description: Notre travail prend sa source dans un étonnement face au nombre d'étudiants chinois venus faire leurs études durant l'entre-deux-guerres à l’Institut d’urbanisme de l’Université de Paris (IUUP) qui était alors l’unique lieu d’enseignement officiel en urbanisme en France[1]. Ce questionnement, posé depuis longtemps[2], nous a donné envie d'aller plus loin, et ceci même si la connaissance de ces étudiants est très fragmentaire. Cette contribution à trois mains renvoie à différentes méthodes d'approche du sujet : une approche dite prosopographique tentant d'établir une biographie collective et individuelle de ces étudiants qui forment une cohorte finalement assez cohérente[3].

description: Abstract Exposure to diesel exhaust (DE) is known to exacerbate allergic inflammation, including virus-induced eosinophil activation in laboratory animals. We have previously shown that in human volunteers with allergic rhinitis a short-term exposure to DE prior to infection with the live attenuated influenza virus (LAIV) increases markers of allergic inflammation in the nasal mucosa. Specifically, levels of eosinophilic cationic protein (ECP) were significantly enhanced in individuals exposed to DE prior to inoculation with LAIV and this effect was maintained for at least seven days. However, this previous study was limited in its scope of nasal immune endpoints and did not explore potential mechanisms mediating the prolonged exacerbation of allergic inflammation caused by exposure to DE prior to inoculation with LAIV. In this follow-up study, the methods were modified to expand experimental endpoints and explore the potential role of NK cells. The data presented here suggest DE prolongs viral-induced eosinophil activation, which was accompanied by decreased markers of NK cell recruitment and activation. Separate in vitro studies showed that exposure to DE particles decreases the ability of NK cells to kill eosinophils. Taken together, these follow-up studies suggest that DE-induced exacerbation of allergic inflammation in the context of viral infections may be mediated by decreased activity of NK cells and their ability to clear eosinophils.

description: Since finishing university a few short years ago, I always keep my eyes open for "alternative" learning opportunities. I've usually found these by working overseas. After all, no school can really teach you how to get along with a group in the strangest of situations, how to communicate in an unknown language, or how other cultures actually function. In the fall of 1997, I traveled to Bolivia to volunteer with an organization called AFS. Although some aspects of this experience were frustrating, I learned a great deal about myself and a few things about my profession.

description: The existence of strongly bound excitons is one of the hallmarks of the newly discovered atomically thin semi-conductors. While it is understood that the large binding energy is mainly due to the weak dielectric screening in two dimensions (2D), a systematic investigation of the role of screening on 2D excitons is still lacking. Here we provide a critical assessment of a widely used 2D hydrogenic exciton model which assumes a dielectric function of the form ε(q) = 1 + 2παq, and we develop a quasi-2D model with a much broader applicability. Within the quasi-2D picture, electrons and holes are described as in-plane point charges with a finite extension in the perpendicular direction and their interaction is screened by a dielectric function with a non-linear q-dependence which is computed ab-initio. The screened interaction is used in a generalized Mott-Wannier model to calculate exciton binding energies in both isolated and supported 2D materials. For isolated 2D materials, the quasi-2D treatment yields results almost identical to those of the strict 2D model and both are in good agreement with ab-initio many-body calculations. On the other hand, for more complex structures such as supported layers or layers embedded in a van der Waals heterostructure, the size of the exciton in reciprocal space extends well beyond the linear regime of the dielectric function and a quasi-2D description has to replace the 2D one. Our methodology has the merit of providing a seamless connection between the strict 2D limit of isolated monolayer materials and the more bulk-like screening characteristics of supported 2D materials or van der Waals heterostructures.

description: A key ingredient for quantum photonic technologies is an on-demand source of indistinguishable single photons. State-of-the-art indistinguishable single-photon sources typically employ resonant excitation pulses with fixed repetition rates, creating a string of single photons with predetermined arrival times. However, in future applications, an independent electronic signal from a larger quantum circuit or network will trigger the generation of an indistinguishable photon. Further, operating the photon source up to the limit imposed by its lifetime is desirable. Here, we report on the application of a true on-demand approach in which we can electronically trigger the precise arrival time of a single photon as well as control the excitation pulse duration based on resonance fluorescence from a single InAs/GaAs quantum dot. We investigate in detail the effect of the finite duration of an excitation $π$ pulse on the degree of photon antibunching. Finally, we demonstrate that highly indistinguishable single photons can be generated using this on-demand approach, enabling maximum flexibility for future applications.

