Creating OPAs for Interdisciplinary Team Leadership of the Inpatient Rehabilitation Team
Creators: name: Lee, John J
Publisher: name: University of Illinois Chicago
Year: 2025

description: Context: Team leadership is an important part of the field of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R) as the needs of patients with impairments require an interdisciplinary rehabilitation team to successfully address. Entrustable professional activities (EPAs) are units of work that are deemed necessary to the field and that trainees need to become competent in. PM&R has 19 EPAs of which EPA # 15 is “leading and interdisciplinary rehab team and crafting an interdisciplinary rehab plan.” In order to use EPAs for education or assessment, they need to be deconstructed into smaller units called observable practice activities (OPAs). There are not any existing OPAs for EPA # 15 in PM&R. The primary aim of this study was to create OPAs for EPA # 15, specific to the inpatient rehabilitation setting.

Methods: A Delphi panel of 14 physiatrists who predominantly practice in the inpatient rehabilitation setting was utilized to gain consensus on creating OPAs for EPA # 15.

Results: 3 OPAs for each of the 7 crucial inpatient rehabilitation tasks emerged after two rounds and a third round was used to modify the verbiage of the OPAs.

Conclusions: The OPAs for EPA # 15 can be used for goal setting, education and assessment of P&R trainees in the inpatient rehabilitation setting.

Year: 2008

description: We show that the alphabet size can play an essential role in the issue of automata
synchronization. We give an example of 5-state automaton (over 3-letter alphabet) not
isomorphic to \v{C}ern{\'{y}}'s one,with the minimal synchronizing word of length $(n-1)^2 = 16$.
It is known [2] that there is no such automaton for 2-1etter alphabet.

title: Ways of Meaning: Machinic animims and the revolutionary practice of
geo-psychiatry
Creators: name: Melitopoulos, Angela

description: Based on audio-visual research and an archival survey, this thesis
addresses questions regarding the possible relations that could be
established between artistic practice, geo-psychiatry, politics,
resistance, pursuing an updated cosmic thinking in which “soul” and
“machine” exist everywhere simultaneously, in order to deal with 
thenotion of multiplicity intensified by the proliferation of machinic
social relations. The underlying investigation follows Félix Guattari’s
interest in animist cosmologies and practises that can be seen as
models of subjectivity production that can be folded into our
contemporary existence. Guattari was convinced that animism, far
from being a return to irrationalism, is a way to overcome and to
neutralize the ontological dualisms of modernity that have become
the main sources of many of the contemporary political, ecological,
social, scientific, and aesthetic problems. This thesis connects the
anthropological approaches of Viveiros de Castro, Elisabeth von
Samsonow, and Barbara Glowczewski with the experimental
approaches of institutional psychiatry, from the ‘migrant work’ of the
Catalan anarcho-syndicalist psychiatrist and resistance fighter
François Tosquelles to the psychiatric clinic of La Borde where Félix
Guattari worked all his life, as well as the cinematic and cartographic
projects of the Research Group Fernand Deligny and their therapeutic
practices. The aim is to show that geo-psychiatry started as a
decolonisation of our psychic life from the ontological dualisms of
modern thought. The main concepts of the collective assemblage of
enunciation and form of machinic animism pursued by Guattari are
central to the emergence of these aesthetic paradigms in an
increasingly affirmative culture of connectivity between techno-allied
bodies. It reaches out to networks of resistances that build animist
subjectivities in anti-colonial minority politics in the Global South.
And finally it evaluates a technophile becoming of our subjectivity in
the fabrication of the techno-scientific modes of seeing the earth with
regard to environmental politics and the autonomy and right of
migration.

description: The profusion of knowledge encoded in large language models (LLMs) and their ability to apply this knowledge zero-shot in a range of settings makes them promising candidates for use in decision-making. However, they are currently limited by their inability to provide outputs which can be faithfully explained and effectively contested to correct mistakes. In this paper, we attempt to reconcile these strengths and weaknesses by introducing \emph{argumentative LLMs (ArgLLMs)}, a method for augmenting LLMs with argumentative reasoning. Concretely, ArgLLMs construct argumentation frameworks, which then serve as the basis for formal reasoning in support of decision-making. The interpretable nature of these argumentation frameworks and formal reasoning means that any decision made by ArgLLMs may be explained and contested. We evaluate ArgLLMs' performance experimentally in comparison with state-of-the-art techniques, in the context of the decision-making task of claim verification. We also define novel properties to characterise contestability and assess ArgLLMs formally in terms of these properties.

