description: Galaxies fall into two clearly distinct types: `blue-sequence' galaxies that are rapidly forming young stars, and `red-sequence' galaxies in which star formation has almost completely ceased. Most galaxies more massive than $3\times10^{10} M_\odot$ follow the red-sequence while less massive central galaxies lie on the blue sequence. We show that these sequences are created by a competition between star formation-driven outflows and gas accretion on to the supermassive black hole at the galaxy's center. We develop a simple analytic model for this interaction. In galaxies less massive than $3\times10^{10} M_\odot$, young stars and supernovae drive a high entropy outflow that is more buoyant that any diffuse corona. The outflow balances the rate of gas inflow, preventing high gas densities building up in the central regions. More massive galaxies, however, are surrounded by a hot corona. We argue that above a halo mass of $\sim 10^{12} M_\odot$, the supernova-driven outflow is no longer buoyant and star formation is unable to prevent the build up of gas in the central regions. This triggers a strongly non-linear response from the black hole. Its accretion rate rises rapidly, heating the galaxy's corona, disrupting the incoming supply of cool gas and starving the galaxy of the fuel for star formation. The host galaxy makes a transition to the red sequence, and further growth predominantly occurs through galaxy mergers. We show that the analytic model provides a good description of galaxy evolution in the EAGLE hydrodynamic simulations, and demonstrate that, so long as star formation-driven outflows are present, the transition mass scale is almost independent of subgrid parameter choice. The transition mass disappears entirely, however, if star formation driven outflows are absent.

description: As a consequence of global warming and climate change, the risk and extent of wildfires have been increasing in many areas worldwide. Warmer temperatures and drier conditions can cause quickly spreading fires and make them harder to control; therefore, early detection and accurate locating of active fires are crucial in environmental monitoring. Using satellite imagery to monitor and detect active fires has been critical for managing forests and public land. Many traditional statistical-based methods and more recent deep-learning techniques have been proposed for active fire detection. In this study, we propose a novel approach called Operational U-Nets for the improved early detection of active fires. The proposed approach utilizes Self-Organized Operational Neural Network (Self-ONN) layers in a compact U-Net architecture. The preliminary experimental results demonstrate that Operational U-Nets not only achieve superior detection performance but can also significantly reduce computational complexity.

description: Background: Young people compromise almost half of the world's population, which is nearly 85% for developing countries. Since youth is an intermediate time that makes a pavement to adulthood and is important for laying the foundation of good health in later time, effective intervention of sexual and reproductive health service of the youth protects both the old age and the coming generation. But, there is lack of resources and trained man power for comprehensive sexual and reproductive health services. Objective: to assess the magnitude of reproductive health service utilisation among secondary school adolescents in Addis Ababa. Methods: School-based quantitative cross sectional study was carried out among age 15-19 years age old selected secondary schools adolescents in Addis Ababa. Using the random sampling a total of 844 school adolescents (aged 15-19 years) were proportionally allocated and interviewed from 10 high schools. A pretested structured questionnaire was employed to obtain the necessary information after getting both written and verbal permission from the concerned bodies. The collected data was interred in to Epidata and analyzed using SPSS version 20 statistical packages and the degree of association between dependent and independent variables were assessed using bivariate and multivariate analysis. Result:-From the total 844 participants assessed on utilization of reproductive health services 305(36.1%) respondents utilize at least one from the five main RH service options. The odds of utilization among respondents who said RH service available in their school was 1.682(1.232, 2.295) times higher than those who have no RH service in their school. The odds of utilization among respondents who have Knowledge on type of reproductive health services types were 2.934(1.906, 4.515) times higher than those who do not have knowledge on type of RH service types. Conclusions: - Generally this study disclosed that RH service utilization among High school adolescent's in Addis Ababa was 36.1%. Knowledge about RH facilities that provide services and availability of services of choice by adolescents were significant predictors of RH utilization. Recommendations:- Conducting promotion about the services that are given in RH facility is mandatory to increase access by high school students. Availing RH facilities by type of services that adolescents wanted will increase access to utilization.

