description: Background: With emerging opportunities for preventing human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) transmission, it remains important to identify those at greatest risk of infection and to describe and understand the contexts in which transmissions occur. Some gay and bisexual men with recently diagnosed HIV infection are initially unable to identify high-risk behaviors that would explain their HIV infection. We explored whether Web-based data collection could assist them in identifying the circumstances of their infection. Objective: To assess the capacity of a Web-based survey to collect reliable self-report data on the event to which gay and bisexual men ascribe their HIV infection. Methods: The HIV Seroconversion Study included a Web-based survey of gay and bisexual men with recently diagnosed HIV infection in Australia. Participants were asked if they could identify and describe the event they believe led to their infection. Men were also asked about their sexual and other risk practices during the 6 months before their diagnosis. Results: Most (403/506, 79.6%) gay and bisexual men with newly diagnosed HIV infection were able to identify and describe the circumstances that likely led to their infection. Among those who were initially unable to identify possible exposure events, many could nonetheless provide sensible information that ostensibly explained their seroconversion. Free-text responses allowed men to provide more detailed and contextual information, whereas questions about the totality of their sexual behavior before diagnosis provided opportunities for men to describe their sexual risk behavior in general. Overall, 84.0% indicated having engaged in condomless anal intercourse before their HIV diagnosis, including 71.8% in the receptive position. Conclusions: This study demonstrates the effectiveness of using Internet-based technologies to capture sensitive information about the circumstances in which HIV infection occurs among gay and bisexual men. By providing a range of opportunities for relaying experience, this research reveals some of the complexity in how individuals come to understand and explain their HIV infection. These findings may assist in obtaining detailed sexual history in the clinical setting.

description: Background: Increased apposition of the frontal and parietal bones of the skull during embryogenesis may be a risk factor for the subsequent development of premature skull fusion, or craniosynostosis. Human craniosynostosis is a prevalent, and often serious embryological and neonatal pathology. Other than known mutations in a small number of contributing genes, the aetiology of craniosynostosis is largely unknown. Therefore, the identification of novel genes which contribute to normal skull patterning, morphology and premature suture apposition is imperative, in order to fully understand the genetic regulation of cranial development. Results: Using advanced imaging techniques and quantitative measurement, we show that genetic deletion of the highly-conserved transcription factor Grainyhead-like 3 (Grhl3) in mice (Grhl3 -/- ) leads to decreased skull size, aberrant skull morphology and premature apposition of the coronal sutures during embryogenesis. Furthermore, Grhl3 -/- mice also present with premature collagen deposition and osteoblast alignment at the sutures, and the physical interaction between the developing skull, and outermost covering of the brain (the dura mater), as well as the overlying dermis and subcutaneous tissue, appears compromised in embryos lacking Grhl3. Although Grhl3 -/- mice die at birth, we investigated skull morphology and size in adult animals lacking one Grhl3 allele (heterozygous; Grhl3 /- ), which are viable and fertile. We found that these adult mice also present with a smaller cranial cavity, suggestive of post-natal haploinsufficiency in the context of cranial development. Conclusions: Our findings show that our Grhl3 mice present with increased apposition of the frontal and parietal bones, suggesting that Grhl3 may be involved in the developmental pathogenesis of craniosynostosis.

Managing The Data Ecosystem In Life Sciences Through Bioinformatics

description: Information is key in producing knowledge. We undoubtedly live in time of massive information; particularly in Science, there is an abundance of research published and otherwise disseminated daily. However, volume is not always a positive trend as useful information can be easily lost within the multitudes of similar, but not necessarily relevant, information. Moreover, much of the research produced is hidden behind subscription walls, which severely limit access for the wider audience. This is particularly true in Life Sciences which have become massive in scale through the widespread use of NGS sequencing machines among others. The simultaneous growth of data collection techniques along with data aggregation and mining algorithms provides an unprecedented opportunity for rapid knowledge discovery. Integrated platforms combined with bioinformatics solutions can pave the way towards horizontal studies and novel opportunities. Specifically, the construction of domain-specific platforms can lead to integrated solutions and multiple views of the same issue, by acting as a nexus of knowledge for the particular domain / problem it addresses, and by providing novel opportunities for systematic integration of different data, thus facilitating horizontal studies. In essence, they can a form a framework for Bioinformatics analysis that (a) enables the re-analysis of old data with new methods, (b) facilitates data remixing and data integration for increased resolution and (c) allows for algorithmic and data-driven hypothesis generation.

