description: Recently, there has been suggestions that the apparent accelerated expansion of the universe is due not to a cosmological constant, but rather to inhomogeneities in the distribution of matter. In this work, we investigate a specific class of inhomogeneous models that can be solved analytically, namely the dust-dominated Lemaitre-Tolman-Bondi universe models. We show that they do not permit accelerated cosmic expansion.

The esw/fli fusion protein drives metabolic misregulation in Ewing Sarcoma
Creators: name: Tanner, Jason Michael
Publisher: name: University of Utah

Subjects: Biochemistry

description: Ewing sarcoma is a malignant disease of young people that arises most frequently in bones of the femur and pelvis. The disease most often afflicts adolescents, creating physical, emotional and developmental challenges during an individual's most formative years. Mainstays of therapy include surgery and chemotherapy, meaning that survival may come at very high costs - amputation and lifelong disability. Those whose suffer metastasis or relapse must confront a poor prognosis. This is due in part to a lack of effective therapeutic options capable of destroying cancer at the cellular and molecular levels. To this end, molecular research continues to pursue greater understanding of the underlying biology of these tumors. The principal genetic lesion in Ewing sarcoma is a translocation that fuses chromosomes 11 and 22, giving rise to an oncogenic fusion protein known as EWS/FLI. EWS/FLI causes massive transcriptional misregulation, generating a gene expression program that transforms cells into cancer. Studies of transcriptional consequences of EWS/FLI misregulation have identified numerous genes that are necessary - but not sufficient - for tumorigenesis of Ewing sarcoma. These efforts have produced several candidates for molecular therapies for this malignancy, but no new therapies have yet reached the clinic. Research continues this pursuit, and hope persists. The work presented in this thesis is some of the first efforts to investigate the metabolic underpinnings of Ewing sarcoma. Specifically, these data provide preliminary insights into the effects that EWS/FLI has on misregulating metabolism, generating a program of biosynthesis that promotes and/or contributes to oncogenesis in these tumors. Numerous metabolic pathways are altered upon silencing of EWS/FLI, suggesting that EWS/FLI drives expression changes of key enzymes involved in metabolic processes. These data appear to indicate that generating a pro-oncogenic metabolic program is a key part of how EWS/FLI drives oncogenesis. Due to the fact that metabolic enzymes are generally amenable to pharmacological modulation, these findings offer new hope to the pursuit of a molecular therapy for Ewing sarcoma.

description: In recent years, a number of models that learn the relations between vision and language from large datasets have been released. These models perform a variety of tasks, such as answering questions about images, retrieving sentences that best correspond to images, and finding regions in images that correspond to phrases. Although there are some examples, the connection between these pre-trained vision-language models and robotics is still weak. If they are directly connected to robot motions, they lose their versatility due to the embodiment of the robot and the difficulty of data collection, and become inapplicable to a wide range of bodies and situations. Therefore, in this study, we categorize and summarize the methods to utilize the pre-trained vision-language models flexibly and easily in a way that the robot can understand, without directly connecting them to robot motions. We discuss how to use these models for robot motion selection and motion planning without re-training the models. We consider five types of methods to extract information understandable for robots, and show the results of state recognition, object recognition, affordance recognition, relation recognition, and anomaly detection based on the combination of these five methods. We expect that this study will add flexibility and ease-of-use, as well as new applications, to the recognition behavior of existing robots.

description: In social networks, different users may have different privacy preferences and there are many users with public identities. Most work on differentially private social network data publication neglects this fact. We aim to release the number of public users that a private user connects to within n hops, called n-range Connection fingerprints(CFPs), under user-level personalized privacy preferences. We proposed two schemes, Distance-based exponential budget absorption (DEBA) and Distance-based uniformly budget absorption using Ladder function (DUBA-LF), for privacy-preserving publication of the CFPs based on Personalized differential privacy(PDP), and we conducted a theoretical analysis of the privacy guarantees provided within the proposed schemes. The implementation showed that the proposed schemes are superior in publication errors on real datasets.

