Brain-Based evaluation of autism phenotypes using longitudinal, multimodal imaging data

Methodological developments have equipped scientists with unprecedented opportunities to characterize brain structure and functional organization and relate it to behaviour. Yet to date, no clinically relevant tools, grounded in this neurobiology, have been developed that inform clinical outcomes in psychiatric disorders. Specifically, in autism – one of the most common neurodevelopmental conditions – there is still little knowledge about the neurobiological underpinnings of different clinical outcomes with regard to core symptoms and adaptive daily living skills. While some individuals worsen, others do better over time. Like in many realms of medicine where biomarkers have revolutionized treatment, there is also an urgent need to develop such neurobiologically-grounded predictors for clinical outcomes in autism. To date, the majority of studies have analysed small, cross-sectional samples across single neuroimaging modalities with case-control comparisons to find mean group effects. However, this standard approach ignores the large sample variation in autism. The overarching objective of my MSCA Fellowship is to establish a multimodal, longitudinal characterization of the individual neurobiological signatures that are predictive of clinical outcomes in autism. I will integrate both structural and functional neuroimaging modalities for a fine-grained characterization of the neural phenotypes in autism. Using normative modelling, I will characterize at the level of the individual (rather than with group averages) how each individual with autism is different from the neurotypical pattern of such a multimodal brain characterization and how it relates to behaviour, genetic risk and clinical outcome. This novel approach has the potential to transform clinical management in autism, leading to the development of neuroscientifically-informed, targeted interventions. I will also provide the research community with novel tools that pave the way for precision medicine.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR TRANSFER AND PROCESSING OF BIOLOGICAL SAMPLES

Systems and methods are described for transfer of tissue samples from a substrate to a vessel, for subsequent processing (e.g., focused acoustic treatment) within the vessel. A transfer apparatus, having a transfer end and a handle end, may be used to collect a sample material from the substrate. When the sample material is collected from the substrate, the transfer end may be placed within a vessel for treatment of the sample material while the transfer end is also located within the vessel. In some embodiments, the transfer end may be decoupled or otherwise separated from the handle end so that only the transfer end portion of the transfer apparatus is located within the vessel during treatment.

Study of Correlation, Magnitude of Genetic Diversity and Selection Indices in Popular Rice ( Oryza sativa L.) Landraces of Bangladesh

The study was attempted with an objective to evaluate the relationship among yield and yield contributing characters, genetic diversity and selection indices of 76 rice genotypes. Number of tillers plant-1, number of effective tillers plant-1 and number of filled grain panicle-1 were positively and significantly correlated with yield plant-1 suggesting that genotypes with high partitioning efficiency gave increase in yield plant-1. Path analysis suggested that number of effective tiller plant -1, number of filled grains panicle-1 and 1000- seed weight were related to the yield plant-1 mostly through their direct effects. The genotypes were grouped into seven clusters based on Euclidean distance following Ward's method and the highest intra-cluster distance was found in cluster VI and inter-cluster distance between the cluster I and VI. Study of selection indices through discriminate functions observed that Bhute shalot possessed the highest selection score index (301.41) and rank as the best followed by Hati bajore, Jamai naru, Bazra muri and Enghi which suggests that the highest scoring genotypes might be recommended for farmer's cultivation for better yield. Among this landraces the superior genotypes may be used in future plant breeding program.

The degree of rigidity of the products costs and the payment of dividends in the Brazilian capital market

The objective of this research was to analyze the reflection of the degree of rigidity of the products costs sold (CPV) in the dividend payment policy of Brazilian non-financial companies with open capital, from 2005 to 2019. The study is based on the possibility of rigidity in the adjustments of the costs of products for companies that may not follow changes in revenues, including before a scenario of a decrease in the level of activity, compromising the result and its destinations, such as the payment of dividends. Based on the validation of the existence of rigidity in the costs behavior in the selected sample, through a regressive model, an asset intensity proxy was adopted to measure the degree of rigidity and its reflex in the payment of dividends, using the fixed effects panel data technique. As a result, evidence was obtained that CPV varies by 0.96% to increase by 1% in Net Sales Revenue, while it decreases by only 0.89% in the reverse. Whereas the increase in the degree of rigidity of costs reflects a decrease of 0.50 in dividends paid, which are also negatively impacted by financial leverage and positively by operational cash flows, according to research data. Thus, the study inferred that entities with a higher degree of rigidity in the cost structure tend to pay a lower level of dividends.

