MEDICAL DISCOURSE: STRATEGY AND TACTICS OF SPEECH BEHAVIOR OF PHYSICIANS.
Creators: name: Sapaeva, Dilfuza
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: The present article examines the strategic and tactical dimensions of speech behavior in professional medical discourse, with particular emphasis on the communicative functions fulfilled by physicians within the clinical environment. The study explores how speech acts, linguistic choices, and pragmatic structures are orchestrated by medical professionals to achieve specific interactional goals—namely, to diagnose, inform, persuade, and comfort patients. The analysis is grounded in a multidisciplinary approach, drawing from linguistics, cognitive science, and medical ethics, to elucidate the mechanisms through which doctors manage both the content and emotional tone of discourse. The findings reveal that effective physician communication necessitates a deliberate balance between medical precision and patient-centered adaptation, where speech strategies are employed not only to transmit biomedical information but also to shape perception, influence decision-making, and foster therapeutic trust. The paper contributes to a deeper understanding of how verbal and non-verbal tactics serve as critical tools in medical professionalism, ultimately influencing clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction.

description: The atmospheres of brown dwarfs have been long observed to exhibit a multitude of non-equilibrium chemical signatures and spectral variability across the L, T and Y spectral types. We aim to investigate the link between the large-scale 3D atmospheric dynamics and time-dependent chemistry in the brown dwarf regime, and to assess its impact on spectral variability. We couple the miniature kinetic chemistry module `mini-chem' to the Exo-FMS general circulation model (GCM). We then perform a series of idealised brown dwarf regime atmospheric models to investigate the dynamical 3D chemical structures produced by our simulations. The GCM output is post-processed using a 3D radiative-transfer model to investigate hemisphere-dependent spectral signatures and rotational variability. Our results show the expected strong non-equilibrium chemical behaviour brought on by vertical mixing as well as global spacial variations due to zonal flows. Chemical species are generally globally homogenised, showing variations of $\pm$10\% or less, dependent on pressure level, and follow the dynamical structures present in the atmosphere. However, we find localised storm regions and eddies can show higher contrasts, up to $\pm$100\%, in mixing ratio compared to the background global mean. This initial study represents another step in understanding the connection between three-dimensional atmospheric flows in brown dwarfs and their rich chemical inventories.

description: In this paper we investigate the attitudes toward risk of bettors in British horse races. The model we use allows us to go beyond the expected utility framework and to explore various alternative proposals by estimating a multinomial model on a 34,443‐race data set. We find that rank‐dependent utility models do not fit the data noticeably better than expected utility models. On the other hand, cumulative prospect theory has higher explanatory power. Our preferred estimates suggest a pattern of local risk aversion similar to that proposed by Friedman and Savage.

description: On finite metric graphs we consider Laplace operators, subject to various classes of non-self-adjoint boundary conditions imposed at graph vertices. We investigate spectral properties, existence of a Riesz basis of projectors and similarity transforms to self-adjoint Laplacians. Among other things, we describe a simple way how to relate the similarity transforms between Laplacians on certain graphs with elementary similarity transforms between matrices defining the boundary conditions.

description: A new clinical syndrome named Paediatric Inflammatory Multisystem Syndrome Temporally Associated with SARS-CoV-2 (PIMS-TS) has been described. This new disease is a leading cause of hospital and paediatric intensive care unit (PICU). It has been related to immunity dysregulation. Prospective-retrospective observational study to describe the innate cell signature and immunophenotype of children admitted to PICU because of PIMS-TS (from March 2020 to September 2020). The immunophenotype was done through the expression analysis of these proteins of mononuclear cells: CD64, CD18, CD11a and CD11b. They were compared with previous healthy controls and children admitted to PICU because of bacterial infection, viral infection and Kawasaki disease (KD). Two hundred and forty-seven children were studied: 183 healthy controls, 25 viral infections, 20 bacterial infections, 6 KD and 13 PIMS-TS. PIMT-TS showed the lowest percentage of lymphocytes and monocytes with higher relative numbers of CD4+ (p = .000). Monocytes and neutrophils in PIMS-TS showed higher levels of CD64 expression (p = .000). Also, CD11a and CD11b were highly expressed (p =,000). We observed a differential cell innate signature in PIMS-TS. These findings are consistent with a proinflammatory status (CD64 elevated expression) and lymphocyte trafficking to tissues (CD11a and CD11b). More studies should be carried out to confirm our results.

