Fitting in or Sticking Together: The Prevalence and Adaptivity of Conformity, Relatedness, and Autonomy in Japan and Turkey

In this research, we compare two forms of interdependent agency. Whereas all interdependent cultures emphasize interpersonal connectedness, we suggest that the nature of this connection may differ between face and honor cultures. In a large survey, with 163 Japanese and 172 Turkish students, we tested the idea that, consistent with the concern for face, Japanese interdependence emphasizes conformity; that is, fitting in, whereas, consistent with the concern for honor, Turkish interdependence stresses relatedness; that is, sticking together. The results confirmed these hypotheses: Japanese described their agency more in terms of conformity than Turks, whereas Turks described their agency more in terms of relatedness. Moreover, relational well-being was predicted by conformity in the Japanese group and by relatedness in the Turkish group. Autonomy was also important for both samples, and it predicted personal well-being. Results suggest that a multi-dimensional approach to interdependent agency is needed to distinguish meaningfully between different interdependent cultures. The items of the three scales were presented to the participants in a random order with the following instruction: “Please think of how you generally are or act in your daily interactions with others. How true are the following statements for you? ” Responses were from 0 ( not at all true of me) to 6 ( totally true of me) . All scales were tested for measurement invariance with the help of multiple-group confirmatory factor analyses (using AMO16) and further validated by correlating the scale scores with relevant psychological constructs.

COMPARISON OF EFFICACY OF LETROZOLE AND CLOMIPHENE CITRATE IN OVULATION INDUCTION IN PAKISTANI WOMEN WITH PCOS

: Objective : To compare the effects of letrozole (5 mg) and clomiphene citrate (100 mg) for ovulation induction in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Design: Prospective randomized trial. Setting . Tertiary care hospitals of Sialkot and Gujrat,Pakistan. Patient(s): The study comprised a total of 110 infertile women with PCOS. Intervention(s): Patients were randomized to treatment with 5 mg of letrozole daily (60patients) or 100 mg of clomiphene citrate daily (50 patients) for 5 days starting on day 3 of menses. Intercourse time was decided 24 to 36 hours after hCG injection. Main Outcome Measure(s): Number of follicles, Duration of stimulation (d), endometrial thickness, and pregnancy and miscarriage rates. Result(s): In both groups mean age, parity, and duration of infertility were similar. The total numbers of follicles during stimulation were similar between the two groups (5.7 ±0.3 in the letrozole group, 4.5 ± 0.4 in the CC group). The number of follicles >14 mm and 18 mm were significantly higher in the letrozole group. The duration to reach a dominant follicle was 9.6 ± 0.4 days in the letrozole group and 10.8 ± 0.9 days in the CC group . there was no significant difference in the endometrial thickness between the two groups. The pregnancy rate per cycle was 15.5% in the letrozole group and 12% in the CC group. Twenty pregnancies in letrozole group are presently ongoing. 6 of 20 pregnancies in the CC group resulted in a miscarriage. No miscarriage was see in the letrozole group, but we encountered two ectopic pregnancies. Conclusion: In conclusion, the results of this study suggest that letrozole, are safe and equally efficacious to clomiphene citrate in terms of ovulation. Higher miscarriage were seen in CC group participants but both CC and letrazole groups had same preganancy rates among PCOS women.
Reﬂections on EchoCRT: sound guidance on QRS duration and morphology for CRT?

This editorial refers to ‘The effect of QRS duration on cardiac resynchronization therapy in patients with a narrow QRS complex: a subgroup analysis of the EchoCRT trial’ † , by J. Steffel et al . , on page 1983. Guidelines give a strong recommendation for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) for selected patients with heart failure. 1,2 These recommendations are relatively complex and could be im-proved and simpliﬁed in the light of new data. In this issue of the journal, the EchoCRT investigators show, in a prospective randomized controlled trial, that patients with a QRS duration or , 130 ms may be harmed by CRT even if they have evidence of left ventricular dyssynchrony on echocardiography and that this applies similarly to those with a QRS duration of , 120 ms and those with QRS 120–130 ms. 3 If we knew exactly how CRT worked, then making recommendations on how and in whom it should be used would be easy. However, the precise mechanism(s) by which CRT reduces morbidity and mortality are incompletely which makes targeting the right patients for intervention difﬁcult. 4,5 Like many other treatments for heart failure, a single mode of action for CRT and if any single measurement predicted beneﬁt However, where many other The
Inverse spin Hall effect in nanometer-thick yttrium iron garnet/Pt system

