Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2019

description: The objective of the study was to assess the Effect of Credit Risk Management on the Profitability Performance of Commercial Bank of Ethiopia proxied by ROA and ROE, The study used a secondary data for the period between 2000 to 2018 for nineteen(19) years.The data was collected from CBE MIS Department,CBE Annual Report and National Bank of Ethiopia (NBE). The collected data was analyzed by using Time Series data regression model and EView7 software to regress the data , the result showed that credit risk management which is measured by non- performing loan to total loan ratio, and management efficiency that is measured by the ratio of operating expense to total income have negative and significant effect on both dependent variables (ROA and ROE).The other independent variables (CAR,TLTA,NII&LR) are insignificat.The study recommended that the bank’s credit risk management needs strong attention & follow up regarding performer capacetiy building and to review their credit policey & procedure in order to minimize high incidence of NPL.

description: We report on observations of thermal motion of a single, Doppler-cooled ion along the axis of a linear radio-frequency quadrupole trap. We show that for a harmonic potential the thermal occupation of energy levels leads to Gaussian distribution of the ion's axial position. The dependence of the spatial thermal spread on the trap potential is used for precise calibration of our imaging system's point spread function and sub-milliKelvin thermometry. We employ this technique to investigate the laser detuning dependence of the Doppler temperature.

description: Η οστεοαρθρίτιδα (ΟΑ) των κάτω άκρων είναι μια συχνή πάθηση που επηρεάζει σημαντικά την ποιότητα ζωής των ασθενών, προσδίδοντας αυξημένα επίπεδα πόνου και μειωμένη λειτουργικότητα. Η ετερογένεια των συμπτωμάτων, της εξέλιξης της νόσου και του πληθυσμού που διαγιγνώσκεται με την πάθηση, καθιστά ιδιαίτερα δύσκολη διαδικασία τη πρόληψη και τη θεραπεία της πάθησης. Η παρούσα εργασία έχει ως στόχο την ανάλυση και σύνοψη των δεδομένων της βιβλιογραφίας, σχετικά με τις στρατηγικές πρόληψης και θεραπείας της ΟΑ των κάτω άκρων, με έμφαση στο ρόλο της άσκησης. Η απώλεια βάρους και η πρόληψη της αύξησης βάρους αποτελούν σημαντικές στρατηγικές για την πρόληψη και διαχείριση της ΟΑ. Η πρωτογενής πρόληψη τραυματισμού του γόνατος μέσω προγραμμάτων νευρομυϊκής προπόνησης και η δευτερογενής πρόληψη με τον εντοπισμό ασθενών υψηλού κινδύνου και την προσαρμογή των στρατηγικών διαχείρισης είναι επίσης κρίσιμες. Η εξατομικευμένη φροντίδα υγείας (ΕΦΥ) έχει τη δυνατότητα να βελτιώσει περαιτέρω την πρόληψη της ΟΑ. Όσον αφορά τις θεραπευτικές προσεγγίσεις, η άσκηση, οι φαρμακολογικές θεραπείες, η χειρουργική επέμβαση και οι θεραπείες εναλλακτικής ιατρικής μπορούν να βελτιώσουν τα συμπτώματα και την ποιότητα ζωής των ασθενών με ΟΑ. Συμπερασματικά, η πρόληψη και η θεραπεία της ΟΑ των κάτω άκρων απαιτούν μια πολυπαραγοντική προσέγγιση, με την άσκηση να διαδραματίζει κεντρικό ρόλο τόσο στην πρόληψη όσο και στη διαχείριση της νόσου.
description: Osteoarthritis (OA) of the lower limbs is a common condition that significantly affects patients' quality of life, resulting in increased levels of pain and reduced functionality. The heterogeneity of symptoms, disease progression and the population diagnosed with the condition makes prevention and treatment of the condition a particularly challenging process. This paper aims to analyze and summarize the literature data on strategies for the prevention and treatment of lower limb OA, with an emphasis on the role of exercise. Weight loss and prevention of weight gain are important strategies for the prevention and management of OA. Primary prevention of knee injury through neuromuscular training programs and secondary prevention by identifying high-risk patients and tailoring management strategies are also critical. Personalized health care (PHC) has the potential to further improve OA prevention. In terms of therapeutic approaches, exercise, pharmacological therapies, surgery and alternative medicine treatments can improve symptoms and quality of life for patients with OA. In conclusion, the prevention and treatment of lower limb OA requires a multifactorial approach, with exercise playing a central role in both prevention and management of the disease.

