Archaeology

description: For decades, Czech archaeology has been gradually digitizing the field, but the breakthrough was brought about by the establishment of the Archaeological Information System of the Czech Republic (AIS CR), a large research infrastructure for archaeological data. Today, it forms the backbone of field research activities in Czechia, providing a wide range of tools, supporting various user communities, serving as a hub for disseminating best practices and a gateway to collaboration with foreign countries. The presentation will summarize the obstacles that had to be overcome in the creation of such a large-scale system, how the professional community was convinced to share data, and how it was possible to use the digital environment to engage citizen science and to start overcoming long-unresolved difficulties (eg. regarding metal detecting). AIS CR demonstrates in practice how digitization, openness and following FAIR principles can contribute to an change in the handling of disciplinary data, helping to integrate the sector and bring science closer to the broadest public. It is building trust in a stable team and its open communication that together lead to changes in the entire disciplinary environment, while simultaneously increasing the potential of data for reproducible scientific research and solid culture heritage management.

Archivematica

description: In its two most recent five year strategic plans, Oregon State University Libraries and Press (OSULP) expressed commitments to the long term maintenance and preservation of digitized library content and curated university digital scholarship, calling for the creation of a “robust and flexible digital preservation and curation infrastructure” and “a long-term preservation system for university scholarship and digital collections developed and curated by OSU Libraries and Press.” A 2017 report described the current state of the library’s digital preservation efforts and included the following digital preservation infrastructure recommendations: using Archivematica for all the digital preservation targets contained within various repositories, increased use of the MetaArchive distributed digital preservation platform, and shifting to incremental and full backups of all digital content to cloud storage. In this presentation, the authors analyze the types and sources of content that have been selected for preservation and how they have been preserved. The presentation provides a review of what is and is not working for digital preservation at OSULP based on the recommendations and findings.

description: Non-Hispanic Black women have higher bone mass and lower rates of osteoporosis; however, age-related bone loss occurs at rates equal to other races. Osteopenia or osteoporotic occurs at greater age for non-Hispanic black women and may increase their risk of poor outcomes post an osteoporotic injury. It is important to determine what clinical characteristics or assessment standards to use to predict who may be more likely to develop osteopenia or osteoporosis in this population. A retrospective database analysis of NHANES 4-year survey cycle: 2007-208 and 2009-2010 to examine characteristics associated with low bone mass and osteoporosis in non-Hispanic Black females aged 20 and older. Evaluation of standard bone mineral density (BMD) T-scores compared to mean referent value for young, healthy non-Hispanic black females BMD scores.A total of 190 (20.7%) non-Hispanic Black females had osteopenia or osteoporosis compared to 770 (32.3%) non-Hispanic white females(p

description: REDI+ is the Ecuadorian project of CEDIA for setting up and operate the national information of Science, Technology, and Innovation. It is an open standards-based platform, specifically as a central aggregator of open access repositories of Ecuador. The main goal of this project is to develop an open, interoperable, and integrated national platform that provides information of publications, researchers, patents, events, services, and general results of science and technology, and innovation. Besides, the platform allows providing value-added services for access to enriched data and aggregated information to improve decision-making at different levels, local, institutional, and in the private sector. The vision is to have an information ecosystem of research, technology, and innovation in Ecuador to provide value, accessibility, and development for all people. The project REDI+ started in 2021 and we are working with a basic metadata model based on "Common European Research Information Format" CERIF and a Linked Data platform based on FAIR principles, and Plan S in the Open Science line. On this hand, we are collaborating with different NRESs around the world to reuse technologies and define infrastructures and metadata guidelines to provide Ecuadorian institutions at first a platform to manage the actors and resources around the research ecosystem.
An analyses of outcomes and characteristics of patients undergoing elective procedures for managing risk or presence of breast cancer
Creators: name: Fleischer, Judith
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2020