description: Die vorliegende Masterarbeit beinhaltet eine vergleichende Fallstudie zum Thema gelingende Integration von Kindern mit Asperger-Syndrom an der Regelschule im Kanton Aargau. Ausgehend von der Fragestellung, welche Rahmenbedingen und Faktoren die schulische Integration von Kindern mit Asperger-Syndrom in die Regelschule begünstigen, wurden problemzentrierte Leitfadeninterviews mit Lehrpersonen, Heilpädagoginnen / Heilpädagogen, Assistenzpersonen und Eltern durchgeführt. Ziel der qualitativen Auswertung war, die Sichtweisen der Befragten miteinander zu vergleichen und sowohl die fördernden als auch hemmenden Faktoren zu erheben. Dabei wurde festgestellt, dass eine positive Haltung gegenüber der Integration eine Grundvoraussetzung ist. Diese muss von einer gesamten Schule getragen werden. Eine enge Zusammenarbeit zwischen den betroffenen Lehrkräften und dem Elternhaus begünstigen den Verlauf einer Integration. Auf der Ebene des Unterrichts sind klare Strukturen nötig, damit sich Kinder mit einem Asperger-Syndrom im Schulalltag zurechtfinden. Die Ressourcen des Kantons für eine zusätzliche Betreuung und Unterstützung müssen sinnvoll genutzt und an die Bedürfnisse des Kindes angepasst werden.

description: In this work we consider the dynamics of a chain of many coupled kicked rotors with dissipation. We map a rich phase diagram with many dynamical regimes. We focus mainly on a regime where the system shows period doubling, and forms patterns that are persistent and depend on the stroboscopic time with period double than that of the driving: The system shows a form of spatiotemporal ordering analogous to quantum Floquet time crystals. Spatiotemporally ordered patterns can be understood by means of a linear-stability analysis that predicts an instability region that contains the spatiotemporally ordered regime. The boundary of the instability region coincides with the lower boundary of the spatiotemporally ordered regime, and the most unstable mode has length scale double than the lattice spacing, a feature that we observe in the spatiotemporally ordered patterns: Period doubling occurs both in time and space. We propose an implementation of this model in an array of SQUID Josephson junctions with a pulsed time-periodic flux.

description: A decoupled scheme based on the Hermite expansion to construct lattice Boltzmann models for the compressible Navier-Stokes equations with arbitrary specific heat ratio is proposed. The local equilibrium distribution function including the rotational velocity of particle is decoupled into two parts, i.e. the local equilibrium distribution function of the translational velocity of particle and that of the rotational velocity of particle. From these two local equilibrium functions, two lattice Boltzmann models are derived via the Hermite expansion, namely one is in relation to the translational velocity and the other is connected with the rotational velocity. Accordingly, the distribution function is also decoupled. After this, the evolution equation is decoupled into the evolution equation of the translational velocity and that of the rotational velocity. The two evolution equations evolve separately. The lattice Boltzmann models used in the scheme proposed by this work are constructed via the Hermite expansion, so it is easy to construct new schemes of higher-order accuracy. To validate the proposed scheme, a shock tube simulation is performed. The numerical results agree with the analytical solutions very well.

description: Quantum state estimation (or state tomography) is an indispensable task in quantum information processing. Because full state tomography that determines all elements of the density matrix is computationally demanding, one usually takes the strategy of assuming a certain model of quantum states and identifying the model parameters. However, it is difficult to make a valid assumption given little prior knowledge on a quantum state of interest, and thus we need a reasonable model selection method for quantum state estimation. Actually, in the classical statistical estimation theory, several types of information criteria have been established and widely used in practice for appropriately choosing a classical statistical model. In this study, we propose quantum information criteria for evaluating the quality of the estimated quantum state in terms of the quantum relative entropy, which is a natural quantum analogue of the classical information criterion defined in terms of Kullback-Leibler divergence. In particular, we derive two quantum information criteria depending on the type of estimator for the quantum relative entropy; one uses the log-likelihood and the other uses the classical shadow. The general role of information criteria is to predict the performance of an estimated model for unseen data, although it is a function of only sampled data; this generalization capability of the proposed quantum information criteria is evaluated in numerical simulations.

