subject: Donabedian’s structure–process–outcome conceptual model

description: Clinicians are responsible for ensuring that their knowledge and skills are aligned with contemporary evidence and practice. This responsibility is reflected in the objectives of regulatory bodies such as the International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners (IBLCE). However, there is no research evidence indicating what influences International Board Certified Lactation Consultants (IBCLCs) to continue to advance their practice. This study sought to address this gap in knowledge by investigating the IBCLCs perceptions of the structures and processes that influenced them in advancing their practice beyond initial certification. An interpretive approach was used to gain an in-depth understanding of the complex and contextualised interplay of the professional, cultural, personal, financial and other influential factors that affected the advancement of IBCLCs’ clinical practice. Donabedian’s structure–process–outcome conceptual model was used to guide the study. Exploratory sequential, mixed methods case study and qualitative– quantitative studies were conducted in two phases. Phase 1 comprised two pilot interviews, six focus groups of 37 IBCLCs from 10 different countries and seven staff interviews; the analysis involved thematic analysis. Phase 2 was an online questionnaire survey with fixed choice and open-ended questions, which was piloted and then emailed to 26,173 IBCLCs from 94 countries; the data were analysed using descriptive statistics and content analysis.

description: We study the classical Antonov problem (of retrieving the statistical equilibrium properties of a self-gravitating gas of classical particles obeying Boltzmann statistics in space and confined in a spherical box) for a rotating system. It is shown that a critical angular momentum $λ_c$ (or, in the canonical language, a critical angular velocity $ω_c$) exists, such that for $λλ_c$, instead, the low-energy phase is characterized by the formation of two dense clusters (a ``binary star''). Remarkably, no Antonov limit is found for $λ>λ_c$. The thermodynamics of the system (phase diagram, caloric curves, local stability) is analyzed and compared with the recently-obtained picture emerging from a different type of statistics which forbids particle overlapping.

description: Mitophagy maintains cellular homeostasis by eliminating damaged mitochondria. Accumulated damaged mitochondria can lead to oxidative stress and cell death. Induction of the PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy is reported to be renoprotective in acute kidney injury (AKI). Esculetin, a naturally available coumarin, has shown protective action against diabetic complications. However, its effect on AKI-diabetes comorbidity has not been explored yet. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the renoprotective effect of esculetin against AKI under diabetic conditions via regulating PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy. For this, type 1 diabetic male Wistar rats were treated with two doses of esculetin (50 and 100 mg/kg/day orally) for five days followed by AKI induction by bilateral ischemic-reperfusion injury (IRI). NRK-52E cells grown in high glucose were exposed to sodium azide (10 mM) for induction of hypoxia/reperfusion injury (HRI) in-vitro. Esculetin (50 µM) treatment for 24 h was given to the cells before HRI. The in-vitro samples were utilized for cell viability and ΔΨm assay, immunoblotting, and immunofluorescence. Rats’ plasma, urine, and kidney samples were collected for biochemical analysis, histopathology, and western blotting. Our results showed a significant decrease in kidney injury-specific markers and increased expression of mitophagy markers (PINK1 and Parkin) with esculetin treatment. Moreover, esculetin prevented the HRI and hyperglycemia-induced decrease in ΔΨm and autophagosome marker. Also, esculetin therapy reduced oxidative stress via increased Nrf2 and Keap1 expression. Esculetin attenuated AKI under diabetic condition by preventing mitochondrial dysfunction via inducing PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy, suggesting its potential as an effective therapy for preventing AKI-diabetes comorbidity. Impaired mitophagy and increased oxidative stress are major contributors to AKI development.Esculetin treatment reduces oxidative stress in AKI-diabetes comorbidity.Esculetin activated Nrf2/PINK1/Parkin axis and improved mitophagy.Esculetin can be a potential therapy for AKI-diabetes comorbidity prevention and management.

