Socioeconomic Status and

As noted in several recent reviews,'-3 socioeconomic status (SES) is inversely associated with mean blood pressure and the prevalence of hypertension. This inverse association has been observed among Blacks in the initial screening ofthe Hypertension Detection and Follow-up Program4 and in a number of smaller, geographically dispersed community studies.5-9 It is not yet clear what combination of biological, psychosocial, or environmental factors contributes to this relationship. Diet may be among the important environmental factors that influence the inverse relationship between SES and blood pressure. The objectives of this report are to describe the distnbution of dietary intakes of sodium, potassium, and calcium among Black men and women and to determine whether intake ofthese nutrients varies by SES. This report is part of the Pitt County Study,10 which was designed to investigate psychosocial and dietary influences on the development of hypertension in young and early middle-aged Black adults residing in an eastern North Carolina community. This community is part of a larger area within the southeastern United States known to have high mortality from stroke and other hypertension-related disorders.II A variety of nutritional factors, including intake of sodium, potassium, and calcium, have been associated with blood pressure level,12-'5 although intracommunity comparisons'6 are, in general, less likely to demonstrate significant effects than studies that examine diverse, multicountry experiences.17. '8 While most studies have not explicitly investigated differences in electrolyte intake by SES, variations in food consumption patterns or macronutrient intake by educational level and income have been reported. '9-23 Increased incomes are associated with greater consumption of meats, fruits and vegetables, and dairy products.20'23 This is consistent with data from the Second National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES II), which indicated that young adults below the poverty level consumed less potassium and calcium than those above the poverty level.24 Sodium intake per 1000 calories did not differ by poverty status.24 The nutrient intake-economic status relationships investigated in these national surveys23-26 and community-based populations19 were not consistently stratified by race. However, large sample surveys of nutritional status and dietary behavior in the United States have shown lower
Forward Modelling of Geophysical Electromagnetic Data on Unstructured Grids Using a Finite-volume Approach

The application of unstructured grids can improve the solution of total field electromagnetic problems as these grids allow efficient local refinement of the mesh at the locations of high field gradients. Unstructured grids also provide the flexibility required for representing arbitrary topography and sub-surface interfaces. This study investigates the generalization of the standard Yee's staggered scheme to unstructured tetrahedral-Voronoi grids using a finite-volume approach. We discretize the Helmholtz equation for the electric field in the frequency domain and solve the problem to find the projection of the total electric field along the edges of the tetrahedral elements. To compute the electric and magnetic fields at the observation points an interpolation technique is employed which uses the edge vector interpolation functions of the tetrahedral elements. An example is included which shows the computation of the total and secondary fields due to an electric source in a halfspace that contains an anomalous body. The results show good agreement with those from the literature.
In Search of Missing Arguments: A Linguistic Approach

Semantic argument structures are often incomplete in that core arguments are not locally instantiated. However, many of these implicit arguments can be linked to referents in the wider context. In this paper we explore a number of linguistically motivated strategies for identifying and resolving such null instantiations (NIs). We show that a more sophisticated model for identifying definite NIs can lead to noticeable performance gains over the state-ofthe-art for NI resolution.
Creation of a Favorable Antitumor Microenvironment by the Anti-Complement Factor H Antibody mGT103

Complement factor H (CFH) is an abundant serum protein regulating complement activation and protecting host cells from attack by the alternative pathway of complement mediated cytotoxicity. We previously identi�ed an anti-CFH autoantibody in early-stage NSCLC patients, and cloned from single peripheral B cells a lead therapeutic mAb, GT103, for cancer immunotherapy. Although GT103 has potent antitumor activities, the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. Herein we investigated GT103-mediated antitumor effects and demonstrate that murine GT103 (mGT103) enhances antitumor immunity through multiple pathways. It creates a favorable tumor microenvironment (TME) by decreasing immunosuppressive regulatory T cells and myeloid-derived suppressor cells and enhancing antigen-specic effector T cells, and has a synergistic antitumor effect with anti-PD-L1 mAb. mGT103, previously shown to activate complement in vitro and in vivo, requires complement for its activity in vivo. Furthermore, the immune landscape of tumors from early-stage patients expressing the anti-CFH autoantibody is associated with an immunologically active TME. Our results provide novel mechanistic insights into this promising human-derived immunotherapeutic agent, which is currently undergoing a phase Ib clinical trial as monotherapy and a phase II combination trial with Keytruda for advanced, refractory/relapsed NSCLC patients.

