description: Introduction : Les personnes touchées par un accident vasculaire cérébral (AVC) représentent un grand pourcentage des patients en neuroréhabilitation. L’amélioration de leurs performances motrices est un élément qui contribue à leur récupération fonctionnelle. Le fait de diriger leur attention durant l’intervention semblerait être un moyen d’influencer leurs performances motrices. Objectifs : Evaluer l’efficacité de l’utilisation de la focalisation de l’attention sur les performances motrices des patients accidentés vasculaires cérébraux (AVC) et effectuer un lien avec la récupération fonctionnelle. Méthodologie : La recherche d’articles a été réalisée de juin 2011 à janvier 2012, sur les bases de données PubMed, CINAHL, PEDro et Kinedoc. La sélection des articles s’est faite individuellement, selon des critères d’inclusion et d’exclusion précédemment définis. Les données statistiques des outils de mesure évaluant les performances motrices ont été extraites et analysées afin d’observer leur évolution, lors d’interventions utilisant la focalisation de l’attention et de thérapies conventionnelles. Résultats : Nous avons retenus 6 articles en lien avec notre question de recherche. La focalisation de l’attention permettrait d’améliorer plus efficacement les performances motrices des patients AVC que des thérapies conventionnelles. L’évolution de ces performances aurait un impact sur la récupération fonctionnelle. Conclusion : L’utilisation de la focalisation de l’attention en physiothérapie neurologique semble pertinente pour améliorer les performances motrices des patients AVC et jouerait un rôle sur la récupération fonctionnelle. Des recherches supplémentaires dans le domaine sont nécessaires afin d’optimaliser les prises en charge en neuroréhabilitation.

description: The dark matter abundance plays a crucial role in the determination of the valid parameter space of models both in the case of a discovery of dark matter and in the context of exclusion limits. Reliable theoretical predictions of the dark matter relic density require technically demanding precision calculations, which were so far limited in their automation due to challenges in the treatment of infrared divergences appearing in higher order calculations. In particular, massive initial states need to be considered in early Universe computations, so that the known dipole subtraction methods could not be directly exploited. We therefore provide a full generalization of the dipole subtraction method by Catani and Seymour to supersymmetric (SUSY) QCD with massive initial states. All dipole splitting functions and their integrated counterparts are given explicitly for four different dimensional schemes. To showcase their application, we apply our results to dark matter (co)annihilation processes in the context of the minimal supersymmetric Standard Model. We also demonstrate the accuracy of the dipole method by comparing our numerical results with those obtained with the phase space slicing method. Our analytical results will facilitate future automation of dark matter abundance calculations at next-to-leading order for both SUSY and non-SUSY models.

description: We review astronomical results in the visible (λ<1μm) with adaptive optics. Other than a brief period in the early 1990s, there has been little astronomical science done in the visible with AO until recently. The most productive visible AO system to date is our 6.5m Magellan telescope AO system (MagAO). MagAO is an advanced Adaptive Secondary system at the Magellan 6.5m in Chile. This secondary has 585 actuators with < 1 msec response times (0.7 ms typically). We use a pyramid wavefront sensor. The relatively small actuator pitch (~23 cm/subap) allows moderate Strehls to be obtained in the visible (0.63-1.05 microns). We use a CCD AO science camera called "VisAO". On-sky long exposures (60s) achieve <30mas resolutions, 30% Strehls at 0.62 microns (r') with the VisAO camera in 0.5" seeing with bright R < 8 mag stars. These relatively high visible wavelength Strehls are made possible by our powerful combination of a next generation ASM and a Pyramid WFS with 378 controlled modes and 1000 Hz loop frequency. We'll review the key steps to having good performance in the visible and review the exciting new AO visible science opportunities and refereed publications in both broad-band (r,i,z,Y) and at Halpha for exoplanets, protoplanetary disks, young stars, and emission line jets. These examples highlight the power of visible AO to probe circumstellar regions/spatial resolutions that would otherwise require much larger diameter telescopes with classical infrared AO cameras.