description: Pd bimetallic nanoparticles are versatile catalytic materials for electrochemical, thermal, and organic catalysis. In this dissertation, we explore how the composition and morphology of the Pd bimetallic structure influence both the electronic properties and local geometry of the Pd active site. Through careful design of core-shell and alloy nanostructures, we are able to enhance the efficiency of the electrocatalytic oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and the diastereoselectivity in a hydroxyl-directed olefin hydrogenation reaction. Metallic Pd is among the most active catalysts for electrocatalytic ORR in acidic and alkaline media, but significant overpotentials are still required to achieve device-relevant catalytic current densities. One strategy to tune the redox properties of surface Pd active sites is to utilize a core-shell structure, in which the core metal modulates the electronic properties of a thin Pd shell. Because the electronic effect of the core dissipates rapidly with increasing shell thickness, precise and uniform monolayer structures are required. In this work, we develop a colloidal ligand-exchange deposition strategy to synthesize core-shell structures of Au@Pd with precise submonolayer, monolayer, and multilayer structure. Using these materials, we show that Pd shell thickness correlates directly to the redox potential of surface Pd atoms and subsequently to the required overpotential for electrochemical ORR. In addition to tuning the electronic properties of Pd active sites, bimetallic morphology can also be used to control active site ensemble geometry. In this effort, we synthesize Pd-Cu alloy nanoparticles with well-defined Pd and Cu surface distribution in order to catalyze diastereoselective hydroxyl-directed olefin hydrogenation. Directed hydrogenation, typically catalyzed by cationic Rh and Ir complexes, is utilized in organic synthesis to generate highly-functionalized and diastereomerically-pure alcohol products. No nanoparticle catalyst has been shown to achieve equivalently high diastereoselectivity through substrate direction. In our Pd-Cu alloy design, we anticipate that the hydroxyl directing group preferentially binds the more oxophilic Cu atom, bringing the olefin to the Pd active site in a well-defined orientation and delivering hydrogen exclusively from the same face as the hydroxyl group. Using terpinen-4-ol as a model substrate, we show that a Pd3Cu/SiO2 catalyst, thermally annealed under both N2 and H2 to generate an intermetallic surface, is capable of achieving high conversion and excellent diastereoselectivity toward the directed hydrogenation.
La tutela giurisdizionale nella procedura per il riconoscimento del diritto di asilo : un'analisi comparata sull'effettivit� in Italia e in Francia ? La protection juridictionnelle au sein de la proc�dure pour l'octroi du droit d?asile : une analyse compar�e sur l'effectivit� en Italie et en France

description: Il diritto internazionale, europeo e, in Italia e in Francia, costituzionale, tengono in considerazione la vulnerabilit� che caratterizza i richiedenti asilo, prevedendo discipline di diritto sostanziale che garantisco a questi ultimi una qualche forma di protezione politico-umanitaria ove sussistano le condizioni normativamente previste a tal fine. La tesi mira a verificare se questa debolezza sia considerata altres� nelle discipline processuali. In effetti, la garanzia dei diritti fondamentali dello straniero non riguarda il solo livello normativo, bens� coinvolge anche i giudici. Il richiedente asilo deve avere la possibilit� di perorare la propria causa personale dinanzi all?autorit� giurisdizionale. La questione � di primaria importanza, soprattutto ove si consideri la tendenza ad approvare leggi nazionali sempre pi� restrittive dei diritti degli stranieri, alla ricerca del consenso elettorale di breve termine. La positivizzazione del diritto di asilo, un prerequisito essenziale per la sua realizzazione, non � in grado di cancellare la distanza tra la sua enunciazione e la sua realizzazione; piuttosto, la trasla su un differente piano, quello dell?effettivit�. La questione che si pone � dunque quella di verificare l?effettivit� della protezione per i richiedenti asilo, con specifico riferimento alla fase giurisdizionale della procedura prevista per il riconoscimento del diritto. Pi� precisamente, la tesi ha come obiettivo quello di studiare la concreta possibilit� per questi soggetti di adire il giudice e chiedergli il riconoscimento dell?asilo a seguito della decisione avversa dell?autorit� amministrativa sulla medesima richiesta. Il lavoro esamina gli ordinamenti italiano e francese, con approccio comparato, muovendosi nel contesto regionale europeo.

