description: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), a rare vasculopathy progressively leading to right heart failure and death, is associated with considerable economic burden. Oral prostacyclin pathway agents (PPAs) like selexipag and treprostinil address an underlying PAH pathway, yet are often under-utilized. Data on head-to-head cost comparison of various PPAs is lacking. In this retrospective study using a large health claims database, we compared the per-patient-per-year (PPPY) costs and healthcare resource utilization (HRU) among PAH patients taking either oral selexipag, inhaled treprostinil or oral treprostinil in the United States between July 2015 and March 2020. Patients with ≥1 prescription for one of the drugs of interest, ≥1 in-patient pulmonary hypertension (PH) diagnosis, or ≥ 2 outpatient PH diagnoses were included in this study. Baseline differences between the three groups were adjusted using an inverse probability of treatment weighting approach. 411 patients were selected for the final study cohorts. All-cause hospitalization costs were highest for oral treprostinil ($39,983) compared to oral selexipag ($20,635) and inhaled treprostinil ($16,548; p = .037). Total PAH-related medical costs were 40% lower for patients on oral selexipag compared to patients on oral and inhaled treprostinil ($24,351 vs. $40,398 and $40,339, respectively; p = .006). PAH-related outpatient visits were lowest for patients on oral selexipag (14 PPPY visits) compared to oral treprostinil (16 PPPY visits) and inhaled treprostinil (22 PPPY visits; p = .001). Compared to oral and inhaled treprostinil, oral selexipag may incur lower medical costs and reduce PAH related outpatient visits for patients with PAH.

description: Testing in production-like test environments is an essential part of quality assurance processes in many industries. Provisioning of such test environments, for information-intensive services, involves setting up databases that are rich-enough to enable simulating a wide variety of user scenarios. While production data is perhaps the gold-standard here, many organizations, particularly within the public sectors, are not allowed to use production data for testing purposes due to privacy concerns. The alternatives are to use anonymized data, or synthetically generated data. In this paper, we elaborate on these alternatives and compare them in an industrial context. Further we focus on synthetic data generation and investigate the use of recurrent neural networks for this purpose. In our preliminary experiments, we were able to generate representative and highly accurate data using a recurrent neural network. These results open new research questions that we discuss here, and plan to investigate in our future research.

description: Optical interconnects have attracted significant research interest for use in short-reach board-level optical communication links in supercomputers and data centres. Multimode polymer waveguides in particular constitute an attractive technology for on-board optical interconnects as they provide high bandwidth, offer relaxed alignment tolerances, and can be cost-effectively integrated onto standard printed circuit boards (PCBs). However, the continuing improvements in bandwidth performance of optical sources make it important to investigate approaches to develop high bandwidth polymer waveguides. In this paper, we present dispersion studies on a graded-index (GI) waveguide in siloxane materials designed to deliver high bandwidth over a range of launch conditions. Bandwidth-length products of >70 GHzxm and ~65 GHzxm are observed using a 50/125 um multimode fibre (MMF) launch for input offsets of +/- 10 um without and with the use of a mode mixer respectively; and enhanced values of >100 GHzxm are found under a 10x microscope objective launch for input offsets of ~18 x 20 um^2. The large range of offsets is within the -1 dB alignment tolerances. A theoretical model is developed using the measured refractive index profile of the waveguide, and general agreement is found with experimental bandwidth measurements. The reported results clearly demonstrate the potential of this technology for use in high-speed board-level optical links, and indicate that data transmission of 100 Gb/s over a multimode polymer waveguide is feasible with appropriate refractive index engineering.

description: Since 2003 many charmonium-like states were observed experimentally. Especially those charged charmonium-like $Z_c$ states and bottomonium-like $Z_b$ states cannot be accommodated within the naive quark model, which are good candidates of either the hidden-charm tetraquark states or molecules composed of a pair of charmed mesons. In 2015, the LHCb Collaboration discovered two hidden-charm pentaquark states, which are also beyond the quark model. In this talk, we review the current experimental progress and investigate various theoretical interpretations of these candidates of the multiquark states. We list the puzzles and theoretical challenges of these models when confronted with the experimental data. We also discuss possible future measurements which may distinguish the theoretical schemes on the underlying structures of the hidden-charm multiquark states.