description: We introduce a $\mathbb{Z}_N$ stabilizer code that can be defined on any spatial lattice of the form $Γ\times C_{L_z}$, where $Γ$ is a general graph. We also present the low-energy limit of this stabilizer code as a Euclidean lattice action, which we refer to as the anisotropic $\mathbb{Z}_N$ Laplacian model. It is gapped, robust (i.e., stable under small deformations), and has lineons. Its ground state degeneracy (GSD) is expressed in terms of a "mod $N$-reduction" of the Jacobian group of the graph $Γ$. In the special case when space is an $L\times L\times L_z$ cubic lattice, the logarithm of the GSD depends on $L$ in an erratic way and grows no faster than $O(L)$. We also discuss another gapped model, the $\mathbb{Z}_N$ Laplacian model, which can be defined on any graph. It has fractons and a similarly strange GSD.

description: The development of Automated Driving Systems (ADSs) has made significant progress in the last years. To enable the deployment of Automated Vehicles (AVs) equipped with such ADSs, regulations concerning the approval of these systems need to be established. In 2021, the World Forum for Harmonization of Vehicle Regulations has approved a new United Nations regulation concerning the approval of Automated Lane Keeping Systems (ALKSs). An important aspect of this regulation is that "the activated system shall not cause any collisions that are reasonably foreseeable and preventable." The phrasing of "reasonably foreseeable and preventable" might be subjected to different interpretations and, therefore, this might result in disagreements among AV developers and the authorities that are requested to approve AVs. The objective of this work is to propose a method for quantifying what is "reasonably foreseeable and preventable". The proposed method considers the Operational Design Domain (ODD) of the system and can be applied to any ODD. Having a quantitative method for determining what is reasonably foreseeable and preventable provides developers, authorities, and the users of ADSs a better understanding of the residual risks to be expected when deploying these systems in real traffic. Using our proposed method, we can estimate what collisions are reasonably foreseeable and preventable. This will help in setting requirements regarding the safety of ADSs and can lead to stronger justification for design decisions and test coverage for developing ADSs.

description: The hidden sector photon is a weakly interacting hypothetical particle with sub-eV mass that kinetically mixes with the photon. We describe a microwave frequency light shining through a wall experiment where a cryogenic resonant microwave cavity is used to try and detect photons that have passed through an impenetrable barrier, a process only possible via mixing with hidden sector photons. For a hidden sector photon mass of 53 $μ$eV we limit the hidden photon kinetic mixing parameter $χ< 1.7\times10^{-7}$, which is an order of magnitude lower than previous bounds derived from cavity experiments in the same mass range. In addition, we use the cryogenic detector cavity to place new limits on the kinetic mixing parameter for hidden sector photons as a form of cold dark matter.

description: Introduction : Les troubles de la marche et de l’équilibre sont des facteurs de risque de chute importants dans la maladie de Parkinson. L’essentiel du traitement physiothérapeutique consiste en leur prise en charge. La réalité virtuelle étant de plus en plus utilisée, l’objectif de cette revue est d’identifier si son utilisation est efficace dans la rééducation des troubles de la marche et de l’équilibre chez le patient parkinsonien. Méthodologie : Notre recherche d’articles a été effectuée sur les bases de données de Medline, CINAHL, Web of Knowledge, Cochrane et Pedro. Nous avons fixé la date butoir d’inclusion d’articles au 3 janvier 2012. L’extraction des données a été réalisée grâce à des tableaux Excel. Résultats : 5 articles, de différents types de devis, ont été sélectionnés. 3 d’entre eux traitent de la marche et 2 de l’équilibre. Les résultats sont en faveur de l’efficacité résiduelle de la réalité virtuelle ; elle augmente la vitesse de marche, la longueur de foulée et les scores d’équilibre. Toutefois, peu de résultats sont statistiquement significatifs. L’efficacité immédiate des LIV n’est, quant à elle, pas prouvée. Discussion : L’hétérogénéité présente dans les études incluses et leur faible qualité méthodologique nous incitent à rester prudentes quant à nos conclusions. Conclusion : Les avantages de la réalité virtuelle sont visibles surtout lors de l’exécution de doubles tâches ou de franchissements d’obstacles. Son utilisation représente un moyen de traitement qui ne doit pas se substituer à une thérapie conventionnelle.