description: Cities in East Asia are being transformed in less time than it takes to make an official plan amendment in a Canadian city. This is partly the result of rapid economic growth, but there is another dimension: the transition from a centrally planned economy to a market or capitalist economy. These cities are not just adding new suburbs and downtown high-rises; the whole structure of the metropolitan area is being transformed. New central business districts, new industrial-based districts complete with housing and facilities, and dramatically new forms of residential neighbourhoods and retail areas are developing. If it is to be relevant to managing this change, urban planning must invent approaches that are unlike anything tried in the developed world.

description: This paper presents a novel approach to modeling curiosity in a mobile robot, which is useful for monitoring and adaptive data collection tasks, especially in the context of long term autonomous missions where pre-programmed missions are likely to have limited utility. We use a realtime topic modeling technique to build a semantic perception model of the environment, using which, we plan a path through the locations in the world with high semantic information content. The life-long learning behavior of the proposed perception model makes it suitable for long-term exploration missions. We validate the approach using simulated exploration experiments using aerial and underwater data, and demonstrate an implementation on the Aqua underwater robot in a variety of scenarios. We find that the proposed exploration paths that are biased towards locations with high topic perplexity, produce better terrain models with high discriminative power. Moreover, we show that the proposed algorithm implemented on Aqua robot is able to do tasks such as coral reef inspection, diver following, and sea floor exploration, without any prior training or preparation.

description: Abstract Introduction Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the major cause of dementia among the elderly. Finding blood-based biomarkers for disease diagnosis and prognosis is urgently needed. Methods We studied protein distributions in brain tissues, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and blood of AD patients by using proteomics and a new proteomic method that we call “2D multiplexed Western blot” (2D mxWd). This method allows us to determine in multiple samples the electrophoretic patterns of protein isoforms with different isoelectric points. Results Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) displays a unique distribution of electrophoretic isoforms in the presence of AD and also a unique pattern specific to the APOE genotype. Conclusions The isoelectric distribution of differentially charged ApoE isoforms was used to determine the presence of AD in a small group of samples. Further studies are needed to validate their use as predictors of disease onset and progression, and as biomarkers for determining the efficacy of therapeutic treatments.

description: Ecological rehabilitation requires expertise in technical fields but will not succeed without professional planners to ensure that small-scale rehabilitation projects are designed and implemented to meet larger (regional) objectives. Using the example of eleven projects in the Regional Municipality of Waterloo, we provide guidelines for planners and planning policy that promote effective local, urban ecological rehabilitation. Snowball sampling and interviews with sixteen practitioners of ecological rehabilitation revealed that the Official Policies Plans of Waterloo Region and local municipalities did not provide explicit guidance or co-ordination in ecological rehabilitation. More broadly, provincial, regional and local governments lack specific approaches to the use ecological rehabilitation for landscape planning. If planners were more involved in the process of ecological rehabilitation, these problems would likely be resolved. Planners are politically influential and are in the best position to negotiate the conflicting demands of development, conservation and ecological rehabilitation.
description: La réhabilitation écologique exige des connaissances techniques approfondies mais ne peut être menée à bien sans des urbanistes professionnels si l'on veut que les projets de réhabilitation locaux s'inscrivent dans un plan d'ensemble (à l'échelle régionale). Prenant pour exemple onze projets établis pour la municipalité régionale de Waterloo, nous mettons à la disposition des lecteurs des lignes directrices écrites à l'intention des urbanistes et, parallèlement, une politique d'aménagement pour le succès de la réhabilitation écologique dans les milieux urbains. Un échantillonnage et des entrevues avec seize responsables de la réhabilitation écologique ont révélé que les politiques officielles de la région de Waterloo et des municipalités locales ne prévoient aucune directive ni aucune coordination en vue de la réhabilitation écologique. En fait, on constate une absence d'approche spécifique quant à l'utilisation de la réhabilitation écologique dans l'aménagement du paysage, et ce tant au niveau provincial, que régional ou municipal. Si les urbanistes s'engageient davantage dans les processus de réhabilitation écologique, ces problèmes seraient sans doute résolus. Les urbanistes exercent une certaine influence au niveau politique et sont particulièrement bien placés pour gérer les situations où s'opposent développement, conservation de la nature et réhabilitation écologique.

