description: Abstract

Background: The study aimed to assess the efficacy of cardiac nursing procedures namely cardiac rehabilitation, in improving the quality of life, medication adherence, and lifestyle modifications among post-myocardial infarction patients, in relation to their risk factors..Methods: This was quasi-experimental research that included 200 samples of post-myocardial infarction patients from a cardiology unit, chosen using a convenient sampling approach. The lifestyle modification assessment questionnaire was self-structured, and quantitative data was collected from the patients using the standardized WHO BREF scale and Morisky medication adherence scale. Results: After intervention, 53% of the experimental group had a moderate level of lifestyle modification score and none had a high level of lifestyle modification score, with 78.00% having a moderate level of quality-of-life score. After cardiac nurse interventions, 52% of Post MI patients exhibited good medication adherence. A significant positive correlation was found between quality of life and lifestyle modification (r= 0.38, P=0.001***), as well as between lifestyle modification and medication adherence (r= 0.34, P=0.001***). This suggests that as the score for lifestyle modification increases, so does the score for quality of life. Similarly, an increase in medication adherence score is associated with an increase in lifestyle modification score. Conclusıon: By providing specific lifestyle modifications during the discharge process, the Cardiac Nursing intervention improved medication adherence and quality of life. The cardiac rehabilitation program deserves to be recognized to nurses working in cardiac wards.

description: Dissociation temperatures of J/ψ, ψ', and χ_c states play key roles in the sequential J/ψsuppression scenario for high energy heavy ion collisions. We report on a study of charmonium dissociation temperatures in quenched lattice QCD. On anisotropic lattices, we first subtract the effects of the constant mode in finite temperature meson correlators, which have lead to unphysical results in previous studies. We then extract ground and first exited state masses by diagonalizing correlation functions among different source and sink operators. To distinguish bound states from scattering states, we first compare the charmonium mass spectra under different spatial boundary conditions, and examine the shape and the volume-dependence of their Bethe-Salpeter wave functions. From these studies, we found so far no sign of scattering states up to about 2.3T_c.

In these lecture notes we will present some general formulas concerning SUSY QM of first and second order for one-dimensional arbitrary systems, and we will illustrate the method through the trigonometric Poschl-Teller potentials. Some intrinsically related subjects, as the algebraic structure inherited by the new Hamiltonians and the corresponding coherent states will be analyzed. The technique will be as well implemented for periodic potentials, for which the corresponding spectrum is composed of allowed bands separated by energy gaps.

description: We explore the intensity correlations for thermal photons having $K_T\leq$ 2 GeV/$c$, for central collisions of heavy nuclei at RHIC and LHC energies. These photons get competing contributions from the quark and the hadronic phases. This competition gives rise to a unique structure, especially in the outward correlation function, due to the interference between the photons from the two sources. The temporal separation of the two sources provides the life time of the system and their strengths provide the relative contribution of the two phases. The results are found to be quite sensitive to the quark-hadron phase transition temperature and the formation time of the plasma.

description: We discuss effects of the stepping kinetics of molecular motors on their traffic behavior on crowded filaments using a simple two-state chemomechanical cycle. While the general traffic behavior is quite robust with respect to the detailed kinetics of the step, a few observable parameters exhibit a strong dependence on these parameters. Most strikingly, the effective unbinding rate of the motors may both increase and decrease with increasing traffic density, depending on the details of the motor step. Likewise the run length either exhibits a strong decrease or almost no dependence on the traffic density. We compare our theoretical results with recent experimental observations on motor traffic.

The use of gibberellin mutants to explore the role of microtubules in stem elongation
Creators: name: Kitchener, Anne Elizabeth
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: Six single gene mutants of garden pea (Pisum sativum L.) were utilised to further examine the control of internode elongation. These short mutants could be divided into two types; GA-synthesis (1s, le), and GA-response ( 1k, lka, lkb, 1w) types. They were compared with the parental wild-type cv. Torsdag in an analysis of the changes in orientation of cortical microtubules in expanding dark-grown internode tissue with distance from the apical hook. Immunofluorescence analysis of FITC-labelled cortical microtubules in tangential sections of epidermal cells and longitudinal sections of subepidermal cortical cells of the mutants and wild-type plants revealed a shift away from the wild-type microtubule arrangement toward less transverse microtubule arrays in the mutants. This lower average microtubule orientation (resulting from a reduced proportion of cells with predominantly transverse microtubule arrangement) correlated with decreases in the rate and distribution of extension growth along internode 3 of dark-grown mutants, providing additional circumstantial support for the role of transverse microtubule orientation in extension growth. Analysis of microtubule arrangement and growth profiles of the GA-synthesis mutants, le and is, revealed overall reductions in average microtubule orientation and rate and distribution of growth in comparison to wild-type plants. These changes correspond to the mutants' reduced endogenous GA1 content and implicate GA1 in the microtubule-mediated regulation of both rate and distribution of extension growth along the epicotyl. Exogenous application of GA1 to GA-synthesis mutants resulted in a shift in average microtubule orientation toward the wild-type arrangement, and a corresponding increase in internode length, substantiating a role for GA1 in microtubule-mediated extension growth. Average microtubule orientation in le and ls was never as transverse as in the wildtype, and transverseness of the array decreased more rapidly than in the wild-type over the same length of epicotyl, implicating GA1 in both the initial organization of microtubules and the maintenance of stability of transverse arrays.

