The sisterhood method of estimating maternal mortality : a study in Matlab, Bangladesh
Creators: name: Shahidullah, Md

Subjects: subject: Mothers MortalityBangladesh

subject: Social sciences Research Bangladesh

description: The thesis is about ways to improve the technique of maternal mortality estimation known as the "sisterhood method', which entails questioning respondents on the circumstances of death for any sister who may have died. From the records of maternal deaths that occurred during 1976-90 in the Matlab Demographic Surveillance System (DSS) area, a field station of the International Centre for Diarrhoeal Disease Research, Bangladesh (ICDDR,B), a list was prepared of deceased women's surviving brothers and sisters, aged 15 years and over, born to the same mother. One adult brother or sister of each of the deceased women was interviewed and asked whether he or she had a sister whose death was due to pregnancy, childbirth or in the 90 days after childbirth. Information on maternity-related deaths obtained in the survey was then compared with the information recorded in the DSS. Results suggest that in places similar to Matlab the sisterhood method will produce negative bias in estimates of maternal mortality mainly through misreporting of induced abortion-related deaths, particularly those associated with premarital conceptions. The analysis demonstrates that the problem giving rise to most of this negative bias is not with the method but with the sociocultural background of respondents, which encourages them to hide pregnancyrelated deaths to never-married women. These findings highlight the need for more research into ways of asking questions about pregnancy status of sisters, particularly the never-married sisters, who have died. This study not only found out that the sisterhood estimate of maternal mortality will contain a negative bias but also offered recommendations to improve reporting in future sisterhood surveys by identifying some important determinants of accurate reporting of maternal deaths. It then explored the possibilities for extending the sisterhood method. The main question asked in this regard was whether causes of maternal deaths could be studied using this method. It is concluded that though cause-of-death information obtained by the method will always be subject to some error, it can provide an indication of an overall distribution of causes of maternal deaths which can be of value to public health, particularly for the planning of programs aimed at reducing maternal mortality and for evaluation of such programs over time.

description: We present a study of the unidentified gamma-ray source 3EG J0542+2610. This source is spatially superposed to the supernova remnant G180.0-1.7, but its time variability makes unlikely a physical link. We have searched into the EGRET location error box for compact radio sources that could be the low energy counterpart of the gamma-ray source. Although 29 point-like radio sources were detected and measured, none of them is strong enough as to be considered the counterpart of a background gamma-ray emitting AGN. We suggest that the only object within the 95 % error box capable of producing the required gamma-ray flux is the X-ray transient A0535+26. We show that this Be/accreting pulsar can produce variable hadronic gamma-ray emission through the mechanism originally proposed by Cheng & Ruderman (1989), where a proton beam accelerated in a magnetospheric electrostatic gap impacts the transient accretion disk.

description: This study reports on a project that adopted a social constructivist approach and SMART goals to develop a successful peer-teaching mentoring program to enhance year ten students' leadership growth and year six students' connectedness to their school and peers. Doran (1981, p. 16) developed the SMART goals approach as a guided process to develop a project's desired goal. The SMART goals, S-Specific, M-Measurable, A-Achievable, R-Relevant, and T-Timely, were used to develop the pedagogical artifacts for the peer-teaching mentoring program and facilitate sharing knowledge, skills, and experience. The study used the SMART goals to map the developing stages. It was divided into three stages: 1. developing the characteristics and pedagogical artifacts, 2. preparing the program with the school, and 3. developing surveys and interview questions for data collection and future program analysis. The paper argues that using the SMART goals can help articulate and develop pedagogical tools on peer-teaching mentoring models that address the essential stages and characteristics for facilitating the sharing of knowledge, skills, and experience.

description: The conducting and thermodynamic properties of ballistic metallic nanocontacts with smooth shapes are investigated. All properties are related to the electronic scattering matrix, which is evaluated in the WKB approximation for independent electrons and in the self-consistent Hartree approximation for interacting electrons. Mesoscopic oscillations of order 1nN in the cohesive force and of order e in the contact charge are predicted when a metallic nanocontact is pulled apart, which are synchronized with quantized jumps in the conductance.