Year: 2021
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: © 2016 The Author(s). Background: Alternative sequence alignment algorithms yield different results. It is therefore useful to quantify the similarities and differences between alternative alignments of the same sequences. These measurements can identify regions of consensus that are likely to be most informative in downstream analysis. They can also highlight systematic differences between alignments that relate to differences in the alignment algorithms themselves. Results: Here we present a simple method for aligning two alternative multiple sequence alignments to one another and assessing their similarity. Differences are categorised into merges, splits or shifts in one alignment relative to the other. A set of graphical visualisations allow for intuitive interpretation of the data. Conclusions: AlignStat enables the easy one-off online use of MSA similarity comparisons or into R pipelines. The web-tool is available at AlignStat.Science.LaTrobe.edu.au. The R package, readme and example data are available on CRAN and GitHub.com/TS404/AlignStat.
A ‘punição justa’ do vilão: o sentido espiritual da tortura de François Villon

description: Resumo:
Neste artigo, trata-se da narração da tortura de François Villon no exórdio do Testament não como um evento traumático na biografia do poeta, mas como o episódio fundador da enunciação poética dessa obra. Climax das provas sofridas pela personagem do célebre malfeitor, a sua tortura na prisão de Meung pelo bispo Thibaut d’Ossigny é apresentada como a causa da sua morte iminente. Mas a sua subsequente libertação pelo rei Luís XI, alegoricamente interpretada como um sinal da graça divina, desencadeia uma reviravolta na vida interior da personagem. Assim, o seu martírio é retrospectivamente reelaborado como uma punição justa pelos erros cometidos na sua juventude, em particular o roubo ao Colégio de Navarra. Nesse sentido, o Testament não está fraturado em uma parte composta antes e outra depois do colapso físico do poeta na prisão de Meung, mas é unificado pelo seu lugar de enunciação que, dramatizando a angústia da personagem do vilão arrependido diante da morte, ilustra a doutrina cristã do perdão.

Abstract:
In this paper, we discuss the narration of the torture of François Villon in the Testament’s exordium not as a traumatic event in the poet’s biography, but as a founding episode of this work’s poetic enunciation. Climax of the tests undergone by the character of the famous wrongdoer, his torture in Meung’s prison by the Bishop Thibaut d’Ossigny is presented as the cause of his imminent death. But his subsequent release by the King Louis XI, allegorically interpreted as a signal of the divine grace, triggers a turnaround in the character’s inner life. Thus, his martyrdom is retrospectively reviewed as a fair punishment for the wrongs commited in his former life, especially the robbery of the Collège de Navarre. Therefore, the Testament is not divided in two parts composed before and after the physical collapse of the poet in Meung’s prison, but is unified by the enunciation’s point of view which, performing the fright of the repentant villain’s character before death, illustrates the Christian doctrine of forgiveness

Τέλος, στο κείμενο υποστηρίζεται ότι η εξομάλυνση Βελιγραδίου – Πρίστινας ‘πάγωσε’ την τριετία 2017-2020, όπου τότε ξεκίνησαν πάλι οι διαπραγματεύσεις, χωρίς όμως η ΕΕ να είναι μοναδικός διαμεσολαβητής. Τα τελευταία χρόνια η ΕΕ ξεκίνησε εκ νέου προσπάθειες για εξομάλυνση, καθώς υπάρχουν πολλοί παράγοντες που δυσκολεύουν το έργο της. αν και η διαδικασία δεν έχει βρεθεί σε ολοκληρωτικό αδιέξοδο.
Martyrological Torture and the Invention of Empathy: Gallonio’s Treatise
Creators: name: Touber, Jetze
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi RomaTre
Year: 2014

