Authors: Sharma Nakul , Yalla Prasanth 
Published: August 2018

This paper endeavors toÂ Â develop newer medium of Â developing research questions by keeping in view both fields of SE and NLP in proper perspectives. An overview of the current state of art research in SE and NLP is presented. This is done by referring to the SE Body of Knowledge (SEBOK). Analogues to SEBOK, there are no separate Body of Knowledge available for the NLP/Computational Linguistics (CL). Hence whatever falls within the category of NLP/CL was considered in framing the research categories from the NLP/CL side. The paper concludes with future scope of the research presented.
RARE TRIPLE ANATOMICAL VARIATION OF THE CEREBRAL ARTERIAL CIRCLE; Rara triple variación del círculo arterial cerebral.
Authors: García Pisón Joaquín , Negrotto Matías , Garretano Alejandra , Pouy Andrés , Fernández Carolina , Olivera Eduardo 
Published: August 2018

Se reporta la rara asociación de un aneurisma de arteria trigeminal persistente lateral derecha (Tipo II de Saltzman), aplasia del segmento pre-comunicante de ambas arterias cerebrales posteriores y la presencia de arterias cerebrales posteriores fetales en forma bilateral, en una mujer de 64 años que consultó de diplopía y parálisis del nervio abducens derecho, probablemente debida a compresión del nervio en el espacio latero-celar. Se realizó con éxito la embolización endovascular con coils, sin complicaciones inmediatas. Los hallazgos de CT, RM y angiografía son presentados. Aunque cada una de estas variaciones son infrecuentes en forma individual, la combinación de las mismas no ha sido reportada en la literatura hasta nuestro conocimiento, siendo de enorme importancia en el manejo diagnóstico y terapéutico de pacientes con stroke de mecanismo embolico, así como para la planificación de procedimientos endovasculares diagnósticos y terapéuticos. We report the rare association of an aneurysm of a lateral right persistent trigeminal artery (Saltzman type II), bilateral aplasia of the pre-communicating segment of both posterior cerebral arteries and bilateral fetal posterior cerebral arteries, in a 64 years old woman who suffered from progressive diplopia and right abducens nerve palsy, most likely due to nerve compression in the latero-cellar space. Successful endovascular coils embolization of the aneurysm was performed, with no immediate complications. CT, MR and angiographic findings are presented. Although infrequent as single variations, the association of these three arterial variations has not been reported in literature to our knowledge, having special importance in the diagnostic workup and therapeutic procedures in a patient with an embolic stroke, as well as in the planification of intracranial endovascular diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.

Published: August 2018

Palynological study from the Dharmasthali Formation exposed in the northern part of Kathmandu valley revealed the composition of forest vegetation that were growing in middle Pleistocene (780 kyrs BP) in this area. In a total fifteen samples were collected from the 46 m exposed section for the palynological study. The profile can be divided into two zones on the basis of pollen assemblages. The lower part (DF-I) is dominated by Pteridophyte spores such as Lygodium, Polypodium, Cyathea and Pteris. The dominance of Pteridophytes indicate that the forest floor was moist and humid. The tree pollen consists of Abies, Pinus, Quercus, Podocarpus and Alnus. Other Gymnosperms such as Picea and Tsuga were represented by very low percentage. Poaceae and Cyperaceae show their strong presence indicating grassland and wetland conditions around the depositional basin. In the upper zone (DF-II) there is increase of Gymnosperms such as Picea and Abies. The subtropical Gymnosperm Podocarpus decreased while Tsuga completely became absent in this zone. Cold climate preferring trees such as Cedrus, Betula, Juglans and Ulmus appeared first time in this zone. The climate became even colder and drier in the upper part of the section. Near water plants such as Cyperaceae and Typha show their dominance in this zone. The plant assemblages from bottom part of the Dharmasthali Formation indicate warm climate condition which was becoming colder after 780 kyrs towards the top part of the sequence.

Application of Modified Bentonites for Arsenite (III) Removal from Drinking Water
Authors: Buzetzky Dóra , Tóth Noémi Csilla , Nagy Noémi M. , Kónya József 
Published: August 2018

Four modified bentonites (La(III), Ce(III), Y(III), Fe(III)) were prepared by ion exchange process to remove arsenite (III) ions from water. The modified bentonites were examined with X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The rare earth (REE) and Fe(III) ion content in bentonite was higher than the CEC values obtained by ammonium acetate method related to trivalent ions (2.7 x 10-4 mol g-1). The kinetics, equilibrium time, sorption isotherms and desorption experiments were examined. Lanthanum, yttrium and cerium bentonite can bind similar amount of arsenite(III) ions. Iron-bentonite cannot bind significant amounts of arsenite ions. The active sites and the solubilities of the sorption complex were determined. Arsenite (III) ions sorb in the interlayer space as REEAsO3. The solubility of the arsenite complex was two orders of magnitude smaller than that of the phosphate complex. After desorption the eluted amount of arsenite (III) was 55 % related to the sorbed amount of arsenite. The d(001) basal spacing of modified bentonites and that of after sorption and desorption was measured. After the sorption of arsenite ion on lanthanum bentonite, the d(001) basal spacing of montmorillonite was decreased and after desorption an increase in d(001) basal spacing was observed again. Modified bentonites can be used for removing arsenic ions from water.
Patient uptake and adherence to social prescribing: a qualitative study
Authors: Pescheny Julia , Randhawa Gurch , Pappas Yannis 
Published: August 2018