description: Field and pot experiments were conducted to select and identify the characteristics of potassium (K) high efficiency vegetable soybean genotypes. Forty genotypes under two potassium application levels (0, 120 kg ha−1 K2SO4) showed variations in K concentration, K accumulation, K internal use efficiency (KIUE) and K harvest index (KHI) in field experiment conducted in 2016. According to the distinct KIUE for yield (KIUE-Y) and KHI, two K high efficiency (KHE) genotypes (T117, L113) and two K low efficiency (KLE) genotypes (DZ1, ZX8) were used in pot experiment with two K levels (0, 120 kg ha−1 K2SO4) in 2017 for further investigation. Results indicated that KIUE-Y was significantly correlated with harvest index (HI) and KHI. Both K and dry matter (DW) were optimally distributed in the seed of KHE genotypes. In contrast, more DW and K were accumulated in vegetative organs of KLE genotypes, which was the main reason limiting K efficiency. Under K deficiency, KHE genotypes better regulate their DW and K distribution, and have higher specific leaf weight with unaffected leaf area.

description: We produce two strings of quantum random numbers simultaneously from the intensity fluctuations of the twin beams generated by a nondegenerate optical parametric oscillator. Two strings of quantum random numbers with bit rates up to 60 Mb/s are extracted simultaneously with a suitable post-processing algorithm. By post-selecting the identical data from two raw sequences and using a suitable hash function, we also extract two strings of identical quantum random numbers. The obtained random numbers pass all NIST randomness tests. The presented scheme shows the feasibility of generating quantum random numbers from the intensity of a macroscopic optical field.

description: Using a national electronic health records (EHR) database, the current study describes treatments, depression severity, and health care resource utilisation (HRU) among patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) and acute suicidal ideation or behavior (MDSI) prior to, during, and following a suicide-related event in the United States. This retrospective matched cohort study used data collected from the Optum electronic health record de-identified database for patients with diagnosis codes for MDD and acute suicidal ideation or behavior, and a propensity-score matched cohort of patients without MDD or a suicide-related event. The study period was 31/10/2015-30/9/2019. MDD-related treatments and 9-item Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) scores, when available, were assessed at the first health care encounter for a suicide-related event (index period), 12 months before (pre-period), and 6 months after (post-period). All-cause and MDD-related HRU were assessed during the post-period. The mean (SD) age of patients with MDSI was 39 (16) years; 55.0% were female. Index events occurred as follows: inpatient stay, 38.9%; observation unit stay, 4.6%; emergency department (ED) visit, 46.5%; and outpatient visit, 10.1%. Antidepressants and psychotherapy were the most common pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic treatments, respectively, prescribed during the pre- (31.3%, 9.5%, respectively) and index (41.2%, 18.7%, respectively) periods. Post-period data (n = 40,261) revealed only 43.4% received an antidepressant and 20.5% had psychotherapy after the suicide-related event. Few patients had PHQ-9 scores recorded during the pre- (4.4%), index (1.3%), and post- (7.6%) periods. During the post-period, 11.8%, 5.0%, and 33.1% of patients had ≥1 all-cause inpatient stay, observation unit stay, and emergency department visit, respectively; 61.0% had ≥1 all-cause, and 33.4% ≥1 MDD-related, outpatient visit. Most patients with MDSI and an inpatient encounter or ED visit were discharged to home or self-care (65.4%). Odds of an all-cause hospital encounter during the post-period were higher for patients with, versus without MDSI (by 30.1, 33.5, and 33.9 times for inpatient stay, ED visit and observation unit stay, respectively). This analysis highlights an opportunity to improve outcomes for this vulnerable population. More complete data on patient outcomes is needed to inform strategies designed to optimize screening and treatment.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.

description: Background: Commonly used methods of comparison (e.g. network meta-analyses) require common comparator(s) across trials, such as placebo in placebo-controlled trials. Recent literature indicates that route of administration differences across placebo arms of clinical trials in pain disorders may contribute to differences in placebo effect. Methods: We conducted a meta-regression on placebo data from pivotal clinical trials of anti-calcitonin gene-related peptide (anti-CGRP) monoclonal antibodies for migraine prevention to quantify the impact of route of administration, migraine type (episodic/chronic), and number of prior treatment failures on placebo reduction in monthly migraine days (MMDs) across weeks 1–12 of treatment. A systematic literature review of Embase, MEDLINE, the Cochrane Library, and grey literature conducted in June 2021 identified 14 relevant, randomized placebo-controlled trials for analysis. Results: After testing models with different covariates, a meta-regression was fitted to the extracted placebo data with the covariates of route of administration, migraine type, and proportion of patients with ≥2 prior preventive treatment failures. An intravenous route of administration for the placebo arm was a predictor for higher MMD reduction. Predictors of lower MMD reduction were migraine type (episodic migraine) and a higher proportion of patients having ≥2 failed preventive treatments. Conclusions: The efficacy of intravenous anti-CGRP monoclonal antibodies are likely underestimated, and differences in the route of administration of placebo may necessitate use of alternative methods that do not assume the presence of a common comparator when comparing anti-CGRP monoclonal antibodies in migraine prevention. Further research into the contextual effects of the placebo effect is warranted.

