description: Investigation of N-heterocycle transition metal complexes has led to the discovery of metal-based antitumor agents. Herein, two binuclear complexes, [Cu(p-4-bmb)(Ac)2]2 (1) and [Co(p-4-bmp)Cl2]2 (2), were prepared and characterized. The interactions of 1 and 2 with calf thymus (CT)-DNA and bovine serum albumin (BSA) were detected by absorbance and emission spectroscopy. The complexes bind to CT-DNA via an intercalative mode and show moderate affinity to BSA. Both complexes exhibited remarkable DNA cleavage activity. The MTT assay demonstrated that 1 exhibited higher cytotoxicity against three human alimentary system carcinoma cell lines compared to 2. Further, a cellular uptake assay demonstrated that 1 can accumulate in the nucleus and mitochondria of SMMC7721 cells to induce DNA damage and mitochondrial dysfunction. Fluorescence staining and flow cytometry analyses revealed that 1 can induce cell death by apoptosis. These findings should promote the development of benzimidazole-based transition metal complexes as novel chemotherapy agents with fewer side effects than conventional antitumor drugs.

title: Rationality and distribution in the socialist economy
Creators: name: Dapprich, Jan Philipp
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: socialism, economic planning, planning, distribution, justice, distributive justice, economic rationality, rationality, socialist calculation debate, utopia, utopianism.

description: The thesis provides a philosophically grounded account of a socialist planned economy. While I do not primarily consider a positive case for socialism, I address two major objections to it and thus argue that the possibility of socialism as an alternative form of economic organisation has been dismissed too quickly. Furthermore, I provide an account of the precise form a socialist economy should take, outlining general principles of planning and distribution. Based on a welfarist interpretation of Marx, I show that distribution of consumer goods should be facilitated by an equal distribution of tokens. These tokens can be redeemed for consumer products or substituted for additional leisure time. The rates at which tokens can be redeemed for consumer products should correspond to market clearing prices. Welfare-oriented socialism is also defended against a deontological objection to socialism by Robert Nozick, who claims that socialism leads to injustice because it violates private property rights. The thesis also considers Ludwig von Mises’s calculation argument against socialism, which claims that socialism leads to the abolition of economic rationality. I show how this objection can be overcome by using optimal planning techniques which are responsive to consumer demand as signalled by the market clearing rates of consumer products. The resulting model of socialism is tested using a computer simulation. The simulation also demonstrates that a novel system of valuation based on opportunity cost leads to a better adaptation of production in response to environmental constraints when compared to the labour values of classical political economy.

description: Résumé (Français)

La recherche révolutionnaire d’Henri Mémery, astronome et directeur de l'Observatoire de Talence près de Bordeaux, présentée dans sa publication de 1932 L’Influence Solaire et les Progrès de la Météorologie, a révélé une corrélation surprenante entre les taches solaires et la position de la Terre dans son orbite autour du Soleil. Cette découverte clé—suggérant que les phénomènes solaires ne sont pas indépendants des mouvements terrestres—n’a jamais été entièrement expliquée ou validée par la science dominante, et bien que présente dans de nombreuses archives, elle est peut-être largement passée inaperçue. Au-delà des schémas météorologiques, les découvertes de Mémery suggèrent une influence des cycles solaires sur les activités sismiques et volcaniques, établissant un lien potentiel entre les cycles des taches solaires et des événements tels que les tremblements de terre et les éruptions volcaniques. Cet article appelle à une nouvelle enquête sur la relation Cosmos-Soleil-Terre et son impact potentiel sur les processus atmosphériques, géophysiques et tectoniques.

