description: Recent findings suggest an association between obesity, loss of gut barrier function and changes in microbiota profiles. Our primary objective was to examine the effect of caloric restriction and subsequent weight reduction on gut permeability in obese women. The impact on inflammatory markers and fecal microbiota was also investigated. The 4-week very-low calorie diet (VLCD, 800 kcal/day) induced a mean weight loss of 6.9 ± 1.9 kg accompanied by a reduction in HOMA-IR (Homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance), fasting plasma glucose and insulin, plasma leptin, and leptin gene expression in subcutaneous adipose tissue. Plasma high-molecular weight adiponectin (HMW adiponectin) was significantly increased after VLCD. Plasma levels of high- sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) and lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP) were significantly decreased after 28 days of VLCD. Using three different methods, gut paracellular permeability was decreased after VLCD. These changes in clinical parameters were not associated with major consistent changes in dominant bacterial communities in feces. In summary, a 4-week caloric restriction resulted in significant weight loss, improved gut barrier integrity and reduced systemic inflammation in obese women.

description: Der ischämische Schlaganfall stellt weltweit ein gesundheitsökonomisches Problem dar. Als die dritthäufigste Todesursache und als häufigste behindernde Krankheit weltweit sind die Optimierung der Akutversorgung und die Prävention von Komplikationen eine zwingende Notwendigkeit. Um diese Ziele erreichen zu können, ist es notwendig, unsere diagnostischen Mittel zu erweitern, um Komplikationen rechtzeitig zu erkennen und behandeln zu können. Dies soll anhand dieser, der kumulativen Habilitationsschrift zugrundliegenden Studien belegt werden.
Community-Based Programs: Reflecting the Experiences of "At-Risk" and Criminalized Young Women?

description: This study explored the types of services, particularly gender-specific services, available for "at-risk" and criminalized young women. The qualitative methodology entailed interviews with youth service providers in community-based programs in Ottawa, Canada. The findings of this study support the feminist research on female youth crime, specifically the presence of common themes found throughout many of these young women's lives such as violence, family conflict/fragmentation, institutionalization, residential instability/homelessness, drug and alcohol use issues, academic disruption/failure, and health issues. However, the manner in which these participants approached their work with young women often differed depending on their own understandings of these issues. Nevertheless, all of the participants noted various barriers in the ability of such community initiatives in delivering services to youths. Drawing broadly upon feminist perspectives on female delinquency, the analysis of this study focuses on how programs and services provided to "at-risk" and criminalized young women reflected their realities.

Narrating the Self and Painting an Image: Stephane Dion (2006--2008)---Not a Leader?

Subjects: subject: Biography.
subject: Journalism.
subject: Political Science, General.
subject: Mass Communications.

description: This thesis examines how the personal narrative of former Liberal leader Stephane Dion was shaped in the mediated environment of a minority Parliament. It is based on William James' (1890) consciousness of self and George H. Mead's (1934) notions of the self and the communicative gesture, coupled with work on narratives and self-presentation. These were combined with political image and the role of opponents and journalists in creating a leader's personal narrative. The thesis employs a qualitative research design with a microscopic conceptual approach and inductive reasoning for a textual analysis utilizing a narrative criticism method of rhetorical criticism, followed by in-depth interviews with journalists and political strategists. The analysis digs into the depiction of Dion in the English print media from the period of December 3, 2006 to September 6, 2008. Although the individual had the personal narrative as a politician with honesty and integrity, the analysis identifies that the dominant narrative of Dion was that he was a weak leader. The research finds the Liberal leader's opponents help reshape his narrative, which is granted legitimacy by journalists covering the political scene, and reinforced through the actions of Dion himself. In addition, the thesis outlines the challenges an opposition leader faces under the scrutiny of a minority Parliament and raises questions of what this means for Canadian political culture.

