results manifest that complex distributions of harmonic pressure amplitude on the blade dominate blade vibration response. Detailed flow field analysis is carried out to further investigate the mechanism of blade excitation. The results show that distributions of harmonic pressure amplitude on pressure surface (PS) and suction surface (SS) are both dominated by tip leakage vortex, whereas the roles that tip leakage vortex plays are quite different. Specifically, tip leakage vortex influences harmonic pressure amplitude on SS directly because of short distance between vortex core and SS, whereas it influences harmonic pressure amplitude on PS indirectly by interfering the evolution of passage vortex. This research can guide new designs for durable vaneless radial turbines without sacrificing aerodynamic performance.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":237770126,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3179650268","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1177\/09544070211028188","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In contrast to simply automating presentation, there's a lot that interactive learning technologies can do to address more powerful forms of pedagogy ased on learning by doing, and collaborative teaming (Roschelle, Teasley, 1995). This will allow students to act rather than listen, and to try things within the technology world that are impossible in the real world and link to outside resources and communities of practice. The paper touches the tension between enterprise practice and \"small piece\" approach design.

+{"text":"Measuring the two-neutrino double-beta decay of 136Xe to the first 0+ excited state, denoted as 01 , of the daughter nucleus 136Ba is exciting because it is expected to introduce constraints to the Nuclear Matrix Elements (NMEs) related to double-beta decays. Moreover, shared uncertainties in the NMEs for the excited state and ground-state decays can be canceled by taking the ratio between their NMEs. Also, having a better understanding of these NMEs would allow us to determine the effective Majorana neutrino mass more precisely from measurements of neutrinoless double-beta decay half-lives [1]. Finally, this search would allow us to test exotic theories of alternate doublebeta decay mechanisms. Therefore, in this paper, we train a boosted decision tree (BDT), a multilayer perceptron (MLP), and a long-short term memory (LSTM) network on Monte Carlo simulations of the Enriched Xenon Observatory (EXO-200) experiment to increase the sensitivity of this search and set a lower limit on the half-life of this decay. We use specific features, described in Sections 4 and 5, of the events recorded in the detector as inputs to the aforementioned models with a binary output of whether the event was a signal or background, where signal is the excited state decay and background is all the other decays. We compare the performances of these models using the area under the specificity versus sensitivity curve and find that the LSTM model performs the best.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":209520890,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"A study was undertaken of the interaction of the Mg ion, i.e., Mg(II), with the anionic phosphatidylglycerol (PG), one of the five lipid species present in the thylakoid membrane of plant chloroplasts. The number of Mg(II) binding sites (n0) in PG bilayer vesicles (PGV) was determined by equilibrium dialysis and atomic absorption spectroscopy, and the Mg(II) binding sites were identified by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The coordination interactions of the Mg ion in the phosphorylglyceryl moiety of PG were then examined in the framework of the lattice created by intermingling PG molecules. The FT-IR study shows that the sites of Mg(II) coordination are the negative charge in PO2 - , the C-O-P-O-C and C-O-C residues, and the sn1 and sn2 ester CdO's, as was also observed in bilayer membranes constituted of digalactolipids (Fragata, M.; Menikh, A.; Robert, S. J. Phys. Chem. 1993, 97, 13920). A major finding is that n0 ) 8.1, meaning that Mg(II) binds or coordinates to about eight PG molecules. This result is particularly interesting, since it is directly related to the coordination number (CN) 8 of the Mg ion in a crystal lattice. CN ) 8 is thus a clear indication that the metal ion-lipid array adopts a Mg(II)-8PG lattice or molecular arrangement. An important question in this respect is the determination of the lattice energy per PG mole, U0\/PG, and the Born's energy of charging a Mg ion, \u00a2I, that is the change in free energy on transferring Mg(II) from a medium of low dielectric constant (), i.e., the H 2O-PG interface ( 25-32), into one of high dielectric constant, i.e., the bulk aqueous solvent ( 78). The calculations show that \u00a2I is between -27 and -18 kJ mol -1 and U0\/PG ) 129 kJ mol -1 . That is, \u00a2I is considerably smaller than U0\/PG. A straightforward conclusion is that the diffusion of the Mg ions from the H 2O-PG interface into the bulk aqueous phase is energetically favored but might not occur. This therefore means that the calculations are consistent with the experimental observation that extensive dialysis of the PGV membranes cannot extrude the bound Mg ions out of the PG head group. In conclusion, the Mg(II)-8PG lattice concept developed in the present work is a new molecular or fractal set, e.g., a Mandelbrot set, that will be instrumental in modeling the structures and geometries that minimize the opposing forces responsible for the stability of the lipid bilayer membrane (see, for example, Tanford, C.

While each one of these has its own unique properties, EGCG, as per different studies, has been reported to be the most effective catechin showing significant antiviral activity against a broad spectrum of human and animal viruses. The antiviral properties of green tea extracts are manifold and target different areas. These include direct inactivation of the virus particles, prevention of entry into the target cell, inhibition of gene expression, inhibition of protein expression, inhibition of intestinal \u03b1-glycosidases that are important for processing glyco-conjugates of viruses, and lowering of proliferation of virus. Furtehrmore, a positive correlation between the antioxidant effects of catechins and their antiviral activities has been suggested. The growing concern about our health and the persistent fight while we are amidst the present coronavirus pandemic makes the inhibitory effect of GTCs a promising area of research.

+{"text":"An advantage of a high-order fully-actuated (HOFA) system is that there exists a controller such that a constant linear closed-loop system with an arbitrarily assignable eigenstructure can be obtained. In this paper, a generalised form of the conventional first-order strict-feedback systems (SFSs) is firstly proposed, and a recursive solution is proposed to convert equivalently the generalised SFS into a HOFA model. Then the second- and high-order SFSs are defined and their equivalent HOFA models are also derived. It is further shown that, under certain common conditions, the recursive solutions for converting the generalised SFSs into HOFA models can be rearranged into direct analytical explicit solutions. Such a high-order system approach is more direct and simpler than the first-order system approach since it avoids the process of converting firstly these second- and high-order SFSs into first-order ones for control, and can finally produce a constant linear closed-loop system. Particularly, it is more effective than the well-known method of backstepping since, for the generalised complicated SFSs with more subsystems, the method of backstepping may simply be not applicable due to more serious 'differential explosion' problem.

As a service to those many physicians and their patients who find pressurized bronchodilating aerosols helpful, we feel it our responsibility to question the conclusions stated by Taylor and Harris and the data used in their support.

Secure multiparty computation (MPC) can solve the problem of how data owners who do not trust each other jointly compute in distributed scenarios. Using MPC technique, people can not only realize data joint computing, but also ensure data privacy. In most data application scenarios, private data held by different parties can often be represented by sets. To complete the relevant statistical computations of the intersection of two private sets, we propose a suite of protocols based on MPC. These protocols can compute the statistical functions of the associated data of the intersection, including cardinality, sum, average, variance, range, and so forth, without revealing any additional information other than the result. To achieve these functions, we design a private membership test protocol with the result as the arithmetic sharing value, called the arithmetic shared private membership test (ASPMT) protocol. On the basis of the ASPMT protocol, the size and other statistics of the intersection can be computed securely and efficiently. All fundamental computations are constructed based on secret sharing and oblivious transfer techniques. Thanks to the use of precomputation technique, all protocols are highly efficient.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":233643390,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3149890912","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1002\/int.22420","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/int.22420","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Our results indicate that particular trust has a more positive influence on the dialogue between users and the operator than general trust. This means that the higher social capital that can be established among a relatively coherent group of people with similar interests and common goals is more important than the general trust arising from our assumption that all people can be trusted, even if we do not know them.

Power meters, flow meters, and temperature sensors were installed on both types of ASHP water heaters to measure the data needed to determine the electrical energies consumed, the COPs and the thermal energies gained. The results depicted that the mean month-day electrical energy consumed by the split and integrated type ASHP water heaters in summer and winter periods was 1.24 and 1.35 kWh, and 1.56 and 1.89 kWh, respectively.

+{"text":"Joint finance is money allocated by the Department of Health to NHS authorities to promote policies of inter-agency collaboration which prevent people being admitted to hospital or facilitate earlier discharge from hospital or save on NHS resources generally. Worries have been expressed that joint finance has not been used as effectively or efficiency as it might have been. This paper is concerned with the practical application of cost-effectiveness analysis to policies or schemes which typically use joint finance. Intensive case-studies with five English local authorities and seven NHS authorities attempted to apply cost-effectiveness analysis to items contained in their joint finance programmes over the period 1981-87. In some cases it was possible to find self-contained schemes which benefited from such an appraisal, but it also found that there were several features about the programme which either ruled out the case of cost-effectiveness analysis or indicated the need to analyse policies which were funded in part but not wholly by joint finance. Cost-effectiveness analysis was particularly difficult to apply where joint finance was used to fund relatively minor items such as a small, one-off grant to voluntary organisations or when it was used to increase the provision of existing services such as home help or residential care, since it is generally accepted that these services meet a well-recognised need. The most fruitful use of cost-effectiveness analysis occurred where joint finance was used to develop new services in a particular locality and comparisons were available of similar services in other localities. The general lesson of the work was that economic appraisal needs to be targeted at major service provision which may or may not use joint finance rather than just at the joint finance programme.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":167092689,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1575116457","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Observation was conducted on the following variables: weight loss, water contents, fruit softening, total soluble solids, titrable acidity, peel color and organoleptic of odor, taste and crunchyness. Result of the experiment showed that bee wax inhibited weight loss, water contents loss and the change of total soluble solids. Fruits treated with bee wax 9% of 12% had a shelf life of 4 weeks while control fruits, fruits treated with bee wax 6% and chitosan 2% had a shelf life of 3 weeks only. Among the four coating materials, bee wax 9% had the most effective effect on quality and shelf life of pineapple. Storage of fruits at cool temperature inhibited weight loss, water contents loss, fruit softening, the change of total soluble solids and the decrease of titrable acidity. Storage of fruits at cool temperature is better than storage at control room temperature.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":90472197,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2676635620","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

A number of studies have reported the formation of FIPs in the early stage of flow-induced crystallization.

After cessation of flow, some FIPs dissolve gradually and others transfer to crystals. This suggests a competition between chain relaxation and crystallization.

+{"text":"In January, 2011, sub-Pulinian eruption occurred in Shinmoedake. Before the eruption four continuous GPS sites are operated with one site of DPRI, Kyoto University, three GEONET and two NIED sites. Four continuous GPS sites were added to the existing GPS network after the eruption. Two other GPS sites were settled in April, 2011. The dense GPS network is consisted of 17 GPS sites. The deflation source of the eruption is estimated about 7km westward from Shinmoedake with 9.3km depth. The amount of deflation is about 24 M cubic meters. This deep deflation source seems to be magma chamber in this activity. Length changes are calculated on several baselines. Extension rate of baseline lengths after the eruption are almost same as that before the eruption. However, there are three period of rate change, May, August and November to December, 2011. In May, rate of baseline occurred, whose end point is located near the deep source. In August, rate of baselines decreases to almost zero, where baselines are across on the Shinmoedake. Rate of baselines also decreases to almost zero, where baselines are over the deep source. Length of these baselines became extended in August. It seems that magma supply into the deep chamber becomes lower. Measurements of crustal deformation with high precisions are essential in understanding and forecasting volcanic processes. The most precise observation of crustal deformation is achieved by means of extensometers in vaults. When observation in a vault is conducted at a suitable location to monitor volcanoes, they will provide extremely small changes in strain of the order of 10 \u2212 9 -10 \u2212 10 , which are undetectable by GPS. Disaster Prevention Research Institute, Kyoto University, has been conducting highly accurate observations of crustal strain at Isa (Yoshimatsu) Observatory (ISA). The ISA site is approximately 18 km away from the summit crater of Shinmoe-dake, which produced major eruptions in January 2011. Extensometers at ISA are composed of 30 m lengths of super-invar rods installed in tunnels in three independent horizontal directions in order to determine a horizontal strain tensor. Considering sensor resolutions and electric noise-level, accuracies of data during the activity of Shinmoe-dake were evaluated to 2x10 \u2212 10 in two directions, and 2x10 \u2212 9 in one direction. The strain data at ISA are examined in order to understand magmatic processes involved in the activity of Shinmoe-dake. We picked up remarkable changes in strain data by visual inspections, and estimate locations and sizes of sources of deformation by assuming a point source in a half-space (i.e. Mogi model). When the Mogi model is assumed, direction to a source from the observation point can be estimated even if data are available only at one site. Moreover, the size and depth of the source can be estimated if we assume certain values of horizontal distance between the site and the source. Given the horizontal distance between ISA and Shinmoe-dake is sufficiently larger than the size of magma chambers, we can expect point source approximation is sufficient enough to trace movements of pressure sources. are recorded at the time of three subplinian eruptions on 26 and 27 January, and during a magma accumulation process from 28 through 31 January. We estimated locations and sizes of sources by using only strain data at ISA and compared them with results of GPS data inversions in order to evaluate the accuracy of estimations given by strain data at ISA. In the estimation, we assume horizontal distance between ISA and the source is fixed to 15 km. Estimated depths of volume changes corresponding to three subplinian eruptions and following magma accumulation are 7.2, 7.0, 7.6 and 8.3 km, respectively, which are consistent to those inverted from GPS data. Estimated changes in volume corresponding to these events are 1.25, 1.59, 0.94 and 5.25x10 +6 m 3 , respectively, which are smaller than those estimated by other means. These results suggest that we can estimate directions to the source from ISA only by using strain data at ISA, although the quantitative estimation may be somewhat erroneous. In addition to large changes simultaneous to eruptions, small changes several hours prior to each suplinian eruption are also found in strain data at ISA. The magnitudes of the pre-eruption strain changes are of the order of 1x10 \u2212 9 , which are about 1% of the magnitudes of co-eruption changes in strain. Temporal changes in these pre-eruption changes suggest that a gradual expansion and following quick contraction occurred beneath Shinmoe-dake. Accurate estimation of locations and sizes of these deformations is difficult because changes in strain are close to detectable limits. Nevertheless, calculations considering reading errors indicate that the deformation source is on the same direction to the magma chamber from the ISA, and its depth is shallower than the magma chamber. This result proposes a hypothesis that some portion of magma in a chamber moves upward in a final stage of the eruption processes, and it is ejected from the surface of the ground. Shinmoe-dake of Kirishima volcanic group is an active volcano sitting on the border of Miyazaki and Kagoshima prefectures in Southern Kyushu, japan. It erupted in the beginning of 2011; this was the first magmatic eruption for the last three centuries. The volcano was firstly formed between 25Ka and 15Ka. After thousands of years of quiescence, it became active with a sub -Plinian eruption during 1716 and 1717. Then it entered again a period of quiescence, but the signs of increased activity was suggested by a series of small phreatic eruptions in 1991, 2008,2009, and2010. Finally, a magmatic eruption began in January 2011. Before this eruption, the crater was of bowl-shape having a small lake at its bottom. After the eruption, the crater is almost completely filled by newly extruded lava whose surface is almost reached to the level of the lowest part of the crater rim. In this eruption, the extrusion of lava was completed in a short period of the first stage, then, it was followed by repeating small explosive eruptions on the surface of the lava. Those explosive activities became less-frequent in recent days. Continuous GPS observations around Kirishima volcanic area has been conducted by the GSI and others since mid-1990s. The GPS data clearly indicated regional expansion of the western part of Kirishima during one year before eruption. A sharp contraction was observed during eruption. Immediately after the eruption a resumed expansion continued until recently. Those crustal deformations are considered to be a direct reflection of the underground magma migration activity. The horizontal and vertical displacements derived by GPS are well explained by a pre-and post- eruptive inflation and sin-eruptive deflation of the same magmatic pressure source at the depth several killometers northwest of Shinmoe-dake crater.. The GPS data also suggest that almost the same amount of magma has been already accumulated in the magma chamber. eruptitions are of deep concern among scientific and civil protection community.. the basic that will be for the scientific and civil protection data of surface topography. the type of is significantly controlled by the surface topography, it to acquire the 3-D digital topographic data an eruption it is also to keep the data when the shape of the surface is changed by any volcanic activity. a we measurement the temporal change of the surface topography of preliminary gravimeters were carried out in March and in August 2011 and is planned in March 2012 at 23 stations around the Kirishima volcanoes. The measurements are tied to the absolute gravity station so that we may derive absolute gravity values at each station. The result in Aug. 2011 also indicated significant contribution of groudwarter disturbance to the observed gravity (Ueki et al. 2011). We shall also describe the result in March 2012. Volcanic tremors are indicators providing clues for magma behaviour, which is strongly related to volcanic eruptions and activity. Detection of spatial and temporal variations of volcanic tremors is important for understanding the mechanism of volcanic eruptions. However, short-term temporal variations within a tremor event have not always been previously detected by seismic array observations around volcanoes. Here, we show that volcanic tremor sources were activated at the top of the conduit (i.e. the crater) and at its lower end by analyzing seismograms from two dense seismic array about 3.5 km from the Shinmoedake volcano, mount Kirishima, Japan. We observed changes in the seismic ray direction during a volcanic tremor sequence through MUSIC spectrum processing and inferred two major sources of the tremor from the slowness vectors of the approaching waves. One was located in a shallow region beneath the Shinmoedake crater. The other was found in a direction N30W from one of the arrays, pointing to a location above a pressure source. The time evolution of the tremor suggests that instability occurs at the edge of the conduit due to magma intrusion. Shinmoedake at Kirishima volcanoes had a small eruption on Jan. 19, 2011 and one week later on Jan. 26m the volcano started magmatic eruption. In the Shinmoedake 2011 eruptive activity, there were altogether 13 explosive eruptions until March 2011 including sub-plinian eruptions occurred on Jan. 26 and 27. The number of smaller eruptions also decreased by the end of March and the eruptions sporadically occurred until first week of Sept. 2011. From Jan. 27, 2011, we started sulfur dioxide flux measurements from the volcano using SO 2 monitoring system based on a compact UV spectrometer (COMPUSS). The flux measurements were carried out by traverse method. The sulfur dioxide flux was retrieved by multiplying the sulfur dioxide amount in the cross-section of the plume and the plume speed.

The current to effective field conversion efficiency, which is characterized using both the nonlinear magnetoresistance and second-order planar Hall effect methods, is comparable to the efficiency in typical heavy metal\/ferromagnet bilayers. We argue that the torque is caused by spin rotation in the vicinity of the surface via impurity scattering in the presence of a strong spin-orbit coupling.

+{"text":"Connected-vehicle system is an important component of smart cities. The complete benefits of connected-vehicle technologies need the real-time information of all vehicles and other road users. However, the existing connected-vehicle deployments obtain the real-time status of connected vehicles, but without knowing the unconnected traffic since there are still many unconnected vehicles and pedestrians on the roads. Therefore, it is urgent to find an approach to collect the high-resolution real-time status of unconnected road users. When it is difficult for all vehicles, pedestrians, and bicyclists to broadcast their real-time status in the near future, enhancing the traffic infrastructures to actively sense and broadcast each road user's status is an intuitive solution to fill the data gap. This paper introduces a new-generation LiDAR-enhanced connected infrastructures that can actively sense the high-resolution status of surrounding traffic participants with roadside LiDAR sensors and broadcast connected-vehicle messages through DSRC roadside units. The system architecture, the LiDAR data processing procedure, the data communication, and the first pilot implementation at an intersection in Reno, Nevada are included in this paper. This research is the start of the new-generation connected infrastructures serving connected\/autonomous vehicles with the roadside LiDAR sensors. It will accelerate the deployment of the connected network for the smart cities to improve traffic safety, mobility, and fuel efficiency.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":195774450,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2951592577","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/ACCESS.2019.2923421","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The latest generations of these sonars have yet to realize their full potentials when it comes to detecting small objects such as mine like objects. This paper will first review the characteristics and capabilities of interferometric sidescan sonars and multibeam echosounders in order to highlight their strengths and weaknesses with respect to small object detection, and secondly, data from actual field surveys using each of each of these sonars will be examined in order to illustrate their small object detection efficacy. Next, this paper will present recommended techniques to optimize the probability of detection using each of these systems. These techniques include pre-survey preparations, survey execution, and post processing techniques such as mosaicking, coregistered imagery with bathymetry, and temporal imagery comparison. Finally conceptual 2D and 3D \"Gapless\" sidescan mine hunting sonars will be introduced, based on currently available technology, in order to illustrate that significant improvements in the Mine Hunting process are available. I. Introduction Naval Mine Counter Measures (MCM), more specifically Mine Hunting (MH), have failed to capitalize on some of the dramatic technological advances that seafloor mapping sonars have achieved in the last five to ten years. This failure has kept the process of running sidescan sonar surveys inefficient, wasting the time of both personnel and platform resources. The reasons for this oversight are varied, but one predominant factor is the very nature of the sonars themselves. The advanced capabilities and sophistication of modern seafloor mapping sonars has resulted in the need for highly trained and specialized operators, normally hydrographers, which is incompatible with the modern Mine Warfare (MW) personnel (operator) model. Although today's sailors are motivated and intelligent, the amount of time and resources required to make an operator proficient on modern seafloor mapping sonars is measured in years which, by far, exceeds the time a specific operator is usually performing the MH function. In order for new, more capable technology to be successfully assimilated and fully exploited in a MH role, the HumanMachine Interface (HMI) must be straightforward and intuitive.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":55319823,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2418690271","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"This thesis focuses on the characteristics of high dry solids black liquor sprays under in-furnace conditions, more specifically, on how the atomization process starts and the nature of the initial properties such as velocity, opening angle, and trajectory of a high dry solids content black liquor spray, which is sprayed well above its atmospheric boiling point. The experiments were carried out in operating recovery boiler furnaces. The results were compared with fullscale spraying chamber tests. The information and measurement data of black liquor spraying achieved in the furnace environment give valuable information for furnace modeling, boiler design and control, and help to understand the infurnace processes involved. Validated initial data for CFD calculations is essential. The spray research under in-furnace conditions is introduced as a very useful method of studying black liquor spraying practice with real black liquor, in a real environment with industrial-scale nozzles. The furnace endoscope, developed during this work, made this possible. It was the first attempt to systematically obtain information about high dry solids black liquor spraying under in-furnace conditions. Flashing inside the nozzle was found to be a factor key to the whole spraying process of high dry solids black liquor. It has a major role in spray disintegration and initial velocity, both of which correlate very well with the final drop size and shape. A dry solids content of approximately 75% was observed to be the limit that forced boiler operators to change their spraying practice from non-flashing to flashing mode. Dimensionless velocity can be used in categorizing the disintegration processes. Regardless of the disintegration mechanism, it is possible to find the dominating frequency in disintegrating spray with techniques based on image analysis.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":55114150,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2601347841","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In the early stages of the disease, black necrotic spots appear on the surface of tubers. As the disease progresses, the spots expand into black scurf-like lesions, and exhibit various degrees of blackening, corking and rifting. It is also characteristic of the disease that no symptom is recognizable on the above ground part. Numerous bacteria and fungi isolated from the lesions of diseased tubers did not cause the disease in greenhouse and laboratory tests. Phytotoxic substances were detected in soils where black scurf is just prevalent but not from soils free from the disease. The results of the bioassay of soil toxins revealed a close correlation between the time or the depth of maximum toxicity of soil extracts and the time or the soil depth of the occurrence of the disease in the field. A number of carbonyl compounds which were toxic to radish seedlings were isolated from the water extracts of sick soil, and were identified as acetaldehyde, furfuraldehyde and iso-valeraldehyde. Black scurf was particularly severe in the field treated previously with nematicides. Increased amount of soil toxins was also proved in these nematicide-treated fields. Heavy applications of organic manures such as chicken manure, and abnormal rise of soil temperature in the growing season of tubers, one of predestined impediments in agriculturally utilizing sand dune, could be considered as the occasional cause of black scurf. Thus, an explanation of the etiology of the disease on the basis of volatile aldehydes formed during the anaerobic decomposition of manures and humus in the soil was suggested. (Received December 30, 1968) Introduction Black scurf of Chinese yam, Dioscorea japonica THUNB., a disease of hitherto unknown etiology, has occurred in the sand dune field of Tottori, Japan, during recent years.

In the early stages of the disease, the tuber surface is dotted with black necrotic spots (Fig. 1, A and B). As the disease progresses, the spots expand into the black scurf-like lesions, the lateral roots die and are sloughed off. The lesions generally appear to be limited on the surface of the tuber at approximately 15-25cm deep from soil surface, and exhibit various degrees of blackening, corking and rifting (Fig. 1, C). However, the damage was confined to the epidermal tissue of tubers. It is also a characteristic of the disease that no symptom is recognizable on the above ground part. Diseased tubers generally grow successively and survive to maturity, but produce various kinds of deformed tubers which are not commercially acceptable. Some symptoms of this disease agreed quite well with those for certain manifestations of Rhizoctonia-infected sweet potatoes. However, the cause was neither designated nor was attributed to the actions of Rhizoctonia spp. and any other organism. From field observations and laboratory experiments, we have speculated that it was due to a certain toxin brought about by abnormal break-down of organic materials in the soils.

+{"text":"Background and Objectives: Significant progress in developing European national forest inventory (NFI) systems could ensure accurate evaluations of gross annual increment (GAI) and its components by employing direct measurements. However, the use of NFI data is insufficient for increasing the efficiency of forest management and the use of wood, as well as for meeting sustainable forestry needs. Specification of forest characteristics, such as GAI and its components, identification of the main factors that impact forest growth, accumulation of wood, and natural losses are among the key elements promoting the productivity of forest stands and possibilities of rational use of wood in large forest areas. The aims of this research were (a) to validate the quality of forest statistics provided by a standwise forest inventory (SFI) and (b) to reveal the potential benefits of rational wood use at the country level through the analysis of forest management results, which are based on GAI, including its components derived from the NFI. Materials and Methods: SFI and NFI data from 1998\u20132017 were collected from 5600 permanent sample plots and used to evaluate the main forest characteristics. Potential wood use was estimated based on the assumption that 50\u201370% of the total GAI is accumulated for final forest use. Results: Mean growing stock volume (GSV) is underestimated by 7\u201314% on average in the course of SFI. Therefore, continuous monitoring of the yield changes in forest stands, detection of factors negatively affecting yield and its accumulation, and regulation of these processes by silviculture measures could increase potential forest use in Lithuania. Conclusions: Implementation of sample-based NFI resulted in an improvement of forest characteristics and led to an increase in GSV and GAI. Continuously gathered data on GAI and its components are a prerequisite for efficient forest management and control of the use of wood.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":224967241,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3088563418","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3390\/F11101039","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

A close relationship was evident between monocarbonyl level and the flavour or age of the lactic casein. Furthermore, the greater flavour stability of rennet casein and skim-milk powder was coupled with reduced monocarbonyl content. Fractionation of monocarbonyls into classes and individual compounds has shown that the higher levels in lactic casein compared with other low-fat products can be accounted for by a high level of acetone. The absence of appreciable quantities of other odd-numbered methyl ketones suggests that either acetone is derived from a non-lipid constituent of acid casein or decarboxylation of acetoacetate is specifically catalysed at acid pH. All methyl ketones identified in these low-fat dairy products were present in subthreshold concentrations. Saturated and unsaturated aldehydes were present at similar levels in stored lactic casein, rennet casein and skim-milk powder samples irrespective of their degree of musty or stale flavour.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":86200087,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2132923115","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1017\/S0022029900014321","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

By using descriptive analysis, it is concluded that Ibn Miskawaih's Islamic psychology is studied through the discourse of al-quwwah al-ghad\u0101biyyah which affects human feelings and thoughts as an indicator of the creation of suffering, depression, and sadness. In order to overcome the mental illness faced by modern humans, Ibn Miskawaih through his philosophical discourse on the soul views the problems of suffering, depression, and sadness based on the anxiety of the human soul in thinking and stimulating everything in reality. The soul is the essence of human existence that affects human actions, thoughts, and feelings so that individuals must practice the perfection of their essence through al-quwwah an-natiqah. In addition to offering a philosophical discourse on the soul as a mental illness rehabilitation process, Ibn Miskawaih's paradigm also responds to the views of western psychologists, such as Aaron Beck and Sigmund Freud who assess mental illness can be treated through social relationships. As a result, human mental rehabilitation is only studied materially, without seeing the essence that is seen as the core of human existence in reality.

The longitudinal nature of our data allows us to estimate individual fixed-effects regressions and thereby control for all selection on time-invariant (un)observables. Upon retirement, individuals spend less on ready-made food, fuel, and clothes and more in pharmacies, which is consistent with reductions in work-related expenses and increases in health spending. However, individuals also spend less on other consumption categories, such as sports and activities and fine dining. Furthermore, we are in a unique position to document the effect of retirement on credit-card, checking, and savings account balances: we find that individuals delever by reducing consumer debt and increasing liquid savings.

We extend this calculation to non-zero magnetic field, showing that in this case this very large deviation disappears and we try to motivate this finding in light of a geometrical interpretation of the scaled cumulant generating function.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":202573064,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2991158777","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1103\/PhysRevResearch.1.033116","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":"1909.06196"},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Subsequently, RNA was extracted from the tissues and the purified preparations were fractionated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The electrophoretic patterns of the rapidly labelled RNA changed during the three developmental stages. The incorporation of both uridine and the methyl groups from methionine was highest in the'heavy'RNA species of the 14\u2010day embryonic nerve during the 0.5 and 1.0 h incubation periods. In contrast, in the nerves of 3\u2010day\u2010old chicks during a 0.5 h pulse with both precursors, methylation was almost entirely limited to the transfer RNA species. Furthermore, the incorporation of uridine in the nerves from 3\u2010day\u2010old animals revealed the presence of a heterogeneous population of rapidlylabelled, unmethylated species of RNA, most of which migrated between the smaller ribosomal RNA and transfer RNA components of the bulk RNA. The pattern of uridine incorporation and the methylation of the rapidly\u2010labelled RNA of the 17\u2010day embryonic nerve represented a transitional state between that of the 14\u2010day embryos and that of the 3\u2010day\u2010old chicks.

+{"text":"mathematical thinking John McLean Yasuda Women's University, Japan Tests of secondary school students' mathematical aptitude have long played a central role in large-scale international comparative studies. While some researchers argue that this trend is due to the fact that mathematics possesses an agreed body of knowledge which can be easily compared between nations, a more plausible explanation comes from the undeniable significance that mathematical aptitude plays in commerce, industry, technology and science on which the wealth of all industrialised nations are built. Bearing that significance in mind, it is therefore no surprise that Japan's economic boom in the latter half of the twentieth century was preceded by a movement in its educational system typified by measurably high standards of mathematical aptitude. Extensive research into this phenomenon commonly concludes that it has been the result of constructivist pedagogy or unique socio-cultural circumstances; however, in this paper I present empirical evidence that challenges that assumption. I argue that much of what researchers in the West know about mathematics education in Japan has been coloured by linguistic barriers and the official line presented by Japan's Ministry of Education. More to the point, based on my research findings, I explain how factors fundamental to Japan's educational success can be assimilated into almost any educational system. The West has long shown an interest in Japan's educational system: as far back as 1900, just thirty years after Japan emerged from feudal rule, the Office of Special Reports of the Board of Education in London published a paper on 'Commercial Education in Japan'. However, prior to Japan's economic boom in the 1980s, the West's interest in Japan's educational system revolved around a belief that it was something that needed shaping and improving, and not something to learn from (Cummings et al., 1986). Examination of Japan's educational achievements reveals that while students rarely excel on international tests of science or literacy\u2014first or foreign language, they consistently excel on tests of mathematics. In fact, evidence suggests that Japan's lower secondary school students have outperformed their G8 counterparts in every major test of mathematical aptitude conducted since 1964. Unfortunately, however, according to Horio (1990), the involvement of Japan's Ministry of Education in Western research aimed at understanding this phenomenon has led to a body of research that is either misinformed or prejudiced. One such example of this is the unsubstantiated claims made by Her Majesty's Inspectorate (1991: 26) from the UK who reported that 'the West has little to learn from the Japanese and their education system because of, among other reasons, cultural differences and their more homogeneous society.' In order to understand the significance of factors that have led to Japan's lower secondary school students achieving a high level of mathematical aptitude, I first briefly detail the cognitive factors fundamental to the development mathematical aptitude. I explain how mathematical aptitude can be measured and consider how the wealth of a nation can be impacted by the standard of mathematical aptitude achieved by its lower secondary school students. I then turn my attention to mathematics education in Japan and show how various factors such as the intervention of Japan's Ministry of Education have led to a substantial amount of unclear and conflicting research findings. In the second part of this paper, I present independently collected survey data relating to the formal and non-formal mathematics education of lower secondary school students in 109 state, national and private schools in Hiroshima prefecture. I explain how my findings show that Japan's high instances of mathematical aptitude are not the product of sophisticated constructivist pedagogy as many believe but rather the outcome of a cognitive process that has occurred due to a combination of formal and non-formal mathematics instruction. Finally, I conclude this paper with a tentative proposal for how to create a similar learning environment within a formal educational system as a means of raising mathematics standards. In spite of the fact that various schools of thought currently exist with regard to what pedagogical techniques best encourage the development of mathematical aptitude, common ground can still be found in the cognitive process\u2014hereinafter referred to as \u2014that is believed to constitute that aptitude. Barnard (2002: 115), for example, defines as: ...proceeding via operations involving a small number of 'items' at any one time, an important feature is the phenomenon in which a section of mathematical structure may be mentally held as a single unit, processing an interiority that can be subsequently expanded without loss of detail and trigger connections with other parts of cognitive structure. Tall (1994) similarly explains that involves the construction of a mental object that can be manipulated in the mind by analogy with actions on objects experienced in the external world. More comprehensively, I would define as the cognitive process that occurs when consolidated mathematical knowledge is applied indirectly to a problem by mapping the conceptual structure of one set of ideas into another (See Figure 1).

The initial report consisted of a process evaluation of the implementation of the PTP and TVU with a short term outcome assessment of probationers' violation rates during their 120 day participation in the PTP and TVU. The following document is an addendum to that report. Of these program participants, 917 (51%) were in the PTP and 889 (49%) have been in the TVU.

To that end, the accuracy of the self\u2010assessments of 3588 first\u2010year students enrolled in a post\u2010secondary institution was studied throughout a semester during which each student made approximately 80 self\u2010assessments about his or her own learning process. These self\u2010assessments were then compared with multiple judgements by peers and tutors. The overall correlations between the scores of self\u2010, peer and tutor assessments suggest weak to moderate accuracy of student self\u2010assessment ability. The findings also reveal an ability effect; students judged as more academically competent were able to self\u2010assess with higher accuracy than their less competent peers. Comparing the accuracy of student self\u2010assessment averaged over four consecutive periods indicates that the accuracy does not improve over time. In a second study, a questionnaire aimed at eliciting student's beliefs about the effects of self\u2010assessment on their learning was administered to 936 first\u2010year students. Based on their responses, sub\u2010groups of students were identified: those who either believed in the usefulness of self\u2010assessment or did not.

+{"text":"Rubidium fluoride and niobium metal-containing foam samples (rods and sheets) were prepared using two foam sytems: (1) hydrophilic polyurethanes prepared from W.R. Grace Co.'s Hypol prepolymers and (2) polyimides prepared from Monsanto Company's Skybond polyimide resin. The first system was used only for preparation of rubidium fluoride-containing foams while the second was used for both rubidium fluoride and niobium-containing foams. The niobium metal could readily be incorporated into the polyimide foam during molding, to produce foam sheets of the required dimensions and density. The rubidium fluoride-containing polyimide foams were preferably prepared by first rendering the molded polyimide foam hydrophilic with a postcuring treatment, then absorbing the rubidium fluoride from water solution. Similarly, rubidium fluoride was absorbed into the hydrophilic polyurethanes from water solution. Since the high reactive rubidium metal could not be employed, rubidium fluoride, which is very hygroscopic, was used instead, primarily because of its high rubidium content (approximately 82 weight percent). This was important in view of the low total densities and the high weight percentage rubidium required in the foam samples. In addition, at the later request of LLL, a block of rigid Hypol hydrophilic polyurethane foam (with a density of approximately 0.04 g\/cm\/sup 3\/ and cellmore\u00a0\u00bb sizes = or <0.2 mm) was prepared without any metal or metal compounds in it.

In this regard, it is reasonable to choose not the strategies, allowing us to minimize costs (or to maximize profit), but rather strategies, slightly yielding in terms of expected economic indicators, but significantly enhancing the quality of port services.

In order to achieve optimum ratio of listed indicators, the methods of multicriteria optimization were used in the work. A fleet can include both stationary and mobile equipment.

+{"text":"Dead-reckoning via encoders on wheeled-mobile robots is a simple but inaccurate method to estimate position. The major drawback of encoders is wheel slippage errors that accumulate over time. This problem is often addressed by using additional sensors such as compass, gyroscope, or GPS. This paper details the integration and effectiveness of a relatively low-cost solution using an electronic compass to reduce positioning error on a wheeled tricycle mobile robot. A customised Visual Studio program has been developed to adjust the settings of the electronic compass and integrate it with the Visual Studio based robot control system. The electronic compass heading data is fused with the encoder odometry heading data in three different ways: simple fusion, linear weighted fusion, and Kalman filter fusion. Simple fusion and linear weighted fusion rely on parameters determined from angular acceleration and angular velocity, respectively. The Kalman filter uses variance data for the encoders and electronic compass to determine an optimal heading. Experiments have been conducted in an indoor corridor environment to evaluate and compare the various fusion methods. Position error is successfully reduced and is sufficient to locate the robot within the corridor.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":247887380,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1139\/dsa-2021-0049","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/cdnsciencepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1139\/dsa-2021-0049","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

This strain grew well and produced biogas with an average hydrogen concentration of 60% (v\/v) in the Reinforced Clostridial Media (RCM). To study the basic nutrient requirements, three main nutrients namely peptone (Pep), yeast extracts (Yes) and glucose (Glu) were chosen as factors, using an experimental design. The experiments were run according to 23 Full Factorial Design, followed by the Response Surface Method (RSM). The fermentation was performed in 30 ml serum bottles with 20 ml working volume in a sterile and anaerobic condition at 37\u00b0C with 5% inoculums. The results from the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) for the factorial design showed that all the three factors had significantly affected the gas production by the C. butyricum. The response surface plot of the gas production by C. butyricum showed that the gas production could be enhanced by increasing peptone and yeast extract concentrations up to 15 g\/l and 24 g\/l respectively, without showing any substrate inhibition. Meanwhile, the glucose concentration showed an optimum at the middle point (8 g\/l) with possible substrate inhibition at a high concentration (12 g\/l).

+{"text":"Introduction Unlimited number of replicas of the original content can be made from unprotected digital content. This makes the content creators and content owners more anxious about the copyrights management of their digital contents. Concern for the protection of copyrighted digital intellectual properties, such as computer programs, have been high, since 1980s. Today, well-established cryptographic algorithms can resolve many of these issues. However, these solutions can only protect the digital contents if they never leave the digital domain, or remains in some well defined data formats. When multimedia content starts to be digitized, a new problem arises. Normally, the form of the data does not have significant impact on multimedia contents such as video or audio. The visible or audible information can be transferred into other formats or even passing through analog connections without significant change to the value of the contents. This situation calls for technological solutions to be used in addition to the cryptography technology. Digital watermarking technology has been actively studied by several technical institutions since mid-1990s.[1,2,3] A few companies also started offering products and services for the purpose of copyrights protection and the tracking of unauthorized duplication of digital still images.[4, 5]. This group of technologies provides methods to \"imprint\" additional data or messages into multi-media contents such as still image, video and audio data. Generally, the imprinted data is invisible (or inaudible) to the ordinary users, and is difficult to be separated from the host media. The imprinted data can be extracted from the imprinted host media, as long as the degradation of the host media is within certain limitation. This desirable characteristic makes digital watermark an ideal technology to carry the signature of its owner, identification code or copy control information that can travel with the content itself. In Section 2, three practical applications of digital watermarking technologies are discussed. In Section 3, some details about the DVD copy control application for DVD are presented, including the standardization activity and the overview of a technology proposal to the DVD Copy Protection Technical Working Group (CPTWG). Applications of Digital Watermarks Digital watermarking technology for rights management One of the traditional applications of the watermark is copyright protection. The primary reason for using watermarks is to identify the owner of the content by an invisible hidden \"mark\" that is imprinted into the image. In many cases, the watermark is used in addition to the content encryption, where the encryption provides the secure distribution method from the content owners to the receivers, and the watermark offers the content owners the opportunity to trace the contents and detect the unauthorized use or duplications. Without watermarking, there is no way to extend the control of the content owner once the content leaves the protected digital domain and is released to the user. Digital watermark is used to extend the protection and provide the opportunities for the content owners to protect the rights and properties of the electronic distributed contents. The signature of the owner, content ID and usage limitation can be imprinted into the contents, and stay with the contents as far as it travels. This mechanism extends the opportunity of protecting the contents after the release of the contents to the open environment. The major technical requirements for this application are as follows; * The watermark does not incur visible (or audible) artifacts to the ordinary users. * The watermark is independent of the data format. * The information carried by the watermark is robust to content manipulations, compression, and so on. * The watermark can be detected without the un-watermarked original content. \u2026","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":12993040,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"157634891","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.28945\/607","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"http:\/\/www.inform.nu\/Articles\/Vol2\/v2n4p107-111.pdf","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

This study sought to investigate the impact of information and communications technologies (ICTs) on academic library services provision and operations, as well as how ICTs have influenced the use of library information resources by undergraduate and postgraduate students at the University of the Western Cape. The study draws attention to the importance of implementing ICT policies and practices for library operations and practices bounded by the technology acceptance model (TAM). Findings from the study indicate the emergence of ICTs in libraries has drastically changed the dynamics of library operations and services in areas including the online public access catalogue (OPAC), wireless networks, library marketing and online reference services. The findings also revealed that although the use of ICTs in academic libraries enables libraries to offer faster and more efficient services, challenges and obstacles are prevalent, including a lack of training in ICTs and insufficient ICT infrastructure.

+{"text":"Rising number of fatalities caused by Coronary Artery Disease is a major concern for the public as well as the health industry. Furthermore, diagnostic methods like angiography are expensive and unaffordable for those who are not well-off. Also, angiography is bothersome for the patient due to allergic responses, renal damage, and bleeding where the catheter is inserted. The researchers in literature proposed the machine learning-based approaches for the detection of Coronary Artery Disease. But, these techniques have low accuracy. Thus, there is a scope for optimization of these techniques. The objective of this paper is to develop a machine learning system for the early detection of Coronary Artery Disease early. Also, it employs optimization methods viz. Particle Swarm Optimization, and Firefly Algorithm with Principle Component Analysis based feature extraction and decision tree-based classification. The proposed technique reports an accuracy of 95.3%. Thus, the technological solution may be used as an automatic diagnostic aid.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":257121485,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.12720\/jait.14.1.66-76","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.12720\/jait.14.1.66-76","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In one dimension, the standard platform of these studies has been the conventional Kitaev wire and its realizations. In this work, we study the edge states in coupled p-wave platforms in 1D, in the presence of experimentally relevant perturbations, like a Zeeman field and s-wave SC. Firstly, we show that the unperturbed coupled p-wave setup by itself can have two types of Majorana edge states, depending on the value of the effective onsite potential. We show that additional components like Zeeman field and s-wave term can cause transitions to different symmetry classes, both topologically trivial or non-trivial, and change the nature of these edge states. In the presence of the perturbations, we show that there are 3 symmetry classes when the effective p-wave pairing is equal between the spin species, and 6 for the second kind, when the pairing differs by a phase $\\pi$ between the two. Some of these classes are topologically non-trivial. Further, we explore the nature of subgap states when we have a junction between two such topological setups and their corresponding behaviour with the phase of the p-wave order parameter. Our work provides a theoretical framework of the different ways to get non-trivial topological classes in coupled p-wave nanowire setup, using experimentally feasible perturbations, and the nature of subgap states across junctions of these platforms.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":212747641,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3011175539","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":"2003.08299"},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The remarkable feature of the developed coupling device is the accuracy in PD signal measuring and the ability in eliminating noise signal Therefore, In the AC signal measuring part, the proper impedance was chosen to achieve appropriate voltage divide ratio and accuracy in PD signal measuring. In PD signal measuring part, the value of the components must be chosen properly to achieve the determined Upper and Lower limit frequency. In this part, noise signal elimination must be considered to gain less effect to PD signal, otherwise the PD signal waveform will distort. From intensive study, three different coupling device circuits were designed and constructed. The circuit of the first and second coupling device are collected from literatures. It is found that the PD signal was interfered by the testing AC voltage signal. Therefore, the last one was developed to overcome this problem. The last developed coupling device has the lower and the upper cut off frequencies of 30 kHz and 20 MHz, respectively.

To apply an appropriate classifier in health state probability estimation for prediction of machine remnant life, a comparative study on intelligent fault classification for four fault conditions with five different fault progressed data from high pressure cryogenic pumps were conducted. Five different classifiers, such as support vector machines (SVMs), radial basis function neural networks, random forest and linear regression, were used to evaluate their effectiveness for the health state estimation process. Two sets of impeller-rub data were employed for the prediction of pump remnant life based on estimation of discrete health state probability with feature selection technique using the outstanding capability of SVM.

In this last respect Vrooman points out that the head of B&O was not very successful in finding a solution to the company's accumulated debt. In any case, after 1941, when Willard left the B&O's presidency, the company's management practices were incapable of achieving better results than those obtained by the previous team. From that moment onwards the progressive management techniques put into practice during the mature years of the company ceased to have the same virtues that had been shown up to then. This decline is evident not only in the economic sphere, where other modes of transport offered competition, but above all in the loss of dynamism in management caused by the loss of Willard. The book focuses on Willard's skill in taking decisions covering all aspects of the company. The diffusion of a corporate culture, which in the B&O meant relating the human factor to the objectives of the company, was the basis of Willard's strategy. Union agreements, the role of women in the company, departmental co-ordination and initiatives taken by Willard to overcome problems created by the Great Depression and competition benefited from his skill. Vrooman's book praises the principles of personal management and of objectives intimately linked with the actions of certain gifted people. Putting particular emphasis on the personal virtues of individuals, it rejects the validity of other, more scientific ways of management which were created, taught and applied by academic institutions and work groups. The concept of 'learning by doing' is fundamental in the historical explanation of the principles of entrepreneurial success but specific academic training was probably more important in the large railway companies. The techniques and know-how acquired in this stage of professional training were basic in the development of skills on the part of technicians and executives. Vrooman's work perhaps puts too much emphasis on the value of the individual who, it must be admitted, introduced many original ideas. However, there are areas of shadow cast across his career. These are not dealt with in the book. Willard's manner of controlling the excessive risk accumulated by the company's debt was not brilliant. The author glosses over this. Despite these criticisms the book has one great merit. It centres on the history of a railroad company and emphasises the innovations introduced by such companies which were later used and adapted by other industrial sectors. Moreover the book appraises corporate culture and how it arose, through what mechanisms it developed and was accepted by the employees. The workers were the human capital, and their training and participation have been to a large extent forgotten in recent studies of business history. The book has the virtue of focusing on their importance for the B&O railroad company.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":164995885,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2574165311","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1177\/002252669801900118","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Such approaches have been replaced with adversarial models using deep convolutional networks specifically tailored for GPU computing. Nevertheless, motivated by recent successes in GPU-accelerated Genetic Programming (GP) and given the well-established disposition of expression-based solutions towards image evolution, the prospect of bridging the gap between using symbolic expressions as generators for GANs, instead of neural networks, seems enticing. In this paper, we propose a novel GAN model called TGPGAN, where the traditional generator network is replaced with a GP approach. The generator iteratively evolves a population of expressions that are then passed to the discriminator module for training with traditional backpropagation methods. Our experimental results show that it is possible to achieve comparable results to a typical Deep Convolutional GAN while benefiting from the flexibility enabled by an expression-based genotype. Some experimentation has also been performed to mitigate the computational cost of our model.

+{"text":"Participants involved in federated learning based urban sensing tasks are prone to unknowingly leak sensitive information to the central server or an adversary. Secure multiparty computation is a promising solution for protection against inference attacks without compromising on application model accuracy. However, existing secure multiparty computation protocols are resource intensive as they require multiple communication and computation rounds between participants and the central server. For urban sensing applications, where application model is usually a spatiotemporal map over a large area, this is an even more challenging problem to deal with. To achieve real time sensing using frequent model updates, existing state-of-the-art secure multiparty computation protocols such as Turbo-Aggregate shall not be feasible. This paper presents an optimised Turbo-Aggregate protocol, we call Resource Adaptive (ReAd) Turbo-Aggregate, which is a secure multiparty computation scheme designed specifically for urban sensing applications where different participants have varying computation and communication resources. It is an adaptive scheme which grants the flexibility of modifying the space and time granularity of the application model in each round of aggregation to suit the participants' network, processing, and battery resources while retaining the features and security of the parent Turbo-Aggregate protocol. The proposed approach is verified with simulation experiments for the noise mapping task of urban sensing applications.

While factors affecting code change acceptance have been investigated in the past, solutions to decrease the code review lifetime are less understood.

We study the temporal characteristics of half a million code reviews hosted on Gerrit and Phabricator, starting from the first response, to a decision to accept or reject the changes, and until the changes are merged into a target branch. We identified two types of time delays: (a) the wait time from the proposal of code changes until first response, and (b) the wait time between acceptance and merging. Our study indicates that reducing the time between acceptance and merging has the potential to speed up Phabricator code reviews by 29-63%. Small code changes and changes made by authors with a large number of previously accepted code reviews have a higher chance of being immediately accepted, without code review iterations.

Individual food sufficiency is measured by the total calorie intake of each individual divided by the Recommended Dietary Allowance of calories. This is divided by the household total of this variable to get the individual's share in household food resources. We used data on 583 families, collected in 1995. We first ran wage regressions corrected for selectivity and imputed potential wages of all individuals. We then used the imputed wages as explanatory variables, in addition to other socioeconomic variables, in regressions explaining the individual's share in the household food resources. Different regressions were estimated for male household heads, female household heads or spouses, and children in three different age groups. We failed to find that the potential wages of the household head and spouse reflect their bargaining power towards each other, but we did find that the economic position of women has a positive effect on the relative nutritional status of their children. Pregnancy and breastfeeding had negative effects on women's food allocation, implying that such women are at higher risk of malnutrition. We found that in poorer families children tend to be in a better nutritional status relative to their parents. We also found that adult female children are in a better nutritional status than their male counterparts, and that birth order has a positive effect on nutritional status among the youngest children. The number of children in the family has a negative effect on each child's food allocation, implying exploitation of children by other household members in families with more children.

The highlight is on the scholarship that has sought to deconstruct genders, and the binary framing of man\/woman and male\/female roles and relationships, through a detailed desk review, this research has sought to draw attention to the emergence of geographical bodies that force the academic world to recognize the need to pay more attention to its distinctiveness.

Here we describe a comprehensive study of the average meteorological conditions during SSWs with a special focus on the general contribution of planetary (PW) and gravity (GW) waves as primary coupling mechanisms between lower and upper atmosphere. The average meteorological conditions in the MLT during SSWs were analyzed using a superposed epoch analysis (Denton et al., 2019) of meteor radar measurements for stations in the northern (NH: Collm, Kiruna, Sodankyla, CMOR) and the southern hemisphere (SH: Rio Grande, Davis, Rothera) for the altitude range of 80&#8211;100 km Using the adaptive spectral filtering method (Stober et al., 2021), we study in detail PW and GW characteristics in addition to measured zonal and meridional wind components in a time period from 2000 to 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\" align=\"justify\"><span lang=\"en-GB\">In the NH the zonal wind is typically decreasing from around two weeks before the SSW onset, corresponding to an increased PW activity. Around the SSW onset, latitudinal differences in the zonal wind component as well as the PW activity can be seen. In the weeks before the SSW onset, the stations in the NH also show an increased level of GW kinetic energy. The meridional wind at the NH stations fluctuates with a periodicity of about 10 days before and around the onset. In contrast to previous studies (e.g. Yasui et al., 2016), the measurements in the SH are consistent with the inter-hemispheric coupling hypothesis. The expected downward shift of GW drag (K&#246;rnich and Becker, 2010) was reproduced by a downward travelling layer of enhanced GW activity at Davis and Rio Grande. Finally, the role of the terdiurnal tide in the GW energy composite is considered.<\/span><\/p>","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":245302162,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.5194\/dach2022-84","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/elib.dlr.de\/185919\/2\/DACH2022-84-print.pdf","status":"GREEN"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"In 1969, our group first reported that the intravenous administration of phentolamine can improve cardiac performance in patients with heart failure. 1 Positive inotropism and a reduction in afterload were shown to be the mechanisms that led to cardiac improvement. Since that time the literature is replete with articles attesting to the benefits of vasodilator drugs in the treat ment of acute and chronic heart failure. A reduction in impedance or afterload should produce beneficial hemodynamic effects in patients with left ventricular volume overload due to aortic insufficiency or mitral insufficiency. This has been verified using an intravenous infusion of nitroprusside, 2,3 phentolamine4 and hydralazine.5,6 The effects of vasodilators on left ventricular wall stress can now be evaluated noninvasively. Recently Wilson and his group7 documented that nitroglycerin can effectively reduce the peak and end systolic wall stress in patients with aortic regurgitation. These authors concluded that the beneficial action of nitroglycerin on muscle mechanics might retard left ventricular enlargement and hypertrophy and consequently delay the onset of myocardial dysfunction. Prazosin is an oral drug with sustained vasodilator properties similar to nitroprusside which is widely used in the treatment of heart failure. This drug is a quinazoline derivative structurally unrelated to other vasodilator drugs pre sently available. It acts principally by blockade of vascular alpha-adrenergic receptors. It selectively blocks the postsynoptic or alpha 1 receptor while having little affinity for the pre-synoptic or alpha 2 receptor.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":24927003,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2005976969","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1177\/000331978303400205","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"This paper seeks to elucidate the debate over currency union in Africa. The paper examines whether natural currency blocs gradually emerge from an empirical investigation. Based on the historical data on inflation, trade, and the comovements of prices and outputs, I argue that the emergence of large-scale currency blocs in Africa will follow a gradual path and that this dynamic does not lead to the emergence of a single continental currency at this time. Rather, the pattern which emerges seems to suggest three blocs: one in West Africa, a second around South Africa, and a third in Central Africa. Although little evidence is found supporting the emergence of a single African currency at this time, the emergence of an African currency union is not necessarily precluded, since the ultimate decision to surrender a nation's monetary policy to a supranational institution is not made based solely on economic considerations. I then address the issue of a possible anchor for the union, were it to emerge and opt for an anchorage.

+{"text":"OptiCOMP Networks is developing a new method for manufacturing thin, lightweight, flexible, portable high efficiency III-V PV modules that can be folded and rolled for space and terrestrial applications. Multi-junction inverted (IMM3J) and non-inverted cells are lifted off the Ge or GaAs growth wafer and transferred to inexpensive flexible polyimide permanent carrier substrate. The lift-off happens in fraction of a second. OptiCOMP uses proprietary materials and bonding techniques. No expensive ion implantation or slow chemical etching of a sacrificial layer is needed. Several cells are integrated on a common blanket polymeric sheet and interconnected by soldering copper ribbons. Both sides of the epi-layer can be contacted from the top side of the wafer. This eliminates the need for copper cladded polymeric substrates and reduces weight. The cells were fully encapsulated using transparent spray-on polyimide layer which replaces the cover glass. The thickness and CTE of the blanket polyimide layer were chosen to stress-balance the structure so that it remains flat in spite of 300\u00b0C temperature variations in orbit. The entire solar cell structure is less than 250 \u03bcm thick and achieves a specific power ratio of 340 W\/kg. The base wafer is reused to grow another epi-layer and the cycle repeated. The cost of substrate materials is about 40% of the cost of the finished cell. OptiCOMP's process will result in savings in raw materials up to 30% of the cost of the cell and will enable terrestrial applications.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":24751538,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1985175463","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/PVSC.2012.6318187","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Abstract Background Maternal infections during pregnancy are common events that have been suggested to be risk factors for Attention\u2010deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in offspring. Only a few studies have been conducted to date and results are conflicting. The current study investigates the associations between specific groups of prenatal maternal infections and offspring ADHD, considering timing of exposure and the role of fever. Methods We used data from the prospective Norwegian Mother, Father and Child Cohort Study (MoBa), including more than 112,000 pregnancies, linked with data from the Medical Birth Registry of Norway and the Norwegian Patient Registry to estimate odds ratios for the likelihood that children develop ADHD after being exposed to maternal infections during gestation. Results Children exposed to any maternal infection during pregnancy showed increased risk of receiving an ADHD diagnosis (OR = 1.15, CI = 1.03\u20131.27). Specifically, increased ADHD risk was observed after exposure to genitourinary infections in second (OR = 1.42, CI = 1.06\u20131.90) or third trimester (OR = 2.04, CI = 1.19\u20133.49), and to respiratory infections in second trimester (OR = 1.31, CI = 1.12\u20131.54), provided these infections were accompanied by episodes of fever. Increased ADHD risk was also observed after exposure to diarrhea without fever in the third trimester (OR = 1.25, CI = 1.07\u20131.46). Conclusions Overall, our results suggest that prenatal exposure to maternal infections, particularly with co\u2010occurring episodes of fever, are risk factors for ADHD. Fever (or severity of the infection) appears to be more important in mid\u2010pregnancy associations. Our results indicate that type of infection and timing of exposure might influence the associations, but small effect sizes require careful interpretations. The association between infection and ADHD should be estimated using discordant siblings or other negative control designs that give better adjustment for unmeasured familial confounding.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":247401725,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1002\/jcv2.12070","PubMedCentral":"10242954","ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/jcv2.12070","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

This study was conducted to gain some insight into the impact of C. eupatorivora populations, by assessing their seasonal activity, habitat preferences, levels of leaf exploitation and extent of larval mortality in the field over a 1-year period. Leaf mining intensity was poorly synchronised with leaf availability, with leaf exploitation peaking at the end of the growing season of C. odorata. Although significantly more mines were recovered on plants growing in shaded situations, the percentage of available leaves that were exploited for mining was not significantly different between plants growing in shaded versus open situations. Overall, the levels of leaf damage were trivial with mines recovered from <5% of available leaves that were sampled during the study. Besides leaf-quality requirements, these low levels of leaf exploitation may have been influenced by high larval mortality which varied between 60 and 83%, depending on whether lower or higher estimates were used.

Objectives: Detection of\nparvovirus B19 DNA and its IgG antibodies in the serum of children with chronic\nhemolytic anemia and in apparently healthy children in Benha University Hospitals.\nMethodology: The study was conducted on 80 children. Forty of them with chronic\nhemolytic anemia, they were subdivided into 2 groups, Group (1a) included 20 patients\nwithout history of aplastic crisis, Group (Ib) included 20 patients with a history of\naplastic crisis and 40 age and sex-matched apparently healthy children representing\ncontrol (Group II). All patients were subjected to full history taking, clinical examination\nand laboratory investigations. Parvovirus B19 IgG was measured using anti-parvovirus\nB19 ELISA kits (SUNRED), and parvovirus B19 DNA was detected by using nestedpolymerase chain reaction. Results: The seroprevalence of parvovirus B19 IgG was\nsignificantly higher (P value =0.016) in Group Ia (50%) (10 out of 20) and Group Ib\n(45%) (9 out of 20) than the control group (Group II) (17.5%) (7 out of 40). There was a\nsignificant positive correlation between anti-parvovirus B19 IgG and age of all patients,\nfrequency of blood transfusion. The prevalence of parvovirus B19 DNA was 10% (2 out\nof 20) in group Ia and 30% (6 out of 20) in group Ib and no viral DNA was detected in\nthe controls (P value=0.001).

Here, we show that taut\u2212\/\u2212 mice have lost their ability to self-heal blood-stage infections with Plasmodium chabaudi malaria. All taut\u2212\/\u2212 mice succumb to infections during crisis, while about 90% of the control taut+\/+ mice survive. The latter retain unchanged taurine levels even at peak parasitemia. Deletion of taut, however, results in the lowering of circulating taurine levels from 540 to 264 \u03bcmol\/liter, and infections cause additional lowering to 192 \u03bcmol\/liter. Peak parasitemia levels in taut\u2212\/\u2212 mice are approximately 60% higher than those in taut+\/+ mice, an elevation that is associated with increased systemic tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-\u03b1) and interleukin-1\u03b2 (IL-1\u03b2) levels, as well as with liver injuries. The latter manifest as increased systemic ammonia levels, a perturbed capacity to entrap injected particles, and increased expression of genes encoding TNF-\u03b1, IL-1\u03b2, IL-6, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), NF-\u03baB, and vitamin D receptor (VDR). Autopsy reveals multiorgan failure as the cause of death for malaria-infected taut\u2212\/\u2212 mice. Our data indicate that taut-controlled taurine homeostasis is essential for resistance to P. chabaudi malaria. Taurine deficiency due to taut deletion, however, impairs the eryptosis of P. chabaudi-parasitized erythrocytes and expedites increases in systemic TNF-\u03b1, IL-1\u03b2, and ammonia levels, presumably contributing to multiorgan failure in P. chabaudi-infected taut\u2212\/\u2212 mice.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":5594482,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2150488581","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1128\/IAI.01159-09","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Click-through rate (CTR) prediction of advertisements on online social network platforms to optimize advertising is of much interest. Prior works build machine learning models that take a user-centric approach in terms of training -- using predominantly user data to classify whether a user will click on an advertisement or not. While this approach has proven effective, it is inaccessible to most entities and relies heavily on user data. To accommodate for this, we first consider a large set of advertisement data on Facebook and use natural language processing (NLP) to extract key concepts that we call conceptual nodes. To predict the value of CTR for a combination of conceptual nodes, we use the advertisement data to train four machine learning (ML) models. We then cast the problem of finding the optimal combination of conceptual nodes as an optimization problem. Given a certain budget $k$, we are interested in finding the optimal combination of conceptual nodes that maximize the CTR. A discussion of the hardness and possible NP-hardness of the optimization problem is provided. Then, we propose a greedy algorithm and a genetic algorithm to find near-optimal combinations of conceptual nodes in polynomial time, with the genetic algorithm nearly matching the optimal solution. We observe that Decision Tree Regressor and Random Forest Regressor exhibit the highest Pearson correlation coefficients w.r.t. click predictions and real click values.

In this article, I test hypotheses derived from world society theory about the relationship between country-level integration and individual gender attitudes using a broad sample of rich and developing nations. Using World Values Survey data from 64 countries, multilevel models of gender attitudes reveal that increased country-level ties to general and women's INGOs are associated with more egalitarian individual gender attitudes.

XLH's early detection of sharing opportunities saves more memory by deduplicating otherwise missed short-lived pages and by increasing the time long-lived duplicates remain shared. \n \nCompared to I\/O-agnostic scanners such as KSM, our benchmarks show that XLH can merge equal pages that stem from the virtual disk image earlier by minutes and is capable of saving up to four times as much memory; e.g., XLH saves 290 MiB vs. 75 MiB of main memory for two VMs with 512 MiB assigned memory each.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":10360058,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2118670307","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

This is due to low fertility rate (TFR of 1.2 in 2011); and increasing life expectancy (18.3 years for men and 21.8 years for women at age 65 in 2011). Its support ratio (working age persons\/elderly) is projected to decline from 7.9 in 2011 to 2.2 by 2030, representing a steep decline. It primarily relies on a mandatory savings tier to finance old age. This tier is administered by a statutory Board called Central Provident Fund (CPF) under the Ministry of Manpower. The CPF has over the years been used not just for retirement, but for housing health care, and other purposes. Its wide scope and mandate has resulted in considerable complexity. \nThis paper provides an assessment of the extent to which the current old age financing arrangements are likely to address longevity, inflation, and survivors' risks faced by individuals in their old age. Not only each person will need support for a longer period in old age, but societal and individual expectations about old age support are also changing, reflecting the affluent society. \nThis paper argues that the current old age financing arrangements require substantive, not ad-hoc marginal reforms, including introduction of non-contributory budget financed social pensions.

Email: email@example.com Journal of Cellular Medicine and Natural Health W. Sumera JOURNAL OF CELLULAR MEDICINE AND NATURAL HEALTH | 2020 2. Introduction Optimum immunity involves the coordinated function of cells, tissues, and organs, as well as proteins and numerous biological factors to protect the body against microbial invasions and effectively search and destroy abnormal cells and foreign agents. Every stage of the immune response depends on the presence of various micronutrients, which interact in synergistic ways based on their complementary mode of action. In this regard, vitamins, minerals, and many other natural components, including plant secondary metabolites, have been researched for their immune-enhancing or anti-microbial efficacy. The vast majority of these studies were conducted on individual agents and focused on their mechanisms of action. Since many of these compounds are available as nutritional supplements and are consumed not only as single nutrients but also combined with other natural products, it is important to know their overall effects when taken together. In general, the effectiveness of combined nutrients in supplement form is still not routinely subjected to efficacy testing and thus remains largely unknown. Our scientific work has pioneered a new approach in the pleiotropic control of biological mechanisms involved in various pathologies such as cardiovascular disease, cancer as well as viral and bacterial infections, by channeling the complexity of micronutrient interactions towards defined specific metabolic targets.1 The superior efficacy of such micronutrient combinations\u2014called micronutrient synergies\u2014has been documented in our numerous in vivo, in vitro, and clinical studies.1 In this study we tested the efficacy of selected vitamins, minerals, and plant extracts, both individually and in combination, on several aspects relevant to healthy cellular immune response. These vitamins and minerals included: Vitamin C is essential for general health including immune cell activity.2 The body does not produce vitamin C on its own and the requirements for this vitamin are affected by various health conditions and age. Vitamin C is essential to produce and repair collagen in epithelial tissues, which form the body's natural anti-infection barriers. Among many other functions, this antioxidant vitamin supports healthy cell growth, healthy circulation, and detoxifies the cells of the entire body.3 Vitamin C is also the most important blood antioxidant and high levels of vitamin C in neutrophils are necessary to counteract elevated oxidative stress.4 Although mean plasma vitamin C concentration typically oscillates around 50 \u03bcmol\/L, neutrophils accumulate millimolar vitamin C concentrations against a concentration gradient, which indicates an important role for this vitamin during immune stimulation.5 Thus, the neutrophils' low vitamin C status during infectious episodes could potentially compromise their function.6 Meta-analyses have indicated that vitamin C intakes of at least 200 mg\/day can decrease the risk of acquiring respiratory infections;7,8 however, due to increased demands for the vitamin during ongoing infection, intakes of gram doses of vitamin C are required.9,10 Vitamin E decreases the production of prostaglandin E2 (which has immunosuppressive activity), and vitamin C modulates cytokine production and decreases histamine levels.4,2 Zinc has been shown to be important for the structural and functional integrity of skin and mucosal cells.11 Zinc together with vitamin C and iron may also play a role in the production of interferons (IFNs) involved in preventing viral replication.11,2 Zinc is also essential for the development, differentiation, and activation of T lymphocytes,4,12 while iron, copper, and selenium are important for their differentiation and proliferation.13,14 Also, it has been shown that zinc enhances the phagocytic activity of peritoneal macrophages for Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus.15 Selenium is essential for the function of selenoproteins, which act as redox regulators and cellular antioxidants and are thus important for the function of leukocytes and NK cells.14 It has been shown that selenium Journal of Cellular Medicine and Natural Health W. Sumera JOURNAL OF CELLULAR MEDICINE AND NATURAL HEALTH | 2020 3. supplementation of adults (50 or 100 \u03bcg per day for 15 weeks) increases the production of IFN-\u03b3, while vitamin A downregulates it.16 Some micronutrients have been also investigated for their combined effects, including: Vitamins C and E, lipoic acid, and zinc and selenium are important cellular antioxidants and components of antioxidant enzymes and crucial for the effective protection of cells against oxidative damage. Vitamins C and B12 facilitate the production of T cells, particularly cytotoxic T cells.17,14 Vitamins B6 and B12, folate and ginger affect the composition of intestinal microbiota (i.e. the balance between commensal and pathogenic microorganisms) important for optimum immunity.18,19 Vitamins B6, B12, C and E, folate, and zinc maintain or enhance NK cells' cytotoxic activity.13,4,20 These cells are activated if pathogens bypass the antimicrobial defenses, and they target and attack any host cells that display an abnormal or unusual protein pattern on the plasma membrane, killing these cells using cytotoxins. Numerous plants display antimicrobial and antioxidant properties as a result of containing various phytochemicals such as flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, and terpenoids synthesized in the secondary metabolism of the plant.21,22 These properties have been widely researched and applied in traditional medicine. Several phytotherapy manuals refer to various medicinal plants used in treating infectious diseases such as urinary tract infections, gastrointestinal disorders, respiratory disease, and skin infections. In this study we evaluated the efficacy of several plant extracts both tested individually and combined with other micronutrients for their antimicrobial and immune-enhancing activities. The test compounds included: Fucoidan which is a sulfated polysaccharide from brown algae with a variety of immune-modulatory effects, including activation of various immune system cells and enhancement of antiviral and antitumor responses. It has been reported that fucoidan is involved in immune activities, such as those of macrophages, NK cells, and cytokines.23,24 Lychee fruit extract is rich in a variety of antioxidants, including flavonoids and anthocyanins, such as gallic acid, chrysanthemin, antirrhinin, and oenin that may benefit the immune system. It is also rich in ascorbic acid, an essential vitamin for immune and other body functions. It has been investigated for its ability to reduce tumor cell viability in in vitro and in vivo models.25 Aronia berries (chokeberries) native to North America have a total antioxidant potential more than three times that of blueberries and outscore blueberries for anthocyanins more than four times over. Tart cherries are a rich source of polyphenols and vitamin C. Their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties have been demonstrated in various animal and cell culture studies as well as in human studies.26 White mulberry fruits contain a plethora of phytonutrients that may exert immune-modulatory properties and they also support sugar and fat metabolism, which are important for overall well-being. Ginger root has been used worldwide for thousands of years in folk medicine to various ends, including to promote healthy circulation and normal production of inflammatory markers, as well as to aid a healthy immune respiratory response. In addition, it has demonstrated effectiveness against human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV)-induced plaque formation on airway epithelium by blocking viral attachment and internalization. It was also reported that it could stimulate mucosal cells to secrete IFN-\u03b2 that may contribute to counteracting viral infection.27 Its bioactive compounds may enhance immune system function through antioxidant and other properties.

Methods: The goal of this study is to evaluate apartment buildings of the communist period in Tirana and Shkodra and apply a number of passive and active retrofit strategies, which are appropriate in the Mediterranean climate conditions. Results and Discussion: Improvement of thermal conductivity and energy balance can be achieved through the additional insulation of the buildings' walls and roofs and window replacement, installation of photovoltaic panels and energy-efficient lighting. The application of passive strategies reduces energy losses in Tirana by 56% and in Shkodra\u2014 by 57%.

+{"text":"The potential geophysical methods (gravity and magnetic) classically have good responses for the study of tectonic framework of sedimentary basins. In this work, we applied advanced processing techniques for gravity and magnetic data (reduce to pole, matched filter, horizontal gradient and tilt derivative) in order to characterize the geophysical expression of the main structures of the Potiguar Rift and its crystalline basement (NE Brazil). In an attempt to establish the behavior of major crustal blocks of the Borborema Province under the sedimentary package of the Potiguar Basin, eight tectonicgeophysical domains were identified by correlating anomalous patterns of causative sources with geological data available in the literature. Extensive fault systems, which limit the Potiguar Rift, are presented as large positive gravity lineaments. The main shear zones are correlated to expressive elongated anomalies in NE-SW direction and control the boundaries of the crustal blocks of the Borborema Province. The integration of various geophysical maps with the surface geology also allowed to correlate the geophysical expression of these structures and to establish its influence in the rifting processes by which passed the basin, including the NE-SW structural features observed in the regions adjacent to the basin. It was possible to define the presence of these features below the thick sedimentary package, strongly controlling internal architecture of the Potiguar Rift. These results support the hypotheses about the influence of Precambrian structures in the formation of the basin during the rifting in the continental margin of Brazil. Importantly, the inference of NW-SE trending deformation, mostly revealed by magnetic data, contributes to the hypothesis that there has been the spread of E-W tectonic forces that formed the equatorial margin into the continent. Such efforts also influenced the truncation of basement structures, NNW-SSE deformation of the Rio Ceara-Mirim dykes and caused EW lateral drag, which occurs between the Portalegre Shear Zone and the Carnaubais Fault System","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":131323628,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2335852269","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.11606\/ISSN.2316-9095.V16I1P43-60","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Biofumigation involves growing specialised cover crops that have the ability to suppress certain soil-borne diseases. Species such as those in the Brassicaceae family, (e.g., radish, mustard and rocket) are known to have this capability. Biofumigation activity is initiated by the degradation of glucosinolates within the tissues of the plant when the crop is incorporated into the soil at approx. 25% flowering rate. In this experiment, nine bio-fumigant varieties were assessed over six planting dates for biomass yield, irrigation management, glucosinolate concentration and efficacy against three soilborne pathogens, namely; Sclerotium rolfsii, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and Macrophomina phaseolina. Preliminary results showed incorporation dates varied across varieties and planting times. Winter planting had highest biomass yield across all varieties, compared with the summer plantings (e.g., 14.82 t\/ha in winter, versus 5.02 t\/ha in summer for Caliente). The efficacy of disease suppression was variable between variety and planting date. For example, Nemfix and BQ Mulch produced a higher percentage mortality rate (100% and 98%) against S. sclerotiorum, compared with autumn (22% and 12%) and winter (37% and 13%) planting. High glucosinolate production was observed during the summer plantings, where irrigation treatments including drought conditions (Low; 0.75 ML\/ha), moderate watering (Medium; 2 ML\/ha) and field capacity (High; 2.5 ML\/ha) were applied. Increased glucosinolate concentrations were observed in the Low irrigation treatments (e.g., Mustclean; 32.31 \u03bcmol\/g DW), versus High irrigation (e.g., Mustclean; 17.11 \u03bcmol\/g DW). Summer data pending analysis. These findings can help growers to identify biofumigant varieties that compliment rotation program and optimise disease management practices.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":214226887,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2999327584","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3390\/proceedings2019036077","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2504-3900\/36\/1\/77\/pdf?version=1579570177","status":"HYBRID"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

All dart leaders presented exhibit part or whole irregular (or termed \"erratic\") impulsive electric field change (E-change) characteristic, which occur in coincidence with VHF radiation burst. A transition point exists in the dart-stepped leader process, and divides the dart-stepped leader into dart phase and stepped phase. The behavior of these two phases resemble dart and stepped leader respectively except for the higher speed and more regular E-change pulse wave shapes in stepped phase than typical stepped leaders.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":44043480,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2329164438","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/ICLP.2014.6973269","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"New Orthogonal Space-Time Block Codes with Full Diversity. (December 2002) Lori Anne Dalton, B.S., Texas A&M University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Costas N. Georghiades It has been shown from the Hurwitz-Radon theorem that square complex orthogonal space-time code designs cannot achieve full diversity and full rate simultaneously, except in the two transmit antenna case. However, this result does not consider nonlinear codes, or codes that only exist for specific symbol constellation sets. In this work, we present complex full rate codes for four transmit antennas. Using carefully tailored constellation phase rotations, we show these codes can achieve full diversity for specialized PSK and PAM symbol constellations. In addition, one code presented with PAM based symbols is a linear complex orthogonal design. Thus, we demonstrate by example that full rate, full diversity, square complex orthogonal codes for four transmit antennas exist when symbol constellations are restricted to a subset of the complex plane. This new code does not violate the Hurwitz-Radon theorem, which only considers codes that work for all possible symbol constellations.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":113021493,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2289669645","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Development of a hybrid element for different geometries of plates and shells is briefly discussed. In addition, studies dealing with particular dynamic problems such as dynamic stability and flutter of plates and shells coupled to flowing fluids are also discussed. This paper is structured as follows: after a short introduction on some of the fundamentals of the developed model applied to vibrations analysis of shells and plates in vacuo and in fluid, the dynamic analysis of anisotropic structural elements is discussed. Studies on dynamic response of plates in contact with dense fluid (submerged and\/or subjected to liquid) follow. These studies present very interesting results that are suitable for various applications. Dynamic response of shell type structures subjected to random vibration due to a turbulent boundary layer of flowing fluid is reviewed.

Previously, regression-based noise filtering methods have only been used in offline rendering due to their high computational cost. In this article we propose a novel regression-based reconstruction pipeline, called Blockwise Multi-Order Feature Regression (BMFR), tailored for path-traced 1 spp inputs that runs in real time. The high speed is achieved with a fast implementation of augmented QR factorization and by using stochastic regularization to address rank-deficient feature data.

+{"text":"The New York City AIDS and tuberculosis surveillance units have shown that they can share databases effectively without compromising confidentiality, although incompatible formats and case definitions are significant hurdles. In the past, the AIDS branch used other disease-specific registries to help identify new cases of AIDS, including those for cryptosporidiosis, tuberculosis, and cervical cancer. A complicating factor is the State's confidentiality laws, which prohibit sharing names of people with AIDS with any other registry. Other self-reporting registries, including tuberculosis, accept a patient's self-reported HIV status without confirmation. The two branches have yielded tips for other health departments to use, including understanding the information that will be gathered, implementing validation studies, and using accurate identifier codes. The cost of matching information may be too high for some departments and should be thoroughly investigated prior to implementation.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":12563389,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"On July 9, 2011, the Republic of South Sudan (RSS) attained independence from Sudan. The new country is oil rich and also endowed with wildlife. Similar to most African countries, however, sustainably managing wildlife in the RSS is challenging. The government of Kenya has offered support for RSS in the form of technical advice in capacity building for government officials and protocols for ensuring government efficiency. Senior officials in RSS responsible for managing wildlife and tourism have been trained at the Kenya Wildlife Service Training Institute in Naivasha. This training emphasizes building capacity as custodians of RSS's wildlife resources. Upon completion of the training, some officers were attached to Kenyan National Parks and other tourism destinations for benchmarking. In May 2012, prior to the start of this training program, a self-administered questionnaire was administered to 40 tourism officers from the RSS (response rate =100%) regarding their support or opposition toward traditional consumptive uses of wildlife. Questionnaire items included using wildlife for: (a) meat for human consumption, (b) ornaments, (c) traditional medicine, (d) ceremonial wear, and (e) offerings in traditional religious activities. Possible responses were \"support,\" \"oppose,\" and \"not sure.\" Respondents were also encouraged to include brief explanatory notes to accompany these responses. Respondents strongly supported traditional consumptive uses ranging from using wildlife as a source of meat for human consumption (98%) to using wildlife as a source for traditional medicine (80%) (Table 1). In between the two extremes included support for using wildlife as a source for ornaments (90%), sacrifice in traditional religious ceremonies (88%), and source for ceremonial wear (85%). In all cases, the proportion of respondents \"not sure\" about a given wildlife use was higher than that for those opposed to the use and only 5% or less opposed these uses of wildlife. Examples of common explanations for their responses were: (a) \"it is good for locals and tourists to enjoy wildlife meat,\" (b) \"wildlife should provide ceremonial wear as in the olden days,\" (c) \"local people should not suffer if wild animals can provide medicine for them,\" (d) \"ornaments from wildlife are nice and local people and tourists should benefit from them,\" and (e) \"communities should appreciate traditional ceremonies.\" Taken together, these results show that there was strong support for consumptive wildlife use involving extraction of material products from wildlife for people of the RSS","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":144615299,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2073124773","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1080\/10871209.2014.929196","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Daily operation and management of complex systems typically include multiple working sessions during which a team presents a set of information and discusses issues relevant to their decision making. A complex set of operational technology (OT) networks installed onboard a Navy ship is an example of such a system. A crew's ability to effectively communicate OT networks status to the ship commander, visualize, and discuss the options available in a given situation, has a significant impact on mission success. While the complexity of contemporary OT networks has dramatically increased, visualization tools have witnessed little improvement over several decades\u2014they include sets of two-dimensional blueprints that are inherently hard to understand and conceptualize as three-dimensional (3D) information. To address this problem, we designed and implemented an augmented reality (AR) system that allowed a small team to visualize a 3D model of the ship with details of its computer networks. We recruited 30 individuals familiar with network management tasks central to our study and examined the usability of the tool on a set of real-world scenarios focused on network management. Analysis of objective and subjective data suggested that there was a general agreement among the participants that AR portrayal of the network was very supportive of their understanding of the physical-to-logical relationship within the network and that it fostered constructive collaboration among the team members. The reported levels of discomfort associated with oculomotor symptoms made the highest contribution to the total Simulator Sickness Questionnaire score; we believe that those symptoms should be given more attention in future studies with AR setups. The results provided in this empirical study offer early insights into the benefits and challenges of AR approaches applied to the decision making of small teams in high stakes scenarios and real-world situations.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":218597956,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3026007640","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/VR46266.2020.1581318473043","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Background: Cytogenic methods acts with complex type mutations, known as structural mutations (aberrations)and a special type of chromosomal damage, known as micronucleus. So, micronucleus (MN) assay has been used as a biomarker of genetic damage in buccal mucosa cells. Aim and Objectives: To evaluate micronucleus in the exfoliated cells of buccal mucosa of individuals with potentially malignant disorders and different tobacco related habits and in control group. To observe the incidence of micronucleus count based on duration, frequency and type of tobacco usage and also auto immune condition of Lichen planus. Materials and Method: The study population is divided into 3 groups. Group I : 15 healthy subjects (control), Group II : 15 smokers or chewers with habits andno evidence of lesion Group III : 30 Patients clinically diagnosed as having PMD of the oral cavity. Smears stained with DNA specific Feulgen stain. Association of micronucleus between all groups and its mean and standard deviation was assessed with ANOVA with p<0.05 was considered as significant level. Results: The mean MN revealed that individuals with potentially malignant disorders had 26.8\u00b15.1, individuals with tobacco habit (smokers\/chewers) had 11.0\u00b15.5 and controls had 0.2\u00b10.5. The ANOVA test for association and mean frequency of micronucleus between all groups revealed significant value of <0.001.

+{"text":"Povl Erik Rostg\u00e5rd Andersen Tina Blegind Jensen Carsten B\u00f8jer Dahlgaard Abstract In recent years, important investments have been made in implementing IT systems within the Danish healthcare sector. The objective with these systems is to improve the quality of the healthcare and to increase the patient quality. For various reasons, such as defending an IT implementation's worth or showing indicators on improved performance, managers within the healthcare sector have an interest in evaluating how well the implementation turned out to be. Such an evaluation should include information about the value with regard to both the implementation process and the effects. In relation to this, the paper in question presents the theory based evaluation as a frame for evaluating the implementation of an Electronic Patient Record (EPR) at a Danish hospital. The evaluation is exemplified on the basis of the Digital Hospital Project, which took place at a hospital in North Jutland, Denmark, from 2001-2003. The purpose of this paper is twofold: First of all, the aim is to outline how to conduct an evaluation of an EPR implementation within the frame of theory based evaluation. Secondly, emphasis will be put on the implementation process in relation to the effects. In other words, it is important to take into consideration both the effects and the process when evaluating an EPR implementation. In this way, the paper provides a frame for evaluators and other practicians on how to tailor and conduct evaluations to determine the worth of an implementation program.

+{"text":"The residual stresses generated due to welding in pressure components may have several harmful effects such as decrease in the resistance to cycling load and corrosive environments. The analysis of the welding process has been developed extensively in 2D and 3D. The element movement technique has been shown to be very effective in simulating the filler material deposition leading to a reduction in the analysis time. However, when attempted for wider fields of applications, it had some limitations, especially when moving the elements towards the base-plate. In this paper, the element interaction technique is introduced utilizing the concepts of both the element movement and element birth techniques. The new technique is verified versus the currently developed procedures. In this technique, the elements of the weld pool are held in place in contact with the elements of the base-plate and the interaction is made to be a function of time. This gave several flexibilities in modeling the welding process. Hence, the technique is then used to analyze simple fillet welding of a plate and circumferential butt-welding of a pipe.Copyright \u00a9 2005 by ASME","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":113468616,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2076921215","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1115\/PVP2005-71322","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

At the final stage, Kepler's first flash of enlightenment was sparked by his discovery of a general construction-rule for the (medial-grade) curve he required; the second, by his realization that this rule would produce a perfect ellipse, described in accordance with the (Keplerian-style) area law.

Mesh nodes in IEEE 802.11s can maintain link specific power mode, independent of power saving mode (PSM) for other peers. In environment having scarce resource of energy, every joule can be precious. This work focuses on analysis of PSM of IEEE 802.11s in view of energy, delay and throughput. Energy consumption due to link-based PSM has been mathematically modelled and compared with existing work. Impact of number of peer links, beacon period, delivery traffic indication map period, bandwidth, traffic, awake window, etc., over energy efficiency have been analysed in light sleep and deep sleep mode. It is observed that, due to more number of peer links in denser network, light sleep mode is less effective in term of energy efficiency. WMN have scalability issue. Further, network nodes near to gateway have lesser lifetime compared to other nodes, but due to PSM significant increase in lifetime has been observed. With increasing traffic, a node devotes more in awake state, so network throughput does not degrade due to light sleep mode. But at lower Beacon Interval slight degradation in throughput has been observed. During low traffic period, ideal listening dominates. Hence, suitable configuration of parameters like awake window, beacon period and delivery traffic indication map period can play vital role in energy saving.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":58073828,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2888126817","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.16943\/PTINSA\/2018\/49470","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

According to World Health Organization (WHO), Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) has been high HIV\/TB co-infection burden area for decades. However, MDR-TB were underreported in DRC due to the incompetent healthcare infrastructure and the lack of diagnostic method. \n \nMethod: This study aims to provide more epidemiological information on the prevalence of multidrug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) infection identified by GeneXpert MTB\/RIF assay, which is a new diagnostic method. The data were collected at the General Referral Hospital of Bukavu, DRC. Subject population was the suspected TB patients who visited the hospital of Bukavu, DRC. Retrospective analyses were done based on those data to identify risk factors. In addition, multiple statistical analyses, including multivariate logistic regression, Pearson Chi-square test were performed to investigate how the TB prevalence and treatment outcomes relate to risk factors and GeneXpert assay. \n \nResults: The Prevalence of all TB in the study population is 15.6% as identified by GeneXpert Assay. MDR-TB prevalence is 3.2% among the whole study population and 20% among TB positive subgroup. Logistic regression showed that previous TB episode and HIV known status are risk factors for developing MDR-TB. However, no risk factor for treatment failure was found in this study. \n \nConclusions: GeneXpert Assay provided reliable TB and MDR-TB prevalence data in the resource limited area Bukavu, DRC. We noticed that MDR-TB prevalence from our study is significantly higher than national level, which suggests severe underestimation of MDR-TB burden in DRC. However, loss to follow-up of treatment outcome and high proportion of HIV status unknown are significantly affecting the data validity of this study. \n \nPublic Health Significance: The control of MDR-TB in DR Congo requires diagnostic methods that are not only easy to implement in resource limited area, but also fast in turnaround time for both TB infection and drug resistance detection.