Interest group influence on the development of International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) 9, Financial Instruments

description: The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) finalised its International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) 9 Financial Instruments project in July 2014. The project was significant, resulting in the replacement of the previous International Accounting Standard (IAS) 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement with a new accounting standard that will be effective from January 2018. However, interest groups’ involvement in the development of the crucial IFRS 9 expected credit loss model from the release of its first proposal until the issue of its final proposal has not been studied. Redressing the research gap, this study investigates whether significant influence had been exerted by interest groups on the IASB during the development of all three expected credit loss model proposals of the IFRS 9 impairment phase. By conducting content analysis on 327 comment letters, this study did not find significant influence by any particular interest group across five out of the six key changes identified amongst the proposals (the 2009 exposure draft, 2011 supplementary document and 2013 exposure draft). Additional analysis conducted on the comment letters, the IASB expert advisory panel summary document and the two IASB outreach summary documents identified that interest group inputs had played an important role in shaping the proposed expected credit loss models, making them more operational, less complex and productive of more comparable financial information (within and across entities) than the preceding proposals. This study has important theoretical and practical implications.

description: The three-dimensional diffusive-thermal stability of a two-dimensional flame propagating in a Poiseuille flow is examined. The study explores the effect of three non-dimensional parameters, namely the Lewis number $Le$, the Damköhler number $Da$, and the flow Peclet number $Pe$. Wide ranges of the Lewis number and the flow amplitude are covered, as well as conditions corresponding to small-scale narrow ($Da \ll 1$) to large-scale wide ($Da \gg 1$) channels. The instability experienced by the flame appears as a combination of the traditional diffusive-thermal instability of planar flames and the recently identified instability corresponding to a transition from symmetric to asymmetric flame. The instability regions are identified in the $Le$-$Pe$ plane for selected values of $Da$ by computing the eigenvalues of a linear stability problem. These are complemented by two- and three-dimensional time-dependent simulations describing the full evolution of unstable flames into the non-linear regime. In narrow channels, flames are found to be always symmetric about the mid-plane of the channel. Additionally, in these situations, shear flow-induced Taylor dispersion enhances the cellular instability in $Le<1$ mixtures and suppresses the oscillatory instability in $Le>1$ mixtures. In large-scale channels, however, both the cellular and the oscillatory instabilities are expected to persist. Here, the flame has a stronger propensity to become asymmetric when the mean flow opposes its propagation and when $Le<1$; if the mean flow facilitates the flame propagation, then the flame is likely to remain symmetric about the channel mid-plane. For $Le>1$, both symmetric and asymmetric flames are encountered and are accompanied by temporal oscillations.

description: Growth, electronic and magnetic properties of $γ'$-Fe$_{4}$N atomic layers on Cu(001) are studied by scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy and x-ray absorption spectroscopy/magnetic circular dichroism. A continuous film of ordered trilayer $γ'$-Fe$_{4}$N is obtained by Fe deposition under N$_{2}$ atmosphere onto monolayer Fe$_{2}$N/Cu(001), while the repetition of a bombardment with 0.5 keV N$^{+}$ ions during growth cycles results in imperfect bilayer $γ'$-Fe$_{4}$N. The increase in the sample thickness causes the change of the surface electronic structure, as well as the enhancement in the spin magnetic moment of Fe atoms reaching $\sim$ 1.4 $μ_{\mathrm B}$/atom in the trilayer sample. The observed thickness-dependent properties of the system are well interpreted by layer-resolved density of states calculated using first principles, which demonstrates the strongly layer-dependent electronic states within each surface, subsurface, and interfacial plane of the $γ'$-Fe$_{4}$N atomic layers on Cu(001).

