description: We derive the modified diffusion equations defined on kappa-space-time and using these, investigate the change in the spectral dimension of kappa-space-time with the probe scale. These deformed diffusion equations are derived by applying Wick's rotation to the $κ$-deformed Schr$\ddot{o}$dinger equations obtained from different choices of Klein-Gordon equations in the $κ$-deformed space-time. Using the solutions of these equations, obtained by perturbative method, we calculate the spectral dimension for different choices of the generalized Laplacian and analyse the dimensional flow in the $κ$-space-time. In the limit of commutative space-time, we recover the well known equality of spectral dimension and topological dimension. We show that the higher derivative term in the deformed diffusion equations make the spectral dimension unbounded (from below) at high energies. We show that the finite mass of the probe results in the spectral dimension to become infinitely negative at low energies also. In all the cases, we have analysed the effect of finite size of the probe on the spectral dimension.

description: A heterotrophic, Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, sodium-requiring and motile bacterium was isolated from oil-contaminated surface water of the Gulf of Mexico during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. Strain O3.65T showed highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to Phaeobacter gallaeciensis BS107T and Phaeobacter inhibens T5T, both with 98.3%, respectively. Based on complete genome analysis, highest similarity was observed to species of the genus Ruegeria. Strain O3.65T exhibited a broad salinity, temperature and pH range of 0.5-10% NaCl, 4-45 °C and 5.5-9.0, respectively. The DNA G+C content of strain O3.65T was 61.5 mol%. The major respiratory lipoquinone was ubiquinone-10 (Q-10), the most dominant fatty acids (>1%) comprised 18: 1ω7c and 18: 1ω7c 11-methyl, 10: 0 3OH, 12: 1 3OH, 14: 1 3OH/3-oxo-14: 0, 16: 0, 16: 0 2OH, 18: 1 2OH and 12: 1. The polar lipid pattern indicated presence of phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol, an unidentified aminolipid, two unidentified phospholipids and seven unidentified lipids. On Difco marine broth agar, strain O3.65T formed smooth, shiny white to beige and convex colonies with regular edges. Phylogenetic, phylogenomic and phenotypic differences revealed that strain O3.65T represents a new species of a novel genus within the family Rhodobacteraceae, for which we propose the name Tritonibacter horizontis gen. nov., sp. nov. The type strain of the type species is O3.65T (=DSM 101689T=LMG 29740T).

description: Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess whether age >=75 years impairs surgical, functional, and oncological outcomes after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). Materials and methods: Patients with prostate cancer (PCa) were stratified in >=75(n 1/4 669) vs. <70 years(n 1/4 8,268). Multivariable cox regression analyses (MVA) tested for effect of senior age on erectile function-, urinary continence-recovery, biochemical recurrence (BCR), and metastatic progression (MP). Results: RARP duration, blood loss, and 30d complication rates were similar between groups. For patients >=75 vs. <70 years, rates of erectile function after 36 and urinary continence after 12 months were 27 vs. 56% (p < 0.001) and 85 vs. 86% (p 1/4 0.99), respectively. Mean quality of life (QoL) score after 12 months improved in both groups (p 1/4 0.9). At 48 months, BCR- and MP- free rates were 77 vs. 85% (p < 0.001) and 97 vs. 98% (p ¼ 0.3), respectively. MVA confirmed the negative effect of senior age on erectile function but no significant effect on urinary continence, BCR or MP, before and after propensity score matching. Conclusion: Apart from erectile function, senior age has no significant effect on urinary continence recovery, BCR- or MP-free rates after RARP. Post-RARP QoL improved even in senior patients. Modern therapy of senior PCa patients should be based on individual counseling than just age.