Source parameter analysis from strong motion records of the Friuli, Italy, earthquake sequence (1976-1977)

Abstract Time and frequency domain analyses are applied to strong motion data recorded in Friuli, Italy, during 1976 to 1977. An inversion procedure to estimate spectral parameters (low frequency level, corner frequency, and high frequency decay) has been applied to displacement spectra using a simple earthquake source model with a single corner frequency . The data were digitized accelerograms from ENEA-ENEL portable and permanent networks. Instrument-corrected SH waves were selected from a set of 138 three-component, hand-digitized records and 28 automatically digitized records. Thirty-eight events with stations having 8 to 32 km epicentral distance were studied . Different stress drop estimates were performed showing high values (200 to 300 bars, on the average) with seismic moments ranging from 2.8 × 10 22 to 8.0 × 10 24 dyne-cm . The observation of systematic higher values of Brune stress drop (obtained from corner frequencies) with respect to other time and frequency domain estimates of stress release, and the evidence on time series of multiple rupture episodes suggest that the observed corner frequencies are most probably related to subevent ruptures rather than the overall fault size . Seven events recorded at more than one station show a good correlation between rms, Brune, and dynamic stress drops, and a constant scaling of this parameter as a function of the seismic moment. When single station events are also considered, a slight moment dependence of these three stress drop estimates is observed differently. This may be explained by an inadequacy of the ω −2 high-frequency decay of the source model or by high-frequency attenuation due to propagation effects . The high-frequency cutoff of acceleration spectra indicates the presence of an F max in the range of 5 to 14 Hz, except for the stations where local site effects produce spectral peaks .
New seafloor map of the Puerto Rico trench helps assess earthquake and tsunami hazards

The Puerto Rico Trench, the deepest part of the Atlantic Ocean, is located where the North American (NOAM) plate is subducting under the Caribbean plate (Figure l). The trench region may pose significant seismic and tsunami hazards to Puerto Rico and the U.S.Virgin Islands, where 4 million U.S. citizens reside. Widespread damage in Puerto Rico and Hispaniola from an earthquake in 1787 was estimated to be the result of a magnitude 8 earthquake north of the islands [McCann et al., 2004]. A tsunami killed 40 people in NW Puerto Rico following a magnitude 7.3 earthquake in 1918 [Mercado and McCann, 1998]. Large landslide escarpments have been mapped on the seafloor north of Puerto Rico [Mercado et al., 2002; Schwab et al., 1991],although their ages are unknown.
Smelting of Fe‐bearing glass during hypervelocity capture in aerogel

Abstract— Hypervelocity capture of material in aerogel can expose particles to high transient temperatures. We tested some of the possible effects of capture by using a light‐gas gun to shoot particles of basalt glass into aerogel at 6.1 km s−1. Using synchrotron‐based micro‐X‐ray absorption spectroscopy (μXAS), we find that the starting material, in which the Fe was trivalent, is chemically reduced to divalent. In addition, some fragments were chemically reduced so that they contained Fe0 in a form spectroscopically consistent with a mixture of two forms of iron carbide (cohenite and haxonite). The carbon presumably originated from organic impurities in the aerogel. High‐resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) imaging shows the presence of Fe‐rich crystalline nanoparticles. A similar species has been found in actual Stardust material, suggesting that “smelting” effects occurred during capture and should be taken into account when interpreting data on Stardust samples.
An Improved Fault Diagnosis Method Based on a Genetic Algorithm by Selecting Appropriate IMFs

To solve the problem that fault diagnosis accuracy of complex equipment bearings is not high due to the complexity of its structure and the environment, a cooperative algorithm for fault diagnosis of complex equipment bearings based on ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) and support vector machine (SVM) is proposed. First, the vibration signal of the bearings is decomposed by EEMD. Second, the correlation coefficient and kurtosis value are selected as the evaluation indexes for the intrinsic mode function (IMF) components after decomposition, and the weights of the parameters are set dynamically by the mean-guided weight method. Then, the IMF components are filtered by an improved genetic algorithm to obtain the optimal IMF component combination, which can effectively eliminate redundant components and retain as much fault information as possible. Next, using the orthogonality of IMF components, the energy distribution of the selected IMF components is calculated as the Eigenvector. Finally, using the advantage of accurate classification of SVM in small samples, the fault status of complex equipment bearings can be identified. The effectiveness of the algorithm model is proven by example simulation data, and the model has certain scalability and applicability in engineering.
Geographical contribution of contemporary labour migration from Serbia and Montenegro to Denmark

The following text is a contribution to the study of contemporary geographical migration of labour force from Serbia and Montenegro in Denmark. The time frame for the study covers the period from the mid ‘60s to the dissolution of the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro in 2006. Some data relates to the period after 2006, and for which we believed to be relevant to the investigation. The focus of attention is focused on four groups of issues: the causes of migration, information about employment opportunities, and the massive flow of migration and residency in Denmark and material effects of migration. Communities of immigrants from Serbia and Montenegro, although not many (about 8,000), is interesting for researchers, because in the middle of Denmark that is economically dependent, maintained their ethnic or social identity. Denmark is a prime example of the state where the persistent and deliberate work, culture and democracy achieved legally, economically, socially stable society, appealing to other c.
A hierarchical approach for the regionalization of precipitation annual maxima in Canada