description: Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed female cancer in the United States. According to the American Cancer Society in 2020 there will be an estimated 276,480 new cases of invasive breast cancer diagnosed in the United States. Surgery continues to be the gold standard for treatment. While breast conserving surgery has been widely accepted, many patients elect mastectomy. The objective of this study was to examine hospital characteristics of mastectomy patients to determine what factors impact length of stay, total charges and in-patient mortality. The objective of this study was to analyze the frequency of mastectomy, whether for risk reduction or the presence of disease. This study utilized the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database for years 2008 to 2011 to examine patient demographic characteristics such as age, race, insurance type and income. SPSS statistical analysis version22 was utilized for analysis, with p values less than .05 considered significant. Linear regression, Logistic Regression, A NOVA and Chi-Square were used to determine significant predictors of study outcomesBetween 2008 and 2011, 55,781 female patients underwent mastectomy with 76.7% electing unilateral mastectomy. Immediate breast reconstruction occurred in 38.6% of patients. The highest incidence of mastectomy occurred in White and Asian women. The total number of discharges revealed privately insured White and Asian women had the highest discharge each year. A further analysis regarding income revealed Whites and Asians also had the highest income. Length of stay remained consistent from 2008 through 2011. Mortality was insignificant among the mastectomy population with Blacks seen to have the highest percentage of in-hospital mortality. Fluid and electrolyte disorders were found to be the highest predictors of mortality. Overall totals costs were on a rising trend and consistent with type of mastectomy.Among hospital inpatients electing mastectomy, there were racial differences that occurred in treatment and outcomes. This study highlighted hospitalization characteristics related to female mastectomy admissions in the United States between 2008 and 2011. Racial disparities in treatment and outcomes highlight areas where efforts may be focused to improve survival among specific population groups. Future research should be targeted on identifying specific causes of racial differences in patients electing mastectomy and outcomes related thereto. This study validates the importance of health education to improve health awareness. Policies promoting early childhood health education may provide the necessary knowledge and life skills to aid in navigating access to resources to promote better health.

Repository integrations

description: In this presentation, practitioners from the Georgia Tech Library will describe our collaboration with DSpace vendor Atmire to deploy code customization allowing greater granularity over access permissions to our unique digital content, and to merge two locally hosted DSpace instances. This collaboration arose from efforts at Georgia Tech to bridge the traditionally separate worlds of the institutional repository and archival digital collections by employing a loosely integrated ecosystem of DSpace, ArchivesSpace, Archivematica, and Vireo. A first step in this effort was to merge two locally hosted DSpace instances used for quite different purposes: our open access institutional repository and a dark archive of both unprocessed born-digital materials and preservation copies of digitized files. Because DSpace is inherently designed for providing open access to an institution’s intellectual output, we required code customization that would allow greater control over access to the restricted content migrated from our dark archive. We collaborated with Atmire to develop a phased deployment process that would allow Georgia Tech to maintain our local technical institutional knowledge and administrative control while employing Atmire’s specialized skill set in DSpace code customization and support. We will share lessons learned about the costs and benefits of this more complex deployment strategy.