description: The aim of this study was to assess clinically meaningful differences of preoperative lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and quality of life (QoL) before and after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). Therefore we identified 5506 RARP patients from 2007 to 2018 with completed International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) and -QoL questionnaires before and 12 months after RARP in our institution. Marked clinically important difference (MCID) was defined by using the strictest IPSS-difference of − 8 points. Multivariable logistic regression analyses (LRM) aimed to predict ∆IPSS ≤ − 8 and were restricted to RARP patients with preoperatively moderate (IPSS 8–19) vs. severe (IPSS 20–35) LUTS burden (n = 2305). Preoperative LUTS was categorized as moderate and severe in 37% (n = 2014) and 5.3% of the complete cohort (n = 291), respectively. Here, a postoperative ∆IPSS ≤ − 8, was reported in 38% vs. 90%. In LRM, younger age (OR 0.98, 95%CI 0.97–0.99; p = 0.007), lower BMI (OR 0.94, 95%CI 0.92–0.97; p < 0.001), higher preoperative LUTS burden (severe vs. moderate [REF.] OR 15.6, 95%CI 10.4–23.4; p < 0.001), greater prostate specimen weight (per 10 g, OR 1.12, 95%CI 1.07–1.16; p < 0.001) and the event of urinary continence recovery (OR 1.66 95%CI 1.25–2.21; p < 0.001) were independent predictors of a marked LUTS improvement after RARP. Less rigorous IPSS-difference of − 5 points yielded identical predictors. To sum up, in substantial proportions of patients with preoperative moderate or severe LUTS a marked improvement of LUTS and QoL can be expected at 12 months after RARP. LRM revealed greatest benefit in those patients with preoperatively greatest LUTS burden, prostate enlargement, lower BMI, younger age and the event of urinary continence recovery.

description: As part of Germany's digitalization program, two major collaborative initiatives were launched in the early 2020s to advance the digitization of material research in Germany. The Platform MaterialDigital (PMD), funded by the German Federal Ministry for Education and Research (BMBF), aims to digitize material research, enhancing efficiency, accelerating development, and improving research quality. Focused on industrial applications, it promotes standardized methods, interdisciplinary collaboration, and knowledge sharing [1]. This transformation seeks to position Germany as a leader in innovative material research by integrating digital tools and fostering practical, high-impact advancements. The National Research Data Infrastructure for Materials Science and Engineering (NFDI-MatWerk), also funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG), focuses on the integration and standardization of data from various sources, including both experimental and simulation data, as well as associated metadata [2]. This infrastructure is essential for supporting innovative research by providing the necessary tools and frameworks for efficient data management and long-term accessibility. Although several task areas are defined for both initiatives, one of the core focus areas in each project is developing materials science and engineering ontologies to standardize definitions, improve data integration, and foster greater collaboration across research disciplines. Following the ISO/IEC 21838-2 standard, the most recent versions of the PMD Core Ontology (PMDco) and MatWerk Ontology (MWO) utilize the Basic Formal Ontology (BFO) as the top-level ontology [3,4]. This talk will outline the scope and design of these ontologies, showcasing patterns and use cases for the semantic representation of materials science and engineering concepts.

description: Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic impact of concomitant prostate cancer (PCa) of the cancer-specific mortality (CSM) in the aging patient’s papulation with bladder cancer (BCa) treated with radical cystoprostatectomy (RCP). Materials and Methods: Within the SEER database (2004–2015), 1468 patients were treated with RCP for BCa harboring histopathological PCa findings. To account for other cause mortality (OCM), multivariable competing risk regression (CRR) tested for potential BCa-CSM differences according to PCa characteristics risk factors predicting CSM Results: CRR analysis revealed that only following BCa characteristics, as high pathological tumor stages(Ta/Tis/T1 [REF.] vs. T2; HR 2.03, 95% CI: 1.16-3.57, p ¼ 0.014 vs. T3; HR 4.32, 95% CI: 2.45-7.61, p < 0.001 vs. T4; HR 5.06, 95% CI: 2.77–9.22, p < 0.001), as well unfavorable BCa grade IV (Grade I–II [REF.] vs. Grade IV; HR 0.58, 95% CI: 0.35-0.98, p < 0.041) achieved independent predictor status of CSM. With regard to PCa characteristics, none of the covariates yielded independent predictor status of CSM. Conclusions: Our study, based on the largest population cohort, demonstrates that even in organ-confined BCa patients, concomitant PCa as second malignancy does not represent a risk factor for survival.