Linking Stanford Typed Dependencies to Support Text Analytics

With the daily increase of the amount of published information, research in the area of text analytics is gaining more visibility. Text processing for improving analytics is being studied from different angles. In the literature, text dependencies have been employed to perform various tasks. This includes for example the identification of semantic relations and sentiment analysis. We observe that while text dependencies can boost text analytics, managing and preserving such dependencies in text documents that spread across various corpora and contexts is a challenging task. We present in this paper our work on linking text dependencies using the Resource Description Framework (RDF) specification, following the Stanford typed dependencies representation. We contribute to the field by providing analysts the means to query, extract, and reuse text dependencies for analytical purposes. We highlight how this additional layer can be used in the context of feedback analysis by applying a selection of queries passed to a triple-store containing the generated text dependencies graphs.
New Middle Triassic tetrapods from the upper Fremouw Formation of Antarctica and their depositional setting

ABSTRACTRenewed field work in the Beardmore Glacier region of Antarctica has led to a new collection of tetrapod fossils from the upper member of the Fremouw Formation near Fremouw Peak. This locality records a sedimentary environment remarkably similar to that preserved at Gordon Valley, the only other locality known to preserve Cynognathus Assemblage Zone–equivalent taxa from Antarctica. Fossil bones are generally disarticulated and mixed with logs and reworked mudrock clasts, forming an intraformational channel-lag conglomerate. To date, very few bones of small-bodied taxa have been recovered from the upper Fremouw conglomerates, suggesting that they did not survive the reworking process. We use an apomorphy-based approach to record three previously unrecognized taxa from the upper Fremouw Formation: the dicynodont Angonisaurus, an indeterminate therocephalian therapsid, and an indeterminate crown-group archosaur. Combined with previous data, our work demonstrates that 10 distinct taxa can be recognize...
Cost-effective rehabilitation of public buildings into smart and resilient nano-grids using storage

Patrimônio cultural moderno: identificação, seleção, inventariamento e análise de procedimentos de restauro adotados em obras públicas de Brasília - Teatro Nacional de Brasília

É pertinente ressaltar que o patrimônio modernista consiste em um campo deestudos e práticas de conservação em constituição desde as últimas três décadas sobretudoe, neste sentido, estudos aprofundados sobre o tema e centrados em seu maiorconhecimento perfazem atividades necessárias tanto no âmbito do patrimônio culturalquanto no âmbito do patrimônio ambiental ou da sustentabilidade, temáticas ainda maisrecentes e crescentemente valorizadas. A pesquisa consistiu em realizar um estudohistórico, artístico e estético de caráter analítico sobre os procedimentos de intervenção derestauro ou de outras modalidades de uma das obras modernistas edificadas em Brasília(Teatro Nacional Cláudio Santoro) - procedimentos ocorridos, sobretudo, de 1987 a 2021,após os sucessivos reconhecimentos de Brasília como patrimônio cultural em várias esferas(local, nacional e mundial), tal objetivo foi alcançado através da metodologia aqui adotada,pautada em referências bibliográficas sistematizadas nesta pesquisa. Cabe ressaltar, queeste objetivo geral foi alterado pela opção de apresentar uma análise mais aprofundada deum bem cultural (Teatro Nacional) ao invés de abordagens mais genéricas de vários bensculturais como inicialmente proposto. A continuidade da pandemia contribuiu para essaescolha em razão de boa parte das instituições públicas e arquivos ainda se encontraremfechados ou em horário de funcionamento reduzido com poucos funcionários disponíveispara atendimento ao público externo, além da atual restrição de circulação pela cidade.Ainda assim, houve dificuldade de obtenção de informações sobre as intervenções doTeatro, pelo fato de serem pouco divulgados os projetos e intervenções, assim como pelofato do teatro se encontrar fechado na atualidade. A escolha do Teatro Nacional comoobjeto de pesquisa ocorreu em razão de ser um dos espaços públicos de Brasília maisreferenciados na esfera cultural, já tendo passado por vários procedimentos de intervençãoe, ainda sim, há tempos demandando novas intervenções para sua reabertura e utilização.
Innovative approach to urban security

the IcARUS project seeks to facilitate a transformation in the application and utilisation of the knowledge base through the design of urban security policies. By rethinking tools for urban security policy, IcARUS project offers a unique opportunity to draw together the best evidence from urban security research and practice over the last 30 years to implement an integrated, evidence-based and multi-stakeholder approach to prominent urban security problems. 
Through a strategically designed  process of co-production, IcARUS will integrate social and technological innovations to strengthen the strategic approach to urban security and therefore, promote a balanced vision of urban security, combining prevention, sanctions and social cohesion as mechanisms to encourage common approaches to security in the European Union. This project aims to transform the benefits to local communities in terms of urban security policies by engaging them as active co-producers of services rather than as passive recipients of public services alongside forms of multi-sectoral governance that deliver beneficial urban safety outcomes.
Annealing effects on the ferromagnetic resonance linewidths of sputter-deposited Fe100−xCox(001) thin films (x < 11)

Effects of post-growth annealing on the magnetic damping of 3d transition alloy thin films were investigated. Fe100−xCox (x < 11 at. %) thin films were epitaxially deposited on GaAs(001) substrates by rf magnetron sputtering, and some of them were annealed without exposing to atmosphere. Electrical measurement showed that in-plane resistivity was smaller in the annealed films than in the as-deposited ones, indicating that the annealing mitigates crystalline imperfections and leads to reduced electron scattering rates. Magnetic damping was evaluated by the peak widths of ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) spectra obtained by a conventional Q-band spectrometer. Comparison of as-deposited and annealed specimens showed that the damping was decreased by annealing. Combined with the electrical and FMR measurements, these observations are consistent with the theoretical predictions that crystalline imperfections strongly influence the magnetic damping, both in intrinsic and extrinsic origins.
Spatial Scenarios: New Tools for Local-Regional Territories