Creators: name: Beza Yilma
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2017

description: Background: - Adolescence is a nutritionally vulnerable period of life because of the dramatic changes in physical growth and development and the change of life style and food habits that affect both nutrient intake and needs. Inadequate quality and quantity of food are the prime determinants of nutrition. However studies are limited regarding adolescent nutrition and there is very little information on the adequacy of dietary intake among adolescents.

Objective: - To estimate the level of macro and micro nutrient intake and to evaluate prevalence of inadequacy among adolescent girls 10-19 years.

Method; - A community based cross-sectional study was conducted in Damot Gale district, Woliyta zone, SNNP Region. Data were collected from 288 female adolescents after random selection from six kebeles. Face to face interview was conducted using Repeated multiple pass 24-hour dietary recall method. Data on all foods and drinks consumed by the adolescents in the previous 24 hours before interview was obtained

description: We study the thermoelectric properties of three-dimensional topological insulators with many holes (or pores) in the bulk. We show that at high density of these holes the thermoelectric figure of merit ZT can be large due to the contribution of the conducting surfaces and the suppressed phonon thermal conductivity. The maximum efficiency can be tuned by an induced gap in the surface states dispersion through tunneling or external magnetic fields. The large values of ZT, much higher than unity for reasonable parameters, make this system a strong candidate for applications in heat management of nanodevices, especially at low temperatures.

Rituximab in Sclerosi Multipla e Neuromielite Ottica
Creators: name: MAIETTA, ILARIA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Genova
Year: 2021

description: La Sclerosi Multipla � definita come una malattia complessa, causata
dall?interazione di molti fattori eziologici, clinici, genetici ed ambientali. Ad oggi, in
letteratura, gli studi osservazionali che possano offrire un quadro chiaro del
beneficio a lungo termine che l?introduzione di terapie farmacologiche ha apportato
nel curare questa patologia, hanno dato risultati contrastanti. Nel Centro
Regionale per la Sclerosi Multipla Spedali Civili di Brescia - Presidio di Montichiari
(BS) sono state raccolte ed inserite in un database (DB) informazioni sulla storia di
malattia di 1034 pazienti. In particolare, prima del 1985 un arruolamento
retrospettivo dei pazienti � stato eseguito, mentre dopo il 1985 � stata attuata una
raccolta sistematica dei dati.
Scopo del progetto era monitorare l?evoluzione clinica della malattia confrontando i
dati relativi alle terapie farmacologiche disponibili in Italia. Durante l?analisi
statistica di questi dati verranno anche tenuti in considerazione i principali fattori
clinici legati al allo sviluppo e alla progressione della Sclerosi Multipla,
permettendo cos� una valutazione clinica dei risultati ottenuti.
In quest?ottica il progetto della mia ricerca si � strutturato in maniera specifica
prendendo in esame un farmaco off-label, Rituximab largamente utilizzato sia per
la Sclerosi Multipla che per la Neuromielite Ottica.
Il progetto si � trasformato nella creazione di due database di pazienti (uno per ala
SM ed uno per la NMO) in trattamento con Rituximab nei vari centri italiani, per II
avere informazioni su safety e efficacy del farmaco su una coorte consistente di
pazienti.
I database sono stati gestiti dalla sezione di Biostatistica dell?Universit� degli Studi
di Genova (Prof.ssa Sormani), Centro Coordinatore dello studio. Ogni centro
rimane proprietario dei propri dati e avevano la possibilit� di aderire ad altre analisi
proposte dai membri del gruppo e richiedere un?analisi specifica dei dati del
proprio centro.
Il nostro � stato uno studio osservazionale retrospettivo non interventistico, con
una estensione prospettica della durata di 2 anni.

description: We show that ripples on the surface of deep water which are driven parametrically by monochromatic vertical vibration represent ensembles of oscillating solitons, or quasi-particles, rather than waves. Horizontal mobility of oscillons determines the broadening of spectral lines and transitions from chaos to regular patterns. It is found that microscopic additions of proteins to water dramatically affect the oscillon mobility and drive transitions from chaos to order. The shape of the oscillons in physical space determines the shape of the frequency spectra of the surface ripple.

