description: The accessibility from online sources of Adderall (amphetamine/dextroamphetamine), a controlled substance with harmful adverse events if abused or misused, and rapid-acting insulins (Humalog (insulin lispro) and NovoLog (insulin aspart), high-risk medications with an outsized role in the public debate regarding high drug prices, have not been well documented. We sought to assess the availability of Adderall, Humalog, and NovoLog from common search engines and evaluate the safety and marketing characteristics of online pharmacies selling these medications.
Transformations in the Public Perception of Sperm Donation in China. An Analysis of Media Debate in Chinese Newspapers in the 2010’s
Creators: name: Klein, Kerstin
Publisher: name: Tecnoscienza – Italian Journal of Science & Technology Studies
Year: 2018

description: Despite a long history of assisted reproductive technologies including the use of IVF and artificial insemination, sperm donation has always been a difficult topic in China due to a number of political and sociocultural factors. The article will look at the cultural biases against sperm donation, that in the past have led to a severe shortage of sperm donors across the country’s provincial sperm banks. It will also look at the political and regulatory context of sperm donation, and it will explore new developments more recently that have transformed the perception of sperm donation and the attitudes among Chinese men to become sperm donors. In particular, it will look at the media controversy about sperm donation that followed the death of a sperm donor in Wuhan city in 2011, which served as an important catalyst to initiate wider public debate about sperm donation in the media. As the Chinese government is actively seeking to encourage more men to become sperm donors, and media organizations have taken a more active role in collecting, disseminating and transmitting information, this has changed the perception on sperm donation, at least to some degree. Today, there is a more knowledgeable and better informed (male) public, in particular among university students, who is more willing to become sperm donors than it was the case only five years ago. However, as much as this has changed, the end of China’s one-child policy in 2016 has put new pressures on an already strained system of supply and demand of donor sperm in the context of assisted reproductive technologies, as today even more couples are seeking to fulfill their reproductive wishes to also have a second child.

Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: We introduce a simple protocol for verifiable measurement-only blind quantum computing. Alice, a client, can perform only single-qubit measurements, whereas Bob, a server, can generate and store entangled many-qubit states. Bob generates copies of a graph state, which is a universal resource state for measurement-based quantum computing, and sends Alice each qubit of them one by one. Alice adaptively measures each qubit according to her program. If Bob is honest, he generates the correct graph state, and therefore Alice can obtain the correct computation result. Regarding the security, whatever Bob does, Bob cannot learn any information about Alice's computation because of the no-signaling principle. Furthermore, evil Bob does not necessarily send the copies of the correct graph state, but Alice can check the correctness of Bob's state by directly verifying stabilizers of some copies.

The Good Sperm Cell. Ethnographic Explorations of Semen Quality

Publisher: name: Tecnoscienza – Italian Journal of Science & Technology Studies
Year: 2018

description: In this article, we compare the meaning and assessment of semen quality across three different contexts: male infertility, sperm donation, and in-vitro sperm. We ask how semen quality is determined in these three contexts and what kind of practices and normative choices these evaluative processes involve. While the notion of good semen quality is often reduced to biomedical evidence, our analysis shows that it also draws on beliefs about what is desirable and what is not, producing biomedical evidence in light of specifically desired outcomes. Unpacking semen quality, by looking at the specificities of how it is done across three different contexts, in this article we thus move beyond comprehending quality standards as purely technical matters and reposition biomedical assessments of male reproductive potential in their political and normative contexts.

description: This thesis applies a range of governance network concepts, primarily developed within the global political north, to a specific governance network operating within remote northern Australia. The range of governance challenges found present illustrates several informal management mechanisms that have spontaneously emerged capable of addressing specific intercultural management needs. Through application of key network governance concepts analyses within the thesis develop explanations for how and why these informal management mechanisms have emerged. Focus for this study is directed at how such informal management mechanisms are subject to transformation from both internal and external influences, as network members set and achieve various governance tasks intended to address development needs in the region it has emerged from. By assuming such responsibility, the network engages with various levels of government as it seeks to create a favourable environment for its governance aims. As such, an emerging relationship between the network and the government departments and agencies it interacts with is utilised to inform analysis of transforming state-society relations believed characteristic within network societies.