: High quality nanometer-thick (20 nm, 7 nm and 4 nm) epitaxial YIG films have been grown on GGG substrates using pulsed laser deposition. The Gilbert damping coefficient for the 20 nm thick films is 2.3 x 10 -4 which is the lowest value reported for sub-micrometric thick films. We demonstrate Inverse spin Hall effect (ISHE) detection of propagating spin waves using Pt. The amplitude and the lineshape of the ISHE voltage correlate well to the increase of the Gilbert damping when decreasing thickness of YIG. Spin Hall effect based loss-compensation experiments have been conducted but no change in the magnetization dynamics could be detected.
Network analysis reveals a signaling regulatory loop in pik3ca-mutated breast predicting survival outcome

Mutated genes are rarely common even in the same pathological type between cancer patients and as such, it has been very challenging to interpret genome sequencing data and difﬁcult to predict clinical outcomes. PIK3CA is one of a few genes whose mutations are relatively popular in tumors. For example, more than 46.6% of luminal-A breast cancer samples have PIK3CA mutated, whereas only 35.5% of all breast cancer samples contain PIK3CA mutations . To under-stand the function of PIK3CA mutations in luminal A breast cancer , we applied our recently-proposed Cancer Hallmark Network Framework to investigate the network motifs in the PIK3CA -mutated luminal A tumors. We found that more than 70% luminal A tumors contain a positive regulatory loop where a master regulator (PDGF-D), a second regulator (FLT1) and an output node (SHC1) work together. Importantly, we found the luminal A breast cancer patients harboring the PIK3CA mutation and this positive regulatory loop in their tumors have signiﬁcantly longer survival than those harboring PIK3CA mutation only in their tumors. These ﬁndings suggest that the underlying molecular mechanism of PIK3CA mutations in luminal A patients can participate in a positive regulatory loop, and furthermore the positive regulatory loop ( PDGF-D/FLT1/SHC1 ) has a predictive power for the survival of the PIK3CA mutated luminal A patients.
Simulation of ENSO teleconnections to precipitation extremes over the US in the high resolution version of E3SM

We evaluate the simulated teleconnection of El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) to winter season precipitation extremes over the United States in a long (98 years) 1950-control high resolution version (HR, 25 km nominal atmosphere model horizontal resolution) of US Department of Energy’s (DOE) Energy Exascale Earth SystemModel version 1 (E3SMv1). Model bias and spatial pattern of ENSO teleconnections to mean and extreme precipitation in HR overall are similar to the low-resolution model’s (LR, 110 km) historical simulation (4-member ensemble, 1925-1959). However, over the Southeast US (SE-US), HR produces stronger El Niño associated extremes, reducing upon LR’s model bias. Both LR and HR produce weaker than observed increase in storm track activity during El Niño events there. But, HR improves the ENSO associated variability of moisture transport over SE-US. During El Niño, stronger vertical velocities in HR produce stronger large-scale precipitation causing larger latent heating of the troposphere that pulls in more moisture from the Gulf of Mexico into the SE-US. This positive feedback also contributes to the stronger mean and extreme precipitation response in HR. Over the Pacific Northwest, LR’s bias of stronger than observed La Niña associated extremes is amplified in HR. Both models simulate stronger than observed moisture transport from the Pacific Ocean into the region during La Niña years. The amplified HR bias there is due to stronger orographically driven vertical updrafts that create stronger large scale precipitation, despite weaker La Niña induced storm track activity. 2 Accepted for publication in Journal of Climate. DOI 10.1175/JCLI-D-20-1011.1. Unauthenticated | Downloaded 02/03/22 02:35 PM UTC Significance statement. New high resolution Earth System Models (ESMs) solve mathematical equations of fluid flow at smaller spatial scales than prevalent ESMs (quarter times or lesser), and thus are prohibitively expensive to compute. However, they can be useful for simulating accurate details of regional climate extremes that are driven by naturally occurring climate oscillations like the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO). Here, we evaluate the simulation of ENSO-driven precipitation extremes over the US in the high resolution version of Department of Energy’s new Energy Exascale Earth System Model version 1. We find that the high resolution model improves upon its low resolution counterpart over the SoutheastUSbyproducing a better transport ofmoisture into the region from the Gulf of Mexico during El Niño. Over the US Pacific Northwest, the high resolution model simulates the atmospheric flow in more detail over the complex mountainous terrain. But, it also brings in more moisture from the Pacific Ocean just like the low resolution model. This causes it to produce precipitation extremes during La Niña years there that are stronger than that observed in the real world.
Facilitating M2 Macrophage Differentiation from Ischemia Reperfusion Injury by Myeloid PTEN Deficiency Protects Livers

