description: Regulation of skeletal remodeling appears to influence the differentiation of multipotent mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) resident in the bone marrow. As murine marrow cultures are contaminated with hematopoietic cells, they are problematic for studying direct effects of mechanical input. Here we use a modified technique to isolate marrow-derived MSC (mdMSC) from adult mice, yielding a population able to differentiate into adipogenic and osteogenic phenotypes that is devoid of hematopoietic cells. In pure mdMSC populations, a daily strain regimen inhibited adipogenic differentiation, suppressing expression of PPARγ and adiponectin. Strain increased β-catenin and inhibition of adipogenesis required this effect. Under osteogenic conditions, strain activated β-catenin signaling and increased expression of WISP1 and COX2. mdMSC were also generated from mice lacking caveolin-1, a protein known to sequester β-catenin: caveolin-1(−/−) mdMSC exhibited retarded differentiation along both adipogenic and osteogenic lineages, but retained mechanical responses that involved β-catenin activation. Interestingly, caveolin-1(−/−) mdMSC failed to express bone sialoprotein and did not form mineralized nodules. In summary, mdMSC from adult mice respond to both soluble factors and mechanical input, with mechanical activation of β-catenin influencing phenotype. As such, these cells offer a useful model for studies of direct mechanical regulation of MSC differentiation and function.

description: The Koslowski-Sahlmann (KS) representation is a generalization of the representation underlying the discrete spatial geometry of Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG), to accommodate states labelled by smooth spatial geometries. As shown recently, the KS representation supports, in addition to the action of the holonomy and flux operators, the action of operators which are the quantum counterparts of certain connection dependent functions known as "background exponentials". Here we show that the KS representation displays the following properties which are the exact counterparts of LQG ones: (i) the abelian $*$ algebra of $SU(2)$ holonomies and `$U(1)$' background exponentials can be completed to a $C^*$ algebra (ii) the space of semianalytic $SU(2)$ connections is topologically dense in the spectrum of this algebra (iii) there exists a measure on this spectrum for which the KS Hilbert space is realised as the space of square integrable functions on the spectrum (iv) the spectrum admits a characterization as a projective limit of finite numbers of copies of $SU(2)$ and $U(1)$ (v) the algebra underlying the KS representation is constructed from cylindrical functions and their derivations in exactly the same way as the LQG (holonomy-flux) algebra except that the KS cylindrical functions depend on the holonomies and the background exponentials, this extra dependence being responsible for the differences between the KS and LQG algebras. While these results are obtained for compact spaces, they are expected to be of use for the construction of the KS representation in the asymptotically flat case.

Ziel des Projekts ist es, Verlage zu kontaktieren und diese bei der Erstellung und Implementierung einer Green Policy zu unterstützen. Der Blick wird auf die Publikationslandschaft von FH’s und PH’s gerichtet. Häufiger als an Universitäten wird hier in Fachmedien und landessprachlichen Zeitschriften publiziert. Die jeweiligen Geschäftsmodelle sind jedoch schlecht mit einer Umstellung auf Gold Open Access vereinbar. Mit dem gezielten Fokus auf den Green-Open-Acess-Weg wird eine nachhaltige Lösung für alle involvierten Akteuren gesucht, die helfen soll, das Ziel der nationalen Open Access Strategie der Schweiz zu erreichen; d. h. bis Ende 2024 100% der öffentlich geförderten, wissenschaftlichen Publikationen im Open Access (OA) verfügbar zu machen.

description: Understanding the complex behavior of pedestrians walking in crowds is a challenge for both science and technology. In particular, obtaining reliable models for crowd dynamics, capable of exhibiting qualitatively and quantitatively the observed emergent features of pedestrian flows, may have a remarkable impact for matters as security, comfort and structural serviceability. Aiming at a quantitative understanding of basic aspects of pedestrian dynamics, extensive and high-accuracy measurements of pedestrian trajectories have been performed. More than 100.000 real-life, time-resolved trajectories of people walking along a trafficked corridor in a building of the Eindhoven University of Technology, The Netherlands, have been recorded. A measurement strategy based on Microsoft Kinect\texttrademark has been used; the trajectories of pedestrians have been analyzed as ensemble data. The main result consists of a statistical descriptions of pedestrian characteristic kinematic quantities such as positions and fundamental diagrams, possibly conditioned to local crowding status (e.g., one or more pedestrian(s) walking, presence of co-flows and counter-flows).

