description: Gametic Imprinting is the unequal expression of genes from the male and female alleles that results in parental dependant traits. We report here of an unusual Pgk-1,2-lacZ transgenic line that is irreversibly inactivated when passaged through the female germline. Inactivation of the transgene is correlated with methylation. HpaII sites within the lacZ region of the inactivated transgene are completely methylated, and treatment of mouse embryonic fibroblasts carrying inactivated transgenes with 5-aza-2-deoxycytidine results in reactivation. Additionally, we used P19 embryonal carcinoma cells to examine transgene inactivation, as cultured cells are more amenable to manipulation. Once again, methylation was correlated with transgene inactivation. Cells uniformly expressing the Pgk-1,2-lacZ transgene are also methylated to a slightly lesser degree suggesting that within transgene arrays, only a subset of transgenes are actively transcribed.

description: This study was designed to support the anti-idling policies of Surrey Fire Service. Two major components were the adoption of fire trucks with Auxiliary Power Units (APUs) and changing behavioural attitudes towards turning off the main fire truck engine whenever possible. As such, the first component of the study aimed to determine the value of APUs. Specifically, to estimate the idle time, cost, and greenhouse gas emissions reduced by APU use. The second component of the study aimed to find determinants of unnecessary idling by examining whether idle times were associated with engine type, distance travelled per incident, number of incidents, firefighter crew, and incident type.

description: Objective: The potential of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as a technical biomarker for cerebral microstructural alterations in neurodegenerative diseases is under investigation. In this study, a framework for the longitudinal analysis of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI)-based mapping was applied to the assessment of predefined white matter tracts in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), as an example for a rapid progressive neurodegenerative disease. Methods: DTI was performed every 3 months in six patients with ALS (mean (M) = 7.7; range 3 to 15 scans) and in six controls (M = 3; range 2–5 scans) with the identical scanning protocol, resulting in a total of 65 longitudinal DTI datasets. Fractional anisotropy (FA), mean diffusivity (MD), axonal diffusivity (AD), radial diffusivity (RD), and the ratio AD/RD were studied to analyze alterations within the corticospinal tract (CST) which is a prominently affected tract structure in ALS and the tract correlating with Braak’s neuropathological stage 1. A correlation analysis was performed between progression rates based on DTI metrics and the revised ALS functional rating scale (ALS-FRS-R). Results: Patients with ALS showed an FA and AD/RD decline along the CST, while DTI metrics of controls did not change in longitudinal DTI scans. The FA and AD/RD decrease progression correlated significantly with ALS-FRS-R decrease progression. Conclusion: On the basis of the longitudinal assessment, DTI-based metrics can be considered as a possible noninvasive follow-up marker for disease progression in neurodegeneration. This finding was demonstrated here for ALS as a fast progressing neurodegenerative disease.
The Relationship between Epistemic Style, Environmental Knowledge, Trust in Environmental Scientists and Environmental Behaviour
Creators: name: Farrugia, Matthew
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: The present research aimed to examine the effects of individual's epistemic style on environmental knowledge, trust in environmental scientists, and subsequently pro-environmental behaviour. The study was comprised of 149 participants who completed an online questionnaire utilising measures of epistemic style, trust, knowledge and behaviour. Epistemic style was assessed by the Epistemic Preference Indicated (EPI; Eigenberger, Critchley & Sealander’s, 2007) which measured two negatively related dimensions named the Intellective Position (IP; a preference for elaborated forms of thinking) and the Default Position (DP; a preference for automatic forms of thinking). The results supported the hypothesis that having a preference for the IP would positively predict environmental knowledge and subsequently high levels of pro-environmental behaviour while having a preference for the DP would negatively predict environmental knowledge, and subsequently low levels of pro-environmental behaviour. Contrary to expectations, differences in epistemic style were not predictive of trust in environmental scientists, however trust in environmental scientists did predict pro-environmental behaviour. Suggestions for future research include exploration of ways in which a preference for the DP could be shifted to a preference for the IP to encourage pro-environmental outcomes in conjunction with assessing the generalisability of the current results to other forms of pro-social behaviour.