Meetings at the table of time: a creative practice enquiry into Carnatic jazz intercultural music
Creators: name: Evans, Sandra Janette
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Diverse musical, cultural, and aesthetic components converge when musicians from Carnatic and jazz backgrounds collaborate. Improvisation is integral to musical practice in both jazz and Carnatic music. This commonality of process often motivates and guides intercultural collaborations. In the ensuing creative process established guidelines about improvisatory codes, compositional models, instrumental roles, and aesthetics are often challenged and reconstructed. Research about compositional and improvisatory strategies in this area is sparse. This practice-based research aims to advance understandings about Carnatic jazz intercultural music through three creative practice projects and their exegesis.This study is undertaken from my perspective as a Sydney-based composer and saxophonist. The creative practice projects are: ‘Cosmic Waves’, ‘Mantratonic’, and ‘Meetings at the Table of Time’. The outcomes are documented in two CDs of studio recordings, one CD of live performances in India, and a portfolio of scores. I played saxophone, composed most of the music, and directed the performances. Collaboration and study with Carnatic mridangam virtuoso Guru Kaaraikkudi Mani and his ensemble Sruthi Laya, and Carnatic vocalist and sitar player Sarangan Sriranganathan, is central to the creative work. Areas investigated include the application of Carnatic rhythmic and melodic principles in an intercultural context, instrumental roles and orchestration, and improvised musical dialogue.Carnatic jazz intercultural music is created in a dynamic, highly charged field of change. Multiple viewpoints co-exist simultaneously as musicians express connections to their musical, cultural, and personal histories, and responses to new relationships, sounds, and processes. As individual and group knowledge grows, so do choices about the creative use of this knowledge. This study aims to: 1. Identify, generate, and develop effective approaches to intercultural collaboration between jazz musicians and Carnatic musicians and, 2. Produce artistically strong outcomes in and through such collaborations, outcomes that respect and integrate the aesthetic preferences of all the musicians involved -- Abstract.

description: The SUNRISE balloon-borne solar observatory, consisting of a 1~m aperture telescope that provided a stabilized image to a UV filter imager and an imaging vector polarimeter, carried out its second science flight in June 2013. It provided observations of parts of active regions at high spatial resolution, including the first high-resolution images in the Mg~{\sc ii}~k line. The obtained data are of very high quality, with the best UV images reaching the diffraction limit of the telescope at 3000~Å after Multi-Frame Blind Deconvolution reconstruction accounting for phase-diversity information. Here a brief update is given of the instruments and the data reduction techniques, which includes an inversion of the polarimetric data. Mainly those aspects that evolved compared with the first flight are described. A tabular overview of the observations is given. In addition, an example time series of a part of the emerging active region NOAA AR~11768 observed relatively close to disk centre is described and discussed in some detail. The observations cover the pores in the trailing polarity of the active region, as well as the polarity inversion line where flux emergence was ongoing and a small flare-like brightening occurred in the course of the time series. The pores are found to contain magnetic field strengths ranging up to 2500~G and, while large pores are clearly darker and cooler than the quiet Sun in all layers of the photosphere, the temperature and brightness of small pores approach or even exceed those of the quiet Sun in the upper photosphere.

description: Gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a common, chronic gastrointestinal condition characterized by heartburn, chest pain, regurgitation, and bloating. Current standard of care includes chronic treatment with proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) or, in selected patients, laparoscopic anti-reflux surgery. RefluxStop is a novel implantable device indicated for GERD patients eligible for laparoscopic surgical treatment. The aim of this analysis was to assess the cost-effectiveness of RefluxStop against available treatment options for GERD. A Markov model was developed to assess the cost-effectiveness of RefluxStop compared with PPI-based medical management (MM) and two surgical management options, LNF and magnetic sphincter augmentation (MSA, LINX system), in people with GERD. Clinical outcomes and costs were estimated over a lifetime horizon from the UK National Health Service perspective and an annual discount rate of 3.5% was applied. RefluxStop showed favorable surgical outcomes compared with both LNF and MSA. The base case incremental cost-effectiveness ratios compared with MM, LNF, and MSA were £4,156, £6,517, and £249 per QALY gained, respectively. At the UK cost effectiveness threshold of £20,000 per QALY gained, the probability that RefluxStop was cost-effective against MM, LNF, and MSA was 100%, 93%, and 100%, respectively. The model presented the results of a naïve comparison, with evidence for RefluxStop derived from its single-arm CE mark trial and that for comparators from the literature. The varied clinical care pathway of individual GERD patients was necessarily simplified for modelling purposes, and necessary assumptions were made; however, the model results proved robust to sensitivity analyses. Introduction of RefluxStop was estimated to extend life expectancy and improve quality of life of GERD patients when compared with MM, LNF and MSA. The results of the cost-effectiveness analysis demonstrated that RefluxStop is highly likely to be a cost-effective treatment option within NHS England.