description: Our objective was to monitor chondrocyte gene expression at 0, 3, 7, and 14 days following in vitro impaction to the articular surface of porcine patellae. Patellar facets were either axially impacted with a cylindrical impactor (25 mm/sec loading rate) to a load level of 2000 N or not impacted to serve as controls. After being placed in organ culture for 0, 3, 7, or 14 days, total RNA was isolated from full thickness cartilage slices and gene expression measured for 17 genes by quantitative real-time RT-PCR. Targeted genes included those encoding proteins involved with biological stress, inflammation, or anabolism and catabolism of cartilage extracellular matrix. Some gene expression changes were detected on the day of impaction, but most significant changes occurred at 14 days in culture. At 14 days in culture, 10 of the 17 genes were differentially expressed with col1a1 most significantly up-regulated in the impacted samples, suggesting impacted chondrocytes may have reverted to a fibroblast-like phenotype.

description: We study the dynamics defined by the Boltzmann equation set in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^D$ in the vicinity of global Maxwellians with finite mass. A global Maxwellian is a special solution of the Boltzmann equation for which the collision integral vanishes identically. In this setting, the dispersion due to the advection operator quenches the dissipative effect of the Boltzmann collision integral. As a result, the large time limit of solutions of the Boltzmann equation in this regime is given by noninteracting, freely transported states and can be described with the tools of scattering theory.

description: Tendons mainly function as load-bearing tissues in the muscloskeletal system, transmitting loads from muscle to bone. Tendons are dynamic structures that respond to the magnitude, direction, frequency, and duration of physiologic as well as pathologic mechanical loads via complex interactions between cellular pathways and the highly specialized extracellular matrix. This paper reviews the evolution and current knowledge of mechanobiology in tendon development, homeostasis, disease, and repair. In addition, we review several novel mechanotransduction pathways that have been identified recently in other tissues and cell types, providing potential research opportunities in the field of tendon mechanobiology. We also highlight current methods, models, and technologies being used in a wide variety of mechanobiology research that could be investigated in the context of their potential applicability for answering some of the fundamental unanswered questions in this field. The article concludes with a review of the major questions and future goals discussed during the recent ORS/ISMMS New Frontiers in Tendon Research Conference held September 10–11, 2014 in New York City.

description: We consider classical spin models of two- and three-dimensional spins with continuous symmetry and investigate the effect of a symmetry-breaking unidirectional quenched disorder on the magnetization of the system. We work in the mean-field regime. We show, by perturbative calculations and numerical simulations, that although the continuous symmetry of the magnetization is lost due to disorder, the system still magnetizes in specific directions, albeit with a lower value as compared to the case without disorder. The critical temperature, at which the system starts magnetizing, as well as the magnetization at low and high temperature limits, in presence of disorder, are estimated. Moreover, we treat the SO(n) n-component spin model to obtain the generalized expressions for the near-critical scalings, which suggest that the effect of disorder in magnetization increases with increasing dimension. We also study the behavior of magnetization of the classical XY spin model in the presence of a constant magnetic field, in addition to the quenched disorder. We find that in presence of the uniform magnetic field, disorder may enhance the component of magnetization in the direction that is transverse to the disorder field.

description: Register allocation is a much studied problem. A particularly important context for optimizing register allocation is within loops, since a significant fraction of the execution time of programs is often inside loop code. A variety of algorithms have been proposed in the past for register allocation, but the complexity of the problem has resulted in a decoupling of several important aspects, including loop unrolling, register promotion, and instruction reordering. In this paper, we develop an approach to register allocation and promotion in a unified optimization framework that simultaneously considers the impact of loop unrolling and instruction scheduling. This is done via a novel instruction tiling approach where instructions within a loop are represented along one dimension and innermost loop iterations along the other dimension. By exploiting the regularity along the loop dimension, and imposing essential dependence based constraints on intra-tile execution order, the problem of optimizing register pressure is cast in a constraint programming formalism. Experimental results are provided from thousands of innermost loops extracted from the SPEC benchmarks, demonstrating improvements over the current state-of-the-art.