The role of formula low energy diets in Type 2 diabetes mellitus patients treated with insulin
Creators: name: Brown, Adrian
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) and obesity are two of the key health challenges of modern society. With an ageing population and increasing life expectancy, advanced T2D, including those treated with insulin, is now frequent within clinical practice. Effective treatment of glycaemic control in those treated with insulin relies at present on insulin intensification, that although effective at managing blood glucose, is associated with weight gain and an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality. Bariatric surgery has been shown to be one of the most effective treatments for obesity and T2D. One key mechanism by which bariatric surgery aids diabetes control is through energy restriction. The use of formula low energy diet (LED) to replicate this and attendant significant weight loss has been observed to bring about T2D remission in those with recently diagnosed T2D patients. However, evidence for the use of these formula diets is lacking in those T2D patients concurrently treated with insulin. The work presented in this thesis aimed to investigate the role of formula low energy diets in obese type 2 diabetes patients concurrently treated with insulin. Investigation 1 studied the effect of a formula LED, over a 24-week period, on weight loss insulin usage, and glycaemic control in obese T2D patients treated with insulin compared with gold standard clinical care (GSC). The presented data demonstrates that those on an LED had greater weight loss, improvement in HbA1c, and reduction in insulin usage compared to GSC. Investigation 2 studied the effect of weight loss induced by an LED on surrogate markers of CVD. Compared with GSC, there were key reductions in triglycerides, diastolic blood pressure and high sensitivity C-reactive protein. Based on CVD risk algorithms, there may be a CVD benefit of weight loss through LED, at least in the short term. The work presented in the thesis helps to support the use of formula LED as a therapeutic treatment for complex T2D patients. The exact mechanisms by which the LED brings about the observed improvements in glycaemic control and reduction in insulin usage remains be determined.
Investigating the ability of host factors to restrict influenza A viruses
Creators: name: Vaughan, Aisling Marie
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: To replicate successfully, an invading virus must avoid restriction executed by a multitude of host cell intrinsic factors and interferon stimulated genes (ISGs). While the roles of a number of key antiviral proteins have been delineated, the majority of these factors remain largely uncharacterized. In this study, a number of intrinsic and interferon inducible host factors were assessed for their ability to restrict influenza A replication. Three specific factors were studied in detail that inhibited replication at entry, polymerase activity and exit. Ly6E, a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored, interferon-inducible protein was found to target an early, post-entry stage of influenza A replication. Overexpression of Ly6E inhibited virus infection, and decreased the expression of reporter viral-like RNA when driven by infecting virus, but not when driven by polymerase components reconstituted in situ. Ly6E was found to modulate interferon signaling. These results are consistent with published data, which point to a role of this GPI-linked in cell signaling and suggest that Ly6E is a negative regulator of the IFN response. Taken together the results show Ly6E to be an antiviral and proviral factor, a duality that has been observed for other host factors. GBP3, an interferon inducible member of the guanylate binding protein family, was also found to inhibit virus replication when overexpressed. This protein inhibited the reconstituted viral polymerase derived from avian influenza viruses more efficiently than those cloned from human adapted viruses suggesting adaptation of avian viruses to species mammalian may involve strategies to avoid this antiviral factor. Finally, the ability of the SERINC family to inhibit influenza A virus was investigated. Unlike other host factors studied in this thesis, the members of this family of multipass transmembrane proteins are not induced by interferon. However, they are of significant interest as they have previously been shown to inhibit HIV-1 infectivity when incorporated into virions. We found that overexpression of SERINC2, 3 and 5 inhibited replication of influenza A and that expression of MLV GlycoGag (known to counter SERINC activity) rescues this restriction. Interestingly, we observed a reduction in particle number rather than infectivity of particles produced in SERINC expressing cells. These data suggest that the SERINC proteins may function to restrict other viruses outside of their published roles in the inhibition of retroviruses. Taken together this study highlights the ability of human host factors to affect multiple steps in the influenza A virus replication cycle, and broadens our understanding of the complex interplay between influenza A virus and the host.