description: Energy technologies and mixes have recently begun to change. For instance, there have been high recent growth rates in solar and wind energy consumption. This is important because affordable and clean energy is a crucial contributor to economic development. There are many impacts of energy on economic development through social, health, economic, and environmental channels. This thesis investigates the underlying macroeconomic and institutional factors that contribute to differences in energy use across countries. I focus on potentially important factors underlying energy outcomes that have not received prominent attention in the previous literature. I find that the size of financial capital stocks is an important contributor to energy mix differences across countries. The type of financial capital is also important. Both private credit from banks and domestic private debt have positive impacts on wind energy consumption. I do not find evidence of an effect of equity. I also find that citizen preferences matter for energy transitions. Solar energy use is greater in countries that have a higher proportion of citizens who perceive climate change to be a serious personal threat. Aggregate policy support and the specific policy of carbon pricing have also been important for solar energy. Another finding is that the effectiveness of governments is the most important governance aspect underlying electricity sector development in low- and middle-income countries. Sudden shocks can also have large impacts on both energy and economic development. There was a major fall in energy use for road transport following the 2010 earthquake in Haiti. This likely contributed to the transmission of a potentially permanent earthquake impact on gross domestic product. This thesis also considers a potential causal relationship from electricity to economic growth. While the availability of electricity provides numerous benefits, I do not find evidence that initial electricity availability is a key factor explaining differences in subsequent national economic growth performance. The results suggest that indirect policies, other than just specific energy policies, could make a valuable contribution to energy sector outcomes. These indirect policies include financial policy that affects financial system size and structure, education to help shape energy preferences, institutional reform, and investment to foster resilience to natural disasters. Improved energy outcomes can then contribute to economic development outcomes including social, health, and environmental improvements.

description: We explore a scenario where Dark Matter (DM) couples to the Standard Model mainly via a scalar mediator ${\cal S}$ that is odd under a $Z_2$ symmetry, leading to interesting collider signatures. In fact, if linear interactions with the mediator are absent the most important DM production mechanisms at colliders could lead to final states with missing transverse energy (MET) in association with at least two fermions, such as di-jet or di-electron signatures. The framework we consider is model-independent, in a sense that it is only based on symmetry and formulated in the (extended) DM Effective Field Theory (eDMEFT) approach. Moreover, it allows to address the smallness of first-generation fermion masses via suppressed $Z_2$ breaking effects. From a di-jet +MET analysis at the LHC, we find rather loose bounds on the effective ${\cal S}$-${\cal S}$-DM-DM interactions, unless the mediator couples very strongly to SM fermions, while a future $e^+ e^-$ collider, such as CLIC, could deliver tighter constraints on the corresponding model parameters, given the mediator is leptophilic. We finally highlight the parameter space that allows to produce the observed DM density, including constraints from direct-detection experiments.

 Remarks. Bousquet (2012) reported the geographic range of Selenophorus elongatus (LeConte) as AL, FL, GA. Casey (1914: 156) compared it to S. hylacis and suggested that this “very rare” species has a narrower body, pronotum slightly more elongate and with midline stria abbreviated to absent. In examining vast southeastern material, we were unable to find a convincing specimen that resembled S. hylacis with these subtle differences. The type specimen of S. elongatus imaged at mczbase.mcz.harvard.edu/guid/MCZ:Ent:5883 shows no substantial external difference from the variation we observed in S. hylacis. Selenophorus elongatus is best regarded as a synonym of S. hylacis.

description: We describe the Outer Rim cosmological simulation, one of the largest high-resolution N-body simulations performed to date, aimed at promoting science to be carried out with large-scale structure surveys. The simulation covers a volume of (4.225Gpc)^3 and evolves more than one trillion particles. It was executed on Mira, a BlueGene/Q system at the Argonne Leadership Computing Facility. We discuss some of the computational challenges posed by a system like Mira, a many-core supercomputer, and how the simulation code, HACC, has been designed to overcome these challenges. We have carried out a large range of analyses on the simulation data and we report on the results as well as the data products that have been generated. The full data set generated by the simulation totals more than 5PB of data, making data curation and data handling a large challenge in of itself. The simulation results have been used to generate synthetic catalogs for large-scale structure surveys, including DESI and eBOSS, as well as CMB experiments. A detailed catalog for the LSST DESC data challenges has been created as well. We publicly release some of the Outer Rim halo catalogs, downsampled particle information, and lightcone data.

description: An algorithm is proposed for determining asymptotics of the sum of a perturbative series in the strong coupling limit using given values of the expansion coefficients. Operation of the algorithm is illustrated by test examples, method for estimating errors is developed, and an optimization procedure is described. Application of the algorithm to the $ϕ^4$ theory gives a behavior $β(g)\approx 7.4 g^{0.96}$ at large $g$ for its Gell-Mann -- Low function. The fact that the exponent is close to unity can be interpreted as a manifestation of the logarithmic branching of the type $β(g)\sim g (\ln g)^{-γ}$ (with $γ\approx 0.14$), which is confirmed by independent evidence. In any case, the $ϕ^4$ theory is internally consistent. The procedure of summing perturbartive series with arbitrary values of expansion parameter is discussed.