description: Compounds with a tetragonal ThCr$_{2}$Si$_{2}$-type structure are characterized by the possibility of the isostructural phase transition from the tetragonal phase to the collapsed tetragonal phase induced by the external pressure. An example of a compound with such a phase transition is KFe$_{2}$As$_{2}$, which belongs to the family of the iron-based superconductors. In this paper, we investigate the effects of the phase transition on the structural, electronic, and dynamical properties of this compound. Performing the ab initio calculations, we reproduce the dependence of the lattice constants on pressure and analyze the changes of the inter-atomic distances in the tetragonal and collapsed tetragonal phases. Using the tight binding model with maximally localized Wannier orbitals, we calculate and discuss the influence of pressure on the electronic band structure as well as on the shape of the Fermi surface. We found a precursor of the phase transition in the form of enhancement of overlapping between two Wannier orbitals of As atoms. In order to better understand the superconducting properties of KFe$_{2}$As$_{2}$, we study the orbital-projected Cooper pairs susceptibility as a function of pressure. We found a decrease of susceptibility with the increasing pressure in a good qualitative agreement with experimental observation. The structural transition also influences the phonon spectrum of KFe$_{2}$As$_{2}$, which exhibits pronounced changes induced by pressure. Some phonon modes related with the vibrations of Fe and As atoms show an anomalous, nonmonotonic dependence on pressure close to the phase transition.

In this approximation we obtain an analytical solution for the time evolution of the one-body dynamical variables. The two-fermion physics can be explored through this solution. The condition for the existence of bound states is examined.

description: Pathogenic variants of BRCA1/2 constitute hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) syndrome, and BRCA1/2 mutant is a risk for various cancers. Whereas the clinical guideline for HBOC patients has been organized for the therapy and prevention of cancer, there is no recommendation on the female reproductive discipline. Indeed, the role of BRCA1/2 pathogenic variants in ovarian reserve has not been established due to the deficiency of appropriate animal models. Here, we used a rat model of Brca2(p.T1942fs/+) mutant of Sprague-Dawley strain with CRISPR-Cas9 editing to evaluate ovarian reserve in females. Fertility and ovarian follicles were evaluated and anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) was measured at 8–32 weeks of age with a comparison between the wild-type and the mutant rats (MUT). MUT revealed a significantly smaller number of deliveries with fewer total pups. Furthermore, MUT showed a significant decrease in primordial follicles at 20 weeks and a low AMH level at 28 weeks. RNA-sequencing of the ovary at 10 weeks detected acceleration of the DNA damage repair pathway, which was accompanied by oxidative stress-induced DNA double-strand breaks, a decrease in PTEN, and an increase in mTOR in follicular granulosa cells. In conclusion, Brca2(p.T1942fs/+) dissipates primordial follicles via early activation of granulosa cells through oxidative stress, leading to earlier termination of fertility.

description: This thesis details progress towards the development of an organocatalytic carbonyl-olefin metathesis of norbornene. This transformation has not previously been done catalytically and has not been done in practical manner with stepwise or stoichiometric processes. Building on the previous work of the Lambert lab on the metathesis of cyclopropene and an aldehyde using a hydrazine catalyst, this work discusses efforts to expand to the less stained norbornene. Computational and experimental studies on the catalytic cycle are discussed, including detailed experimental work on how various factors affect the difficult cycloreversion step.
      	The second portion of this thesis details the use of chiral cyclopropenimine bases as catalysts for asymmetric Michael reactions. The Lambert lab has previously developed chiral cyclopropenimine bases for glycine imine nucleophiles. The scope of these catalysts was expanded to include glycine imine derivatives in which the nitrogen atom was replaced with a carbon atom, and to include imines derived from other amino acids.

description: With the growing demand of the photovoltaic market, high cost of the traditional silicon-based solar cells has been the biggest barrier for its widespread use of solar energy conversion. New generation solar cells, aiming at the low-cost and high- efficiency photovoltaic devices, have been researched for a couple of decades. Among the new generation solar technologies, dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) normally employing a nanoporous TiO2 photoanode draw a quite attention to meet future solar energy market demanding because its realizable low-cost property and high-efficiency achievement. Continuing efforts have been devoted to improve the performance of DSSCs. However, there are still several drawbacks need to be overcome. The major drawbacks mainly focus on the electron recombination and low-efficiency electron transport in the nanoporous TiO2 photoanodes, which significantly limit the practical application of DSSCs. Therefore, the main task of this thesis is to retard the electron recombination and to improve the electron transport efficiency in the nanoporous TiO2 photoanodes for DSSCs through interfacial and structural modification strategies.

