description: Ο ομαλός λειχήνας στόματος είναι μία νόσος αγν. αιτιολογίας. Σκοπός της παρούσας έρευνας ήταν ο έλεγχος της συμμετοχής του κυτταρικού και του χημικού σκέλους της ειδικής ανοσιακής απάντησης στην αιτιοπαθογένεια της νόσου. Ο έλεγχος έγινε ανάλογα με την παραγωγή των χαρακτιριστικών ΤΗ1 κυτταροκινών(IGN-γ, IL-2, IL-2, TNF-a) και ΤΗ2 κυτταροκινών(IL-4, IL-10, IL-5, IL-6) από τα μονοπύρηνα κύτταρα του περιφερικού αίματος, ανάμεσα σε ασθενείς με ομαλό λειχήνα του στόματος και σε υγιείς μάρτυρες. Στην παρούσα έρευνα εφαρμόστηκε η μέθοδος ELISPOT. Τ υλικό της έρευνας αποτέλεσαν 80 ασθενείς με ομαλό λειχήνα του στόματος και 80 μάρτυρες. Τα αποτελέσματα έδειξαν ελαττωμένη έκφραση των κυττάρων για τις κυτταροκίνες IFN-γ(ρ<0.05), IL-12(p<0.05), IL-2(p>0.05), TNF-a(p<0.005) και για τις ΤΗ2 κυτταροκίνες IL-5(p<0.001), IL-10(p<0.001), IL-6(p>0.05) στους ασθενείς με Ο.Λ.Σ., ενώ ο αριθμός των κυττάρων που εξέφραζαν την IL-4 βρέθηκε αυξημένος(p>0.005) στους ασθενείς αυτούς
description: Oral lichen planus is a T cell mediated immune disease of unknown etiology. In our study we aimed to detect IFN-γ, IL-12, IL-2, TNFa and IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-10 producing cells in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC) in 80 oral lichen planus patients and in healthy control group. Cytocine producing cells in PBMC were detected using ELISPOT method. Results have shown impaired PBMC function and suppression of the cellular arm of immune response(TH1 immune response). Although there was decreased number of IL-5, IL-10, IL-6 cytokine producing cells in OLD patients, the slightly increased number of IL-4 producing cells does not suggest suppression of TH2 immune response

Late-Time Convection in the Collapse of a 23 Solar Mass Star

description: The results of a 3-dimensional SNSPH simulation of the core collapse of a 23 solar mass star are presented. This simulation did not launch an explosion until over 600ms after collapse, allowing an ideal opportunity to study the evolution and structure of the convection below the accretion shock to late times. This late-time convection allows us to study several of the recent claims in the literature about the role of convection: is it dominated by an l=1 mode driven by vortical-acoustic (or other) instability, does it produce strong neutron star kicks, and, finally, is it the key to a new explosion mechanism? The convective region buffets the neutron star, imparting a 150-200 km/s kick. Because the l=1 mode does not dominate the convection, the neutron star does not achieve large (>450 km/s) velocities. Finally, the neutron star in this simulation moves, but does not develop strong oscillations, the energy source for a recently proposed supernova engine. We discuss the implications these results have on supernovae, hypernovae (and gamma-ray bursts), and stellar-massed black holes.

Year: 2018

description: Background: Orthostatic tremor (OT) is a weight-bearing hyperkinetic disorder characterized by unsteadiness while standing that is relieved when sitting or walking. Case report: A 66-year-old male presented with a 5 year-history of tremor in his abdomen, but only when he stood in a stationary position. The tremor disappeared when he stood or walked. On examination, he had palpable tremor in his rectus abdominis and gastrocnemius virtually instantaneously after standing. His electromyography findings confirmed the presence of a 12-Hz tremor in the tibialis anterior while standing, with subharmonics recorded in the external obliques and rectus abdominis. Discussion: Our case illustrates an unusual presentation of OT. The diagnosis is supported by its characteristic frequency and specific appearance only during upright stance.

description: Software maintenance constitutes a large portion of the software development lifecycle. To carry out maintenance tasks, developers often need to understand and reproduce bug reports. As such, there has been increasing research activity coalescing around the notion of automating various activities related to bug reporting. A sizable portion of this research interest has focused on the domain of mobile apps. However, as research around mobile app bug reporting progresses, there is a clear need for a manually vetted and reproducible set of real-world bug reports that can serve as a benchmark for future work. This paper presents ANDROR2: a dataset of 90 manually reproduced bug reports for Android apps listed on Google Play and hosted on GitHub, systematically collected via an in-depth analysis of 459 reports extracted from the GitHub issue tracker. For each reproduced report, ANDROR2 includes the original bug report, an apk file for the buggy version of the app, an executable reproduction script, and metadata regarding the quality of the reproduction steps associated with the original report. We believe that the ANDROR2 dataset can be used to facilitate research in automatically analyzing, understanding, reproducing, localizing, and fixing bugs for mobile applications as well as other software maintenance activities more broadly.