 

Abstract (English)

The Influence of the Sun and the Advances in Meteorology

The groundbreaking research of Henri Mémery, leading astronomer  and director of the Talence Observatory near Bordeaux, presented in his 1932 publication The Influence of the Sun and Advances in Meteorology, uncovered a surprising correlation between sunspots and Earth’s position in its orbit around the Sun. This key discovery—suggesting that solar phenomena are not independent of terrestrial movements—has never been fully explained or validated by mainstream science, and despite being present in many archives, may have largely gone unnoticed. In addition to weather patterns, Mémery’s findings hint at the influence of solar cycles on seismic and volcanic activities, suggesting a potential link between sunspot cycles and events like earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. This paper calls for a renewed investigation into the Cosmos-Sun-Earth relationship and its potential impact on atmospheric, geophysical, and tectonic processes.

title: Electrolyte analysis in dogs with hypoadrenocorticism: A comparison of two in-house analysers with a reference laboratory
Creators: name: Fowlie, Samuel
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: canine, dogs, hypoadrenocorticism, Addison’s disease, fludrocortisone, desoxycortone pivalate, DOCP, electrolytes, sodium, potassium, chloride, Olympus AU640, Siemens Dimension Xpand Plus, Idexx Catalyst™ Dx, Idexx VetStat®.

description: Dog’s treated for hypoadrenocorticism are routinely monitored through analysis of their blood electrolyte concentrations. This is often performed with point-of-care analysers to facilitate faster medication dose adjustments based on the results. The objective of this study was to investigate the performance of two point-of-care analysers (IDEXX Catalyst™ Dx and IDEXX VetStat®) against a reference laboratory indirect ion-selective-electrode method (Olympus AU640 or Siemens Dimenson Xpand Plus) for the measurement of blood sodium, potassium and chloride concentrations, as well as the sodium: potassium ratio, in dogs diagnosed with and treated for hypoadrenocorticism. Forty-eight dogs were enrolled into a prospective cross-sectional study. Paired blood samples were taken and tested on the two point-of-care analysers and at the reference laboratory. Statistical analysis was then performed with Spearman’s correlations, BlandAltman analysis, Passing-Bablok regression and Cohen’s Kappa analysis. The clinical effects of inaccurate electrolyte analysis were also considered. In total, 329 samples were tested on the IDEXX Catalyst™ Dx analyser, whilst another 72 samples were tested on the IDEXX VetStat®. Spearman’s correlations were acceptable for all electrolytes, but regression analysis identified both proportional and constant bias for some analytes. There was poor agreement between sodium and chloride concentrations on both analysers and they tended to give higher results than the reference ISE method for all analytes, except for potassium when measured on the IDEXX VetStat®. In conclusion, there are inherent differences between the electrolyte concentrations measured by these two point-of-care analysers and reference laboratory methods in dogs with hypoadrenocorticism. Clinicians should be aware of this and consistent in their method of measurement of electrolytes when monitoring these dogs.

description: Heptazine is the fundamental structural and functional unit of graphitic carbon nitrides and has a π-conjugated planar symmetry with semiconducting properties. Molecular self-assembly is one of the key factors to drive the electronic behaviour of π-conjugated organic molecules. To enhance the semiconductivity, heptazine is decorated at its active sites with 2,3,5-tris(dodecyloxy)aniline to get well-organised columnar packing. A novel heptazine-core room-temperature discotic liquid crystal (HDLC) with hexagonal columnar geometry is discovered. The molecular structure and mesomorphic properties of HDLC are investigated by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, IR, polarised optical microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction. Photophysical and electrochemical properties of HDLC are studied by UV–vis/fluorescence spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry (CV), respectively. The energy band gap of HDLC estimated from CV at room temperature is 1.63 eV, which is much narrower than the previously reported band gap for heptazine derivatives. This decrease in the energy band can be attributed to the particular designing of HDLC for columnar packing. As a columnar liquid crystal providing a smooth path to the charge transport, HDLC with such a narrow energy band gap may find applications in organic electronics.