description: In a Hermitian system, bound states must have quantized energies, whereas extended states can form a continuum. We demonstrate how this principle fails for non-Hermitian systems, by analyzing non-Hermitian continuous Hamiltonians with an imaginary momentum and Landau-type vector potential. The eigenstates, which we call ``continuum Landau modes'' (CLMs), have gaussian spatial envelopes and form a continuum filling the complex energy plane. We present experimentally-realizable 1D and 2D lattice models that can be used to study CLMs; the lattice eigenstates are localized and have other features that are the same as in the continuous model. One of these lattices can serve as a rainbow trap, whereby the response to an excitation is concentrated at a position proportional to the frequency. Another lattice can act a wave funnel, concentrating an input excitation onto a boundary over a wide frequency bandwidth. Unlike recent funneling schemes based on the non-Hermitian skin effect, this requires only a simple lattice design without nonreciprocal couplings.

description: Introduction : La synchronisation patient-ventilateur au cours d’une ventilation mécanique (VM) invasive en mode spontané avec un système de trigger inspiratoire et expiratoire pneumatique n’est pas optimale. Elle induit des effets délétères qui péjorent le pronostic vital et prolonge la durée de VM et du séjour d’hospitalisation. Une assistance ventilatoire mécanique basée sur un système neural (NAVA) semble pouvoir théoriquement améliorer cette synchronisation. Objectif : Cette revue a pour objectif d’évaluer l’impact sur la synchronisation patientventilateur, d’une VM en mode spontané avec un système de trigger inspiratoire et expiratoire neural, en comparaison à un mode spontané avec un système pneumatique. Méthodologie : La recherche documentaire a été effectuée entre septembre 2011 et janvier 2012 sur les bases de données PubMed, CINAHL, The Cochrane Library, Web Of Science et PEDro à l’aide de mots-clés. Puis, les études ont été sélectionnées suivant des critères d’inclusion et d’exclusion successivement par titre, résumé puis texte intégral. Résultats : Quatre études ont été incluses. La synchronisation des triggers inspiratoire et expiratoire tend à être améliorée lors de l’utilisation d’un système neural en comparaison d’un système pneumatique. Conclusion : Malgré peu d’études sur cette nouvelle technologie, les résultats de cette revue semblent tendre vers une amélioration de la synchronisation patient-ventilateur lors du déclenchement et du cyclage de l’assistance ventilatoire. De futures recherches sont néanmoins nécessaires pour renforcer les résultats de cette revue et évaluer les effets à long terme.

description: Despite urbanisation being one of the main drivers of habitat destruction and biodiversity loss, home gardens can provide habitat for a wide range of species. Here we report the results of a leafhopper survey in 12 gardens in four European countries (Germany, Serbia, Austria and Bulgaria). Sampling was conducted in a semi-standardised way across the summer 2020. In total, 143 Auchenorrhyncha species with 2,361 adult specimens were recorded, including several red-listed species. The number of species per garden varied between 9 and 58. On average, around 26 species were found. Leafhopper diversity was positively influenced by garden area, age, plant diversity, extensive management and the cover of forests and parks in the surroundings, but also by the number of sampling dates. We conclude that extensively managed home gardens across Europe can support diverse communities of leafhoppers which is crucial in times of severe insect declines.

description: MagAO is the new adaptive optics system with visible-light and infrared science cameras, located on the 6.5-m Magellan "Clay" telescope at Las Campanas Observatory, Chile. The instrument locks on natural guide stars (NGS) from 0$^\mathrm{th}$ to 16$^\mathrm{th}$ $R$-band magnitude, measures turbulence with a modulating pyramid wavefront sensor binnable from 28x28 to 7x7 subapertures, and uses a 585-actuator adaptive secondary mirror (ASM) to provide flat wavefronts to the two science cameras. MagAO is a mutated clone of the similar AO systems at the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT) at Mt. Graham, Arizona. The high-level AO loop controls up to 378 modes and operates at frame rates up to 1000 Hz. The instrument has two science cameras: VisAO operating from 0.5-1 $μ$m and Clio2 operating from 1-5 $μ$m. MagAO was installed in 2012 and successfully completed two commissioning runs in 2012-2013. In April 2014 we had our first science run that was open to the general Magellan community. Observers from Arizona, Carnegie, Australia, Harvard, MIT, Michigan, and Chile took observations in collaboration with the MagAO instrument team. Here we describe the MagAO instrument, describe our on-sky performance, and report our status as of summer 2014.