description: Background: The diagnosis of dystonia can be clinically challenging due to its heterogeneous presentation; essential tremor (ET) is a more common neurological disorder, but may be mimicked by other movement disorders, including dystonia, leading to misdiagnosis. Phenomenology Shown: In three patients with hand tremor, two with prior diagnoses of ET, we present examples of “spooning” of the hands, characterized by wrist flexion and metacarpophalangeal hyperextension. Educational value: Subtle dystonic features such as “spooning” may be present during the evaluation of patients with tremor and aid in the diagnosis of dystonia.

description: We calculate the finite-temperature r-mode spectrum of a superfluid neutron star accounting for both muons in the core and the entrainment between neutrons and protons. We show that the standard perturbation scheme, considering the rotation rate as an expansion parameter, breaks down in this case. We develop an original perturbation scheme which circumvents this problem by treating both the perturbations due to rotation and (weak) entrainment simultaneously. Applying this scheme, we propose a simple method for calculating the superfluid r-mode eigenfrequency in the limit of vanishing rotation rate. We also calculate the r-mode spectrum at finite rotation rate for realistic microphysics input (adopting, however, the Newtonian framework and Cowling approximation when considering perturbed oscillation equations) and show that the normal r-mode exhibits resonances with superfluid r-modes at certain values of temperatures and rotation frequencies in the parameter range relevant to neutron stars in low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs). This turns the recently suggested phenomenological model of resonance r-mode stabilization into a quantitative theory, capable of explaining observations. A strong dependence of resonance rotation rates and temperatures on the neutron superfluidity model allows us to constrain the latter by confronting our calculations with the observations of neutron stars in LMXBs.

Addressing Italy’s urban flooding problems through the holistic watershed approach by using blue/green infrastructure

Publisher: name: UPLanD - Journal of Urban Planning, Landscape & environmental Design
Year: 2019

description: Water resources have been neglected and stressed for many years, as anthropogenic changes in watersheds have increased runoff, decreased infiltration and aquifer recharge, caused stream incision and streambank erosion and degraded water quality and water resources. The watershed is the management unit to begin to solve stormwater problems and flooding issues. Reversing the mismanagement from the past is a complicated process and must consider a holistic approach factoring in all the processes that cause the aforementioned problems. There are many technological tools such as GIS and hydrologic, hydraulic and water quality models that help pinpoint the sources of problems in the watershed and help derive at a comprehensive solution. The objective of this paper is to provide researchers and practitioners a systematic, methodical and proven approach to documenting and solving water management issues cause by unmanaged anthropogenic changes that have occurred in rural and urban watersheds. There are many regulations and literature about flooding and watershed plans with very detailed guidelines composed by state authorities, however, there are few that completely address the comprehensive, inclusive approach to watershed management to solve a variety of problems. For example, the State of Pennsylvania, USA has separate flood plain management, stormwater management, erosion and sediment pollution control and nonpoint discharge and elimination system (NPDES), and water supply / wellhead protection programs and regulations as opposed to one single “water resources management” regulatory program. This paper defines an innovative approach to overcome some of the restrictions placed on engineers and planners by regulatory programs.

Με βάση το διάβημα του μεταμοντέρνου φεμινισμού εξετάζει την παραστασιακή επιτέλεση και την ποιητική των ανδρισμών, αγοριών και κοριτσιών, όπως αυτού σχηματίζονται, ανα-σχηματίζονται και μετα-σχηματίζονται μέσα από διαδικασίες αμφισβήτησης και διαπραγμάτευσης στα σχολικά συγκείμενα. Το ερευνητικό υλικό έχει συλλεχθεί με την τεχνική των ημι-δομημένων συνεντεύξεων και της "περιστασιακής" παρατήρησης και η ανάλυσή του έγινε με βάση τη φεμινιστική κριτική ανάλυση λόγου. Το σχολείο της έρευνας υιοθετούσε ένα ήθος ηγεμονικού ανδρισμού, αλλά σχολείο και μαθητές/τριες εμπλέκονταν σε μία συνεχή διαπραγμάτευση αυτών των έκφυλων "ταυτοτήτων". Η ποικιλία των ανδρισμών που παρατηρήθηκε δε φάνηκε να αποκλίνει σημαντικά από τα όρια του ηγεμονικού ανδρισμού, καθώς συγκροτούνταν μέσα στους πυλώνες της ετεροσεξουαλικότητας, της ομοφυλοφοβίας και του μισογυνισμού
description: The present study looks into constant constructing and re-constructing of boys' male "identities" by searching issues of heterosexuality, homophobia and misogyny in the context of a primary southern Greece. The study, based on postmodern feminism and the theory of gender performance, looks at male "identities" as exceptionally fluid and constantly forming, re-forming and trans-forming through procedures of dispute and negotiation. The sense of "normativity" that the discourse on the heterosexual facts, as well as the discourse on homophobia state, are key points of boys'(and girls') efforts to construct dominant forms of masculinities and feminities. The techniques of semi-structured interviews has been used to collect the corpus giving the subjects(male and female pupils and teaching staff) the opportunity and practice, whereas feminist critical discourse analysis has been used to analyze the interviews
Four-quark condensates and chiral symmetry restoration in a resonance gas model

