description: The daily lives of adolescents have changed significantly because of COVID-19 pandemic. We investigated the effects of changes in daily life attributed to COVID-19 on allergic diseases among Korean adolescents. Data from the 2021 Korea Youth Risk Behavior Survey were used. In total, 54,848 survey participants were included in the analysis. Allergic diseases included allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis, and asthma. Changes attributed to COVID-19 included family economic difficulties, physical activity, breakfast skipping frequency, alcohol consumption, smoking, and depressive moods. Chi-square tests and multiple logistic regression analyses were conducted to examine the impact of changes in daily life attributed to COVID-19 on allergic diseases. Among the Korean adolescents surveyed, 29.8% experienced a deterioration in their economic status due to COVID-19, 49.1% reported decreased physical activity, 2.8% reported increased alcohol consumption, 1.0% reported an increase in their smoking behavior, and 36.9% reported an increase in depressive moods. Those diagnosed with atopic dermatitis, allergic rhinitis, or asthma within the previous 12 months accounted for 17.1%, 6.2%, and 1.0% of the population, respectively. Adolescents who were significantly affected by COVID-19 in their daily lives were frequently diagnosed with allergic diseases within the last 12 months. Changes in daily life due to COVID-19, including decreased physical activity and increased depressive mood, were common in adolescents and were associated with an increased prevalence of allergic diseases. Since changes in daily life due to the pandemic may increase the burden of allergic disease, additional interventions for disease management should be considered.

description: Multi-scale, multi-physics models provide a physics-constrained framework to explore interactions between complex molecular processes and clinically measurable whole-organ function. Having a better knowledge of such interactions might help identifying novel disease phenotypes and designing novel targeted therapies, and ultimately improve patient care. We developed a framework for a scalable, multi-scale and multi-physics whole-heart model that is able to simulate molecular function up to whole heart electrical activation, mechanical contraction and the circulatory system. We broke down this model into five hierarchical sub-models to identify unimportant parameters and reduce the complexity of the analysis. This allowed us to reduce the number of parameters from 117 to 45. Using the ARCHER2 computing facilities, we used this platform to vary these 45 parameters, ranging across all scales and physics in the model, and run 500 simulations to generate a training dataset for Gaussian Processes Emulators. The trained emulators were then used to run a global sensitivity analysis and to build an interaction map between the model parameters and the clinically measurable outputs simulated by the model. This provides a robust method for mapping between molecular processes and clinical measurements.

description: In statistical prediction, classical approaches for model selection and model evaluation based on covariance penalties are still widely used. Most of the literature on this topic is based on what we call the “Fixed-X” assumption, where covariate values are assumed to be nonrandom. By contrast, it is often more reasonable to take a “Random-X” view, where the covariate values are independently drawn for both training and prediction. To study the applicability of covariance penalties in this setting, we propose a decomposition of Random-X prediction error in which the randomness in the covariates contributes to both the bias and variance components. This decomposition is general, but we concentrate on the fundamental case of ordinary least-squares (OLS) regression. We prove that in this setting the move from Fixed-X to Random-X prediction results in an increase in both bias and variance. When the covariates are normally distributed and the linear model is unbiased, all terms in this decomposition are explicitly computable, which yields an extension of Mallows’ Cp that we call RCp. RCp also holds asymptotically for certain classes of nonnormal covariates. When the noise variance is unknown, plugging in the usual unbiased estimate leads to an approach that we call RCp ^, which is closely related to Sp, and generalized cross-validation (GCV). For excess bias, we propose an estimate based on the “shortcut-formula” for ordinary cross-validation (OCV), resulting in an approach we call RCp+. Theoretical arguments and numerical simulations suggest that RCp+ is typically superior to OCV, though the difference is small. We further examine the Random-X error of other popular estimators. The surprising result we get for ridge regression is that, in the heavily regularized regime, Random-X variance is smaller than Fixed-X variance, which can lead to smaller overall Random-X error.