How clonal is clonal? Genome plasticity across multicellular segments of a "candidatus marithrix sp." filament from sulfidic, briny seafloor sediments in the Gulf of Mexico

description: "Candidatus Marithrix" is a recently described lineage within the group of large sulfur bacteria (Beggiatoaceae, Gammaproteobacteria). This genus of bacteria comprises vacuolated, attached-living filaments that inhabit the sediment surface around vent and seep sites in the marine environment. A single filament is ca. 100 μm in diameter, several millimeters long, and consists of hundreds of clonal cells, which are considered highly polyploid. Based on these characteristics, "Candidatus Marithrix" was used as a model organism for the assessment of genomic plasticity along segments of a single filament using next generation sequencing to possibly identify hotspots of microevolution. Using six consecutive segments of a single filament sampled from a mud volcano in the Gulf of Mexico, we recovered ca. 90% of the "Candidatus Marithrix" genome in each segment. There was a high level of genome conservation along the filament with average nucleotide identities between 99.98 and 100%. Different approaches to assemble all reads into a complete consensus genome could not fill the gaps. Each of the six segment datasets encoded merely a few hundred unique nucleotides and 5 or less unique genes-the residual content was redundant in all datasets. Besides the overall high genomic identity, we identified a similar number of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) between the clonal segments, which are comparable to numbers reported for other clonal organisms. An increase of SNPs with greater distance of filament segments was not observed. The polyploidy of the cells was apparent when analyzing the heterogeneity of reads within a segment. Here, a strong increase in single nucleotide variants, or "intrasegmental sequence heterogeneity" (ISH) events, was observed. These sites may represent hotspots for genome plasticity, and possibly microevolution, since two thirds of these variants were not co-localized across the genome copies of the multicellular filament.

description: We consider the time-dependent bi-coherent states that are essentially the Gazeau-Klauder coherent states for the two dimensional noncommutative harmonic oscillator. Starting from some q-deformations of the oscillator algebra for which the entire deformed Fock space can be constructed explicitly, we define the q-deformed bi-coherent states. We verify the generalized Heisenberg's uncertainty relations projected onto these states. For the initial value in time, the states are shown to satisfy a generalized version of Heisenberg's uncertainty relations. For the initial value in time and for the parameter of noncommutativity $θ=0$, the inequalities are saturated for the simultaneous measurement of the position-momentum observables. When the time evolves the uncertainty products are different from their values at the initial time and do not always respect the generalized uncertainty relations.

description: A brief review is given of the implications of a 126 GeV Higgs boson for the discovery of supersymmetry. Thus a 126 GeV Higgs boson is problematic within the Standard Model because of vacuum instability pointing to new physics beyond the Standard Model. The problem of vacuum stability is overcome in the SUGRA GUT model but the 126 GeV Higgs mass implies that the average SUSY scale lies in the several TeV region. The largeness of the SUSY scale relieves the tension on SUGRA models since it helps suppress flavor changing neutral currents and CP violating effects and also helps in extending the proton life time arising from baryon and lepton number violating dimension five operators. The geometry of radiative breaking of the electroweak symmetry and fine tuning in view of the large SUSY scale are analyzed.Consistency with the Brookhaven $g_μ-2$ result is discussed. It is also shown that a large SUSY scale implied by the 126 GeV Higgs boson mass allows for light gauginos (gluino, charginos, neutralinos) and sleptons. These along with the lighter third generation squarks are the prime candidates for discovery at RUN II of the LHC. Implication of the 126 GeV Higgs boson for the direct search for dark matter is discussed. Also discussed are the sparticles mass hierarchies and their relationship with the simplified models under the Higgs boson mass constraint.

title: Designing aerobic exercise interventions for stroke rehabilitation
Creators: name: Kelly, Liam P.
Publisher: name: Memorial  University of Newfoundland
Year: 2021