description: The acoustic-electric transformation in high-quality FeSe single crystals is studied. In zero magnetic field we observe an abnormally strong electromagnetic radiation induced by a transverse elastic wave. Usually a radiation of such intensity and polarization is observed only in metals subjected to a high magnetic field (the radiation is caused by the Hall current). We argue that in FeSe in zero magnetic field it is caused by the piezomagnetic effect which is most probably of dynamical origin. We find that the piezomagnetism survives under the transition from the normal to superconducting state. In the superconducting state the electromagnetic signal decreases with decreasing temperature that is connected with the change in the London penetration depth.

What Powers the Most Relativistic Jets? I: BL Lacs

Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)

description: The dramatic relativistic jets pointing directly at us in BL Lac objects can be well modelled by bulk motion beaming of synchrotron self-Compton emission powered by a low Eddington fraction accretion flow. Nearly 500 of these AGN are seen in the 2nd Fermi Large Area Telescope catalogue of AGN. We combine the jet models which describe individual spectra with the expected jet parameter scalings with mass and mass accretion rate to predict the expected number of Fermi detected sources given the number densities of AGN from cosmological simulations. We select only sources with Eddington scaled mass accretion rate $< 0.01$ (i.e. radiatively inefficient flows), and include cooling, orientation effects, and the effects of absorption from pair production on the extragalactic IR background. These models overpredict the number of Fermi detected BL Lacs by a factor of 1000! This clearly shows that one of the underlying assumptions is incorrect, almost certainly that jets do not scale simply with mass and accretion rate. The most plausible additional parameter which can affect the region producing the Fermi emission is black hole spin. We can reproduce the observed numbers of BL Lacs if such relativistic jets are only produced by the highest spin ($a_*>0.8$) black holes, in agreement with the longstanding spin-jet paradigm. This also requires that high spins are intrinsically rare, as predicted by the cosmological simulations for growing black hole mass via chaotic (randomly aligned) accretion episodes, where only the most massive black holes have high spin due to black hole-black hole mergers.

Cruise report, East Coast sea surface slick sampling, 1 - 6 October 2018
Publisher: name: GNS Science
Year: 2018

description: A sea surface slick sampling survey was undertaken in the southern East Coast region of the North Island, New Zealand, from 1 – 6 October 2018 using the vessel Nereus charted from Star Offshore Service, Napier. In total nine sites were visited and 14 samples (excluding water and air blanks) were collected. The survey used standard slick sampling kits (General Oceanics Teflon Oil Sampling Net). When weather conditions permitted a Phantom 4 Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) with a live feed to the vessel was used to locate possible slicks at each site. Visual inspection of the samples at the GNS office after the voyage indicated that seven of the samples contained some organic matter and they were sent to Applied Petroleum Technology (APT), Norway, for geochemical analysis.

description: Atherosclerosis is a progressive disease that causes vascular remodeling that can be positive or negative. The evolution of arterial wall thickening and changes in lumen size under current "standard of care" in different arterial beds is unclear. The purpose of this study was to examine arterial remodeling and progression/regression of atherosclerosis in aorta and carotid arteries of individuals at risk for atherosclerosis normalized over a 1-year period. In this study, 28 patients underwent at least 2 black-blood in vivo cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) scans of aorta and carotids over a one-year period (Mean 17.8 ± 7.5 months). Clinical risk profiles for atherosclerosis and medications were documented and patients were followed by their referring physicians under current "standard of care" guidelines. Carotid and aortic wall lumen areas were matched across the time-points from cross-sectional images. The wall area increased by 8.67%, 10.64%, and 13.24% per year (carotid artery, thoracic aorta and abdominal aorta respectively, p < 0.001). The lumen area of the abdominal aorta increased by 4.97% per year (p = 0.002), but the carotid artery and thoracic aorta lumen areas did not change significantly. The use of statin therapy did not change the rate of increase of wall area of carotid artery, thoracic and abdominal aorta, but decreased the rate of change of lumen area of carotid artery (-3.08 ± 11.34 vs. 0.19 ± 12.91 p < 0.05). Results of this study of multiple vascular beds indicated that different vascular locations exhibited varying progression of atherosclerosis and remodeling as monitored by CMR.

