Investigating impact exposure and functional neurological status in collegiate football players
Creators: name: Rebchuk, Alexander David
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: A single head impact in sport can cause an acute concussion, whereas repetitive head impacts are suspected to cause chronic neurological impairment. However, the diagnostic accuracy of concussion assessment tools are not well understood and sparse research evidence exists regarding the neurological implications of repetitive head impacts. The objective of this thesis was to investigate repetitive head impacts, including impact detection technology and neurocognitive function, over the duration of a collegiate football season. Thirty-five healthy participants were recruited from a collegiate football program for a three-part study. Participants adhered an impact detection sensor (xPatch, X2 Biosystems) to their right mastoid process prior to each game and practice. As well, they completed a weekly battery of neurological testing that included the graded symptom checklist, standardized assessment of concussion, balance error scoring system and King-Devick test. In experiment 1, we investigated the accuracy of the xPatch to classify each detected event as an impact or non-impact. We matched each event to game video and assigned a true positive, false positive, true negative or false negative classification. The sensitivity of the sensor was 77.6%, specificity was 70.4% and overall accuracy was 75.1%. Additionally, we determined that impact count is strongly correlated to cumulative head kinematic load, i.e. cumulative linear acceleration (r²=0.98), cumulative rotational acceleration (r²=0.98) and cumulative rotational velocity (r²=0.99). In experiment 2, we explored the relationship between alterations in neurological status and repetitive head impact exposure using linear mixed models. The number of head impacts sustained was significantly related to the number and severity of symptoms in participants, but not to any other indicator of neurological status. In experiment 3, we investigated the diagnostic accuracy of each neurological test using receiver operating characteristic curves and corresponding area under the curve values. The diagnostic accuracy for the graded symptom checklist was high (0.76-0.93), King-Devick Test was moderate (0.64-0.80), standardized assessment of concussion and balance error scoring system were poor (0.47-0.71). In summary, this thesis identified limitations in current impact detection technology, provided evidence of a link between repetitive head impacts and symptomatology, and determined that the graded symptom checklist can accurately diagnose concussion.

description: In common-interest stochastic games all players receive an identical payoff. Players participating in such games must learn to coordinate with each other in order to receive the highest-possible value. A number of reinforcement learning algorithms have been proposed for this problem, and some have been shown to converge to good solutions in the limit. In this paper we show that using very simple model-based algorithms, much better (i.e., polynomial) convergence rates can be attained. Moreover, our model-based algorithms are guaranteed to converge to the optimal value, unlike many of the existing algorithms.

description: A master equation, derived from the non-Markovian quantum state diffusion (NMQSD), is used to calculate excitation energy transfer in the photosynthetic Fenna-Matthews-Olson (FMO) pigment-protein complex at various temperatures. This approach allows us to treat spectral densities that contain explicitly the coupling to internal vibrational modes of the chromophores. Moreover, the method is very efficient, with the result that the transfer dynamics can be calculated within about one minute on a standard PC, making systematic investigations w.r.t. parameter variations tractable. After demonstrating that our approach is able to reproduce the results of the numerically exact hierarchical equations of motion (HEOM) approach, we show how the inclusion of vibrational modes influences the transfer.

description: The NaI and BGO detectors on the Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) on Fermi are now being used for long-term monitoring of the hard X-ray/low energy gamma-ray sky. Using the Earth occultation technique as demonstrated previously by the BATSE instrument on the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory, GBM can be used to produce multiband light curves and spectra for known sources and transient outbursts in the 8 keV to 1 MeV energy range with its NaI detectors and up to 40 MeV with its BGO detectors. Over 85% of the sky is viewed every orbit, and the precession of the Fermi orbit allows the entire sky to be viewed every ~26 days with sensitivity exceeding that of BATSE at energies below ~25 keV and above ~1.5 MeV. We briefly describe the technique and present preliminary results using the NaI detectors after the first two years of observations at energies above 100 keV. Eight sources are detected with a significance greater than 7 sigma: the Crab, Cyg X-1, SWIFT J1753.5-0127, 1E 1740-29, Cen A, GRS 1915+105, and the transient sources XTE J1752-223 and GX 339-4. Two of the sources, the Crab and Cyg X-1, have also been detected above 300 keV.