description: Thermoelectrics (TE) materials manifest themselves in direct conversion of temperature differences to electric power and vice versa. Despite remarkable advances have been achieved in the past decades for various TE systems, the energy conversion efficiencies of TE devices, which is characterized by a dimensionless figure-of-merit (ZT ), remain a generally poor factor that severely limits their competitiveness and range of employment. The bottleneck for substantially boosting ZT coefficient lies in the strong interdependence of the physical parameters involved in electronic and phononic transport. Here, we propose a new strategy of incorporating nanotwinned structures to decouple the electronic and phononic transport. Combining the new concept of nanotwin with the previously widely used nanocrystalline approach, the power factor of the Si nanotwin-nanocrystalline heterostructures is enhanced by 120% compared to bulk crystalline Si, while the lattice thermal conductivity is reduced to a level well below the amorphous limit, yielding a theoretical limit of 0.43 for ZT coefficient at room temperature. This value is almost two orders of magnitude larger than that for bulk Si and twice of the polycrystalline Si. Even for the experimentally existing nanotwin-nanocrystalline heterostructures (e.g. grain size of 5 nm), the ZT coefficient can be as high as 0.2 at room temperature, which is the highest ZT value among all the Si based bulk nanostructures so far. Such substantial improvement stems from two aspects: (1) the improvement of the power factor is caused by the increase of Seebeck coefficient (degeneracy of the band valley) and the enhancement of electrical conductivity (the reduction of the effective band mass); (2) the significant reduction of the lattice thermal conductivity is mainly caused by the extremely strong phonon-grain boundary and phonon-twin boundary scattering.

description: We have modeled laser-induced transient current waveforms in radiation coplanar grid detectors. Poisson's equation has been solved by finite element method and currents induced by photo-generated charge were obtained using Shockley-Ramo theorem. The spectral response on a radiation flux has been modeled by Monte-Carlo simulations. We show 10$\times$ improved spectral resolution of coplanar grid detector using differential signal sensing. We model the current waveform dependence on doping, depletion width, diffusion and detector shielding and their mutual dependence is discussed in terms of detector optimization. The numerical simulations are successfully compared to experimental data and further model simplifications are proposed. The space charge below electrodes and a non-homogeneous electric field on a coplanar grid anode are found to be the dominant contributions to laser-induced transient current waveforms.

description: One of the debates around sustainability and the scaling up of micro-financial services is the commercialisation of micro-finance institutions (MFIs). This paper examines the contribution of the commercialisation of MFIs to ensuring the sustainability of MFIs and in scaling up their commitment to serve their primary target groups: poor and marginalised people. By using household-level data from rural Ethiopia and secondary data from selected MFIs, the study systematically examines the characteristic of MFIs and the factors determining the choice of farmers for MFIs vis-à-vis informal institutions. However, MFIs have achieved rapid growth in the number of beneficiaries, and have also gradually shifted away from their traditional primary targets (poor households) toward not-so-poor households and even large-scale investors: a drift in mission. The paper argues that, unless regulated, this commercialisation incentivises MFIs to transform themselves into conventional banks. The primary aim of the MFI project was to create vibrant financial institutions that are committed to serving poor and marginalised people. The research also identifies factors related to loan terms and household characteristics that strongly determine the choice of farmers for MFI loans.
An investigation on the leading and subleading high-energy behavior of hadron-hadron total cross sections using a best-fit analysis of hadronic scattering data

description: In the present investigation we study the leading and subleading high-energy behavior of hadron-hadron total cross sections using a best-fit analysis of hadronic scattering data. The parametrization used for the hadron-hadron total cross sections at high energy is inspired by recent results obtained by Giordano and Meggiolaro (2014) using a nonperturbative approach in the framework of QCD and it reads $σ_\text{tot} \sim B\ln^2 s + C\ln s\ln\ln s$. Both $B$ and $C$ are obtained by means of best-fits to data for proton-proton and antiproton-proton scattering, including recent data obtained at the LHC, and also to data for other meson-baryon and baryon-baryon scattering processes. The results are compared to the theoretical predictions existing in the literature. In particular, following the above-mentioned nonperturbative QCD approach, we also consider fits where the parameters $B$ and $C$ are set to $B = κB_\text{th}$ and $C = κC_\text{th}$, where $B_\text{th}$ and $C_\text{th}$ are universal quantities related to the QCD stable spectrum, while $κ$ (treated as an extra free parameter) is related to the asymptotic value of the ratio $σ_\text{el}/σ_\text{tot}$. Different possible scenarios are then considered and compared.

description: The goal of deliverable D.10.7 is to verify and certify the technical characteristics and economic gains of the INVADE platform carried out in all 5 pilots. For the INVADE project all harvested pilot-data have been analysed and optimized through the INVADEplatform. The differences between predicted and actual energy performance are measured and reported. Each pilot has analysed the improvements, and given recommendation for further improvements, when they decide “next step”. There are also climate related gains for each pilot, and these are well described in the LCA-analyses in the deliverable D.3.5. The results show that the more complexity, the more improvements the INVADE-platform contributes with.