description: Frequency and transmission spectrum of two-dimensional array of metallic rods is investigated numerically. Based on the recent analysis of the band structure of two-dimensional photonic crystal with dielectric rods [P. Markoš, Phys. Rev. A 92 043814 (2015)] we identify two types of bands in the frequency spectrum: Bragg (P) bands resulting from a periodicity and Fano (F) bands which arise from Fano resonances associated with each of the cylinders within the periodic structure. It is shown that the existence of Fano band in a certain frequency range is manifested by a Fano resonance in the transmittance. In particular, we re-examine the symmetry properties of the H- polarized band structure in the frequency range where the spectrum consists of the localized modes associated with the single scatterer resonances and we explore process of formation of Fano bands by identifying individual terms in the expansion of the LCAO states. We demonstrate how the interplay between the two scattering mechanisms affects properties of the resulting band structure when the radius of cylinders is increased. We show that a different character of both kinds of bands is reflected in the spatial distribution of the magnetic field which displays patterns corresponding to the corresponding irreducible symmetry representations.

description: Introduction: Measles is an acute, highly contagious viral disease caused by measles virus the risk factors for measles virus infection includes: infants who loss passive antibody before the age of routine immunization, children with vitamin A deficiency, immunodeficiency and children who travel to areas were measles endemic or contact with travels to endemic area. In 2016, there were 89,780 measles death globally. Measles is still common in many developing countries. Particularly in parts of Africa and ASIA estimated 7 million people were affected by measles in 2016. The general objective of this study was to confirm and assess factors associated with measles outbreak and to implement early Measles control intervention in Kolfe Keranyo sub city, Addis Ababa region, 2017 Methods: Applied unmatched case control study with a case to control ratio of 1:2, to identify the possible risk factors of the outbreak. A face to face interview was conducted using structured questionnaire with adults, and care takers for children. Epi- info used to analyses the data. Result: A total of 16 measles cases with no death were reported from 5/1/17 to 3/3/2017. Age specific attack rate was higher in age group of 0-4. The age range of the case was from 9 months to 28 years with median age 5 years. 12% of the cases were not vaccinated. Active case searching and health education was conducted during the outbreak. Based on the case-control finding: history of travelling prior to two weeks of onset were risk factor for developing the diseases and statistically significant with an OR of 5.492[95%CI= 1.283-23.507, P=0.022]. Conclusion and Recommendation: An outbreak of measles cases occurred in Kolfe keranyo sub city affecting primarily the age group under 5 years. History of travelling prior to two weeks of onset likely contributed to the outbreak. Therefore, the health extension worker should enhance the awareness of the community towards measles infection.

description: Room temperature Ionic liquids (RTIL) received considerable attention as a new class of materials with fundamental importance for energy storage \cite{Armand2009, Uesugi2013} and active lubrication \cite{Palacio2010, Dold2015, Smith2013a}. Their unique properties result from the competition of strong electrostatic interactions with properly designed molecular structure to avoid crystalization at room temperature. They are however unsual liquids, which challenge fundamentally the classical frameworks of electrolytes. In particular their behavior at electrified interfaces remains elusive with very rich and exotic responses relevant to their electrochemical activity \cite{Kornyshev2014,Merlet2012,Perkin2013,Atkin2009,Rotenberg2015,Endres2012,Bovio2009a,Bovio2009,Yokota2010}. In this work, we use quartz tuning fork based AFM nanorheological measurements to explore the properties of RTIL in nanometric confinement. We unveil a dramatic change of the RTIL towards a solid-like phase below a threshold thickness, pointing to a capillary freezing in confinement. This threshold thickness is found to be intimately related to the metallic nature of the confining materials, with more metallic surfaces facilitating capillary freezing. This behavior is interpreted theoretically in terms of the shift of the freezing transition, taking into account the influence of the electronic screening on RTIL wetting of the confining surfaces, as described by the simple Thomas-Fermi approach. Our findings provides fresh views on the properties of confined RTIL with important implications for their statics and dynamics inside nanoporous metallic structures. This also suggests applications to tune nanoscale lubrication with the phase-changing RTIL, by varying the nature as well as the patterning of the subtrate, and the application of active polarisation.

