description: Η οικονομική μεγέθυνση, ως αποτέλεσμα της οικονομικής δραστηριότητας των ανθρώπων, είναι στενά συνυφασμένη με την έννοια του περιβάλλοντος και την ποιότητα αυτού. Εξίσου γνωστό και ευρέως αποδεκτό, είναι επίσης το γεγονός πως αμφότερα αποκτούν κοινωνική διάσταση, συσχετιζόμενα με την ποιότητα της υγείας των ανθρώπων. Για τον παρόντα λόγο, έχει αναπτυχθεί έντονος προβληματισμός για τα περιβαλλοντικά προβλήματα και τον κοινωνικό τους αντίκτυπο, σε οικουμενικό επίπεδο. Σκοπός της παρούσας διπλωματικής εργασίας είναι η ανάλυση του συγκεκριμένου τρίπτυχου και η διερεύνηση του τρόπου με τον οποίο η οικονομική μεγέθυνση και η ποιότητα του περιβάλλοντος επηρεάζουν την υγεία του πληθυσμού της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης κατά την περίοδο 1990 – 2016. Για να επιτευχθεί αυτό, χρησιμοποιούνται οικονομετρικές μεθοδολογίες όπως οι έλεγχοι συνολοκλήρωσης Westerlund και Pedroni, η PMG, η GMM και άλλες. Βάσει των αποτελεσμάτων στα οποία καταλήγει η προκείμενη έρευνα, συνίσταται μία συντονισμένη προσπάθεια για τον καθορισμό πολιτικών στόχων τόσο στους τομείς του περιβάλλοντος όσο και της υγείας για τον μετριασμό των αρνητικών επιπτώσεων της ρύπανσης αρχικά στην υγεία αλλά έπειτα και στην οικονομική μεγέθυνση
description: Economic growth, as a result of people's economic activity, is closely intertwined with the concept of the environment and its quality. Equally well known and widely accepted is the fact that both acquire a social dimension related to the quality of human health. This has arisen a strong concern about the environmental problems and their social impact at a universal level. The purpose of this dissertation is the analysis of this triptych and the investigation of the way that economic growth and the quality of the environment affect the health of the population of the European Union during the period 1990 – 2016. For achieve this, econometric methodologies are used such as Westerlund and Pedroni cointegration tests, PMG, GMM and others. Based on the results of the presented investigation, a coordinated effort is recommended to set policy goals in both the environmental and health sectors to mitigate the negative effects of pollution firstly on health but then on economic growth as well

description: In this paper, we have analytically investigated $p$-wave holographic superconductor in the framework of massive gravity in the probe limit. We obtained the analytical expressions for the critical temperature, the value of the condensate operator, and the difference of the free energy between the superconductor and normal phases. We studied the behavior of these quantities in the presence of the mass of graviton, which is found to be dependent almost on the sign of the massive gravity couplings. The critical temperature becomes (lower)higher and the condensate value gets (larger)smaller with (decreasing)increasing the massive gravity couplings or increasing the mass of graviton with the sufficiently (negative)positive massive gravity couplings. This fact corresponds to that the superconductor phase is (more)less thermodynamically favored.

description: Teresa Kearney left Ireland before the war to join her sister Aby in Paris. Teresa was a nanny for a French Cabinet Minister in Paris when war broke out, so was unable to return home. Throughout the war, she cared for the family in Paris. She also took many trips to other places as her boss, the minister, thought the family would be safer. Her family have many postcards confirming the constant movements of the family but no mention of war.

When Teresa returned to the United Kingdom, she was not allowed into the country as she had spent nine years in France (her English/Irish was thought suspicious). She had to be identified by her sister before she was allowed into England.
On Frobenius' theta formula

description: Mumford's well-known characterization of the hyperelliptic locus of the moduli space of ppavs in terms of vanishing and non-vanishing theta constants is based on Neumann's dynamical system. Poor's approach to the characterization uses the cross ratio. A key tool in both methods is Frobenius' theta formula, which follows from Riemann's theta formula. In a 2004 paper Grushevsky gives a different characterization in terms of cubic equations in second order theta functions. In this note we first show the connection between the methods by proving that Grushevsky's cubic equations are strictly related to Frobenius' theta formula and we then give a new proof of Mumford's characterization via Gunning's multisecant formula.