 Information on power grids is confidential and thus real data is often inaccessible. This necessitates the use of synthetic power grid models in research. So far the models used, for example, in machine learning had to be very simple and homogeneous to produce large ensembles of robust grids. We present a modular framework to generate synthetic power grids that considers the heterogeneity of real power grid dynamics but remains simple and tractable. This enables the generation of large sets of synthetic grids for a wide range of applications. We also include the major drivers of fluctuations on short-time scales. The synthetic grids generated are robust and show good synchronization under all evaluated scenarios, as should be expected for realistic power grids. This opens the door to future research that studies grids under severe stress due to extreme events which could lead to destabilization and black-outs. A software package that includes an efficient Julia implementation of the framework is released as a companion to the paper.

description: We have measured the ratio $R_ϕ=BR(ϕ\to η^{\prime} γ)/BR(ϕ\to ηγ)$ by looking for the radiative decays $ϕ\to η^{\prime} γ$ and $ϕ\to ηγ$ in the final states $π^+π^-$ 7 $γ$'s and 7 $γ$'s respectively, in a sample of $\sim 1.3\cdot 10^{9}$ $ϕ$ mesons produced at the Frascati $ϕ$-factory. We obtain $R_ϕ=(4.77\pm0.09_{stat}\pm0.19_{sys})\cdot 10^{-3}$ from which we derive $BR(ϕ\to η^{\prime} γ)=(6.20\pm0.11_{stat}\pm0.25_{sys})\cdot 10^{-5}$. In the hypothesis of no gluonium content we extract the pseudoscalar mixing angle in the quark-flavor basis $ϕ_P=(41.4\pm0.3_{stat}\pm0.7_{sys}\pm0.6_{th})^{\circ}$. Combining the value of $R_ϕ$ with other constraints, we estimate the gluonium fractional content of $η^{\prime}$ meson as $Z^2 = 0.14\pm0.04$ and the mixing angle $ϕ_P = (39.7\pm0.7)^{\circ}$.

description: In this work, we propose an intrinsic mechanism to understand the even-odd effect, namely the opposite signs of the anomalous Hall resistance and the different shapes of hysteresis loops for even and odd septuple layers (SLs), of MBE-grown MnBi2Te4 thin films with electron doping. In particular, we show that the non-zero hysteresis loops in the anomalous Hall and magnetic circular dichroism measurements for even-SLs MnBi2Te4 films are originated from two different anti-ferromagnetic (AFM) states with opposite magnetoelectric coefficients that give rise to different energies of zeroth Landau levels of the surface states in this model. The complex form of the anomalous Hall hysteresis loop in even-SLs MnBi2Te4 films can be understood from two magnetic transitions, a transition from one AFM state to the other AFM state followed by a second transition to the ferromagnetic state. Our model also provides a microscopic understanding of the electrical switching between two AFM states via the axion electrodynamics in even-SL MnBi2Te4 films. We further study orbital magnetization and magnetoelectric coefficient in MnBi2Te4 films, and find an even-odd oscillation behavior of the magnetoelectric coefficient.