Towards the endothelialisation of tissue engineered heart valves: potential of endothelial progenitor cells
Creators: name: Marei, Isra Yousef
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: Background: Currently used replacements to treat heart valve disease are associated with drawbacks that limit their function in the long term. These drawbacks have been linked to the inability of such substitutes to remodel in response to the surrounding environment, due to the absence of viable cells in their composition. In situ tissue engineering of heart valves provides a promise to resolve these limitations. One of the potential endogenous cell sources to endothelialise and populate tissue engineering scaffolds is endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs), which have been shown to participate in repair mechanisms. Thus, the aim of this work was to biofunctionalise polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofibrous scaffolds to enhance the adhesion and proliferation of a subset of EPCs that differentiate to blood outgrowth endothelial cells (BOECs). Approach: (i) BOECs and human valve endothelial cells (hVECs) were compared in terms of phenotype and function; (ii) the biocompatibility of BOECs (and hVECs) with PCL was determined; (iii) PCL was biofunctionalised using the BOEC-specific peptide (TPS), through a covalent crosslinking approach and functionality of the material was determined under static conditions as well as dynamic-flow conditions of the aortic valve, (iv) the ability of the biofunctionalised PCL to capture EPCs/BOECs directly from blood mononuclear cells was tested. Conclusion: BOECs characteristics and their compatibility with PCL make them a potential cell source for the endothelialisation of PCL tissue engineering scaffolds. Biofunctionalisation of PCL using TPS peptide enhanced BOECs capture, without inducing cytotoxicity or inflammatory responses. BOECs cultured on the material were able to align and secret endothelial mediators. Under dynamic conditions, BOECs were able to adhere, proliferate and infiltrate through the modified scaffolds. The modified scaffold was able to recruit endothelial cells from blood mononuclear cells under static conditions. These findings are promising, and should be confirmed under flow conditions in a bioreactor and in animal models.

description: Exoplanet discoveries have reached a number of 5000 in recent months. In considering the diversity and architecture of the systems , the host star must be characterised, in order for the astrophysical and orbital parameters of the planets to be constrained. Methods using spectroscopy, photometry, astrometry, and asteroseismology currently exist for such analysis. However, the expanding catalogue of exoplanetary systems lacks a formal, homogeonous approach to characterise their central bodies, their host stars.
 Using the Bayesian Stellar Algorithm (BASTA, Aguirre Borsen-Koch et al. 2022), alongside stellar evolution models (BaSTi Pietrinferni et al. 2021, we homogenise the characterisation of fundamental stellar parameters such as mass, radius, age, and heliocentric distance for 515 exoplanet host stars. This is done using data from Asteroseismology, and the novel data from the Gaia mission as inputs. The frequency modes of star’s intrinsic oscillations can tell us about their interior structure, and therefore their physical characteristics. Astrometric data from Gaia allow for the kinematics of the stars, and their stellar environments, to be precisely understood. Applying these methods and data to the known host stars will allow for a ‘gold sample’ of host stars with precise parameters to be created. As our understanding of host stars augments, we may also begin to question how they could be affected by external factors, such as ambient stellar density, and larger scale Galacto-kinematic structures, as in Winter et al. 2020, and Kruijssen et al. 2021. 6D phase space density is calculated for host stars of different planets, and the observational age bias caused by different planet detection methods is considered as a potential source for the phase space density - planet radius correlation.

description: Between 2018 and 2019, Jisc in the UK funded an effort to refresh the SWORD specification, with modern repository use cases in mind. As a result we produced a draft specification, extensively reviewed by a large number of the members of the repository community. In 2019, NII in Japan provided funding to produce a reference implementation against Invenio, and we worked to demonstrate that the specification is implementable and to release the final version. That work was completed during the pandemic, and a final version of SWORDv3 was released. This presentation will introduce the spec for those that are not familiar, and describe the technical and community-building work that has been going on since OR2019 when we last presented.
Seaward-dipping reflectors and the continent-to-ocean transition along the South American volcanic passive margin
Creators: name: McDermott, Carl
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: Thick packages of lavas forming seaward-dipping reflectors (SDRs) are diagnostic features of volcanic passive margins. SDR sequences form during the final stages of continental breakup, amid the transition from continental to oceanic crust (i.e. the COTZ). Despite their significance to continental breakup studies, the formation mechanism of SDRs is still debated. The ambiguity surrounding their formation is likely due to the paucity of high-quality depth-migrated seismic imagery along volcanic margins, however. Here, ~ 22,000 km of high-quality 2-D pre-stack depth-migrated seismic data, recorded by ION, are used to document the SDR geometry offshore Argentina, Uruguay and Brazil. The geological interpretation of these data is constrained using detailed reflection-based velocity analysis of long-offset (10.2 km) seismic gathers, conducted along three seismic profiles. Together, the measured reflection geometry and velocity structure provide novel insights into the formation of three new SDR facies (Type I, IIa & IIb SDRs). Type I SDRs are fault-bounded and associated with anomalously high-velocity bodies (6.5 - 7 km/s) both beneath and at the down-dip end of their diverging wedges. This facies is identified along the entire margin. Another set of (Type II) SDRs are observed outboard of, but onlapping, the Type I facies. Type II SDRs are not typically fault-bound and are not associated with high-velocity bodies. In the south, the Type II SDRs are short (IIa) with average lengths of 2 ± 2 km. Conversely, closer to the Paraná flood basalt province, Type II SDRs are longer (IIb) with average lengths of 27 ± 23 km. The Type I SDRs are interpreted as lava flows confined to continental half-grabens and sourced from point-source intrusive magmatic bodies, while Type II SDRs are erupted from linear sub-aerial spreading centres. The difference in the average length of the Type II SDRs is likely due to variations in the elevation of the source along the margin. Where the southern Type IIa lavas flow into standing bodies of water and the northern Type IIb typically do not. Interpreting volcanism using the facies presented in this thesis provides novel insights into; (1) the structure and formation of the COTZ, (2) the formation of early post-rift basins and (3) provides possible constraints on relative sea-level during magma-influenced continental breakup.