description: The Treatise of the Instruments of Martyrdom (Italian version 1591, Latin version 1594), published by the Oratorian priest Antonio Gallonio (1556-1605), textually and graphically conveys the hundreds of ways in which persecutors tormented martyrs. It constitutes a clinical and, above all, technical reconstruction of machines used to torture Christians. Yet it was not the horror of blood and gore, nor the pleasure of pain, which Gallonio aimed to impress upon the readership. The underlying message was rather the victory of the impassive faith in God over the ingenuity and inventiveness of engineers. This martyrological machine theatre, however, lost its efficacy as subsequent generations put the work to their own use in the course of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Gallonio’s mechanistic imagery was appropriated by art theorists. Meanwhile, his antiquarian scholarship fed into the juridical and historical fortification of the edifice of the Church. Gallonio’s treatise became a sterile reconstruction of juridical torture. To early Enlightenment thinkers, including Pierre Bayle (1646-1706), the work came to exemplify the cruelty that the Church of Rome seemed to exalt. The legalistic antiquarianism which appropriated Gallonio’s scholarship around 1700 offended a new sensitivity which shunned salvific violence: from a spiritual exercise the treatise became an aesthetic aberration.

description: Introduction: The increased use of long-acting reversible contraceptives (LARCs), such as intrauterine devices and hormonal implants, has the potential to reduce unintended pregnancy and abortion rates. However, use of LARCs in Australia is very low, despite clinical practice guidance and statements by national and international peak bodies advocating their increased use. This protocol paper describes the Australian Contraceptive ChOice pRojet (ACCORd), a cluster randomised control trial that aims to test whether an educational intervention targeting general practitioners (GPs) and establishing a rapid referral service are a cost-effective means of increasing LARC uptake. Methods and analysis: The ACCORd intervention is adapted from the successful US Contraceptive CHOICE study and involves training GPs to provide LARC First' structured contraceptive counselling to women seeking contraception, and implementing rapid referral pathways for LARC insertion. Letters of invitation will be sent to 600 GPs in South-Eastern Melbourne. Using randomisation stratified by whether the GP inserts LARCs or not, a total of 54 groups will be allocated to the intervention (online LARC First' training and rapid referral pathways) or control arm (usual care). We aim to recruit 729 women from each arm. The primary outcome will be the number of LARCs inserted; secondary outcomes include the women's choice of contraceptive method and quality of life (Short Form Health Survey, SF-36). The costs and outcomes of the intervention and control will be compared in a cost-effectiveness analysis.

O culto do touro em Portugal é de longa tradição, como um conjunto de documentos do século XVIII, tanto administrativos como memórias literárias, também atesta. A sua popularidade é abundantemente corroborada, com todos os sectores da sociedade a disputar lugar na assistência para usufruir de um programa completo, que se distribuía por vários dias, ligado frequentemente a uma ocasião notável. Desse programa constavam: música, danças, carros de triunfo, combate de touros e diversos divertimentos taurinos. Infere-se o fausto dos figurinos, a imponência dos carros, o colosso das máquinas. A isto adiciona-se a morte de mais de uma vintena de touros por tarde, à espada, ao rojão, à faca. Entre a facécia e o sangue, o público exulta, participando na representação de uma sociedade histriónica e saciada.

Abstract:
The bull’s endorsement in Portugal has a long tradition, as underlined by a collection of administrative documents and literary memories from the eighteenth century. The popularity of this kind of entertainment is well-attested, since everyone readily disputed a good seat for a complete program of several days, frequently associated with a solemnity. There, the public could find a good array of music, dance, allegoric cars, bull fight and other bull distractions. One can easily infer the luxury of the garments, the majesty of the cars and the gigantic proportion of the machinery. To this, it must be added the killing of more than twenty bulls for afternoon, with the sword, rojão and knife. Between laugh and blood, the public exults, giving rise to the representation of a joyful and totally indulged society.

description: Many researchers expect mobile advertising to be the killer application in mobile business. In this paper, we introduce a trajectory prediction algorithm called personal destination pattern analysis (P-DPA) to analyse the different destinations in various trajectories of an individual, and to predict a trajectory or a set of destinations that could be visited by that individual. The P-DPA algorithm works on an individual level. Every destination-pattern analysis is related to the self-history and the personal profile of a targeted individual, not on what others do. In addition, we developed a prototype system called SmartShopper. SmartShopper is a personal destination-pattern-aware pervasive system for mobile advertising in (outdoor and indoor) retail environments. The predicted destinations from the P-DPA algorithm will be used by SmartShopper to generate a list of relevant advertisements adapted to the personal profile of previous destinations of a targeted individual. We tested the destination prediction accuracy of the P-DPA algorithm with a synthetic dataset of a virtual mall and a real GPS dataset.