description: Modern scientific studies often collect datasets in the form of tensors. These datasets call for innovative statistical analysis methods. In particular, there is a pressing need for tensor clustering methods to understand the heterogeneity in the data. We propose a tensor normal mixture model approach to enable probabilistic interpretation and computational tractability. Our statistical model leverages the tensor covariance structure to reduce the number of parameters for parsimonious modeling, and at the same time explicitly exploits the correlations for better variable selection and clustering. We propose a doubly enhanced expectation–maximization (DEEM) algorithm to perform clustering under this model. Both the expectation-step and the maximization-step are carefully tailored for tensor data in order to maximize statistical accuracy and minimize computational costs in high dimensions. Theoretical studies confirm that DEEM achieves consistent clustering even when the dimension of each mode of the tensors grows at an exponential rate of the sample size. Numerical studies demonstrate favorable performance of DEEM in comparison to existing methods.

description: Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods for the numerical solution of partial differential equations have enjoyed considerable success because they are both flexible and robust: They allow arbitrary unstructured geometries and easy control of accuracy without compromising simulation stability. Lately, another property of DG has been growing in importance: The majority of a DG operator is applied in an element-local way, with weak penalty-based element-to-element coupling. The resulting locality in memory access is one of the factors that enables DG to run on off-the-shelf, massively parallel graphics processors (GPUs). In addition, DG's high-order nature lets it require fewer data points per represented wavelength and hence fewer memory accesses, in exchange for higher arithmetic intensity. Both of these factors work significantly in favor of a GPU implementation of DG. Using a single US$400 Nvidia GTX 280 GPU, we accelerate a solver for Maxwell's equations on a general 3D unstructured grid by a factor of 40 to 60 relative to a serial computation on a current-generation CPU. In many cases, our algorithms exhibit full use of the device's available memory bandwidth. Example computations achieve and surpass 200 gigaflops/s of net application-level floating point work. In this article, we describe and derive the techniques used to reach this level of performance. In addition, we present comprehensive data on the accuracy and runtime behavior of the method.

The effects of procaine injections into MFB-LHA during self-stimulation of septum and barpress for food in the rat
Creators: name: Madryga, Frederick John
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The possibility that regions of the medial forebrain bundle-lateral hypothalamic area (MFB-LHA) are concerned with mediating the rewarding effect of electrical stimulation of the brain was examined by making unilateral injections of 2% procaine hydrochloride (2 ul) into this region during bar pressing for electrical stimulation in the septum or preoptic area. When the injection was made into the same side of the brain as the stimulating electrode, there was a strong suppression of self-stimulating rates as compared to the effect of isotonic saline injections, and the effect occurred with injections anywhere along the entire length of the MFH-LHA. The finding that the suppression was significantly less severe when the injections were made into the MFB-LHA on the side of the brain opposite to the electrode suggests that the suppression was not due to general disruptive effects. As a further control for nonspecific disturbances, similar injections were made in animals bar-pressing for food reward; the results showed that these injections suppressed bar-pressing for food but only when the injections were made into those regions of the MFB-LHA which have been shown to be involved in feeding behavior. These results suggest that the entire MFB-LHA is a part of a system mediating the rewarding effect of electrical stimulation of the septum and preoptic area.

description: The electric-field dependence of the magnetic structure of multiferroic MnWO4 has been investigated using spherical neutron polarimetry as a function of temperature. The application of an electric field drives the magnetic structure to a single chiral domain. The magnitude of the field required to do this is shown to increase with temperature. The link between the magnetic order and electric polarization is further demonstrated.