description: The digits of the Pierce expansion satisfy the law of large numbers. It is known that the Hausdorff dimension of the set of exceptions to the law of large numbers is 1. We provide an elementary proof of this fact by adapting Jun Wu's method, which was originally used for Engel expansions. Our approach emphasizes the fractal nature of exceptional sets and avoids advanced machinery, thereby relying instead on explicit sequences and constructive techniques. Furthermore, our method opens the possibility of extending similar analyses to other real number representation systems, such as the Engel, Lüroth, and Sylvester expansions, thus paving the way for further explorations in metric number theory and fractal geometry.

description: A long standing problem in the study of the under-hole-doped cuprates has been the description of the Fermi surfaces underlying the high magnetic field quantum oscillations, and their connection to the higher temperature pseudogap metal. Harrison and Sebastian (arXiv:1103.4181) proposed that the pseudogap `Fermi arcs' are reconstructed into an electron pocket by field-induced charge density wave order. But computations on such a model (Zhang and Mei, arXiv:1411.2098) show an unobserved additional oscillation frequency from a Fermi surface arising from the backsides of the hole pockets completing the Fermi arcs. We describe a transition from a fractionalized Fermi liquid (FL*) model of the pseudogap metal, to a metal with bi-directional charge density wave order without fractionalization. We show that the confinement of the fermionic spinon excitations of the FL* across this transition can eliminate the unobserved oscillation frequency.

Electric Modernism
Creators: name: Larsen, Haley Anne
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2021
Subjects: Literary studies not elsewhere classified

description: This dissertation traces invocations and theories of electric power in modernist literature by women, showing how four modernist authors—Edith Wharton, Hilda Doolittle (H.D.), Olive Moore, and Jean Rhys—deploy electricity in their fiction and highlight its varied and contradictory cultural meanings. Modernist literature by women leverages the open and strange impressions from the era of what electricity might mean, so that authors might make their own arguments about where artistic impulses originate, how homes would change when they became wired, how modernization would change modernist art forms, or why some social spaces gleam brighter than others. Edith Wharton and Jean Rhys highlight cultural and class system dynamics with their electric metaphors and electrically wired settings, in which they fuse mental states with modern atmospheres. H.D. and Olive Moore explore how women experience artistic inspiration, as either a transcendent space of unlimited possibility for the former, or as proof of the limitations of gender for the latter.

Quitopia. Collective city-making, participation and autonomy in Quito's urban future.
Creators: name: TESTORI, GIULIA
Publisher: name: Universit� IUAV di Venezia
Year: 2019

description: Lo scopo di questa tesi di dottorato � immaginare un modo in cui le citt� possano essere pianificate tramite un approccio inclusivo. Scegliendo lEcuador come caso studio, vengono presi in esame una serie di concetti e articoli appartenenti alla Costituzione Ecuadoriana e al Piano Nazionale del 2008, focalizzandosi su argomenti come la citt�, la partecipazione e lautonomia. In questo modo, la ricerca tenta di rilevare le potenzialit� di tale quadro istituzionale al fine di soddisfare il diritto alla citt� in Ecuador. In un secondo momento, la ricerca evidenzia come, nonostante la presenza di partecipazione e autonomia in questo panorama giuridico, tali principi finora sono stati attuati se non in minima parte. Per tentare di colmare questa lacuna tra teoria e pratica, la tesi esamina la storia culturale di partecipazione e autogestione del territorio ecuadoriano e sceglie di portare alla luce unantica pratica andina, tuttora esercitata, chiamata minga. Dopo averne studiato levoluzione e le cooptazioni attraverso i secoli, lattenzione si concentra sugli impatti delle mingas in diversi momenti storici nelle periferie urbane di Quito. Questa analisi � perseguita attraverso lo studio degli attori, gli eventi, i processi decisionali e gli impatti spaziali delle mingas nel modellare il territorio di tre quartieri autogestiti di Quito. Lultimo capitolo chiamato Quitopia, come il titolo della tesi, immagina infine uno scenario in cui la recente costituzione ecuadoriana ed il sostrato culturale legato alla minga, si fondono in unutopia in cui gli spazi collettivi metropolitani di Quito sono interamente rimodellati e co-gestiti. Seppur concentrandosi su un caso specifico, lEcuador, linterpretazione del background normativo e lo studio della cultura locale relativa alla creazione di spazi collettivi, vengono visti come un potente binomio utilizzabile ovunque si voglia sperimentare alternative future in contesti urbani.