description: The paper reports on a new plasma startup scenario in the Gas Dynamic Trap (GDT) magnetic mirror device. The primary 5 MW neutral beam injection (NBI) plasma heating system fires into a sufficiently dense plasma target ("seed plasma"), which is commonly supplied by an arc plasma generator. In the reported experiments, a different approach to seed plasma generation is explored. One of the channels of the electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) heating system is used to ionize the neutral gas and build up the density of plasma to a level suitable for NBI capture. After a short transition (about 1 ms) the discharge becomes essentially similar to a standard one initiated by the plasma gun. The paper presents the discharge scenario and experimental data on the seed plasma evolution during ECR heating, along with the dependencies on incident microwave power, magnetic configuration and pressure of a neutral gas. The characteristics of consequent high-power NBI discharge are studied and differences to the conventional scenario are discussed. A theoretical model describing the ECR breakdown and the seed plasma accumulation in a large scale mirror trap is developed on the basis of the GDT experiment.

description: In der mathematikdidaktischen Forschungsgemeinschaft ist man sich fast immer einig: Anwendungen, Modellieren und Realitätsbezüge sind wichtig und sollen in den Unterricht integriert werden. Allerdings zeigen viele Studien, dass der Anteil des Modellierens im Alltagsunterricht eher gering ist (z. B. Brunner, et al., 2006). Von Lehrern wird dabei häufig u.a. die Komplexität von Modellierungsaufgaben und die mangelnde Planbarkeit der Unterrichtsstunde beim Einsatz von Modellierungsaufgaben angeführt (Schmidt, 2010). Gerade Modellierungsaufgaben weisen scheinbar einige Unwägbarkeiten auf wie z.B. ihr vergleichbar großer Lösungsraum, d.h. dem zur Verfügung stehen mehrerer Lösungswege. Damit verbunden ist das Problem, die Schwierigkeit der Modellierungsaufgabe einzuschätzen. Im Folgenden wird ein Modell vorgestellt, das auf Denkstrukturen von Lösungsansätzen basiert, um den Schwierigkeitsgrad einer Modellierungsaufgabe einschätzen zu können. In einer Studie mit 600 Schülerinnen und Schülern der 9. gymnasialen Jahrgangsstufe soll der theoretisch ermittelte Schwierigkeitsgrad auf Validität überprüft werden.

description: Recently, the CMS Collaboration performed a search on a new resonance decaying to $e^\pmμ^\mp$ in the mass range of 110 GeV to 160 GeV. The search also hints a possible excess at 146 GeV with a $3.8σ~(2.8σ)$ of local (global) significance. Motivated by that, we try to interpret the results in the context of the type-III two-Higgs-doublet-model. We find that the excess is only moderately constrained by low-energy lepton-flavor-violation processes, in particular the $μ\to e γ$ decay. We also compare the CMS bounds across the entire search region against constraints of $μ\to eγ$ and $μ\to e$ conversion in nuclei. Our finding indicates that the collider bounds can be superior to those of low-energy processes for the scalar mass between $110 \text{ GeV}$ and $150 \text{ GeV}$, suggesting the importance of this mass range for future searches.