Although the role of phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) in regulating cell proliferation is well established, its function in immune responses remains to be fully appreciated. In the current study, we analyzed myeloid-speciﬁc PTEN function in regulating tissue inﬂammatory immune response in a murine liver partial warm ischemia model. Myeloid-speciﬁc PTEN knockout (KO) resulted in liver protection from ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) by deviating the local innate immune response against ischemia reperfusion toward the regulatory type: expression of proinﬂammatory genes was selectively decreased and anti-inﬂammatory IL-10 was simultaneously increased in ischemia reperfusion livers of PTEN KO mice compared with those of wild-type (WT) mice. PI3K inhibitor and IL-10–neutralizing Abs, but not exogenous LPS, recreated liver IRI in these KO mice. At the cellular level, Kupffer cells and peritoneal macrophages isolated from KO mice expressed higher levels of M2 markers and produced lower TNF- a and higher IL-10 in response to TLR ligands than did their WT counterparts. They had enhanced Stat3- and Stat6-signaling pathway activation, but diminished Stat1-signaling pathway activation, in response to TLR4 stimulation. Inactivation of Kupffer cells by gadolinium chloride enhanced proinﬂammatory immune activation and increased IRI in livers of myeloid PTEN KO mice. Thus, myeloid PTEN deﬁciency protects livers from IRI by facilitating M2 macrophage differentiation. The Journal of Immunology , 2014, 192: 000–000.
Comparison of Bulk and Precipitation Polymerization Method of Synthesis Molecular Imprinted Solid Phase Extraction for Atenolol using Methacrylic Acid

Objective: Atenolol is one of beta-blocker are prohibited as doping based on World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA). The purpose of this study was to the synthesis of molecular imprinted polymer (MIP) for extraction of atenolol from the sample. Method: This research compared the two of the method, bulk and precipitation polymerization. The MIP was successfully prepared from methacrylic acid as a functional monomer, ethyleneglycoldimethacrylate as a crosslinker, benzoyl peroxide as an initiator, butanol as a porogenic solvent with atenolol as a template molecule. Result: The result showed that the bulk polymerization method produces sorbents that have good adsorption capacity and small particle compare to the precipitation polymerization. Both methods were selective for atenolol. Conclusion: Generally, the MIP solid phase extraction is an alternative method for extraction atenolol from the sample. Key words: Atenolol, Molecular Imprinted Polymer, Solid Phase Extraction.
Cautious communicators: Strategic communication of European Union commissioners in regulatory decision-making

The bureaucratic reputation literature stipulates that bureaucracies strategically aim to maximize reputational benefits and minimize reputational damages through targeted communication strategies. Departing from this assumption and using an extensive dataset on the media coverage of 54 legislative acts, we examine the conditions under which commissioners appear in the news and which communication strategies they pursue. Our analyses show that commissioners are more likely to appear in news coverage in the context of technically complex issues. We find that if a regulation is less politically conflictual, they are more likely to promote the commission's policy preferences, whereas they adopt a more passive style of communication in the face of political conflict. The findings further our understanding of regulatory policymaking by explaining bureaucratic behaviour through a communicational lens.
The Space Complexity of Consensus from Swap

Nearly thirty years ago, it was shown that Ω(√n ) read/write registers are needed to solve obstruction-free consensus among n processes. This lower bound was improved to n registers in 2018, which exactly matches the best upper bound. The Ømega (√n) space complexity lower bound actually applies to a class of objects called historyless objects, which includes read/write registers, test-and-set objects, and readable swap objects. However, every known n-process obstruction-free consensus algorithm from historyless objects uses Ω(n) objects. In this paper, we give the first Ω(n) space complexity lower bounds for two kinds of historyless objects. First, we show that any obstruction-free consensus algorithm from swap objects uses at least n-1 objects. We also present an obstruction-free consensus algorithm from n-1 swap objects, exactly matching our lower bound. To our knowledge, this is the first consensus algorithm from swap objects that do not also support the Read operation. Second, we show that any obstruction-free binary consensus algorithm from readable binary swap objects uses at least n - 2 objects. The best known obstruction-free binary consensus algorithm from readable binary swap objects uses 2n-1 objects, which shows that our lower bound is asymptotically tight. Since any historyless object can be simulated by a readable swap object with the same domain, our results imply that any obstruction-free consensus algorithm from binary historyless objects uses at least n - 2 objects.
Which AdS 3 conﬁgurations contribute to the SCFT 2 elliptic genus?

: According to the AdS / CFT duality, the superconformal index of a superconformal ﬁeld theory should have an AdS interpretation as a Euclidean functional integral with periodic boundary conditions on the fermions. Unlike the thermal case, the Euclidean continuation of the supersymmetric AdS black hole does not smoothly ﬁll in these boundary conditions, leading us to ask the title question. In the context of AdS 3 / CFT 2 , we show using supersymmetric localization that the gravitational functional integral for the elliptic genus localizes onto asymptotically AdS 3 conﬁgurations that are annihilated by a certain supercharge, in the relevant oﬀ-shell supergravity theory. For (0 , 4) superconformal ﬁeld theories, we ﬁnd such a localizing conﬁguration in the 5d N = 2 oﬀ-shell supergravity theory that is asymptotically AdS 3 × S 2 . This conﬁguration interpolates smoothly between the supersymmetric BTZ black hole in the interior and a constant gauge ﬁeld conﬁguration at the boundary, thus smoothly ﬁlling in the (++) boundary conditions for spinors on the boundary torus. It has an action equal to the supersymmetric BTZ black hole, holomorphic in the complex structure τ of the boundary torus. Our results have interesting implications for the black hole Farey tail in AdS 3 , as well as for higher dimensional AdS theories.
How prospective teachers detect potential difficulties in mathematical tasks – an eye tracking study