description: Urban households account for most of the milk consumption in China, but their consumption is hampered by safety concerns. Using survey data collected in Beijing and Harbin in 2010, this paper simultaneously analyses urban households’ milk consumption using a multiple linear model and their willingness-to-pay for milk safety using an ordered choice model. The results of this study show that as income increases, urban households consume more milk and are willing to pay a higher premium for milk safety. Modern food marketing channels play a positive role in stimulating milk consumption and building consumers’ confidence in milk safety. The growth in the elderly population influences milk consumption positively, but their demand for milk safety is negatively affected by higher price. The combined analysis of households’ demand for milk quantity and safety may be useful to the Chinese government in promoting the development of the domestic milk industry and to dairy firms in exploring the milk market in China.

description: Congenital portosystemic shunts (CPSS) are vascular anomalies, allowing portal blood to bypass the hepatic parenchyma, thereby accumulating toxic substances such as ammonia in the systemic circulation resulting in hepatic encephalopathy. To evaluate the outcome of non-surgically treated dogs with a CPSS. Case records of 78 dogs with a single congenital CPSS confirmed by ultrasound and/or computed tomography between September 2003 and February 2015 were reviewed. Median age at diagnosis of CPSS in dogs was 10.8 months (range 2–133 months). Non-surgical treatment was started as an adjusted diet (a diet restricted in protein) with or without lactulose. Owners were contacted by telephone to determine survival time and presumed cause of death, if applicable. In addition, a questionnaire was used to retrospectively assess quality of life (QoL) and CPSS scores in 37 dogs before and during non-surgical treatment. Differences between Kaplan–Meier curves were tested by a Log rank test. Overall estimated median survival time (EMST) was 38.5 months (range 1 day − 91 months; 78 dogs). No significant differences between EMSTs were found between dogs with extra- (n = 48) or intrahepatic (n = 29) shunts, nor between treatment with only an adjusted diet, or an adjusted diet combined with lactulose. During non-surgical treatment, significant improvement in perceived QoL and CPSS scores were found (P Our study demonstrated that an overall median EMST of 3.2 years was reached and that owners retrospectively perceived that non-surgical treatment resulted in an improved QoL and clinical performance, irrespective of intrahepatic or extrahepatic CPSS location.

description: This paper quantifies the levels of assistance received by producers of the major agricultural crops and animal products in Australia since Federation and compares this with the level of assistance provided to manufacturing producers. First, we construct a series of the production-weighted average nominal rate of assistance for the whole sector. Then, we compute a measure of the level of assistance received by the Agriculture sector relative to that received by the Manufacturing sector, the Relative Rate of Assistance. Our results show that, from the time of Federation until the 1990s, the economy-wide pattern of industry assistance discriminated persistently and heavily against the Agriculture sector. The policy of ‘protection all round’ pursued by the Country/National Party did not prevent this discrimination. In particular, producers of exportables, such as wool and wheat, were heavily discriminated against. Both the intersectoral bias and the differences in assistance among agricultural producers lowered the incomes of the Agriculture sector and the national income.

description: The NASA Global-scale Observations of the Limb and Disk (GOLD) ultraviolet imaging spectrograph performs observations of upper-atmosphere airglow from the sunlit disk and limb of the Earth, in order to infer quantities such as the composition and temperature of the thermosphere. To interpret the measurements, the observational and solar illumination geometry must be considered. We use forward models of upper atmosphere density and composition, photoelectron impact, airglow emissions, radiative transfer, and line-of-sight integration, to describe the expected observations, and here test those calculations against observations near the terminator, and near the limb. On the night side of the terminator, broad regions of faint airglow are seen, particularly near the winter solstice. These are caused by photoelectrons that were transported along field lines from magnetically conjugate areas in the other hemisphere, where those areas are still illuminated. We perform model calculations to demonstrate that this process is the source of the emission, and obtain good agreement with its morphology and intensity. In some regions, the observed emissions are not as intense as the model simulations. Some of the reductions in electron flux are explained by changes in magnetic field strength; in other cases, particularly at high magnetic latitude, the cause is unknown, but must occur along extended field lines as they reach into the plasma sheet.

description: Farming activities are often financed using debt, yet empirical studies investigating the relationship between farm debt structure and performance are still rare. Using a 10 year unbalanced panel of Broadacre farms in Western Australia, we relate the impact of long-term debt, short-term debt and tax liability on farm performance measured by input-oriented technical efficiency and return on assets. We find farm technical efficiency is positively related to short-term debt, tax liability and capital investment, but negatively related to off-farm income generating activities. Long-term debt has no effect on production efficiency and return on assets. These results are robust to both parametric and nonparametric methods of estimation.