Domain-specific repository

description: As the US Department of Energy’s largest multi-program laboratory, Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) researchers are solving some of our world’s greatest challenges across a variety of domains. ORNL has world-leading facilities for neutron scattering, material and nanoscale research, additive manufacturing, high-performance computing, and several others. Embarking on a new initiative to connect instrument to compute, and with the advancement of machine learning (ML) and robotic automation, there are some key challenges for storing, sharing, and preserving these massive datasets. Constellation (https://doi.ccs.ornl.gov), our public data repository located at the Oak Ridge Leadership Facility (OLCF), is undergoing a redesign to address the next generation challenges of curating, sharing, and preserving petabyte files. In our presentation, we will discuss the challenges that we are facing and our proposed three-pronged approach: i) creatively repurposing existing tools and community development for automated curation; ii) identifying data “tiers” or stages based on preservation and discoverability needs; and iii) the creation of a domain-specific knowledge portal.
Essays in asset pricing - Information and stock markets

Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: The research in this thesis has been split into two chapters. Both deal with textual information and its impact on stock markets. Chapter 1 contains a discussion of the development of a database of textual news that are processed and creates a number of news characteristic variables to measure sentiment, novelty, relevance, ambiguity as well as the topics and entities mentioned in the news. The main contribution of this part is the database itself. We briefly show the descriptive statistics of the data set and also discuss the potential use of data. The second chapter, based on a draft written jointly with Pedro Saffi, builds on the author's work in the first chapter by testing news variables around earnings announcements. It finds that they indeed have an effect on abnormal returns after them. It focuses on post-earnings announcement drift, trying to evaluate the information value of news around these scheduled events. We look, in particular, at whether our news data can shed some light on information asymmetry and heterogeneous beliefs.

description: This presentation will outline our grant-funded research into building trust with smaller organizations in southwest Virginia by collaborating with stakeholders on curating non-custodial digital archives. Small regional institutions and organizations possess rich cultural heritage collections but lack robust digital infrastructure. This barrier inhibits broader access and use by researchers and the wider public. Larger institutions are able to digitize and provide access to such collections, though too often it occurs through physical acquisition, resulting in smaller institutions losing their unique materials. This presentation will describe our methods for building trust and infrastructure internally at Virginia Tech University Libraries and with cultural heritage institutions in southwest Virginia.