description: Treatment adherence remains a major challenge in tuberculosis (TB) control. Mobile phone text messaging is a promising tool to support TB treatment adherence. The purpose of this study was to develop a text messaging intervention to promote TB treatment adherence, assess feasibility and acceptability, and to explore initial efficacy. A collaborative team of clinicians, administrators and patients in treatment developed the intervention. Content analysis, based on the Information-Motivation-Behavioral Skills (IMB) model, guided educational message selection. To identify considerations for a larger trial a socio-technical evaluation model adapted from Conford, and Barber and associates was applied. The intervention was implemented as a mixed-method, randomized controlled pilot-study at a public pulmonary-specialized hospital in Argentina. Patients newly diagnosed with TB who were18 or older, without drug resistance or HIV, and had access to a mobile phone were recruited. Participants were randomized to usual care plus either medication calendar (n=19) or text messaging intervention (n=18) for the first 2 months of treatment. Data were obtained through interviews, field notes, self-reported adherence, sputum microscopy, and treatment outcomes. Most potential participants had access to mobile phones and knew how to send a text, supporting feasibility of the intervention. The majority of the participants (60%) indicated not being adequately informed about disease or treatment. Participants identified themes of feeling cared for, responsible for their treatment and valued the option to ask questions and receive quick answers. Texting group participants reported adherence 77% of the days (SD 23.5, range 22-100), whereas only 53% in the control group returned calendars. Sputum conversion and treatment outcomes were similar in both groups. Considerations for conducting a larger trial included reducing cost, improving the automated features, and strengthening capacity to return patients to treatment. A collaborative approach and application of the IMB model to guide development was supported. Overall the texting intervention was well accepted and feasible, daily reporting was superior, and adherence was monitored in real time. Although there was not clear evidence that the texting intervention was more efficacious, feasibility and acceptability results suggest that there is value in assessing this interactive intervention in a larger-scale study.

description: The $T$-matrix, often obtained with Waterman's extended boundary condition method (EBCM), is a widely-used tool for fast calculations of electromagnetic scattering by particles. Here we investigate the quasistatic or long-wavelength limit of this approach, where it reduces to an electrostatics problem. We first present a fully electrostatic version of the EBCM/T-matrix method (dubbed ES-EBCM). Explicit expressions are then given to quantitatively express the long-wavelength limit of the EBCM matrix elements in terms of those of the ES-EBCM formalism. From this connection we deduce a number of symmetry properties of the ES-EBCM matrices. We then investigate the matrix elements of the ES-EBCM formalism in the special case of prolate spheroids. Using the general electrostatic solution in spheroidal coordinates, we derive fully analytic expressions (in the form of finite sums) for all matrix elements. Those can be used for example for studies of the convergence of the $T$-matrix formalism. We illustrate this by discussing the validity of the Rayleigh hypothesis, where analytical expressions highlight clearly the link with analytical continuation of series.

description: While it is well accepted that modeling of vegetation in urban areas is important for simulating urban microclimate, most well-known urban models have neglected vegetation, particularly explicit modeling of vegetation elements such as trees. In this study, we quantitatively evaluate mean wind fields generated using the building-resolving Quick Urban Industrial Complex wind model (QUIC-URB) for an urban domain containing a high vegetation fraction, including a large number of trees. A new vegetation model that has both theoretical and empirical features is developed. The performance of this new vegetation model is compared with published wind-tunnel data available in literature and the results show less than 15% relative deviations. Further evaluation is done using mean wind data from a suite of eleven low-cost weather stations that were distributed throughout the University of Utah campus during a 2-year period, from 2015 to 2017. Results are presented for simulations with and without vegetation using different configurations of QUIC's standard canopy vegetation model as well as the newly developed isolated tree model. Preliminary modeling results indicate underestimation of wind speeds in the upwind cavity and building wake zones. However, the outcomes of the newly developed model are in a good agreement with the observed experimental trends in wide open areas and street-canyon regions.

description: Tootling is a peer-mediated interdependent group contingent positive behavioral intervention that research has proven to be effective in reducing disruptive behavior and increasing prosocial behavior. The current research wanted to examine if the tootling intervention could be adapted for a preschool setting while still producing positive outcomes on behavior. Additionally, the current research examined whether consultation with the preschool teachers regarding the implementation of the tootling intervention could be effectively provided through videoconferencing and other technology. Ninety-five 4- and 5-year-old children across four classrooms located in four separate cities in the Midwest were taught how to ignore their peers' inappropriate behavior and tootle the appropriate prosocial behavior. A multiple baseline design across classrooms indicated the tootling intervention increased the preschoolers' prosocial behavior, decreased tattling behavior, decreased disruptive behavior at circle time in three of the four classrooms and increased class wide on-task behavior at circle time in two of the four classrooms. The participants viewed the use of technology within the study to provide teacher consultation regarding the tootling intervention positively. Technology also provided efficiency in data collection through the study. This research provides continued support for the benefits of the tootling intervention and implications from the findings for school-based practitioners are discussed. The research study's limitations and next steps for future research are reviewed.