description: More than 405,000 Canadians are currently living with the life-altering effects of stroke. Cardiorespiratory fitness is characteristically low after stroke and has negative consequences for functional recovery, cardiovascular risk, and quality of life in this population. Although scientific evidence supports incorporating moderate-intensity aerobic exercise during stroke recovery, these findings have not translated into clinical care where patients are very sedentary and cardiorespiratory fitness levels remain in the “very poor” category. Among the challenges to incorporating aerobic exercise include a lack of access to the specialized equipment needed to accommodate stroke-related impairments. Also, hemiparesis can limit stroke survivors’ ability to sustain the workloads needed to reach moderate levels of aerobic intensity. Accordingly, the current thesis aimed to develop exercise strategies that can overcome these barriers. The first study investigated whether incorporating task-oriented activities typically offered during stroke rehabilitation into circuits that pair more metabolically demanding tasks with less demanding ones is an acceptable method to sustain moderate-intensity aerobic workloads over a single session. The second study evaluated the feasibility and preliminary effects of the task-oriented circuit-training protocol compared to treadmill aerobic exercise over a 10-week intervention period among 40 chronic hemiparetic stroke survivors. The final study investigated the safety and feasibility of pairing treadmill walking exercise with moderate normobaric hypoxia as a means to increase the cardiovascular strain of submaximal exercise among stroke survivors. The task-oriented circuit training protocol was associated with at least moderateintensity aerobic workloads over a single session and, compared to treadmill aerobic exercise, similar proportions of participants were able to maintain the exercise criteria over a 10-week intervention period. One participant reported mild symptoms of nausea during treadmill walking under conditions of moderate normobaric hypoxia. No other adverse events were observed, and participants maintained constant absolute workloads during exercise in normobaric hypoxia, which was associated with a 10% increase in relative effort. The task-oriented circuit training protocol is a promising strategy to provide moderate-intensity aerobic exercise training stimulus without specialized equipment. Initial data also supports simulated altitude exposure as a safe and feasible method to increase the cardiovascular stress of submaximal exercise among chronic hemiparetic stroke survivors.

description: We compute the spectrum of scalar models with a general coupling to the scalar curvature. We find that the perturbative states of these theories are given by two massive spin-0 modes in addition to one massless spin-2 state. This latter mode can be identified with the standard graviton field. Indeed, we are able to define an Einstein frame, where the dynamics of the massless spin-2 graviton is the one associated with the Einstein-Hilbert action. We also explore the interactions of all these degrees of freedom in the mentioned frame, since part of the coupling structure can be anticipated by geometrical arguments.

description: Individuals traversing challenging obstacles are faced with a decision: they can adopt traversal strategies that minimally disrupt their normal locomotion patterns or they can adopt strategies that substantially alter their gait, conferring new advantages and disadvantages. We flew pigeons (Columba livia) through an array of vertical obstacles in a flight arena, presenting them with this choice. The pigeons selected either a strategy involving only a slight pause in the normal wingbeat cycle, or a wings folded posture granting reduced efficiency but greater stability should a misjudgment lead to collision. The more stable but less efficient flight strategy was not employed to traverse easy obstacles with wide gaps for passage, but came to dominate the postures used as obstacle challenge increased with narrower gaps and there was a greater chance of a collision. These results indicate that birds weigh potential obstacle negotiation strategies and estimate task difficulty during locomotor pattern selection.

description: We present evidence for the existence of a spontaneous instability towards an orbital loop-current phase in a multiorbital Hubbard model for the CuO$_2$ planes in cuprates. Contrary to the previously proposed $θ_{II}$ phase with intra-unit cell currents, the identified instability is towards a staggered pattern of intertwined current loops. The orbitally resolved current pattern thereby shares its staggered character with the proposal of d-density wave order. The current pattern will cause a Fermi surface reconstruction and the opening of a pseudogap. We argue that the pseudogap phase with time-reversal symmetry breaking currents is susceptible to further phase transitions and therefore offers a route to account for axial incommensurate charge order and a polar Kerr effect in underdoped cuprates.