Έπειτα, γίνεται αναφορά στις ενέργειες και τις αποφάσεις της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης και των Ηνωμένων Πολιτειών Αμερικής για τον περιορισμό των επιπτώσεων που θα μπορούσε να έχει αυτός ο πόλεμος σε γειτονικές χώρες. Ωστόσο, πέρα από την ΕΕ και τις ΗΠΑ, χώρες των Δυτικών Βαλκανίων -όπως η Σερβία, το Μαυροβούνιο και η Βοσνία Ερζεγοβίνη- αντέδρασαν με διάφορους τρόπους στη ρωσική εισβολή, καθώς η καθεμία από αυτές προσέβλεπε στο να κερδίσει κάτι διαφορετικό. Τέλος, η εργασία αναφέρεται αναλυτικά στην επίδραση που άσκησε ο πόλεμος στην Ουκρανία, στις τρεις παραπάνω χώρες των Δυτικών Βαλκανίων, αν σκεφτούμε τις ιστορικές σχέσεις τους και τη σημαντική επιρροή της Ρωσίας Ομοσπονδίας σε αυτές.
Jean Améry. (Ré)écritures de la torture
Creators: name: De Balsi, Sara

description: Jean Améry, né en Autriche en 1912 sous le nom de Hans Mayer, est arrêté en Belgique en 1943 et torturé en tant que résistant, puis envoyé dans le camp de concentration d’Auschwitz parce que juif. Rescapé au camp, il s’enferme dans un silence de vingt ans avant de publier Par-delà le crime et le châtiment. Essai pour surmonter l’insurmontable, un recueil de cinq essais, dont l’un directement consacré à la torture, dans lesquels l’expérience personnelle se mêle à la spéculation.
Evénement biographique fondamental, marquant son identité d’individu, tandis que l’expérience des camps de concentration fait office d’un «destin collectif», la torture nous semble constituer le noeud central de son oeuvre; en l’envisageant en tant que traumatisme, nous analysons dans un premier temps l’essai qui lui est consacré, dans un deuxième temps sa présence, souvent inattendue, dans ses autres ouvrages, enfin ses conséquences linguistiques sur Mayer-Améry en tant que sujet et sur son oeuvre d’écrivain.

Abstract:
Jean Améry was born in Austria in 1912 under the name of Hans Mayer. Escaped in Belgium, he is arrested in 1943 by the Gestapo, tortured because of his implication in the Resistance and eventually sent to the concentration camp of Auschwitz as a Jew.
He survives the camp and lapses into silence for twenty years; in 1965 he publishes At the Mind’s Limits: Contemplations by a Survivor on Auschwitz and Its Realities, a collection of five essays in which personal experiences mix up with philosophic speculation. One of them is entirely about torture.
A fundamental biographical event, defining his individual identity whereas the concentration camp experience relates to a «collective destiny», torture is the central nub of his work. Interpreting torture as a destructive trauma, firstly I will examine the essay dealing with it, then its often unexpected presence in the other works of the author, finally its linguistic consequences both on Mayer-Améry as an individual and on his writing.

description: In Australia, the majority of people with dementia live in the community with informal care provided by family, commonly a spouse. A diagnosis of dementia is a threat to one’s personhood and is often accompanied by perceptions of future dependency, which will involve the inability to carry out conventional roles and complete everyday tasks including making decisions. Being able to make decisions, however, is part of being a ‘person’ and it is through relationships that personhood is defined and constructed. In face-to-face interviews with seven couples (a carer and person with dementia dyad) and two spouse carers, this study explored why, and how, spouse carers support continued involvement in decision-making for people with dementia. The findings highlight the importance of loving and respectful relationships in the development of strategies to support continued decision-making for people with dementia.
Dire l’indicible pour dire l’homme: la torture dans les récits de Vercors
Creators: name: Conti, Flavia
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi RomaTre
Year: 2014