description: Beta Cephei-type variables are early B-type stars that are characterized by oscillations observable in their optical light curves. At least one Beta Cep-variable also shows periodic variability in X-rays. Here we study the X-ray light curves in a sample of beta Cep-variables to investigate how common X-ray pulsations are for this type of stars. We searched the Chandra and XMM-Newton X-ray archives and selected stars that were observed by these telescopes for at least three optical pulsational periods. We retrieved and analyzed the X-ray data for kappa Sco, beta Cru, and alpha Vir. The X-ray light curves of these objects were studied to test for their variability and periodicity. While there is a weak indication for X-ray variability in beta Cru, we find no statistically significant evidence of X-ray pulsations in any of our sample stars. This might be due either to the insufficient data quality or to the physical lack of modulations. New, more sensitive observations should settle this question.

description: We present spin-independent and spin-spin interquark potentials for charmonium states, that are calculated using a relativistic heavy quark action for charm quarks on the PACS-CS gauge configurations generated with the Iwasaki gauge action and 2+1 flavors of Wilson clover quark. The interquark potential with finite quark masses is defined through the equal-time Bethe-Salpeter amplitude. The light and strange quark masses are close to the physical point where the pion mass corresponds to $M_π\approx 156(7)$ MeV, and charm quark mass is tuned to reproduce the experimental values of $η_c$ and $J/ψ$ states. Our simulations are performed with a lattice cutoff of $a^{-1}\approx 2.2$ GeV and a spatial volume of $(3 {\rm fm})^3$. We solve the nonrelativistic Schrödinger equation with resulting charmonium potentials as theoretical inputs. The resultant charmonium spectrum below the open charm threshold shows a fairly good agreement with experimental data of well-established charmonium states.

description: The introduction aims to introduce the topic under investigation in this thematic section and underline connections among the three essays. Taken as a whole, the thematic section explores “ontological shiftings” in life sciences, i.e. how reproductive cells can assume different meanings, roles and values according to the situated processes in which they are embedded. The section sheds light on the co-production of reproductive cells and “moral landscapes”, showing how conventions concerning biological “properties” and “qualities” are intertwined with social norms and values about family, kinship, and gender relations. The term “sliding cells” is meant to evoke the unstable boundaries between “Nature” and “Culture” explored in this section.

description: We study the asymptotic behaviour of sharp front solutions arising from the nonlinear diffusion equation θ_t = (D(θ)θ_x)_x, where the diffusivity is an exponential function D(θ) = D_o exp(βθ). This problem arises for example in the study of unsaturated flow in porous media where θ represents the liquid saturation. For physical parameters corresponding to actual porous media, the diffusivity at the residual saturation is D(0) = D_o << 1 so that the diffusion problem is nearly degenerate. Such problems are characterised by wetting fronts that sharply delineate regions of saturated and unsaturated flow, and that propagate with a well-defined speed. Using matched asymptotic expansions in the limit of large β, we derive an analytical description of the solution that is uniformly valid throughout the wetting front. This is in contrast with most other related analyses that instead truncate the solution at some specific wetting front location, which is then calculated as part of the solution, and beyond that location the solution is undefined. Our asymptotic analysis demonstrates that the solution has a four-layer structure, and by matching through the adjacent layers we obtain an estimate of the wetting front location in terms of the material parameters describing the porous medium. Using numerical simulations of the original nonlinear diffusion equation, we demonstrate that the first few terms in our series solution provide approximations of physical quantities such as wetting front location and speed of propagation that are more accurate (over a wide range of admissible β values) than other asymptotic approximations reported in the literature.

"Just respect. I am a human being...treat me like that, talk to me like that": Islamophobia and the Healthcare System
Creators: name: Suliman, Tarteel
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2021

description: 	Islamophobia is a growing public health issue in White, Christian-majority countries, including the United States (Samari et al., 2018). I conducted a systematic review of published literature, which yielded little data regarding Islamophobia as a whole and even less so for Islamophobia in health. Although research is minimal, Islamophobia negatively disrupts health systems at the individual, interpersonal, and structural levels (Samari, 2016). This paper advances the understanding of Islam and common misconceptions of the religion and its practice. Further, Islamophobia is defined and explored through the experience of three Black Muslim women in health care environments. I used a semi-structured format to conduct a virtual interview with each woman. Interviews were later transcribed and one interview was translated from Arabic to English, remaining as close to the English meaning in Arabic as the English language allowed. The initial intention of this research was to examine the influence of wearing the hijab on Muslim women’s health care encounters. Importantly, however, aspects of care such as the idea of race and respect proved to be significant and were not always related to wearing the hijab. Additionally, findings highlight how demonization of Muslims contributes to adverse health outcomes, and how recognition of the way White supremacy operates within health care and daily life can mitigate these negative effects.