description: The evolution of starch synthase (SS) has been extensively analysed in the model plant rice, but there have been few detailed studies directed towards exploring the intron splicing variant effect on the divergence of the SS gene. We report here an example that the alternative splicing of a GC-AG intron induced a new splicing isoform of SSII-1 expressed in Oryza sativa japonica cultivar Zhonghua-15. In addition, a GT-AG intron flanking the alternative splicing GC-AG intron was simultaneously spliced at an incorrect position, inducing another intron fragment gained in mature SSII-1 RNA. Moreover, when a GT-AG intron from SSII-3 was artificially mutated into the GC-AG intron, a 28 bp fragment from the intron added to the mature RNA could be observed in transgenic rice. In this study, the alternative intron splicing of the GC-AG intron might offer more variants for genetic divergence of the starch synthase gene family in rice.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: Data-driven analysis has recently emerged as an important task for smart water management as large amount of various data collected via smart meters, sensors and data loggers. Among the methods developed for data-driven modeling, deep neural network (DNN) is proved as the competitive and generic approach to solve many challenging problems, including but not limited to voice recognition, natural language processing, image classification etc. Deep belief network (DBN) is one of the DNNs and widely used for data analysis. This paper extended authors’ previous research in applying DBN model with the genetic algorithm to integrate with the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF). It results in a comprehensive and generic approach, by which the genetic algorithm is employed to optimize the configuration of the DBN and the EKF is applied to assimilate the newly available data with the trained DBN model so that the model can be updated whenever new data becomes available. The proposed method has been tested in the case studies of different domains, including but not limited to water distribution systems. The results show that the deep learning method integrated with EKF has resulted in good performance.

description: Short-term water demand forecasts are valuable for distribution system operators controlling the production, storage and delivery of drinking water. In certain problems, such as real-time pump scheduling, the cycle of data acquisition, model computation, and decision-making is time-sensitive, and requires an automatic procedure to handle the transfer of information between data source(s), forecasting model(s), and the operator. Recent development of a composite demand-hydraulic model integrates a demand time series model with a hydraulic network model to estimate and forecast demands using measurements typically available to water utilities. The application to a real-world network model with approximately 12,000 demand nodes and six flow measurements resulted in good representation of the observed flow rates. However, the performance of the demand-hydraulic algorithm, and subsequent analysis, has demonstrated limitations in two aspects of the demand estimation and forecasting framework: the temporal representation of the estimated demands, and the clustering approach needed to reduce the scale of the parameter estimation problem. The current research will present preliminary results associated with data-driven approaches for representing the temporal demands and application of alternative clustering algorithms to improve the overall demand estimation process.

description: One of the most fundamental questions surrounding the new Paris Agreement is whether countries’ proposals to reduce GHG emissions after 2020 are equally ambitious, considering differences in circumstances between countries. We review a variety of approaches to assess the ambition of the GHG emission reduction proposals by countries. The approaches are applied illustratively to the mitigation part of the post-2020 climate proposals (nationally determined contributions, or NDCs) by China, the EU, and the US. The analysis reveals several clear trends, even though the results differ per individual assessment approach. We recommend that such a comprehensive ambition assessment framework, employing a large variety of approaches, is used in the future to capture a wide spectrum of perspectives on ambition. POLICY RELEVANCE Assessing the ambition of the national climate proposals is particularly important as the Paris Agreement asks for regular reviews of national contributions, keeping in mind that countries raise their ambition over time. Such an assessment will be an important part of the regular global stocktake that will take place every five years, starting with a ‘light’ version in 2018. However, comprehensive methods to assess the proposals are lacking. This article provides such a comprehensive assessment framework.