description: Melanoma cell expression of the nerve growth factor receptor CD271 is associated with stem-like properties. However, the contributing role of the receptor in melanoma cell migration is elusive. Here, we explored extracranial (skin, soft tissue, lymph node and liver, n = 13) and matched brain metastases (BM, n = 12) and observed a heterogeneous distribution of phenotypically distinct subsets of CD271+ cells. In addition, we observed that CD271 expression gradually rises along with melanoma progression and metastasis by exploration of publicly available expression data of nevi, primary melanoma (n = 31) and melanoma metastases (n = 54). Furthermore, we observed highest levels of CD271 in BM. Sub-clustering identified 99 genes differentially expressed among CD271high and CD271low (p

description: Objective This study sought to determine the potential change in trends in the baseline characteristics of patients with symptomatic severe mitral regurgitation who underwent transcatheter edge-to-edge mitral valve repair (M-TEER) over the last decade in a high-volume center. Methodology The investigation included 942 symptomatic patients with moderate-to-severe and severe mitral regurgitation who underwent transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) at our institution between January 2010 and March 2021. Patients were divided into quintiles and compared separately. Results Patients treated in the last quintile had significantly lower surgical risk (Euro Score 7.2 ± 6.8% in the last quintile vs. 10.9 ± 9.4% in the first quintile, p < 0.001), better New York Heart Association (NYHA) status (NYHA IV 14% in the last quintile vs. 40% in the first quintile, p < 0.001), lower NT-pro-BNP, and smaller left ventricle diameter than patients who were treated in the first quintile. There was no difference in age between quintiles. However, an invasive hemodynamic assessment did not show significant changes over the last decade (sPAP 51.35 ± 16.2 mmHg in the first quintile vs. 51.02 ± 14.5 mmHg in the last quintile, p = 0.90, pulmonary capillary wedge V wave 30.7 ± 14.8 mmHg in the first quintile vs. 27.4 ± 10.3 mmHg in the last quintile, p = 0.40). There is a significant trend of a gradually increasing proportion of patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation (MR) over the last 10 years (p < 0.001). The experience gained in the M-TEER procedure brought a significant reduction in fluoroscopy time and hospitalization duration. Medical therapy significantly changed over the last decade in terms of higher use of angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), lower use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs), and the introduction of angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitors (ARNIs). Conclusion Patients undergoing the M-TEER procedure nowadays have lower surgical risk and are treated before they develop a significant left ventricular (LV) remodeling than before. The increasing expertise on the procedure over the last decade led to a rising number of patients with complex degenerative pathology being treated.

Diagnosis
This species is recognised by the following characteristics: dorsum of mesosoma smooth and shiny, irregularly reticulate sculpture absent; length of head not clearly greater than width; pronotum convex and rounded above, propodeum and metapleuron with well-marked costulae; propodeum saddle-shaped; posterior border of the katepisternum and posterior face of the postpetiole smooth and shining; petiole anteroposteriorly compressed, scale-like (Fig. 13) (Albuquerque and Brandão 2004).
Distribution
This species is rarely collected, with only a few records from the Amazon rainforest (Albuquerque and Brandão 2004). This is the first report of the species in Colombia and the second report of the genus in the country, which was previously known from only a single record in the Department of Meta. In the Neotropical Region, the species has also been recorded in Brazil, Ecuador and French Guiana (Albuquerque and Brandão 2004, Salazar et al. 2015, Franco et al. 2019).
Biology
The only specimen of Oxyepoecus ephippiatus was collected in leaf litter in the Andean-Amazonian transition zone, in the lower cloud forest of the Hacha River Basin.