description: We developed a deep learning model-based system to automatically generate a quantitative Computed Tomography (CT) diagnostic report for Pulmonary Tuberculosis (PTB) cases.501 CT imaging datasets from 223 patients with active PTB were collected, and another 501 cases from a healthy population served as negative samples.2884 lesions of PTB were carefully labeled and classified manually by professional radiologists.Three state-of-the-art 3D convolution neural network (CNN) models were trained and evaluated in the inspection of PTB CT images. Transfer learning method was also utilized during this process. The best model was selected to annotate the spatial location of lesions and classify them into miliary, infiltrative, caseous, tuberculoma and cavitary types simultaneously.Then the Noisy-Or Bayesian function was used to generate an overall infection probability.Finally, a quantitative diagnostic report was exported.The results showed that the recall and precision rates, from the perspective of a single lesion region of PTB, were 85.9% and 89.2% respectively. The overall recall and precision rates,from the perspective of one PTB case, were 98.7% and 93.7%, respectively. Moreover, the precision rate of the PTB lesion type classification was 90.9%.The new method might serve as an effective reference for decision making by clinical doctors.

description: L’île de Mayotte, département français d’Outre-Mer depuis 2011, vit une accélération rapide de ses structures. La population mahoraise, à 95 % de confession musulmane, se trouve dans un système social en pleine mutation. Les parents sont confrontés à de nouvelles exigences juridiques et éducatives face à une laïcité que les écoles de la République tentent de mettre en œuvre. Les familles se demandent comment à la fois perpétuer leurs pratiques éducatives traditionnelles et vivre la modernité. Ainsi à partir de six ans les enfants suivent à la fois l’école coranique et l’école primaire de la République. On assiste donc à la coexistence d’éléments relevant à la fois de valeurs islamiques et de valeurs républicaines, lesquelles sont renforcées par l’émergence de nouvelles pratiques s’appuyant sur une « laïcité » importée. La laïcité serait-elle alors perçue par les familles comme une volonté d'occidentalisation déguisée ? Dans ce contexte l’accompagnement des familles et le travail des enseignants est particulièrement singulier. Se poser la question de la transmission familiale à Mayotte, c’est prendre en compte prendre en compte le respect des cultures et la dignité de chacune d’entre elles face aux conséquences néfastes qu’une non transmission peut avoir sur le positionnement de l’enfant et de l’individu dans le groupe.

description: Bovine orthopneumovirus, formerly known as bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV), is frequently associated with bovine respiratory disease (BRD). To perform the molecular characterization of the G and F proteins of Brazilian wild-type BRSV strains derived from bovine respiratory infections in both beef and dairy cattle. Ten BRSV strains derived from a dairy heifer rearing unit (n = 3) in 2011 and steers of three other feedlots (n = 7) in 2014 and 2015 were analyzed. For the BRSV G and F partial gene amplifications, RT-nested-PCR assays were performed with sequencing in both directions with forward and reverse primers used. The G gene-based analysis revealed that two strains were highly similar to the BRSV sequences representative of subgroup III, including the Bayovac vaccine strain. However, the remaining seven Brazilian BRSV strains were diverse when compared with strains representative of the BRSV I to VIII subgroups. The central hydrophobic region of the Brazilian BRSV G gene showed the replacement of conserved cysteines and other residues of importance to antibody reactivity. The deduced F gene amino acid sequences from the Brazilian BRSV strains showed changes that were absent in the representative sequences of the known subgroups. Viral isolation on the nasopharyngeal swab suspensions failed to isolate BRSV. Results suggest that these strains represent a putative new subgroup of BRSV with mutations observed in the immunodominant region of the G protein. However, further studies on these Brazilian BRSV strains should be performed to establish their pathogenic potential.

description: Displaced abomasum (DA) is a condition of dairy cows that severely impacts animal welfare and causes huge economic losses. To assess the metabolic status of the disease using metabolomics in serum, urine and liver samples aimed at both water soluble and lipid soluble fractions. Fifty Holstein multiparous cows with DA (42 left, 8 right) and 20 clinically healthy Holstein multiparous cows were used. Left DA was associated with concomitant ketosis in 19 animals and right in two. NMR-based metabolomics approach and hematological and biochemical analyses were performed. Statistical analysis was carried out on 1H-NMR data after they have been normalized using PQN method. Contrary to generated PCA score plots the OPLS-supervised method revealed differences between healthy animals and diseased ones based on serum water-soluble samples. While water and lipid soluble metabolites decreased in serum samples, fatty acid fractions and cholesterol were increased in liver samples in DA affected cows. The metabolomic and chemical profiles clearly revealed that cows with DA (especially with LDA) were at risk of ketosis and fatty liver. Serum hippuric acid concentration was significantly higher in healthy cows in comparison with LDA, whereas serum glycine concentration was reported higher for healthy when compared to RDA affected animals. A biochemical network and pathway mapping revealed ‘valine, leucine and isoleucine biosynthesis’ and ‘phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan biosynthesis’ as the most probable altered metabolic pathway in DA condition. Serum was advocated as the optimal biological matrix for the 1H-NMR analysis.