description: The weathering front is the boundary beneath Earth’s surface where pristine rock is converted into weathered rock. It is the base of the “critical zone”, in which the lithosphere, biosphere, and atmosphere interact. Typically, this front is located no more than 20 m deep in granitoid rock in humid climate zones. Its depth and the degree of rock weathering are commonly linked to oxygen transport and fluid flow. By drilling into fractured igneous rock in the semi-arid climate zone of the Coastal Cordillera in Chile we found multiple weathering fronts of which the deepest is 76 m beneath the surface. Rock is weathered to varying degrees, contains core stones, and strongly altered zones featuring intensive iron oxidation and high porosity. Geophysical borehole measurements and chemical weathering indicators reveal more intense weathering where fracturing is extensive, and porosity is higher than in bedrock. Only the top 10 m feature a continuous weathering gradient towards the surface. We suggest that tectonic preconditioning by fracturing provided transport pathways for oxygen to greater depths, inducing porosity by oxidation. Porosity was preserved throughout the weathering process, as secondary minerals were barely formed due to the low fluid flow.

description: We study several parasitic effects on the implementation of a Josephson radiation comb generator (JRCG) based on a dc superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) driven by an external magnetic field. This system can be used as a radiation generator similarly to what is done in optics and metrology, and allows one to generate up to several hundreds of harmonics of the driving frequency. First we take into account how assuming a finite loop geometrical inductance and junction capacitance in each SQUID may alter the operation of this device. Then, we estimate the effect of imperfections in the fabrication of an array of SQUIDs, which is an unavoidable source of errors in practical situations. We show that the role of the junction capacitance is in general negligible, whereas the geometrical inductance has a beneficial effect on the performance of the device. The errors on the areas and junction resistance asymmetries may deteriorate the performance, but their effect can be limited up to a large extent with a suitable choice of fabrication parameters.

title: Biomechanics of the paediatric foot and lower limb: associations with adiposity
Creators: name: Mahaffey, Ryan
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2013

description: Childhood obesity is a growing problem in the UK and primary schoolchildren are particularly at risk. With this growing concern the associated co-morbidities of obesity are increasingly evident.  There has been limited research undertaken to quantify the impact of excessive body fat mass (adiposity) on the function of the child’s lower limb and feet.  The primary aim of this research was to explore the relationships between adiposity with lower limb and foot biomechanics in boys age 7 to 11 years old.
Fifty five children were recruited to participate in protocols for body composition and three-dimensional gait analysis established in the initial phases of the study. Kinematic and kinetic variables from four lower limb joints (pelvis, hip, knee and ankle) and four foot joints (hindfoot-shank, midfoot-hindfoot, forefoot-midfoot and hallux-first metatarsal) were analysed over the gait cycle.  Statistical analysis by principal component analysis was undertaken and allowed the determination of components, constructed of lower limb and foot variables, to be analysed in multiple regression.  Multiple regression was also undertaken to assess the relationships between the lower limb and foot variables and body composition whilst accounting for confounding factors including age, anthropometric and spatiotemporal variables.  The key findings demonstrated that higher adiposity was associated with greater hip flexion, knee adduction moments and a pronated foot type.  These findings indicate that boys with higher fat mass are at risk of future musculoskeletal co-morbidities including concerns of developing flat feet.
This work presents a novel protocol for advanced understanding of lower limb and foot biomechanics and comprehensive data of paediatric lower limb and foot function during gait in normal weight and obese children.  The research details, for the first time, that obesity affects the dynamic function of the paediatric foot.  This work underpins the need for further longitudinal research looking at the prevention and management of musculoskeletal complications associated with childhood obesity.
Exploring the Feasibility of Implementing a Medication Assisted Therapy Program Through the Emergency Department
Creators: name: Taska, David
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2021