Acute Physiological, Metabolic and Perceptual Responses to different High-Intensity Interval Training formats
Creators: name: PANASCI', MARCO
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Genova
Year: 2021

description: INTRODUCTION
Research in sport and exercise science suggested that both placebo and nocebo can influence sport performance (1), with effect ranging from small to moderate (2). Most of studies proposed as treatment nutritional ergogenic aids or peripheral stimulation. However, a more ecological approach lowered into a conventional training session, could exploit some parts of the training itself to administer placebo/nocebo effect. The aim of the present study was to test the effect on the running performance of a placebo/nocebo treatment consisting in conditioning manipulation plus verbal suggestion.

METHODS
Thirty-nine active young students (mean age 22�0.9) were randomly assigned to CONTROL group, PLACEBO group and NOCEBO group. The experiment consisted in 3 sessions. During TEST Session participants performed the Cooper test to evaluate the cardiorespiratory fitness. During SESSION 1, they performed a high intensity interval training (HIIT) protocol till exhaustion (30s all-out, with 2 min of passive recovery) preceded by a conventional warm-up (20min, running and dynamic stretching). During SESSION 2, warm up consisted in the FIFA 11+ (20min, running and balance exercises) (3), and was used as conditioning treatment. Participants? expectancy about warm-up efficacy in not-changing/improving/worsening the following HITT performance was manipulated through verbal suggestion in CONTROL/PLACEBO/NOCEBO groups. At last, during the HIIT rest-period a surreptitious manipulation, consisting in none/positive/negative verbal feedback about the current performance, was administered to CONTROL/PLACEBO/NOCEBO group. The time to exhaustion (TTE) and total running distance (TRD) were considered as performance outcome. The rate of perceived exertion (RPE), maximal heart rate (HR) and blood lactate ([LA+]) were used to determine whether participants reached the exhaustion. ANOVA was applied to evaluate normally-distributed parameters, whilst non parametric analysis were applied to not-normally distributed data.

RESULTS
TTE and TRD values of the PLACEBO group significantly increased in SESSION 2 with respect to SESSION 1 whilst they significantly decreased in NOCEBO group (p<0.05 and p<0.01, respectively). Further, TTE (p<0.05) and TRD (p<0.01) in SESSION 2 of the PLACEBO group was significantly higher than those of NOCEBO group. No differences appeared in the CONTROL group. No differences among groups and session were found in RPE, HR and [LA+].

CONCLUSION
The innovative placebo/nocebo treatment proposed in this study succeeded to improve/worsen the running performance of active young adult. These results provide insight on the interaction between the athlete?s cognitive domain and the running performance and pave the way for the application of combined cognitive/motor strategies during training.

In-plane deformation of a triangulated surface model with metric degrees of freedom

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Using the canonical Monte Carlo simulation technique, we study a Regge calculus model on triangulated spherical surfaces. The discrete model is statistical mechanically defined with the variables $X$, $g$ and $ρ$, which denote the surface position in ${\bf R}^3$, the metric on a two-dimensional surface $M$ and the surface density of $M$, respectively. The metric $g$ is defined only by using the deficit angle of the triangles in {$M$}. This is in sharp contrast to the conventional Regge calculus model, where {$g$} depends only on the edge length of the triangles. We find that the discrete model in this paper undergoes a phase transition between the smooth spherical phase at $b to infty$ and the crumpled phase at $b to 0$, where $b$ is the bending rigidity. The transition is of first-order and identified with the one observed in the conventional model without the variables $g$ and $ρ$. This implies that the shape transformation transition is not influenced by the metric degrees of freedom. It is also found that the model undergoes a continuous transition of in-plane deformation. This continuous transition is reflected in almost discontinuous changes of the surface area of $M$ and that of $X(M)$, where the surface area of $M$ is conjugate to the density variable $ρ$.