Lower-limb exoskeletons utilize fixed control strategies and are not adaptable to user’s intention. To this end, the goal of this study was to investigate the potential of using temporal-difference learning and general value functions for predicting the next possible walking mode that will be selected

by users wearing exoskeletons in order to reduce the effort and cognitive load while switching between different modes of walking. Experiments were performed with a user wearing the Indego exoskeleton and given the authority to switch between five walking modes that were different in terms of speed and turn direction. The user’s switching preferences were learned and predicted from device-centric and room-centric measurements by considering similarities in the movements being performed. A switching list was updated to show the most probable future next modes to be selected by the user. In contrast to other approaches that either can only predict a single timestep or require intensive offline training, this work used a

computationally inexpensive method for learning and has the potential of providing temporally extended sets of predictions in real-time. Comparing the number of required manual switches between the machine-learned switching list and the best possible static lists showed an average decrease of 42.44% in the required switches for the machine-learned adaptive strategy. These promising results will facilitate the path for real-time application

of this technique.

description: "Candidatus Achromatium palustre" was recently described as the first marine representative of the Achromatium spp. in the Thiotrichaceae - a sister lineage to the Chromatiaceae in the Gammaproteobacteria. Achromatium spp. belong to the group of large sulfur bacteria as they can grow to nearly 100 μm in size and store elemental sulfur (S0) intracellularly. As a unique feature, Achromatium spp. can accumulate colloidal calcite (CaCO3) inclusions in great amounts. Currently, both process and function of calcite accumulation in bacteria is unknown, and all Achromatium spp. are uncultured. Recently, three single-cell draft genomes of Achromatium spp. from a brackish mineral spring were published, and here we present the first draft genome of a single "Candidatus Achromatium palustre" cell collected in the sediments of the Sippewissett Salt Marsh, Cape Cod, MA. Our draft dataset consists of 3.6 Mbp, has a G + C content of 38.1 % and is nearly complete (83 %). The next closest relative to the Achromatium spp. genomes is Thiorhodovibrio sp. 907 of the family Chromatiaceae, containing phototrophic sulfide-oxidizing bacteria.

Hierarchy of Bounds on Accessible Information and Informational Power

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: Quantum theory imposes fundamental limitations to the amount of information that can be carried by any quantum system. On the one hand, Holevo bound rules out the possibility to encode more information in a quantum system than in its classical counterpart, comprised of perfectly distinguishable states. On the other hand, when states are uniformly distributed in the state space, the so-called subentropy lower bound is saturated. How uniform quantum systems are can be naturally quantified by characterizing them as $t$-designs, with $t = \infty$ corresponding to the uniform distribution. Here we show the existence of a trade-off between the uniformity of a quantum system and the amount of information it can carry. To this aim, we derive a hierarchy of informational bounds as a function of $t$ and prove their tightness for qubits and qutrits. By deriving asymptotic formulae for large dimensions, we also show that the statistics generated by any $t$-design with $t > 1$ contains no more than a single bit of information, and this amount decreases with $t$. Holevo and subentropy bounds are recovered as particular cases for $t = 1$ and $t = \infty$, respectively.

description: Healthcare workers have one the highest rates of recorded work-related musculoskeletal disorders, mostly due to lifting and handling patients. Safe patient handling, through the use of patient lifts, was found to decrease injury rates, absenteeism and the need for job restrictions. Despite the availability of such assistive devices, healthcare workers do not use it consistently, due to many implementation barriers. The aim of this project is to scope the literature to examine existing studies on the barriers and facilitators for the use of such devices.

description: A distributed, hierarchical information service for computer networks might rely in several instances, located in different layers. A distributed directory service, for example, might be comprised of upper level listings, and local directories. The upper level listings contain a compact version of the local directories. Clients desiring to access the information contained in local directories might first access the high-level listings, in order to locate the appropriate local instance. One of the keys for the competent operation of such service is the ability of properly summarizing the information, which will be maintained in the upper level directories. We analyze the case of the Lookup Service in the Information Services plane of perfSONAR performance monitoring distributed architecture, which implements IPv4 summarization in its functions. We propose an empirical method, or heuristic, to achieve the summarizations, based on the PATRICIA tree. We further apply the heuristic on a simulated distributed test bed and contemplate the results.