description: Functional analysis of the left atrium (LA) plays an increasingly important role in the prognosis and diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases. Echocardiography-based measurements of LA dimensions and strains are useful biomarkers, but they provide an incomplete picture of atrial deformations. High-resolution dynamic magnetic resonance images (Cine MRI) offer the opportunity to examine LA motion and deformation in 3D, at higher spatial resolution and with full LA coverage. However, there are no dedicated tools to automatically characterise LA motion in 3D. Thus, we propose a tool that automatically segments the LA and extracts the displacement fields across the cardiac cycle. The pipeline is able to accurately track the LA wall across the cardiac cycle with an average Hausdorff distance of $2.51 \pm 1.3~mm$ and Dice score of $0.96 \pm 0.02$.

description: Introduction : La sclérose en plaques (SEP), comme les autres maladies chroniques, bouleverse la vie des personnes atteintes. Ces dernières sont contraintes de s'adapter à leur nouvelle situation en développant des stratégies de coping, c'est-à-dire des moyens de faire face à leur maladie. La façon dont une personne s'adapte à sa maladie a une influence son attitude face à la réhabilitation. Objectif : Identifier les stratégies de coping des personnes atteintes de SEP. Méthode : Revue de la littérature qualitative, analyse des données par synthèse thématique. Résultats : L'analyse des résultats de six études qualitatives a permis d'identifier cinq tendances de coping dans lesquelles se répartissent les stratégies mentionnées par les patients eux-mêmes. Ces cinq thèmes sont intitulés prendre les choses en main, redéfinir son mode de vie, minimiser l'intrusion de la SEP, intégrer la SEP dans sa vie et entrer en relation avec autrui. La combinaison de stratégies utilisées par ces personnes évolue dans le temps et comprend des stratégies reflétant les différentes tendances. Discussion : Les deux premiers thèmes regroupent des stratégies destinées à gérer les aspects concrets de la SEP, tandis que les trois autres visent à gérer la maladie dans son ensemble. Conclusion : La prise de conscience par les professionnels de la santé de ce processus de coping ainsi que des stratégies permet d'optimiser la prise en charge des personnes atteintes de SEP.
Pathophysiology and Reversibility of Prolonged Knee Joint Immobilization: A Comprehensive Temporal Investigation Using an Animal Model

description: The knee joint is a diarthrodial joint that rotates in the flexion-extension axis to provide individuals mobility. A limitation in the passive range of motion (ROM) is detrimental for function and this limitation is termed a joint contracture. A commonly shared characteristic between conditions that lead to contracture formation is prolonged periods of immobilization. However, the etiology of immobility-induced joint contractures is not well described and requires quantitative data on anatomical structures limiting knee mobility to design new interventions aimed at restoring function. In turn, our research group has developed an experimental animal model to study the temporal pathophysiology of knee immobilization and reversibility through unassisted remobilization. With durations of immobilization ranging from 1 to 32 weeks and remobilization up to 48 weeks, our experimental design provides a comprehensive temporal overview on the various stages of contracture formation: initiation, progression, and severity. A combination of muscles and articular structures are involved in the pathophysiology of knee flexion contractures, but the posterior joint capsule is of particular interest. Through histomorphological analysis, we provided quantitative data on the contribution of the reduced posterior capsule length in the limitation of knee extension and increased joint stiffness. Moreover, elucidation of synoviocyte profiles within the synovium of the capsule provided insights to potential mechanisms of capsule shortening. Our novel measurable outcome of mechanical joint stiffness revealed distinct temporal differences with ROM measurements after joint immobilization and remobilization, suggesting that alterations in the biomechanical properties of articular tissue structures are also contributing to the limitation in function. Malleability of the dynamic reciprocal relationship between trabecular bone loss and accumulation of marrow adipose tissue (predominately through adipocyte hyperplasia) after knee immobilization underscores the sensitivity of the bone marrow microenvironment in response to mechanical stimuli and lack thereof. Remobilization of the knee joint is limited in its capacity to reverse detriments induced by extended periods of joint immobilization. Findings from this work point to the temporal changes detected in different musculoskeletal tissues during knee immobilization and emphasizes the contribution of the joint capsule in limiting joint mobility.