description: Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising add-on therapy to the current standard of care for patients with glioblastoma (GBM). The traditional explanation of the anti-cancer PDT effects involves the PDT-induced generation of a singlet oxygen in the GBM cells, which causes tumor cell death and microvasculature collapse. Recently, new vascular mechanisms of PDT associated with opening of the blood–brain barrier (OBBB) and the activation of functions of the meningeal lymphatic vessels have been discovered. In this review, we highlight the emerging trends and future promises of immunotherapy for brain tumors and discuss PDT-OBBB as a new niche and an important informative platform for the development of innovative pharmacological strategies for the modulation of brain tumor immunity and the improvement of immunotherapy for GBM.

description: PDS 144 is a pair of Herbig Ae stars that are separated by 5.35" on the sky. It has previously been shown to have an A2Ve Herbig Ae star viewed at 83\circ inclination as its northern member and an A5Ve Herbig Ae star as its southern member. Direct imagery revealed a disk occulting PDS 144 N - the first edge-on disk observed around a Herbig Ae star. The lack of an obvious disk in direct imagery suggested PDS 144 S might be viewed face-on or not physically associated with PDS 144 N. Multi-epoch Hubble Space Telescope imagery of PDS 144 with a 5 year baseline demonstrates PDS 144 N & S are comoving and have a common proper motion with TYC 6782-878-1. TYC 6782-878-1 has previously been identified as a member of Upper Sco sub-association A at d = 145 \pm 2 pc with an age of 5-10 Myr. Ground-based imagery reveals jets and a string of Herbig-Haro knots extending 13' (possibly further) which are aligned to within 7\circ \pm 6\circ on the sky. By combining proper motion data and the absence of a dark mid-plane with radial velocity data, we measure the inclination of PDS 144 S to be i = 73\circ \pm 7\circ. The radial velocity of the jets from PDS 144 N & S indicates they, and therefore their disks, are misaligned by 25\circ \pm 9\circ. This degree of misalignment is similar to that seen in T Tauri wide binaries.

(Figs 2A–C, 10B)
 Falsomordellistena (Palaeostena) eocenica Kubisz, 2003: 186. Holotype:
J, Baltic amber.
 Material examined. One specimen, PřfUK107, obtained from Jonas Damzen (original number JDC 8742):? Rovno amber. The specimen conforms with the description and figures of P. eocenica and is thus considered to be conspecific. It represents the first possible record of this species from Rovno amber.
 Comments on identification. The author compared this species with extant members of Falsomordellistena because of the similar shape of their antennomeres. However, antennae in Mordellidae are often similar in different genera (see below for an example of a different diagnosis of Baltistena concava sp. nov.). In addition, in males of species of Falsomordellistena antennomeres V–X vary greatly in shape (from feebly serrate to filiform) and are usually 2× as long as wide or longer (e.g., NOMURA 1967, 1975), while in Palaeostena eocenica they are only ‘one half longer than wide’, which must be considered a difference rather than a similarity.
 KUBISZ (2003) also lists several characters of P. eocenica, in which this species should differ from all extant Falsomordellistena species: eyes without interfacetal setae; peculiar shape of maxillary palpomere IV (surprisingly, its length is compared with the length of basal antennomeres, not palpomeres); asymmetry of metatibial spurs; absence of body pubescence; and body size. Only the last three of these differences are included in the diagnosis of this species, as according to the author, they delimit P. eocenica from all known species of Falsomordellistena. In summary, KUBISZ (2003) states that P. eocenica differs from extant species of Falsomordellistena in at least five characters usually used for delimiting genera and therefore its inclusion into this extant genus would invalidate the generic diagnosis.
 Accepting the validity of this species and the fact that its generic assignment to Falsomordellistena is not supported by the given diagnosis, the subgenus Palaeostena is here raised to generic status.