description: Controlled modification of graphene properties is essential for its proposed electronic applications. Here we describe a possibility of tuning electrical properties of graphene via electron beam irradiation. We show that by controlling the irradiation dose one can change the carrier mobility and increase the resistance at the minimum conduction point in the single layer graphene. The bilayer graphene is less susceptible to the electron beam irradiation. The modification of graphene properties via irradiation can be monitored and quantified by the changes in the disorder D peak in Raman spectrum of graphene. The obtained results may lead to a new method of defect engineering of graphene physical properties, and to the procedure of "writing" graphene circuits via e-beam irradiation. The results also have implications for fabrication of graphene nanodevices, which involve scanning electron microscopy and electron beam lithography.
Novel mechanisms involving B cell receptor (BCR) and B cell activating factor (BAFF) signaling pathways underlying human primary immunodeficiencies and malignancy
Creators: name: Rozmus, Jacob
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: The proper differentiation and survival of human peripheral immature B cells relies on two critical signaling pathways: B cell receptor (BCR) signaling and the B cell activating factor (BAFF)/BAFF-receptor (BAFF-R) signaling axis. The quality of the BCR signal is regulated in a developmental manner. Self-reactive early immature B cells are eliminated in response to strong BCR-induced signals, while late immature B cells require BCR-induced signals for survival and further differentiation. Although components and events downstream of the BCR are well known, the mechanisms of BCR signaling and its role in the regulation of BAFF signaling are still poorly understood. Through the use of transgenic and knockout murine models, the effects of BAFF on murine B cell maturation and survival are well characterized. There is a crucial need to better understand the functions of BAFF in humans. High levels of soluble BAFF, reduced expression of BAFF-R and BCR signaling abnormalities in B cells have been identified in a large group of clinically heterogeneous diseases including autoimmune and inflammatory conditions, allergy, viral infections and lymphoid cancers. In order to better understand BCR signaling mechanisms, functional properties of human BAFF and factors regulating BAFF-R expression, this thesis describes: 1) the phenotypic, molecular and functional characterization of rare unknown inherited monogenic immunodeficiencies involving defects in early B cell development and the BAFF/BAFF-R pathway and, 2) the functional characterization of dysregulated BAFF/BAFF-R signaling in B cell malignancy. This led to the discovery of two novel primary immunodeficiencies involving MALT1 deficiency and gain-of-function PLCγ2 mutation. Our results indicate that MALT1 is essential for antigen-receptor mediated NF-κB activation and plays a role in the surface expression of BAFF-R and proper development of human B cells. The PLCγ2 mutation led to hyper-reactive BCR signaling and increased apoptosis of transitional B cells. Work-up of this patient also allowed us to investigate how soluble BAFF down-modulates surface expression of it’s principal receptor, BAFF-R, through receptor internalization, in normal B cells. Further analysis of the BAFF/BAFF-R pathway in pre-B acute lymphoblastic leukemia provides evidence of different structural and functional BAFF isoforms.

description: Aims. We present a physically consistent reconstruction of the total solar irradiance for the Holocene. Methods. We extend the SATIRE models to estimate the evolution of the total (and partly spectral) solar irradiance over the Holocene. The basic assumption is that the variations of the solar irradiance are due to the evolution of the dark and bright magnetic features on the solar surface. The evolution of the decadally averaged magnetic flux is computed from decadal values of cosmogenic isotope concentrations recorded in natural archives employing a series of physics-based models connecting the processes from the modulation of the cosmic ray flux in the heliosphere to their record in natural archives. We then compute the total solar irradiance (TSI) as a linear combination of the jth and jth + 1 decadal values of the open magnetic flux. Results. Reconstructions of the TSI over the Holocene, each valid for a di_erent paleomagnetic time series, are presented. Our analysis suggests that major sources of uncertainty in the TSI in this model are the heritage of the uncertainty of the TSI since 1610 reconstructed from sunspot data and the uncertainty of the evolution of the Earth's magnetic dipole moment. The analysis of the distribution functions of the reconstructed irradiance for the last 3000 years indicates that the estimates based on the virtual axial dipole moment are significantly lower at earlier times than the reconstructions based on the virtual dipole moment. Conclusions. We present the first physics-based reconstruction of the total solar irradiance over the Holocene, which will be of interest for studies of climate change over the last 11500 years. The reconstruction indicates that the decadally averaged total solar irradiance ranges over approximately 1.5 W/m2 from grand maxima to grand minima.