Impact of quasi-periodic and steep-spectrum timing noise on the measurement of pulsar timing parameters

description: Timing noise in pulsars is often modelled with a Fourier-basis Gaussian process that follows a power law with periodic boundary conditions on the observation time, $T_\mathrm{span}$. However the actual noise processes can extend well below $1/T_\mathrm{span}$, and many pulsars are known to exhibit quasi-periodic timing noise. In this paper we investigate several adaptions that try to account for these differences between the observed behaviour and the simple power-law model. Firstly, we propose to include an additional term that models the quasi-periodic spin-down variations known to be present in many pulsars. Secondly, we show that a Fourier basis of $1/2T_\mathrm{span}$ can be more suited for estimating long term timing parameters such as the spin frequency second derivative (F2), and is required when the exponent of the power spectrum is greater than ~4. We also implement a Bayesian version of the generalised least squares `Cholesky' method which has different limitations at low frequency, but find that there is little advantage over Fourier-basis methods. We apply our quasi-periodic spin down model to a sample of pulsars with known spin-down variations and show that this improves parameter estimation of F2 and proper motion for the most pathological cases, but in general the results are consistent with a power-law model. The models are all made available through the run_enterprise software package.

description: The existence of a radiation bystander effect, in which non-irradiated cells respond to signals from irradiated cells, is well established. To understand early signaling and gene regulation in bystander cells, we used a bio-informatics approach, measuring global gene expression at 30 minutes and signaling pathways between 30 minutes and 4 hours after exposure to α-particles in IMR-90 fibroblasts. We used whole human genome microarrays and real time quantitative PCR to measure and validate gene expression. Microarray analysis was done using BRB-Array Tools; pathway and ontology analyses were done using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis and PANTHER, respectively. We studied signaling in irradiated and bystander cells using immunoblotting and semi-quantitative image analysis. Gene ontology suggested signal transduction and transcriptional regulation responding 30 minutes after treatment affected cell structure, motility and adhesion, and interleukin synthesis. We measured time-dependent expression of genes controlled by the NF-κB pathway; matrix metalloproteinases 1 and 3;
chemokine ligands 2, 3 and 5 and interleukins 1β, 6 and 33. There was an increased response of this set of genes 30 minutes after treatment and another wave of induction at 4 hours. We investigated AKT-GSK3β signaling and found both AKT and GSK3β are hyper-phosphorylated 30 minutes after irradiation and this effect is maintained through 4 hours. In bystander cells, a similar response was seen with a delay of 30 minutes. We proposed a network model where the observed decrease in phosphorylation of β-catenin protein after GSK3β dependent inactivation can trigger target gene expression at later times after radiation exposure These results are the first to show that the radiation induced bystander signal induces a widespread gene expression response at 30 minutes after treatment and these changes are accompanied by modification of signaling proteins in the PI3K-AKT-GSK3β pathway.

description: Clinicians and specialty societies often emphasize the potential importance of natural light for quality care of critically ill patients, but few studies have examined patient outcomes associated with exposure to natural light. We hypothesized that receiving care in an intensive care unit (ICU) room with a window might improve outcomes for critically ill patients with acute brain injury. This was a secondary analysis of a prospective cohort study. Seven ICU rooms had windows, and five ICU rooms did not. Admission to a room was based solely on availability. We analyzed data from 789 patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) admitted to the neurological ICU at our hospital from August 1997 to April 2006. Patient information was recorded prospectively at the time of admission, and patients were followed up to 1 year to assess mortality and functional status, stratified by whether care was received in an ICU room with a window. Of 789 SAH patients, 455 (57.7%) received care in a window room and 334 (42.3%) received care in a nonwindow room. The two groups were balanced with regard to all patient and clinical characteristics. There was no statistical difference in modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score at hospital discharge, 3 months or 1 year (44.8% with mRS scores of 0 to 3 with window rooms at hospital discharge versus 47.2% with the same scores in nonwindow rooms at hospital discharge; adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 1.01, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 0.67 to 1.50, P = 0.98; 62.7% versus 63.8% at 3 months, aOR 0.85, 95% CI 0.58 to 1.26, P = 0.42; 73.6% versus 72.5% at 1 year, aOR 0.78, 95% CI 0.51 to 1.19, P = 0.25). There were also no differences in any secondary outcomes, including length of mechanical ventilation, time until the patient was able to follow commands in the ICU, need for percutaneous gastrostomy tube or tracheotomy, ICU and hospital length of stay, and hospital, 3-month and 1-year mortality. The presence of a window in an ICU room did not improve outcomes for critically ill patients with SAH admitted to the ICU. Further studies are needed to determine whether other groups of critically ill patients, particularly those without acute brain injury, derive benefit from natural light.