It is plausible that essential observational features of OJ 287 can be obtained via the general-relativistic description of the Bondi-Hoyle-Lyttleton transits through these tori, within the framework of radiation hydrodynamics.

description: Conformal algebra is an axiomatic description of the operator product expansion of chiral fields in conformal field theory. On the other hand, it is an adequate tool for the study of infinite-dimensional Lie algebras satisfying the locality property. The main examples of such Lie algebras are those ``based'' on the punctured complex plane, like the Virasoro algebra and loop algebras. In the present paper we develop a cohomology theory of conformal algebras with coefficients in an arbitrary module. It possesses standard properties of cohomology theories; for example, it describes extensions and deformations. We offer explicit computations for most of the important examples.

description: This poster describes the research software engineering and user experience approaches, as well as lessons learned from initial deployments, for a new open-source web UI tool, OGRRE, which enables rapid human review of Google Doc AI-digitized oil and gas regulatory documents.

The US has hundreds of thousands of orphaned oil and gas wells that no longer have a responsible owner. These wells pose an environmental and human health risk, as they can leak methane and other pollutants into the air and groundwater if they become compromised. In 2021, the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law was passed which allocated $4.7 billion for orphaned well plugging in the US. One major barrier to the Herculean task of plugging these wells is providing the stakeholders doing this work with accurate information about their location, construction, and status. This information is often documented in regulatory paper records created during the well permitting process. While many regulatory agencies have scanned their paper records, they often lack the resources necessary to digitize their content. Extracting this information and organizing it in computer databases will help regulatory agencies as they seek to better characterize the orphaned wells under their jurisdiction and prioritize their plugging.

Modern AI/ML optical character recognition (OCR) models can aid the efficient digitization of historic well records. However, these documents often date back over 100 years and contain handwritten fields and many other anomalies. This results in a significant challenge when training AI/ML algorithms to accurately identify fields, and results are often imperfect. Human review of the documents is needed to find and correct problems. With hundreds of thousands of documents to process and limited resources, an efficient melding of the human-in-the-loop tasks with the AI/ML models becomes essential.

This poster will describe the Oil and Gas Regulatory Record digitizEr (OGRRE) — a custom user interface we developed to facilitate rapid human review of digitized oil and gas regulatory documents. OGRRE uses retrained AI/ML models developed by Google Document AI. The tool is designed to  enable the interactive review and correction of AI/ML extracted data. The poster will describe the combination of Google Doc AI modeling, software engineering, and user experience approaches used to create the OGGRE tool and software infrastructure, as well as lessons learned from our pilot deployment of the tool.

OGRRE development is supported by the United States Department of Energy’s Undocumented Orphaned Well Program under the CATALOG[1] project.
Carmontelle’s Profile Pictures and the Things that Made Them Modern

description: This dissertation analyzes hundreds of portraits on paper by Louis Carrogis called Carmontelle (1717-1806), a major and prolific visual chronicler of his time who captured some of the eighteenth century’s most famous celebrities, including Mozart and Benjamin Franklin. Carmontelle’s portraits are instantly recognizable and ubiquitous, yet they are typically treated as transparent illustrations in histories of the eighteenth century; indeed, the entire corpus of Carmontelle’s drawn likenesses has never been fully catalogued by art historians, let alone iconographically or formally analyzed. In addition to initiating a complete and digital catalogue of the portraits, the dissertation includes a study of Carmontelle’s portraits as constructions of identity, in terms of both their consumer commodity content and their casual drawing medium. The last scholarly investigation devoted entirely to Carmontelle's portraits, of which there are at least 750, dates to 1902. Since then, major interdisciplinary advances in the study of eighteenth-century consumer culture have made it possible to completely reconsider Carmontelle's medium and subject matter. Drawing upon the example set by recent scholarly attentiveness to the relationship between identity and the performance of identity through the appearance, function, and material makeup of the objects that people owned, used, and displayed, the dissertation argues that both in their content and in their form, Carmontelle’s portraits express Enlightenment individualism and reveal the internal contradictions of royal and aristocratic identity on the verge of the French Revolution.