description: Code clones can detrimentally impact software maintenance and manually detecting them in very large codebases is impractical. Additionally, automated approaches find detection of Type 3 and Type 4 (inexact) clones very challenging. While the most recent artificial deep neural networks (for example BERT-based artificial neural networks) seem to be highly effective in detecting such clones, their pairwise comparison of every code pair in the target system(s) is inefficient and scales poorly on large codebases. We therefore introduce SSCD, a BERT-based clone detection approach that targets high recall of Type 3 and Type 4 clones at scale (in line with our industrial partner's requirements). It does so by computing a representative embedding for each code fragment and finding similar fragments using a nearest neighbour search. SSCD thus avoids the pairwise-comparison bottleneck of other Neural Network approaches while also using parallel, GPU-accelerated search to tackle scalability. This paper details the approach and an empirical assessment towards configuring and evaluating that approach in industrial setting. The configuration analysis suggests that shorter input lengths and text-only based neural network models demonstrate better efficiency in SSCD, while only slightly decreasing effectiveness. The evaluation results suggest that SSCD is more effective than state-of-the-art approaches like SAGA and SourcererCC. It is also highly efficient: in its optimal setting, SSCD effectively locates clones in the entire 320 million LOC BigCloneBench (a standard clone detection benchmark) in just under three hours.

description: Introduction : De récentes études scientifiques ont prouvé l’efficacité de l’hypnose notamment pour la gestion des douleurs. Cependant elle est encore peu répandue dans les services hospitaliers en Suisse Romande. Les représentations sociales, façons personnelles de se représenter et d’interpréter le monde orientent le comportement humain. Concernant l’hypnose, elles jouent un rôle central dans les attitudes du patient et du thérapeute face à l’acceptation du phénomène. Objectif : Identifier les représentations sociales des soignants et de la population générale à propos de l’hypnose. Méthode : Revue qualitative de la littérature par analyse thématique des questionnaires utilisés pour interroger les représentations. Résultats : L’analyse des questionnaires de 5 études a permis d’identifier 6 représentations face au phénomène hypnotique. Elles définissent l’hypnose comme contrôlée, menaçante, fantastique, révélatrice, légitime en médecine et l’hypnotisabilité comme critérielle. Discussion : Ces représentations influencent l’acceptation de l’hypnose dans les soins de manière positive ou négative. Elles sont véhiculées par différents vecteurs tels que les médias, les valeurs sociales et culturelles et l’histoire même de l’hypnose. Il est important que le thérapeute explore les croyances du patient face à l’hypnose mais aussi celles qui lui sont propres. Conclusion : Il y a dans toutes ces représentations, la notion de prise ou de perte de contrôle engendrant un déséquilibre dans la relation thérapeutique. La connaissance de celles-ci permettrait d’adopter des stratégies afin d’améliorer l’acceptation de l’hypnose dans les soins.

description: Introduction : Les douleurs persistantes sont un phénomène préoccupant dû à leur prévalence et aux conséquences qu’elles impliquent. Celles touchant le système musculo-squelettique sont les plus répandues. Les approches multidimensionnelles sont recommandées dans leur prise en charge et la relaxation thérapeutique en fait souvent partie. La relaxation progressive et ses versions dérivées sont les plus représentées dans la littérature. Cependant, les preuves ne sont pas claires et son rôle précis dans la gestion de la douleur est incertain. But : Réaliser une Revue Systématique (RS) évaluant les effets de la Relaxation Musculaire Progressive (RMP), sur une population souffrant de douleurs musculo-squelettiques persistantes. Méthodologie : Les bases de données consultées sont : PubMed, CINHAL, PEDro et PsychINFO. Notre recherche s’est faite en plusieurs étapes et nous a permis de sélectionner cinq articles. Résultats : Les données intra-groupes de quatre des cinq études ont montré une diminution statistiquement significative sur l’intensité douloureuse. Deux études sur cinq mentionnent une efficacité plus importante que le groupe contrôle. Concernant la médication, deux études démontrent une amélioration significative et une seule rapporte que la RMP est plus efficace que le groupe contrôle. Conclusion : Notre travail a permis d’éclaircir les effets de la RMP sur la douleur persistante musculo-squelettique mais des preuves sont nécessaires pour prouver son efficacité.