description: Investment in education increases earning potential for the individual. In the United Kingdom it has been calculated that a degree is worth more than A$1 million over a lifetime's work and income. However, the calculations are based on people currently 60 years old (or older) who were likely to have gone through university when only 7 percent of the population participated in tertiary education. Now that enrolment rates are nearer 30 percent in many countries, an undergraduate degree alone is unlikely to result in the same economic advantages. Recent media reports suggest that a Bachelor of Arts degree now will qualify a student to do the same type of job that would have been done in the 1970s by people with no school qualification. There is also a positive relationship between economic development and research capability within a workforce. It would follow that an increase in the research capacity of the country results in economic development---and the same should be true for the individual. For those in the workforce the professional doctorate can appear to be the ideal way to fulfil the double goal of education and research literacy. However, analysis of completion rates suggests that the very type of candidate attracted to a professional doctorate is that most at risk of non-completion of the degree. Part time and mature candidates are less likely to complete than young, full-time candidates moving into higher degrees from an honours undergraduate degree. The traditional PhD is fraught with concerns about the emotional journey of being engaged in doctoral work, and in becoming 'the other'. Research on the delicate balance between supervisor and candidate, and the impact of the supervisor's own doctoral experience particularly with reference to supervisory practice, has highlighted the complexities surrounding doctoral journeys and supervision. When we take into account the changing context within which higher education operates, the space for supervision is seen to be under threat. As funding is now being given in many countries on the basis of completion within a designated time frame, it behoves the academy to develop ways of assisting the new type of candidate to successful completion. Our challenge is to maximise enrolments, minimise attrition, and maximise progression without foregoing rigour. This chapter considers implications for management of candidates and training of research supervisors.
Towards sustainable re-employment for low-skilled labour: new paradigms and policy options

description: The OECD notes that 'Welfare-to-Work' (WtW) active labour market policies are failing to meet the needs of low-skilled labour market re-entrants. The paper identifies possible reasons for this policy shortfall. The pervasive influence of the promotion of up-skilling as a panacea for labour market inequality is noted as is the impact of other economic orthodoxies on labour market programs, an outcome being the rewarding of placement outcomes, not sustainable employment outcomes. Job sustainability goals are focused heavily on the alignment of labour re-entry opportunities with skill shortages. However, the development needs of participants in environments characterised by 'job churn' and demand for labour market flexibility need greater attention. Adherence to certain economic orthodoxies, manifest in the types of Government labour market interventions, is preventing knowledge and learning being transferred between labour market programs to inform innovative approaches to creating employment for low-skilled labour. The paper identifies the heuristic value of the Business Services program for developing employment for people with disabilities through a dual focused business model that supports disadvantaged groups through training and experiential learning, whilst capitalising on commercial opportunities for flexible and adaptive forms of labour use. The increasing importance to many businesses of Corporate Social Responsibility drivers and Triple Bottom Line accountability provides opportunities for these dual focused businesses to seek new forms of engagement with industry in a commercially viable manner.

Librarian teach thyself: Exploring natural language processing tools for de-identification as window into AI for librarians

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: This poster will present a project that helped librarians learn and teach artificial intelligence (AI) tools for data de-identification. Librarians continue to play an important role in research data management services, offering crucial outreach and instruction to faculty and researchers about data tools, FAIR data, and open science. As AI tools continue to grow in use and popularity, information professionals are poised to offer guidance on data sharing in the AI landscape. Training librarians to train researchers in AI concepts and AI-based data tools helps increase librarian skills in both AI and data management. Data de-identification is a great example of a data management skill that is well suited to AI-based tools. Therefore, this one-hour webinar was created to introduce librarians and information professionals to AI and natural language processing (NLP), and provide fundamental context about how they work through the example of de-identification.

Using a train-the-trainer model, this class explored openly available tools that use NLP to find and redact personally identifying information, and discussed the distinctions between privacy, de-identification, anonymization, and (USA-specific) HIPAA compliance. The removal and de-identification of personal and sensitive information is often a repetitive, time intensive process. These tools can be used to produce HIPAA compliant data that can be more safely shared and help researchers comply with data sharing policies. Teaching librarians about freely available data tools can improve their understanding of AI and expand their institution’s data service offerings. Although the workshop presented was focused on librarians, our planning process may be of interest to other trainers interested in introducing AI basics through practical tools. This presentation will describe curriculum development, highlighted tools, and results from a pilot run.