description: We compute the energy spectra of the gravitational signals emitted when a pointlike mass moves on a closed orbit around a non rotating neutron star, inducing a perturbation of its gravitational field and its internal structure. The Einstein equations and the hydrodynamical equations are perturbed and numerically integrated in the frequency domain. The results are compared with the energy spectra computed by the quadrupole formalism which assumes that both masses are pointlike, and accounts only for the radiation emitted because the orbital motion produces a time dependent quadrupole moment. The results of our perturbative approach show that, in general, the quadrupole formalism overestimates the amount of emitted radiation, especially when the two masses are close. However, if the pointlike mass is allowed to move on an orbit so tight that the keplerian orbital frequency resonates with the frequency of the fundamental quasi-normal mode of the star (2w_K=w_f), this mode can be excited and the emitted radiation can be considerably larger than that computed by the quadrupole approach.

description: For decades, the use of HPC systems was limited to those in the physical sciences who had mastered their domain in conjunction with a deep understanding of HPC architectures and algorithms. During these same decades, consumer computing device advances produced tablets and smartphones that allow millions of children to interactively develop and share code projects across the globe. As the HPC community faces the challenges associated with guiding researchers from disciplines using high productivity interactive tools to effective use of HPC systems, it seems appropriate to revisit the assumptions surrounding the necessary skills required for access to large computational systems. For over a decade, MIT Lincoln Laboratory has been supporting interactive, on-demand high performance computing by seamlessly integrating familiar high productivity tools to provide users with an increased number of design turns, rapid prototyping capability, and faster time to insight. In this paper, we discuss the lessons learned while supporting interactive, on-demand high performance computing from the perspectives of the users and the team supporting the users and the system. Building on these lessons, we present an overview of current needs and the technical solutions we are building to lower the barrier to entry for new users from the humanities, social, and biological sciences.

description: Potential discovery, observation and exclusion limits of excited $u$ and $d$ quarks with gamma+jet final state are researched at the multi-TeV scale colliders, FCC and S$pp$C in this work. Both colliders, FCC and S$pp$C, show that excited $u$ and $d$ quarks could be discovered up to 42.1 TeV and 55.2 TeV for $u^\star$, 30.3 TeV and 39.4 TeV for $d^\star$ and 42.3 TeV and 55.5 TeV mass values for degenerate case (m$_{u^\star}$ = m$_{d^\star}$), respectively. Determination of excited quarks compositeness scale is examined, which will be up to multi-PeV level. Beside these analysis, free parameters ($f_s,\;f\;\text{and}\; f^\prime$) are scanned from around 0.1 up to 1 that show excited quark could be discovered at dozens of TeV with even coupling constants under 0.1.

description: From extensive molecular dynamics simulations on immiscible two-phase flows, we find the relative slipping between the fluids and the solid wall everywhere to follow the generalized Navier boundary condition, in which the amount of slipping is proportional to the sum of tangential viscous stress and the uncompensated Young stress. The latter arises from the deviation of the fluid-fluid interface from its static configuration. We give a continuum formulation of the immiscible flow hydrodynamics, comprising the generalized Navier boundary condition, the Navier-Stokes equation, and the Cahn-Hilliard interfacial free energy. Our hydrodynamic model yields interfacial and velocity profiles matching those from the molecular dynamics simulations at the molecular-scale vicinity of the contact line. In particular, the behavior at high capillary numbers, leading to the breakup of the fluid-fluid interface, is accurately predicted.

description: This paper examines the critical role of antivirus software in combating malware while addressing the growing challenges posed by sophisticated evasion techniques. It explores various antivirus detection methods, including signature-based, heuristic, and behavior-based analyses, alongside advanced evasion strategies employed by attackers, such as process injection, code obfuscation, and privilege escalation. The theoretical background provides insights into the evolution of malware and the limitations of conventional detection approaches. The methodology outlines how these evasion techniques operate, supported by an analysis section that presents graphs and charts illustrating their effectiveness, particularly in malware types like worms. The findings indicate that current antivirus solutions struggle against multi-stage and adaptive malware, highlighting the urgent need for more dynamic security measures. The paper concludes by discussing future directions for research and improvements in antivirus strategies to effectively counter the evolving threat landscape.

description: Graph partitioning has many applications. We consider the acceleration of shortest path queries in road networks using Customizable Contraction Hierarchies (CCH). It is based on computing a nested dissection order by recursively dividing the road network into parts. Recently, with FlowCutter and Inertial Flow, two flow-based graph bipartitioning algorithms have been proposed for road networks. While FlowCutter achieves high-quality results and thus fast query times, it is rather slow. Inertial Flow is particularly fast due to the use of geographical information while still achieving decent query times. We combine the techniques of both algorithms to achieve more than six times faster preprocessing times than FlowCutter and even faster queries on the Europe road network. We show that using 16 cores of a shared-memory machine, this preprocessing needs four minutes.