description: Path optimization is a fundamental concern across various real-world scenarios, ranging from traffic congestion issues to efficient data routing over the internet. The Traffic Assignment Problem (TAP) is a classic continuous optimization problem in this field. This study considers the Integer Traffic Assignment Problem (ITAP), a discrete variant of TAP. ITAP involves determining optimal routes for commuters in a city represented by a graph, aiming to minimize congestion while adhering to integer flow constraints on paths. This restriction makes ITAP an NP-hard problem. While conventional TAP prioritizes repulsive interactions to minimize congestion, this work also explores the case of attractive interactions, related to minimizing the number of occupied edges. We present and evaluate multiple algorithms to address ITAP, including a message passing algorithm, a greedy approach, simulated annealing, and relaxation of ITAP to TAP. Inspired by studies of random ensembles in the large-size limit in statistical physics, comparisons between these algorithms are conducted on large sparse random regular graphs with a random set of origin-destination pairs. Our results indicate that while the simplest greedy algorithm performs competitively in the repulsive scenario, in the attractive case the message-passing-based algorithm and simulated annealing demonstrate superiority. We then investigate the relationship between TAP and ITAP in the repulsive case. We find that, as the number of paths increases, the solution of TAP converges toward that of ITAP, and we investigate the speed of this convergence. Depending on the number of paths, our analysis leads us to identify two scaling regimes: in one the average flow per edge is of order one, and in another the number of paths scales quadratically with the size of the graph, in which case the continuous relaxation solves the integer problem closely.

description: Glioblastoma is the most common and aggressive malignant tumor of the central nervous system in adults. It can occur at any age, but 70% of patients are diagnosed between the ages of 45 and 70. These tumors show a high proliferation rate with diffuse infiltration of adjacent brain tissue and a rapidly progressive course (around 2-3 months).Tumors are usually located in the cerebral hemispheres, but can be found throughout the central nervous system. The first choice treatment is usually surgical, both to confirm the diagnosis through a biopsy, and to remove the tumor mass as extensively as possible. Unfortunately, a complete resection is very infrequent, as cancer cells usually infiltrate the surrounding brain. Therefore, the goal of surgery is only to obtain a histological diagnosis, decrease the symptoms due to the increase in intracranial pressure and prolong survival. Surgery is usually followed by radiation therapy and chemotherapy but there is a treatment gap of 2 to 3 weeks between tumor resection and subsequent therapies. The post-surgical therapeutic standard currently consists of a chemo-radiotherapy association with Temozolomide (TMZ) for the entire duration of radiotherapy, followed by adjuvant TMZ. However, tumor recurrences due to residual infiltrative cells at the resection margin are extremely common.
This study aims at developing a mouse model of glioblastoma recurrences by a surgical protocol of partial tumor removal in mouse brains, for subsequent on-site treatment with thermogel, a ?smart? material loaded with TMZ. For this purpose, the U87MG human glioblastoma cell line was chosen for the development of a mouse orthotopic model in the striatum, a subcortical region of the brain. Once tumors of sufficient size were obtained, a microsurgery protocol with craniotomy was optimized for the partial removal of the tumor mass in order to study the phenomenon of recurrence. The cavity thus obtained was filled with thermogel containing TMZ. The effect due to this treatment was confirmed by two different types of analysis: histological and bioluminescent. The histological analysis allowed us to verify the correct inoculation region of the tumor cells and to verify their growth. Furthermore, by measuring the tumor present in the brain slices removed from treated and untreated mice, we were able to measure the area of each tumor with a specific software, verifying the effectiveness of the treatment. To confirm obtained data, we carried out another type of analysis, using the IVIS In Vivo Imaging System, usingU87MG cells stably expressing the firefly enzyme luciferase from Luciola Italica (Red-FLuc). By recording the bioluminescence emitted by the tumor cells inoculated inside the brain of the mice, following an adequate stimulus, we confirmed the effect of the treatment of the thermogel containing the chemotherapeutic.