How to jump start PhD thesis in entrepreneurship research: a practical heuristic for phd instructors and students
Creators: name: Sassmannshausen, Sean Patrick

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: In this paper we define a “Ten Step Heuristic” that can help to systematically define research projects in Entrepreneurship. We particularly address PhD students and their instructors, but our road map might also be found useful by other scholars in the distinct field of entrepreneurship research. The paper is a “good practice report” based on our personal experience from ten years in PhD programs. Many partners have found the approach—especially the order of the various steps—contra intuitive at first sight, but our heuristic proofed to be advantageous whenever it was implemented. PhD students who follow our approach will not only create competitive research designs, but will also gain a deeper understanding of Entrepreneurship as a scholarly field of research.

Diagnosis
This species is recognised by the following characteristics: Head subtrapezoidal with angulated occipital corners; frontal lobes markedly expanded laterally and anteriorly, projecting over the clypeus and part of the mandibles; antennal scrobes deep, completely covered by lateral expansions of frontal lobes; promesonotum continuously rounded in profile; metanotal groove wide and shallow; propodeal spines short and acute; tegument hard with sculpture and coarse pilosity (Feitosa et al. 2008) (Fig. 14).
Distribution
Stegomyrmex manni is a Neotropical species widely distributed in Mesoamerica, but with scarce records in South America (Feitosa et al. 2008). This is the first report of the species in Caquetá and the second report of this species in the country (Serna 2002), marking the first record of the species for the Amazon rainforest region. In the Neotropical Region, the species has also been recorded in Ecuador, French Guiana, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama (Smith 1946, Kempf 1972, Ryder et al. 2010 b, Franco et al. 2019).
Biology
The specimen was collected using the TSBF methodology, between 0 and 10 cm depth, which would suggest that this species inhabits the soil. This record complements the observations made by Feitosa et al. (2008), where they mentioned that S. manni is a soil inhabitant and is collected infrequently using Winkler bags. Here, we report, for the first time, the hypogeic habits in this species.

description: Aim Cerebral palsy (CP) is associated with dysfunction of the upper motor neuron and results in balance problems and asymmetry during locomotion. Selective dorsal rhizotomy (SDR) is a surgical procedure that results in reduced afferent neuromotor signals from the lower extremities with the aim of improving gait. Its influence on balance and symmetry has not been assessed. The aim of this prospective cohort study was to evaluate the impact of SDR on balance and symmetry during walking. Methods 18 children (10 girls, 8 boys; age 6 years (y) 3 months (m), SD 1y 8m) with bilateral spastic CP and Gross Motor Function Classification System levels I to II underwent gait analysis before and 6 to 12 months after SDR. Results were compared to 11 typically developing children (TDC; 6 girls, 5 boys; age 6y 6m, SD 1y 11m). To analyse balance, sway velocity, radial displacement and frequency were calculated. Symmetry ratios were calculated for balance measures and spatio-temporal parameters during walking. Results Most spatio-temporal parameters of gait, as well as all parameters of balance, improved significantly after SDR. Preoperative values of symmetry did not vary considerably between CP and TDC group and significant postoperative improvement did not occur. Interpretation The reduction of afferent signalling through SDR improves gait by reducing balance problems rather than enhancing movement symmetry.