description: Achieving remission in severe asthma holds paramount importance in elevating patient quality of life and reducing both individual and societal burdens associated with this chronic condition. This study centers on identifying pivotal patient-relevant endpoints through standardized, reproducible methods, while also developing a patient-centric definition of remission, essential for effective disease management. A discrete choice experiment (DCE) was conducted to assess patients’ perceptions on the four primary criteria for defining severe asthma remission, as outlined by the SANI survey. Additionally, it investigated the correlation between these perceptions and improvements in the doctor-patient therapeutic alliance during treatment decision-making. 249 patients (70% aged between 31–60, 59% women and 82% without other pathologies requiring corticosteroids) prioritize the use of oral corticosteroids (OCS, 48%) and the Asthma Control Test (ACT, 27%) in defining their condition, ranking these above lung function and exacerbations. This preference for OCS stems from its direct role in treatment, tangible tracking, immediate symptom relief, and being a concrete measure of disease severity compared to the less predictable and quantifiable exacerbations. This study explores severe asthma remission from patients’ perspectives using clinician-evaluated parameters. The DCE revealed that most patients highly value OCS and the ACT, prefer moderate improvement, and avoid cortisone cycles. No definitive preference was found for lung function status. Integrating patient-reported information with professional insights is crucial for effective management and future research. Personalized treatment plans focusing on patient preferences, adherence, and alternative therapies aim to achieve remission and enhance quality of life.

description: This article proposes a novel paradigm for building regression trees and ensemble learning in survival analysis. Generalizations of the classification and regression trees (CART) and random forests (RF) algorithms for general loss functions, and in the latter case more general bootstrap procedures, are both introduced. These results, in combination with an extension of the theory of censoring unbiased transformations (CUTs) applicable to loss functions, underpin the development of two new classes of algorithms for constructing survival trees and survival forests: censoring unbiased regression trees and censoring unbiased regression ensembles. For a certain “doubly robust” CUT of squared error loss, we further show how these new algorithms can be implemented using existing software (e.g., CART, RF). Comparisons of these methods to existing ensemble procedures for predicting survival probabilities are provided in both simulated settings and through applications to four datasets. It is shown that these new methods either improve upon, or remain competitive with, existing implementations of random survival forests, conditional inference forests, and recursively imputed survival trees.

description: We propose a novel scheme to normalize scattering modes of the electromagnetic field. By relying on analytical solutions for Maxwell's equations in the homogenous medium outside the scatterer, we derive normalization conditions that only depend on the electromagnetic field on the surface of a sphere containing the scatterer. We pay special attention to the important cases of plane wave illumination and illumination with a multipolar field, for which an explicit and easy to use normalization condition is derived. We demonstrate the versatility of our method by normalizing scattering modes of some selected metallic and dielectric scatterers of different geometries in the context of different application scenarios. Since every quantum mechanical treatment of light-matter interaction requires the proper normalization of electromagnetic fields, we deem our proposed normalization scheme broadly applicable independent of the scatterer involved.

description: This paper addresses the problem of sizing the spillway of a closed check dam. Check dams are structures designed to control the solid transport and morphology of mountain streams. Paradoxically, however, their spillways are typically sized in clear-water conditions. The paper first analyses the behaviour of a check dam under clear water and then under live-bed conditions which is by far the most frequent operating condition. The theoretical approach is based on the conservation equations of solid mass, total mass, momentum and energy of the flow. The results of the theory are then compared with the results of some experiments in a laboratory channel equipped with a closed circuit for solid and liquid flow rates. The comparison between experiments and theory shows the validity of the approach. As expected, in some conditions that are far from rare, the design made in the clear-water condition is not safe.

description: The variation of dielectric constant and dielectric loss of two novel polybenzimidazole (PBI) were studied at constant temperature with variable frequency. The polymers have shown maximum dielectric constant at low applied frequency 50 Hz at 393 K due to the space charge polarization. The AC conductivity and activation energy of polymers were arrived from dielectric constant and dielectric loss values. PBIs were synthesized by the oxidative polycondensation of benzimidazole monomers, 2-(1H-benzo [d] imidazole-2-yl)-4-bromophenol (BIBP), and 2-(1H-benzo [d] imidazole-2-yl)-6-methoxyphenol (BIMP) in an aqueous alkaline medium using NaOCl as oxidant. The monomers and polymers were characterized by various spectroscopic techniques. Fluorescence spectra of monomers and polymers showed their λ max emission in the region of 472–479 and 463–472 nm respectively. The electrical conductivities of iodine doped polybenzimidazoles were measured by four-point probe technique and it increases with increase in iodine vapour contact time. The electrical conductivity values were correlated with the charge density on imidazole nitrogen obtained from Huckel calculation method. Both the PBI are having reasonably good thermal stability and are shown by high carbines residues of around 40% at 500°C in thermogravimetric analysis.