+{"text":"AbstractAim: The development of civilization is accompanied by new threats, which were previously unknown to mankind. One of the major and characteristic threats in the XX and XXI century, is the threat of contamination. This article describes the national system for detection of and warning about contamination hazards, and its operation within prevailing systems which exist in Poland. Introduction: In the recent past we experienced the effects of many natural disasters, which culminated in the contamination of the environment. Tragically, industrial accidents (Bhopal, Czarnobyl), led to thousands of casualties. Organisations, whose modus operandi involves the sowing of terror, focus on intimidation of whole communities utilising all available means, including weapons of mass destruction. This article identifies the national approach adopted to counter such threats, in particular the National System for Contamination Detection and Alarm (NSCDA). The NSCDA and its tasks are described in context of responsibilities laid down by law. It is essential for the effective operation of the system for participating services engaged in operations, who previously discharged their responsibilities in an uncoordinated way, to be functionally aligned and controlled by one body. The work of uniformed and non uniformed rescue services should be co-ordinated by a Dispatch Control Centre in order to optimise operational functionality and secure synergy. Additionally, the article describes approaches for improving the NSCDA through training and exercises, proposes essential development perspectivesConclusion: The NSCDA has functioned since 2006 and is a living system, which is adapted to changes, depending on the challenges, needs and tasks which emerge over time. Solutions presented in this paper should be constantly monitored and emerging environmental changes should influence appropriate changes to the system. Such adaptations should be propagated and incorporated in the training syllabus for personnel undergoing training in rescue techniques as well as crisis management. Equally, organisations which are also concerned with such problems, but currently not integrated within NSCDA e.g. Local Government Authorities, should implement such changes. It is appropriate to develop a monitoring system dedicated to the detection of contamination threats as well as engage the information system PROMIEN, at different levels, institutions and services involved with the problem of crisis response.

Increasing demands on device performance requires new technologies as well as new approaches to designs of circuits. III-V nanowire MOSFETs are a promising device technology well suited for implementation of switches. This work investigates the design trade-off's for III-V nanowire MOSFET technology for mm-wave switch circuits. In the thesis, simulation results for three different switch designs are compared. These are a standard single-pole double throw, with one respectively two resonant pairs, and a switch that uses high internal impedance to improve the isolation.

+{"text":"Contamination in recreational beach water is currently assessed using culture-based measurements of fecal indicator bacteria, a process that requires eighteen to twenty-four hours, from the time of sample collection until results can be released (Converse 2012). Due to the fluctuating nature of microbial contamination, data obtained twenty-four hours later are barely pertinent, and decisions regarding beach closure must be made on outdated information. To avoid this lag, real time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) has been suggested as an alternate testing method, since it directly measures the genetic material in a sample, and thus can reduce lag time to about three to four hours (Ferretti 2010). The major concern of using qPCR is that the value obtained is a measure of DNA in a sample, and, even though the value can be compared to the amount of DNA in one cell, there may be DNA in the sample that should not be counted towards the total, such as DNA from dead organisms (Haugland 2005). This paper focuses on samples collected during the summer of 2012 from Outlet Beach and Bath Filtration Plant in Kingston, Ontario. DNA was extracted from the samples and subjected to qPCR. The amount of DNA was then compared to a known amount of DNA in calibrator cells. This calculated calibrator cell equivalent value can then be compared to the colony forming unit value, as determined by membrane filtration. Through statistical analysis, a relationship can then be found between the two related values.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":202847107,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2970754638","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

By measuring the pressure drop between the inlet and outlet of microtube with different working fluid and the average temperature of microtube wall heated by steam, the corresponding friction factors and Nusselt number are obtained. The experimental results show the friction factors in microtubes exceeds the prediction of Hagen-Poiseulle due to the predominance of the electrical double layer effect (EDL effect) when the working fluid is distilled water, and the experimental Nusselt number is less than the classical laminar at Reynolds number<500 due to the effects of the variation of the thermophysical properties with temperature and the conjugate heat transfer. However, the effect of viscous dissipation results in temperature rise of the working fluid, due to which the friction factors are less than the prediction of Hagen-Poiseulle with the working fluid of tetrachloromethane. Using nitrogen gas as the working fluid, the rarefaction effect still brings on that the friction factor is less than the classical laminar solution, though gas density and viscosity increases resulted from the stagnant velocity between gas and inner wall and the viscous heating lead to the increase of friction factor.Copyright \u00a9 2008 by ASME","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":94477598,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1979343840","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1115\/ICNMM2008-62105","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The article shows the formalization result of the service technology of departing passengers into network model; the critical path is found, and the duration of service is determined. In order to find the critical path of the network graph it is recommended to apply the Dijkstra algorithm. It allows us to identify all critical paths from the initial vertex to the final one if there are several. Improving the service process is possible by reducing the performance duration on the critical path and upgrading the service technology. When servicing the departing passengers, there may be factors that lead to the flight departure delay due to the fault of the passenger transportation organization. While analyzing the service for departing passengers, additional work to eliminate the flight delay factors is considered. The service network model is shown in case of untimely removal of the baggage, belonged to the passenger who has not arrived for the flight; the service duration has been determined and critical path activities requiring special attention have been identified.

+{"text":"Cotton production might benefit from planned-variable distribution of irrigation as a function of soil water holding capacity (SWHC) and topography leading to better utilization of both rain and irrigation in water short regions of the Texas High Plains. Spans 5, 6, 7 and 8 of an 8-tower LEPA center pivot system were modified to deliver variable-rate (VR) irrigation within areas no larger than 400 m. Applicators were modified to provide relative flow rates of 2x, 3x, and 4x thus allowing stepwise increases in irrigation discharge of 20% of a base irrigation quantity. A control system opened solenoid valves relative to field location, thereby controlling irrigation quantities at specific sites. Field experiments were conducted in 2001 and 2002 to evaluate equipment and document potential advantages of VR irrigation of cotton over standard practices. Alternating strips of cotton, 20 to 22 rows wide, were irrigated by either VR or uniform-rate (UR) irrigation. In 2001, the VR irrigation strategy attempted to level lint yields by reducing irrigation in areas of high SWHC and increasing irrigation on areas of low SWHC following uniform pre-plant irrigations. Management zones were based on soil texture and slope in a 5-ha area. In 2002, irrigation quantities were increased in areas thought to be \"more productive\". Soil electrical conductivity (EC) was used to determine the management zones on a 6.2-ha test area for site-specific irrigation. Evaluations of the VR irrigation system following its construction in 2001 and modification in 2002 resulted in actual applicator flow rates within 5% of achievable flow rates. Errors in pivot positioning were documented. Based on preliminary comparisons with given management zone criteria, VR irrigation of cotton produced no significant increase in total lint yield or total irrigation water use efficiency (WUE) over uniform LEPA application in 2001 or increases in WUE in 2002. Using soil EC to establish management zones for VR irrigation resulted in lint yield increases of 2 to 4 % over uniform irrigation, but at the cost of additional water inputs.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":54178419,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The researches and predictions on seaports freight throughput in China have become increasingly important as the fast growth of Chinese economy and the development of \"the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21-Century Maritime Silk Road\". Extreme Learning Machine, a relatively new neural network algorithm published in the last a few years, is creatively utilized in this paper to mine historical data of seaports freight throughput in China. A new prediction model is built to predict seaports freight throughput in China. According to test results, the model shows good performances. The researches presented in this paper may be valuable for both real applications and theoretical studies. Introduction China has a long sea coast and many large seaports. The aggregated seaports freight throughput in China is more than 200 million TEUs (twenty foot equivalent units) per year [1]. Seaports freight throughput can be a key factor to measure economic growth and social developments. It is usually evaluated carefully when governments make their national strategies and specific policies. Besides, these seaports are connected with immense railway networks and highway networks, and are influencing integrated developments of the whole transportation industry. Also, the related study results may provide solid supports to the initiatives of \"the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21-Century Maritime Silk Road\". Therefore, a great deal of significance is attached to researches shown in this paper. The seaports freight throughput is decided by many different factors and the interactions among them. In this paper it is examined and studied from a point of view of data mining. Some advanced data mining algorithms published in the last several years [2] have been taken into consideration to ensure a better usage of the historical data of seaports freight throughput in China. The goal of this paper is to build a more effective and efficient prediction model by the data and to discuss the value of such models. Previous publications from the related fields in the academic world have been examined. The major data mining techniques have been used in these publications include polynomial regression, Support Vector Machine (SVM), BP neural network, RBF neural network, and grey model [3][4][5][6][7]. Among these algorithms, neural network algorithms and SVM perform better in the seaports freight throughput predictions [2] [8]. However, the SVM and the neural network methods used in the previous predictions may be inefficient or too complex, because complicated and multiple iterations are required to implement these algorithms. Moreover, prediction accuracy or prediction speed of all the previously used algorithms may not be satisfied enough to predict seaports freight throughput [2] [8]. The Extreme Learning Machine, a relatively new neural network algorithm, may provide a solution to the above problems. In short, it is worthwhile to apply ELM to seaports freight throughput. Thus, a prediction model based on ELM is developed in this paper. 3rd International Conference on Materials Engineering, Manufacturing Technology and Control (ICMEMTC 2016) \u00a9 2016. The authors Published by Atlantis Press 1816 Prediction Model The seaports freight throughput prediction is a supervised regression data mining task. It is suitable to apply ELM to this type of tasks [9]. This algorithm can be utilized widely to provide accurate and efficient predictions [9][10][11]12]. The fundamental principles of ELM are described below. ELM is a relatively simple algorithm with three steps. For a given training dataset: TrainData={(xi, ti)|xi\u2208Rn, ti\u2208Rm,i=1,......,N }, hidden node output function is G(a, b, x), and hidden nodes amount is L. The three steps are as following: Step 1 Assign values to hidden node parameters randomly: (ai, bi), i=1, ......, L. According to simulation results, the ELM model is good enough as long as L is larger than 800. Therefore, L is set as 1000 in this paper.

Substances with the properties of peptides have long been known to occur in urine (2). Madden et al.

Hence, from the standpoint of intelligent system design and performance metrics, through this example, we demonstrate the usefulness of leveraging the principles of knowledge engineering to develop domain specific knowledge. The models so developed can be used to evaluate the performance of such robotic systems and modified to improve the performance. For example, kinematic errors such as assembly errors are likely to be introduced in the construction; faults such as joint failures are likely to be introduced in the operation. Hence, automated on-line calibration of intelligent systems (such cable robots) becomes particularly important for continuous performance evaluation (positioning accuracy) and enhancement.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":5843045,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"293987238","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Various water harvesting practices were implemented to enhance soil moisture and recharge groundwater since 1991 in Tigray, Northern Ethiopia. This also resulted in land use land cover changes. Although remarkable results have been achieved in the implementation of the WHTs, there was limited quantitative evidence on the impact of LULCC and WHTs on the hydrology. The study was carried out at Abreha WeAtsbaha watershed with the aim of: (i) evaluating the LULCCs and (ii) quantifying the hydrological response following the implementation of different WHTs in the watershed for the last 23 years. The LULCC and their hydrological responses at the watershed for the years 1991, 2007 and 2014 were analyzed. LULCC for seven land use and land cover classes were evaluated using ERDAS 9.2 software with kappa coefficient of 0.80, 0.86 and 0.83 for the aforementioned periods respectively. The runoff response for the same period was estimated using SCS-CN method. In the last 23-years, dynamic LULCC was detected. Bare land area coverage has declined from 33% in 1991 to 8.6% in 2014. On the other hand, newly emerging land uses like bush lands and open forests with area coverage of 18.1% and 12 % respectively were observed. Moreover, a total of 14 WHTs practices were identified. An average runoff reduction of 57.2% was observed between 1991 and 2014. Generally, the WHTs have a profound effect on reducing runoff and improving groundwater level through their direct influence and indirectly by improving the vegetation cover of the watershed.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":163162073,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

First, the environment is scanned and reconstructed by ORB-SLAM2, and the acquired color image and point cloud data are further processed, and the object feature database, which includes color and depth information, is constructed. Secondly, the point cloud in the point cloud library and the matching point cloud are put into the same coordinate system, and the ICP algorithm is used to match the point cloud to the point cloud in the point cloud library as much as possible, and the matching error is obtained, and the region of interest is obtained according to the size of the matching error. Then, if the region of interest is not uniquely determined, the object recognition is further realized by using the inception-v3 model and the transfer learning to identify the region of interest. After obtaining the only definite region, the position of the object relative to the camera is obtained through the correspondence between the color information and the point cloud data, and the object location is achieved. In order to verify the rationality of the method, a matching validation experiment was designed and a database containing multiple objects was established. In the experimental stage, the point cloud information and color information of the object are collected again from another angle, and they are matched with the point cloud in the point cloud library to get the results and analyze them. The results show that the error of the point cloud that belongs to the same object is much less than that of the point cloud that does not belong to the same object.

A discussion is presented of prior research documenting working conditions of teachers and other street-level bureaucrats in other countries.

A mixed methods approach is used to explicate the emic teacher coping mechanisms that arise in the normalcy of everyday life. Insights are drawn from in-depth interviews (5), observation (65 days), survey (26) and 25 pages of detailed field notes, to explore the nature of coping mechanisms designed by teachers. The findings demonstrate that stress among teachers during NCS policy implementation emanate from scarcity of resources, goals and performance measures and relations with non-voluntary clients. In turn, teachers adopt coping mechanisms such as creaming, rubber stamping, referral, modifying the conception of work, private goal definition and withdrawal, which might affect the attainment of policy goals as teachers end up adapting the curriculum policy rather than implementing it as it is.

+{"text":"Control and management of invasive plants frequently differs from agricultural weed control as plant establishment and development progresses in less intensively managed systems. This is particularly the case for rhizome-forming invasive plants, such as Japanese knotweed (Fallopia\n japonica var. japonica) as minimum disturbance regimes permit the accumulation of significant below ground reserves that allow recovery from many physical, biological, chemical and integrated control methods. Here, we review the ongoing work of Jones, who established the world's\n largest and longest running invasive knotweed field trial. Using an integrated weed management (IWM) approach to testing, this research evaluated 19 different control treatments over three years to minimise pesticide use and increase the sustainability of controlling this ecologically and\n economically damaging species. Through consideration of plant biology, it was found that glyphosate-based herbicide treatments that exploited phenological changes in rhizome source-sink were significantly more effective than all other treatments. These results provide a roadmap to the more\n effective and efficient control of rhizome-forming invasive plants and emphasise the importance of scale appropriate empirical evidence to inform regulators when considering non-agricultural weed control. Within intensively managed arable agricultural systems, weed control is directed toward\n immature annual and perennial plants, during a 'critical period' extending for a relatively short time after crop emergence. This is because at this time, resource depletion by weed species may exert a major negative effect upon crop yield. Agronomic weed management may be achieved using a\n range of weed control methods, including: cultural\/preventative (e.g. soil cultivation, disrupting weed establishment), physical (mechanical methods or hand weeding), biological (biocontrol or bioherbicides), chemical (plant protection products; PPPs) and integrated weed management (IWM).\n True IWM systems combine cultural, physical, biological and\/or chemical methods; integrated herbicide management systems use a range of PPPs to mitigate selection of resistant weed populations. In contrast, control of invasive weed species, or invasive alien plants (IAPs) is commonly undertaken\n in less intensively managed systems, or unmanaged areas such as abandoned agricultural land, riparian areas and brownfield sites. Here, IAPs tend to be large and well-established so that plant persistence and development processes are often unhindered by weed control methods typically applied\n in agriculture. This is particularly true of rhizome-forming invasive species, such as Japanese knotweed (Fallopia japonica var. japonica) where minimal disturbance regimes permit the long-term development of significant carbohydrate reserves within perennating rhizome organs\n below the soil surface (>50 cm). Storage reserves permit recovery from repeated intentional disturbance and biological control; while physical size, depth, resilience and strong seasonal changes in source-sink strength of such organs preclude effective chemical control using many herbicides,\n as insufficient herbicide active ingredient is accumulated within storage tissues. There are strong environmental, ecological and economic cases for the management of IAPs to minimise their negative impacts. However, invasive plant management is hindered by the absence of scale appropriate\n empirical evidence to support control method selection and plant traits which are effective against control, e.g. rhizome bud bank. Consequently, control programmes may have less than optimal results in terms of economic and environmental sustainability. Terminology is critically important\n when defining clear programme objectives (i.e. control, management, eradication) and long-term assessment of IAP control and post-treatment habitat recovery is needed to establish best practice. In the case of Japanese knotweed, an approach that works with the seasonal resource translocation\n between above- and below-ground biomass and adequate herbicide coverage is the key to success. Physical disruption of the plant or increasing use of herbicide application will not give better control and may be less effective and costly. There is increasing public concern (real and perceived)\n about the widespread use of herbicides, and glyphosate in particular, resulting in increased PPP deregulation and reduced concentration and application rates. Experimental data that define best practice are essential to inform regulators when considering non-agricultural weed control. While\n the use of PPPs to control perennial IAPs is relatively small, the detrimental environmental, economic and amenity impacts are significant, such that the loss of effective PPPs should be of concern. In the absence of glyphosate, the only effective alternative for Japanese knotweed control\n would be complete physical excavation and disposal which would be significantly more expensive and arguably more environmentally harmful due to increased associated CO2 emissions and the risk of further spread.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":209579449,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2986533297","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1564\/v30_oct_02","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Background: In neuroblastoma (NB) cells, multiple defects can be seen in the death receptor pathway including decreased caspase 8 and TNF-related apoptosisinducing ligand (TRAIL) receptor expression. The caspase 8 deficiency correlates with N-myc amplification, which is a poor prognosis marker, but the mechanism of the correlation is unclear. BDNF\/TrkB activation also indicates poor prognosis, and the activation of this pathway increases the resistance of NB to chemotherapy. The purpose of this study was to determine the therapeutic value and approach of activating the TRAIL pathway in NB, and to examine the impact of N-myc and TrkB expression on NB response to TRAIL. Methods: A panel of 16 NB cell lines was studied for the expression of TRAIL pathway factors. Non-mycamplified NB cells were transfected with N-myc expression vector to study the effect of N-myc amplification on caspase 8 promoter activity and the TRAIL response. Similarly, TrkB effect was examined by TrkB transfection and BDNF treatment before TRAIL treatment. Results: Increased N-myc expression did not down regulate caspase 8 mRNA expression or regulate the caspase 8 promoter. In a subgroup of NB cell lines with an intact death receptor pathway, however, N-myc expression increased their sensitivity to TRAIL-induced apoptosis. There was a significant inverse correlation between N-myc amplification and expression of inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP). In 16 NB cell lines, 9\/13 N-myc amplified NB cell lines expressed a very low level of c-FLIP mRNA, whereas all non-N-myc amplified cell lines expressed higher levels of c-FLIP, indicating that restoration of the TRAIL pathway in N-myc amplified cells may be a particularly effective therapeutic approach. Interferon-\u03b3 (IFN-\u03b3) treatment induced caspase 8 expression in neuroblastoma regardless of its methylation status. In the primary cultures of neuroblastoma cells, IFN-\u03b3 can reduced the tumor cells. In NB cells, IFN-\u03b3 induced TRAIL expression and caused cell death in NB cells expressing TR2 even when BDNF\/TrkB pathway was active. Conclusions: IFN-\u03b3 may be an important therapeutic cytokine in the treatment of children with neuroblastoma because of its ability to compensate the defects in the TRAIL pathway, synergize with differentiation agents, and overcome BDNF\/TrkB induced chemoresistance.

+{"text":"Both a short cervix (as measured by ultrasound) and infection (most often subclinical chorioamnionitis) have been implicated in preterm labor. Treating vaginal infection reportedly can help prevent preterm births. This study evaluated both cervical length and cervicovaginal microbiology to test the hypothesis that cervical shortening and cervical pathogens, especially bacterial vaginosis, act synergistically to bring about premature labor. The prospective follow-up study enrolled 316 women. Transvaginal ultrasonography and cervical bacteriological studies were done at about 18 and 28 weeks' gestation; 243 subjects were scanned at both visits. In the ultrasound studies, the effects of transfundal pressure, applied by hand, on the length and shape of the cervix were examined. In women who spontaneously delivered before 37 weeks' completed gestation, the cervix was significantly shorter than it was in those delivering at term. The difference was more marked at the later measurement. The positive predictive value of a cervical length of 30 mm, measured at 28 weeks, for preterm birth was 64%. Cervical volume, in contrast, did not differ significantly in relation to the time of delivery. Although half of the 12 women who exhibited cervical funneling under transfundal pressure delivered before term, each one who delivered prematurely also had a short cervix at 28 weeks' gestation. In women whose cervix measured <25 mm, the presence of potentially pathogenic bacteria was associated with premature labor in three of seven instances (43%). The risk did not differ significantly from that in women lacking such pathogens (31%). The presence of Ureaplasma urealyticum at the endocervix could not be related to preterm delivery. This study failed to demonstrate that a short cervix has a significantly greater influence on preterm birth if the cervix is colonized by pathogens or bacterial vaginosis is present. Possibly a larger study in a population with a higher prevalence of bacterial vaginosis would yield different results.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":75615854,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2332666274","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1097\/00006254-200202000-00002","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"A business model was created in order to explore the commercial application of a bi-layer boneligament scaffold to the treatment of torn anterior cruciate ligaments (ACL) requiring replacement. The two main keys in producing the bone scaffold are triple co-precipitation of type-I collagen, chodroitin-6-sulphate, and calcium phosphate minerals and the use of lyophilization to create a network where all the materials are homogeneously dispersed and present in significant amounts. This process allows the creation of a porous network whose physical characteristics, mechanical properties, and material content can all be changed to create a scaffold that closely mimics natural bone. A collagen and chondroitin-6-sulphate scaffold is used for ligament regeneration. The ACL replacement market was chosen because it is one of the most commonly surgically repaired ligaments in the body and because all of the current treatments have drawbacks. The exercise of creating a business model made it clear that the commercial potential of starting a company that focused on marketing a direct ACL replacement scaffold would most likely not be successful mainly because surgeons would hesitate to use this product over current methods that are satisfactory and it would be difficult to separate our product from other newer methods which all boast similar advantages over current treatment options. However, the commercial potential of using the technology to create a scaffold for graft site morbidity in certain ACL replacement surgeries is large because there is no competition, and the implantation procedure for the surgeon would be simple.

Finally, pressure drop and flow distribution results obtained from the simulations are correlated with the previously identified dimensionless variables to derive correlation equations. These equations have been verified over a range of different isothermal and non-isothermal flow cases and applied to identify the criteria for the occurrence of reverse flow resulting from a combination of pass inlet flow rate and winding geometry.

The associated Abelian varieties come either from certain cohomology groups of the underlying universe or, in more recent theories (e.g. [Witten] [Mo-Wi]), are linked to their K-groups. Expressed in mathematical terms, one canonically associates to the cohomology or the K-theory of an even dimensional compact spin manifold a principally polarized Abelian variety. Moreover, if the dimension is 2 mod 8 a particular line bundle is singled out whose first Chern class is the principal polarization. This bundle thus has a non-zero section represented by a theta function which, after suitable normalization, is indeed the partition function of the underlying theory. Let me give some further detail on the physical motivation. There are several types of superstring theories, e.g. type I which is self-dual and types IIA and IIB wich are related via T -duality.

One key limitation of previous works is that the expression-related information like facial or eye images is considered as the only evidence of emotion. However, emotional status is not isolated; it is tightly associated with people's visual perceptions, especially those with emotional implications. However, little work has examined such associations to better illustrate the causes of emotions. In this paper, we study the emotionship analysis problem in eyewear systems, an ambitious task that requires classifying the user's emotions and semantically understanding their potential causes. To this end, we describe EMOShip, a deep-learning-based eyewear system that can automatically detect the wearer's emotional status and simultaneously analyze its associations with semantic-level visual perception. Experimental studies with 20 participants demonstrate that, thanks to its awareness of emotionship, EMOShip achieves superior emotion recognition accuracy compared to existing methods (80.2% vs. 69.4%) and provides a valuable understanding of the causes of emotions. Further pilot studies with 20 additional participants further motivate the potential use of EMOShip to empower emotion-aware applications, such as emotionship self-reflection and emotionship life-logging.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":246275947,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1145\/3517250","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":"2201.09933"},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/arxiv.org\/pdf\/2201.09933","status":"GREEN"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"In this annotated portfolio, we present a posthumanist idea of defining mingling spaces with microorganisms. Using this approach, we explored and extended the current boundary of cultural concerns of human beings. Human landmarks, such as buildings, streets, and cities, are usually named after famous people, important events, religious symbols, or a piece of collective memories. From Alexandra (named after the Macedonian King) to Hong Kong (meaning \"fragrant harbour\"), names of places are lyrical codenames that connect human emotions to a physical space. However, while these names last, the stories they tell often get forgotten. In this work, we propose a new, posthuman narrative for naming places. Microorganisms, the invisible lifeforms that pervade every micrometer of air, water bodies, and land on earth, coevolve and interact with the changing environment of the place they inhabit, accumulating genetic traits along the way. Just like gut microbiota that are unique for each individual human, the composition and genetic variations of the microbes in each location are also unique to that place, shaped by millennia of adaptation. Microorganisms narrate another kind of story, told through their genomes, where \"collective memories\" are a natural history in which anthropological activities play only a small part. Bacteria, the witness of human kings and heroes, wars and revolutions, ascent and extinction, are the rightful \"namesake\" of places. Using four landmarks in Hong Kong, a city tossed in endless political and cultural tides in the past 150 years, as our point of departure, we contemplated on the use of bacteria as a new narrative for the posthuman stories associated with places. Alongside the philosophical articulations, we also visualized this idea by fabricating an installation through the interdisciplinary use of 3D printing technology and microbiological procedures.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":254737644,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/VISAP57411.2022.00015","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In order to solve this problem, a robust adaptive beamforming method based on covariance matrix reconstruction and steering Vector estimation is proposed for the airborne distributed radar. In the proposed method, an annulus uncertainty set is used to constrain the interference steering vector, and then the Capon spectrum is integrated on the surface of the region to obtain interference-plus-noise covariance matrix. Afterwards, the iterative robust Capon beamformer is used to obtain a more accurate estimation of the desired signal steering vector. Finally the weight vector is calculated by using the estimated interference-plus-noise covariance matrix and the desired signal steering vector. As the interference-plus-noise covariance matrix is well reconstructed by the annulus uncertainty set and the signal steering vector is calibrated, the proposed method is both robust to array structure errors and signal angle errors compared with the existing methods. The robustness and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm are verified by simulations.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":221280447,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3081145333","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/ICSIDP47821.2019.9173243","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

When, on the contrary, as is the case with peptic ulcer, knowledge of causation is rudimentary, it is all the more essential that treatment should be firmly based on the results of scientific trial. Yet the current medical treatment of peptic ulcer is more dependent on tradition, clinical impression, and armchair speculation than any other branch of therapeutics. The reason is not difficult to understand. It lies essentially in the natural history of the disease, which is one of a continual succession of relapses and remissions, spread over a lifetime and punctuated on only rare occasions, if at all, by the complications of haemorrhage, perforation, or obstruction. Hence any form of treatment may readily be shown to be followed by improvement in a large proportion of cases.

+{"text":"The agricultural sector in Canada is responsible for approximately 9% of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Canada, accounting for 54 MT of carbon dioxide (CO2), as well as 31% of methane (CH4) and 75% of national nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions in 2021 (Environment and Climate Change Canada 2021). However, these estimates do not include the indirect GHG emissions that occur in agriculturally impacted waterways. Ontario is home to over 45 000 kilometers of agricultural drainage ditches, with tile drains directly connecting terrestrial and aquatic environments. Microbial biogeochemical cycles in the causeways experience fluxes of nutrients leading to hotspots for GHG at the sediment-water interfaces. Along with fluxes of nutrients, the causeways are regularly disturbed by anthropogenic effects (e.g., dredging, removal of vegetative buffers) and increasing frequency of storm events. Previous studies have used static chambers to evaluate GHG emissions from aquatic systems (Mu et al. 2022, Xiao et al. 2016). However, this approach can be time consuming and labour intensive and is impractical in aquatic systems due potential extensive underestimation of fluxes from diffusion. To resolve driving factors contributing to GHG in these systems a detailed study investigating the activity of the microbial community is warranted. In this study we hypothesize microbial activity within the sediment will correlate with N2O emissions. To test the response of the microbial community a combination of molecular approaches (i.e., qPCR and Ion torrent) targeting archaeal and bacterial nitrifiers and denitrifies was used. These functional responses were evaluated with respect to N2O emissions, which were measured in the field at the time of sampling using Unisense N2O probes. In this study, N2O sensor response was calibrated to a functional gene index for rapid risk assessment of GHG hotspots.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":264110206,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3897\/aca.6.e107604","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/aca.pensoft.net\/article\/107604\/download\/pdf\/","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The asymptotic behavior of global solutions of nonlinear evolution equations, in particular convergence to a certain equilibrium as time tends to infinity has become one of the main concerns in the field of nonlinear evolution equations since 1980s. For one space dimension case, significant progresses have been made (see e.g., [6]). However, the situation in higher space dimension case is much more complicated. There are counterexamples (e.g., [7]) showing that even if the nonlinearity of a semilinear parabolic equation belongs to C, the \u03c9-limit set of its bounded global solution could be diffeomorphic to the unit circle S. Many assumptions have been made to ensure the convergence for bounded global solutions in the literature. In 1983, L. Simon [10] made the breakthrough that if the nonlinearity of a nonlinear parabolic equation is analytic in the dependent variable, then the convergence holds. His idea relies on the extension of a gradient inequality by S. \u0141ojasiewicz for analytic functions defined in R (Ref. [5]) to the infinite-dimensional space. Since then, a lot of work has been done in this direction (see e.g., [1\u20134, 9, 13] and the references therein). However, most of the previous work is concerned with evolution equations subject to homogeneous boundary conditions. For many nonlinear evolution equations with other type boundary conditions (for instance, the dynamical boundary condition) which are very important from the physical point of view, the framework in the previous literature as well as the \u0141ojasiewicz-Simon inequality which plays a crucial role cannot apply directly. In this short note we present some results on the study of convergence of global solutions for some nonlinear evolution equations with dynamical boundary condition. Under the basic assumption that the nonlinearity is analytic with respect to the dependent variable, we develop several new \u0141ojasiewicz-Simon type inequalities (with boundary term) which vary from problem to problem (Ref. [11, 12, 14\u201316]) and obtain the convergence result as well as the estimates for convergence rate.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":18256957,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Multi-microsecond delays for expulsion of subsonic jets of micron-size droplets and for re-radiation of UV bursts from the irradiated targets are ex-plained by subsurface explosive boiling in bulk of the resulting ultra-deep melt pool.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":120927726,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1991175179","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1117\/12.589234","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Cachexia is the term used to describe the progressive loss of muscle mass in association with severe disease. The primary resulting alteration observed in cachexia is a shift in the fundamental balance of muscle protein synthesis and muscle protein degradation. One of the diseases most commonly associated with cachexia is cancer, in which the prevalence rate is 50-80%. Furthermore, cachexia is estimated to be responsible for 20% of cancer deaths. Potentially contributing to this mortality rate is the wasting of the respiratory muscles. Despite this, relatively little research has investigated the impact of cancer cachexia on respiratory muscle wasting and dysfunction. Additionally, exercise provides promise in the implementation of a therapeutic intervention aimed at ameliorating the adverse effects of cancer cachexia.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":254522462,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.33178\/boolean.2022.1.14","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYNCND","url":"https:\/\/journals.ucc.ie\/index.php\/boolean\/article\/download\/boolean-2022-15\/6229","status":"HYBRID"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Its main purpose is to answer three questions: what, how, why ? The corpus is based on the following works : Herbert's \"Cycle of Dune\", Simmons's \"Hyperion\", Ilium and Olympos, Banks's \" Cycle of Culture \", Hamilton's \"Nights Down trilogy\", Bordage's \"Les Guerriers du silence\", Les Derniers Hommes and Wang and Ayerdhal's \" Le Daym \". First what seems to be a contradiction is analyzed through the realist dimension based on technoscience and the mythic-epic dimension. This exploration results in putting that contradiction into perspective, Then, this study will provide the reader with an in-depth account of the relationship between these two dimensions through a functional analysis of the science-fiction narrative. It demonstrates how the mythopoetic structure of the narrative stages technoscientific actors who often replace the traditional ones in folktales or fantasy. Then, a few conclusions about the consequences of this substitution can be drawn. In the last part, the causes of the presence of myth and epic in science fiction are studied with the help of a methodical classification of the recurrent mythical themes and a mythoanalysis of the contemporary views on technoscience, which emails the idea that these myths contribute to the ideological and critical dimension of science fiction, by dramatizing the fears and expectations of our societies with respect to technical and scientific innovations. This ideological and critical dimension opens up the idea that our times call into question the heritage of positivism and the radical separation of science and the sacred.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":142647507,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1566129942","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Initially, those conditions lead to monochromatic electrostatic waves, and these waves coalesce with each other during their nonlinear evolution.

Many cultures and traditions have celebrations of light at this time of the year, and some of us might have been sharing thosewith our families, friends and communities. It is likely that some of us have also experienced stress at this time of the year, either directly or through providing client services. Some of the rituals of this season have in fact become loaded with expectations that can feel overwhelming, such as exchanging gifts, feeling cheerful, and having loved ones to celebrate with. It is no coincidence that so many Hollywood comedies released at this time of the year center on family strife. In the midst of all this, relationships, intimacy and sex are no less affected than our mental health. Nevertheless, I believe that rituals are an important part of life.

In this, how to explain it with the locational analysis approach is an important and interesting topic to economic geographers.

Thus far, although new economic geographers have observed agglomeration of the economic activities in border regions in an opening economy, they have not set up a useful explanation. This paper, based on setting up a mechanism of enterprises\u2032 agglomeration in the border region, analyses the border location by the means of integrating traditional location theories and that of the new economic geography.

The radial and ulnar lengths of PQ, the distal and proximal widths of PQ, the distances from the distal end of PQ to the articular surface of the distal radius and to the transverse line of the wrist, and the width of the bony tunnel of PQ were dissected and measured to study the anatomical features of PQ. A retrospective study was conducted of the 18 distal radius fractures which had been treated from March 2015 to March 2017 by internal fixation with T-shaped anatomic locking compression plate (LCP) with PQ preserved. They were 8 males and 10 females, with an average age of 52.7 years (range, from 28 to 65 years).

+{"text":"We prove that, assuming the Unique Games conjecture (UGC), every problem in the class of ordering constraint satisfaction problems (OCSPs) where each constraint has constant arity is approximation resistant. In other words, we show that if $\\rho$ is the expected fraction of constraints satisfied by a random ordering, then obtaining a $\\rho'$ approximation for any $\\rho'>\\rho$ is UG-hard. For the simplest OCSP, the Maximum Acyclic Subgraph (MAS) problem, this implies that obtaining a $\\rho$-approximation for any constant $\\rho>1\/2$ is UG-hard. Specifically, for every constant $\\varepsilon>0$ the following holds: given a directed graph $G$ that has an acyclic subgraph consisting of a fraction $(1-\\varepsilon)$ of its edges, it is UG-hard to find one with more than $(1\/2+\\varepsilon)$ of its edges. Note that it is trivial to find an acyclic subgraph with $1\/2$ the edges by taking either the forward or backward edges in an arbitrary ordering of the vertices of $G$. The MAS problem has been well studied, and beating the random ordering for MAS has been a basic open problem. An OCSP of arity $k$ is specified by a subset $\\Pi\\subseteq S_k$ of permutations on $\\{1,2,\\dots,k\\}$. An instance of such an OCSP is a set $V$ and a collection of constraints, each of which is an ordered $k$-tuple of $V$. The objective is to find a global linear ordering of $V$ while maximizing the number of constraints ordered as in $\\Pi$. A random ordering of $V$ is expected to satisfy a $\\rho=\\frac{|\\Pi|}{k!}$ fraction. We show that, for any fixed $k$, it is hard to obtain a $\\rho'$-approximation for $\\Pi$-OCSP for any $\\rho'>\\rho$. The result is in fact stronger: we show that for every $\\Lambda\\subseteq\\Pi\\subseteq S_k$, and an arbitrarily small $\\varepsilon$, it is hard to distinguish instances where a $(1-\\varepsilon)$ fraction of the constraints can be ordered according to $\\Lambda$ from instances where at most a $(\\rho+\\varepsilon)$ fraction can be ordered as in $\\Pi$. A special case of our result is that the Betweenness problem is hard to approximate beyond a factor $1\/3$. The results naturally generalize to OCSPs which assign a payoff to the different permutations. Finally, our results imply (unconditionally) that a simple semidefinite relaxation for MAS does not suffice to obtain a better approximation.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":7989865,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1575386191","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1137\/090756144","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"http:\/\/www.nada.kth.se\/%7Ejohanh\/ghmrc.pdf","status":"GREEN"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"This article analyses the spiritual scope of Waldorf education with the help of the concept of reflexive spirituality. It outlines the problems of different conceptions of religion in relation to the examination of new religious phenomena in the conditions of late modernity. This analysis describes the influence of the reflexivity of modernity, framed by Giddens' theory of modernity, on religion and analyses its shifts on three relevant levels: internalization of religion, deinstitutionalization and the related redefinition of religious authority, and the replacement of legitimization by tradition with legitimization by science. The author presents the concept of reflexive spirituality as theorized by American sociologist of religion Kelly Besecke, which involves the described shifts and furthermore monitors reflexive spiritual aspects of Waldorf education through analysis of the texts dealing with the phenomenon. The author discusses the concept of individuality as a spiritual incarnation, the understanding of school as community, and the search for balance between scientific findings and spiritual facts that are in compliance with the principal features of reflexive spirituality. The concept enables assessment of the potential to redefine certain aspects of late modern culture in Waldorf schools. In the Czech context, where those schools are run by the state, this seems to be the fact with real social implications.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":249376416,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In this context, excess capacity might on the one hand be seen as making excessive risk taking in order to maintain profitability more likely (see BIS 1996), while on the other the potentially disruptive consequences of a rapid removal of capacity from the banking sector are also seen as a cause for concern.

+{"text":"Multiple instance (MI) learning is a recent learning paradigm that is more flexible than standard supervised learning algorithms in the handling of label ambiguity. It has been used in a wide range of applications including image classification, object detection and object tracking. Typically, MI algorithms are trained in a batch setting in which the whole training set has to be available before training starts. However, in applications such as tracking, the classifier needs to be trained continuously as new frames arrive. Motivated by the empirical success of a batch MI algorithm called MILES, we propose in this paper an online MI learning algorithm that has an efficient online update procedure and also performs joint feature selection and classification as MILES. Besides, while existing online MI algorithms lack theoretical properties, we prove that the proposed online algorithm has a (cumulative) regret of O(\u221aT), where T is the number of iterations. In other words, the average regret goes to zero asymptotically and it thus achieves the same performance as the best solution in hindsight. Experiments on a number of MI classification and object tracking data sets demonstrate encouraging results.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":9549466,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2134052170","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/CVPR.2010.5539805","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Due to the Glacial Isostatic Adjustment (GIA), crustal subsidence occurred in the progalcial area and further from the ice sheet a compensational rise was formed towards which the Volga River valley was directed. The study is aimed at the investigation of the influence of GIA-induced changes in gradients during MIS 2 and the Holocene on the evolution of the Volga River valley. At the key site near the Bolshaya Kosha village (Selizharovo district, the Tver Oblast) it was found that prior the LGM the alluvial aggradation in the valley was most probably associated with the decrease of valley gradient because of the GIA-induced formation of a crustal proglacial flexure. However, the total depth of subsidence was not enough to completely stop the Volga River flow and promote the formation of a proglacial lake. During the LGM the highest (third) and widest river terrace was formed by both river and glacial melt waters. After the LGM the river incision resulted in the formation of a terrace staircase. The incision was caused by the increase of valley gradient due to the glacio-isostatic uplift of the proglacial area in the process of deglaciation. The incision was over in the Mid-Holocene (about 6 kyr BP). The total depth of incision was 15 m and the average incision rate was about 1 mm\/year.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":216544584,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3013698455","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Traditionally the administrations of Democratic presidents have sought the aid and counsel of social scientists more than have Republican administrations. It seems probable that this tradition will be carried on by the present Carter administration, especially in view of Vice President Mondale's long record of social science support, which includes his sponsorship in the Senate of the Full Opportunity and Social Accounting Act. Had it been approved, this act, among its other provisions, would have established a President's Council of Social Advisers and required the President to submit an annual Social Report to Congress (Mondale). While we social scientists may derive some pleasure from contemplating future public recognition of our value to society that fits more closely our own assessment, we might benefit more by reflecting on our capabilities to meet greater demands for social knowledge. It is perhaps fortunate that the relative neglect of social scientists in the formulation of","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":154140458,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2030712953","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1093\/SF\/56.2.504","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Spacecraft electrical power subsystems require continuous monitoring, ground supported analysis of performance, and ground intervention to provide power management and fault correction. An interplanetary fly-by mission to the outer planets necessitates long periods of relatively low activity between encounters. It would be desirable to minimize ground access and support during these times if it can be shown that power management and fault removal functions can be implemented economically and reliably within the power subsystem flight equipment. This paper describes the interim results of a study to develop the techniques and implementation methods to provide a power subsystem capable of autonomous fault correction and power management. Each subsystem element is analyzed to define failure modes and failure characteristics which permit identification of fault correction methods. Fault protection concepts for each classification of loads are formulated to provide a high probability of delivering power to the load yet protect the power subsystem in the event of a load fault. The Mariner Jupiter\/Saturn power subsystem elements formed the baseline for this study.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":109215814,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2026791075","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/PESC.1973.7065164","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Results There were very strong correlations between the 15 week in vivo MRI data and 16 week ex vivo data for intrabdominal fat (r=0.99), intrascapular brown fat (r=0.93) and intrahepatic fat (IHCL; r=0.97; all p<0.0001). The result of the power calculations showed that for intrabdominal and intrahepatic fat variables, group sizes and total animals needed can be reduced by using a non-invasive method such as MRI where each animal acts as its own control (Table 1). IHCL was plotted against intraabdominal fat as % of BW (%IAT) for all in vivo measurement points (Fig. 2). IHCL did not change when %IAT ranged from 0-5% but showed a linear rise with a shallow slope in the range of 5 to 15% and a slope that was almost vertical at %IAT above 15 (corresponding to a body weight above 45 g). A similar pattern was seen when IHCL was plotted against body weight. Discussion The results demonstrate that MRI can be used to follow whole body adiposity and intrahepatic lipid content longitudinally with excellent precision compared to ex vivo measurements. The power analysis illustrates the importance of MRI for serially and non-invasively monitoring the phenotypic changes after diet or an intervention when each animal is used as its own control. This allows for a substantial reduction in animal usage in agreement to the 3R's mandate. Obese mice undergoing a diet switch showed an improvement in body adiposity and intrahepatic fat content showing that these phenotypes are reversible upon adequate intervention. The results also demonstrate for the first time in this animal model the effect of increasing adiposity on liver fat accumulation with clear break points defining low and extremely high lipid accumulation trajectories. A simple explanation for this sudden steep increase in IHCL level may be related to the limitation in triglyceride deposition in adipose tissue storage depots, which may divert triglycerides for accumulation in other tissues such as the liver [2]. These results also provide baseline data set for comparing different animal models of obesity and diabetes and for evaluating the effect of pharmacological interventions in these mice.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":39507447,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2187490138","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

We found that the polarization-dependent transient signal was most enhanced at , which was close to the intramolecular excitation energy of the BEDT-TTF molecules but is not exactly matched. This difference is linked to the formation of an energy gap at the Fermi energy at low temperatures, which results in an increase or decrease in pump-induced absorption between the states near the Fermi energy and the intramolecular excited states depending on probe polarization. In other words, the intramolecular excitation at 1.41 eV, which has a strong polarization dependence, serves as a probe of the dynamics involved in gap formation. A simple calculation shows that the size of the gap is , which is close to that of the BEDT-TTF based Mott insulators.

+{"text":"Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effects of HIFU on uterine leiomyoma. Methods Thirty-three patients with uterine leiomyoma were treated with HIFU in the study. The inner echoes,blood supplies and volumes of myomas in 25 non-operative patients were observed by the color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI) three months after treatment. Eight patients who received operation after HIFU treatment were observed 24 hours later via contrast-enhanced MRI. Histopathologic changes were compared before and after the HIFU treatment. Results The obvious necrosis in the area of uterine leiomyoma was treated with HIFU treatment and was observed in 8 operative patients after 24 hour therapy. The size of necrosis was in accordance with the size of the treatment areas. The cell degeneration and necrosis,nuclear hyperchromatism and pycnosis as well as microangiums injuries were observed in the uterine leiomyoma by the microscope. Twenty-five non-operative patients were followed up for 3-16 months after HIFU. The clinical symptoms were alleviated or recovered in 23 patients,among them; 4 patients had no evidence of residual tumor,and the tumor volume was decreased by 20.1%-94.3% in 19 patients; two patients had no change in the size of the tumor. Thirteen patients (13\/33) had adverse effects (e.g. transient radiated pain) due to sacro-coccygeal nerve stimulation,rectal prolapse and bladder irritation. Moreover,2 patients experienced first-degree skin burn,which was self-limited without any treatment on the next day.

The aim of the current study was to explore the barriers and facilitators to commissioning and implementing a dementia friendly exercise and physical activity-based intervention (PrAISED (Promoting Activity, Stability and Independence in Early Dementia and Mild Cognitive Impairment)) in practice. Methods: Qualitative semi-structured interviews were conducted with stakeholders from a range of backgrounds including individuals from universities, research centres, the voluntary and community sector, health and social care, and local government in England. The Consolidated Framework for Intervention Research (CFIR) was used to guide the design and analysis. Fourteen participants took part, including commissioning managers, service managers, partnership managers, charity representatives, commercial research specialists, academics\/researchers, and healthcare professionals. Results: Data were represented in 33 constructs across the five CFIR domains. Key barriers included cost\/financing, the culture of commissioning, and available resources. Key facilitators included the adaptability of the intervention, cosmopolitanism\/partnerships and connections, external policy and incentives, and the use of already existing (and untapped) workforces.

+{"text":"This study focuses on the optimization of child well spacing to mitigate fracture hits caused by hydraulic fracturing near depleted fractured rocks. Fracture hits lead to damage in the parent wells and significantly reduce the productivity of child wells due to the substantial loss of fracture fluids and proppant to the parent well. The reduction in child well productivity can exceed 50% and is influenced by well spacing and parent well(s) depletion time.\n To achieve this optimization, the study combines decline curve analysis (DCA) and reservoir volumetric calculations to estimate the depleted pore volume impacted by the parent well(s). This allows for the estimation of depletion radii for the parent wells.\n By analyzing production history in an actual field case, depletion radii for shale wells were estimated. The preliminary results indicated that child wells with spacing greater than the depletion radius of parent wells did not experience frac hits, in contrast to those within the depletion radius, and these findings were further confirmed through fracture-driven interactions (FDIs).\n By estimating the depletion radii of parent wells, this study presents a more efficient and cost-effective method for optimizing well spacing in unconventional reservoirs. This approach helps to avoid detrimental frac hits, minimize parent well damage, and improve the productivity of child wells, thus maximizing the overall performance of hydraulic fracturing operations near depleted fractured rocks.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":263657160,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.2118\/215921-ms","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Let us consider the beam from a laser. Very often it is assumed that the laser oscillates on the fundamental TEMoo gaussian mode. In this case, the \"width\" of the beam at any plane orthogonal to the propagation axis can be measured by the spot size, whose rate of change on paraxial propagation is well known [ 1 ]. The inherent simplicity of this approach is due to the fact that the fundamental gaussian mode (and indeed any higher-order gaussian mode) has the property o f being shape invariant on paraxial propagation. Unfortunately, many lasers produce beams that are only approximately gaussian, if not altogether different (e.g., beams from unstable cavities). This has two main consequences. First, the beam loses its shape invariance property so that the spot size is no longer well defined. Second, the angular divergence o f the beam increases, roughly speaking, with respect to the case o f a truly gaussian beam of equivalent waist width. In order to characterize a real laser beam, one has first to define its width at a typical cross section. Among several possible definitions [ 2 ] it has been proposed [3-6 ] to use the one, well familiar from quantum mechanics, that identifies the squared width with the variance o f the squared modulus o f the transverse field distribution. We shall recall the exact definition in the next section. It has been shown [3,5 ] that for any type o f mode the variance changes along the propagation axis according to a law quite similar to the one holding for gaussian beams. More precisely, there exists a waist cross section o f the beam where the variance has a minimum. On either sides o f this cross section, the variance increases proportionally to the square o f the distance from the waist. The proportionality factor accounting for the rate or increase o f the variance can be taken as an indication o f the beam quality in the sense that smaller values o f the proportionality factor denote better-quality beams. For a given waist variance, the min imum value o f the proportionality factor is attained by the lowest-order gaussian beam. Then, a dimensionless quality factor can be introduced by comparing the rate o f increase o f the variance o f a given beam with the corresponding rate of a gaussian beam with the same waist width. This is the so called M 2 factor, whose precise definition will be seen later.

+{"text":"Mimosine (leucenol; 3 [ 3 -hydroxy-rl-oxo1 (4H)-pyridinyllalanine } is a non-protein amino acid of plant origin (see Fowden et al., 1967). Several studies .have shown that mimosinecontaining plants and mimosine itself are toxic to animals (Matsumoto et al., 1951; Owen, 1958; Hegarty et al., 1964). The toxicity of mimosine has also been studied in cell culture (Tsai & Ling, 1971; Prabhakaran et al., 1973). Exposure of cells in culture for relatively long periods causes inhibition of DNA synthesis (Tsai & Ling, 1971, 1972; Hegarty et al., 1978). In a previous report we showed that mimosine had an inhibitory effect on RNA synthesis in Ehrlich ascites-tumour cells. The inhibition was concentration-dependent in the range of 0.05-1 mwmimosine. It was found also that the inhibition was much more pronounced when the cells were preincubated with mimosine before their capacity for RNA synthesis was determined (Itzhaki & Abdulla, 1982). The work was extended to study the action of mimosine in a wider range of concentration on the synthesis of both RNA and DNA. Ehrlich ascites-tumour cells were grown in mice (Itzhaki, 1972), harvested, washed with 0.9% NaCl and suspended in the incubation medium. RNA synthesis was measured as the rate of [5-3H]uridine incorporation into RNA of cells incubated at 37OC with the labelled precursor for 20min (Harwood & Itzhaki, 1973). In a similar set of determinations DNA synthesis was measured as the rate of incorporation of Irneth~l-~Hlthymidine into DNA. Comparison was made in all cases between cells which were incubated with mimosine for 1 h before the determination of RNA or DNA synthesis and those where the effect of mimosine was tested directly without a period of preincubation. The results show that for RNA synthesis, mimosine has a biphasic action in the preincubated series of experiments. A gradual increase in inhibition of RNA synthesis is observed when the concentration of mimosine is increased from 0 . 0 2 m ~ to about 0.5 mM, reaching a maximum inhibition of 75%. When the concentration of mimosine is raised from 1 to 6 m ~ , the inhibition of RNA synthesis gradually decreased, such that the rate of RNA synthesis returned to almost 80% of the control value. However, when RNA synthesis was measured directly in a 20min period of incubation without a period of preincubation, a slight inhibitory effect was observed at the higher range of mimosine concentrations. The results also confirm the earlier observations (Itzhaki & Abdulla, 1982) that a preincubation period is required to detect the action of mimosine. The effect of mimosine on DNA synthesis was quite different. Here, no noticeable effect was obtained with 0.02-0.2 m ~ mimosine. As the concentration was raised there was a gradual stimulation of DNA synthesis, with a broad peak around 3-4m~-mimosine, when the rate of DNA synthesis reached a value of 40-50% above that of control. Moreover, the pattern of thymidine incorporation into DNA is similar in both the preincubated and the non-preincubated series. The results indicate clearly that the requirement for a period of contact of the cells with mimosine for the latter to act on RNA synthesis may be related to its metabolism inside the cell during the duration of preincubation. The metabolism of mimosine in animal tissues has been studied, and among the products found to be formed are mimosinic acid and mimosinamine (Tang & Ling, 1977). It is possible that the action of mimosine on RNA synthesis observed here is due to a metabolite, or it may be brought about by a combination of effects of more than one metabolite of mimosine. In contrast. mimosine may itself exert the stimulatory action on DNA synthesis observed here; however, we have no indication as to its mechanism of action.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":87504448,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2346162100","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1042\/BST0100502","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Generally, battery power is a valuable resource for mobile devices in a Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET). Therefore, energy efficiency and network lifetime should be taken into account when developing control strategies. However, designing an energy-efficient routing mechanism necessitates consideration of many nodes from many layers, such as remaining energy, overall traffic load, and channel assumptions. The traditional layered strategy is unsuccessful in dealing with power-related issues that might affect all layers of the stack. In this paper, the Energy Centric Tunicate Swarm Algorithm (ECTSA) is proposed to perform the cross-layer routing over MANET. The fitness metrics considered in the ECTSA to improve the cross-layer routing are residual energy, communication cost, Data Success Rate (DSR), and mobility. Additionally, an Adaptive Competition Window (ACW) adjustment is used for minimizing the energy consumption caused by the contentions. The performance of the proposed ECTSA is analyzed by means of energy consumption, Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), End-to-End Delay (EED), and routing overhead. Next, the existing techniques, namely, CEELBRP and EECRP-PSO, are used to evaluate the efficiency of the ECTSA method. The energy consumption of the ECTSA is 7.1 joules and prolongs the network lifetime up to 1603 s for 50 nodes, which is better when compared to the existing CEELBRP and EECRP-PSO techniques.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":253172510,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3390\/su142113925","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2071-1050\/14\/21\/13925\/pdf?version=1667984627","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In addition, HSV-2 reactivation in co-infected patients is associated with elevated plasma and genital HIV-1 levels as well as increased risk of HIV-1 transmission to HIV-negative partners. Multiple trials have demonstrated that, on average, co-infected patients taking the anti-HSV medications acyclovir or valacyclovir experience a reduction in HIV-1 plasma viremia. However, it is unclear if this reduction in HIV-1 levels is an indirect effect attributable to decreased HSV-induced inflammation, or if the medication is directly inhibiting HIV-1 reverse transcription. In a recent report published in JAIDS, Drs. Tara Perti (University of Washington), Anna Wald (Vaccine and Infectious Disease Division), and their collaborators demonstrate that HIV-1 viremia was lower in patients treated with high-dose valacyclovir compared to standard dose acyclovir, even though valacyclovir had no additional effect on HSV-2 shedding in these patients.

+{"text":"Acute lung injury (ALI) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are characterized by inflammatory response to a local (pulmonary) or remote (systemic) insult resulting in injury to alveolar epithelial and endothelial barriers of the lung, leading to hypoxemia and respiratory failure. Objective: This study aimed to determine the difference between PRVC and BIPAP modes in mechanically ventilated patients with an acute lung injury. Methods: This study was carried out on 74 consecutive adult patients, who were admitted to the units of Critical Care Medicine department in Alexandria Main University Hospital and diagnosed as acute lung injury. The studied patients were serially randomized into two groups using the closed envelop method, Group I: Including (37) patients in whom the BiPAP mode of mechanical ventilation was applied and Group II: Including (37) patients in whom the PRVC mode of mechanical ventilation was applied The following parameters were measured in the patients of both groups Hemodynamics, Lung mechanics on mechanical ventilation, days of ICU stay, days of mechanical ventilation , Patient ventilator dyssynchrony and mortality and Incidence of VAP. Results: There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups as regards heart rate and mean arterial blood pressure. There was statistically significant decrease in the mean and peak airway pressure in the PRVC group compared to BIPAP group in the first 3 days. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups as regards calculated lung parameters. There was statistically significant increase in hypoxic index (PaO2\/FIO2) in the first three days in the PRVC group compared to BIPAP group without significant difference in PaO2, SPO2 and PaCO2. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups as regards Patient ventilator dyssynchrony and mortality & ventilator associated pneumonia. Also there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups as regards ICU & ventilator days. Conclusions: PRVC ventilation is beneficial mode of ventilation that decrease both peak and mean air way pressure and can improve oxygenation in patients with acute lung injury in comparison with BIPAP ventilation. Introduction In 1994, the first American European Consensus Conference (AECC) published these consensus-derived definitions of ALI and ARDS: acute onset, bilateral pulmonary infiltrates on chest radiograph consistent with pulmonary edema, poor systemic oxygenation, and the absence of evidence of left atrial hypertension . The ratio of arterial oxygen tension (PaO2) to the fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2), PaO2:FiO2 was chosen to reflect the degree of hypoxemia even when measured at different FiO2 . (2) The syndrome is called ALI when this ratio is \u2264300 and ARDS when \u2264 200. The AECC coined the term acute lung injury in order to identify patients who are early in the course of their ARDS and those who may have a form of acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) that is milder than ARDS. (2) The Berlin Definition of ARDS (published in 2012) has replaced the American-European Consensus Conference's definition of ARDS (published in 1994). However, it should be recognized that most evidence is based upon prior definitions. Mechanical ventilation is the cornerstone of management of ARDS. The best ventilator strategy to treat and manage ARDS is a debatable subject. (4) BIPAP is a pressure-controlled ventilation, during which unrestricted spontaneous breathing is possible in each phase of the respiratory cycle. It delivers a preset inspiratory positive airway pressure (IPAP) and expiratory positive airway pressure (EPAP).BIPAP can be described as a Continuous Positive Airway Pressure system with a time-cycled change of the applied CPAP level. The circuit switches between a high and a low airway pressure level in an adjustable time sequence. At both pressure levels, the patient can breathe spontaneously in a CPAP system. In recent years, dual-control modes has been introduced in an attempt to combine the attributes of volume ventilation with the attributes of pressure ventilation (7) , to avoid both the high peak airway pressures of volume ventilation and also the varying tidal volume that may occur with pressure ventilation. Pressure-regulated volume control (PRVC) mode is a kind of dual-control ventilation that uses tidal volume as a feedback control for continuously adjusting the pressure limit . Pressure-regulated volume control (PRVC) is a new mode of ventilation that combines the advantages of the decelerating inspiratory flow pattern of a pressure-control mode with the ease of use of a volume-control (VC) mode.This mode, by the name of PRVC, is only available on the Maquet Servo-i \u00ae and Servo 300 \u00ae, but is characteristic of all ventilators with dual modes, such as: Volume Control Plus (VC +, Puritan Bennett \u00ae), adaptive pressure ventilation (Hamilton Galileo), Autoflow (Drager \u00ae). (10) Research and Opinion in Anesthesia & Intensive Care Volume 2 ROAIC September 2014 54 Aim of the work The aim of this work was to determine the difference between PRVC and BIPAP modes in mechanically ventilated patients with an acute lung injury. Patients and Methods This study was carried out according to sample size calculation (NCSS 2004 and PASS 2000 Program) on 74 adult critically ill patients with acute lung injury who were admitted to the units of the critical care medicine department of the Alexandria Main University Hospital. Inclusion criteria: Adult patients of both sex above 18 years old with acute lung injury indicated for mechanical ventilation according to AECC criteria . Exclusion criteria: Pregnant females. Patients with an expected ventilator therapy of less than 5 days. Patients with intracranial pathology.

The chambered gastric segment preparation was used and because of toxic systemic effects of elevated plasma K+ ion concentration, local plasma K+ ion concentration was elevated by close arterial injection. Close arterial injection of KCl resulted in a decrease in P.D., a decrease in resistance, and a marked blanching of the mucosa. Control experiments with NaCl and NaHCO3 did not result in blanching and had relatively little influence on P.D. or resistance.

As a result of hyperglycemia, lesions of the esophagus, stomach, small and large intestine develop. The most common disorder of the digestive system in diabetes is gastroparesis. The diagnosis of gastroparesis is currently insufficient. It is connected with low awareness and, as a consequence, rare visit of patients to specialists, and also with similarity of clinical symptoms with other functional disorders of gastrointestinal tract. The main risk factors for gastroparesis are hyperglycemia, smoking, alcohol, and certain medications. Most patients with gastroparesis suffer from depression and increased anxiety. Taking medications to treat depression negatively affects the function of the digestive system. This problem interferes with patients' quality of life.

+{"text":"Although the acute attacks do not appear to have serious long-term effects, the prognosis of familial Mediterranean fever is dictated by the associated amyloidosis. Amyloid deposits are sparsely distributed in many organs; there may be mild splenomegaly and a rectal biopsy specimen usually contains amyloid material. Other organs are not usually enlarged or compromised, except for the kidney. Onset of the nephrotic syndrome heralds the inevitable development of renal failure, the usual cause of death in patients with familial Mediterranean fever. The onset of amyloidosis may be in the first decade of life, and in some patients even antedates acute attacks by months or years. Before haemodialysis was available patients usually died about five years after onset of the nephrotic syndrome. Some patients have had cadaveric kidney transplants, but amyloidosis occurs in the transplant within three or four years.8 9 When survival is prolonged as a result of haemodialysis or renal transplantation amyloid deposits in other organs, such as the liver, the thyroid, and the adrenal, may become of clinical significance.2 10 Until the early 1970s there was no effective treatment for familial Mediterranean fever. Corticosteroids, immunosuppressive drugs, and anti-inflammatory agents did not influence the attacks. Colchicine had been thought to have little effect when used to treat attacks, but in 1972 it was found to prevent them if taken regularly.1' Most patients can have their attacks abolished or appreciably reduced in number and severity with doses of 1 or 2 mg daily. Proteinuria also appears to diminish in patients with amyloidosis after prolonged colchicine treatment.12 Colchicine is thought to inhibit the activation and release of lysosomes from phagocytic cells. A raised serum concentration of AMP during acute attacks is evidence that this activation occurs in familial Mediterranean fever, and the AMP concentration does indeed fall to normal after colchicine treatment.13 Although we must remain vigilant about the long-term safety of taking colchicine regularly, there are so far no reports to suggest that continuous treatment is dangerous.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":7651582,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2135529549","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1136\/bmj.281.6232.3","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/www.bmj.com\/content\/bmj\/281\/6232\/3.full.pdf","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

As passenger ships consume more fuel than other vessel types, the shore power regulation poses additional challenges for the port of Helsinki.

However, using statistical methods to find the association and effects between vessel movements and port air quality measurements, ship departures were found to have noticeable increases in the hourly mean NO2 concentration measured at the port terminals.

Mathematical models are established based on the functional analysis, the energy and mass balance equations as well as correlations of the thermophysical properties. The input parameters of model are the desired product flow rate, the brine\/feed salinity and the feed seawater temperature. The design solutions are qualified using a quality index and they are defined by the temperature of brine and distillate streams as design variables. The overall design problem has been formulated as a Mixed Complementarity Problem (MCP) and solved with the PATH solver using the platform GAMS (General Algebraic Modeling System). The results demonstrate the influence of the design variables on the system architecture and its electric power consumption which define the quality index. A large gap between the design variables reduces the heat transfer area, but increases the specific power consumption of the vapor compressor.

+{"text":"Continuous peripheral nerve blocks (CPNBs) have come a long way since 1946, when Ansbro1 published his method for supraclavicular \"fractional injections\" via a needle inserted through a cork taped to a patient's chest. Although the use of corks and tape in clinical practice is rare today, the use of CPNBs for postoperative analgesia has become commonplace. It is well established that effective regional analgesia decreases postoperative pain and nausea and vomiting, facilitates patient discharge, improves rehabilitation, and enhances patient satisfaction. Two of the main arguments in favor of CPNBs compared with single peripheral nerve block (SPNB) are that catheters (1) provide superior analgesia, by virtue of the extended duration, and (2) enhance safety and patient satisfaction because local anesthetics can be titrated to produce a differential motor and sensory block. These arguments are supported by a recent meta-analysis showing a benefit of CPNB in pain scores, nausea, opioid consumption, sleep, and satisfaction compared with SPNB.2 In 2011, Anesthesia & Analgesia published one of the first comprehensive reviews of CPNBs, with a call for further research into their role in anesthetic practice.3 In the subsequent 5 years, the article was cited >150 times, and there have been nearly 200 articles published on the subject. In this edition of Anesthesia & Analgesia, Ilfeld3 updates his previous review of the literature, summarizes the current state of research, and defines the burgeoning clinical applications for CPNBs.4 This review is an impressive and timely update on a topic of great interest. Several novel sites for catheter placement are described, with a particular emphasis on adductor canal catheters after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). In 2011, the primary indication for CPNBs was to provide analgesia after elective orthopedic surgery. As the current review highlights, there are multiple new indications for CPNBs, including traumatic rib fractures, phantom limb pain, organ transplant, and manipulation for adhesive capsulitis. To make CPNBs worthwhile, the argument needs to be advanced that catheters offer superior analgesia and\/or superior safety compared with SPNB. Ideally, CPNB would also be associated with cost benefits that outweigh the not insignificant resources required for the implementation and maintenance of these programs. The first question to be answered is whether the disadvantages of CPNB, including the additional time needed for placement and management, higher risk of infection, and neurologic complications, leakage, and dislodgement, are outweighed by the quality and duration of analgesia that can be achieved. Here, Ilfeld reviews 4 alternatives to CPNB for extended analgesia and concludes that in each case, the catheter is likely superior. In the case of adjuvants, none have been definitively shown to extend the duration of SPNB beyond approximately 24 hours. Ilfeld argues convincingly, based on the data from several RCTs, that liposomal bupivacaine is probably not even equivalent to plain bupivacaine for analgesia after TKA, much less superior to CPNB. He considers cryoneurolysis, but this technique is still in its infancy, and there are insufficient data regarding safety, efficacy, and direct comparisons with CPNB. Finally, percutaneous nerve stimulation is an intriguing emerging alternative to CPNB because it obviates the requirement for local anesthetics and, consequently, all associated risks and pitfalls. However, there is probably no practical advantage when the method of placement is compared with CPNB, and there are no comparative studies on the resulting analgesia. Although duration of analgesia can clearly be extended using CPNB, it remains to be seen how that fills an unmet clinical need. If pain persisting beyond 24 hours can be effectively treated with alternative modalities (eg, intravenous, oral, and\/or epidural analgesia), what does CPNB add? The adductor canal block (ACB) for analgesia after TKA poses an excellent test case for the practicality of CPNB versus SPNB. The average duration of severe painlimiting functional recovery after TKA is 2 days (for pain at rest) to 3 days (for pain with ambulation).5 Combined with lumbar epidural, an ACB with plain bupivacaine produces analgesia up to 48 hours after TKA that is comparable with femoral nerve block but without the quadricep weakness that can lead to falls.6 Peripheral Nerve Catheters: Ready for a Central Role?","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":45836793,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2562446796","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1213\/ANE.0000000000001642","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In this context, we conducted a subjective study on a UHD video database, BVI-BD, to explore the relationship between bit depth and visual quality. In this paper, three bit depth adaptation methods are investigated, including linear scaling, error diffusion, and a novel adaptive Gaussian filtering approach for up-sampling. The results from a subjective experiment indicate that above a critical bit depth, bit depth adaptation has no significant impact on perceptual quality, while reducing the amount information that is required to be transmitted. Below the critical bit depth, the more 'advanced' adaptation methods can be used to retain 'good' visual quality down to around 2 bits per color channel for the experimental setup - far lower than the common 8 bits per color channel.

Navigating an agricultural tractor in an open field is relatively easily done with Global Navigation Satellite Systems.

This paper designs a positioning system for (semi-) autonomous navigation of agricultural tractors in vineyards that uses standard ultra-sonic automotive sensors as the main sensors. The goal of the system is to estimate the distance from the left vineyard row and the incidence angle. The paper shows that a standard Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) cannot estimate the position of the vehicle accurately enough because of holes in the vegetation or branches. We solve these issues by using an augmented model for the EKF and by introducing a data-selection stage that discards measurements that do not fall on the tracked row.

Various propietary compounds were used to seal or coat concrete specimens prior to exposure to distilled water which was regularly renewed and through which carbon dioxide had been bubbled to saturation, thereby forming carbonic acid. The object of the tests was to determine whether it was necessary to treat well cured concrete for protection against carbonic acid. Economic justification for the use of the sealing compounds was therefore in question. The performance of the surface-treated concrete was compared with that of control, untreated concrete on the basis of: (a) brushed and unbrushed mass loss of the specimens with time, (b) water absorption of the surface layers and, (c) gas permeability of the surface layers. In addition, microscopic studies were used to determine the penetration of the sealants. The results showed that for well cured concrete, little or no advantage is to be gained by the use of surface treatments against the corrosive environment in question. This was not surprising since the microstructure of the surface concrete was dense and difficult for sealants to penetrate.

One of them is Bebekli dam, which has an earth fill embankment having a 34.0 m height from river bed, located at the western part of Turkey. A seismic evaluation of dam site was performed in detail. For the dam site, a seismic\u2013hazard source was obtained as based on local seismic events and a ground motion model was produced by means of the appropriate attenuation relationships. The dynamic analysis of 2-D finite element model of dam-foundation system shows that the maximum value of settlement is 58.5 cm on the crest under the loading of Maximum Design Earthquake.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":201864174,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Estimates of bacterial production based on 3H-Thymidine incorporation and growth of bacteria in a predator-reduced environment (<3\/\/m) showed that results from the latter method agreed well with the lower estimate of production from the 3H-Thyrnidine incorporation method, giving increased confidence in our estimate of production Bacterial carbon production was highest in the euphotic zone at the peak of a phytoplankton bloom and amounted to 15 %. of the total fixed carbon. Under these conditions, it was calculated that photosynthetic exudates (ca. 30% of primary production) could entirely meet bacterial carbon demands. As the bloom senesced and decayed, bacterial production exceeded phytoplankton production by an order of magnitude. In such circumstances, photosynthetic exudation was insufficient to meet bacterial carbon demands. However, at this stage, detrital POC dominated the carbon biomass and this source of carbon was utilised by the bacteria. This was also true in the aphotic zone below the pycnocline. Differential utilisation of photosynthetic exudates and detrital POC by bacterioplank ton during the course of a bloom might account for the varying significance ascribed to exudates and I'OC as a source of carbon for bacterial production.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":87600702,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2289921201","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The structural complexity within the basement complex of Zaria batholith makes refraction survey and interpretation a very difficult task. Assignment of picked travel time into different layers which is critical for refraction tomography inversion is almost impossible, because it is very difficult to determine when the refraction event becomes the first break in a processed seismic data. Therefore, this research work is aimed at designing a technique that will help in establishing the time at which the refraction event becomes the first break in such situation. The procedure involves conventional travel time plots, identification of the time at which the refraction energy arrives with the aid of the conventional time plot, assignment of layers to the various travel time picks and the tomography inversion process. The results of the conventional travel time plots revealed that average time at which the refraction event becomes the first break was determined to be 33 ms. This was used to assign layers to the travel time picks that were used for tomography inversion that generated a tomography model that correlated very well with a borehole log sited at the centre of the profile. It was concluded that conventional refraction travel time plot will serve as a viable tool for estimating the time at which the refraction event becomes the first break necessary for refraction tomography inversion in regions of substantial complexity or for seismic refraction data that has very low signal to noise ratio. \u00a9 2017 Elixir All rights reserved.

Geology of the area Zaria is underlain by Precambrian basement rocks which comprise of older granite, gneisses and low grade metasediment. It has been established that the Zaria batholiths intruded into the gneissic and meta-sediment complex which form the country rock. The older granite outcrops in the vicinity of Zaria are exposures of a syntectonics to latetectonic granite batholiths which intruded a crystalline gneissic basement during the Pan-African Orogeny. This batholith is a north-south oriented body, about 90 x 22 km, extending from Zaria southward to the vicinity of Kaduna (Fig 3). The Zaria granite batholith belong to a suite of syn and late tectonic granites and granodiorites that marked the intrusive phase of the late Precambrian to early Palaeozoic Pan-African Orogeny in Nigeria [6]. These granites and granodiorites intruded into low grade meta-sediments and gneisses and were collectively called the \"Older granites\". Figure 3 . Geological Map of Zaria, showing the geology of the area, after [6]. Data acquisition The data acquisition started by laying out the geophone at intervals of 5 m on a straight profile. The reels of cable with take-outs were laid out, and the geophones were connected to the take-out points being mindful of the polarity. After all the connections were completed and the instrument were ready for recording, shots were fired at an offset distance of 5 m, and at each geophone point with a stack of five shots for each. The generated seismogram was recorded for onward processing. The raw seismic data which was generated with a sampling interval of 250\u03bcs and number of samples of 4096 is shown in figure 4. The record length is 1 s, which is a multiplication of the sampling interval with number of sample. Figure 4. One of the raw seismic data generated during the survey. Data Processing The data processing started by importing the raw seismic data recorded in SEG2 format in the field into a dedicated software used for the processing. The next step on the processing flow was the inspection and editing of any wrong geometry mistakenly entered in the field. The Bandpass filter with \"low cut-off\" (\"high-pass\") of 5Hz and \"high cut-off\" (\"low-pass\") of 100Hz was applied to remove the effect of ground roll and improve the signal to noise ratio (S\/N). The gain filter was applied to enhance the weak refraction events. The arrival times were picked from the processed data (Fig. 5) and saved. The picked arrival times shots at the first and last twenty fourth geophone and at the midpoint were extracted (Table 1 and 2) and used to plot a conventional travel time curve (Fig. 6 and 7). The two conventional travel time plots (graphs) were used to identify point at which the refraction event became the first break in both the forward and reversed travel time plots. This was used to assign layers to the various travel time picks (Fig. 8). The inversion process was carried out on the picks times (Fig. 9), to generate the initial model for the first and second layers (Fig. 10). Ray-tracing (Fig. 11) which is necessary to determine the ray-path that can be used to model the velocity profile was carried out. After which the initial generated model was iteratively inverted to generate tomography model by incorporating static correction information directly into the inversion routine. Figure 5.

+{"text":"INTRODUCTIONAs famously stated by professional golf legend Jack Nicklaus, golf is 90% mental, a contributing factor to why sport psychology consultants are employed by the best golfers in the world, but also serves as a reminder that there is a need to explore all aspects of the psychology of golf. The field of sport psychology, focusing on training techniques to enhance mental skills and improve performance (Burton & Raedeke, 2008), has been widely accepted by the golf community (Barnicle et al., 2013; Cohn, Rotella, & Lloyd, 1990; Thomas & Fogarty, 1997). Sport psychology training programs have been shown effective in working with golfers on an individual basis (Thomas & Fogarty, 1997), with the effectiveness of individualized training yielding stronger results than group sport psychology training (Anderson, 2002). However, it is not possible to provide individualized programs to a population of roughly 27 million amateur golfers in the United States alone (Foundation, 2010). This study primarily examined two psychological constructs: sport enjoyment (Barnicle et al., 2012, 2013; Scanlan, 1984, 1992) and competitive cognitions (Burton & Raedeke, 2008) specifically comparing the psyches and expectations for a round of golf between recreational and elite amateurs golfers. An enhanced understanding of the mindset of amateur golfers can impact many environments, from which this study focuses on amateur golfers and those who utilize golf in a business and professional setting.INCREASING INCLUSION OF GOLF AS A BUSINESS LANDSCAPEGolf has become a growing venue for professional to conduct business (Barnes et al., 2014; Belden, 2002), however research is sparse on the role enjoyment and expectations (Barnicle et al., 2012; Stodel, 2004) have on one's performance during a round of business golf. Golf has long been known to be a great avenue to build relationships because a round can take several hours to complete, which can be attractive to business professionals searching for activities in which professional bonds can form over social recreation. For instance, the golf swing takes on average about 1.4 seconds, thus if a golfer scores 100, they have swung the club for approximately 140 seconds, or slightly more than 2 minutes. If the golfer is playing with three others, then only about 10 minutes are spent actually hitting the ball, leaving ample time to bond and learn about other players' backgrounds, families, and career histories as an average 18-hole round takes just over four hours to complete. When utilized effectively (Duke, 2010), a round of business golf can improve participants' chances by 15 percent of making a larger sale than if golf was not played. In addition, the chance of repeat business increases by 40 percent when golf is played with the customer than if not.Business professonals may feel that a solid golfing performance is necessary for professional success within business golf, however, ability and final score has little to do with a successful round of business golf (Barnes et al., 2014). Adequate preparation and a thorough understanding of proper decorum and rules are actually more essential than a participant's performance (Duke, 2009). Duke (2010) asserts that apart from competition, golf is a game of courtesy, respect, and consideration, with the rules of golf involving informal intricacies that can signal where a participant falls in the rating scale of the aforementioned qualities. Moreover, this behavior provides clues into how one will handle themselves in a business and personal manner. Previous studies (Anderson, 1996; Belden, 2002; Jeter, 2005) indicates that business golf, at its very minimum, builds stronger business relationships than any other form of physical activity.Executives underestimate the value of golf as a business tool, to the extent that it is often never considered. If played correctly, each round of business golf potentially produces another connection to a solid a business partner that may not have been made (Duke, 2010). \u2026","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":148043197,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2463842385","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"HCCI combustion is effective for improving thermal efficiency of a gas engine, but it has problems such as control of the ignition and combustion. To solve the problem, availabilities of dedicated EGR technique are considered to control its ignition and combustion. Dedicated EGR involves reforming fuel into H 2 or CO by running a single or more cylinder with rich mixture and supplying the exhaust gas directly into other cylinders. In this study, the effect of dedicated EGR on methane HCCI combustion was investigated by experiments. As a result, when equivalence ratio of rich SI combustion or EGR ratios increase, the ignition timing of HCCI advances and combustion becomes steep. The advanced ignition timing is caused by an increase of H 2 mole fraction in the intake gas.

+{"text":"Introduction Finding new markers to assess prognosis of melanoma without the necessity to perform a surgical interventions is an important goal in melanoma research. The current study aimed to assess the correlation of clinical course and prognosis of primary and metastatic melanoma with expression of VEGF family and their receptors. Methods A ngTMA block was made from the randomly selected paraffin tissue blocks of the patients with melanocytic nevi, primary and metastatic melanoma. Then sections cut from ngTMA-block were immunohistochemically stained with proper antibodies. Expression of these proteins was investigated using automated image analysis and compared among the study groups. Results We analyzed the tissue of 238 patients with following diagnoses: 101 (42.4%) with a diagnosis of nevus, 86 (36.1%) Malignant melanoma and 51 (21.4%) metastasis. Median follow-up time for the malignant lesions was 5.71 years. Among the tested antigen, VEGF-C (p = 0.016), VEGF-R2 (p<0.001) and VEGF-R3 (p = 0.002) were significantly higher expressed in the metastatic tissues. When these scores were assessed in multiple regression models, the only independent factor linked to patient's diagnosis was VEGF-R2 (p<0.001). In addition, groups of highly correlated variables (VEGF-C and VEGF-R3, VEGF-A and VEGF-R1) were found to form separate sub-clusters. On the other side, high values of VEGF-C were associated with both overall and disease-free survival with a statically significant HR of 2.76 (95% CI: 1.27, 5.98; p = 0.01) and 2.82 (95%CI: 1.62, 4.91; p<0.001), respectively. Conclusions This study shows that VEGF-C and VEGF-R2 might represent new prognostic marker in MM.

The commonly used method of determining the rate of dissolution of fertilizers by measuring the increase in dissolved Mg in soils under field conditions can lead to errors because part of the dissolved Mg would normally be lost from the site of application by plant uptake and leaching. A more accurate method of estimating the rate of dissolution is to determine the amount of undissolved Mg and subtract it from the amount of Mg applied. A simple sequential extraction method was developed to measure the undissolved Mg in soils treated with a range of fertilizers with different solubilities. The method consisted of two 30\u2010minute extractions of a soil sample with 0.5M BaCl2\u2010TEA, pH 8.2 to determine dissolved Mg in the sample followed by a 1\u2010hour extraction with 0.5M HCl to determine difficulty\u2010soluble or slow\u2010release Mg, and finally an 18\u2010hour extracti...","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":96340631,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2010605915","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1080\/00103629909370196","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Growth points (GPs), growth poles (GPs), small towns (STs) or growth centres (GCs) as they are variously named in literature are defined as centres with strong resource base that can initiate a cumulative causation process that culminate in continuous and sustainable development. This paper reviews the definition of the concept and provides a critique of the constraints to the development of growth centres. It is the premise of this theoretical paper that it is possible to reengineer the strategy with a view to achieve sustainable development at these growth poles. Despite its widespread application most of the growth poles have never been successful because of natural-soico-economic complex of factors that have not been adequately conceptualized by the responsible governments. INTRODUCTION AND THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK The analytical framework for this papers centres on four major aspects. Firstly, the introduction and the meaning of the growth centre as perceived from a simple linguistic perspective and as derived by regional planners and theorists of the quantitative approaches. The paper also to gives a more simplified and operational definition relevant to Zimbabwe. In the second and third sections the paper addresses the limitations of the growth centre strategy and the strategies adopted to propel growth respectively. The last component focuses on the possibility for reengineering the concept in the Zimbabwean context. The concept of reengineering in this paper implies modification of planning and implementation of the model based on synthesis of the positives of the traditional theoretical thinking on the development of growth points. It is the premise of this paper that established planning protocols are correct but have to be modified in an incrementalist fashion to capture the current dimensions in social planning. Thus, the use of the term reengineering assumes the existence of an array of practical and theoretical planning philosophy from which improvements can be made in the context of sustainable development. The term growth point (GP) means increasing in size both in number of facilities, building and services provided at an identified centre. Thus, once a centre has been established there should be an observable change in spatial structure and pattern. One would assume that the spatio-temporal expansion is development. It quickly reminds one of the links between growth and development. Whilst the word growth implies expansion development implies quantitative growth and the quality of growth introduced to the selected centres. Thus, these terms are commonly used interchangeably in rural planning.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":15110547,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2185891979","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Cwatsets were originally developed for statistical purposes, as a means of creating typical subsamples from sets that are not groups [1]. However, as the subject developed, it began to take on a much more algebraic flavor. Now, it is studied as much for its intrinsic value as an algebraic structure as for its statistical applications. Cwatsets have many parallels to group theory, and much of the study of the subject exploits group-theoretic results to yield more information about cwatsets. Interestingly enough, the subject has been developed almost exclusively by undergraduates, mostly students at Rose-Hulman and participants in programs at that school. Recently, relationships between cwatsets and graph theory have begun to arise. This paper is an introduction to the subject of cwatsets and explores some of these relationships with graph theory.

Certainly any genuine connection, substantive or formal, between Hornblower's book and that of M. L. W. Laistner which it notionally supersedes would be far to seek, and any comparison between them profitless to pursue. The synkrisis which suggests itself is, rather, with the other recent study of the same period (or almost: the difference is Alexander), John Davies' Democracy and Classical Greece. 1 Equally valuable in their demonstration that the classical era still makes as many intellectual demands upon its students as any other, the two books are fascinatingly contrasting in tone. Davies comes across as the deep thinker he is, transcribing on to many of his Fontana pages the blueprints of almost too many ideas for readers to 1 take in without commensurate, repeated reflection themselves. H. too has done f thinking aplenty, but presents its results in a more aggressively didactic manner: here is the enthusiastic Greats tutor, deploying punchy arguments and superabundant italics (both literal and figurative) to expose interpretative error and direct attention towards primary sources and key bibliography (much of the latter emanating from H. himself: material from Mausolus [Oxford, 1982] is re-cycled, appropriately if I sometimes over-densely see, e.g., pp. 71-2 while some theses are left for full exposition in CAH VP and elsewhere). Isolated instances apart the prominent (p. x) reappearance (cf. Mausolus p. 108 n. 5, p. 129 n. 188), for instance, of the lofty 'disappointing', a thoroughly unhelpful verdict upon other scholars' work without I specification of the writer's own expectations, to allow independent judgment of their reasonableness there is less here of the polemic which has been dismaying readers and reviewers of Mausolus.

+{"text":"The main objective of this paper is to investigate the effects of fiscal deficit on economic growth in Nigeria through the application of OLS techniques, Augmented Dickey-Fuller technique, Granger causality test and Johansen cointegration test. The results of unit root suggested that all the variables of the model are stationary at first difference. The results of Causality suggested that there is one-way causation between exchange rate and real GDP, between government fiscal deficit and real GDP, between domestic investment share of real GDP and real GDP. Causation runs from exchange rate to real GDP, real GDP to government fiscal deficit, real GDP to domestic investment share of real GDP. The result also shows no causation between some variables of the model especially, exchange rate and interest rate, government fiscal deficit and interest rate, domestic investment share of real GDP and interest rate, government fiscal deficit and exchange rate, and domestic investment share of real GDP and exchange rate. The Johansen cointegration result shows the absence of long run relationship between real GDP and the included variables of the model, especially government fiscal deficit. The results of OLS revealed that interest rate, exchange rate, government fiscal deficit possessed a positive impact on economic growth proxied by real GDP. The result also shows that government fiscal deficit does not significantly affect economic growth (Real GDP), but a good performance of an economy in terms of real GDP per capita growth may therefore be attributed to the interest rate, exchange rate, and domestic investment share of real GDP in the country. The overall finding of this paper shows that government fiscal deficit has no significant effect on real GDP, hence, the need for fiscal deficit in Nigeria is minimal. A major policy implication of this result is that concerted effort should be made by policy makers to instill financial discipline among political office holders. Government fiscal deficit should be control in order to achieve meaningful growth and development in the economy. Fiscal deficit should also be directed toward boasting productivity in the country, since it has positive impact on real GDP.

A non-intrusive home energy monitor needs to learn not only the energy patterns of individual appliances but also those of combinations of appliances. To relieve the burden of learning power patterns of the combinations, this paper proposes a parameter-building scheme based on the parameters of individual appliances. The proposed algorithm is evaluated on datasets prepared by the reference energy disaggregation dataset and the authors.

First, a period of nearly seventy years has passed since the end of the Second World War. The last wartime generation is dying out, and soon there will be no living witnesses to the twelve years of National Socialism that so definitively shaped the politics and culture of the two post-war Germanies, and of the socalled Berlin Republic that emerged post-unification. All future understanding of that period will be historically mediated, a product of what Jan Assmann has called a society's \"cultural memory.\" Moreover, that generation \u2013 born from the early 1920s to the mid-1930s, described by Dirk Moses as the 45ers and by Jens Hacke as the \"long generation\" (30) \u2013 will, self-evidently, no longer dominate German culture, politics, and society as it has for so many decades. Second, the profound changes set in motion by unification, and some changes that were already under way before 1990, are now finally coming to be fully realized, in both senses of the word. In the late 1990s, Normalitat was still a contested term, wrestled by Gerhard Schroder, newly minted as chancellor in 1998 after sixteen years of conservative dominance under Helmut Kohl (see Taberner and Cooke), from its previous almost exclusive association with rightwing, New Right, or even far-right nationalism (see Berger).