description: The first generation of immune checkpoint inhibitors (anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1/PD-L1) targeted natural immune homeostasis pathways, co-opted by cancers, to drive anti-tumor immune responses. These agents led to unprecedented results in patients with previously incurable metastatic disease and may become first-line therapies for some advanced cancers. However, these agents are efficacious in only a minority of patients. Newer strategies are becoming available that target additional immunomodulatory mechanisms to activate patients’ own anti tumor immune responses. Herein, we present a succinct summary of emerging immune targets with reported pre-clinical efficacy that have progressed to active investigation in clinical trials. These emerging targets include co-inhibitory and co-stimulatory markers of the innate and adaptive immune system. In this review, we discuss: 1) T lymphocyte markers: Lymphocyte Activation Gene 3 [LAG-3], T-cell Immunoglobulinand Mucin-domain-containing molecule 3 [TIM-3], V-domain containing Ig Suppressor of T cell Activation [VISTA], T cell ImmunoGlobulin and ITIM domain [TIGIT], B7-H3, Inducible T-cell Co-stimulator [ICOS/ICOSL], CD27/CD70, and Glucocorticoid-Induced TNF Receptor [GITR]; 2) macrophage markers: CD47/Signal-Regulatory Protein alpha [SIRPα] and Indoleamine-2,3-Dioxygenase [IDO]; and 3) natural killer cell markers: CD94/NKG2A and the Killer Immunoglobulin-like receptor [KIR] family. Finally, we briefly highlight combination strategies and potential biomarkers of response and resistance to these cancer immunotherapies.

description: Background/Aims: A recent study revealed that global overexpression of ET-1 causes a slight reduction in systemic blood pressure. Moreover, heterozygous ET-1 knockout mice are hypertensive. The role of ET-1 in human hypertension was so far not addressed by a strict meta-analysis of published human clinical studies. Methods: We included studies published between January 1, 1990 and February 28, 2017. We included case control studies analyzing untreated essential hypertension or hypertensive patients where antihypertensive medication was discontinued for at least two weeks. Based on the principle of Cochrane systematic reviews, case control studies (CCSs) in PubMed (Medline) and Google Scholar designed to identify the role of endothelin-1 (ET-1) in the pathophysiological of hypertension were screened. Review Manager Version 5.0 (Rev-Man 5.0) was applied for statistical analysis. Mean difference and 95% confidence interval (CI) were shown in inverse variance (IV) fixed-effects model or IV random-effects models. Results: Eleven studies fulfilling our in- and exclusion criteria were eligible for this meta-analysis. These studies included 450 hypertensive patients and 328 controls. Our meta-analysis revealed that ET-1 plasma concentrations were higher in hypertensive patients as compared to the control patients [mean difference between groups 1.57 pg/mL, 95%CI [0.47∼2.68, P = 0.005]. These finding were driven by patients having systolic blood pressure higher than 160 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure higher than 100 mmHg. Conclusions: This meta-analysis showed that hypertensive patients do have elevated plasma ET-1 concentrations. This finding is driven by those patients with high systolic/diastolic blood pressure. Given that the ET-1 gene did not appear in any of the whole genome association studies searching for hypertension associated gene loci, it is very likely that the elevated plasma ET-1 concentrations in hypertensive patients are secondary to hypertension and may reflect endothelial cell damage.
Investigating the efficacy of an intensive English program and the L2 learners' learning styles

description: Past research has found that many pre-university L2 learners, having completed an Intensive English Program (IEP) still have difficulty in undertaking various disciplines in English-speaking tertiary institutions and continue to exhibit numerous linguistic problems (Bialystok, 2001, Celce Murcia 2001). The purpose of this paper is to present the findings on the investigation of L2 learners' English proficiency in reading, writing, grammar, listening and speaking upon their completion of an Intensive English (IE) program using their IELTS (Academic), in-house exams and English Placement Tests (EPT) scores, and the efficacy of IE program. IELTS test is chosen for this study due to its increasing popularityin Malaysia and its internationally recognised value and quality. The study was conducted in two parts. In Part One, all 72 Level 4 IE students were given an in-house EPT (English Placement Test) pre-test on their entry and another EPT post-test on their exit, and then their pre-test and post-test results were compared. In Part Two, 22 volunteers sat the IELTS test at the end of the program. The IELTS results of the 22 volunteers were compared with those who did not. Data were analyzed using both quantitative and qualitative methods. This paper hopes to shed some light on (i) whether or not L2 learners' English language proficiency can be significantly enhanced and influenced by an intensive English program and (ii) how leaners' perception of their own learning strategies influence their learning progress.