description: In most astrophysical situations, the radioactive decay of 56Ni to 56Co occurs via electron capture with a fixed half-life of 6.1 days. However, this decay rate is significantly slowed when the nuclei are fully ionized because K-shell electrons are unavailable for capture. In this paper, we explore the effect of these delayed decays on white dwarfs (WDs) that may survive Type Ia and Type Iax supernovae (SNe Ia and SNe Iax). The energy released by the delayed radioactive decays of 56Ni and 56Co drives a persistent wind from the surviving WD's surface that contributes to the late-time appearance of these SNe after emission from the bulk of the SN ejecta has faded. We use the stellar evolution code MESA to calculate the hydrodynamical evolution and resulting light curves of these winds. Our post-SN Ia models conflict with late-time observations of SN 2011fe, but uncertainties in our initial conditions prevent us from ruling out the existence of surviving WD donors. Much better agreement with observations is achieved with our post-SN Iax bound remnant models, providing evidence that these explosions are due to deflagrations in accreting WDs that fail to completely unbind the WDs. Future radiative transfer calculations and wind models utilizing explosion simulations for more accurate initial conditions will extend our study of radioactively-powered winds from post-SN surviving WDs and enable their use as powerful discriminants among the various SN Ia and SN Iax progenitor scenarios.

description: We evaluate performance of associative memory in a neural network by based on the singular value decomposition (SVD) of image data stored in the network. We consider the situation in which the original image and its highly coarse-grained one by SVD are stored in the network and the intermediate one is taken as an input. We find that the performance is characterized by the snapshot-entropy scaling inherent in the SVD: the network retrieves the original image when the entropy of the input image is larger than the critical value determined from the scaling. The result indicates efficiency of the SVD as a criterion of the performance and also indicates universality of the scaling for realistic problems beyond theoretical physics.

description: CONTEXT: The unparalleled characteristics of Gaia photometry make it an excellent choice to study stellar variability. AIMS: To measure the phot. dispersion in G+G_BP+G_RP of the 145 677 450 Gaia DR3 5-parameter sources with G <= 17 mag and G_BP-G_RP with -1.0 to 8.0 mag. To use that unbiased sample to analyze stellar variability in the Milky Way, LMC, and SMC. METHODS: We convert from magnitude uncertainties to the observed phot. dispersions, calculate the instrumental component as a function of apparent magnitude and color, and use it to transform the observed dispersions into the astrophysical ones. We give variability indices in the three bands for the whole sample. We use the subsample of Rimoldini et al. that includes light curves and variability types to calibrate our results and establish their limitations. RESULTS: We use information from the MW, LMC, and SMC CAMDs to discuss variability across the HRD. WDs and sdBs are more variable than MS or RC stars but their variability decreases for the former with age. The MS region in the Gaia CAMD has an s_G distribution peaks at low values (~1-2 mmag) and has a large tail dominated by EBs, RR Lyr stars, and YSOs. RC stars are characterized by little variability, with their s_G distribution peaking at 1 mmag or less. The stars in the PMS region are highly variable, with a power law distribution in s_G with slope 2.75 and a cutoff for values lower than 7 mmag. The luminous red stars region of the Gaia CAMD has the highest variability, with its extreme dominated by AGB stars and with a power law in s_G with a slope of ~2.2 that extends from there to a cutoff of 7 mmag. We show that our method can be used to search for LMC Cepheids. We analyze four stellar clusters with O stars and detect a strong difference in s_G between stars that are already in the MS and those that are still in the PMS. [ABRIDGED BUT NOT TOO FAR]

description: In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird der Frage nachgegangen, wie die Eltern hörbeeinträchtigter Kinder einzelne Teilaspekte der Kommunikation mit der Audiopädagogin/dem Audiopädagogen der Audiopädagogischen Dienste Zürich erleben und einschätzen. Anhand eines spezifisch entwickelten Fragebogens werden die Teilaspekte „Vertrauensbildung“, „Empowerment“ und „Regelmässiger Austausch“ quantitativ erhoben und statistisch ausgewertet. Die beträchtliche Beteiligung von über 50% der Eltern ermöglicht das Aufzeigen eines aussagekräftigen Meinungsbildes. Die Ergebnisse der Befragung zeigen allgemein eine hohe Zufriedenheit der Eltern in Bezug auf die Kommunikation zwischen ihnen und den Audiopädagoginnen/Audiopädagogen, wobei die Werte des Bereiches Vertrauensbildung etwas besser ausfallen als jene des Bereiches Empowerment.