Abstract An important aspect of mathematics teachers’ diagnostic competences is the ability to judge the difficulty of a mathematical task. The process of judging task difficulty includes the perception and interpretation of task characteristics that are potentially challenging for students. Such judgement processes are often quick and difficult to assess. Most previous studies described these processes on the basis of teachers’ verbal reports. A more recent approach to tap into cognitive processes is eye tracking. However, there is no firm knowledge yet whether eye tracking allows for a reliable assessment of teachers’ judgements of mathematical task difficulty. The present study aims at filling this gap. We asked N = 55 prospective mathematics teachers to judge the difficulty of 20 tasks on linear functions, some of which included characteristics that are well known to be challenging for students. Participants viewed the tasks on a computer screen while their eye movements were recorded with an eye tracker. Our analyses of various eye-tracking parameters suggest that “fixation duration”, “fixation duration average” and “number of fixations” were the most reliable measures of participants’ perception and interpretation processes across a set of tasks. These measures were also correlated with participants’ judgement accuracy. Using qualitative analyses of two participants’ eye-tracking data, we illustrate when and how they processed the relevant task characteristics. In conclusion, eye tracking may be considered a suitable method for assessing how teachers detect task difficulty. We discuss implications for the use of eye tracking in further research on teachers’ diagnostic competences.
Exploring the Associations between Website Trustworthiness, Cookie Consent and Taking an Online Survey

Although HTTP cookie consent prompts are considered ordinary by internet users browsing the internet from the European Union, little is known about how people behave online concerning HTTP cookies. By focusing on an online research survey scenario, we explore the associations between website trustworthiness, cookie consent, and taking an online survey. The results of an online experiment of 2672 Facebook users suggest that website trustworthiness is associated with cookie acceptance. Additionally, the results indicate that the response rate of participants who accept cookies () is significantly higher than those who do not ().
Changes in brain structure and function in a multisport cohort of retired female and male athletes, many years after suffering a concussion.

Mild traumatic brain injury is widely regarded as a misnomer: it is globally a major cause of disability and is hypothesized as a potential causal factor in subsequent neurodegeneration. Commonly arising in sport, mounting evidence of varying degrees of cognitive impairment in retired athletes exposed to repeated concussions motivates close examination of its cumulative effects on the brain. Studying a cohort of 125 retired athletes with a mean of 11 reported concussions and 36 matched controls with none, here we evaluated whole-brain volumetric and subcortical morphological effects with Bayesian regression models and functional connectivity effects with network-based statistics. Estimates of potential cognitive impact were derived from meta-analytic functional mapping based on 13,459 imaging studies. Across the array of brain structural and functional effects identified, regions significantly lower in volume in the concussed group included, in order of greatest effect size, the middle frontal gyrus, hippocampus, supramarginal gyrus, temporal pole, and inferior frontal gyrus. Conversely, brain regions significantly larger within the athlete group included, in order of greatest effect size, the hippocampal and collateral sulcus, middle occipital gyrus, medial orbital gyrus, caudate nucleus, lateral orbital gyrus, and medial segment to the postcentral gyrus (all significant with 95% Bayesian credible interval). Subcortical morphology analysis corroborated these findings, revealing a significant, age-independent relationship between inward deformation of the hippocampus and the number of concussions sustained (corrected-p<0.0001). Functional connectivity analyses revealed a distinct brain network with significantly increased edge strength in the athlete cohort comprising 150 nodes and 400 edges (corrected-p=0.02), with the highest degree nodes including the pre-central and post-central gyri and right insula. The functional communities of the greatest eigenvector centralities corresponded to motor domains. Numerous edges of this network strengthened in athletes were significantly weakened with increasing bouts of concussion, which included disengagement of the frontal pole, superior frontal, and middle frontal gyri (p=0.04). Aligned to meta-analytic neuroimaging data, the observed changes suggest possible functional enhancement within the motor, sensory, coordination, balance, and visual processing domains in athletes, attenuated by concussive head injury with a negative impact on memory and language. That such changes are observed many years after retirement from impact sport suggests strong repetition effects and/or underpinning genetic selection factors. These findings suggest that engagement in sport may benefit the brain across numerous domains, but also highlights the potentially damaging effects of concussive head injury.