description: In this work, we modify the superparamagnetic clustering algorithm (SPC) by adding an extra weight to the interaction formula that considers which genes are regulated by the same transcription factor. With this modified algorithm that we call SPCTF, we analyze Spellman et al. microarray data for cell cycle genes in yeast, and find clusters with a higher number of elements compared with those obtained with the SPC algorithm. Some of the incorporated genes by using SPCFT were not detected at first by Spellman et al. but were later identified by other studies, whereas several genes still remain unclassified. The clusters composed by unidentified genes were analyzed with MUSA, the motif finding using an unsupervised approach algorithm, and this allow us to select the clusters whose elements contain cell cycle transcription factor binding sites as clusters worth of further experimental studies because they would probably lead to new cell cycle genes. Finally, our idea of introducing available information about transcription factors to optimize the gene classification could be implemented for other distance-based clustering algorithms

Untersuchungen zum genotoxischen Potenzial von partikulären Platingruppenelementen in kultivierten Lungenzellen [online]

description: Die zur Abgasreinigung in Kraftfahrzeugen eingesetzten
Katalysatoren stoßen bei normalem Betrieb lungengängige Partikel
aus, welche die Platingruppenelemente (PGE) Platin, Palladium
und Rhodium enthalten. Die PGE scheinen auf den ersten Blick
wegen ihrer chemischen Inertheit keine Bedrohung für die
menschliche Gesundheit darzustellen. Untersuchungen mit
Pt-haltigen Modellpartikeln, die den aus Abgaskatalysatoren
emittierten ähneln, zeigen jedoch im Tierversuch eine
überraschend hohe Bioverfügbarkeit von Platin aus diesen Partikeln.
In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurde mit verschiedenen
Mikroskopieverfahren nachgewiesen, dass kultivierte menschliche
Lungenzellen PGE-haltige Feinstpartikel aufnehmen können.
Anschließend kommt es zur Zunahme des Pt-Gehalts einer
subzellulären Proteinfraktion sowie zur Bildung von Addukten an
zellulärer DNA.
Mit speziellen Katalysator-Modellpartikeln konnten
ausführlichere Untersuchungen durchgeführt werden. Dabei wurde
gezeigt, dass die entstandenen Addukte in ihren chemischen
Eigenschaften teilweise den durch das platinhaltige Zytostatikum
cis-Diammindichloroplatin(II) (Cisplatin) hervorgerufenen
ähneln. Ihre Resistenz gegenüber dem Nukleophil CN¡ ist

description: SAPA is a domain-independent heuristic forward chaining planner that can handle durative actions, metric resource constraints, and deadline goals. It is designed to be capable of handling the multi-objective nature of metric temporal planning. Our technical contributions include (i) planning-graph based methods for deriving heuristics that are sensitive to both cost and makespan (ii) techniques for adjusting the heuristic estimates to take action interactions and metric resource limitations into account and (iii) a linear time greedy post-processing technique to improve execution flexibility of the solution plans. An implementation of SAPA using many of the techniques presented in this paper was one of the best domain independent planners for domains with metric and temporal constraints in the third International Planning Competition, held at AIPS-02. We describe the technical details of extracting the heuristics and present an empirical evaluation of the current implementation of SAPA.

description: We report the detection of a Jupiter-mass planet discovered with the SOPHIE spectrograph mounted on the 1.93-m telescope at the Haute-Provence Observatory. The new planet orbits HD109246, a G0V star slightly more metallic than the Sun. HD109246b has a minimum mass of 0.77 MJup, an orbital period of 68 days, and an eccentricity of 0.12. It is placed in a sparsely populated region of the period distribution of extrasolar planets. We also present a correction method for the so-called seeing effect that affects the SOPHIE radial velocities. We complement this discovery announcement with a description of some calibrations that are implemented in the SOPHIE automatic reduction pipeline. These calibrations allow the derivation of the photon-noise radial velocity uncertainty and some useful stellar properties (vsini, [Fe/H], logR'HK) directly from the SOPHIE data.

Frontiers of Dark Energy

Subjects: subject: Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics (astro-ph.CO)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Cosmologists are just beginning to probe the properties of the cosmic vacuum and its role in reversing the attractive pull of gravity to cause an acceleration in the expansion of the cosmos. The cause of this acceleration is given the generic name of dark energy, whether it is due to a true vacuum, a false, temporary vacuum, or a new relation between the vacuum and the force of gravity. Despite the common name, the distinction between these origins is of utmost interest and physicists are actively engaged in finding ways to use cosmological observations to distinguish which is the true, new physics. Here we will discuss how to relate the theoretical ideas to the experimental constraints, how to understand the influences of dark energy on the expansion and structure in the universe, and what frontiers of new physics are being illuminated by current and near-term data.