description: Introduction : L’implémentation des guidelines dans la pratique des physiothérapeutes est un élément problématique, dont l’un des principaux enjeux est l’amélioration de la qualité des soins. La littérature relève plusieurs éléments pouvant entraver le processus d’implémentation. L’objectif de ce travail est d’identifier quels sont les obstacles à l’implémentation des guidelines dans la pratique des physiothérapeutes. Méthodologie : Afin de répondre à l’objectif du travail, une revue systématique de la littérature a été réalisée. Elle est basée sur des critères d’inclusion et d’exclusion explicitement décrits. La méthodologie qualitative utilisée est la synthèse thématique. Elle consiste à extraire, coder, classer et catégoriser les résultats (obstacles). Résultats : Suite au processus d’extraction des données des six articles sélectionnés, 15 "thématiques" entravant l’implémentation (utilisation) des guidelines sont apparues. Ces principales "thématiques" concernent notamment des aspects spécifiques aux physiothérapeutes, aux guidelines, à l’organisation et la politique, à l’environnement, aux patients ainsi qu’à l’écart entre la théorie et la pratique. Discussion et conclusions : Les éléments principaux de la discussion font ressortir que les physiothérapeutes et certaines spécificités des guidelines jouent un rôle central dans l’implémentation des guidelines. Par exemple, leurs avis et expériences en défaveur des guidelines doivent pouvoir devenir des facilitateurs à l’utilisation de ces mêmes guidelines. La recherche de l’amélioration de la qualité des soins doit être réfléchie à chaque étape ainsi qu’en fonction du contexte dans lequel le processus d’implémentation prend place. Cela implique notamment les chercheurs, les investigateurs-cliniciens, les praticiens et les politiciens.

description: One of the primary goals of exoplanet science is to find and characterize habitable planets, and direct imaging will play a key role in this effort. Though imaging a true Earth analog is likely out of reach from the ground, the coming generation of giant telescopes will find and characterize many planets in and near the habitable zones (HZs) of nearby stars. Radial velocity and transit searches indicate that such planets are common, but imaging them will require achieving extreme contrasts at very small angular separations, posing many challenges for adaptive optics (AO) system design. Giant planets in the HZ may even be within reach with the latest generation of high-contrast imagers for a handful of very nearby stars. Here we will review the definition of the HZ, and the characteristics of detectable planets there. We then review some of the ways that direct imaging in the HZ will be different from the typical exoplanet imaging survey today. Finally, we present preliminary results from our observations of the HZ of α Centauri A with the Magellan AO system's VisAO and Clio2 cameras.

description: The magnetic moments of the low lying, negative parity, spin-3/2 baryons are calculated within the light cone QCD sum rules method. The contributions coming from the positive parity, spin-3/2 baryons, as well as from the positive and negative parity spin-1/2 baryons are eliminated by constructing combinations of various invariant amplitudes corresponding to the coefficients of the different Lorentz structures.

Energy-dependent resonance broadening in symmetric and asymmetric molecular junctions from an ab initio non-equilibrium Green's function approach

description: The electronic structure of organic-inorganic interfaces often feature resonances originating from discrete molecular orbitals coupled to continuum lead states. An example are molecular junctions, individual molecules bridging electrodes, where the shape and peak energy of such resonances dictate junction conductance, thermopower, I-V characteristics and related transport properties. In molecular junctions where off-resonance coherent tunneling dominates transport, resonance peaks in the transmission function are often assumed to be Lorentzian functions with an energy-independent broadening parameter $Γ$. Here we define a new energy-dependent resonance broadening function, $Γ(E)$, based on diagonalization of non-Hermitian matrices, which can describe resonances of a more complex, non-Lorentzian nature and can be decomposed into components associated with the left and right lead, respectively. We compute this quantity via an \emph{ab initio} non-equilibrium Green's function approach based on density functional theory for both symmetric and asymmetric molecular junctions, and show that our definition of $Γ(E)$, when combined with Breit-Wigner formula, reproduces the transmission calculated from DFT-NEGF. Through a series of examples, we illustrate how this approach can shed new light on experiments and understanding of junction transport properties in terms of molecular orbitals.