description: The poster will provide an overview of the ELD ADVANCE project supported by the European Open Science Cloud Digital Innovation HUB (EOSC DIH). In spring 2021, as part of the OpenAIRE ELD project 4Science released two new services: the Data Correction (based on the OpenAIRE Notification Broker), to enrich repository data by exploiting the vast amount of information made available by OpenAIRE, and the Publication Claim (based on the OpenAIRE Graph), to ensure that the repository stays up to date by automatically discovering new content produced by the institution’s researchers in the OpenAIRE Graph, thus reducing the manual input from researchers. This new project aims to achieve full impact extending these services to plain DSpace repositories making them available out-of-box in the latest releases of DSpace as it was already done in DSpace-CRIS. Moreover, additional technical improvements will be introduced to streamline the adoption and set the basis for future extensions of the services.

description: DSpace-CRIS is the first open source CRIS/RIMS platform in the world. In 2022 the project will reach is 10th anniversary since the first open-source release of the version 1.8.2 alfa took place in November 2012. Technically it is a fork of the DSpace platform, but the two communities have always walked together with the aim of bringing all the general purposes features of DSpace-CRIS to the main community. With version 7 and, especially, with the introduction of configurable entities in DSpace, the gap between these two "cousin" projects has been drastically reduced. However, thanks to the DSpace-CRIS community's increased experience in dealing with very complex use cases that have only recently found their way into “simple” DSpace, there are still many areas where DSpace-CRIS provides more advanced and still unique functionalities. The presentation will summarize unique features and characteristics of DSpace-CRIS over DSpace in 7 minutes.
PrE(P)Conception: creating and implementing a smartphone application for serodiscordant couples to support an HIV-free future
Creators: name: Wahler, Jessica
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2020

description: Purpose of Project: There is no smartphone application for People Living with HIV (PLWH) during the preconception period to improve outcomes and reduce perinatal transmission. Beta-testing the Pre(P)Conception application is the first step in development of a smartphone application to improve self-management and improve outcomes for PLWH in the preconception period. Methodology: The researcher created a bare bones structure of the application called a wireframe used for beta-testing applications prior to development. This wireframe consisted of features suggested to improve outcomes for PLWH and people in the preconception period such as push notifications, medication log, calendar, and patient portal. The Health Information Technology Usability Evaluation Scale (Health-ITUES) was administered to participants (n=13) and responses determined the perceived usefulness and ease of use of the Pre(P)Conception application. Results: Single (92%) African American (100%) females (77%), ages of 31-49 (54%) were the majority of the sample. The mean score on the Health-ITUES was 4.42, suggesting that participants would likely use the application after development and found the application useful and easy to use during preconception. Participants suggested improvements to the Pre(P)Conception application including a more colorful interface and passcode protection. Participants liked the guidelines link that are suggested to improve self-management through patient self-education. Implications for Practice: The PrE(P)Conception application has an economic benefit to patients and the healthcare system. Alternatives include costly reproductive interventions out of pocket to the patient or possible transmission to newborn costing approximately $418,000 to the healthcare system throughout the lifetime. PrE(P)Conception can be used to achieve the 90-90-90 WHO initiative to end the HIV epidemic. The patient portal can be used by providers to access patient updates and questions remotely prior to visits and improve practice.
Bringing IIIF to the DSpace community

description: Starting with version 7.1, DSpace, provides basic support for IIIF out of box. This result was achieved thanks to the joint work of Willamette University and 4Science. Now the DSpace 7 IIIF support allows institutions to upload images in DSpace, getting automatically a IIIF manifest for the item, based on item and bitstream (images) level metadata; in this way the TOC can be easily managed. Ideally, any IIIF compliant image server can be used, although instructions and full configuration examples are provided for Cantaloupe. Experimental support for the IIIF Search API is also available and it is expected to be refined in future releases. Implementing IIIF is a fundamental achievement in DSpace history, since it is going to promote its use in contexts such those related to digital cultural heritage management, who were hitherto reluctant to use this Digital Asset Management System, not least because of the lack of tools for digital images management, navigation and sharing. The presentation will introduce the available features, the architecture, the tools and strategies that can help institutions to deal with large collections using bulk imports.