description: Background Larsen syndrome is an autosomal dominant skeletal dysplasia characterized by large joint dislocations and craniofacial dysmorphism. It is caused by missense or small in-frame deletions in the FLNB gene. To further characterize the phenotype and the mutation spectrum of this condition, we investigated seven probands, five sporadic individuals and a mother-son-duo with Larsen syndrome. Methods The seven patients from six unrelated families were clinically and radiologically evaluated. All patients were screened for mutations in selected exons and exon-intron boundaries of the FLNB gene by Sanger sequencing. FLNB transcript analysis was carried out in one patient to analyse the effect of the sequence variant on pre-mRNA splicing. Results All patients exhibited typical facial features and joint dislocations. Contrary to the widely described advanced carpal ossification, we noted delay in two patients. We identified the five novel mutations c.4927G > A/p.(Gly1643Ser), c.4876G > T / p.(Gly1626Trp), c.4664G > A / p.(Gly1555Asp), c.2055G > C / p.Gln685delins10 and c.5021C > T / p.(Ala1674Val) as well as a frequently observed mutation in Larsen syndrome [c.5164G > A/p.(Gly1722Ser)] in the hotspot regions. FLNB transcript analysis of the c.2055G > C variant revealed insertion of 27 bp intronic sequence between exon 13 and 14 which gives rise to in-frame deletion of glutamine 685 and insertion of ten novel amino acid residues (p.Gln685delins10). Conclusions All seven individuals with Larsen syndrome had a uniform clinical phenotype except for delayed carpal ossification in two of them. Our study reveals five novel FLNB mutations and confirms immunoglobulin-like (Ig) repeats 14 and 15 as major hotspot regions. The p.Gln685delins10 mutation is the first Larsen syndrome-associated alteration located in Ig repeat 5. All mutations reported so far leave the filamin B protein intact in accordance with a gain-of-function effect. Our findings underscore the characteristic clinical picture of FLNB-associated Larsen syndrome and add Ig repeat 5 to the filamin B domains affected by the clustered mutations.

description: L'examen de la prose flaubertienne dans Salammbo révèle l'espace d'un discours ou la phrase s'inscrit dans une énonciation, et où "Le Festin", chapitre-incipit, constitue une matrice qui annonce les tendances phrastiques du roman. Quelle perspective stylistique invoquer pour rendre compte de l'oralité de cette oeuvre? Nous proposons une stylistiques qui, par le biais d'une constellation d'études, interrogé tant la dynamique des phrases, que celles des paragraphes et du chapitre, pour ensuite analyser les correspondances qui découlent du "Festin". La fluidité du récit étant tributaire de la fragmentation du discours, la thèse s'arrête également sur la valeur du fragment pour finalement ouvrir la réflexion sur une perspective hypertextuelle.

description: Background Conversion Disorders (CD) are prevalent functional disorders. Although the pathogenesis is still not completely understood, an interaction of genetic, neurobiological, and psychosocial factors is quite likely. The aim of this study is to provide a systematic overview on imaging studies on CDs and investigate neuronal areas involved in Motor Conversion Disorders (MCD). Methods A systematic literature search was conducted on CD. Subsequently a meta-analysis of functional neuroimaging studies on MCD was implemented using an Activation Likelihood Estimation (ALE). We calculated differences between patients and healthy controls as well as between affected versus unaffected sides in addition to an overall analysis in order to identify neuronal areas related to MCD. Results Patients with MCD differ from healthy controls in the amygdala, superior temporal lobe, retrosplenial area, primary motor cortex, insula, red nucleus, thalamus, anterior as well as dorsolateral prefrontal and frontal cortex. When comparing affected versus unaffected sides, temporal cortex, dorsal anterior cingulate cortex, supramarginal gyrus, dorsal temporal lobe, anterior insula, primary somatosensory cortex, superior frontal gyrus and anterior prefrontal as well as frontal cortex show significant differences. Conclusions Neuronal areas seem to be involved in the pathogenesis, maintenance or as a result of MCD. Areas that are important for motor-planning, motor-selection or autonomic response seem to be especially relevant. Our results support the emotional unawareness theory but also underline the need of more support by conduction imaging studies on both CD and MCD.