BackgroundSocial prescription is an initiative that aims to link patients in primary care with sources of support within the community and voluntary sector to improve their health, wellbeing, and care experience. Such programmes usually include navigators, who work with referred patients and issue onward referrals to sources of non-medical support. Most research on social prescribing (SP) has focused on outcome evaluations, resulting in a knowledge gap of factors affecting uptake and adherence. Understanding such factors enables the refinement of programmes, which has the potential to enhance uptake and adherence, reduce health inequalities, and optimise investment.AimTo explore the experiences and views of service users, involved GPs, and navigators on factors influencing uptake and adherence to SP.Design & settingQualitative interviews were conducted with stakeholders involved in an SP programme in the east of England (Luton).MethodData were collected from semi-structured face-to-face interviews with service users, navigators, and GPs. Thematic analysis was used to analyse the data.ResultsFactors affecting uptake and adherence to SP were related to patients’ trust in GPs, navigators' initial phone call, supportive navigators and service providers, free services, and perceived need and benefits. Reported barriers to uptake and adherence were fear of stigma of psychosocial problems, patient expectations, and the short-term nature of the programme.ConclusionThis study provides an insight into factors affecting patient uptake and adherence to SP programmes. More research in this field, including patients who refused to participate in SP, is needed.
On the Dynamics of Pebbles in Protoplanetary Disks with Magnetically Driven Winds
Authors: Shadmehri M. , Khajenabi F. , Pessah M. E. 
Published: August 2018

Abstract
We present an analytical model to investigate the production of pebbles and their radial transport through a protoplanetary disk (PPD) with magnetically driven winds. While most of the previous analytical studies in this context assumed that the radial turbulent coefficient is equal to the vertical dust diffusion coefficient, in the light of the results of recent numerical simulations, we relax this assumption by adopting effective parameterizations of the turbulent coefficients involved, in terms of the strength of the magnetic fields driving the wind. Theoretical studies have already pointed out that even in the absence of winds, these coefficients are not necessarily equal, though how this absence affects pebble production has not been explored. In this paper, we investigate the evolution of the pebble production line, the radial mass flux of the pebbles, and their corresponding surface density as a function of the plasma parameter at the disk midplane. Our analysis explicitly demonstrates that the presence of magnetically driven winds in a PPD leads to considerable reduction of the rate and duration of the pebble delivery. We show that when the wind is strong, the core growth in mass due to the pebble accretion is so slow that it is unlikely that a core could reach a pebble isolation mass during a PPD lifetime. When the mass of a core reaches this critical value, pebble accretion is halted due to core-driven perturbations in the gas. With decreasing wind strength, however, pebble accretion may, in a shorter time, increase the mass of a core to the pebble isolation mass.

Abstract
The Shocked POststarburst Galaxy Survey (SPOGS) aims to identify galaxies in the transitional phase between actively star-forming and quiescence with nebular lines that are excited from shocks rather than star formation processes. We explored the ultraviolet (UV) properties of objects with near-ultraviolet (NUV) and far-ultraviolet (FUV) photometry from archival GALEX data; 444 objects were detected in both bands, 365 in only the NUV, and 24 in only the FUV, for a total of 833 observed objects. We compared SPOGs to samples of star-forming galaxies (SFs), quiescent galaxies (Qs), classical E+A post-starburst galaxies, active galactic nuclei (AGN) host galaxies, and interacting galaxies. We found that SPOGs have a larger range in their FUV–NUV and NUV–r colors compared with most of the other samples, although all of our comparison samples occupied color space inside of the SPOGs region. On the basis of their UV colors, SPOGs are a heterogeneous group, possibly made up of a mixture of SFs, Qs, and/or AGN. Using Gaussian mixture models, we are able to recreate the distribution of FUV–NUV colors of SPOGs and E + A galaxies with different combinations of SFs, Qs, and AGN. We find that the UV colors of SPOGs require a >60% contribution from SFs, with either Qs or AGN representing the remaining contribution, while UV colors of E + A galaxies required a significantly lower fraction of SFs, supporting the idea that SPOGs are at an earlier point in their transition from quiescent to star-forming than E + A galaxies.
Evidence for Multiple Molecular Species in the Hot Jupiter HD 209458b

Published: August 2018

Abstract
Molecular species in planetary atmospheres provide key insights into their atmospheric processes and formation conditions. In recent years, high-resolution Doppler spectroscopy in the near-infrared has allowed detections of H2O and CO in the atmospheres of several hot Jupiters. This method involves monitoring the spectral lines of the planetary thermal emission Doppler-shifted due to the radial velocity of the planet over its orbit. However, aside from CO and H2O, which are the primary oxygen- and carbon-bearing species in hot H2-rich atmospheres, little else is known about the molecular compositions of hot Jupiters. Several recent studies have suggested the importance and detectability of nitrogen-bearing species in such atmospheres. In this Letter, we confirm potential detections of CO and H2O in the hot Jupiter HD 209458b using high-resolution spectroscopy. We also report a cross-correlation peak with a signal-to-noise ratio of 4.7 from a search for HCN. The results are obtained using high-resolution phase-resolved spectroscopy with the Very Large Telescope CRyogenic high-resolution InfraRed Echelle Spectrograph (VLT CRIRES) and standard analysis methods reported in the literature. A more robust treatment of telluric contamination and other residuals would improve confidence and enable unambiguous molecular detections. The presence of HCN could provide constraints on the C/O ratio of HD 209458b and its potential origins.