description: The mechanical behaviour of solid biological tissues has long been described using models based on classical continuum mechanics. However, the classical continuum theories of elasticity and viscoelasticity cannot easily capture the continual remodelling and associated structural changes of biological tissues. Furthermore, models drawn from plasticity theory are difficult to apply and interpret in this context, where there is no equivalent of a yield stress or flow rule. In this work, we describe a novel one-dimensional mathematical model of tissue remodelling based on the multiplicative decomposition of the deformation gradient. We express the mechanical effects of remodelling as an evolution equation for the 'effective strain', a measure of the difference between the current state and a hypothetical mechanically-relaxed state of the tissue. This morphoelastic model combines the simplicity and interpretability of classical viscoelastic models with the versatility of plasticity theory. A novel feature of our model is that while most models describe growth as a continuous quantity, here we begin with discrete cells and develop a continuum representation of lattice remodelling based on an appropriate limit of the behaviour of discrete cells. To demonstrate the utility of our approach, we use this framework to capture qualitative aspects of the continual remodelling observed in fibroblast-populated collagen lattices, in particular its contraction and its subsequent sudden re-expansion when remodelling is interrupted.

description: We endorse the idea, suggested in recent literature, that BitCoin prices are influenced by sentiment and confidence about the underlying technology; as a consequence, an excitement about the BitCoin system may propagate to BitCoin prices causing a Bubble effect, the presence of which is documented in several papers about the cryptocurrency. In this paper we develop a bivariate model in continuous time to describe the price dynamics of one BitCoin as well as the behavior of a second factor affecting the price itself, which we name confidence indicator. The two dynamics are possibly correlated and we also take into account a delay between the confidence indicator and its delivered effect on the BitCoin price. Statistical properties of the suggested model are investigated and its arbitrage-free property is shown. Further, based on risk-neutral evaluation, a quasi-closed formula is derived for European style derivatives on the BitCoin. A short numerical application is finally provided.

description: Motivated by the recent experiments indicating superconductivity in metal-decorated graphene sheets, we investigate their quasi-particle structure within the framework of an effective tight-binding Hamiltonian augmented by appropriate BCS-like pairing terms for p-type order parameter. The normal state band structure of graphene is modified not only through interaction with adsorbed metal atoms, but also due to the folding of bands at Brillouin zone boundaries resulting from a $\sqrt{3}\times\sqrt{3}R30^{\circ}$ reconstruction. Several different types of pairing symmetries are analyzed utilizing Nambu-Gorkov Green's function techniques to show that $p+ip$-symmetric nearest-neighbor pairing yields the most enhanced superconducting gap. The character of the order parameter depends on the nature of the atomic orbitals involved in the pairing process and exhibits interesting angular and radial asymmetries. Finally, we suggest a method to distinguish between singlet and triplet type superconductivity in the presence of magnetic substitutional impurities using scanning tunneling spectroscopy.

description: We consider the stationary sine-Gordon equation on metric graphs with simple topologies. The vertex boundary conditions are provided by flux conservation and matching of derivatives at the star graph vertex. Exact analytical solutions are obtained. It is shown that the method can be extended for tree and other simple graph topologies. Applications of the obtained results to branched planar Josephson junctions and Josephson junctions with tricrystal boundaries are discussed.

Large linear magnetoresistance in a transition-metal stannide $β$-RhSn$_4$

description: Materials exhibiting large magnetoresistance may not only be of fundamental research interest, but also can lead to wide-ranging applications in magnetic sensors and switches. Here we demonstrate a large linear-in-field magnetoresistance, $Δρ/ρ$ reaching as high as $\sim$600$\%$ at 2 K under a 9 Tesla field, in the tetragonal phase of a transiton-metal stannide $β$-RhSn$_4$. Detailed analyses show that its magnetic responses are overall inconsistent with the classical model based on the multiple electron scattering by mobility fluctuations in an inhomogenous conductor, but rather in line with the quantum effects due to the presence of Dirac-like dispersions in the electronic structure. Our results may help guiding the future quest for quantum magnetoresistive materials into the family of stannides, similar to the role played by PtSn$_4$ with topological node arcs.