description: We investigate how the Coulomb interaction affects the energy $E$ and width $Γ$ of resonance states in mirror nuclei. We employ a three-cluster microscopic model to determine position of resonance states in two- and three-body continua. Two parameters are introduced to quantify effects of the Coulomb interactions. As the energy and width of the corresponding resonance states of mirror nuclei are displayed on an $E$-$Γ$ plane, these parameters determine a rotation and a dilatation. With the help of these parameters we found resonance states with strong, small and medium effects of the Coulomb interaction. We also found two different scenarios of the motion of resonance states due to the Coulomb interaction. The first standard (major) scenario represent resonance states with the larger energy and larger width than their counterparts have. The second rear scenario includes resonance states with the larger energy but smaller width.

description: This research investigated the career trajectories of mathematics professors of African heritage. The principal objective was to determine the factors that promoted self-efficacy, which made them complete a PhD in mathematics or an EdD in mathematics education regardless of the obstacles they encountered. I investigated 10 professors, males and females, of African heritage at the City University of the Northeast by using open-ended biographical questionnaires and individual interviews Several themes emerged from the data collected. The major themes that impacted the career trajectories of African American male and female mathematics professors were (a) family influence; (b) teacher influence; (c) peer influence; (d) problem solving approach; (e) perceptions of mathematics; (f) prior experience; (g) and individual perseverance (determination) and commitment (obligation). The findings of this research suggested that there are opportunities for young men and women of African heritage to develop into successful mathematicians (the term successful mathematicians is used to denote those men and women of African heritage who have completed their terminal degree, in mathematics or mathematics related subjects) provided that parents, teachers, and peers act their part.

We apply these results to the damped Jaynes-Cummings model and demonstrate that the corresponding bound is tight. We further show that non- Markovian effects can speed up quantum evolution and therefore lead to a smaller quantum speed limit time.

description: In the DHR theory of superselection sectors, one usually considers states which are local excitations of some vacuum state. Here, we extend this analysis to local excitations of a class of "infravacuum" states appearing in models with massless particles. We show that the corresponding superselection structure, the statistics of superselection sectors and the energy-momentum spectrum are the same as with respect to the vacuum state. (The latter result is obtained with a novel method of expressing the shape of the spectrum in terms of properties of local charge transfer cocycles.) These findings provide evidence to the effect that infravacua are a natural starting point for the analysis of the superselection structure in theories with long-range forces.

description: Current understanding of higher-order topological insulators (HOTIs) is based primarily on crystalline materials. Here, we propose that HOTIs can be realized in quasicrystals. Specifically, we show that two distinct types of second-order topological insulators (SOTIs) can be constructed on the quasicrystalline lattices (QLs) with different tiling patterns. One is derived by using a Wilson mass term to gap out the edge states of the quantum spin Hall insulator on QLs. The other is the quasicrystalline quadrupole insulator (QI) with a quantized quadrupole moment. We reveal some unusual features of the corner states (CSs) in the quasicrystalline SOTIs. We also show that the quasicrystalline QI can be simulated by a designed electrical circuit, where the CSs can be identified by measuring the impedance resonance peak. Our findings not only extend the concept of HOTIs into quasicrystals but also provide a feasible way to detect the topological property of quasicrystals in experiments.

description: We introduce the concept of `claspers,' which are surfaces in 3-manifolds with some additional structure on which surgery operations can be performed. Using claspers we define for each positive integer k an equivalence relation on links called `C_k-equivalence,' which is generated by surgery operations of a certain kind called `C_k-moves'. We prove that two knots in the 3-sphere are C_{k+1}-equivalent if and only if they have equal values of Vassiliev-Goussarov invariants of type k with values in any abelian groups. This result gives a characterization in terms of surgery operations of the informations that can be carried by Vassiliev-Goussarov invariants. In the last section we also describe outlines of some applications of claspers to other fields in 3-dimensional topology.