description: This paper presents the construction of a new set of generalized photon-added coherent states related to associated hypergeometric functions introduced in our previous work (Hounkonnou M N and Sodoga K, 2005, J. Phys. A: Math. Gen 38, 7851). These states satisfy all required mathematical and physical properties. The associated Stieltjes power-moment problem is explicitly solved by using Meijer's G-function and the Mellin inversion theorem. Relevant quantum optical and thermal characteristics are investigated. The formalism is applied to particular cases of the associated Hermite, Laguerre, Jacobi polynomials and hypergeometric functions. Their corresponding states exhibit sub-Poissonian photon number statistics.

description: MO-induced gro/tle loss of function phenotypes. Embryos at the 1-cell stage were co-injected with morpholino oligonucleotides and 1 μg/ml FITC-dextran. Injections were performed using either a single morpholino directed against tle1 (C), tle2b (D,F), and tle3b (E), or combinations directed against tle1 + 2b (H), tle1 + 3b (I), tle2b + 3b (J), and tle1 + 2b + 3b (K). Single morpholino oligonucleotides were injected at a concentration of 600 μM (C-F) and combinatorial injections (H-K) were performed using 300 μM of each MO. Phenotypes of FITC-dextran positive embryos were observed after the beginning of eye pigmentation at stage 32 (B-F) and stage 28 (G-K). (B,G) Wild type control embryos were injected with 1× Yamamoto’s and FITC-dextran. All embryos are shown in dorsal view with anterior at the top. Compared to the wild type controls (B,G), morpholino injected embryos developed smaller eyes that were shifted towards the midline (D,E,J,K) or cyclopic eyes (C,H,I). In rare cases the eyes were lost entirely (E). (A) Phenotypes of FITC-positive embryos were categorized at stage 28-32 into weak and strong phenotypes. Weak phenotypes developed smaller eyes that were shifted towards the midline, whereas strong phenotypes showed cyclopic eyes. Eye-less phenotypes were included into the group of strong phenotypes.

description: Semantic segmentation and activity classification are key components to creating intelligent surgical systems able to understand and assist clinical workflow. In the Operating Room, semantic segmentation is at the core of creating robots aware of clinical surroundings, whereas activity classification aims at understanding OR workflow at a higher level. State-of-the-art semantic segmentation and activity recognition approaches are fully supervised, which is not scalable. Self-supervision can decrease the amount of annotated data needed. We propose a new 3D self-supervised task for OR scene understanding utilizing OR scene images captured with ToF cameras. Contrary to other self-supervised approaches, where handcrafted pretext tasks are focused on 2D image features, our proposed task consists of predicting the relative 3D distance of image patches by exploiting the depth maps. Learning 3D spatial context generates discriminative features for our downstream tasks. Our approach is evaluated on two tasks and datasets containing multi-view data captured from clinical scenarios. We demonstrate a noteworthy improvement of performance on both tasks, specifically on low-regime data where utility of self-supervised learning is the highest.

description: We report new observations from a systematic, spectroscopic, ultraviolet absorption-line survey that maps the spatial and kinematic properties of the high-velocity gas in the Galactic Center region. We examine the hypothesis that this gas traces the biconical nuclear outflow. We use ultraviolet spectra of 47 background QSOs and halo stars projected inside and outside the northern Fermi Bubble from the Hubble Space Telescope to study the incidence of high velocity absorption around it. We use five lines of sight inside the northern Fermi Bubble to constrain the velocity and column densities of outflowing gas traced by O I, Al II, C II, C IV, Si II, Si III, Si IV and other species. All five lines of sight inside the northern Fermi Bubble exhibit blueshifted high velocity absorption components, whereas only 9 out of the 42 lines of sight outside the northern Fermi Bubble exhibit blueshifted high velocity absorption components. The observed outflow velocity profile decreases with Galactic latitude and radial distance (R) from the Galactic Center. The observed blueshifted velocities change from $v_{GSR}$=-265 km/s at R~2.3 kpc to $v_{GSR}$=-91 km/s at R~6.5 kpc. We derive the metallicity of the entrained gas along the 1H1613-097 sightline, which passes through the center of the northern Fermi Bubble, finding [O/H] $\gtrsim -0.54 \pm 0.15$. A simple kinematic model tuned to match the observed absorption component velocities along the five lines of sight inside the Bubble, constrains the outflow velocities to ~1000$-$1300 km/s, and the age of the outflow to be ~ 6$-$9 Myr. We estimate a minimum mass outflow rate for the nuclear outflow to be $\gtrsim$ 0.2 $\rm{ M_{\odot}\; yr^{-1}}$. Combining the age and mass outflow rates, we determine a minimum mass of total UV absorbing cool gas entrained in the Fermi Bubbles to be $\gtrsim \rm{ 2 \times 10^{6} M_{\odot}}$.
