Red Supergiants in the JWST Era. I. Near-IR Photometric Diagnostics
Authors: Levesque Emily M. 
Published: November 2018

Abstract
The Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam) on the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) will be an incredibly powerful instrument for studying red supergiants (RSGs). The high luminosities and red peak wavelengths of these stars make them ideal targets for JWST/NIRCam. With effective photometric diagnostics in place, imaging RSG populations in multiple filters will make it possible to determine these stars’ physical properties and, in cases where JWST pre-explosion imaging is available, to identify RSG supernova progenitors. This paper uses observed and model spectra of Galactic RSGs to simulate JWST/NIRCam near-IR photometry and colors, quantify and test potential diagnostics of effective temperature and bolometric magnitude, and present photometric techniques for separating background RSG and foreground dwarf populations. While results are presented for the full suite of near-IR filters, this work shows that (F070W–F200W) is the JWST/NIRCam color index most sensitive to effective temperature, F090W is the best band for determining bolometric magnitude, and the (F070W–F090W) versus (F090W–F200W) color–color diagram can be used to separate foreground dwarf and background RSG samples. The combination of these three filters is recommended as the best suite of photometric observations to use when studying RSGs with JWST.
Automated Detection of Small-scale Magnetic Flux Ropes in the Solar Wind: First Results from the Wind Spacecraft Measurements

Published: November 2018

Abstract
We have developed a new automated small-scale magnetic flux rope (SSMFR) detection algorithm based on the Grad–Shafranov (GS) reconstruction technique. We have applied this detection algorithm to the Wind spacecraft in situ measurements during 1996–2016, covering two solar cycles, and successfully detected a total number of 74,241 small-scale magnetic flux rope events with duration from 9 to 361 minutes. This large number of small-scale magnetic flux ropes has not been discovered by any other previous studies through this unique approach. We perform statistical analysis of the small-scale magnetic flux rope events based on our newly developed database, and summarize the main findings as follows. (1) The occurrence of small-scale flux ropes has strong solar-cycle dependency with a rate of a few hundred per month on average. (2) The small-scale magnetic flux ropes in the ecliptic plane tend to align along the Parker spiral. (3) In low-speed (<400 km s−1) solar wind, the flux ropes tend to have lower proton temperature and higher proton number density, while in high-speed (≥400 km s−1) solar wind, they tend to have higher proton temperature and lower proton number density. (4) Both the duration and scale size distributions of the small-scale magnetic flux ropes obey a power law. (5) The waiting time distribution of small-scale magnetic flux ropes can be fitted by an exponential function (for shorter waiting times) and a power-law function (for longer waiting times). (6) The wall-to-wall time distribution obeys double power laws with the break point at 60 minutes (corresponding to the correlation length). (7) The small-scale magnetic flux ropes tend to accumulate near the heliospheric current sheet (HCS). The entire database is available at http://fluxrope.info and in machine-readable format in this article.
Studies of the effect of cerebroprotective substances on the course of stress-induced behavioral depression
Authors: Zaika Tamara O. , Evdokimov Dmitriy V. , Abramets Igor I. 
Published: November 2018

Introduction. Atrophic disturbances of neurons of the limbic structures of the brain, which lead to insufficient regulation of emotions and mood, cause depression. Substances with cerebroprotective activity have the ability to inhibit further development and even reverse atrophic damage to neurons.
Materials and methods. Using electrophysiological techniques, the cerebroprotective activity of piracetam, diacamf – (±)-cis-3-(2-benzimidazolyl)-1,2,2-trimethylcyclopentanone-carboxylic acid hydrochloride and the compound R-86, or 3,2’-spiro-pyrrolo-2-oxindole, was investigated in rat hippocampal slices. In behavioral experiments, there was studied the influence of the above substances, which had been administered for 20 days, on the most important manifestations of behavioral depression in rats caused by a five-day swim stress, such as the time of immobilization in the forced swim test and the indicator of preference for consuming sucrose solution. In addition, the influence of piracetam and diacamf was studied on the effects of the classic antidepressant imipramine.
Results and discussion. It was found that piracetam, diacamf and the compound R-86 in in vitro studies reduced the damage to the pyramidal hippocampal neurons caused by anoxia and aglycemia, the excitotoxic activity of N-methyl-D-aspartate and oxidative stress when hydrogen peroxide was applied to the slices. Cerebroprotective activity of the test substances, when they are systemically administered for 20 days, is linked with their antidepressant-like effect, which was manifested in a decrease in the immobilization time in the swim test and an increase in the sucrose solution consumption indicator. Co-administration of piracetam in rats potentiated antidepressant activity of imipramine, and diacamf showed additive synergism with the antidepressant.
Conclusion. Substances with cerebroprotective activity in their chronic administration may show an antidepressant-like effect. Those that potentiate the action of classical anidepressants can be used in conjunction with antidepressants during episodes of exacerbation of the disease. Less active cerebroprotective drugs can be recommended during remission for its prolongation.