description: Optically levitated microspheres are an excellent candidate for force and acceleration sensing. Here, we propose an acceleration sensing protocol based on an optically levitated microsphere array (MSA). The system consists of an $N$-microsphere array levitated in a driven optical cavity via holographic optical tweezers. By positioning the microspheres suitably relative to the cavity, only one of the collective modes of the MSA is coupled to the cavity mode. The optomechanical interaction encodes the information of acceleration acting on the MSA onto the intracavity photons, which can then be detected directly at the output of the cavity. The optically levitated MSA forms an effective large mass-distributed particle, which not only circumvents the problem of levitating a large mass microsphere but also results in a significant improvement of sensitivity. Compared with the traditional single-microsphere measurement scheme, our method presents an improvement in sensitivity by a factor of $\sqrt{N}$.

description: The mechanical force from light -- radiation pressure -- provides an intrinsic nonlinear interaction. Consequently, optomechanical systems near their steady state, such as the canonical optical spring, can display non-analytic behavior as a function of external parameters. This non-analyticity, a key feature of thermodynamic phase transitions, suggests that there could be an effective thermodynamic description of optomechanical systems. Here we explicitly define the thermodynamic limit for optomechanical systems and derive a set of sufficient constraints on the system parameters as the mechanical system grows large. As an example, we show how these constraints can be satisfied in a system with $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry and derive a free energy, allowing us to characterize this as an equilibrium phase transition.

Evlaution of Computerized Notifications for Laboratory Monitoring of Postliver Transplant Immunosupressive Care
Creators: name: Jacobs, Jason Richard
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2019

description: Following liver transplantation, patients require lifelong immunosuppressive care and monitoring to prevent organ rejection, drug toxicity, and death. Traditionally, transplant centers use paper-based processes that are not scalable and can lead to inefficiencies and deficiencies in information management. Clinical decision support (CDS) tools may help to overcome information management challenges, and a system-agnostic approach may help to disseminate these tools nationwide. We sought to inform the development of new transplant information systems by analyzing existing information systems. To meet this overall objective, we administered a survey and found that all liver transplant programs used manual, paper-based processes and nearly all used electronic health record (EHR) systems. Programs also had immunosuppression guidelines with similar logic patterns. Then we analyzed long-term use of a computerized notification system at one transplant center and found that a system designed specifically for the posttransplant workflow can meet long-term information management needs. Next, we assessed the clinical outcomes associated with computerized notifications for laboratory monitoring of immunosuppressive care and found that a system designed specifically for the posttransplant workflow was associated with improved clinical outcomes. Following this, we described workflow processes at two transplant centers and found that a transplant-specific notification system was associated with changes in workflow process iv measures and the satisfaction of performing laboratory monitoring tasks compared to a general EHR notification system. Finally, we administered a questionnaire to coordinators using a transplant-specific notification system and identified the usage of specific data elements in computerized notifications for posttransplant laboratory monitoring. Our findings show that near universal use of EHRs provides an infrastructure for implementing CDS tools, and logic patterns for posttransplant laboratory monitoring can be generalized to other U.S. transplant centers. Transplant-specific computerized notifications may be part of a system of processes that improve the scalability, quality, and satisfaction of patient management by postliver transplant coordinators. However, these systems must be flexible enough to accommodate new immunosuppressants and changing or additional parameters used in computerized logic as clinical practice or needs of the patient population evolve. Proactive notifications sent directly to patients regarding upcoming due dates via patient portals may also improve patient outcomes.
Evaluating the Effects of Snowstorm Frequency and Depth on Skier Behavior in Big Cottonwood Canyon, Utah