description: We show that the number of observed voids in galaxy redshift surveys is a sensitive function of the equation of state of dark energy. Using the Fisher matrix formalism we find the error ellipses in the $w_0-w_a$ plane when the equation of state of dark energy is assumed to be of the form $w_{CPL}(z)=w_0 +w_a z/(1+z)$. We forecast the number of voids to be observed with the ESA Euclid satellite and the NASA WFIRST mission, taking into account updated details of the surveys to reach accurate estimates of their power. The theoretical model for the forecast of the number of voids is based on matches between abundances in simulations and the analytical prediction. To take into account the uncertainties within the model, we marginalize over its free parameters when calculating the Fisher matrices. The addition of the void abundance constraints to the data from Planck, HST and supernova survey data noticeably tighten the $w_0-w_a$ parameter space. We thus quantify the improvement in the constraints due to the use of voids and demonstrate that the void abundance is a sensitive new probe for the dark energy equation of state.

description: New stable quarks and charged leptons may exist and be hidden from detection, as they are bound by Coulomb interaction in neutral dark atoms of composite dark matter. This possibility leads to fundamentally new types of indirect effects related to the excitation of such dark atoms followed by their electromagnetic de-excitation. Stable -2 charged particles, bound to primordial helium in O-helium (OHe) atoms, represent the simplest model of dark atoms. Here we consider the structure of OHe atomic levels which is a necessary input for the indirect tests of such composite dark matter scenarios, and we give the spectrum of electromagnetic transitions from the levels excited in OHe collisions.

description: The implications of shearfree condition on instability range of anisotropic fluid in $f(R,T)$ are studied in this manuscript. A viable $f(R, T)$ model is chosen to arrive at stability criterion, where $R$ is Ricci scalar and $T$ is the trace of energy momentum tensor. The evolution of spherical star is explored by employing perturbation scheme on modified field equations and contracted Bianchi identities in $f(R, T)$. The effect of imposed shearfree condition on collapse equation and adiabatic index $Γ$ is studied in Newtonian and post-Newtonian regimes.

description: As more and more security tools provide organizations with cybersecurity capabilities, security analysts are overwhelmed by security events. Resolving these events is challenging due to extensive manual processes, limited financial resources, and human errors. Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) is an established approach to manage security tools and assets. However, SOAR platforms typically integrate traditional IT systems only. Additional considerations are required to deal with the Internet of Things (IoT), its multiple devices and complex networks. Therefore, we adapt SOAR to IoT. We first aggregate existing research and information on SOAR and SOAR platforms. We envision the SOAR4IoT framework, making IoT assets manageable for SOAR via middleware. We implement a prototypical digital twin-based SOAR application integrating IoT assets and security tools to validate our framework. The experimental setup includes two playbooks coping with Mirai and Sybil attacks. Results show feasibility as our SOAR application enables securing IoT assets with digital twins.
Microbial habitat connectivity across spatial scales and hydrothermal temperature gradients at Guaymas Basin

description: The Guaymas Basin (Gulf of California) hydrothermal vent area is known as a dynamic and hydrothermally vented sedimentary system, where the advection and production of a variety of different metabolic substrates support a high microbial diversity and activity in the seafloor. The main objective of our study was to explore the role of temperature and other environmental factors on community diversity, such as the presence of microbial mats and seafloor bathymetry within one hydrothermally vented field of 200 × 250 m dimension. In this field, temperature increased strongly with sediment depth reaching the known limit of life within a few decimeters. Potential sulfate reduction rate as a key community activity parameter was strongly affected by in situ temperature and sediment depth, declining from high rates of 1-5 μmol ml-1 d-1 at the surface to the detection limit below 5 cm sediment depth, despite the presence of sulfate and hydrocarbons. Automated Ribosomal Intergenic Spacer Analysis yielded a high-resolution fingerprint of the dominant members of the bacterial community. Our analyses showed strong temperature and sediment depth effects on bacterial cell abundance and Operational Taxonomic Units (OTUs) number, both declining by more than one order of magnitude below the top 5 cm of the sediment surface. Another fraction of the variation in diversity and community structure was explained by differences in the local bathymetry and spatial position within the vent field. Nevertheless, more than 80% of all detected OTUs were shared among the different temperature realms and sediment depths, after being classified as cold (T < 10°C), medium (10°C ≤ T < 40°C) or hot (T ≥ 40°C) temperature conditions, with significant OTU overlap with the richer surface communities. Overall, this indicates a high connectivity of benthic bacterial habitats in this dynamic and heterogeneous marine ecosystem influenced by strong hydrothermalism.