Year: 2006
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: As an alternative to the two-quark condensate we propose a specific four-quark condensate as an order parameter of chiral symmetry restoration. We show that this four-quark condensate is closer connected to observable quantities. Within a resonance gas model we calculate the in-medium changes of two- and four-quark condensate as functions of temperature and baryo-chemical potential. In this way we estimate the line of chiral symmetry restoration in the temperature-potential plane and also as a function of energy and baryon density. It turns out that the line determined from the vanishing of the four-quark condensate is extremely constant as a function of the energy density.

description: Using the fact that extremum of variation of generalized action can lead to the fractional dynamics in the case of systems with long-range interaction and long-term memory function, we consider two different applications of the action principle: generalized Noether's theorem and Hamiltonian type equations. In the first case, we derive conservation laws in the form of continuity equations that consist of fractional time-space derivatives. Among applications of these results, we consider a chain of coupled oscillators with a power-wise memory function and power-wise interaction between oscillators. In the second case, we consider an example of fractional differential action 1-form and find the corresponding Hamiltonian type equations from the closed condition of the form.

description: This paper presents a novel and effective deep reinforcement learning (DRL)-based approach to addressing joint resource management (JRM) in a practical multi-carrier non-orthogonal multiple access (MC-NOMA) system, where hardware sensitivity and imperfect successive interference cancellation (SIC) are considered. We first formulate the JRM problem to maximize the weighted-sum system throughput. Then, the JRM problem is decoupled into two iterative subtasks: subcarrier assignment (SA, including user grouping) and power allocation (PA). Each subtask is a sequential decision process. Invoking a deep deterministic policy gradient algorithm, our proposed DRL-based JRM (DRL-JRM) approach jointly performs the two subtasks, where the optimization objective and constraints of the subtasks are addressed by a new joint reward and internal reward mechanism. A multi-agent structure and a convolutional neural network are adopted to reduce the complexity of the PA subtask. We also tailor the neural network structure for the stability and convergence of DRL-JRM. Corroborated by extensive experiments, the proposed DRL-JRM scheme is superior to existing alternatives in terms of system throughput and resistance to interference, especially in the presence of many users and strong inter-cell interference. DRL-JRM can flexibly meet individual service requirements of users.

description: We use analytic calculations and time-dependent spherically-symmetric simulations to study the properties of isothermal galactic winds driven by cosmic-rays (CRs) streaming at the Alfvén velocity. The simulations produce time-dependent flows permeated by strong shocks; we identify a new linear instability of sound waves that sources these shocks. The shocks substantially modify the wind dynamics, invalidating previous steady state models: the CR pressure $p_c$ has a staircase-like structure with $dp_c/dr \simeq 0$ in most of the volume, and the time-averaged CR energetics are in many cases better approximated by $p_c \propto ρ^{1/2}$, rather than the canonical $p_c \propto ρ^{2/3}$. Accounting for this change in CR energetics, we analytically derive new expressions for the mass-loss rate, momentum flux, wind speed, and wind kinetic power in galactic winds driven by CR streaming. We show that streaming CRs are ineffective at directly driving cold gas out of galaxies, though CR-driven winds in hotter ISM phases may entrain cool gas. For the same physical conditions, diffusive CR transport (Paper I) yields mass-loss rates that are a few-100 times larger than streaming transport, and asymptotic wind powers that are a factor of $\simeq 4$ larger. We discuss the implications of our results for galactic wind theory and observations; strong shocks driven by CR-streaming-induced instabilities produce gas with a wide range of densities and temperatures, consistent with the multiphase nature of observed winds. We also quantify the applicability of the isothermal gas approximation for modeling streaming CRs and highlight the need for calculations with more realistic thermodynamics.