description: To remain useful for their users, software systems need to continuously enhance and extend their functionality. Nevertheless, in many object-oriented applications, features are not represented explicitly. The lack of modularization is known to make application features difficult to locate, to comprehend and to modify in isolation from one another. In our work, we implement restructuring using Featureous plug-in where we can change the classes between packages. In the previous literature works, lot of complexities arises while using the tool due to dependencies. Changes to the code without knowing the root cause of the problem leads to further production of new errors. So, we aim in finding the restructuring candidates which have to be rearranged, thereby applying changes to the code on those parts using the tool helps in ordered arrangement of the source code. Applying modularization to the restructuring candidates will lead to decrease in the human effort as well as tool effort in restructuring. Unwanted evolution of new errors will be eliminated

Year: 2009

description: The purpose of the study was to examine whether psychosocial and spiritual well-being is associated with African-American dialysis patients' end-of-life treatment preferences and acceptance of potential outcomes of life sustaining treatment. Fifty-one African Americans with end stage renal disease (ESRD) completed a socio-demographic questionnaire and interview with measures of symptom distress, health-related quality of life, psychosocial and spiritual well-being, and preferences and values related to life sustaining treatment choices. The subjects were stratified by end-of-life treatment preferences and by acceptance of life sustaining treatment outcomes and compared for psychosocial and spiritual well-being as well as socio-demographic and clinical characteristics. Individuals who desired continued use of life sustaining treatment in terminal illness or advanced dementia had significantly lower spiritual well-being (p = .012). Individuals who valued four potential outcomes of life sustaining treatment as unacceptable showed a more positive, adaptive well-being score in the spiritual dimension compared to the group who valued at least one outcome as acceptable (p = .028). Religious involvement and importance of spirituality were not associated with end-of-life treatment preferences and acceptance of treatment outcomes. African Americans with ESRD expressed varied levels of psychosocial and spiritual well-being, and this characteristic was associated with life sustaining treatment preferences. In future research, the assessment of spirituality should not be limited to its intensity or degree but extended to other dimensions.

description: INTRODUCTION Social justice is considered the root of nursing responsibilities due to historical and enduring practices of promoting health and redressing social barriers that impact on health. This statement is supported in the literature and philosophies of national and international nursing organisations. However, in the United Kingdom, scholarly interest and nursing organisational position is ambiguous on social justice. AIM AND OBJECTIVES My research aim was to explore ideas for empowering student nurses to engage in actions that promotes social justice practices. The objectives included understanding the meaning of social justice, recognising the impact of social injustice on health, ascertaining the visibility of social justice learning in nurse education, and developing ideas for incorporating social justice practices in nurse education. METHODS Research methods were situated in critical interpretivism and constructivism grounded theory qualitative research design. Data was collected from semi-structured interviews with eleven student nurses and focus groups with eleven nurse educators, in a City of London nurse education institution. Data was analysed using Charmaz’s grounded theory initial, focused, and theoretical coding levels. FINDINGS Firstly, social justice was understood as conditions that fosters health experience. Secondly, social injustice was recognised as conditions that hinders health experience. Thirdly, social justice learning was found to be equivocal in nurse education. Lastly, it was discovered that frameworks can be used to incorporate social justice learning into nurse education. DISCUSSION I have created a framework on Awareness for Social Justice Action for the purpose of developing the critical student nurse for social justice awareness and action. This is my unique contribution to knowledge that reconcile educational theories with aspirations of research participants in the context of nurse education. CONCLUSION Doing the Professional Doctor of Education programme provided opportunities for shaping my research ideas. Systematic processing of these ideas was demonstrated throughout my research and contributed to my framework on promoting social justice nurse education to address persisting health inequities.

description: Eine Sichtung des aktuellen Wissenstands rund um das Thema «Aging Workforce» macht deutlich, dass in den letzten Jahren die Forschungsbemühungen rund um das Thema der alternden
 Belegschaft deutlich zugenommen haben und die Rolle der älteren Arbeitnehmenden im Kontext der demografischen Entwicklung einen entscheidenden Faktor für den Erhalt der Wettbewerbsfähigkeit darstellt. Am Beispiel der Kantonalbanken in der Deutschschweiz wird das Altersmanagement aus Sicht der Mitarbeitenden beleuchtet. In einer Onlinebefragung haben sich 885 Mitarbeitende zum Altersmanagement geäussert. Aus den Resultaten wird ersichtlich, dass ein Drittel der Befragten
 mit dem vorhandenen Altersmanagement zufrieden ist, ein Drittel zwar zufrieden ist, sich aber mehr Aktivitäten auf diesem Gebiet wünscht, und ein Drittel mit den vorhandenen Ansätzen unzufrieden ist. Befangenheiten werden aus den Ergebnissen der Befragung deutlich: So weisen jüngere Arbeitnehmende auf angeblich mangelnden Lernwillen und fehlende Flexibilität der «Aging Workforce» hin und ältere Mitarbeitende geben an, eine gewisse diskriminierende Tendenz bei Beförderungen wahrzunehmen. Erste Handlungsempfehlungen zeigen die Bedeutung von Führung auf Augenhöhe und Beitragsmanagement und die Chancen des Einsatzes von kollaborativen Lern- und Arbeitsgelegenheiten, um eine Kultur des Vertrauens und gegenseitiger Wertschätzung noch weiter zu festigen. Die Absicht der Kantonalbanken, ältere Arbeitnehmende langfristig in die Arbeitswelt
 zu integrieren, kann durch die Wahlmöglichkeiten alternativer Arbeits- und Pensionierungsmodelle unterstrichen sowie durch weiterführende Angebote im Bereich Gesundheitsmanagement und Resilienz bestärkt werden.