description: Vehicular traffic to the resorts in Big Cottonwood Canyon, Utah during the winter season can be heavy on weekends and mornings just after or during a storm event as fresh snow attracts a large skier population. Traffic congestion can occur given that the canyon road is one lane in each direction, which can have a considerable impact on travel time and associated delays. Despite this condition, no known studies have been conducted to examine relationships between traffic congestion and external environmental factors such as snowstorm depth, time since the previous storm, and time of the winter season. The goal of this research is to articulate some of these relationships using Big Cottonwood Canyon, Utah as a case study. Daily traffic patterns provided by the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) are compared to each other in order to identify similarities among them. Characteristics of similar daily traffic patterns such as day of week, base depth, days since prior storm event, and storm depth are explored for potential relationships and to identify common variables between days with like vehicle counts. Daily traffic flows are then analyzed using a bootstrapping method to test the research hypothesis that morning traffic to resorts in Big Cottonwood Canyon significantly increases after a snow event.
Evaluation of Reservoir Operation Alterations to Improve Water Supply, Hydropower Generation, and Flood Control Performance of Tarbela Dam

Subjects: Water resources management

description: Tarbela Dam is the largest in Pakistan, providing significant fractions of the country's irrigation supply, hydropower generation, and flood control. The operation of Tarbela Dam has been based on maximizing the release of water for irrigation supply. This single objective approach has provided benefits for Pakistan but has not maximized the potential of Tarbela Dam for targeting multiple objectives and considering multiple criteria. In this study, a model was created with the Water Evaluation and Planning (WEAP) System and used to explore the impact of altering the operations of Tarbela Dam in terms of reliability, resilience, and vulnerability (RRV) for the three objectives of irrigation supply, hydropower generation, and flood control. The reservoir performance for the altered operations was compared to the performance following historical operations for both historical and projected future climate and water demand conditions. Simulation results show that a new proposed operations strategy tested under historical climate and water demand conditions would increase RRV by 17%, 67%, and 7%, respectively, for the water supply objective and 34%, 346%, and 22%, respectively, for hydropower generation compared to the historical reservoir performance. The flood control reliability would increase by only 0.3%. For projected future conditions, the proposed operations strategy would increase RRV by 7%, 219%, and 11%, respectively, for water supply and 19%, 136%, and 13% for hydropower generation. For flood control, the reliability would increase by only 2%, while resilience and vulnerability would decrease by 33% and 39%, respectively. The study confirms the potential to improve the ability to provide more reliable and resilient irrigation supply and hydropower generation, although not to reduce vulnerability. The inability to improve flood control performance by altering operations confirms previous studies documenting the need for increased storage capacity. The use of multiple objectives and the RRV criteria is recommended as an approach to guide Tarbela Dam operations.