description: Résumé:
L’écrivain protéiforme Vercors, qui n’est généralement connu que pour avoir publié clandestinement, en 1942, Le Silence de la mer − un livre symbole de la Résistance intellectuelle française − est en réalité l’auteur de bien d’autres récits où les supplices endurés par les Juifs et les Résistants aux cours des ‘années noires’ font l’objet d’une narration fictionnelle témoignant de l’indicible horreur des camps avant même la prise de parole des écrivains censés représenter la ‘littérature concentrationnaire’ de première génération. Vercors dénonce aussi précocement, par son art de narrateur, les tortures perpétrées à l’encontre des civils pendant les ‘années algériennes’, dans le cadre d’un colonialisme désormais agonisant. Cette aptitude à se pencher sur des pans d’histoire trouble et refoulée de la France du XXe siècle se retrouve aujourd’hui chez des romanciers dont les ouvrages incarnent une tendance prononcée de la littérature française actuelle.

Abstract:
The protean writer Vercors, who is mostly known only for having clandestinely published in 1942 Le Silence de la mer [Put Out the Light] – a symbolic book for the French intellectual Resistance – is actually the author of many other stories where the tortures endured by Jews and Resistance members during the ‘Dark Years’ are the subject of a fictional narrative witnessing the unspeakable horror of the concentration camps even before the first-generation of Holocaust writers began to speak. Through his narrative art, Vercors also precociously denounces the acts of torture perpetrated against civilians during the ‘Algerian Years’, in a declining colonial setting. This tendency to focus on blurry and repressed pieces of Twentieth-Century French history can be found today among contemporary novelists whose works mark a significant literary trend in France.

description: Microglia activation is a neuroinflammatory response to parenchymal damage with release of intracellular metabolites, e.g., purines, and signaling molecules from damaged cells. Extracellular purines can elicit Ca2+-mediated microglia activation involving P2X/P2Y receptors with metabotropic (P2Y) and ionotropic (P2X) cell signaling in target cells. Such microglia activation results in increased phagocytic activity, activation of their inflammasome and release of cytokines to sustain neuroinflammatory (so-called M1/M2 polarization). ATP-induced activation of ionotropic P2X4 and P2X7 receptors differentially induces receptor-operated Ca2+ entry (ROCE). Although store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) was identified to modulate ROCE in primary microglia, its existence and role in one of the most common murine microglia cell line, BV2, is unknown. To dissect SOCE from ROCE in BV2 cells, we applied high-resolution multiphoton Ca2+ imaging. After depleting internal Ca2+ stores, SOCE was clearly detectable. High ATP concentrations (1 mM) elicited sustained increases in intracellular [Ca2+]i whereas lower concentrations (≤100 µM) also induced Ca2+ oscillations. These differential responses were assigned to P2X7 and P2X4 activation, respectively. Pharmacologically inhibiting P2Y and P2X responses did not affect SOCE, and in fact, P2Y-responses were barely detectable in BV2 cells. STIM1S content was significantly upregulated by 1 mM ATP. As P2X-mediated Ca2+ oscillations were rare events in single cells, we implemented a high-content screening approach that allows to record Ca2+ signal patterns from a large number of individual cells at lower optical resolution. Using automated classifier analysis, several drugs (minocycline, U73122, U73343, wortmannin, LY294002, AZ10606120) were tested on their profile to act on Ca2+ oscillations (P2X4) and sustained [Ca2+]i increases. We demonstrate specific drug effects on purinergic Ca2+ pathways and provide new pharmacological insights into Ca2+ oscillations in BV2 cells. For example, minocycline inhibits both P2X7- and P2X4-mediated Ca2+-responses, and this may explain its anti-inflammatory action in neuroinflammatory disease. As a technical result, our novel automated bio-screening approach provides a biomedical engineering platform to allow high-content drug library screens to study neuro-inflammation in vitro.