+{"text":"Geothermics as a discipline of Geophysics deals with the description of the thermal regime, its variation in time, and the associated processes. These processes can be quantified by their characteristic thermal signature observed in temperature records. Heat transfer in the Earth's crust occurs primarily by thermal diffusion. On the other hand, heat advection due to groundwater flow in general is a more efficient transport mechanism. Therefore, the subsurface temperature field can be a sensitive indicator of even small flow rates. The challenge is to isolate the desired thermal signature from interfering signatures. This is achieved by eliminating the thermal signatures of all other processes and factors from the temperature data which may be caused by heterogeneity of thermal rock properties, heat generation, and transient variations of the ground surface temperature. Otherwise, these signatures may be misinterpreted leading to false conclusions. This work focuses on quantifying groundwater flow (Darcy flow) and eliminating technical perturbations from temperature logs. Both main topics complement each other because the analysis of groundwater flow on temperature data will benefit from an improved database. In turn, the flow analysis provides useful information to constrain results from classic approaches, for instance interpretation of hydraulic data. The factors and processes which eventually disturb a flow analysis are introduced. The importance of disturbing effects depends on both magnitude and shape of the superposed thermal signatures. Subsurface Darcy flow can be identified by its characteristic thermal signature. Here, a simple geothermal technique is proposed for quantifying regional strata-bound flow based on a detailed analysis of borehole temperatures.

+{"text":"Simple Summary Mangostanaxanthone IV (MX-IV) is a major constituent in Garcinia mangostana. It induced neuro-protective effects in the ICV-STZ mouse model through diminishing ICV-STZ-induced oxidative stress, neuro-inflammation, and apoptosis which was reflected by a significant reduction in malondialdehyde (MDA), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), tumor necrosis factor-\u03b1 (TNF-\u03b1), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) brain contents contrary to increased glutathione (GSH) content. It also decreased amyloid plaques' number and phosphorylated tau expression via the PI3K\/Akt\/GSK-3\u03b2 pathway. Abstract Alzheimer's disease (AD), a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, is characterized by amyloid deposition and neurofibrillary tangles formation owing to tau protein hyperphosphorylation. Intra-cerebroventricular (ICV) administration of streptozotocin (STZ) has been widely used as a model of sporadic AD as it mimics many neuro-pathological changes witnessed in this form of AD. In the present study, mangostanaxanthone IV (MX-IV)-induced neuro-protective effects in the ICV-STZ mouse model were investigated. STZ (3 mg\/kg, ICV) was injected once, followed by either MX-IV (30 mg\/kg\/day, oral) or donepezil (2.5 mg\/kg\/day, oral) for 21 days. Treatment with MX-IV diminished ICV-STZ-induced oxidative stress, neuro-inflammation, and apoptosis which was reflected by a significant reduction in malondialdehyde (MDA), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), tumor necrosis factor-\u03b1 (TNF-\u03b1), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) brain contents contrary to increased glutathione (GSH) content. Moreover, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase content and cleaved caspase-3 activity were reduced together with a marked decrement in amyloid plaques number and phosphorylated tau expression via PI3K\/Akt\/GSK-3\u03b2 pathway modulation, leading to obvious enhancement in neuronal survival and cognition. Therefore, MX-IV is deemed as a prosperous nominee for AD management with obvious neuro-protective effects that were comparable to the standard drug donepezil.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":245026425,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3390\/biology10121298","PubMedCentral":"8698304","ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2079-7737\/10\/12\/1298\/pdf?version=1639113226","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Compared with the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) in individual particles, these collective modes have appealing advantages such as angle-dependent dispersions and much narrower linewidths. Here, we investigate systematically how the geometry of the lattice affects the SLRs supported by metallic nanoparticles. We present a general theoretical framework from which the various SLR modes of a given geometry can be straightforwardly obtained by a simple comparison of the diffractive order (DO) vectors and orientation of the nanoparticle dipole given by the polarization of the incident field. Our experimental measurements show that while square, hexagonal, rectangular, honeycomb and Lieb lattice arrays have similar spectra near the $\\Gamma$-point ($k=0$), they have remarkably different SLR dispersions. Furthermore, their dispersions are highly dependent on the polarization. Numerical simulations are performed to elucidate the field profiles of the different modes. Our findings extend the diversity of SLRs in plasmonic nanoparticle arrays, and the theoretical framework provides a simple model for interpreting the SLRs features, and vice versa, for designing the geometrical patterns.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":53343288,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2555607977","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1103\/PhysRevB.95.155423","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":"1611.04352"},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

This paper shows in a design how to improve the utilization of metalized polypropylene film capacitor (MPFC) specifications in multiple dimensions simultaneously: breakdown voltage rating, capacitance, ripple current capability and warranted reliability performance. As a result, the system size and cost can be reduced, while the overall energy capturing efficiency is guaranteed. Under low-capacitance conditions the DC-Link voltage varies within a fundamental cycle; a boost converter is placed between the PV panel and the DC-Link to provide MPPT (maximum power point tracking). The modulation index of the output inverter can be dynamically varied for waveform compensation. Comparison is made with electrolytic capacitors and it is found that when using an optimized capacitor selection strategy, it is possible to mitigate the increased size and cost implications of film capacitors.

+{"text":"Background: Long-term implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) adverse events are poorly documented. In the NCDR ICD Registry\u2122, a nationally representative cohort, we calculated the rate of long-term post-discharge device related adverse events. Methods: We included first-time ICD implants from 2006-2010 that could be matched with Medicare fee-for-service claims data to identify outcomes. We excluded patients if they had a previous ICD or pacemaker, CABG during their procedure, or were not discharged alive. The primary outcome was device reoperation (involving the generator, leads, pocket, or a combination) for device malfunction, infection, other complications (wound disruption, cardiac perforation, etc.), or reoperation for battery end-of-life and\/or device upgrade. Analysis was performed using unadjusted cumulative incidence functions taking into consideration the competing risk of death. Results: We identified 185,263 ICD implants of which 114,649 (19.7% single-chamber, 41.3% dual-chamber, 38.8% CRT-D) could be matched to Medicare data (mean age 74.8\u00b16.2 years, 72.5% male).Of these, 83.5% were for primary prevention of sudden cardiac death. The median follow up was 2.7 yrs (max follow-up 6 yrs). At least 1 reoperation occurred in 15.5% of patients by 6 yrs and more than 80% of these reoperations occurred after the early (>90 days) post-implantation period (Figure). Reoperation rates for specific complications (per 1000 patient yrs) were device malfunction (14.3), infection (5.1), other device related complications (18.4) and reoperation for generator battery end-of-life and\/or device upgrade (12.9). The crude reoperation rate (for any cause) was similar among device types (P=0.19).

It is established that in the Anglo-American system of law, the role of tort is defined as the adjustment of losses and their final distribution. The main tasks of tort law in this legal system are to assist the injured parties for the harm caused to others, the imposition of responsibility on the persons responsible for the harm, as well as to prevent others from committing malicious actions.

Using the fact that these methods approximate ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and differential algebraic equations (DAEs) by discrete event systems, it is shown how hybrid systems can be approximated by pure discrete event simulation models (within the DEVS formalism framework). In this way, the treatment and detection of events representing discontinuities---which constitute an important problem for classic ODE solvers---is notably simplified. It can be also seen that the main advantages of quantization-based methods (error control, reduction of computational costs, possibilities of parallelization, sparsity exploitation, etc.) are still verified in the presence of discontinuities.

In contrast to existing studies that involve greedy approximation algorithms with a 63% performance guarantee, our work focuses on solving the problem optimally. To this end, we introduce a new class of problems that we refer to as two-stage stochastic submodular optimization models. We propose a delayed constraint generation algorithm to find the optimal solution to this class of problems with a finite number of samples.

We show that the submodularity of the influence function can be exploited to develop strong optimality cuts that are more effective than the standard optimality cuts available in the literature.

Methods and Results\u2014 The role of mechanoelectric feedback was examined in transforming growth factor-&bgr;\u2013treated monolayers of cocultured myofibroblasts and neonatal rat ventricular cells by inhibiting myofibroblast contraction and blocking mechanosensitive channels. Untreated (control) and transforming growth factor-&bgr;\u2013treated (fibrotic) anisotropic monolayers were optically mapped for electrophysiological comparison. Longitudinal conduction velocity, transverse conduction velocity, and normalized action potential upstroke velocity (dV\/dtmax) significantly decreased in fibrotic monolayers (14.4\u00b10.7 cm\/s [mean\u00b1SEM], 4.1\u00b10.3 cm\/s [n=53], and 3.1\u00b10.2% per ms [n=14], respectively) compared with control monolayers (27.2\u00b10.8 cm\/s, 8.5\u00b10.4 cm\/s [n=40], and 4.9\u00b10.1% per ms [n=12], respectively).

+{"text":"Our paper presents some preliminary observation from a collaborative exploratory study linking mathematics, science and reading within a technology enhanced problem-based learning scenario conducted at one French Canadian Elementary and Middle School. Presented in a form of dialogue between teacher and researcher, our findings give some meaningful insight in how an innovative mathematics teaching can be developed and implemented using a real-world problem solving. Instead of a traditional presentation of material about lighting up homes, participating mathematics, science and French teachers were working collaboratively with the ICT integration mentor and two university professors helping students investigate a problem from various perspectives using a variety of cognitive and metacognitive strategies, discussing and sharing the finding with peers and presenting them to a larger audience using media tools. Our preliminary results may prompt further investigation of how innovation in teaching and learning can help students become better critical thinkers and scientifically empowered citizens. The project we are going to describe in this paper is a collaborative initiative of teachers, school leadership and researchers to explore innovative ways to teach students to become a real-life connected, problem-oriented and technology empowered learners of the 21st century. Following Lesh (2007), we ask what would be learning needed for successful citizen living in the world with the increasing use of mathematics, science and technology and how the traditional conceptions of reading, writing and arithmetic could be extended or reconceived to prepare students for such success. Aldous (2007) is mentioning six key ideas that characterize engaging pedagogies in mathematics and science education : equity, service to humanity, literacy, knowledge dimensions and their changing emphases, affective as well as cognitive responses to mathematics and science, and connections to technology. The author mentions the need to identify and explicate the strategies of investigating and explicating the creative processes involved in solving novel real world problems and pointing to a way in which the content\/ processes\/ context and affective connections intrinsic to mathematics and science learning and teaching can be found. Our paper describes some preliminary observations on how innovative teaching, collaboration between teachers and researchers, and use of technology can change the way mathematics is taught and learnt. While many researchers, practitioners, and government authorities call for the search of innovative approaches in teaching and learning, little is known of how innovation can be developed, implemented, and assessed in our classroom. At the macro-level, its origins may be referred to the vision of today's society as 'knowledge society' one, based on innovation and ingenuity. Hargreaves (2003, p.2) argues that we can (and should) 'promote a high-investment, high-capacity educational system in which highly skilled teachers are able to generate creativity and ingenuity among their students by experiencing creativity and flexibility themselves in how they are treated and developed as knowledge-based professionals'. In this way, it is the changing society that forces governments to put pressure on educational systems to look for new and more effective methods preparing young generation to deal with the complexity of the modern world. An analysis made of PISA data by Canadian New Brunswick's provincial government, showed in early 2000s that the educational system failed to adapt to new requirements, so the improvement is necessary (Freiman, Lirette-Pitre, 2007). Concrete steps have been taken since","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":54769285,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2517743407","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"The laser performance of rare earth doped crystals and glasses can be significantly improved by codoping with an addiontal ion which absorbs the pump light and efficiently transfers the energy to the lasing rare earth ion. Such methods have been used in chromium-neodymium doped gadolinium scandium gallium garnets, glasses and glass ceramics, and manganese-thulium doped lead zinc gallium fluoride glasses. Energy transfer between donors and acceptors in such materials has been traditionally modeled by the Foerster-Dexter equation. However, it has been found recently that an anomalous energy transfer can occur at very short times inconsistent with the above model. We propose that such transfer can occur due to two additional causes: 1 . the physical pairing of donors and acceptors in the materials and 2. additional short-range interactions which noticeably increase the transfer rate between donors and acceptors. Models for both these cases are presented and compared with experimental results.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":96959438,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2049116398","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1117\/12.49062","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"There is a complex relationship between HIV infection and psychiatric disorders. Being HIV infected could result in psychiatric disorders as a result of psychological consequence or because of the effect of the virus on the brain. Patients with severe mental illness are thought to be at increased risk of acquiring HIV infection. This could be attributed to several characteristics of certain subgroups of psychiatric patients, including having a substance- related disorder (particularly intravenous drug use), being single or divorced, practicing risky sexual behavior, and having reduced awareness about the modes of transmission of infectious diseases and of relevant protective measures. Aim of the study is to see the prevalence of HIV infection among psychiatric patients and to evaluate the risk factors of acquiring infection. This study retrospectively assessed the seroprevalence of HIV infection among psychiatric patients who were referred for laboratory testing over a period extending from September 2011 to August 2015. A total of 2477 patients were referred for laboratory testing, out of which 06 (0.24%) were found to be seropositive. Out of the 06 cases 04 (66.67%) were found to be having substance- related disorder. 04 patients were diagnosed to be having Schizophrenia and one patient with Unspecified nonorganic psychosis. Risk reduction methods used elsewhere may not be effective among these patients. Severe psychiatric and cognitive impairments affect their ability to adopt new behaviors; extreme social deprivations constrain their options for sex and influence patterns of drug use; and sensitive outreach is required to ensure their participation in any formal program. Though the prevalence of HIV is low among psychiatric patients, still new intervention strategies in this section of the population is needed.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":226633557,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3082862602","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Three of the most significant problems in paediatric regional anaesthesia are: (i) only a partially effective block; (ii) the limited duration of analgesia associated with a single injection block; and (iii) the unwanted motor blockade that might accompany the concentration of local anaesthetic that is necessary in order to achieve adequate analgesia. To circumvent these three problems, various additives are used in order to improve the characteristics of the nerve block. The first more universally used drug in this respect was epinephrine (1) which, through reduced systemic uptake of the local anaesthetic and also through its alpha-2 adrenergic stimulating properties, enhances the duration and quality of both peripheral and neuraxial blockade. Epinephrine is still used as an adjunctive agent for continuous epidural infusions in certain centres (2). During the early part of the 1980s, neuraxial administration of morphine was shown to result in excellent and long-lasting analgesia in various adult settings (3). This new therapeutic approach was soon also tested in children. The potential of this novel analgesic regimen was probably best illustrated by Rosen and Rosen (4), who reported excellent analgesia of long duration following caudal administration of morphine in paediatric cardiac cases involving sternal split. The dose\u2013response of epidural morphine was also delineated by Krane et al. (5) around the same time. They showed that bolus doses in excess of approximately 30 lg\u00c6kg did not improve analgesia to any major extent but did increase the risk of unwanted side-effects. However, even at 30 lg\u00c6kg, the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and pruritus was approximately 40%. Since these early days of neuraxial administration of opioids in children, the practice of using a mixture of local anaesthetic and opioids, most frequently fentanyl, has become wide-spread. However, it is interesting to note that some paediatric centres have not jumped onto this opioid bandwagon (e.g. Stockholm, Turin and Birmingham). So, what are the reasons for not being a neuraxial opioid proponent? First, the risk of respiratory depression must be considered. Although this risk might vary to some extent between different opioids, this risk is still a concern regardless of which opioid is administered. Thus, neuraxial administration of opioids requires specific routines and protocols for their safe use on the regular ward. Most paediatric centres have already solved this problem since such precautions are also necessary for safe administration of morphine, either by patient controlled analgesia (PCA) or as continuous infusions, but the standard of care might be quite different in centres that do not treat children on such a regular basis. Contrary to the administration of PCA or continuous infusion of morphine, where other alternatives might be few or nonexistent, one can question why the patient should be exposed even to a minute risk of lifethreatening respiratory depression from the administration of neuraxial opioids when there are other much less dangerous options to enhance the quality of the regional nerve block (see below). Second, as is clearly illustrated by the study in this issue of Paediatric Anaesthesia by Khan et al. (6), neuraxial administration of opioids is associated with a number of side-effects that are quite distressing for both the patient and the hospital staff. In this study, the investigation had to be stopped Paediatric Anaesthesia 2002 12: 747\u2013749","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":45920711,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2088058808","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1046\/j.1460-9592.2002.00953.x","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Variational implicit solvation models (VISM), because of their relatively low computational cost and satisfactory accuracy, have been widely used in the solvation analysis of biological systems at molecular level. Central in the construction of VISM is an interface separating the solute and the solvent. Compared with sharp-interface models, diffuse-interface VISMs have shown some initial success in improving the efficiency and accuracy of the solvation energy estimation of biomolecules. However, on a theoretical level, several questions concerning the diffuse-interface VISMs remain open: (1) What is the physical meaning of a diffuse interface? (2) What energy does a diffuse-interface VISM predict? This work aims at addressing the above questions. Our research reveals the relationship between a diffuse interface definition and the random movement of the solute-solvent interface due to thermal fluctuations. Then, we use this diffuse interface setting to construct a VISM that is capable of capturing ensemble average solvation energy, which is an experimentally observable quantity in solvation processes. The well-posedness and variational analysis of the model are further investigated. Our work is the first step towards estimating ensemble average solvation energy by using diffuse-interface VISMs.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":256080377,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":"2301.08560"},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Loneliness is the subjective sense of dissatisfaction that arises from a perceived disconnect between an individual's relational wants and their relational reality or needs (Cacioppo et al., 2015). The related construct of \"belonging\", especially in its social dimensions, is also concerned with the individual's relationships with others. A desire for belonging is a yearning for connection and a need for interpersonal relationships (Allen, 2020a; Baumeister & Leary, 1995). It has been suggested that loneliness can coincide with a lack of belonging (O'Loughlin, 2020). Loneliness and belonging can also co-exist, as in the case of a dual-continuum proposed by Lim et al. (2021). As social beings, people are motivated to build, and maintain positive and supportive interpersonal relationships (Allen & Kern, 2017, 2019). Each person strives to form relationships of sufficient number and depth to meet their social affiliation or belonging needs. Indeed, human being's survival and success is grounded in social bonds and mutual supportive relationships (Murthy, 2018). Loneliness is experienced when there is a substantial gap between individual's relationship needs and their perceived affiliation needs (Lim et al., 2016). Adding belonging implies that loneliness has a component that is more than the sum of individual relationships. It extends loneliness consideration to include identification with and perceived membership in social entities, such as family, schools, churches, neighbourhoods, and even national identity. It is possible for a person to live alone and not be lonely, and to live with others and be lonely (Lim et al., 2021). This observation emphasises that research and prevention\/intervention strategies need to consider loneliness as a self-construal. Conjoining loneliness and belonging point to the need to be aware of how loneliness is experienced and its meaning, as articulated by Bushey (2020) based on her experience during the Covid19 pandemic, \"I am lonely as the body is hungry three times a day, hollowed again and again by an ache that does not ease except with the sustenance of connection. The feeling differs from the peace of solitude, which many enjoy, including me at times. Instead, it is a gnawing sadness\" (para 7). As countries recognise loneliness as a pressing social problem, it is crucial to prioritise individual psychological prevention\/intervention efforts. At the same time, there may be value in considering socioecological strategies that foster positive macro institutions (Allen et al., 2016, 2018). This need was apparent in the ongoing California Student Wellness Longitudinal Study (Furlong et al., 2020). Middle and high school students completed the Mental Health Continuum-Short Form (Keyes, 2006) in October 2019 and 2020. Students were asked, \"During the past month, how often did you feel that society was a good place, or is becoming a better place for all people\". In 2019, about one-third of the students indicated each of three response options: (a) \"never\/1-2 time\", (b) \"once a week\/2-3 times a week\", and (c) \"almost every other day\/every day.\" In 2020, after six months of athome distance learning because of Covid-19 restrictions, student's perceptions of macro social institutions deteriorated substantially. Almost 60% of the same students indicated that they never or 1-2 times had a positive impression of general society. As belonging is interconnected with individuals' experience of loneliness, they need access to genuine, positive social institutions (Snyder et al., 2016). The stories of the two constructs, belonging and loneliness, as they appear in the literature share many compelling likenesses, with similar drivers and outcomes (see Lim et al., 2021). Indeed, these connections are so close that it seems imperative that the two terms be removed from their siloes and integrated into research and practice. With loneliness rates estimated to increase by 49% over the next 10 years (Age UK, 2018), advances in belonging research have the potential to help address this burgeoning worldwide epidemic (Allen, 2020b). This special issue, Belonging and Loneliness, showcases these constructs as they appear side-by-side in the scholarship and highlights how examining each alongside the other may create valuable new knowledge that can be deployed to resolve issues related to loneliness and belonging in the community. Possibly, as a result of the widely discussed prevalence of loneliness in our global communities, there frequently is a disparity between representations of loneliness and belonging in the public sphere. Loneliness, the more familiar concept, attracts far more media attention, and certainly, more Google hits (https:\/\/trends.google.com\/ trends\/explore?q=lonely,belonging), than belonging.

+{"text":"BACKGROUND AND AIMS\nNitrogen fixation in legumes requires tight control of carbon and nitrogen balance. Thus, legumes control nodule numbers via an autoregulation mechanism. 'Autoregulation of nodulation' mutants super-nodulate and are thought to be carbon-limited due to the high carbon-sink strength of excessive nodules. This study aimed to examine the effect of increasing carbon supply on the performance of super-nodulation mutants.\n\n\nMETHODS\nWe compared the responses of Medicago truncatula super-nodulation mutants (sunn-4 and rdn1-1) and wild type to five CO2 levels (300-850 \u03bcmol mol -1). Nodule formation and N2 fixation were assessed in soil-grown plants at 18 and 42 days after sowing.\n\n\nKEY RESULTS\nShoot and root biomass, nodule number and biomass, nitrogenase activity and fixed-N per plant of all genotypes increased with increasing CO2 concentration and reached the maximum around 700 \u03bcmol mol -1. While the sunn-4 mutant showed strong growth-retardation compared to wild-type plants, elevated CO2 increased shoot biomass and total N content of rdn1-1 mutant up to two-fold. This was accompanied by a four-fold increase in nitrogen fixation capacity in the rdn1-1 mutant.\n\n\nCONCLUSIONS\nThese results suggest that the super-nodulation phenotype per se did not limit growth. The additional nitrogen fixation capacity of the rdn1-1 mutant may enhance the benefit of elevated CO2 on plant growth and N2 fixation.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":236198700,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1093\/aob\/mcab098","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1093\/aob\/mcab098","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The aim of the present study was to describe the dietary patterns of 3-year-old children using principal component analysis (PCA). Data were collected from children in the Southampton Women's Survey (SWS). The SWS is a large prospective study in which a total of 12 583 non-pregnant women aged 20\u201334 years and resident in the city of Southampton, UK were recruited between 1998 and 2002. Babies born to women in the SWS are followed up at 6 months, 12 months, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8 years of age (1) . At age 3 years the children were visited at home where their diet, eating behaviour, physical activity and illnesses were assessed. Diet was assessed using an eighty-item FFQ, administered by trained research nurses, to record the average frequency and quantity of the foods consumed by the child over the preceding 3 months. Between 1998 and 2003, 1981 singleton babies were born to the women in the SWS. Complete dietary data were available for 1640 (83%) of these children at 3 years of age.

To minimize drug degradation and loss, to prevent harmful side effects and to increase drug bioavailability various drug delivery and targeting systems are currently under development. Handling the treatment of severe disease conditions has necessitated the development of innovative ideas to modify drug delivery techniques.

Chitosan is a biocompatible, biodegradable, and nontoxic natural polymer with excellent film-forming ability. Being of cationic character, chitosan is able to react with polyamines giving rise to polyelectrolyte complexes.

Networked multimedia computers enhance instruction by facilitating the distribution of text, graphics, sound and video images, providing communication links, and allowing continuous monitoring of student work. The distribution of video images is important in computer science courses. The ability to present visualizations of programming concepts and actual procedures on each computer screen is an effective pedagogical tool. Computer procedures and program outputs are for the most part visual phenomena. Students learn much more rapidly when they do not have to continually translate a verbal description into a picture of what appears on the computer screen. Networked computer laboratories are usually configured as a digital network of an instructor's workstation and students' personal computers. A large monitor attached to the teacher's workstation or an LCD panel on a overhead projector serves for demonstration purposes. In these laboratories, the instructor usually presents material at the front of the room and then rotates among the students answering individual questions. This setup is not particularly conducive to maintaining students' attention nor does it lend itself easily to collaborative activities. Superimposing an analog video network such as COMWEBI, Tech Commander' or V-Nee over the digital network improves upon the above configuration in several ways. Realtime, full motion video information is distributed to each individual computer screen. The source of the video information can be the teacher's computer, a student's computer or an auxiliary device.

The results suggest that the seemingly simple random vibration during sliding is actually generated by mechanisms on different scales that leave their footprint in a complex multi-scale vibration signal.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":54863230,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Selkurt (3) has shown that the extraction ratio of PAH decreases to 18 !% of the control following renal ischemia of 20 minutes duration in dogs. Gradual recovery of tubular function ensues if renal ischemia does not persist beyond a certain period. The in situ methods used heretofore for the determination of tubular damage following ischemia do not distinguish between a decrease in active tubular transport of PAH and an increase in permeability of the tubules to PAH thus allowing PAH to diffuse back to the plasma. Iti an attempt to study only one of these factors at a time, the in vitro method of Cross and Taggart (4) for mammalian kidney slices has been used. The assumption has been made by many investigators that this technique is a measure of active renal tubular transport. One of its advantages is that the results are not dependent on an intact blood supply. According to Selkurt, renal ischemia impaired the excretory ability of the tubules.

+{"text":"Accurate streamflow simulation is crucial for many applications, such as optimal reservoir operation and irrigation. Conceptual techniques employ physical ideas and are suitable for representing the physics of the hydrologic model, but they might fail in competition with their more advanced counterparts. In contrast, deep learning (DL) approaches provide a great computational capability for streamflow simulation, but they rely on data characteristics and the physics of the issue cannot be fully understood. To overcome these limitations, the current study provided a novel framework based on a combination of conceptual and DL techniques for enhancing the accuracy of streamflow simulation in a snow-covered basin. In this regard, the current study simulated daily streamflow in the Kalix\u00e4lven river basin in northern Sweden by integrating a snow-based conceptual hydrological model (MISD) with a DL model. Daily precipitation, air temperature (average, minimum, and maximum), dew point temperature, evapotranspiration, relative humidity, sunshine duration, global solar radiation, and atmospheric pressure data were used as inputs for the DL model to examine the effect of each meteorological variable on the streamflow simulation. Results proved that adding meteorological variables to the conceptual hydrological model underframe of parallel settings can improve the accuracy of streamflow simulating by the DL model. The MISD model simulated streamflow had an MAE = 8.33 (cms), r = 0.88, and NSE = 0.77 for the validation phase. The proposed deep-conceptual learning-based framework also performed better than the standalone MISD model; the DL method had an MAE = 7.89 (cms), r = 0.90, and NSE = 0.80 for the validation phase when meteorological variables and MISD results were combined as inputs for the DL model.

+{"text":"Cancer is potentially preventable disease. A surprising variety of intracellular pathways can be a target for chemoprevention. Earlier it was discovered that cAMP\u2010mediated system can play important role in prevention of DMBA\u2010mammary carcinogenesis. There are two types of cAMP\u2010dependent protein kinases (PKA), type I (PKA\u2010I) and type II (PKA\u2010II), which share a common catalytic (C) subunits, but contain distinct regulatory (R) ones, RI versus RII, respectively. Evidence suggests that increased expression of PKA\u2010I and its regulatory subunit (RI\u03b1) correlates with tumorogenesis and tumor growth. It was found that downregulation of RI\u03b1 by 21\u2010mer antisense oligonucleotide led to growth arrest of cancer cells. The effect of RI\u03b1 antisense oligonucleotide correlated with a decrease in RI\u03b1 protein and a concomitant increase in RII\u03b2 protein level. It was shown that antisense RI\u03b1 can protect in a sequence\u2010specific manner from 7,12\u2010dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA)\u2010induced mammary carcinogenesis. At 90 days after DMBA intubation, RI\u03b1\u2010antisense\u2010treated rats exhibited significantly lower number of tumors per rat, than untreated control animals. The antisense also delayed the first tumor appearance. An increase in RI\u03b1 and PKA\u2010I levels in the mammary gland and liver preceded tumor production, and antisense downregulation of RI\u03b1 restored normal levels of PKA\u2010I and PKA\u2010II in these tissues. Antisense RI\u03b1 in the liver induced the phase II enzymes, glutathione S\u2010transferase and quinone oxidoreductase, c\u2010fos protein, and activator protein\u20101 (AP\u20101)\u2010 and cAMP response element (CRE)\u2010directed transcription. In the mammary gland, antisense RI\u03b1 promoted DNA repair processes. In contrast, the CRE transcription\u2010factor decoy could not mimic these effects of antisense RI\u03b1. The results demonstrate that RI\u03b1 antisense produces dual anticarcinogenic effects: (a) increasing DMBA detoxification in the liver by increasing phase II enzyme activities, increasing CRE\u2010binding\u2010protein phosphorylation and enhancing CRE\u2010 and AP\u20101 directed transcription; and (b) activating DNA repair processes in the mammary gland by downregulating of PKA\u20101.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":30939619,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2020962688","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1196\/annals.1359.038","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Database Management Systems (DBMS) have be-come an essential tool for industry and research and are often a significant component of data centers. There have been many efforts to accelerate DBMS application performance. One of the most explored techniques is the use of vector processing. Unfortunately, conventional vector architectures have not been able to exploit the full potential of DBMS acceleration.In this paper, we present VAQUERO, our Scratchpad-based Vector Accelerator for QUEry pROcessing. VAQUERO improves the efficiency of vector architectures for DBMS operations such as data aggregation and hash joins featuring lookup tables. Lookup tables are significant contributors to the performance bottlenecks in DBMS processing suffering from insufficient ISA support in the form of scatter-gather instructions. VAQUERO introduces a novel Advanced Scratchpad Memory specifically designed with two mapping modes \u2014 direct- and associative-mode. These map-ping modes enable VAQUERO to accelerate real-world databases with workload sizes that significantly exceed the scratchpad memory capacity. Additionally, the associative-mode allows to use VAQUERO with DBMS operators that use hashed keys, e.g. hash-join and hash-aggregate. VAQUERO has been designed considering general DBMS algorithm requirements instead of being based on a particular database organization. For this reason, VAQUERO is capable to accelerate DBMS operators for both row- and column-oriented databases.In this paper, we evaluate the efficiency of VAQUERO using two highly optimized popular open-source DBMS, namely the row-based PostgreSQL and column-based MonetDB. We imple-mented VAQUERO at the RTL level and prototype it, by performing Place&Route, at the 7nm technology node. VAQUERO incurs a modest 0.15% area overhead compared with an Intel Ice Lake processor.

Erbium doping reduces the photoluminescence intensity in solid solutions. After irradiation D \uf067 = 300-1000Gy, the photoluminescence intensity increases. An increase in the photoluminescence intensity in irradiated solid solutions is explained by a decrease in the concentration of centers responsible for the fast recombination channel and associated with lattice defects. At T=77K, due to the decay of bound Frenkel pairs, Si and Vs appear in the sulfur sublattice. The Si defects are responsible for the increase in the intensity of the green luminescence band. The redistribution of photoluminescence intensity in the range of 0.520 - 0.600 \u00b5m is due to the transfer energy to rare-earth centers in activated crystals.

+{"text":"In 1990, different root pruning treatments in conjunction with shoot pruning and the application of nitrogen and organic materials were carried out on 18-year-old tea plants (Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze). The pruning treatments consisted of 1) light pruning every late August and application of organic materials (conventional), 2) heavy root pruning and application of heavy nitrogen and organic materials only in late September of 1990 (late September I), 3) heavy root pruning plus shoot pruning only in late August of 1990(late August II), 4) heavy root pruning plus shoot pruning and application of heavy nitrogen and organic materials only in late September of 1990 (late September II), and 5) no pruning (control). The influences of the root pruning treatments on shoot growth and yield in the following summer tea season (second and third crops) were studied from 1991 to 1994. For f he control plot, shoot numbers per unit plucking surface area and 100-new-shoot weights in the second and third crop seasons showed no remarkable annual changes, and yields in both crop seasons were almost steady over four years. For the late August I treatment, yields in both crop seasons were steady and maintained the same level as the control over four years. For the late September I treatment, the yield of the second crop turned increased after the second year through an increase in shoot number without a decrease in shoot weight, although there was a reduction of about 10% in the first year. The late August II and late September II treatments failed to give better yields for the second and third crops as compared to the control throughout the four years. The influences of root pruning on shoot growth and yield of summer crop seemed to diminish after the first crop. Some treatments, however, affected yields in the second crop season and even in the third crop season. The results prove that root pruning is effective to improve productivity of summer crop season and that treatment under favorable conditions is indispensable.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":87405520,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2325508998","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1626\/JCS.66.381","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Background High sucrose intake causes marked derangements in liver metabolism, characterised by increased lipogenesis, elevated triglyceride accumulation and hepatic insulin resistance. To date little is known of the molecular mechanisms governing these alterations in lipid homeostasis. Objectives This study aimed to investigate the alterations in the expression of the peroxisome proliferator activated receptor (PPAR) family of transcription factors and key genes necessary for lipid oxidation and synthesis. Design Sprague Dawley rats were ad-libitum fed a high sucrose (30%) (n=8) or high starch diet (n=8) for 4 weeks after which the mRNA level of PPAR\u03b1, PPAR\u03b4, peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma co-activator beta (PGC1beta) and genes important in lipid oxidation and synthesis was measured in the liver. Outcomes Sucrose feeding markedly lowered the gene expression of PPAR\u03b1 (50% lower). However, the gene expression of PPAR\u03b4 and PGC-1beta remained unaltered by sucrose feeding. Analysis of genes important in lipid synthesis (lipogenesis) revealed that malonyl-CoA decarboxylase (MCD) was increased 1.5 fold by sucrose feeding. Conclusion These results support previous findings that lipogenic activity is increased by sucrose feeding, however these alterations are not due to increased PPAR\u03b1 gene expression. Further work is necessary to characterise the sucrosedependent transcriptional control of MCD and the impact of sucrose on genes necessary for the oxidation of lipids.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":58988393,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"196565879","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

At the collective level, it may trigger in-group versus out-group dynamics that provide a fictitious identity and either reinforce the status quo or suddenly subvert it.

+{"text":"A thorough understanding of the concepts of energy terms, levels, and microstates is paramount for students engaging in the study of quantum mechanics, spectroscopy, and the crystal or ligand field theories of bonding in transition metal complexes. In teaching courses of physical or inorganic chemistry to our undergraduate students we have found that few texts present a scheme that may he used to derive the appropriate energy level diagram for configurations more complex than the p= case. Most of the available texts recommend forming all possible arrangements of electrons in the available orbitals and discarding those which violate either the Pauli principle or are identical with one another by the indistinguishability of electrons. The prohlem of equivalent or nonequivalent electrons only adds to the confusion. The case illustrated is most often pz hut we believe that this is one of the few multielectron cases that can be handled by the above technique without extreme confusion and tedium. The purpose of this article is to illustrate and comment on several other procedures that are available and may be used for the more complex electron configurations. Of the techniques described in current texts the method advocated by Douglas and McDaniel ( I ) leads to a maximum of understanding and a minimum of frustration. Surprisingly, this method has not appeared in any of the more recent inorganic ( 2 4 ) or physical texts. When this method has been thoroughly explained, our students have been capable of generating the correct energy levels for electron configurations as complex as d4, d5, P, p and mixed configurations such as dzsl and dip. The application of this method is described under the heading Method I. It should be noted that while the original ideas for this method were presented by Douglas and McDaniel ( I ) , the treatment offered here is fuller and in more detail. Another procedure illustrated hy E. R. Tuttle (5) for obtainilig terms for configurations involving equivalent electrons is about as convenient as that of Douglas and McDaniel's hut its weakness lies in the fact that a set of rules (the origin of these rules is not immediately obvious to the beginning student) must be adopted and a process of repetitively applying these rules leads to the proper terms for the configuration of interest. A detailed description of this treatment may be obtained by writing this author. A third technique involving generating functions derived via group theory has been developed by Curl and Kilpatrick (6). The main disadvantage lies in an excess of algebraic manipulations. Without a knowledge of group theory the origin of the generating functions and their relation to the prohlem at hand cannot be demonstrated. To obtain the proper term symbols from a given configuration, group theory is not required. A fuller treatment of this procedure may also be obtained from this author. As Phillips and Williams (7) point out, additional confusion exists over what is meant by the use of the words term, state, level, and microstate. We advocate the use of the terminology given in Table 1, when the Russell-Saunders coupling scheme is applicable. In order to alleviate a confusing situation, it is strongly recommended that this terminology he adopted by all who use these descriptions.

+{"text":"Forests affect local climate through biophysical processes in terrestrial ecosystems. Due to the spatial and temporal heterogeneity of ecosystems in Europe, climate responses to forests vary considerably with diverse geographic and seasonal patterns. Few studies have used an empirical analysis to examine the effect of forests on temperature and the role of the background climate in Europe. In this study, we aimed to quantitatively determine the effects of forest on temperature in different seasons with MODIS (MODerate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) land surface temperature (LST) data and in situ air temperature measurements. First, we compared the differences in LSTs between forests and nearby open land. Then, we paired 48 flux sites with nearby weather stations to quantify the effects of forests on surface air temperature. Finally, we explored the role of background temperatures on the above forests effects. The results showed that (1) forest in Europe generally increased LST and air temperature in northeastern Europe and decreased LST and air temperature in other areas; (2) the daytime cooling effect was dominate and produced a net cooling effect from forests in the warm season. In the cold season, daytime and nighttime warming effects drove the net effect of forests; (3) the effects of forests on temperatures were mainly negatively correlated with the background temperatures in Europe. Under extreme climate conditions, the cooling effect of forests will be stronger during heatwaves or weaker during cold spring seasons; (4) the background temperature affects the spatiotemporal distribution of differences in albedo and evapotranspiration (forest minus open land), which determines the spatial, seasonal and interannual effects of forests on temperature. The extrapolation of the results could contribute not only to model validation and development but also to appropriate land use policies for future decades under the background of global warming.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":19101460,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2795242773","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3390\/rs10040529","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2072-4292\/10\/4\/529\/pdf?version=1525345852","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Patrick Professor, School of Education Indiana University, Bloomington November 16, 2000 During the 1960's and 1970's, research about the political socialization of children and adolescents was trendy among political scientists and civic educators, who used it to inform decisions about curriculum development and instruction in schools. As a young man, I was part of this trend initially as a graduate student and later as a new member of the Indiana University faculty. For example, in 1967 the National Council for the Social Studies published my first monograph, Political Socialization of American Youth: Implications for Secondary School Social Studies. My 1967 monograph was a review of the research literature on political socialization. The main point of my work was expressed in this paragraph from Chapter One of the monograph. The development of good citizenship (variously interpreted) remains the most frequently cited basic objective of civics and government teaching. Political socialization research can contribute to the achievement of this objective by helping to identify the norms that define good citizenship in American culture, the means for transmitting these norms, the relative effectiveness of these means, and the extent to which actual behavior conforms to stated values. Thus, the study of political socialization can contribute to the improvement of secondary school civics and government instruction by enriching our knowledge of what American youth believe about politics, of the extent to which these beliefs correspond to American political norms, of the contributions of formal political education to political socialization, and of the possible strategies for the","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":150656581,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"136105485","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

As technology use becomes pervasive in society, it brings many advantages for everyday social relations, but these benefits come in tandem with some disadvantages and unintended consequences. One such consequence is the tendency for people to be distracted due to technology use while driving. The focus of this study was to explore the prevalence of texting, making phone calls, and other technology use, such as adjusting or tuning dashboard music players or radios, while driving. Through a survey of drivers, roadside ethnographic observations of drivers, and interviews with traffic officers in Polokwane, Limpopo, South Africa,, the study broadly examined the social and cultural impact of technology and mobility with specific focus on technology use and distracted driving. The findings revealed a prevalence for texting and driving: 60 per cent of the participants reported that they have sent a text while driving; and 88 per cent acknowledged that they have seen drivers texting while driving. The study is significant considering the limited research on this social issue in South Africa, and it is also relevant considering that technology use and distraction portends the potential for causing road accidents.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":149171657,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2789869551","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1080\/02500167.2017.1329221","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Purpose - An agent-based market simulation is utilized to examine the impact of high frequency trading (HFT) on various aspects of the stock market. The simulation provides a baseline understanding of the effect of HFT on markets by using a paradigm of zero-intelligence traders and examining the resulting structural changes. Design\/methodology\/approach - A continuous double auction setting with zero-intelligence traders is employed by adapting the model of Gode and Sunder (1993) to include algorithmic high frequency (HF) traders who retrade by marking up their shares by a fixed percentage. The simulation examines the effects of two independent factors, the number of HF traders and their markup percent, on several dependent variables, principally volume, market efficiency, trader surplus, and volatility. Results of the simulations are tested with two-way ANOVA and Tukey's post hoc tests. Findings - In the simulation results, trading volume, efficiency, and total surplus vary directly with the number of traders employing HFT. Results also reveal that market volatility increased with the number of high frequency traders. Research limitations\/implications - Increases in volume, efficiency, and total surplus represent market improvements due to the trading activities of HF traders. However, the increase in volatility is worrisome, and some of the surplus increase appears to come at the expense of long-term oriented investors. However, the relatively recent development of HFT and dearth of appropriate data make direct calibration of any model difficult.

+{"text":"The article considers the word duboglot, which functions in the Russian dialects (mainly South Russian) in the meanings of 'strong dry cough, usually accompanied by a sore throat,' 'angina.' Semantic and motivational reconstruction of this word is carried out based on its role in the text. The authors conclude that the word got into the dialect system from the folklore (mainly from the charms), where it refers to diseases related to inflammation of the oral cavity, pharynx and lower respiratory tract, and accompanied by a strong cough, pain. It is established that most often the word appeared in the texts as a part of the formula \"X (a tree), take your Y (duboglot), otherwise I will eat you \/ swallow you,\" which is initially addressed to an oak tree as a convenient \"recipient\" of diseases that are expelled from the speaker's space. The authors suggest that the word duboglot is \"induced\" by the logic of unfolding the text: this is \"the oak glot\" (glot is the ability to swallow \u2013 from the Russian verb glotat' 'to swallow'), which should belong to an oak, not a sick person. The word creation within the framework of a spoken construction is supported by the capabilities that are inherent in the language system. Firstly, it is the image of an oak \"mouth\" (throat), which is formed on the basis of the natural properties and features of oak. This image could be fixed in the internal form of the word itself, which is a controversial issue, but it certainly is seen in the stable compatibility of dub 'oak' \u2194 duplo 'hollow', and at the synchronous level is also supported by the phonetic proximity of these words. The image of a tree, secondly, has another facet: the image of roots of a tree and its crown is projected on the idea of the growth of a tumour (including one in the throat); roots and crown of a tree simultaneously seem to be a \"tool\" for clearing the throat. Yet another facet of the image is related to how the native speaker sees the properties of a bark: there is a productive model for the Russian language that fixates the connection between the designations of wood (oak) bark and tumours on the human body (including throat tumours); oak bark itself is generally an \"archetype\" of a bark, hard, rough, stripped from the surface of a tree (which corresponds to \"tearing\" sensations with a sore throat).","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":243321909,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.31168\/2305-6754.2020.9.2.14","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYND","url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.31168\/2305-6754.2020.9.2.14","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate & compare the remineralization potential of two remineralizing agents on artificially induced enamel carious lesions via pH cycling. This assessment has been conducted via Surface microhardness analysis and energy dispersive X-ray(EDX) analysis. Materials and Methods: In this in vitro study, 20 human teeth were sectioned mesio-distally to obtain 40 enamel samples where artificial carious lesions were induced using an acidic buffer solution. Then samples were randomly divided into two groups (n=20) according to the material used. The first group was for Casein phosphopeptide\u2013amorphous calcium phosphate(CPP-ACP) &the second was for Nano-hydroxyapatite paste(nHAP). Each group was further subdivided into two subgroups(n=10) according to whether subjected to pH cycling or not. The surface microhardness was measured for enamel by Vickers hardness tester at baseline, demineralization and after the application of remineralizing agents in a 15days pH-cycling model and without it. Similarly, the mineral content of the samples was estimated by EDX analysis. The data were analyzed using independent t-test, ANOVA test and Tukey's post-hoc test. Results: Results of the microhardness showed that without pH cycling; CPP-ACP recorded a higher statistically significant difference than nHAP. Additionally, after pH cycling, CPP-ACP recorded a non-significant difference than nHAP. Moreover, EDX results revealed that the Ca\/P ratio for the nHAP group recorded the highest statistically significant difference than all tested groups followed by CPP-ACP without pH cycling, baseline and CPP-ACP after pH cycling, respectively. Conclusion: CPP-ACP and nHAP both had a positive effect on causing remineralization of enamel. Nano-hydroxyapatite was more effective as compared to CPP-ACP, in increasing the calcium and phosphorus content of enamel in both presence and absence of pH cycling.

+{"text":"Oparin was the first who realized that no evolution in the prebiotic world was possible without a competition and hence compartmentalization, some form of segregation of biomolecules from the environment [1]. His 'coagulates' (bits of a gel) and then 'coacervates' (colloid vesicles) were the first models of primitive cells. The need for compartmentalization is now commonly aknowledged [2-4]. Most modern theories consider liposomes as a pre-cellular form of compartmentalization. Liposomes are capable of spontaneous proliferation by incorporating new lipid micelles or molecules followed by breaking down into smaller vesicles. Moreover, it was shown that if a liposome was loaded with RNA, NTPs, and a replicase, the liposome division was coupled with RNA replication [5], which is reminiscent of cell division. However, in using liposomes as cell analogs there are a lot of yet unresolved problems, of which the most serious is that lipid membrane is hardly permeable to hydrophilic low molecular weight compounds, such as nucleotides or their precursors needed for the synthesis of biopolymers, which have to enter the cell from the environment. Even passive diffusion of such compounds is very slow, with the half time required for the transmembrane equilibration exceeding 10 h [6]. This makes the rate of intra-liposome synthesis of nucleic acids unacceptably low even at the extra-liposome concentration of nucleotide substrates as high as 5 mM, which can hardly be expected of the 'primordial soup'. Another form of compartmentalization of biochemical reactions could be molecular colonies that form when RNA or DNA are amplified in a porous solid medium [7,8]. The synthesized copies remain nearby the parental template, and make up a spherical cluster of molecules which resembles a cell. The principal difference from the cell is that molecular colony is not enveloped with a lipid membrane. Nevertheless, compartmentalization is achieved as long as the colony is separated from the surrounding medium. It was shown that all basic biochemical reactions needed for the reproduction and functioning of a living cell, such as RNA or DNA replication, transcription, and even translation, can occur in molecular colonies. Moreover, molecular colonies were shown to be able of linking the phenotype to genotype which is needed for the natural selection and evolution.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":89368535,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2560296010","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Conservative medical treatment options include topical decongestants and corticosteroids, antihistamines, systemic decongestants, mast cell stabilizers, and immunotherapy. However, in patients who have failed medical management, surgical reduction of the inferior turbinates is an effective treatment. Many surgical techniques exist to reduce the size of the inferior turbinates. Conventional surgical options include partial or total turbinectomy, turbinoplasty, electrocautery, cryotherapy, laser cautery, submucosal resection, and submucosal resection with lateral displacement.

Here, even more specifically, we deal with the semantics of call-by-value guarded iteration.

+{"text":"INTRODUCTION Wildlife (hunting) enterprises are important sources of revenue for property owners in New Mexico, and consequently elk (Cervus elaphus) and mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) are vital economic resources for private landowners (Figure 1). Sustainable management of these resources requires accurate monitoring of populations. This is particularly true in arid habitats where annual changes in population productivity, and thus sustainable harvest and trophy quality, can be pronounced (Heffelfinger et al., 2003; Bender, 2011). Many methods have been used to monitor the status, composition, and trends of deer and elk populations. Methods range from trend indices, which provide information on whether a population is increasing, stable, or declining, to abundance estimators, which provide a population estimate (Lancia et al., 1996). Population estimates are preferable to trend estimators for several reasons. First, they allow direct calculation of harvestable surplus. Population estimates can also be converted to densities, and relationships between resource availability (forage, etc.) and population size can be determined. Ultimately, it is the per capita resource (food, water) availability that determines individual body condition and thus population productivity, harvestable surplus, and animal (trophy) quality (Bender, 2011). The most common trend indices used by landowners include minimum counts, spotlight or ground counts, and pellet group surveys. Unfortunately, most of these commonly used trend indices have many assumptions that usually result in trend information of uncertain value, and very few have been calibrated to actual population size (Keegan et al., 2011). Consequently, these methods are seldom used by management agencies to monitor populations because of the inherent problems and inaccuracies in these methods. For population estimates, the most commonly used and probably best method is an aerial sight-bias (sightability) model (Samuel et al., 1987; Otten et al., 1993). Sightability model surveys can be expensive to conduct because they require the use of a helicopter (Figure 2), but","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":53579729,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Hepatic fibrosis is associated with activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSC), the major source of the extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins.

In the control rats the HSC did not express smooth muscle actin, collagen type I gene, or tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases\u20102 (TIMP\u20102), suggesting that they were in their quiescent state. When treated with TAA, the livers displayed large fibrous septa, which were populated by smooth muscle actin\u2010positive cells expressing high levels of the collagen \u03b11(I) gene and containing high levels of TIMP\u20102, all of which are characteristic of advanced fibrosis. Halofuginone given orally before fibrosis induction prevented the activation of most of the stellate cells and the remaining cells expressed low levels of collagen \u03b11(I) gene, resulting in low levels of collagen. The level of TIMP\u20102 was almost the same as in the control livers. When given to rats with established fibrosis, halofuginone caused almost complete resolution of the fibrotic condition. The levels of collagen, collagen \u03b11(I) gene expression, TIMP\u20102 content, and smooth muscle actin\u2010positive cells were as in the control rats. Halofuginone inhibited the proliferation of other cell types of the fibrotic liver in vivo and inhibited collagen production and collagen \u03b11(I) gene expression in the SV40\u2010immortalized rat HSC\u2010T6 cells in vitro.

+{"text":"formulations of the issue of nationalism in general are worthless. One must differentiate between the nationalism of the oppressor and the nationalism of the oppressed, between great-nation nationalism and small nation nationalism. With regard to the latter, we nationals of a great na tion have almost always shown ourselves in historical practice guilty of countless acts of violence and, what is more, we do not even notice that we commit countless acts of violence and humiliation of others. It will suffice when I recall my own experience in the Volga region where other nationali ties are treated with contempt, where Poles are invariably spoken of as Polaks, Tatars as \"princes,\" Ukrainians as \"kholkhols\" and Georgian and other peoples from that region as \"Caucasus types.\" That is why the internationalism of an oppressing nation, a so-called great nation (although it is only great in its power, great only as a great bully) should consist not only in observing the formal equality of all nations but in preserving inequalities by means of which the oppressing nation, the great nation, can make up for the inequa lity that happens in real life. Whoever has not understood this has not grasped the truly proletarian attitude to the question of nationalities; he in fact perseveres in his petty bourgeois views, and hence cannot but slide con stantly towards bourgeois positions. Stressing the need for special care, understanding and flexibility to ward the Georgian people, Lenin directs a thinly-veiled attack against Stalin and Ordzhonikidze in the words: The Georgian who is neglectful of this aspect of the question, or who carelessly flings about accusations of 'nationalist-socialism\" (whereas he himself is a real and true \"nationalist-socialist,'' and even a vulgar Great Russian bully), violates, in substance, the interests of proletarian class soli darity, for nothing holds up the development and strengthening of prole tarian class solidarity so much as national injustice; \"offended\" nationals are sensitive to nothing so much as the feeling of equality and the violation of this equality, if only through negligence or jest... Tliat is why the funda mental interest of proletarian solidarity, and consequently of the proletarian class struggle, requires that we never adopt a formal attitude to the national question, but always take into acount the specific attitude of the proletarian of the oppressed (or small) nation towards the oppressor (or great) nation. Continuing with the practical means which should be applied in that particular situation, Lenin demanded that Ordzhonikidze be punished in exemplary fashion and also that \"the materials of the Dzerzhinsky commission be re-examined in order to correct the enormous number of omissions and partisan judgments which are undoubtedly contained there in. The political responsibility for the entire truly Great-Russian-national istic campaign should, of course, be laid at the door of Stalin and Dzerzh insky.\" To adopt even in small matters an imperialistic attitude towards oppressed nationalities, wrote Lenin, \"totally undermines our principled This content downloaded from 188.8.131.52 on Mon, 05 Sep 2016 04:20:00 UTC All use subject to http:\/\/about.jstor.org\/terms Lenirts Ideas on Nationality Problem 67 sincerity, our principled defence of the struggle against imperialism.\" Even the smallest tactlessness and injustice towards the other national ities in our midst, continued Lenin, \"undermines the authority of the So viet state and amounts to unpardonable opportunism.\" In the struggle against abuses of a purely Russian nature \"it is necessary to be particu larly resourceful, not to mention the special honesty of those who will undertake that struggle.\" On January 24, 1923 Lenin asked for the materials of the Dzerzhinsky commission since he wanted to have them at hand for the 12th Party Congress, due to open on March 30 of that year. He asked for them over and over again and evidently was worried by the matter, but it was not till February 1st that the Politburo allowed Lenin to have the papers. Two weeks later Lenin dictated to his faithful secretary Lidia Fotieva three recommendations for the Politburo. The first: people should not be beaten?this addressed to Ordzhonikidze; the second: concessions were necessary?in favor of the Georgians of course; the third: a large nation cannot be compared with a tiny one, in other words the Russians should reckon with the susceptibilities of the Georgians. Then he asked a question: \"Did Stalin know? And if so, why did he not react?\" Finally, he dictated a critical remark: \"The names of the deviationists, if we are dealing here with a deviation towards chauvinism and Menshevism, prove that the advocates of great-power attitudes are guilty of this deviation.\" Those advocates of great-power attitudes were: Stalin, Ordzhonikidze, Yenukidze and Dzerzhinsky. As we can see, Lenin s sympathies were with Mdivani and, as we would say today, the Georgian \"national Com munists.\" On March 5 Lenin dictated a letter to Trotsky, asking him to defend the cause of the Georgians at the Central Committee plenum, and justifying this request by his (Lenin's) complete lack of faith in the impartiality of Stalin and Dzerzhinsky. However, Trotsky refused. Fin ally, on March 6th, Lenin dictated a letter to Mdivani, Maharadze and others of that group, sending a copy to Trotsky and Kamenev (Volume 54 of the 5th Russian-language edition of Lenin's works and Volume 45 of the English edition). It runs: \"I am following your case with all my heart. I am indignant at Ordzhonikidze's brutality and the conniv ance of Stalin and Dzerzhinsky. I am preparing for you notes and a speech.,, However, Lenin never delivered his planned speech and was unable to take part in the Party Congress. On March 9th, he suffered his third stroke, lost the power of speech and never returned to active political life. The resolution voted at the 12th Congress of the Russian Communist Party (Bolsheviks) completely ignored Lenin's views on the Georgian question and instead expressed those held by Stalin. Accord ing to the official Party report, the Congress unmasked Mdivani and This content downloaded from 184.108.40.206 on Mon, 05 Sep 2016 04:20:00 UTC All use subject to http:\/\/about.jstor.org\/terms 68 The Polish Review other Georgian nationalist deviationists as well as their great-power pol icies towards other nationalities in Georgia, especially the Armenians. In other words, the blacksmith was guilty but the locksmith was hanged. True, Mdivani and Maharadze spoke at the Congress, accusing Ordz honikidze of brutal behavior in Georgia and quoting Lenin's views. True, they were supported by Rakovsky, who showed that Stalin's entire con cept of federalism pointed the way to Russian domination. True, Bu kharin declared that \"if Lenin were here, he would give the Russian chauvinists a dressing down.\" But Trotsky remained silent and Stalin promised to make certain amendments to his plan. The Congress ap proved his conclusions and passed on to the next point on the agenda. Mdivani lost his case and it was not until 1936 that the Transcaucasian Federation of Soviet Republics was dissolved and Georgia became a fe derated republic on a par with Ukraine or Byelorussia. But during those twelve years, Stalin managed to deal once and for all with the alleged Georgian deviationists. It is correct to say that in the last period of his life Lenin concentrated his interest and writings on two issues: the struggle against bureaucracy and the struggle against Great-Russian chauvinism, and these taken to gether can be considered as a struggle against the degeneration of Bol shevism. Lenin obviously imagined that Bolshevism could survive in a pure and crystalline form while preserving a one-party state system and a totalitarian dictatorship. The further course of events showed that this was a contradiction in itself. None the less, Soviet citizens belonging to ethnic groups, such as the Polish group, can appeal to Lenin's spiritual testament, contained in the notes he dictated towards the end of his life, as a shield against Great-Russian chauvinism. Lenin was apologetic because five years of Soviet power had not sufficed to eliminate that chauvinism from the Soviet bureaucratic apparatus. Not five but fifty nine years have now gone by, and Great-Russian chauvinism is still in full bloomThe struggle against it, the struggle against what Lenin called the social-nationalism of the purely Russian \"Black Hundred\" tyrants, is a vital necessity for Poles and other ethnic groups in the So viet Union, as well as a matter of conscience for the public opinion of the free world.

Where farmers used fertilizers in their farms in the hope of increasing their agricultural production. Though, if fertilizer application is poorly managed, instead of having an increased production it will result in the contrary. Therefore, the efficient use of fertilizer is critical and has a great impact on crop production. Thus this study aims to show the pattern of Philippine' regions crop production, specifically in rainfed and irrigated palay; white and yellow corn. This will also show which fertilizer will maximize their crop production and to seek for the most applicable association model in forecasting future crop production. Three predictive techniques were used namely, canopy clustering, Apriori association rule mining and time series forecasting models. Results reveal that all regions have a low volume of production for rainfed rice. The canopy clustering shows the pattern leading to the high production of irrigated rice for Region III. Also, Region II, Region X, and Region XII have a high volume of production of yellow corn and lastly clustering results on white corn shows Region VII has a Mid area harvested but shows Low volume of production, while Region X though have a low area harvested managed to have a Mid volume of production. The association of fertilizers to the volume of production shows that low Ammophos leads to a lower volume of production and the low Ammosul is not associated with a low volume of production hence a combination of low Ammosul and low Ammophos leads to a low volume of production. The forecasting methods' linear regression, Gaussian processes, and SMOreg are all applicable in predicting the regions' volume of production, whereas the SMOreg has the least MAE of 8.90% for Region VI.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":219759528,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3029579492","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1088\/1757-899X\/803\/1\/012021","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In terms of the character of Roman legal science, Fritz Schulz clarified the lack of treatises, which he saw as an endeavor that \"eschewed legal history, law reform, and legal philosophy, laid stress mainly on case law and difficulties and was only vaguely interested in system and abstraction.\" This explanation may well have been written regarding common law, but no doubt one would like to wish to qualify it in some respects. Eventually, however, the common law system developed and preserved a treatise literature, and the typical style of legal writing became British and American treatises in the nineteenth century.

The illustrations are based on observed data from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Streamflow Network (U.S. Geological Survey, 2018a). The period of 1930\u20132017 was used because the number of streamgages before 1930 was too small to provide representative data for computing statistics for most regions of the country. In the summary, reference is made to the term \"runoff,\" which is the depth to which a river basin, State, or other geographic area would be covered with water if all the streamflow within the area during a specified period was uniformly distributed on it. The value of runoff quantifies the magnitude of water flowing through the Nation's rivers and streams in measurement units that can be compared from one area to another. In this summary, runoff for a specified period and geographic area is computed from all streamgages with complete record in the geographic area. In all the graphics, a rank of 1 indicates the highest annual flow of all years analyzed and 88 indicates the lowest annual flow of all years.

+{"text":"research and development, long united at Bell Labs, and sent tens of thousands of development engineers into AT&T's business units. This was exactly the opposite of the strategy Jewett outlined at Bell Labs' beginnings. Gehani's career at Bell Labs traces the arc of history defined by changing ideas on the role of industrial research since 1980. When he began, research was seen as remote from mundane business concerns, and the mixing of high-level science with commercial needs was seen as a cardinal sin, at least to research scientists. He recounts his growing unease with this line of separation, and his willingness to violate a clear but unwritten rule among research scientists by going over to development for a time. By the 1990s, as the excitement in technology shifted to start-up software firms in California, Gehani went west with a new Bell Labs Silicon Valley research group. There he developed Maps On Us, a highly successful mapping program still used on the Internet today. Unfortunately, Lucent was unable to market this product, and Gehani had to be content with seeing the program sold to Switchboard. Still, he ends his book on a chapter entitled \"Most Fantastic Place\" and remains a Labs' enthusiast even after retirement. As Gehani notes, industrial research has shifted between poles, moving from systemto market-oriented moments. So perhaps the Labs' problems in the 1990s and early 2000s were a result of a natural tendency of adjustment. (In the interest of full disclosure, the author cites some of my work in making this argument.) Yet overall, the sense we are left with is, despite the Labs' incredible \"crown jewel\" talent, Gehani's experiences were marked by disappointment. He and his organization were left out of some of the more exciting software opportunities of the late 1990s. As a memoir, Gehani's book gives us an insider's view of the trials and frustrations of trying to combine commercial success and scientific excellence, something Frank Jewett certainly would have appreciated. As a history of what has happened to industrial research organizations, it is more notable for the questions it raises. Was Bell Labs doomed to its current fate, or could it have adapted to new market conditions? Are we seeing the end of an old model of corporate research, a transition to something new and more appropriate, or simply a mistaken abandonment of a source of national innovative strength? As someone who experienced the world of science and commerce firsthand during a moment of great change and uncertainty, Gehani appreciates more than most commentators that each has its own set of values and each adds value to our lives. The question is, how will these two realms connect? Today's solutions, which seem destined to kill off basic research altogether, are not exactly ideal.

It uses commercial arbitration as an example of an international profession and adds to the prevalent understanding of gender inequality by developing a framework called 'invisible stigmatisation'.

These data have helped to contextualise the nuances of gender-based stigmatisation in prestigious arbitral appointments and at the echelons of international arbitration law firms.

+{"text":"Measurement differencing with GPS is an important method to reduce shared error between a user and a nearby reference station. It may also be crucial for position, navigation, and timing of lunar surface users. In conjunction with a relative positioning method, users on the surface of the Moon can utilize measurement differencing to achieve high accuracy, real-time positioning. This report analyzes improvements in surface positioning performance with single and double differenced measurements implemented with Joint Doppler and Ranging (JDR). JDR is a relative Doppler and range-based positioning method that can localize a surface user with a minimal navigation infrastructure. Previous analyses show JDR is effective at positioning lunar surface users near a reference station with as few as a single satellite. This analysis introduces updated implementations of JDR with the use of single and double differencing for both code-based range and Doppler measurements. These implementations include three total differencing methods with JDR along with comparisons of their positioning performance. Along with the known benefits provided by differencing code-based range measurements, differencing Doppler measurements enables cancellation effects of transmitted and local frequency offsets. This report performs a navigation simulation to calculate position estimation performance for a lunar surface user. This simulation assumes two Lunar Relay Satellites (LRS) in 12-hour frozen orbits as navigation nodes with a pre-existing reference station located on the south pole of the Moon. Modelled simulation errors include satellite ephemeris and reference station errors as Gaussian variables and satellite and user frequency errors as Brownian noise processes. These bias and noise sources are carefully distinguished between navigation nodes to ensure that the user and reference station see the proper shared error. Results show significant improvements in navigation performance with double differenced JDR (DD-JDR) relative to standard JDR and single differenced JDR (SD-JDR). DD-JDR can also reduce the effects of user local oscillator errors, including frequency offsets and noise. The reduction of these shared errors not only leads to improved positioning accuracy, but also results in lower timing hardware and receiver hardware requirements for the user. This greatly decreases cost and increases compatibility of JDR for autonomous lunar surface users.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":258725864,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/AERO55745.2023.10115954","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

As these sensors are used to a greater extent newer and better ways to keep them working optimally have begun to surface. One such method aims to further the sensors energy independence on humans. This technique is known as energy scavenging. The logic behind energy scavenging is to allow the device to have its own reliable source of energy that does not require upkeep, has a long life expectancy, and does not completely rely on an internal power source. The aim of this thesis is to research techniques for indoor energy scavenging for sensor that is used to monitor patients in a hospital. There are numerous techniques to achieve energy scavenging in wireless sensor networks. Multiple scavenging methods are known such as vibration energy, thermoelectric energy, and photovoltaic energy. All of these methods were analyzed and compared to see which would be optimal for the situation the sensor would be put in. Other techniques come into play to help the efficiency of the sensor network. These methods were also examined to help the energy scavenging to be more feasible.

The results are given in form of graphs of the input pulse threshold amplitude as a function of the fiber's birefringence. The threshold amplitude is the input pulse amplitude at which the fiber nonlinearity compensates the birefringence and makes the partial pulses travel with the same velocity. The following shapes of the initial pulse were investigated: hyperbolic secant, Gaussian, super Gaussian, super Gaussian second order. The analysis was carried out by numerically solving a pair of coupled Nonlinear Schrodinger Equations using the Split Step Fourier Method. It was assumed that both orthogonal polarization components of the fiber were excited equally. The calculations were performed for an optical fiber made of silica glass. The fiber attenuation was not taken into account.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":135899783,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2044044794","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1117\/12.622336","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"The calcium looping cycle is being developed as a method for capturing CO2 from both flue and fuel gases. It works by using CaO as a CO2 carrier and through repeated cycles of carbonation and calcination can extract CO2 from a gas with a lower partial pressure of CO2 (e.g., exhaust stream from a power station) and provide a pure stream of CO2 suitable for sequestration. A key problem in the development of calcium looping technology is the decrease in reactivity of the sorbent with an increasing number of cycles of carbonation and calcination. The hydration of calcined sorbent has been shown to be a promising way of periodically regenerating the sorbent, so that its reactivity can be recovered, reducing the requirement to purge material from the cycle. In previous work, the reactivity of sorbents after hydration has been mainly studied by thermogravimetric analysis or in a fluidized bed with an unrealistically low calcination temperature.

Here, we report the facile synthesis of PtIr alloy core\u2013shell nanocubes (NCs) with Ir-rich shells as effective EOR electrocatalysts. We find that (100)-exposed Pt38Ir NCs with one-atom-thick Ir-rich skin exhibit unprecedented EOR activity, high CO2 selectivity, and long-term stability, while pure Pt NCs and Pt17Ir NCs (two-atom thick Ir-rich skin) show less activity and lower CO2 selectivity. We demonstrate that the Pt38Ir NCs electrocatalyst can deliver a current density up to 4.5 times higher than that of Pt\/C with a lower EOR onset potential by 320 mV. Its CO2 current density at 0.85 V is 14 times higher than that of commercial Pt\/C.

Using echocardiography, we know that tissue Doppler imaging E\/e' ratio is a reliable predictor of left ventricular filling pressure. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the averaged E\/e' ratio value in patients with type 2 diabetes compared to non-diabetic controls. In the analysis we included cross-sectional studies providing the averaged E\/e' ratio. Subgroup\/sensitivity analyses were conducted according to variables known to influence E\/e' ratio measurements. The analysis included 15 cross sectional studies with 877 type 2 diabetes patients and 1193 controls. The weighted mean difference showed higher values in diabetes (WMD 2.02; 95% CI 1.35, 2.70; p<0.001). The result was consistent in the subgroup\/sensitivity analyses. Visual inspection of the funnel plot did not identify substantial asymmetry and the Egger test for funnel plot asymmetry showed a p value of 0.36. In conclusion, our assessment suggests that averaged E\/e' ratio is consistently increased in patients with type 2 diabetes compared to non-diabetic controls in the absence of cardiovascular diseases and complicated hypertension. This alteration may be a precocious diastolic alteration in the diabetic cardiomyopathy.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":57757868,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2908233700","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0209794","PubMedCentral":"6307698","ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/journals.plos.org\/plosone\/article\/file?id=10.1371\/journal.pone.0209794&type=printable","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"This anthology, 'Sexual inequalities and social justice', explores links between sexual and social inequality. The editors' introduction, 'The analysis of sexual inequality', offers a historical review of research into sex, gender and sexuality, and the way such research has marginalised issues of inequality and social justice. We find a focus on the biological in sexology, with its 'innatism' or essentialism, later to be the object of critiques from social scientists who emphasised the need to look at sexuality and its contexts, as well as its social construction. But even here, Teunis and Herdt suggest that because researchers were trying to move 'from a marginalised, eccentric and vaguely suspect undertaking to a legitimate form of academic inquiry', they had to avoid social issues such as inequality and social change. Even among social scientists, 'blatant' contradictions emerged 'between the needs of sexual health policy reform and academic theory', especially with postmodernism and queer theory, which presented sexuality away from the 'practicalities of lived experience or the problems of social policy' (p. 14). Teunis and Herdt propose that sexual inequality is 'a form of structural violence rooted in sexual objectification by the oppressor and the concomitant sexual subjectivity of the dominated' (p. 3). The anthology offers a good selection of essays that explore different contexts including racism, heterosexism, ageism, xenophobia, and the prejudice against the disabled. The main strength of many of the essays comes with the way voices and narratives give life to the tensions between expectations and lived experiences. Jessica Fields' 'Knowing girls' critiques school-based sexuality education with their assumption of 'Knowledge Attitude Behaviour Health' (p. 73), by offering the students' own reactions, verbal and otherwise. Fields refers to the performance of a 'degradation ritual': 'Throughout my fieldwork, I watched middle-school girls and boys retch, groan, laugh and avert their eyes when their teachers played sexuality education videos . . .' (p. 75). Fields' point is, that students have their own experiences of learning and of knowledge. Teachers, however, presume that the students will gain from knowledge imposed by the schools, with expectations that the students will connect to this later in life with changes in attitudes and behaviour. Complicating sexuality education is the public debate around abstinence-plus and abstinence-only sexuality education, each, again, with its own assumptions about knowledge and behaviour. Fields observes that even the more liberal 'abstinence-plus' advocates still 'sought refuge in desexualised, abstracted representations of female sexuality' (p. 81) when, in fact, sexual knowledge was already part of the girls' lives.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":216592530,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1080\/17441690802076397","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Macroscopic dynamics of plasmas is well governed by the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations. In space plasma phenomena with high-speed flows, various discontinuous structures such as fast and slow shocks are often formed. Therefore, the development of high-resolution shock capturing schemes is important and essential to theoretically clarify the dynamics and structures of the macro scale space plasma phenomena. The HLLD approximate Riemann solver is a standard shock capturing scheme for MHD because of its high-resolution, robustness, and efficiency, in particular [1]. However, multi-dimensional high-resolution shock capturing schemes which can resolve a contact discontinuity sometimes suffer from numerical shock instabilities as a carbuncle phenomenon in general. In the HLLD approximate Riemann solver, the shock instabilities are observed as well, although those are rather weaker than in the linearized approximate Riemann solver [2]. As a contact-preserving high-resolution scheme that is free from the shock instabilities, a genuinely multi-dimensional highresolution scheme may be constructed based on a multi-dimensional Riemann problem. However, that scheme is difficult to be developed even for the Euler equations. In practical simulations, a shock-fix algorithm where the high-resolution scheme is locally replaced by some dissipative low-resolution scheme is often utilized to suppress the shock instabilities. On the other hand, it was conjectured from a comparative study of several schemes for the Euler equations that a source of the shock instabilities may be a pressure difference term of the numerical mass-flux [3]. Therefore, in this study, we construct a shock instability-free HLLD approximate Riemann solver by controlling the numerical mass-flux. The numerical mass-flux in the HLLD approximate Riemann solver is determined by a particle velocity in the Riemann fan. Particularly, in order to suppress unphysical oscillations around discontinuous solutions, the particle velocity is evaluated from the HLL averages of the mass and the momentum in [1]. On the other hand, when the particle velocity is given by a weighted mean, the shock instabilities may be avoided because there is no pressure difference term in the mass-flux in this particle velocity model. Therefore, we propose a hybrid particle velocity model as a function of a Mach number in order to construct a robust shock instability-free high-resolution scheme for MHD.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":221705254,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

(2, 3) The prevalence of smoking for males ranges between 13 to 38% (average 26.5%), while for females it ranges from 1 to 16% (average 9%). (4) Smoking prevalence among students was estimated to be at 14.5%, among those 32.7% males and 5.9% females. The risk factors predispose for smoking among males were age, father's smoking habits and friends' smoking habits; while among females were sister's smoking habits and friends smoking habits. (5) Young adult smokers from Saudi Arabian University exhibited lower levels of fractional exhaled nitric oxide compared to nonsmokers. This could be an early indicator of effects of smoking on lungs. (6) Toxic effects of tobacco smoking are widely known but the shocking data about its health injuring effect are frequently ignored and less disseminated. It causes between 80\u201390% of all lung cancer deaths and increases the risk of other cancers (e.g., bladder, oral cavity and esophagus), cardiovascular disease (e.g., myocardial infarction, stroke), lung diseases (e.g., emphysema, bronchitis), and infectious diseases. In addition, the economic burden caused by tobacco smoking is also eating precious resources of the young government. (7) It is one of the most common forms of nicotine dependence (ND) and, is defined as an addictive disorder by Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorder or International Classification of Diseases. Moreover, ND is one of the most prevalent and, most fatal psychiatric disorders where 30\u201350% of current smokers will die of tobacco-related disorders. Consequently, smoking is still a leading major public health world concern wide. The World Health Organization recently estimated over 1 billion smokers in the world with tobacco use rapidly rising in the developing countries. (8) The secondhand smoke (SHS) contains at least 250 known toxicants generated by the burning of tobacco. The ozone can react with chemicals in SHS to produce ultrafine particles less than 100 nm in diameter. The American Heart Association determined that SHS is a cause of fatal cardiovascular diseases. The third hand smoke (THS) is generally considered to be residual nicotine and other chemicals left on a variety of indoor surfaces by tobacco smoke. This residue is thought to react with common indoor pollutants to create a toxic mixture. This toxic mixture of THS contains cancer-causing substances and poses a potential health hazard to nonsmokers who are unwillingly exposing to it, especially children.

+{"text":"Membrane structures, o en supported by additional sti structure, have been used for li ing surfaces since the first kites and aeroplanes (sometimes derided as \"string and wire contraptions\" by their contemporaries). Since then, technology obviously has come a long way, but, using modern materials like wovens or laminates, membrane structures, o en supported solely by pressure differential or inflated tubes, still o er great opportunities for constructing large lightweight li ing surfaces. While the actual structures o en appear to be quite simple, the engineering process is determined by the strong non-linearity of their behaviour and the impact of flow forces on their actual shape. Thus, the accurate prediction of flow and structural behaviour and its interaction is required. For these fluid-structure-interaction (FSI) simulations the process is usually split in two with separate structural and flow simulation coupled by exchange of flow forces and geometry deformations. In the poster, initially the simulation of structural behaviour constant-stress-triangle (CST) elements [1], extended by anisotropic material, is discussed. This is extended by a description of wrinkling modelling, as particular property of materials used for membrane structures (films, wovens or laminates) is their small bending sti ness. While the folds arising from uniaxial tension can be captured e.g. by buckling analysis when using higher order shell elements [2], the basic CSTelement does not provide for the correct capturing of these e ects. To the contrary, artificial folds with frequency and amplitude determined by element size tend to appear, sti ening the structure in direction of these folds. To correct this shortcoming, a wrinkling model has to be employed. The wrinkling model [3] is based on the idea of a fictitious non-wrinkled membrane, subject only to the uniaxial principal stress, in place of the wrinkled membrane. By this approach, the wrinkles are assumed to be of sub-grid scale. Lastly, the coupling of flow and structural simulations is discussed. The required coupling approach strongly depends on the importance of time-accuracy of the solution. If time-dependency is expected to a ect the result, strong or implicit coupling is required, else, weak or explicit coupling may su ice.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":250450168,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Different from the uniform cutters with fixed pitch angles, the variation of tooth distribution angles of variable pitch cutters significantly affects the stability diagrams of the milling systems. From the viewpoint of the regenerative chatter, the milling system with non-uniform tools is governed by a delayed differential equation (DDE) with multiple delays. Afterwards, the GRKM, an approach verified with high computational accuracy and efficiency for DDEs with a single delay, is extended to tackle the milling systems with multiple delays based on Floquet theory. Besides the pitch angles, other geometry parameters of the cutter are also taken into consideration, such as the helix angle, which is proved with limited influence on the stability lobes. With the objective of maximizing productivity, the resultant stability charts provide valuable reference for the geometry design of variable-pitch cutters and for the choice of machining parameters, i.e. the spindle speed and the depth of cut.\u00a9 2014 ASME","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":108695035,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1978605743","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1115\/IMECE2014-39721","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"The study of Pompeian inscriptions has a long and glorious past. The writings on the walls and carvings in the stone have been investigated thoroughly from many perspectives since the first ones saw the light of day in the early excavations and were published in Volume 4 of the Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum, the highly ambitious publication series of epigraphical texts, in 1871. These inscriptions have been used as important sources for Latin linguistics as well as the political, economic and social history of the Campanian town. Epigraphic material has been used to identify inhabitants of the town and owners of particular properties. And as often is the case, Pompeian evidence has been used as a case study for wider Roman society, with wide-reaching generalisations of the 'Roman life' of the town. Despite the long history, the Pompeian epigraphic evidence has not yet yielded all that it can give. For decades research concentrated mainly on the textual evidence of inscriptions, with no or little attention to the context and materiality of the writings. This has, however, changed rapidly in the past decade, and research into contextualising inscriptions has boomed. Spatial analysis of the find locations has been published for instance by P. Lohmann and R. Benefiel, who have written extensively on graffiti in private houses, and E.-M. Viitanen, whose research concentrates especially on the programmata, publicly painted electoral notices, in their archaeological contexts. The theoretical framework of exploration into inscriptions in their material contexts emphasises how our understanding of both epigraphy and ancient space(s) remains limited if the inscribed texts are treated as separate entities, without taking into account the places and spaces the texts appear in. In the English description of the book under review, the work is set in the 'interconnections between the context, action, content, and materiality of the texts', placing the study in dialogue with this recent research. O. has promoted the holistic approach to inscribed texts in their context previously, as co-editor of Writing Matters. Presenting and Perceiving Monumental Inscriptions in Antiquity and the Middle Ages (2017). The book is an ambitious undertaking aiming at finding out the cultural significance of writing in public space. It studies the inscriptions as artefacts forming part of the social space of the city, shaped by its inhabitants, and is positioned in the intersection of spatial analysis of Pompeii and epigraphic scholarship, focusing on the location and appearance of the inscriptions in urban areas. The starting point is the analysis of the actors involved in writing and reading: what was the communicative function of inscriptions in public space and how was it was achieved, and how did the inscriptions work within their environment? The substantial book is divided into six chapters, including an extensive catalogue of the inscriptions, colour plates, and maps of the texts and spaces discussed. My suggestion for readers is to start their exploration of the book from the end, with the maps and photographs in 'Farbabbildungen' (p. 341 onwards). As the book discusses how the writings were perceived in the built environment, taking a good look around the environment serves as a good starting point. O. argues that not only the writing but also the design and location of the texts are meaningful for communication. Therefore, to understand the spatial aspects of inscribing, readers need to position themselves in the area.

+{"text":"A study presented here by Ivan J. Suner, MD, chief of ophthalmology at the Miami Veterans Affairs Medical Center, suggested a possible inflammatory mechanism through which cigarette smoking damages the eye in AMD. \"A lot of epidemiological evidence links AMD with smoking but there has been a gap in the basic science to explain the mechanism,\" Suner explained. In studies with mice, he and his colleagues found that both smoke and nicotine activate macrophages; the activated macrophages cause neovascularization and result in the progression from an early to advanced form of AMD or further deterioration in animals with advanced AMD. Nicotine alone also leads to neovascularization and further deterioration in mice with advanced AMD. The findings suggest the possible mechanism underlying smoking-related eye damage. They also suggest that even nicotine replacement such as a nicotine patch used as an aid for smoking cessation may be detrimental in patients with advanced AMD. C-reactive protein (CRP), a systemic inflammatory marker associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, also has been associated with AMD in a clinic-based case-control study (Seddon et al. JAMA. 2004;291:704-710). This association was also seen in new findings from the Rotterdam Study, a prospective, population-based study, reported Paulus T. V. M. de Jong, MD, PhD, of the Netherlands Ophthalmic Research Institute in Amsterdam. The study, which involved more than 4800 individuals aged 55 years or older from the Netherlands, found an association between baseline plasma CRP levels and the 12year incidence of AMD, he said. However, findings from other studies presented here, a nested casecontrol analysis of 188 individuals with moderate to advanced AMD and 195 controls, and a cohort study of more than 300 individuals, failed to find a relationship between markers of inflammation and AMD. These findings do not rule out local inflammation as a cause of AMD, noted Ronald Klein, MD, MPH, professor of ophthalmology at the University of Wisconsin at Madison, but they do indicate that more research is needed. Studies examining whether inflammatory markers other than CRP are associated with cardiovascular disease and an analysis of several large population-based AMD studies may help to clarify the putative link between inflammation and the eye disease. For now, Klein cautioned, given that inflammation's role in AMD has not been proved and in light of conflicting results from studies examining whether nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are protective, it is premature to presume that such drugs have a role in treating or preventing the disease.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":31802838,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1503956109","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1001\/JAMA.294.1.32","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

We obtain a lower bound on the output state fidelity valid for any pure input state. We define number-diagonal signal (NDS) states to be input states whose density operator in the signal modes is diagonal in the multimode number basis. For such input states, we derive series formulas for the optimal error probability, the output state fidelity, and the Chernoff-type upper bounds on the error probability. For the special cases of quantum reading of a classical digital memory and target detection (for which the reflectivities are real valued), we show that for a given input signal photon probability distribution, the fidelity is minimized by the NDS states with that distribution and that for a given average total signal energy N{sub s}, the fidelity is minimized by any multimode Fock state with N{sub s} total signal photons. For reading of an ideal memory, it is shown that Fock state inputsmore\u00a0\u00bb minimize the Chernoff bound.

While the nonclassical states in general perform better than the coherent state, the quantitative performance gains differ depending on the values of the reflectances.

This general representation allows to use empirical or drift flux based correlations. For a correct prediction of the stability behavior of a pipeline-riser flow, preventing the occurrence of severe slugging, it is important to assess the sensitivity of the system response to different void fraction correlations. Three void fraction correlations are implemented: Bendiksen (1984), Chexal et al. (1997) and Bhagwat and Ghajar (2014). The resulting stability maps and state variables profiles for vertical risers are compared for the different correlations. Results show that the different correlations give similar stability maps, with very small differences in the near horizontal branch (low gas superficial velocities) of the stability boundary and slight differences in the near vertical branch (low liquid superficial velocities).

+{"text":"This paper presents the intermediate results of the Learning Network on Sustainable Energy Systems (LeNSes) an African-European multi-polar network for curriculum development on Design for Sustainability (DfS) focused on Distributed Renewable Energy (DRE) and Sustainable Product-Service Systems (S.PSS). The paper discusses the convergence between the S.PSS and DRE models as promising approaches to provide sustainable energy solutions for all by increasing its access and improving efficiency in use. Currently, the project partners are collaboratively developing new curricula focused on these combined approaches. The paper examines the S.PSS and DRE models and how they can be used to develop and implement sustainable energy solutions for all within the African context. The research hypothesis is that S.PSS could be applied to DRE to offer a range of benefits such as: economic, environmental and socio-ethical. The paper describes some of the project activities that includes: development of a new modular and adaptable package of learning resources focused on DRE and S.PSS for the design discipline; implementation of pilot courses at African Higher Educational Institutions (HEIs) targeted at undergraduate and graduate students, practitioners and companies; and development of an open web platform for distributed production and transfer of knowledge and know-how in this area. The innovation of the project described in the paper is twofold, firstly by developing unique curricula based on design for sustainability focused on S.PSS and DRE applied to the African contexts, and secondly by delivering it through an open platform for free and in copy-left. This will equip design students in African universities with a broad knowledge base, as well as effective methods and tools with which to play an active role in the development and diffusion of sustainable energy systems.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":55378596,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2339099437","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Field studies were conducted which show that these problems are commonly caused by deposition of amine and\/or ammonia hydrochloride salts. Since these salts can deposit only if their equilibrium vapor pressures are exceeded, salt volatility is a major criterion of neutralizer selection. A survey of the literature indicates that amine salt volatility has not been considered in a quantitative manner until now. Knudsen effusion measurements have been used to determine equilibrium vapor pressure functions for the hydrochloride salts of five commonly applied neutralizers and ammonia. A spreadsheet was developed to utilize these vapor pressure functions along with crude unit operating conditions to predict salt dewpoints in crude units. To address the needs of crude units where salt deposition is not avoidable with traditional neutralizers, a research program was conducted to develop new neutralizers which form more volatile hydrochloride salts.

+{"text":"Identification of risk, the potential for occurrence of an event and impact of that event, is the first step in improving a process by ranking risk elements and controlling potential harm from occurrence of a detrimental event. Hydraulic Fracturing has become a hot environmental discussion topic and a target of media articles and University studies during development of gas shales near populated areas. The furor over fracturing and frac waste disposal was largely driven by lack of chemical disclosure and the pre2008 laws of some states. The spectacular increase in North American natural gas reserves created by shale gas development makes shale gas a disruptive technology, threatening profitability and continued development of other energy sources. Introduction of such a disruptive force as shale gas will invariably draw resistance, both monetary and political, to attack the disruptive source, or its enabler; hydraulic fracturing. Some \u2015anti-frack\u2016 charges in media articles and university studies are based in fact and require a stateby-state focused improvement of well design specific for geology of the area and oversight of overall well development. Other articles have demonstrated either a severe misunderstanding or an intentional misstatement of well development processes, apparently to attack the disruptive source. Transparency requires cooperation from all sides in the debate. To enable more transparency on the oil and gas side, both to assist in the understanding of oil and gas activities and to set a foundation for rational discussion of fracturing risks, a detailed explanation of well development activities is offered in this paper, from well construction to production, written at a level of general public understanding, along with an initial estimation of frac risk and alternatives to reduce the risk, documented by literature and case histories. This discussion is a starting point for the well development descriptions and risk evaluation discussions, not an ending point. Introduction to Risk There are no human endeavors without risk. \u2015Risk management is the identification, assessment and prioritization of risks followed by coordinated and economical application of resources to minimize, monitor and control probability and\/or impact of unfortunate effects\u2016 (Wikipedia). Managing these risks and communicating both risks and changes to reduce risks are part of an often repeated approach termed \u2015license to operate\u2016 (Liroff, 2011). At a minimum, basic risk concerns are: People, Economic Loss (to all concerned), Environmental Damage and Reputation Loss. Figure 1, a standard loss matrix used by Apache Canada in the Horn River development (DeMong, 2010), is a good starting place for the discussion. Consequences run from slight and practically unavoidable to severe and avoidable at all costs. This paper, for purposes of brevity, will focus solely on risk to the environment from hydraulic fracturing operations, starting with transport of materials and ending when the well is routed to the production facilities and gas sales begin.