description: We analyse the integral-field spectroscopy data for the $\approx10,000$ galaxies in final data release of the MaNGA survey. We identify 188 galaxies for which the emission lines cannot be described by single Gaussian components. These galaxies can be classified into (1) 38 galaxies with broad $Hα$ and [OIII] $λ$5007 lines, (2) 101 galaxies with broad $Hα$ lines but no broad [OIII] $λ$5007 lines, and (3) 49 galaxies with double-peaked narrow emission lines. Most of the broad line galaxies are classified as Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) from their line ratios. The catalogue helps us further understand the AGN-galaxy coevolution through the stellar population of broad-line region host galaxies and the relation between broad lines' properties and the host galaxies' dynamical properties. The stellar population properties (including mass, age and metallicity) of broad-line host galaxies suggest there is no significant difference between narrow-line Seyfert-2 galaxies and Type-1 AGN with broad $Hα$ lines. We use the broad-$Hα$ line width and luminosity to estimate masses of black hole in these galaxies, and test the $M_{BH}-σ_{e}$ relation in Type-1 AGN host galaxies. Furthermore we find three dual AGN candidates supported by radio images from the VLA FIRST survey. This sample may be useful for further studies on AGN activities and feedback processes.

description: We use the new nilpotent formulation of open-closed string field theory to explore the limit where the number $N$ of identical D-branes of the starting background is large. By reformulating the theory in terms of the 't Hooft coupling $λ=κN$, where $κ$ is the string coupling constant, we explicitly see that at large $N$ only genus zero vertices with arbitrary number of boundaries survive. After discussing the homotopy structure of the obtained large $N$ open-closed theory we discuss the possibility of integrating out the open string sector with a quantum but planar homotopy transfer. As a result we end up with a classical closed string field theory described by a weak $L_\infty$-algebra, containing a tree-level tadpole which, to first order in $λ$, is given by the initial boundary state. We discuss the possibility of removing the tadpole with a closed string vacuum shift solution, to end up with a new classical closed string background, where the initial D-branes have been turned into pure closed-string backreaction.

Intimate partner violence during pregnancy and other determinant factors of preterm birth in Amhara region, Ethiopia
Creators: name: Woday, Abay
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2018

description: Background: Preterm birth (PTB) is a public health problem worldwide. However, the problem is under reported and underestimated in developing nations including Ethiopia. Moreover, limited research to date has been done to address the relationship between intimate partner violence during pregnancy and preterm births in developing nations including Ethiopia. This study aimed to assess the association between intimate partner violence during pregnancy and preterm births. Methods: Hospital based unmatched case control study design was employed on a sample of 138 cases and 276 controls from 1st February 2018 to 1st April 2018 in Amhara region, Ethiopia. The cases and controls were proportionally allocated in each hospitals based on the last one-year case flows. The outcome variable was measured by using confirmed Physician Diagnosis of prematurity. Standardized, structured and pretested questionnaire was used to collect data. The collected Data was entered using Epi-data 3.1 and was exported into SPSS version 20.0 statistical software for analysis. Independent variables with p-value less than 0.25 in the bivariate analysis were entered into multivariable logistic regression model with backward LR method. Statistical significance level was declared at p-value less than 0.05. Results: the overall proportion of any Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) exposure during pregnancy was found higher among case groups than control groups (44.8% and 25% respectively). After adjustment: women experienced any IPV during pregnancy had 2.5 times higher odds of Preterm birth compared to those never experienced any IPV [ AOR=2.85: 95%CI 1.42-6.22]. Moreover, the likelihood ratio of PTB among women experienced emotional IPV was 6 times higher compared to those didn't experienced [AOR=3.05: 95%CI 1.35-6.91]. Other determinant factors such as; residence, maternal age, education level, ante natal care, previous adverse birth outcomes and medical problems during pregnancy were significantly associated with PTB. Conclusion: The study revealed significant association between Intimate Partner Violence during pregnancy and preterm birth. Therefore, programs and strategies should be developed to prevent women violence during pregnancy at regional, zonal and district levels. Health care providers should have integrated IPV screening at routine ante natal care delivery settings. Moreover, longitudinal and qualitative studies are recommended to explore more evidence.