Published: August 2018

Background Both traditional and HIV-specific risk factors contribute to greater incidence of cardiovascular disease in persons living with HIV (PLWH). Using state-of-the-art, high-resolution magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of the common carotid arteries, this study aimed to evaluate the relationship between carotid vessel wall thickness (c-VWT) and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk score in PLWH. Methods Cross-sectional determinations of c-VWT using MR imaging in virally suppressed PLWH without known cardiovascular disease ( n=32) and matched controls ( n=13) were completed. Clinical data, including ASCVD risk and c-VWT, were compared between groups and regression analyses performed to identify predictors of c-VWT. Results PLWH had significantly higher c-VWT (1.15 ±0.11 mm versus 1.08 ±0.08 mm; P=0.02) as well as higher diastolic blood pressure compared to controls, but exhibited no differences in 10-year ASCVD risk score, systolic blood pressure or smoking. Ten-year ASCVD risk score (r=0.53, P-value =0.0002), age (r=0.30, P-value <0.05), triglycerides (r=0.33, P-value =0.03) and waist circumference (r=0.36, P-value =0.02) were significantly associated with increased c-VWT. Among PLWH, c-VWT did not differ by protease inhibitor use. In a multivariate regression analysis, ASCVD risk score was the only variable significantly associated with c-VWT ( P-value =0.02), whereas, HIV status was not. Conclusions In this cross-sectional study MR imaging demonstrated that c-VWT, a known marker for CVD risk, was increased in PLWH relative to controls, and that 10-year ASCVD risk was closely related to c-VWT, independent of HIV infection. Our data suggest that traditional cardiovascular disease risk factors in PLWH are adequately captured in the ASCVD risk score which was closely associated with subclinical carotid disease.
Computational Models for Optimization of the Intrastromal Corneal Ring Choice in Patients With Keratoconus Using Corneal Tomography Data
Authors: Lyra Daniela , Ribeiro Guilherme , Torquetti Leonardo , Ferrara Paulo , Machado Aydano , Lyra João Marcelo 
Published: August 2018

PURPOSE:
To evaluate the predictability of asphericity and average keratometry in patients with keratoconus after implantation of intrastromal corneal ring segments (ICRS) using artificial intelligence.

METHODS:

This study included 209 eyes of 160 patients with keratoconus (grades I, II, and III) who had ICRS implanted. The 160 arc length Ferrara ICRS was implanted in all patients. ICRS thickness varied from 150 to 250
μ
m. Pentacam (Oculus Optikgeräte, Wetzlar, Germany) corneal tomography parameters, clinical data, and ICRS data formed the basis of the 39 studied parameters. Linear regression was used to create the models.

RESULTS:
The best mean absolute error value found was 0.19 for asphericity and was 1.18 for mean keratometry. Comparing the mean absolute error values of the nomogram with the average absolute error of the algorithm, there was an improvement of 0.11 for asphericity and 0.09 for mean keratometry in relation to the current nomogram.

CONCLUSIONS:
The current study showed that the use of computational models could lead to more accurate results and contribute to better surgical decision-making to improve the clinical outcomes in patients with keratoconus implanted with ICRS.

Factorization Tests and Algorithms Arising from Counting Modular Forms and Automorphic Representations
Authors: Gu Miao , Martin Greg 
Published: August 2018

AbstractA theorem of Gekeler compares the number of non-isomorphic automorphic representations associated with the space of cusp forms of weight $k$ on $\unicode[STIX]{x0393}_{0}(N)$ to a simpler function of $k$ and $N$, showing that the two are equal whenever $N$ is squarefree. We prove the converse of this theorem (with one small exception), thus providing a characterization of squarefree integers. We also establish a similar characterization of prime numbers in terms of the number of Hecke newforms of weight $k$ on $\unicode[STIX]{x0393}_{0}(N)$.It follows that a hypothetical fast algorithm for computing the number of such automorphic representations for even a single weight $k$ would yield a fast test for whether $N$ is squarefree. We also show how to obtain bounds on the possible square divisors of a number $N$ that has been found not to be squarefree via this test, and we show how to probabilistically obtain the complete factorization of the squarefull part of $N$ from the number of such automorphic representations for two different weights. If in addition we have the number of such Hecke newforms for even a single weight $k$, then we show how to probabilistically factor $N$ entirely. All of these computations could be performed quickly in practice, given the number(s) of automorphic representations and modular forms as input.