description: The COVID-19 pandemic has necessitated the need to rapidly make public health decisions. We systematically evaluated SARS-CoV-2 seropositivity to understand local COVID-19 epidemiology and support evidence-based public health decision making. Residual blood samples were collected for SARS-CoV-2 receptor binding domain (RBD) IgG testing over a 1–5 day period monthly from 26 February 2021–9 July 2021 from six clinical laboratories across the province of Alberta, Canada. Monthly crude and adjusted (for age and gender) seropositivity were calculated. Results were linked to provincial administrative, laboratory, and vaccine databases. 60,632 individual blood samples were tested. Vaccination data were available for 98.8% of samples. Adjusted RBD IgG positivity rose from 11.9% (95% confidence interval [CI] 11.9–12.0%) in March 2021 to 70.2% (95% CI 70.2–70.3%) in July 2021 (p < .0001). Seropositivity rose from 9.4% (95% CI 9.3–9.4%) in March 2021 to 20.2% (95% CI 20.1–20.2%) in July 2021 in unvaccinated Albertans. Unvaccinated seropositive individuals were from geographic areas with significantly (p < .001) lower median household income, lower proportion of married/common-law relationships, larger average household size and higher proportions of visible minorities compared to seronegative unvaccinated individuals. In July 2021, the age groups with the lowest and highest seropositivity in unvaccinated Albertans were those ≥80 years (12.0%, 95% CI 5.3–18.6%) and 20–29 years (24.2%, 95% CI 19.6–28.8%), respectively. Of seropositive unvaccinated individuals, 50.2% (95% CI 45.9–54.5%) had no record of prior SARS-CoV-2 molecular testing. Longitudinal surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 seropositivity with data linkage is valuable for decision-making during the pandemic.

description: We complete the analytical determination, at the 4th post-Newtonian (4PN) approximation, of the conservative dynamics of gravitationally interacting two-point-mass systems. This completion is obtained by resolving the infra-red ambiguity which had blocked a previous 4PN calculation [P.Jaranowski and G.Schäfer, Phys. Rev. D 87, 081503(R) (2013)] by taking into account the 4PN breakdown of the usual near-zone expansion due to infinite-range tail-transported temporal correlations found long ago [L.Blanchet and T.Damour, Phys. Rev. D 37, 1410 (1988)]. This leads to a Poincaré-invariant 4PN-accurate effective action for two masses, which mixes instantaneous interaction terms (described by a usual Hamiltonian) with a (time-symmetric) nonlocal-in-time interaction.

description: New National Institutes of Health policies call for expansion of practice-based research to improve the clinical research enterprise and facilitate dissemination of evidence-based medicine. This paper describes organizational strategies that influence clinicians' decisions to participate in clinical research. We reviewed the literature and interviewed over 200 clinicians and stakeholders. The most common barriers to community clinician participation in clinical research relate to beliefs that clinical research is too burdensome and has little benefit for the participating clinician or patient. We identified a number of approaches healthcare organizations can use to encourage clinicians to participate in research, including an outreach campaign to promote the benefits of clinical research; selection of study topics of interest to clinicians; establishment and enforcement of a set of research principles valuing the clinician and patient; development of a transparent schedule of reimbursement for research tasks; provision of technological and technical assistance to practices as needed; and promotion of a sense of community among clinicians involved in practice-based research. Many types of existing healthcare organizations could provide the technical and intellectual assistance community clinicians need to participate in clinical research. Multiple approaches are possible.