Reduced Frequency of Ipsilateral Express Saccades in Cervical Dystonia: Probing the Nigro-Tectal Pathway

description: Background: Cervical dystonia is a hyperkinetic movement disorder of unknown cause. Symptoms of cervical dystonia have been induced in animals in which the integrity of the nigro-tectal pathway is disrupted, resulting in reduced inhibition of the deep layers of the superior colliculus. This same pathway is believed to play a critical role in saccade generation, particularly visually guided, express saccades. It was hypothesized that individuals with cervical dystonia would present with a higher frequency of express saccades and more directional errors. Methods: Eight individuals with cervical dystonia and 11 age- and sex-matched control participants performed three saccadic paradigms: pro-saccade, gap, and anti-saccade (120 trials per task). Eye movements were recorded using electro-oculography. Results: Mean saccadic reaction times were slower in the cervical dystonia group (only statistically significant in the anti-saccade task, F(1, 35) 5 4.76, p 5 0.036); participants with cervical dystonia produced fewer directional errors (mean 14% vs. 22%) in the anti-saccade task; and had similar frequencies of express saccades in the gap task relative to our control population (chi-square 5 1.13, p 5 0.287). All cervical dystonia participants had lower frequencies of express saccades ipsilateral to their dystonic side (the side to which their head turns), (chi-square 5 3.57, p 5 0.059). Discussion: The finding of slower saccadic reaction times in cervical dystonia does not support the concept of reduced inhibition in the nigro-tectal pathway. Further research is required to confirm the observed relationship between the lateralization of lower frequencies of express saccades and direction of head rotation in cervical dystonia.

description: In today's networks, transmission of multimedia traffic with varying quality of service requirements, introduces many challenges in traffic management. The purpose of this thesis was a)the analysis and design of algorithms concerning the QoS routing problem subject to one or more constraints, in order to optimize the network operation, by finding optimal paths that satisfy the requirements of each request b)the implementation of these algorithms to various applications in order to solve complex network problems. Within this framework we analyzed and designed two new efficient algorithms for the QoS routing problem subject to additive constraints, with small running time performance. Furthermore, the latter algorithms as well as two new algorithms were designed, for the precomputation of constrained widest paths. We also considered the constrained widest multicast tree problem and proved tha using the precomputed constrained widest paths, an algorithm can be developed that computes very efficient the required tree. Finally, we presented a pseydopolynomial algorithm and a polynomial algorithm that provided quaranteed problem of replicated server placement such as the total cost of placing the servers and the operating cost is minimized, while respecting the round-trip delay constraints

description: We investigate the creation and control of emergent collective behavior and quantum correlations using feedback in an emitter-waveguide system using a minimal model. Employing homodyne detection of photons emitted from a laser-driven emitter ensemble into the modes of a waveguide allows to generate intricate dynamical phases. In particular, we show the emergence of a time-crystal phase, the transition to which is controlled by the feedback strength. Feedback enables furthermore the control of many-body quantum correlations, which become manifest in spin squeezing in the emitter ensemble. Developing a theory for the dynamics of fluctuation operators we discuss how the feedback strength controls the squeezing and investigate its temporal dynamics and dependence on system size. The largely analytical results allow to quantify spin squeezing and fluctuations in the limit of large number of emitters, revealing critical scaling of the squeezing close to the transition to the time-crystal. Our study corroborates the potential of integrated emitter-waveguide systems -- which feature highly controllable photon emission channels -- for the exploration of collective quantum phenomena and the generation of resources, such as squeezed states, for quantum enhanced metrology.

Self-criticism and dependency as vulnerability factors to depression
Creators: name: Franche, Renée-Louise
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The present study investigated the interpersonal schemata of self-criticism and interpersonal dependency as cognitive vulnerability factors to depression. The study's primary hypothesis was that dependency and self-criticism schemata remain stable at remission and that they are independent of mood. Stability in these two factors was related both to their self-report at remission and to their endurance as components influencing the information processing of patients during remission. Twenty clinically depressed individuals, 20 remitted depressives, and 20 normal controls were compared on memory tasks, a modified Stroop task, the Depressive Experience Questionnaire (DEQ) and the Interpersonal Dependency Inventory (IDI). The above instruments converged to measure dependency and self-criticism. Current and remitted depressives reported significantly higher levels of self-criticism and interpersonal dependency than the normal control group, when measured by the DEQ and the IDI. Performance on the three memory tasks was more ambiguous. For the free recall task, remitted depressives recalled more self-critical traits than other traits; however, the control group also recalled more self-critical traits than dependent ones, and the current depressives did not show the predicted bias. Performance on the recognition and impression formation tasks did not support' the study's main hypothesis. For the Stroop interference scores, currently depressed individuals demonstrated a trend to have more interference on the mood-congruent cards than the normal control group. Overall, the three components of the study -- questionnaires, memory tasks and Stroop task -- elicited three different patterns of results. The DEQ and the IDI indicated the presence of self-criticism and dependency in both current and remitted depressives, and thus supported the schemata's stability and independence from mood. Performance on the memory tasks offered weak support to the proposition that remitted depressives process information according to a self-critical schema, although no evidence was obtained for the dependent schema. Results of performance on the Stroop task suggested the presence of a mood congruent attentional bias in currently depressed individuals; however, no evidence was found for a self-critical or dependent attentional bias in either groups of depressives. Two explanations are offered to interpret the conflicting findings. First, a negative mood induction may be necessary to prime the interpersonal schemata. Second, tasks that are more self-focused, such as the questionnaires, than other-focused, such as the memory and Stroop tasks, may be needed to activate the schemata.