description: We consider a vector dark matter (VDM) with a direct coupling with photon. We examine the effect of such an interaction on the CMB polarization to put new constrains on the properties of the DM particles. We show that a partially polarized VDM of the order of temperature fluctuation with a quadrupole distribution leads to a valuable CP for the CMB. In different DM-models the DM-masses range from few $eV$ to a few $TeV$. We show that the CP angular power spectrum depends on the mass of VDM as $C^{(S)}_{Vl}\propto 1/m_{_{V}}^6$ such that for $m_{_{V}}=10eV-1keV$, the CP angular power spectrum is $C^{(S)}_{Vl}\simeq 10^3- 10^{-11}{\rm nK^2}$. Therefore, the light VDM with masses less than $10 eV$ leads to an unexpected very large CP which can be excluded from the acceptable range of the VDM masses.

description: We present two approaches for computing rational approximations to multivariate functions, motivated by their effectiveness as surrogate models for high-energy physics (HEP) applications. Our first approach builds on the Stieltjes process to efficiently and robustly compute the coefficients of the rational approximation. Our second approach is based on an optimization formulation that allows us to include structural constraints on the rational approximation, resulting in a semi-infinite optimization problem that we solve using an outer approximation approach. We present results for synthetic and real-life HEP data, and we compare the approximation quality of our approaches with that of traditional polynomial approximations.

description: Background: The natural MERS-CoV infection in dromedary camels is understudied. Recent experimental studies showed no obvious clinical signs in the infected dromedary camels. Aim: To study the pathological changes associated with natural MERS-CoV infection in dromedary camels. Methods: Tissues from three MERS-CoV positive animals as well as two negative animals were collected and examined for the presence of pathological changes. The screening of the animals was carried out first by the rapid agglutination test and then confirmed by the RT-PCR. The selected animals ranged from six to twelve months in age. The sensitivity of the latter technique was much higher in the detection of MERS-CoV than the Rapid test (14 out of 75 animals positive or 18% versus 31 out of 75 positive or 41%). Results: MERS-CoV induced marked desquamation of the respiratory epithelium accompanied by lamina propria and submucosal mononuclear cells infiltration, epithelial hyperplasia in the respiratory tract, and interstitial pneumonia. Ciliary cell loss was seen in the trachea and turbinate. In addition, degeneration of glomerular capillaries with the complete destruction of glomerular tufts that were replaced with fibrinous exudate in renal corpuscles in the renal cortex were noticed. Expression of the MERS-CoV-S1 and MERS-CoV-N proteins was revealed in respiratory tract, kidneys and spleen. Conclusion: To our knowledge, this is the first study describing the pathological changes of MERS-CoV infection in dromedary camels under natural conditions. In contrast to experimental infection in case of spontaneous infection interstitial pneumonea is evident at least in some affected animals.

description: We review the effect of water anomalies on the properties of low temperature water. When supercooled, liquids dynamical properties change drastically. Supercooled liquids undergo an at least exponential decrease of their diffusion coefficient when temperature decreases while their structure merely does not change. We discuss how that still unexplained change of dynamical properties at low temperatures affect water differently from other liquids and what can be deduced from it.

description: Les attitudes des parents représentent un thème de recherche pertinent concernant la relation parent-enfant. La présente étude porte sur l’analyse des relations entre les attitudes parentales, la résilience et les résultats scolaires des adolescents dans les écoles professionnelles. La qualité de la parentalité a été abordée en considérant les perceptions des adolescents concernant l’affection des parents et les pratiques d’éducation des enfants. Plusieurs ressources de résilience et variables sociodémographiques ont été analysées. Les participants comprenaient environ trois cents adolescents portugais et africains, âgés de 14 à 23 ans (M = 17,84 ; ET = 2,02), issus d'écoles professionnelles (7ème-12ème) du centre du Portugal. La majorité était des hommes (61,70%) appartenant à des classes socio-économiques défavorisées. Pour l’évaluation, nous avons utilisé le Youth Perception Inventory (YPI), le module d’évaluation de la résilience des enfants en santé, (HKRA) et le questionnaire socio-démographique. Les données apportent des contributions intéressantes concernant l’impact des aspects démographiques sur les variables étudiées, en montrant les différences résultant de la nationalité, du sexe, du type de famille et des qualifications du père.