title: The lived experiences and psychosocial needs of carers of people with type 2 diabetes
Creators: name: Turner, Anne
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2024

description: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a global health problem where ineffective management causes poor health outcomes. People living with T2D and their unpaid carers experience diabetes distress, anxiety, and depression. The literature about these carers’ lived experiences and psychosocial needs is relatively under-developed. This research aimed to explore these lived experiences and thus reveal the psychosocial needs of carers of people with T2D, equally between female and male carers. Qualitative phenomenological research was undertaken using ten semi-structured interviews guided by an interview schedule. Data were analysed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis. Carer stress over-arched all three major emergent themes. The first theme concerned the personal impact T2D had on carer self-identity, fears of future erosion of self-identity and anxieties about escalating burdens of care due to diabetes complications. Secondly (theme two), the interface between T2D and established dyadic relationships found different relationship dynamics, levels of acceptance and avoidance of the diagnosis and carer behaviours around lifestyle change. The third theme exposed carers’ psychosocial needs for therapeutic discussions, stress reduction, protecting the future and maintaining positive thinking. The thesis concluded that when caring for someone with T2D carers frequently experience stress, which they manage through the use of a diverse range of strategies. Their stress was associated with changes in self-identity, escalating burdens of care and dyadic conflict especially over the perceived need for dietary change. Potential future research includes how role change affects carer identity, how readiness for lifestyle changes influences dyadic conflict and how to enhance carer engagement in structured education and prevention programmes. Further research could examine what meaningful carer-professional encounters look like and how carers define and mitigate stress. There is opportunity for research to inform policy development that practically helps to reduce carer stress thus supporting them better.

description: It is shown that continuously changing the effective number of interacting particles in p-spin-glass-like model allows to describe the transition from the full replica symmetry breaking glass solution to stable first replica symmetry breaking glass solution in the case of non-reflective symmetry diagonal operators used instead of Ising spins. As an example, axial quadrupole moments in place of Ising spins are considered and the boundary value $p_{c_{1}}\cong 2.5$ is found.

description: Achieving remission in severe asthma holds paramount importance in elevating patient quality of life and reducing both individual and societal burdens associated with this chronic condition. This study centres on identifying pivotal patient-relevant endpoints through standardized, reproducible methods, while also developing a patient-centric definition of remission, essential for effective disease management. A discrete choice experiment (DCE) was conducted to assess patients’ perceptions on the four primary criteria for defining severe asthma remission, as outlined by the SANI survey. Additionally, it investigated the correlation between these perceptions and improvements in the doctor-patient therapeutic alliance during treatment decision-making. 249 patients (70% aged between 31-60, 59% women and 82% without other pathologies requiring corticosteroids) prioritize the use of oral corticosteroids (OCS, 48%) and the Asthma Control Test (ACT, 27%) in defining their condition, ranking these above lung function and exacerbations. This preference for OCS stems from its direct role in treatment, tangible tracking, immediate symptom relief, and being a concrete measure of disease severity compared to the less predictable and quantifiable exacerbations. This study explores severe asthma remission from patients’ perspectives using clinician-evaluated parameters. The DCE revealed that most patients highly value OCS and the ACT, prefer moderate improvement, and avoid cortisone cycles. No definitive preference was found for lung function status. Integrating patient-reported information with professional insights is crucial for effective management and future research. Personalized treatment plans focusing on patient preferences, adherence, and alternative therapies aim to achieve remission and enhance quality of life.
Phase space of modified Gauss-Bonnet gravity

description: We investigate the evolution of non vacuum Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) with any spatial curvature in the context of Gauss-Bonnet gravity. The analysis employs a new method which enables us to explore the phase space of any specific theory of this class. We consider several examples, discussing the transition from a decelerating into an acceleration universe within these theories. We also deduce from the dynamical equations some general conditions on the form of the action which guarantee the presence of specific behaviours like the the emergence of accelerated expansion. As in $f(R)$ gravity, our analysis shows that there is a set of initial conditions for which these models have a finite time singularity which can be an attractor. The presence of this instability also in the Gauss-Bonnet gravity is to be ascribed to the fourth-order derivative in the field equations, i.e., is the direct consequence of the higher order of the equations.

description: State measurement of a quantum harmonic oscillator is essential in quantum optics and quantum information processing. In a system of trapped ions, we experimentally demonstrate the projective measurement of the state of the ions' motional mode via an effective cross-Kerr coupling to another motional mode. This coupling is induced by the intrinsic nonlinearity of the Coulomb interaction between the ions. We spectroscopically resolve the frequency shift of the motional sideband of the first mode due to presence of single phonons in the second mode and use it to reconstruct the phonon number distribution of the second mode.