description: We analyze different claims on the role of the coupling constant lambda in so-called lambda-R models, a minimal generalization of general relativity inspired by Horava-Lifshitz gravity. The dimensionless parameter lambda appears in the kinetic term of the Einstein-Hilbert action, leading to a one-parameter family of classical theories. Performing a canonical constraint analysis for closed spatial hypersurfaces, we obtain a result analogous to that of Bellorin and Restuccia, who showed that all non-projectable lambda-R models are equivalent to general relativity in the asymptotically flat case. However, the tertiary constraint present for closed boundary conditions assumes a more general form. We juxtapose this with an earlier finding by Giulini and Kiefer, who ruled out a range of lambda-R models by a physical, cosmological argument. We show that their analysis can be interpreted consistently within the projectable sector of Horava-Lifshitz gravity, thus resolving the apparent contradiction.

description: The present study used electronic diaries to examine how parent responses to their child's pain predict daily adjustment of children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Nine school-aged children with JIA along with one of their parents completed thrice-daily assessments of pain-related variables, activity participation, and mood using handheld computers (Palm® pilots) for 14 days, yielding a potential of 42 child and parent assessments for each dyad. Children provided information on current pain level, mood, and participation in social, physical, and school activities. Parents independently rated their own mood as well as their behavioral responses to their child's pain at the same time points using a separate handheld computer. Results of multilevel modeling analyses demonstrated that use of “protective” pain responses by parents significantly predicted decreases in child activity and positive mood, with an even stronger inverse relationship between protective pain response and positive mood observed in children with higher than average disease severity. Protective pain responses were not found to be significantly predictive of daily negative mood in children. The use of “distracting” responses by parents significantly predicted less child activity restrictions but only in children having higher disease severity. There also was an unexpected trend in which parent use of more distracting pain responses tended to be associated with lower child positive mood. These preliminary findings suggest the importance of the parent in influencing adjustment in children with JIA and lend support to the incorporation of parents into comprehensive pain management approaches. The potential benefits of using electronic daily diaries as a strategy to examine pain and adjustment in children with JIA pain are discussed.

description: Magnetic semiconductors are at the core of recent spintronics research endeavors. Chemically doped II-VI diluted magnetic semiconductors, such as (Zn$_{1-x}$Cr$_{x}$)Te, provide promising platform in this quest. However, a detailed knowledge of the microscopic nature of magnetic ground state is necessary for any practical application. Here, we report on the synergistic study of (Zn$_{1-x}$Cr$_{x}$)Te single crystals using elastic neutron scattering measurements and density functional calculations. For the first time, our research unveils the intrinsic properties of ferromagnetic state in macroscopic specimen of (Zn$_{0.8}$Cr$_{0.2}$)Te. The ferromagnetism is onset at $T_c \sim$ 290 K and remains somewhat independent to modest change in the substitution coefficient x. We show that magnetic moments on Zn/Cr site develop ferromagnetic correlation in a-c plane with large ordered moment of $μ$ = 3.08 $μ_B$. Magnetic moment across the lattice is induced via the mediation of Te site, uncoupled to the number of dopant carriers as inferred from the density functional calculation. Additionally, the ab-initio calculations also reveal half-metallicity in x = 0.2 composition. These properties are highly desirable for future spintronic applications.