Authors: Mal Galina S. , Gribovskaya Irina A. 
Published: November 2018

Introduction. The present study evaluated the interaction of statin response and genetic polymorphism of interleukin (IL-1β, IL-6, IL-4, IL-10) genes with the course of atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease (CHD) in patients with CHD combined with acute respiratory viral infections (ARVI).
Objectives. Studying variability of Rosuvastatin response in patients with CHD combined with ARVI, taking cytokine gene polymorphism into account.
Materials and methods. Detection of lipid metabolism parameters and interleukin levels in blood serum; verification of causative agents of the infectious process. Genotyping of polymorphisms IL-1β –511C>T, IL-6 –174G>C, IL-4 –589C>T, IL-10 –1082G>А. Statistical processing in Microsoft Office Excel 2007 software.
Results and discussion. In CHD patients at Visit I, the target level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) was reached by 55.7% of participants. At Visit II, the target LDL-C level was reached by 49.7% of patients, which coincided with ARVI detection in some patients.
In CHD patients with ARVI at Visit II, the IL-1β level increased to 33.00 pg/ml (N=5.00 pg/ml), IL-6 – 19.20 pg/ml (N=9.00 pg/ml); at Visit VI those levels decreased to 20.70 pg/ml and 12.80 pg/ml. The IL-4 level was 8.30 pg/ml (N=13.00 pg/ml), while IL-10 level was 19.40 pg/ml (N=31.00 pg/ml), with their increase at Visit VI to 15.80 pg/ml and 33.50 pg/ml.
CHD patients without ARVI did not develop interleukin level changes. At Visit II, the IL-1β level was 10.30 pg/ml, IL-6 level was 12.40 pg/ml, and at Visit VI, they were 13.00 pg/ml and 14.00 pg/ml. The IL-4 and IL-10 levels at Visit II were 19.70 pg/ml and 32.30 pg/ml; at Visit VI, those levels were 23.20 pg/ml and 34.20 pg/ml. The following associations were demonstrated: –511CT / increased IL-1β, LDL-C synthesis; –511СС / LDL-C level increase; –174GG / IL-6, LDL-C level increase; –1082GG / IL-10 level increase, cholesterol and CRP level decrease; –589ТТ / CRP, IL-4 level increase.
Conclusion. Genotypes –511CT, –174GG, –1082AA in all patients required 20 mg/day Rosuvastatin dose to reach the target LDL-C level.

Published: November 2018

Background:Mast cells are observed in peritoneal endometriosis which causes dysmenorrhea. However, there is no report about the relationship between endocervical mast cells and dysmenorrhea. The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship using endocervical smears.Materials and Methods:Between January 2016 and June 2016, patients filled out a questionnaire regarding dysmenorrhea and were classified into the dysmenorrhea or the control group (without dysmenorrhea). Patients underwent endocervical brushing and endocervical smears were obtained. The smears were stained with methylene blue to detect mast cells. The number of mast cells per slide was counted by microscopy and recorded.Results:Eighty-nine patients were enrolled in this study (dysmenorrhea group, 34; control group, 55). The median number of mast cells present in the endocervical one slides was 35 (interquartile range, 17–58) and 2 (interquartile range, 0–6) in the dysmenorrhea and control groups, respectively. There was a significant difference in the number of mast cells between the two groups (P< 0.0001).Conclusion:More mast cells were observed in the endocervical smears of women with dysmenorrhea than in those of women without dysmenorrhea.
Artificial Neural Network (ANN) in a Small Dataset to determine Neutrality in the Pronunciation of English as a Foreign Language in Filipino Call Center Agents
Authors: Baquirin Rey Benjamin M. , Fernandez Proceso L. 
Published: November 2018

Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) have continued to be efficient models in solving classification problems. In this paper, we explore the use of an A NN with a small dataset to accurately classify whet her Filipino call center agentsâ€™ pronunciations are neutral or not based on their employerâ€™s standards. Isolated utterances of the
ten most commonly used words in the call center were recorded from eleven agents creating a dataset of
110 utterances. Two learning specialists were consulted to establish ground truths and Cohenâ€™s Kappa was computed as 0.82, validating the reliability of the dataset. The first thirteen Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCCs) were then extracted from each word and an ANN was trained with Ten-fold Stratified Cross Validation.
Experimental results on the model recorded a classification accuracy of 89.60% supported by an overall F-Score
of 0.92.