description: Point-ion models have been extensively used to determine "hole numbers" at copper and oxygen sites in high-temperature superconducting cuprate compounds from measured nuclear quadrupole frequencies. The present study assesses the reliability of point-ion models to predict electric field gradients accurately and also the implicit assumption that the values can be calculated from the "holes" and not the total electronic structure. First-principles cluster calculations using basis sets centred on the nuclei have enabled the determination of the charge and spin density distribution in the CuO2-plane. The contributions to the electric field gradients and the magnetic hyperfine couplings are analysed in detail. In particular they are partitioned into regions in an attempt to find a correlation with the most commonly used point-ion model, the Sternheimer equation which depends on the two parameters R and gamma. Our most optimistic objective was to find expressions for these parameters, which would improve our understanding of them, but although estimates of the R parameter were encouraging the method used to obtain the gamma parameter indicate that the two parameters may not be independent. The problem seems to stem from the covalently bonded nature of the CuO2-planes in these structures which severely questions using the Sternheimer equation for such crystals, since its derivation is heavily reliant on the application of perturbation theory to predominantly ionic structures. Furthermore it is shown that the complementary contributions of electrons and holes in an isolated ion cannot be applied to estimates of electric field gradients at copper and oxygen nuclei in cuprates.

A statistical-mechanical approach to CDMA multiuser detection: propagating beliefs in a densely connected graph

description: The task of CDMA multiuser detection is to simultaneously estimate binary symbols of $K$ synchronous users from the received $N$ base-band CDMA signals. Mathematically, this can be formulated as an inference problem on a complete bipartite graph. In the research on graphically represented statistical models, it is known that the belief propagation (BP) can exactly perform the inference in a polynomial time scale of the system size when the graph is free from cycles in spite that the necessary computation for general graphs exponentially explodes in the worst case. In addition, recent several researches revealed that the BP can also serve as an excellent approximation algorithm even if the graph has cycles as far as they are relatively long. However, as there exit many short cycles in a complete bipartite graph, one might suspect that the BP would not provide a good performance when employed for the multiuser detection. The purpose of this paper is to make an objection to such suspicion. More specifically, we will show that appropriate employment of the central limit theorem and the law of large numbers to BP, which is one of the standard techniques in statistical mechanics, makes it possible to develop a novel multiuser detection algorithm the convergence property of which is considerably better than that of the conventional multistage detection without increasing the computational cost significantly. Furthermore, we will also provide a scheme to analyse the dynamics of the proposed algorithm, which can be naturally linked to the equilibrium analysis recently presented by Tanaka.

description: Currently, robotic researchers focus on developing robot systems that are explicitly designed to operate cooperatively with people in public, and provide the resources for projections for humans in public places.Our socio-technological project, engineers developed a robotic wheelchair with attaching a robot in order to provide embodied projective signals to human and designed two settings for the robot’s behavior. One is the robot turns its face towards the human (Face-to-Face model), the other is robot turns its face and they turn around its body in order to index where to go (Body Torque model). The reasons of attaching a robot to a robotic wheelchair and designed two settings are, by analysis of sociologiosts, we reveal how embodied actions of the robot as a resource for projection and considered what kind of projection are possible and how such projections provide the coordination of co-operative actions between multiple people in the public places.

description: We consider defects in 5d field theories corresponding to higher-rank generalizations of the $E_{N_f+1}$ theories; holographically dual to the Brandhuber-Oz background in type I' String Theory. We concentrate on codimension 2 and 1 defects, corresponding, respectively, to 3d and 4d defect Quantum Field Theories. We study holographically such defect theories by considering supersymmetric probe D4- and D6-branes in the $AdS_6$, whose fluctuations allow us to study the spectrum of mesonic operators of the defect theories. In the case of D4-branes, we also consider wrappings in the internal space which can be regarded as generalizations of the configurations capturing the antisymmetric Wilson loop.

description: Obok tych Wielkich Królów pojawia się inna ważna postać – Cyrus, zwany Młodszym (żył w latach ok. 424/423-401). Cyrusa Młodszego ukazuje się często w kontekście podjętej przez niego zbrojnej wyprawy przeciwko Artakserksesowi II, zakończonej bitwą pod Kunaksą, w 401 r., oraz będącego jej bezpośrednim następstwem tzw. odwrotu Dziesięciu Tysięcy. Skupiając uwagę głównie na tych wydarzeniach i udziale w nich Hellenów, wszcześniejsze dokonania i relacje Cyrusa z Grekami schodzą nierzadko na plan dalszy. Na wydarzenia z nim związane spogląda się poza tym najczęściej z perspektywy greckiej, zdeterminowanej przez charakter materiału źródłowego. Na materiał ten składają się bowiem niemal wyłącznie przekazy autorów greckich. Ci jednak nierzadko mylnie interpretowali realia panujące w achemenidzkim Iranie, postrzegając je przez pryzmat spraw helleńskich.