description: Objective: Despite the prevalence of socio-cognitive disturbances, and their important diagnostic/therapeutic implications, the assessment of these disturbances remains scarce. This systematic review aims to identify available social cognition tools for adult assessment that use multimodal and/or dynamic social cues, specifying their strengths and limitations (e.g. from a methodological, psychometric, ecological, and clinical perspective). Method: An electronic search was conducted in Pubmed, PsychINFO, Embase and Scopus databases for articles published up to the 3th of January 2023 and the first 200 Google Scholar results on the same date. The PRISMA methodology was applied, 3884 studies were screened based on title and abstract and 329 full texts were screened. Articles using pseudo-dynamic methodologies (e.g. morphing), reported only subjective or self-reported measures, or investigated only physiological or brain activity responses were excluded. Results: In total, 149 works were included in this review, representing 65 assessment tools (i.e. 48% studying emotion recognition (n = 31), 32% Theory of Mind (n = 21), 5% empathy (n = 3), 1.5% moral cognition/social reasoning (n = 1), and 14% being multimodal (n = 9)). For each study, the tool’s main characteristics, psychometric properties, ecological validity indicators and available norms are reported. The tools are presented according to social-cognitive process assessed and communication channels used. Conclusions: This study highlights the lack of validated and standardized tools. A few tools appear to partially meet some clinical needs. The development of methodologies using a first-person paradigm and taking into account the multidimensional nature of social cognition seems a relevant research endeavour for greater ecological validity.

description: Pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A2 (PAPP-A2), a metalloproteinase purportedly related to pregnancy, foetal growth and development, has recently been described essential for pre-adult growth. Thus, we measured PAPP-A2 in plasma of a non-pregnant population and determined its associations with lifestyle, anthropometric or biochemical factors. In this cross-sectional study of 387 participants (20–70 years) randomly drawn from registration offices near Berlin, Germany, socio-economic and lifestyle factors were assessed by questionnaires, and anthropometric measures and blood samples were taken by trained personnel. Blood was analysed for standard clinical parameters. PAPP-A2 concentration was measured by ELISA. Generalized linear models were used to estimate associations with anthropometric and biochemical factors adjusted for age, sex, and weight. Adjusted mean PAPP-A2 concentration was slightly higher in women (283 pg/mL) than in men (261 pg/mL, p = 0.05) and positively correlated with age (r = 0.17, p = 0.001). PAPP-A2 concentration was inversely associated with body mass index (−2.7 pg/mL per kg/m2, p = 0.03) and weight (−1.0 pg/mL per kg, p = 0.01) and positively associated with γ-glutamyl transferase (13.6 pg/mL per SD, p = 0.02), aspartate transaminase (18.5 pg/mL per SD, p = 0.002) and lactate dehydrogenase (14.9 pg/mL per SD, p = 0.02). Our results support that PAPP-A2, beyond its established role in early growth and development is relevant in adult metabolisms.

description: Current institutional repository software provides few tools to help metadata librarians understand and analyse their collections. In this paper, we compare and contrast metadata analysis tools that were developed simultaneously, but independently, at two New Zealand institutions during a period of national investment in research repositories: the Metadata Analysis Tool (MAT) at The University of Waikato, and the Kiwi Research Information Service (KRIS) at the National Library of New Zealand. The tools have many similarities: they are convenient, online, on-demand services that harvest metadata using OAI-PMH, they were developed in response to feedback from repository administrators, and they both help pinpoint specific metadata errors as well as generating summary statistics. They also have significant differences: one is a dedicated tool while the other is part of a wider access tool; one gives a holistic view of the metadata while the other looks for specific problems; one seeks patterns in the data values while the other checks that those values conform to metadata standards. Both tools work in a complementary manner to existing web-based administration tools. We have observed that discovery and correction of metadata errors can be quickly achieved by switching web browser views from the analysis tool to the repository interface, and back. We summarise the findings from both tools' deployment into a checklist of requirements for metadata analysis tools.