The capacity to transfer methodologies of spatial scenarios to the local-regional scale is a subject of major relevance. Policy makers and the main stakeholders involved in strategic planning processes need territorial forecasting instruments to detect the main critical factors and trends in order to anticipate changes in the environment. There is a need to develop and apply regional forecasting methodologies and instruments at the appropriate territorial scale, responding to functional local-regional territories. The purpose of this targeted analysis is to transfer, adapt and apply the same spatial scenarios’ methodology used within the ESPON Project 3.2 at functional territorial scale, equal or lower than NUTS3. The methodology and instruments will be applied to the case of Barcelona Provincial Council (BPC). The outcome of this project should enable policy makers to draw up regional, social and economic territorial policies and development strategies for their territories.
Neurological complications without eclampsia during pregnancy in Turkey

Some neurological diseases associated with pregnancy may develop initially during gestation, pregnancy may predispose the patient to some of these diseases or some may occur only with pregnancy. The aim of this study is to draw attention to the rare neurological diseases--other than eclampsia--that develop during pregnancy or the diseases initially described as associated with pregnancy.Our sample comprised of 16 pregnant women who developed neurological disorders that are rarely encountered or initially reported during this phase, eclampsia excluded.The proportion of cerebrovascular diseases was 56%. The others included intracranial hypotension accompanied by seizures, cerebral primitive neuroectodermal tumor, ophthalmoplegic migraine, hemiplegic migraine, spinal segmental myoclonus, acute motor axonal neuropathy and acute motor axonal neuropathy associated with ophthalmoplegia.Our results suggest that by adopting a careful and correct approach and accurate neurological diagnosis, most of these patients could be treated successfully with good prognosis of the newborns.

Validation and Clinical Use of the Japanese Classification of Colorectal Carcinomatosis: Benefit of Surgical Cytoreduction Even without Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy

This study aimed to validate an easy to use practical classification of peritoneal metastasis arising from colorectal cancer.Data from 2,134 consecutive patients who underwent resection for colorectal cancer at a single institution were reviewed. Peritoneal metastasis was classified depending on extent into three groups (P1-P3). The macroscopic radical resection rates and survival of patients with colorectal cancer complicated with peritoneal metastasis were analyzed.Of the 2,134 patients, 116 (5.4%) had peritoneal metastasis. Among them, 20 (17.2%) underwent macroscopic radical resection. Tumor location on the right side was associated with more extensive peritoneal metastasis (p = 0.010). Male gender (p = 0.0027), liver metastasis (p = 0.0021), and P3 peritoneal metastasis were independent risk factors for noncurative resection. The Cox proportional hazards model showed that gender (p = 0.031), operation period (p = 0.031), and macroscopic radical resection for colorectal cancer and peritoneal metastasis (p = 0.031) were independent prognostic factors.Being female with left colon cancer complicated with P1 or P2 peritoneal metastasis is a good indicator for macroscopic radical resection if liver metastasis is absent. The present classification helped to determine surgical indication for patients with colorectal cancer complicated with synchronous peritoneal metastasis in routine clinical practice.
Cloning, characterization and identification of polymorphism in TCR Zeta Gene in deoni cattle

The cDNA encoding, T-cell receptor zeta (TCR z; CD247) molecule of Deoni cattle (Bos indicus), was isolated, cloned and sequenced in the present study. The CD247 cDNA comprised 1078 nucleotides including a 30 nucleotide 5¹-untranslated region (UTR), 495 nucleotide single open reading frame (ORF) and 553 nucleotide 3¹-UTR. Deduced amino acid of cattle CD247 sequence was two residues shorter than the corresponding sheep sequences. However, ruminant-specific insertions and substitutions in transmembrane (TM) and intra-cytoplasmic (IC) domain were present in cattle. Immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs (ITAMs), the important motifs for TCR signalling, were totally conserved among ruminants including cattle. The 3¹ - UTR region of the cattle CD247 was highly homologous to the corresponding region in the buffalo sequence and showed lack of polymorphism after polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) analysis using Hae III and Mse I restriction enzymes in cattle population. Phylogenetically, cattle sequence was closer to buffalo sequence under the ruminant’s lineage. The conserved nature of this gene ensures TCR integrity which is vital for induction of optimal and efficient immune response.

DIRECTION-ENHANCED NAVIGATION

A system for providing positioning functionality in an apparatus without having to implement dedicated hardware. An apparatus that desires to receive directional information may receive a message from another apparatus (e.g., access point or AP). The AP may operate in various modes that, for example, may provide directional information to other apparatuses as part of a general broadcast (e.g., a wireless local area network, or WLAN, beacon signal) or in response to messages requesting directional information that are received from other apparatuses. After receiving the message from the AP, the apparatus may determine if the message comprises directional information. If the message is determined to comprise directional information, directional information from the received message may be utilized to determine apparatus location. Otherwise, the apparatus may then send a message requesting directional information to the AP, which may prompt the AP to provide directional information.