description: Abstract Background Few randomized studies have examined differential effects of group size in behavioral weight control, especially in hybrid programs that include Internet treatment approaches. Methods Randomized controlled trial (n = 195) comparing a 4 month hybrid internet weight loss program coupled with monthly face to face groups of 100 persons (Large Group, LG; 1 group) or to the same approach with monthly groups of 20 persons (Small Group, SG; 4 groups). Repeated-measures mixed-model analysis with age and race as covariates were used to estimate primary (weight) and secondary outcomes, and to test group differences in change over time. Results The sample was 46.3 years old ±10.4, 90.3% female, and 51.9% non-white, with BMI 37.9 ± 8.4 kg/m2. Participants in the LG were more likely to return for the 4-month assessment visit than those in the SG (p = 0.04). Participants randomized to both the LG and SG conditions experienced significant WL over time (no between group difference: −4.1 kg and −3.7 kg, respectively) and weight loss was positively associated with attendance at monthly meetings and logins to the website. Satisfaction with the program was high and similar in both groups (94.4% reported that they were “satisfied” or “very satisfied”). Conclusions Using a hybrid approach of in-person and online weight loss interventions may be an effective way to reach larger and more diverse populations. Delivering the face to face component of the intervention in groups larger than those traditionally delivered (20–25 people) could increase the cost-effectiveness of group-based behavioral weight loss interventions.

description: The dynamic behavior of vortex pairs in two-component coherently (Rabi) coupled Bose-Einstein condensates is investigated in the presence of harmonic trapping. We discuss the role of the surface tension associated with the domain wall connecting two vortices in condensates of atoms occupying different spin states and its effect on the precession of the vortex pair. The results, based on the numerical solution of the Gross-Pitaevskii equations, are compared with the predictions of an analytical macroscopic model and are discussed as a function of the size of the pair, the Rabi coupling and the inter-component interaction. We show that the increase of the Rabi coupling results in the disintegration of the domain wall into smaller pieces, connecting vortices of new-created vortex pairs. The resulting scenario is the analogue of quark confinement and string breaking in quantum chromodynamics.

QTLs of factors of the metabolic syndrome and echocardiographic phenotypes: the Hypertension Genetic Epidemiology Network Study
Creators: name: North, Kari

Year: 2008

description: Abstract Background In a previous study of the Hypertension Genetic Epidemiology Network (HyperGEN) we have shown that metabolic syndrome (MetS) risk factors were moderately and significantly associated with echocardiographic (ECHO) left ventricular (LV) phenotypes. Methods The study included 1,393 African Americans and 1,133 whites, stratified by type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) status. Heritabilities of seven factor scores based on the analysis of 15 traits were sufficiently high to pursue QTL discovery in this follow-up study. Results Three of the QTLs discovered relate to combined MetS-ECHO factors of "blood pressure (BP)-LV wall thickness" on chromosome 3 at 225 cM with a 2.8 LOD score, on chromosome 20 at 2.1 cM with a 2.6 LOD score; and for "LV wall thickness" factor on chromosome 16 at 113.5 with a 2.6 LOD score in whites. The remaining QTLs include one for a "body mass index-insulin (BMI-INS)" factor with a LOD score of 3.9 on chromosome 2 located at 64.8 cM; one for the same factor on chromosome 12 at 91.4 cM with a 3.3 LOD score; one for a "BP" factor on chromosome 19 located at 67.8 cM with a 3.0 LOD score. A suggestive linkage was also found for "Lipids-INS" with a 2.7 LOD score located on chromosome 11 at 113.1 cM in African Americans. Of the above QTLs, the one on chromosome 12 for "BMI-INS" is replicated in both ethnicities, (with highest LOD scores in African Americans). In addition, the QTL for "LV wall thickness" on chromosome 16q24.2-q24.3 reached its local maximum LOD score at marker D16S402, which is positioned within the 5th intron of the cadherin 13 gene, implicated in heart and vascular remodeling. Conclusion Our previous study and this follow-up suggest gene loci for some crucial MetS and cardiac geometry risk factors that contribute to the risk of developing heart disease.