description: Background: The opioid epidemic is complex and concerning, but of particular concern is insufficient addiction therapy and mortality from opioid-related overdose. Lack of addiction management increases the likelihood of an individual presenting to the Emergency Department (ED) for an opioid-related overdose. Medication Assisted Therapy (MAT) has been shown to reduce opioid use, reduce opioid related mortality,
and can be initiated in the ED. Objective: We sought to identify local factors that could affect MAT uptake and better understand the feasibility of employing a MAT program through our local community hospital’s ED. Methods: We employed a single center, retrospective cohort study in patients who presented to our Hospital’s ED with an opioid-related emergency between January 1, 2018 to August 31, 2019. Results: A total of 1,440 patients presented with an opioid-related emergency over 17 months. There were 1,974 visits with opioid-related ICD10 codes, and 305 patients accounted for 41% of all opioid-related ED visits. Only 15% of patients were discharged to other facilities for
potential substance use disorder treatment. Rate of mortality was 6 /1,000 opioid related ED patient visits. Conclusion: White males in their 20’s through 30’s appear to have the highest risk for an opioid-related ED visit. It was common for patients to present multiple times with another opioid incident, but most likely survive the emergency and be discharged home.
Analytical solution for the stopping power of the Cherenkov radiation in a uniaxial nanowire material

description: We derive closed analytical formulae for the power emitted by moving charged particles in a uniaxial wire medium by means of an eigenfunction expansion. Our analytical expressions demonstrate that in the absence of material dispersion the stopping power of the uniaxial wire medium is proportional to the charges velocity, and that there is no velocity threshold for the Cherenkov emission. It is shown that the eigenfunction expansion formalism can be extended to the case of dispersive lossless media. Furthermore, in presence of material dispersion the optimal charge velocity that maximizes the emitted Cherenkov power may be less than the speed of light in vacuum.

description: Human activities may impact animal habitat and resource use, potentially influencing contemporary evolution in animals. In the United Kingdom, COVID-19 lockdown restrictions resulted in sudden, drastic alterations to human activity. We hypothesized that short-term daily and long-term seasonal changes in human mobility might result in changes in bird habitat use, depending on the mobility type (home, parks and grocery) and extent of change. Using Google human mobility data and 872 850 bird observations, we determined that during lockdown, human mobility changes resulted in altered habitat use in 80% (20/25) of our focal bird species. When humans spent more time at home, over half of affected species had lower counts, perhaps resulting from the disturbance of birds in garden habitats. Bird counts of some species (e.g. rooks and gulls) increased over the short term as humans spent more time parks, possibly due to human-sourced food resources (e.g. picnic refuse), while counts of other species (e.g. tits and sparrows) decreased. All affected species increased counts when humans spent less time at grocery services. Avian species rapidly adjusted to the novel environmental conditions and demonstrated behavioural plasticity, but with diverse responses, reflecting the different interactions and pressures caused by human activity.

description: We report the first observation of the annihilation of positronium from the 2S state. Positronium (Ps) is excited with a two-photon transition from the 1S to the 2S state where its lifetime is increased by a factor of eight compared to the ground state due to the decrease in the overlap of the positron electron wavefunction. The yield of delayed annihilation photons detected as a function of laser frequency is used as a new method of detecting laser-excited Ps in the 2S state. This can be considered the first step towards a new high precision measurement of the 1S-2S Ps line.

description: In metric Diophantine approximation there are two main types of approximations: simultaneous and dual for both homogeneous and inhomogeneous settings. The well known measure-theoretic theorems of Khintchine and Jarník are fundamental in these settings. Recently, there has been substantial progress towards establishing a metric theory of Diophantine approximations on manifolds. In particular, both the Khintchine and Jarník type results have been established for planar curves except for only one case. In this paper, we prove an inhomogeneous Jarník type theorem for convergence on planar curves and in so doing complete the metric theory for both the homogeneous and inhomogeneous settings for approximation on planar curves.