description: We briefly review how X-ray observations of high-redshift active galactic nuclei (AGNs) at z = 4-7 have played a critical role in understanding their basic demographics as well as their physical processes; e.g., absorption by nuclear material and winds, accretion rates, and jet emission. We point out some key remaining areas of uncertainty, highlighting where further Chandra and XMM-Newton observations/analyses, combined with new multiwavelength survey data, can advance understanding over the next decade.

description: We analyze the problem of supervised learning of ferromagnetic phase transitions from the statistical physics perspective. We consider two systems in two universality classes, the two-dimensional Ising model and two-dimensional Baxter-Wu model, and perform careful finite-size analysis of the results of the supervised learning of the phases of each model. We find that the variance of the neural network (NN) output function (VOF) as a function of temperature has a peak in the critical region. Qualitatively, the VOF is related to the classification rate of the NN. We find that the width of the VOF peak displays the finite-size scaling governed by the correlation length exponent, $ν$, of the universality class of the model. We check this conclusion using several NN architectures -- a fully connected NN, a convolutional NN and several members of the ResNet family -- and discuss the accuracy of the extracted critical exponents $ν$.

Determinants of cervical cancer screening disparities in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
Creators: name: Midaksa, Miresa
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2019

description: Background: - Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer in women worldwide and the leading cause of cancer deaths in developing countries. Cervical cancer belongs to the group of cancers that are preventable & treatable by vaccination of HPV and by early diagnoses and screening. However, most patients, 80% of patients, in developing countries like Ethiopia, screened late with advanced stage disease in which treatment may involve multiple modalities that is associated with low participation in cervical cancer screening services. Objective:- This study was aimed to assess the determinants of cervical cancer screening disparities among women in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Methods: Institutional based case control study was conducted. Controls were women who have received screening services during the last 3-5 years and cases were randomly selected women coming for other services but not ever screened and aware of the screening service. Accordingly, 294 women were enrolled. Data was collected by using structured questionnaire through interviewing. Bivariate and multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to assess the association between each explanatory variables and screening disparity. Results: The study shows respondents having higher sexual autonomy were 3.128 times more likely to have better practice on CC screening than those having lower sexual autonomy [(AOR=3.128, 95% C.I:(1.730, 5.658)]. Women who were referred from other health facility 67.5 % more practice to be screened CC than those not referred from other health facility [(AOR=0.325, 95% C.I: (0.147, 0.720)]. In addition to this, women who have 1-4 children 2.844 times more likely to have a better practice on CC screening than those having no child [(AOR=2.844, 95% C.I: (1.344, 6.014)]. Conclusion: This study revealed women's own sexual autonomy, exposure to referral health system and giving more birth contribute CC screening disparities. Thus, incorporating these factors align with CC service into local health policy efforts will enable better targeted interventions in Addis Ababa and, could also provide focus on issues of sexual autonomy which is linked to gender
Noise-induced transport in the motion of trapped ions

description: The interplay of noise and quantum coherence in transport gives rise to rich dynamics relevant for a variety of systems. In this work, we put forward a proposal for an experiment testing noise-induced transport in the vibrational modes of a chain of trapped ions. We focus on the case of transverse modes, considering multiple-isotope chains and an "angle trap", where the transverse trapping varies along the chain. This variation induces localization of the motional modes and therefore suppresses transport. By suitably choosing the action of laser fields that couple to the internal and external degrees of freedom of the ions, we show how to implement effective local dephasing on the modes, broadening the vibrational resonances. This leads to an overlap of the local mode frequencies, giving rise to a pronounced increase in the transport of excitations along the chain. We propose an implementation and measurement scheme which require neither ground-state cooling nor low heating rates, and we illustrate our results with a simulation of the dynamics for a chain of three ions.