Nitrogen cycling processes and microbial communities in reconstructed oil-sands soils
Creators: name: Masse, Jacynthe
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Covering 140,200 square km, the Athabasca Oil Sands deposit in Alberta is one of the largest single oil deposits in the world. Following surface mining, companies are required to restore soil-like profiles that can support the previous land capabilities. The overall objective of this thesis was to measure, compare and understand processes underlying nitrogen cycling rates and microbial communities in 20- to 30- year-old reconstructed oil-sands soils and in natural boreal-forest soils. The use of ¹⁵N tracer methods in combination with massively parallel sequencing techniques of the 16S and ITS genes identified key dissimilarities between reconstructed and natural boreal-forest soils. In reconstructed soils, NH₄⁺ was mainly cycled through the recalcitrant organic-N pool. In natural soils, NH₄⁺ was produced from the recalcitrant organic-N pool, but predominantly consumed in the labile organic-N pool, suggesting greater prominence of microbial N-cycling activity in the natural soils compared to the reconstructed soils. Reconstructed soils also produced more NO₃- than they immobilized it resulting in net nitrification rates. Prokaryotic and fungal β-diversity, but not α-diversity, differed between reconstructed and natural forest soils. Microorganisms associated with a copiotrophic lifestyle were more abundant in reconstructed soils, whereas microorganisms associated with an oligotrophic lifestyle were more abundant in natural forest soils. Vegetation cover was the main factor influencing prokaryotic and fungal α-diversity in reconstructed and natural forest soils. Nitrogen deposition, pH, soil nutrient content and plant cover influenced prokaryotic and fungal β-diversity. The results of this thesis deepen our understanding of the distinct pedological environments of oil-sands reconstructed soils and highlighted the importance of above- and below-ground interactions in reconstructed and natural ecosystems.

Empirical Research

description: Open Science involves using new approaches to scientific practice that makes the outputs of research freely available under terms that enable reuse, redistribution and reproduction. Empirical research using software involves researchers identifying a problem, gathering data, building a model or writing analysis software, possibly simulating the physical system, analysing results and producing research articles. There are many topics in Open Science that could help a researcher to his or her research more open. However, particularly for those new to Open Science, it can be difficult to get started or even to organise and approach or strategy. This discussion article proposes a set of Levels of Open Science for this area and is aimed at contributing to this emerging debate.
A New General Method to Generate Random Modal Formulae for Testing Decision Procedures

description: The recent emergence of heavily-optimized modal decision procedures has highlighted the key role of empirical testing in this domain. Unfortunately, the introduction of extensive empirical tests for modal logics is recent, and so far none of the proposed test generators is very satisfactory. To cope with this fact, we present a new random generation method that provides benefits over previous methods for generating empirical tests. It fixes and much generalizes one of the best-known methods, the random CNF_[]m test, allowing for generating a much wider variety of problems, covering in principle the whole input space. Our new method produces much more suitable test sets for the current generation of modal decision procedures. We analyze the features of the new method by means of an extensive collection of empirical tests.

description: Blogs have lately become one of the most known Web 2.0 tools and a common form of expression for the users of the Internet. Conscious of this fact, teachers are currently using blogs as learning and teaching tools. The Bologna process has signified an important change in the education paradigm. Competency-based design and assessment is just one of the aspects that has changed and is perhaps one of the most critical ones. However, are our students aware of its competencies acquisition? Do it actually have a bearing on their own learning process? For all these reasons, a research group led by the University of Barcelona proposes to carry out a project called Formative competency-based assessment through blogs. This project consists in the design, implementation and evaluation of a blog-based model for student assessment based on competencies.

description: Modern society is increasingly dependent on the communication and information technology. Teachers preparation cannot ignore matters such as the increasing threat of trading, development of the impact of Communication and Information Technology nor the requirement for sustainability. Under this context we have considered useful to present in this article the results pertaining to a section of a much wider research, having as main object the Romanian teaching professionals initial training  process by means of study programs organized within universities. We have chosen to illustrate the section referring to the ICT utilization frequency under the initial training programs designed for the teaching career on one side, and the importance given to ICT in the context of initial training for the teaching profession on the other side. The research, performed between 2010 and 2011, has an observational improvement character.