+{"text":"The precision with which the elevation of a feature, such as a terrace, can be measured depends on the characterization of the noise contaminating the measurement. A method for identification and extraction of terrace feature elevations is presented and the topographic noise, due to erosion, as well as measurement error, is quantified. High\u2010resolution digital elevation models (DEM) are acquired at six wave\u2010cut, volcanic bedrock terrace sites from around the highstand of paleo\u2010Lake Lahontan in the western Great Basin. Local DEMs, which are tied to regional geodetic control, were acquired using conventional total station, rapid postprocessed and real\u2010time kinematic Global Positioning System methods. The topographic signal is processed with derivative filters for geomorphic feature recognition and averaging for noise reduction. Results indicate that noise levels for identifiable features such as riser crest, knickpoint, and slope inflection point are statistically equivalent and on the order of 0.5 m standard deviation. Averaging within topographic bins spanning \u223c50 m along terrace strike yields feature elevation estimates with standard errors on the order of 0.12 m. The mean bench window elevation (between the riser crest and knickpoint) has the lowest standard error and is systematically related to water level. Propagation of surveying, geoid estimation, and terrace feature elevation estimation errors indicates that displacements on the order of 0.5 m may be resolved using these methods. Elevation estimate interpretation involves terrace development, degradation, and neotectonics, but this new methodology has significant advantages in studies of neotectonic or geomorphic processes using local terrace elevation measurements.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":140202259,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2004027059","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1029\/2001JB000344","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

This can cause abrupt failure and reduce a metal's mechanical properties. A variety of ceramic coatings are available that can be applied to enhance functionality and prevent corrosion, particularly at high temperatures. The majority of ceramic coatings are typically electrically nonconducting, making them excellent insulators. It also has a high melting temperature of up to 4000\u2e30F and remarkable abrasion resistance. Due to these characteristics, they offer exceptional corrosion resistance and strong abrasion resistance in high temperature conditions. In this research, the team synthesize ceramic coating which may provide exceptional abrasion resistant as well high temperature oxidation resistance. Before selecting the ingredients, it needs to be examined the compatibility between mild steel (sample) and constituents of ceramic coating, majorly the thermal expansion characteristics. It must be identical otherwise fractures can be produced on the coated surface of a metal. Samples were made as per demand, following collecting a sample and cleaned accurately to attach the coating appropriately. After application of coating on sample it should place in furnace which promote diffusion on a metal surface and construct protective barrier. Further, dipping the sample in 3.5% NaCl solution for 21 days and execute the OCP and EIS test of naked sample and coated sample correspondingly for 5 days.

CE is one of the most prevalent zoonotic dis\u00adeases in Argentina, southern Brazil, Chile, Peru, and Uruguay. In these countries, sheep farming and its associated numbers of working dogs, compounded by the practice of slaughtering adult sheep for home con\u00adsumption and allowing dogs to feed on infected vis\u00adcera, generate the ideal conditions for the disease cycle (4, 5). It has been estimated (5) that more than 2 000 new cases of CE in humans are notified annually by the five countries mentioned. Studies carried out us\u00ading ultrasound screenings in the asymptomatic human population have permitted more precise measurement of the disease's prevalence in various communities af\u00adfected. Accordingly, the following infection rates have been reported: 5.5% in Rio Negro, Argentina (1986); 14.2% in Loncopue, Neuquen, Argentina (1988); 1.6% in Tacuarembo, Uruguay (1990); 1.6% in Florida, Uru\u00adguay (1997); 3.6% in Durazno, Uruguay (1998); and 5.1% in Vichaycocha, Peru (1999) (5\u20138).

Likewise, eventual losses in wool or meat sales have not been accurately measured, and are imperceptible to the farmer who, therefore, does not perceive echino\u00adcoccosis to be a production issue (10, 11).The objectives of this study are to describe gen\u00aderal CE control principles, to analyze the results of the control programs implemented in South America from","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":130715158,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2184716938","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Typically, AIV and FIV are evaluated separately. However, review of some of the existing AIV assessment methods, particularly those that rely on empirical correlations with known failure cases, suggests that they effectively include an FIV element. In the case of a PSV tailpipe joining a subheader at a tee, the FIV is primarily present near the tee while AIV also present away from the tee. Therefore, combining the AIV and FIV assessments unwittingly into one assessment can result in significant conservatism away from the tee. Formulations for the FIV prediction and combining AIV and FIV into a pipe fatigue life assessment are presented. Data from a flare header test system is used to demonstrate the formulations and justify simplifications.

In ESC, the extent of the exploration space is controlled according not only to the domain complexity, but also to the learners' competence, understanding levels, experiences, characteristics, etc. The control is done by restricting exploration tools provided in user interface, tailoring information to be presented, recommending a few among a number of choices, etc. This paper also demonstrates an application of ESC to an interactive simulation-based system in the domain of human ear.

+{"text":"Patriotic images such as the American flag have had a prominent place in news coverage in the United States particularly since the terrorist attacks of 9\/11. Previous research suggests that patriotic images do not affect how viewers perceive journalistic norms (Barnett and Roselle, 2008). However, our research conducted in 2007 suggested that subgroups within the population respond differently to these patriotic images; liberals and Democrats exposed to patriotic images, for example, were less likely to fear future terrorist attacks than conservatives and Republicans who also saw these same images. One plausible explanation is related to frame switching \u2013 or the activation of particular frames associated with symbolic icons. Because the flag had come to be associated with the Bush Administration's War on Terror, perhaps Democrats and Liberals who viewed news stories with the US flag were primed to be less fearful. This logic suggests that this finding would no longer hold after the election of Barack Obama. The current research analyzes the use of patriotic images (the American flag) in summer 2009. The study uses an experimental model to test again whether or not patriotic images in news stories affect the degree to which they consider the news objective, fair, and balanced. Results are consistent with our 2008 findings. In addition, the frame switching explanation is partially supported as now Conservatives who see the patriotic version of news stories are more inclusive or egalitarian in some limited areas.

During severe drought, isoprene emissions are reduced.\nIn this paper, we focus on capturing this reduction signal by implementing a new percentile isoprene drought stress (yd) algorithm in NASA GISS ModelE based on the MEGAN3 (Model of Emissions of Gases and Aerosols from Nature Version\u00a03) approach as a function of a photosynthetic parameter\n(Vc,max) and water stress (\u03b2). Four global transient\nsimulations from 2003\u20132013 are used to demonstrate the effect without\nyd (Default_ModelE) and with online yd\n(DroughtStress_ModelE). DroughtStress_ModelE is evaluated against the observed isoprene measurements at the Missouri Ozarks AmeriFlux (MOFLUX) site during the 2012 severe drought where improvements in the correlation coefficient indicate it is a suitable drought stress parameterization to capture the reduction signal during severe drought. The application of yd globally leads to a decadal average reduction of \u223c2.7\u2009%, which is equivalent to \u223c14.6\u2009Tg\u2009yr\u22121 of isoprene. The changes have larger impacts in regions such as the southeastern US. DroughtStress_ModelE is validated using the satellite \u03a9HCHO column from the Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) and surface O3 observations across regions of the US to examine the effect of drought on atmospheric composition. It was found that the inclusion of isoprene drought stress reduced the overestimation of \u03a9HCHO in Default_ModelE during the 2007 and 2011 southeastern US droughts and led to improvements in simulated O3 during drought periods. We conclude that isoprene drought stress should be tuned on a model-by-model basis because the variables used in the parameterization responses are relative to the land surface model hydrology scheme (LSM) and the effects of yd application could be larger than seen here due to ModelE not having large biases of isoprene during severe drought.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":249121403,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.5194\/acp-22-13303-2022","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/acp.copernicus.org\/articles\/22\/13303\/2022\/acp-22-13303-2022.pdf","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Background: Approximately 1500 women in Cameroon die annually from cervical cancer, but only 8% of women at risk have undergone cervical cancer screening. The objective of this study was to analyze the impact of an intrahospital awareness strategy on the frequency of cervical cancer screening at Yaound\u00e9 University Teaching Hospital(YUTH). Materials and Methods: This quasi-experimental study (before\/after) was conducted at the Yaound\u00e9 UTH. It involved women who received an awareness of cervical cancer intervention at the Yaound\u00e9 CHU (intervention group) and those who did not (without intervention group) for 4 months (March to June) of 2 consecutive years (2016 and 2017). Proportions, central tendency parameters (mean or median), odds ratios (ORs), and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. Results: A total of 1,313 women participated in screening for cervical cancer, of whom 40.60% were in the without intervention group and 59.40% were in the intervention group. The level of education and marital status were heterogeneously distributed in the two groups (P < 0.05). Women with a higher education level and who were married were more likely to participate in cervical cancer screening after intrahospital sensitization (OR [95% CI] = 5.64 [4.41\u20137.20] and OR [95% CI] = 1.48 [1.19\u20131.85], respectively). Conclusion: An intrahospital awareness intervention increased the number of participants in screening for cervical cancer. There is a need to implement this strategy in other hospitals and place particular emphasis on sensitizing less educated and single women.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":237426804,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.4103\/jcrp.jcrp_8_21","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYNCND","url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4103\/jcrp.jcrp_8_21","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"A around you exists an emotional ecosystem. As you buy your coffee in the morning, the barista thinks about their date last night and as their pupils dilate, yours dilate in response. As you wait to cross the street, the person next to you taps their fingers anxiously and your heart rate increases. Whether you realize it or not, you are continuously being influenced by and influencing the emotional climate surrounding you. Human beings are experts at an incredible skill we often take for granted: understanding people's mental states. We are able to read and interpret the slightest changes in tone and body language. One essential part of this interpretation process is our unconscious urge to mimic others. We watch someone trip, and we wince as they hit the floor. Someone laughs at a joke out of earshot, and a smile tugs at the corners of our lips. While these instances can seem mundane, they highlight the fact that what we view as \"me\" often extends beyond our own bodies. Every day we experience these mysterious moments when the boundary between ourselves and others becomes blurred for just a moment. Researchers call this spillover \"emotional contagion.\" Emotional contagion is seen as a primitive and automatic form of empathy that may be the foundation for more sophisticated forms of cognitive perspective taking. How, then, do we \"catch\" another person's emotions? A well-known player in emotional contagion is our mirror neuron system (MNS) (Fig. 1). Vilayanur Ramachandran explains that when we watch someone experience an action, like being touched, a subset of our neurons responds as though we too feel that action.1 Feedback signals, however, prevent us from feeling any sensation. But without feedback signals, activating these mirror neurons can create the illusion that we are having someone else's experience. Ramachandran calls these \"Gandhi neurons\" as they \"dissolve the barrier between you and other human beings.\"1 However, the MNS is more complex than simple mimicry. When faced with the same emotional stimuli, why do some people get angry and others get scared? As we gather emotional information from the external world, the MNS helps simulate and create predictions about the world, allowing us to choose from a repertoire of default emotional responses.2,3 This process begins by simulating others' emotions through shared neural activation and a synchronization of bodily systems (Fig. 2). We can then select an appropriate emotional response and transfer emotional meaning from one person to another.4 According to this model, emotional contagion is created from a combination of autonomic and motor mimicry. The synchronization of our autonomic systems such as pupil dilation, blushing, and sweating is involved in simulating the arousal Emotional Contagion: How We Mimic the Emotions of Those Similar to Us","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":213733665,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3006326992","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.5070\/bs3241046897","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/escholarship.org\/content\/qt18j8t99b\/qt18j8t99b.pdf?t=q5jbq6","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women worldwide. Current statistics show that one in eight women will develop this disease over the course of her lifetime. Early detection increases the likelihood of overcoming the disease, motivating the implementation of screening programs. While X-ray mammography is the gold standard image modality for screening and diagnosis of breast cancer, it presents decreased sensitivity in dense breasts. Thus, other medical image modalities, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasounds, are used to overcome the limitations of the mammography. Several studies have shown that the combination of the different medical image modalities leads to a more accurate diagnosis and, therefore, a more effective medical treatment of patient diseases. However, the fusion of information among several image modalities is a challenging task, due to the differences not only in the physics underlying each modality but, also, the different patient positioning during the image acquisition. On the one hand, inner structures of the breast, such as nerves, blood vessels and ligaments, can be clearly visible in one modality but undetected in the others. On the other hand, movement restrictions, applied during the image acquisition, are completely different. The main purpose of this thesis is to evaluate the similarity among the information provided by two medical image modalities, such as the X-ray mammography and MRI, and, at the same time, to propose new algorithms to register the images in order to correlate the position of lesion and susceptible areas. To achieve this goal, we use registration algorithms and image analysis techniques. A deep review of the state-of-the-art, focusing our attention in the multimodal registration problems using patient-specific biomechanical finite-element (FE) models, is performed, from the biomechanical model construction (including the pre-processing and segmentation of MRI images, a suitable FE mesh construction as well as the methodology to quantify the accuracy and quality of the methods) to the physics underlying the mechanical deformation (elastic and hyperelastic parameters exposed in the literature, and loading forces and boundary condition) to solve the problem. Similarly, the registration algorithm and technical and medical aspects to validate the registration are exposed with the aim to bridge the gap between the engineering and the clinical performance. Finally, we include a brief state-of-the-art of software options as well as the requirements and advantages of each tool, in order to obtain a suitable simulation and an accurate solution of the problem. Our analysis begins evaluating the similarity of the glandular tissue between two mammograms from the same patient, acquired in the same day and in a short time frame. This fact allows us to evaluate the effect of the breast compression in the parenchymal pattern distribution. We use the commercial software Volpara$^{TM}$ in order to extract the glandular tissue distribution directly from full-field digital mammograms (FFDM). Afterwards, we analyze the breast volume, volume of glandular tissue and breast density values provided by the software. Regarding the density maps -i.e. the image of the glandular tissue distribution- we evaluate the information as well as the structural similarity by means of the image registration algorithms. Our results show that the information provided by Volpara$^{TM}$ is stable, independently of several acquisition factors, such as the X-ray energy spectrum or small variations in the angle of projection. However, changes in the compression -i.e. breast thickness- clearly affect the glandular tissue distribution in the image. The monomodal analysis provides us a baseline result to perform the multimodal comparison between MRI and mammography. To achieve this goal, a fully automatic framework to register Volpara$^{TM}$ Density Maps and MRI images was developed. This software uses a patient-specific biomechanical model of the breast, which mimics the mammographic compression performed during the mammographic acquisition. In this work, we propose a new methodology to project the glandular tissue directly from the MRI, avoiding the loss of information that can be yielded when the image is deformed. The evaluation of the similarity, between the real and synthetic density maps, also requires to propose a new methodology, which takes into consideration the multimodal nature of the problem. Measures and techniques from other fields such as information theory, visual perception and statistics are used in our work. Our analysis shows a high similarity between the information contained in the two modalities as well as a high structural similarity in the distribution of the glandular tissue. A visual analysis, using a checkerboard pattern, shows continuity in the longest structures of the glandular tissue. However, an aliasing effect is yielded when the glandular tissue is projected from the MRI During the registration framework evaluation we computed the target registration error (TRE) between landmarks -i.e. lesions- in both MRI and mammography. The 2D problem consists of directly projecting the landmark position from the MRI to the mammogram, computing the Euclidean distance between the computed and the real landmark position. However, locating the 3D position, within the MRI from the corresponding lesions in the mammograms, used to require complex and computational expensive methods to undo the breast compression. To solve this issue, we propose a new, fast and efficient algorithm to locate the landmark position within the MRI. Locating several rays from different mammographic projections (mainly, cranio caudal (CC) and mediolateral oblique (MLO)), the 3D landmark position can be computed as the intersection (or the center of mass of the two closest points) among the rays. Using a similar methodology to that proposed during the glandular tissue projection, a back-projection ray-tracing can be performed, allowing to locate the ray path in the uncompressed biomechanical model, avoiding to undo the breast compression. To accelerate the computation of the intersection between two rays, we propose an easy algorithm which sub-divide the rays, reducing the search space. Our model reduces the search space until 600 times with respect to a traditional point-by-point search. Thus, the computational time to locate the intersection is about $8~ms$, allowing real-time applications in the clinical practice. Furthermore, the TRE, in average, are about $1~cm$, better than those exposed in previous works. To conclude, we evaluate the capability of using other information, not only the glandular tissue (i.e. intensity), to perform the registration between the images. We focus our attention in the glandular tissue gradient. While the optimization algorithm (biomechanical model extraction and parameter optimization) is similar to our previous work, in this case the glandular tissue gradient is extracted from the mammograms and MRI images by means of image processing techniques. The MRI gradient is projected to the mammogram using two different approaches. The first one uses the accumulated directional derivative, obtaining a scalar value which is comparable to the norm of the gradients obtained from the mammograms. The second one accumulates the gradient considering each direction independently, yielding a vector which is comparable to the directional derivative obtained from the mammograms by means of a gradient correlation metric. In order to provide a fair comparison, we compare the results obtained using our methodology with a traditional intensity-based registration approach where we transform the MRI in a pseudo-Computer Tomography (pseudo-CT) image by means of a polyenergetic model instead of a traditional monoenergetic approach. Our results show an improvement in the TRE using scalar gradient values, with respect to the traditional intensity-based approach. Furthermore, we evaluate the different behavior using isotropic and anisotropic material models of the breast and we look for the correlation between the TRE and several factor of interest such as the breast glandularity and the inner landmark position. Anisotropic models shows an improvement with respect to the isotropic models, while the glandularity and the inner landmark position show a moderate correlation with respect to the TRE. Moreover, the computational time during the registration was reduced to half the time regarding our previous works. %, getting close to an acceptable value in the clinical practice. In summary, this thesis will help radiologists and physicists to better understand the variations of the glandular tissue that can be clearly visible in one modality but not in the other. Furthermore, the evaluation of the information can guide researchers to obtain more accurate segmentation algorithms, considering the partial volume effect presented in the MRI, as well as to improve the multimodal image registration between the two modalities, not only by means of intensity-based methods but also considering additional information such as gradients. Finally, our methodology includes several proposals to develop real time applications or with acceptable time values in the clinical practice.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":81589149,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2807825798","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In this research work, an attempt was made to electric discharge machining of AA7075\/SiCP\/B4CP Hybrid Composites produced through the stir casting route.\n\n\n\nThe used engine oil was as the dielectric fluid with the objective of obtaining wealth from waste. The experiments were performed by varying distinct Electric Discharge Machining (EDM) process parameters with the goal of obtaining a high Material Removal Rate (MRR), low Tool Wear Rate (TWR) and least Surface Roughness (Ra). The experimental runs were optimized using the Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) optimization techniques.\n\n\n\nExperimental runs were designed using the L20 Taguchi orthogonal array in which Powder concentration, Current and Pulse on time were varied for three different levels, and two various dielectric fluids were used for investigation. The characteristics of the Used Engine Oil (UEO) were assessed to find its feasibility as a dielectric fluid.\n\n\n\nIn comparison to EDM oil, the specimen machined in UEO dielectric medium has a somewhat greater MRR. Regardless of the kind of dielectric fluid employed, adding Al2O3 particles increases the MRR because of the bridging effect. Due to its high thermal conductivity, UEO oil produced electrodes with a TWR that was greater than that of EDM oil. The TWR decreases with the addition of Al2O3 particles due to an increase in the spark gap. In comparison to EDM oil, the specimen machined under UEO displays a lower Ra value. Ra decreases with the inclusion of Al2O3 particles due to the thorough flushing of machining waste.\n\n\n\nThe specimen machined under Al2O3 mixed UEO dielectric medium, with the process parameters tuned at 3A current and 20\u00b5s Ton, offers better machining performance and was recommended for EDM sector.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":258542049,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.2174\/2666145416666230504155532","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The quantity and the location of wear particles are detected by this method, and also it becomes clear whether the wear particles are transferred on the mating surface, or back transferred to an original test pin, or removed from the rubbed surfaces. The conclusions obtained from the experiments are summarized as follows. 1) The quantity of wear of a pin is determined as the arithmetic sum of the quantities of transfer and removal of wear particles. Namely, the difference between the rates of transfer, removal and back transfer governs the virtual rate of pin. 2) Generally, the transferred particles adhere strongly to the mating surface, consequently are not readily removed off. Moreover, the most of removal are born directly from the rubbed surface of a pin. 3) In the special conditions, a little quantity of removal of the transferred particles occurs, and it causes the marked increase in the wear loss of a pin. However, when the back transfer is predominant, it will be negative wear loss. 4) The avalanche phenomena of transferred particles occur when the quantity of transferred particles becomes over the certain limited quantity. This means the sudden decrease of the transferred wear particles.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":136971961,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2015998250","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.2493\/JJSPE1933.38.908","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Behaviour measurements were done on 200 cattle pre-slaughter and the methods by which the cattle were handled were recorded to evaluate the effect of pre-slaughter handling on their welfare. Ultimate pH24 and percent cooking loss were measured on 50 poorly-handled cattle pre-slaughter. The cattle were poorly-handled because they were beaten and, whipped. Based on pH24, meat quality was assessed as normal (pH from 5.5\u20135.8), moderate dark, firm and dry (DFD) (5.8 \u2264 pH \u2264 6.2), and DFD (pH from 6.2\u20136.7). Five hundred carcasses were visually observed for bruising in them and the number of non-ambulatory cattle slaughtered in a week was recorded. The relationship between pH24 value and cooking loss in meat from the 50 poorly-handled cattle was investigated. Behaviours exhibited by poorly-handled cattle pre-slaughter included raising of their tail, kicking, lying down and refusing to move, jumping, vocalising, panting, and charging at handlers. Also lashes\/whips, pulling of animals' tails, stamping on their tails, and hitting them with sticks, stones and ropes were among the prominent methods by which the cattle were handled. Mean pH24 and mean percent cooking loss were significant (p < 0.05) at 6.22 \u00b1 0.10 and 22.51 \u00b1 3.25, respectively, for poorly-handled cattle. There was a strong negative correlation between pH24 and percent cooking loss in poorly-handled cattle (r = \u22120.77). Out of the 500 carcasses assessed for bruising, 18% had no bruises, 60% had slight bruises while 22% had severe bruises. Ninety (90) non-ambulatory cattle were slaughtered within seven (7) days, representing 7.1% of the total number of cattle slaughtered within that period. The results indicated that handling of cattle pre-slaughter have effects on their meat quality and welfare. Eighty-two percent of the bruised carcass and 7.1% of non-ambulatory animals indicated poor meat quality. Meat quality assessment indicated that most of the meat had dark, firm and dry (DFD) tendency. The water holding capacity of the meat sampled in this study (by means of cooking loss) indicated that the meat quality was compromised.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":17493170,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1995841086","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3390\/VETSCI1030174","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Meeting cold-start emissions standards for particulate emissions and the criteria air pollutants, NO, CO and unburned hydrocarbons (HC), is critical for gasoline direct-injection spark-ignition (DISI) engines, including DISI engines in hybrid-electric powertrains. This work surveys recent strategies to reduce particulate mass (PM), particulate number (PN), NO, CO, and HC emissions during cold-start conditions. Results of studies that demonstrate progress using engine operating strategies (such as timing of fuel injection, spark-ignition, and valve events) and engine and after-treatment hardware development to mitigate and reduce cold-start engine-out and vehicle emissions are highlighted. Several methods are promising in terms of meeting more stringent cold-start emissions requirements, in particular, fuel injector design and operation have significant potential to reduce particulate emissions and advances in manufacturing can help reduce limitations from nozzle tip-wetting. Fast-heating of three-way catalysts also shows clear benefits, in addition to gasoline particulate filters to reduce vehicle PM and PN emissions. A clear challenge (and opportunity) is the dramatically larger parametric space for engine design and operation and the coupled interaction with after-treatment that should be considered to address cold-start emissions. Advances in modelling and physical experiments that allow more rapid development of DISI powertrain and after treatment systems are critical to meet future cold-start emissions requirements.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":246600143,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1177\/14680874211068576","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"At the 92 nd Annual Meeting of the Texas Society of Pathologists, William Travis, MD, of Memorial SloanKettering Cancer Center, New York, New York, received the esteemed Stembridge Award in recognition of his many years of leadership in the field of pulmonary pathology. Dr. Travis delivered 2 superb lectures on the implications of the new classification of adenocarcinoma jointly proposed by the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer, the American Thoracic Society, and the European Respiratory Society (the Stembridge Lecture at the annual meeting and a companion grand rounds at MD Anderson Cancer Center). Dr. Travis and his colleagues have contributed 2 compelling articles to the Archives of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine based on the same content as those lectures: (1) Diagnosis of Lung Cancer in Small Biopsies and Cytology: Implications of the 2011 International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer\/American Thoracic Society\/European Respiratory Society Classification and (2) Diagnosis of Lung Adenocarcinoma in Resected Specimens: Implications of the 2011 International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer\/American Thoracic Society\/European Respiratory Society Classification. Along with Elisabeth Brambilla, MD, of Grenoble, France, Dr. Travis was the leader of the World Health Organization lung cancer classification in 1999 and 2004 and is now leading a new revision that will likely incorporate the proposed classification of adenocarcinoma. This proposal is a component of the revolution in lung cancer that has occurred during the past several years. For the first time, a classification of lung cancer takes into account that 70% of all cases present in an advanced stage and, therefore, the only tissue samples obtained of the tumor are small biopsies and\/or cytology specimens. Currently, cell type (adenocarcinoma versus squamous cell carcinoma) is a basis for triaging lung cancer specimens for predictive biomarker testing, but cell subtypes are not considered, although there are some associations between subtypes and likelihood of specific biomarkers being present. Therefore, differentiation of adenocarcinoma from squamous cell carcinoma is a key aspect of the new proposal. No doubt experts will debate the merits of specific details in the proposal, but one concern at least may be lessened by recent technologic advances and we would like to briefly expound on that here. As noted by Dr. Travis and his colleagues, the very limited amount of tissue obtained for most lung cancers must be carefully rationed for use in traditional microscopic examination, immunohistochemistry studies to confirm cell type and\/or primary site, and a growing number of predictive biomarkers that are needed to determine the optimal treatment protocol. The conservation of adequate tissue for performing each of these numerous tests potentially becomes a major challenge, particularly if separate molecular assays are performed for each biomarker as has traditionally been done. Several recent advances help address the challenge of conserving tissue from small biopsies and cytology specimens. For determining cell type, antibody cocktails such as desmoglein 3 \u00fe cytokeratin 5\/napsin A or p40\/thyroid transcription factor 1 (Biocare Medical, Concord, California) allow multiple immunostains for cell type differentiation on a single slide. Molecular classification of cancers of unknown origin, for example CancerTYPE ID from bioTheranostics, San Diego, California, can be done with a few hundred cells as opposed to multiple tissue sections for several separate immunostains. Recently introduced ''next generation'' sequencing technologies help address the challenge of conserving tissue by rapidly and inexpensively generating highly multiplexed tumor genotypes with a single reaction that may require no more than 10 to 250 ng of input genomic DNA from a tumor sample. Examples include the 454 GS Junior (454 Life Sciences, Roche, Branford, Connecticut), Ion Torrent Personal Genome Machine (Ion Torrent Systems, Life Technologies, San Francisco, California), and MiSeq Personal Sequencer (Illumina Inc, San Diego, California). The MassARRAY Analyzer (Sequenom Inc, San Diego, California) uses mass spectrometry of amplified gene fragments to determine their genotype and, using novel strategies, simultaneously evaluate gene mutations and gene rearrangements in a single run.

Although several criteria must be met, this method holds promise for analysis of a wide range of analytes.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":7450135,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2003396742","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1021\/JA0431051","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Some of the antenatal care practices in developing countries particularly in low resource rural communities may be impacting negatively on the health and wellbeing of the mother and fetus.

The study explored how pregnant women in a rural community in Enugu state, Southeast Nigeria, manage their pregnancy and the associated minor disorders. The exploratory qualitative design was adopted. 110 pregnant women were purposively drawn through convenience sampling and engaged in 10 focused group discussions. The audiotaped information was transcribed, coded and emerging concepts were categorized and four themes emerged. Many participants accessed antenatal care from traditional birth attendants; they registered in the first trimester not because of perceived benefits but because of illness. Food taboos prevented the consumption of some cheap sources of protein, carbohydrate and iron and home remedies were used for treatment of minor disorders of pregnancy. The management of pregnancy by unskilled and uncertified health care providers may result in non-detection of early signs of risk factors and in poor management that may be detrimental to both the mother and the fetus. Thus antenatal care practices may be contributing to the continuing high maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality seen in Nigeria.

Introduction In the tropical area, there are paddy fields where only floating rice can be grown in the rainy season because of the deep flooding condi tions. It is estimated that these fields account for 25 to 30 % of the world rice land ,3) totalling approximately 19.9 million ha in the world .19) The elongation ability of the internodes and leaves is an indispensable character in order to enable the plant to continue to grow in deep water where the water level gradually increases to a final depth of several meters . The yield of floating rice is low, ranging one to two tons per ha,3) presumably due to the small number of panicles per plant .3) Therefore, the number of tillers per plant is an important character for improving the yield . The growth of leaves, tillers and internodes is known to be very closely interrelated .1, 2,9,1416,18,20-22,25,26) The author report ed that the process of differentiation and growth of tillers is closely related to the plant age of the main stem, which is represented by the number of leaves whose leaf blades have completely emer ged. When the nth leaf blade has just emerged, i, e. at plant age n, the nth node tiller is the most recent tiller to have already differentiated Note2) 9,18) At plant age (n+3) , the nth node tiller emerges from the subtending leaf sheath of the main stem.14,18) The present study was carried out in order to gain fundamental information on the growth of internodes, leaf blades , leaf sheaths and tillers of floating and non-floating rice varieties in deep water, with special emphasis placed on relationship between the process of growth of these organs and the developmental stages of the plants at the time when the water depth was increased.

T 136 is a non-floating rice variety from India, the seeds of which were produced and supplied by Mr. Kunio Kagawa, Agricultural and Forestry Reseach Center, University of Tsukuba. Two plants were grown each in 1\/5000 a Wagner pot containing field soil and five grams of compound fertilizer (13% N-13 % K20-13 % P2O5). The plants of each variety were treated as follows ; A) control : water depth was kept at five cm continuously, B) : 25 cm depth plot : water level was raised to 25 cm depth at the start of the treatments and the depth was kept continuously at the same level and C) 45 cm depth plot : water level was raised to 25 cm depth at the start of the treatments, raised to 35 cm depth two days later and further raised to 45 cm depth another two days later, with the depth kept at the same level afterwards. The method applied to raise the water level in the 45 cm depth plot was adapted from the Standard Scoring System for Measuring Elongation Ability of Deep-Water Rice developed by the International Rice Research Institute.13) The treatments were started at plant age eight Note 3). The seeds of T 136 were sown on June 16th, and the plants reached the plant age eight on July 11th. The seeds of KLP were sown on July 28th, the treatments being started on August 19th, when the plants reached the age of eight.

The aim of our research contribution is to compare the way of life, the habits and the self-views of adolescents attending General, Vocational and Peiramatika schools, by shedding light not only on the similarities and differences of how these groups of adolescents narrate and experience their everyday lives but also on the practical logics that organize their social worlds. What we try to tap concerns i) how institutional arrangements (school, family, class and gender), cultural values (relation to school knowledge and life ambitions) and biographical trajectories (transition from junior high school to senior high school or to work) are inscribed in their life narratives and ii) how these three levels of analysis (structure, culture and biography) shape their self-understandings and their identity claims. By drawing on Symbolic Interactionism tradition and on Bourdieu's theory of habitus, our research sets in motion a qualitative methodology having at its center the Biographical-Narrative Interview as far as data collection and data processing is concerned. After a two-year intensive field research, there seemed to emerge four types (in the Weberian sense) of adolescent social self, each of which is made up of an ambivalence that is formed in conjunction with the biographical stocks of knowledge of the social world the adolescents live in. We argue that this concept of ambivalent biographical identity can be used not only as a conceptual tool for interpreting how adolescent identity is evolved within the realms of our contradictory and perplexed era but for implementing educational policies focusing on Counseling and job guidance in secondary education","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":142599536,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1605395428","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The most active phase of the second period (Hinuera-2) occurred between 20 000 and 17 000 yr BP. Sedimentation slowed dramatically after 18000-17 000 and ceased between 14 000 and 12000 yr BP. After 14 000-12 000 yr BP the Waikato River stopped migrating across its aggrading floodplain, began downcutting, and assumed its present entrenched, meandering course.

Pollen analysis of thin peat layers within Hinuera-2 sediments enables some conclusions to be made about vegetation and climate between 20 000-18000 yr BP.

First, any help they provide to one region of the country is at the expense of several others. For instance, the recent protection of shakes and shingles produced from wood in the Northwest through an increased tariff prompted retaliation from Canada. That nation promptly increased its tariffs on a large number of agricultural and manufactured goods produced in many other regions of the United States. Second, all regions are hurt by U. S. barriers to imports. These barriers hamper the economic development of all regions by acting as a hidden drag on productivity and efficient allocation of resources. Protectionism also serves as a hidden tax on consumers, reducing the amount of income they can spend on other products. Freer trade is no guarantee of prosperity for any given region of the United States. Rather, it reduces the likelihood that any one region will suffer from the unfairness resulting from favoritism to another.

+{"text":"Civil structures begin to deteriorate once they are built and continuously accumulate damage during their service life due to natural hazard and harsh environment such as earthquake, storm, fire, long-term fatigue and corrosion. To ensure the serviceability and safety of structures, structural damage detection and integrity assessment are very necessary. This paper therefore presents novel stochastic approaches to detect damage of building structures and assess their reliability in consideration of the uncertainties involved in measurements, structures and external excitations. The study involves three major developments and applications: (1) the statistical moment-based damage detection (SMBDD) method for practical use, (2) the stochastic damage detection method for considering uncertainties, and (3) the reliability assessment method for stochastic structures. Extensive numerical and experimental investigations are conducted. The results demonstrate that the SMBDD method is not only sensitive to structural local damage but also insensitive to measurement noise. The stochastic damage detection method enables the damage identification of building structures of uncertainties or random parameters. By using the proposed reliability assessment methods, the reliability of a stochastic structure without explicit damage identification can be obtained by using limited measurement responses.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":108116481,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"163687289","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Introduction: Older cancer survivors fall more often, as disease-associated sequelae such as impaired cognitive function contribute to a higher falls risk. Cognitive dysfunction may contribute to falls and mobility; however, this relationship is not well described. The purpose of this study was to examine associations between cognitive function, gait speed, balance, and falls in older cancer survivors. Methods: A cross-sectional analysis of 573 older cancer survivors was conducted from the 2010 Health and Retirement Study wave. Groups were assigned on the basis of falls history: Falls (N = 222) or No Falls (N = 351). Groupwise comparisons on demographic, cognitive, and physical mobility variables were completed. Linear regression analyses were performed to examine associations between cognitive function (recall, orientation, executive function), gait speed, tandem balance, and falls in the sample and by group. Results: Significant between-group differences existed in demographic, cognitive function, falls, and mobility variables. Falls were inversely associated with executive function (&bgr; = \u22120.18, P < .05). Delayed recall was linearly associated with tandem stance in the whole sample (&bgr; = 0.11, P < .05). Falls history was able to detect differing relationships between gait speed and each of the cognitive processes (&bgr; = 0.11-0.17 for fallers; &bgr; = 0.11-0.22 for nonfallers), indicating the underlying influence of cognition on mobility in cancer survivors. Discussion: Different cognitive processes influence falls, balance, and mobility in the older cancer survivor, especially those with a history of falling. Assessments of balance and falls should include screening more than orientation to detect cognitive impairments that impact mobility and falls.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":149858028,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2811384273","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1097\/01.REO.0000000000000128","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The control of WBG in oil palm plantations involves various\n measures which include preventive measures (planting legume covers, maintenance of\n natural covers, mulching) and applied measures (manual and mechanised weeding, chemical\n control). The planting of legume covers and the maintenance of a less competitive\n natural cover of selected indigenous species in oil palm plantations are sound methods\n of weed management including the exclusion of noxious weeds (like WBG).

These are:\n (i) paraquat + metsulfuron methyl at 2.8 L + 75 g per hectare, (ii) glyphosate +\n metsulfuron-methyl at 1.5 L + 75 g per hectare, (iii) glufosinate-ammonium at 3 L per\n hectare, (iv) fluroxypyr at 2 L per hectare, (v) dicamba at 1.5 L per hectare and (vi)\n triclopyr at 1.5 L per hectare. In any spraying programme to eradicate thick sheet\n growth of WBG in inter-row areas, three rounds of spraying were required to achieve\n complete eradication by killing off the original weed stand and killing off any\n regeneration\/new seedlings from germination of seeds. However, the risks of crop\n phytotoxicity limits the choice of herbicide to only spraying of paraquat +\n metsulfuron-methyl at 2.8 L + 75 g per hectare and glufosinate-ammonium 3 L per hectare\n for the control of WBG and other weeds around the periphery of the immature palm during\n circle spraying. More important, careful spraying by trained operators to minimise lower\n frond contact is required. Paraquat is not available now and may be replaced with sodium\n chlorate (sodium chlorate + metsulfuron-methyl at 5.5 kg + 75 g per ha). Another\n approach can be the sequential spraying of the herbicide mixtures: two rounds of\n spraying glyphosate + metsulfuron-methyl and the third spraying with only a single\n selective broadleaf herbicide (fluroxypyr, or dicamba, or triclopyr) to kill any WBG\n regeneration in order to allow the growing of soft grasses as natural covers.

+{"text":"Ordinal response scales with a middle category are widely used in public opinion studies, psychology, medicine, computed tomography and other fields. The usual models in the statistical literature for ordinal response variables treat the case where the scale has a natural middle category no differently from the case where the scale does not have a middle category. This paper proposes new models for the analysis of ordinal response scales with middle categories, applying these to data collected in 1993\u20131994 on American opinion toward the balance between environmental quality and economic prosperity. Some of the models should also be useful when the scale does not have a natural middle category. The models are easily used to address issues of concern in empirical work\u2014for example, stochastic ordering among covariate classes and asymmetry about the middle category. Log-linear models are considered in Section 2. The relationship between the normal distribution and a quadratic log-linear model with known scores, discussed in this section, is the basis for Section 3, which considers a log-nonlinear model with unknown scores estimated from the data. Section 4 shows how generalized log-linear and generalized log-nonlinear models can be used to simultaneously study whether the response is below, at, or above the midpoint, and the conditional distribution of responses above (below) the midpoint. These models are also useful when the response scale is viewed as nested and\/or the response process is sequential.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":123168544,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2078126447","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1111\/0081-1750.00049","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"ABSTRACT \n \nA series of the biodegradable copolyester hydrogels was prepared using a redox-initiated polymerization with a constant 1:9 mole ratio of the Boltorn-based acrylate and diacrylate triblock comacromonomers. The Boltorn\u00ae macromonomer was derived from the hyperbranched polyester Boltorn H20, which was functionalized at each terminus with poly(ethylene glycol) acrylate, and the diacrylate triblock macromonomer was poly (lactide-b-ethylene glycol-b-lactide) diacrylate. The hydrolysis of the copolyesters at pH 7.4 in a phosphate buffered saline solution at 37 \u00b0C was studied using ATR-FTIR spectroscopy. It was found that the presence of the Boltorn, the PEG, and lactide block lengths both play vital roles in determining the structure-property relationships in these materials. The ATR-FTIR studies showed that with increasing lactide segment length, the rate of ester hydrolysis increased due to the increased concentration of the hydrolytically sensitive poly(lactic acid) (PLA) ester groups in the network. However, incorporation of Boltorn into the PLA-PEG-PLA copolymer did not significantly change the kinetic rate constant for hydrolysis of the PLA segments. The cytocompatibility of a typical one of these materials in the presence of its degradation by-products was assessed using cultured osteoblasts from the rat. The hydrogel was degraded for 28 days and found to be cytocompatible with osteoblasts over days 23 to 28 of the hydrolysis period.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":93751143,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2024430749","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1002\/POLA.26930","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"The kinetic energy released in unimolecular reactions, as measured from the width of the corresponding metastable peak, shows only a small dependence on such parameters as source temperature, ion-source residence time and ion acceleration voltage. Similarly, fragmenting ions generated from different members of an homologous series of molecular ions have been found to release the same kinetic energy and hence do not exhibit a degrees-of-freedom effect analogous to that for metastable abundances. In general, molecular ions formed by electron-impact have been found to release slightly less kinetic energy on fragmentation than the corresponding ions formed via a fragmentation sequence. These observations suggest that kinetic energy release is a useful method of structural characterization of metastable ions; while increase in the average internal energies of the ions sample lead to larger energy releases, this effect is usually small. The use of a very narrow energy resolving (\u03b2) slit and a procedure in which the metastable peak width is extrapolated to zero slit width has been found to improve the accuracy of measurement of the kinetic energy release, particularly when the metastable and main beam peak widths are of comparable magnitude.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":98593328,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2154657094","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1002\/OMS.1210070208","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Results The compressive strength and in vitro degradability of the mMCS\/GA\/PCL composites (MGPC) scaffolds were improved with the increase of mMCS content. In addition, the attachment and proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells on the scaffolds were significantly promoted with the increase of mMCS content. Moreover, the cells with normal phenotype attached and spread well on the scaffolds surfaces, indicating good cytocompatibility. The scaffolds were implanted into the femur defects of rabbits, and the results demonstrated that the scaffold containing mMCS stimulated new bone formation and ingrowth into the scaffolds through scaffolds degradation in vivo. Moreover, the expression of type I collagen into scaffolds was enhanced with the increase of mMCS content.

Recent evidence also indicates that retrieval practice can improve higher orders of thinking, such as the ability to critically evaluate research articles (Dobson, Linderholm and Perez, 2018) and transfer of learning (Butler, 2010). One aim of this study was to investigate the effects of retrieval practice on transfer of learning with physiology information. A second aim was to compare recall and transfer of physiology information following retrieval practice versus a judgment of learning task (JOL) that may be easier for students to utilize on their own. Participants were randomly assigned to learn three short (~500 words) physiology texts using each of the following strategies: 1. studying a text four times (SSSS), 2. studying and then retrieving a text two times (SRSR), and 3. studying a text four times while completing multiple JOL during the second and fourth repetitions (SJSJ). Recall and transfer of learning were assessed one week after the participants learned the texts, and the results were analyzed using repeated measures ANOVAs. The SRSR strategy resulted in significantly greater recall than the SSSS strategy (21.35 \u00b1 1.08 vs. 17.35 \u00b1 0.86, p<0.05), and both the SRSR and SJSJ strategies facilitated significantly greater transfer than the SSSS strategy (44.60 \u00b1 2.55 and 41.79 \u00b1 2.63, respectively, vs. 36.07 \u00b1 2.40, p<0.05).

Specifically, we show that in pricing risk premia of sub-national governments, markets are less responsive to fiscal fundamental when sub-national governments depend on high transfers from the central government, i.e., when there is some form of implicit guarantee from the center. Using primary market data, the paper also looks at whether transfer dependency from the central government influences sub-national governments' incentive to access markets. We show that high transfer dependency lowers the probability of sub-national governments to borrow on capital markets.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":167693310,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2739968333","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.5089\/9781513511061.001.A001","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Although it is widely recognized that people differ in their ability to imagine actions, objective validated tests to measure such differences are scarce. In search of an objective testing method for action imagery ability, the present study investigated whether solving mental paper-folding tasks involves action imagery. The stimuli were two-dimensional grids of six squares. A total of 99 participants mentally folded each grid into a three-dimensional cube to judge whether two highlighted lines in the grid overlapped in the imagined cube. This was done in two sessions of 214 judgements each, where the grids differed in overlaps, the least number of imagined folds, and the least number of imagined directional changes. Error rates and reaction times increased with the number of imagined folds and with the number of directional changes. Furthermore, more errors were committed with overlapping lines than with no overlaps. This was not reflected in the reaction times. Hence, the reaction times increased when the stepwise folding process was enlarged, but not when the final selection was more difficult.

+{"text":"Using cloud storage, users can remotely store their data and enjoy the on-demand high-quality applications and services from a shared pool of configurable computing resources, without the burden of local data storage and maintenance. However, the fact that users no longer have physical possession of the outsourced data makes the data integrity protection in cloud computing a formidable task, especially for users with constrained computing resources. Moreover, users should be able to just use the cloud storage as if it is local, without worrying about the need to verify its integrity. Thus, enabling public audit ability for cloud storage is of critical importance so that users can resort to a third-party auditor (TPA) to check the integrity of outsourced data and be worry free. To securely introduce an effective TPA, the auditing process should bring in no new vulnerabilities toward user data privacy, and introduce no additional online burden to user. In this paper, we propose a secure cloud storage system supporting privacy-preserving public auditing. We further extend our result to enable the TPA to perform audits for multiple users simultaneously and efficiently. Extensive security and performance analysis show the proposed schemes are provably secure and highly efficient. Our preliminary experiment conducted on Amazon EC2 instance further demonstrates the fast performance of the design. INTRODUCTION The user initializes the public and secret parameters of the system by executing Key Gen and preprocesses the data file F by using Sig Gen to generate the verification metadata. The user then store the data file F and the verification metadata at the cloud server, and deletes its local copy. As part of preprocessing, the user may alter the data file F by expanding it or including additional metadata to be stored at server. To effectively support public auditability without having to retrieve the data blocks themselves, the HLA technique can be used. HLAs like MACs are also some unforgettable verification metadata that authenticate the integrity of a data block. The difference is that HLAs can be aggregated. It is possible to compute an aggregated HLA which authenticates a linear combination of the individual data blocks. In cloud computing, outsourced data might not only be accessed but also updated frequently by users for various application purposes. Hence, supporting data dynamics for privacy-preserving public auditing is also of paramount importance. Now, we show how to build upon the existing work and adapt our main scheme to support data dynamics, including block level operations of modification, deletion, and insertion. We evaluate the security of the proposed scheme by analyzing its fulfillment of the security guarantee described namely, the storage correctness and privacy preserving property. We start from the single user case, where our main result is originated. Then, we show the security guarantee of batch auditing for the TPA in multiuser setting. Dynamic data have also attracted attentions in the recent literature on efficiently providing the integrity guarantee of remotely stored data. Ateniese is the first to propose a partially dynamic version of the prior PDP scheme, using only symmetric key cryptography but with a bounded number of audits Wang et al. consider a similar support for partially dynamic data storage in a distributed scenario with additional feature of data error localization. In a subsequent work, Wang propose to combine BLSbased HLA with MHT to support fully data dynamics. Concurrently Erwayetal develop a skip list based scheme to also enable provable data possession with full dynamics support. However, the verification in both protocols requires the linear combination of sampled blocks as an input, like the designs and thus does not support privacypreserving auditing. EXISTING SYSTEM In the Existing systems, the notion of public auditability has been proposed in the context of ensuring remotely stored data integrity under different system and security models. Public auditability allows an external party, in addition to the user himself, to verify the correctness of RESEARCH ARTICLE OPEN ACCESS International Journal of Engineering Research and Applications (IJERA) ISSN: 2248-9622 NATIONAL CONFERENCE on Developments, Advances & Trends in Engineering Sciences (NCDATES09 th & 10 th January 2015) CMR Engineering College 8|P a g e remotely stored data. However, most of these schemes do not consider the privacy protection of users' data against external auditors. Indeed, they may potentially reveal user's data to auditors. This severe drawback greatly affects the security of these protocols in cloud computing. From the perspective of protecting data privacy, the users, who own the data and rely on TPA just for the storage security of their data, do not want this auditing process introducing new vulnerabilities of unauthorized information leakage toward their data security. DRAWBACKS OF EXISTING SYSTEM: \uf0fc Although the infrastructures under the cloud are much more powerful and reliable than personal computing devices, they are still facing the broad range of both internal and external threats for data integrity. \uf0fc Second, there do exist various motivations for CSP to behave unfaithfully toward the cloud users regarding their outsourced data status. \uf0fc In particular, simply downloading all the data for its integrity verification is not a practical solution due to the expensiveness in I\/O and transmission cost across the network. Besides, it is often insufficient to detect the data corruption only when accessing the data, as it does not give users correctness assurance for those unaccessed data and might be too late to recover the data loss or damage. \uf0fc Encryption does not completely solve the problem of protecting data privacy against third-party auditing but just reduces it to the complex key management domain. Unauthorized data leakage still remains possible due to the potential exposure of decryption keys. PROPOSED SYSTEM In this paper, we utilize the public key based homomorphic authenticator and uniquely integrate it with random mask technique to achieve a privacy-preserving public auditing system for cloud data storage security while keeping all above requirements in mind. To support efficient handling of multiple auditing tasks, we further explore the technique of bilinear aggregate signature to extend our main result into a multi-user setting, where TPA can perform multiple auditing tasks simultaneously. Extensive security and performance analysis shows the proposed schemes are provably secure and highly efficient. We also show how to extent our main scheme to support batch auditing for TPA upon delegations from multi-users. BENEFITS OF PROPOSED SYSTEM: 1. Public auditability: to allow TPA to verify the correctness of the cloud data on demand without retrieving a copy of the whole data or introducing additional online burden to the cloud users. 2. Storage correctness: to ensure that there no exists of cheating in cloud server that can pass the TPA's audit without indeed storing users' data intact. 3. Privacy preserving: to ensure that the TPA cannot derive users' data content from the information collected during the auditing process. 4. Batch auditing: to enable TPA with secure and efficient auditing capability to cope with multiple auditing delegations from possibly large number of different users simultaneously 5. Lightweight: to allow TPA to perform auditing with minimum communication and computation overhead. IMPLEMENTATION Implementation is the stage of the project when the theoretical design is turned out into a working system. Thus it can be considered to be the most critical stage in achieving a successful new system and in giving the user, confidence that the new system will work and be effective. The implementation stage involves careful planning, investigation of the existing system and it's constraints on implementation, designing of methods to achieve changeover and evaluation of changeover methods.

Dynamic data operation support: To allow the clients to perform block level operations on the data files while maintaining the same level of data correctness assurance. The design should be as efficient as possible so as to ensure the seamless integration of public auditability and dynamic data operation support.

The subsidence rate in the area, naturally a few mm year\u22121, increased dramatically after World War II because of groundwater and natural gas extraction, exceeding 110\u202fmm year\u22121 and resulting in cumulative drops larger than 1.5\u202fm. The Montone\u2013Ronco river system flows in the southern portion of the area, which is protected against frequent flooding by levees. We performed two-dimensional simulations of inundation events associated with levee breaching by considering four different terrain configurations: current topography and a reconstruction of ground elevations before anthropogenic land subsidence, both neglecting and representing the main linear infrastructures (e.g. roads, artificial channels). Results show that flood-hazard changes due to anthropogenic land subsidence (e.g. significant changes in computed water depth and velocity) are observed over less than 10% of the study area and are definitely less important than those resulting from construction of the linear infrastructures.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":135039857,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2765815402","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1080\/02626667.2017.1390315","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/www.tandfonline.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1080\/02626667.2017.1390315?needAccess=true","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

These spaces can be considered synchronous accountability forums, where the rendering of accounts and the attribution of responsibilities can co-occur, raising concerns for the responsible parties about possible accountability models. This qualitative and interpretative research analyzed the dynamics of public budget hearings organized by Brazilian municipalities using semi-structured interviews with public managers. The results indicate that those responsible for public hearings adopt strategies minimizing reputational and accountability risks at different times: (i) in the preparation stage, with the definition of participation rules and the use of an informational filter; (ii) during execution, in the form of the presentation of information and in directing the public's attention; and, (iii) in the post-hearing stage, through low transparency and document manipulation. The research contributes to understanding hearings as forums of expected accountability, in which the expectation of the authorities can direct the dynamics of public hearings, transforming them into a theater performance.

+{"text":"We study the evolution of cooperation as a birth-death process in spatially extended populations. The benefit from the altruistic behavior of a cooperator is implemented by decreasing the death rate of its direct neighbors. The cost of cooperation is the increase of a cooperator's death rate proportional to the number of its neighbors. When cooperation has higher cost than benefit, cooperators disappear. Then the dynamics reduces to the contact process with defectors as the single particle type. Increasing the benefit-cost ratio above 1, the extinction transition of the contact process splits into a set of nonequilibrium transitions between four regimes when increasing the baseline death rate $p$ as a control parameter: (i) defection only, (ii) coexistence, (iii) cooperation only, (iv) extinction.

Qualitatively identical phase diagrams are obtained for populations on square lattices and in pair approximation.

+{"text":"Purpose: Patellar bracing is a common, mechanical-based treatment strategy for patellofemoral osteoarthritis (OA). It is thought that the brace corrects patellar tracking, however, this correction has not been quantified in the OA population. Through advances in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), we can now assess patellar tracking in three-dimensions. Method: We assessed three-dimensional patellar tracking in ten subjects with symptomatic radiographic patellofemoral knee OA using a validated, quasi-static, MRI-based method. Four conditions were studied: no knee brace, no load, no knee brace, 15% bodyweight (BW) load, knee brace, no load, knee brace, 15% BW load. Patellar tracking (flexion, spin and tilt; proximal, lateral and anterior translation) was assessed. Comparisons were made at 1\u00b0 increments over the coincidental range of knee flexion between the no-brace and brace conditions, at no load and 15% BW load, using a paired t-test with Bonferroni correction. Results: All subjects (7 female, 3 male, 60.9\u00b11.3 yrs, 89.5\u00b119.3 kg) had radiographic lateral patellofemoral OA and seven had concomitant tibiofemoral OA (KL grade\u22652). Under no load, the brace extended (mean=2.7\u00b0, CI=[2.4\u00b0, 2.9\u00b0], P Conclusion: The brace extended the patellae for both loading conditions, suggesting that patellar flexion\/extension is restricted by the brace. The brace tilted the patellae medially under no load only, suggesting when the quadriceps are active (15% BW load) the brace has little effect for tilt. While the effect of bracing on patellar tracking may appear small, the differences are of similar magnitude to those observed between normals and patients with patellofemoral pain, suggesting that braces may produce clinically significant changes in patellar tracking.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":79082752,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2503374484","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The phenotypic variation and diversity in some representative traits in natural populations are poorly understood. To investigate phenotypic variation, diversity and their relationship with geoclimatic factors, we evaluated 21 traits of 97 sampled individuals from seven natural populations. Coefficient of variation for 21 traits widely ranged from 0.05 (shape index of fruit) to 0.62 (water content of dry kernel), with an average of 0.18. The Shannon\u2013Wiener indices ranged from 1.91 (water content of dry kernel) to 2.06 (leaf length and leaf width), with an average of 1.94. The variation of 20 traits was significantly influenced by the population effect (p < 0.05). The 21 traits were reduced to six principal components, which collectively accounted for 86.64% of the total phenotypic variation. The seven population was mainly divided into two groups: Group I, which included four populations distributed throughout the southern region and having wider and shorter leaves, larger fruit transverse diameters, and higher content of fatty acid and nervonic acid in the kernel, and Group II included the left populations with relative opposite characteristics to those in Group I. Trees with shorter leaves tend to produce oblate shape and heavier dried kernel, yielding more fatty acid and nervonic acids, and population-level pairwise kernel morphological distance were positively correlated with fatty acid distance (Mantel r = 0.39, p < 0.05). Annual average humidity was strongly positively correlated with leaf index (length\/width, r = 0.78) but had a negative correlation with the kernel dry weight (r = \u22120.84). The shape of the kernel gradually altered from oblate to globose as longitude and rainfall increased. The environment became colder as latitude increased, resulting in a steady decrease in fatty acid content. No significant isolation by climatic and geographical distance was found for morphological and fatty acid variability. These results can have an important implication for genetic improvement, diversity conservation and resource management of the species in the future.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":253071277,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3390\/f13101733","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/1999-4907\/13\/10\/1733\/pdf?version=1666265766","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Grand Isle is part of a barrier-island chain along the coast of southeastern Louisiana. It separates the estuarine environment of Barataria Bay from the marine environment of the Gulf of Mexico. The island is 7\u00bd mi long and about \u00bd mi wide. Mechanical analyses of 102 surface samples indicate that the island is composed of fine-grained terrigenous sand, silt, and clay, with a minor percentage of shell material. Median grain diameters range from 0.166 mm for beach sands to 0.005 mm for isolated clay pockets of the back-island area. Grain-size isopleth maps demonstrate a parallelism of grain-size characteristics with sedimentary features and environments such as the beach, dunes, ridges, and interridges. They also demonstrate an increase in the size of beach sand on the southwest. Beach and dune sands are well sorted. Ridge and interridge sediments contain a higher percentage of silt and clay and exhibit poorer sorting. Organic content of representative sediment samples ranges from 0.20 to 9.08%. The high oxidation environments of the beach and dunes generally have the lowest organic content. Carbonate content in the form of shell material ranges up to 4.2% with the smaller grain-size sediments generally having a higher carbonate content. The subsurface stratigraphy was studied using 127 soil-boring logs. All strata found by the borings (to a maximum depth of 320 ft) were Holocene sand and clay. The oxidized Pleistocene contact is interpreted to be at a depth of 400 ft as determined by deeper borings on nearby islands. Four Holocene sands are recognized in this subsurface section. The deepest sand, interpreted to be a Holocene transgressive unit, is 120-170 ft thick. The maximum thickness of 3 shallower sands is 43 ft, and the average thickness is 10-20 ft. The three upper sands are fine to very fine grained. The deepest sand is fine to coarse grained. Typical silty prodelta clays and highly plastic offshore clays are found between the sand beds. The Grand Isle beach has an average seaward slope of 2\u00bd\u00b0. A low dune ridge runs almost continuously behind the beach. Approximately 25 sets of relict beach and dune ridges can be identified behind the active dunes. These sets trend nearly parallel with each other and with the present beach. The ridges are 35-100 ft wide and are 3 ft or less high. The sediments to a depth of 100 ft are interpreted to be related to deltaic progradation of the ancestral Mississippi River. This deltaic progradation began about 5,600 years ago when sea level reached a stillstand. The Lafourche delta formed west of Grand Isle about 2,000 years ago. As wave action attacked the delta front, sediment was carried northeastward by littoral currents. A barrier spit was constructed in the mouth of Barataria Bay. The barrier spit was eventually breached by a narrow tidal channel. From this original nucleus island, Grand Isle has grown by beach and dune-ridge accretions.

There are two ways to increase the number of objects \/ data which could be \"used\" better by those who are looking for them in the EUROPEANA portal. EUROPEANA should consider how to present the objects \/ data DANS is holding. These indeed may contain copyright, but are, after registration, nonetheless often available. The label \"No re-use\" is then too strong. Despite the fact that copy- or database-rights might remain reserved, personal use and limited citation of the content is mostly possible. Only (re-)distribution or remixing remain excluded. However, and in addition to this, permission can always be requested for doing the latter. One could say that, by labelling too strict, EUROPEANA restricts too strongly, and unnecessarily, the (re-)use of some of the objects it refers to in its portal. EUROPEANA could enlarge its use scope certainly by changing the labels in these cases. \u2022DANS, on the other hand, should try to increase the number of objects \/ data under the CC0 Waiver.

Second, the Transcendental Aesthetic claims that the representation of infinite space belongs to sensibility, but the third Critique seems to argue, instead, that infinity is an Idea of reason. This paper resolves these apparent contradictions by noting that Kant groups his various conceptions of space into three kinds: (1) merely subjectively given space, (2) objectively given space, and (3) objective space as a mere Idea. Attending to these three conceptions of space illustrates that the Transcendental Aesthetic, First Antinomy, and third Critique refer to different conceptions of infinite space and thus do not contradict one another, illuminating the importance of Kant's various conceptions of space for his critical project.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":252763526,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1353\/hph.2022.0056","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

As a transitional ecosystem, urban wetlands have important ecological functions such as regulation, buffering and filtration in the city. Therefore, construction of urban wetland parks has important ecological functions to the health of ecosystems, such as water storage, flood control, drought prevention, control of water and soil, climate regulation, and increasing species diversity. The construction of an urban wetland park not only provides a place for science education, rest, and entertainment to public, but also protects the existing wetland and improves the quality of urban environment. It's also important to understand the performance of the wetland system. Nevertheless, over the past years, there's no evaluation system has been established. This paper developed a comprehensive evaluation system and determined the weight value for each evaluation index by questionnaires and AHP software. Furthermore, this paper took Harbin Qunli National Wetland as an example to conduct a practical evaluation of its wetland performance. The data to support the evaluation indexes were obtained through a combination of literature review, field investigation, lab test and mathematical modeling methodologies.

+{"text":"This thesis deals with empirical methods to construct low-order deterministic dynamical systems. An overview about the application of known reduction strategies for 2d barotropic systems is given. An EOF based method is used to construct an independent model of the streamfunction field at 500hPa of the primitive equation general circulation model ECHAM5. This process uses only original model data, the knowledge of the underlying model's time evolution equations is not required. The results and properties of the model are discussed. It is found that the system is highly sensitive to the quality of the parameters of the dynamical system. It requires a huge amount of data to reliably fit time evolution parameters in chaotic systems. These inherent difficulties of numerical reduction methods are shown with respect to ECHAM5 and to the Lorenz model. Further simplifications of the dynamical system are attempted to reduce the number of parameters. A general framework is proposed to validate the quality of empirically derived reduced models without model bias. mean and the mean state of our reduced model are errors of the model dynamics, not of the representation. The last picture shows the distribution of the error between the model mean and the original. It can be seen that the reduced model overestimates the mean field of the streamfunction consistently. There are two areas with a high relative error: the Arctic (Greenland), and the north western part of the Pacific.

+{"text":"ABSTRACT Live attenuated influenza vaccines in the United States are derived from a human virus that is temperature sensitive (ts), characterized by restricted (\u2265100-fold) replication at 39\u00b0C. The ts genetic signature (ts sig) has been mapped to 5 loci in 3 genes: PB1 (391E, 581G, and 661T), PB2 (265S), and NP (34G). However, when transferred into avian and swine influenza viruses, only partial ts and attenuation phenotypes occur. To investigate the reason for this, we introduced the ts sig into the human origin virus A\/WSN\/33 (WSN), the avian-origin virus A\/Vietnam\/1203\/04 (VN04), and the swine origin triple-reassortant 2009 pandemic H1N1 virus A\/California\/07\/2009 (CA07), which contains gene segments from human, avian, and swine viruses. The VN04 ts sig and CA07 ts sig viruses replicated efficiently in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells at 39\u00b0C, but the replication of WSN ts sig was restricted \u2265100-fold compared to that at 33\u00b0C. Reassortant CA07 ts sig viruses were generated with individual polymerase gene segments from WSN, and vice versa. Only ts sig viruses with a PB2 gene segment derived from WSN were restricted in replication \u2265100-fold at 39\u00b0C. In ferrets, the CA07 ts sig virus replicated in the upper and lower respiratory tract, but the replication of a reassortant CA07 ts sig virus with a WSN PB2 gene was severely restricted in the lungs. Taken together, these data suggest that the origin of the PB2 gene segment influences the ts phenotype in vitro and attenuation in vivo. This could have implications for the design of novel live vaccines against animal origin influenza viruses. IMPORTANCE Live attenuated influenza vaccines (LAIVs) on temperature-sensitive (ts) backbones derived from animal origin influenza viruses are being sought for use in the poultry and swine industries and to protect people against animal origin influenza.

Our data indicate this is associated with the presence of a PB2 gene segment derived from an avian influenza virus. We show that a reassortant 2009 pandemic H1N1 virus with the ts signature from a licensed LAIV donor virus is ts in vitro and attenuated in vivo when the PB2 gene is derived from a human origin virus but not from an avian virus.

The new analyses were requested in order to provide confidence that the initial analytical subsample was representative of the Tank 40 sample received and to replicate the S results obtained on the initial subsample collected. The ICP-AES analyses for S were examined with both axial and radial detection of the sulfur ICP-AES spectroscopic emission lines to ascertain if there was any significant difference in the reported results. The outcome of this second subsample of the Tank 40 WAPS material is the first subject of this report. After examination of the data from the new subsample of the SB7b WAPS material, a team of DWPF and SRNL staff looked for ways to address the question of whether there was in fact insoluble S that was not being accounted for by ion chromatography (IC) analysis. The question of how much S is reaching the melter was thought best addressed by examining a DWPF Slurry Mix Evaporator (SME) more\u00a0\u00bb Product sample, but the significant dilution of sludge material, containing the S species in question, that results from frit addition was believed to add additional uncertainty to the S analysis of SME Product material. At the time of these discussions it was believed that all S present in a Sludge Receipt and Adjustment Tank (SRAT) Receipt sample would be converted to sulfate during the course of the SRAT cycle. A SRAT Product sample would not have the S dilution effect resulting from frit addition, and hence, it was decided that a DWPF SRAT Product sample would be obtained and submitted to SRNL for digestion and sample preparation followed by a round-robin analysis of the prepared samples by the DWPF Laboratory, F\/H Laboratories, and SRNL for S and sulfate.

Broadly tunable solid state lasers are required for applications such as LIDAR where multi-wavelength measurements can determine size, shape and distribution of atmospheric aerosols.

To fill this spectral gap for LIDAR applications, we have developed and evaluated LiF:F\/sub 2\/\/sup +\/ room temperature color center lasers pumped by 532 nm radiation. Since 532 nm matches the absorption bands of both F\/sub 2\/ and F\/sub 2\/*, the pump light is used to simultaneously create the laser active F\/sub 2\/\/sup +\/ (by the two-step F\/sub 2\/\/spl rarr\/F\/sub 2\/*\/spl rarr\/F\/sub 2\/\/sup *\/ process) and excite the F\/sub 2\/\/sup +\/ centers.

To impute the missing attributes, existing methods isolate the learning processes of attribute and structure information embeddings, and force both resultant representations to align with a common in-discriminative normal distribution, leading to inaccurate imputation. To tackle these issues, we propose a novel graph-oriented imputation framework called initializing then refining (ITR), where we first employ the structure information for initial imputation, and then leverage observed attribute and structure information to adaptively refine the imputed latent variables. Specifically, we first adopt the structure embeddings of attribute-missing samples as the embedding initialization, and then refine these initial values by aggregating the reliable and informative embeddings of attribute-observed samples according to the affinity structure. Specially, in our refining process, the affinity structure is adaptively updated through iterations by calculating the sample-wise correlations upon the recomposed embeddings. Extensive experiments on four benchmark datasets verify the superiority of ITR against state-of-the-art methods.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":250632159,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.24963\/ijcai.2022\/485","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/www.ijcai.org\/proceedings\/2022\/0485.pdf","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

A marked increase in the apparent specific heat of the composite material over its pure concrete counterpart is easily obtained.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":134787959,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"118557973","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"SummaryA new design of an evaporimeter incorporating a physical model of a hypostomatous leaf with zero stomatal resistance is described. The new design uses the lid of a plastic petri- dish to provide a robust and rigid 'lamina' for the leaf-model but this potentially weakens the analogy with a real leaf. Comparisons of evaporation rates from four different designs of leaf-model indicated that sensitivity to wetting of the upper surface was reduced by the thermal resistance associated with the petri-dish lid. The performance of the instrument is discussed in relation to the concept of potential transpiration from individual leaves (as distinct from the potential evapotranspiration from a crop canopy) and its application to studies of environments for rooting cuttings.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":131160524,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2329052105","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1080\/00221589.1991.11516135","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"This paper applies a novel analysis technique to examine the impact of frequency offset estimation errors on a single-carrier system equipped with a pilot (or preamble) sequence to estimate the frequency offset and the channel and operating over an ISI channel. The analysis shows that when certain conditions are achieved, the equalizer output is a heterodyned version of the equalizer output when no frequency offset is present. This observation motivated the inclusion of a PLL to track out the frequency offset at the equalizer output. As a byproduct of the analysis, a criterion defining \"frequency offset optimized\" pilot sequences was developed. Simulation results using QPSK show that a 1 dB loss in BER performance occurs when the frequency offset error is 0:002 cycles\/symbol. This was contrasted with a purely feedforward approach that required a more complex frequency offset estimator whose error is three orders of magnitude smaller. The example demonstrates how the addition of a relatively simple PLL at the equalizer output can relax the strict performance requirements of the frequency offset estimator.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":26752531,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2566456896","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/MILCOM.2016.7795509","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Information Technology (IT) decision makers, who leverage COTS applications, are regularly faced with the challenge of upgrading to the latest version of their COTS products. Microsoft, as well as other vendors, are releasing upgrades to their products every 18-24 months, each purported to be full of new \"features\" and capabilities. Every new release represents another IT decision and investment for the organization. There are advantages and disadvantages of using COTS applications. Many of these disadvantages surface when new software versions are released by vendors. As a result, IT decision makers typically employ general strategies that are not based on clear, well-defined decision attributes which, in turn, place the organization at risk. In addition, currently available COTS decision models do not specifically address same vendor, versionto-version upgrade decisions. This research effort proposes as set of 25 specific decision attributes and their values, organized into 9 categories, which are considered key considerations for same vendor, version-to-version COTS application upgrades. These proposed attributes are based on research and literature reviews that contribute to same vendor, version-to-version upgrade decisions. Finally, this paper ends with recommendations for further research in this subject area. This paper will build on existing research and literature to enumerate the challenges faced by IT decision makers and why current approaches are inadequate. This paper is organized into the following sections: Section 1 will describe the advantages and disadvantages of using COTS applications. Section 2 will describe the challenges current IT decision makers face. Section 3 will describe strategies and their limitations associated with same vendor, version-to-version upgrades.

For this scenario, the paper explores the trade-off between the redundancies allocated to the packet-level erasure code and the channel code, along with an objective of a low probability of failure to recover the message. \nTo this end, we consider a fading model that we term proportional-diversity block fading (PD block fading). For a fixed overall code rate and transmit power, we formulate an optimization problem to numerically find the optimal channel-coding rate (and thus the optimal erasure-coding rate) that minimizes the probability of failure for various approximations of the problem. \nFurthermore, an interpretation of the results from an incremental redundancy point of view shows how rate-compatibility affects the possible trajectories of the failure probability as a function of the overall code rate. Our numerical results suggest that an optimal, rateless, hybrid coding scheme for a single-user wireless system over the PD block-fading channel should have the rate of the erasure code approach one.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":5538227,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2270143666","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":"1602.00761"},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Abstract A recently established cell line from Atlantic salmon head kidney, SHK-1, was characterised with respect to phenotypic and functional properties. The cell line was derived from a macrophage-enriched cell culture. Proliferating cells appeared after several weeks in culture, but did not resemble macrophages. The cells were flattened and elongated with a variable morphology. Subcultured cells had a more homogeneous morphology. No reactivity for alkaline phosphatase was observed in cytocentrifuge preparations of SHK-1 cells, while strong to moderate reactivity was detected for acid phosphatase, non-specific esterase, Mg2+-dependent adenosine triphosphatase and 5\u2032 nucleotidase. The SHK-1 cells reacted with monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) directed against human cytokeratin and porcine vimentin. No reaction was observed after staining with MAbs against Atlantic salmon and rainbow trout serum immunoglobulins (Ig). The cells reacted strongly with MAbs directed against Atlantic salmon peripheral blood leucocytes but not with a MAb specific for Atlantic salmon polymorphonuclear leucocytes. The SHK-1 cells did not endocytose protein ligands which are recognised by the scavenger, mannose- and galactose-specific receptors.

Research design and methods: S100B was measured in serum samples obtained at 3 and 6 hours after the injury. Adjusted odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) associated with demographics and clinical predictors of positive CT scan were calculated. Sensitivity, specificity, negative and positive predictive values were also calculated for S100B levels. Main outcomes and results: It was found that the presence of loss of consciousness (OR = 2.3; 95% CI = 1.00\u20134.01; p = 0.008) and post-traumatic vomiting \u2265 2 episodes (OR = 1.8; 95% CI = 1.08\u20133.29; p = 0.019) are factors associated with positive CT scan.

+{"text":"Saved and Sanctified: The Rise of a Storefront Church in Great Migration Philadelphia. By Deidre Helen Crumbley. History of African-American Religions series. Gainesville, Fla.: University of Florida Press, 2012. xi + 210 pp. $75.00 (cloth); $22.95 (paper).Generations of mainstream Christians have rejected storefront churches as anti-intellectual, escapist, and primitivist, at best. Deidre Helen Crumbley, professor of Africana studies at North Carolina State University, contributes Saved and Sanctified to a slowly growing body of scholarly literature that explores storefront congregations, showing that in their own right they are important expressions of the Christian faith (see, for example, Frances Kostarelos, Feeling the Spirit: Faith and Hope in an Evangelical Black Storefront Church and Cheryl J. Sanders, Saints in Exile: The HolinessPentecostal Experience in African American Religion and Culture).Crumbley, a theologian who holds an M.T.S. in the history of religions from Harvard Divinity School and an anthropologist with a Ph.D. from Northwestern, discloses in the introduction that she grew up in The Church, so called by its members, in North Philadelphia. Her family and friends continue to attend the sanctified, Sabbatarian congregation. She looks at it, therefore, as an \"observant participant,\" rather than the more detached \"participant observer\" (p. 9).The Church grew out of the Great Migration. Most of the founding saints, whose stories fill one chapter, fled the poverty, racism, and violence of the Jim and Jane Crow South during the early part of the twentieth century, when Mother Brown founded The Church in Philadelphia. The storefront offered a refuge from white Philadelphia's discrimination and the inner city's vices. In contrast to their lives \"in the world,\" the saints treated one another with respect and were able to use their God-given talents in The Church. Elder Beverly, for example, a high school valedictorian who had wanted to teach high school but had to work as a domestic, taught the Bible to young people (p. 145). It would be an error, though, to see The Church only as a refuge.Crumbley reveals the congregation to be a deeply faithful people, who thoughtfully and prayerfully seek to live God's Word. The Sabbatarian congregation worships on Saturday because, according to their reading of scripture, specifically Isaiah 58:13, there is no biblical warrant otherwise. Far from being legalistic, as some contend, they know that only the grace of Christ forgives and restores, if and when they fail to keep the biblical law. The saints model their lives inside and outside of The Church upon Jesus, a Jew, who came to \"fulfill\" the law (Matt. 5:17) (p. 113).If the saints seek to emulate Jesus, it is the Holy Ghost who empowers them to be faithful followers - keeping the law, walking in holiness, and loving all persons. This Holy Ghost power makes worship a joyful encounter with God and stirs the saints at times to dance, shout, and speak in tongues, which is a sign of their salvation (p. \u2026","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":141767577,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1492502106","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Electrochemical intercalation of lithium into carbons has been studied using mesophase-pitch-based carbon fibers with different heat-treatment temperatures, coke, and graphites as anodes for secondary lithium batteries. The variations in the average layer spacing and the voltage profile for the carbons with intercalating depend on the degree of graphitization. The intercalation into a more disordered carbon fiber heated at 900 C has been characterized as intercalation into the layer structure for 0 < x < 0.5 in Li{sub x}C{sub 6}, but additional lithium insertion into an unorganized carbon loses the layer structure. The polarization resistance (R{sub p}) estimated from the impedance spectrum decreased by increasing degree of graphitization. The variation in R{sub p} with intercalation revealed the intercalation processes in various disordered carbons to be single-phase reactions with different stoichiometries of lithium intercalation. The chemical diffusion coefficient D{sub Li} of lithium ions in carbons decreased by increasing the composition x in Li{sub x}C{sub 6} up to x = 0.5. The chemical diffusion coefficient was considerably affected by the texture and the degree of graphitization of the carbons. The graphitized carbon fiber heated at 3,000 C for 0.1 < x < 0.5 in Li{sub x}C{sub 6} exhibited one order magnitude larger valuesmore\u00a0\u00bb of D{sub Li} than those of graphites.

+{"text":"The rapid development of non-parametric machine learning methods, such as random forest (RF), extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), and the light gradient boosting machine (LightGBM), provide new methods to predict the site index (SI). However, few studies used these methods for SI modeling of Masson pine, and there is a lack of comparison of model performances. The purpose of this study was to compare the performance of different modeling approaches and the variability between models with different variables. We used 84 samples from the Guangxi Tropical Forestry Experimental Centre. Five-fold cross-validation was used and linear regression models were established to assess the relationship between the dominant height of the stand and different types of variables. The optimal model was used to predict the SI. The results show that the LightGBM model had the highest accuracy. The root mean square error (RMSE) was 3.4055 m, the relative RMSE (RMSE%) was 20.95, the mean absolute error (MAE) was 2.4189 m, and the coefficient of determination (R2) was 0.5685. The model with climatic and soil chemical variables had an RMSE of 2.7507 m, an RMSE% of 17.18, an MAE of 2.0630 m, and an R2 of 0.6720. The soil physicochemical properties were the most important factors affecting the SI, whereas the ability of the climatic factors to explain the variability in the SI in a given range was relatively low. The results indicate that the LightGBM is an excellent SI estimation method. It has higher efficiency and prediction accuracy than the other methods, and it considers the key factors determining site productivity. Adding climate and soil chemical variables to the model improves the prediction accuracy of the SI and the ability to evaluate site productivity.

+{"text":"In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), sink node mobility has been considered an efficient way to alleviate excessive data forwarding at nodes close to the sink node. Since the mobile sinks (or collectors) move around the network collecting data from the sensor nodes, the need for multi-hop forwarding of sensor data is reduced. In WSNs with mobile collectors, efficient path planning of mobile collectors is a major challenge where many algorithms have been proposed. However, they do not consider tracking performance degradation during flight due to environmental factors such as wind, waves, and obstacles. Tracking control algorithms have been proposed to correct the paths of mobile collectors, but existing work do not consider the possibility of collisions between multiple collectors. In this paper, we propose a distributed control approach that can improve tracking performance of mobile collectors while avoiding collisions in unknown and uncertain WSN environments. The proposed algorithm uses a potential field of attraction and repulsion to control individual mobile collector input, which enables mobile collectors to adjust their trajectories with online learning in a distributed fashion. From the theoretical analysis, the upper bound of tracking error and the conditions of the system parameters to guarantee the desired tracking error set by the operator are derived. The simulation results show that the proposed method significantly outperforms existing methods in terms of tracking error, collision rate, system stability, and convergence.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":245937508,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/TVT.2022.3142747","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Considering the complex anatomical structure of the heart, single task is difficult to provide abundant segmentation information. In this work, we propose a novel multi-task learning network for CT whole heart segmentation. The framework contains two task branches, coarse-grained segmentation task and fine-grained segmentation task. To learn more useful information, two decoders are designed independently, and they predict fine-grained segmentation results and coarse-grained segmentation results, separately. Coarse-grained segmentation as an auxiliary task, its label contains the prior information of the anatomical structure to assist the learning of fine-grained segmentation tasks. Meanwhile, a shared encoder is used to extract features to realize knowledge reuse for two tasks. Besides, according to the characteristics of CT images, we design a set of suitable image pre-processing method.

+{"text":"On October 5, 2015, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development published the final package of 15 actions under the BEPS initiative. This package, in particular, includes the Final Report on Action 6 \u2013 'Preventing the granting of treaty benefits in inappropriate circumstances', which is intended to provide countries with the 'minimum level of protection against treaty abuse'. To that end, the principal purpose test (so-called 'PPT' rule) is to be implemented into double tax treaties. \n \nIn general, although the BEPS proposal is soft law and cannot take precedence over EU law, it nonetheless has been committed to gradual implementation by the Member States and thus may cause a number of problems. In particular, BEPS actions and EU law, namely fundamental freedoms might be intrinsically difficult to reconcile. The EU freedoms are the cornerstone of the single market and aim at securing free movements to ensure neutrality between domestic and cross-border transactions, while BEPS rules seek to counteract aggressive tax planning schemes that naturally cannot be used in domestic situations. Therefore, should BEPS actions were implemented, they would impose a restrictive or discriminatory tax treatment on cross-border transactions merely because they involve more than one state. In this respect, the PPT provision proposed under BEPS Action 6 is not an exception. \n \nIn this master thesis, the author continues the discussion on BEPS and its compatibility with EU law, focusing specifically on the PPT rule. The major research question is whether a Member State could implement the proposed rule into its double tax treaties in compliance with EU law. In addition, the PPT formula chosen by the European Commission in the recently released Anti-tax avoidance package is also analyzed. \n \nThe author deduces that the PPT rule frustrates the exercise of the freedom of establishment and\/or free movement of capital. Further, considering the Court of Justice of the European Union's case law, this restriction is unlikely to be justified by the overriding reason of public interest. What is more, it has been shown that even supposing that the PPT is justified, neither the BEPS proposal nor the European Commission's recommendation fulfils the requirements of the principle of proportionality. \n \nAs a conclusion remark, the present research stresses that in order to be consistent with EU law, the Member States are to consider the PPT carefully before implementing either BEPS proposal or European Commission's recommendation.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":156201277,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2429348974","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Urinalysis is a routine screening and diagnostic tool used to identify infections including renal, urological, liver disease, diabetes mellitus and urinary tract infection (UTI). Urinalysis can be used to screen, glucose, leucocytes, nitrite and blood. Although urinalysis is an effective screening tool it should not be used in isolation to guide treatment because false positives, for example, nitrites, and false negatives, for example, glucose, can occur if the sample is contaminated or left to stand for too long. UTI is among the leading reasons for treatment in adult primary care medicine, accounting for a considerable percentage of antibiotic prescriptions.

+{"text":"Tidal streams are an important foraging habitat for several species of marine top predator. This foraging habitat is potentially vulnerable to alteration from the construction of tidal stream turbines such as those currently being installed within the Pentland Firth's Inner Sound. Tidal turbines may affect inshore habitat or prey distribution by shifting tidal flow patterns, altering benthic composition and forming reefs. However, different species will be affected to varying extents based upon their foraging niche. A variety of foraging niches may exist within a species' population leading to the extent of impacts varying between individuals. The inshore diving black guillemot Cepphus grylle has been identified as one such species vulnerable to tidal turbines. This study investigates individual foraging niches of chick-rearing black guillemots, and how these relate to diet, nest success, and vulnerability to tidal turbines. This was achieved by using GPS tracking technology, and monitoring breeding success and chick diet (using camera traps and visual observations). Thirty-five breeding adult black guillemots were GPS tracked during the 2016 and 2017 summer breeding seasons on the Scottish islands of Stroma and North Ronaldsay. Both islands are associated with tidal streams, and Stroma is in close proximity to ongoing turbine installations within the Inner Sound. The tracks revealed individual specific foraging locations, with individuals foraging exclusively within or out with tidal streams, rarely both. Using predictive biotope data and tidal models, this study identified the partitioning of habitats between individuals. These included both high tidal energy\/deep water\/kelp associated habitats and shallow water\/low energy\/sandy\/muddy habitats.

+{"text":"People and families have been stricken by poverty from the dawn of time. As a result of the tragic events of World Wars I and II, the 20th century became the arena for the development of humanitarian law fundamentals. The most important international organizations, such as the United Nations, the International Labor Organization, and the Council of Europe, started operating in the post-war period. The first declarations and conventions referred to the issue of social protection on the ideological and axiological level and emphasized only a need to provide poor families and their members with social security. Over time, the normative dimension became specialized, both concerning the content and details of the proclaimed regulations. The article, which discusses the issue of social protection of the family from the perspective of basic international and EU laws, has a character of a review. The analysis of the selected legal acts is centered both on the territorial aspect, focusing on the universal, regional (European) and EU trends, and the temporal one \u2013 presenting the evolution of social protection programs over almost one hundred years. The study deals also with a question about the normative cohesion of the universal, regional (European) and EU systems, as well as their interrelations, that is to say: competition or mutual reception. The conclusions from the research give a positive answer and emphasize the development and specialization of social institutions, both on the universal and regional levels. Furthermore, the conclusions indicate that, during evolution, social proposals have moved from the ideological level towards detailed pragmatism, harmonizing the three legal protection systems. The dogmatic-legal method and theoretical-legal method have been applied to verify the problems and hypotheses formulated, owing to which it has been possible to carry out normative analyses and corroborate them with the doctrine of human rights and social law.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":234141796,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3118974128","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.12709\/mest.09.09.01.15","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.12709\/mest.09.09.01.15","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"During a lull in the action of the epic movie, Troy, Achilles confides to Briseis his view that 'the gods envy humans their mortality'. A surprising, almost shocking, view. The Homeric epithet for Achilles is 'swift-footed'. But in this episode Achilles demonstrates that he is not only swift of foot, but also sharp of mind. He clarifies his remark by observing that Briseis will never again be as beautiful as she is that day, a fact which makes her beauty so much the more precious. Had he not been reluctant to anger a goddess, and had he the benefit of having read Christopher Marlowe's play Faustus, he might also have pointed out that Helen's was the face Faustus desired to see\u2014the face that launched a thousand ships\u2014not Aphrodite's, even though the goddess Aphrodite was the paradigm of beauty. And he might further have observed that the goddess's beauty is somehow diminished by the fact that it is eternal.