description: Psychotherapy incorporating equine interaction (PIE) is emerging as an effective treatment for substance use disorder (SUD); however, research concerning physiological impacts of PIE during substance withdrawal is lacking. This study investigated impacts of PIE on salivary cortisol concentrations and heart rates in SUD patients during withdrawal. Heart rate and cortisol concentrations were also measured in horses to investigate potential human-horse coupling during PIE. Saliva samples and heart rates were collected from SUD patients (n=18) and their therapy horses (n=4) prior to the introduction of the horse and following equine interaction within a residential psychotherapy program during the substance withdrawal period. Without the presence of the horse, the equine environment during the first week of withdrawal produced lower (P ≤ 0.05) cortisol and heart rate measures than found in the equine interaction for the SUD patients. Human heart rates, however, decreased (P = 0.01) in the second week in response to the equine interaction. A strong negative correlation (r = -0.9, P < 0.01) was found within the changes in human and horse cortisol concentrations during week two as human cortisol concentrations decreased while horse cortisol concentrations increased. Results indicate equine interaction during psychotherapy is more effective in the second week than the first at mitigating stress for withdrawing residential SUD treatment program patients and the equid environment, even without the presence of a horse, can positively impact stress parameters in withdrawing SUD patients during the first week of treatment.

description: In der heutigen Welt der Massenkommunikation und der Globalisierung treten immer häufiger bestimmte Fragen auf: Was bedeutet es, einer bestimmten Nationalität anzugehören? Spielt die Nationalität überhaupt eine Rolle? Auch wenn es sich um ein abstraktes Thema wie die nationale Identität handelt, werden quantitative Methoden dennoch häufig verwendet, da sie eine wichtige Grundlage für weitere Forschung und Mustererkennung darstellen. Sie sind der erste Schritt, die Grundlage, auf der man verschiedenste Forschungen von zunehmender Komplexität durchführen kann. Diese Arbeit wird eine solche Grundlage bilden. Eine quantitative Analyse von Daten, mit einer Vielzahl von Methoden, die von der Faktorenanalyse bis zur Clusteranalyse reichen, um die Frage der nationalen Identität auf den Grund zu gehen.
description: In today’s world of mass communication and globalization, a number questions seem to be coming up at an increasing rate: what does it mean to belong to a certain nationality? Does nationality even matter? Even when it comes to an abstract topic such as national identity, quantitative methods are widely used, as they offer an important groundwork for further research and pattern recognition. They are the first step, the foundation on which one can conduct various researches of increasing complexity. This paper will introduce such a foundation, a quantitative analysis of data, using a variety of methods ranging from the Factor Analysis to Cluster Analysis in an attempt to shed light on the question of national identity.

description: Longitudinal spin Seebeck effect has been investigated for an uniaxial antiferromagnetic insulator Cr2O3, characterized by a spin-flop transition under magnetic field along the c-axis. We have found that temperature gradient applied normal to Cr2O3/Pt interface induces inverse spin Hall voltage of spin current origin in Pt, whose magnitude turns out to be always proportional to magnetization in Cr2O3. The observed voltage shows significant enhancement for the lower temperature region, which can be ascribed to the phonon-drag effect on the relevant spin excitations. The above results establish that antiferromagnetic spin waves with high frequency above 100 GHz can be an effective carrier of spin current.