description: Räume begrenzter Staatlichkeit sind mehrheitlich der Autorität von externen Autoren ausgesetzt, beispielsweise dem IMF oder Regionalorganisationen. Diese Akteure stellen typischerweise Autoritätsstrukturen zur Verfügung – Institutionen und Regeln – die komplementär oder alternativ zu den innerstaatlichen Autoritätsstrukturen sind. Man kann davon ausgehen, dass entweder solche externe Akteure Kollektivgüter direkt bereitstellen oder dass ihre Autoritätsstrukturen dahingehend indirekt wirken. In diesem Paper untersuchen wir systematisch, inwiefern externe Autorität begrenzte Staatlichkeit in Bezug auf Kollektivgüterbereitstellung kompensieren kann. Unsere Analyse zeigt, dass dies nicht der Fall ist. Vielmehr scheint die Präsenz von externer Autorität in Staaten mit extrem begrenzter oder abwesender Staatlichkeit den gegenteiligen Effekt zu haben; hier ist sie mit schlechter Kollektivgüterbereitstellung assoziiert.
description: The vast majority of areas of limited statehood are subject to the authority of external actors, be it the IMF or regional organizations. These actors typically provide authority structures – institutions and rules – that are complementary or alternative to the state’s domestic authority structures. It is reasonable to assume that these external actors may either deliver collective goods directly, or the authority structures provided by them might work indirectly to that effect. In this paper, we systematically investigate whether external authority compensates for limited statehood with regard to collective goods provision. Our analysis shows that this is not the case. On the contrary, in fragile states with extremely limited or even absent statehood, the presence of external authority in domestic authority structures seems to have the opposite effect and is associated with poor collective goods provision.
Classical and quantum pumping in closed systems

description: Pumping of charge (Q) in a closed ring geometry is not quantized even in the strict adiabatic limit. The deviation form exact quantization can be related to the Thouless conductance. We use Kubo formalism as a starting point for the calculation of both the dissipative and the adiabatic contributions to Q. As an application we bring examples for classical dissipative pumping, classical adiabatic pumping, and in particular we make an explicit calculation for quantum pumping in case of the simplest pumping device, which is a 3 site lattice model.

description: For an arbitrary Euclidean building we define a certain combing, which satisfies the `fellow traveller property' and admits a recursive definition. Using this combing we prove that any group acting freely, cocompactly and by order preserving automorphisms on a Euclidean building of one of the types A_n,B_n,C_n admits a biautomatic structure.

description: As a vast photographic tableau of images sourced from antiquity, the Renaissance and early-twentieth-century popular media, Aby Warburg’s Mnemosyne Atlas (1924-29) was a means to formulating a fluid archive of cultural memory. In this exegesis, I show how Warburg’s mosaic of disparate remnants from the past has resonances with the mythopoetic structures that underpin my studio practice. Specifically, I adopt mythopoetics as both a conceptual and methodological strategy, as a vehicle for exploring first-person narratives and their capacity to formulate more defined and meaningful concepts of historical consciousness. This exegesis examines the archive as a metonymic framework that supports the ebb and flow of narrative context within the historical, cultural and subjective realms. Through references to the nature of the archive outlined in Jacques Derrida’s Archive Fever (1994) and Walter Benjamin’s concept of material history, I discuss the capacity for artefacts to inform both our historical awareness and current everyday experiences. The act of collecting as a mode of seeking out alternate forms of knowing and interpreting the past presents a counter-argument to the need to totalise historical narratives. Within this context, I draw parallels between the archival projects of Warburg and Benjamin and the contemporary works of W.G. Sebald, Gerhard Richter and Anselm Kiefer. Specifically, I investigate how Sebald’s literary works poetically explore the historical structures and practices that continue to give meaning to the every day and consider this in relation to Richter’s photographic archive Atlas, (years–ongoing) in which the artist references a mapping of identity through the blending of personal and collective cultural locations. Similarly Kiefer’s artists’ books evidence a conjuncture of first-person narrative and collective history that evokes a continuous liminal transition between present and past experience.

description: Porphyrins are highly flexible molecules and well known to adapt to their local environment via conformational changes. We studied the self-assembly of manganese meso-tetra(4-pyridyl)porphyrin (Mn-TPyP) molecules on a Cu(111) surface by low temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and atomic force microscopy (ATM). We observe molecular chains along the ⟨11¯0⟩ direction of the substrate. Within these chains, we identify two molecular conformations, which differ by the orientation of the upward bending of the macrocycle. Using density functional theory, we show that this saddle shape is a consequence of the rotation and inclination of the pyridyl groups towards Cu adatoms, which stabilize the metal-organic chains. The molecular conformations obey a strict alternation, reflecting the mutual enforcement of conformational adaptation in densely packed structures. Tunneling electrons from the STM tip can induce changes in the orientation of the pyridyl endgroups. The switching behaviour varies with the different adsorption configurations.