Why might ephemeral beauty be judged more meaningful than eternal beauty\u2014a view that appears diametrically opposed, for example, to that of Plato? The answer lies in its very nature as an historical phenomenon. Helen's beauty is the culmination of a process that admits of, and gains meaning from, comparison with the earlier stages in her development; while at the same time, it acquires a poignancy from the fact that it will certainly fade. Or so it might be argued. At any rate, it is this posited relationship between meaning and history that I propose to return to and develop in the context of environmental ethics and policy-making, but not before taking a circuitous path through the thickets of intrinsic value.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":178871253,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2010073218","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1080\/21550085.2011.605866","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Abstract Software project effort estimation is one of the important aspects of software engineering. Researchers in this area are still striving hard to come out with the best predictive model that has befallen as a greatest challenge. In this work, the effort estimation for small-scale visualization projects all rendered on engineering, general science, and other allied areas developed by 60 postgraduate students in a supervised academic setting is modeled by three approaches, namely, linear regression, quadratic regression, and neural network. Seven unique parameters, namely, number of lines of code (LOC), new and change code (N&C), reuse code (R), cumulative grade point average (CGPA), cyclomatic complexity (CC), algorithmic complexity (AC), and function points (FP), which are considered to be influential in software development effort, are elicited along with actual effort. The three models are compared with respect to their prediction accuracy via the magnitude of error relative to the estimate (MER) for each project and also its mean MER (MMER) in all the projects in both the verification and validation phases. Evaluations of the models have shown MMER of 0.002, 0.006, and 0.009 during verification and 0.006, 0.002, and 0.002 during validation for the multiple linear regression, nonlinear regression, and neural network models, respectively. Thus, the marginal differences in the error estimates have indicated that the three models can be alternatively used for effort computation specific to visualization projects. Results have also suggested that parameters such as LOC, N&C, R, CC, and AC have a direct influence on effort prediction, whereas CGPA has an inverse relationship. FP seems to be neutral as far as visualization projects are concerned.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":49679657,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2584565865","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1515\/jisys-2016-0247","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYNC","url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1515\/jisys-2016-0247","status":"HYBRID"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

These studies applied ADF (Augmented Dickey Fuller test Granger Causality test and Johansen Cointegration test and GARCH (Generalized Autoregressive conditional Hetroskedasticity), VECM (vector error correction model), to find the best of the results. Energy consumption does not affect the economic growth of low income countries where as it affects the growth of high growth emerging economies. Oil export earnings of oil producing countries are exhausted for paying non-oil import bills. This makes oil export earnings not available for domestic economic development needs. The impact of international oil price is transmitted to the countries through exchange rate of respective currencies against US Dollar. As the international influence in determining domestic inflation is stronger the monetary policy becomes ineffective in controlling inflation. The volatilities in US oil derivative markets make macroeconomic uncertainties in all the countries in the world. This affects financial and gold markets of these countries.

From the expressions of the Green's functions it is clear that they are identical in the limit when the line force and the line dislocation are on the elliptic boundary. This is achieved by carefully including all image singularities in the solutions. While the solutions contain an infinite series, it is shown that closed-form solutions are possible when (i) the impedances of the two materials are identical, or (ii) the Stroh eigenvalues p \u03b1 (\u03b1 = 1, 2, 3) for the material inside the inclusion are triple roots and are given by p 1 = p 2 = p 3 = ia\/b, where a and b are the major and minor axes of the ellipse.

Despite advances in automated detection and localization of objects from images, indirect surveying is rarely automated and relies on manual on-screen delineation. We have previously introduced a boundary delineation workflow, comprising image segmentation, boundary classification and interactive delineation that we applied on Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) data to delineate roads. In this study, we improve each of these steps. For image segmentation, we remove the need to reduce the image resolution and we limit over-segmentation by reducing the number of segment lines by 80% through filtering. For boundary classification, we show how Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) can be used for boundary line classification, thereby eliminating the previous need for Random Forest (RF) feature generation and thus achieving 71% accuracy. For interactive delineation, we develop additional and more intuitive delineation functionalities that cover more application cases. We test our approach on more varied and larger data sets by applying it to UAV and aerial imagery of 0.02\u20130.25 m resolution from Kenya, Rwanda and Ethiopia. We show that it is more effective in terms of clicks and time compared to manual delineation for parcels surrounded by visible boundaries.

The target template is modelled with multi-scale model and described with three-dimensional spatial histogram. The tracking algorithm is implemented by three-dimensional mean shift iteration, which translates the problem of scale estimation in two-dimensional image plane into the localisation in three-dimensional image space. To enhance the robustness, the background weighted histogram is employed to suppress the background information in the target candidate model. Firstly, the multi-scale model and three-dimensional spatial histogram are introduced to represent the target template. Then, the three-dimensional mean shift iteration formulation is derived based on the similarity measure between the target model and the target candidate model. Finally, a multi-scale mean shift tracking algorithm combining multi-scale model and background weighted spatial histogram is proposed. The proposed algorithm is evaluated on some challenging sequences which contain scale changed targets and other complex appearance variations in comparison with three representative mean shift based tracking algorithms.

+{"text":"Team\u2010based learning (TBL), a version of the flipped classroom, has been well supported over traditional didactic lecture and is a widely used teaching method aimed to encourage active student participation in the learning process via a three\u2010step format: individual pre\u2010class preparation, in\u2010class readiness assurance testing, and application\u2010focused exercises. Many fields of health\u2010related professional education have incorporated this teaching strategy. This year, the course instructor decided to fully integrate TBL into the Developmental Anatomy (DA) course at the University of Mississippi Medical Center. DA is a 2\u2010credit hour course that has followed a flipped classroom model and is integrated with Gross Anatomy. In the past few years, students have been provided with online self\u2010study modules to review on their own time before attending optional interactive review sessions using clickers. The review sessions were a chance for students to assess their knowledge and exam readiness. The goal of using TBL is not only to help facilitate an active learning environment, but also to create a system in which students are encouraged to review material in a timely, evenly\u2010distributed manner. With the introduction of TBL, sessions are no longer optional and contribute 10% to the students' overall grade in the course. The authors of this paper intend to describe the use of a newly implemented, modified\u2010form of TBL in the classroom and its effects on current student exam results as compared to those of the previous year. Modifications of the official TBL format had to be made. These alterations include: 50\u2010minute pre\u2010scheduled sessions when longer sessions are typically suggested for effective TBL and the non\u2010traditional use of Turning Technology \"clickers\" rather than paper for both individual (IRAT) and team readiness assurance tests (TRAT) to reduce paper consumption and increase grading efficiency. Prior to the start of the term, the authors composed ten USMLE style clinical vignette questions based primarily on module and course objectives for use during the TBL sessions. The authors determined what topics to focus on by reviewing previous exams for questions missed by 30% or more of the class. Preliminary analysis of the data shows that when comparing exam question results, student performance significantly increased when the questions had been included in the TBL activity than when they were used during the interactive review session. Moreover, decrease in the Point Bi\u2010Serial value suggests that students in the lower quartiles might benefit more from these TBL sessions. Final outcomes will be determined following the conclusion of the term. The authors hypothesize that there will be a statistically significant improvement in learning outcomes in comparison to the previous year.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":249785340,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1096\/fasebj.31.1_supplement.581.7","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"A thorough self-similarity analysis is presented to investigate the properties of self-similarity for the outer layer of compressible turbulent boundary layers. The results are validated using the compressible and quasi-incompressible direct numerical simulation (DNS) data shown and discussed in the first part of this study; see Wenzel et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 880, 2019, pp. 239\u2013283). The analysis is carried out for a general set of characteristic scales, and conditions are derived which have to be fulfilled by these sets in case of self-similarity. To evaluate the main findings derived, four sets of characteristic scales are proposed and tested. These represent compressible extensions of the incompressible edge scaling, friction scaling, Zagarola\u2013Smits scaling and a newly defined Rotta\u2013Clauser scaling. Their scaling success is assessed by checking the collapse of flow-field profiles extracted at various streamwise positions, being normalized by the respective scales. For a good set of scales, most conditions derived in the analysis are fulfilled. As suggested by the data investigated, approximate self-similarity can be achieved for the mean-flow distributions of the velocity, mass flux and total enthalpy and the turbulent terms. Self-similarity thus can be stated to be achievable to a very high degree in the compressible regime. Revealed by the analysis and confirmed by the DNS data, this state is predicted by the compressible pressure-gradient boundary-layer growth parameter $\\unicode[STIX]{x1D6EC}_{c}$ , which is similar to the incompressible one found by related incompressible studies. Using appropriate adaption, $\\unicode[STIX]{x1D6EC}_{c}$ values become comparable for compressible and incompressible pressure-gradient cases with similar wall-normal shear-stress distributions. The Rotta\u2013Clauser parameter in its traditional form $\\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FD}_{K}=(\\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FF}_{K}^{\\ast }\/\\bar{\\unicode[STIX]{x1D70F}}_{w})(\\text{d}p_{e}\/\\text{d}x)$ with the kinematic (incompressible) displacement thickness $\\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FF}_{K}^{\\ast }$ is shown to be a valid parameter of the form $\\unicode[STIX]{x1D6EC}_{c}$ and hence still is a good indicator for equilibrium flow in the compressible regime at the finite Reynolds numbers considered. Furthermore, the analysis reveals that the often neglected derivative of the length scale, $\\text{d}L_{0}\/\\text{d}x$ , can be incorporated, which was found to have an important influence on the scaling success of common 'low-Reynolds-number' DNS data; this holds for both incompressible and compressible flow. Especially for the scaling of the $\\bar{\\unicode[STIX]{x1D70C}}\\widetilde{u^{\\prime \\prime }v^{\\prime \\prime }}$ stress and thus also the wall shear stress $\\bar{\\unicode[STIX]{x1D70F}}_{w}$ , the inclusion of $\\text{d}L_{0}\/\\text{d}x$ leads to palpable improvements.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":209977429,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2980121214","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1017\/jfm.2019.672","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/core\/services\/aop-cambridge-core\/content\/view\/498539250266941049E4CBA24FE54209\/S0022112019006724a.pdf\/div-class-title-self-similar-compressible-turbulent-boundary-layers-with-pressure-gradients-part-2-self-similarity-analysis-of-the-outer-layer-div.pdf","status":"HYBRID"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

At the same time, the rigidity of the part under an impulse load difIn modern machine-building production, there are many parts that have both significant overall dimensions and complex hard-to-reach surfaces for processing. The manufacture of such parts is carried out on specialized equipment, which has the same significant overall dimensions. However, the complexity of the design of a number of parts, such as the body of a rocket engine, large volume tanks, non-separable metal structures, etc., as well as their inaccessibility, level the technological capabilities of this equipment. Currently, industrial robots equipped with tool spindles are used to process such parts. The presence of a large number of degrees of freedom of this equipment, the relatively small overall dimensions and the vastness of the working area allow them to be effectively used in this field of mechanical engineering. However, the insufficiently studied rigidity of this equipment, the lack of specific recommendations for their use significantly limit the scope of their application. Thus, the issues related to the mutual influence of the rigidity of the technological system, cutting forces and cutting conditions in the manufacture of large parts using industrial robots are relevant and require a comprehensive study. In order to study dynamic processes in the manufacture of large-sized parts using an industrial robot, experiments were carried out to determine the amplitude-frequency characteristics of vibrations that occur during processing. An experimental study made it possible to establish that the rigidity of the technological system varies over a wide range. At the same time, the rigidity of the part under an impulse load differs from the rigidity during milling by at least an order of magnitude, and the rigidity of the spindle during milling differs from the rigidity of the part by at least 2 orders of magnitude. Based on this, in the process of designing the machining of large-sized non-rigid parts using industrial robots, it is necessary to take into account the worst conditions for rigidity. It is advisable to base further recommendations on the appointment of cutting conditions under changing processing conditions on the basis of mathematical modeling of the rigidity of the elements of the technological system. Also, to automate the process of removing the parameters of the rigidity of the technological system, an urgent task is to determine by test determination of vibrations on the spindle of an industrial robot and indirect assessment of microdisplacements on the part","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":252958307,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.14529\/engin220104","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.14529\/engin220104","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In this study we introduce a method to quantify the safety and efficacy of the KTP laser in laryngeal procedures. Method: Pre-and post-KTP laser treatment videos were obtained from 3 institutions. The change in size of the laryngeal lesions was measured using a novel objective computerized method. A select number of videos were evaluated by blinded reviewers and rated for measures of safety. Results: More than 120 larynges underwent treatment for mucosal lesions including polyps, granulomas, and leukoplakia. Regardless of lesion type, there was a decrease in size based upon objective computer measurements, with all approaching or meeting statistical significance. Long-term follow-up was indicative of persistent lesion regression. Interrater reliability was good. Nineteen larynges were evaluated for safety based upon mucosal wave and glottic closure, with >90% of evaluations reporting preservation or improvement. Internal validity was good.

+{"text":"Abstract Resorcarene-octacarboxylic acids, macrocyclic molecules built up by four alkylidene-bridged resorcinol units, were synthesized and used as pseudostationary phases in electrokinetic chromatography (EKC). Resorcarenes provide a stable structure and good solubility in electrolytes even with organic modifiers. The high electrophoretic mobility of the resorcarene-octacarboxylic acids introduced here as pseudostationary phases is based on the eight partly deprotonated carboxylic groups. This offers a broad migration time window, which is the main parameter for the resolution of peaks. From three compounds with different alkyl chain lengths (C 1 , C 5 , C 11 ), the C 11 -resorcarene-octa-acid possesses an extremely high selectivity for lipophilic compounds which is demonstrated by the efficient separation of thirteen homologous or isomeric amines derivatized with o -phthaldialdehyde and 2-mercaptoethanol. The order of peak elution is almost identical with that known in reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography. Sensitive detection of amines is achieved using laser-induced fluorescence.

+{"text":"E conomic issues dominate current discussions of psychiatric service needs and the distribution of care. Almost two-thirds of the financing for psychiatric care comes from the government, and approximately 10% of all expenditures under Medicaid are for psychiatric services. At the same time it has been amply documented that there is an undenfinancing of private office psychiatric care by third parties, especially the government, and that private medical and surgical care receives a much higher proportion of its reimbursement through third-party systems (1). Fraudulent claims submitted to third parties and abusive practices compromise the integrity of the entire medical enterprise. Psychiatrists must fulfill their ethical obligations not only to individual patients but also to the fiscal intermediaries who provide support for care from pooled community resources. In this light, the report by Geis and associates in this issue of the Journal must be taken very seriously. It points out that a disproportionate number of psychiatrists, compared with other physicians, are suspended from the Medicare and Medicaid programs because of fraud and abuse. In the mid 1 970s, when fraudulent practice in residential treatment centers for children came to light in the CHAMPUS program, psychiatric benefits were nearly cut in half. Only the timely interposition of peer review provided confidence to the government that the profession could closely monitor care and prevent fraud and abuse (2). Geis and associates indicate that psychiatrists are perhaps \"easy targets,\" since it is easier to monitor time inflation and the use of nonphysician personnel than \"procedures\" used by other medical specialists. Perhaps the auditors of government programs monitor and review psychiatrists disproportionately more than other physicians, as a result making psychiatrists more frequent targets for investigation. If that is the case-the report does not shed light on this question-it could lead to greater reluctance on the part of psychiatrists to treat the government-insured poor in private office practice. For physicians who practice with integrity (the vast majority), being so closely monitored undermines the effectiveness of care. Also, a major issue not considered in Geis and associates' report is the need to encourage greaten participation by private psychiatrists in treating the poor (3). As the authors state, \"Nonetheless, what is actually known and what is believed about fraud against government medical benefit programs by psychiatrists reflects unfavorably on the practice of psychiatry.\" It should be noted that the American Psychiatric Association, through its Ethics and Peer Review Committees and its contracts with CHAMPUS, the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program, and 24 commercial carriers, has probably been the most active medical specialty society in pressing for accountability and quality care. APA emphasizes and publicizes these efforts as a necessary counterweight to stigmatizing notions which imply that psychiatric care is ineffective and\/or a rip-off. Professionals can monitor themselves much more effectively than a third panty such as government can, and the extent to which we do so will prevent unwarranted and clinically damaging intrusions into our offices and files. Confidence in psychiatric care begins with confidence in the integrity of the providers and the willingness of professional peers to be held accountable to each other.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":1548105,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2405193637","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1176\/AJP.142.2.219","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Compared with the day-of-year, the accumulated growing degree days (AGDD) more effectively reflect vegetation growing stage, which serves as important references in agricultural management and disaster prediction. From this end, it is also worth to investigate vegetation-meteorological factor correlation within intervals defined by the AGDD. In this paper, pixel-wise VCI-meteorological factor (i.e. precipitation and temperature) correlation was analyzed in grass\/pasture land by different intervals adjusted by the AGDD. According to results, variances of VCI-meteorological factor correlation were unveiled across different intervals. Summarily, the temperature serves as the dominant factor on VCI dynamics before the heating accumulation necessary for grass growing is achieved. Within these intervals, the precipitation is weakly correlated with the VCI. As excessive heating is received after necessary heating condition is met, the precipitation replaces the temperature as the controlling factor and shows increasingly positive correlation with the VCI. Within the same intervals, VCI-temperature correlation coefficient decreases to negative level. The work in this paper is helpful to better understand intra-annual variances of VCI-meteorological factor correlation.

+{"text":"The thesis examines the development of the civil air route between Britain and India from 1918 to 1932. Although an Indian route had been pioneered before the First World War, after it ended, fourteen years would pass before the route was established on a permanent basis. The research provides an explanation for the late start and subsequent slow development of the India route. The overall finding is that progress was held back by a combination of interconnected factors operating in both Britain and the Persian Gulf region. These included economic, political, administrative, diplomatic, technological, and cultural factors. The arguments are developed through a methodology that focuses upon two key theoretical concepts which relate, firstly, to interwar civil aviation as part of a dimension of empire, and secondly, to the history of aviation as a new technology. With regards to empire, the thesis investigates the imperial and economic value of imperial aviation, perceptions of Britain's imperial potency, and the nature of Britain's long-term policy and administrative arrangements in London, Delhi, Persia, and on the Trucial Coast. In relation to technology, the thesis examines the choices made by the British. In connection with both empire and technology, the thesis considers the character and effects of the 'official mind' responsible for civil aviation policy. The research shows that, in relation to aviation, British imperial policy-making was in general neither confident nor proactive. In terms of the India route, British imperial administrators displayed weakness, in that they were unable to impose their will sufficiently strongly to drive through the route either rapidly or effectively. The impetus for imperial aviation came from the empire's core, and the causes of the route's delay were therefore located within the core. The primary cause was Britain's resistance to providing financial support for air transportation. As the First World War ended, the development of imperial aviation depended upon that of civil aviation. With private capital investment not forthcoming, the Government reluctantly took on responsibility but not until 1924, when, provoked by Germany's air progress and lured by the promise of imperial prestige, was the Government forced to provide financial support to civil aviation. It subsidised Imperial Airways, but in pursuing the policy of wholly funding the R101 airship project it made the wrong technological choice. The Imperial Airship Scheme only diverted public money away from the aeroplane development on which future civil aviation would depend. In the second half of the 1920s, as the British attempted to develop the India route via Persia and then the Trucial Coast, their long-term policy in the region seemed to promise diplomatic advantage in negotiations. However, as aviation represented an unwelcome incursion into local sovereignty, it caused local opposition. Unable to resort to their traditional 'gunboat diplomacy,' the British found their influence greatly below what they had presumed. When they were forced to develop a collaborative relationship with local elites, it became apparent that a balance of power had emerged. While undoubtedly showing the limitations of British imperial policy-making, the protracted history of the establishment of the Indian air route demonstrates that to some extent the British 'official mind' was flexible, and capable of adapting to changed conditions.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":199294745,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2962041478","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.7190\/SHU-THESIS-00184","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Industry environment has become competitive because of product's short life cycle. Competition reaches to extreme, when products are deteriorating which further makes demand uncertain. Generally, in deriving the solution of economic order quantity (EOQ) inventory model, the authors consider the demand rate as constant quantity. But in real life, demand cannot be forecasted precisely which causes fuzziness in related constraints and cost functions. Managing inventory, procurement, and transportation of deteriorating natured products with fuzzy demand, and holding cost at source and destination becomes very crucial in supply chain management (SCM). The objective of the current research is to develop a fuzzy optimization model for minimizing cost of holding, procurement, and transportation of goods from single source point to multi demand points with discount policies at the time of ordering and transporting goods in bulk quantity.

Increased expression of PLC-gamma 1 may play an important role in colon carcinogenesis, but the mechanism is not well known. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of PLC-gamma 1 in colon carcinogenesis by using recombinant lentivirus that stably suppressed the PLC-gamma 1 expression in human colorectal carcinoma LoVo cells.\n\n\nMETHODS\nRecombinant lentivirus producing PLC-gamma 1 siRNA were prepared. After LoVo cells were transduced by each lentivirus, stably transduced cells were selected by Blasticidin. The protein and mRNA expression of PLC-gamma 1 were examined by Western-blot and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis, and the effects of the lentivirus on the cell adhesion, migration and apoptosis were analyzed.\n\n\nRESULTS\nStable LoVo cell line deficient in PLC-gamma 1, was established. Notably, PLC-gamma 1 was silenced without affecting the levels of other subtypes of PLC so that the role of PLC-gamma 1 in colon carcinogenesis could be examined. Silencing of endogenous PLC-gamma 1 resulted in efficient inhibition of the adhesion and migration of LoVo cells in vitro and a great increase of 5-fluorouracil induced apoptosis (30%-40%) of LoVo cells.\n\n\nCONCLUSIONS\nPLC-gamma 1 may play an important role in metastasis and anti-apoptosis in human colorectal carcinomas.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":41311036,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"231122764","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1097\/00029330-200705010-00003","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYNCND","url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/00029330-200705010-00003","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"P. D. Allen, J. Graham, D. Williamson, C. Hutchinson Imaging Science and Biomedical Engineering, University of Manchester, Manchester, United Kingdom, Chemistry, University of York, York, United Kingdom INTODUCTION: Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate which can cause constriction of the urethra and therefore obstruction of urinary flow. It affects 70% of men between the ages of 61 and 70, rising to 80% for men over 80. In 25% of men aged 80 symptoms are sufficiently severe to require surgical transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), however this treatment has a high cost, morbidity (16%) and mortality (2.01%) and so alternative treatments are sought. From a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) perspective the prostate can be anatomically divided into two zones: the inner Central Gland (CG) which is partly surrounded by the Peripheral Zone (PZ) (figure 1). BPH primarily affects the CG causing it to enlarge and compress the surrounding PZ, thus progress of the disease and\/or evaluation of treatment effectiveness can be assessed by measuring the ratio of CG to PZ. The current standard is Transrectal Ultrasound (TRUS) in which three orthogonal dimensions are measured and the volume is estimated using the formula for a prolate ellipsoid. Inter-observer variability in volume measurement using TRUS has been shown to be approximately 20% [1]. MRI is an attractive alternative to TRUS as it offers better definition of the prostate and is non invasive. MRI offers the possibility of accurately segmenting the prostate rather than assuming its volume from three orthogonal measurements. However, manual segmentation is time consuming, error prone and subjective, and so the goal of this project is to investigate the possibility of automatic segmentation of the appropriate regions of the prostate. For this study we have used T2 weighted fat suppressed (T2FS) images as the CG\/PZ contrast is enhanced in comparison with T2 or T1 weighting, and there is clearer separation of the prostate from surrounding tissue. The data were collected using a 1.5T Philips Gyroscan ACS MR scanner (software version NT5.3, Power Track 600, synergy body coil) from 22 patients with BPH. For each patient there are 50 axial slices with a thickness of 2mm and an in-plane resolution of 1.56mm. Figure 1 shows an axial MRI slice of a prostate \u2013 signal intensity is generally higher in the PZ than the CG and in nondisease cases differentiating the two based purely on image grey-level is relatively straight forward.

+{"text":"Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is a pandemic caused by the coronavirus SARS -CoV-2 that was not previously seen in humans. COVID-19 is spreading rapidly throughout the world. COVID-19 can be detected by a lung infection of the patients. The standard method for detecting COVID-19 is the Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test. But the availability of RT-PCR tests is in short supply. As a result of this, the early detection of the disease is difficult. The easily obtainable modes like X-rays are often used for detecting infections in the lungs. It is confirmed that X-ray scans can be widely used for efficient COVID-19 diagnosis. But a physical diagnosis of X-rays of an outsized number of patients is a longterm process. A deep learning-based diagnosis process can help radiologists in detecting COVID-19 from X-ray scans. Pre-trained CNNs are commonly used in detecting diseases from datasets. This paper proposes a CNN model with a parallelization strategy that extracts the features in the X-ray images by applying filters parallelly through the images. Our proposed method aims to attain higher accuracy and a less loss rate with precision. To do so, the accuracy and loss rates of three types of CNN - VGG-16, MobileNet, and CNN are compared with the parallelization technique. Since, VGG-16 and MobileNet are pre-trained models; those two models are directly imported from Keras.

+{"text":"\"Paralysis resulting from disease or injury of no other individual nerve leads to a deformity more distressing than that consequent upon the loss of function of the [facial nerve]\/' so wrote Cushing in 1903. Facial palsy is a devastating affliction for the individual for both cosmetic and functional reasons. The two main functional problems associated with facial nerve paralysis are loss of the blink reflex and inadequate eye closure with poor protection of the cornea and, secondly functional problems associated with poor lip control such as drooling and a (usually minor) speech defect because of inadequate lip control. Cosmetic problems associated with facial palsy are well-known and tend to become accentuated with the passage of time as the skin loses its elasticity and the racial muscles atrophy. Attempts at diverting other motor nerves to the paralyzed facial nerve were made in the late 19th century. Drobnik in 1879 anastomosed the distal portion of the paralyzed facial nerve with the proximal portion of the accessory nerve. Sir Charles Balance performed an end-to-side anastomosis of the facial nerve to the accessory nerve, although Cushing in 1903 reported that Dr. Faure of Hopital Laenaec was the first person to carry out this procedure in 1898. The first account of hypoglossal facial anastomosis is by Korte in 1903 and apparently a successful result was achieved on this occasion. In 1932 Balance and Duel reported on a series of 30 experiments anastomosing the trunk of the facial nerve to the hypoglossal nerve, the descendens hypoglossi, masseteric nerve, lingual nerve, chorda tympani nerve, and the cervical sympathetic nerves, and they stated that no matter what nerve was used for anastomosis, it was possible to stimulate the nerves of the face using a faradic current. In subsequent years the use of the facial accessory anastomosis seems to have declined because of the complications of accessory nerve division, namely, shoulder drop and shoulder weakness and frequently pain in the shoulder. More recently, Clayton et al have reported a series of ten patients who have undergone facial hypoglossal anastomosis. Gavron and Clemis in 1984 reported on a series of 40 patients and Conley and Baker in 1979 a series of 137 cases. The operation does seem to be infrequently performed even by those authors with relatively large series and, for example, Conley and Baker's cases spanned 30 years and Gavron and Clemis's spanned 20 years. This is no doubt because the occurrence of the principal indication for the operation, namely, an intact extratemporal facial nerve with the loss of the portion of facial nerve between the brainstem and internal auditory meatus, is relatively uncommon. This is presumably due to improved neuro-otosurgical techniques in the management of acoustic neuromas and major middle ear disease.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":36660168,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1992800628","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1055\/s-2008-1064638","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

As the results, the rigid, highly twisted conformation of TeP restricts the non-radiative processes of RTP and gives rise to the enhancement of electron-exchange, which can contribute to the RTP radiation process. Despite the faint RTP of the bromine and chlorine-substituted ones (TeP-Br, TeP-Cl), the fluoro-substituted TeP-F exhibited a long phosphorescent lifetime of up to 890 ms, corresponding to an extremely long RTP afterglow over 8 s, which could be incorporated into the best series of non-heavy-atom RTP materials reported in previous literature.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":259260860,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1002\/anie.202306475","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

They are most probably characterized by a magnetic field strength that is roughly two orders of magnitude lower than that of most of the radio and accreting pulsars. The thermal emission of CCOs can be modeled to obtain constraints on the physical parameters of the star such as its mass, radius, effective temperature, and chemical composition. Aims: The CCO in HESS, J1731-347 is one of the brightest objects of this class. We present our analysis of two new XMM-Newton observations of the source which increase the total exposure time of the by a factor of five compared to the analyses presented before. Methods: We use our numerical spectral models for carbon and hydrogen atmospheres to fit the spectrum of the CCO. From our fits, we derive constraints on the physical parameters of the emitting star. We also use the new data to derive new upper limits on pulsations and to confirm the absence of a long-term variability. Results: The analysis shows that atmosphere spectral models are clearly preferred by the fit over the blackbody function. Under the assumption that the X-ray emission is uniformly produced by the entire star surface, hydrogen atmosphere models lead to uncomfortably large distances of the CCO, above 7-8 kpc. On the other hand, the carbon atmosphere model formally excludes distances above 5-6 kpc and is compatible with the source located in the Scutum-Crux (3 kpc) or Norma-Cygnus (4.5 kpc) Galactic spiral arm. We provide and discuss the corresponding confidence contours in the NS mass-radius plane. The measured effective temperature indicates that the NS is exceptionally hot for the estimated age of 30 kyr.

Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that PH increases the vasoconstrictor responsiveness and impairs the vasorelaxation of diaphragm arterioles.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":248575452,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1096\/fasebj.2022.36.s1.r6020","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"With the advent of digital signal processing (DSP) in optical transmitters and receivers, the ability to finely tune the ratio of pre and post dispersion compensation can be exploited to best mitigate the nonlinear penalties caused by the Kerr effect. A portion of the nonlinear penalty in optical communication channels has been explained by an increase in peak to average power ratio (PAPR) inherent in highly dispersed signals. The standard approach for minimizing these impairments applies 50% pre dispersion compensation and 50% post dispersion compensation, thereby decreasing average PAPR along the length of the cable, as compared with either 100% pre or post dispersion compensation. In this paper we demonstrate that simply considering the net accumulated dispersion, and applying 50\/50 pre\/post dispersion is not necessarily the best way to minimize PAPR and subsequent Kerr nonlinearities. Instead, we consider the cumulative dispersion along the entire length of the cable, and, taking into account this additional information, derive an analytic formula for the minimization of PAPR. Alignment with simulation and experimental measurements is presented using a commercially available 100Gb\/s dual-polarization binary phase-shift-keying (DP-BPSK) coherent modem, with transmitter and receiver DSP. Measurements are provided from two different 5000km dispersion managed Submarine test-beds, as well as a 3800km terrestrial test-bed with a mixture of SMF-28 and TWRS optical fiber.

In this article, \"Why our schools don't get much better-and how they might,\" he also describes a different and changing America, one in which there must be dramatically different educational institutions and patterns. Goodlad points out how, in the past, education has relied heavily on moral and religious values taught in the family and the culture. These values have, in many instances, disappeared, their place taken over by television programming. Like Resnick and Erb, Goodlad sees a culture where there can be no dividing of educational responsibilities. He also thinks that all (or almost all) students must master complex ideas in order to survive in a complex society. Theoretically, such ideas should support education of the gifted, except that in Goodlad's eyes, such an education would be for all of the students. How one deals with undeniable individual differences then becomes the substantial challenge for the teacher and the educational system.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":141345013,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"242153211","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1177\/016235329401700407","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Introduction Untreated ocular infections can damage the unique fine structures of the eye with possible visual impairments and blindness. Ciprofloxacin (CIP) ophthalmic solution is prescribed as first-line therapy in ocular bacterial infections. Natamycin (NT) ophthalmic suspension is one of the progenitors in ocular antifungal therapy. Nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) have been widely examined for ocular penetration enhancement and distribution to deeper ocular tissues. The objective of the current study was to prepare NLCs loaded with a combination of CIP and NT (CIP-NT-NLCs) and embed them in an in-situ gelling system (CIP-NT-NLCs-IG). This novel formulation will target the co-delivery of CIP and NT for the treatment of mixed ocular infections or as empirical treatment in case of limited access to healthcare diagnostic services. Methods CIP-NT-NLC and CIP-NT-NLC-IG formulations were evaluated based on physicochemical characteristics, in vitro release, and ex vivo transcorneal permeation studies and compared against commercial CIP and NT ophthalmic eye drops. Results and Discussion NLCs formulation (0.1% CIP and 0.3% NT) showed particle size, polydispersity index, and zeta potential of 196.2 \u00b1 1.2 nm, 0.43 \u00b1 0.06, and \u221228.1 \u00b1 1.4 mV, respectively. Moreover, CIP-NT-NLCs showed entrapment efficiency of 80.9 \u00b1 2.9 and 98.7 \u00b1 1.9% for CIP and NT, respectively. CIP-NT-NLCs-IGformulation with 0.2% w\/v gellan gum demonstrated the most favorable viscoelastic characteristics for ocular application. CIP-NT-NLCs and CIP-NT-NLCs-IG formulations exhibited a sustained release pattern for both drugs over 24 h. Moreover, CIP-NT-NLCs and CIP-NT-NLC-IG formulations showed 4.0- and 2.2-folds, and 5.0- and 2.5-folds enhancement in ex vivo transcorneal permeability of CIP and NT, respectively, compared to the control formulations. Conclusion The results suggest that this dual nanoparticulate-based in-situ gelling drug delivery system can serve as a promising topical delivery platform for the treatment of ocular infections.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":248903485,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.2147\/IJN.S360740","PubMedCentral":"9124492","ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Systemic racism is embedded in institutions such as education, employment, housing, health services, religion, media, government and laws, and the legal systems. Critical racial literacy involves praxis (reflection and action) in order to interrupt racism in educational and familial contexts. An important premise of critical racial literacy is that racism can be intentional or unintentional.\n Racism is complex and occurs on different levels including individual, institutional, and societal and cultural forms. Educators who engage in critical racial literacy reject colorblind and race-neutral approaches. Likewise, reflecting on one's racial identity is an important part of the process of becoming racially literate.\n In school settings, critical racial literacy can be used to detect and dismantle five types of racial violence in schools (physical, symbolic, linguistic, curricular or instructional, and systemic) as well as ways to interrupt them. A key focus is on developing racial literacy among educators and students at all levels from preschool through college.\n Critical racial literacy is important in families. Even young children can be engaged in the teaching and learning process about race and racism.

Herein, we report the successful bromine doping of graphene resulting in air-stable transparent conducting electrodes with up to 80% reduction of sheet resistance reaching ~180 \u03a9\/ at the cost of 2-3% loss of optical transmission in case of few layer graphene and 0.8% in case of single layer graphene. The remarkably low tradeoff in optical transparency leads to the highest enhancements in figure of merit reported thus far. Furthermore, our results show a controlled increase in the workfunction up to 0.3 eV with the bromine content. These results should help pave the way for further development of graphene as potentially a highly transparent substitute to other transparent conducting electrodes in optoelectronic devices.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":123411454,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2211788199","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1117\/12.2187273","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/repository.kaust.edu.sa\/bitstream\/10754\/617310\/1\/95520A.pdf","status":"GREEN"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In this paper, we study to which extent popular web browsers can resist such attacks by analyzing the shape of their network traffic when fetching websites. To this end, five fine-grained measures are used to point out very subtle differences in the network traffic of each web browser. Empirical analysis showed that, among six studied web browsers Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari, Opera, and Tor Browser, Opera and Safari offer the highest resistance to website fingerprinting. Because most of existing fingerprinting techniques have been evaluated using Firefox web browser, we expect the accuracy results of existing work to be reduced in case Opera or Safari browser is used.

This letter puts the case that this argument redefines the quantity 'frequency' and then draws conclusions from equations that rely on the standard definition being used. The problems that this redefinition is designed to address arise from the widespread unstated adoption of the Radian Convention, which treats the radian as a dimensionless quantity equal to the number 1, in effect making the radian a 'hidden' unit. This convention is currently 'built-in' to the SI, when it should be separable from it. The unhelpful status of angles in the SI can be remedied with minimal disruption by (1) changing the definition of the radian from 'a radian equals 1 m m\u22121' to e.g. 'a right angle equals \u03c0\/2 radians', and (2) acknowledging that the adoption of the Radian Convention is acceptable, when made explicit.

Based on my experiences of novel reading comprehension classes at Yonsei University, topics on textbooks, types of teaching materials(printed materials vs. multimedia materials), selection of languages(ancient literature vs. modern literature), and the intellectual levels of students are seriously considered in this study. In the concrete, the coverage of this research, classworks and homeworks in chinese classical literature reading comprehension calsses opened for two semesters are explained and an efficient method of teaching utilizing multimedia contents is also introduced. The method of teaching utilizing multimedia contents develops the imagination and creativity of students and leads more active discussions among them voluntarily.

+{"text":"## Abstract and guideline \nIn a four-year research project, the landscape of large German speaking universities (Austria, Germany, Switzerland) was investigated. Our goal was to construct an empirically based data model for campus-management systems (CMS). An early version of the methodology can be found in [Carolla & Spitta, 2014](http:\/\/pub.uni-bielefeld.de\/publication\/2698378). The final results will be published by the end of 2014 as the PhD thesis of Marco Carolla. \n \nThe data presented here show the validation of the ontologically designed data model, which we call a reference model for the data base schema of CMS. Its construction was performed iteratively following a guideline being sketched below. A UML class model derived from the ontologically constructed model of kinds, roles and relators was built using the concept OntoUML. This model was transformed into a relational database schema with all structurally relevant attributes of entities. Found entities serve as headlines for database tables filled with values of all 30 cases shown here. \n \nThe sampling was done in two steps: First we drew a probabilities proportional to size sample (PPS) of 10 from the 60 large German speaking universities ('large' > 15,000 students). The probability for a university to get into the sample increased with the number of offered study courses. Secondly a random selection of 3 study courses for each of the 10 selected universities followed. Only these 10 institutions offer more than 10.250 study courses. This means that our validation is plausible but can not be called statistically representative (Yin, 2014, p. 40 ff. and 68). \n## Data \nWe present the data for two types of users: \n \n1. *Researchers* or developers who want to read all data of the study.

+{"text":"Many types of atmospheric aerosols cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) capable of activating as 19 cloud droplets. Some primary biological aerosol particles (PBAP), such as plant spores, pollen, 20 or bacteria, have been identified as such CCN. Urban environments are a source of these 21 bioaerosols, those that are naturally produced by the local flora, or are transported from 22 surrounding regions, and others that are a result of human activities. In the latter case, open 23 sewage, uncovered garbage, mold or other products of such activities can be a source of PBAPs. 24 There have been relatively few studies, especially in the tropics, where PBAPs and CCN have 25 been simultaneously studied to establish a causal link between the two. The metropolis of San 26 Juan, Puerto Rico is one such urban area with a population of 2,448,000 (as of 2020). To better 27 understand the fluorescent characteristics and cloud forming efficiency of aerosols in this 28 region, measurements with a Wideband Integrated Bioaerosol Spectrometer (WIBS), a 29 condensing nuclei (CN) counter, and a CCN spectrometer were made at the University of 30 Puerto Rico \u2013 Rio Piedras Campus. Results show that the CCN\/CN activation ratio and the 31 2 fraction of fluorescing aerosol particles (FAP) have repetitive daily trends when the FAP 32 fraction is positively correlated with relative humidity and negatively correlated with wind 33 speed, consistent with previous studies of fungi spores collected on substrates. 34 The results from this pilot study highlight the capabilities of ultraviolet-induced fluorescence 35 (UV-IF) measurements for characterizing the properties of FAP as they relate to daily evolution 36 of PBAPs. The use of multiple excitation and emission wavelengths, along with shape 37 detection, allows the differentiation of different PBAP types.

+{"text":"Carbon monoxide (CO), recently approved as a modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) gas, has the potential to extend color shelf life in case-ready beef. The objective was to determine how CO versus traditional high oxygen MAP treatments affect beef quality. Strip loins were enhanced with a commercial phosphate\u2013salt solution. Steaks were cut, packaged in atmospheres containing either 0.4% CO\/30% CO2\/69.6% N2 (HiOx) or 80% O2\/20% CO2 (HiOx), aged in the dark for 12 and 26 days, and placed in a lighted retail display case. Steaks were visually evaluated by trained panelists using a 7-point color scale and a 5-point surface sheen scale. On days 14 and 28, packages were opened, and steaks were cooked for consumer evaluation. Cooked steaks were cut through for internal cooked color evaluation. Results indicate that CO had no effect on flavor or acceptability and minimal effects on other characteristics, such as color, sheen and purge loss.

Three genes express the four catalytically active isoforms of mammalian PanK; PanK1\u03b11\u03b2 2, and 3. PanK activity is feedback inhibited by CoA, with each isoform exhibiting a distinct sensitivity to the CoA thioester pool. Mutations in the human PanK 2 gene result in a progressive and fatal neurodegenerative disease, called PKAN. Our lab and others have shown that human PanK2 is associated with mitochondria. The localization of PanK2 was investigated using a human neuroblastoma cell, SHSY. Selective permeabilization of mitochondrial compartments with increasing concentrations of digitonin, combined with Proteinase K digestion of exposed proteins, revealed that PanK2 was located in the intermitochondrial space. PanK enzyme activity in isolated mitochondrial fractions was cryptic, and restoration of full activity accompanied detergent solubilization of the mitochondrial membrane. Long\u2010chain acylcarnitine has been shown to activate PanK2 in vitro.

While the education problem in urban communities is a blend of social, cultural, and political factors, transforming pedagogical practices can present viable solutions to the disparities facing innercity schools. Rather than devalue students' racial and cultural experiences, teachers can activate students' critical consciousness and integrate their cultural backgrounds into the content of their learning experiences. This builds student engagement and counters the phenomenon of student resistance and oppositional culture seen in urban settings. This paper fundamentally argues that urban public school teachers can become social agents. However, current data on the urban teaching workforce suggest that urban teachers are becoming increasingly young, inexperienced, and frustrated with inner-city school working conditions. Therefore, in order for critical pedagogy to be realized, other structural factors surrounding teacher effectiveness and teacher quality must also be addressed.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":18451526,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2557961168","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Besides probing for blind spots in Hansen's arguments, it considers the so-called newness of new media in terms of the intensity of embodiment. Further, it suggests that embodiment has roots in cybernetics, for the accomplishment of a cognitive act involves cooperation between man and machine, i.e., man and machine merging into a distributed cognitive system, forming a circuit wherein a cognitive act is consummated.

This is partly due to the selective nature of attention\u2014creative cognition consists of two phases, idea generation and idea evaluation, and selective processes are essential for both phases. Here, we investigate attentional (i.e., selective) mechanisms underlying each phase, using the framework of two major attention taxonomies: top-down\/bottom-up and internal\/external attention. We argue that creative cognition is supported by a dynamic interplay between the typically opposing sides of each taxonomy. Further, we argue that this dynamic relationship is reflected in interactions across three large-scale brain networks: the default mode (DMN), frontoparietal control (FPN), and salience (SN) networks. Our review of the evidence suggests that creative cognition is best achieved through the flexible use of multiple forms of attention, rather than through reduced attention. We thus propose a two-dimensional space, including one dimension for top-down\/bottom-up attention and another for internal\/external attention, which can sufficiently capture the flexibility and diversity of attentional mechanisms underlying different stages and components of creative cognition.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":260153025,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.33735\/phimisci.2023.10020","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYND","url":"https:\/\/philosophymindscience.org\/index.php\/phimisci\/article\/download\/10020\/10490","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"This paper revisits the issue of Europe's growth slowdown in the light of the developments of the first decade of the 21st century, including the devastating effects from the 2008\/09 recession and the subsequent economic and financial crisis on Europe's growth performance. From a supply side perspective, using a growth accounting approach, there are virtually no signs of even the beginnings of a reversal in the slowing growth trend, which is primarily driven by a weak productivity performance in most European countries. From a demand perspective, using a global value chain-type analysis, it turns out that activities contributing directly or indirectly to production for the global market, account for roughly a quarter of employment as well as a quarter of labour productivity growth in Europe. Projecting growth out to 2025, using growth accounting projections, productivity remains the critical factor for a recovery of Europe's future growth performance. Large differences between individual European countries have emerged. The paper sketches four possible growth scenarios which describe the possible \"states\" Europe may find itself in 10-12 years' time, using a strengthening of supply-side capabilities, including productivity and innovation, and global demand for goods and services at the key dimensions defining the future states of the union.

+{"text":"From the construction of \"new socialist countryside\" to the proposal of \"full coverage of village planning,\" rural construction has gradually been pushed to a climax. However, the current situation of rural landscape construction in China is not optimistic. On the one hand, the rural landscape deviates from its rural and regional characteristics due to deliberately seeking novelty and differences. Based on these two extreme development trends, this article uses virtual reality technology to construct a rural landscape virtual-roaming system, and randomly select 25 people, each group of 5 people, a total of 3 groups, enter the system in batches with a real reduction degree of 30%, 45%, 60%, 75%, and 80% for experimentation and score the system after the experience. The true reduction degree of the first group is 30%; the true reduction degree of the second group is 45%; the true reduction degree of the third group is 60%; the true reduction degree of the fourth group is 75%; and the true reduction degree of the fifth group is 80%. After analyzing the experimental data, it is concluded that when the true reduction degree of the system goes from low to high, people's satisfaction is higher; when the true reduction degree is as high as 80%, the satisfaction is as high as 9 points; when the true reduction degree of the system goes from low to high, people's sense of immersion is getting deeper and deeper. When the true reduction degree is 30%, the lowest score for immersion is 1 point; when the true reduction degree is 80%, the lowest score for immersion is 7.5 points; the true reduction of the system decreases from high to low; when it is high, people's interaction degree becomes stronger and stronger. When the true reduction degree is 30%, the lowest interaction degree score is 2 points; when the true reduction degree is 80%, the lowest interaction degree score is 9 points; it can be seen from this that, with the increase in the degree of realism of the rural landscape virtual-roaming system, it is extremely difficult for people to find whether they are in the virtual or the reality, and their immersion in virtual reality is getting deeper and deeper. This test also confirmed the superiority of the virtual roaming system in rural landscapes, and the experience is extremely effective.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":233963142,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3130737266","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1155\/2021\/6693143","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/mpe\/2021\/6693143.pdf","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The recruitment of lymphocytes via the a4[37 receptor to the gut has been associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

(37 knock-out (K\/O) mice were immunized with (37 wild-type (WT) mouse splenocytes with cell-surface (37. As a final boost, mice were injected with human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), with a rationale of boosting epitopes shared between murine and human (37. Immune sera and clones generated by hybridoma technology were screened using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and flow cytometry. Despite binding to both mouse cells and PBMCs expressing a4(37, the mAb produced is unlikely to be anti-a4(37 because it generated a different staining pattern than the positive control, ACT-1, on T cell subsets that migrate to the gut.

+{"text":"Time-dependent excitation spectroscopy coupled with quantum chemical calculations is used to demonstrate that the photoluminescence (PL) resulting from the ultraviolet optical pumping of an etched porous silicon (PS) surface results from a silicon oxyhydride-like fluorophor bound to the PS surface. The time-dependent PL, in both aqueous (HF\/H{sub 2}O and HF\/CH{sub 3}OH\/H{sub 2}O) and nonaqueous [MeCN\/HF (anhydrous)] etching media, has been monitored both in situ, during the etching cycle and before the PS sample is removed from the etching solution, and ex situ, after removal of the PS sample from the etching solution. The early appearance in time of the PS luminescence is consistent with the formation of a surface bound emitter created on a time scale ({le}10s) much shorter than that needed for pore formation. Laser excitation spectra (PLE) over the wavelength range extending from 193 to 400 nm produce an almost identical time-dependent PL emission feature between 550 and 700 nm. Influenced strongly by the chemical composition of the etch solution, an intermediate {open_quotes}green{close_quotes} emitter can be excited with select laser pumping wavelengths and observed to transform to the final {open_quotes}orange-red{close_quotes} luminescent product. In conjunction with experiments whose focus has been to compare the time-dependent PL after ArF (193more\u00a0\u00bb nm) and N{sub 2} (337 nm) laser excitation (PLE), the data suggest the pumping of an excited-state manifold for a molecule-like species followed by rapid relaxation via nonradiative transitions down the manifold and the subsequent emission of radiation at much longer wavelength. Detailed quantum chemical modeling supports this interpretation and suggests a correlation to changes in the bonding associated with electronic transitions that involve silanone-like ground electronic singlet states and their low-lying triplet excitons. Especially important are those changes involving SiO related bonds.

Yet, a disadvantage is that digital signatures are volatile, being valid only for a maximum of a few years, depending on the validity of the asymmetric private key used to create that digital signature.

Relevant aspects are the required numbers, the proposed application, the required mechanical properties, the cycle and process times, additional functional criteria, and of course the costs.

Feed is the most important element for labi-labi survival in captivity, because the species are not able to feed themselves. The limited information of composition and preference level of labi-labi in captivity becomes an obstacle in the management of labi-labi. This research aimed to determine the composition, amount of feed (weight), the level of preference to the type of feed and the nutritional content of each type of feed consumed by A. cartlaginea in captivity. The calculation of feed was conducted by using a complete randomized design and Neu's Index to determine the level of preference for the feed type. The result showed that A. cartlaginea had a level of preference for certain types of feed with a daily feed consumption rate of about 83%. The composition of the type of feed consumed daily in the form of cassava, which was about 83%, was the most preferred type of feed among other types of feed that were catfish about 11% and chicken intestine about 6%.

Also, the effect of RSB and RSC applications on the growth of sunflower plants and its content of N, P, K, Zn and Cu were studied in the pot experiment. In addition to the properties of the sandy samples and its content of available N, P, K, Zn and Cu were studied. To achieve this study, two experiments were conducted namely, leaching and pots at the laboratory and green house of Soil Sci. Dept., Fac. of Agric., Menoufia Univ., Shebin Elkom, Egypt. The results indicated that, the applications of Biochar resulted in an increase of leachate pH, EC and soluble K and a decrease of soluble NH 4+ , NO 3- , P, Zn and Cu. This decrease was non-significant with NO 3- . Increasing rates of individual applications of compost associated with an increase of EC, soluble HN 4+ , NO 3- , P, K and Zn and a decrease of pH and soluble Cu in leachate. After leaching, application rates of biochar were associated with an increse in soil pH, EC, CEC and available NH4 + , P and k and a decrease in available Zn and Cu. While, the application rates of compost resulted in an increse in EC, CEC and available NH 4+ , NO 3- , P , k, Zn and Cu and a decrease in soil pH. Uptake of N, P and k (mg\/plant) by sunflower plants was increased with biochar rates increasing up to 0.05% biochar compared with the control and decreased with increasing of biochar rates.

The purpose of the glass furnace evaluation is to advance and document incinerator technology for such combustibles as solids, resins, and sludges, and to develop a stable waste form for subsequent disposal. Four (4) waste nonradioactive types were selected to determine the combustion efficiency of the furnace unit: (1) dry solid waste composed of paper, plastics, rubber, and cloth, (2) ion exchange resin of both the anionic and cationic type, (3) filter sludge composed of diatomaceous earth, organic cellulosic filter aid, and powdered ion exchange resin, and (4) cartridge filters having glass and plastic filter surfaces and nonmetallic cores. When completed, the combustion efficiency experiments for the proposed nonradioactive waste-types revealed the ability of the furnace to easily incinerate waste at feedrates of up to 150 lb\/hr. During the course of the experiments, combustibles in the offgas remained consistently low, suggesting excellent combustion efficiency.

+{"text":"The effect of reductive electrochemical doping of nanocrystalline TiO2 electrodes on their photoelectrocatalytic properties and their performance in dye-sensitized solar cells is studied. It is observed that accumulation of negative charge (compensated by proton insertion from the supporting electrolyte) leads to a photocurrent increase for water oxidation. Furthermore, an enhanced photoconversion efficiency in dye-sensitized solar cells is observed for the doped electrodes with respect to the unmodified ones. The effect has been analyzed using small-perturbation electrochemical techniques (impedance spectroscopy, intensity-modulated photovoltage, and photocurrent spectroscopy). The results indicate that the better photoelectrocatalytic and photovoltaic efficiency is due to a more rapid electron transport combined with reduced recombination, contributing to improved electron collection. Furthermore, an enhancement in electron injection is also inferred from the analysis of the present results.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":101897999,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2313590378","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1021\/JP306954Y","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Objectives\/Goals The effects of metabolites produced by the fungus, Cladosporium sp. on crops in the Salinas Valley such as beans and lettuce were determined. This fungus has shown a remarkable suppressive effect on one of the most serious pathogens (Sclerotinia spp.) affecting a wide variety of crops grown in the Salinas Valley. It was hypothesized that the target of Cladosporium sp. is specific to Sclerotinia spp. and it may not be toxic or cause disease on crop plants such as beans and lettuce. Only the latter part of this hypothesis was explored experimentally. Methods\/Materials Bean and lettuce seeds were planted in 16 oz styrofoam cups containing autoclaved sand and watered as needed. Cladosporium was grown in Petri plates containing potato dextrose agar, the culture filtrate was extracted from 20-day-old cultures, and was partially purified by repeated filtration and heating to 80\u00b0C to neutralize the fungus and to concentrate the filtrate. Two dilutions of this filtrate (1:4 and 1:8) and an uninoculated control (0) were the treatments tested in this experiment. When the bean and lettuce seedlings produced two true leaves, 9 bean plants in five styrofoam cups and 15 lettuce plants in five styrofoam cups per replication each were sprayed with each concentration of the culture filtrate and sterile water. For each treatment, there were 4 replications. Plant heights for the bean plants were measured before spraying and at weekly intervals after spraying for 3 weeks. Since lettuce in early stages has a prostate growth, height was not measured. The number of lesions was also measured before and after spraying the culture filtrate or water. At the termination of the experiment, the plants were washed free of soil, dried at 60\u00b0C for 48 hours and weights were taken. The data were analyzed to determine the treatment differences. Results Cladosporium sp. did not affect either the growth of bean or lettuce plants nor cause any disease on these crops. Conclusions\/Discussion After further testing, the suppressive effects of Cladosporium sp. on Sclerotinia spp. can be exploited for disease control in commercial agriculture. Scientists at the University of California, Davis, are currently characterizing this interaction between Cladosporium sp. and Sclerotinia spp. further.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":208221537,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"A 69-year-old male resident of a nursing home presented to the emergency department with complaints of shortness of breath and atypical chest pain. A 12-lead electrocardiogram was done on admission (Figure \u200b(Figure11). \n \n \n \nFigure 1 \n \nAdmission electrocardiogram shows normal sinus rhythm, patient-motion artifacts in the limb leads, and tall R waves in leads V1, and V2. \n \n \n \nThe electrocardiogram was normal except for prominent R waves in the right precordial leads (Vi, V2). The differential diagnosis of tall R waves in these leads includes right ventricular hypertrophy, ventricular septal hypertrophy, posterior myocardial infarct, right bundle branch block, ventricular preexcitation of the Wolff-Parkinson-White type, Duchenne's muscular dystrophy, dextrocardia and\/or rightward displacement of the cardiac apex, and a normal variant (diagnosis of exclusion) (1). \n \nIn this patient, the normal QRS axis in the frontal plane and the absence of right atrial enlargement made right ventricular hypertrophy an unlikely diagnosis. Most patients with posteriorwall myocardial infarcts also have electrocardiographic evidence of inferior-wall myocardial infarction, which was absent in this patient. In cases in which an isolated posterior-wall myocardial infarct is suspected, the use of leads V7 through V9 is helpful to confirm the diagnosis (1). An echocardiogram did not reveal a wall-inotion abnormality or any evidence of septal or right ventricular hypertrophy. The normal QRS duration excluded right bundle branch block. The electrocardiogram showed a normal PR interval and no evidence of delta waves or QRS prolongation to suggest preexcitation of the Wolff-Parkinson-White type. This patient did not have any history to suggest Duchenne's muscular dystrophy, and patients with the disorder do not live to this age. Is this a case of dextrocardia? The answer is in the chest radiograph (Figure \u200b(Figure22). \n \n \n \nFigure 2 \n \nPortable anteroposterior chest radiograph shows loss of volume in the right lung with a shift of the heart and mediastinum to the right. Pleural thickening is present bilaterally, greater on the right. \n \n \n \nA portable anteroposterior chest radiograph showed volume loss in the right lung with mediastinal shift toward the right. The heart was essentially pulled over into the right hemithorax. Pleural thickening and scarring also were present. A history of mycobacterial lung infection treated many years ago was later obtained from the nursing home. The patient had a negative cardiac ischemic workup, had negative sputum smears and cultures for mycobacteria, and was treated for a bacterial lower respiratory infection with resolution of his symptoms. \n \nThe heart and cardiac apex are normally on the left, but either or both may be in the midline or on the right (2). When the malposition is congenital, abnormalities of cardiac morphology often coexist (3\u20137); these are much less common when the malposition is so-called mirror-image dextrocardia as part of complete situs inversus (6, 7). The heart and\/or the cardiac apex also may be in the midline or on the right owing to skeletal, diaphragmatic, or lung abnormalities (6, 7), such as when the heart is pulled over by loss of right-lung volume as in this case or when it is pushed over by eventration of the left hemidiaphragm (8). Tall R waves will be seen in leads V1 and\/or V2 when the ventricular septum is to the right of those leads, and the leads lie over the left ventricle, or when right ventricular enlargement accompanies the cardiac malposition.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":35661968,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1650587401","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1080\/08998280.2004.11928016","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/www.tandfonline.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1080\/08998280.2004.11928016?needAccess=true","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The First World War is a prominent point of convergence for modernist studies and early twentieth-century cultural studies. Both disciplines have scrutinised the impact of the First World War on literary and cultural production, with an increasing willingness to extend their scope to hitherto neglected sources. The academic canon was subject to an ongoing process of revision begun by feminist, queer and Marxist critics in the 1980s. In the wake of a rise in social and cultural historiography, historical inquiry into the war has moreover shifted from mere 'factual' evidence to the extensive consideration of literary sources. However, the questions put to these sources and their evaluation as material for academic study often differ widely between the two fields. This article interrogates literary and historical practices regarding 'modernist' writing on the First World War, and illustrates the at times considerable tensions between the two approaches by a new critical reading of Mary Borden's The Forbidden Zone (1929).1 Borden's work is representative of both contemporary and retrospective expectations connected with literary testimonies of the First World War, and the second half of this article argues that current readings of her work are affected by conflicting demands on war writing. The fact that Borden is not only a war writer but also a woman who served near the frontline as a nurse, opens up another layer of complication in her writing and its critical reception, which will be considered below.

However, the current fabrication technology for Sb2S3 solar cells relies heavily on a high\u2010purity Sb2S3 source, which limits its large\u2010scale deployment. Therefore, it is attractive to fabricate the Sb2S3 solar cells directly from the raw stibnite source, which can be cost effective by avoiding the complicated, costly purification and refinement process of the stibnite ore, while reducing process\u2010emitted pollution. Herein, high\u2010quality Sb2S3 films (thickness: \u22481\u2009\u03bcm) by the vapor transport deposition of raw stibnite ore powder are obtained, followed by a sulfurization process to remove the surface oxides and facilitate alkali element redistribution.

+{"text":"Humanitarian aid workers who try to provide aid to the most vulnerable populations in the Middle East or Africa are risking their own lives and safety to help others. The current lack of a collaborative real-time information system to predict threats prevents responders and local partners from developing a shared understanding of potentially threatening situations, causing increased response times and leading to inadequate protection. To solve this problem, this paper presents a threat detection and decision support system that combines knowledge and information from a network of responders with automated and modular threat detection. The system consists of three parts. It first collects textual information, ranging from social media, and online news reports to reports and text messages from a decentralized network of humanitarian staff. Second, the system uses deep neural network techniques to automatically detects a threat or incident and provide information including location, threat category, and casualties. Third, given the type of threat and the information extracted by the NER, a feedforward network proposes a mitigation plan based on humanitarian standard operating procedures. The classified information is rapidly redistributed to potentially affected humanitarian workers at any level. The system testing results show a high precision of 0.91 and 0.98 as well as an F-measure of 0.87 and 0.88 in detecting the threats and decision support respectively. We thus combine the collaborative intelligence of a decentralized network of aid workers with the power of deep neural networks.

SAH has an incidence of 6.3 per 100,000 persons per year in Europe and accounts for 5% of all strokes. SAH occurs at a relatively young age and has poor clinical outcomes and high mortality rates. Cardiac syndromes are regularly seen in patients with acute neurologic disease including SAH. These cardiac complications of SAH are associated with increased morbidity and mortality and present in a large variety and severity. Areas covered The main goal of this review is to describe the SAH-related cardiac syndromes. Secondly, we will provide an overview of the underlying pathophysiology regarding the development of cardiac syndromes. Thirdly, we will describe the impact of cardiac syndromes on patient outcome. Expert opinion Of all neurology patients, SAH patients have the highest risk of developing takotsubo syndrome (TTS), occurring in about 0.8\u201330% of patients. Both TTS and neurogenic stunned myocardium have many similarities on echocardiographic evaluation.

The synchronous motor-generator pair (MGP) system was proposed as a new grid-connection method to improve the inertial response and frequency stability of grids. To study the effects of the MGP on the frequency stability and penetration rate of RES in power grids, first the frequency response equations of a single MGP in a single-machine infinite bus system are derived; then, the system frequency response (SFR) model for a multi-machine system with the MGP integrated is built. By comparing key critical indices of the frequency response after step disturbance with this model, we discover that the MGP system can increase the upper limit penetration rate of RES by quite a percentage. Furthermore, time domain simulations are used to compare the frequency characteristics of RES penetration rates of 25%, 50% and 75% with and without MGP.

Thirteen dominant weed species persistently occurring in maize fields in south-western Poland were examined. Regardless of the soil type and farm size, the most abundant weed species were Echinochloa crus-galli and Chenopodium album.

+{"text":"Phalaenopsis orchids are an increasingly popular potted house plant in the United States. New cultivars have a long display life in home environments, but these epiphytes are often overirrigated by consumers. Irrigating potted Phalaenopsis orchids weekly with ice cubes has been recommended as a simple solution to help consumers, but concern has been raised about whether the ice cubes will cause low temperature damage in these tropical plants. The effect of ice cube irrigation on the display life and quality of four cultivars of potted Phalaenopsis orchids was, therefore, evaluated. Irrigation treatments includedweekly application of three ice cubes or the equivalent volume of room-temperature tap water. The longevity of individual flowers and the overall display life of the orchid plants were determined. Monthly measurements determined the volume of leachate in the outer decorative pots after irrigation. The quantum yield of photosystem II (FPSII) in roots and leaves was evaluatedmonthly to determine if photosynthetic efficiencywas affected by the ice irrigation. The temperature in the orchid bark growing media during irrigation events was recorded, and a programmable antifreeze bath was used to determine the temperature at which damage to PSII was observed in orchid roots. The flower longevity and display life were unaffected by irrigation treatment. In general, the leachate volume over time was the same or lower in ice irrigated orchids comparedwith those irrigatedwith the same volume of water. The lowest temperature in the barkmedia irrigated with ice cubes was'11 8C, while controlled freezing experiments showed that damage to photosystem II in orchid roots did not occur until bath temperatures were belowL7 8C. The internal temperature of roots in direct contactwith ice cubes decreased to around 4 8C. Ice cube irrigation had no detrimental effects on the quality or display life of potted Phalaenopsis orchids growing in bark, demonstrating that ice cubes are a viable method of irrigating these tropical house plants. Orchids are currently the top-selling potted flowering plant in the United States because of their long flower life and compact growth (Banks, 2005; Fitch, 2004; USDA, 2016). While the popularity of many potted plants is declining, the number of orchids that are sold each year is increasing. Most commercial orchid sales are Phalaenopsis sp., also called moth orchids (Griesbach, 2002). The USDA Floriculture Crops Summary reported the wholesale value of potted orchids (including Phalaenopsis) to be $288 million in 2015, an increase of $15 million over the 2014 value (USDA, 2016). The introduction of improved hybrids and the development of large-scale production protocols that reduce the time required to produce flowering plants have allowed potted orchids to be grown for mass-market consumers (Griesbach, 2002). Phalaenopsis species, which originate from tropical and subtropical climates, have a long flower display life in the typical temperatures and low light levels of a home (Banks, 2005). These orchids are epiphytic in their native environments and grow on trees with their roots exposed to the air (Banks, 2005). The roots of Phalaenopsis orchids contain chlorophyll and are photosynthetic (Dycus and Knudson, 1957; Lopez and Runkle, 2005). Commercial production of Phalaenopsis is usually in a bark-based potting media that allows for good aeration and drainage (Griesbach, 2002). In the home environment, proper irrigation is the largest challenge to maintaining a healthy potted orchid. Underwatering the plant will result in wrinkled, flaccid leaves, whereas overwatering or letting the orchid sit in water can result in damaged roots (Cullina, 2004). Healthy roots of Phalaenopsis are vivid green when the plant is well-watered, and they have a silvery hue when dry. Unhealthy roots are tan or brown (Cullina, 2004). The technique of irrigating Phalaenopsis orchids with ice cubes has been recommended to orchid owners to reduce the likelihood of overor underwatering the plants (Onofrey, 2009). Ice cubes provide a convenient way to apply a set volume of water, which is released slowly as the ice melts. The idea is that the ice melt will move slowly through the porous bark media, allowing more water to be absorbed by the bark and roots and resulting in less water accumulation in the bottom of pots where it may cause root damage. Concerns about this technique include whether the melting ice will provide enough water for proper plant growth and whether the ice will cause low temperature damage or reduce the display life of the plants (Cullina, 2004). Even brief exposure to low temperatures can cause chilling injury (CI) in tropical species (Wang, 2007). Mesophyll cell collapse is a physiological disorder that can occur in orchid leaves exposed to low air or water temperatures (Cating and Palmateer, 2009; Sheehan, 2002). Symptoms include the development of sunken, light-green to yellow areas on the upper surfaces of the leaves, which then turn brown and necrotic. The severity of the CI is dependent on the temperature, duration of exposure, and physiological age of the leaves (McConnell and Sheehan, 1978). Exposure to 2 C for 8 h causes mesophyll cell collapse in Phalaenopsis leaves. Water soaked spots on the upper surface of the leaves can be observed 0.5 h after removal from the chilling temperature treatment and these progress to deeply sunken dark brown spots within 3 weeks (McConnell and Sheehan, 1978). While CI can be induced in the leaves of some Phalaenopsis species at temperatures below 10 C, there is no information about root damage or what temperatures the roots experience when plants are irrigated with ice cubes. The objectives of this research were to 1) evaluate the effect of ice cube irrigation on the flower longevity, display life, and quality of potted Phalaenopsis orchids growing in bark; 2) measure the temperature of the bark Received for publication 13 June 2017.

Materials and Methods Plant material. Potted orchids (Phalaenopsis sp.) were received on 21 Jan. 2016 at the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center in Wooster, OH, and on 22 Jan. 2016 at the University of Georgia, Athens, GA. The orchids were transported on a temperature-controlled truck from Green Circle Growers (Oberlin, OH). Plants were growing in a custom bark media (95% bark and 5% sphagnum peatmoss; Oldcastle Lawn and Garden, Columbus, OH) in round, 11.5-cm plastic pots (700 mL volume) inside decorative ceramic pots. The orchids were at a market-ready stage with two flower spikes per plant and three to five open flowers on each spike. Four popular commercial cultivars, 699, 322, 386, and 56-100975, were used in all experiments except where noted. Expt. 1. Evaluating the effects of ice cube irrigation on the quality and display life of potted Phalaenopsis orchids Experimental set up and environmental conditions. Experiments were conducted at two locations (Wooster, OH and Athens, GA) in an interior evaluation room set up to simulate an office or home environment. These locations are referred to as OH and GA, respectively. All windows in the rooms were blocked, and light was provided by fluorescent lights from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM daily. The average photosynthetic photon flux (PPF) in the room at plant height in OH was 7.8 mmol\u00b7m\u00b7s, and the range was from 3.0 to 12.5 mmol\u00b7m\u00b7s across the room (LI-190R Quantum; LI-COR BioSciences, Lincoln, NE). In GA, the PPF was 6.8 mmol\u00b7m\u00b7s, and the range was 3.7 to 10.0 mmol\u00b7m\u00b7s across the room (LI-190SA; LICOR BioSciences). The plants were blocked to account for the varying PPF. The temperature set point in each room was 21 C. In OH, a relative humidity around 40% was maintained using a humidifier (Space Saver Evaporative Humidifier Model 831000; Aircare, Little Rock, AZ). The mean relative humidity in GA was 49% \u00b1 9%. The mean room temperature over the entire experiment was 21.2 Cwith a range of 14.5 to 28.7 C in OH (January to July), and a mean of 22.0 C and a range of 14.0 to 26.9 C in GA (January to May). Temperature and humidity were monitored using a Watchdog (Model 2475 Plant Growth Station; Spectrum Technologies Inc., Plainfield, IL) or a temperature\/ humidity data logger (Hobo U12; Onset Computers, Bourne, MA). Fans were used to increase air circulation, and in OH, air samples were collected monthly to measure ethylene levels in the evaluation room using a gas chromatograph (Varian 3800; Agilent, Foster City, CA). Ethylene was not detected during the experiment. Treatments. Orchids were arranged on tables in a split-plot randomized complete block design that accounted for the gradient in PPF.

+{"text":"As a part of the International Remote Monitoring Project, during March 1995, a Remote Monitoring System (RMS) was installed at the Embalse Nuclear Power Station in Embalse, Argentina. This system monitors the status of four typical Candu spent fuel dry storage silos. The monitoring equipment for each silo consists of analog sensors for temperature and gamma radiation measurement; digital sensors for motion detection; and electronic fiber-optic seals. The monitoring system for each silo is connected to a wireless Authenticate Item Monitoring System (AIMS). This paper describes the operation of the RMS during the first year of the trial and presents the results of the signals reported by the system compared with the on site inspections conducted by the regulatory bodies, ABACC, IAEA, ENREN.

For that, we estimate a threshold model for the CBC's policy rule that allows the existence of two policy regimes according to whether the output gap, the inflation deviation or the GDP growth is above or below a threshold value. Also, we assess the possible effects of estimated monetary policy rules in the achievement of the inflation target by simulating a standard New Keynesian Model with endogenous switching parameters. Estimations show that the monetary authority responds strongly to inflation deviations but weakly to the output gap when the gap is larger than a specific threshold value. Furthermore, there is statistical evidence that the CBC reacts faster moving the interest rate under expansion periods. These results are robust when assuming an unknown threshold value and to real-time estimation.

+{"text":"Simulation is defined as a technique for imitating the evolution of a real system by studying a model of the system. The model is an abstraction, a simplified and convenient mathematical representation of the actual system, typically coded and run as a computer program.

The term stochastic simulation sometimes is used synonymously with the Monte-Carlo method. \n \n \n \nStochastic simulation is regarded as mathematical experimentation and is appropriate for complex systems, whose study based on analytical methods is laborious or even impossible. For such systems, stochastic simulation provides an easy means to explore their behavior by answering specific 'what if' questions. Moreover, stochastic simulation can be viewed as a numerical method for solving mathematical problems in several fields such as statistical inference, optimization, integration, and even equation solving. Under certain conditions, stochastic simulation is more powerful than other more common numerical methods (e.g., numerical integration of high-dimensional differential equations). \n \n \n \nDue to their complexity, hydrosystems, including water resource systems, flood management systems, and hydropower systems, are frequently studied using stochastic simulation. A generalized solution procedure for hydrosystems problems, including systems identification, modeling and forecasting, hydrologic design, water resources management, and flood management, is dicussed. Emphasis is given on the stochastic representation of hydrologic processes, which have a dominant role in hydrosystems. Peculiarities of hydrologic and other geophysical processes (seasonality, long-term persistence, intermittency, skewness, spatial variability) gave rise to substantial research that resulted in numerous stochastic tools appropriate for applications in hydrosystems. Four examples of such tools are discussed: (1) the multivariate periodic autoregressive model of order 1 [PAR(1)], which reproduces seasonality and skewness but not long-term persistence; (2) a generalized multivariate stationary model that reproduces all kinds of persistence and simultaneously skewness but not seasonality; (3) a combination of the previous two cases in a multivariate disaggregation framework that can respect almost all peculiarities except intermittency; and (4) the Bartlett-Lewis process that is appropriate for modeling rainfall and emphasizes its intermittent character on a fine time scale. \n \n \nKeywords: \n \nhydrologic persistence; \nhurst phenomenon; \nhydrosystems; \nintermittency; \nmultivariate model; \npoint processes; \nreliability; \nseasonality; \nsimulation; \nspatial variability; \nstochastic hydrology; \nstochastic models; \nstochastic processes; \nstochastic simulation; \nstochastic disaggregation; \ntemporal variability","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":122755401,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2146745081","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1002\/047147844X.SW913","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"In this study, the job performance of school administrators, a significant factor of school effectiveness, was discussed. Accordingly, the aim of the survey is to examine the relationship between burnout, commitment to school and the job performance of school administrators. 320 school administrators working in public schools in Turkey participated in the research. In the research, causal comparative design and correlational survey model, which are among the quantitative research methods, were used. The data of the study were collected using the \"Burnout Measure\", \"Organizational Commitment Scale\" and \"Job Performance Scale\". Descriptive and evidential statistics techniques were used in the analysis of the data. As a result of the research, it was determined that especially the job performances were at a very high level according to the perceptions of school administrators. School administrators' level of burnout was found to be low despite their medium level of commitment to school. A negative and very weak correlation was found between school administrators' burnout and their organizational commitment. When analyzed in terms of demographic variables, the job performance of the principals was higher than that of the assistant principals. Burnout of assistant principals was found to be higher than that of principals. In addition, it was revealed that female school administrators' burnout was higher than that of male school administrators. Demographic variables did not make a significant difference on the organizational commitment of school administrators. In the study, it was also founded that the burnout of school administrators and the continuance commitment dimension of their organizational commitment to their schools are significant predictors of their job performance.

+{"text":"In its influential publication Save and Grow, the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO) proposed a new paradigm of intensive farm production, one that is both highly productive and environmentally sustainable (FAO, 2011). It stems from the recognition that, over the past half-century, agriculture based on the intensive use of inputs has increased global food production and average per capita food consumption. In the process, however, it has depleted the natural resources of many agro-ecosystems, jeopardising future productivity, and added to the greenhouse gases responsible for climate change. At the global level, it has not significantly reduced the number of chronically hungry, which FAO (2011) estimated to be 870 million people. The subtitle of Save and Grow is A policymaker's guide to the sustainable intensification of smallholder crop production, and this reflects an emphasis on helping family farms to achieve higher productivity, profitability and resource use efficiency, while enhancing natural capital. 'Sustainable intensification' of agricultural production, or 'producing more with less', has been widely adopted as a policy approach by national governments and international agencies, with 'sustainable' including the economic (e.g. profitability of farming), environmental (e.g. minimising unfavourable environmental impacts) and social (e.g. maintaining farming communities) dimensions. In particular, sustainable intensification is consistent with the European Union's (EU) Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), which has for many years been built on the idea of a 'European Model of Agriculture', based on family farming and consisting of a competitive and diverse agricultural sector that is environmentally responsible and addresses issues of food quality and animal welfare (Lowe et al., 2002; Swain, 2013). Sustainable intensification will be facilitated through onfarm innovation, by combining traditional knowledge with modern technologies. The term 'innovation' can be used to refer to either a process or an outcome. Through the process of innovation, individuals or organisations master and implement the design and production of goods and services that are new to them, irrespective of whether they are new to their competitors, their country, or the world (World Bank, 2006). The resulting innovation can be a technologically new or remarkably improved product, service, process, a new marketing or management method in the business practice, organisation or external relationship (OECD, 2005). OECD\/Eurostat (2018) uses the term 'innovation activities' to refer to the process, while the term 'innovation' is limited to outcomes. Change can involve farm products, production processes and\/or farm organisation and management. In addition to facilitating sustainable intensification, innovation helps farmers to expand, change or diversify their marketable output, thereby increasing the profitability of their farms, to free up resources for use in other economic activities, or enhance the provision of important ecosystem services (FAO, 2014). But innovators rarely work in isolation and the process of innovation is fostered by knowledge sharing between actors with complementary forms of knowledge (Fieldsend et al., 2020). These actors, their organisations, the knowledge flows between them and the so-called 'enabling environment' constitute an 'agricultural innovation system' (AIS). The changes in the physical, social and economic environment for agriculture are being accompanied by increasAndrew F.

+{"text":"Cocaine inhibits dopamine (DA) and norepinephrine (NE) uptake by blocking DA and NE transporters (DATs and NETs, respectively). We have classified outbred male Sprague\u2010Dawley rats given an acute low dose of cocaine (10 mg\/kg, i.p.) as either low or high cocaine responders (LCRs or HCRs, respectively) based on the median split of the first 30 min of cocaine\u2010induced locomotor activity. This model of differential individual responsiveness to cocaine has revealed that LCRs, which exhibit greater cocaine\u2010induced locomotor sensitization, reward and reinforcement, have more striatal DATs at baseline than HCRs. To examine if basal NET numbers also differ, here we quantitated indirect saturation binding with a NET inhibitor ([3H]nisoxetine, 4 nM) in hippocampal membranes 35 min after acute cocaine. As expected, HCRs (n = 9) exhibited ~4 fold greater cocaine\u2010induced locomotor activity than LCRs (n = 7). Affinities of hippocampal NETs (Kd = 5 nM) did not differ significantly between LCRs and HCRs. In contrast, LCRs had 41% more hippocampal NET binding sites than HCRs (Bmax = 137 vs. 97 fmol\/mg protein, respectively; p < 0.05, t\u2010test). Whether these differences in NET number result in corresponding functional differences still must be determined.

Consequently, many new practices of systems implementation emerged, among them, the use of different domain specific modelling languages (DSMLs) to represent the same system. Indeed, complex systems are composed by many components sometimes belonging to various domains. Thus, many teams of experts collaborate to develop such systems. Moreover, teams tend to use different DSMLs to design their concerns. This new practice generates an accidental heterogeneity due to production of various heterogeneous models representing a same system. However, those heterogeneous models need absolutely to be coordinated to facilitate communication between stakeholders and of course to ease implementation and validation of systems. This paper proposes a composition interface\u2013 based approach to coordinate and integrate heterogeneous DSMLs in order to coordinate their models. The proposed composition interface is defined according to Bridge Design Pattern.

Lesson study is applied to the planning (plan), implementation (do), and reflection (see) phases implemented in three cycles. Based on the results of reflection at the stage of the 1st, found problems at the stage of lecturing that some activities do not take place effectively. This ineffectiveness appears in apperception, group discussion, and student presentations. As a result, the implementation time of the activity is longer than planned. This problem is no longer visible in the 2nd as a result of the 1st reflection. Although generally show improvement of lecture activity, but still found problem that is lack of understanding of student concept. So in the 3rd do a review related all the materials that have been studied in this lesson study.

In particular, the flat bones of the skull are comprised of the outer and inner tables (cortical bone) and the diploe (trabecular bone) on the interior. This microstructure results in both scattering and absorption of incident pressure waves. A clear understanding of these effects is needed if pressure profiles within the brain are to be accurately modeled. The focus of this presentation is on finite element wave simulations that have been developed to account for this complex organization. The models are first used to examine the scattering attenuation and coherency loss resulting from the microstructure as a function of incidence angle and frequency for plane wave incident pressure profiles.

+{"text":"Alphonse de Candolle in 1855 proposed that the boundaries to major plant formations were set by climate. He suggested that the limits to deserts and grasslands were set by moisture, but that the latitudinal arrangement of the other plant formations indicated temperature as the dominant factor. Koppen (1884, 1931) developed climate maps based on vegetation types. In this way, he was able to produce a climate map of the world even though he had very little climatic data from many parts of it. He assigned to each plant formation the climate that seemed appropriate to it. Since his climate map was based on the global distribution of vegetation types, it is not surprising that climate and vegetation maps were similar. It has subsequently been shown that the distribution of the world's climatic regions is indeed closely related to vegetation and Koppen's vegetation-derived climate map has now been verified through climatic measurements. Clearly climate plays a major role in determining the global distribution of plants and animals and Figures 1.1 and 1.2 show the close relationship between rainfall and vegetation in Africa. This chapter describes climate in the tropics and how it differs from that found in temperate regions. It describes how the world's climate is changing through an enhancement of the greenhouse effect (global warming), and how this climate change is impacting tropical ecosystems. Variations in climate regime and soil type mainly determine the regional distribution of vegetation types and, hence, animal communities, and these patterns are studied by biogeographers. An explanation of these plant and animal distributions also requires an understanding of the theory of plate tectonics.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":129242957,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2120276963","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1017\/CBO9781139057868.002","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Modern science historiography views astronomy development since antiquity solely on human interaction with nature. Such a secular evolutionary view is derived from the positivistic paradigm. In contrast, the Islamic science historiography perspective explains astronomy development since antiquity primarily based on revealed knowledge, while the scientific method is employed accordingly. Even so, there are differences among scholars in elucidating Islamic science historiography which is classified into two dimensions. The first dimension focuses on the philosophical aspects that underline the historical narrative and the second dimension prioritises scientific evidence. The question is how these differences could be reconciled so that the historical narrative of astronomy development that emerged from modern science historiography would be more coherent with Islamic science historiography. Therefore, this library study was conducted using data collection based on the documentation method and a content analysis method was employed for data analysis. As a result, the Priority Principle from fiqh al-awlawiyyat as a strategic locus to reconcile the differences in Islamic science historiography was identified. The principle prioritises the role of Allah, the prophets and the revelations according to Shariah and the scientific method is used suitably. It is also crucial to be emphasised in addressing the secular evolutionary view that underlie astronomy development. It is thus concluded that astronomy development from antiquity to Islamic civilization can be marked as starting from the time of Prophet Adam and will be over at the end of time.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":259708246,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.22452\/jat.vol18no1.14","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYNC","url":"https:\/\/ejournal.um.edu.my\/index.php\/JAT\/article\/download\/40747\/15733","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Under the conditions, however, the rate of total electron flow (Je) was constant within the wide range of CO2 concentrations. On the other hand, when leaves were illuminated with high actinic light, down regulation of PS II was induced even at high CO2 conditions. This phenomenon was analyzed in relation to the maximal activity of photorespiration. We found that the down regulation of PS II is induced when the electron flux (Je) became larger than the flux JPR.

+{"text":"The question has been raised whether the medical fee schedule is very low in Korea. However, studies that empirically address this matter on a national scale are rare. This study attempted to determine the level of Korea's medical fees for caesarean section (C-section), cataract, and appendectomy surgeries by comparing and analyzing them with other Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) countries' medical cost data obtained from other studies. There are two ways to compare the level of medical fees: one is a direct comparison, which obtains each country's medical fee schedule and compares them with each other. Another is indirect comparison, a method which compares data such as physician income. For direct comparison, fees were calculated using data provided by the OECD and Health Insurance Review and Assessment. For indirect comparison by physician income, data obtained from Korea Employment Information Services were used to represent Korean physician income. When compared with other OECD countries, the results suggest that, overall, the Korean fee schedule could be low, based on the fees for C-section, cataract, and appendectomy surgeries. The study results also confirm that Korean physicians' average earnings ranked relatively low among OECD countries. These results are meaningful in that they empirically support the contention that Korean medical fees could be low. In addition, under what is known as national health insurance, in which the medical fee schedule is determined by a single payer, an empirical analysis on medical fee levels, as in this study, has substantial political implications because it may be utilized for medical fee schedule negotiation in the near future. An attempt to directly research fees and the range of services of OECD countries is still needed in order to provide more established data.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":73162976,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2109456968","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.5124\/JKMA.2013.56.6.523","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Different distribution patterns of picoplankton abundance and biomass were observed according to season and culture areas (bivalves or macroalgae). Synechococcus, picoeukaryotes and heterotrophic prokaryotes exhibited higher abundance and biomass in warm seasons (summer and autumn) than in cold seasons (spring and winter). Over all 4 seasons, picoplankton abundance was higher in the bivalve culture area than in the macroalgae culture area. Among picoplankton, picoeukaryotes contributed most to the carbon standing stock in summer and autumn. In spring and winter, the heterotrophic component biomass exceeded that of the autotrophic picoplankton. Picoeukaryotes were an important contributor (21-27%) to total phytoplankton carbon biomass in spring to autumn. In spring, heterotrophic prokaryote biomass accounted for more than 56% of total phytoplankton biomass, and even exceeded phytoplankton biomass at some stations. As revealed by multiple stepwise regression analysis, physicochemical factors and protist grazing were the most important variables that controlled picoplankton distribution and variation. The reduction in grazing pressure, as well as phosphorus release by bivalves, is likely to explain the higher abundance of picoplankton in the bivalve culture area of Sanggou Bay.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":53516775,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2341112134","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3354\/AEI00168","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Currently, most methods utilizing drug-based and protein-based similarity values to predict DTIs achieve promising results. However, calculating similarities for each pair of nodes is time-consuming, especially for relatively large datasets. In this research, we propose a novel subgraph-oriented heterogeneous DTI identification method that transforms the DTI task from a link prediction task to a subgraph classification task. For each link, a local subgraph around this link is extracted. Then, a subgraph labeling process distinguishes different topologies of subgraphs. A random walk-based node representation generation is also integrated with the model. Finally, we apply a graph neural network for the subgraph classification. Our method avoids incorporating human-made similarity values by extracting more meaningful local subgraph topological information. Experimental studies for known DTI predictions on two DTI datasets show promising results for DTI prediction. Empirical results for new DTI predictions on two external public databases show the generalization ability of the proposed method.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":260386913,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/IJCNN54540.2023.10191473","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Aquatic vegetation of different heights is widely scattered in natural rivers and is conducive to their environmental function while affecting the flow hydrodynamic conditions. A semi-analytical velocity model is constructed and used to study the longitudinal velocity profile in open channel flow through double-layered rigid vegetation. The double-layered vegetation flow is separated into three zones according to the velocity profile: 1) nearly uniform distributed velocity zone 1A in the lower region of the short vegetation layer, 2) a mixing layer zone B, 3) uniform distributed velocity zone 2A in the upper region of the tall vegetation layer. Two force equilibrium equations about the gravity-driving and vegetation drag are solved to obtain the uniform velocity distribution equations in zone 1A and 2A. The velocity of zone 1A and B is further modeled as a linear superposition of two concepts: the uniform velocity distribution term of zone 1A and a hyperbolic tangent profile. Meanwhile, longitudinal velocity and the lateral vorticity profiles of open channel flow through double-layered rigid vegetation are studied by laboratory flume tests of different vegetation arrangements exposed to two water depths and three slopes. The experimental results show that the longitudinal velocity increases with the slope increase. The verification of the velocity model is based on the instantaneous velocity measured by Acoustic Doppler Velocimetry (ADV), which shows acceptable agreement, indicating that the model can give a reference to the longitudinal velocity of multi-layered vegetation flow in some cases. The effects of wake vortices and boundary friction on the model are further explored in the discussions. The results presented in this study could contribute to the management of aquatic vegetation configurations and the restoration of freshwater ecology.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":255601006,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3389\/fenvs.2022.1094572","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/www.frontiersin.org\/articles\/10.3389\/fenvs.2022.1094572\/pdf","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Background: Much remains to be learned about the causes of several major cancers. Implementing and sustaining global initiatives aimed to advance cancer research requires concerted efforts among government agencies, the industry and philanthropic institutions. Aiming to tackle this challenge, in 2015 the Azrieli Foundation, Canada's International Development Research Centre, the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, and the Israel Science Foundation launched the Joint Canada-Israel Health Research Program (JCIHRP), a 7-year CA$35 million partnership that draws on the scientific strengths of Canadian, Israeli and low and middle income countries (LMICs) researchers in the broad field of biomedicine. Aim: JCIHRP aims to advance research and discovery in the biomedical sciences; encourage scientific collaboration between Canadian and Israeli researchers; and build capacity and foster scientific relations and collaborations with researchers and trainees in LMICs. Methods: JCIHRP will fund up to 30 research projects from 2015 to 2022 in diverse areas of the biomedical sciences (neurosciences, immunology, cancer and metabolism). So far, the program is supporting 9 projects in cancer research. Teams are led by a Canadian and Israeli principal investigators and a collaborator from a LMIC. Three years is the maximum duration of each grant and teams can request up to CA$1.17 million. The program launches 1 competition each year and activities are coordinated by a directors working group, which is responsible for program implementation and coordination among the agencies. Annual implementation timeline can be divided into 4 phases: competition development and application; proposals' eligibility, selection and decision; research phase; and reporting and monitoring. In deploying these phases, the funding partners have shared effort and costs. Results: Among cancer research projects, 4 teams are developing strategies to improve effectiveness of cancer immunotherapy. Five other teams use advanced genomics and protein engineering techniques to elucidate molecular mechanisms associated with tumor development, progression and resistance to therapy in pancreatic, breast, hepatic and brain cancer. These projects are supporting 26 established researchers in 7 Canadian, 6 Israeli and 9 institutions based in Brazil, Mexico, China, India, Argentina and Turkey. Additionally, 19 graduate students and 9 postdoctoral fellows are directly involved in research activities. Type of collaboration can be grouped into 2 categories: research and training (5 projects) and research, training and exchange (4 projects). Conclusion: JCIHRP multicentre funding model allows international integration of researchers promoting scientific advances, new collaborations and enhancing teams' overall competitiveness by prioritizing research topics with potential for global impact in cancer research.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":169691458,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2892583201","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1200\/jgo.18.93900","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYNCND","url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1200\/jgo.18.93900","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"As another alternative approximation method for multi-period dynamic portfolio selection problems, a new model, called the hybrid simulation tree model, has been proposed recently. In that model, the underlying uncertainty is revealed as a simulation tree and, similar to the scenario tree model, different conditional decisions are allowed to be made for different bundles (or groups) of sample paths which exhibit similar performance characteristics. By adopting a fixed-quantity policy, it was formulated as a large-scale linear programming problem, in which the compromise between describing the precision of the underlying uncertainty and making conditional decisions could be well handled within a single framework. Such a model is much more general than the conventional scenario tree model and simulation path model, and is expected to be a promising method with various applications. We extend this approach and combine it with two new ideas: (i) In order to improve the performance, we use the Conditional Value-at-Risk as our risk measure, which is a very important concept in the modern risk management field. (ii) For consideration of preserving the stability of optimal solutions and hedging a shortfall risk, we incorporate two different types of risk chance constraints in our model. Then the problem is formulated as a Second-Order Cone Programming (SOCP) problem, which can be solved efficiently by using some sophisticated mathematical programming software packages. Numerical experiments are also carried out to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed model in hedging against risk.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":15068282,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Insular electrical grids, usually isolated from larger mainland grids, are more prone to having stability issues. These are usually weak and have limited resources in regards to power sources, which adds up with the fact that this type of grids usually lack access to the electricity market. High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) technology presents the possibility of long distance overseas connections that alleviate the effects of these issues. \nUse of HVDC technology is on the rise, its main focus being long distance transport of power. Its effciency and the stability it provides to grids, paired with the aforementioned need for overseas connections and off-shore wind generation have helped it become as common as it is nowadays. \nThe aim of this thesis is to study the behaviour of an insular grid with the presence of HVDC and the needed power converter for the HVDC connection. The behaviour of the system with and without the converter's frequency support will be analyzed. \nA case based on the Majorcan 220kV grid (Balearic Islands, Spain) with an HVDC connection representing a link with the mainland is used to analyze the behaviour of an insular grid with and without the frequency support. \nHVDC presence in the grid is represented by a converter modelled as seen in \"Active and Reactive Power Control of Grid Connected Distributed Generation Systems\" [1]. \nThe tools used for modelling and simulating are MatLab\u00ae 2015b and PSCAD 4.6 EDU. \nMatLab\u00ae is used for running steady state simulations of the grid's behaviour and for initial modelling of the VSC converter. For the first, the MATPOWER X.Y package is used. In regards to the former, the Simulink environment is used. \nPSCAD is used for dynamic analysis of the grid, with and without the power converter's grid frequency support. \nComparison of the MatLab\u00ae 2015b and PSCAD 4.6 EDU simulations show that the dynamic model behaves as it is expected from it. There are no relevant differences from the dynamic and the static models' results. \nThe study of the dynamic behaviour of the system in front of a fault shows that the HVDC connection's grid frequency support alleviates the negative impact that said events have on the grid's frequency. This is done while also reducing the amount of power that needs to be generated with the limited local resources.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":203590699,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2974437284","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

If the incentive compatibility constraint of the higher risk borrowers is binding, the lower-risk borrowers are credit volume rationed such that the constraint holds as an equation. If credit volume rationing is not sufficient to separate the borrower types, there is additionally a rationing of the low-risk borrowers.