description: Analyzing spin transport of quasi-2D electrons gas moving through a semiconductor wave guide subject to a sectionally homogeneous tilted magnetic field, we found well-defined selection rules for resonant and antiresonant spin carrier transmission. Based on these selection rules and the band shift induced by the magnetic field strength and the tilting angles, we propose an efficient spin inversion device. For a polarized incoming electron beam, we can determine from our theoretical approach, physical conditions for spin-inversion efficiency up to 80%. We visualize this mechanism in terms of conductance and the spacial behavior of the wave function amplitude along the superlattice.

description: Comprehensive knowledge of local flame displacement speed, $S_d$, in turbulent premixed flames is crucial towards the design and development of hydrogen fuelled next-generation engines. Premixed hydrogen-air flames are characterized by significantly higher laminar flame speed compared to other conventional fuels. Furthermore, in the presence of turbulence, $S_d$ is enhanced much beyond its corresponding unstretched, planar laminar value $S_L$. In this study, the effect of high Karlovitz number ($Ka$) turbulence on density-weighted flame displacement speed, $\widetilde{S_d}$, in a H$_2$-air flame is investigated. Recently, it has been identified that flame-flame interactions in regions of large negative curvature govern large deviations of $\widetilde{S_d}$ from $S_L$, for moderately turbulent flames. An interaction model for the same has also been proposed. In this work, we seek to test the interaction model's applicability to intensely turbulent flames characterized by large $Ka$. To that end, we investigate the local flame structures: thermal, chemical structure, the effect of curvature, along the direction that is normal to the chosen isothermal surfaces. Furthermore, relative contributions of the transport and chemistry terms to $\widetilde{S_d}$ are also analyzed. It is found that, unlike the moderately turbulent premixed flames, where enhanced $\widetilde{S_d}$ is driven by interactions among complete flame structures, $\widetilde{S_d}$ enhancement in high $Re_t$ and high $Ka$ flame is predominantly governed by local interactions of the isotherms. It is found that enhancement in $\widetilde{S_d}$ in regions of large negative curvature occurs as a result of these interactions, evincing that the interaction model is useful for high $Ka$ turbulent premixed flames as well.

description: Background: Tremor is the most common movement disorder; however, the pathophysiology of tremor remains elusive. While several neuropathological alterations in tremor disorders have been observed in post-mortem studies of human brains, a full understanding of the relationship between brain circuitry alterations and tremor requires testing in animal models. Additionally, tremor animal models are critical for our understanding of tremor pathophysiology, and/or to serve as a platform for therapy development. Methods: A PubMed search was conducted in May 2018 to identify published papers for review. Results: The methodology used in most studies on animal models of tremor lacks standardized measurement of tremor frequency and amplitude; instead, these studies are based on the visual inspection of phenotypes, which may fail to delineate tremor from other movement disorders such as ataxia. Of the animal models with extensive tremor characterization, harmaline-induced rodent tremor models provide an important framework showing that rhythmic and synchronous neuronal activities within the olivocerebellar circuit can drive action tremor. In addition, dopamine-depleted monkey and mouse models may develop rest tremor, highlighting the role of dopamine in rest tremor generation. Finally, other animal models of tremor have involvement of the cerebellar circuitry, leading to altered Purkinje cell physiology. Discussion: Both the cerebellum and the basal ganglia are likely to play a role in tremor generation. While the cerebellar circuitry can generate rhythmic movements, the nigrostriatal system is likely to modulate the tremor circuit. Tremor disorders are heterogeneous in nature. Therefore, each animal model may represent a subset of tremor disorders, which collectively can advance our understanding of tremor.