Unconscious influences on behaviour : the advantage of guessing consciously irretrievable information
Creators: name: Langsford, PB
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: A useful paradigm for investigating unconscious influences on performance derives from the study of explicit (conscious) and implicit (unconscious) memory, however direct and indirect tests used to measure these constructs are seldom process pure, and it is problematic to make firm conclusions about unconscious influences on the basis of these tests alone. Consequently, various methodologies for separating out the respective influence of unconscious processes have been devised. Two experiments are reported which employed a levels of processing (LOP) approach to manipulate encoding level at study and a unique method for accessing the effect of unconscious influences on direct test performance by analysing the correctness of responses reported as \guessed.\" Experiment 1 (n = 12) employed a direct (cued recall) test and was a preliminary attempt to establish the validity of the \"analysis of guessing\" methodology. Experiment 2 (n =36) employed comparable direct (cued recall) and indirect (stem completion) tests and investigated unconscious influences in a more rigorous manner by obtaining confidence ratings of recollection on a 5-point scale and accepting only zero ratings as reliably guessed. Analysis of correctly guessed responses showed that guessing stems of nonsemantically processed words enhanced direct test performance whereas guessing stems of semantically processed words had no affect on performance. Results are discussed in terms of subjects' unwitting resourcefulness at being able to \"retrieve\" words they cannot explicitly remember and the advantage offered by the analysis of guessing methodology over and above alternate methods for measuring unconscious influences."

description: We study the nonequilibrium phase transition in the two-dimensional contact process on a randomly diluted lattice by means of large-scale Monte-Carlo simulations for times up to $10^{10}$ and system sizes up to $8000 \times 8000$ sites. Our data provide strong evidence for the transition being controlled by an exotic infinite-randomness critical point with activated (exponential) dynamical scaling. We calculate the critical exponents of the transition and find them to be universal, i.e., independent of disorder strength. The Griffiths region between the clean and the dirty critical points exhibits power-law dynamical scaling with continuously varying exponents. We discuss the generality of our findings and relate them to a broader theory of rare region effects at phase transitions with quenched disorder. Our results are of importance beyond absorbing state transitions because according to a strong-disorder renormalization group analysis, our transition belongs to the universality class of the two-dimensional random transverse-field Ising model.

Differences between stellar and laboratory reaction cross sections

description: Nuclear reactions proceed differently in stellar plasmas than in the laboratory due to the thermal effects in the plasma. On one hand, a target nucleus is bombarded by projectiles distributed in energy with a distribution defined by the plasma temperature. The most relevant energies are low by nuclear physics standards and thus require an improved description of low-energy properties, such as optical potentials, required for the calculation of reaction cross sections. Recent studies of low-energy cross sections suggest the necessity of a modification of the proton optical potential. On the other hand, target nuclei are in thermal equilibrium with the plasma and this modifies their reaction cross sections. It is generally expected that this modification is larger for endothermic reactions. We show that there are many exceptions to this rule.

The determination of social need
Creators: name: Ife, J. W.
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: For the purposes of this study, social need is defined as need at an aggregate level, as expressed in statements of the form \Community X needs provision Y\". The assessment of social need is of central importance in the determination of resource allocation and \"needs studies\" are a major tool of social planners and researchers. Social indicators are also seen as being useful for determining social need. An examination of the literature relating to resource allocation reveals that there are some inadequacies in the way social need has been conceptualised and that it has often been understood from within an essentially positivist perspective as having some sort of independent existence and as being objectively measurable. Further conceptual exploration leads to an alternative formulation where the emphasis is on the act of definition of social need rather than on need per se. A model of social need statements is proposed based on three different forms of need definition which are referred to as population defined need care-taker defined need and inferred need. In any particular case of assessing the need for a specific service or the needs of a particular community there may be differences between these three forms of need definition. Several propositions are developed suggesting factors which may be significant in influencing judgements of social need and which may lead to differences between population defined caretaker defined and inferred need statements. These factors relate to the type of community the type of provision or service and the design and methodology of the needs study. An exploratory research study was designed to investigate these propositions about factors which may affect need judgements. Three different communities in southern Tasmania were selected and the \"needs\" for four different forms of social provision were studied in each area. The overall \"needs\" of each community were also investigated. The research was undertaken in order to deter-mine a picture of population defined caretaker defined and inferred need for each study area. Several different methodologies were used: a household survey a survey of caretakers (service providers and opinion leaders) analysis of census data analysis of service statistics and newspaper monitoring. The results of the research clarify the differences between the three forms of need statement. They indicate some of the factors which may be significant in contributing to these differences and in affecting the way social need is defined. It is concluded that the proposed model of need statements represents a potentially useful framework for the study of social need and on the basis of the research results the model is used to derive a number of suggestions for the design assessment and analysis of needs studies. A frame-work for community development based on the model is also proposed and further research questions arising from the study are identified."
Exemption clauses and implied terms in contracts
Creators: name: Livermore, J
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: The current state of the law relating to exemption clauses has been described, fittingly, as \unmanageably complex\". These complexities in part have stemmed from the past failure of the courts to recognise that examption clauses are an integral part of a contract and should not be ignored in assessing the rights and duties of the parties to the agreement. This thesis has two functions. One is to examine the role and function of exemption clauses in contracts and the choice of controls which can be imposed upon such clauses. The second function is to assess the desirability of reform of the terms implied chiefly by the Sale of Goods Acts and the Trade Practices Act in contracts. Since exemption clauses often exclude restrict or modify implied terms discussion of these terms has been drawn into the body of the thesis. A postscript has been added to include changes foreshadowed by the Trade Practices Amendment Bill 1985 (Clth.) which are relevant to the main parts of the thesis. The law as stated is that applying on January 1 1986."