Thermal preference and the effects of food availability on components of fitness in the bearded dragon, Pogona vitticeps
Creators: name: Plummer, Alana C
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Biology, Ecology.

description: Thermoregulatory indices are based on an estimation of the preferred body temperature range (Tset), but few studies have compared the different methods of measuring Tset or how these methods influence our understanding of the relationship between thermoregulation and physiological performance. For the bearded dragon, Pogona vitticeps, T sets were measured within a thermal gradient and shuttle box. Additionally, performance curves were determined for relative sprint speed and gut passage time. The shuttle box Tset was broader than the Tsets from the thermal gradient. Of the indices examines, only the effectiveness of thermoregulation may remain unaffected by differing methods of measuring Tset. The optimal Tbs for both performances were best described by the 50% Tb distribution. The Tb distributions were negatively skewed, suggesting support for net energy gain being maximized by thermoregulation. This study highlighted the need for more meaningful measures of thermoregulation than those provided only by temperature-dependent performances.

description: Channel identification of a time-varying channel is considered using superimposed training. A sequence of known symbols with lower power is arithmetically added to the information symbols before modulation and transmission. The channel estimation is done exploiting the known superimposed data in the transmitted signal. Two iterative algorithms are considered in this paper: recursive least squares (RLS) and the expectation maximization (EM). Performance of the proposed algorithms is compared with a simple avergaing scheme and the LMS algorihm. For short data blocks RLS outperforms EM, but with large blocks EM is superior.

description: Background: The degree by which mechanisms underlying phenotypic convergence are similar among taxa depends on the number of evolutionary paths available for selection to act upon. Likelihood of convergence will be influenced by an interplay of factors such as genetic architecture, phylogenetic history and population demography. To determine if there is convergence or divergence in mechanisms underlying phenotypic similarity, we assessed whether gene transcription patterns differed among species with similar levels of hypoxia tolerance. Results: Three species of marine fish from the superfamily Cottoidea (smoothhead sculpin [Artedius lateralis], sailfin sculpin [Nautichthys oculofasciatus] and Pacific staghorn sculpin [Leptocottus armatus]), all of which have previously been shown to share the same level of hypoxia tolerance, were exposed to short-(8 h) and longer-term (72 h) hypoxia and mRNA transcripts were assessed using a custom microarray. We examined hypoxia-induced transcription patterns in metabolic and protein production pathways and found that a high proportion of genes associated with these biological processes showed significant differences among the species. Specifically, the data suggest that the smoothhead sculpin, unlike the sailfin sculpin and the Pacific staghorn sculpin, relied on amino acid degradation rather than glycolysis or fatty acid oxidation to generate ATP during hypoxia exposure. There was also variation across the species in the transcription of genes involved in protein production (e.g. mRNA processing and protein translation), such that it increased in the smoothhead sculpin, decreased in the sailfin sculpin and was variable in the Pacific staghorn sculpin. Conclusions: Changes in metabolic and protein production pathways are part of the key responses of fishes to exposures to environmental hypoxia. Yet, species with similar overall hypoxia tolerance exhibited different transcriptional responses in these pathways, indicating flexibility and complexity of interactions in the evolution of the mechanisms underlying the hypoxia tolerance phenotype. The variation in the hypoxia-induced transcription of genes across species with similar hypoxia tolerance suggests that similar whole-animal phenotypes can emerge from divergent evolutionary paths that may affect metabolically important functions.

description: Abstract

Virtual keyboard-based non-touch character input systems present an advanced communication method between humans and computers, offering interaction in challenging environments like industrial settings. Extensive research has explored touch and touchless input methods, including hand gestures, aerial handwriting, sign language recognition, and finger alphabet systems. However, many systems require significant learning and complex processing for accurate character recognition. This reveals the need for more efficient, accessible, and low-overhead solutions in non-touch input technologies. This paper presents a virtual keyboard-based character input system that utilizes hand gesture detection to create a novel touchless human-computer interaction (HCI) interface. The study has two key components: a hand gesture recognition system and a character input method. The system leverages MediaPipe's pre-trained models to accurately detect human body keypoints, enabling mid-air typing through intuitive hand gestures. We calculated the angles and distances between various keypoints to extract the features for gesture recognition. OpenCV is used for data collection, and Pynput facilitates keyboard control. A CronoNet architecture-based model powers the system, translating hand gestures into precise keyboard inputs. The virtual keyboard supports seamless transitions between language layouts, including English and Bengali. It recognizes gestures for commands such as scrolling (up/down), swiping (left/right), thumbs up, and finger tapping for input. The system achieved an average accuracy of 96.54% in gesture recognition and 97.07% in character input, showcasing its superiority over state-of-the-art methods.