+{"text":"This Ph. D. Explores a framework for the development of precision-oriented information retrieval (IR) models. This framework promotes the notion of vocabulary support to model expressive representations used by IR systems. Indeed few modelling framework are available to specify IR systems. We propose such a framework which focuses on the modelling of expressiveness. This framework can be used to choose or to compare models on their level of expressiveness. In this framework we are moving towards the use of an expressive representation of the text. For this, we propose two models that are using representations with strong expressiveness. Both models are based on graphs. Through these two models are similar on their expressiveness, they are opposed on their underlying models. Indeed, we implement our first model with a model derived from conceptual graphs, and the second one with a model derived from the language modelling approach to IR. To use these models on text, we propose the use of a two-step process based on language processing that promotes information coverage. The first step produces an intermediate representation of documents in which each sentence is represented by a graph. This step is domain dependent.

+{"text":"Abstract BACKGROUND AND AIMS Cases of collapsing glomerulopathy in association with COVID-19 infection have been reported worldwide, frequently referred to as COVAN (COVID-19 Associated Nephropathy). Affected patients are almost exclusively of Black ethnicity, likely associated with APOL-1 renal risk variants. There remains a paucity of data on patient outcomes, however, and it is unclear how the natural history of this disease may vary from HIV-associated nephropathy (HIVAN) and other non-viral causes of collapsing FSGS. Here, we present a case series of seven patients with presumed COVAN from a single tertiary UK renal centre; highlighting patient demography, biopsy findings, clinical management and short-term renal outcomes. METHOD We identified all adult patients presenting to our centre with nephrotic syndrome and a renal biopsy demonstrating collapsing glomerulopathy, in association with a positive COVID-19 PCR swab result. Detailed case note reviews were undertaken using electronic health records to extract data relevant to patient demography, co-morbidities, COVID -19 symptoms, renal biopsy findings, treatment and biochemical parameters, both at the time of presentation and during follow-up at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months respectively (where available). RESULTS In total, we identified seven patients with presumed COVAN. Three of the seven patients were male, median age was 60 years (range 25\u201380 years). Six of the seven patients were of Black ethnicity and one patient was of South Asian ethnicity (renal transplant recipient with donor ethnicity unknown). All seven patients had a background of hypertension, 5\/7 had known chronic kidney disease (CKD), 5\/7 had type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and 4\/7 were obese (BMI > 30). In the vast majority of cases, associated COVID-19 symptoms were mild. All patients had profound nephrotic syndrome at the time of renal biopsy, with median urine ACR 1085 mg\/mmol (range 682\u20131380 mg\/mmol) and median serum albumin 15 g\/L (range 8\u201320 g\/L). Two of seven patients had mild AKI (stage 1) and 5\/7 patients had severe AKI (stage 3), with 3 of these patients receiving acute haemodialysis therapy. Management of glomerulopathy was supportive in all cases, including diuresis and anticoagulation (two patients received a short course of oral dexamethasone for their COVID-19 symptoms). ACE inhibitors\/angiotensin receptor blockers were re-introduced in two patients and newly commenced in two further patients during follow-up. At 6 months follow-up, one patient remained dialysis dependant and one patient had ongoing decline in renal function (renal transplant recipient); all other patients achieved at least partial remission, with > 50% reduction in urine ACR and some (but not complete) recovery in renal function (Fig. 1). There were no viral particles identified on direct examination of renal biopsy specimens, but 4\/7 biopsies exhibited tubulo-reticular inclusions, suggesting an interferon-driven systemic inflammatory process. CONCLUSION In this case series of seven COVAN cases from a single tertiary UK centre, we noted that in keeping with reports from North America, Black ethnicity patients were disproportionately affected. Partial remission was achieved in most of our cases with supportive treatment only; however, ongoing monitoring of this cohort is required to better understand longer-term patient outcomes. Testing for APOL-1 gene mutations and molecular testing of biopsy samples for this cohort is also ongoing to facilitate better insights into pathophysiology and risk factors associated with this novel disease.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":248594190,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1093\/ndt\/gfac067.049","PubMedCentral":"9383849","ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1093\/ndt\/gfac067.049","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Buffel grass (Cenchrus ciliaris) is a perennial tussock grass native to parts of Africa and southern Asia but is now distributed throughout much of mainland Australia. Corresponding with its presence in Australia has been an alteration of fire regimes and soil nutrients, and a reduction in floral diversity. We investigated whether buffel grass supported a less diverse community of thrips (order Thysanoptera) compared to the native grasses Cymbopogon ambiguus and Themeda triandra growing in Alice Springs, central Australia. The survey data showed that abundance was highest on buffel grass; however, the thrips community was almost entirely dominated by one species. The thrips communities on the native grasses were similar and markedly more diverse than that on buffel grass, both in terms of species richness and functional feeding groups. Flower feeders constituted the greatest proportion of thrips on all three grasses, but the native grasses also supported leaf feeders and predators. The results indicate that thrips are sensitive to vegetation change, and we suggest that active removal of buffel grass and replacement with local native grasses would help reverse the loss of biodiversity and normal ecological function in urban areas like Alice Springs. We also suggest that the order Thysanoptera is under-utilised in biodiversity research.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":229620678,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3108137089","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1093\/jue\/juaa024","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYNC","url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1093\/jue\/juaa024","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Voids are promising cosmological probes. Nevertheless, every cosmological test based on voids must necessarily employ methods to identify them in redshift space. Therefore, redshift-space distortions (RSD) and the Alcock-Paczynski effect (AP) have an impact on the void identification process itself generating distortion patterns in observations. Using a spherical void finder, we developed a statistical and theoretical framework to describe physically the connection between the identification in real and redshift space. We found that redshift-space voids above the shot noise level have a unique real-space counterpart spanning the same region of space, they are systematically bigger and their centres are preferentially shifted along the line of sight. The expansion effect is a by-product of RSD induced by tracer dynamics at scales around the void radius, whereas the off-centring effect constitutes a different class of RSD induced at larger scales by the global dynamics of the whole region containing the void. The volume of voids is also altered by the fiducial cosmology assumed to measure distances, this is the AP change of volume. These three systematics have an impact on cosmological statistics. In this work, we focus on the void size function. We developed a theoretical framework to model these effects and tested it with a numerical simulation, recovering the statistical properties of the abundance of voids in real space. This description depends strongly on cosmology. Hence, we lay the foundations for improvements in current models of the abundance of voids in order to obtain unbiased cosmological constraints from redshift surveys.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":220713264,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3044725304","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1093\/mnras\/staa3252","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":"2007.12064"},"license":"CCBYNCSA","url":"https:\/\/ri.conicet.gov.ar\/bitstream\/11336\/130088\/2\/CONICET_Digital_Nro.4850a81e-b694-44b5-b571-00791f7fc46d_A.pdf","status":"GREEN"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In broadcast disks, the server continuously and repeatedly broadcasts all data items in the database to clients without specific requests. The clients monitor the broadcast channel and retrieve data items as they arrive on the broadcast channel. The broadcast channel then becomes a disk from which clients can retrieve data items. This paper proposes a Timestamp based Concurrency Control (TCC) scheme to preserve the consistency of read-only client transactions, when the values of broadcast data items are updated at the server. Previous schemes tried to reduce transaction aborts by consuming considerable amount of downlink communication from the server to clients for transferring control information. On the other hand, the TCC uses a timestamp field of each data item to describe execution order of server transactions. Clients can allow more transaction executions by checking consistency of their read-only transactions with timestamps of data items. As a result, the TCC can reduce the abort ratio of client transactions with minimal control information to be broadcast from the server.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":60033753,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"906605482","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Nowell and Hungerford (1962) and Nowell (1965) investigated the chromosomes of the bone marrow and peripheral blood in five patients with polycythaemia who had been treated with radio\u2010phosphorus (32P). They found abnormal cell lines in four patients, one of whom had developed leukaemia. Kemp, Stafford and Tanner (1961) examining the bone marrow by the short\u2010term culture method, found that seven out of nine cases of polycythaemia were normal, one patient had a cell line of 48 chromosomes, and one patient (who subsequently developed frank chronic granulocytic leukaemia) showed Ph1\u2010positive cells. Both these patients had been treated with 32P. An abnormal clone having a deletion of one of the C group chromosomes was present in the bone marrow of a patient with P.V.

In all these previous studies, it is not known to what extent the chromosomal abnormalities are due to the disease or are secondary to treatment.

+{"text":"Abstract. We propose a structure for a tunable multi-channel optical filter based on a one-dimensional quasicrystal made up of ZnSe (layer H) and ZnS (layer L) layers organized following the Octonacci sequence.

The transmittance spectrum of the s-polarized (transverse electric mode) light is obtained analytically by employing a theoretical calculation based on the transfer matrix method. For normally incident waves, four output signals are transmitted out from the structure. The transmitted signals move to shorter wavelengths as the angle of incidence increases up to 89 deg. At this angle of incidence, the output signals exhibit narrow, sharp, and well-defined resonant peaks. On the other hand, the resonant peaks shift to longer wavelengths as the ambient temperature increases from room temperature to 500\u00b0C. The obtained results reveal that the proposed structure could be used as an efficient multi-channel optical filter. The overall dimension of the proposed structure is about 569 nm, which practically makes the filter easily integrated into photonic circuits.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":248874668,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1117\/1.JNP.16.026006","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Alzheimer Disease (AD) is the most common type of dementia among elderly people. It is a severe neurodegenerative disorder which is highly characterized by progressive loss of brain tissues. It interferes with normal activity of daily living due to loss of cognitive ability. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has been proven to be very useful in early diagnosis and progression analysis of AD. This paper investigates the regional atrophy due to Alzheimer disease progression in four common brain tissues such as Cerebro Spinal fluid (CSF), Ventricle Segment (VS), White Matter (WM) and Gray Matter (GM) using their corresponding local texture patterns. The extracted information is used to classify Normal, Mild Cognitive Impaired (MCI) and AD subjects. An attempt is made to automatically segment the common brain tissues like WM, GM, CSF and VS. Features are extracted from their local texture patterns. Classification of Normal, MCI and AD is performed in order to investigate the efficiency of these extracted features as biomarkers in automated analysis of Alzheimer diagnosis. Anisotropic Diffusion filter based Level Set Method (ADLSM) is adapted to segment GM, WM, CSF and VS regions of brain. Fuzzy C means Clustering (FCM) technique is used to draw the initial contour which is later evolved using level set contour towards the desired boundaries. Local texture patterns such as Local Binary Patterns (LBP), Local Tetra Patterns (LTrP), Local Ternary Patterns (LTP) and Local Maximum Edge Binary Patterns (LMEBP) of segmented images are calculated. Histogram based features are extracted from these local patterns in order to classify NC, MCI and AD. It shows that the proposed FCM based ADLSM could able to segment the various brain tissues accurately. All local patterns are able to bring out the structural variations in terms of edge details. A maximum accuracy of 100 % is observed using LTP features and SVM classifier in differentiating AD and normal in GM, WM and whole brain regions. LMEBP features show an average performance measure of greater than 75% accuracy in differentiating MCI and normal subjects using SVM classifier. Similarly, LTP features show a good performance measure of 100% classification accuracy in differentiating AD and MCI in whole brain region. In conclusion, histogram features derived from local ternary patterns could be an efficient biomarker for classification of AD, MCI and normal subjects. Textural variations in gray matter and whole brain regions contribute more in differentiating the disease progression using local patterns. Hence, the proposed flow of segmentation algorithm, LTP feature extraction of various brain tissues along with SVM classifier may help to improve the automated diagnosis of Alzheimer disease progression.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":28065523,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In this work, rolling disc-on-disc contact fatigue tests have been performed on three different materials: a hardened and tempered UNI EN 42CrMo4, a nitrided UNI EN 42CrMo4 steel, and a carburized UNI EN 18NiCrMo5 steel. The test method adopted was optimized to better realize such conditions able to develop micropitting on different materials. The main aim of this test campaign was to investigate and compare damage on surface, in terms of initiating and propagating mechanisms. Extensive microfractographic analyses were performed on the damaged samples by the use of a scanning electronic microscope (SEM). For hardened and tempered steel, failure mode was micropitting, started from surface, but evolved into pitting because of crack path extending more deeply beneath the surface. Pits always originated on top surface and propagated as like a common fatigue crack. In the case of carburized steel, micropitting initiated at oxides at most surface grain boundaries, i.e., those sites characterized by greatest brittleness. Superficial cracks initiated and propagated inside the white layer for the nitrided steel. Once initiated, micropits may develop. Damaging rate can significantly increase by coalescence of small closest pits into a larger crater so much that micropitting phenomena do not arrest, but it can degenerate into destructive pitting and spalling. Significant differences, however, exist for ductile surface or hardened one.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":138941024,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2170992718","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1080\/10426910903388424","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

A new approach is adopted to use p-type silicon material, making the readout in n+-strips, so-called n+-in-p sensors. This allows for enhanced radiation tolerance against an order of magnitude higher particle fluence compared to the LHC. To cope with varying hit rates and occupancies as a function of radial distance, there are two barrel sensor types, the short strips (SS) for the inner 2 and the long strips (LS) for the outer 2 barrel cylinders, respectively. The barrel sensors exhibit a square, 9.8 \u00d7 9.8 cm2, geometry, the largest possible sensor area from a 6-inch wafer. The strips are laid out in parallel with a strip pitch of 75.5 \u03bcm and 4 or 2 rows of strip segments. The strips are AC-coupled and biased via polysilicon resistors. The endcap sensors employ a \"stereo-annulus\" geometry exhibiting a skewed-trapezoid shapes with circular edges. They are designed in 6 unique shapes, R0 to R5, corresponding to progressively increasing radial extents and which allows them to fit within the petal geometry and the 6-inch wafer maximally. The strips are in fan-out geometry with an in-built rotation angle, with a mean pitch of approximately 75 \u03bcm and 4 or 2 rows of strip segments.

The research is based on two questionnaires distributed to over 800 participants at two universities (one in the UK, one in Germany). Besides quantitative data, qualitative responses give additional insights into the students' perceptions. The results show marked differences between the two cohorts and also produce evidence of a considerable shift in students' perceptions after their return: a high percentage of students noted that their anticipated concerns were not realised.

In this paper we address the general problem of optimizing base station locations as well as their configurations, such as antenna height, tilt, and sector orientation. The proposed model, which can also be used to only optimize the base station configurations, accounts for the power control mechanism typical of W-CDMA and considers the signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) as quality measure.

+{"text":"A new and relatively unexplored source of archaeological and environmental information on the Chalkland are the sediments of dry valleys. From relatively recent studies these deposits have been shown to be the product of ancient land use and soil loss and a rich repository of both primary and archaeological material. There have, however, been no attempts to determine the spatial distribution of this class of ancient valley deposit - for the purpose of this project termed archaeo-colluvium . The study focuses on the north-west part of the Berkshire Downs (58km 2 ), a landscape of both chalk and superficial drift deposits, which together with relict ancient fields, lynchets and settlement features offered a suitable area in which to develop and test a method for predicting the distribution of these deposits. The project uses a multi-disciplinary approach which combines the traces of ancient arable (Celtic fields), some topographic parameters and assumptions about past soils, erosion regimes, and colluvial preservation in the development a GIS-based predictive model for the distribution of archaeo-colluvium within this study region. Following the production of a map of predicted sites, archaeo-colluvium was checked in the field by an extensive auger and trench survey of the main valleys and tributaries. Dry valley sequences were assembled and dated, both for the purposes of evaluating the accuracy of the model and to draw some archaeological implications from the nature and distribution of these deposits. A synthesis of local soils, colluvium and wider archaeological observations suggested a three-stage chronology for prehistoric and Romano-British land use on the Berkshire Downs, centred around earliest arable use at Seven Barrows with later shifts to surrounding catchments of mixed chalk and clay soils. The results of the field program were encouraging with the predictive model verified at 71% of target sites. A number of field observations were contrary to the original model, notable among these were that thicker sequences were common in landscapes of heavier soils as was evacuation of valley sediments from open chalk landscapes. This feedback allowed some modified principles to be briefly tested on three other Chalkland landscapes.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":126617780,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"838177241","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Atomic doping is a widely used technique to modify the electronic properties of two-dimensional materials for various applications. In this study, we investigate the catalytic properties of single-atom doped graphene as electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reactions (HERs) using first-principles calculations. We consider several elements, including Al, Ga, In, Si, Ge, Sn, P, As, and Sb, which were interstitially doped into single and double C vacancies in graphene. Our density functional theory calculations show that all the considered doped graphene, except for As-doped graphene, can be highly active for HER, with hydrogen adsorption free energies (\u0394G H*) close to the optimal value (\u0394G H* = 0), ranging from \u22120.19 to 0.11 eV. Specifically, \u0394G H* of Al, Ga, In, and Ge are much closer to zero when doped in the single vacancy than in the double vacancy. In contrast, \u0394G H* of Sb and Sn are much closer to zero in the double vacancy. Si and P have \u0394G H* values close to the optimum in both vacancies. Interestingly, the vacancy numbers play a crucial role in forming orbital hybridizations, resulting in distinct electronic distributions for most dopants. As a result, a few doped graphenes show distinctive ferrimagnetic and ferromagnetic orders, which is also an important factor for determining the strength of H adsorption. These findings have important implications for designing graphene-based HER catalysis.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":259219887,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1088\/2053-1583\/acddf7","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"It is essential for novel photodetectors to show good photoresponses, high stability, and have facile fabrication methods. Herein, an optimized electrospinning method to fabricate a photodetector based on nanowire arrays that has a wide spectral response range is demonstrated. Arrays of ZnO\u2010CdO hybrid nanowires are carefully fabricated fusing ZnO and CdO portions into the same nanowires and subsequently assembling those nanowires into a regular structure. Compared to pure ZnO or CdO nanowire arrays, the hybrid arrays show comparable photocurrent\/dark current ratios and response speeds, but they possess a much wider spectral response range from ultraviolet to visible light. The optoelectronic and electronic properties of the ZnO\u2010CdO hybrid nanowire arrays are systematically explored.

Dr. Berlau confines himself to the discrepancies between party platform and party action. What is lacking is the basic framework of the political theorist who distinguishes, at least for purposes of intellectual analysis, between three levels of discourse: the level of values, the level of empirical data and observation, and the level of the theoretical model or corpus of theoretical principles which provides the blueprint for action and helps predict the course of events, given certain values and certain sets of empirical data. Only an appraisal of party literature and party action based on such a methodological framework would make possible an evaluation of the changes in the theoretical principles or even the values of the SPD in the light of the real situation in Germany between 1914 and 1921. Furthermore, a study of this kind should surely be conducted in terms of an explicit and detailed working model of the term &dquo;political party.&dquo; Dr. Berlau might reply that such a definition is implied in his opening chapters where political party is treated as a group of likeminded people who draw up a platform to which they are henceforth committed. But is this definition valid for all the parties that were then operating within the context of German political institutions? Is it even applicable to the SPD itself for the entire period in question, or was there rather a radical change in the nature of the party? Answers to questions such as these would raise, in turn, other questions about the nature and content of the Erfurt program and the role of political parties in general.

As with the \"shape-shifting quality\" (Barnard 5) of his political iconicity, so his representation in poetry has varied over time.

This essay illustrates the range of meanings ascribed to Mandela by poets from the 1960s to the present day: the stoic embodiment of resistance during his imprisonment, the messianic figure leading his people to freedom in 1990, the potentially compromised\/compromising politician following his release, and finally the revered elder trapped by his own iconicity and weighed down by the burden of public (over-)expectation.

+{"text":"Significance Nacre, commonly called mother of pearl, is a biological composite that displays an exceptional combination of strength and noncatastrophic fracture behavior. The quantitative understanding of the structure\u2013property correlations observed in nacre could provide powerful guidelines for the design of lightweight composite materials. By fabricating nacre-like brick-and-mortar composites from aligned alumina microplatelets interconnected by titania mineral bridges, we have been able to isolate and quantify the influence of mineral bridge density on the composite's fracture properties. Because the model synthetic material is structured from ceramic constituents at the same length scale as biological nacre, it sheds light on the fundamental role of mineral bridges in natural brick-and-mortar structures, while also demonstrating outstanding mechanical properties. The nacreous layer of mollusk shells holds design concepts that can effectively enhance the fracture resistance of lightweight brittle materials. Mineral bridges are known to increase the fracture resistance of nacre-inspired materials, but their role is difficult to quantify due to the lack of experimental systems where only this parameter is controllably varied. In this study, we fabricate tunable nacre-like composites that are used as a model to experimentally quantify the influence of the density of mineral bridges alone on the fracture properties of nacre-like architectures. The composites exhibit a brick-and-mortar architecture comprising highly aligned alumina platelets that are interconnected by titania mineral bridges and infiltrated by an epoxy organic phase. By combining experimental mechanical data with image analysis of such composite microstructures, an analytical model is put forward based on a simple balance of forces acting on an individual bridged platelet. Based on this model, we predict the flexural strength of the nacre-like composite to scale linearly with the density of mineral bridges, as long as the mineral interconnectivity is low enough to keep fracture in a platelet pullout mode. Increasing the mineral interconnectivity beyond this limit leads to platelet fracture and catastrophic failure of the composite. This structure-property correlation provides powerful quantitative guidelines for the design of lightweight brittle materials with enhanced fracture resistance. We illustrate this potential by fabricating nacre-like bulk composites with unparalleled flexural strength combined with noncatastrophic failure.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":53792126,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2903450703","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1073\/pnas.1805094115","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/www.pnas.org\/content\/pnas\/115\/50\/12698.full.pdf","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Based on large Zeldovich number or high reaction rate of combustion, asymptotic analysis is used. This one-dimensional laminar flame structure is divided into three zones. The first zone is a preheat zone in which the rate of chemical reaction is small, and evaporation plays a significant role in temperature and mass distribution. The second zone is a reaction zone in which convection and vaporization rates of particles are small. The third zone is a convection zone in which diffusive terms in the conservation equations are negligible. In this model, it is assumed that particles vaporize to yield a gaseous fuel; also, a massive exhaust gas recirculates to the preheat zone where it mixes with primary particles and gases either to dilute the combustion air and to generate relatively low flame temperature. At last, the flame characteristics for different equivalence ratios of the solid mixture are studied by considering the effects of radiation and mass recirculation. Radiations from reaction zone to the mixture of particles and gases existed in the preheat zone increase flame temperature and burning velocity. As the hot exhaust gases are recirculated to the inlet combustion air, the combustion air is diluted; thus, flame temperature and consequently NO x emission are decreased.

+{"text":"Introduction limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) is a group of clinically and genetically heterogeneous polymorphic diseases characterized by progressive muscle weakness, atrophy of skeletal muscles with the primary lesion of the shoulder and pelvic girdle, decreased tendon reflexes, increased blood levels of creatine phosphokinase (CK) [1\u20135]. To the current date there are 31 genetic variants of LGMD that occur after normal motor development period caused by mutations in the genes localized in autosomes [6]. There are 3 genetic variants with X-linked recessive mode of inheritance \u2013 Duchenne \/ Becker progressive muscular dystrophy (DBPMD) and Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD) type 1 and 6 [7]. The incidence of all LGMD variants vary in different populations from 5 to 70 patients per 1 million populations [8]. DBPMD is the most common in this group of diseases. Its prevalence is 1:3500 of live male births [9, 10], while LGMD type 2A (LGMD2A) accounts for 30 to 40 % of all LGMD cases with autosomal-recessive inheritance pattern [8, 11, 12]. LGMD2A (OMIM: 253 600) is caused by mutations in calpain 3 (CAPN3) gene located in 15q15.1-q21.1 [13]. The product of its expression is an enzyme from the family of calcium-dependent proteases. The latter is involved in synchronization of muscle contraction, in the process of miofibrillogenesis as well as sarcomeric remodeling [14, 15]. Being two allelic variants Duchenne LGMD (OMIM: 310 200) and Becker LGMD (OMIM: 300 376) have specific clinical pictures due to different mutations in dystrophin gene (DMD), located on the short arm of X chromosome in r21.2\u201321.3 [16\u201319]. The product of DMD gene is a structural protein which is a part of dystrophin-glycoprotein complex. The latter helps to connect cytoskeleton of myofibers to the extracellular matrix [20]. Therefore, both expression products of these genes are involved in providing synchronism of the complex process of muscle contraction. Therefore, the similarity of clinical manifestations of these genetic LGMD variants is caused by participation of gene expression products in a single pathogenic mechanism [21, 22]. This fact greatly complicates their differential diagnosis in the clinical stage of the survey and makes it impossible to prevent the emergence of repeated cases in families with burdened anamnesis. The purpose of the work was to identify particular phenotypic manifestations that allow their differential diagnosis in the clinical stage of the survey based on the analysis of the frequency of 33 clinical signs in samples of patients with DBPMD and LGMD2A.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":211545365,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Background Elevated levels of the critical coagulation glycoproteins von Willebrand Factor (VWF) and Factor VIII (FVIII) are associated with thrombovascular disease. VWF and FVIII levels are elevated in healthy pregnancy compared with the nonpregnant state, and further increases have been reported in pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia, a potentially life-threatening vascular disorder of pregnancy. Aside from the quantitative increases in VWF and FVIII, data is inconsistent or little is known regarding other key VWF-associated parameters in pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia.\n\nHypothesis We hypothesized that pregnancies complicated by severe preeclampsia would exhibit distinct changes in VWF-associated parameters compared to healthy pregnancies.\n\nMethods We assayed VWF-associated parameters in subjects newly diagnosed with severe preeclampsia, based on standard blood pressure (BP) and proteinuria criteria. Severe preeclampsia was defined on the basis of one or more of the following: severe hypertension (systolic BP >160 or diastolic BP >110) for at least 6 hours, seizures (eclampsia), hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, thrombocytopenia, pulmonary edema, renal dysfunction, or fetal growth restriction. We compared results from preeclamptic pregnancies to gestational age-matched healthy pregnant controls. VWF antigen (VWF:Ag), VWF propeptide (VWF:pp), and FVIII antigen (FVIII:Ag) levels were determined by ELISA. Factor VIII activity (FVIII:C) was measured using a one-stage assay and ADAMTS13 activity was determined via cleavage of an enzyme-linked peptide substrate.\n\nResults Forty-two patients with severe preeclampsia and a cohort of thirty-nine controls of similar gestational ages met study inclusion criteria ([Table 1][1]). The results of the coagulation assays are presented in [Table 2][2]. In summary, preeclamptic pregnancies were notable for statistically significant (p<0.001) increases in VWF:Ag (1.4-fold), VWF:pp (1.5-fold), and FVIII:Ag (1.2-fold) compared to controls. FVIII:Ag and FVIII:C were similar, and FVIII:Ag was used in the calculation of the VWF:FVIII ratio. The VWF:FVIII ratio trended higher in preeclamptic pregnancies, but this did not reach statistical significance ( p =0.058). The mean ADAMTS13 activity in patients with preeclampsia was also significantly lower (0.76-fold, p<0.001) than healthy pregnancy controls.\n\nConclusions In pregnancies complicated by severe preeclampsia, VWF:Ag and FVIII were significantly elevated, as expected. VWF:FVIII ratios also tended to be higher in preeclamptic pregnancies compared to controls. Interestingly, activity of the VWF-cleaving protease ADAMTS13 was modestly but significantly decreased in preeclampsia pregnancies, a finding for which there is conflicted literature. Three subjects with thrombocytopenia had ADAMTS13 activities >85%, indicating the thrombocytopenia was unrelated to a relative ADAMTS13 deficiency. These findings support the hypothesis that pregnancies complicated by severe preeclampsia exhibit VWF biology that is distinct from healthy pregnancy. We speculate that preeclampsia-associated VWF differences could play a direct role in the vascular pathogenesis and end-organ damage of preeclampsia. These data offer new clues towards better understanding of the mechanisms of severe preeclampsia and represent promising future targets for diagnosis and\/or treatment.\n\nDisclosures: No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.\n\n [1]: #T1\n [2]: #T2","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":57472270,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2510794823","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1182\/BLOOD.V122.21.3525.3525","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

More generally, it was agreed that the controller working position (CWP) should be designed as a common information space in order to compensate those side effects. Furthermore, it was obvious that data was missing to grasp the phenomenon, considering that previous experiments did not focus on this topic. In order to gather data for analysis, real time simulations involving ATC controllers were conducted with the following experimental objectives: compare CPDLC situations to a reference situation without CPDLC and compare two CPDLC situations differing from the experimental conditions, i.e. the instructions given to the controllers. The experimental device enabled to link the observed behaviors to CPDLC feature, among other contributing factors. The experimentations showed that CPDLC is likely to add uncertainty in the activity by making elements of the team mate's activity less discernible.

+{"text":"When the gas flow rate of a well significantly changes, the flow rate can fall below that of the operating range of a traditional fixed size Venturi meter, necessitating the replacement of the original meter with one of a smaller size. However, with an adjustable cone meter, the internal reconfiguration feature allows it to automatically switch from high operating flow range to low operating flow range and there is no requirement to disassemble the meter from the flow line assembly. Adjustable cone meters were designed, developed and tested at the wet-gas flow loop at National Engineering Laboratory in East Kilbride, Scotland. After calibrating the meter with dry nitrogen gas, the meter was tested with increasing amounts of liquid being injected into the flowline, upstream of the meter. The liquid caused the differential pressure measurement on the meter to over-read. Based on the differential pressure measurements under varying flow conditions, algorithms were developed to measure the dry gas and liquid fraction. The data obtained from the tests such as differential pressure, pressure, temperature, liquid density were used to build an over-reading model of the meter and a liquid fraction estimation model based on pressure loss ratio derived from an additional differential pressure measurement. The model was used to not only to quantify the gas and liquid flow rates but also the estimated error in each measurement. The measurements show that the Adjustable Cone meter is able to provide low uncertainty in both dry and wet gas conditions and offers a turndown ratio of up to 54:1 in dry gas conditions. In addition, the automatic adjustment of the meter from high flow to low flow positions avoids the need for manual intervention that involves additional risk and cost.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":239133713,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.2118\/206072-ms","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The findings of this review show that mindfulness interventions may be valuable in the reduction of externalizing behavior in the classroom, but the current research has methodological flaws. Further randomized-controlled trials using a double-blind data collection technique are recommended. IMPACT OF MINDFULNESS PROGRAMS ON EXTERNALIZING BEHAVIOR 1 The Impact of School-Based Mindfulness Programs on the Externalizing Behavior of Students Modern public schools should strive to find new ways to accommodate a wide range of psychological and behavioral disorders in the pursuit of an appropriate education for all students. One specific category of disorders is referred to as externalizing behavior problems, and by definition these disorders are very noticeable and disruptive in a classroom. Externalizing behavior disorders are characterized by disruptive, hyperactive, and\/or aggressive behaviors. Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), and Conduct Disorder (CD) are all disorders that fall into the externalizing behavior spectrum (King et al., 2018). These disorders are considered a risk factor for later antisocial behavior, as well as for higher rates of incarceration and arrest (Liu, 2004). Additionally, children on the externalizing behavior spectrum have been shown to have poorer social relationships, more violent tendencies, and lower academic achievement than their peers (Burke et al., 2014). As a result, children with these issues often cause disruption in the classroom; this may lead to a classroom environment where success is harder to obtain for the child exhibiting the disruptive behavior as well as for the other children. Furthermore, disruptive behavior levels in classrooms may affect teacher retention and job satisfaction, as disruptive behavior has been shown to increase the emotional distress of teachers, and teachers show a reduced ability to manage the classroom when dealing with high levels of this problematic behavior (Black & Fernando, 2014). Externalizing behavior problems in schools, therefore, deserve increased awareness and further research. The main factors that comprise externalizing behavior disorders are aggression, delinquency, and hyperactivity (Liu, 2004). Aggression can be defined as behaviors that harm or threaten others, such as violence. Delinquency includes antisocial acts such as lying, stealing, IMPACT OF MINDFULNESS PROGRAMS ON EXTERNALIZING BEHAVIOR 2 and spending time with delinquent peers. Hyperactivity is characterized by excessive motor activity and restlessness. It is important to note that not all children with externalizing behavior disorders possess all three of these factors. In fact, children with ADHD may not possess any of these traits; namely when they have the inattentive presentation of ADHD. ADHD is made up of two domains of symptomatology: inattention and hyperactivity-impulsivity. There are three presentations of this disorder, which are predominantly hyperactive-impulsive, predominantly inattentive, and the combined presentation (American Psychiatric Association, 2013). Children with the combined or hyperactive-impulsive presentation are much more likely to be disruptive than children with inattentive presentation, though they are less aggressive and delinquent than children with conduct problems such as ODD and CD (Barkley, 2018). In sum, whether or not to consider inattention a disruptive behavior problem is controversial. For the purpose of this review, inattention is not considered a disruptive behavior problem because it usually does not disrupt the classroom. One important factor related to externalizing behavior disorders is poor self-regulation. Self-regulation is one's ability to alter one's own actions, cognitions, and emotions to meet the demands of the situations they encounter in their lives (Baumeister & Vohs, 2007). Human behavior is purposive and motivated by forethought, therefore, the basis for all purposeful action is self-regulation of behavior, thoughts, and emotions (Bandura, 1991). Dysregulation, on the other hand, is the inability to use healthy and\/or adaptive strategies to manage and diffuse negative emotions and actions. Improving self-regulation skills requires learning about and managing the relationship between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors; this is the basis of many psychological treatments such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (Rolston & Lloyd-Richardson, 2017). Emotional dysregulation has been shown to be common in ADHD, and is a major IMPACT OF MINDFULNESS PROGRAMS ON EXTERNALIZING BEHAVIOR 3 contributor to impairment (Shaw, 2014). It also is potentially a major contributor to the develoment of conduct problems, as emotional regulation skills are being studied as a moderator of an adolescent's potential to develop ODD and\/or CD. Neurobiological research on these disorders has indicated emotional dysregulation combined with trait impulsivity could be their developmental basis (Beauchaine, 2012). Aggressive tendencies have also been linked to emotional dysregulation (Garofalo et al., 2018). Therefore, many treatments for these externalizing behavior problems include self-regulation components. Externalizing Behavior Disorders ADHD is one of the most widely known externalizing behavior disorders due to the fact that it is the most common, with a prevalence of approximately 5% in children (Barkley, 2018). ADHD has a high comorbidity rate with the other two externalizing behavior disorders, ODD and CD. Children with ADHD are as much as ten times more likely to develop ODD or CD as compared to their non-ADHD peers (King et al., 2018). However, it should be noted that many children with ADHD do not develop conduct problems. ODD is a disorder characterized by disobedience and hostility to rules and authority. It has a prevalence rate of approx 3% (Canino et al., 2010). CD is a disorder related to ODD, but CD is characterized by more serious symptoms, such as aggression, destruction of property, and theft. CD has a prevalence rate of approx 2-3% (Canino et al., 2010). Individuals with CD are more likely than those wtih ODD to exhibit antisocial behavior is so severe that it may lead to legal and other serious consequences (APA, 2013). Like most other disorders, ODD and CD exist on a spectrum from less severe to more severe. This category of behaviors and the related disorders are typical to encounter in the IMPACT OF MINDFULNESS PROGRAMS ON EXTERNALIZING BEHAVIOR 4 school setting. Students with these disorders tend to face impairment in the social and academic environment of the classroom. Academic impairment is common in children with externalizing behavior disorders. Children with ADHD may display significant deficits in multiple academic areas such as reading and math, and many children with ADHD, ODD, and CD even have a comorbid specific learning disorder (SLD; Barkley, 2018). These children are also said to show poorer executive functioning skills which include things like organization, time management, and self-motivation. In adolescence, children with ADHD show higher rates of grade retention and dropping out (Sibley et al., 2014). Conduct problems such as ODD and CD lead to more failure and dropping out, as well as more suspensions and expulsions (National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, 2015). Children with these disorders are much less likely to attend higher education than their peers (Barkley, 2018). Classroom behavior and social skills are also areas of concern for these children. Children with ADHD are shown to have higher rates of off-task behavior as well as lower levels of academic engagement (Junod et al., 2006). When considering the social aspects of school, those diagnosed with ADHD face higher levels of peer rejection, have fewer close friendships, and tend to have more deviant peer groups (Sadler et al., 2011). Those diagnosed with ODD and CD also tend to have more deviant peers as well as high incidence of school behavior problems (Kolko et al., 2008). In fact, untreated hyperactivity, oppositionality, and conduct problems by definition make it very difficult for a student to succeed in an academic setting. One treatment option for the most common externalizing behavior disorder, ADHD, is medication. Stimulants are often prescribed to improve frontal lobe functioning and control over impulsivity (Barkley, 2018). Stimulants are thought to have an effect on ODD symptoms as well IMPACT OF MINDFULNESS PROGRAMS ON EXTERNALIZING BEHAVIOR 5 due to the high comorbidity of ADHD and ODD, and risperidone has been shown to lessen symptoms in cases of ODD and CD with severe aggression (Turgay, 2009). The other evidencebased treatment route for these disorders is behavioral treatment. Common behavioral treatments for ADHD include things like token economies and parent training (Barkley, 2018). Treatments for ODD and CD include more community-based treatments, such as multisystemic therapy (Turgay, 2009). When it comes to decreasing disruptive behavior in the classroom, behavioral interventions are the most evidence-based option. Most school-based behavioral programs are delivered by teachers, administrators, and school counselors through lessons, school changes, cognitive and behavioral interventions, and increased communication with parents (Han & Weiss, 2005). A new trend in these programs is mindfulness interventions, which use calming","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":219631296,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"A new wireless sensor has been fabricated by using SH-SAW device. Shear horizontal mode surface acoustic wave (SH-SAW) has a unique characteristic of complete reflection at the free edges of the substrate. The phenomenon makes it possible to design the reflecting delay line. In this paper, the SHSAW are excited on a 36\u00b0YX LiTaO3 and the right angle edge of the substrate has been used to reflect these waves. A wireless electronic system for remote sensing was fabricated by using the reflecting SHSAW delay line. The reflecting SAW delay line was used as a sensor element and operates in a passive mode. Both the phase and amplitude of the SH-SAW reflected from the edge were measured as a response of the sensor. Experimental results on the measurement of liquids and vapor showed that the passive SH-SAW sensor system is very suitable for wireless sensing. Introduction The sensor technology rapidly develops today. The sensor using the surface acoustic wave (SAW) device also begins widely to use in various fields such as monitoring of the environment, process control of the chemical reaction plant, analysis in the medical and bio-sensing. [1] SAW devices are well known as electronic devices and have many unique features. By using these SAW device technologies, it is possible to make various type sensors. For example, because several SAW devices can be constitute on one chip, it is possible to integrate some sensors in one plane. It can be miniaturized by using high frequency. In recently, SAW sensor for wireless identifications system have been also made. [2,3] It is known that a specific cut surface of some piezoelectric materials also propagates the surface wave in the shear horizontal (SH) mode . An SHmode SAW contains a single particle displacement component, which is horizontal to the surface and perpendicular to the direction of propagation. SH-SAW, which propagates on the surface of a piezoelectric substrate, produces complete reflection, if a right-angled incidence is made on a perpendicular edge. The phenomena have several advantages in the design of the electronic devices and sensors. [5,6] In this paper the reflecting delay line sensor using complete reflection phenomenon of SH-SAW at the edge of substrate is investigated. [7] Both the phase and amplitude of reflected wave were measured as a sensor response. The electronic circuit is also proposed to accurate measurement of the phase. Finally, the wireless remote sensing system and its application on measurement of liquid and vapour sensing is shown. Remote sensor system Sensor structure A schematic view of passive SAW sensor is shown in Fig.1. The sensor is composed of an interdigital transducer (IDT) for exciting and receiving the SAW, arranged on a piezoelectric substrate at an appropriate distance from and in parallel with the substrate edge. The propagation characteristics of SH-SAWs depend on the surface conditions, particularly on whether the propagation surface of the SAW is shorted or not. Especially if the surface is electrical open, a surface skimming bulk wave (SSBW) is generated and the sensor operations are interfered. Therefore, in this study the surface was shorted periodically using metallic strips instead of completely shorting the surface. Figure 1 also shows the three channel passive SAW sensor having difference propagation length and the surface of each channel have short, open, and grating propagation paths, respectively. In the grating channel, metal strips (Al) with one eighth of a wavelength wide were arranged on the path.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":201075655,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Recently, current-voltage (I-V) characteristics have been reported by Collins et al. for a system with a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) tip and a carbon nanotube. The STM tip was driven forward into a film of many entangled nanotubes on a substrate, and then was retracted, so that one of nanotubes bridged the STM and the film. I-V characteristics had two different patterns for different heights. One showed large dI\/ dV with V greater than 0, small dI\/dV with V less than 0, and I = 0 near V = 0 (type-I), while the other showed rectification, i.e., I does not equal 0 only with V less than 0 (type-II), with the tip grounded. We propose a physical mechanism to explain the observed I-V patterns. We consider that the observed characteristics strongly reflected the nature of the tip (metal) - nanotube (semiconductor) contact. The other end of the nanotube was entangled well in the film, and simply provided a good Ohmic contact. We will argue that there are two different contact modes: vacuum gap and touching modes, depending on the presence or absence of a tiny vacuum gap d approx. 0.1 - 0.2 nm at the junction. These modes may be related to physisorption and chemisorption, respectively. Once admitting their existence, it is naturally shown that I-V characteristics are type-I in the vacuum gap mode, and type-II in the touching mode. We argue that the nanotube had to be an n-type semiconductor judging from the I-V characteristics, contrary to often observed p-type in the transistor applications, where p-type is probably due to the oxidation in air or the trapped charges in the silicon dioxide. Additional information is contained in the original extended abstract.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":92797022,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"625490634","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

So far, we don't have much information about the transnational practices of Hungarian return migrants, therefore our study is partly a descriptive analysis. Results indicate that a significant proportion of those who had migratory experience and long-term migrants residing in the host country at the time of the data collection visited their home in the last 12 months of their stay abroad, and roughly one third of them supported at least one of their relatives living in Hungary during their stay abroad. Home visits and migrant remittances were the most typical among labor migrants, men, aged over 50, skilled workers, and among those who did not live with family members abroad.

+{"text":"In order to understand such a unique phenomenon of European civilization as the Renaissance, it is necessary to immerse yourself in its musical culture, which reflects the complex and often contradictory processes taking place in the inner world of a person of that era. Under the influence of these processes, a wide variety of qualitatively new musical forms was formed, which served as the basis for interesting phenomena of musical culture, reflecting the characteristic traits of the Renaissance. Among these forms is the Italian madrigal comedy, a genre that lies at the intersection of musical and stage arts, which has not been sufficiently studied to date. In this regard, it is of interest to study its genesis and connection with elements of folk musical culture. Several samples of medieval prose could be considered the origins of the madrigal comedy -in particular, related to the tradition of the Italian novella. Among the examples of these, originally oral, genres was the 13th-century digest \"Il novellino\", echoes of which can also be found in the typically Renaissance \"Decameron\" by G. Bocaccio, which reflects the characteristic features of the secularization of European society, including the enjoyment of man on earth existence. The novella itself is a kind of \"construction genre\", opening up wide opportunities for improvisation - which makes it related to late theatrical genres. A mature literary genre that influenced the formation of the madrigal comedy was the farce that has existed since the 15th century. The difference between a farce and a novella is a pronounced stereotyping of certain characteristic features of the components of the Renaissance society (such as social classes, estates and professions), which can be considered as a phenomenon that precedes the appearance of masks of the madrigal comedy. The musical basis of the madrigal comedy was based on medieval song genres, which have a simple, lively and energetic harmony, which corresponds to the spirit of love of life and fun, embodied in the ideals of the Renaissance. The typology of madrigal comedies includes at least two types. The first is the simplest, representing a thematic cycle of madrigals without a pronounced stage component (\"Caccia\" by A. Striggio). A mature type, including independent solo parts, division into parts and a pronounced storyline, is reflected in the work of A. Banchieri and O. Vecchi. O. Veechi's comedy, the \"Amphiparnassus\", among other things, also has pronounced farcical features, reflected in the vivid images of the heroes of the work. The short life of the madrigal comedy, apparently, was associated not so much with its content, but with the absence of a pronounced visual component, which did not allow it to find a response among the people and significantly reduced its competitiveness with the new visual genre of opera. Thus, the madrigal comedy can be considered as an organic combination of elements of traditional Italian culture and the ideas of Renaissance humanism, and its pronounced national flavor reflects the basic trends in the musical culture of the Renaissance.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":257047583,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.17223\/22220836\/46\/16","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Moreover, with image-based data management and data visualization tools, medical images can be electronically organized and submitted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for review. The collection, processing, analysis, archival, and submission of medical images in a digital format versus an analog (film-based) format presents both challenges and opportunities for the clinical and regulatory information management specialist.

+{"text":"The relevance of the research. Tomato is considered to be a strategic vegetable crop in Ukraine. This crop is cultivated in a large area covering more than 80 thousand hectares, and the gross annual harvest is more than 1.5 million tons. The largest producer of tomatoes in Ukraine is Agrofusion Company, which grows 600 thousand tons in the area of 5600 hectares. The fields of the company are equipped with drip irrigation systems; therefore the issue of efficient management of soil water regime in these conditions is relevant. \nThe purpose of the research is to investigate the features and to adapt the existing Penman-Monteith method for determining total evaporation to the conditions of the Steppe of Ukraine under drip irrigation. \nResearch methods: field short-term experiments, conventional analytical methods; methods of dispersion, correlation, regression and variation analyses were used. \nThe scientific-methodical approaches were substantiated and the need for adapting the \u00abPenman-Monteith\u00bb method to the tomato crop was proved. \nResearch results.

+{"text":"Malnutrition is a growing impediment for human health. The prevalence of malnutrition in Pakistan is much higher among children as well as women. From the past two decades, three national nutritional surveys have been carried out focusing mainly on malnutrition in children. At the moment, malnutrition is also responsible for hidden retardation in the economic development of country. Deficiencies not only lead to increased disease burden but also result in loss of human capital. It has been reported that around 50% deaths underfive occur in response to malnutrition. Additionally, \u02c325% children in the developing countries are moderately or severely malnourished. Moreover, the child nutrition is thought to be a major risk factor for the sickness and death of children, contributing \u02c350% of child death over the globe (Cheah et al., 2010). Of the leading nutritional problems, protein energy malnutrition (PEM) is affecting the masses significantly. In Pakistan, 9.6 million children under-five are malnourished. While, according to Global Nutrition Report (2016), 45% children are stunted in Pakistan. Weaning\/complementary foods are introduced in the mid period between breast-feeding and total solid food intake. Hence, nutritionally balanced, easily digestible and energy dense weaning foods are necessitated as a substitute to breast milk (Jirapa et al., 2001). Traditional weaning foods are commonly consumed but unable to meet the criteria of energy, protein, micronutrient concentration and quality (Chang et al., 2008). In order to overcome the existing loopholes, well designed weaning food is the need of hour to ensure proper growth and healthy life of infants (Bond et al., 2005). Normally, cereal flours are considered as the basic ingredient for infant formulations along with dry milk and indigenous legumes (Egli et al., 2003). Not only the recipe, but also nutritional and functional properties matters a lot in the making of well-balanced weaning food (Nasirpour et al., 2006). Legumes belong to family \"Leguminosae\", also known as \"Fabacae\". Legumes are important source of macroand micro-nutrients, especially the low-cost vegetable proteins in contrast to expensive animal products that make them less favorable choice (Mubarak, 2005; Olivia and Ardythe 2013). Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) belongs to family Fabaceae and commonly named as cow gram, lobia, china pea and blackeyed bean. It differs with respect to sizes, shape and color of seed coat (Appiah et al., 2011; Ashogbon and Akintayo 2013). Likewise, cowpea is also an appropriate source of dietary protein with high bioavailability and relatively lower proportion of anti-nutritional factors (Papalamprou et al., 2009). In-spite of being a good protein source, it is also rich in soluble and insoluble dietary fiber, minerals and vitamins (Ashraduzzaman et al., 2011). Mungbean (Vigna radiate) is one of the main legumes consumed in sub-continental community. The protein content of mungbean is quite similar to chickpea however, it contains lesser amount of anti-nutrients (Dahiya et al., 2013). It is an excellent source of macroand micro-nutrients thus recommendable to the malnourished segments of the Pak. J. Agri.

+{"text":"In literature it has been stated that the burial ritual becomes less monumentally and thus less visible during the transition from Bronze to Iron Age in the Netherlands. This process during which cremation becomes the dominant rite, cumulates in the Middle Iron Age, where the funerary custom(s) become virtually invisible. It is thought the majority of the cremations are placed in the ground in small pits without containers or structures \u2013 and are disturbed since. However, since only the minority of the population received this deposition, the question is what happened to the rest of the population? \nThe types of remains I encountered and studied can be roughly divided in four groups: cremations, inhumations, disarticulated bones and bog bodies. Remains could be left articulated, or instead be disarticulated, dehumanized or objectified and kept in circulation, or deposited inside or outside the settlement. All these variations do occur, what we need to examine is whether a \"special\" burial or a \"deposition\" is always \"deviant\" - or whether it is 'just' following another set of normative rules and practices? The problem is, that we have an ill understanding of the reasons behind the variable choices in the past. For that, we need to construct a framework and a systematic approach. The angle I choose is the concept of liminality. \nIn order to re-adhere to the social order after a life-changing event, individuals or groups need to go through, or undertake, certain rites of passage. The rites are needed to pass the threshold into a new phase. Ethnographic examples inform us that during the liminal state \u2013 that is the period in between the old state that led to exclusion and the new state that leads to re-integration \u2013 the individual or group is in many cultures considered 'dead'. \nI showed that a possible dangerous, extra-ordinary liminal, death may have led to extra-ordinary burial rite. Can we call this normative? The concept of liminality does not offer straightforward explanations for the richness of some graves in a time were most graves were very modest. I cannot conclude that liminality is the answer to the widening of options of disposal. But, it could very well have been one of the criteria, determining the carefully regulated type of burial.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":193844718,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2595072565","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Privatization of intelligence services raises many concerns familiar to the debates over private military and security companies (PMSCs). One of the key problems posed by PMSCs is their use of potentially lethal force in an environment where accountability may be legally uncertain and practically unlikely; in some circumstances, PMSCs may also affect the strategic balance of a conflict. The engagement of private actors in the collection of intelligence exacerbates the first set of problems: it frequently encompasses a far wider range of conduct that would normally be unlawful, with express or implied immunity from legal process, in an environment designed to avoid scrutiny. Engagement of such actors in analysis raises the second set of issues: top-level analysis is precisely intended to shape strategic policy \u2014 the more such tasks are delegated to private actors, the further they are removed from traditional accountability structures such as judicial and parliamentary oversight, and the more influence those actors may have on the executive.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":156442469,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2357554380","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"In the first Polish attempt to systematically describe free verse Urbafska (1995) argues that this poetic form requires 'visual perception during mental (silent) reading'. As free verse gradually adapts to late 20th-century culture, where the visual supersedes the oral, the intonation and rhythm of a poem increasingly come to depend on its graphic segmentation. Consequently, the visual design of the poem constitutes its meaning. As cognitive linguistics admits that sensory imagery, also visual, 'plays a substantial role in conceptual and semantic structure' (Langacker, 1983), it seems possible to employ the cognitive parameters of focal adjustments to analyse a poem composed in free verse. If we assume that reading such a poem involves 'scanning through a domain' of the page and 'along a line' of the poem 'until a contrast is registered' (Langacker, 1983), then we can discuss the whole poem in terms of the figure\/ground organization. The whole poem can thus be treated both as the figure in itself and as the background to each of the verses, which demands from its readers constant readjustment of the viewpoint. Therefore the awareness of the cognitive strategies of focal adjustments may help to analyse syntactic and stylistic resources of the salient ordering offered by free verse. Moreover, it may assist the translation of poems composed in free verse and the assessment of translated texts.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":143540600,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2006503839","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1177\/096394700000900205","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Thus, it is expected as a candidate for sustainable food-derived iron source. It is suggested that the iron storage protein ferritin largely contributes to the net iron content in the seed of soybean. Previously, the author showed that ferritin is composed of two types of subunits, SFER1 and SFER2, in soybean dry seeds. In the present study, the author investigated the contribution of ferritin to the iron content of soy-derived processed foods, such as tofu. Ferritin was detected in many kinds of soy-derived foods except the fermented soy foods. Furthermore, ferritin purifi ed from the tofu extract was folded properly and formed oligomer, similar to the structure of native soybean ferritin, indicating that soybean ferritin was stable during the heat treatment of food processing. Judging from the ferritin and iron recovery in the purifi cation process, most of the soluble iron was contained in ferritin oligomer. However, the iron contents of ferritin from tofu was approximately 1150 Fe atoms per molecule, while native ferritin oligomer, which was purifi ed from dry seeds, contained 2590 atoms. These results suggested that ferritin oligomer was maintained stably and still contained large portion of iron in tofu, although partial denaturation induced iron release from ferritin shell during heat treatment.

To achieve this goal, mine experimental observation of maingates stability performed.

As a result of the research the conditions of maingates stability in steep coal seams in protection by pillars or timber sets are substantiated. It is recorded that in the zone of influence of extraction operations, at a distance of l <60 m behind the mining face with the considered methods of protection, the support of the maingates is deformed within the yielding limits and has characteristic flexures the side of hanging wall. At a distance of l\u226560 m, the cross-sectional area of the maingates is reduced to 50% of the initial values, and the amount of roof to floor convergence exceeds the flexibility of the support. The increase displacement of rock mass on the contour of the supported roadway behind the mining face depends on the strength and geometry of the secondary support structures above the maingate. Novelty. It is experimentally established that the change in the cross-sectional area of the maingate during protection by timber sets occurs linearly with increasing length of the extraction layout.

+{"text":"Quality of service (QoS) is an important component for the military communication networks. QoS for combat network radios can be critical for the efficiency and, indeed, the survival of a mission and its personnel. The implementation of QoS for the combat network radio networks and the tactical Internet is largely restricted to the utilization of priority (generally referred to as precedence in the fire support (FS) community). QoS for MIL-STD-188-220C is generally implemented in the data link layer using media access control (MAC) algorithms. A legitimate criticism of MIL-STD-188-220B\/C in terms of implementing QoS is its restriction to three levels of precedence. An important consequence of the current implementation of QoS for the most urgent and time critical messages such as check-fires is that they are just another urgent message in terms of network access for all MIL-STD-188-220C MAC algorithms. The time criticality of these types of messages is obvious but even if there is a near universal requirement not to use urgent precedence messages, with current MAC implementations, urgent does not adequately provide the QoS needed for the almost immediate delivery of such messages.

The new method accounts for complex wave propagation in three-dimensional (3D) earth, linearizes the inverse problem by iteratively updating the earth model, and provides an accurate way to integrate body- and surface-wave observations. The finite-difference methods developed to date make it possible to construct hierarchical FD-SGT databases efficiently and with great flexibility. The spherical finite-difference method is well suited for regional and global wave propagation, while the finite-difference method with boundary conforming grids that follow topography provides higher accuracy at local and near regional scales. The self-consistent FD-SGT databases constructed from finite-difference simulations of wave propagation in full-wave tomographic models can be used to determine the moment tensors within minutes after a seismic event, making it possible for real time monitoring using 3D models.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":117094761,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"230276859","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Keeping the contact force at a certain level between finishing tool and the object is essential since the quality of the finished surface is very sensitive to the contact force during the finishing process. However, the contact force measurement cannot be obtained by simply installing load cells under machine table or in the middle of tool linkage. The reason is that the weight of the machine table and the tool linkage are much heavier than the force to be measured. To that end, a method for estimating disturbance is proposed for a system that is similar to the mechanism of the finishing machine, and the same method is applied to estimate the contact force of the brush-type finishing machine.

Long flows could potentially block the transmission of delay-sensitive short flows, leading to degraded performance. Congestion can also be caused by the synchronization of multiple TCP connections for short flows, as typically seen in the partition\/aggregate traffic pattern. While multiple end-to-end transport-layer solutions have been proposed, none of them have tackled the real challenge: reliable transmission in the network. In this paper, we fill this gap by presenting PABO -- a novel link-layer design that can mitigate congestion by temporarily bouncing packets to upstream switches. PABO's design fulfills the following goals: i) providing per-flow based flow control on the link layer, ii) handling transient congestion without the intervention of end devices, and iii) gradually back propagating the congestion signal to the source when the network is not capable to handle the congestion.Experiment results show that PABO can provide prominent advantage of mitigating transient congestions and can achieve significant gain on end-to-end delay.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":195346897,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2788553250","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

A better knowledge on the relationships between different proxies of forest fragmentation and food resources consumed by a wide diversity of avian species can help us understand the indirect effects of forest fragmentation on bird populations.

We estimated the relative abundance of arthropods, flowers, fruits and seeds (food items for different bird feeding guilds) in a fragmentation gradient during summer and winter. During the summer season, Celtis ehrenbergiana and Lycium cestroides offered >90% of the total fruits and flowers estimated abundance, respectively. Solanum argentinum offered most of the estimated fruit abundance during the winter season. Arthropod abundance (in winter) and seed abundance (in both seasons) increased with patch size reduction; moreover, we observed higher abundance in the forest edge than in the interior. We only found a negative effect of forest fragmentation on fruit and flower abundance for individual species. Regarding to seasonality, relative abundance of arthropods was signifcantly reduced in winter, whereas relative abundance of fruit and seeds was similar between seasons. Relative abundance of flowers was drastically reduced in winter; therefore, we could not perform statistical comparisons between seasons.

Environmental modifications are designed to improve acoustic clarity and enhance learning-listening (Bellis, 2002; 2003). It is universally accepted that all listeners perform better in an environment with acoustic clarity and desirable signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Primary school children are particularly vulnerable to noise (Shield & Dockrell, 2003) and will experience high levels of noise in classrooms (Blake & Busby, 1994). It was also shown that children will not develop adult-equivalent resistance to noise and reverberation before late teenage years. Before this will be achieved, the younger the children, the more important the difficulties regarding listening in noise and\/or in reverberant environments (Stelmachowicz, Hoover, Lewis, Kortekaas & Pittman, 2000; Jamieson, Kranjc, Yu & Hodgetts, 2004). In their review, Picard & Bradley (2001) have estimated that classrooms presented average noise levels of 4 to 37 dB A above the recommended levels and proposed ambient noises guidelines of 40 dB A maximal for 12 years old and older children and reverberation times of 0.5 s. According to these authors, younger students with normal hearing and listening faculties would require levels ranging from 39 dB A (10 \u2013 11 years) to only 28.5 dB A (6 7 years old). Finally they suggested that children with suspected delayed speech processing in noise, such as APD children, \u300aSpeech and Hearing Review 8\u300b Auditory Processing Disorders II: experimental results on APD management with personal FM systems. 130 SNR situations not achievable by these patients.

We also report results from a second study that could evidence long term benefits of the FM treatment on subjective measures, psychoacoustic tests, as well as evidence for improved neural maturation in the auditory pathway as demonstrated by the maturation of auditory event related potential markers over a one-year period. All these results are discussed in the context of current consensus on APD diagnosis and management.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":14303901,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Methods: The medical records of 32 women with a history of chronic non-infectious uveitis, who were pregnant during their follow-up at the Ocular Immunology and Uveitis Service of the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary, from 1983 through 2003, were reviewed. The uveitis relapse rate during pregnancy was compared to the relapse rate during pregnancy-free periods in these women and to the relapse rate in a control group of women of childbearing age with recurrent non-infectious uveitis. Results: Among the 32 women who were pregnant during follow-up (40 pregnancies), the rate of flare-ups during pregnancy (1.0 recurrence per year) was lower than that observed during non-pregnant periods (2.4 per year; p < 0.001) and lower than that observed in the non-pregnant control group (3.1 per year; p < 0.001). Flare-ups were most frequent in the first trimester of pregnancy and decreased markedly in the second and third trimesters (2.3, 0.5, and 0.4 recurrences per year, respectively; p < 0.001). Conclusions: Pregnancy is associated with lower numbers of flare-ups of non-infectious uveitis compared to the non-pregnant state. If flare-ups do occur during pregnancy, they happen predominantly in the first trimester.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":24815742,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1991264465","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1080\/09273940500557027","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"We perform the first study of time-dependent X-ray reflection in photoionized accretion disks. We assume a step-functional change in the X-ray flux and use a simplified prescription to describe the time evolution of the illuminated gas density profile in response to changes in the flux. We find that the dynamical time for readjustment of the hydrostatic balance is an important relaxation timescale of the problem since it affects the evolution of the ionization state of the reflector. If the variations of the X-ray flux occur on timescales shorter than this time, then the Fe K\u03b1 line emissivity is not a function of the instantaneous illuminating spectrum since it depends on the shape and intensity of the illuminating flux in prior times. Moreover, during the transition, a prominent Helium-like component of the Fe K\u03b1 line may appear. As a result, the Fe K\u03b1 line flux may appear to be completely uncorrelated with X-ray continuum flux on timescales shorter than the dynamical time. In addition, the time dependence of the illuminating flux may leave imprints even on the time-averaged Fe K\u03b1 line spectra, which may be used as an additional test of accretion disk geometry. Our findings appear to be important for the proposed Fe K\u03b1 line reverberation studies in lamppost-like geometries for accretion rates exceeding about ~1% of the Eddington value. However, most active galactic nuclei do not show Helium-like lines that are prominent in such models, probably indicating that these models are not applicable to real sources.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":10633309,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2530050017","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1086\/338333","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":"astro-ph\/0106450"},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/iopscience.iop.org\/article\/10.1086\/338333\/pdf","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The manufacturers are competing against each other based on their development ability. A manufacturer who wants to do better than others must emphasize its ability of product development. The resources that product development relies on are more distributed than ever along with the varying of the global design environment. So more and more resources outside of enterprises are needed during the product design process. The platform supporting the product modern design under the circumstance of distributed resources will meet the requirement of the enterprise's product design and development under such conditions. The platform will also simplify the implementation on the integral of the IT support system for design resources outside of enterprises. In this paper the characteristics and supporting technologies of product design platform, which supporting the distributed design resource circumstance and centering on the enterprise, are studied. The building method of the platform is presented and a prototype of the product design platform is developed. Three subsystems are included in the platform. They are the product requirements analysis system, the product design planning system and the knowledge management system. Many design tasks can be supported on the platform, such as product requirement analysis, concept design, detail design, experiment, and maintenance knowledge acquirement. The distributing, implementing, tracking and managing of product lifecycle tasks can also be supported on the platform. The distributed design resources could be sealed as application components to provide design services. Design work flow model and knowledge flow model are built and controlled through the FIPER software. The design knowledge is managed based on the ontology theory. The virtual prototype of a complex product can be built and run more easily with the design platform. The process of building a virtual prototype could be described simply as following. Firstly the distributed models are sealed as application components. Then the components are published in the FIPER environment. Finally, the virtual prototype is built in the form of design work flow model in which the distributed components are integrated. To simulate the coupling of multi-discipline behaviors in a complex product design, the coupling formula is proposed to express the relations of different discipline behaviors. Based on the coupling formula, the coupling simulation can be run on the platform. Finally, a lifecycle performance prototype of an internal combustion engine is developed through the platform to verify the platform's functions.Copyright \u00a9 2008 by ASME","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":110864691,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2142521305","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1115\/ESDA2008-59345","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

It was found that when hPS was added into symmetric PS-b-P4VP diblock copolymers, the surface morphology of this diblock copolymer was changed to a certain degree. With \u03d5PS increasing at first, hPS was solubilized into the corresponding domains of block copolymer and formed cylinders. Moreover, the more solubilized the hPS, the more cylinders exist. However, when the limit was reached, excessive hPS tended to separate from the domains independently instead of solubilizing into the corresponding domains any longer, that is, a macrophase separation occurred.

+{"text":"This section summarizes the information available on the effects of exposure to mainstream tobacco smoke and the occurrence of cancer in animals and includes data from the previous IARC Monographs on tobacco smoking (IARC, 1986) and subsequent publications to date (see Table 3.1). Although the evidence for the carcinogenicity of tobacco smoke emerged first in humans, there was a need for an inhalation model in experimental animals in which the carcinogenicity of different types of tobacco and tobacco products could be studied. The availability of animal models also permits the investigation of various modifying factors in the development of cancer. Early inhalation studies in rodents were reviewed by Wynder and Hoffmann (1967). From about 1960 onwards, the species of animal selected most often for carcinogenicity studies was the Syrian golden hamster, which has a low background incidence rate for spontaneous pulmonary tumours and is prone to few interfering respiratory infections. The discovery that inhalation of tobacco smoke caused carcinomas in the larynx of hamsters enabled the establishment of a model system in which the carcinogenicity of tobacco smoke for hamsters has been repeatedly confirmed (see below). Many bioassays have also been conducted in mice and rats and the results are summarized below. To enable the responses of animals to tobacco smoke inhalation to be studied, it was necessary to develop methods and equipment to deliver smoke in a standardized, effective way. A number of devices have been employed, some involving whole-body exposure and some 'nose-only' exposure. Usually, in order to simulate human smoking patterns, a 2-s puff from a burning cigarette is diluted with air and forced into a chamber for a short period, followed by an air purge. However, animals that are being forced involuntarily to inhale the smoke suffer avoidance reactions and change their breathing patterns to shallow, hesitant inspirations with reduced minute volumes. This behaviour affects the doses delivered to the different parts of the respiratory system. Because rodents are obligatory nose-breathers and because rodents and dogs have more convoluted and intricate nasal turbinate patterns than humans, the dynamics of particle deposition in the upper respiratory tract might be expected to be different (see Wynder & Hoffmann, 1967; \u2013973\u2013","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":14886721,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Atomic force microscopy measurements as a function of annealing temperature, time of exposure to a high relative humidity environment, and scan duration\/parameters have been used to ascertain the stability of assemblies of thiol-passivated Au nanoparticles on silicon substrates. Striking changes in the morphology of self-organised nanoparticle patterns are observed following the exposure of samples to atmospheres with a relative humidity of 80%. The nanoparticle film dewets the underlying silicon substrate on exposure to water, forming locally thicker regions. Time-lapse imaging shows that the dewetting proceeds via layer-by-layer growth, and there is no evidence for classical coarsening mechanisms involving self-similar film morphologies. Annealing at temperatures between 100 \u00b0C and 160 \u00b0C produces a rather different dewetting effect for the highest temperatures and\/or annealing times, where significant nanoparticle sintering promotes the break-up of the two-dimensional assembly. The morphology of the initial 2D film plays a key role in determining the time scale on which annealing promotes nanoparticle dewetting. Dewetting can also be induced by a scanning probe such that localised (micron-scale) areas of the nanoparticle assembly can be converted from 2D to 3D character.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":98274296,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2061733274","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1039\/C1JM12182K","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

A longitudinal prospective follow-up\" by Ingegard Fried is distributed together with this issue of Acta Paediatrica. The results reported in the supplement are based on the work started by Dr Alice Hellstrom almost 70 years ago. Alice Hellstrom was one of the pioneers of Swedish child psychiatry and was both a teacher and a physician. She was trained at the Karolinska Institute in pediatrics by I Jundell and in psychiatry by B Gadelius. In 1928, influenced by the ideas of Aichorn's Oberhollabrunn in Austria, Neill's Summerville in England and by the theories on therapeutic education (in Germany Heilpedagogie) from Austria, she started a child psychiatric treatment home, the Mellansjo school-home, for psychopathic boys and girls. In order to evaluate the results of the treatment given, she planned and conducted a prospective longitudinal study of the psychosocial effects up to adult age of the more than 600 children admitted to Mellansjo. However, Alice Hellstrom died before her results were ready for publication, but her study has now been completed by Ingegard Fried. The work presented in the supplement also provides insight into the background of Swedish Child and Adolescent Psychiatry as well as its goals. In 1845, Sweden was the first country in the world to have a university chair in pediatrics at the Karolinska Institute. F Berg, the first professor and chairman, was devoted to the overall health and care of children. Later, he left his chair at the university and, as a skilled statistician, became the first director of Swedish Statistics (SCB, Statistiska Centralbyrbn). During his active years, he thus developed both strategies for pediatric research and health statistics on a population basis. From his initiative and efforts, different disciplines such as pediatrics, child psychiatry and social medicine (community medicine) successively developed in Sweden (1, 2). Ellen Key's book \"The century of the child\" (in English 1909) (3) proclaimed the 20th century to be \"the children's century\". In her book, Key proposed that research from different disciplines would contribute to a better understanding of the differences and similarities between childhood and adulthood. In Sweden, her books initiated a stimulating intellectual discussion. This, in turn, over the next 50 years, resulted in the establishment of mental health services for children in hospitals (child and adolescent psychiatry), public schools (school psychiatry) and in the work of the child social welfare committees (child guidance clinics). Isak Jundell, professor of pediatrics at the Karolinska Institute in 1914-1932 and the founder of Acta Paediatrica, advocated the establishment of a \"new\" discipline. In 1915, in the Barnens Dagblad (The children's newspaper) he wrote the pamphlet \"Broken minds\", in which he explained his reasons and need for knowledge on the development of delinquent behavior. In 1915, he had already discussed the relationship between childhood psychopathology and the occurrence of child abuse and neglect (4). As this pamphlet, \"Broken minds\", can be considered the starting point for the establishment of Swedish Child and Adolescent Psychiatry as a medical discipline, and as it still has relevance today, the essential arts are quoted:","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":32979985,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2064088426","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1111\/J.1651-2227.1995.TB13736.X","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Vertical electrical sounding (VES) curves were obtained across the area using the Schlumberger configuration. The data was interpreted using the conventional curve matching and computer iteration method. Tests were carried out on soil samples which include Particle Size Distribution Analysis and Atterberg Limits tests. The geo-electric results revealed eight different curve types namely; K, H, QH, HK, KH, QK, KQ and KHK-curve types. 54% of all the sounding curves belong to HK and Htypes whereas the remaining 46% belongs to other six curve types within the study area. The results also revealed that depths to the water saturated sandstones (aquifer) within the study area range from 67.83m at Toll-Gate Onitsha to 225.03m at UNIZIK Science Village Awka with an average resistivity of 1205.12 Ohm-m. The water table map indicates multi flow direction and correlates favourably with the topography of the area. It was observed that the hydraulic conductivity obtained ranges from 2.84 x 10 -3 to 3.37 x 10 -1 m\/day while the transmissivity ranges from 0.091 to 1.039m 2 \/day within the study area.

We taxonomize model extraction attacks around two objectives: *accuracy*, i.e., performing well on the underlying learning task, and *fidelity*, i.e., matching the predictions of the remote victim classifier on any input. \nTo extract a high-accuracy model, we develop a learning-based attack exploiting the victim to supervise the training of an extracted model. Through analytical and empirical arguments, we then explain the inherent limitations that prevent any learning-based strategy from extracting a truly high-fidelity model---i.e., extracting a functionally-equivalent model whose predictions are identical to those of the victim model on all possible inputs. Addressing these limitations, we expand on prior work to develop the first practical functionally-equivalent extraction attack for direct extraction (i.e., without training) of a model's weights. \nWe perform experiments both on academic datasets and a state-of-the-art image classifier trained with 1 billion proprietary images.

A Cox regression model showed that mite sex, size ratio between the predator and prey, average mite velocity, and encounter rate had a significant influence on the mite\u2010capture efficiency (springtail survival). Female H. aculeifer demonstrated higher capture efficiency than males by catching and killing their prey after fewer encounters. Surprisingly, starvation had only a moderate effect on the mite locomotory behaviour and no influence on the capture efficiency as such. Also, springtail survival was independent of its moulting stage.

In support of this goal, a study was conducted to identify the initial considerations for performing the navigation and flight dynamics tasks of this mission class. Although missions to a NEO are not new, the unique factors involved in human spaceflight present challenges that warrant special examination. During the cruise phase of the mission, one of the most challenging factors is the noisy acceleration environment associated with a crewed vehicle. Additionally, the presence of a human crew necessitates a timely return trip, which may need to be expedited in an emergency situation where the mission is aborted. Tracking, navigation, and targeting results are shown for sample human-class trajectories to NEOs. Additionally, the benefit of in-situ navigation beacons on robotic precursor missions is presented. This mission class will require a longer duration flight than Apollo and, unlike previous human missions, there will likely be limited communication and tracking availability. This will necessitate the use of more onboard navigation and targeting capabilities. Finally, the rendezvous and proximity operations near an asteroid will be unlike anything previously attempted in a crewed spaceflight. The unknown gravitational environment and physical surface properties of the NEO may cause the rendezvous to behave differently than expected.

+{"text":"Over most of the 20 th Century, many educational systems around the world became increasingly secular, notably with lessening involvement of religious institutions. However, what it means to offer secular education to an increasingly diverse student population is emerging as a contemporary international educational issue. The face of immigration, the rights of Aboriginals, and increasingly diverse and individual forms of religiosity and spirituality have implications for secular education today. This qualitative study of Alberta schooling provides an example of a setting that underwent a high degree of secularization in the 1960's-1980's. A litigious but interpretive boundary exists for the extent educationists were to engage students in thinking about religion and spirituality. Yet, teachers operated with a high degree of autonomy. With these contextual factors as a backdrop, this study explored how a hierarchical sample of Alberta policy-makers, administrators, and teachers conceptualized religion and spirituality for secular secondary schools. Results show that Alberta Education conceptualized space for the conservative religious and Aboriginal communities, but not mainstream students. The students operated in a 'leave your faith at the door' secular model, curriculum was rationalized, and the function of schooling was perceived as preparing students for work. Findings show that principals and teachers challenged the lack of space for mainstream students to engage in the concepts of religion and spirituality. They argued the secular model disadvantaged mainstream students in exercising their right to religious freedom and developing religious literacy and sensitivity skills and it also prevented non-religious students from gaining access to religious\/spiritual concepts and tools to facilitate wellbeing and resiliency.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":149739117,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2908407727","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

These results are confirmed by our numerical studies. Furthermore, our numerical studies indicate that when random polygons of length n are divided into individual knot types, the ACN(K) for each knot type K can be described by a function of the form ACN(K) = a \u00b7 (n \u2212 n 0) \u00b7 ln(n \u2212 n 0) + b \u00b7 (n \u2212 n 0) + c where a, b and c are constants depending on K and n 0 is the minimal number of segments required to form K.

We investigated the video lessons produced and recorded by 22 lecturers, with the purpose of spotting the presence of signalling behaviours such as glances aimed at drawing the attention to parts of the screen, or pointing gestures, or ad hoc devices such as the mouse tracker or text highlighting. The guiding hypothesis behind this study is that the introduction of new tech devices for distance teaching might amplify the difficulties in signalling and attention guidance by the teachers, thus reducing the efficacy of such signalling as aids for comprehension and learning. The data we collected appear to support this hypothesis and induce interesting suggestions and guidelines towards avoiding the spotted problems.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":249436109,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.2478\/rem-2022-0007","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBYNCND","url":"https:\/\/sciendo.com\/pdf\/10.2478\/rem-2022-0007","status":"HYBRID"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"P matter. That's the message of Susan Mayer's new book. What Money Can't Buy.^ The University of Ghicago sociologist's sophisticated and often ingenious analyses lead her to conclude that parents' characteristics are more important than their income in determining how well they raise their children and, hence, how well their children will do in later life. Thus Mayer argues that giving low-income families more money would not help their children very much. Such conclusions are likely to infuriate liberals and receive an \"I told you so\" response from conservatives, but it's more complicated than that. The children of low-income parents, as Mayer notes, are much less successful than those whose parents have more money. They score lower on measures of cognitive ability. They are more likely to drop out of school, to become unwed parents in their teen years, to have behavioral problems, and to earn less in later life. But why? The best way to find out would be to conduct a grand social experiment like the negative-income-tax experiments of the 1970s and early 1980s. Those randomized experiments, although still subject to academic debate, suggested that simply giving poor families more money would not solve their problems. Mayer, of course, was unable to conduct such an experiment. Instead, she took advantage of the differences among families, as reflected in various national data sets to conduct a series of creative analyses that exploit natural variations in behavior. Here's what she found: The parental characteristics that lead to higher earnings are associated with better child outcomes. Mayer performs two analyses to come to this conclusion. First, she finds that higher earned income is more correlated with good child outcomes","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":11681618,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2155358617","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Almost 150 years ago, T.R. Ashworth first described the presence of epithelial cells in the blood of a woman with metastatic breast cancer that were similar in appearance to her primary tumor cells. Indeed, many patients with a variety of solid tumors, including breast cancer, have detectable cancer cells circulating in the bloodstream, so-called circulating tumor cells (CTCs). CTCs represent a rare cell population in the blood, typically less than 10 cells\/mL compared with 1 million WBCs\/mL. However, the detection of CTCs within a routine blood specimen provides an opportunity to monitor cancer noninvasively, in essence a liquid biopsy. While dramatic technological advances have recently transformed the analytic capabilities of both CTCs and free plasma DNA analyses, clinical trials based on the first-generation technologies are now providing important insight into how such blood-based monitoring might be integrated into clinical management. In 2004, a seminal study by Christofanilli et al evaluated the prognostic significance of CTCs in metastatic breast cancer, utilizing the Veridex CellSearch assay. The CellSearch assay involves fixation of cells within a blood specimen, followed by immunomagnetic capture of CTCs on the basis of cell surface expression of the epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) and staining and scoring of captured cells for expression of epithelial keratins. Women with metastatic breast cancer and elevated CTCs ( 5 cells per 7.5 mL of blood) were found to have a worse progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) than women with CTCs below this detection threshold. The prognostic significance of elevated CTCs was subsequently further confirmed in breast as well as prostate and colon cancer. However, expert guidelines from national organizations do not currently support the routine use of CTCs for prognostic assessment, given the unproven clinical benefit of such measurements. In the article that accompanies this editorial, Smerage et al present results from the SWOG S0500 clinical trial, testing whether adjustment of chemotherapeutic regimens based on CTC measures of treatment response can lead to improved clinical outcome in women with metastatic breast cancer. CTCs were measured by CellSearch assay before the start of first-line chemotherapy in women with metastatic breast cancer (N 595).Ofthese,319(54%)womenhadelevatedCTCs( 5cellsper7.5mL of blood) at baseline. The 123 (20.7%) women who had detectable CTCs at baseline and continued to have elevated CTCs despite one cycle of chemotherapy were randomly assigned to either continuation of the same treatment or to an alternative second-line chemotherapy. Both the first-line and second-line therapies were at the discretion of the treating physician, and neither were informed in any way by CTC results. Thus, the study tested the hypothesis that switching among chemotherapy regimens based on early CTC measures of nonresponse might improve outcome, compared with waiting for more traditional radiological evidence of disease progression. The two arms of the randomized study were well balanced with respect to baseline demographic and tumor characteristics and powered to detect a 70% increase in OS (8 to 13.6 months). The study confirmed the prognostic significance of CTC measurements: women who had elevated CTCs at baseline and did not have a decline in CTC numbers following first-line chemotherapy had an OS of only 13 months, compared with 23 months for women whose baseline CTCs declined following first-line chemotherapy and 35 months for women without detectable CTCs at baseline. However, for women in the worst prognostic group (ie, those who continued to have elevated CTCs following a cycle of first-line chemotherapy), switching to an alternative chemotherapyregimendidnotchangeeitherOS(10.7v12.5months;P .98) or PFS (3.5 v 4.6 months; P .64). The trial included patients with diverse breast cancer subtypes, including those who had received endocrineorbiologic therapiesbefore thefirst-linechemotherapy, thusconstituting a heterogeneous population with metastatic breast cancer. In addition, CTC change was only assessed as a binary categorical variable (patients were either positive or negative for CTCs, based on the detectability threshold of 5 CTCs per 7.5 mL of blood). Thus, major changes in CTC numbers in either direction were not scored unless they crossed the threshold of detectability. Whether any of these issues could have modified the magnitude or significance of the results is unclear, but they are important considerations as we move into the next generation of CTCdriven clinical trials. The SWOG S0500 CTC trial is an important study for several reasons. First, it was a well-designed biomarker trial addressing an important clinical question related to clinical utility of CTCs in metastatic breast cancer. Extending beyond past observational studies, this trial involved random assignment based on CTC measurements and sets up a good model of conducting a biomarker trial using standardized technology across multiple institutions. Second, the trial results strongly validate the JOURNAL OF CLINICAL ONCOLOGY E D I T O R I A L VOLUME 32 NUMBER 31 NOVEMBER 1 2014","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":207037717,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2133957883","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1200\/JCO.2014.57.1505","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

It is altogether fitting that a collection of essays based on the records should be dedicated to her. Readers will choose from these articles according to their predilections. One of the most generally useful (No. II) is a survey by P. Chaplais of the course and development of the Diplomatic (in the political sense of the word) Documents of the English Grown down to the end of the reign of Edward ni. This is an excellent piece of teaching, and will doubtless long be used as such. Another survey (III) by J. E. Sayers is that of the papal privileges of the great abbey of St. Albans in the four last medieval centuries. It is a collection of remarkable richness and scope, a veritable mare magnum, that helps one to appreciate the protest of St. Francis in his Testament' against privileges of any kind. Professor Holt, in a closely argued discussion (IV) of the texts of the Assizes of Henry n as they have come down to us, defends their substantive authenticity in support of Stubbs, who edited most of them, against the attacks of Richardson and Sayles. His argument, that there was no single official text but a number of ad hoc instructions will receive support in a forthcoming article on the Constitutions of 1169, where it is shown that copies, different in several respects, were destined for various authorities in particular circumstances. Holt's study is an important one, which constitutional historians should not miss. In an article (X) on the Declaration of Arbroath A. A. M. Duncan, author of an Historical Association pamphlet on the subject, looks at the document itself and shows that the names of the signatories depended in several cases upon the availability of their seals, while in other cases important names were left seal-less.

In addition, classical-quantum (CQ) states and nullity of MiN are characterized via local commutativity. Based on CQ states, the geometric measure of quantum discord (GMQD) for infinite-dimensional case is proposed. Consequently, we highlight the relation among MiN, QD(GMQD), SSPPT and separability through a unified approach for both finite- and infinite-dimensional systems: zero MiN implies zero QD(GMQD), zero QD(GMQD) signals SSPPT and SSPPT guarantees separability, but the converses are not valid.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":119173741,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1743292856","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":"1107.0355"},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In short, the five pictures of Nisiki by Utamaro has a scene to violate the 5th rule of the Enforcement Ordinance which was announced in the period of Kyouho.