description: We have obtained deep images in the BVRIJHKs bands of the field centered on QSO 1508+5714 (z_{em} =4.28) with the Suprime camera, FOCAS and MOIRCS cameras on Subaru telescope. We report here the detection of a B-dropout galaxy, which is $3\secpoint 5$ north-west of the QSO sightline. A photometric redshift analysis is presented to complement the color selection. Given the photometric properties of this object ($M = -22.2$, making $ L\approx 3 L^{\ast}$, if placed at its photometric redshift $z\sim 3.5$), as well as the S$\acute{e}$rsic index ($ n \sim 1$) derived from a 2-D imaging decomposition of the HST WFPC2 image taken in the $I_{F814}$ filter, the identified system is consistent with a massive disk galaxy at z>3. If confirmed, it would be one of the most distant massive disk galaxies known so far.

In search of wisdom
Creators: name: Martin, Philip J
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: 12 males and 12 females aged 65-94 years (mean age = 70.7 years) were asked in what ways they had become wiser since early adulthood. Themes identified were itemized in a questionnaire which was completed twice by 15 females and 15 males of 65-90 years (mean age = 73.53 years), being answered the second time as they would have at about twenty years of age. From the results items were selected for a \Wisdom\" Scale which was given to 42 young subjects (18-25 years mean age = 20 years) 53 middle-aged (40-55 years mean age = 46.51 years) and 48 elderly subjects (65-88 years mean age = 73.08 years). While the analyses on the \"Wisdom\" scale indicated no significant sex or social class effects there was a predicted age effect with the elderly scoring about 9% higher than young and middle-aged scoring intermediately. The Wisdom scale also correlated with the Boylin Gordon and Nehrke (1976) Ego-Integrity scale at approximately 0.60 overall and 0.66 for the elderly. Test-retest reliability for the \"Wisdom\" scale devised was found to be 0.911. The results are interpreted as indicating that certain aspects of acquired wisdom as perceived by the presently elderly had been identified but cultural and chronological generality cannot be presumed."

description: We show that Q-ball decay in Affleck-Dine baryogenesis models can account for dark matter when the annihilation cross-section is sufficiently enhanced to explain the positron and electron excesses observed by PAMELA, ATIC and PPB-BETS. For Affleck-Dine baryogenesis along a d = 6 flat direction, the reheating temperature is approximately 30 GeV and the Q-ball decay temperature is in the range 10-100 MeV. The LSPs produced by Q-ball decay annihilate down to the observed dark matter density if the cross-section is enhanced by a factor ~ 10^3 relative to the thermal relic cross-section.

description: We study thermodynamics of SU(3) gauge theory at fixed scales on the lattice, where we vary temperature by changing the temporal lattice size N_t=(Ta_t)^{-1}. In the fixed scale approach, finite temperature simulations are performed on common lattice spacings and spatial volumes. Consequently, we can isolate thermal effects in observables from other uncertainties, such as lattice artifact, renormalization factor, and spatial volume effect. Furthermore, in the EOS calculations, the fixed scale approach is able to reduce computational costs for zero temperature subtraction and parameter search to find lines of constant physics, which are demanding in full QCD simulations. As a test of the approach, we study the thermodynamics of the SU(3) gauge theory on isotropic and anisotropic lattices. In addition to the equation of state, we calculate the critical temperature and the static quark free energy at a fixed scale.