description: Introduction: A dysregulated sympathetic nervous system is a major factor in the development and progression of cardiovascular disease; thus, understanding the mechanism and function of the sympathetic nervous system and appropriately regulating sympathetic activity to treat various cardiovascular diseases are crucial. Areas covered: This review focused on previous studies in managing hypertension, atrial fibrillation, coronary artery disease, heart failure, and perioperative management with sympathetic blockade. We reviewed both pharmacological and non-pharmacological management. Expert commentary: Chronic sympathetic nervous system activation is related to several cardiovascular diseases mediated by various pathways. Advancement in measuring sympathetic activity makes visualizing noninvasively and evaluating the activation level even in single fibers possible. Evidence suggests that sympathetic blockade still has a role in managing hypertension and controlling the heart rate in atrial fibrillation. For ischemic heart disease, beta-adrenergic receptor antagonists have been considered a milestone drug to control symptoms and prevent long-term adverse effects, although its clinical implication has become less potent in the era of successful revascularization. Owing to pathologic involvement of sympathetic nervous system activation in heart failure progression, sympathetic blockade has proved its value in improving the clinical course of patients with heart failure.
title: Islamophobia and anti-racism in two British cities: place, theory and practice
Creators: name: Harris, Scarlet
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: Race, racism, Islamophobia, anti-racism, nationalism.

description: In recent years, Islamophobia has taken on increasing significance as an issue in public, political, and academic debates. Despite this, there has been limited attention paid to the connections between Islamophobia, racism and – most starkly – anti-racism. The thesis begins by drawing together various, often atomised, sociological literatures to offer a ‘rearticulation’ of Islamophobia in relation to theories of race and racism. Through a series of qualitative interviews with community workers and anti-racist activists in the two British cities of Manchester and Glasgow, the thesis explores how Islamophobia is understood amongst those engaging with the issue, and what these understandings mean for organised responses ‘on the ground’. It situates current resistance to Islamophobia historically, exploring how local histories and traditions of anti-racism shape responses to Islamophobia today. The thesis utilises a multi-sited research methodology to draw out the differences and continuities between the two cities and emphasises the ‘relational’ (Goldberg 2009) nature of Islamophobia, racism and anti-racist work. It highlights the importance of ‘place’ (both civic and national) in shaping understandings of, and responses to, Islamophobia, and extends these discussions beyond England and into Scotland where research on such issues has been especially limited. The thesis makes the case that the articulation of Islamophobia via culture, alongside the dominance of particular frameworks for making sense of racism, presents a particular challenge for anti-racists and left movements more broadly. The accounts of Muslim activists reveal important tensions between experiences, understandings, and organised responses, but also point towards resources for analysing and challenging the structures of power which reproduce and sustain Islamophobia in the current moment.

description: Water loss control is a key issue for most water supply companies all over the world because of freshwater scarcity and ever-rising water demand. Beijing is one of the cities facing severe water scarcity, so water loss control has been emphasized during the past decades. However, due to the huge size of the water distribution network, there is a great need to optimize the water loss control strategies. The water distribution network of Beijing has been planned to be partitioned into over 700 DMAs. Assessment of the DMAs’ water loss conditions and prediction of the achievements of different water loss control measures are critical to manage these DMAs. The goal of this paper is to develop a mathematical model to reveal how low the water loss of a DMA could go, so as to optimize the water loss control strategies. 36 DMAs were selected as study areas and data of the lowest minimal nigh flow (LMNF) and DMA characters (including pipe material, pipe length, number of properties, pipe age, and water pressure) were collected. The relationship between LMNF and DMA characters was established using multi-variant regression method. The model fit the data with R 2 =0.8. The model was then compared to the commonly used water loss indicator UARL and its sensitivity to the input variables was analyzed. Finally, the model was applied by Beijing Waterworks Group to optimize its water loss control strategies.

Subjects: subject: Corporate Social Responsibility, alternative accounts, nature, nature-human interrelationship, Confucianism, Taoism, NGO.