The L moments are used in the three stages of regional frequency analysis: the delineation of homogeneous regions, the identification of a regional parent distribution, and the estimation of distribution parameters. Numerical analysis is conducted on 5 min to 24 hours annual rainfall extremes from 375 precipitation gaging stations in Canada. The numerical analysis concluded that Canada could be considered as a single homogeneous region in which the L skewness and L kurtosis display no significant spatial variability. Also, on the basis of mean annual precipitation (MAP), Canada can be divided into climatologically homogeneous subregions, in which the L coefficient of variation is virtually constant. The parent distribution was identified as the general extreme value (GEV), the parameters of which depend on the MAP and storm duration. A hierarchical regional approach is proposed for fitting the identified GEV distribution, where the L skewness, L coefficient of variation, and mean are estimated on a regional, subregional, and single-site basis, respectively. Monte Carlo simulations indicate that design storms estimated by the proposed hierarchical approach are substantially more accurate than those estimated by the single-site method. The simulations also demonstrate that the proposed hierarchical approach makes the estimation of design storms at ungaged sites less dependent on the availability of precipitation data.
Subsistence continuity, change, and environmental adaptation at the site of Nugljanska, Istria, Croatia

Abstract This paper investigates changes in subsistence strategies at the upland cave site of Nugljanska (Croatia) at the end of the last ice age, during a time of rapid sea level rise and changing environment. We analysed the faunal assemblage from archaeological levels spanning the Pleistocene–Holocene transition (15,000–8000 years BP) and evaluated changes in relative abundance of species, measured species diversity, and compared the representation of terrestrial mammal and marine resources. We found a significant shift in the most abundant prey species exploited (from red deer, Cervus, to wild boar, Sus). There was some correlation between dietary diversification and periods of increased moisture availability and the spread of deciduous forest in the area. Our results suggest that there was a continuing reliance on terrestrial resources throughout time and that changes in dietary patterns were likely due to local environmental change and potentially, changing seasonal mobility strategies, at the Pleistocene–Holocene transition.
University of Birmingham TIA and minor stroke

Background: Transient ischaemic attack (TIA) and minor stroke are often considered transient events; however, many patients experience residual problems and reduced quality of life. Current follow-up healthcare focuses on stroke prevention and care for other long-term problems is not routinely provided. We aimed to explore patient and healthcare provider (HCP) experiences of residual problems post-TIA/minor stroke, the impact of TIA/minor stroke on patients ’ lives, and current follow-up care and sources of support. Methods: This qualitative study recruited participants from three TIA clinics, seven general practices and one community care trust in the West Midlands, England. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 12 TIA/minor stroke patients and 24 HCPs from primary, secondary and community care. Data was analysed using framework analysis. Results: A diverse range of residual problems were reported post-TIA/minor stroke, including psychological, cognitive and physical impairments. Consultants and general practitioners generally lacked awareness of these long-term problems; however, there was better recognition among nurses and allied HCPs. Residual problems significantly affected patients ’ lives, including return to work, social activities, and relationships with family and friends. Follow-up care was variable and medically focused. While HCPs prioritised medical investigations and stroke prevention medication, patients emphasised the importance of understanding their diagnosis, individualised support regarding stroke risk, and addressing residual problems. Conclusion: HCPs could better communicate information about TIA/minor stroke diagnosis and secondary stroke prevention using lay language, and improve their identification of and response to important residual impairments affecting patients.
Biodiversity-food trade-offs when agricultural land is spared from production

The Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework proposes to address biodiversity decline by expanding areas under conservation. Biodiversity conservation in agricultural landscapes, the world’s predominant land use, could involve sparing, or setting aside, agricultural land from production, implying biodiversity-food trade-oﬀs. Employing bird species and agricultural data, we undertake a novel empirical analysis of such trade-oﬀs on a set-aside scheme implemented in England between 1992-2007. Expanding set-aside increases bird species abundance and richness by, respectively, 1.2-2.1% and 0.7-0.9%, but has no impact on diversity (Shannon-Wiener index). These eﬀects are discontinuous, subject to thresholds in set-aside areas. A minimum 3% of agricultural land set aside is required for a positive eﬀect on biodiversity while 13% of agricultural land generates a 15-25% and 30-35% increase in abundance and richness, respectively. Estimates of short-and long-run eﬀects show that impacts are larger in the long-run. Expanding set-aside is also associated with a 10-17% decline in cereal output, with weak evidence of an attenuating land-sparing eﬀect on yields. Our results suggest that although biodiversity-food trade-oﬀs are likely in high-yield agricultural landscapes, such as those in England, the risk of a reduction in food supply could be minimised in settings where there is still scope for intensiﬁcation.
BEHAVIOR OF COMPACTED SOIL-FLY ASH-CARBIDE LIME MIXTURES

Unconfined compression tests, Brazilian tensile tests, and saturated drained triaxial compression tests with local strain measurement were carried out to evaluate the stress-strain behavior of a sandy soil improved through the addition of carbide lime and fly ash. The effects of initial and pozzolanic reactions were investigated. The addition of carbide lime to the soil-fly ash mixture caused short-term changes due to initial reactions, inducing increases in the friction angle, in the cohesive intercept, and in the average modulus. Such improvement might be of fundamental importance to allow site workability and speeding construction purposes. In addition, under the effect of initial reactions, the maximum triaxial stiffness occurred for specimens molded on the dry side of the optimum moisture content, while the maximum strength occurred at the optimum moisture content. After 28 days, pozzolanic reactions magnified brittleness and further increased triaxial peak strength and stiffness; the maximum triaxial strength and stiffness occurred on the dry side of the optimum moisture content.