description: Introduction: Despite universal access to government-funded direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) in 2016, the rate of hepatitis C treatment uptake in Australia has declined substantially. Most hepatitis C is related to injecting drug use; reducing the hepatitis C burden among people who inject drugs (PWID) is, therefore, paramount to reach hepatitis C elimination targets. Increasing DAA uptake by PWID is important for interrupting transmission and reducing incidence, as well as reducing morbidity and mortality and improving quality of life of PWID and meeting Australia's hepatitis C elimination targets. Methods and analysis: A cluster randomised cross-over trial will be conducted with three intervention arms and a control arm. Arm A will receive rapid hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody testing; arm B will receive rapid HCV antibody and rapid RNA testing; arm C will receive rapid HCV antibody testing and same-day treatment initiation for HCV antibody-positive participants; the control arm will receive standard of care. The primary outcomes will be (a) the proportion of participants with HCV commencing treatment and (b) the proportion of participants with HCV achieving cure. Analyses will be conducted on an intention-to-treat basis with mixed-effects logistic regression models. Ethics and dissemination: The study has been approved by the Alfred Ethics Committee (number HREC/64731/Alfred-2020-217547). Each participant will provide written informed consent. Reportable adverse events will be reported to the reviewing ethics committee. The findings will be presented at scientific conferences and published in peer-reviewed journals.

description: Current database technologies do not support contextualised representations of multi-dimensional narratives. This paper outlines a new approach to this problem using a multi-dimensional database served in a 3D game environment. Preliminary results indicate it is a particularly efficient method for the types of contextualised narratives used by Australian Aboriginal peoples to tell their stories about their traditional landscapes and knowledge practices. We discuss the development of a tool that complements rather than supplants direct experience of these traditional knowledge practices.

description: Background: Issues with the uptake of research findings in applied health services research remain problematic. Part of this disconnect is attributed to the exclusion of knowledge users at the outset of a study, which often results in the generation of knowledge that is not usable at the point of care. Integrated knowledge translation blended with qualitative methodologies has the potential to address this issue by working alongside knowledge users throughout the research process. Nevertheless, there is currently a paucity of literature about how integrated knowledge translation can be integrated into qualitative methodology; herein, we begin to address this gap in methodology discourse. The purpose of this paper is to describe our experience of conducting a focused ethnography with a collaborative integrated knowledge translation approach, including the synergies and potential sources of discord between integrated knowledge translation and focused ethnography. Methods: We describe the specific characteristics and synergies that exist when using an integrated knowledge translation approach with focused ethnography, using a research exemplar about the experiences of frail, older adults undergoing a transcatheter aortic valve implantation. Results: Embedding integrated knowledge translation within focused ethnography resulted in (1) an increased focus on the culture and values of the context under study, (2) a higher level of engagement among researchers, study participants and knowledge users, and (3) a commitment to partnership between researchers and knowledge users as part of a larger programme of research, resulting in a (4) greater emphasis on the importance of reciprocity and trustworthiness in the research process. Conclusions: Engaging in integrated knowledge translation from the outset of a study ensures that research findings are relevant for application at the point of care. The integration of integrated knowledge translation within focused ethnography allows for real-time uptake of meaningful and emerging findings, the strengthening of collaborative research teams, and opportunities for sustained programmes of research and relationships in the field of health services research. Further exploration of the integration of knowledge translation approaches with qualitative methodologies is recommended.