description: In a recently published letter [S. W. Kim, T. Sagawa, S. DeLiberato, and M. Ueda, PRL 106, 070401 (2011)] the influence of particle statistics on extractable work in the Szilard engine was discussed. We point out that the expressions given there suggest no work extraction is possible in the low temperature limit if more than two particles are used and thus are not optimal. We argue that the optimal extractable work is in general higher and in particular non-decreasing in the number of particles.

description: We present data on the electrical transport properties of highly-doped silicon-on-insulator quantum dots under the effect of pulsed magnetic fields up to 48 T. At low field intensities, B<7 T, we observe a strong modification of the conductance due to the destruction of weak localization whereas at higher fields, where the magnetic field length becomes comparable to the effective Bohr radius of phosphorous in silicon, a strong decrease in conductance is demonstrated. Data in the high and low electric field bias regimes are then compared to show that close to the Coulomb blockade edge magnetically-induced quenching to single donors in the quantum dot is achieved at about 40 T.

description: A presentation given at the Semantic Web in Libraries (SWIB) conference on November 28, 2022. The presentation focuses on what data quality even is, which quality procedures we have at the Royal Library of Belgium and how using your data will likely reveal (subtle) more quality issues. I briefly present the BELTRANS research project and how it motivated our Librarian-In-The-Loop workflow, in which a librarian is presented with CSV files of possibly wrong data. The incorrectness is not apparent in a record, but is revealed when displaying the record next to another record linked via schema:sameAs. The librarian can indicate what is wrong and correct with different CSV files which are used to correct the data in a semi-automatic fashion. We present the use case, the workflow and lessons learned!
Strategies of Nitrosomonas europaea 19718 to counter low dissolved oxygen and high nitrite concentrations

description: Nitrosomonas europaea is a widely studied chemolithoautotrophic ammonia oxidizing bacterium. While significant work exists on the ammonia oxidation pathway of N. europaea, its responses to factors such as dissolved oxygen limitation or sufficiency or exposure to high nitrite concentrations, particularly at the functional gene transcription level are relatively sparse. The principal goal of this study was to investigate responses at the whole-cell activity and gene transcript levels in N. europaea 19718 batch cultures, which were cultivated at different dissolved oxygen and nitrite concentrations. Transcription of genes coding for principal metabolic pathways including ammonia oxidation (amoA), hydroxylamine oxidation (hao), nitrite reduction (nirK) and nitric oxide reduction (norB) were quantitatively measured during batch growth, at a range of DO concentrations (0.5, 1.5 and 3.0 mg O2/L). Measurements were also conducted during growth at 1.5 mg O2/L in the presence of 280 mg-N/L of externally added nitrite. Several wide ranging responses to DO limitation and nitrite toxicity were observed in N. europaea batch cultures. In contrast to our initial hypothesis, exponential phase mRNA concentrations of both amoA and hao increased with decreasing DO concentrations, suggesting a mechanism to metabolize ammonia and hydroxylamine more effectively under DO limitation. Batch growth in the presence of 280 mg nitrite-N/L resulted in elevated exponential phase nirK and norB mRNA concentrations, potentially to promote utilization of nitrite as an electron acceptor and to detoxify nitrite. This response was in keeping with our initial hypothesis and congruent with similar responses in heterotrophic denitrifying bacteria. Stationary phase responses were distinct from exponential phase responses in most cases, suggesting a strong impact of ammonia availability and metabolism on responses to DO limitation and nitrite toxicity. In general, whole-cell responses to DO limitation or nitrite toxicity, such as sOUR or nitrite reduction to nitric oxide (NO) did not parallel the corresponding mRNA (nirK) profiles, suggesting differences between the gene transcription and enzyme translation or activity levels. The results of this study show that N. europaea possesses specific mechanisms to cope with growth under low DO concentrations and high nitrite concentrations. These mechanisms are additionally influenced by the physiological growth state of N. europaea cultures and are possibly geared to enable more efficient substrate utilization or nitrite detoxification.