Indeed they have shown a tremendous potential when solving tasks involving image analysisThe problem of deep learning is its requirement for huge datasets, nonetheless, DL approaches have proved to be helpful in the domain of medical imaging as well. Automated segmentation and classification in different biomedical tasks have proven to be faster and more cost effective.

In this thesis we study deep learning approaches used for segmentation and classification of different radiological images mainly CT Scans, MRI Scans and CXR images. In particular, we explored some issues like the multi-modality, and the small dataset problem

We first discuss about how the small datasets can be exploited to improve the performance of the deep model in the proposed architectures and then in the next work we train the model with multi modal data consisting of both CT and MRI images together and consider the corresponding opposite modality of CT and MRI as missing data problem. We use Cycle-GAN to generate the synthetic data for the missing data and further train the model with original and synthetic data together.

Then we focus on the classification of COVID exploiting the multi-modality data available. We proposed an architecture that is capable of handling multi modal data and extract feature representation from available modalities before concatenation and further use them for final classification. Then we exploit joint learning to train a small dataset from scratch.

Finally, this thesis concludes with open questions that may benefit from future work. This thesis demonstrate the potential role of CNNs to address the tasks of segmentation and classification.

Port Rail Shunting Optimization Problems
Creators: name: ASTA, VERONICA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Genova
Year: 2021

description: The work focuses on a particular section of the intermodal chain of freight transportation, which is the link between rail and sea transportation modes and happens in the maritime port area. Among this field, the study deals with the management of rail operations, called here rail shunting operations, that have to be performed in the port area.
Two optimization problems arises in this context. The first concerns the scheduling of the rail shunting operations, here called Port Rail Shunting Scheduling Problem (PRSSP). The second deals with the re-scheduling of the same operations in case of unpredictable events, here called Port Rail Shunting Re-Scheduling Problem (PRSRP). After a literature overview on the concerning studies, we concentrate on an innovative way to use the well known space-time networks as solution approach structure for both the above mentioned problems. The innovative structure has been called operation-time-space network and is deeply analyzed in a dedicated chapter.
A network flow model based on an operation-time-space network for solving PRSSP has been developed. It has been tested using random generated instances providing good results. The same model has been extended in order to solve PRSRP and it has been tested giving good results as well.
Finally, the models have been used to solve the real case of a port area located in Italy in order to test the applicability of the developed models to a real context. The tests have been executed using real data and provided good results confirming the possibility to apply the proposed approach in similar real problems.

description: The use of intense tailored light fields is the perfect tool to achieve ultrafast control of electronic properties in quantum materials. Among them, Mott insulators are materials in which strong electron-electron interactions drive the material into an insulating phase. When shining a Mott insulator with a strong laser pulse, the electric field may induce the creation of doublon-hole pairs, triggering a photoinduced transition into a metallic state. In this paper, we take advantage of the threshold character of this photoinduced transition and we propose a setup that consists of a midinfrared laser pulse and a train of short pulses separated by a half period of the midinfrared with alternating phases. By varying the time delay between the two pulses and the internal carrier envelope phase of the short pulses, we achieve control of the phase transition, which leaves its fingerprint at its high harmonic spectrum.
How the Landscape of Random Job Shop Scheduling Instances Depends on the Ratio of Jobs to Machines

description: We characterize the search landscape of random instances of the job shop scheduling problem (JSP). Specifically, we investigate how the expected values of (1) backbone size, (2) distance between near-optimal schedules, and (3) makespan of random schedules vary as a function of the job to machine ratio (N/M). For the limiting cases N/M approaches 0 and N/M approaches infinity we provide analytical results, while for intermediate values of N/M we perform experiments. We prove that as N/M approaches 0, backbone size approaches 100%, while as N/M approaches infinity the backbone vanishes. In the process we show that as N/M approaches 0 (resp. N/M approaches infinity), simple priority rules almost surely generate an optimal schedule, providing theoretical evidence of an "easy-hard-easy" pattern of typical-case instance difficulty in job shop scheduling. We also draw connections between our theoretical results and the "big valley" picture of JSP landscapes.