The analytical techniques employed include descriptive statistics and budgetary analysis. The gross margin analysis reveals that the fully integrated poultry production systems have the highest gross margin while the non-integrated poultry farms have the lowest gross margin per1000birds. The gross margin per 1000 bird realized by non-integrated poultry farms, partially integrated poultry farms and fully integrated poultry farms are N758, 828.07, N909, 973.06 and N985, 645.12, respectively. Likewise, the net farm income per 1000 birds for fully integrated poultry farm is higher than that of partially integrated poultry farm which is in turn higher than that of non-integrated poultry farms.

Results [Ca 2+ ]i changes induced by histamine presented a biphasic response. [Ca 2+ ]i rose rapidly to the peak, then maintained at a lower level. The maximal [Ca 2+ ]i changes (13.39%, 36.35%, 64.68%) correlated significantly with histamine concentrations (1\u00d710 -6 , 1\u00d710 -5 , 1\u00d710 -4 mol\/L)(P0.05).

Three steel buildings and 9 near-fault recorded earthquake motions were considered. It was shown that both ASCE and 2800 standards overestimate the displacement of buildings and the vertical component of earthquake has no significant effect on the maximum displacement of stories. It has also been observed that using the ASCE equation for considering the vertical component of earthquake in far-fault areas can lead to an overestimation of axial force of columns, but in near-fault areas it can lead to a rather good estimation of axial force of columns. In light of this research, it can be found that loading patterns of Iranian code (with or without considering ASCE equation) can overestimate moment of columns and using the ASCE equation in Iranian code for near- fault analyses is recommended.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":112012991,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2257603221","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Student performance in science classrooms has continued to falter throughout the United States. Even though proficiency rates on national tests such as National Assessment of Educational Progress are higher for Caucasian students than African Americans and Hispanics, all groups lack achieving desired proficiency rates. Therefore, much work is needed in our classrooms to achieve the new more rigorous performance expectations found in the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). This five year professional development study sought to link the involvement of teachers in a sustained intervention, designed to improve the quantity and quality of guided inquiry-based instruction in middle school science classrooms, to student academic growth. Specifically we wanted to see if we could link higher quality inquiry-based instruction with the narrowing of the achievement gap between student groups. Findings show statistically significant gains for all student groups (aggregate, males, females, Caucasians, African Americans, and Hispanics) on all three science MAP tests (composite, science practices, science concepts) when compared to students of nonparticipating teachers. According to several indicators, American students have continued to perform abysmally in science education (Lauko, Grigg, & Brockway, 2006; Martin, Mullis, Foy, & Stanco, 2012; U.S. DoEd, Institute of Education Sciences, & National Center for Education Statistics, 2011). Additionally, large achievement gaps continue to persist ( Lauko et al., 2006; US DoEd et al., 2011). Within the current condition of languishing performance, a new benchmark for learning, NGSS, has been introduced that effectively raises the performance expectations for what all students in K-12 science classes should know and be able to do (Achieve, 2013; National Research Council, 2012). For decades, inquiry-based instruction has been encouraged as a teaching strategy that provides a vehicle by which teachers can engage their students in experiences that go beyond low-level thinking (Marshall, 2013). Despite knowing this, it is evident that effective inquiry-based instruction is far from the norm in most classrooms (Marshall, Horton, Igo, & Switzer, 2009).

+{"text":"Flux of ethylene from adaxial applications of Ethrel and Silaid to amphi- and hemistomatous leaves was examined. Following application of Ethrel to amphistomatous leaves in the dark (i.e., closed stomata) or hemistomatous leaves in the light, steady-state ethylene evolution was almost entirely adaxial. When stomata of amphistomatous leaves were fully open, abaxial ethylene flux for Ethrel was about 45% of the total ethylene evolved. Abaxial ethylene flux could then be dramatically reduced by stomatal closure induced by low light levels. Steady-state abaxial flux of ethylene from Silaid on amphistomatous leaves in the dark or hemistomatous leaves in the light was usually equal to or greater than adaxial ethylene flux. When stomata of amphistomatous leaves were fully open, flux of ethylene from Silaid was invariably equal from both leaf surfaces. Flux of Silaid- or Ethrel-derived ethylene from one leaf surface was reduced by increasing air velocity on the opposite side of the leaf, but only on amphistomatous leaves following light-induced stomatal opening. For Ethrel, the effect of air velocity was greater when the side of the leaf to which Ethrel had been applied was exposed to the increased air flow. No similar effect was found for Silaid. Closure of stomata on amphistomatous leaves and use of hemistomatous leaf material prevented any air velocity effect. Data indicate little to no entry of Ethrel or Ethrel-derived ethylene into the side of a leaf that lacks stomata or whose stomata are tightly closed. Significant movement of Silaid into leaf tissues probably occurs regardless of stomatal status, resulting in considerable release of ethylene within the leaf.

+{"text":"Neutrophils have capacity to cause tissue damage in chronic inflammatory disease. In rheumatoid arthritis (RA) they infiltrate joints, secrete proteases and reactive oxygen species (ROS), and express cytokines. RA neutrophils express NAMPT which is a highly conserved, pleiotropic protein, that catalyses the rate-limiting step of the NAD salvage pathway, but also has cytokine-like activity. NAMPT is elevated in inflammation and exerts pro-inflammatory effects on neutrophils. The aim of this research was to determine the role of NAMPT, as a signalling molecule and as an enzyme, in regulating neutrophil activities of pathological importance. \n \nNeutrophils were isolated from the blood of healthy donors and either stimulated with NAMPT or else NAMPT was inhibited (with FK866), in the presence and absence of pro-inflammatory cytokines in vitro. Assays for specific neutrophil functions such as production of ROS, bacterial killing and apoptosis were performed, and expression of cytokines was also examined. Transcriptome sequencing of neutrophils treated with FK866 and TNF\u03b1 in combination, was carried out to investigate the wider impact of NAMPT inhibition on neutrophil gene expression. NAMPT expression was also examined in control, cytokine treated and RA patient neutrophils. \n \nNAMPT had little capacity to prime neutrophils, although it did delay neutrophil apoptosis and stabilise the anti-apoptotic protein Mcl-1. NAMPT inhibition in neutrophils, depleted NAD(P)\/H and had effects on neutrophil functions and gene expression. Notably, FK866 decreased ROS production but did not affect the ability of neutrophils to kill bacteria. NAMPT-inhibited neutrophils exhibited decreased activation of signalling pathways and a diminished response to cytokines; transcriptome analysis showed that FK866 decreased TNF\u03b1-induced expression of many genes. NAMPT expression was not dynamically regulated in control neutrophils, but in RA patient neutrophils, NAMPT mRNA correlated with TNF\u03b1 expression in a cohort of patients, and NAMPT protein was elevated in synovial fluid neutrophils compared to those from paired blood. \n \nThus, NAMPT is elevated in activated inflammatory neutrophils and correlates with other markers of inflammation in RA, suggesting that it may be a marker of inflammation in these cells. Also, as a NAD biosynthetic enzyme, NAMPT regulates neutrophil functions and gene products central to RA disease pathology, without affecting bacterial killing capacity. This suggests that inhibition of NAMPT may potentially have the capacity to decrease neutrophil mediated tissue-damage observed in chronic inflammation, without adversely compromising host defence, and thus may be a future treatment option for diseases such as RA.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":83040954,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1510428021","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The final results revealed that translators tend to adopt the same procedure to tackle the same word. Additionally, translators' afterthoughts were examined. The results showed that patterns help simplify translation tasks but also cause \"rote translation\", which hampers the \"colourfulness of words\". Besides, the context length and the mindset at the moment of translating are the two factors that may affect translators' outputs for the same text at different times. Lastly, the level of difficulty and the consistency degree are negatively correlated. In this pilot study, the above-mentioned findings were obtained, and these findings shed light on translators' translation tendencies and thinking patterns.

+{"text":"This paper describes the first decade of crowdfunding (CF) experiences carried out in the Spanish university environment from the perspective of social responsibility and determines the impact of their campaigns in solving social problems. To do so, the literature, from traditional patronage practices to current models of micro crowdfunding in the digital environment, allow framing crowdfunding by putting the focus on the relationship of universities with their audiences and the agents involved in the campaigns they launch from 2012 to the present, as part of their purposes with society. To achieve the objectives, a content analysis of the 56 CF campaigns, launched by a dozen Spanish public universities, was carried out. The study concludes that the fluctuations in the evolution and development of university crowdfunding (UCF) and the scarce existence of their own platforms have not yet allowed its consolidation as a tool of their University Social Responsibility (USR). In addition, UCF campaigns in Spain place value on research at the service of society, moving away from philanthropy to exercise social responsibility, although they are generally focused on their internal audiences, so their social impact is limited.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":256486814,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.5565\/rev\/analisi.3557","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/analisi.cat\/article\/download\/v67-ibanez-etal\/3557-pdf-en","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"This case study focusses on the 1952 celebration of the 300th anniversary of the landing of the Dutchmen Jan van Riebeeck in the Cape. It shows how several families who had emigrated from the Netherlands to the town of Upington in the Western Cape, presented themselves as Dutch South Africans who felt connected to the white population of South Africa. Photos and memories of their contribution to the local festivities will be contextualized in a broader frame of national celebrations (and the protests against it) of the Van Riebeeck Tercentenary in both South Africa and the Netherlands. This chapter explores the meaning of Van Riebeeck as a historical persona around whom the image of South Africa as a 'white man's nation' was constructed, and how that image was taken up in the Netherlands. Additionally, this chapter examines how Dutch migrants in South Africa used the local Van Riebeeckcelebrations to simultaneously perform and display their shared Dutchness \u2013 through their white skins in Dutch costumes and the design of their common float - within the local community and their transnational belonging to both the Netherlands and South Africa. The concept of imagined communities provides a basis to analyse the in-and exclusion of groups of people from the modern nation state of South Africa, and to expand the concept to the imagining of transnational communities - in this specific case the so-called stamverwantschap ('kinship ties') connecting Dutchness and the Netherlands with white Afrikaners in South Africa.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":165328560,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2896758052","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"PurposeIndustry 4.0 technologies have the potential to improve the quality management performance of industrial companies. The paper analyses the influence of Industry 4.0 technologies on quality management aspects, but also the barriers that slow down the deployment of each Industry 4.0 technology and limit each impact.Design\/methodology\/approachThe impact of Industry 4.0 technologies on quality management aspects (QMAs) is a heterogeneous and multidimensional phenomenon dependent on the current context, a holistic multiple case study has been applied. Twenty-six case studies were carried out on eight Industry 4.0\u00a0technologies, with a minimum of two cases per technology. These cases were selected from the 168 projects presented in the four editions of the BIND 4.0 program, winner of the 14th edition of the European Enterprise Promotion Awards. The cases were selected based on a preliminary survey of 124 project managers. Subsequently, individual case and cross-case analyses for each technology were carried out. Finally, these results were confirmed by interviews with a minimum of two customers per Industry 4.0.FindingsResults show that the adoption of Industry 4.0 technologies positively affects QMAs. Specifically, the influences received by \"process control\" and \"customer satisfaction\" from all the Industry 4.0 technologies studied are medium to high. In addition, barriers from the \"economic and legal\" and \"workers\" categories exert greater influence than the barriers pertaining to \"organization\", \"lack of training and information\" and \"technology\".Research limitations\/implicationsThe main limitation is the generalizability of the findings of\u00a0qualitative studies (ergo the case study). In this sense, statistical generalizability, characteristic of a random sample, is not intended in this paper. Therefore, the use of multiple case studies has been chosen to reinforce analytical generalizations with corroborated evidence (literal replication).Practical implicationsManagers interested in adopting Industry 4.0 technologies\u00a0Ts should plan the implementation process to minimize the impact of these barriers and optimize the results for each stakeholder. In this sense, the barriers that concern the workers should be managed. It is the responsibility of managers to inform and explain how data will be handled, and how privacy concerns will be addressed.Social implicationsIt is essential to explain and convince workers about the need for a renewal of tasks. New types of jobs (i.e. the use of robots) will involve training for workers to enable their integration alongside the new technologies.Originality\/valueThis paper addresses two under-researched areas that are essential when defining strategies in the industrial business context. Firstly, the paper analyses the influence of each I40\u00a0T on each QMA. Secondly, it analyses the barriers to adopt that slow down the rollout of each I40\u00a0T and limits each impact.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":257486569,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1108\/ijqrm-10-2022-0292","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The high-temperature phase of LiBH4 (HT-LiBH4) exhibits a promisingly high lithium ion conductivity but is unstable at room temperature. We use density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate the stabilization effect of halogen and alkali cation\/anion substitutions on HT-LiBH4 as well the underlying mechanism for the high lithium ion conductivity. We find that increasing the substituent concentration enhances the stabilization of HT-LiBH4 (i.e., the DFT energy difference between the lowand high-temperature forms of substituted LiBH4 is reduced). Cation\/anion substitution also leads to a higher Li defect (vacancy, interstitial, and Frenkel) formation energy, thereby reducing the Li defect (vacancy, interstitial, and Frenkel) concentrations. Using DFT migration barriers input into kinetic Monte Carlo simulations and the Materials INTerface (MINT) framework, we calculate the room-temperature lithium ion conductivities for Li(BH4)1\u2212xIx (x = 0.25 and 0.5) and Li1\u2212yKyBH4 (y = 0.25).

Learning and memory performance were evaluated by Morris water maze (MWM) and step-down passive avoidance (PA) test. Changes in malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in the brain were determined by lipid peroxidation assay.\n\n\nRESULTS\nT2 VO mice exhibited learning and memory impairment in the MWM and PA tests. Treatment with CE ameliorated the learning and memory impairment of T2VO mice. Furthermore, CE significantly reduced MDA level in the brain of T2VO mice. On the other hand, administration of CE did not attenuate learning and memory impairment induced by scopolamine in mice.\n\n\nCONCLUSION\nThe present study demonstrated ameliorating effect of CE on learning and memory impairment in T2VO mice. Furthermore, it is likely that the positive effect of CE observed could be, at least partly, accounted by its antioxidative property. Thus, CE might be beneficial for memory impairment in which oxidative stress is an underlying cause.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":10620112,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2415295296","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"I am pleased to introduce our second themed issue for 2013. It comprises six papers that represent new research in archaeological and ethnographic conservation. While there is a strong emphasis on conservation of waterlogged artefacts, the range of topics includes basketry, wood, iron, and ceramics. The issue begins with a review paper by Dana K. Senge and Ellen Carrlee on conservation treatments of waterlogged basketry from the northwest coast of North America. This paper is very directly relevant to practicing conservators, as the authors review tests and treatments developed over the past 50 years by archaeologists and conservators to try to stabilize degraded basketry materials recovered from water-saturated archaeological sites, to minimize damage to the woven structures as the baskets dry. Much of the material for this review was gathered from unpublished conservation records and other sources that are difficult to access. This very practical review and evaluation of past treatments should help propel the field forward, not just for America's Pacific Northwest, but for conservators of archaeological and ethnographic basketry from other regions of the world where water-saturated sites are found. The first two original research and treatment papers also focus on waterlogged materials, but in this case, on wood artefacts. C\u00e9line R\u00e9mazeilles and colleagues investigate the role of Fe(II) sulphides in waterlogged archaeological woods. They note that wood and other organic objects recovered from seawater may show damage from sulphate reducing bacteria, especially where wood is in contact with steel; this is particularly a problem with wood recovered from shipwrecks. Post-excavation damage can be extensive as oxidation during storage or exhibition leads to formation of large crystals; their research identified a number of such crystalline phases. Dina Dedic and colleagues also studied deterioration of wood timbers from a ship, in this case the Swedish warship Vasa. Their objective is to better understand why the interior and the surface region of the timbers vary in cellulose degradation, pH, and amount of oxalic acid present. They conclude that the presence of iron (as rust) on the surface causes a neutralization of the wood, protecting it from oxalic acid hydrolysis, but not to the same extent as that observed for other acids found in Vasa wood. The next two research papers focus on treatment of archaeological iron. M. J. Drews and colleagues investigate the application of subcritical fluids for stabilization of marine archaeological iron. They note the challenges inherent in desalinating large and complex iron artefacts recovered from the ocean. Stabilization requires removing as much Cl as possible without affecting the integrity of the corroded object, which may have thick and highly unstable corrosion layers. The authors present research into the use of subcritical fluids to achieve this stabilization, using Civil War era cast iron shells recovered from the ocean, as well as wrought iron rivets and metal shavings from the submarine that sank during that war, the H. L. Hunley. Melanie Rimmer and colleagues also present research on desalination of archaeological iron, here looking at the impact of chloride desalination on corrosion rate. They note thatwhile desalination of archaeological iron reduces chloride concentration and enhances object stability, the reduction in corrosion rate produced by this process has never been quantified. They focus on archaeological iron nails, and are able to establish the quantitative impact of desalination on corrosion behavior, discussing how this treatment approach can help in managing the preservation of archaeological iron. The final paper in the issue is by Paula Artal-Isbrand and Philip Klausmeyer, and uses reflectance transformation imaging (RTI) and 3D laser scanning confocal microscopy to examine the relief and contour lines on ancient Greek red-figure vases and vase fragments. These new imaging tools prove useful in answering questions about tools, techniques, and production sequences of the Greek vase painters, leading to some exciting new discoveries. The authors are able to propose a likely evolution for decorative techniques used throughout the period of red-figure vase production. This group of papers represents a selection of new, cutting edge research in archaeological and ethnographic conservation, and so are presented together in this themed issue. However, readers will find other stellar examples scattered throughout various volumes and issues of the journal. Studies in Conservation always welcomes papers on this topic, and we hope to see more submitted in the future.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":218661648,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1179\/0039363013Z.000000000133","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Objective To explore the functions of FGFR3 signals in mouse organogenesis. Method We first made a fgfri knockout construct, in which the exon 9 and 10 of fgfr3 were floxed and could be deleted by Cre-mediated recombination of LoxP. Then, we obtained and identified the targeted ES clones. On the basis of analysis of Cre-mediated recombination of LoxP, a conditional targeting construct was made. At first, the Cre-mediated deletion of floxed exon 9 and 10 of fgfr3 was confirmed by introduction of the targeting vector into Cre-expressing AmI bacteria. The transfection of targeting vector into ES cells was then carried out by electroporation, transfected ES cells were screened with G418 and Gancyclovir, and finally, the ES clones with correct targeting event were identified by Southern blot and PCR. Results PCR, restriction enzyme digestion and sequence analysis confirmed that a targeting vector for knockout of murine fgfr3 was successfully made. 180 ES clones were collected after screening by both G418 and Gancyclovir, and two positive ES clones were found by Southern blot of 5'-end flank probe, but their LoxP inside intron 8 were found lost by PCR. Conclusion After successful making of targeting construct for knockout of murine fgfr3, two targeted ES clones were obtained with neo insertion in intron 8 of fgfr3, which can be used to generate a mouse strain with downregulated expression of fgfr3.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":88051366,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2363527006","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Our previous work has shown that the error correction of optical character recognition (OCR) on degraded historical machine-printed documents is improved with the use of multiple information sources and multiple OCR hypotheses including from multiple document image binarizations. The contributions of this paper are in demonstrating how diversity among multiple binarizations makes those improvements to OCR accuracy possible. We demonstrate the degree and breadth to which the information required for correction is distributed across multiple binarizations of a given document image. Our analysis reveals that the sources of these corrections are not limited to any single binarization and that the full range of binarizations holds information needed to achieve the best result as measured by the word error rate (WER) of the final OCR decision. Even binarizations with high WERs contribute to improving the final OCR. For the corpus used in this research, fully 2.68% of all tokens are corrected using hypotheses not found in the OCR of the binarized image with the lowest WER. Further, we show that the higher the WER of the OCR overall, the more the corrections are distributed among all binarizations of the document image.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":16308563,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2038329042","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1145\/2501115.2501126","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Background: Despite increasing availability of three\u2010dimensional imaging modalities for estimating right ventricular (RV) size, linear and two\u2010dimensional measures of RV size are the most universally accessible clinical methods. Right ventricular end\u2010diastolic area (RVED area) is known to identify pulmonary pathologies and have prognostic value for cardiovascular mortality in various disease states. To date, there is a paucity of adequately powered studies to define gender\u2010 and ethnicity\u2010related differences in normal RVED area. Therefore, we derived gender\u2010based normative values for echocardiographic measurements of RVED area, in a large bi\u2010racial cohort of young adults. Methods: Healthy young adults participants (n = 2088) in the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) study, aged 23\u201335 years, at the time of echocardiogram, were evaluated. RVED area was stratified according to gender and race. The contributions of clinical, allometric and left heart morphology and function to the variability in RVED area were determined. Results: RVED area in males was significantly larger than in females of similar age, but whites had similar values compared to same\u2010gender blacks. RVED area for men and women of >24.7 cm2 and 20.7cm2, or RVED area indexed to BSA (cm2\/m2) of >12.6 and >11.7, respectively, are at the 97.5th percentile of normal values. RVED area correlated significantly with left ventricular volume and left atrial size. Lung capacity measured as FVC showed significant body size adjusted correlation with RVED area only in black males. Conclusions: This study provides normative values for echocardiographically defined RV end\u2010diastolic area, and highlights the necessity to use gender\u2010specific normative values.

+{"text":"Waste emplacement and activities associated with construction of a repository system potentially will change environmental conditions within the repository system. These environmental changes principally result from heat generated by the decay of the radioactive waste, which elevates temperatures within the repository system. Elevated temperatures affect distribution of water, increase kinetic rates of geochemical processes, and cause stresses to change in magnitude and orientation from the stresses resulting from the overlying rock and from underground construction activities. The recognition of this evolving environment has been reflected in activities, studies and discussions generally associated with what has been termed the Near-Field Environment (NFE). The NFE interacts directly with waste packages and engineered barriers as well as potentially changing the fluid composition and flow conditions within the mountain. As such, the NFE defines the environment for assessing the performance of a potential Monitored Geologic Repository at Yucca Mountain, Nevada. The NFe evolves over time, and therefore is not amenable to direct characterization or measurement in the ambient system. Analysis or assessment of the NFE must rely upon projections based on tests and models that encompass the long-term processes of the evolution of this environment.

+{"text":"We consider a model proposed before for a time-reversal-invariant topological superconductor (TRITOPS) which contains a hopping term $t$, a chemical potential $\\mu$, an extended $s$-wave pairing $\\Delta$ and spin-orbit coupling $\\lambda$. We show that for $|\\Delta|=|\\lambda|$, $\\mu=t=0$, the model can be solved exactly defining new fermion operators involving nearest-neighbor sites. The many-body ground state is four-fold degenerate due to the existence of two zero-energy modes localized exactly at the first and the last site of the chain. These four states show entanglement in the sense that creating or annihilating a zero-energy mode at the first site is proportional to a similar operation at the last site. By continuity, this property should persist for general parameters. Using these results we correct some statements related with the so called \"time-reversal anomaly\". Addition of a small hopping term for a chain with an even number of sites breaks the degeneracy and the ground state becomes unique with an even number of particles. We also consider a small magnetic field applied to one end of the chain.

+{"text":"Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) has been used in the treatment of epilepsy and depression for more than 20 years. Although the invasive cervical method is the most preferred application, side effects such as cough, voice change and hoarseness can be seen due to negative effects on the recurrent laryngeal nerve (a branch of the vagus nerve). Auricular VNS has been preferred recently due to its non-invasiveness, but uncertainty about the stimulation parameters continues. We tested the hypothesis that auricular VNS can affect voice and its features indirectly via afferent nerve connections reaching the nucleus tractus solitarius. Two patients previously using auricular VNS device for different diseases were requested to record their voices before and after the stimulation. Their devices (Vagustim) were changed with new version to check the usage of the patients. Sound recordings at different VNS frequencies (1-150 Hz) were collected by a mobile phone and analyzed with Praat and our MATLAB algorithm. Fundamental frequency (f0), jitter, shimmer, and harmonic to noise ratio (HNR) owere evaluated. The alteration was highest at 100 Hz and 30 Hz VNS for the male and female patients respectively. Audio recordings before and after 30 Hz (for female) and 100 Hz (for male) VNS at different durations (5-30 min) on different days were repeated and compared by Praat and our algorithm. Some discrepancy between the parameters jitter, shimmer, and HNR are detected between the algorithms, which is accounted to the fact that it is not standardized whether the algorithm uses only a specific part of the input signal or the whole signal. However, when the ratio of change of these parameters are considered, fundamental frequency and the HNR were found to be highly consistent for developing an algorithm to govern the stimulation parameters in an automated way. Furthermore, the same ratios for jitter and shimmer are also promising after some improvement to be included in such an algorithm. These results suggest that auricular VNS can affect voice and its parameters, but this change is related with stimulation parameters. It seems necessary to develop specific software and algorithms that can detect this change well.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":246301603,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.54856\/jiswa.202205193","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.54856\/jiswa.202205193","status":"HYBRID"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"There is acknowledged variability in the Circle of Willis in the general population, yet the structure and function relationship of the cerebrovasculature is poorly understood. We aimed to demonstrate the feasibility of combining high resolution imaging techniques and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to describe cerebrovascular structure and function in vivo. We examined the null hypothesis that monozygotic (MZ) twins (18-30yrs) would exhibit similar CoW structure and function. Six twin pairs underwent 3T magnetic resonance angiography of the head and neck and B-mode Doppler ultrasound for velocity and diameter recordings in the vertebral and internal carotid arteries under three conditions (rest, hypercapnia and exercise). Artery diameter, length, tortuosity and bifurcation angle were assessed in regions of interest of the CoW. CFD simulated hemodynamics to determine the cardiac-cycle time averaged wall shear stress (TAWSS), oscillatory shear index (OSI) and relative residence time (RRT). We observed low and insignificant intra-class correlations (ICC) between twins in all regions for diameter (ICC range 0.000-0.657, P>0.05), two of four regions for length (ICC range 0.355-0.368, P>0.05), all regions for tortuosity (ICC range 0.270-0.505, P>0.05), and all bifurcation angles (ICC range 0.000-0.547, P> 0.05). Similarly, no significant correlations were apparent for cerebral blood flow or CFD-derived measures of TAWSS, OSI and RRT, at rest or in response to hypercapnia or exercise. Therefore differences exist in CoW structure and associated shear stress in response to physiological stimulation.

+{"text":"Faith-Based Finno-Ugric Outreach: Estonian Christian Missionaries among Kindred Peoples in Russia\n\nThis article provides an initial overview of the role of Christianity in the Finno-Ugric movement and the instrumentalisation of Finno-Ugric identity. It analyses the mission activity conducted by Estonians (and Finns to some extent) among speakers of Finno-Ugric (Uralic) languages in Russia. Above all, the writings of missionaries are used as the source \u2013 primarily mission publications published in Estonia. The background is the author's fieldwork conducted among Nenets reindeer herders, who have been influenced by Russian and Ukrainian Protestant missionaries, and the Udmurt people living on the far side of the Kama, the latter being untouched by mission work. In both communities, religion and language inherited from forebears have a noteworthy role, even though the younger generation is becoming equally bilingual (the Russian language often dominates) and fewer and fewer young people take part in the non-Christian rituals passed down by their ancestors. \nThe first half of the article gives an overview of how the church's outreach directed at peoples who speak Finno-Ugric languages (h\u00f5imumisjon and h\u00f5imut\u00f6\u00f6 are Estonian terms used) developed and the ideology behind it. The second half focuses on the activities of Estonian and Finnish missionaries in Russia. The author looks at the reception that the Erzya and Moksha Mordvins, Mari, Udmurts and Zyrian Komis have given the missionaries and also examines Protestant relations with the Russian Orthodox Church and representatives of local native religions.\nWhereas the collapse of the Soviet Union saw extensive missionary activity in Russia, Protestants from Estonia and Finland (mainly Lutherans, Methodists, Baptists and Pentecostals) set out to actively spread the gospel among Finno-Ugric peoples living in Russia. As Estonians and Finns are often accepted as 'kin', missionaries see this as a 'niche provided by God', which should be utilised. The goal for the missionaries is to create a Christian community where the kindred brothers and sisters become religious brethren. In spite of accusations to the contrary, they consider their endeavour something that will save Finno-Ugric cultures and languages, proceeding from the attempt to bring eastern 'kindred peoples' closer to the Protestant world and the world of the Estonians and Finns and the possibility of redemption.\nProtestant Estonian and Finnish missionaries portray themselves as preservers of the local languages. In practice, however, their activities are quite conflicting. On one hand, the need to make religious texts available in native languages is stressed, and they participate in organising translation of Christian texts and promote the local mission in the indigenous languages. On the other hand, the primary language used for outreach is not the local language but Russian, as Russian proficiency is predominant among Finno-Ugrians (although not always on a par with that of Russians). As the primary objective is to convert as many people as possible to Christianity, it is not of primary importance for missionaries to learn the local language. Due to conflicting values and practical choices, few native-language congregations are created.\nEstonian and Finnish Protestants style themselves as preservers of local cultures. The role model is that of Estonian and Finnish Christian popular cultures where the role of 'paganism' is under control and the elements of national culture tend to be integrated into a cultural whole. Missionaries cultivate an image of culture as something that can be dressed, sung, eaten, but not as something that relates to the house guardian spirits or the souls of ancestors, communicating with whom is a factor underlying the creation of a major part of the visible culture. To sum up, the author asserts that Christianisation as a culture-changing force has all the more powerful an effect if cultural changes are resisted.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":159141112,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2912918918","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.33302\/ERMAR-2018-007","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Numerical modeling was used to identify key parameters for the development of the falling-stage systems tract and the standard-model anatomy, and to determine their stability domains in this parameterspace. Well-documented case studies were used to compare model results and field observations. Key parameters are the rates of sea-level fall, erosion and carbonate production with slope angle as a modifying factor. The falling-stage systems tract is favoured by low rates of fall, low rates of erosion, high rates of carbonate production, and low slope angle. The effects of subaerial and marine erosion are similar. The two variables are linearly correlated in a wide range of conditions and the sum of subaerial and marine erosion rates can be plotted on one axis after appropriate conversion. Numerical reconnaissance plus data from field observation indicate that the geologically probable space for the falling-stage systems tract is large and the phenomenon should be common in tropical carbonates.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":128740917,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2769055677","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1002\/9781444312065.CH19","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

This paper introduced a large-scale model test for an X-section pile and a circular pile with the same cross-sectional area subjected to cyclic axial load in sand. The experimental results demonstrated that cyclic axial load contributed to the degradation of shaft friction and pile head stiffness. The dynamic responses of X-section pile were determined by loading frequency and loading amplitude. Furthermore, comparative analysis between the X-section pile and the circular pile revealed that the X-section pile can improve the shaft friction and reduce the cumulative settlement under cyclic loading.

+{"text":"INTRODUCTION: The microbiological diagnosis of leptospirosis comprises bacteriological and serological methods. The former ones allow the direct detection of leptospires and are considered presumptive with the exception of culture. Therefore, they constitute invaluable tools for rapid diagnosis, mainly in samples from deceased subjects. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate a modified Fontana silver staining method in experimentally infected samples. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Human and animal (hamster) urine samples were experimentally infected with different strains of Leptospira interrogans sensu lato. Liquid culture medium, leptospira cultures, experimentally infected and non-infected human urine samples, clarified and non-clarified imprints, and clarified and non-clarified suspension smears from tissues of experimentally infected and non-infected hamsters were applied for the ass essment of silver staining. The analytical sensitivity of the assay was compared with dark field microscopy and culture. Other bacterial and fungi species were also used. RESULTS: The modified Fontana silver staining allowed the accurate observation of the well-defined leptospire helical structure. On leptospire cultures from infected human samples, we could observe until (1-10) \u00d7 103 leptospires\/ml, higher sensitivity in comparison with direct dark field microscopy and lower in comparison with culture. The best results in tissues were obtained on clarified imprints and non-clarified suspension smears. Morphological and stainable structures compatible with leptospires were not observed in the samples without them. CONCLUSION: This procedure allowed differentiating the characteristic morphology of leptospires. As its application suggests, it consists of a simple and easily conducted procedure with stable reagents.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":32723118,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1964120166","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1590\/S1676-24442013000100006","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"A corundum-hibonite inclusion, BB-5, has been found in the Murchison carbonaceous chondrite. This is the first reported occurrence of corundum as a major phase in any refractory inclusion, even though this mineral is predicted by thermodynamic calculations to be the first condensate from a cooling gas of solar composition. Ion microprobe measurements of Mg isotopic compositions yield the unexpected result for such an early condensate that *6Mg excesses are small: 6,v*6Mg = 7.0 f 1.6%0 for hibonite and 5.0 + 4.8Ao for corundum, despite very large *'Al\/\"'Mg ratios, 130 and 2.74 X IO\", respectively. Within the errors, 6N26Mg does not vary over this exceedingly large range of 27Al\/*4Mg ratios. The extreme temperature required to melt this inclusion makes a liquid origin unlikely, except possibly by hypervelocity impact involving refractory bodies. If, instead, BB-5 is a direct gas-solid condensate, textural evidence implies that corundum formed first and later reacted to produce hibonite. In this model, BB-5's uniform enrichment in 26Mg must be a characteristic of the reservoir from which it condensed. Because severe difficulties are encountered in making such a reservoir by prior decay of Z6Al, nebular heterogeneity in magnesium isotopic composition is a preferred explanation.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":53354917,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Traffic normalization, i.e. enforcing a constant stream of fixed-length packets, is a well-known measure to completely prevent attacks based on traffic analysis. In simple configurations, the enforced traffic rate can be statically configured by a human operator, but in large virtual private networks (VPNs) the traffic pattern of many connections may need to be adjusted whenever the overlay topology or the transport capacity of the underlying infrastructure changes. We propose a rate-based congestion control mechanism for automatic adjustment of traffic patterns that does not leak any information about the actual communication. Overly strong rate throttling in response to packet loss is avoided, as the control mechanism does not change the sending rate immediately when a packet loss was detected. Instead, an estimate of the current packet loss rate is obtained and the sending rate is adjusted proportionally. We evaluate our control scheme based on a measurement study in a local network testbed. The results indicate that the proposed approach avoids network congestion, enables protected TCP flows to achieve an increased goodput, and yet ensures appropriate traffic flow confidentiality.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":11559425,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2741644942","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/ICC.2017.7996936","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"South Asian Journal of Cancer \u2666 October-December 2014 \u2666 Volume 3\u2666 Issue 4 231 Epidemiology of primary small cell carcinoma of the esophagus: A retrospective study DOI: 10.4103\/2278\u2010330X.142993 Dear Editor, The common histological type of esophageal cancer is squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma. Primary small cell carcinoma of the esophagus (SCEC) is an extremely rare occurrence and not much is known about the epidemiology of SCEC from this part of the world. The age adjusted incidence rates (AAR) of esophageal cancers in both males and females is high in this part of the country and which are among the highest in the world. The AAR ranges from 27\u201071.4\/100,000 population in males to 18.3\u201030.2\/100,000 populations in females.[1] The prognosis of SCEC is considered to be poor. SCEC was first described in 1952 by McKeown as oat cell carcinoma of the esophagus.[2] In this analysis, we have retrospectively analyzed the gender distribution, median age, sub sites, and the median survival of patients with SCEC of our population. The data set of patients with SCEC was obtained from the cancer registry of a tertiary care cancer center in Eastern India. The data consisted of cases registered during the period from January 2010 to December 2012. The esophageal sub sites were categorized by thirds that is, upper, middle, and lower third. The follow\u2010up for information on survival was both passive and active. The survival was estimated from the date of first diagnosis. The follow\u2010up for survival was until March 1, 2014. The survival was calculated in months from the date of first diagnosis. Kaplan\u2010Meir estimate was used to predict the survival probabilities of the patients and estimate the median survival period. SPSS version 19.0 (IBM Inc) was used for the present analysis. Of 2487 (n) patients with esophageal cancers registered at our registry, a total of 11 patients with histological confirmation of SCEC were obtained from the data base. The details of gender, age and sub sites are shown in Table 1. Of 11 (n) patients, there were 8 males and 3 female patients. The age of the patients ranged from 41 to 70 years. The median age was 57 years (standard deviation = 10.5). Distribution of sub sites were in the upper third in 45% (5\/11) patients, middle third in 45% (5\/11) and lower third in 10% (1\/11) of cases were shown in Table 1. The information on death was obtained in four patients and the rest seven patients were alive or censored at variable length of time from the date of diagnosis. The cumulative survival probability at the end of 22 months was 36% [Figure 1]. The median survival was 15 months from the date of first diagnosis. Primary SCEC accounts for 0.5\u20104% of all primary esophageal malignancies.[3,4] In our retrospective analysis, SCEC accounted for 0.4% of all primary esophageal malignancies. The low proportion (0.4%) of SCEC in comparison with overall primary esophageal malignancies is significant in view of high AAR for esophageal cancers in our population. Previous reports showed male to female ratio varies from 3.2:1 to 1.5:1.[3,5] In our series of 11 patients, the male to female ratio was 2.6:1, which was in between the previous reports. The median age in a previous report was shown to be 56 years of age,[5] which was similar to the median age (57 years) in our analysis of patients with SCEC. Most of the cases of SCEC in the series of casas et al. were seen at the mid and lower third and Hudson et al. have shown that there was no case of SCEC in the upper third of esophagus.[3,6] This is in complete contrast to our series where 45% of patients with SCEC were at the upper third of esophagus and only in approximately 10% of patients had SCEC at lower third. SCEC is an aggressive malignancy with poor prognosis. The median survival in patients with SCEC depended upon the treatment received by the patient and it ranged from 7 to 18 months.[5,7\u20109] However, in this series no such attempt was made to estimate the differential survival based upon the treatment received by these patients. As any prospective clinical studies of this rare entity is not feasible, hence information from large retrospective series from referral centers with correlative data are imperative.[10] In our series, the survival probability at 22 months from date of diagnosis was <36% with a median survival of 15 months from the date of first diagnosis. Furthermore, our analysis has shown that in comparison with different population groups the sub sites for the occurrence of SCEC will be different, and upper and middle thirds are common sub sites to develop SCEC in our population.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":5160318,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2067224695","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.4103\/2278-330X.142993","PubMedCentral":"4236706","ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Significant emphasis has been placed on fuel tank safety since the TWA flight 800 accident in July 1996. Upon investigation the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) determined that the probable cause of the accident was an explosion of the center wing tank (CWT), resulting from ignition of the flammable fuel\/air mixture in the tank. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has focused research to support two primary methods of fuel tank protection -- ground-based and on-board -- both involving fuel tank inerting. Ground-based fuel tank inerting involves some combination of fuel scrubbing and ullage washing with Nitrogen Enriched Air (NEA) while the airplane is on the ground (applicable to all or most operating transport airplanes). On-board fuel tank inerting involves ullage washing with OBIGGS (on-board inert gas generating system), a system that generates NEA during aircraft operations. An OBIGGS generally encompasses an air separation module (ASM) to generate NEA, a compressor, storage tanks, and a distribution system. Essential to the utilization of OBIGGS is an oxygen sensor that can operate inside the aircraft's ullage and assess the effectiveness of the inerting systems. OBIGGS can function economically by precisely knowing when to start and when to stop. Toward achieving these goals, InnoSense LLC is developing an all-optical fuel tank ullage sensor (FTUS) prototype for detecting oxygen in the ullage of an aircraft fuel tank in flight conditions. Data would be presented to show response time and wide dynamic range of the sensor in simulated flight conditions and fuel tank environment.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":110566985,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2092308423","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1117\/12.684769","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Material and methods. In the study, 87 patients included, both genders, with CHF, who had been planned for cardiac surgery. All underwent standard investigations and CHF treatment, as other pathologies. Myocardium specimens from the right atrium appendage (RAA) were collected during surgery, investigated with general histology, immune histochemistry (expression of MMP-9, TIMP-1 and \u044038\u03b1MAPK) methods. For the evaluation of treatment influence on myocardium, intervention groups were selected: enalapril and metoprolol, perindopril and amlodipine (Prestance\u00ae, \"Les Laboratoires Servier\", France). In all participants, at 10-14 day post surgery, the rate of complications was evaluated, by groups. At least one complication led to selection the participant as adverse in-hospital outcome. The relations were studied, of post-surgery complications with EchoCG data and morphological changes in LAA myocardium, taken the gender and left ventricle ejection fraction (LVEF). Results. In cardiac surgery group with heart failure and preserved LVEF (HFpEF) with the increase of CHF functional class, normal LVEF remained, and there was worsening of the LV diastolic function. In HFpEF males there was decrease of EF with transition to \"grey zone\" by III functional class, and eccentric remodeling predominated with unchanged diastolic function. In HF mid-range EF group, regardless of gender, there was eccentric LV remodelling. In RAA myocardium of women there was lower grade of myocardial fibrosis and mononuclear areas of infiltration, and there was higher rate of cardiovascular as extracardiac complications. High grade of MMP-9 in RAA revealed in the group of HF mid-range EF and adverse outcome, regardless gender, and increased expression of \u044038\u03b1MAPK in females of thisgroup. In perindopril and amlodipine group there was lower grade of MMP-9 and \u044038\u03b1MAPK expression. Conclusion . The study demonstrated gender differences in remodelling of myocardium in HFpEF patients.

In the 1950s, the repeated use of the state of emergency created a continuum, connecting British colonies on three different continents in a single administrative network. Lessons learned in one location were applied in the next, causing the state of emergency to evolve into a blueprint for post-war counterinsurgency in colonial settings. We contend that the toolkit of emergency technologies was not limited to legal measures, arguing instead for a more capacious category. By examining the place of Cyprus in this network and the effect of this broader 'toolkit' on the ground, this article views the Cyprus Emergency as one of multiple decolonisation wars in the Cold War era. In doing so, it highlights the coloniality of the island, an aspect of Cypriot history which is often overlooked in favour of more regional frameworks.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":249815211,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1017\/s096077732200008x","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/core\/services\/aop-cambridge-core\/content\/view\/4531EDA7B02917B36748806C59792A4B\/S096077732200008Xa.pdf\/div-class-title-technologies-of-emergency-cyprus-at-the-intersection-of-decolonisation-and-the-cold-war-div.pdf","status":"HYBRID"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"fibrosis, cancer and severe burns. AP consists of two domains: a C-terminal calcium-binding domain containing glycineand aspartate nonapeptide repeats, characteristic of the Repeats in ToXin (RTX) proteins, and an N-terminal proteolytic (passenger) domain. The exoprotease is secreted through a type I secretion system (TISS) composed of a tripartite complex formed by an ABC-transporter, a membrane fusion protein, and a TolC-like outer membrane protein. TISS substrates vary widely in size and function and include toxins, lipases, and proteases. The conserved feature of the substrate proteins is the presence of one or more RTX motifs. Previously, we have demonstrated that calcium regulates multiple conformations of AP. Calcium-induced RTX domain folding serves to chaperone the folding of the protease domain. Here we show that disruption of the calcium-binding sites alters both the affinity and cooperativity of calcium-induced folding, measured in the RTX domain and in the full-length protease, and that the binding sites are not isoenergetic. We have also evaluated the role of calcium in the secretion of the protease, as previous studies have suggested that calcium may facilitate protease secretion. Protein secretion was efficient when the passenger domain was maintained in an unfolded conformation and secreted into medium with high calcium concentrations. Secretion efficiencies decreased with mutations in the RTX domain and with passenger domains that were stable and folded in the bacterial cytoplasm. From these results we conclude calcium regulates protease conformation and may contribute to secretion efficiencies by maintaining specific protein conformations during translocation. These results provide a basis for understanding the calcium-associated secretion RTX proteins from multiple bacterial pathogens.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":211039405,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The lateral structure of the MSM detector allows easy incorporation into optoelectronic integrated circuits. In this paper, a new, simplified, broad-band model of the MSM detector is presented. Practical MSM detectors often exhibit an undesirable low frequency gain that is bias-dependent. It is shown in this paper that the trapping process involved in producing this gain can be modeled, in part, by including a passive equivalent circuit within the circuit model of the detector. The components of the equivalent circuit are related to the trap lifetime and the probability of a hole becoming trapped. The nonlinear effect resulting from the saturation of the electron velocity is modeled as a nonlinear current source whose magnitude is a function of bias voltage. The distributed nature of the interdigitated structure is modeled by a single set of coupled transmission lines. The trapping model and associated current sources are incorporated at the ends of the transmission lines to produce the overall model for the compete detector.

+{"text":"The vision of the Smart Grid includes demand-side peak shaving strategies, such as real-time pricing or profile's based tariffs, to encourage consumption such that the peaks on demand are flattened. Up to date, most works along this line focused on optimising via scheduling of home appliances or micro-storage the individual user consumption. Alternatively, in this paper we propose to exploit the consumer social side by organising them into coalitions of energy consumers with complementary needs. To this end, we propose the concept of virtual energy consumer (VEC) to capture the notion of a number of energy consumers, coming together to buy electricity, as an aggregate. To create such VEC's we consider that each consumer looks for potential partners for its coalitions through its contacts in a social network. In more detail, we propose a networkrestricted coalitional game, where: (i) each feasible VEC is evaluated with a metric that estimates the expected joint payment of the coalition of consumers within the electricity markets; (ii) the set of most efficient VEC's are identified (by solving the corresponding Coalition Generation Problem); and (iii) the joint payment of each VEC is divided among its members in such a way that any consumer can not be better off by deviating and forming a new VEC (i.e., we compute a core-stable payoff distribution if this exists or alternatively detect core emptiness). Moreover, we evaluate our approach on consumption data for a set of households located in UK. Our analysis provides interesting insights into the relationship between structure and stability of VEC's and prices within the electricity markets.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":6755232,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2581133631","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Machine learning is concerned with acquiring knowledge from an environment in a computational manner, in order to improve the performance. (See [15] for overview of ML.) Many forces over the past couple of decades have seen the blending of ML and NLP become increasingly common. The ever expanding availability of large corpora; more powerful computing resources; and a greater demand for natural language based applications, are three important factors. Many important tasks within NLP require a substantial amount of knowledge, usually provided manually by practitioners within the field. However, with a shift to automatic processing of large amounts of language data, empirical methods have sought to reduce the dependence of manually embedding knowledge into NLP systems, and to let learning algorithms acquire the knowledge from available data. Data classification is a thoroughly active research topic within ML, and much research where ML and NLP have been combined is aimed at transforming a common NLP problem so that it can be represented as a classification problem. As a result, it is not uncommon nowadays to see that most well known ML techniques have been applied to just about every possible NLP task, where feasible. See [24] for an excellent review on the marrying of these two areas, and [12] for more in depth coverage. Linear classifiers come in various flavours, but are all relatively simple to understand and are computationally efficient, particularly with 2-class problems. For example, linear threshold algorithms can calculate a weighted sum from input features, and then depending whether that sum is greater or smaller than a certain threshold, a decision can be made as its class. Thresholds are determined through the use of training data. Such classifiers have been applied to text categorisation [8, 19], shallow parsing [21] and POS tagging [26]. Decision trees are used to partition large samples of data into a hierarchical structure. Commonly associated as a tool for classification, they are also capable of generalising seen data into sets of rules.

Data for the study were collected from 114 faculty members of two universities in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. The results validated the majority (8 out of the 9) of the previously tested hypotheses and evidence of the significant contribution of social networks and shared goals on an employee's willingness of sharing knowledge. However, social trust has shown a significant contribution in the reverse direction which is very interesting and needs further in-depth exploration. Similarly, hypotheses 10 and 11, which were put to test for the first time, were not supported by the empirical data. As a whole, the results of this study warrant organizations that knowledge sharing is indisputable for remaining viable in the market. The results have also made this evident that employees are willing to share knowledge if organizations provide a more conducive atmosphere to affect knowledge sharing. The results also challenge the absoluteness of trust and demand organizations that could have negative results as well. The results have practical as well as theoretical implications. The study has some limitations as well.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":259509889,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.53568\/yyusbed.1233431","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/dergipark.org.tr\/en\/download\/article-file\/2888237","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Pitch estimation is commonly employed in voice quality analysis. The accuracy of pitch extraction is lower due to the influence of noises in a noisy environment. The Speech Signal is recorded by the Throat Microphone mounted on the neck. The microphone transforms the vibrations into signals that it picks up into equivalent speech signals. Typically, the throat speech is a high amplitude signal compared to the Acoustic Microphone Speech signal. Since Throat Microphone Speech Signal is relatively more robust to environmental variations, it can be used to detect Voiced\/Unvoiced regions of the Speech. Empirical mode decomposition (EMD) is employed for detecting voiced\/unvoiced speech regions and also for finding pitch from Throat Microphone Speech Signal. The experimental results show that the performance of the proposed approach is prominent as compared to other reported approaches.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":221664359,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Additive manufacturing (AM) is defined as a process of joining materials to make objects from 3D model data, layer by layer, as opposed to conventional subtractive manufacturing methodologies [1]. Most AM technologies usually apply powder or wire as a feedstock which is selectively melted by a focused laser or electron beam and consolidated in following cooling to form an object. With the advantages of rapid forming near-net shape parts without pre-treatment, the AM has recently provided a promising way of potential fabrication of complicated parts. AM has received great interest in aerospace, automotive, medical and nuclear industries. The nuclear industry recognizes its potentials to produce reactor components with enhanced performance and reduced supply chain. The AM transforms rapidly from prototyping to manufacturing applications, which require not only information of the process itself, but also the properties of AM parts depending on the process parameters. However, limited results are available about the AM materials, which are required for the industrial applications. The core components in a nuclear reactor are essential for a safe operation, which have several interfaces. All interfaces need to be inspected in detail to ensure a safe operation. The rod cluster control assembly (RCCA) must be compatible with the control rod drive mechanism (CRDM), as well as the control rod guide assembly (CRGA). During the reactor operation, the RCCA is moved up and down by means of the CRDM to control the nuclear chain reactions [2]. The CRGA is located in the upper core and is composed of several connected plates with holes that have a fitted form of the RCCA spider, which are called the guide cards [3]. Therefore, their geometrical compatibility should be checked regularly. In US pressurized water reactors (PWR), the RCCA and guide cards were found to be damaged by impact-sliding wear due to flowinduced vibration which generate metal-to-metal contacts [4]. The wear phenomena that occurred to guide cards by the control rod cladding become an emerging issue in the PWR industry. Austenitic 304L stainless steel (SS) is used extensively inside the reactor pressure vessel. The target component, the PWR guide card, is made of SS 304L. This alloy has long been used in the nuclear industry because of its high corrosion resistance and strength. The objective of our goal is to manufacture a new guide card with 3D printing that is designed to reduce flowinduced vibration. Prior to making objects, however, it is required to evaluate the basic properties of 3Dprinted materials. While extensive work has been conducted regarding AM of SS 316L [5-7], little work has been done for the evaluation of SS 304L. In addition, we employ two metal AM methods, including Powder Bed Fusion (PBF) and Directed Energy Deposition (DED), for a benchmark study. In this study, we performed the various mechanical tests of stainless streels made by PBF and DED methods, as well as the microstructural analysis. In addition, pin-on-disk wear test were conducted to examine the wear resistance of those samples.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":221088685,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Messages that pass the filtering phase then proceed to have their content analyzed for the presence of known sensitive information. This data loss prevention step is enhanced by incorporating an author profile signal that assesses the validity of the claimed authorship by capturing the stylometric signature embedded in each user's past message stream. The hypothesis being that the inference and subsequent inclusion of latent author traits such as gender, age and ethnicity will aid the data loss prevention solution by reducing the number of incorrect classifications. Experiments were conducted using message traffic that was generated during a field-training exercise conducted by members of the armed forces, as well as an internal repository of classified documents and a myriad of non-message based data sources. The results demonstrated that our proposed traffic-filtering classifier is successful in distinguishing between legitimate and illegitimate traffic.

Whilst the design of these sections at ambient temperatures is reasonably well understood, and models to predict the strength and failure modes of these elements at ambient temperatures correlate well with observations from tests, this appears not to be true in the case of fire resistant design. This paper reviews available data from furnace tests on CFS columns and assesses the statistical confidence in available fire resistance design models\/approaches used in North America and Europe. This is done using a meta-analysis comparing the available experimental data from large-scale standard fire tests performed around the world against fire resistance predictions from design codes. It is shown that available design approaches carry a very large uncertainty of prediction, suggesting that they fail to properly account for fundamental aspects of the underlying thermal response and\/or structural mechanics during fire.

+{"text":"The spray coating of particles is used in many industrial applications. One of the mechanisms involves the transfer of liquid between particles via liquid bridge formation \nand rupture; known as contact spreading. To date, there has been limited research into this mechanism. Indeed, the few studies reported have only been theoretical or modelling based. In this thesis, a first experimental approach focusing on the liquid contact spreading mechanism is presented. Experimental data has been used to describe and quantify this mechanism, and this work will contribute to the design and scale-up of wet coating processes. \nTwo coating techniques, commonly used in industry, have been employed for this study; tumbling drum and fluidised bed. Experiments were conducted using model materials; spherical alumina particles and aqueous polymer solutions as the coating liquids with varying viscosities. For these studies, specially designed experiments were conducted to study the contact spreading mechanism only. \nOf particular importance was the degree of coating uniformity within a batch of particles, quantified by the inter-particle coating variability (CoV). A new image analysis system, based on colorimetric measurement, has been developed to quantitatively determine the colour uniformity of particles coated with dyed solutions. Here, it is demonstrated that this novel method can analyse a large number of particles in a relatively small period of time and gives reproducible data with which to determine the CoV of a batch. Contact spreading was seen to occur in all systems studied. This supports the concept that contact spreading plays an important role in the spray coating process. Indeed, in the both tumbling drum and the fluidised bed system under certain conditions, a near-uniform coating was ultimately achieved. The rate of contact spreading and, therefore, the time to complete the coating process, was highly dependent on both formulation and operational parameters. For example, the lower the coating liquid viscosity, the faster the rate of contact spreading. An increase in tumbling speed in the drum and fluidisation velocity in the fluidised bed also resulted in an increase in contact spreading rate. The method of liquid addition in the fluidised bed was also found to affect the contact spreading process. \nThe findings are attributed to differences in the formation and rupture of liquid bridges between particles which influence the extent of liquid transfer via contact \nspreading. This study has demonstrated that the viscous Stokes number, Stv, and the critical Stokes number, Stc, as a function of collision velocity can be applied to predict the sticking criterion of the colliding particles in tumbling drum system. However, this is not the case for the fluidised bed system due to the large effect of drying in this system. In the fluidised bed systems, no correlation was found between the Stv and the time for \ncoating completion, tc, or the asymptotic CoV, which represents the extent of coating. However, in the tumbling drum system, a correlation was found between Stv and tc; increases in Stv gave a decrease in tc. In summary, this work has shown that the viscosity, collision velocity, the coating thickness and drying are the main parameters which influence the rate and extent of coating via contact spreading","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":201310018,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2966598516","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"In this paper, new probabilistic and dynamic (adaptive) strategies for creating multi-method ensembles based on the coral reef optimization with substrate layers (CRO-SL) algorithm are proposed. CRO-SL is an evolutionary-based ensemble approach that is able to combine different search procedures for a single population. In this work, two different probabilistic strategies to improve the algorithm are analyzed. First, the probabilistic CRO-SL (PCRO-SL) is presented, which substitutes the substrates in the CRO-SL population with tags associated with each individual. Each tag represents a different operator which will modify the individual in the reproduction phase. In each generation of the algorithm, the tags are randomly assigned to the individuals with similar probabilities, obtaining this way an ensemble that sees more intense changes with the application of different operators to a given individual than CRO-SL. Second, the dynamic probabilistic CRO-SL (DPCRO-SL) is presented, in which the probability of tag assignment is modified during the evolution of the algorithm, depending on the quality of the solutions generated in each substrate. Thus, the best substrates in the search process will be assigned higher probabilities than those which showed worse performance during the search. The performances of the proposed probabilistic and dynamic ensembles were tested for different optimization problems, including benchmark functions and a real application of wind-turbine-layout optimization, comparing the results obtained with those of existing algorithms in the literature.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":260442761,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.3390\/math11071666","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2227-7390\/11\/7\/1666\/pdf?version=1680236726","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Metamodeling is investigated as a tool for predictive process control of welding applications. The motivation for predictive process control is to incorporate physics-based models in place of empirical models that are statistically derived from repeated physical tests. Predictive process control promises to be particularly useful for high flexibility applications, such as frequent modifications of material or geometry. One of the primary challenges is that accurate physics-based, thermal models of the welding process usually require computationally expensive software such as FLUENT [1], while faster models, such as the analytical models of Rosenthal [2], are typically less accurate. Metamodeling or surrogate modeling is investigated as an alternative modeling technique for combining the accuracy of the detailed models with the speed of the faster models, thereby enabling real-time control of the welding process. Four of the most promising metamodeling techniques\u2014polynomial regression, multivariate adaptive regression splines, kriging, and support vector regression\u2014are selected based on a set of preliminary criteria. Each technique is used to build surrogate models of a representative welding process, based on FLUENT data obtained with statistically designed experiments. The techniques are compared with respect to accuracy, speed of model construction, and speed of prediction.

+{"text":"Abstract This article explores the use of affix-like elements of dubious status in word formation and proposes an analysis within Functional Discourse Grammar (Hengeveld and Mackenzie 2008. Functional Discourse Grammar: A typologically-based theory of language structure. Oxford: University Press). What these elements have in common is that they are all used recurrently in the formation of new words of the same type and result from general patterns used by speakers. Additionally, some of these formatives are semantically reinterpreted when embedded in morphologically complex forms. The proposal in this article is to analyze cases where meaningful bound morphemes take part as processes that take place within the lexicon by the insertion of a semantically compatible lexeme in a partially filled lexical frame. This analysis manages to distinguish cases in which a meaningful element is used as a free and a bound morpheme, since the FDG architecture dictates that free meaningful morphemes are analyzed as Stems, while bound morphemes with lexical content are analyzed as Roots at the Morphosyntactic Level. The units resulting from processes where bound meaningful elements intervene are analyzed as complex words consisting of a Stem and a Root at the Morphosyntactic Level. By contrast, the formation of complex words by the concatenation of free morphemes is accounted for by invoking a process of compounding within the grammar, whereby the combination of the lexemes at the Representational Level creates one complex property, which results in a complex word formed by two Stems at the Morphosyntactic Level.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":199471954,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1515\/ling-2016-0023","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

TAFIa inhibits the fibrinolysis by limiting plasmin generation.\n \n \n \n This double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled first-in-man study was conducted to investigate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of single ascending doses of S62798 in healthy subjects.\n \n \n \n Young male (18\u201340 years) subjects were randomised 3:1 to single ascending doses of S62798 ranging from 3.2 mg to 320 mg or placebo, administered as an intravenous bolus followed by a 7 hour 2-step infusion (part 1), or to 30 mg or 40 mg or placebo administered as a 1-min bolus (part 2). Follow-up ranged from 6 to 13 days post S62798 administration depending on cohorts. Exclusion criteria included bleeding disorders, recent bleeding, and abnormal blood coagulation parameters. Anticoagulant\/antiplatelet treatments were not allowed for 30 days prior to and during the study. Safety was assessed by recording adverse events (AE), physical examination, vital signs, biochemical, haematological and haemostasis parameters (prothrombin time, activated partial thromboplastin time, thrombin clotting time, D-Dimers and fibrinogen). Plasma and urine samples for PK assessment were collected pre-dose and up to day 13 to assess the full PK profile. In part 1, ex vivo TAFIa inhibition (spiking of purified human TAFIa) and in vitro clot lysis time were assessed at pre-dose, during and after infusion.

+{"text":"The historical relationship between government and procurement and the impact of procurment behaviour on public policy seems little discussed.. Many reviews of procurement place the antecedents of procurement in quite recent times. The reality is quite different. A significant level of evidence embeds the relationship between government and procurement policy and practices in ancient civilisation. Furthermore, since the Middle Ages, a number of governments have embarked on global trade in quite unexpected circumstances. In this paper, the author draws on new evidence to trace the history of procurement through the lens of public sector domination of new markets (in Asia and Africa in particular) by a number of European countries which sought to advance their colonial interests (and national wealth). The author then makes a complete shift to examine the way in which some private sector commercial interests have sought to doominate their markets, first by reducing competition and then, second, by dominating supplier markets. In this way, the author argues that the incidence of mergers and takeovers together with a range of opportunistic behaviours can be seen to subvert the impact of open competition. This paper examines the influence of procurement policy through both historical and contemporary lenses. It is a paper designed to provoke much wider thinking about the collective origins and influence of procurement policy and practices, the contrasts between the past and present public policy and some of the challenges faced by the intended beneficiaries of public policy. * Curtin University, Perth, Australia CAN PUBLIC POLICY BE CHALLENGED BY SUPPLIER MANAGEMENT POLICIES?","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":208049765,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Acori rhizoma(\u83d6\u84b2), Capsella bursa-pastoris(\u85ba\u83dc\u82b1), Lactuca sativa L., Erigeron canadensis(\u83bd\u8349), Stemona japonica(\u767e\u90e8) and Moschus sifanicus(\u9e9d\u9999) are single anti-insect incense which were used for textile. While, the latter was called. 'Yi Xiang(\u8863\u9999)' is mixed anti-insect incense which was used for textile. Artemisia asiatica(\u827e\u8449) and Zanthoxylum schinifolium(\u82b1\u6912) are anti-insect incense which were used for leather. Angelica dahurica(\u82b3\u9999) and Bamboo are anti-insect incense which were used for others. There were three main methods of using incense to prevent insects, that is, diffusing incense's strong scent and ingredients, exposing to smokes from burnt incense and washing with incense-boiled water. Diffusing incenses had a strong scent and antibiotic ingredients, which were put between books or clothes or into a storage box without being processed. If necessary, however, they were processed into rough powders that were in turn used singly, or otherwise mixed for a stronger scent and better insect elimination. Exposing to smokes from burnt incense was done as follows. A clothes was put on 'Long(\u7c60)' underneath which there was a boiling water. The clothes was humidified by the water and then exposed to smokes from burnt incense. 'Long(\u7c60)' had been long used since it was manufactured in the QinHan(\u79e6\u6f22) period for the first time. A local literature, Koryo TuGing(\u9ad8\u9e97\u5716\u7d93) shows that in the Koryo(\u9ad8\u9e97) period, BoShaLu(\u535a\u5c71\u7210) were used as a means of exposing clothes to smokes to prevent moths, similarly to China. Washing clothes with incense-boiled water was more effective in removing lots of worms and germs from clothes, but leaving the scent and ingredients of the used incense and maintaining the effect of anti-insect.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":191130218,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1579809169","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Yet these phases are usually more iterative than sequential, and often unpredictable in time and costs. The productivity of individual programmers tends to vary enormously and depend on elements difficult for management to control, such as personal talent and experience with particular applications. Software producers thus encounter budget and schedule overruns as the rule rather than the exception, especially when attempting to build large complex systems with many components for the first time. The sheer difficulty of software design and programming, exacerbated by a demand for programs rising faster than the supply of software engineers, led to a situation referred to as the \"software crisis\" as long ago as 1969.1 Despite years of advances in tools (specialized programs and databases that aid in the production of other software), design and programming techniques, and products themselves, software has remained a most vexing challenge to all concerned, with many problems that plagued pioneers still persisting through the 1980s. In other industries, years of refinements and innovations have made it possible for producers to make and customers to buy a wide range of sophisticated products at low cost. Without modern engineering and factory systems, for example, few people would ride in cars or use computers so frequently. But continuing difficulties in software have led academic researchers and practitioners alike to claim that frustrations are in part 1 misguided: Writing software is and may forever remain more like an art or a craft rather than evolve into a technology suited to the precise descriptions and predictability of true scientific, engineering, or manufacturing disciplines. Indeed, software appears to have characteristics that make conventional engineering or factory operations difficult to introduce-little product or process standardization to support economies of scale, wide variations in project contents and work flows, cumbersome tasks difficult and sometimes counterproductive to divide, de-skill, or automate. What is more, software producers have struggled to contend with constant evolution in product and process technology as well as in customer requirements, often for programs with unique or tailored features. To manage such a complex technology in such a dynamic industry, many software producers have resorted to a simple solution: They have tried to remain flexible in structure and processes, hiring as many experienced or \u2026","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":15579832,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The supervision of these PhD students, however, can reproduce neo-colonial knowledge relations, often in subtle ways.

This paper explores the experiences of a group of international PhD students in a social science faculty in a New Zealand university during the first two years of their doctoral studies. It examines how they responded to the displacement of their cultural values and priorities, the way they navigated intercultural engagements with supervisors, and their ensuing relationships with indigenous and ethnic allies in the faculty. Despite considerable pressure to conform to the dominant modes of academic knowledge production that characterise universities in settler nations, it is concluded that international students find ways of speaking out, often in highly coded forms, that complicate their subaltern academic status.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":151722707,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2598440802","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1080\/07294360.2017.1303457","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

We find that financial distress risk has a negative and significant impact on the level of total compensation and the fraction of equity-based compensation for executives, who are newly hired from either outside or inside the firm. This negative impact is accentuated in firms with high bank debt suggesting that banks as creditors play an active monitoring role in determining executive compensation packages in firms with high financial distress risk. Further, our results indicate that firms with financial distress risk are less likely to hire CEOs with prior CEO experience.

His scientific attitude was shaped by the born naturalist's need to advance by experience. All the same Linn\u00e6us is fully aware of the limitations of his experience and the inadequacies of its resources. Linn\u00e6us feels a need to find Nature revealed in a system where experience and reason are to be balanced in an equilibrium. One of his fundamental ideas is that Nature and Revelation can never come into conflict; that they can be reconciled in a unity in which the individual also becomes a part. An ultimate synthesis was for Linn\u00e6us an inevitable, even a metaphysical need, which abandons the insufficiency of the immanent outlook on nature, and at the same time represents its mystery. We know that in his early youth Linn\u00e6us came into contact with that ancient science where knowledge very often was magic and magic was knowledge. Linn\u00e6us' first confrontation with nature thus took place under such conditions; the details may remain uncertain, but there can be no doubt about such an influence.1 At the very beginning of his scientific career Linn\u00e6us writes in the unfinished study Fundamenta botanica (173o) that he \"cast off all prejudices, became a scepticus and doubted everything\". Although it may be difficult to tell exactly what Linn\u00e6us meant by this, and although the words perhaps only represent commonplaces of the contemporary debate, the phrase certainly indicates Linn\u00e6us' emancipation from his early reading.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":249671009,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

By contrast, the post-moder era is characterized by conflict and violence among, and within, the weakest states of the world, often in a process of political fragmentation that seems to roll inexorably forward.

+{"text":"Abstract : Colombia remains one of the most troubled countries in South America. The continued export of drugs coupled with a significant insurgent threat and increased violence against civilians, signals a crisis capable of disrupting the entire region. Insurgent groups such as the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), the National Liberation Front (ELN), and paramilitaries (AUC) have de facto control over large areas of the country and are funded primarily by trafficking cocaine and heroin to the United States and Europe. The U.S. has always maintained a strategic interest in Colombia and her neighboring states. Sixty-percent of U.S. oil is imported from Venezuela. Colombia's trade with U.S. companies exceeds $11 billion annually and is the fifth largest market of U.S. made goods. However, the Colombian drug trade accounts for more than seventy-percent of the cocaine entering the U.S, characterizing Colombia as a violent and corrupt state teetering on the edge of collapse. Consequently, regional security and the promotion of stable democratic governments are at the cornerstone of U.S. policy. The purpose of this monograph is to examine current U.S. and Colombian counter-drug strategies. Will the U.S. contribution in financial and military aid to 'Plan Colombia' ensure success? Is 'Plan Colombia' an appropriate strategy for ending Colombia's insurgency and reducing or eradicating the export of drugs to Europe and North America, or does the plan require modification to achieve the desired end-state? Will greater engagement in the internal affairs of Colombia drag the U.S. into a regional conflict similar to Vietnam? The monograph concludes that the implementation of Plan Colombia will begin the process of conflict resolution. Over time, military and financial aid from the U.S., European and Colombia's regional partners will bring to an end the civil war that started more than fifty-years ago.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":150950182,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2787037880","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.21236\/ada400798","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"http:\/\/www.dtic.mil\/dtic\/tr\/fulltext\/u2\/a400798.pdf","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The Campi Flegrei territorial system was interested in the most recent years by intense urban growth in terms of expansion, overlooking volcanic risk. The vulnerability of this areas is partly a consequence of decades of spatial planning policies that failed to take proper account of hazards in spatial planning. In this active volcanic area, where a short period evacuation could be necessary, the emergency management cannot be based only on the hazard map, but the systemic vulnerability must be also taken into account. To approach this problem a spatial relational GIS procedure was used to draw the emergency planning zone, the systemic vulnerability and collection zones maps essential to communicate scientific results to the population living in this dangerous area. At this aim, following the concept of regional evacuation, the emergency planning zone was drawn as the whole of the area threatened by the volcanic events occurred in the last 10 ka. Inside this area the spatial relation between the population density distribution and the outflows of routes, railway stations and harbours, necessary to leave the dangerous area, were investigated and 59 zones with different capability to support the residents evacuation in case of volcanic unrest were identified in the systemic vulnerability map. Basing on the concept that people could leave the dangerous area by transport means made available by Civil Protection, and using the threshold value of over-crowding of 0,70 people\/ m2, the zones where people could be collected and immediately evacuated in case of an imminent and dangerous volcanic event were also identified. These maps turn out to be powerful communication tools which help planners and disaster authorities in mitigating damages from volcanic hazards. They can contribute to enhance the volcanic hazard perception in Campi Flegrei volcanic field. The final step of the research here presented, in fact, was an assessment of the degree of risk perception aiming at investigating if and how much young people living in Campi Flegrei area are aware of inhabiting an active volcanic zone and how much they really know about the possibility of occurrence of an eruptive event in the future and the presence of evacuation plans.

From the information gathered, it was found that less than 1 per cent of these practices had guidelines for antimicrobial use; 11 per cent of prescriptions were for antimicrobials not licensed for use in horses and 5 per cent of prescriptions were under the recommended dose rate. clinicians in this study most commonly used the National office of Animal Health (NoAH) compendium of data sheets for Animal Medicines as a source of information regarding antimicrobials and their use (82.5 per cent), followed by continuing professional development courses (77.3 per cent).

+{"text":"Abstract : A new method for converting military vehicles to silicone brake fluid has been developed. This method involves the use of an intermediate fluid to bring about a density inversion so that when the silicone brake fluid is added to the system, the polyglycol\/solvent (2-Ethylhexanol; 2-EH) layer is displaced by the silicone fluid. The method has been tested in laboratory experiments as well as in several different types of vehicles. The use of this method, which is very effective at polyglycol removal, can be expected to increase the drop in maintenance costs (primarily due to component corrosion). In addition, the fluid remaining in the system after conversion has a very high vapor lock temperature and is functional at low temperatures.

+{"text":"The transfer of energy between systems that are not connected by physical contact between them can be accomplished by wireless power transfer methods, through electromagnetic field or radiation between a primary-transmitter and a secondary-receiver section. In the particular field of e-mobility, inductive power transfer systems have been extensively studied and implemented over the last years, proving their effectiveness of powering the drivetrain of electric vehicles, by a magnetic field between a set of loosely coupled coils. The power is generated by a concentrated primary in the form of a pad, or a distributed coil on a roadway track and transferred to the secondary, mounted on the electric vehicle. The operating principles of inductive power transfer include the analysis of the generated magnetic field through the basic electromagnetic equations. Capacitive components are introduced on both sides of the layout, to compensate for the large leakage inductance due to the increased air-gap, indicated by the required clearance between the vehicle and the road. Further studies are conducted on the design of distributed systems, to investigate variations of single and multiphase layouts. Several topologies are introduced and categorized, according to the direction of the field generating current and the single or multiple phase generation of the primary flux. The design variations are analyzed through finite element simulations and the output performance is assessed using equivalent circuit representation. In the particular case of multiphase primary section designs, the interphase mutual inductance can cause power circulation between the primary loops of adjacent phases. The problem is addressed by introducing an adequately designed terminal correction setup, inversing the power circulation between the affected phases. Additionally, an optimization algorithm is introduced, to calculate the optimum parameter values of selected designs, according to limitations and conditions imposed by the application, based on finite element simulation results. The relations between the design parameters and the operation variables are estimated, by analytical calculations and experimental measurements. The accuracy of the generated values is increased by a multiple iteration process and examples of the implementation are calculated for both single and three phase topologies. The output performance of the optimized designs is estimated and compared in terms of efficiency and power delivery for different operating conditions and alignment positions.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":108046971,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"97984487","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"IN a previous communication (Bielschowsky, 1944a) the production of benign and malignant tumours of the thyroid gland by the simultaneous feeding of 2-acetyl-aminofluorene and allyl-thiourea has been reported. It was shown that the goitrous gland was susceptible to the action of a carcinogen which did not affect the unstimulated thyroid. I have now studied the effects produced by the successive feeding of 2-acetylamino-fluorene and allyl-thiourea on the thyroid gland of rats. The purpose of these experiments was to obtain material more amenable to analysis of the pathogenesis of the acetyl-amino-fluorene induced tumours of the thyroid, and to decide whether the simultaneous feeding of the carcinogenic and the goitrogenic substances was a requisite for the production of these neoplasms. The question of whether simultaneous feeding necessarily implied combined action, could not be answered by the previous experiment. The interpretation was made still more difficult by the presence of cancers in organs other than the thyroid. Since malignant tumours can profoundly influence enzyme systems of distant organs, a possible effect of the other acetyl-amino-fluorene induced cancers on the thyroid had to be considered. Still another possible source of error had to be excluded; it was necessary to find whether the acetyl-amino-fluorene was stored in the body of the rat after prolonged feeding. No evidence for such a storage could be obtained (Bielschowsky, 1945). While these experiments were in progress, two important papers have been published which furnish valuable information. Van Dyke (1944) described the presence of adenomata of the thyroid in very old rats, and Griesbach, Kennedy and Purves (1945) reported the production of tumours of the thyroid by prolonged feeding of a Brassica seed diet.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":142577,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2303295178","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The thesis addresses a particular class of decision making problems. We name these tasks Actionable Forecasting problems. The main distinguishing feature of this type of decision problems is the fact that decisions are to be taken based on predictions of a numeric variable. Examples of such tasks include for instance the medical diagnosis of a patient based on predictions of some numerical indicator, or deciding which trading action should be taken depending on the prediction of the future evolution of the market prices. We study and compare two different alternative ways of addressing these decision problems: (i) using standard regression models to forecast the numeric variable and on a second step transform these numeric predictions into a decision according to some pre-defined and deterministic decision rules; and (ii) use models that directly forecast the right decision using classification models thus ignoring the intermediate numeric forecasting task. The objective of this study is to determine if both strategies provide identical results or if there is any particular advantage worth being considered that may distinguish each alternative. We also consider some potential limitations of each alternative, where we consider solutions such as the usage of cost-benefit matrices as well as re-sampling algorithms. We carry out two major studies to compare both alternatives to solve actionable forecasting tasks: (i) one involving a large set of generic and non-temporal tasks; (ii) and a second involving financial trading problems that use price time series with the goal of deciding whether to invest or not in the market with short and long positions. Decision making in the context of financial trading is a very relevant problem with very high economic impact. We argue that these tasks can be solved as a special instance of actionable forecasting problems. We have gathered enough experimental evidence to support the conclusion that classification models may be preferable to model the generic tasks, mainly when used together with cost-benefit matrices. We have also observed some differences according to the number of possible decisions per task. The higher the number of possible decisions\/actions to make, the higher will be the advantage of the classification models over the alternative of using regression models. With respect to the specific tasks of financial trading, both modelling alternatives revealed similar potential. The usage of re-sampling on such tasks brings too much risk to the models while using cost-benefit matrices on the classification models was beneficial once again. The last topic addressed in this thesis was the evaluation of financial trading systems. Based on the theoretical framework of activity monitoring, we have proposed a formalisation of financial trading as an instance of these data mining tasks. Using this formalisation we have described algorithms that allow to obtain the ideal timings for holding market positions given some trading preference criteria.

The cumulative percentages of administered radioactivity appearing in the bile at the end of an 8-hr period were: CA, 65%; M. 69%; NL, 71%; and N, 80%.

Intact female rats given single intraperitoneal doses of the labeled steroid eliminated radioactive metabolites in the urine and feces at a much slower rate than that seen in the bile of animals prepared with biliary fistulae. Focal excretion was the major route of elimination in intact animals for all steroids and accounted for 80% or more of the radioactive dose by the end of 7 days. Experiments were conducted to assess the enterohepatic circulation (EHC) of metabolites of the steroids. Over one-half of the intraduodenally infused radioactivity associated with the biliary metabolites of M (59%) and N (64%), and 34% of the infused radioactivity associated with the biliary metabolites of CA underwent EHC and appeared in the bile during a 24-hr period.

However, the non-linear and discrete nature of the optimal capacitor placement problem is a big barrier in front of the traditional optimization methods for global search. Therefore, this article proposes a powerful optimization technique based adaptive modified honey bee mating optimization algorithm to solve the optimal capacitor placement problem effectively. The proposed method consists of two sub-modification methods to let each solution choose the modification methods which best fit its situation. Also, in order to preserve the random search ability of the algorithm, the idea of the roulette wheel mechanism is employed in the selection process. The proposed algorithm can overcome the main shortcomings in the traditional honey bee mating optimization algorithm by using both local and global search schemes. Therefore, the problem investigated is formulated in a multi-objective framework optimizing the total power losses, voltage deviation, and cost of both power losses and capacitor investment simultaneously. As the result of the conflicting behavior of the objective functions, the idea of a non-dominated solution, called the Pareto solution, is employed to find the set of optimal solutions. During the optimization process, the set of Pareto solutions found is stored in an external memory called a repository. In order to avoid excessive growth of the repository, a fuzzy-based clustering technique is applied to the problem. The feasibility and superiority of the proposed method is tested through three standard test systems.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":110053186,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2075662962","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1080\/15325008.2013.816981","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The technique is based on acquiring pNAVs of an object in a baseline and rotated position and determining the axis of rotation (AOR) between data sets, thereby reducing 3D rotations to a 2D, planar rotation. Finding the AOR is simplified by prerotating the baseline trajectory, which forces the axis to lie within a specific polar region of a spherical shell in k\u2010space. Orbital navigator echoes are interpolated from the pNAV data in planes orthogonal to the AOR and cross\u2010correlated to determine the 2D rotation. The rotation about the AOR is used in conjunction with its orientation to calculate the overall 3D rotation.

In CCE, a characteristic evolution code takes numerical data on an inner worldtube supplied by a Cauchy evolution code, and propagates it outwards to obtain the space\u2013time metric in a neighborhood of null infinity. The metric is first determined in a scrambled form in terms of coordinates determined by the Cauchy formalism. In prior treatments, the waveform is first extracted from this metric and then transformed into an asymptotic inertial coordinate system. This procedure provides the physically proper description of the waveform and the radiated energy but it does not generalize to determine the flux of angular momentum or supermomentum. Here we formulate and implement a new approach which transforms the full metric into an asymptotic inertial frame and provides a uniform treatment of all the radiation fluxes associated with the asymptotic symmetries.

+{"text":"The fly control efficiency of neem products (Neem seed powder and Neem seed oil) against house fly was evaluated in experimental broiler shed in comparison with methoprene. One hundred and ninety two, day old broiler chicks were randomly divided into eight groups of twelve each with two replicates and the study was conducted for a period of five weeks. Methoprene and neem seed powder were given through the feed @ of 10 gm and 1 Kg per tonne of feed, respectively and neem oil (5% v\/v) was sprayed on broiler litter material twice a week until the completion of the study. The body weight and body weight gain were recorded at weekly intervals in all treatment groups. Fly larval count was measured on 7th, 14th, 21st, 28th and 35th days and pupicidal activity was observed on 21st day by in vitro method. There was no significant change in body weight and body weight gain on inclusion of neem seed powder and methoprene at first, second, third and fourth weeks whereas neem seed powder inclusion in the feed exhibited significant decrease in the body weight and body weight gain at fifth week. All the feed incorporated treatments possessed good larvicidal activity on 7th, 14th, 21st, 28th and 35th days. Mere spraying of neem oil possessed larvicidal effect but not in comparable level with methoprene or neem seed powder supplemented diets of broilers. Pupicidal activity was significant in neem oil sprayed group compared to that of control. It may be reasonably concluded that dietary inclusion of neem seed and neem oil spray in litter material showed good fly control effect without much affecting production parameters. The efficacy of neem products was comparable with that of methoprene and combination of neem products with methoprene was synergistic.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":229261463,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"3094682496","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"ABSTRACTCollege courses that are designed utilizing teaching and learning epistemologies and that are closely aligned with learning theory likely advance students' learning and eventual expertise. Deliberate practice theory is one such epistemology. It is aligned with cognitive load theory (CLT) and is ideally suited to teaching and learning applied skills in a manner that will allow learners to perform proficiently. In this article, (a) CLT and its implications for teaching and learning are briefly described, (b) deliberate practice theory is proposed as a theoretical framework to advance teaching, learning, and expert performance of applied skills, and (c) examples are presented that illustrate the effective implementation of deliberate practice approaches in college courses. The study was based on the instructional design of a course intended to teach graduate students the skills necessary to administer, score, and interpret individually administered standardized tests. The students were required to make DVD or webcam copies of their test administration. For each microskill of test administration, the students were required to indicate whether they completed the microskill correctly or incorrectly. If the micorskill was completed incorrectly, the students were required to identify the error and state how it should be corrected. Results indicate graduate students and interns need extensive deliberate practice with the test instruments they administer to achieve proficiency. Without attaining such proficiency, examiners can adversely affect the labeling of school-age children and their placement in special education programs. This work contributes to the theoretical and applied teaching and learning knowledgebase by integrating findings regarding the practical implications and uses of CLT, automaticity, and systematic, deliberate practice for teaching, learning, and performing applied skills.Keywords: Deliberate practice, Cognitive Load Theory, Applied skills, Scholarship of teaching and learningIntroductionIn universities around the world, faculty members are often required to teach their students applied skills that the students will eventually utilize in real-world settings. These skills may eventually be used to treat patients in hospitals, to help build bridges, or to educate children in public and private schools. In many cases, the applied skills college students need to learn have life-altering implications for persons (e.g., students, clients, patients) who depend on the appropriate application of these skills (Edwards, 2009). Thus, faculty members' scholarship of teaching and learning not only impacts their students, but also impacts countless other persons in society. Consequently, the curricula must be rigorous and evidence-based to ensure students acquire the essential and relevant knowledge, skills, and course-related experiences necessary for effective learning and performance (Edwards, 2009).Scholars suggest that college faculty frequently use reflective practice as the principal method of developing applied skills in students (Lane & Corrie, 2006; Williams, Farmer, & Manwaring, 2008). However, anecdotal reports indicate that many students attain only basic levels of competence in essential skills when teachers emphasize this approach (Williams et al., 2008). It is critical that college faculty who aspire to excellence use their pedagogical podiums as a means of ensuring students will eventually function expertly and competently in their real-world settings. A core construct of college teaching is that utilizing evidence-based approaches to teaching and learning advances expertise and competency (Edwards, in press; Bransford, Brown, & Cocking 1999). College courses that are designed utilizing teaching and learning epistemologies and that are closely aligned with learning theory likely advance students' learning and performance proficiency (see Bransford, Brown, & Cocking 1999; Ericsson, Krampe, and Tesch-Romer, 1993; Ericsson et al. \u2026","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":140974162,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"229532617","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"The current work deals with the development of contact modelling capabilities in the framework of the Carrera Unified Formulation (CUF), which is a generalised framework for the development of advanced structural theories. The current modelling approach uses 1D elements with Lagrange polynomials being used to enhance the cross-section kinematic field, leading to a layer-wise model and involving purely displacement degrees of freedom. Such a modelling approach results in 3D-like accuracy of the solution, at a significantly reduced computational effort compared to standard 3D \u2013 FEA. The current work considers normal, frictionless contact with a node-to-node discretisation, and the penalty approach is used to enforce the contact constraints. The resulting nonlinear analysis is implicitly solved using the Newton-Raphson method. The use of layer-wise modelling in CUF results in a high-fidelity solution which is capable of accurately evaluating the interlaminar stress fields, as well as accounting for transverse stretching. The development is extended to the case of dynamic contact, which uses a combination of node-to-node discretisation and Lagrange Multiplier constraints to model contact. Initial assessments consider elastic impact between two bodies and demonstrate the capability of CUF models in accurately modelling contact\/impact.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":221094734,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Sir: Lithium is widely believed to contribute to the onset or worsening of acne. This side effect causes concern for many patients who are already at risk for noncompliance due to the nature of their illness. Although the pathophysiology of the dermatologic reactions to lithium is speculative, there is convincing evidence that lithium increases migration of polymorphonuclear leukocytes into skin lesions. This direct leukoctye stimulation and the resulting degranulation produces inflammation. Lithium-related acneiform eruptions are often resistant to usual treatments. No medication for lithium-induced acne is consistently effective, and a reduction in dose or discontinuation of lithium may be required. Isotretinoin dramatically reduces scarring and cystic acne. Its use is accompanied by numerous precautions, and it is indicated only for severe forms of acne. After \"isolated reports of depression and very rarely suicide\" were associated with isotretinoin, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the drug manufacturer added an upgraded warning on the drug's packaging. The label now states that \"isotretinoin may cause depression, psychosis, and rarely suicidal ideation, suicide attempts and suicide.\" The FDA and the drug manufacturer have emphasized that there is no definitive causal relationship and that the adolescent age of the patient population and acne itself are risk factors for depression. However, physicians are being encouraged to be alert to the development of additional or new clinical psychiatric symptoms during isotretinoin use and to discontinue treatment when necessary. Because of these possible side effects, we were concerned when a patient with bipolar disorder who had cystic acne wanted to begin isotretinoin treatment.