description: This research explores a more holistic way of representing the social and environmental impact of hydro-electric dams built by the Three Gorges Corporation (TGC) along the Chang Jiang River in China. The focus is on the accounting representations of nature, human-nature interrelationships, human-human interrelationships and social and environmental issues. This research constructs a more holistic theoretical framework embodying concepts from Gallhofer (2018), Georgakopoulos and Thomson (2008), Thomson et al. (2015), and the traditional Chinese philosophies of Confucianism and Taoism and Chinese mythology and their ecological implications. Using a case study method, this research collects data from interviews, observations, documents from the TGC, an environmental NGO group, the relocated population, the river people, and local government officers, and offers self-reflection from the researcher. Thematic analysis, as well as analytical tools from critical discourse analysis, and visual methods are employed to analyse the empirical research. The analysis indicates that TGC’s accounts represented a self-contradictory concept of harmony. The river people’s accounts further exemplified both harmonized aspects and conflicts, and dualism thinking. The relocated people’s accounts uncover the multiplicities of their life experiences before, and after, the relocation which is contrary to the homogenised delineation from the official sources. Incidences of conflict and tensions are also identified. The NGO group’s accounts are progressive in their emphasis and relationships towards both nature and humans and in their intentions to counter the Corporation. The researcher’s self-reflection reveals the obstacles and personal insights through the engagement with the relocation, government officials and river people in the Chinese context. This research illustrates the multiple perceptions and understanding of interrelationships and issues, at various levels, from accounts produced from both official and alternative sources and asks for further engagement from both these sources in the Chinese context.

description: Poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA)–functionalized β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) polymer crosslinked by citric acid (PVA-g-CD) was synthesized, characterized and evaluated for the catalytic oxidation of cinnamaldehydes. The polymer showed good activity and selectivity to aldehydes for some structurally diverse cinnamaldehydes. The enhanced catalytic activity may be attributed to the synergistic effect of the intermolecular weak interactions between β-CD and the functional group of PVA. In addition, calcium peroxide as a solid oxidant was found to significantly affect the reaction. This catalyst can be recovered and reused for five times without a significant loss in its activity and selectivity.

description: The Egyptian Mediterranean sand dunes are being lost due to recent excessive unplanned anthropogenic interventions that caused a modification in floristic composition. The present study provides a description of the floristic inventory and plant clusters in coastal dunes in relation to natural and human factors. Floristic sampling was carried out in nine transects along Nile Delta coast, a total of 55 plots were randomly placed and data on natural and anthropogenic factors were measured for each plot. Agglomerative Hierarchical Cluster allowed to identify four plant clusters: (A) Elymus farctus-Silene succulenta, (B) Echinops spinosus-Moltkiopsis ciliata, (C): Stipagrostis lanata-Echium angustifolium and (D): Lycium schweinfurthii-Asparagus stipularis. Fish farming, ceramic industry, trampling, agriculture, urbanization, magnesium, total nitrogen, potassium, calcium and organic matter were identified as the most significant key factors for the definition of plant clusters by Canonical Correspondence Analysis. Variance partitioning confirmed that 40% of the variance was explained by both natural and anthropogenic factors. In particular, anthropogenic factors explained only 9% while natural variables 2% of the total variance, whereas the combined shared effect was 29%. The information in this study enables us to establish an effective conservation strategy to prevent further declines in plant diversity along coastal dunes.

description: We present the results of a calculation of recombination coefficients for O^{2+} + e^- using an intermediate coupling treatment that fully accounts for the dependence of the distribution of population among the ground levels of O^{2+} on electron density and temperature. The calculation is extended down to low electron temperatures where dielectronic recombination arising from Rydberg states converging on the O^{2+} ground levels is an important process. The data, which consist of emission coefficients for 8889 recombination lines and recombination coefficients for the ground and metastable states of O^+ are in Cases A, B and C, and are organised as a function of the electron temperature and number density, as well as wavelength. An interactive fortran 77 data server is also provided as an accessory for mining the line emission coefficients and obtaining Lagrange interpolated values for any choice of the two variables between the explicitly provided values for any set of wavelengths. Some illustrations of the application of the new data to nebular observations are also provided.