description: The Lick AGN Monitoring Project 2011 observing campaign was carried out over the course of 11 weeks in Spring 2011. Here we present the first results from this program, a measurement of the broad-line reverberation lag in the Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk 50. Combining our data with supplemental observations obtained prior to the start of the main observing campaign, our dataset covers a total duration of 4.5 months. During this time, Mrk 50 was highly variable, exhibiting a maximum variability amplitude of a factor of 4 in the U-band continuum and a factor of 2 in the H-beta line. Using standard cross-correlation techniques, we find that H-beta and H-gamma lag the V-band continuum by tau_cen = 10.64(-0.93,+0.82) and 8.43(-1.28,+1.30) days, respectively, while the lag of He II 4686 is unresolved. The H-beta line exhibits a symmetric velocity-resolved reverberation signature with shorter lags in the high-velocity wings than in the line core, consistent with an origin in a broad-line region dominated by orbital motion rather than infall or outflow. Assuming a virial normalization factor of f=5.25, the virial estimate of the black hole mass is (3.2+-0.5)*10^7 solar masses. These observations demonstrate that Mrk 50 is among the most promising nearby active galaxies for detailed investigations of broad-line region structure and dynamics.

Characterization of land cover-specific fire regimes in the Brazilian Amazon

description: Humans profoundly alter fire regimes both directly, by introducing changes in fuel dynamics and ignitions, and indirectly, by increasing the release of greenhouse gases and aerosols from fires, which can alter regional climate and, as a consequence, modify fuel moisture and availability. Interactions between vegetation dynamics, regional climate change and anthropogenic pressure lead to high heterogeneity in the spatio-temporal fire distribution. We use the new FireTracks Scientific Dataset that tracks the spatio-temporal development of individual fires to analyse fire regimes in the Brazilian Legal Amazon over the period 2002–2020. We analyse fire size, duration, intensity and rate of spread in six different land-cover classes. Particular combinations of fire features determine the dominant and characteristic fire regime in each of them. We find that fires in savannas and evergreen forests burn the largest areas and are the most long lasting. Forest fires have the potential for burning at the highest intensities, whereas higher rates of spread are found in savannas. Woody savanna and grassland fires are usually affected by smaller, shorter, less-intense fires compared with fires in evergreen forest and savanna. However, fires in grasslands can burn at rates of spread as high as savanna fires as a result of the easily flammable fuel. We observe that fires in deciduous forests and croplands are generally small, short and low intense, although the latter can sustain high rates of spread due to the dry post-harvest residuals. The reconstructed fire regimes for each land cover can be used to improve the simulated fire characteristics by models and, thus, future projections.

description: Purpose: Focal pattern in multiple myeloma (MM) seems to be related to poorer survival and differentiation from diffuse to focal pattern on computed tomography (CT) has inter-reader variability. This study aims evaluate if Radiomic approach could help radiologists in differentiating diffuse from focal patterns on CT.?Methods: We retrospectively reviewed imaging data of 70 patients with MM with CT, PET-CT or MRI available before bone marrow transplant. Two general radiologist evaluated, in consensus, CT images to define a focal (at least one lytic lesion > 5 mm in diameter) or a diffuse (lesions < 5 mm, not osteoporosis) pattern. N = 104 Radiomics features were extracted and evaluated with an open source software. Results: We found, after feature reduction, 9 features were different (p < 0.05) in the diffuse and focal patterns AUC of the Radiologists versus Reference Standard was 0.64. Conclusion: A Radiomics approach improves radiological evaluation of focal and diffuse pattern of MM on CT.

description: A Riemannian manifold $M$ is said to satisfy the Omori-Yau maximum principle if for any $C^2$ bounded function $g:M\to \Bbb R$ there is a sequence $x_n\in M$, such that $\lim_{n\to \infty}g(x_n)=\sup_M g$, $ \lim_{n\to \infty}|\nabla g(x_n)|=0$ and $\limsup_{n\to \infty}Δg(x_n)\leq 0$. It is shown that if the Ricci curvature does not approach $-\infty $ too fast the manifold satisfies the Omori-Yau maximum principle. This improves earlier necessary conditions. The given condition is quite optimal.