description: Land subsidence is a morphological phenomenon, which causes negative environmental and economic consequences for human societies. Therefore, identifying the areas prone to subsidence can be one of the necessary measures for reducing the potential risks. This study aims to evaluate the efficiency of the support vector machine (SVM) algorithm and weighted overlay index (WOI) models in zoning the rate of land subsidence hazard in Hashtgerd plain, Iran. First, the 19 criteria include groundwater depletion, groundwater extraction, aquifer thickness, alluvium thickness, aquifer recharge, well density, drainage density, groundwater depth, lithology, bedrock depth, average annual precipitation, average annual temperature, climate type, agricultural use, urban use, industrial use, distance from rivers and streams, distance from roads, distance from faults were considered. Then, the layers were weighed based on the Best–Worst Method (BWM). The results of BWM indicated that the factors of groundwater extraction (0.219), lithology (0.157), and groundwater depletion (0.079) have a greater effect on the potential for subsidence hazard. Moreover, the results of validation by performing ROC curve showed that the accuracy of RBF-SVM, LN-SVM, SIG-SVM, PL-SVM, and WOI were 95.7, 94.3, 94.9, 93.2, and 90%, respectively. Based on the ROC results, all of the models for preparing the subsidence hazard map in Hashtgerd plain exhibit excellent accuracy. Therefore, all of the models used here can predict the areas vulnerable to subsidence properly. In this study, the five land subsidence hazard maps were used as new input factors and integrated using fuzzy gamma-ensemble methods to make better hazard maps. The results of the ensemble model indicated that 19.3% of Hashtgerd plain is in the zone of high to very high sensitivity. The results of this study can help planners in managing and reducing the possible hazards of subsidence.
Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs) as an Assessment Method for Global Health Experiences

description: Objective. There is a lack of standardized learning assessments across health professions for global health experiences (GHEs). The objective of this study is to evaluate current GHE assessment methods and whether Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs) may serve as a standardized assessment method for GHEs.
Methods. This study used a single-centered mixed-method study design consisting of a survey followed by in-depth interviews for employees of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC) whom had global health education experience. Survey data analysis used descriptive statistics and interview transcripts were coded through open coding by two coders.
Results. Eight individuals from four healthcare disciplines participated in the study. Participants noted five common core outcomes (collaboration, communication, cultural appropriateness, engagement, and professionalism) for GHEs that an assessment method should evaluate. Five participants agreed that EPAs could assess GHEs, but three emphasized that EPAs’ applicability depends on the nature of the GHE.
Conclusion. With some modifications, EPAs have the potential to be a standardized assessment method for GHEs among different healthcare professional programs. The common outcomes identified could help with the development of a standard set of EPAs among different disciplines, but more research is needed to explore how to apply EPAs framework to assess the identified outcomes and what other competencies should be included.

Political Uncertainty and Cost Stickiness: Evidence from Prefecture-city Official Turnover in China

description: How politics influences firm behaviours and economic outcomes is a longstanding question in research and public debate. One important way in which politics is conjectured to influence real decisions is through the channel of uncertainty. While extensive prior studies focus on the impact of political uncertainty on firms’ investment and financing activities, the evidence on how political uncertainty affects firms’ operating decisions remains scarce. To fill this gap in the literature, this study investigates the impact of political uncertainty on asymmetric cost behaviour (i.e. cost stickiness) for listed firms in China. Using the turnover of prefecture-city officials as a measure of exogenous fluctuations in political uncertainty, we find that political turnover leads to a higher degree of cost stickiness, implying that firms retain slack resources when political uncertainty is high. Moreover, the effect of political uncertainty on cost stickiness is more pronounced for firms residing in regions with weak institutional environment, firms that are privately owned and with small size, and when the newly appointed official is from a different city. Our findings suggest that political uncertainty is an important channel through which the local political process influences corporate operational decisions, thus firms should take political uncertainty into account when setting their resource adjustment policies.
Where Infinite Spin Particles Are Localizable

description: Particles states transforming in one of the infinite spin representations of the Poincaré group (as classified by E. Wigner) are consistent with fundamental physical principles, but local fields generating them from the vacuum state cannot exist. While it is known that infinite spin states localized in a spacelike cone are dense in the one-particle space, we show here that the subspace of states localized in any double cone is trivial. This implies that the free field theory associated with infinite spin has no observables localized in bounded regions. In an interacting theory, if the vacuum vector is cyclic for a double cone local algebra, then the theory does not contain infinite spin representations. We also prove that if a Doplicher-Haag-Roberts representation (localized in a double cone) of a local net is covariant under a unitary representation of the Poincaré group containing infinite spin, then it has infinite statistics. These results hold under the natural assumption of the Bisognano-Wichmann property, and we give a counter-example (with continuous particle degeneracy) without this property where the conclusions fail. Our results hold true in any spacetime dimension s+1 where infinite spin representations exist, namely s > 1.