Patient and physician factors influence decision-making in hypercholesterolemia: a questionnaire-based survey

description: Abstract Background Goal attainment of guideline-recommended low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is suboptimal. Little is known about how patient factors influence physicians’ treatment decision-making in hypercholesterolemia. We examined physicians’ treatment recommendations in high-risk patients whose LDL-C remained uncontrolled despite statin monotherapy. Methods Physicians completed a questionnaire prior to randomization into period I of a two-period randomized controlled trial evaluating LDL-C goal attainment in patients whose LDL-C remained ≥100 mg/dL after 5 weeks’ treatment with atorvastatin 10 mg/day (NCT01154036). Physicians’ treatment recommendations were surveyed for two hypothetical and one real scenario: (1) LDL-C presumed near goal (between 100–105 mg/dL), (2) LDL-C presumed far from goal (~120 mg/dL), and (3) observed baseline LDL-C of enrolled patients. Prognostic factors considered during decision-making were identified by regression analysis. Observed lipid outcomes at the end of period I (following 6 weeks’ treatment with ezetimibe 10 mg plus atorvastatin 10 mg, atorvastatin 20 mg, or rosuvastatin 10 mg) were compared with estimated LDL-C outcomes for physicians’ treatment recommendations after 6 weeks (based on individual patients’ pre-randomization LDL-C and expected incremental change). Results Questionnaires were completed for 1,534 patients. No change in therapy, or double atorvastatin dose, were frequently recommended, even when LDL-C was far from goal (6.5% and 52.2% of patients, respectively). Double atorvastatin dose was commonly recommended in all scenarios (43–52% of patients). More intensive LDL-C-lowering regimens were recommended infrequently e.g. double atorvastatin dose and add ezetimibe only <12% in all scenarios. Overall, cardiovascular risk factors and desire to achieve a more aggressive LDL-C goal were prominent factors in decision-making for treatment. Comparison of observed and estimated LDL-C levels showed that physicians tended to overestimate the effectiveness of their recommendations. Conclusions This study provides insight into physicians’ perspectives on clinical management of hypercholesterolemia and highlights a gap in knowledge translation from guidelines to clinical practice. The need for lower LDL-C and cardiovascular risk were key drivers in clinical decision-making, but physicians’ treatment choices were more conservative than guideline recommendations, potentially resulting in poorer LDL-C reduction. When compared with actual outcomes, projected LDL-C control was better if physicians used more comprehensive strategies rather than simply doubling the statin dose.

The laws of thermodynamics and information for emergent cosmology

description: The aim here is to provide a set of equations for cosmology in terms of information and thermodynamical parameters. The method we implement in order to describe the universe is a development of Padmanabhan\rq{}s approach which is based on the fact that emergence of the cosmic space is provided by the evolution of the cosmic time. In this line we obtain the Friedmann equation or its equivalent the conservation law in terms of information by the implementation of Laundauer\rq{}s principle or in other words the information loss/production rate. Hence, a self consistent description of the universe is provided in terms of thermodynamical parameters. This is due to the fact that in this work the role of information which is the most important actor of all times, has stepped in to cosmology. We provide a picture of the emergent cosmology merely based on the information theory. In addition, we introduce a novel entropy on the horizon, which can also generalize Bekenstein-Hawking entropy for the asymptotic holographic principle.

description: Shelah-Woodin investigate the possibility of violating instances of $GCH$ through the addition of a single real. In particular they show that it is possible to obtain a failure of $CH$ by adding a single real to a model of $GCH$, preserving cofinalities. In this article we strengthen their result by showing that it is possible to violate $GCH$ at all infinite cardinals by adding a single real to a model of $GCH.$ Our assumption is the existence of an $H(κ^{+3})$-strong cardinal, by work of Gitik and Mitchell it is known that more than an $H(κ^{++})$-strong cardinal is required.
The Hôtel Drouot as the stock exchange for art. Financialization of art auctions in the nineteenth century

description: Throughout historic developments, the publicly ascertained and published price of an artwork repeatedly served as a reference point for art theoretical discussion. Particular importance was attached to the auction sale price, since this financial evaluation of art was of such a public nature. While there is a long history of these ideas about the pricing of art, there are notable times of transition, one of which can be identified in France in the middle of the nineteenth century. The context at the time was the foundation of the auction house Hôtel Drouot as the new central location for handling art in Paris. Through historic articles and books about Hôtel Drouot it becomes apparent that a discussion was underway about the financialization of art, which led to a description of the auction house as the stock exchange for art. At the same time, the rising importance of the auction market for living artists was a key factor in a changed understanding of the relationship between art and money.