+{"text":"Today, most biological applications raise high demands in data resources and computational power. In order to meet these demands, powerful computer and storage systems are required used in conjunction with modern software technologies that allow for seamless execution of applications on these systems. Suitable to meet these requirements are e-Science infrastructures that provide access to data and computing resources for scientific domains, such as computational biology. They are commonly used via Grid middleware systems, which in turn are accessible by users via Grid clients. Grid clients allow biological scientists to seamlessly access e-Science infrastructures, without necessarily being very well versed in computer science. Furthermore, they provide powerful graphical user interfaces that hide the low level complexity of the underlying infrastructure, so that scientists can concentrate on their scientific challenges. Since computational biology paradigms are used in a wide area of biological applications, this thesis aims to support biological applications, which typically consist of a set of small programs, such as molecular dynamic simulation tools. These programs require to be executed in a sequence, because program outputs must be piped to program inputs of a subsequent program. Such a sequence of programs must be executed one after another on a single Grid resource to avoid unnecessary transfers of large data sets between different, geographically distributed Grid resources. Since most of the available Grid workflow mechanisms execute each step of a workflow on a different resource,they do not provide a suitable solution. Thus, a specialised client software designed for sequences of programs is necessary. Apart from the support for program sequences, computational biology is data-driven and thus biological applications depend on input data of various kinds. Therefore, scientists need to seamlessly access biological data, in particular biological databases, and use conveniently chosen subsets of this data for biological applications. This data access needs to be integrated into Grid clients. This thesis describes the design and implementation of client support for inherent sequential biological applications in e-Science infrastructures. The design enhances the existing Eclipse-based UNICORE Rich Client and enables the modeling and visualisation of sequences of programs as well as the access to databases. The use of these newly developed features enables researchers to manually design sequences of programs, modify program parameters, and submit the resulting sequence job to a UNICORE Grid middleware for the sequential execution on a single computational resource. Additionally, the user can browse the content of databases and use database items as inputs for computation. The extensibility of the developed framework enables developers of biological applications to easily add new programs via a so-called 'extension point', without having to implement graphical user interfaces for new programs. The thesis also provides an evaluation use case that takes requirements from the WISDOM workflow into account and validates the applicability of the developed approach by providing a molecular dynamic simulation tool in the UNICORE Rich Client. Therefore, the application package AMBER is plugged into the new framework with little effort and a simulation can be executed by creating a sequence of AMBER programs, using database files as inputs.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":250478971,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"INTRODUCTIONIt could be said that respondents are the capital of the market research industry. Developing a relationship that supports and increases the value of that respondent both to the industry and the client should be an ongoing priority for market research professionals. As we continue to integrate technology and online research methods as standard practice it is important to shape that development in a knowledgeable way. While technology is an enabler it also in some ways diminishes control over the respondent relationship in terms of external environmental factors and engagement levels.During December 2013 Stable Research conducted a survey that explored the opinions, likes and dislikes of our panel members. Ourfindings closely correlate with lifestyle preferences that are reflected through findings that show research timing is more likely to encourage engagement over incentives. The respondent survey findings also highlight that participants enjoy focus or discussion group research over other methods and that the research topic also substantially influences the decision to participate. In contrast, respondents do not enjoy completing pre-qualifying questionnaires and never being contacted, completing surveys and failing at the end as well as irrelevant or repeated questions. As we hurtle headlong into the development of research methods that embrace technology we must also learn from the end user experience to ensure that we harness innovation in new and exciting ways.PARTICIPANTS, PREFERENCES AND PERFORMANCEMarket research firms continue to place enormous effort into developing new online products and services, and rightly so. But, is enough thought going into the opinions of respondents when it comes to their engagement and participation levels? If the industry is to continue to provide quality products and services then surely that development is inextricably linked to finding out not only how respondents engage, but their likes and dislikes associated with various survey methods.In commenting on their study into online survey respondent engagement, Downes-Le Guin, Baker, Mechling and Ruylea (2012) noted that 'the keys to greater survey engagement lie not in graphical enhancements or greater interactivity in presentation of survey questions, but rather in dealing more effectively with the fundamental components of respondent burden that survey methodologists have long recognised: survey length, topic salience, cognitive burden (i.e. poorly written or hard to answer questions) and frequency of survey requests' (p. 18). At present there is a concerted focus on the development of online research methods and tools, but what about other research methods? Do other research methods provide greater levels of satisfaction and in turn engagement and could some elements of popular research methods be more effectively integrated into online market research developments?OUR APPROACHWhile there have been numerous studies over the years that have focused on various aspects and components of the market research industry, in November 2013 Stable Research approached the Research News Advisory Group with the idea of conducting research that focused on our panel and their experience and preferences in dealing and engaging in the market research process.

Between 8 November and 14 November 2013 we conducted an online survey of 10.000 panel members and did not apply any quotas because we wanted a true reflection of our panel. Survey respondents were approached via an email asking them 'Help shape the future of Research!' Incentives to participate were offered.Stable Research received 940 responses with a large majority responding via a computer, rather than a tablet or mobile phone.

+{"text":"In the nonlinear dynamics of periodic systems, the amplitude-dependent dispersion properties of microstructured materials and mechanical metamaterials are attracting increasing interest. The paper investigates the weakly nonlinear dispersion properties of a non-dissipative one-dimensional waveguide with pantographic mass amplification. The effects of the quadratic and cubic inertia nonlinearities on the wavefrequencies and waveforms are analyzed. An asymptotic strategy based on the multiple scale method is adopted. Spectral design considerations are finally pointed out. Introduction The dispersion properties of microstructured periodic waveguides are a scientific topic of major interest in nonlinear dynamics. Particularly, the long-dating tradition of research studies concerning the propagation of nonlinear elastic waves in oscillator chains and other periodic structures [1, 2] is being catalyzed by the recent extraordinary development of microstructured materials and mechanical metamaterials [3]. Specifically, a pressing technological demand is boosting the innovation in the emerging field of architected passive media, purposely micro-designed to functionally work as frequency-dependent wave propagators (waveguides) or inhibitors (filters). In order to broaden the existing range of achievable functionalities, the periodic cell of mechanical metamaterials is often enriched with auxiliary flexible microstructures inducing relevant dynamic phenomena, like local resonances, controlled instabilities, gyroscopic couplings, inertia amplifications. The high microstructural flexibility, often accompanied by pantographic mechanisms of amplitude-multiplication and limited dissipation properties, constitutes a natural scenario for the rise of important nonlinear dynamic phenomena. Pantographic microstructure with inertia amplification A minimal physical system featured by a periodic pantographic mechanism of inertial amplification can be realized by an infinite one-dimensional non-dissipative chain of interconnected massive atoms (Figure 1). In the periodic tetra-atomic cell, two point masses (primary atoms) are elastically coupled to each other and rigidly connected to a pair of auxiliary point masses (secondary atoms). The free undamped dynamics of the periodic cell is described by a condensed two-degrees-of-freedom model with quadratic and cubic inertia nonlinearities. The linear and weakly-nonlinear dispersion properties of the periodic system are investigated, according to the Floquet-Bloch theory. In order to achieve analytical \u2013 although asymptotically approximate \u2013 results, a general perturbation strategy, based on the multiple scale method, is adopted [4, 5]. The effects of the principal mechanical parameters on the amplitude-dependent wavefrequencies and waveforms are investigated. The occurrence of internal superharmonic resonances is considered to discuss the consistency of the asymptotic solutions. Perspectives are outlined about the possibility to govern the nonlinear spectrum of stop and pass bands by employing the mass ratio and pantographic angle as tunable design parameters.

Recently, scholarship on late medieval slavery has proliferated, offering a range of detailed studies primarily based on legal records. Late medieval slaves were predominantly women, and mostly worked in domestic settings. Scholars have addressed questions such as legal regulation; the ways in which racialized thinking emerged; the economics of slavery; the implications of slavery for Christian socio\u2010religious frameworks; the extent to which slaves were integrated into the societies in which they were trafficked; and the role of slavery in geopolitics.

The Scotian Shelf is a biologically productive coastal region of the Northwestern Atlantic Ocean. This subpolar region is influenced by the outflow of the St. Lawrence Estuary system and acts as an annual source for atmospheric CO 2 . As part of the Atlantic Zone Monitoring Program, dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity, and surface CO 2 partial pressure measurements were made throughout the Scotian Shelf in 2007. A shelf-wide assessment of the spatio-temporal variability of the inorganic carbon system was made relying on observations in April and September. Between these periods, biological production results in a significant drawdown of inorganic nutrients and DIC in the surface mixed-layer, while hydrographic controls also influence seasonal changes in DIC. Net community production (NCP) over the spring and summer seasons was estimated on the basis of inorganic carbon data. We find significant spatial variability in NCP with the largest values in the Southwestern Browns Bank region and a general trend of increasing NCP with distance offshore. A bulk seasonal carbon budget suggests that along-shore and cross-shelf transport may result in the export of subsurface DIC from this region.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":55191954,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2150380225","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.5194\/BGD-8-12013-2011","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Therefore, it is beneficial for gynecologists, endocrinologists, thyroid surgeons, gastroenterologists, general surgeons, and urologists (1). The Bethesda system (TBS) was modified in 2014, which altered compared to the 2001 version. According to the new evidence in 2014, the TBS is enhanced. The evidence includes an additional understanding of human papilloma virus (HPV) biology, HPV vaccination in at least hundred countries, and the high utilization of liquid base cytology in decades. It is also noteworthy that additional screening options such as Pap test with high-risk HPV (i e, cotesting) and primary high-risk HPV test are also considered (2). The following explanations can reveal the reason to modify TBS. 1. If the number of squamous cells is less than 5000 in the liquid base cytology, it is inadequate and HPV DNA test cannot be precisely analyzed (3). 2. The general categorization section declares that the reporting system of the endometrial cell for females is altered through 40 45 years old. Since the normal endometrial cell can exfoliate, detected in Pap smear, the reporting age altered. It leads to increase of the predictive value.

Agricultural activities in this region are dominated by rain fed rice and rice based cropping system. It suffers from water stress due to long breaks of monsoon (dry spells) during the crop growing season and erratic distribution of rainfall at different crop growth stages. Supplemental irrigation salvages the crops from drought like situations. In this study, Spatial and temporal drought characteristics were investigated using the Standardized precipitation index (SPI) at 1-, 2-, and 3-month time scales to provide guidance for agriculture practices. Supplemental irrigation demand at different crop growth stages of rice crop was estimated on a farm scale and spatially interpolated in GIS environment. Maps showing SPI at different time scales were then compared and correlated with the irrigation demand maps at different crop growth stages. The results indicated good correlation for 2-month and 3-month SPI with the irrigation requirement during the crop development and mid season stages of rice crop respectively.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":122018546,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2144124246","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.14511\/JASA.2012.01030","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"URUGUAY: BIG TOBACCO OVERPLAYS TRADEMARK RIGHTS, AGAIN Philip Morris International's (PMI) six year legal action against Uruguay's pictorial health warning legislation finally came to a close in July. The International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID), an arbitration court of the World Bank, ruled that the country's anti-smoking laws did not violate a bilateral investment treaty between Uruguay and Switzerland. PMI's headquarters are located in Switzerland, and the case was initiated through its Swiss subsidiary. PMI was also ordered to pay US$7 million reimbursement to Uruguay for legal costs (although this falls significantly short of what has been incurred in fighting the action). This was an important test case for the ability of governments to legislate measures that protect public health. Although the tobacco industry has used legal action to try and block laws, and perhaps more effectively, threatened legal action to deter governments from enacting effective policies, the case against Uruguay was the first time a tobacco company had taken on a national government. It is instructive that PMI chose a country whose gross domestic product is less than PMI's annual revenue. While the legal costs for such actions run into millions of dollars, the deterrent value of dragging the country through a protracted legal stoush is likely to pay off many times over in policies delayed or shelved by other countries with much larger markets. Two measures were challenged: the restriction on selling multiple varieties of a brand, and the increase in health warning size to cover 80% of the pack, increased from 50%. PMI used arguments similar to those used to try and block Australia's plain packaging laws: that PMI was being denied rights to its intellectual property and that investors should be entitled to the right to full use of their trademarks. ISCID found that the trademark holder only has a right to exclude third parties from using the trademark; it does not have an unfettered right to use its trademarks as it pleases. Essentially, the right to use the trademarks can be limited by legislation enacted for public health purposes. Uruguay's fight received substantial international support, both financial and technical, notably from Bloomberg Philanthropies. Michael Bloomberg stated that the victory \"shows countries everywhere they can stand up to tobacco companies and win...No country should ever be intimidated by the threat of a tobacco company lawsuit, and this case will help embolden more nations to take actions that will save lives\". While the decision is a welcome win for common sense public health policy making, the fact that Philip Morris had been able to initiate the legal action is itself problematic, as a July 28 op ed in The Guardian points out (https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/globaldevelopment\/2016\/jul\/28\/who-really-wonlegal-battle-philip-morris-uruguay-cigaretteadverts). The case contradicted the terms of the bilateral investment treaty on which the action rested, as well as the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control. Fighting such cases soaks up government resources \u2013 financial, human and other \u2013 as well as deterring other countries considering similar measures. It also has the potential to encourage similar actions by other corporations and industries to fight regulations viewed as unfavourable to their interests. The arbitration process itself has also been subject to criticism that it vests excessive power in a small number of individuals to review laws and regulations made by national parliaments. In February 2016, the German Magistrates Association issued a statement rejecting the legal basis and need for a separate investment court, asserting that sufficient protections exist through national and European legal protections.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":219204313,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1136\/tobaccocontrol-2016-053366","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/tobaccocontrol.bmj.com\/content\/tobaccocontrol\/25\/5\/498.full.pdf","status":"BRONZE"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"In this paper, we consider three issues raised by the apparent inconsistency between the current research practice of using county-based markets (Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) and non-MSA counties) to investigate the validity of the theoretical underpinnings of bank merger policy and the current regulatory practice of using Federal Reserve (FR) banking markets, which often do not follow county lines, to implement that policy. Using a national sample of bank and thrift branch deposit data, we find that county-based areas cannot simply substitute for FR markets in the implementation of bank merger policy. For example, numerous potential mergers would raise competitive issues in county-based areas, but not in FR markets, and vice versa. We also conclude that, because of the relative difficulty of assembling demographic data for non-county-based areas, it is impractical to consistently use FR markets in bank merger policy research. However, we do find that, despite the inconsistencies between the two types of markets, analysis that uses county-based areas is relevant for bank merger policy that is implemented with FR markets. For example, we find that profitability regression results using variables based on FR markets are similar to those found using variables based on MSAs and non-MSA counties.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":153719820,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2007810735","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1093\/JOCLEC\/NHM001","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

GEOS DAS is very similar to global meteorological weather forecasting data assimilation systems but is used at NASA for climate research. The second, the Kalman filter, uses a more consistent algorithm to determine the forecast error covariance matrix than does GEOS DAS. For atmospheric assimilation, the gridded dynamical fields typically have more than 106 variables; therefore, the full error covariance matrix may be in excess of a teraword. For the Kalman filter this problem will require petaflop s 21 computing to achieve effective throughput for scientific research.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":17527336,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2150063189","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1175\/JTECH1636.1","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"BACKGROUND\nThe relationship between periodontitis and hypertension remains controversial. This study aimed to investigate the association of periodontitis, missing teeth, and oral hygiene behaviors with the incidence of hypertension.\n\n\nMETHODS\nA total of 104,349 participants were selected from the National Health Insurance System-Health Screening cohort. Incident hypertension and periodontitis were diagnosed based on the patients' clinical records and health examinations. A multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was performed after adjusting for socioeconomic factors, coexisting disease, and health behaviors.\n\n\nRESULTS\nThe mean age of the participants was 51.1 years (range, 40-79 years) at baseline, and 55.1% were men. A total of 52,855 incident hypertension cases were identified during the median follow-up period of 9.6 years. Among the participants, periodontitis (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.02, 95% confidence interval [95% CI]: 1.00-1.04), number of missing teeth (for \u226515 group, HR: 1.40, 95% CI: 1.29-1.52), dental scaling (HR: 0.93, 95% CI: 0.91-0.95), and tooth brushing frequency (for \u22653 group, HR: 0.85, 95% CI: 0.83-0.88) were significantly associated with incident hypertension after full adjustments for covariates. While periodontitis was significantly associated with incident hypertension (HR: 1.04, 95% CI: 1.02-1.06) in the middle-aged group (40-64 years), the effect was insignificant in the older group (\u226565 years).\n\n\nCONCLUSION\nOral inflammation could contribute to the incidence of hypertension; thus, efforts to reduce oral inflammation should be encouraged. Future intervention studies are warranted to determine whether oral health care could be beneficial in the management of hypertension. This article is protected by copyright.

+{"text":"A hybrid level set method is proposed for devising structures with embedded components, where the supporting structure as well as the positions and orientations of the components are optimized simultaneously. Two different types of level sets, namely the explicit and implicit level set are introduced to respectively represent the components and supporting structure. In this fashion, smooth geometries and clear interfaces for both the components and their underpinning structure can be obtained, which can facilitate the following analysis or manufacture of the optimized design. The positions and orientation of the components are described by a set of explicit level sets. To facilitate the solution of these multiconstraint optimization problems, a parametric mechanism is formulated by approximating the implicit level sets with the Gaussian radial basis function. Distinguished from the existing approaches, we use two different sets of design variables in a uniform optimization loop, that is, the geometric parameters for the positions and orientations of the components, and the expansion coefficients of the level set interpolation for the supporting structure. In this way, the overall design variables for the optimization problem can be greatly reduced.

+{"text":"Kinematics in two-dimensional regular and irregular swface waves is described based on the Lagrangian form of the equations of motion, with particular emphasis 011 the conditions in the so-called splash zone in irregular waves. A practical method for accurate calculation of kinematics in broad-banded irregular waves is developed based on Gerstner's wave theory, and theoretical calculations are compared with laborat01:y wave data. A review of basic hydrodynamics has also been called for, and is presented from a Lagrangian as well as Eulerian point of view. The results of the analytical study and the study of the wave data question the applicability of certain universally accepted fluid dynamical principles. The basic equations of fluid motion are presented on Eulerian and Lagrangian form, including the general Lagrangian form of the Laplacian. The relations governing vortex motion are also presented, including the theorems of Helmholtz, Kelvin and others on the rate of change of vorticity and circulation. Rotation of fluid elements is also studied from a Lagrangian point of view, showing that vorticity is not suited to express how a fluid element actually rotates about itself. It is found reason to question the common Lagrangian form of the continuity equation, namely that the Jacobian must be constant and that it in general can be set equal to 1, since this requirement results in some ambiguities and fundamental inconsistencies. Further, when considered in a Lagrangian frame of reference, we have that the theorems of Helmholtz, Kelvin and others require that a given Lagrangian point always represents the same identifiable material \"particle\", i.e. that the Jacobian is constant and equals 1. Hence, there is also reason to question the common assumption of irrotational (potential) flow in motions generated by conservative (potential) forces only, since this requirement is based on a material (Lagrangian) interpretation of the theorems on vortex motion. The weaker requirement of zero curl of the acceleration in such flows still applies, irrespective of the behaviour of the Jacobian. The Lagrangian wave theories of Gerstner and Miehe are presented, pertammg to regular waves in deep and intermediate water, respectively. These wave theories represent closed orbital particle motion, i.e. without any net transport of mass. They also contain vorticity (rotationality) at second order, and are therefore traditionally considered invalid beyond first order. The classical solution for surface waves is Stokes 2d order wave theory. The difference between this theory and the two above is Stokes drift; a second order forward transport of mass. Stokes waves and Stokes drift are here also studied from a Lagrangian point of view. It is found that Stokes waves violate continuity and cause a vorticity at second order within less than one wave period, even for waves of small amplitude. Stokes waves are therefore theoretically inconsistent in the Lagrangian frame of reference, which in turn questions the arguments rendering Gerstner's (and Miche's) theory invalid, i.e. the above-mentioned assumption of irrotational motion. The wave theories of Gerstner and Miehe are concluded to be applicable basic solutions for regular waves in the limit of negligible viscosity. Irregular waves are here modelled as a sum of linear regular Gerstner or Miehe waves, superposed in the Lagrangian frame of reference. The Lagrangian approach is better suited to show the physics of the wave motions than the Eulerian approach, and the linear Lagrangian model of irregular waves automatically includes what are known as nonlinear interactions","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":125559045,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2786266588","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"SUMMARY O1 and M2 observations from well-calibrated spring gravimeters and superconducting gravimeters from the Global Geodynamics Project (GGP) are used to test models of the Earth's body tide and 10 ocean tide models. It is shown that some of the ocean tide models give anomalous results in various parts of the world. For example, the Schwiderski ocean tide model gives discrepancies in several areas and the FES series of ocean tide models have problems in the western Pacific (China, Japan and Australia). The majority of the high-quality tidal gravity measurements in Europe are in close agreement with the Dehant, Defraigne and Wahr (DDW) elastic and inelastic body tide models. The gravimetric factors for the DDW elastic and inelastic models only differ by 0.12 per cent and the present calibration accuracy does not allow us to distinguish between these models, but does reduce the previous upper bound on inelastic gravimetric factors. The European observations give a phase lag of a few hundredths of a degree for the O1 body gravity tide, which is consistent with the Mathews inelastic body tide model. At some European and worldwide stations the gravimetric factors differ by up to 0.3 per cent from the DDW model and it is suggested that further checks on the gravimeter calibrations are required. Accurate determinations of instrumental phase lags are now easier to achieve and the imaginary (out-of-phase) component of tidal gravity can be used for accurate tests of this component of ocean tide models.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":130886532,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2147809672","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1046\/J.1365-246X.2003.01863.X","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Depletion of two nonessential amino acids, asparagine (Asn) and glutamine (Gln), occurred during a fed\u2010batch production process with a CHO cell line expressing a recombinant antibody. This depletion coincided with growth suppression and the onset of the stationary phase. Experimental withdrawal of Asn led to cell cycle arrest of cell line A in G0\/G1 phase. On a mechanistic level, withdrawal of either Asn or Gln stimulated the amino\u2010acid response (AAR) pathway, indicating that depletion of nonessential amino acids can induce AAR in this cell line. Compared to withdrawal of an essential amino acid, leucine (Leu), withdrawal of either Asn or Gln induced fewer changes in downstream effectors of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling involved in regulation of global protein synthesis. Global transcriptional analysis followed by pathway analysis revealed that the cultures experienced a down\u2010regulation of cell\u2010cycle progression, DNA replication and nucleotide biosynthesis in an E2F\u2010dependent manner, as well as a down\u2010regulation of lipid metabolism in a SREBP1\/2\u2010dependent manner as a result of individual amino\u2010acid withdrawal. Timing and magnitude of observed phenotypic and transcriptional responses to amino\u2010acid withdrawal differed between essential (Leu) and nonessential (Asn and Gln) amino acids examined. Observed responses were similar in parental (CS9 and CHOK\u20101) and two other antibody\u2010producing CHO cell lines, but the magnitude of the transcriptional response was both cell\u2010line and amino\u2010acid dependent. Overall, these results suggest that depletion of nonessential amino acids in cell culture plays a role in the onset of the stationary phase of production process and offer mechanistic insights into the observed growth attenuation phenotype.

The same dilemma also happened in Banda Aceh. Due to ineffective development control regulations and a failure to comply with the master plan to deliver several reconstruction projects in Banda Aceh created challenges and problems that remained unresolved. Hence, to minimize the impact of future disaster, the local government of Banda Aceh replaced the previous spatial plan then revised it by incorporating mitigation measures in the present spatial plan (RTRW 2006 _ 2026). Having a big interest in assessing the implementation of the present spatial plan, the researcher considers that there is a need to assess the effectiveness of the implementation of present spatial plan to minimize the impact of future natural disasters in Banda Aceh municipality. This is an exploratory research method with survey as the main research strategy. The study employed in depth interview with 11 key respondents and semi closed questionnaire for 45 respondents in three selected villages in Meuraxa to obtain primary data. The findings of the study indicated that there are nine mitigation measures proposed in Banda Aceh spatial plan such as escape route, escape building, open space, buffer zone, restriction development zone, and new development zone in order to minimize the impact of future disasters. Another finding revealed that several infrastructure plans have been implemented by the government to support disaster management activities, however not all activities had been successfully implemented like the provision of mangrove plantation as buffer zone due to lack of support from stakeholder and limited financial resources. The study revealed that one of most important management problem occurred in the implementation of spatial plan is the decision to apply living law as a legal basis in issuing the building permit rather than establishing temporary legal basis while waiting for the approval of new spatial plan. As a result, this legal decision has created a numerous spatial plan's misconducts on the ground has created numerous deviations of spatial plan in the ground and investment argument and community wishes often used by the government to justify the deviation of spatial plan. The finding also shown that the policy to legalized all building properties that had been built before disaster has become one of the indications that the government is inconsistent to implementing its spatial plan policy to achieve safer city. Finally, the absence of government's socialization and community participation during the planning process of the spatial plan have resulted a serious awareness problem. The communities in the three selected villages of Meuraxa sub-district are simply not aware of the existence of spatial plan, which is also the reason of why they are not compliance with any of the permits and regulations. Therefore, from above mentioned findings we can conclude that the proposed research hypothesis \"the implementation of present spatial plan can effectively prevent the future impact of natural disasters in Banda Aceh\" is partially accepted, meaning that the present spatial plan could not effectively prevent the future impact of natural disasters in Banda Aceh.

The addition of PS to polymers provides activity against gram-positive S. aureus for all polymer formulations, resulting in up to a 99.99999% killing efficacy in 30 min. Of note is that antimicrobial peptide mimetic polymers previously active against P. aeruginosa , but not S. aureus , gain significant bactericidal activity against S. aureus through the inclusion of PS groups, with 99.998% killing efficiency after 30 min incubation with light. In essence, a broader spectrum of antimicrobial activity is achieved using two distinct mechanisms of bactericidal activity via the incorporation of a photosensitiser monomer into an antimicrobial polymer.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":237340757,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1002\/anie.202110672","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"EXAFS and NMR are being developed with respect to study and speciation of technetium-99 in course of pyrometallurgical reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel. Based on the set of standards including technetium metal, different techentium halogenides, oxohalogenides, oxydes and pyrometallurgically formed sediments, Tc chemical forms responsible for Tc accumulation in fused salts, deposits or gas-off depending on the applied reprocessing conditions are studying by means of NMR and EXAFS. NMR spectrum of Tc metal powder obtained by FT of a free induction decay accumulated after excitation of the spin system by a sequence of high frequency pulses (0.8 \u00ecs) with a dead time of 5.4 \u00ecs and a repetition time of 1 \u00ecs, provided with Knight shift K(ppm) = 7305 1.52 x T; \u03bdQ(Tc) = 230 kHz at 293 K , CQ(Tc) = 5.52 MHz. EXAF spectra provided with excellent evidence for Tc(IV) halogenides, but need further development for lower oxidation states of technetium. Introduction : EXAFS and NMR are promising methods to enable us with speciation of radioactive nuclides. It is important to use them for Tc speciation in pyrometallurgy which is now considered as the most probable alternative approach to reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel. Pyrometallurgy of uranium and plutonium in chloride and fluoride fused salts are now intensively studied while little attention is given to long lived fission product technetium which is one of the hazardous nuclear wastes. During pyrometallurgical spent fuel reprocessing, technetium can remain in the fused salt or enter (depending on the applied temperatures, reagents and potentials) either the sedimented phase contaminating Pu enriched phase, or electrodeposited U phase (Scheme 1). Neither in sediment nor in deposit Tc phase could be detected by means of X-ray diffraction, Tc phase being finely dispersed and X-ray amorphous. It is therefor very important to develop some other methods of analyses like EXAFS and NMR applicable to Tc speciation in such samples. Our preliminary results show that under such conditions Tc can also form several oxydes, oxychlorides and chlorides of different but rather high volatility, turning on an important polluting risk allied to gas-off . The data on EXAF and NMR spectra of technetium being fragmentary and not presenting the whole of the species possible in the pyrometallurgy conditions, it is of high importance to carry synthetic work to supply a large set of technetium compounds in the closed containers which will meet the security and quality demands, radioactivity level, special requirements on sample size, thickness, sample homogeneity. Some EXAFS measurements of technetium solutions applicable in some content to pyrometallurgcal treatment of spent nuclear fuel were presented earlier by [1, 2]. It provided with EXAF data on technetium(IV) hexachloride in HCl solution. Recent studies however has given some indication on the presence of unknown Tc chloride complex [3] Tc metal and its binary alloys with vanadium have been studied earlier by Tc NMR at ambient temperature [4, 5, 6]. In these early works, the measurements were made in relatively low magnetic fields (B0 1,4 T) in the differential passing mode with field sweep, which made difficult the measurements of the anisotropic Knight shift (Kan). Moreover, the reported values of isotropic Knight shift (K) for metal Tc varied from K= 6100 ppm in [4, 5] to K= 7150 ppm and Kan= 1160 ppm in [6]. Experimental : In this work EXAFS measurements are made at Radiochemical Hutch of ROBL\/ ESRF: beamsize of 3 x 20 mm, integrated flux at sample 6 x 1011 \/s 200mA@ 20kEV, spectral range 5 35 keV; 2\/3 filling mode. Beam line control carried out with VME,SUN workstation, SPEC Hot cells are used for sample positioning. Tc NMR spectra of Tc metal powder at 120-400 K, technetium foil and some preliminary results on the K(Tc) shifts in the alloy samples were recorded on a Bruker MSL-300 radiospectrometer in 7.04T magnetic field at 67.55 MHz resonance frequency. Spectra NMR were obtained by FT of a free induction decay accumulated after excitation of the spin system by a sequence of high frequency pulses (0.8 \u00ecs) with a dead time of 5.4 \u00ecs and a repetition time of 1 \u00ecs. The Knight shifts were measured relative to the external standard 0.1M KTcO4 aqueous solution. Chemical preparations: All reagents were chemically pure grade. Technetium was purchased as NH4TcO4 from Amersham Co. and as KTcO4 from V\/O ISOTOP, RF and converted to HTcO4 by cation exchange. N(CH3)4TcO4 was prepared as discribed in [7]Tc metal was prepared by reduction of tetramethylammonium pertechnetate N(CH3)4TcO4 (of 99.9% purity) in a flow of nonexplosive gas mixture 6% H2 in Ar in a quartz tube at 1150 K. Samples were cooled, crashed and the 80-150 \u00ecm fraction was sieved of for NMR measurements. Same method was used for preparation of the dispersed metal on metal oxide supports MgO, Al2O3, modified for evaporation of NH4TcO4 at the later surface. To improve the resolution and accumulation NMR mode minimizing the electric contacts, some technetium metal samples were dispersed in dodecane : apiezon (20 : 1) mixture and then air-dried. Tc halogenides and oxydes were prepared as discribed in [8, 9]. Reference technetium compounds prepared for EXAFS study : chlorides (M2TcCl6, M = Li, Na, K, R4N); fluorides, (M2TcF6, M= H, Na, K); bromides ( M = Na, K, R4N); oxides TcO2, Tc4O5 and pertechnetates MTcO4 (M = Na, K, Cs, ); Samples of simulated pyrometallurgically reprocessed nuclear fuel (to be prepared): Technetim hexachlorides in fused salts (chlorides and fluorides); Tc sublimated fraction; Tc precipitated\/deposit fraction (all with Tc-99 as the only radionuclide) Results and discussion: The Tc-NMR spectrum of polycrystalline metallic Tc comprises 8 symmetrically arranged satellites and the central component whose shape is governed by the Knight shift anisotropy (Fig 2). The distance in KHz between the first inner satellites is the lowest frequency of a quadruple transition \u00edQ. The line width of the central component at half-maximum was ~ 22 kHz at 293 K thus having masked the effects of shift-anisotropy on the lineshape of the central transition (-1\/2 +1\/2). At 400 K the line width is reduced and shows the axially \u2013 symmetric lineshape with K K = -809 \u00b1 30 ppm. Fig. 2 presents the temperature dependence of the isotropic Knight shift for technetium metal powder, and Fig. 3 presents the temperature independence of the \u03bdQ for the same sample. This study provided with K(ppm) = 7305 1.52 x T; R = 0.99. Experimental \u03bdQ(Tc) is 230 kHz at 293 K which gives CQ( Tc) = 5.52 MHz. The latter is related to electric field gradient EFG (q) by the equation: q [cm] = 2.873*10 CQ[MHz]\/Q[barn] =52.86*10 22 cm , where Q = 0.3 barn. In general, the total EFG at a nuclear site in a noncubic metal results from the addition of two EFG parts, one being due to the lattice of the ionic core (enhanced by the Sternheimer antishielding effect) and the other being due to the non-s-character of the conducting electrons: q = (1-\u00e3)q + q . In case of Tc, the contribution arising from the ionic core lattice may be interpolated from de Wette's [10] results for \u00e1 = c\/a = 1.604. We find that (1-\u00e3)q = 27.57*10 cm (at \u00e3 = -5 [11]). This value is 52% of the experimental value obtained in the present work. This proportion is typical of the most metals in which the (1-\u00e3)q contribution is ussually lower (in magnitude) than the observed one. At the Tc-NMR spectrum of Tc metal foil of 20 \u03bcm (Fig. 5), the central component is very close to its position in Tc metal powder sample, but the 8 satellites are missed or not clear due to highly defected crystal cell caused by mutual consecutive mechanic treatments. NMR and EXAFS studies of dispersed Tc (supported on oxide matrix of MgO and Al2O3) and of Tc-Ru and Tc-Rh alloys are in progress. NMR spectrum of the sample, sedimented from K2TcCl6 in NaCl-KCl melt at 550 C under reducing conditions formed by Ar-1%H2 bubbling, gave evidence for some metal state (9884 ppm) but also some to 30% of Tc(VII) (31 ppm). Three main aspects under consideration with respect to EXAFS\/XANES studies are the following: 1) the ligand influence on the technetium EXAF spectra within the same Tc oxidation state (F, Cl, Br, I and OH, H2O being the ligands of interest with respect to pyrometallurgy as a reprocessing method), 2) the oxidation state including the lower and mixed oxidation states as well as Tc cluster formation on the technetium EXAF spectra 3) cations on the technetium EXAF spectrum within the same Tc oxidation state (Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, Me4N, Et4N, Pr4N, Bu4N could be the cations of interest , while TcO4 and TcHal6 -2 would be the anions under study (some preliminary results are given in Fig. 6 and 7). Tc K-edge k-weighted EXAFS and corresponding Fourier transform of the sample of standard Tc(IV) halogenide (Me4N)2TcBr6 is present at Fig. 6. It resulted in the following EXAFS structural parameters: Tc-Br N=5.8(2) ; R=2.51(2) \u00c5 ; \u03c3 = 0.0040 \u00c5 ; \u2206E0 = -16.9(5) eV Six halogenide atoms and the distance found correspond well to the same parameters known for similar compounds based on X-ray monocrystal analyses. Tc K-edge k-weighted EXAFS and corresponding Fourier transform of the standard Tc(2,5+) halogenide sample K3Tc2Cl8 is present in Fig. 7. The first coordination sphere of Tc in this compond includes one Tc atom and four Cl atoms. EXAFS structural parameters for K3Tc2Cl8 (in such preliminary approximation) resulted in the following values: Tc-Tc N=1.6(3) R=2.20(2) \u00c5 \u03c3=0.0069 \u00c5 \u2206E0=-1.1(9) eV Tc-Cl N=2.2(4) R=2.46(2) \u00c5 \u03c3=0.0107 \u00c5 The overestimation of Tc-Tc intervention is evidently due to neglection of the four chlorine atoms bounded to the second technetium atom. This correction of the model will be made in the nearest future. The results show excellent agreement in case of octahedral Tc(IV) bromide while for Tc cluster compound an important difference between the experimental and the fit s","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":199524214,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"This study is concerned with a concept of structural expansion of fuzzy relations. Roughly speaking, when dealing with a finite family of highly dimensional fuzzy relations Ri, i = 1,2,...c, the intent is to provide a way of expressing them as Cartesian products of some fuzzy sets and ldquoreducedrdquo fuzzy relations of lower dimensionality. More descriptively, this expansion is regarded as a vehicle to isolate fuzzy sets which are easy to interpret and retain some relational ldquoremainderrdquo which is far less interpretable yet still effective in terms of processing. The expansion process can be performed stepwise by moving toward isolation of more fuzzy sets. We formulate the problem as a certain optimization task where the fuzzy sets obtained in the expansion process minimize an underlying performance index. Two main strategies of structural expansion are discussed. We distinguish between expansion relying on the use of individual variables and collections of variables. While the concept of structural expansion is of a substantial level of generality, in this study, we assume that fuzzy relations are formed through fuzzy clustering (Fuzzy C-Means, FCM to be brief) so that prototypes of the clusters can be directly used in the optimization procedure. Further refinement of fuzzy sets obtained as the result of the expansion is carried out through some logic transformation realized by means of uninorms. The links of structural expansion with rule-based computing with the related issue of interpretability and effectiveness of processing are discussed as well.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":20853834,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2148081618","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/ICSMC.2008.4811406","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

However, it can be suppressed by early identification and with the proper choice of input turning parameters. The key issue of chatter detection is to process the acquired signals and extract the features pertaining to it. In the present work, a methodology has been proposed for exploring tool chatter features in the incipient stage during turning on lathe. Chatter signals generated during the turning of Al 6061-T6 have been acquired using a microphone. A stability lobe diagram has been plotted to access the stability regime. Further, in order to study the effect of feed rate on stability, the recorded signals have been processed using a local mean decomposition signal processing technique, followed by the selection of dominating product functions using the Fourier transform. The decomposed signals have been used to evaluate the new output parameter, that is, chatter index. Further, the Nakagami probability distribution has been used to ascertain stability region (threshold). From the experimental validation, it has been inferred that cutting combinations obtained from the Nakagami probability distribution are significant and capable of limiting chatter vibrations. The present methodology will serve as guidelines to the researchers and machinist for the identification of tool chatter in the incipient stage, explore its severity, and finally suppress it with the proper selection of input turning parameters.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":233430072,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1177\/0957456521999871","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"The image of CO2 is turning quickly because there are increasing attempts to consider it as resources for hydrocarbon based fuels rather a green house gas. Owing to the limited amount of non-renewable readily available energy sources, the paradigm of energy supply is changing from conventional energy sources to inexhaustible renewable sources such as sunlight, wind, tidal energy. But the current scientific interest is concentrated in the efficient recycling of CO2 from a waste combustion product into a solar fuel by photo reduction method that can be used within the current energy infrastructure. Solar energy as direct solar irradiations is excessively available and it is imperious to utilize it for solar fuel products. In other words, solar to chemical conversion by photo-reduction process is an effective route. Moreover, fuels from solar energy are complementary to solar to electrical energy conversion, but there is still intense research is needed before its successful commercialization. Solar fuels produced from CO2 in comparison with H2 are analyzed and it is seen that these solar-hydrocarbons fuels involves easy transportation and storage than H2 fuel. Photoreduction of CO2 is considered as one of the scientific challenges and has been carried out by different photocatalysts. But the nanostructured photocatalyst owing to their unique optical and electrical property are gaining much attention. Several nanostructured semiconductor photocatalyst such as: metal oxides, heterojunctions, porous materials, layered materials, materials with hierarchical structure, and nanobiocatalysts are acknowledged as good candidate for CO2 photo reduction. This technology not only provides an alternative way to produce the sustainable fuels, but also convert the waste CO2 into valuable chemicals, which is important for keeping our environment clean and sustainable. However, there are still several limitations present in the process of CO2 photoreduction and various strategies have been developed to overcome them. Numerous efforts are required to improve the competence of the photo reduction reaction by developing the novel and efficient photocatalyst with considerable activity, high reaction selectivity.

+{"text":"Prosecution agencies are often criticised for their performance in prosecuting sexual assault. A lack of external transparency means there is little knowledge about the specific criteria used in decisions to proceed with or discontinue prosecutions. Understanding the factors that impact on the exercise of prosecutorial discretion therefore constitutes an important step towards improving criminal justice outcomes in sexual assault prosecutions. This paper analyses prosecutorial decisions to proceed with or discontinue prosecution in a sample of adult sexual assault cases. The results indicate that case decisions are primarily based on evidentiary considerations related to the ability to secure a conviction, but they also raise questions about the handling of cases involving prior relationships. Toni Makkai Director Prosecutors employed by the state and territory offices of the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) are vested with a range of discretionary powers in relation to prosecuting indictable offences. Some of the most important decisions include whether to proceed with a prosecution and whether to discontinue prosecution by either deciding not to find a bill of indictment (no bill), or declining to present an indictment to the court (nolle prosequi). Each DPP has developed a prosecution policy to guide prosecutors in making decisions about the conduct and disposition of cases. While there are differences in the various guidelines, they all identify two essential elements to be considered in determining whether to prosecute (Refshauge 2002). First, there must be sufficient evidence to justify prosecution and provide reasonable prospects of conviction. This assessment takes into account factors such as the competence, credibility and availability of witnesses, the admissibility of evidence, and any other factors that could affect the likelihood of a conviction. Once it is established that there is sufficient evidence, the second and overriding concern is whether it is in the public Interest for the matter to proceed. The public interest is not a question of political or popular pressure; relevant factors Include the seriousness and prevalence of the offence, factors related to the victim and the defendant,1 and the need to maintain public confidence in institutions such as the courts. Few Australian studies have examined factors that predict prosecutorial decisions in adult sexual assault cases. A Queensland study (Briody 2002) and United States research show that case decisions are shaped by a complex Interplay of structural and attitudinal factors (Kerstetter 1990; Kingsnorth, Macintosh & Wentworth 1999; Spohn, Beichner & Davis-Frenzel 2002). Decisions are largely driven by legal considerations relating to the prospects of conviction, such as the seventy of the crime, the type and strength of the evidence, and the defendant's culpability. The data also show that prosecutorial decisions are open to influence by variables that are extraneous to the legal elements of the case, including sociodemographic characteristics of victims and defendants and the victim-defendant relationship. These decisions often involve legal issues that are matters of professional judgment and require a degree of subjectivity, so prosecutors can have different views on a matter and some decisions may reflect personal biases. An influential perspective on legal decision-making, derived from a study by Albonetti (1987), suggests that the relative weight given to legal and extralegal factors will vary, as prosecution decision-making is principally oriented towards eliminating uncertainty in pursuing cases that are likely to lead to a conviction. Prosecutors know that they cannot predict or control the behaviour of the defendant, defence counsel and jury, so the probability of proceeding increases in the presence of legal and extralegal factors that boost the likelihood of success and decrease uncertainty over potential outcomes (Al bon etti 1987). \u2026","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":141223645,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"35984111","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"A module for ice-based thermal energy storage (TES) systems has been developed and integrated within EnergyPlus. The TES module uses BLAST models for two direct ice systems (ice-on-coil external melt and ice harvester) and one indirect ice systems (iceon-coil internal melt). The TES systems are integrated as part of the EnergyPlus cooling plant components and are able to operate for any charge\/discharge rates provided as input data. In this paper, the structure of the TES module as implemented in the EnergyPlus is described. In addition, typical input-output variables from the added TES module are illustrated. Moreover, the operation of the TES systems is discussed for various conventional control strategies. INTRODUCTION Thermal energy storage (TES) is an electrical load management and building equipment utilization strategy, which can reduce utility electricity demand and equipment first-costs. Indeed, TES systems have been utilized as a demand-side management (DSM) strategy by several utilities to shift electricity use associated with cooling from on-peak periods to offpeak periods. For building managers and owners, TES systems are designed to avoid high utility demand and energy charges from cooling during onpeak periods associated with time-of-use (TOU) rates or real-time pricing (RTP) rates. In addition, TES systems have been promoted as a means to reduce installed chiller capacity. Typical applications of TES systems include medium-size to large office buildings, hotels, and retail stores. The main obstacle that hinders a wider acceptance of TES systems is the lack of understanding among HVAC designers and facility operators of the proper operation and control that improve the costeffectiveness of TES systems (Akbari and Sezgen, 1992 and Guven and Flynn, 1992). Several studies have proposed improved optimal control strategies for TES systems (Drees and Braun, 1996, Henze et al., 1997, and Gibson, 1997). However, almost all of these studies are based on either simplified TES models or sole analysis of the cooling plant without considering the impact of the entire building operating and design conditions such as building thermal mass and internal gains effects. In this paper, realistic models for TES systems are integrated within the state-of-the-art whole-building simulation program, EnergyPlus, to allow for future analysis of the performance of TES systems under various control strategies and design options. The TES model is based on a steady-state plant model developed by King and Potter (1998) using algorithms adapted from the building load and system thermodynamics (BLAST) energy simulation program (BLAST, 1995). The model was designed to meet building cooling load directly and was used in evaluating optimal control of ice thermal energy storage systems (Henze et al. 1997). The TES model was developed as a packaged unit system containing zone fan-coil unit, chiller, pump, and cooling tower. Unfortunately, the model cannot be used in EnergyPlus directly due to the optimal control methodology employed and the fan-coil unit system which is already contained in EnergyPlus. The new TES plant module, presented in this paper, is developed to work as an integral part of EnergyPlus plant equipment and to accommodate the entire continuum of charge\/discharge rates given as user input data. This paper describes the structure of the TES plant module as integrated within EnergyPlus. In addition, typical input-output variables from the added TES module are illustrated. Finally, the operation of the TES systems is evaluated for conventional control strategies including chiller-priority and storagepriority using a small office building. TES MODEL DESCRIPTION As in BLAST, TES systems are modeled as heat exchangers with the charging\/discharging rates as functions of the state-of-charge and the log-mean temperature difference between the ice and brine side.

The magnetic and magneto-impedance (MI) properties of the samples were investigated as a function of saccharin additive concentration in the plating bath. For all intermediate frequencies, the MI ratio increased with saccharin concentration in the plating bath up to a critical concentration and then saturates. The change in MI with saccharin concentration in electrodeposition bath was attributed to the grain size reducing action of saccharin which in turn reduces the coercivity of the film, making it soft magnetic. The origin of MI lies in the combined effect of domain wall motion and spin rotation which contributes to permeability.

It is proved that the transformation of organized household savings into investments is a process of accumulating the savings and turning them into working assets through financial market instruments on the basis of assessment of both profitability and risks. It is noted that investments are exclusively organized savings, which are being accumulated on the accounts of financial institutions, banks, insurance companies, non-state pension funds, collective investment institutions, credit unions, which are attracted through the banking and parabank systems on the basis of order of priority, payment of interest, and riskiness. The article argues that the savings-investment behavior of households has changed significantly in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. It is specified that the most attractive for households is the growth of financial assets in the form of deposits in banks of Ukraine in both national and foreign currencies, as well as the tendency to reduce long-term investment resources for terms up to two years and over two years. The conceptual principles of transformation of household savings into investments, which will allow to solve the declared tasks, are proposed, which is based on clearly defined principles and is directed towards achieving the economic and social effectiveness. Prospects for further research in this area are the substantiation of mechanisms for the formation of long-term investment resources of households and their involvement in financial assets in the context of risk assessment and systematization.

In developed areas the number of deaths has exceeded the number of births so the population growth has fallen below the replacement level. This fertility-mortality shift will alter the labor force and economy and eventually lead to a change in public expenditures to accommodate the needs of the elderly for social security and medical care.

The assessment of voluntary hand grip strength with a dynamometer is a feasible and reliable bed side method suitable for the clinical and ambulatory setting. Hand grip strength has been investigated in numerous nutrition intervention studies. Muscle function responds earlier to nutritional deprivation and restoration, and is therefore an early marker of malnutrition as well as a useful tool for monitoring nutritional intervention in adult patients. In the elderly, however, nutritional intervention is not always successful in improving hand grip strength. A systematic and standardized measurement of hand grip strength is necessary in order to obtain valid results.

+{"text":"Inflammation plays a significant role in dopaminergic neuron damage associated with the development and progression of Parkinson's disease (PD). Microglia within the central nervous system play are known to be activated during the inflammatory process and activated microglia can induce pleiotropic downstream sequellae. Activated microglia can serve a neuronal protective role, including their synthesis of glial cell line\u2010derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF). However, chronic or uncontrolled activation of microglia can lead to the production of pro\u2010inflammatory cytokines and other neurotoxic factors. A rat model of inflammation involving exposure to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) demonstrates many of the patho\u2010physiologic markers of PD. Furthermore our data has shown that there is a close temporal relationship between GDNF appearance and freely diffusible nitric oxide (NO) production. In the cardiovascular system an inflammatory response leads to a multiphasic production of NO and expression of different isoforms of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) which in turn activate protective pathways. We hypothesized that in the CNS, NO production can also regulate the activation of protective pathways. Our studies employed LPS exposure in both cell cultures and animal models. Cells and tissues were probed for the presence of GDNF and inducible, neuronal and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (iNOS, nNOS, eNOS), by fluorescence deconvolution microscopy in a time dependent manner after exposure to LPS. Both microglial cells and astrocytes in culture synthesized GDNF and nitric oxide synthase isoforms following LPS treatment. A similar time dependent production of these markers was observed in our animal model. Furthermore, we observed these differential changes were not generalized within the brain sections but occurred in specific areas.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":82863078,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1594143605","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1096\/fasebj.28.1_supplement.lb501","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

While both civilian and military aviation software systems are acquired by contract, in the military circumstance the contract has an additional regulatory and safety assurance role. \n \nMilitary contracts typically achieve the regulatory and safety assurance outcome by ensuring that relevant contract clauses reference applicable regulations and safety standards. However, industrial practice suggests several key factors that influence the effectiveness of the contracting approach to achieving safety. For military aviation software systems, these factors seem to be particularly prevalent. \n \nThe paradigm of the standard (i.e. goal-based, prescriptive or combinations thereof) is a factor as it influences the perspectives and behaviours of suppliers and acquirers with respect to evidence provision to the regulatory authority.

Standards may also have a substantial impact on achieved product safety. \n \nThis paper examines these factors and aims to assess their effect on military aviation software system contracts.

+{"text":"OBJECTIVE: To examine the validity of using MEP to measure neurophysiologic function of central motor conduction time in MS and NMO patients. BACKGROUND: Multiple sclerosis (MS) could affect conduction speed by focal demyelination along the pathway and\/or diffuse damage throughout the normal appearing white matter. Transcranial magnetic stimulation allows measurement of centrally evoked motor evoked potentials (MEPs), which provide sensitive, reproducible measures of central motor conduction time. Neuromyelitis optica (NMO) is associated with more severe focal damage, but perhaps, less diffuse brain dysfunction as compared to MS. Thus, MEPs may both provide quantitative measures of central motor conductivity, and also distinguish NMO from MS. DESIGN\/METHODS: Age and gender matched MS and NMO patients were recruited at a single center (UBC Hospital MS and NMO clinic). MEPs were assessed in a single session; MRIs were also completed and used to guide TMS application via a stereotaxic system. MEPs were analyzed for onset latency, maximal peak-to-peak amplitude, and the difference between latency and peripheral conduction time. RESULTS: To date, data has been collected and analyzed from 4 NMO and 5 MS subjects. The NMO group exhibited longer average latency (26.2 SD 5.71 versus 22.8 SD 7.02 milliseconds) and reduced MEP amplitudes (270 SD 211 versus 457 SD 404 microvolts) compared to MS. CONCLUSIONS: These preliminary data suggest that individuals with NMO demonstrate less cortical excitability (as measured by onset latency and MEP amplitudes) as compared to individuals with MS. Further, they indicate that TMS based measures may be sensitive to differences in neuroelectrophysiology between individuals with NMO and MS. Future work will consider the relationship between MEP response and MRI myelin water fraction to further support the use of MEPs as a reliable tool in the assessment of functional abnormalities in MS and NMO patients.

Amplitude of the signals was decreased and phase shift ( time lag) of the wave measured with the incident beam was increased at the points where the delamination or under film corrosion occurred. The width of the delamination or the under film corrosion from the scribes of the coating was quantitatively evaluated, and it increased with the duration of the tests. The size and the area ratio of blisters formed around the scribes were also determined by this method.

The second algorithm is the volume-by-volume advancement (WA) algorithm. This algorithm is new and employs the volumetric mesh to advance the ray through the computational domain until a legitimate intersection point is found. The algorithms are tested for two classical problems, namely an open box, and a box in a box, in both two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) geometries with various mesh sizes. Both algorithms are found to result in orders of magnitude gains in computational efficiency over direct calculations that do not employ any acceleration strategy. For three-dimensional geometries, the WA algorithm is found to be clearly superior to BSP, particularly for cases with obstructions within the computational domain. For two-dimensional geometries, the VVA algorithm is found to be superior to the BSP algorithm only when obstructions are present and are densely packed.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":123707276,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2094346773","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1115\/1.2241978","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

With a view of the lack of addressing this research topic in seafarers, this study aimed to examine the relationships between the five basic personality dimensions and seafarers' job satisfaction. The convenient sample consisted of 286 Croatian male seafarers aged between 18 and 65. Participants completed a questionnaire that included questions on sociodemographic characteristics, IPIP-50 inventory measuring five personality traits, Job Satisfaction Scale, and Seafarers' Job Satisfaction Scale. The results showed that both measures of job satisfaction correlated positively with emotional stability, conscientiousness, and extraversion. However, the general measure of job satisfaction additionally correlated positively with intellect\/imagination, while the measure of maritime job satisfaction additionally correlated positively with agreeableness. Among the five personality traits, emotional stability proved to be the highest correlate for both measures of job satisfaction.

Liquid-surface shape shows the development of smaller structures on the conical wave crests, i.e., lobes, holes, bridges, and ligaments. The gas-to-liquid density ratio, liquid Reynolds number (Re), and liquid Weber number range between 0.05 to 0.9, 320 to 5000, and 2000 to 230,000, respectively. At higher Re, lobes are longer and curve more at the crest edge with a regular formation of holes. The crest rims eventually tear, transforming the crest rims to ligaments. At higher gas densities throughout the Re range, the lobes are regular but shorter. The holes merge before the rims break to form ligaments. Consequently, liquid formations with both rim bridges and middle bridges are more common in this domain. In cases where both gas density and Re are lower, the well-ordered lobes are replaced by a more irregular corrugation with more wrinkles along the conical wave crest edge. Ligaments stretch from the lobes before holes form. The more viscous crests are thicker here explaining a delay in hole formation; still, the ligament extension is driven by pressure gradient rather than shear at the gas-liquid interface. In all cases, hole formation is correlated with hairpin and helical vortices; the perforations correlate with resulting fluid motion.

+{"text":"This thesis proposes an overall framework for the end-to-end traffic engineered path computation problem. As discussed below, the framework is subdivided into three separate aspects, all relying on G\/MPLS forwarding technology, which enables a controlled routing and the reservation of resources along traffic engineered paths. \nThe first aspect treated in this thesis consists in the definition of a novel inter-domain scheme that allows for the computation of inter-domain traffic engineered paths in a distributed manner among different administrations. The scheme relies on calculation nodes (PCEs) that can cooperatively compute inter-domain paths. The proposed solution respects both scalability and confidentiality requirements of inter-domain scenarios. Moreover, it establishes a pre-reservation procedure that enhances the effectiveness of the scheme with superior path deployment success rates. This is necessary because the time to compute an inter-domain path is usually longer, allowing fluctuations in networks resources. Accordingly, if resources are pre-reserved at computation time, it prevents their vanishing at path deployment time, and thus avoids blockage. The proposed solution is studied analytically and through rigorous simulations. The results prove that the proposed scheme allows for the optimal computation of inter-domain paths, and that the pre-reservation mechanism is beneficial when compared to the method without this mechanism. \nThe second aspect is the adaptation of the above mentioned distributed scheme into an inter-layer scheme for the consideration of joint multi-layer\/multi-domain scenarios. Such scheme is necessary because most inter-layer traffic engineered path computation problems are also part of an inter-domain setting. The proposed scheme is applied within a complete traffic engineering solution. Moreover, the use of traffic demand forecasts for traffic engineering is evaluated. The proposed ideas are analyzed first by a comparative study and then through simulations on real world networks. The results compare the proposed scheme and its variants to current inter-layer methods. The results show that the proposed scheme performs better in terms of overall utilization and path setup time. Moreover, the results concerning the use of traffic forecasts clearly show that the accuracy of these demand predictions is not a factor in their usefulness within the proposed traffic engineering scheme. \nThe third aspect is the proposal of a novel constraint based shortest path computation algorithm which, for the first time, considers the adaptation capability of GMPLS nodes. The solution is based on a mathematical program. The constraints taken into consideration are specific GMPLS technological and traffic engineering best practice constraints. Indeed, the nesting\/un-nesting capability of GMPLS nodes is considered, and the solution not only prioritized them over costly signal conversion, but also assures their correct ordering along the computed path (i.e., solving the parenthesis problem). The results obtained by solving the mathematical program validate its correctness. Then, the algorithm is simulated on real world networks for a large set of demands. The results undoubtedly prove its worth compared to existing proposals, in particular to a graph transformation method.

+{"text":"New results and conceptual design principles concerning multiple beam reflector antennas in which coupling effects are of major influence on antenna performance are presented. Special attention is paid to a certain class of feeds consisting of minimum scattering antennas (MSA's). The mutual impedance between two identical MSA's is expressed as an integral over their power patterns including complex angles [1]. For a given element spacing power patterns that minimize mutual coupling may be found. However, the patterns which lead to minimum coupling may not be optimum when the illumination of the reflector is considered. This is accounted for by constraining the efficiency for a given f\/D-ratio. As an example of circularly polarized feed antennas detailed numerical analysis of coupling between arbitrarily oriented crossed dipoles is presented. In evaluating the scattered field from crossed dipoles the feeding network is included since a crossed dipole is never an MSA. The secondary field pattern is calculated by a two-dimensional Romberg-integration of the complex current distribution on the reflector found by the physical optics approximation and contour plots of gain and polarization loss are discussed. Also the scattered near field in the focal region is calculated in order to evaluate coupling between feed elements due to the presence of the reflector.

+{"text":"Recently large-scale language-image models (e.g., text-guided diffusion models) have considerably improved the image generation capabilities to generate photorealistic images in various domains. Based on this success, current image editing methods use texts to achieve intuitive and versatile modification of images. To edit a real image using diffusion models, one must first invert the image to a noisy latent from which an edited image is sampled with a target text prompt. However, most methods lack one of the following: user-friendliness (e.g., additional masks or precise descriptions of the input image are required), generalization to larger domains, or high fidelity to the input image. In this paper, we design an accurate and quick inversion technique, Prompt Tuning Inversion, for text-driven image editing. Specifically, our proposed editing method consists of a reconstruction stage and an editing stage. In the first stage, we encode the information of the input image into a learnable conditional embedding via Prompt Tuning Inversion. In the second stage, we apply classifier-free guidance to sample the edited image, where the conditional embedding is calculated by linearly interpolating between the target embedding and the optimized one obtained in the first stage. This technique ensures a superior trade-off between editability and high fidelity to the input image of our method. For example, we can change the color of a specific object while preserving its original shape and background under the guidance of only a target text prompt. Extensive experiments on ImageNet demonstrate the superior editing performance of our method compared to the state-of-the-art baselines.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":258556958,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.48550\/arXiv.2305.04441","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":"2305.04441"},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The model is based on a set of molecular dynamics simulations of small Cu particles with the total number of atoms ranging from 256 to 17000 (corresponding to particle diameters from about 1.7 to 7.0 nm). The atomic motion in small particles is very anharmonic even at low temperatures, giving rise to asymmetric pair distribution functions with broad tails. It is shown that the standard EXAFS analysis of such particles will typically underestimate the coordination numbers substantially, and the particle size derived from EXAFS therefore in general will be too small. The size of the errors has been evaluated for some of the most common EXAFS analysis procedures suggested in the literature, and it is shown how the new model can provide more reliable particle sizes. The reliability of the new approach is confirmed by comparing simultaneous in situ EXAFS and XRD experiments of reduced Cu\/SiO 2 catalysts.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":93338309,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1974357411","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1006\/JCAT.1993.1147","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Rationale: Synchronized release of Ca2+ into the cytosol during each cardiac cycle determines cardiomyocyte contraction. Objective: We investigated synchrony of cytosolic [Ca2+] decay during diastole and the impact of cardiac remodeling. Methods and Results: Local cytosolic [Ca2+] transients (1-\u00b5m intervals) were recorded in murine, porcine, and human ventricular single cardiomyocytes. We identified intracellular regions of slow (slowCaR) and fast (fastCaR) [Ca2+] decay based on the local time constants of decay (TAUlocal). The SD of TAUlocal as a measure of dyssynchrony was not related to the amplitude or the timing of local Ca2+ release. Stimulation of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase with forskolin or istaroxime accelerated and its inhibition with cyclopiazonic acid slowed TAUlocal significantly more in slowCaR, thus altering the relationship between SD of TAUlocal and global [Ca2+] decay (TAUglobal). Na+\/Ca2+ exchanger inhibitor SEA0400 prolonged TAUlocal similarly in slowCaR and fastCaR. FastCaR were associated with increased mitochondrial density and were more sensitive to the mitochondrial Ca2+ uniporter blocker Ru360. Variation in TAUlocal was higher in pig and human cardiomyocytes and higher with increased stimulation frequency (2 Hz). TAUlocal correlated with local sarcomere relengthening. In mice with myocardial hypertrophy after transverse aortic constriction, in pigs with chronic myocardial ischemia, and in end-stage human heart failure, variation in TAUlocal was increased and related to cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and increased mitochondrial density. Conclusions: In cardiomyocytes, cytosolic [Ca2+] decay is regulated locally and related to local sarcomere relengthening. Dyssynchronous intracellular [Ca2+] decay in cardiac remodeling and end-stage heart failure suggests a novel mechanism of cellular contractile dysfunction.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":2760814,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2117300825","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1161\/CIRCRESAHA.113.300895","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"High utility mining is gaining prominence, and with the increasing set of business intelligence models, the scope of such significant practices is high. Rather than focusing only on profitability as one key utility metric, today's organizations believe in having more robust levels of the multi-objective filtering process. In this manuscript, a contemporary model of the high utility mining process is proposed, wherein the multiple averages are used for grading the recommendation of the itemsets for merchandise. The model's key advantage is its dynamic approach. The goods-related period of the average time interval can be flexible, alongside the fusion of multiple utility thresholds of diversified features chosen for itemsets recommendation. The performance analysis has been carried out by using a multi-fold cross-validation strategy. The results obtained for cross-validation show that the proposed model is outperforming the contemporary models with significant precision, specificity, sensitivity, and accuracy having values 97%, 95%, 98%, and 97% in respective order.

Cultivar identification and species delineation in boxwoods is problematic when based solely on morphological characteristics. To verify identity of 20 boxwood accessions from the trial beds of Longwood Gardens, their morphological features (leaf characters, growth habit, and landscape appearance) were recorded. These data were validated later with the analysis of AFLP markers. The AFLP markers were generated separately without any knowledge of the morphological characteristics. From the three-primer-pair combinations, a total of 212 useful markers between 75 and 500 bps fragment sizes were obtained. The average number of markers for each accession was 74 and the total markers for each accession varied from 50 to 108. The unique bands, which can be the potential diagnosis markers, were among zero to 15. Genetic distances ranged from 0.028 to 0.439. Only one UPGMA tree was generated using PAUP and the number of characters that changed unambiguously on each branch was recorded. From molecular data, the 20 accessions might derive from four or five different species and could be distinguishably classified into 12 different cultivars. The morphological data fully supported the results from molecular data.

The outsourcing of IC fabrication, beyond our expectation, raises concerns regarding intellectual property (IP) piracy and theft by rogue elements in the third-party foundries. Obfuscation techniques have been proposed to increase resistance to reverse engineering, IP recovery, IP theft, and piracy. However, prior work on obfuscation for IP protection has primarily applied to the gate level or the layout level. As a result, it can significantly impact the performance of the original design in addition to requiring redesign of standard cells. In this article, we propose a high-level synthesis and analysis (HLSA)-based obfuscation approach for IP protection. The proposed method is based on split manufacturing. Additional dummy units and MUXes can be added to further obfuscate the design. The proposed technique aligns with the standard-cell-based design methodologies and does not significantly impact the performance of the original design.

The two main features of this mentality were belief in the infallibility of the Communist Party, and belief in the role, mission and vocation of the Party and its functionaries to redeem the world, according to Andr\u00e1s Heged\u00fcs (member of the Hungarian Politburo 1951\u20136, and Prime Minister 1955\u20136 and a dissident sociologist in the 1960s).

Although the life and personality of Nagy resembled this pattern, it departed from it in a number of ways that became dramatically manifest, most of all in his final years. One explanation for this departure lies in the 'intellectual attributes' or leanings of Nagy as a leading Party functionary. This side of his character prompted him to undertake an intellectual appraisal of political problems on several occasions in his life. In the period leading up to the Hungarian revolution, it made him the leading figure in an expressly intellectual movement: the opposition among the Party intelligentsia.

+{"text":"As one of the most popular topics in polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) community, PolSAR image classification has always been an important way for PolSAR applications. Constructing representations is the most critical part of PolSAR image classification. With the maturity of deep learning technique, many data-driven PolSAR representation methods have been proposed, most of which are based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs). Despite some achievements, the bottleneck of CNN-based methods may be related to the locality induced by their inductive biases. Considering this problem, the state-of-the-art method in natural language processing, i.e., transformer, is introduced into PolSAR image classification for the first time. Specifically, a vision transformer (ViT)-based representation learning framework is proposed in this article, which covers both supervised learning and unsupervised learning. For supervised learning, we use self-attention to replace convolution, which shifts the focus from the information in local neighborhoods to the long-range interactions between each pixel. Beyond supervised learning, we introduce an improved contrastive-based strategy to implement simple unsupervised representation learning. Compared with CNN and its variants, ViT constructs more global representations by explicitly modeling the relationship between each pixel, so as to improve the classification performance. Experimental results on four widely used PolSAR image datasets indicate that the representation obtained by the ViT-based methods is better for PolSAR image classification, whether supervised (up to about 5% accuracy improvement) or unsupervised (up to about 4%). In addition, we also prove the robustness of ViT to the initial input form. These discoveries may arouse rethinking of the dominance of CNNs in PolSAR image classification.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":245430425,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1109\/TGRS.2021.3137383","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"their evolution, and their role in community life, it is useful to reverse this attitude. If a feature of language is constant from place to place and speaker to speaker, the fact will then appear to us pale and uninteresting. But the moment we hear a difference between two speakers or two speeches, our interest is quickened. Does the difference recur? Is it generalized in any context or social group? Does it have social meaning? As we turn from the study of linguistic constants to linguistic variables, we acquire more realistic methods of comparing systems and measuring differences between structures. Moreover, as we develop quantitative methods, correlations between linguistic patterns and other cultural patterns begin to emerge. The important word here is quantitative. As naive and native speakers of a particular region and generation, we all receive a great deal of qualitative information from small differences in the speech of others. The linguist's task is to construct quantitative measures by which such information becomes a precise medium for comparison and further abstract manipulation. There is an element of paradox in this emphasis on quantitative procedures. One of the undisputed achievements of structural linguistics was the analysis of various continuous dimensions into qualitative units, conceived as absolutely different from one another, bounded by sudden transitions in terms of binary choices. This model was a successful representation of a synchronic structure with only one function: that of cognitive communication. Its limitations have become increasingly apparent as linguists begin to analyze the many functions of language in the context of the speech community (Hymes 1962.). Further questions are raised by the search for the origins and dynamics of linguistic change: in several empirical studies it has been possible to outline a detailed quantitative structure which lies below the level of the quantitative functional unit.

The use of the pervasive kinetic energy, converted into electrical energy, is of special interest in this frame. The possibility to use bimorph piezoelectric cantilevers to convert ambient vibrations to electrical energy is therefore thoroughly analyzed in this work. A reliable modelling tool for optimizing the design of the miniature harvesters to be used in a broad frequency range, while maximizing the obtained powers, is hence needed. The problem complexity is induced by the necessity to simulate the dynamic response of the considered harvesting devices via a coupled electromechanical model. The recently developed comprehensive coupled analytical model based on distributed parameters is thus used as a benchmark to verify and tune suitable finite element (FE) numerical models. Modal (allowing to determine the mechanical dynamic response and the respective eigenfrequencies), harmonic (resulting in coupled frequency response functions) as well as linear and nonlinear transient FE analyses (resulting in dynamic responses under forced excitation at discrete time steps, including geometric nonlinearities) are therefore performed and complex dynamics effects are observed.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":165152763,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

There are approximately the natural number e (2.71828) to the power 180 (exp(N)) protons in the universe (Technical endnote 1). The author explored the possibility that this number is fundamental to physics. Probabilities similar to the field of information theory developed by Claude Shannon [16] and others were used as tools to develop an information based approach to energy. Considering the probability of one neutron as 1\/exp(180) a \"top-down\" model lead to information anchored fundamental energy values. A model of the neutron and proton was developed that lead to unification of the fundamental interactions (forces). A cosmology model the author describes as \"cellular cosmology\" defines space associated with each proton that geometrically combine into the universe. The relationship between large scale space and proton size space (cells) gives a small factor equal to 1\/exp(90) identified as the gravitational coupling constant. A key field energy (2.732 MeV) extracted from the proton model is associated with the radius r=7.22e-14 meters.

+{"text":"Adaptive signal control (ASC) is a well-researched topic that offers an efficient way for traffic management. It possesses a powerful ability to accommodate complex and constantly changing urban transportation networks. With the development of vehicular communication, CV-based ASC shows remarkable advantages compared with the traditional ASC system. Though the existing CV-based ASC strategies were proposed in the past few years, however, there are still issues to overcome. Most of the studies on CV-based ASC are based on the assumption of high CV penetration rate, which often result in poor performance when applied to low CV penetration environments. Besides, the lack of consideration for mixed traffic flow, which is in terms of both the vehicle types and CV penetration of different types of vehicles. To solve these issues, this paper developed an Occupancy-Based ASC strategy for a congested signalized intersection to optimize signal timing and reduce total passenger delay in the low CV penetration environment. Focused on the issues existing in the low CV penetration environment, a Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) model was proposed to estimate vehicle arrivals, and two traffic models, MicroDM and MacroDM, were developed to model the mixed traffic flow and estimate passenger delay. With the purpose of offering fair treatment to passengers approaching the intersection, we proposed an Occupancy-Based Adaptive Signal Control strategy. By transforming the complex signal control problem into a mixed-integer linear programming problem, we found the optimal solution for minimizing total passenger delay. We then evaluated the proposed Occupancy-Based ASC strategy using simulation case studies. The results show that changing traffic status could be captured and estimated with the real-time CV trajectory data as input. Applying the Occupancy-Based ASC control strategy, phases with HOVs or more vehicles will be allocated more travel time. In particular, optimization results show that the proposed Occupancy-Based ASC strategy effectively balances passenger travel demands during peak volume periods.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":248781157,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1155\/2022\/4745879","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":"CCBY","url":"https:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/jat\/2022\/4745879.pdf","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

+{"text":"Until relatively recently Western scholars, including economic historians, knew very little about the famine which struck the Soviet Union in the early postwar years. Khrushchev described it in his memoirs some 30 years ago, and Zhores Medvedev devoted several pages to the subject (relying in part on a lengthy citation from Khrushchev) in his excellent study of Soviet agriculture. Medvedev did not, however, venture any estimate of the famine's demographic impact in terms of either mortality or morbidity. It is interesting to contrast this relative dearth of historical literature with Western discussions of the famine of 1932\u201333. Even without access to archives, historians were able to describe the nature of the earlier catastrophe, analyze its causes, and venture quite informed guesses as to the number of victims. Part of the reason for the dearth of scholarship on the later famine lies with the specific difficulties of doing historical research on the years of so-called \"late Stalinism.\" This was a period of Soviet history from which the published sources, be they newspapers, specialized monographs, or academic journals, are either devoid of meaningful information or \u2013 as in the case of the trade union daily, Trud, or the factory newspapers \u2013 give such a partial description of events that, even when their accounts turn out to be accurate, you simply cannot use them to venture any kind of reliable interpretation. Access to archival sources has now made it possible to reconstruct the history of this period, so it is not surprising that historians from the former Soviet Union and Western countries have increasingly made it a focus of their research. It is also not surprising that an event as traumatic as the famine should be one of the first postwar topics to attract scholarly attention, in particular from historians in those parts of the former Soviet Union which it most immediately affected. Articles and books on the famine in Moldavia (Moldova) and Ukraine appeared during perestroika, followed soon after by collections of documents and more general studies on the famine in Russia and the USSR as a whole.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":202545811,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

It was revealed that a common position among experts regarding Russia's readiness to introduce UBI has not yet been formed: almost half of the interviewed experts spoke in favor of the feasibility of implementing transitional forms of UBI in our country, a slightly smaller group of experts believes that Russia is not ready to introduce UBI in principle. Experts associate the primary goals of the possible introduction of UBI in Russia, first of all, with the mitigation (overcoming) of the problems of poverty and socio-economic inequality, ensuring a minimum standard of living for vulnerable categories of the population, ensuring social justice (the right to life, equal opportunities).

+{"text":"Strategy Maps: Converting Intangible Assets into Tangible Outcomes Robert S. Kaplan and David P. Norton Harvard Business School Press (2004) 454 pages, hardcover, $23.95 As global competition continues to change the strategic playing field, firms are increasingly looking for an advantage. Peter Drucker suggested that knowledge and knowledge workers are important for companies' success, yet now it is thought that there are many differing types of \"intangible assets\" and resources that are important for a competitive advantage. These intangible assets are considered far more valuable than tangible assets (cash, buildings, etc.) and are important to the sustainability of successful strategies as they are inimitable. This book continues the authors' research in improving performance measurement systems so executives can develop and mobilize the intangible assets of the firm for value creation. This book is another valuable tool that should be on every executive's bookcase. The authors followed over 300 organizations for more than 12 years that were utilizing the Balance Scorecard method and explored the executive's motives and actions of applying the system to implement new strategies. Intangible market based assets such as customers, alliances, and networks are driving the current marketplace so executives are faced with the dual challenge of mobilizing human capital and informational resources to transform their organization to new strategies. The authors succinctly summarize the entire contribution of the book as: Breakthrough results = {Strategy maps} + {Balanced Scorecard} + {Strategy-Focused Organization}. In essence, firm success can be developed through the proposed detailed framework that describe measures and aligns three major intangible assets (human capital, information capital, organization capital) to strategic processes and objectives. The book utilizes a case study format that gives the executive examples of how successful firms (ex. Saatchi & Saatchi, Ingersoll-Rand, Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi, T. Rowe Price, Thornton oil, etc.) apply the various concepts detailed by the authors. This assists the reader in not only application but also in the confidence of comparing worldbest practices to the firm's critical internal processes. As no two organizations think about strategy in the same way and that the failure rate of failed strategies is about 70 percent, not only does the development of frameworks and maps assist the reader, but the case study examples were highly beneficial for applying to one's own firm. \u2026","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":168481231,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"1509779842","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

The analysis reveals that inhabitants of Sweden and the other Nordic countries have been achieving some of the best economic results in the world. This applies to the level of GDP per capita in these countries, to the capability of inhabitants to utilize their full potential, and to their life satisfaction. These countries' ability to create innovation is impressive. At the same time, Nordics have successfully reduced the scale of social inequalities and ensured relatively equal opportunities for all citizens. This is evidenced by low income inequality, low unemployment, and low poverty rate in these countries. Sweden and the other Nordic countries are superior to the US both in terms of efficiency and equity. Poland, on the other hand, lags far behind Nordics, as well as the US, in terms of efficiency, as exemplified by the relatively low GDP per capita and very low innovation in Poland. In terms of equity, however, Poland loses to Nordics but seems to win to the US.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":244801492,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.2478\/ijme-2021-0017","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.2478\/ijme-2021-0017","status":"GOLD"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Method Blood samples from MS patients suffering an acute relapse were obtained. Levels of IL 10 and IFN \u03b3 secreting cells in PBMC were determined by ELISPOT. The expressions of IL 10 and IFN \u03b3 were studied in blood MNC of the MS patients after being cultured in the presence of myelin basic protein(MBP). Results In vitro experiments employing normal PBMC showed that Dexamethsone downregulated both MBP induced IFN \u03b3 and spontaneous expression of IFN \u03b3,no effect on IL 10 secreting cells was found. Conclusion In summary,our results demonstrate a Th1 type cytokine bias in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of untreated MS patients that is reversed by Dex treatment. These findings provide a basis for immune monitoring of patients with MS and suggest that treatments downregulate IFN \u03b3 may prove to be beneficial in progressive MS.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":87348685,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2381351440","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

For this purpose, an analytical framework is developed to obtain QoS parameters such as traffic intensity, the total number of users in the network, and time to associate with the base station (BS). For a progressive environment, particularly the increase in the population of WRAN, we also analyzed channel access time and received signal strength (RSS) for CPEs. Two types of centralized trunked CR systems: 1) queued and 2) non-queued systems are investigated and this model can be helpful for the BS in scheduling the required number of channels depending upon Grade of Service (GoS) and the total number of users.

+{"text":"In this thesis, the 3d structure and kinematics of the locally and mildly inverted Lower Austria Mesozoic Basin beneath the Alpine-Carpathian fold-and-thrust belt has been described. This study has been carried out by the integrative interpretation of 2d and 3d seismic surveys, well and geophysical logs data and gravity maps. A basin-scale 3d structural model has been carried out, focused on the sub-thrust and foreland zones. The late Eocene to early Miocene Alpine\u2013Carpathian fold-and-thrust belt resulted from the subduction of the European plate beneath the Adriatic one, and the subsequent continental collision between both plates. The Alpine\u2013Carpathian foredeep and fold-and-thrust belt recorded the long-lasting involvement of the European crystalline basement in several deformation events: from late Variscan transtension, to Jurassic rifting, and Cretaceous to Paleocene shortening. In this thesis, two additional basement fault reactivation events have been defined in relation to the Alpine-Carpathian Cenozoic shortening: an extensional reactivation event related to the bending of the European plate coeval with Egerian to Karpatian (ca. 28\u201316 Ma) thin-skinned thrusting; followed by the positive inversion of the basement faults in the sub-thrust and in the foreland during Karpatian to Badenian times (ca. 16-12.5 Ma). The flexural bending of the European plate and the extensional fault reactivation was promoted by high lateral gradients of lithospheric strength in addition to the slab pull forces associated with subduction. Delamination of the European lithosphere during the final stages of collision around Karpatian times (ca. 16 Ma) promoted a large-wavelength uplift and an excessive topographic load. This topographic load was compensated by broadening the orogenic wedge through the compressive reactivation of the inherited fault array in the European plate beneath and ahead of the thin-skinned thrust system. Ultimately, collapse and deep burial of the Alpine-Carpathian tectonic wedge took place by the formation of the Pannonian basins system. To gain further insights in the deformational processes in sub-thrust and foreland settings, sandbox analogue models of brittle and brittle-viscous sand wedges have been used to simulate the inversion of segmented half-graben basins. Segmented half-graben basins -striking at 90o, 45o and 15o to the extension direction- were created first, and then shortened using different angles for the basal detachment and topographic slope. A shallow layer of viscous polymer over the half-graben basin was included in one of the models. The experiments were analysed using time-lapse photography, topography laser scans and image-based 3d voxels. The modelling results indicate a deformation sequence characterised by layer-parallel compaction, fault reactivation, thrust propagation and related folding. Fault reactivation and basin inversion was associated with the layer-parallel compaction accomplished by slip along the basal detachment, prior to and in between pulses of thrusting. The results of the sandbox analogue models reveal a fundamental control imposed by the vertical load of the tectonic wedge and its integrated strength profile in the inversion of sub-thrust basins. Small vertical loads or strong gradients of vertical loads have revealed as fundamental factors aiding in the inversion of buried, sub-thrust basins. The integrated strength profile resulted from the combination of inherited, strain-softened fault zones, as well as the presence or absence and distribution of weak, viscous horizons. The results of the sandbox models carried out indicate that the vertical load, its gradient over the sub-thrust basins and inherited, strain-softened faults are more important than the obliquity between the direction of shortening and the orientation (in terms of dip and strike) of pre-existing fault systems. As indicated by the results of sandbox analogue models, the recurrent and long-lasting frictional reactivation of the Lower Austria basement fault array may have been favoured by fault-weakening mechanisms, as well as by steep gradients of vertical loads generated by thin-skinned out-of-sequence stacking of the Rhenodanubian Flysch located south of the inverted basement fault array.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":55987339,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2766397357","ACL":null,"DOI":null,"PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

Network tomography provides an alternative to traditional means of network monitoring by inferring link-level performance characteristics from end-to-end measurements. Existing network tomography solutions, however, insist on characterizing the performance of all the links, which introduces unnecessary delays for anomaly detection due to the need of collecting all the measurements at a central location. We address this problem by developing a distributed detection scheme that integrates detection into the measurement fusion process by testing anomalies at the level of minimal identifiable link sequences (MILSs). We develop efficient methods to configure the proposed detection scheme such that its false alarm probability satisfies a given bound. Meanwhile, we provide analytical bounds on the detection probability and the detection delay. We then extend our solution to further improve the detection performance by designing the probing and fusion process. Our evaluations on real topologies verify that the proposed scheme significantly outperforms both centralized detection based on link parameters inferred by traditional network tomography and distributed detection based on raw end-to-end measurements.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":4319041,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2790149204","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1145\/3199524.3199532","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":"CLOSED"}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}

In experiments carried out in this work, the proposed systems were tested using a strain of Pseudomonas fluorescens.

Applying the mathematical model of a membrane bioreactor elaborated previously, the values of pollutant concentration were determined and positively verified in the experiments. This system of water sorbent regeneration is fully satisfying. The process of biodegradation integrated with extraction was analysed on the basis of model compounds such as benzene and toluene.

Laboratory findings must confirm elevated levels of any one of the following aPLs: lupus anticoagulant (LA), anticardiolipin antibody (aCL), or anti-\u03b22 glycoprotein-1 antibody.2 This disorder can occur in association with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) or another rheumatic or autoimmune disease, however, approximately half of patients with APS show no evidence of a definable associated disease.3 In the past, these two manifestations of the disorder have been referred to as secondary and primary APS, respectively, but the current preferred terminology is APS with or without associated rheumatic disease.2 The exact cause of APS and recurrent thrombosis is not clear, as the presence of aPLs alone is not sufficient for a diagnosis, with 1 5% of healthy individuals testing positive for aPL antibodies.4 Furthermore, the clinical manifestation of APS tends to be heterogeneous as hypercoagulability and thrombosis can affect any organ system in the body. However, involvement of cerebral large vessels is frequent and, after venous thrombosis, the most common clinical symptoms of this disease tend to be transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) and stroke.5 Other neurological manifestations can include chorea, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis-like lesions, psychiatric disorders such as depression and psychosis, migraine, and cognitive impairment.6 Cognitive abnormalities have been documented in individuals with elevated aPLs as well as APS.7,8 Between 2 5% of patients with APS develop dementia or major neurocognitive impairment, while approximately 35% display mild to moderate cognitive impairment.9,10 The most common cognitive difficulties tend to be in the domains of attention, verbal fluency, verbal learning, executive functioning, and short term memory.11,12 Imaging of the brain, when available, often indicates diffuse and focal ischemic changes, cortical infarcts, and\/or cerebral atrophy.6,13 The present case study outlines a woman with APS who developed psychiatric and motor-related issues, as well as progressive cognitive impairment, at a relatively young age.

+{"text":"The Classical Review vol. 61 no. 2 \u00a9 The Classical Association 2011; all rights reserved Mamone explains the use of pagan gods in sixteenth-century mythological spectacles in terms that do not agree with the well-established continuity of classical models. 'The Science of Mythology', the fourth section, addresses the Cartari, Giraldi and Conti mythographical manuals. F. Graziani argues that these books can no longer be considered mere handbooks for artists or as a second-hand product of sixteenth-century authors. These books were meant to be a contemporary response to and interpretation of the classical heritage. The last paper, 'The Infl uence of Manuals' by E. McGrath, is a section on its own. Her contribution deals with the main topic of most of the studies on iconography, namely how artists used myths and which were their sources. She starts by pointing out how Seznec's biased point of view regarding mythographic handbooks determined his approach to artistic creation. However, she does not consider Seznec's interpretation in itself, but rather what he did not pursue, i.e. 'to look at mythography and the manuals from the perspective of painters themselves' (p. 391). In engaging with these broad themes, this volume has a complexity of its own: as should be clear to scholars familiar with Seznec's book, 'Traditions' and 'Forms' are sections that mirror Book 1 of Seznec's \u0153uvre devoted to 'Survival of Pagan Gods', while the last two sections are related to Book 2. The organisation of this conference privileged contributions that dealt with the cross-fertilisation of those different approaches: papers that put together variables of classical iconography, classical tradition and Seznec's contribution in innovative ways, or that explored how Seznec's book and Warburgian scholars themselves embodied and criticised cultural discourses. This extraordinary volume, like the congress from which it originates, is intended as an invitation to further refl ection on these and other topics, and not as a fait accompli in a spirit of re-evaluation and exchange.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":261305077,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":"2029931833","ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1017\/S0009840X11001843","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
+{"text":"Although much research is done with a mouse model, a guinea pig model is preferentially used for cough stimulation experiments because a mouse is unable to cough. Currently, there is no literature that provides stereotaxic coordinates of the guinea pig brain. The purpose of this project was to study stereotaxic coordinates for future experiments, specifically for locating regions such as the amygdala, periaqueductal gray (PAG), and nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS). The amygdala is part of the limbic system and is involved in the recognition of our emotions and motivations. PAG is involved in homeostatic regulation of salient functions such as pain, anxiety and autonomic function. NTS is the site of integrating and processing peripheral afferents such as respiratory and cardiovascular afferents. The guinea pigs were sacrificed and their brains were harvested for histological analysis. The fixed brains were coronally and sagittally sectioned into 40 mm thick slices with a microtome for cresyl violet staining. The obex was used as a rostrocaudal zero reference point for the coronal sections and the midline was used as a dorsoventral zero reference point for sagittal sections. The results showed the stereotaxic coordinates for amygdala (coronal: +1.90 to +2.388 cm; sagittal: +0.488 cm), PAG (coronal: +1.636 to +2.004 cm; sagittal: +0.248 cm), and NTS (coronal: \u20100.008 to +0.408 cm; sagittal: +0.248 cm). Results continue to define the locations of the amygdala, PAG and NTS in guinea pigs for multi\u2010electrode array recording during swallow and cough stimuli.

+{"text":"ABSTRACT The place of theology is under threat in the modern university. It is denied a place, except insofar as it is useful in the training of religious professionals or as a phenomenon in its own right, on the grounds that relate to an unscientific scientism that both makes metaphysical assumptions it itself does not recognise as scientific or denies its own epistemological commitments. This article argues that the notion of education in 'liberal knowledge' or 'universal knowledge', the idea at the heart of John Henry Newman's The Idea of a University provides a sufficiently robust counter to these assaults on the place of theology proper in the modern university and that refusing such a place to it undermines the claim of universities to use the name at all. It is precisely the uselessness of theology that guarantees its place in the university committed to universal knowledge and universal enquiry.","meta":{"dup_signals":{},"corpusid":240234891,"openaccessinfo":{"externalids":{"MAG":null,"ACL":null,"DOI":"10.1080\/1474225X.2021.1997030","PubMedCentral":null,"ArXiv":null},"license":null,"url":null,"status":null}},"subset":"s2orc_abstract"}