description: The catecholamines: dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine, are naturally occurring amines that function as hormones and neurotransmitters. Excess concentrations of catecholamines have been observed in patients with rare neuroendocrine tumors and are associated with chronic hypertension, stroke, myocardial infarction, and cardiovascular disease. These potential consequences of high catecholamine concentrations emphasize the need for a rapid and accurate analytical measurement method. Catecholamines are often measured using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with electrochemical detection; however, the liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) technique is attractive due to its selectivity and throughput. Derivatization of catecholamines prior to LC-MS/MS analysis of plasma specimens may be used to enhance assay sensitivity. The goal of this study was to evaluate reductive amination derivatization of catecholamines using straight-chain and branched-chain aldehydes as a means to improve the sensitivity of the assay. Derivatization was performed on each catecholamine in triplicate using a series of straight-chain and branched-chain aldehydes. Aqueous catecholamine standards were reacted with an aldehyde in the presence of a buffer (ammonium acetate) and reducing agent (sodium cyanoborohydride) at 37 °C for 30 minutes. Samples were quenched with formic acid at room temperature and injected onto an LC-MS/MS system for analysis. Catecholamine derivatives were identified by individual retention times and mass transitions. Peak area counts were determined for three mass transitions for each derivative. The six-carbon straight-chain aldehyde, hexanal, and the branched-chain aldehyde, hydrocinnamaldehyde, proved to be the most effective derivatizing agents for the catecholamines in plasma assay. A derivatization protocol using hydrocinnamaldehyde was optimized for aldehyde and reducing agent concentrations, and incubation time and temperature. Derivatization with hydrocinnamaldehyde produced single alkylated products for all three catecholamines. Comparison of the derivatization agents showed higher peak area counts for norepinephrine and epinephrine derivatized with hydrocinnamaldehyde; hexanal provided greater sensitivity for dopamine. A method application experiment on patient samples using hydrocinnamaldehyde demonstrated its significant effect on assay sensitivity and supports use in a clinical setting. However, sensitivity for dopamine was inadequate and overall accuracy and precision were unsatisfactory. Further optimization of the derivatization protocol using hydrocinnamaldehyde is required to meet acceptable analytical criteria for this assay.

description: The information resultant from three years of excavation at the Evans Mound (42In40) are used to derive a prehistoric subsistence model for southwestern Utah. The model is based on paleobotanical, palynclogical,. and settlement data, and augmented by limited recourse to ethnographic analogy. The implications of the model suggest possible relationships between the Parowan Fremont farming groups, the documented influx of the Numic speaking hunter-gatherers, and the eventual failure of aboriginal farming in southwestern Utah. These relationships may be explained by either' of two hypotheses: (1) gradual failure of the Fremont subsistence system due to environmental change; or, (2) competition ,with Numic groups for critical subsistence resources.

description: We analyse disc heating and radial migration in N-body models of growing disc galaxies with thick and thin discs. Similar to thin-disc-only models, galaxies with appropriate non-axisymmetric structures reproduce observational constraints on radial disc heating in and migration to the Solar Neighbourhood (Snhd). The presence of thick discs can suppress non-axisymmetries and thus higher baryonic-to-dark matter fractions are required than in models that only have a thin disc. Models that are baryon-dominated to roughly the Solar radius R_0 are favoured, in agreement with data for the Milky Way. For inside-out growing discs, today's thick-disc stars at R_0 are dominated by outwards migrators. Whether outwards migrators are vertically hotter than non-migrators depends on the radial gradient of the thick disc vertical velocity dispersion. There is an effective upper boundary in angular momentum that thick disc stars born in the centre of a galaxy can reach by migration, which explains the fading of the high-alpha sequence outside R_0. Our models compare well to Snhd kinematics from RAVE-TGAS. For such comparisons it is important to take into account the azimuthal variation of kinematics at R ~ R_0 and biases from survey selection functions. The vertical heating of thin disc stars by giant molecular clouds is only mildly affected by the presence of thick discs. Our models predict higher vertical velocity dispersions for the oldest stars than found in the Snhd age-velocity dispersion relation, possibly because of measurement uncertainties or an underestimation of the number of old cold stars in our models.

description: The population of black holes inferred from the detection of gravitational waves by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration has revealed interesting features in the properties of black holes in the Universe. We analyze the GWTC-3 dataset assuming the detected black holes in each event had an either astrophysical or primordial origin. In particular, we consider astrophysical black holes described by the fiducial \textsc{Power Law + Peak} distribution and primordial black holes whose mass function obeys a broken power law. These primordial black holes can be generated by vacuum bubbles that nucleate during inflation. We find that astrophysical black holes dominate the events with mass less than $\sim 30M_\odot$, whereas primordial black holes are responsible for the massive end, and also for the peak at $\sim 30M_\odot$ in the mass distribution. More than half of the observed events could come from primordial black hole mergers. We also discuss the implications on the primordial black hole formation mechanism and the underlying inflationary model.