description: Layered misfit cobaltate [Ca$_2$CoO$_3$]$_{0.62}$[CoO$_2$], which emerged as an important thermoelectric material~[A. C. Masset et al. Phys. Rev. B, 62, 166 (2000)], has been explored extensively in the last decade for the exact mechanism behind its high Seebeck coefficient. Its complex crystal and electronic structures have inhibited consensus among such investigations. This situation has arisen mainly due to difficulties in accurate identification of the chemical state, spin state, and site symmetries in its two subsystems (rocksalt [Ca$_2$CoO$_3$] and triangular [CoO$_2$]). By employing resonant photoemission spectroscopy and x-ray absorption spectroscopy along with charge transfer multiplet simulations (at the Co ions), we have successfully identified the site symmetries, valencies and spin states of the Co in both layers. Our site-symmetry observations explain the experimental value of the high Seebeck coefficient and also confirm that the carriers hop within the rocksalt layer, which is in contrast to earlier reports where hopping within triangular CoO$_2$ layer has been held responsible for the large Seebeck coefficient.

The supportive classroom : supporting students’ progress toward meeting academic and behavioural expectations in the home economics classroom
Creators: name: Hay, Catherine
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Much excellent work has been done in recent years in the movement toward standards- or outcomes-based grading. There are still a few persistent misconceptions about outcomes-based assessment, such as it leads to students “getting away with” late work, poor attendance, and academic dishonesty, and watered down standards. Concurrently, many schools have adopted a system of school-wide positive behaviour supports (PBIS). Many schools in BC now have their own acronym of behaviour expectations which suggests that PBIS has become widely accepted, and there is evidence, both anecdotal and empirical, that such schools have had success in increasing the frequency of expected behaviours while decreasing the number of office referrals for behaviour problems. PBIS, while not without criticism, can be used to create a safe, welcoming, and productive environment in the classroom. The goal of this paper is to show that PBIS can dovetail with standards-based grading to address the attitude and behavioural concerns that are being taken out of the arena of grading. The intention is to demonstrate that a combination of standards-based assessment practices with positive behaviour supports is consistent with the values of home economics education and can result in improved student learning and student behaviour.

description: The purpose of this study is to enlighten the field of management and treatment anxiety disorders during antenatal and postnatal period, through the perspective of global literature. Τhis paper, is a collective review of international guidelines, from a variety of organizations and countries that concern anxiety disorders during the perinatal period. Data has been collected from internet scientific engine machines and after communication with local national organizations. Afterwards, data were evaluated for their validity and reliability and only those that were extracted from evidence-based science data were used. The milestones of the guidelines have been analyzed and a comparative review has been completed, in order to pinpoint the main resemblances and deviations. Finally, a comparative table of treatment options and organizations, from whom the guidelines had come from, was extracted and also a collection of the most intensive signals for suggested or contradicted treatment pathways was created

description: The Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) effect ranks among the most notable quantum interference phenomena, and is central to many applications in quantum technologies. The fundamental effect appears when two independent and indistinguishable photons are superimposed on a beam splitter, which achieves a complete suppression of coincidences between the two output ports. Much less studied, however, is when the fields share coherence (continuous-wave lasers) or mode envelope properties (pulsed lasers). In this case, we expect the existence of two distinct and concurrent HOM interference regimes: the traditional HOM dip on the coherence length time scale, and a structured HOM interference pattern on the pulse length scale. We develop a theoretical framework that describes HOM interference for laser fields having arbitrary temporal waveforms and only partial overlap in time. We observe structured HOM interference from a continuous-wave laser via fast polarization modulation and time-resolved single photon detection fast enough to resolve these structured HOM dips.

description: Based on preliminary data, it appears that overall food consumption per capita declined 0.4 percent in 1979. Pork and poultry consumption increased slightly, offsetting a decline for beef. Per capita consumption of crops declined 0.6 percent. Changes in food consumption patterns were caused by economic conditions, weather variations, diet changes, and cyclical changes in beef and pork production.