Beam energy dependence of the expansion dynamics in relativistic heavy ion collisions: Indications for the critical end point?

description: The flow harmonic $v_{n}$ and the emission source radii $R_{\text{out}}$, $R_{\text{side}}$ and $R_{\text{long}}$ are studied for a broad range of centrality selections and beam collision energies in Au+Au ($\sqrt{s_{NN}}= 7.7 - 200$ GeV) and Pb+Pb ($\sqrt{s_{NN}}= 2.76$ TeV) collisions at RHIC and the LHC respectively. They validate the acoustic scaling patterns expected for hydrodynamic-like expansion over the entire range of beam energies studied. The combined data sets allow estimates for the \sqsn\ dependence of the mean expansion speed $\left$, emission duration $\left$ and the viscous coefficients $\left$ that encode the magnitude of the specific shear viscosity $\left$. The estimates indicate initial-state model independent values of $\left$ which are larger for the plasma produced at 2.76 TeV (LHC) compared to that produced at 200 GeV (RHIC) ($\left<4πη/s\right>_{\text{LHC}}=2.2\pm 0.2$ and $\left<4πη/s\right>_{\text{RHIC}}=1.3\pm 0.2$). They also show a non-monotonic \sqsn\ dependence for $\left$, $\left$ and $\left$, with minima for $\left$ and $\left$, and a complimentary maximum for $\left$. These dependencies signal a significant change in reaction dynamics in a narrow span of $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$, which may be linked to reaction trajectories close to the critical end point (CEP) in the phase diagram for nuclear matter.

description: This research established a conceptual framework for managing organizational change for the adoption of artificial intelligence. The authors have worked through research and found 85 success factors for the adoption of AI. These 85 factors have been mapped onto a tentative framework consisting of the following items: Incentives (Success, Emotions, Ease), Organization (Culture, Process, Technology), and People (Behavior, Understanding, Mindset). This tentative framework has been developed based on almost 40 years of story fragments. The conceptual framework has been established through different steps. First, success factors for the adoption of artificial intelligence have been distilled from a literature research. The literature research focuses on the adoption of new technology, the adoption of artificial intelligence as well as change management for the introduction of artificial intelligence in organizations. Secondly, the success factors are mapped onto the tentative framework. Lastly, the conceptual framework is established through showing that all success factors could be mapped and all items on the tentative framework are covered by success factors found in literature research. The conceptual framework for managing change together with the success factors allow for organizations to follow an approach for the adoption of artificial intelligence. Overall, the conclusion is that the tentative framework on managing organizational change can be “proven” by the mapping of the success factors and can therefore be called a conceptual framework for “the science of change” with a focus on the adoption of artificial intelligence.
No equivalence: A new principle of no synonymy
Creators: name: Leclercq, Benoît
name: Morin, Cameron
Publisher: name: Constructions
Year: 2023

description: Goldberg’s (1995, 67) principle of no synonymy features among the foundational conceptual tools of Construction Grammar. This principle states that when two constructions differ in form, they must be semantically or pragmatically distinct. In recent years, increasing concerns have been raised as to its theoretical and descriptive accuracy however (e.g. Kinsey et al., 2007; Uhrig, 2015; Laporte et al., 2021), leading Uhrig (2015) to argue that it is largely ‘overrated’. The aim of this paper is twofold. First, we present a critical discussion aimed at answering these concerns and we contend that the principle is neither overrated nor inaccurate. Second, we argue that the principle would gain in precision and explanatory power if it were to be conceptually fine-tuned under a new name: the ‘principle of no equivalence’. We show that the notions of competition and distributional niche are crucial to understanding the principle and that, alongside the ‘semantic’ and ‘pragmatic’ types of meaning, the notion of ‘social’ meaning is another crucial factor that needs to be taken into account.

Pseudospin Dynamical Symetry in Nuclei

Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)

description: Pseudospin symmetry has been useful in understanding atomic nuclei. We review the arguments that this symmetry is a relativistic symmetry. The condition for this symmetry is that the sum of the vector and scalar potentials in the Dirac Hamiltonian is a constant. We give the generators of pseudospin symmetry. We review some of the predictions that follow from this insight into the relativistic origins of pseudospin symmetry. Since in nuclei the sum of the scalar and vector potentials is not zero but is small, we discuss preliminary investigations into the conditions on the potentials to produce partial dynamic pseudospin symmetry. Finally we show that approximate pseudospin symmetry in nuclei predicts approximate spin symmetry in anti-nucleon scattering from nuclei.