description: This paper presents an unsupervised machine learning analysis of a large-scale dataset examining morphological and phonological processing in English monolingual, Chinese-English bilingual, and Spanish-English bilingual children. The dataset is drawn from a functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) and behavioral study of 343 children (plus additional entries for missing or complementary records), covering comprehensive linguistic measures (phonological awareness, morphological awareness, vocabulary, word reading, nonword reading, passage comprehension, and reading fluency), as well as demographic and language-background data.Leveraging four primary clustering methods—K-Means, Agglomerative Clustering, DBSCAN, and HDBSCAN—we identified distinct grouping structures within the data based on multiple numeric features. A key objective was to investigate whether unsupervised approaches could meaningfully differentiate children based on their linguistic or literacy profiles, potentially uncovering subgroups pertinent to reading development. The best overall silhouette score (0.5546) was obtained by Agglomerative Clustering with two clusters using ‘average’ linkage.Notably, we contextualize these findings within the broader literature on bilingual language acquisition and reading-related cognitive processes in childhood. Our results encourage a deeper examination of emergent language and reading constructs using advanced unsupervised methods and underscore the dataset’s utility for exploring bilingualism, morphological and phonological skills, and reading development. 
Older adults' maintenance of physical activity: An investigation of the motives of enjoyment, satisfaction, identity, and self-determination

description: Many older adults report that they do not regularly engage in physical activity, highlighting the need for the creation of interventions that are more conducive to promoting sustained behavioral engagement. Physical activity intervention development should first begin with the identification of modifiable factors that are related to the behavior and the conditions under which these factors do and do not impact physical activity, as well as the validation of instruments to measure these factors. Enjoyment of physical activity, satisfaction with physical activity, self-determination, and physical activity identity have been theorized as four “maintenance motives” necessary for health behavior maintenance. The purpose of this dissertation research project was to identify which of these theory-based motives are associated with the maintenance of physical activity for older adults (≥ 55 years of age) and to test the robustness of measures of motive assessment. This dissertation consists of several studies detailed in five chapters. Chapter 2 reports the findings of two studies that examined older adults’ beliefs related to their physical activity maintenance through both a free-response format and in-depth semi-structured interviews. Chapters 3 and 4 describe a systematic review and meta-analysis that explored the relations between enjoyment, satisfaction, self-determination, and identity and older adults’ physical activity maintenance. The following two chapters include two studies that investigated the robustness of measurement instruments assessing self-determined regulatory styles for physical activity (i.e., self-determination) and physical activity identity (Chapter 5) and physical activity enjoyment and satisfaction (Chapter 6). Together, findings suggest that these four motives are related to the maintenance of physical activity for older adults, with more evidence supporting the relation between self-determination and maintenance. Findings provide insight as to for whom (e.g., older adults with health conditions) and in which context (e.g., re-engaging in physical activity after time away) motives may exert their influence on behavior. Moreover, this dissertation project reports psychometric properties of new and modified measures that can be used to assess the maintenance motives in future studies. This dissertation contributes to the literature by enabling researchers to more accurately and confidently choose and measure proposed mechanisms of change and thus provides a foundation upon which future physical activity intervention development can expand.

STOCHASTIC MODEL GENERATION AND SELECTION FOR DEVICE EMULATING STRUCTURAL MATERIAL NONLINEARITY

Subjects: Structural engineering

description: Structural identification is a useful tool for detecting damage and damage evolution in a structure. The initiation of damage in a structure and its subsequent growth are mainly associated with nonlinear behaviors. While linear dynamics of a structure are easy to simulate, nonlinear structural dynamics have more complex dynamics and amplitude dependence that do require more sophisticated simulation tools and identification methods compared to linear systems. Additionally, there are generally many more parameters in nonlinear models and the responses may not be sensitive to all of them for all inputs. To develop model selection methods, an experiment is conducted that uses an existing device with repeatable behavior and having an expected model from the literature. In this case, an MR damper is selected as the experimental device. The objective of this research is to develop and demonstrate a method to select the most appropriate model from a set of identified stochastic models of a nonlinear device. The method is developed using numerical example of a common nonlinear system, and is then implemented on an experimental structural system with unknown nonlinear properties. Bayesian methods are used because they provide a distinct advantage over many other existing methods due to their ability to provide confidence on answers given the observed data and initial uncertainty. These methods generate a description of the parameters of the system given a set of observations. First, the selected model of the MR damper is simulated and used for demonstrating the results on a numerical example. Second, the model selection process is demonstrated on an experimental structure based on experimental data. This study explores the use of the Bayesian approach for nonlinear structural identification and identifies a number of lessons for others aiming to employ Bayesian inference.