description: Frequently, the covariates in the linear predictors of a zero-inflated Poisson regression model are prone to missingness. When the missing data process is at random, the naive estimator and the inverse probability weighted estimator of the model parameter are known to be biased or less efficient. Hence, we propose four different semiparametric double robust weighting M-estimators of a zero-inflated Poisson model. In particular, these estimators differ in term of the nature and the combination of the nuisance components in the estimating equation. The Nadaraya kernel and the generalized additive models are the two smoothing approaches used to estimate the nuisance parameters in step 1. Each estimator in step 2 is a solution to a specific M-estimating equation which requires two distinct nonparametric nuisance components including the selection probability and the augmentation term. The resulting semiparametric weighted M-estimators are double robust and relatively more efficient than their parametric counterpart and related inverse probability weighted estimators. We examine the performance of the proposed estimators by conducting a simulation study and exploring a road traffic dataset. Overall, the performance of the proposed estimators is satisfactory and potential for various extensions.

description: Italian ryegrass is one of the most important temperate forage grasses on a global basis Improvement of both dry matter yield and quality of herbage have been major objectives of pastur grass breeding over the last century. F1 and F2 progeny sets derived from controlled pair-crosse between selected Italian ryegrass genotypes have been evaluated for yield and nutritive qualit under field conditions. Linear regression of the performance of F1 families under sward condition on parental genotype means in a spaced plant trial was significant for quality characteristics, but no for herbage yield. This result suggests that phenotypic selection of individual plants from space plant nursery is feasible for improvement of nutritive quality traits, but not for yield. The presenc of significant heterosis within F1 populations was demonstrated by reduced herbage productio in subsequent F2 populations (generated by one cycle of full-sib mating), an up to 22.1% tota herbage yield in fresh weight, and a 30.5% survival rate at the end of the second reproductive cycle Potential optimal crosses for exploiting such heterosis are discussed, based on construction an the inter-mating of complementary parental pools, for the implementation of a novel F1 hybri production strategy.

description: Negative “push-back” from a group of first-year undergraduate sociology students during a class discussion of gender and feminism included rejecting personal use of the title Ms. Teaching team members asked themselves: how general is this response among other student groups in the same one-semester subject? A short in-class survey checked personal attitudes towards Ms. that might reflect shifting views towards feminism and gender among contemporary Australian “middle-town” students. Results showed this to be a specific dissenting cluster of students. The survey indicated some generational changes towards using Ms., but responses to Ms. were more complex than lack of student knowledge or interest, part of socio-cultural changes in play for these students and society generally.

description: A single starting component electrochemiluminescence system from which red, green, blue or white emission can be obtained, depending on the applied potential or the mode of the ECL experiment, is described. The convoluted ECL spectral responses observed at different potentials are readily explained using a 3D-ECL technique, where the ECL spectral profile is continuously monitored as a function of potential during voltammetric scanning. The 3D plots obtained using this technique implicate cross-annihilation ECL reactions involving the complex itself and stable products resulting from its electrolysis. Combining this information with knowledge of the energetic requirements of the various reactions involved, suggests a mechanism involving traces of two emissive products, related to the loss of a methyl group from the triazole moiety. These products, while barely detectable electrochemically, are sufficiently emissive to influence and even dominate the ECL emission under some conditions.

description: Résumé:
Plus de cinquante ans s’étant écoulés de la signature des Accords d’Évian, la torture, qui avait déjà soulevé à ce moment-là un débat animé notamment entre les philosophes et les gens de lettres, est désormais devenue le mot clé de la guerre d’Algérie. Dans cette étude, après un aperçu sommaire de la question d’un point de vue juridique et au terme d’une analyse le plus possible objective des événements algériens concernant la torture, on avance l’hypothèse que cette véritable obsession historiographique pour la violence et la repression ne vise, à l’instar de ce qui s’est passé pour le procès à 89 voire pour le syndrome de Vichy, qu’un but polémique: la mise en cause des idéologies progressistes répandues à l’époque, en l’espèce le jacobinisme et le marxisme.

Abstract:
More than fifty years after the Evian Accords, torture - once a matter of heated discussions among philosophers and people of letters - has become a central topic in Algerian War historiography. The present essay suggests that this new obsession with violence and repression by historians is merely motivated by a polemical purpose. Similarly to what happened with the proceedings against 89 and the Vichy syndrome, the current purpose is to raise concerns about the dominant progressive ideologies of the time, namely, Jacobinism and Marxism. In support of this hypothesis, the essay offers an examination of the issue from a juridical perspective, and an analysis of specific torture cases in the context of the Algerian war.