description: Eight homologous series of 2-(or 3-)substituted phenyl 4ʹ-(4″-alkoxy (2ʹ-, or 3″-substituted phenylazo) benzoates (InXY) were prepared in which the suffix ‘X’ refers to the lateral substituent X attached to the terminal benzene ring that carries the alkoxy group, and the suffix ‘Y’ refers to the substituent attached to the other terminal phenyl group. Within each homologous series, the length of the terminal alkoxy group varies from 8 to 16 carbons, while the lateral polar substituents, X and Y, alternatively varies between CH3 and F. The mesophase behaviour was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry and identified by polarised optical microscopy. The results were discussed in terms of the polarity and steric effects of the two lateral substituents. Comparative correlations were made to investigate the effect of the second lateral substituent on the mesophase behaviour of the previously investigated mono-laterally substituted analogues. UV–vis spectroscopic study revealed that the compounds I8XY exhibited two absorption bands: low intense bands at 254–263 and a broad band at 364–376 nm. These bands are attributed to the π–π∗ transition of the phenyl rings and the whole mesogenic portion.

description: Uncertainties regarding food location and quality are among the greatest challenges faced by foragers and communal roosting may facilitate success through social foraging. The information centre hypothesis (ICH) suggests that uninformed individuals at shared roosts benefit from following informed individuals to previously visited resources. We tested several key prerequisites of the ICH in a social obligate scavenger, the Eurasian griffon vulture (Gyps fulvus), by tracking movements and behaviour of sympatric individuals across relatively large spatial scales, thereby precluding alternative explanations such as local enhancement. In agreement with the ICH, we found that ‘informed’ individuals returning to previously visited carcasses were followed by ‘uninformed’ vultures that consequently got access to these resources. When a dyad (two individuals that depart from the same roost within two minutes of each other) included an informed individual, they spent a higher proportion of the flight time close to each other at a shorter distance between them than otherwise. Although all individuals occasionally profited from following others, they differed in their tendencies to be informed or uninformed, independent of sex and age. This study provides evidence for ‘following behaviour’ in natural conditions and demonstrates differential roles and information states among foragers within a population. Moreover, demonstrating the possible reliance of vultures on following behaviour emphasizes that individuals in declining populations may suffer from reduced foraging efficiency.

description: Purpose: To investigate the molecular aspects of the synergy between ionizing radiation and platinum (Pt) chemotherapeutic agents in cancer treatment with chemoradiation therapy (CRT) by measuring damages induced by low-energy electrons (LEE) to DNA bound to cisplatin. LEE are produced abundantly by any type of ionizing radiation and cisplatin represents a typical Pt-chemotherapeutic agents. Materials and methods: Our strategy involves two parallel administrations of cisplatin and irradiation with a 4.6 and 9.6 eV electron fluence of 1.1 × 1012: (1) LEE bombardment of supercoiled DNA and its subsequent reaction with cisplatin; (2) the reaction of DNA with cisplatin followed by LEE irradiation. The damage yields for the loss of supercoiled (LS), single-strand breaks (SSB) and double-strand breaks (DSB) were obtained from gel electrophoresis analysis. Base modifications were revealed by treating the samples with Escherichia coli base excision repair endonuclease (Nth and Fpg). Results: The yields were deduced from the respective time–response for the reaction of DNA with cisplatin. The results show that binding cisplatin to DNA followed by LEE irradiation, consistently yields more DNA damages than the reverse order. In comparison to non-treated DNA, administration (2) results in an increase of LS and SSB of 1.4–3.3 folds and of DSB by more than an order of magnitude. Furthermore, after enzyme treatment, the yields of DSB rise by factors of 5.3–15.4, indicating a large increase of clustered damages, which should at least partially translate into an increase of lethal damages in cancer cells during the CRT. Conclusions: Our results demonstrate that a strong synergy between radiation and cisplatin can only be achieved at the molecular level, if the drug is present at the time of irradiation. Furthermore, this work confirms the LEE mechanism previously proposed to explain the synergy between radiation and Pt drugs in CRT. It involves chemical sensitization of DNA prior to irradiation, to facilitate strand breaks and clustered damages induced by the highly reactive LEE.
